          INDENTURE, dated as of December 20, 2006, by and among CAPITALSOURCE REAL ESTATE LOAN TRUST
2006-A, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”), WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., a national
banking association, as trustee, paying agent, calculation agent, transfer agent, custodial
securities intermediary, backup advancing agent and notes registrar (herein, together with its
permitted successors and assigns in the trusts hereunder, the “Trustee”) and CAPITALSOURCE
FINANCE LLC (“CapitalSource”), a Delaware limited liability company, as advancing agent (herein,
together with its permitted successors and assigns in the trusts hereunder, in such capacity, the
“Advancing Agent”).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

          The Issuer is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture to provide for the Notes
issuable as provided in this Indenture. All covenants and agreements made by the Issuer herein are
for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties. The Issuer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., in its
capacity other than as Trustee, and the Advancing Agent are entering into this Indenture, and the
Trustee is accepting the trusts created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.

          All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Issuer in accordance with
this Indenture’s terms have been done.

GRANTING CLAUSES

          The Issuer hereby Grants to the Trustee, for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties,
all of its right, title and interest in, to and under, in each case, whether now owned or existing,
or hereafter acquired or arising (other than the Retained Interests), (a) the Collateral
Obligations listed in the Schedule of Closing Date Collateral Obligations which the Issuer
purchases on the Closing Date and causes to be delivered to the Trustee (directly or through an
agent or bailee) herewith, all payments thereon or with respect thereto and all Collateral
Obligations which are delivered to the Trustee (directly or through an agent or bailee) after the
Closing Date pursuant to the terms hereof (including the Collateral Obligations listed, as of the
Effective Date, on the Schedule of Closing Date Collateral Obligations delivered by the Issuer
pursuant to Section 7.17 and all payments thereon or with respect thereto), (b) the
Eligible Investments owned by the Issuer, (c) the rights of the Issuer under each Hedge Agreement,
(d) the Collection Accounts, the Payment Account, the Expense Account, the Unused Proceeds Account,
the Delayed Funding Obligations Account, the Class A-1R Suspense Account, each Hedge Counterparty
Collateral Account, and all Eligible Investments purchased with funds on deposit therein, the
Custodial Account and all related security entitlements and all income from the investment of funds
in any of the foregoing, (e) the rights of the Issuer under each Collateral Obligations Purchase
Agreement (including any Collateral Obligations Purchase Agreement entered into after the Closing
Date), the Collateral Management Agreement, the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement, the Servicing
Agreement and any other primary or special servicing agreement related to the Collateral
Obligations, (f) all Cash or Money delivered to the Trustee (or its bailee) in respect of the Notes
or the Assets, (g) all other investment property, accounts, instruments and general intangibles in
which the Issuer has an interest and (h) all proceeds with

 

 

respect to the foregoing clauses (a)-(g). The collateral described in the foregoing clauses
(a)-(h) is referred to as the “Assets.” For the avoidance of doubt, the Assets do not include the
Certificate Distribution Account and any amounts on deposit in the Certificate Distribution
Account, the Liquidity Suspense Account and any amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Suspense
Account and the Future Funding Reserve Account and any amounts on deposit in the Future Funding
Reserve Account. Such Grants are made, however, in trust, to secure the Notes and each Hedge
Agreement, subject to the Priority of Payments, equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or
distinction between any Note and any other Note by reason of difference in time of issuance or
otherwise, except as expressly provided in this Indenture, and to secure (i) the payment of all
amounts due on and in respect of the Notes and each Hedge Agreement in accordance with their terms,
(ii) the payment of all other sums payable under this Indenture and (iii) compliance with the
provisions of this Indenture, all as provided in this Indenture. The foregoing Grant shall, for
the purpose of determining the property subject to the lien of this Indenture (but not for the
purpose of determining compliance with any of the Coverage Tests or compliance by the Issuer with
any of the other provisions hereof), be deemed to include any securities and any investments
granted by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each
Hedge Counterparty, whether or not such securities or such investments satisfy the criteria set
forth in the definitions of “Collateral Obligation” or “Eligible Investment,” as the case may be.

          Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Indenture, this Indenture shall constitute a
security agreement under the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be

the acquisition, construction and improvement of properties. CMBS Large Loan Securities generally
have the following characteristics: (1) the commercial mortgage loans have varying contractual
maturities; (2) the commercial mortgage loans are secured by real property purchased or improved
with the proceeds thereof (or to refinance one or more outstanding loans the proceeds of which were
so used); (3) the commercial mortgage loans are obligations of a relatively limited number of
obligors and accordingly represent a relatively undiversified pool of obligor credit risk; (4)
repayment thereof can vary substantially from the contractual payment schedule (if any), with early
prepayment of individual loans depending on numerous factors specific to the particular obligors
and upon whether, in the case of loans bearing interest at a fixed rate, such loans or securities
include an effective prepayment premium; and (5) the valuation of individual properties securing
the commercial mortgage loans is the primary factor in any decision to invest in those securities.

qualification or withdrawal of any rating of the Notes;

     (ii) with respect to a Loan, if a foreclosure or default (whether or not
declared) with respect to the related commercial mortgage loan has occurred;
provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, a Loan shall not be deemed to

interest on such Loan or on the related commercial mortgage loan on the initial due
date therefor, if the related lender or holder of such Loan or the related
commercial mortgage loan consents to extend the due date when such interest is due
and payable, and such interest is paid on or before such extended due date (provided
that such interest is paid not more than 60 days (or if such interest was previously
paid 60 days after the initial date that it was due as a result of the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager previously consenting to extend such due date, 30 days) after the
initial date that it was due), or (2) the related obligor’s failure to pay principal

such extended maturity date, or (3) the occurrence of any default other than a
payment default with respect to such Loan or the related commercial mortgage loan,
unless and until the earlier of (A) declaration of default and acceleration of the
maturity of the Loan by the lender or holder thereof and (B) the continuance of such
default uncured for 60 days after such default became known to the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager or, subject to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition,
such longer period as the Collateral Manager determines. As used herein, the term
“original maturity date” means the maturity date of a Loan or the related commercial
mortgage loan as extended by all extensions thereof which the related obligor had
the right to elect and did elect under the terms of the instruments and agreements
relating to such Loan or the related commercial mortgage loan, but before taking
into account any additional extensions thereof that are consented to by the lender
or holder of such Loan or the related commercial mortgage loan; and

     (iii) with respect to a CMBS Security (1) as to which there has occurred and is
continuing a principal payment default (without giving effect to any applicable
grace period or waiver) or (2) as to which there is known to the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager a default (other than any payment default) which default entitles
the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity of all or a portion of

- 35 -

 

the principal amount of such obligation; provided, however, in the case of (1)
and (2), if such default is cured or waived then such asset shall no longer be a
Defaulted Security or (3) as to which there is known to the Collateral Manager (A)
any bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding has been initiated in
connection with the issuer of such CMBS Security, or (B) there has been proposed or
effected any distressed exchange or other debt re structuring where the issuer of
such CMBS Security has offered the debt holders a new security or package of
securities that either (x) amounts to a diminished financial obligation or (y) has
the purpose of helping the issuer to avoid default, or (4) that has been rated “CC”,
“D” or “SD” or below by S&P, “CC” or below by Fitch or “Ca” or “C” by Moody’s or (5)
as to which there is known to the Collateral Manager that the issuer thereof is in
default (without giving effect to any applicable grace period or waiver) as to
payment of principal and/or interest on another obligation (and such default has not
been cured or waived) which is senior or pari passu in right of payment to such CMBS
Security, except that a CMBS Security will not constitute a “Defaulted Security”
under this clause (5) if each of the Rating Agencies has confirmed in writing that
such event shall not result in the reduction, qualification or withdrawal of any
rating of the Notes; or (6) (A) as to which there has been a failure to pay interest
in whole or in part for the lesser of (x) six months or (y) three payment periods
(if such CMBS Security is rated (or privately rated for purposes of the issuance of
the Securities) below “Baa3” by Moody’s or “BBB ” by S&P or Fitch); provided,
however, if the Rating Agency Condition for such CMBS Security is satisfied with
respect to S&P and Moody’s, the Collateral Manager may choose not to treat such a
CMBS Security as a Defaulted Security or (B) as to which there has been a failure to
pay interest in whole or in part for the lesser of (x) one year or (y) six
consecutive payment periods (if such CMBS Security is rated (or privately rated for
purposes of the issuance of the Securities) “BBB ” or higher by S&P or Fitch, or
“Baa3” or higher by Moody’s) even if by its terms it provides for the deferral and
capitalization of interest thereon;

provided that any Collateral Obligation which has sustained a write down of principal balance in
accordance with its terms will not necessarily be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to
such write down; provided, further, that for purposes of the Par Value Ratios, any Collateral
Obligation that has sustained an implied reduction of principal balance due to an appraisal
reduction will not necessarily be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to such implied
reduction.

          For purposes of calculating the Par Value Ratio, an appraisal reduction of a Collateral
Obligation will be assumed to result in an implied reduction of principal balance for such
Collateral Obligation only if such appraisal reduction is intended to reduce the interest payable
on such Collateral Obligation and only in proportion to such interest reduction. For purposes of
the Par Value Ratio, any Collateral Obligation that has sustained an implied reduction of principal
balance due to an appraisal reduction will not be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to
such implied reduction. The Collateral Manager will notify the Trustee of any appraisal reductions
of Collateral Obligations if the Collateral Manager has actual knowledge thereof.

- 36 -

 

          For purposes of the definition of “Defaulted Security,” the “Maturity Extension Requirements”

Loans other than ARD Loans, to a new maturity date that is (A) not more than two (2) years after
the original maturity date and (B) not less than ten years prior to the Stated Maturity and (ii) in
the case of ARD Loans, such that (A) the anticipated repayment date will not be less than 20 years

applied.

     (b) All calculations with respect to Scheduled Distributions on the Pledged Obligations
securing the Notes shall be made on the basis of information as to the terms of each such Pledged
Obligation and upon report of payments, if any, received on such Pledged Obligation that are
furnished by or on behalf of the issuer of such Pledged Obligation and, to the extent they are not
manifestly in error, such information or report may be conclusively relied upon in making such
calculations.

     (c) For each Due Period, the Scheduled Distribution on any Pledged Obligation (other than a
Defaulted Security, which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have a
Scheduled Distribution of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and
collections in respect of such Pledged Obligation (including all Sales Proceeds received by the
Trustee during the Due Period and not reinvested in Substitute Collateral Obligations or retained
in the Principal Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment) that, if paid as scheduled, will
be available in the Collection Accounts at the end of such Due Period for payment on the Notes and
of expenses of the Issuer pursuant to the Priority of Payments and (ii) any such amounts received
by the Trustee in prior Due Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Payment Date and do not
constitute amounts which have been used as reimbursement with respect to a prior Interest Advance
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

     (d) With respect to any Collateral Obligation as to which any interest or other payment
thereon is subject to withholding tax of any relevant jurisdiction, each Scheduled Distribution
thereon shall, for purposes of the Coverage Tests and the Collateral Quality Tests, be deemed to be
payable net of such withholding tax unless the issuer thereof or obligor thereon is required to
make additional payments to fully compensate the Issuer for such withholding taxes (including in
respect of any such additional payments). On any date of determination, the

 - 97 - 

 

amount of any Scheduled Distribution due on any future date shall be assumed to be made net of
any such uncompensated withholding tax based upon withholding tax rates in effect on such date of
determination.

     (e) For purposes of calculating any Interest Coverage Ratio, the expected interest income on
floating rate Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments and under each Hedge Agreement and
the expected interest payable on the Notes and, in the case of the Class A-1R Notes, the Class A-1R
Commitment Fee, shall be calculated using (i) the interest rates applicable thereto on the
applicable Measurement Date and (ii) accrued original issue discount on Eligible Investments shall
be deemed to be Scheduled Distributions of interest due on the date such original issue discount is
scheduled to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the purposes of calculating any Interest
Coverage Ratio, there shall be excluded all scheduled or deferred payments of interest on or
principal of Collateral Obligations and any payment, including any amount payable to the Issuer by
each Hedge Counterparty, which the Collateral Manager has determined in its reasonable judgment
shall not be made in Cash or received when due.

     (f) Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to a Pledged Obligation shall be
assumed to be received on the applicable Due Date, and each such Scheduled Distribution shall be
assumed to be immediately deposited in the applicable Collection Account except (i) to the extent
the applicable Due Date with respect to a Pledged Obligation has occurred and the related Scheduled
Distribution has not been received or (ii) to the extent the Collateral Manager has a reasonable
expectation that such Scheduled Distribution will not be received on the applicable Due Date. All
such funds shall be assumed to continue to earn interest until the date on which they are required
to be available in the applicable Collection Account for transfer to the Payment Account for
application, in accordance with the terms hereof, to payments of principal of or interest on the
Notes and, in the case of the Class A-1R Notes, the Class A-1R Commitment Fee, or other amounts
payable pursuant to this Indenture.

     (g) All calculations required to be made and all reports which are to be prepared pursuant to
this Indenture with respect to the Pledged Obligations, shall be made on the basis of the date on
which the Issuer makes a commitment to purchase or sell an asset (the “trade date”), not
the settlement date.

     (h) For purposes of calculating the Par Value Ratio, an appraisal reduction of a Collateral
Obligation will be assumed to result in an implied reduction of Principal Balance for such
Collateral Obligation only if such appraisal reduction is intended to reduce the interest payable
on such Collateral Obligation and only in proportion to such interest reduction. For purposes of
the Par Value Ratio, any Collateral Obligation that has sustained an implied reduction of Principal
Balance due to an appraisal reduction will not be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to
such implied reduction. The Collateral Manager will notify the Trustee of any appraisal reductions
of Collateral Obligations if the Collateral Manager has actual knowledge thereof.

     (i) For purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Coupon in respect of Fixed Rate
Securities that are subject to any servicing agreement, the current interest rates in respect of
such Fixed Rate Securities shall be adjusted to reflect the amount of interest withheld

 - 98 - 

 

by or on behalf of the related servicer in respect of such Fixed Rate Securities as a part of
its Servicing Fee. For purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Spread in respect of Floating
Rate Securities that are subject to any servicing agreement, the stated spreads above LIBOR in
respect of such Floating Rate Securities shall be adjusted to reflect the amount of interest
withheld by or on behalf of the related servicer in respect of such Floating Rate Securities as a
part of its Servicing Fee.

     Section 1.3. Interest Calculation Convention.

     All calculations of interest and fees (other than the Class A-1R Commitment Fees) hereunder
that are made with respect to the Notes shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days
during the related Interest Accrual Period divided by 360.

     Section 1.4. Rounding Convention.

     Unless otherwise specified herein, test calculations that evaluate to a percentage will be
rounded to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point and test calculations that evaluate to a
number or decimal will be rounded to 2 decimal places.

     Section 1.5. Servicing Override

     For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of any action required or permitted to be taken by the
Collateral Manager hereunder, any such action shall be subject to override by the applicable
servicer to the extent set forth in the Collateral Management Agreement and any Servicing
Agreement.

and the Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Issuer or the
Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee, or any agent of the Issuer or
the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization
furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Global

multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof (plus any residual amount).

     Section 2.4. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

     The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by any of its Authorized Officers. The
signature of any such Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile.

     Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the
Authorized Officers of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer notwithstanding the fact that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and
delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of issuance of such Notes.

     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the
Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for
authentication and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, upon Issuer Order, shall authenticate
and deliver such Notes as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.

     Each Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon Issuer
Order on the Closing Date shall be dated as of the Closing Date. All other Notes that are
authenticated after the Closing Date for any other purpose under this Indenture shall be dated the
date of their authentication.

 - 102 - 

 

     Notes issued upon transfer, exchange or replacement of other Notes shall be issued in
authorized denominations reflecting the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes so
transferred, exchanged or replaced, but shall represent only the current outstanding principal
amount of the Notes so transferred, exchanged or replaced. In the event that any Note is divided
into more than one Note in accordance with this Article 2, the original principal amount of
such Note shall be proportionately divided among the Notes delivered in exchange therefor and shall
be deemed to be the original aggregate principal amount of such subsequently issued Notes.

     No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for
any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a Certificate of Authentication, substantially in
the form provided for herein, executed by the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the manual
signature of one of their Authorized Officers, and such certificate upon any Note shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and
delivered hereunder.

     Section 2.5. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     (a) The Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the “Notes Register”) in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the
registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of Notes. The Trustee is hereby initially
appointed “Notes Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of such Notes with
respect to any duplicate copy of the Notes Register kept in the United States as herein provided.
Upon any resignation or removal of the Notes Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a
successor or, in the absence of such appointment, assume the duties of Notes Registrar.

     If a Person other than the Trustee is appointed by the Issuer as Notes Registrar, the Issuer
shall give the Trustee prompt written notice of the appointment of a successor Notes Registrar and
of the location, and any change in the location, of the Notes Registrar, and the Trustee shall have
the right to inspect the Notes Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof and
the Trustee shall have the right to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Notes
Registrar by an Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders and the principal
amounts and numbers of such Notes.

     Subject to this Section 2.5, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Notes
at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2, the
Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like
aggregate principal amount.

     At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for Notes of like terms, in any authorized
denominations and of like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged
at such office or agency. Whenever any Note is surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Noteholder making the exchange
is entitled to receive.

 - 103 - 

 

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

     Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer
and the Notes Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing.

     No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

     None of the Notes Registrar or the Issuer shall be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15)
days before any selection of Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of
the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange
any Note so selected for redemption.

     (b) No Note may be sold or transferred (including, without limitation, by pledge or
hypothecation) unless such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and is exempt from the registration requirements under applicable state securities
laws.

     (c) No Note may be offered, sold, resold or delivered, within the United States or to, or for
the benefit of, U.S. Persons except in accordance with Section 2.5(e) below and in
accordance with Rule 144A to QIBs who are Qualified Purchasers purchasing for their own account or
for the accounts of one or more QIBs who are Qualified Purchasers, for which the purchaser is
acting as fiduciary or agent. The Notes may be offered, sold, resold or delivered, as the case may
be, in offshore transactions to non-U.S. Persons who are Qualified Purchasers in reliance on
Regulation S. None of the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person may register the Notes under the
Securities Act or any state securities laws.

     (d) Upon final payment due on the Stated Maturity of a Note, the Holder thereof shall present
and surrender such Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office of the Paying
Agent (outside the United States if then required by applicable law in the case of a Note in
definitive form issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security
pursuant to Section 2.10).

     (e) Transfers of Global Securities. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
herein, so long as a Global Security remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the
Depository, transfers of a Global Security, in whole or in part, shall only be made in accordance
with Section 2.2(c) and this Section 2.5(e).

     (i) Subject to clauses (ii) through (v) of this Section 2.5(e),
transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to transfers of such Global Security
in whole,

 - 104 - 

 

but not in part, to nominees of the Depository or to a successor of the
Depository or such successor’s nominee.

     (ii) Regulation S Global Security to Rule 144A Global Security. If a
holder of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security wishes to transfer
all or a part of its interest in such Regulation S Global Security to a Person who
wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Rule 144A Global Security, such
holder may, subject to the terms hereof and the rules and procedures of Euroclear,
Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as the case may be, exchange or cause the
exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Rule 144A
Global Security of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Notes Registrar,
of (A) instructions from Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as
the case may be, directing the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, to cause such Rule 144A
Global Security to be increased by an amount equal to such beneficial interest in
such Regulation S Global Security but not less than the minimum denomination
applicable to the related Class of Notes, and (B) a certificate substantially in the
form of Exhibit D hereto given by the prospective transferee of such
beneficial interest, and stating, among other things, that such transferee acquiring
such interest in a Rule 144A Global Security is a QIB and a Qualified Purchaser, is
obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144A and in
accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or
any other applicable jurisdiction, then Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the
Trustee, as Notes Registrar, as the case may be, shall approve the instruction at
the Depository to reduce such Regulation S Global Security by the aggregate
principal amount of the interest in such Regulation S Global Security to be
transferred and increase the Rule 144A Global Security specified in such
instructions by an Aggregate Outstanding Amount equal to such reduction in such
principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security.

     (iii) Regulation S Global Security to Regulation S Global Security During
the Distribution Compliance Period. If, during the Distribution Compliance
Period, a holder of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security wishes
to transfer all or a part of its interest in such Regulation S Global Security to a
Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Regulation S Global
Security, such holder may, subject to the terms hereof and the rules and procedures
of Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as the case may be,
exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial
interest in a Regulation S Global Security of the same Class. Upon receipt by the
Trustee, as Notes Registrar, of (A) instructions from Euroclear, Clearstream,
Luxembourg or the Depository, as the case may be, directing the Trustee, as Notes
Registrar, to cause such transfer of beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global
Security and (B) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto
given by the prospective transferee of such beneficial interest, then Euroclear,
Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, as the case may be,
shall approve the instruction at the Depository to credit or cause to be credited to
the account of such Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in a
Regulation S Global Security of the same

 - 105 - 

 

Class having a denomination equal to the amount by which the denomination of
the Regulation S Global Security was reduced upon such transfer.

     (iv) Rule 144A Global Security to Regulation S Global Security. If a
holder of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Security wishes to transfer
all or a part of its interest in such Rule 144A Global Security to a Person who
wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, such
holder may, subject to the terms hereof and the rules and procedures of Euroclear,
Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as the case may be, exchange or cause the
exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Regulation S
Global Security of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Notes Registrar,
of (A) instructions from Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as
the case may be, directing the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, to cause such Regulation
S Global Security to be increased by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in
such Rule 144A Global Security but not less than the minimum denomination applicable
to the related Class of Notes to be exchanged, and (B) a certificate substantially
in the form of Exhibit C hereto given by the prospective transferee of such
beneficial interest and stating, among other things, that such transferee acquiring
such interest in a Regulation S Global Security is a not a U.S. Person and is a
Qualified Purchaser and that such transfer is being made pursuant to Rule 903 or 904
under Regulation S, then Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Trustee, as Notes
Registrar, as the case may be, shall approve the instruction at the Depository to
reduce such Rule 144A Global Security by the aggregate principal amount of the
interest in such Rule 144A Global Security to be transferred and increase the
Regulation S Global Security specified in such instructions by an Aggregate
Outstanding Amount equal to such reduction in the principal amount of the Rule 144A
Global Security.

     (v) Other Exchanges. (A) In the event that, pursuant to Section
2.10 hereof, a Global Security is exchanged for Certificated Notes, such Notes
may be exchanged for one another only in accordance with such procedures as are
substantially consistent with the provisions above (including certification
requirements intended to ensure that such transfers are to a QIB who is also a
Qualified Purchaser or are to a non-U.S. Person who is also a Qualified Purchaser,
or otherwise comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S, as the case may be) and as may
be from time to time adopted by the Issuer and the Trustee. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no transfer of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security to
a Certificated Note shall be made prior to the expiration of the Distribution
Compliance Period and compliance with the certification requirements of Rule
903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act.

     (B) Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subparagraph
(D) of this Section 2.5(e)(v), a Class J Note or Class K Note
represented by a Certificated Note may be transferred to a QIB in the form
of a Certificated Note upon receipt by the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, of a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 hereto given by
the prospective transferee of such beneficial interest and stating, among
other

 - 106 - 

 

things, that such transferee acquiring such interest in a Certificated
Note is a QIB and a Qualified Purchaser, is obtaining such beneficial
interest in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144A and in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other
applicable jurisdiction. In connection with any such transfer, such
prospective transferee shall be deemed to have made the applicable
representations contained in Section 2.5(g) hereof.

     (C) Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subparagraph
(D) of this Section 2.5(e)(v), a Class J Note or Class K Note
represented by a Certificated Note may be transferred to a Person other than
a U.S. Person in the form of a Certificated Note upon receipt by the
Trustee, as Notes Registrar, of a certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit E-1 hereto given by the prospective transferee of such
beneficial interest and stating, among other things, that such transferee
acquiring such interest in a in a Certificated Note is not a U.S. Person who
is a Qualified Purchaser and that such transfer is being made pursuant to
Rule 903 or 904 under Regulation S. In connection with any such transfer,
such prospective transferee shall be deemed to have made the applicable
representations contained in Section 2.5(g) hereof.

     (D) On the Closing Date, the Trust Depositor will purchase 100% of the
Class J Notes and 100% of the Class K Notes issued on the Closing Date.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, as
long as any Class of Offered Note is Outstanding, the Trust Depositor may
not sell or otherwise transfer any of the Class J Notes or the Class K Notes
to any other person or entity except to its Affiliates or encumber or
finance any portion of the Class J Notes or the Class K Notes to any other
person or entity except to its Affiliates (other than a TRS) unless an
appropriate tax opinion is delivered to the Trustee by a nationally
recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such sale, transfer,
encumbrance or other financing, as of the date thereof, will not result in
the treatment of the Issuer as other than a QRS or other “pass through”
entity for federal income tax purposes.

     (f) Removal of Legend. If Notes are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement
of Notes bearing the applicable legends set forth in Exhibits A and B hereto, and
if a request is made to remove such applicable legend on such Notes, the Notes so issued shall bear
such applicable legend, or such applicable legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless
there is delivered to the Issuer such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of
Counsel of an attorney at law licensed to practice law in the State of New York (and addressed to
the Issuer and the Trustee), as may be reasonably required by the Issuer, if applicable, to the
effect that neither such applicable legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are
required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A or Regulation S,
as applicable, the Investment Company Act or ERISA. So long as the Issuer is relying on an
exemption under or promulgated pursuant to the Investment Company Act, the Issuer shall not remove
that portion of the legend required to maintain an exemption under or promulgated

 - 107 - 

 

pursuant to the Investment Company Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, as
confirmed in writing by the Issuer to the Trustee, the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuer and,
if applicable, shall authenticate and deliver Notes that do not bear such applicable legend.

     (g) Each beneficial owner of Rule 144A Global Securities shall be deemed to represent and
agree as follows (terms used in this paragraph that are defined in Rule 144A and/or Investment
Company Act, as applicable, are used herein as defined therein):

     (i) In the case of a Rule 144A Global Security, the owner is (A) a QIB and a
Qualified Purchaser, (B) is aware that the sale of the Offered Notes to it (other
than the initial sale by the Issuer) is being made in reliance on the exemption from
registration provided by Rule 144A, and (C) is acquiring the Offered Notes for its
own account or for one or more accounts, each of which is a QIB and a Qualified
Purchaser, and as to each of which the owner exercises sole investment discretion,
(D) in a principal amount of not less than $500,000, for each such account.

     (ii) The owner understands that the Offered Notes are being offered only in a
transaction not involving any public offering in the United States within the
meaning of the Securities Act, the Offered Notes have not been and shall not be
registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or “Blue Sky” laws,
and, if in the future the owner decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise
transfer the Offered Notes, such Offered Notes may only be offered, resold, pledged
or otherwise transferred in accordance with this Indenture and the applicable legend
on such Offered Notes set forth in Exhibits A and B, as applicable.
The owner acknowledges that no representation is made by the Issuer or the Dealers,
as the case may be, as to the availability of any exemption under the Securities Act
or any state securities laws for resale of the Notes.

     (iii) The owner is not purchasing the Offered Notes with a view to the resale,
distribution or other disposition thereof in violation of the Securities Act. The
owner understands that an investment in the Offered Notes involves certain risks,
including the risk of loss of all or a substantial part of its investment under
certain circumstances. The owner has had access to such financial and other
information concerning the Issuer and the Offered Notes as it deemed necessary or
appropriate in order to make an informed investment decision with respect to its
purchase of the Offered Notes, including an opportunity to ask questions of and
request information from the Collateral Manager and the Issuer.

     (iv) In connection with the purchase of the Offered Notes (A) none of the
Issuer, the Dealers, the Trust Depositor, the Collateral Manager, the Collateral
Manager Indemnified Parties or the Trustee is acting as a fiduciary or financial or
investment adviser for the owner; (B) the owner is not relying (for purposes of
making any investment decision or otherwise) upon any advice, counsel or
representations (whether written or oral) of the Issuer, the Dealers, the Trust
Depositor, the Collateral Manager or the Trustee other than in a current offering
memorandum for such Offered Notes and any representations expressly set forth

 - 108 - 

 

in a written agreement with such party; (C) none of the Issuer, the Dealers,
the Collateral Manager, the CLO Servicer, the Seller, the Trust Depositor or the
Trustee or any Affiliates has given to the owner (directly or indirectly through any
other person) any assurance, guarantee, or representation whatsoever as to the
expected or projected success, profitability, return, performance, result, effect,
consequence, or benefit (including legal, regulatory, tax, financial, accounting, or
otherwise) of its purchase, (D) the owner has consulted with its own legal,
regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial, and accounting advisers to the
extent it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment decisions
(including decisions regarding the suitability of any transaction pursuant to this
Indenture) based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisers as it
has deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by the Issuer, the Dealers, the
CLO Servicer, the Seller, the Trust Depositor, the Collateral Manager or the Trustee
or any Affiliates; and (E) the owner is purchasing the Offered Notes with a full
understanding of all of the terms, conditions and risks thereof (economic and
otherwise), and is capable of assuming and willing to assume (financially and
otherwise) these risks.

     (v) The owner understands that the Offered Notes shall bear the applicable
legend set forth in Exhibits A and B as applicable. The Rule 144A
Global Securities may not at any time be held by or on behalf of any U.S. Person

transferee of the transfer restrictions.

     (vi) Unless a prospective Noteholder otherwise provides another representation
acceptable to the Trustee, the Collateral Manager and the Issuer, each holder of a
Global Security, by its acquisition thereof, will be deemed to have represented that
either (a) no part of the funds being used to pay the purchase price for such
Offered Notes constitutes an asset of any “employee benefit plan” (as defined as (a)
an employee benefit plan subject to Part 4 of Title I of ERISA; (b) a plan or
arrangement to which Section 4975 of the Code applies; (c) any entity whose
underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of a plan’s investment in such
entity or (d) or any other plan that is subject to applicable law that is
substantively similar to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) (each a “Benefit Plan” and funds of such a Benefit
Plan, “Plan Assets”), or an entity whose underlying assets include Plan Assets of
any such Benefit Plan, or (b) if the funds being used to pay the purchase price for
such Global Securities include Plan Assets of any Benefit Plan, its purchase and
holding are eligible for the exemption to the prohibited transaction rules granted
by Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38,
PTCE 95-60, PTCE 96-23, ERISA Section 408(b)(17) or Code Section 4975(d)(20) or
otherwise will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under
ERISA Section 406 or Code Section 4975, or in the case of any Benefit Plan subject
to Similar Law, do not result in a non-exempt violation of Similar Law.

 - 109 - 

 

     (vii) The owner shall not, at any time, offer to buy or offer to sell the
Offered Notes by any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not
limited to, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in
any newspaper, magazine or similar medium or broadcast over television or radio or
at a seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by general solicitations
or advertising.

     (viii) The owner understands that the Issuer, Trustee or Paying Agent shall
require certification acceptable to it (i) as a condition to the payment of
principal of and interest on any Offered Notes without, U.S. withholding or backup
withholding tax, and (ii) to enable the Issuer, Trustee and Paying Agent to
determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges
that they may be required to pay, deduct or withhold from payments in respect of
such Offered Notes or the Holder of such Offered Notes under any present or future
law or regulation of the United States or any present or future law or regulation of
any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein or to comply with any
reporting or other requirements under any such law or regulation. Such certification
may include U.S. federal income tax forms (such as IRS Form W-8BEN (Certification of
Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner), IRS Form W-8IMY (Certification of Foreign
Intermediary Status), IRS Form W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and
Certification), or IRS Form W-8ECI (Certification of Foreign Person’s Claim for
Exemption from Withholding on Income Effectively Connected with Conduct of a U.S.
Trade or Business) or any successors to such IRS forms). In addition, the Issuer,
Trustee or Paying Agent may require certification acceptable to it to enable the
Issuer to qualify for a reduced rate of withholding in any jurisdiction from or
through which the Issuer receives payments on its assets. Each owner agrees to
provide any certification requested pursuant to this paragraph and to update or
replace such form or certification in accordance with its terms or its subsequent
amendments.

     (ix) The owner hereby agrees that, for purposes of U.S. federal, state and
local income and franchise tax and any other income taxes, (A) the Offered Notes
will be treated as indebtedness, and (B) the Certificate will be treated as equity;
the owner agrees to such treatment and agrees to take no action inconsistent with
such treatment, unless required by law.

     (x) The owner, if not a “United States person” (as defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code), either: (A) is not a bank (within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code); (B) if such owner is a bank (within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code), after giving effect to its purchase of the
Offered Notes, the owner (x) will not own more than 50% of the Certificate (by
number) or 50% by value of the aggregate of the Certificate and all classes of notes
that are treated as equity for US federal income tax purposes either directly or
indirectly, and will not otherwise be related to the Issuer (within the meaning of
section 267(b) of the Code) and (y) has not purchased the Offered Notes in whole or
in part to avoid any U.S. federal income tax liability (including, without
limitation, any U.S. withholding tax that would be imposed on the Offered Notes

 - 110 - 

 

with respect to the Collateral Obligations if held directly by the owner); (C)
if such owner is a bank (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code) has
provided an IRS Form W-8ECI representing that all payments received or to be
received by it from the Issuer are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade
or business in the United States, or (D) if such owner is a bank (within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code) is eligible for benefits under an income tax
treaty with the United States that eliminates U.S. federal income taxation of U.S.
source interest not attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States
and the Issuer is treated as a fiscally transparent entity (as defined in Treasury
regulations section 1.894-1(d)(3)(ii)) under the laws of owner’s jurisdiction with
respect to payments made on the Collateral Obligations held by the owner.

     (h) Each beneficial owner of Regulation S Global Securities shall be deemed to have made the
representations set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix) and (x) of
Section 2.5(g) and shall be deemed to have further represented and agreed as follows:

     (1) The owner (A) is a Qualified Purchaser and (B) is aware that the sale of
such Notes to it is being made in reliance on the exemption from registration
provided by Regulation S and understands that the Notes offered in reliance on
Regulation S will bear the appropriate legend set forth in Exhibit A or
B, as applicable, and be represented by one or more Regulation S Global
Securities. The Notes so represented may not at any time be held by or on behalf of
U.S. Persons or a non-U.S. Person who is not a Qualified Purchaser. Each of the
owner and the related Holder is not, and shall not be, a U.S. Person. Before any
interest in a Regulation S Global Security may be offered, resold, pledged or
otherwise transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of a Rule 144A
Global Security, the transferee shall be required to provide the Trustee with a
written certification substantially in the form of Exhibits C and D
as applicable hereto as to compliance with the transfer restrictions. The owner
must inform a prospective transferee of the transfer restrictions.

     (i) Any purported transfer of a Note not in accordance with this Section 2.5 shall be
null and void and shall not be given effect for any purpose hereunder.

     (j) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, neither the Trustee
nor the Notes Registrar (nor any other Transfer Agent) shall be responsible or liable for
compliance with applicable federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the
Securities Act or Rule 144A or Regulation S promulgated thereunder), the Investment Company Act,
ERISA or the Code (or any applicable regulations thereunder); provided, however, that if a
specified transfer certificate or Opinion of Counsel is required by the express terms of this
Section 2.5 to be delivered to the Trustee or Notes Registrar prior to registration of
transfer of a Note, the Trustee and/or Notes Registrar, as applicable, is required to request, as a
condition for registering the transfer of the Note, such certificate or Opinion of Counsel and to
examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements hereof (and the
Trustee or Notes Registrar, as the case may be, shall promptly

 - 111 - 

 

notify the party delivering the same if it determines that such certificate or Opinion of
Counsel does not so conform).

     (k) If the Trustee is notified by the Issuer or the Collateral Manager that (i) a transfer or
attempted or purported transfer of any interest in any Note was consummated in compliance with the
provisions of this Section 2.5 on the basis of a materially incorrect certification from
the transferee or purported transferee, (ii) a transferee failed to deliver to the Trustee any
certification required to be delivered hereunder or (iii) the holder of any interest in a Note is
in breach of any representation or agreement set forth in any certification or any deemed
representation or agreement of such holder, the Trustee shall not register such attempted or
purported transfer and if a transfer has been registered, such transfer shall be absolutely null
and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee (such purported transferee,
a “Disqualified Transferee”) and the last preceding holder of such interest in such Note
that was not a Disqualified Transferee shall be restored to all rights as a Holder thereof
retroactively to the date of transfer of such Note by such Holder.

     In addition, the Trustee may require that the interest in the Note referred to in (i), (ii) or
(iii) in the preceding paragraph be transferred to any person designated by the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager at a price determined by the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, as applicable,
based upon its estimation of the prevailing price of such interest and each Holder, by acceptance
of an interest in a Note, authorizes the Trustee to take such action. In any case, the Trustee
shall not be held responsible for any losses that may be incurred as a result of any required
transfer under this Section 2.5(k).

     (l) Each Holder of Notes approves and consents to (i) the initial purchase of the Collateral
Obligations by the Issuer from Affiliates of the Collateral Manager on or prior to the Closing Date
and (ii) any other transaction between the Issuer and the Collateral Manager or its Affiliates that
are permitted under the terms of this Indenture or the Collateral Management Agreement.

     (m) Each beneficial owner of Class A-1R Note shall be deemed to have made the representations
set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix) and (x) of Section 2.5(g) and
shall be deemed to have further represented and agreed as follows:

     (1) The owner is one of the following:

     (A) (a) a Qualified Purchaser; (b) a QIB; (c) is aware that the sale of
the Definitive Class A-1R Notes to it is being made in reliance on the
exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; (d) is acquiring the
Definitive Class A-1R Notes for its own account or for one or more accounts,
each of which is a QIB who is a Qualified Purchaser, and as to each of which
the owner exercises sole investment discretion and (e) is acquiring the
Definitive Class A-1R Notes in a minimum principal amount of not less than
U.S.$500,000 for each such account; or

     (B) (a) not a U.S. Person; (b) a Qualified Purchaser; (c) is aware that
the sale of the Definitive Class A-1R Notes to it is being made

 - 112 - 

 

in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S
and (d) understands that the Definitive Class A-1R Notes offered in reliance
on Regulation S under the Securities Act will bear the additional legend set
forth under “—Regulation S Global Notes” above;

and in each case the owner has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
its investment in the Definitive Class A-1R Notes and the owner and any
accounts for which it is acting are each able to bear the economic risk of
the investment.

     (2) Before any interest in a Definitive Class A-1R Note may be offered, resold,
pledged or otherwise transferred, the transferee or transferor shall be required to
provide the Trustee with a written certification substantially in the form provided
in the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement as to compliance with the transfer
restrictions and the owner must inform a prospective transferee of the transfer
restrictions.

     Section 2.6. Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Note.

     If (a) any mutilated or defaced Note is surrendered to a Transfer Agent, or if there shall be
delivered to the Issuer, the Trustee and the relevant Transfer Agent (each a “Specified
Person”) evidence to their reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Note, and (b) there is delivered to the Specified Person such security or indemnity as may be
required by each Specified Person to save each of them and any agent of any of them harmless (an
unsecured indemnity agreement delivered to the Trustee by an institutional investor with a net
worth of at least $200,000,000 being deemed sufficient to satisfy such security or indemnity
requirement), then, in the absence of notice to the Specified Persons that such Note has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and, upon Issuer Request, the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen
Note, a new Note, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal amount,
registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication, bearing interest from the date
to which interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note and
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

     If, after delivery of such new Note, a bona fide purchaser of the predecessor Note presents
for payment, transfer or exchange such predecessor Note, any Specified Person shall be entitled to
recover such new Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, and
each Specified Person shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor
to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by such Specified Person in connection
therewith.

     In case any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become due and
payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note without
requiring surrender thereof except that any mutilated or defaced Note shall be surrendered.

 - 113 - 

 

     Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.6, the Issuer may require the
payment by the registered Holder thereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

     Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in lieu of any mutilated, defaced,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of
the Issuer and such new Note shall be entitled, subject to the second paragraph of this Section
2.6, to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Notes duly issued hereunder.

     The provisions of this Section 2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

     Section 2.7. Payment of Principal and Interest and Class A-1R Commitment Fees and Other
Amounts; Principal and Interest Rights Preserved.

     (a) The Class A-1A Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the
Class A-1A Rate. Interest on each Class A-1A Note shall be due and payable on each Payment Date
immediately following the related Interest Accrual Period in the proportion that the outstanding
principal amount of such Class A-1A Note bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Class
A-1A Notes; provided, however, that the payment of interest on the Class A-1A Notes is subordinated
to the payment on each Payment Date of certain amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

     (b) In accordance with Section 18, the Class A-1R Notes shall accrue interest during
each Interest Accrual Period at the Class A-1R Rate. In addition, the Class A-1R Notes shall
accrue the Class A-1R Commitment Fee in accordance with the definition thereof. Interest will be
payable to the holders of the Class A-1R Notes on each Payment Date, pro rata, based on their Class
A-1R Interest Allocation; provided, however, that the payment of interest on the Class A-1R Notes
is subordinated to the payment on each Payment Date of certain amounts in accordance with the
Priority of Payments.

     (c) The Class A-2A Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the
Class A-2A Rate. Interest on each Class A-2A Note shall be due and payable on each Payment Date
immediately following the related Interest Accrual Period in the proportion that the outstanding
principal amount of such Class A-2A Note bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Class

to the payment on each Payment Date of certain amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

     (d) The Class A-2B Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the

     (e) The Class B Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the Class B
Rate. Interest on each Class B Note shall be due and payable on each Payment Date immediately
following the related Interest Accrual Period in the proportion that the outstanding principal
amount of such Class B Note bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Class B Notes;
provided, however, that payment of interest on the Class B Notes is subordinated to the payment on
each Payment Date of the interest due and payable on the Class A Notes, (including any Class A
Defaulted Interest Amount) and certain other amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

     (f) The Class C Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the Class C
Rate. Interest on each Class C Note shall be due and payable on each Payment Date immediately
following the related Interest Accrual Period in the proportion that the outstanding principal
amount of such Class C Note bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Class C Notes;
provided, however, that payment of interest on the Class C Notes is subordinated to the payment on
each Payment Date of the interest due and payable on the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes
(including any Class A Defaulted Interest Amount and Class B Defaulted Interest Amount) and certain
other amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

     For so long as any Class A Notes or any Class B Notes are Outstanding, any payment of interest
due on the Class C Notes which is not available to be paid (the “Class C Capitalized
Interest”) in accordance with the Priority of Payments on any Payment Date shall not be
considered “due and payable” for the purpose of Section 5.1(a) hereof (and the failure to

payment of Class C Capitalized Interest for which funds are available in accordance with the

Class C Capitalized Interest shall be an Event of Default. Class C Capitalized Interest shall be
added to the principal amount of the Class C Notes, shall bear interest thereafter at the Class C
Rate (to the extent lawful) and shall be payable on the first Payment Date on which funds are
permitted to be used for such purpose in accordance with the Priority of Payments. On or after the
Payment Date on which the Class A Notes or Class B Notes are no longer Outstanding, to the extent
interest is due (excluding any previously deferred Class C Capitalized Interest) but not paid on
the Class C Notes, the failure to pay such interest shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

     (g) The Class D Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the Class D
Rate. Interest on each Class D Note shall be due and payable on each Payment Date immediately
following the related Interest Accrual Period in the proportion that the outstanding principal
amount of such Class D Note bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Class D Notes;
provided, however, that payment of interest on the Class D Notes is subordinated to the payment on
each Payment Date of the interest due and payable on the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the
Class C Notes (including any Class A Defaulted

 - 115 - 

 

Interest Amount, Class B Defaulted Interest Amount, Class C Defaulted Interest Amount and
Class C Capitalized Interest) and certain other amounts in accordance with the Priority of
Payments.

     For so long as any Class C Notes are Outstanding, any payment of interest due on the Class D
Notes which is not available to be paid (“Class D Capitalized Interest”) in accordance with
the Priority of Payments on any Payment Date shall not be considered “due and payable” for the
purpose of Section 5.1(a) hereof (and the failure to pay such Class D Capitalized Interest

any portion of such Class D Capitalized Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments. On
or after such Payment Date, only such portion of any payment of Class D Capitalized Interest for
which funds are available in accordance with the Priority of Payments shall be considered “due and
payable” and the failure to pay such portion of Class D Capitalized Interest shall be an Event of
Default. Class D Capitalized Interest shall be added to the principal amount of the Class D Notes,
shall bear interest thereafter at the Class D Rate (to the extent lawful) and shall be payable on
the first Payment Date on which funds are permitted to be used for such purpose in accordance with
the Priority of Payments. On or after the Payment Date on which the Class C Notes are no longer
Outstanding, to the extent interest is due (excluding any previously deferred Class D Capitalized
Interest) but not paid on the Class D Notes, the failure to pay such interest shall constitute an
Event of Default hereunder.

     (h) The Class E Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the Class E
Rate. Interest on each Class E Note shall be due and payable on each Payment Date immediately
following the related Interest Accrual Period in the proportion that the outstanding principal

Defaulted Interest Amount, Class C Defaulted Interest Amount, Class C Capitalized Interest, Class D
Defaulted Interest Amount and Class D Capitalized Interest) and certain other amounts in accordance

     For so long as any Class D Notes are Outstanding, any payment of interest due on the Class E
Notes which is not available to be paid (the “Class E Capitalized Interest”) in accordance
with the Priority of Payments on any Payment Date shall not be considered “due and payable” for the
purpose of Section 5.1(a) hereof (and the failure to pay such Class E Capitalized Interest
shall not be an Event of Default) until the Payment Date on which funds are available to pay all or
any portion of such Class E Capitalized Interest in accordance with the Priority of Payments. On

payable” and the failure to pay such portion of Class E Capitalized Interest shall be an Event of
Default. Class E Capitalized Interest shall be added to the principal amount of the Class E Notes,
shall bear interest thereafter at the Class E Rate (to the extent lawful) and shall be payable on
the first Payment Date on which funds are permitted to be used for such purpose in accordance with
the Priority of Payments. On or after the Payment Date on which the Class D Notes are no longer
Outstanding, to the extent interest is due (excluding any

 - 116 - 

 

previously deferred Class E Capitalized Interest) but not paid on the Class E Notes, the

or after such Payment Date, only such portion of any payment of Class F Capitalized Interest for
which funds are available in accordance with the Priority of Payments shall be considered “due and
payable” and the failure to pay such portion of Class F Capitalized Interest shall be an Event of
Default. Class F Capitalized Interest shall be added to the principal amount of the Class F Notes,

     (n) Upon any Optional Redemption, Tax Redemption, Auction Call Redemption or Clean-up Call,
all net proceeds from such liquidation and all available Cash, after the payment of the amounts
referred to in clauses (1) through (31) of Section 11.1(a)(i) and clauses (1) through (17)
of Section 11.1(a)(ii) will be distributed by Trustee to the Owner Trustee for distribution

     (q) As a condition to the payment of principal of and interest on any Note without the
imposition of U.S. withholding tax, the Issuer shall require certification acceptable to it to
enable the Issuer, the Trustee, the Owner Trustee and/or the Paying Agent to determine their duties
and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that they may be required to deduct or
withhold from payments in respect of such Security under any present or future law or regulation of
the United States or any present or future law or regulation of any political subdivision thereof
or taxing authority therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements under any such
law or regulation.

     (r) Payments in respect of interest on and principal of the Notes shall be payable by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to a Dollar account maintained by the Holder or its
nominee; provided that the Holder has provided wiring instructions to the Trustee on or before the
related Record Date or, if wire transfer cannot be effected, by a Dollar check drawn on a bank in
the United States, or by a Dollar check mailed to the Holder at its address in the Notes Register.
The Issuer expects that the Depository or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal or
interest in respect of a Global Security held by the Depository or its nominee, shall immediately
credit the applicable Agent Members’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to the
respective beneficial interests in such Global Security as shown on the records of the Depository
or its nominee. The Issuer also expects that payments by Agent Members to owners of beneficial
interests in such Global Security held through Agent Members will be governed by standing
instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of
customers registered in the names of nominees for such customers. Such payments will be the
responsibility of the Agent Members. Upon final payment due on the Maturity of a Note, the Holder
thereof shall present and surrender such Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at
the office of the Paying Agent (outside of the United States if then required by applicable law in
the case of a Certificated Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in the Regulation S
Global Security) on or prior to such Maturity. None of the Issuer, the Trustee or the Paying Agent
will have any responsibility or liability with respect to any records maintained by the Holder of
any Note with respect to the beneficial holders thereof or payments made thereby on account of
beneficial interests held therein. In the case where any final payment of principal and interest
is to be made on any Note (other than on the Stated Maturity thereof) the Issuer or, upon Issuer
Request, the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer shall, not more than 30 nor
fewer than five Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is to be made, mail to the
Persons entitled thereto at their addresses appearing on the Notes Register, a notice which shall
state the date on which such payment will be made and the amount of such payment per $500,000
initial principal amount of Notes and shall specify the place where such Notes may be presented and
surrendered for such payment.

     (s) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.7(a) through (l) hereof, Holders
of Notes as of the Record Date in respect of a Payment Date shall be entitled to the interest
accrued and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments and principal payable in accordance
with the Priority of Payments on such Payment Date. All such payments that are mailed or wired and
returned to the Paying Agent shall be held for payment as herein provided at the office or agency
of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2 (or returned to the Trustee).

Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more predecessor Notes)
is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest.

     (u) Payments of principal to Noteholders of each Class shall be made in the proportion that
the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of such Class registered in the name of each such
Holder on such Record Date bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Notes of such Class on
such Record Date.

     (v) Interest accrued with respect to the Notes shall be calculated as described in the
applicable form of Note attached hereto.

     (w) All reductions in the principal amount of a Note (or one or more predecessor Notes)
effected by payments of installments of principal made on any Payment Date, Redemption Date or upon
Maturity shall be binding upon all future Holders of such Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such
payment is noted on such Note.

     (x) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the obligations of
the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture are non-recourse obligations of the Issuer payable
solely from the Assets and following realization of the Assets, any claims of the Noteholders or
the Trustee shall be extinguished. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in
respect of the Notes against any Officer, director, employee, shareholder, limited partner or
incorporator of the Issuer or any of its respective successors or assigns for any amounts payable
under the Notes or this Indenture. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Assets for the sums due or to become due under any
security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Assets or (ii) constitute a waiver, release
or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture
(to the extent it relates to the obligation to make payments on the Notes) until such Assets have
been realized, whereupon any outstanding indebtedness or obligation in respect of the Notes shall
be extinguished. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall
not limit the right of any Person to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any Proceeding or in
the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the
nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained)
enforced against any such Person or entity.

     (y) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7, each Note delivered under
this Indenture and upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note
shall carry the rights of unpaid interest and principal that were carried by such other Note.

     (z) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions with respect to payments of principal of
and interest on the Notes (but subject to Section 2.7(n)), if the Notes have become or been
declared due and payable following an Event of Default and such acceleration of Maturity and its
consequences have not been rescinded and annulled and the provisions of

 - 124 - 

 

Section 5.5 are not applicable, then payments of principal of and interest on such
Notes shall be made in accordance with Section 5.7 hereof.

     (aa) Payments in respect of the Certificate as contemplated by Sections 11.1(a)(i)(32)
and 11.1(a)(ii)(18) shall be made by the Trustee to the Owner Trustee.

     Section 2.8. Persons Deemed Owners.

     The Issuer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat as the owner of
a Note the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Notes Register on the applicable
Record Date for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest and other amounts on
such Note and on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever (whether or not such Note is
overdue), and none of the Issuer or the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary; provided, however, that the Depository, or its nominee, shall
be deemed the owner of the Global Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in Global
Securities will not be considered the owners of any Notes for the purpose of receiving notices.
With respect to the Certificate, on any Payment Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Owner
Trustee the distributions thereon for distribution to the Certificateholder.

     Section 2.9. Cancellation.

     All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption, or deemed
lost or stolen, shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the
Trustee, and shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee and may not be reissued or resold. No Notes
shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this
Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes held by
the Trustee shall be destroyed or held by the Trustee in accordance with its standard retention
policy unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be returned to them.

     Section 2.10. Global Securities; Temporary Notes.

     (a) In the event that the Depository notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as Depository for a Global Security or if at any time such Depository ceases to be a
“Clearing Agency” registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depository is not appointed by
the Issuer within ninety (90) days of such notice, the Global Securities deposited with the
Depository pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall be transferred to the beneficial owners
thereof subject to the procedures and conditions set forth in this Section 2.10.

     (b) Any Global Security that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to

an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes of the

interest in a Global Security shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.5(f), bear

such registered individual Global Security may transfer such Global Security by surrendering it at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or at the office of the Paying Agent or Irish Paying

they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations
as the Officers executing such Certificated Notes may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their
execution of such Certificated Notes.

     If temporary Certificated Notes are issued, the Issuer shall cause permanent Certificated
Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. The Certificated Notes shall be printed,

     Section 2.11. U.S. Tax Treatment of Notes.

     (a) The Issuer intends that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Notes (other than the
Class K Notes) be treated as debt of the Issuer. Each prospective purchaser and any subsequent
transferee of a Note (other than the Class K Notes) or any interest therein shall, by virtue of its
purchase or other acquisition of such Note or interest therein, be deemed to have agreed to treat
such Note as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

     (b) It is the intent of the Trust Depositor, the CLO Servicer, the Holders of the Class K
Notes and the Certificateholder that, in the event that the Certificate and the Class K Notes are
owned by a single Holder, for federal income tax purposes, the Issuer will be treated as a division
of such Holder, and such Holder, by acceptance of the Certificate and the Class K Notes, agrees to
take no action inconsistent with such treatment.

     (c) Each Holder of Notes shall timely furnish to the Issuer or its agents any U.S. federal
income tax form or certification (such as IRS Form W-8BEN (Certification of Foreign Status of
Beneficial Owner) (with Part III marked), IRS Form W-8IMY (Certification of Foreign Intermediary
Status), IRS Form W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification), or IRS Form
W-8ECI (Certification of Foreign Person’s Claim for Exemption from Withholding on Income
Effectively Connected with Conduct of a U.S. Trade or Business) or any successors to such IRS forms
that the Issuer or its agents may reasonable request and shall update or replace such forms or
certification in accordance with its terms or its subsequent amendments.

     Section 2.12. Authenticating Agents.

     Upon the request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall, and if the Trustee so chooses the Trustee
may pursuant to this Indenture, appoint one or more Authenticating Agents with power to act on its
behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance,
transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 8.5
hereof, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been
expressly authorized by such Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this
Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section
2.12 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes by the Trustee.

     Any corporation or banking association into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or banking association resulting
from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be
the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any
further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor
corporation. Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Trustee and the Issuer. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any
Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the
Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Trustee shall
promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment
to the Issuer.

 - 127 - 

 

     The Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent appointed by it from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services, and reimbursement for its reasonable expenses relating
thereto and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to
Section 6.7 hereof. The provisions of Sections 2.9, 6.4 and 6.5
hereof shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.

     Section 2.13. Forced Sale on Failure to Comply with Restrictions.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of an
Offered Note or interest therein to a U.S. Person who is determined not to have been both a QIB and
a Qualified Purchaser or to a non- U.S. Person who is determined not to have been a Qualified
Purchaser at the time of acquisition of the Offered Note or interest therein shall be null and void
and any such proposed transfer of which the Issuer or the Trustee shall have notice may be
disregarded by the Issuer and the Trustee for all purposes.

     (b) If the Issuer determines that any Noteholder has not satisfied the applicable requirement
described in Section 2.13(a) above (any such person a “Non-Permitted Holder”), then
the Issuer shall promptly after discovery that such Person is a Non-Permitted Holder by the Issuer
or the Trustee (and notice by the Trustee to the Issuer, if either of them makes the discovery),
send notice to such Non-Permitted Holder demanding that such Non-Permitted Holder transfer its
interest to a Person that is not a Non-Permitted Holder within 30 days of the date of such notice.
If such Non-Permitted Holder fails to so transfer its Offered Note or interest therein, the Issuer
shall have the right, without further notice to the Non-Permitted Holder, to sell such Offered Note
or interest therein to a purchaser selected by the Issuer that is not a Non-Permitted Holder on
such terms as the Issuer may choose. The Issuer, or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Issuer,
may select the purchaser by soliciting one or more bids from one or more brokers or other market
professionals that regularly deal in securities similar to the Offered Note, and selling such
Offered Note to the highest such bidder. However, the Issuer or the Trustee may select a purchaser
by any other means determined by it in its sole discretion. The Holder of such Offered Note, the
Non-Permitted Holder and each other Person in the chain of title from the Holder to the
Non-Permitted Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the Offered Note, agrees to cooperate
with the Issuer and the Trustee to effect such transfers. The proceeds of such sale, net of any
commissions, expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale shall be remitted to the
Non-Permitted Holder. The terms and conditions of any sale under this Section 2.13(b)
shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and the Issuer shall not be liable to any
Person having an interest in the Offered Note sold as a result of any such sale of exercise of such
discretion.

Securities”), by the Issuer (A) causing the issuer(s) of such Uncertificated
Securities to register on their respective books the Trustee as the registered owner
thereof upon original issue or transfer thereof or (B) causing another Person, other

Collateral does not constitute a Financial Asset forming the basis of a Security
Entitlement acquired by the Trustee pursuant to clause (i), by the Issuer causing

Minnesota or (B) another Person (other than the Issuer or a Person controlling,

Accounts Receivable to the Trustee hereunder, filing or causing the filing of a UCC
financing statement that encompasses such Accounts Receivable with the Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware and such other offices as applicable; and

Loan, Participation or Preferred Equity Security, as applicable) to make the
Custodial Securities Intermediary the registered owner thereof, (B) causing the
Custodial Securities Intermediary to credit such Loans, Participations or Preferred
Equity Securities, as applicable, to the Custodial Account and to treat such Loans,

the UCC as in effect at the time of transfer of such Loans, Participations or
Preferred Equity Securities to the Trustee hereunder, filing or causing the filing

Indenture.

     (c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Issuer and the Trustee on behalf of the Bank agree,
and the Bank shall cause the Custodial Securities Intermediary, to take such different or
additional action as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to maintain the perfection and
priority of the security interest of the Trustee in the event of any change in applicable law or
regulation, including Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC and Treasury Regulations governing transfers of
interests in Government Items (it being understood that the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon

Issuer or the Collateral Manager) and as to which the Trustee or Collateral Manager,
as applicable, shall have reasonably determined to be necessary or appropriate for

     (iv) from time to time upon request of the Collateral Manager, the Custodial
Securities Intermediary shall, upon delivery by the Collateral Manager of a duly
completed Request for Release in the form of Exhibit G hereto, release to

Collateral Manager reasonably so requests. By submission of any such Request for
Release, the Collateral Manager shall be deemed to have represented and warranted

described in clause (ii) above. The Collateral Manager shall return to the
Custodial Securities Intermediary each Underlying Instrument released from custody
pursuant to this clause (iv) within 20 Business Days of receipt thereof unless the
Trustee agrees in writing to extend such 20 Business Day period (except such
Underlying Instruments as are released in connection with a sale, exchange or other
disposition, in each case only as permitted under this Indenture, of the related
Collateral Obligation that is consummated within such 20-day period).
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (iv), (A) any note,
certificate or other instrument evidencing a Pledged Collateral Obligation shall be
released only for the purpose of (1) a sale, exchange or other disposition of such
Pledged Collateral Obligation that is permitted in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture or (2) presentation, collection, renewal or registration of transfer of
such Collateral Obligation and (B) the Custodial Securities Intermediary may refuse
to honor any Request for Release following the occurrence of an Event of Default
under this Indenture.

     (e) As of the Closing Date (with respect to the Assets) and each date on which an Asset is
acquired (only with respect to the Asset so acquired) the Issuer represents and warrants as
follows:

     (i) this Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined
in the UCC) in the Assets in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, which security interest is prior to all other liens, and is enforceable as
such against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer;

     (ii) the Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to such Assets free and
clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person;

     (iii) in the case of each Asset, the Issuer has acquired its ownership in such
Asset in good faith without notice of any adverse claim as defined in Section
8-102(a)(1) of the UCC as in effect on the date hereof or the date such Asset is

specified in Section 5.1(f) or 5.1(g)), the Trustee may (and shall at the direction
of 66-2/3%, by outstanding principal amount, of each Class of Offered Notes voting collectively
(excluding Collateral Manager Securities) declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest
on all the Notes to be immediately due and payable (and any such acceleration shall automatically
terminate the Replenishment Period). If an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(f) or
Section 5.1(g) above occurs, such an acceleration shall occur automatically and without any
further action. If the Notes are accelerated, payments shall be made in the order and priority set
forth in Section 11.1(a)(i) and Section 11.1(a)(ii) hereof.

     (b) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, no Class A-1R Draw may be made except
with respect to Class A-1R Draws to be applied to fund future advance amounts related to Issuer
Held Delayed Draw Loans and Issuer Held Revolving Loans or to acquire and fund future advance
amounts related to Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans;
provided, however, if an Event of Default specified in clause (f) or (g) above occurs, the undrawn
Class A-1R Commitments will terminate automatically without need for further action.

     (c) If the Notes are accelerated following any other Event of Default, the Collateral Manager
will draw on the Class A-1R Notes, in an amount equal to the Aggregate Class A-1R Undrawn Amount,
and will deposit such amount into the Delayed Funding Obligations Account and/or the Collection
Account as described herein. Immediately following such draw, the Class A-1R Commitments will
terminate.

     (d) At any time after such a declaration of acceleration of maturity of the Notes has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the Money due has been obtained by the Trustee
as hereinafter provided in this Article 5, a Majority of each and every Class of Offered
Notes (voting as a separate Class), by written notice to the Issuer, the Trustee and each Hedge
Counterparty, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

     (i) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

     (A) all unpaid installments of interest on and principal of the Notes
and, in the case of the Class A-1R Notes, the Class A-1R Commitment Fee that
would be due and payable hereunder if the Event of Default giving rise to
such acceleration had not occurred;

 - 143 - 

 

     (B) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on
the Class C Capitalized Interest at the Class C Rate, interest on the Class
D Capitalized Interest at the Class D Rate, interest on the Class E
Capitalized Interest at the Class E Rate, interest on the Class F
Capitalized Interest at the Class F Rate, interest on the Class G
Capitalized Interest at the Class G Rate, interest on the Class H
Capitalized Interest at the Class H Rate and interest on the Class J
Capitalized Interest at the Class J Rate;

     (C) all unpaid taxes of the Issuer, Company Administrative Expenses and
other sums paid or advanced by or otherwise due and payable to the Trustee
hereunder;

     (D) with respect to each Hedge Agreement, any amount then due and
payable thereunder; and

     (E) with respect to the Collateral Management Agreement, any Senior
Collateral Management Fee then due and any Company Administrative Expense
due and payable to the Collateral Manager thereunder.

     (ii) if any Hedge Agreement has been reduced or terminated, the Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied with respect to such reduction or termination; and

     (iii) the Trustee has determined that all Events of Default of which it has
actual knowledge, other than the non-payment of the interest and principal on the
Notes that have become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured and a
Majority of the Controlling Class, by written notice to the Trustee and each Hedge
Counterparty has agreed with such determination (which agreement shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) or waived as provided in Section 5.14.

     At any such time that the Trustee shall rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences as permitted hereinabove, the Trustee shall preserve the Assets in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.5 with respect to the Event of Default that gave rise to such
declaration; provided, however, that if such preservation of the Assets is rescinded pursuant to
Section 5.5, the Notes may be accelerated pursuant to the first paragraph of this
Section 5.2, notwithstanding any previous rescission and annulment of a declaration of
acceleration pursuant to this paragraph.

     No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
In addition, no such rescission shall affect any Hedge Agreement if it has been terminated in
accordance with its terms.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify each Rating Agency of any acceleration or rescission of
acceleration pursuant to this Article 5.

 - 144 - 

 

     (e) Subject to Sections 5.4 and 5.5, a Majority of the Controlling Class shall
have the right to direct the Trustee in the conduct of any proceedings for any remedy available to
the Trustee; provided that (i) such direction will not conflict with any rule of law or this
Indenture (including the limitations described in this Section 5); (ii) the Trustee may
take any other action not inconsistent with such direction; (iii) the Trustee has been provided
with an indemnity or reasonable security satisfactory to it (and the Trustee need not take any
action that it determines might involve it in liability unless it has received such indemnity or
security against such liability); and (iv) any direction to undertake a sale of the Assets may be
made only as described in Section 5.17. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the
receipt of such direction to each Hedge Counterparty promptly after receipt thereof.

     (f) As security for the payment by the Issuer of the compensation and expenses of the Trustee
and any sums the Trustee may be entitled to receive as indemnification by the Issuer, the Issuer
hereby grants the Trustee a lien on the Assets, which lien is senior to the lien of the
Noteholders. The Trustee’s lien shall be subject to the Priority of Payments and exercisable by the
Trustee only if the Notes have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default and such
acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled.

     (g) A Majority of each Class of Notes (each voting as a separate class), may, prior to the
time a judgment or decree for the payment of money due has been obtained by the Trustee, waive any
past Default on behalf of the holders of all the Notes and its consequences in accordance with
Section 5.14.

     (h) In determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of Notes have given any
direction, notice or consent hereunder, (i) Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate thereof
shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding and (ii) in relation to (x) any amendment or
other modification of, or assignment or termination of, any of the express rights or obligations of
the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement or this Indenture (including the
exercise of any rights to remove the Collateral Manager or terminate the Collateral Management
Agreement or approve or object to a replacement for the Collateral Manager except as specifically
provided in the Collateral Management Agreement with respect to the termination of the Collateral
Manager without cause and with respect to the replacement of the Collateral Manager) and (y) the
exercise by the Noteholders of their right, in connection with certain Events of Default, to
accelerate amounts due under the Notes, Notes owned by the Collateral Manager or any of its
Affiliates, or by any accounts managed by them, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be
outstanding. The Collateral Manager and its Affiliates shall be entitled to vote Notes held by
them, and by accounts managed by them, with respect to all other matters other than those described
in clause (ii).

extent that payments of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of

sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and such Noteholder and their respective agents
and counsel; provided that, in all cases, payments in respect of the Class A-1 Notes and the Class

payment of interest on the Class A-1R Notes (including any Class A-1R Defaulted Interest Amount)

the Class A-1 Notes, the payment of principal of the Class A-1A Notes in the amount and in the

Section 11.1(g); provided, further that, among the Class A-2 Notes, the payment of
principal on the Class A-2A Notes will be senior to all payments of principal on the Class A-2B
Notes in accordance with Section 11.1(g).

     If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own
name and as Trustee of an express trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums
so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree,

 - 147 - 

 

and may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect
the Monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the Assets.

     If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate Proceedings as
the Trustee shall deem most effectual (if no direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class is
received by the Trustee), or the Trustee shall proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Noteholders by such Proceedings as the Trustee may be directed by Majority of the
Controlling Class, 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 Trustee by this
Indenture or by law.

     In case there shall be pending Proceedings relative to the Issuer under the Bankruptcy Code or
any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee
or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have
been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer, or their respective property, or in case of
any other comparable Proceedings relative to the Issuer, or the creditors or property of the
Issuer, the Trustee, regardless of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable
as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and regardless of whether the Trustee shall
have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

     (a) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest and the
Class A-1R Commitment Fee 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 Trustee (including
any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their
respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities
incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of
negligence or bad faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in any Proceedings relative to the Issuer
or other obligor upon the Notes or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other
obligor;

     (b) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders
in any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or
other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or Person performing similar functions in comparable
Proceedings; and

     (c) to collect and receive any Monies or other property payable to or deliverable on any such
claims, and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of
the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver or liquidator, custodian or other similar
official is hereby authorized by each of the Noteholders to make payments to the Trustee, and, in
the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Noteholders, to
pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the
Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other
reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all

 - 148 - 

 

advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of its own
negligence or bad faith.

     Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the 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 Holder thereof, or
to authorize the 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.

     All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes,
may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof
in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any action or Proceedings instituted by the
Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of
judgment, shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.7.

     In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders, the Trustee shall be held
to represent all the Noteholders.

     Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Trustee may not sell
or liquidate the Assets or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this
Section 5.3 unless the conditions specified in Section 5.5(a) are met.

     Section 5.4. Remedies.

     (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Notes have been
declared due and payable and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled, the Issuer agrees that the Trustee may, after notice to the Noteholders and each Hedge
Counterparty, and shall, upon direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, exercise one or more of the following rights, privileges and remedies:

     (i) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then payable on the
Notes or otherwise payable under this Indenture, whether by declaration or
otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Assets any Monies
adjudged due;

     (ii) sell all or a portion of the Assets or rights of interest therein, at one
or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law
and in accordance with Section 5.17 hereof;

     (iii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial
foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Assets;

     (iv) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other
appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Trustee and
the Noteholders hereunder; and

 - 149 - 

 

     (v) exercise any other rights and remedies that may be available at law or in
equity;

     provided, however, that the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Assets or institute
Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.4 unless either of the
conditions specified in Section 5.5(a) is met.

     The Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment
banking firm of national reputation with demonstrated capabilities in structuring and distributing
notes or certificates similar to the Notes as to the feasibility of any action proposed to be taken
in accordance with this Section 5.4 and as to the sufficiency of the proceeds and other
amounts receivable with respect to the Assets to make the required payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes and other amounts payable hereunder, which opinion shall be conclusive
evidence as to such feasibility or sufficiency.

     (b) If an Event of Default as described in Section 5.1(e) hereof shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Trustee may, and at the request of the Holders of not less than 25% of the
Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall, institute a Proceeding solely to
compel performance of the covenant or agreement or to cure the representation or warranty, the
breach of which gave rise to the Event of Default under such Section, and enforce any equitable
decree or order arising from such Proceeding.

     (c) Upon any Sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial
proceedings, any Noteholder or Noteholders or Certificateholder or Certificateholders or the Seller
or the Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates may bid for and purchase the Assets or any
part thereof and, upon compliance with the terms of Sale, may hold, retain, possess or dispose of
such property in its or their own absolute right without accountability; and any purchaser at any
such Sale may, in paying the purchase Money, turn in any of the Notes in lieu of Cash equal to the
amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable on the Notes so
turned in by such Holder (taking into account the Class of such Notes). 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 proper notation has been made thereon to show partial payment.

     Upon any Sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial
proceedings, the receipt of the Trustee or of the Officer making a sale under judicial proceedings
shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for its or their
purchase Money and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obliged to see to the application
thereof.

     Any such Sale, whether under any power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial
proceedings, shall bind the Issuer, the Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder, shall
operate to divest all right, title and interest whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of each of
them in and to the property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against
each of them and their successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming through or
under them.

 - 150 - 

 

     (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee may not, prior to the
date which is one year and one day, or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect
after the payment in full of all Notes, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting
against, the Issuer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or
liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under federal or State bankruptcy or similar laws.
Nothing in this Section 5.4 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Trustee (i) from
taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned one year and one day (or, if
longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) period in (A) any case or proceeding
voluntarily filed or commenced by the Issuer or (B) any involuntary insolvency proceeding filed or
commenced by a Person other than the Trustee, or (ii) from commencing against the Issuer or any of
their respective properties any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceeding.

     Section 5.5. Preservation of Assets.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing when any of the Notes are Outstanding, the Trustee shall retain the
Assets securing the Notes, collect and cause the collection of the proceeds thereof and make and
apply all payments and deposits and maintain all accounts in respect of the Assets and the Notes in
accordance with the Priority of Payments and the provisions of Articles 10, 12 and
13 unless either:

     (i) the Trustee, pursuant to Section 5.5(c), determines that the
anticipated proceeds of a sale or liquidation of the Assets (after deducting the
reasonable expenses of such sale or liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in
full the amounts then due and unpaid on the Securities (including the Class A-1R
Commitment Fees and the Class A-1R Breakage Costs), Company Administrative Expenses
due and payable pursuant to clauses (3) and (31) of Section 11.1(a)(i) and
clauses (1) and (13) of Section 11.1(a)(ii), the Senior Collateral
Management Fees due and payable pursuant to clause (4) of Section
11.1(a)(i), the Subordinate Collateral Management Fees due and payable pursuant
to clause (32) of Section 11.1(a)(i), any amounts due and unpaid to each
Hedge Counterparty, including without limitation, any payments (however described)
due and payable by the Issuer under each Hedge Agreement upon a termination of such
Hedge Agreement (including any interest that may accrue thereon) and amounts due and
payable to the Advancing Agent and the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing
Agent, in respect of unreimbursed Interest Advances and Reimbursement Interest and
amounts due and payable to the Collateral Manager in respect of unreimbursed Cure
Advances, and a Majority of the Controlling Class agrees with such determination; or

     (ii) (I) the Holders of 66-2/3% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of each
Class of Notes (voting together), direct, subject to the provisions of this
Indenture, the sale and liquidation of the Assets, or (II) in the case of an Event
of Default under clause (i) above, 66-2/3% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes (voting together).

 - 151 - 

 

     The Trustee shall give written notice of the retention of the Assets to the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty and the Rating Agencies. So long as such Event of
Default is continuing, any such retention pursuant to this Section 5.5(a) may be rescinded
at any time when the conditions specified in clause (i) or (ii) above exist.

     (b) Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to
sell the Assets securing the Notes if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5(a) are not
satisfied. Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee
to preserve the Assets securing the Notes if prohibited by applicable law.

     (c) In determining whether the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the
Collateral Manager shall obtain bid prices with respect to each Pledged Collateral Obligation from
two dealers (Independent of the Collateral Manager and any of its Affiliates) at the time making a
market in such Pledged Collateral Obligations (or, if there is only one market maker, then the
Collateral Manager shall obtain a bid price from that market maker or, if no market maker, from a
pricing service). The Collateral Manager shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or
liquidation on the basis of the lowest of such bid prices for each such Pledged Collateral
Obligation. For the purposes of determining issues relating to the Market Value of the Pledged
Collateral Obligation and the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof, the Trustee may,
but need not, retain at the expense of the Issuer and rely on an opinion of an Independent
investment banking firm of national reputation in connection with a determination (notwithstanding
that such opinion will not be the basis for such determination) as to whether the condition
specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists.

     The Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty a report
stating the results of any determination required to be made pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i).
The Trustee shall make the determinations required by Section 5.5(a)(i) within 30 days
after an Event of Default if requested by the required percentage of the Controlling Class.

     Section 5.6. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes.

     All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or under any of the Notes may be
prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production
thereof in any trial or other Proceeding relating thereto, and any such action or Proceeding
instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust. Any
recovery of judgment in respect of the Notes shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.7
hereof.

     In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee (and any Proceedings involving the interpretation of
any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), in respect of the Notes,
the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders.

     Section 5.7. Application of Money Collected.

     Any Money collected by the Trustee with respect to the Notes pursuant to this Article
5 and any Money that may then be held or thereafter received by the Trustee with respect

 - 152 - 

 

to the Notes hereunder shall be applied subject to Section 13.1 hereof and in
accordance with the Priority of Payments set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, at the date or
dates fixed by the Trustee.

     Section 5.8. Limitation on Suits.

     No Holder of any Notes shall have any right to institute any Proceedings, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for
any other remedy hereunder, unless:

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

     (b) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.9 hereof, the Holders of at least 25% of
the then Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall have made written request to
the Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee
hereunder and such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

     (c) the Trustee for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity
has failed to institute any such Proceeding; and

     (d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during
such 30 day period by a Majority of the Controlling Class; it being understood and intended that no
one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by
availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any
other Holders of Notes of the same Class or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference
over any other Noteholders of the same Class or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except
in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of Notes of
the same Class subject to and in accordance with Section 13.1 hereof and the Priority of
Payments.

     In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from
two or more groups of Holders of the Controlling Class, each representing less than a Majority of
the Controlling Class, the Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall
be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

     Section 5.9. Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest and the
Class A-1R Commitment Fee.

     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture (except for Section 2.7(p) and
2.7(v)), the Holder of any Class of Note shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest (and the Class A-1R Commitment
Fee, as applicable) on such Class of Note as such principal, interest (and the Class A-1R
Commitment Fee, as applicable) and other amounts become due and payable in accordance with the
Priority of Payments and Section 13.1, and, subject to the provisions of Section
5.4(d) and Section 5.8 to institute Proceedings for the enforcement of any such
payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder; provided,
however, that the right of

 - 153 - 

 

such Holder to institute proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment shall not be
subject to the 25% threshold requirement set forth in Section 5.8(b).

     Section 5.10. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

     If the Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has
been determined adversely to the Trustee, or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the
Issuer, the Trustee, and the Noteholder shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Trustee, and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had
been instituted.

     Section 5.11. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, or 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 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 5.12. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     No delay or omission of the Trustee, or of 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 or a waiver of a subsequent Event of Default.
Every right and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Trustee, or to the
Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the
Trustee, or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

     Section 5.13. Control by the Controlling Class.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing when any of the Notes are Outstanding, a Majority of the Controlling
Class shall have the right to cause the institution of and direct the time, method and place of
conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee for exercising any trust, right,
remedy or power conferred on the Trustee in respect of the Notes; provided that:

     (a) such direction shall not conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

     (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not
inconsistent with such direction; provided, however, that, subject to Section 6.1, the
Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability (unless the
Trustee has received satisfactory indemnity against such liability as set forth below);

     (c) the Trustee shall have been provided with indemnity satisfactory to it; and

 - 154 - 

 

     (d) except as otherwise set forth in Section 5.5, any direction to the Trustee to
undertake a Sale of the Assets shall be by the Holders of Notes secured thereby representing a
Majority of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of each Class of Notes.

     Section 5.14. Waiver of Past Defaults.

     Prior to the time a judgment or decree for payment of the Money due has been obtained by the
Trustee, as provided in this Article 5, a Majority of each and every Class of Notes voting
as a separate Class may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past Default in respect
of the Notes and its consequences, except a Default:

     (a) in the payment of principal of any Note;

     (b) in the payment of interest in respect of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes and any
other Class of Notes (to the extent such Class of Notes is the Controlling Class at such time);

     (c) in the payment of the Class A-1R Commitment Fee in respect of the Class A-1R Notes;

     (d) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Section 8.2 cannot be
modified or amended without the waiver or consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note adversely
affected thereby; or

     (e) in respect of any covenant or provision hereof for the individual protection or benefit of
the Trustee (without the Trustee’s express written consent thereto).

     In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee, and the Noteholders shall be restored
to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to
any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto. The Trustee shall promptly
give written notice of any such waiver to the Collateral Manager, each Noteholder and each Hedge
Counterparty.

     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 thereto.

     Section 5.15. Undertaking for Costs.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof
shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any
action taken, or omitted by it as 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, 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 5.15 shall not apply to any suit instituted by
the

 - 155 - 

 

Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, or to any
suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or
interest, or the Class A-1R Commitment Fee, as applicable, on any Note or any other amount payable
hereunder on or after the Stated Maturity (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the
applicable Redemption Date).

     Section 5.16. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

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

     Section 5.17. Sale of Assets.

     (a) The power to effect any sale (a “Sale”) of any portion of the Assets pursuant to
Sections 5.4 and 5.5 hereof shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to
any portion of such Assets remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until all amounts
secured by the Assets shall have been paid or if there are insufficient proceeds to pay such amount
until the entire Assets shall have been sold. The Trustee may upon notice to the Securityholders
and each Hedge Counterparty, and shall, upon direction of a Majority of the Controlling Class, from
time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale;
provided, however, that if the Sale is rescheduled for a date more than three Business Days after
the date of the determination by the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof, such Sale
shall not occur unless and until the Trustee has again made the determination required by
Section 5.5 hereof. The Trustee hereby expressly waives its rights to any amount fixed by
law as compensation for any Sale; provided that the Trustee shall be authorized to deduct the
reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by it in connection with such Sale from the
proceeds thereof notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof.

     (b) The Trustee may bid for and acquire any portion of the Assets in connection with a public
Sale thereof, and may pay all or part of the purchase price by crediting against amounts owing on
the Notes or other amounts secured by the Assets, all or part of the net proceeds of such Sale
after deducting the reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection
with such Sale notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof. The Notes need not be
produced in order to complete any such Sale, or in order for the net proceeds of such Sale to be
credited against amounts owing on the Notes. The Trustee may hold, lease, operate, manage or
otherwise deal with any property so acquired in any manner permitted by law in accordance with this
Indenture.

     (c) If any portion of the Assets consists of securities issued without registration under the
Securities Act (“Unregistered Securities”), the Trustee may seek an

 - 156 - 

 

Opinion of Counsel, or, if no such Opinion of Counsel can be obtained and with the consent of
a Majority of the Controlling Class, seek a no action position from the Securities and Exchange
Commission or any other relevant federal or State regulatory authorities, regarding the legality of
a public or private Sale of such Unregistered Securities. In no event shall the Trustee be
required to register Unregistered Securities under the Securities Act.

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

     (e) In the event of any Sale of the Assets pursuant to Section 5.4 or Section
5.5, payments shall be made in the order and priority set forth in Section 11.1(a)(i)

     Section 5.18. Action on the Notes.

     The Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall
not be affected by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief under or with
respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the
Trustee, or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Trustee
against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the
Assets or upon any of the assets of the Issuer.

ARTICLE 6.

THE TRUSTEE

     Section 6.1. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

     (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

     (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read
into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

     (ii) in the absence of manifest error, or bad faith on its part, the Trustee
may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee
and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however, that in the
case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are
specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a
duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they substantially conform to
the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly, but in any event within three
Business Days in the case of an Officer’s Certificate furnished by the

 - 157 - 

 

Collateral Manager, notify the party delivering the same if such certificate or
opinion does not conform. If a corrected form shall not have been delivered to the
Trustee within 15 days after such notice from the Trustee, the Trustee shall so
notify the Noteholders.

     (b) In case an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from a Majority of the Controlling Class
(or other Noteholders to the extent provided in Article 5 hereof), exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its
exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
person’s own affairs.

     (c) If, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Trustee is required to decide
between alternative courses of action, the Trustee may request written instructions from the
Collateral Manager as to courses of action desired by it. If the Trustee does not receive such
instructions within two Business Days after it has requested them, it may, but shall be under no
duty to, take or refrain from taking such action. The Trustee shall act in accordance with
instructions received after such two-Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken,
or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions. The Trustee shall be
entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and Independent accountants in performing its
duties hereunder and be deemed to have acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such
advice.

     (d) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability
for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct or
bad faith, except that:

     (i) this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection
(a) of this Section 6.1;

     (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Trust Officer, unless it shall be proven that the Trustee was negligent
in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

     (iii) the 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 direction of the
Issuer in accordance with this Indenture and/or the Controlling Class relating to
the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to
the Trustee in respect of any Note or exercising any trust or power conferred upon
the Trustee under this Indenture;

     (iv) no provision of this Indenture shall require the 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 against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it (if the amount of such funds or risk or liability does not

 - 158 - 

 

exceed the amount payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section
11.1(a)(i)(3) and Section 11.1(a)(ii)(1) net of the amounts specified in
Section 6.7(a)(i), the Trustee shall be deemed to be reasonably assured of
such repayment) unless such risk or liability relates to its ordinary services under
this Indenture, except where this Indenture provides otherwise; and

     (v) the Trustee shall not be liable to the Noteholders for any action taken or
omitted by it at the direction of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the
Controlling Class and/or a Noteholder under circumstances in which such direction is
required or permitted by the terms of this Indenture.

     (e) For all purposes under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or
knowledge of any Event of Default described in Section 5.1(d), 5.1(f),
5.1(g) or 5.1(h) or any Default described in Section 5.1(e) unless a Trust
Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee 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 Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and
such notice references, as applicable, the Notes generally, the Issuer, the Assets or this
Indenture. For purposes of determining the Trustee’s responsibility and liability hereunder,
whenever reference is made in this Indenture to such an Event of Default or a Default, such
reference shall be construed to refer only to such an Event of Default or Default of which the
Trustee is deemed to have notice as described in this Section 6.1.

     (f) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating
to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(a), 6.1(b), 6.1(c), 6.1(d)
and 6.1(e).

     (g) The Trustee shall, upon reasonable prior written notice to the Trustee, permit the Issuer,
the Collateral Manager or the Rating Agencies, during the Trustee’s normal business hours, to
examine all books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Trustee relating to the
Notes, to make copies and extracts therefrom (the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
making any such copies or extracts to be reimbursed to the Trustee by such Person) and to discuss
the Trustee’s actions, as such actions relate to the Trustee’s duties with respect to the Notes,
with the Trustee’s officers and employees responsible for carrying out the Trustee’s duties with
respect to the Notes.

     (h) Within 10 days after the Closing Date in respect of the Initial Certification, and within
90 days after the Closing Date in respect of the Final Certification, the Trustee shall examine the

electronic format (i) in the case of the Initial Certification, as to each Collateral Obligation
listed on Schedule E, except as may be specified in the schedule of exceptions to Collateral File
delivery attached thereto, to the effect that each promissory note, subordinate note or mezzanine
note has been endorsed or an allonge has been attached thereto as provided in the definition of
Collateral File (or, in the case of a Noteless Loan, a copy of the Loan Register, certified by an
Officer of

 - 159 - 

 

the party responsible for maintaining such Loan Register pursuant to the Underlying
Instruments, has been provided), and (ii) in the case of the Final Certification, as to each
Collateral Obligation listed on Schedule E, except as may be specified in the schedule of
exceptions to Collateral File delivery attached thereto, to the effect that: (A) all documents
pursuant to the definition of Collateral File required to be included in the Collateral File (to
the extent required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement), and with respect to all documents
specified in the other clauses of the definition of Collateral File to the extent actually known by
a responsible officer of the Trustee to be required pursuant to this Agreement, are in its

veracity of any document in the Collateral File.

     Section 6.2. Notice of Default.

     Promptly (and in no event later than three (3) Business Days) after the occurrence of any
Default known to the Trustee or after any declaration of acceleration has been made or delivered to
the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.2, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to the Collateral

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1:

     (a) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any

make such determination, including nationally recognized dealers in securities of the type
being valued and securities quotation services;

     (d) as a condition to the taking or omitting of any action by it hereunder, the Trustee may

complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon;

     (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise or to honor any of the rights or

     (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated

Registrar or such other agent.

     Section 6.6. Money Held in Trust.

     Money held by the Trustee hereunder shall be held in trust to the extent required herein. The
Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any Money received by it hereunder except as

     (a) The Issuer agrees:

     (i) to pay the Trustee on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of
Payments reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which
compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

     (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee
(subject to any written agreement between the Issuer and the Trustee) in a timely
manner upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
(except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Interest Advances)

 - 162 - 

 

incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this
Indenture (including securities transaction charges to the extent not waived due to
the Trustee’s receipt of payments from a financial institution with respect to
certain Eligible Investments, as specified by the Collateral Manager and the
reasonable compensation and expenses and disbursements of its agents and legal
counsel and of any accounting firm or investment banking firm employed by the

hereof, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to
its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith);

     (iii) to indemnify the Trustee and its Officers, directors, employees and
agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense
incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on their part, arising
out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust,
including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or
liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or
duties hereunder; and

     (iv) to pay the Trustee reasonable additional compensation together with its
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) for any collection action taken

     (b) The Issuer may remit payment for such fees and expenses to the Trustee or, in the absence

Custodial Securities Intermediary, Backup Advancing Agent and Notes Registrar, hereby agrees not to
cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer until at least one year and one day

Notes issued under this Indenture. This provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.

     (d) The Trustee agrees that the payment of all amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to
sub-sections 6.7(a)(i), (a)(ii), (a)(iii) and (a)(iv) shall be
subject to the Priority of Payments, shall be payable only to the extent funds are available in
accordance with such Priority of Payments, shall be payable solely from the Assets and following
realization of the Assets, any such claims of the Trustee against the Issuer shall be extinguished.
The Trustee will have a lien upon the Assets to secure the payment of such payments to it in
accordance with the Priority of Payments; provided that the Trustee shall not institute any
proceeding for enforcement of such lien except in connection with an action taken pursuant to
Section 5.3 hereof for enforcement of the lien of this Indenture for the benefit of the
Noteholders.

     The fees of the Trustee shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve
30-day months; provided that for purposes of determining the amount of such fees that are due in
respect of any period longer or shorter than a calendar quarter, such fees

 - 163 - 

 

shall be pro-rated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in each period longer or
shorter than one calendar quarter, subject to the Trustee’s minimum annual fee. The Trustee shall
receive amounts pursuant to this Section 6.7 and Sections 11.1(a)(i) and
(ii) only to the extent that such payment is made in accordance with the Priority of
Payments and the failure to pay such amounts to the Trustee will not, by itself, constitute an
Event of Default. Subject to Section 6.9, the Trustee shall continue to serve as Trustee
under this Indenture notwithstanding the fact that the Trustee shall not have received amounts due
to it hereunder. No direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class shall affect the right of the
Trustee to collect amounts owed to it under this Indenture.

     If on any Payment Date when any amount shall be payable to the Trustee pursuant to this
Indenture is not paid because there are insufficient funds available for the payment thereof, all
or any portion of such amount not so paid shall be deferred and payable on any later Payment Date
on which a fee shall be payable and sufficient funds are available therefor in accordance with the
Priority of Payments.

     Section 6.8. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and

such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.8, it shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 6.

     Section 6.9. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to this Article 6 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by
the successor Trustee under Section 6.10.

     (b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, the Class A-1R Note Agent, each Hedge Counterparty, the Noteholders and each
Rating Agency. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a
successor trustee or trustees by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by an Authorized
Officer of the Issuer, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee so resigning and one
copy to the successor Trustee or Trustees, together with a copy to each Noteholder, the Class A-1R
Note Agent, each Hedge Counterparty and the Collateral Manager; provided that such successor
Trustee shall be appointed only upon the written consent of a Majority of the Notes (or if there
are no Notes Outstanding, the Certificateholder) or, at any time

 - 164 - 

 

when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Trustee has
been appointed pursuant to Section 6.10, by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class. If
no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor
Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice
of resignation, the resigning Trustee, the Controlling Class of Notes or any Holder of a Note, on
behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

     (c) The Trustee is subject to removal by act of a 66-2/3%, by outstanding principal balance,
of the Noteholders (or if there are no Notes Outstanding, the Certificateholder) or, at any time
when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Trustee has been
appointed pursuant to Section 6.10, by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class, upon
written notice delivered to the Trustee and to the Issuer.

     (d) If at any time:

     (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.8 and shall
fail to resign after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Holder; or

     (ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or there shall be instituted
any proceeding pursuant to which it could be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a
receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

     then, in any such case (subject to Section 6.9(a)), (a) the Issuer, by Issuer Order,
subject to the written consent of each Hedge Counterparty, may remove the Trustee or (b) subject to
Section 5.15, a Majority of the Controlling Class or any Holder may, on behalf of himself
and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

     (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy
shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any reason, the Issuer, by Issuer Order, subject to
the written consent of each Hedge Counterparty and the Collateral Manager, shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee. If the Issuer shall fail to appoint a successor Trustee within 60 days after
such resignation, removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee
may be appointed by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class delivered to the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager and the retiring Trustee. The successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith
upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede any successor
Trustee proposed by the Issuer. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Issuer
or a Majority of the Controlling Class and shall have accepted appointment in the manner
hereinafter provided, subject to Section 5.15, each Hedge Counterparty, the Controlling
Class or any Holder may, on behalf of itself or himself and all others similarly situated, petition
any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 - 165 - 

 

     (f) The Issuer shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee
and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing written notice of such event by first class
mail, postage prepaid, to each Rating Agency, each Hedge Counterparty, the Owner Trustee and to the
Noteholders as their names and addresses appear in the Notes Register. Each notice shall include
the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Issuer
fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee,
the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Issuer.

     Section 6.10. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

     Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Issuer, the Class A-1R Note Agent, each Hedge Counterparty, the Collateral Manager and the retiring
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Upon delivery of the required instruments, the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Issuer or a Majority
of the Controlling Class or the Collateral Manager or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee
shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to
such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly
assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and Money held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in Section
6.7(d). Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all
such rights, powers and trusts.

     No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor shall be qualified and eligible under this Article 6 and (a) such successor shall
have long term debt rated within the four highest rating categories by each Rating Agency, and (b)
each Rating Agency has confirmed in writing that the employment of such successor would not
adversely affect the rating on the Notes.

     Section 6.11. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee.

     Any corporation or banking association into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or banking association resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and
eligible under this Article 6, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any of the Notes have been authenticated,
but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so
authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such
Notes.

 - 166 - 

 

     Section 6.12. Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee.

     At any time or times, including for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any
jurisdiction in which any part of the Assets may at the time be located, the Issuer and the Trustee
shall have power to appoint, one or more Persons to act as co-trustee jointly with the Trustee of
all or any part of the Assets, with the power to file such proofs of claim and take such other
actions pursuant to Section 5.6 herein and to make such claims and enforce such rights of
action on behalf of the Noteholders as such Holders themselves may have the right to do, subject to
the other provisions of this Section 6.12.

     The Issuer shall join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all
instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint a co-trustee. If the Issuer does not
join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by them of a request to do so, the
Trustee shall have power to make such appointment.

     Should any written instrument from the Issuer be required by any co-trustee, so appointed,
more fully confirming to such co-trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such
instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer, as the case
may be. The Issuer agrees to pay (but only from and to the extent of the Assets) to the extent
funds are available therefor under subclauses (3) and (31) of Section 11.1(a)(i), for any
reasonable fees and expenses in connection with such appointment.

     Every co-trustee, shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed
subject to the following terms:

     (a) the Notes shall be authenticated and delivered and all rights, powers, duties and
obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of securities, Cash and other personal property
held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee hereunder, shall be exercised
solely by the Trustee;

     (b) the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in
respect of any property covered by the appointment of a co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed
upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such co-trustee jointly in the
case of the appointment of a co-trustee as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such
co-trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act
is to be performed, the 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 a co-trustee;

     (c) the Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence
of the Issuer evidenced by an Issuer Order, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee
appointed under this Section 6.12, and in case an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Trustee shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such
co-trustee without the concurrence of the Issuer. A successor to any co-trustee so resigned or
removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 6.12;

     (d) no co-trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the
Trustee hereunder;

 - 167 - 

 

     (e) the Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act or omission of a co-trustee; and

     (f) any Act of Securityholders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered
to each co-trustee.

     Section 6.13. Certain Duties of Trustee Related to Delayed Payment of Proceeds.

     In the event that in any month the Trustee shall not have received a Scheduled Distribution,
(a) the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Collateral Manager in writing and (b)
unless within three Business Days (or the end of the applicable grace period for such payment, if
longer) after such notice such payment shall have been received by the Trustee, or the Issuer, in
its absolute discretion (but only to the extent permitted by Section 10.2(a)), shall have
made provision for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with Section
10.2(a), the Trustee shall request the obligor of such Pledged Obligation, the trustee under
the related Underlying Instrument or paying agent designated by either of them, as the case may be,
to make such payment as soon as practicable after such request but in no event later than three
Business Days after the date of such request. In the event that such payment is not made within
such time period, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of clause (iv) of Section 6.1(d),
shall take such action as the Collateral Manager reasonably shall direct in writing. Any such
action shall be without prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this
Indenture. In the event that the Issuer or the Collateral Manager requests a release of a Pledged
Obligation in connection with any such action under the Collateral Management Agreement, such
release shall be subject to Section 10.13 and Article 12 of this Indenture, as the
case may be. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer
or its designee any payment with respect to any Pledged Obligation received after the Due Date
thereof to the extent the Issuer previously made provisions for such payment satisfactory to the
Trustee in accordance with this Section 6.13 and such payment shall not be deemed part of
the Assets.

     Section 6.14. Representations and Warranties of the Trustee.

     The Trustee represents and warrants that:

     (a) the Trustee is a national banking association with trust powers, duly and validly existing
under the laws of the United States of America, with corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under this Indenture, and is duly eligible and qualified to act
as trustee under this Indenture;

     (b) this Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee and
constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Trustee, enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms except (i) as limited by bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer,
insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, receivership, moratorium or other similar laws now or
hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles,
regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (ii) that the remedy of
specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject

 - 168 - 

 

to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor
may be brought;

     (c) neither the execution or delivery by the Trustee of this Indenture nor the performance by
the Trustee of its obligations under this Indenture requires the consent or approval of, the giving
of notice to or the registration or filing with, any governmental authority or agency under any
existing law of the United States of America governing the banking or trust powers of the Trustee;

     (d) neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Indenture, nor the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Indenture, (i) is prohibited by, or requires the Trustee to
obtain any consent, authorization, approval or registration under, any law, statute, rule,
regulation, or any judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree that is binding upon the Trustee or
any of its properties or assets, (ii) will violate the provisions of the Governing Documents of the
Trustee or (iii) will violate any provision of, result in any default or acceleration of any
obligations under, result in the creation or imposition of any lien pursuant to, or require any
consent under, any material agreement to which the Trustee is a party or by which it or any of its
property is bound, the violation of which would have a material adverse effect on the Trustee or
its property; and

     (e) there are no proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of the Trustee, threatened
against the Trustee before any Federal, state or other governmental agency, authority,
administrator or regulatory body, arbitrator, court or other tribunal, foreign or domestic, which
could have a material adverse effect on the Pledged Obligations or the performance by the Trustee
of its obligations under this Indenture.

     Section 6.15. Requests for Consents.

     In the event that the Trustee receives written notice of any proposed amendment, consent or
waiver under the Underlying Instruments of any Collateral Obligation (before or after any default)
or in the event any action is required to be taken in respect to an Underlying Instrument, the
Trustee shall promptly contact the Issuer and the Collateral Manager. The Collateral Manager may,
on behalf of the Issuer, instruct the Trustee pursuant to an Issuer Order to, and the Trustee
shall, with respect to which a Collateral Obligation as to which a consent or waiver under the
Underlying Instruments of such Collateral Obligation (before or after any default) has been
proposed or with respect to action required to be taken in respect of an Underlying Instrument,
give consent, grant a waiver, vote or exercise any or all other rights or remedies with respect to
any such Collateral Obligation in accordance with such Issuer Order. In the absence of any
instruction from the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer, the Trustee shall not engage in
any vote or take any action with respect to such a Collateral Obligation.

ARTICLE 7.

COVENANTS

     Section 7.1. Payment of Principal and Interest and Class A-1R Commitment Fees.

     The Issuer shall duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest on each Class of Notes
and, in the case of the Class A-1R Notes, the Class A-1R Commitment Fee or Class A-1R Breakage
Costs, in accordance with the terms of such Notes and this Indenture. Amounts properly withheld
under the Code or other applicable law by any Person from a payment to any Noteholder of interest
and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer, and, with respect to the
Certificate, by the Issuer, to such Certificateholder for all purposes of this Indenture.

     The Trustee shall, unless prevented from doing so for reasons beyond its reasonable control,
give notice to each Securityholder of any such withholding requirement no later than ten days prior
to the related Payment Date from which amounts are required (as directed by the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) to be withheld, provided that despite the failure of
the Trustee to give such notice amounts withheld pursuant to applicable tax laws shall be
considered as having been paid by the Issuer, as provided above.

     Section 7.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency.

     The Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee as a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes and where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
and the Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee, as its agent where notices and demands to or upon the
Issuer in respect of the Notes or this Indenture, may be served.

     The Issuer hereby appoints the Irish Paying Agent as a Paying Agent for the payment of
principal of and interest on the Notes and to act as its agent where notices and demands to or upon
the Issuer in respect of the Notes or this Indenture may be served and where Notes may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange.

     The Issuer may at any time and from time to time vary or terminate the appointment of any such
agent or appoint any additional agents for any or all of such purposes; provided, however, that the
Issuer will maintain in Chevy Chase, Maryland, an office or agency where notices and demands to or
upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served, and, subject to any laws
or regulations applicable thereto, an office or agency outside of the United States where Notes may
be presented and surrendered for payment; provided, further, that no paying agent shall be
appointed in a jurisdiction which subjects payments on the Notes to withholding tax. The Issuer
shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee, the Class A-1R Note Paying Agent, each Rating
Agency and the Noteholders of the appointment or termination of any such agent and of the location
and any change in the location of any such office or agency.

     If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency in Chevy
Chase, Maryland, or outside the United States, or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with

 - 170 - 

 

the address thereof, presentations and surrenders may be made (subject to the limitations
described in the preceding paragraph) at and notices and demands may be served on the Issuer, and
Notes may be presented and surrendered for payment to the appropriate Paying Agent at its main
office and the Issuer hereby appoints the same as their agent to receive such respective
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

     Section 7.3. Money for Note Payments to be Held in Trust.

     All payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from
amounts withdrawn from the Payment Account shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Trustee or
a Paying Agent (in each case, from and to the extent of available funds in the Payment Account and
subject to the Priority of Payments) with respect to payments on the Notes.

     When the Paying Agent is not also the Notes Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish, or cause the
Notes Registrar to furnish, no later than the fifth calendar day after each Record Date a list, if
necessary, in such form as such Paying Agent may reasonably request, of the names and addresses of
the Holders of Notes and of the certificate numbers of individual Notes held by each such Holder.

     Whenever the Paying Agent is not also the Trustee, the Issuer and such Paying Agent shall, on
or before the Business Day next preceding each Payment Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be,
direct the Trustee to deposit on such Payment Date with such Paying Agent, if necessary, an
aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due pursuant to the terms of this
Indenture (to the extent funds are then available for such purpose in the Payment Account, and
subject to the Priority of Payments), such sum to be held for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee
of its action or failure so to act. Any Monies deposited with a Paying Agent (other than the
Trustee) in excess of an amount sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due on the Notes with
respect to which such deposit was made shall be paid over by such Paying Agent to the Trustee for
application in accordance with Article 11. Any such Paying Agent shall be deemed to agree
by assuming such role not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer for
the non-payment to the Paying Agent of any amounts payable thereto until at least one year and one
day or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect after the payment in full of all
Notes issued under this Indenture.

     The initial Paying Agent shall be as set forth in Section 7.2. Any additional or
successor Paying Agents shall be appointed by Issuer Order of the Issuer with written notice
thereof to the Trustee; provided, however, that so long as any Class of the Notes are rated by a
Rating Agency and with respect to any additional or successor Paying Agent for the Notes, either
(i) such Paying Agent has a long-term debt rating of “Aa3” or higher by Moody’s, “AA-”or higher by
Fitch and “AA-” or higher by S&P or a short-term debt rating of “P-1” by Moody’s, “F1+” by Fitch
and “A1+” by S&P or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such
additional or successor Paying Agent. In the event that such successor Paying Agent ceases to have
a long-term debt rating of “Aa3” or higher by Moody’s, “AA-”or higher by Fitch or “AA-” or higher
by S&P or a short-term debt rating of at least “P-1” by Moody’s, “F1+” by Fitch and “A-1+” by S&P,
the Issuer shall promptly remove such Paying

 - 171 - 

 

Agent and appoint a successor Paying Agent. The Issuer shall not appoint any Paying Agent that
is not, at the time of such appointment, a depository institution or trust company subject to
supervision and examination by federal and/or state and/or national banking authorities. The Issuer
shall cause the Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee (and if the Trustee acts as
Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 7.3, that
such Paying Agent will:

     (a) allocate all sums received for payment to the Holders of Notes for which it acts as Paying
Agent on each Payment Date and Redemption Date among such Holders in the proportion specified in
the applicable report or Redemption Date Statement, as the case may be, in each case to the extent
permitted by applicable law;

     (b) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;

     (c) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, immediately resign as a Paying Agent and
forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held by it for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases
to meet the standards set forth above required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its
appointment;

     (d) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, immediately give the Trustee notice of any
Default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment required
to be made; and

     (e) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, at any time during the continuance of any such
Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held by
such Paying Agent.

     The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Issuer Order direct the Paying Agent to pay, to
the Trustee all sums held by the Issuer or held by the Paying Agent for payment of the Notes, such
sums to be held by the Trustee in trust for the same Noteholders as those upon which such sums were
held by the Issuer or the Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by the Paying Agent to the Trustee,
the Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such Money.

     Except as otherwise required by applicable law, any Money deposited with the Trustee in trust
or deposited with the Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has become due and payable shall
be paid to the Issuer; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general
creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment of such amounts and all liability of the Trustee or
the Paying Agent with respect to such Money (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the
Issuer) shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Irish Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such payment, shall at the expense of the Issuer cause

 - 172 - 

 

to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published
on each Business Day and of general circulation in Dublin, Ireland, notice that such money remains
unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days
from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be
repaid to the Issuer. The Trustee or the Paying Agent, before being required to make any such
release of payment, may, but shall not be required to, adopt and employ, at the expense of the
Issuer any reasonable means of notification of such release of payment, including, but not limited
to, mailing notice of such release to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been
surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in Monies due and payable but not claimed
is determinable from the records of the Paying Agent, at the last address of record of each such
Holder.

     Section 7.4. Existence of the Issuer.

     (a) So long as any Note is outstanding, the Issuer shall maintain in full force and effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware and
shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign limited liability company
in each jurisdiction in which such qualifications are or shall be necessary to protect the validity
and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or any of the Assets; provided that the Issuer
shall be entitled to change its jurisdiction of registration to any other jurisdiction reasonably
selected by the Issuer so long as (i) such change is not disadvantageous in any material respect to
the Noteholders or the Certificateholder, (ii) written notice of such change shall have been given
by the Trustee to the Noteholders or Certificateholder, the Owner Trustee and each Rating Agency
fifteen (15) Business Days prior to such change and (iii) on or prior to the 15th Business Day
following such notice the Trustee shall not have received written notice from a Majority of the
Controlling Class or the Certificateholder objecting to such change. So long as any Note is
outstanding, the Trust Depositor will maintain at all times at least two directors who are
Independent of the Collateral Manager and its Affiliates.

     (b) So long as any Note is outstanding, the Issuer shall ensure that all statutory trust
formalities or other formalities regarding its existence are followed (including correcting any
known misunderstanding regarding its separate existence). So long as any Note is outstanding, the
Issuer shall not take any action or conduct its affairs in a manner that is likely to result in its
separate existence being ignored or its assets and liabilities being substantively consolidated
with any other Person in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding. So long as
any Note is outstanding, the Issuer shall maintain and implement administrative and operating
procedures reasonably necessary in the performance of the Issuer’s obligations hereunder, and the
Issuer shall at all times keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and maintained, separate books,
records, accounts and other information customarily maintained for the performance of the Issuer’s
obligations hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, so long as any Note is outstanding, (i) the
Issuer shall (A) pay its own liabilities only out of its own funds and (B) use separate stationery,
invoices and checks, (ii) the Issuer shall not have any subsidiaries, and (iii) the Issuer shall
not (A) have any employees, (B) engage in any transaction with any shareholder that is not
permitted under the terms of the Collateral Management Agreement, (C) pay dividends other than in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture or (D) conduct business under an assumed name (i.e. no
DBAs).

 - 173 - 

 

     Section 7.5. Protection of Assets.

     (a) The Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, pursuant to any Opinion of Counsel received pursuant
to Section 7.5(d) shall execute and deliver all such Financing Statements, continuation
statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other
action as may be necessary or advisable or desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the
Holders and each Hedge Counterparty hereunder and to:

     (i) Grant more effectively all or any portion of the Assets;

     (ii) maintain or preserve the lien (and the priority thereof) of this Indenture
or to carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

Assets.

     The Issuer hereby designates the Trustee, its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any
Financing Statement, continuation statement or other instrument required pursuant to this
Section 7.5. The Trustee agrees that it will from time to time cause to be filed Financing
Statements and continuation statements (it being understood that the Trustee shall be entitled to
rely upon an Opinion of Counsel described in Section 7.5(d), at the expense of the Issuer,
as to the need to file such Financing Statements and continuation statements, the dates by which
such filings are required to be made and the jurisdictions in which such filings are required to be
made).

     (b) The Trustee shall not (i) except in accordance with Section 10.13(a), (b)
or (c) and except for payments, deliveries and distributions otherwise expressly permitted
under this Indenture, remove any portion of the Assets that consists of Cash or is evidenced by an
instrument, certificate or other writing (A) from the jurisdiction in which it was held at the date
as described in the Opinion of Counsel delivered at the Closing Date pursuant to Section
3.1(c) or (B) from the possession of the Person who held it on such date or (ii) cause or
permit the Custodial Account or the Custodial Securities Intermediary to be located in a different
jurisdiction from the jurisdiction in which such securities accounts and Custodial Securities
Intermediary were located on the Closing Date, unless the Trustee shall have first received an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the lien and security interest created by this Indenture with
respect to such property will continue to be maintained after giving effect to such action or
actions.

 - 174 - 

 

     (c) The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid taxes, if any, levied on account of the
beneficial ownership by the Issuer of any Pledged Obligations that secure the Notes.

     (d) For so long as the Notes are Outstanding, (i) sixty (60) days prior to January 20, 2012
and (ii) every sixty (60) months after January 20 , 2012, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on
behalf of the Issuer) shall deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee, the Collateral
Manager, each Hedge Counterparty and each Rating Agency, at the expense of the Issuer, an Opinion
of Counsel stating what is required, in the opinion of such counsel, as of the date of such
opinion, to maintain the lien and security interest created by this Indenture with respect to the
Assets, and confirming the matters set forth in the Opinion of Counsel, furnished pursuant to
Section 3.1(c), with regard to the perfection and priority of such security interest (and
such Opinion may likewise be subject to qualifications and assumptions similar to those set forth
in the Opinion delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(c)); provided that the Issuer shall be
required to deliver an Opinion of Counsel with respect to the foregoing matters within 60 days
after any change in the jurisdiction of organization of the Trustee; and provided, further, that a
Majority of the Controlling Class shall be entitled to direct the Issuer to deliver an additional
Opinion of Counsel with respect to the foregoing matters, at the expense of such Holders, twice
within any such 60 month period.

     Section 7.6. Notice of Any Amendments.

     The Issuer shall give notice to the Rating Agencies of, and satisfy the Rating Agency
Condition with respect to, any amendments to its Governing Documents.

     Section 7.7. Performance of Obligations.

     (a) The Issuer shall not take any action, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts not
to permit any action to be taken by others, that would release any Person from any of such Person’s
covenants or obligations under any instrument included in the Assets, except in the case of
enforcement action taken with respect to any Defaulted Security in accordance with the provisions
hereof and as otherwise required hereby.

     (b) The Issuer may, with the prior written consent of the Majority of the Notes (or if there
are no Notes Outstanding, the Certificateholder), contract with other Persons, including the
Collateral Manager, the Class A-1R Note Paying Agent or the Trustee, for the performance of actions
and obligations to be performed by the Issuer hereunder by such Persons and the performance of the
actions and other obligations with respect to the Assets of the nature set forth in the Collateral
Management Agreement by the Collateral Manager. Notwithstanding any such arrangement, the Issuer
shall remain primarily liable with respect thereto. In the event of such contract, the performance
of such actions and obligations by such Persons shall be deemed to be performance of such actions
and obligations by the Issuer; and the Issuer shall punctually perform, and use its best efforts to
cause the Collateral Manager or such other Person to perform, all of their obligations and
agreements contained in the Collateral Management Agreement or such other agreement.

     Section 7.8. Negative Covenants.

     (ii) claim any credit on, make any deduction from, or dispute the

hereunder to be impaired, or permit the lien of this Indenture to be amended,

released from any covenants or obligations with respect to this Indenture or the
Notes, except as may be expressly permitted hereby, (B) permit any lien, charge,

of this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden
the Assets or any part thereof, any interest therein or the proceeds thereof, except
as may be expressly permitted hereby or (C) take any action that would permit the
lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid first priority security interest in

the Class A-1R Note Paying Agent and the Rating Agencies and an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that such name change will not adversely affect the security interest
hereunder of the Trustee;

     (xii) engage in any activity that would cause the Issuer to be subject to U.S.
Federal, state or local income or franchises tax; or

     (xiii) except for any agreements (other than a Hedge Agreement) involving the

and documented with customary loan trading documentation, enter into any agreements

than a QRS or other “pass through” entity for federal income tax purposes.

     (e) For so long as any Offered Note is Outstanding, the Trust Depositor may not sell, transfer
or finance any Class J Note or Class K Note except in accordance with the transfer restrictions set

in the case of any transfer or conveyance of the Assets securing any of the Notes, such Notes and
(C) such other matters as the Trustee, each Hedge Counterparty, the Collateral Manager or any
Noteholder may reasonably require;

     (e) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing;

     (f) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, the Owner Trustee, each Hedge

of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance and such
supplemental indenture comply with this Article 7 and that all conditions precedent in this
Article 7 provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with and that no
adverse tax consequences will result therefrom to the Noteholders, the Certificateholder and any
Hedge Counterparty; and

     (g) after giving effect to such transaction, the Issuer shall not be required to register as
an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

     Section 7.11. Successor Substituted.

     Upon any consolidation or merger, or transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Issuer, in accordance with Section 7.10 hereof, the Person formed by or

consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance is made, shall succeed to, and be

 - 179 - 

 

substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under this Indenture
with the same effect as if such Person had been named as the Issuer herein. In the event of any
such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance, the Person named as the “Issuer” in the first
paragraph of this Indenture or any successor which shall theretofore have become such in the manner
prescribed in this Article 7 may be dissolved, wound-up and liquidated at any time

in accordance with its Governing Documents, entering into any Hedge Agreement, the Collateral
Management Agreement, and acquiring, owning, holding and pledging the Assets in connection with the
Notes and such other activities which are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the
foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected therewith.

     Section 7.13. Reporting.

     At any time when the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and is
not exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) under the Exchange Act, upon the request of a
Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, the Issuer shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished
“Rule 144A Information” (as defined below) to such holder or beneficial owner, to a prospective
purchaser of such Note designated by such holder or beneficial owner or to the Trustee for delivery
to such holder or beneficial owner or a prospective purchaser designated by such holder or
beneficial owner, as the case may be, in order to permit compliance by such holder or beneficial
owner with Rule 144A under the Securities Act in connection with the resale of such Note by such
holder or beneficial owner. “Rule 144A Information” shall be such information as is specified
pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto). The
Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Issuer in mailing or otherwise distributing (at the
Issuer’s expense) to such Noteholders or prospective purchasers, at and pursuant to the Issuer’s
written direction the foregoing materials prepared by or on behalf of the Issuer; provided,
however, that the Trustee shall be entitled to prepare and affix thereto or enclose therewith
reasonable disclaimers to the effect that such Rule 144A Information was not assembled by the
Trustee, that the Trustee has not reviewed or verified the accuracy thereof, and that it makes no
representation as to such accuracy or as to the sufficiency of such information under the
requirements of Rule 144A or for any other purpose.

     Section 7.14. Calculation Agent.

     (a) The Issuer hereby agrees that for so long as any Notes remain Outstanding there shall at
all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR in respect of each Interest Accrual Period in
accordance with the terms of Schedule F hereto (the “Calculation Agent”). The
Issuer have initially appointed the Trustee as Calculation Agent for purposes of determining LIBOR
for each Interest Accrual Period. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Issuer at any time.
The Calculation Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Noteholders and each Rating

 - 180 - 

 

Agency. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the
Issuer in respect of any Interest Accrual Period, the Issuer shall, with the prior written consent
of each Hedge Counterparty, promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent a leading bank
which is engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market and
which does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the Issuer. The
Calculation Agent may not resign its duties without a successor having been duly appointed, and
shall promptly inform the Hedge Counterparty of any such appointment. If no successor Calculation
Agent shall have been appointed within 30 days after giving of a notice of resignation, the
resigning Calculation Agent, each Hedge Counterparty, a Majority of the Notes or any Holder of a
Note, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition a court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Calculation Agent.

     (b) The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon as practicable after 11:00
a.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date (as defined in Schedule F hereto), but
in no event later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the London Banking Day immediately following
each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent shall calculate (x) LIBOR for the next
Interest Accrual Period and (y) the amount of interest for such Interest Accrual Period payable in
respect of each U.S. $1,000 principal amount of each Class of Notes (rounded to the nearest cent,
with half a cent being rounded upward) on the related Payment Date, and will communicate such rates
and amounts to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, the Paying Agent, each Hedge
Counterparty and, if any Floating Rate Note is in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, to
Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. The Calculation Agent shall also specify to the Issuer the
quotations upon which LIBOR is based, and in any event the Calculation Agent shall notify the
Issuer before 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on each LIBOR Determination Date if it has not determined
and is not in the process of determining LIBOR and the Interest Distribution Amounts for each Class
of Notes, together with the reasons therefor. The determination of the Class A-1A Rate, Class A-1R
Rate, Class A-2A Rate, Class A-2B Rate, Class B Rate, Class C Rate, Class D Rate, Class E Rate,
Class F Rate, Class G Rate, Class H Rate and Class J Rate and the related Class A-1A Interest
Distribution Amount, Class A-1R Interest Distribution Amount, Class A-2A Interest Distribution
Amount, Class A-2B Interest Distribution Amount, Class B Interest Distribution Amount, Class C
Interest Distribution Amount, Class D Interest Distribution Amount, Class E Interest Distribution
Amount, Class F Interest Distribution Amount, Class G Interest Distribution Amount, Class H
Interest Distribution Amount and Class J Interest Distribution Amount, respectively, by the
Calculation Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final and binding on all parties.

     Section 7.15.
Reserved.

     Section Section 7.16. Maintenance of Listing.

     (a) For so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding, the Issuer shall use all reasonable
efforts to arrange and maintain the listing of the Notes on the Irish Stock Exchange.

     (b) If the Notes (other than the Class A-1R Notes) are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange, the
Issuer shall:

 - 181 - 

 

     (i) in each calendar year commencing in 2007, request from the Irish Stock
Exchange a waiver of the Irish Stock Exchange’s requirement to publish annual
reports and accounts;

     (ii) submit to the Irish Stock Exchange draft copies of any proposed amendments
to the Governing Documents which would affect the rights of the Noteholders listed
on the Irish Stock Exchange;

     (iii) pay the annual fee for listing the Notes on the Irish Stock Exchange, if
any; and

     (iv) inform the Irish Stock Exchange if the rating assigned to any of the Notes
is reduced or withdrawn.

     (c) All notices, documents, reports and other announcements delivered to such Company
Announcements Office shall be in the English language.

     (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer
determines that the maintenance of the listing of any Class of Notes (other than the Class A-1R
Notes) on the Irish Stock Exchange (or any alternative listing on another securities exchange) is
unduly onerous or burdensome, the Issuer will have the right to cause such Class of Notes to be
delisted from the Irish Stock Exchange (or such other securities exchange). Without limiting the
Collateral Manager’s discretion with respect to any determination that maintaining or obtaining a
listing is unduly onerous or burdensome, the Collateral Manager may take into account various
factors, including any requirement, resulting from a listing, that the Issuer prepare financial
statements of any particular kind or provide additional disclosure of any particular kind, in each
case including any such requirement arising out of disclosure or transparency directives of the
European Union or any other law or governmental rule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent
of a Majority of the Controlling Class shall be required unless the reason for delisting relates to
a legal/compliance, regulatory, accounting or tax issue

     Section 7.17. Purchase of Assets.

     The Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall use reasonable commercial
efforts to invest Principal Proceeds and any remaining Initial Deposit and any Reinvestment Income
during the Ramp-Up Period in Collateral Obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof.
Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.17, Principal Proceeds and all or any portion
of any remaining Initial Deposit and any Reinvestment Income thereon may be applied prior to the
Effective Date to purchase Collateral Obligations (which shall be, and hereby are, Granted to the
Trustee pursuant to the Granting Clause of this Agreement) for inclusion in the Assets upon receipt
by the Trustee of an Issuer Order executed by the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of
the Issuer) with respect thereto directing the Trustee to pay out the amount specified therein
against delivery of the Collateral Obligation specified therein and a certificate of an Authorized
Officer of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager), dated as of the trade date, and delivered to the
Trustee on or prior to the date of such purchase and Grant, to the effect that the criteria set
forth below in this Section 7.17 will be satisfied (such criteria to be

 - 182 - 

 

applied as of the trade date) after giving effect to such purchase and Grant of the Collateral
Obligations:

     (a) the Eligibility Criteria are met with respect to the Collateral Obligations purchased;

     (b) the Replenishment Criteria are satisfied after giving effect to such investment; and

     (c) the procedures relating to the perfection of the Trustee’s security interest in the
Collateral Obligations described in this Agreement have been satisfied.

     Section 7.18. Effective Date Actions.

     (a) The Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall cause to be delivered
to the Trustee and each Rating Agency on the Effective Date an amended Schedule of Closing Date
Collateral Obligations listing all Collateral Obligations Granted to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 7.17 on or before the Effective Date, which schedule shall supersede any prior
Schedule of Closing Date Collateral Obligations delivered to the Trustee.

     (b) Within ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Date, the Issuer (or the Collateral
Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall request each Rating Agency rating a Class of Notes to
confirm within thirty (30) Business Days after the Effective Date, and to so notify in writing the
Trustee and any Hedge Counterparty, that it has not reduced or withdrawn the ratings assigned by it
on the Closing Date to such Class of Notes. If, within thirty (30) Business Days after the
Effective Date, any rating assigned as of the Closing Date to any Class of Notes has not been
confirmed, or is reduced or withdrawn, by any such Rating Agency, the Collateral Manager may, on
behalf of the Issuer, within 10 Business Days provide to such Rating Agency a proposal (a
“Proposal”) with respect to the Collateral Obligations. If such Rating Agency does not
accept the Proposal or the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, elects not to submit a
Proposal, a “Rating Confirmation Failure” shall have occurred. If such Rating Agency
accepts the Proposal, a Rating Confirmation Failure shall not be deemed to have occurred unless and
until the Collateral Manager fails to meet the conditions set forth in the Proposal in accordance
with the time requirements set forth in such Proposal. Within ten (10) Business Days after the
conditions set forth in the Proposal have been satisfied, the Issuer must request a Rating
Confirmation. If the relevant Rating Agency does not confirm its rating, a Rating Confirmation
Failure shall have occurred. If a Rating Confirmation Failure occurs on the first Payment Date
thereafter, (i) as provided in Section 10.4, amounts on deposit in the Unused Proceeds
Account, (ii) as provided in Section 11.1(a)(i), all Interest Proceeds remaining after
payment of amounts referred to in clauses (1) through (29) of Section 11.1(a)(i) and
(iii) as provided in Section 11.1(a)(ii), all Principal Proceeds remaining after
payment of the amounts referred to in clauses (1) through (10) of Section 11.1(a)(ii), in
each case will be used to pay principal of each such Class of Notes, sequentially in accordance
with the Priority of Payments, until each such rating is confirmed or reinstated or such Class of
Notes has been paid in full.

     (c) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall cause to be delivered to the Trustee,
each Hedge Counterparty and each Rating Agency, within six Business Days after

 - 183 - 

 

the Effective Date, an Accountants’ Report, dated as of the Effective Date, confirming that
the Collateral Quality Tests and the Coverage Tests have been satisfied and that the Collateral
Obligations and the Aggregate Class A-1R Undrawn Amount have an aggregate par amount (or, in the
case of the Aggregate Class A-1R Undrawn Amount, an aggregate dollar value) equal to at least the
Minimum Ramp-Up Amount and certifying the procedures applied and such accountants’ associated
findings with respect to the Eligibility Criteria and specifying the procedures undertaken by them
to review data and computations relating to such information. The Collateral Manager may on any
date, prior to the 120th day following the Closing Date or the purchase of Collateral Obligations
having an aggregate par amount (together with the Aggregate Class A-1R Undrawn Amount) equal to the
Minimum Ramp-Up Amount, upon written notice to the Trustee, the Class A-1R Note Agent, the Issuer
and each Rating Agency (with a copy to each Hedge Counterparty), declare that the Effective Date
shall occur on the date specified in such notice; provided that each of the Collateral Quality
Tests and the Coverage Tests will be satisfied as of such Effective Date and the Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied. The Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall
cause to be delivered to S&P on the Effective Date a Microsoft Excel file that provides all of the
inputs required to determine whether the S&P CDO Monitor Test has been satisfied.

     Section 7.19. Liquidity Tests.

     (a) So long as the Issuer owns Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans or Third-Party Held
Revolving Loans with respect to which the additional funding commitments are held by Future Advance
Holders, and the aggregate amount of the additional funding commitments related to such Third-Party
Held Delayed Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans is greater than $5,000,000 (the
“Additional Funding Threshold”), CapitalSource Inc.’s, CapitalSource’s and CSE Mortgage’s
combined Liquidity will be measured quarterly on each Payment Date (or, if such day is not a
Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day) (each such day, a “Quarterly Measurement
Date” and each such measurement, a “Liquidity Test”). If CapitalSource Inc.’s,
CapitalSource’s and CSE Mortgage’s combined Liquidity is less than the greater of (1) $20,000,000
and (2) the Future Funding Threshold Amount (the “Liquidity Threshold”) on any Quarterly
Measurement Date on which the aggregate amount of the additional funding commitments related to
such Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans is greater than the
Additional Funding Threshold, and CapitalSource Inc.’s, CapitalSource’s and CSE Mortgage’s does
not, within 30 calendar days, (i) increase their combined Liquidity to at least the Liquidity
Threshold, (ii) obtain a Qualified Letter of Credit or a guarantee or otherwise transfer the
ultimate obligation to fund such future advances in an amount at least equal to the excess, if any,
of the Liquidity Threshold over their combined Liquidity from or to (as the case may be) an entity
rated at least “A-” by S&P and “A3” by Moody’s, (iii) fund one or more accounts owned by the
relevant Future Advance Holder(s) in an aggregate amount at least equal to the excess, if any, of
the Liquidity Threshold over their combined Liquidity, the only permitted withdrawals from which
will be to satisfy the additional funding commitments of such Future Advance Holders or to
reimburse the Issuer for losses related to the failure of the Future Advance Holders to fund future
advances in accordance with the terms of the related mortgage loan documents, or (iv) take some
other action acceptable to S&P and Moody’s, a “Liquidity Test Failure” shall have occurred
with respect to such Quarterly Measurement Date. If such Liquidity Test Failure is not cured by
the following Payment Date, amounts available to be distributed to the holders of the Certificate
pursuant to

 - 184 - 

 

clause (32) of Section 11.1(a)(i) instead will be deposited into the Liquidity
Suspense Account until such Liquidity Test Failure is cured. The Collateral Manager shall notify
S&P if a Liquidity Test Failure occurs (and in connection therewith shall report to S&P the amount
of Liquidity as of the date of the Liquidity Test Failure). For the avoidance of doubt, if
CapitalSource Inc., CapitalSource and CSE Mortgage takes one of the actions described in clause
(ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence following the occurrence of a Liquidity
Failure, they or it, as the case may be, will be permitted to terminate such letter of credit or
guarantee or liquidate such account, as the case may be, at any time thereafter when their combined
Liquidity is at least the Liquidity Threshold. Amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Suspense
Account (or any portion thereof) will be paid (upon standing order of the Issuer) to the Owner
Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Distribution Account for distribution to the
Certificateholder as payments of the Certificate Distribution Amount on any date on which the
Liquidity Test would be satisfied after such release and payment.

     (b) With respect to each Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loan or Third-Party Held Revolving Loan
described in clause (xliii)(C) of the definition of Eligibility Criteria, on any Payment Date on
which the aggregate amount of the additional funding commitments related to such Third-Party Held
Delayed Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans is greater than the Additional Funding
Threshold, if the related Future Advance Holder or any other Person has failed to fund any future
advance required to be funded by it in accordance with the terms of the related Third-Party Held
Delayed Draw Loan or Third-Party Held Revolving Loan and CapitalSource Inc., CapitalSource and CSE
Mortgage has not, within 30 calendar days thereafter, (i) obtained a Qualified Letter of Credit or
a guarantee from an entity rated at least “A-” by S&P and “A3” by Moody’s in an amount at least
equal to the Liquidity Threshold, (ii) funded one or more accounts owned by the relevant Future
Advance Holders in an aggregate amount at least equal to the Liquidity Threshold, the only
permitted withdrawals from which will be to satisfy the additional funding commitments of such
Future Advance Holders or to reimburse the Issuer for losses related to the failure of the Future
Advance Holders to fund future advances in accordance with the terms of the related mortgage loan
documents, or (iii) taken some other action acceptable to the Rating Agencies (any such event, a
“Future Funding Failure”), amounts available to be distributed to the Certificateholder
pursuant to clause (32) of Section 11.1(a)(i), up to an aggregate amount of the Liquidity
Threshold (the “Future Funding Failure Amount”), instead shall be deposited into the
Liquidity Suspense Account until such time as all such failures to fund have been cured. Subject
to Section 7.19(a), amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Suspense Account (or any portion
thereof) will be paid (upon standing order of the Issuer) to the Owner Trustee for deposit into the
Certificate Distribution Account for distribution to the Certificateholder as payments of the
Certificate Distribution Amount on any date on which all such failures to fund have been cured (and
the Liquidity Test would be satisfied after such release and payment). For the avoidance of doubt,
if CapitalSource Inc., CapitalSource and CSE Mortgage takes one of the actions described in clause
(i) or (ii) above following the occurrence of a failure to fund, they or it, as the case may be,
will be permitted to terminate such Qualified Letter of Credit or guarantee or liquidate such
account, as the case may be, at any time thereafter when all such failures to fund have been cured.

     (c) Not later than ten (10) Business Days following any Quarterly Measurement Date (or, with
respect to the first Future Funding Schedule, within 30 days of the Closing Date), the Collateral
Manager shall deliver to S&P and Moody’s a schedule (the “Future 

 - 185 - 

 

Funding Schedule”) of the projected future fundings for all Third-Party Held Delayed
Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans for each quarter in the four quarter period
beginning on such Quarterly Measurement Date.

     The Trustee shall not enter into any such supplemental indenture if, as a result of such
supplemental indenture, the interests of any Holder of Securities would be materially and adversely
affected thereby or such action will cause the Noteholders to experience any material change to the
timing, character or source of the income from the Notes, unless the Majority of each and every
Class of Notes or the Certificateholder so affected have approved such Supplemental Indenture. The
Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel provided by and at the expense of the
party requesting such supplemental indenture in determining whether or not the Holders of
Securities would be adversely affected by such change (after giving notice of such change to the
Holders of Securities). Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and
future Holders of Securities. The Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in
good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee as described in
Section 8.3 hereof.

     Furthermore, the Trustee shall not enter into any such supplemental indenture unless the
Trustee has received an appropriate tax opinion from a nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel
experienced in such matters that (i) the modification will not cause the Noteholders to experience
any material change to the timing, character or source of the income from the Notes and (ii) the
proposed supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to be treated as other than a QRS or
other “pass through” entity for federal income tax purposes.

     Section 8.2. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Securityholders.

     Except as set forth below, with the written consent of (a) the holders of not less than
66-2/3%, in Aggregate Outstanding Amount (excluding any Collateral Manager Securities) of the Notes
of each Class and the Certificateholder if materially and adversely affected thereby by Act of said
Securityholders delivered to the Trustee and the Issuer, and (b) the consent of each Hedge
Counterparty that is materially and adversely affected thereby, the Trustee, the Issuer and the
Collateral Manager may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto to add any provisions
to, or change in any manner or eliminate any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modify in any
manner the rights of the Noteholders of such Class or the Certificateholder, as the case may be,
under this Indenture. Unless notified by Holders of a Majority (excluding any Notes owned by the
Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates, or by any accounts managed by them) of the Notes of
any Class that such Class of Notes will be materially and adversely affected, the Trustee may,
based on an Officer’s Certificate from the Collateral Manager or a written Opinion of Counsel,
determine whether or not such Class of Notes would be materially and adversely affected by such
change (after giving 15 Business Days’ notice of such change to the Holders of such Class of Notes,
Certificateholder and each Hedge Counterparty). The Trustee may, in reliance on an Officer’s
Certificate from the Collateral Manager or on a written Opinion of Counsel provided by and at the
expense of the party requesting such supplemental indenture, determine whether or not the
Noteholders and the Certificateholder would be adversely affected by such change (after giving
notice of such change to the Certificateholder). Such determinations shall be conclusive and
binding on all present and future Noteholders and the Certificateholder. The consent of the
Noteholders and the Certificateholder shall be binding on all present and future Noteholders and
Certificateholders.

     Without the consent of (x) each Hedge Counterparty (if any) (to the extent set forth in the
related Hedge Agreement) and (y) all of the Holders of each Class of Notes adversely

 - 188 - 

 

affected thereby and in each such case subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition,
no supplemental indenture may:

     (a) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of or the due date of any installment of
interest on the Notes or the Class A-1R Commitment Fee, reduce the principal amount thereof or the
rate of interest thereon or the Redemption Price with respect to any Note, change the date of any
scheduled distribution on the Certificate, or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, or change
the earliest date on which any Note may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer, change the
provisions of this Indenture that apply proceeds of any Assets to the payment of principal of,
interest, Class A-1R Commitment Fees or Class A-1R Breakage Costs on Notes or of distributions to
the Owner Trustee for the payment of distributions in respect of the Certificate or change any
place where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the principal thereof or interest
thereon, Class A-1R Commitment Fee or Class A-1R Breakage Costs are payable, or impair the right to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or,
in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

     (b) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Noteholders of each Class or
the notional amount of the Certificate of the Certificateholder whose consent is required for the
authorization of any supplemental indenture or for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions
of this Indenture or certain defaults thereunder or their consequences;

     (c) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Noteholders of each Class whose
consent is required to request the Trustee to preserve the Assets or rescind the Trustee’s election
to preserve the Assets or to sell or liquidate the Assets pursuant to this Indenture;

     (d) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture with respect to supplemental indentures
except (i) to increase the percentage of outstanding Notes whose holders’ consent is required for
any such action or (ii) to provide that other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or
waived without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby;

     (e) modify the definition of the term “Priority of Payments” set forth in this Indenture;

     (f) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the
requirement that the Issuer be treated as a QRS or other “pass-through” entity for federal income
tax purposes; or

     (g) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the
calculation of the amount of any payment of interest on or principal of any Note on any Payment
Date or of distributions to the Owner Trustee for the payment of distributions in respect of the
Certificate on any Payment Date (or any other date) or to affect the rights of the holders of
Securities to the benefit of any provisions for the redemption of such Securities contained
therein.

 - 189 - 

 

provided, however, that no supplemental indenture may reduce the permitted minimum denominations of
the Notes or modify any provisions regarding limited recourse or non-petition covenants with
respect to the Issuer.

     If any Class of Notes are Outstanding and rated by a Rating Agency, the Trustee shall not
enter into any such supplemental indenture if, as a result of such supplemental indenture, such
Rating Agency would cause the rating of any such Notes to be immediately reduced or withdrawn. At
the cost of the Issuer, for so long as any Class of Notes shall remain Outstanding and is rated by
a Rating Agency, the Trustee shall provide to such Rating Agency a copy of any proposed
supplemental indenture at least fifteen (15) days prior to the execution thereof by the Trustee,
and, for so long as such Notes are Outstanding and so rated, request written confirmation that such
Rating Agency will not, as a result of such supplemental indenture, cause the rating of any such
Class of Notes to be reduced or withdrawn.

     The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel provided by and at the
expense of the party requesting such supplemental indenture in determining whether or not the
Holders of Securities would be adversely affected by such change (after giving notice of such
change to the Holders of Securities). Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all
present and future Holders of Securities. The Trustee shall not be liable for any such
determination made in good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the
Trustee as described in Section 8.3 hereof.

     It shall not be necessary for any Act of Securityholders under this Section 8.2 to
approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if
such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

     Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, shall mail to the
Securityholders, each Hedge Counterparty, the Class A-1R Note Agent, the Owner Trustee, the
Collateral Manager, and, so long as the Notes are Outstanding and so rated, each Rating Agency a
copy thereof based on an outstanding rating. Any failure of the Trustee to publish or mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any
such supplemental indenture.

     Section 8.3. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

     In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article 8 or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this
Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or
permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied. The
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which
affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. The
Collateral Manager will be bound to follow any amendment or supplement to this Indenture of which
it has received written notice at least ten Business Days prior to the execution and delivery of
such amendment or supplement; provided, however, that with respect to any amendment or supplement
to this Indenture which may, in the judgment of the Collateral Manager adversely

 - 190 - 

 

affect the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Manager shall not be bound (and the Issuer
agrees that it will not permit any such amendment to become effective) unless the Collateral
Manager gives written consent to the Trustee, the Class A-1R Note Agent and the Issuer to such
amendment. The Issuer and the Trustee shall give written notice to the Collateral Manager of any
amendment made to this Indenture pursuant to its terms. In addition, the Collateral Manager’s
written consent shall be required prior to any amendment to this Indenture by which it is adversely
affected.

     Section 8.4. Effect of Supplemental Indentures.

     Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article 8, this Indenture
shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of
this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Notes and the Certificateholder theretofore
and thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

     Section 8.5. Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.

     Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant
to this Article 8 may, and if required by the Trustee shall, bear a notice in form approved
by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer shall
so determine, new Notes, so modified as to conform in the opinion of the Trustee and the Issuer to
any such supplemental indenture, may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

ARTICLE 9.

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES; REDEMPTION PROCEDURES

     Section 9.1. Clean-up Call; Tax Redemption and Optional Redemption.

     (a) The Notes may be redeemed at the option of and at the direction of the Certificateholder
or the Collateral Manager, in the latter case, unless the Certificateholder objects, in whole but
not in part, on any Payment Date (the “Clean-up Call Date”), on or after the Payment Date
on which the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes has been reduced to 15% of the of the Notes
on the Closing Date, each at a price equal to the applicable Redemption Price (such redemption, a
“Clean-up Call”); provided that any payments due and payable upon a termination of each
Hedge Agreement will be made on the Clean-up Call Date in accordance with the terms thereof and
this Indenture; and provided, further, that the funds available to be used for such Clean-up Call
will be sufficient to pay the Total Redemption Price.

     (b) The Notes and the Certificate shall be redeemable, in whole but not in part, by an Act of
the Certificateholder delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Manager, on the Payment Date (the
“Tax Redemption Date”) following the occurrence of a Tax Event and satisfaction of the Tax
Materiality Condition at a price equal to the applicable Redemption Price (such redemption, a
“Tax Redemption”); provided that any payments due and payable upon a termination of each
Hedge Agreement will be made in accordance with the terms thereof and this Indenture; and provided,
further, the funds available to be used for such Tax Redemption will be sufficient to pay the Total
Redemption Price. Upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Issuer, at

 - 191 - 

 

the direction of the Collateral Manager shall provide written notice thereof to the Trustee,
the Irish Paying Agent (for so long as any Notes (other than the Class A-1R Notes) are listed on
the Irish Stock Exchange), the Class A-1R Note Agent, each Hedge Counterparty and each Rating
Agency.

     (c) The Notes and the Certificate shall be redeemable, in whole but not in part, at a price
equal to the applicable Redemption Price, on any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date
occurring in January 2010 at the direction of the Issuer (such redemption, an “Optional
Redemption”) (i) by Act of the Certificateholder delivered to the Trustee, or (ii) at the
direction of the Collateral Manager unless the Certificateholder objects; provided, however, that
any payments due and payable upon a termination of each Hedge Agreement will be made in accordance
with the terms thereof and this Indenture; and provided, further, that the funds available to be
used for such Optional Redemption will be sufficient to pay the Total Redemption Price. In the
event that an Optional Redemption occurs on or prior to the Payment Date occurring in January 2012,
the Redemption Price for the Class A-2A Notes will include the Make-Whole Premium.

     (d) The election by the Collateral Manager to redeem the Notes pursuant to a Clean-up Call
shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate from the Collateral Manager directing the Trustee to
make the payment to the Paying Agent of the applicable Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be
redeemed from funds in the Payment Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments. In
connection with a Tax Redemption, the occurrence of a Tax Event and satisfaction of the Tax
Materiality Condition shall be evidenced by an Issuer Order from the Issuer or from the Collateral
Manager on behalf of the Issuer certifying that such conditions for a Tax Redemption have occurred.
The election by the Collateral Manager to redeem the Notes pursuant to an Optional Redemption
shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate from the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer
certifying that the conditions for an Optional Redemption have occurred.

     (e) A redemption pursuant to Sections 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(c) shall
not occur unless (1) (i) at least six (6) Business Days before the scheduled Redemption Date, the
Collateral Manager shall have certified to the Trustee that the Collateral Manager on behalf of the
Issuer has entered into a binding agreement or agreements, with (A) one or more financial
institutions whose long-term unsecured debt obligations (other than such obligations whose rating
is based on the credit of a person other than such institution) have a credit rating from each
Rating Agency of at least equal to the highest rating of any Notes then Outstanding or whose
short-term unsecured debt obligations have a credit rating of “P-1” by Moody’s as long as the term
of such agreement is ninety (90) day or less and “A-1” by S&P or (B) one or more Affiliates of the
Collateral Manager, to sell all or part of the Pledged Obligations, not later than the Business Day
immediately preceding the scheduled Redemption Date or (ii) the Trustee shall have received written
confirmation that the method of redemption satisfies the Rating Agency Condition and (2) the
related Sale Proceeds (in immediately available funds), together with all other available funds
(including proceeds from the sale of the Assets, Eligible Investments maturing on or prior to the
scheduled Redemption Date, all amounts in the Collection Accounts and available Cash), shall be an
aggregate amount sufficient to pay all amounts, payments, fees and expenses in accordance with the
Priority of Payments due and owing on such Redemption Date.

 - 192 - 

 

     Section 9.2. Auction Call Redemption.

     (a) During the period from and including the Payment Date occurring in January 2017 and to but
not including the first Payment Date on which the Clean-up Call may be exercised (the “Auction
Call Period”), the Notes and the Certificate shall be redeemed, in whole but not in part, if a
Successful Auction is completed (such redemption, an “Auction Call Redemption”), at their
applicable Redemption Prices; provided that any payments due and payable upon a termination of each
Hedge Agreement will be made on the Auction Call Redemption Date in accordance with the terms
thereof and this Indenture; and provided, further, that the funds available to be used for such
Auction Call Redemption will be sufficient to pay the Total Redemption Price. An Auction Call
Redemption may only occur on a Payment Date occurring in January or July during the Auction Call
Period (such Payment Date, the “Auction Call Redemption Date”).

     (b) Subject to Section 12.4, the Trustee shall sell and transfer the Collateral
Obligations to the highest bidder for all of the Collateral Obligations (or to each highest bidder
for one or more (but not all) of the Collateral Obligations), at the Auction, as long as:

     (i) the Auction has been conducted in accordance with the Auction Procedures,
as evidenced by a certification of the Collateral Manager;

     (ii) at least one bidder delivers to the Collateral Manager a bid (which bid
may be based upon a fixed spread above or below a generally recognized price index)
for (x) the purchase of all of the Collateral Obligations or (y) the purchase of
each Collateral Obligation (which bid may be for one or more (but not all) of the
Collateral Obligations);

     (iii) based on the Collateral Manager’s certification to the Trustee of the
amount of the cash purchase price of each bid, the Trustee, in consultation with the
Collateral Manager, determines that the Highest Auction Price would result in a cash
purchase price for the Collateral Obligations which, together with the balance of
all Eligible Investments and Cash in the Collection Accounts, the Payment Account,
each Hedge Counterparty Account and the Expense Account, will be at least equal to
the Total Redemption Price; and

     (iv) each bidder who offered the Highest Auction Price for all of the
Collateral Obligations or for one or more of the Collateral Obligations enters into
a written agreement with the Issuer (which the Issuer shall execute if the
conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above are satisfied) obligating
the highest bidder for all of the Collateral Obligations (or the highest bidder for
one or more (but not all) of the Collateral Obligations) to purchase all (either
individually or together with other bidders, as applicable) of the Collateral
Obligations with the closing of such purchase (and full payment in Cash to the
Trustee) to occur on or before the tenth Business Day prior to the scheduled
Redemption Date.

 - 193 - 

 

     (c) If any of the foregoing conditions is not met with respect to any Auction, or if the
highest bidder or the Collateral Manager, as the case may be, fails to pay the purchase price on or
before the sixth (6th) Business Day following the relevant Auction Date, (i) the Auction
Call Redemption shall not occur on the Payment Date following the relevant Auction Date, (ii) the
Trustee shall give notice of the withdrawal pursuant to Section 9.3, (iii) subject to
subclause (iv) below, the Trustee shall decline to consummate such sale and shall not solicit any
further bids or otherwise negotiate any further sale of Collateral Obligations in relation to such
Auction and (iv) unless the Notes and the Certificate are redeemed in full prior to the next
succeeding Auction Date, or the Collateral Manager notifies the Trustee that market conditions are
such that such Auction is not likely to be successful, the Trustee shall conduct another Auction on
the next succeeding Auction Date.

     Section 9.3. Notice of Redemption.

     (a) In connection with an Optional Redemption, a Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption pursuant to
Section 9.1 or an Auction Call Redemption pursuant to Section 9.2, the Trustee on
behalf of the Issuer shall (i) set the applicable Record Date and (ii) at least thirty (30) days
prior to the proposed Redemption Date, notify the Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the
Class A-1R Note Agent, the Owner Trustee, the Rating Agencies and the Certificateholder at such
Certificateholder’s address in the register maintained by the share registrar, of such proposed
Redemption Date, the applicable Record Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed on such
Redemption Date and the Redemption Price of such Notes in accordance with Section 9.1 or
Section 9.2. The Redemption Price shall be determined no earlier than 60 days prior to the
proposed Redemption Date.

     (b) Any such notice of an Auction Call Redemption, an Optional Redemption, a Clean-up Call or
a Tax Redemption may be withdrawn by the Issuer at the direction of the party that initiates such
redemption up to the fourth Business Day prior to the scheduled Redemption Date by written notice
to the Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Irish Paying Agent (for so long as any Notes (other than the
Class A-1R Notes) are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange), the Class A-1R Note Agent, each Hedge
Counterparty, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, and the Collateral Manager only if (i) in the
case of an Optional Redemption, a Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption the Collateral Manager is
unable to deliver the sale agreement or agreements or certifications referred to in Section
9.1(e), as the case may be or (ii) in the case of an Auction Call Redemption, the Auction is
unable to be consummated pursuant to the Auction Procedures.

     Section 9.4. Notice of Redemption or Maturity by the Issuer.

     Notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.1, Section 9.2 or the Maturity of
any Notes shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than ten (10)
Business Days prior to the applicable Redemption Date or Maturity, to each Holder of Notes to be
redeemed, at its address in the Notes Register. In addition, so long as any Notes (other than the
Class A-1R Notes) are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange, notice of redemption or Maturity shall be
published in the Irish Stock Exchange’s Daily Official List or as otherwise required by the rules
of the Irish Stock Exchange not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the applicable Redemption
Date or Maturity.

- 194 -

 

     All notices of redemption shall state:

     (a) the applicable Redemption Date;

     (b) the applicable Redemption Price;

     (c) that all the Notes are being paid in full and all Class A-1R Commitments shall terminate,
and that interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on the Redemption Date specified in the
notice; and

     (d) the place or places where such Notes to be redeemed in whole are to be surrendered for
payment of the Redemption Price which shall be the office or agency of the Paying Agent as provided
in Section 7.2.

     Notice of redemption shall be given by the Issuer, or at its request, by the Trustee in its
names and at the expense of the Issuer. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect
therein, to any Holder of any Note shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any
other Notes.

     Section 9.5. Notes Payable on Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes to be redeemed shall, on the
Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified and all Class
A-1R Commitments shall terminate, and from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Issuer shall
Default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) the Notes shall cease to bear
interest on the Redemption Date. Upon final payment on a Note to be redeemed, the Holder shall
present and surrender such Note at the place specified in the notice of redemption on or prior to
such Redemption Date; provided, however, that if there is delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee
such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless (an unsecured
indemnity agreement delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee by an institutional investor with a net
worth of at least $200,000,000 being deemed to satisfy such security or indemnity requirement) and
an undertaking thereafter to surrender such Note, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer and
the Trustee that the applicable Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, such final payment
shall be made without presentation or surrender. Payments of interest on Notes of a Class so to be
redeemed whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the
Holders of such Notes, or one or more predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of
business on the relevant Record Date according to the terms and provisions of Section
2.7(o).

     If any Note called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the
principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the applicable Note
Interest Rate for each successive Interest Accrual Period the Note remains Outstanding.

     Section 9.6. Mandatory Redemption.

     On any Payment Date on which any of the Coverage Tests applicable to any Class of Notes is not
met on the most recent Measurement Date, the Notes shall be redeemed (a

- 195 -

 

“Mandatory Redemption”), first from Interest Proceeds and then from Principal Proceeds
(and prior to the Commitment Termination Time, for deposit into the Class A-1R Suspense Account) in
each case in accordance with the Priority of Payments in an amount necessary, and only to the
extent necessary, to cause each of the Coverage Tests to be satisfied. Further, each Hedge
Agreement will be terminated in part in accordance with the terms thereof and any payments due and
payable on the Hedge Agreement in connection with the termination of the Hedge Agreement will be
made on such Payment Date in accordance with the terms thereof and this Indenture, including
satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. Such Principal Proceeds and Interest Proceeds shall
be applied to each of the outstanding Classes of Notes in accordance with its relative seniority
(and prior to the Commitment Termination Time, for deposit into the Class A-1R Suspense Account) in
accordance with the Priority of Payments. On or promptly after such Mandatory Redemption, the
Issuer shall certify or cause to be certified to each of the Rating Agencies and the Trustee
whether the Coverage Tests have been met.

     Section 9.7. Special Amortization.

     The Notes (other than the Class K Notes) shall be amortized in part by the Issuer if, at any
time during the Replenishment Period, the Collateral Manager has been unable, for a period of at
least 120 consecutive days, to identify Collateral Obligations that it determines would be
appropriate and would meet the Eligibility Criteria in sufficient amounts to permit the
reinvestment of all or a portion of the Principal Proceeds then on deposit in the Principal
Collection Account and the amounts on deposit in the Unused Proceeds Account in additional
Collateral Obligations and the Collateral Manager determines that, in light of general market
conditions or other factors, investments in additional appropriate Collateral Obligations within
the foreseeable future are unlikely. The Collateral Manager shall notify the Trustee, the Class
A-1R Note Agent, the Issuer and each Hedge Counterparty of such election (a “Special
Amortization”) and the amount of Notes to be amortized (such amount, the “Special
Amortization Amount”). On the first Payment Date following the date on which such notice is
given (provided such notice is given on or prior to the Determination Date with respect to such
Payment Date), the Special Amortization Amount will be applied to amortize the Notes (other than
the Class K Notes) in accordance with the Priority of Payments (x) on a pro rata basis among all
Classes of Notes (other than the Class K Notes) (without regard to any Capitalized Interest and
assuming for purposes of the pro rata allocation to the Class A Notes, that the Class A-1R Notes
are fully drawn, but allocating the amounts between the Class A-1A Notes and the Class A-1R Notes
as described in the Priority of Payments), if each of the S&P Special Amortization Pro Rata
Condition and the Moody’s Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition is satisfied with respect to the
related Payment Date and each of the Coverage Tests was satisfied as of the related Determination
Date, or (y) sequentially among all Classes of Notes (other than the Class K Notes) (and any
Required Class A-1R Suspense Account Deposit, to the Class A-1R Suspense Account), if either the
S&P Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition or the Moody’s Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition
is not satisfied with respect to the related Payment Date or any of the Coverage Tests were not
satisfied as of the related Determination Date; provided, however, that all amounts representing
recoveries in respect of Defaulted Securities will be distributed sequentially in any event, in
accordance with Section 11.1(a)(ii)(11).

Sections 10.2(d), 10.2(e) and 11.2, all such property, together with any
securities in which funds included in such property are or will be invested or reinvested during
the term of this Indenture, and any income or other gain realized from such investments, shall be

withdrawal as provided in this Section 10.2. Subject to Section 10.2(e) by Issuer
Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, on
behalf of the Issuer, shall at all times direct the Trustee to, and, upon receipt of such Issuer
Order, the Trustee shall, invest all funds received by the Trustee into the Collection Accounts
during a Due Period, and amounts received by the Trustee in prior Due Periods and retained in the
Collection Accounts, as so directed in Eligible Investments having stated maturities no later than
the Business Day immediately preceding the next Payment Date. The Trustee, within one Business Day
after receipt of any Scheduled Distribution or other proceeds in respect of the Assets which is not
Cash, shall so notify the Issuer and the Collateral Manager and the Issuer, or the Collateral
Manager on behalf of the Issuer, shall, within five Business Days of receipt of such notice from
the Trustee, sell such Scheduled Distribution or other non-Cash proceeds for Cash in an arm’s
length transaction to a Person which is not an Affiliate of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager
and deposit the proceeds thereof in the applicable Collection Account for investment pursuant to
this Section 10.2; provided, however, that the Issuer, or the Collateral Manager on behalf
of the Issuer, need not sell such Scheduled Distributions or other non-Cash proceeds if it delivers
an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee certifying that such Scheduled Distributions or other
proceeds constitute Collateral Obligations or Eligible Investments.

     (c) If prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer, or the Collateral Manager
on behalf of the Issuer, shall not have given any investment directions pursuant to Section
10.2(b), the Trustee shall seek instructions from the Issuer, or the Collateral Manager on
behalf of the Issuer, within three Business Days after transfer of such funds to the applicable
Collection Account. If the Trustee does not thereupon receive written instructions from the
Issuer, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer, within five Business Days after transfer
of such funds to the applicable Collection Account, it shall invest and reinvest the funds held in
the applicable Collection Account in one or more Eligible Investments described in clause (ii) of
the definition of Eligible Investments maturing no later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the next Payment Date. If after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer, or
the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer, shall not have given investment directions to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 10.2(b) for three consecutive days, the Trustee shall invest
and reinvest such Monies as fully as practicable in Eligible Investments described in clause (ii)
of the definition of Eligible Investments maturing not later than the earlier of (i) 30 days after
the date of such investment or (ii) the Business Day immediately preceding the next Payment Date.
All interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited in the applicable Collection
Account, any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to the applicable Collection
Account, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the applicable Collection
Account. The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable (except as a result of negligence,
willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any insufficiency of such applicable Collection
Account resulting from any loss relating to any such investment, except with respect to investments
in obligations of the Trustee or any Affiliate thereof.

     (d) During the Replenishment Period (and thereafter to the extent necessary to acquire
Collateral Obligations pursuant to contracts entered into during the Replenishment Period), the
Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon
receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, reinvest Principal Proceeds in Collateral
Obligations selected by the Collateral Manager as permitted under and in accordance with the
requirements of Article 12 and such Issuer Order.

     (e) The Trustee shall transfer to the Payment Account for application pursuant to Section
11.1(a) and in accordance with the calculations and the instructions contained in the Notes
Valuation Report prepared by the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to Section
10.12(e), on or prior to the Business Day prior to each Payment Date, any amounts then held in
the Collection Accounts other than (i) Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds received by the
Trustee after the end of the Due Period with respect to such Payment Date and (ii) amounts that the
Issuer is entitled to reinvest in accordance with Section 12.2 and which the Issuer so
elects to reinvest in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.

     Section 10.3. Payment Account.

     (a) The Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Payment Account,” which shall be held in trust for the benefit of
the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty and over which the Trustee shall have exclusive control
and the sole right of withdrawal. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the
credit of, the Payment Account shall be held in trust by the Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders. Except as provided in Sections 11.1 and 11.2, the only permitted
withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment
Account shall be (i) to pay the interest on and the principal of the Notes and make other payments
in respect of the Notes in accordance with their terms and the provisions of this Indenture, (ii)
to pay the Owner Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Distribution Account for distributions to
the Certificateholder in accordance with the terms and the provisions of this Indenture, (iii) upon
Issuer Order, to pay other amounts specified herein, and (iv) otherwise to pay amounts payable
pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, each in accordance with the
Priority of Payments. The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware
that the Payment Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Payment
Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or
similar process. The Issuer shall have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Payment
Account other than in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The Payment Account shall remain
at all times with the Corporate Trust Office or a financial institution having a long-term debt
rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “BBB+” or “A2,” as applicable, or a short-term debt
rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “A-1,” “P-1” or “F1,” as applicable. Amounts in
the Payment Account shall not be invested.

     Section 10.4. Unused Proceeds Account.

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Unused Proceeds Account” which shall be held in trust in the name
of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, into which the amount specified in Section
3.2(g) shall be deposited. All Monies deposited from time to time in the

- 199 -

 

Unused Proceeds Account pursuant to this Indenture shall be held by the Trustee as part of the
Assets and shall be applied to the purposes herein provided.

     (b) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the Unused
Proceeds Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Unused Proceeds
Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or
similar process. The Unused Proceeds Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust
Office of a financial institution having a long-term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least
equal to “BBB+” or “A2,” as applicable, or a short-term debt rating at least equal to “A-1,” “P-1”
or “F1,” as applicable.

     (c) During the Replenishment Period, amounts on deposit in the Unused Proceeds Account may or
shall be designated by the Collateral Manager as Special Amortization Amounts to be included as
Principal Proceeds pursuant to Section 9.7. If the sum of (A) the Aggregate Principal
Balance of the Collateral Obligations plus (B) the Aggregate Class A-1R Undrawn Amount exceeds the
Minimum Ramp-Up Amount on the Effective Date, amounts remaining on deposit in the Unused Proceeds
Account at the end of the Ramp-Up Period not to exceed an amount equal to 15% of the Initial
Deposit may, at the option of the Collateral Manager and provided no Rating Confirmation Failure
shall have occurred, be designated as Interest Proceeds. Any such election will be made on a
one-time basis and must be made by written notice to the Trustee not later than the twentieth
(20th) Business Day after the Effective Date, which notice shall set forth any such amounts in the
Unused Proceeds Account so designated (and any interest or earnings thereon). Upon receipt of such
notice, the Trustee shall transfer such amount to the Interest Collection Account (for subsequent
transfer to the Payment Account), which will be treated as Interest Proceeds and applied in
accordance with the Priority of Payments. Any amounts remaining in the Unused Proceeds Account on
the twentieth (20th) Business Day after the Effective Date, to the extent not designated as
Interest Proceeds and provided that a Ratings Confirmation Failure has not occurred, shall be
transferred by the Trustee to the Principal Collection Account (for subsequent transfer to the
Payment Account) and treated as Principal Proceeds and applied in accordance with the Priority of
Payments.

     (d) If a Rating Confirmation Failure occurs, upon receipt of notice from the Collateral
Manager pursuant to Section 7.18, the Trustee shall transfer amounts in the Unused Proceeds
Account to the Payment Account for application on the immediately following Payment Date to pay
principal of the Notes, first, to the payment of principal of the Class A Notes as described under
Section 11.1(g) (and any Required Class A-1R Suspense Account Deposit to the Class A-1R
Suspense Account), second, the payment of principal of the Class B Notes, third, the payment of
principal of the Class C Notes, fourth, the payment of principal of the Class D Notes, fifth, the
payment of principal of the Class E Notes, sixth, the payment of principal of the Class F Notes,
seventh, the payment of principal of the Class G Notes, eight, the payment of principal of the
Class H Notes, ninth, the payment of principal of the Class J Notes and tenth, the payment of
principal of the Class K Notes, in each case until the ratings assigned on the Closing Date to each
Class of Notes have been reinstated or such Class has been paid in full. Any excess amount shall
be treated as Principal Proceeds and applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments. If no
Ratings Confirmation Failure occurs, to the extent the Collateral Manager has not identified such
amounts as Interest Proceeds pursuant to Section 10.4(c), the Trustee shall transfer the
amounts on deposit in the Unused Proceeds Account to the Principal

- 200 -

 

Collection Account, and such amounts will be treated as Principal Proceeds and applied in
accordance with the Priority of Payments.

     (e) During the Ramp-Up Period, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer)
may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall,
apply amounts on deposit in the Unused Proceeds Account to acquire Collateral Obligations selected
by the Collateral Manager as permitted under and in accordance with the requirements of Section
7.17 and such Issuer Order.

     (f) To the extent not applied pursuant to Section 7.17, the Collateral Manager on
behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such direction the Trustee shall, invest
all funds in the Unused Proceeds Account in Eligible Investments designated by the Collateral
Manager. All interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited in the Unused
Proceeds Account, any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to the Unused Proceeds
Account, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the Unused Proceeds
Account. The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable (except as a result of negligence,
willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any insufficiency of the Unused Proceeds Account
resulting from any loss relating to any such investment, except with respect to investments in
obligations of the Trustee or any Affiliate thereof. If the Trustee does not receive investment
instructions from an Authorized Officer of the Collateral Manager, the Trustee may invest funds
received in the Unused Proceeds Account in Eligible Investments of the type described in clause
(ii) of the definition thereto.

     (g) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish a subaccount of the Unused Proceeds
Account (the “Unused Proceeds Subaccount”) and credit an amount equal to the Liquidity
Threshold. As directed by the Collateral Manager, amounts credited thereto may be released from
the lien of this Indenture and paid to Future Advance Holders to satisfy the additional funding
commitments of the Future Advance Holders. At any time prior to the Effective Date, the Collateral
Manager may direct the Trustee to terminate the Unused Proceeds Subaccount and credit any amounts
remaining on deposit therein to the Unused Proceeds Account. For the avoidance of doubt, amounts
on deposit in the Unused Proceeds Subaccount shall not be included in the Assets securing the
Notes.

     Section 10.5. Delayed Funding Obligations Account.

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Delayed Funding Obligations Account” which shall be held in trust
in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty, into
which Delayed Funding Obligations Account the Trustee shall deposit funds for any additional
funding commitments of the Issuer under any Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans or Issuer Held Revolving
Loans included in the Collateral Obligations. All amounts in the Delayed Funding Obligations
Account shall be deposited in overnight funds in Eligible Investments and released to fulfill such
commitments in each case, as directed by the Collateral Manager. If an Issuer Held Delayed Draw
Loan or Issuer Held Revolving Loan is sold or otherwise disposed before the full commitment
thereunder has been drawn, or if excess funds remain following the termination of the funding
obligation giving rise to the deposit of such funds in the Delayed Funding Obligations Account,
such Eligible Investments on deposit in the

- 201 -

 

Delayed Funding Obligations Account for the purpose of fulfilling such commitment shall be
transferred to the Principal Collection Account as Principal Proceeds. The Delayed Funding
Obligations Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office or a financial
institution having a long-term debt rating from each Rating Agency at least equal to “BBB+” or
“A2,” as applicable, or a short-term debt rating at least equal to “A-1,” “P-1” or “F-1,” as
applicable.

     (b) Funds in the Delayed Funding Obligations Account shall be available solely to fulfill any
additional funding commitments under any Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans or Issuer Held Revolving
Loans included in the Collateral Obligations, and only funds in the Delayed Funding Obligations
Account shall be used for such purpose. Upon the purchase of any Collateral Obligation that is an
Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loan or Issuer Held Revolving Loan, the Collateral Manager shall direct
the Trustee to deposit Principal Proceeds or amounts in the Unused Proceeds Account into the
Delayed Funding Obligation Account in an amount equal to the Issuer’s maximum future funding
obligation under the terms of such Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loan or Issuer Held Revolving Loan, and
the Principal Proceeds so deposited shall be considered part of the purchase price of such Issuer
Held Delayed Draw Loan or Issuer Held Revolving Loan for purposes of Article 12. The
Collateral Manager shall not permit the amounts then on deposit in the Delayed Funding Obligation
Account to be less than the aggregate amount of all future funding obligations outstanding under
the terms of all Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans and Issuer Held Revolving Loans that constitute
Collateral Obligations.

     (c) The Collateral Manager shall direct the Trustee on or before the related Determination
Date to withdraw funds from the Delayed Funding Obligation Account to fund amounts drawn under any
Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loan or Issuer Held Revolving Loan. Pursuant to an Issuer Order, all or a
portion of the funds, as specified in such Issuer Order, on deposit in the Delayed Funding
Obligation Account at any time in excess of the aggregate principal amount of commitments which may
be drawn upon under the Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans and Issuer Held Revolving Loans shall be
transferred by the Trustee to the Collection Account as Principal Proceeds.

     Section 10.6. Expense Account.

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Expense Account” which shall be held in trust in the name of the
Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty. The only permitted
withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise standing to the credit of, the
Expense Account shall be to pay (on any day other than a Payment Date) accrued and unpaid Company
Administrative Expenses of the Issuer (other than accrued and unpaid expenses and indemnities
payable to the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement). On or after the
Effective Date, any amount remaining in the Expense Account may, at the election of the Collateral
Manager be designated as Interest Proceeds. On the date on which substantially all of the Issuer’s
assets have been sold or otherwise disposed of, the Issuer by Issuer Order executed by an
Authorized Officer of the Collateral Manager shall direct the Trustee to, and, upon receipt of such
Issuer Order, the Trustee shall, transfer all amounts on deposit in the Expense Account to the
Interest Collection Account for application pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i) as Interest
Proceeds. Amounts credited to the Expense Account

- 202 -

 

may be applied on or prior to the Determination Date preceding the first Payment Date to pay
amounts due in connection with the offering of the Notes.

     (b) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the
Expense Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Expense Account,
shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar
process. The Issuer shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Expense
Account. The Expense Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office of a
financial institution having a long-term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “BBB+”
or “Baa1,” as applicable.

     (c) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such
direction the Trustee shall, invest all funds in the Expense Account in Eligible Investments
designated by the Collateral Manager. All interest and other income from such investments shall be
deposited in the Expense Account, any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to the
Expense Account, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the Expense
Account. The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable (except as a result of negligence,
willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any insufficiency of such Expense Account resulting
from any loss relating to any such investment, except with respect to investments in obligations of
the Trustee or any Affiliate thereof. If the Trustee does not receive investment instructions from
an Authorized Officer of the Collateral Manager, the Trustee may invest funds received in the
Expense Account in Eligible Investments of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition
thereto.

     Section 10.7. Class A-1R Suspense Account

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated the “Class A-1R Suspense Account” which shall be held in trust in the
name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty. On any Payment
Date, the Trustee will deposit into the Class A-1R Suspense Account, the Required Class A-1R
Suspense Account Deposit. At the direction of the Collateral Manager, the Issuer may by Issuer
Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of the Issuer Order the Trustee shall, transfer all
amounts on deposit in the Class A-1R Suspense Account, if any, for one or more of the following
purposes, subject to the limitations set forth in this Indenture: (i) during the Replenishment
Period, as Class A-1R Prepayments, (ii) for deposit into the Delayed Funding Obligations Account to
fund future advances with respect to Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans or Issuer Held Revolving Loans,
or (iii) on any Payment Date, as Principal Proceeds for application in accordance with the Priority
of Payments (provided that any Issuer Order instructing the Trustee to apply such amounts as
Principal Proceeds on any Payment Date will be delivered no later than the related Determination
Date). If no Issuer Order is delivered to the Trustee prior to a Determination Date, the Trustee
shall transfer all amounts on deposit in the Class A-1R Suspense Account, if any, to the Principal
Collection Account for application in accordance with the Priority of Payments as Principal
Proceeds on the related Payment Date. At the Commitment Termination Time, amounts on deposit in
the Class A-1R Suspense Account will be transferred to the Principal Collection Account for
application in accordance with the Priority of Payments as Principal Proceeds on the related
Payment Date.

- 203 -

 

     (b) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the Class
A-1R Suspense Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Class A-1R
Suspense Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment,
execution or similar process. The Issuer shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial
interest in the Class A-1R Suspense Account. The Class A-1R Suspense Account shall remain at all
times with the Corporate Trust Office of a financial institution having a long term debt rating by
each Rating Agency at least equal to “A” or “A2,” as applicable, and a short term debt rating at
least equal to “A-1” or “P-1” or “F1,” as applicable.

     (c) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such
direction the Trustee shall, invest all funds in the Class A-1R Suspense Account in Eligible
Investments designated by the Collateral Manager. All interest and other income from such
investments shall be deposited in the Class A-1R Suspense Account, any gain realized from such
investments shall be credited to the Class A-1R Suspense Account, and any loss resulting from such
investments shall be charged to the Class A-1R Suspense Account. The Trustee shall not in any way
be held liable (except as a result of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any
insufficiency of such Class A-1R Suspense Account resulting from any loss relating to any such
investment, except with respect to investments in obligations of the Trustee or any Affiliate
thereof. If the Trustee does not receive investment instructions from an Authorized Officer of the
Collateral Manager, the Trustee may invest funds received in the Class A-1R Suspense Account in
Eligible Investments of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition thereto.

     Section 10.8. Liquidity Suspense Account

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Liquidity Suspense Account” which shall be held in trust in the
name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Future Advance Holders. On any Payment Date on which a
Liquidity Test Failure or a Future Funding Failure has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall release from the lien of this Indenture and deposit into the Liquidity Suspense Account all
amounts available to be distributed pursuant to clause (32) under of Section 11.1(a)(i)
until such Liquidity Test Failure or such Future Funding Failure, as the case may be, is cured. At
the direction of the Collateral Manager, the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and
upon receipt of the Issuer Order, the Trustee shall, transfer all amounts on deposit in the
Liquidity Suspense Account, if any, to the Future Advance Holders to satisfy the additional
commitments in respect of one or more Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans or Third-Party Held
Revolving Loans or reimburse the Issuer for losses related to the failure to fund such future
funding commitments in accordance with the related Underlying Instruments. Amounts on deposit in
the Liquidity Suspense Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments as set forth herein.
Subject to Section 7.19 hereof, Amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Suspense Account (or
any portion thereof) shall be released and paid (upon standing order of the Issuer) to the Owner
Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Distribution Account for distribution to the
Certificateholder as payments of the Certificate Distribution Amount on any date on which no Future
Funding Failures have occurred and are continuing the Liquidity Test would be satisfied after such
release and payment. For the avoidance of doubt, amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Suspense
Account shall not be included in the Assets securing the Notes.

- 204 -

 

     (b) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the
Liquidity Suspense Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the
Liquidity Suspense Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of
attachment, execution or similar process. The Issuer shall not have any legal, equitable or
beneficial interest in the Liquidity Suspense Account. The Liquidity Suspense Account shall remain
at all times with the Corporate Trust Office of a financial institution having a long term debt
rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “A” or “A2,” as applicable, and a short term debt
rating at least equal to “A-1” or “P-1” or “F1,” as applicable.

     (c) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such
direction the Trustee shall, invest all funds in the Liquidity Suspense Account in Eligible
Investments designated by the Collateral Manager. All interest and other income from such
investments shall be deposited in the Liquidity Suspense Account, any gain realized from such
investments shall be credited to the Liquidity Suspense Account, and any loss resulting from such
investments shall be charged to the Liquidity Suspense Account. The Trustee shall not in any way
be held liable (except as a result of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any
insufficiency of such Liquidity Suspense Account resulting from any loss relating to any such
investment, except with respect to investments in obligations of the Trustee or any Affiliate
thereof. If the Trustee does not receive investment instructions from an Authorized Officer of the
Collateral Manager, the Trustee may invest funds received in the Liquidity Suspense Account in
Eligible Investments of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition thereto.

     Section 10.9. Future Funding Reserve Account

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Future Funding Reserve Account” which shall be held in trust in
the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Future Advance Holders. From time to time, the
Future Advance Holders (or one or more other entities on their behalf) may contribute to the Issuer
amounts for deposit into the Future Funding Reserve Account. The Trustee shall deposit into the
Future Funding Reserve Account all amounts so received by the Issuer. At the direction of the
Collateral Manager, the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of the
Issuer Order, the Trustee shall, transfer all amounts on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve
Account, if any, to the Future Advance Holders to satisfy the additional commitments in respect of
one or more Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans or Third-Party Held Revolving Loans or reimburse
the Issuer for losses related to the failure to fund such future funding commitments in accordance
with the related Underlying Instruments. Amounts on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account
shall be invested in Permitted Investments. Amounts on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve
Account (or any portion thereof) shall be released and paid to the Future Advance Holders (or their
designees) on any date on which the Future Funding Reserve Test would be satisfied after such
release and payment. For the avoidance of doubt, amounts on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve
Account shall not be included in the Assets securing the Notes.

     (b) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the Future
Funding Reserve Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Future
Funding Reserve Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment,

- 205 -

 

warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Issuer shall not have any legal,
equitable or beneficial interest in the Future Funding Reserve Account. The Future Funding Reserve
Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office of a financial institution having
a long term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “A” or “A2,” as applicable, and a
short term debt rating at least equal to “A-1” or “P-1” or “F1,” as applicable.

     (c) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such
direction the Trustee shall, invest all funds in the Future Funding Reserve Account in Eligible
Investments designated by the Collateral Manager. All interest and other income from such
investments shall be deposited in the Future Funding Reserve Account, any gain realized from such
investments shall be credited to the Future Funding Reserve Account, and any loss resulting from
such investments shall be charged to the Future Funding Reserve Account. The Trustee shall not in
any way be held liable (except as a result of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) by
reason of any insufficiency of such Future Funding Reserve Account resulting from any loss relating
to any such investment, except with respect to investments in obligations of the Trustee or any
Affiliate thereof. If the Trustee does not receive investment instructions from an Authorized
Officer of the Collateral Manager, the Trustee may invest funds received in the Future Funding
Reserve Account in Eligible Investments of the type described in clause (ii) of the definition
thereto.

     Section 10.10. Interest Advances.

     (a) With respect to each Determination Date for which the sum of Interest Proceeds and, if
applicable, Principal Proceeds, collected during the related Due Period that are available to pay
interest on the Class A and the Class B Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments, are
insufficient to remit the interest due and payable with respect to the Class A and the Class B
Notes on the following Payment Date (the amount of such insufficiency, an “Interest
Shortfall”), the Trustee shall provide the Advancing Agent with written notice of such Interest
Shortfall no later than the close of business on the Business Day following such Determination
Date. The Trustee shall provide the Advancing Agent with notice, prior to any funding of an
Interest Advance by the Advancing Agent, of any additional interest remittances received by the
Trustee after delivery of such initial notice that reduce such Interest Shortfall. No later than
5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date (but
in any event no earlier than one Business Day following the Advancing Agent’s receipt of notice of
such Interest Shortfall), the Advancing Agent shall advance the difference between such amounts
(each such advance, an “Interest Advance”) by deposit of an amount equal to such Interest
Advance in the Payment Account, subject to a determination of recoverability by the Advancing Agent
as described in Section 10.10(b), and subject to a maximum limit in respect of any Payment
Date equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of such Interest Shortfalls that would otherwise
occur on the Class A Notes and Class B Notes and (ii) the aggregate of the interest payments not
received in respect of Non-Advancing Collateral Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no
circumstance will the Advancing Agent be required to make an Interest Advance in respect of a
Non-Advancing Collateral Obligation (x) to the extent that the aggregate outstanding amount of all
unreimbursed Interest Advances would exceed the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class
A Notes and the Class B Notes or (y) if the Class A/B Par Value Ratio on the relevant Measurement
Date is less than 100%. Any Interest Advance made by the Advancing Agent with respect to a Payment
Date that is in excess of the actual

- 206 -

 

Interest Shortfall for such Payment Date shall be refunded to the Advancing Agent by the
Trustee on the same Business Day that such Interest Advance was made (or, if such Interest Advance
is made prior to final determination by the Trustee of such Interest Shortfall, on the Business Day
of such final determination). The Advancing Agent shall provide the Trustee written notice of a
determination by the Advancing Agent that a proposed Interest Advance would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance no later than the close of business on the Business Day immediately
preceding the related Payment Date (or, in the event that the Advancing Agent did not receive
notice of the related Interest Shortfall on the related Determination Date, no later than the close
of business on the Business Day immediately following the Advancing Agent’s receipt of notice of
such Interest Shortfall). If the Advancing Agent shall fail to make any required Interest Advance
at or prior to the time at which distributions are to be made pursuant to Section 11.1(a),
the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, shall be required to make such Interest
Advance, subject to a determination of recoverability by the Trustee as described in Section
10.10(b). The Trustee shall be entitled to but not required to conclusively rely on any
affirmative determination by the Advancing Agent that an Interest Advance would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance. Based upon available information at the time, the Trustee, the Collateral
Manager or the Advancing Agent will provide fifteen (15) days prior notice to each Rating Agency if
recovery of a Nonrecoverable Advance would result in an Interest Shortfall on the next succeeding
Payment Date. No later than the close of business on the Determination Date related to a Payment
Date on which the recovery of a Nonrecoverable Advance would result in an Interest Shortfall, the
Collateral Manager will provide each Rating Agency notice of such recovery.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Advancing Agent nor the
Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, as applicable, shall be required to make any
Interest Advance unless such Person determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith
that such Interest Advance, or such proposed Interest Advance, plus interest expected to accrue
thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, will be ultimately recoverable from subsequent payments or
collections with respect to all Assets and has determined in its reasonable judgment that the
recovery would not result in an Interest Shortfall. In determining whether any proposed Interest
Advance will be, or whether any Interest Advance previously made is, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the
Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, as applicable, will take
into account:

     (i) (A) amounts that may be realized on each Underlying Mortgage Property in
its “as is” or then current condition and occupancy and (B) with respect to an
Underlying Mortgage Property for which then current cash flow is reduced due to
construction or repositioning, amounts that may be realized from the projected cash
flow and value of such Underlying Mortgage Property; provided that the person making
the determination of recoverability has a reasonable belief that such projected cash
flow and value are achievable;

     (ii) that the related Senior Tranches of any Collateral Obligation may be
required to be fully paid and any advances (and interest thereon) made in respect of
such Senior Tranches may be required to be fully reimbursed, prior to any amounts
recovered in respect of the Underlying Mortgage Properties are allocated or
otherwise made available to the Collateral Obligations;

- 207 -

 

     (iii) the possibility and effects of future adverse change with respect to the
Underlying Mortgage Properties, the potential length of time before such Interest
Advance may be reimbursed and the resulting degree of uncertainty with respect to
such reimbursement; and

     (iv) the fact that Interest Advances are intended to provide liquidity only and
not credit support to the Holders of the Class A Notes and the Holders of the Class
B Notes.

     For purposes of any such determination of whether an Interest Advance constitutes or would
constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, an Interest Advance will be deemed to be nonrecoverable if the
Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, as applicable,
determines that future Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds may be ultimately insufficient to
fully reimburse such Interest Advance, plus interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate within a
reasonable period of time. Absent bad faith, the determination by the Advancing Agent or the
Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, as applicable, as to the nonrecoverability of
any Interest Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders. It is understood and
agreed that the foregoing list is not meant to be exclusive and the Advancing Agent or the Trustee,
in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, may consider other factors in making any applicable
nonrecoverability determination.

     (c) The Advancing Agent and the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, will each
be entitled to recover any previously unreimbursed Interest Advance made by it (including any
Nonrecoverable Advance), together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, first, from
Interest Proceeds and second (to the extent that there are insufficient Interest Proceeds for such
reimbursement), from Principal Proceeds to the extent that such reimbursement would not trigger an
additional Interest Shortfall; provided that if at any time an Interest Advance is determined to be
a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing
Agent, shall be entitled to recover all outstanding Interest Advances from the Collection Accounts
on any Business Day during any Interest Accrual Period prior to the related Determination Date (or
on a Payment Date prior to any payment of interest on or principal of the Notes in accordance with
the Priority of Payments) without regard to whether or not such reimbursement would result in an
Interest Shortfall. The Advancing Agent and the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing
Agent, shall be permitted (but not obligated) to defer or otherwise structure the timing of
recoveries of Nonrecoverable Advances in such manner as the Advancing Agent determines is in the
best interest of the Class A Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders as a collective whole, which
may include being reimbursed for Nonrecoverable Advances in installments.

     (d) The Advancing Agent and the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, will each
be entitled with respect to any Interest Advance made by it (including Nonrecoverable Advances) to
interest accrued on the amount of such Interest Advance for so long as it is outstanding at the
Reimbursement Rate. Such Reimbursement Interest on any Interest Advance will be payable to the
Advancing Agent or Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, at the time of reimbursement
of the related Interest Advance, first, from Interest Proceeds and second, from Principal Proceeds.

- 208 -

 

     (e) The Advancing Agent’s and the Trustee’s obligations to make Interest Advances in respect
of the Collateral Obligations will continue through the Stated Maturity, unless the Class A Notes
and the Class B Notes are previously redeemed or otherwise repaid in full.

     (f) In no event will the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing
Agent, be required to advance any payments in respect of principal or with respect to any Class of
Notes other than the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes or with respect to any Collateral
Obligation other than a Non-Advancing Collateral Obligation, and in no event will the Advancing
Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as backup advancing agent, be required to advance any amounts
in respect of principal payments on any Collateral Obligation and in no event will the Advancing
Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as backup advancing agent, be required to make a
Nonrecoverable Advance.

     (g) In consideration of the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Advancing Agent
shall be entitled to receive, at the times set forth herein and subject to the Priority of
Payments, to the extent funds are available therefor, the Advancing Agent Fee. In consideration of
the Trustee’s back-up advancing obligations hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, at
the times set forth herein and subject to the Priority of Payments, to the extent funds are
available therefore, the Back-Up Advancing Agent Fee.

     (h) The determination by the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup
Advancing Agent, as applicable, (i) that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or (ii) that any
proposed Interest Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced
by an Officer’s Certificate delivered promptly to the Trustee (or, if applicable, retained
thereby), the Issuer, S&P, Fitch and Moody’s, setting forth the basis for such determination;
provided that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the
validity of, or the Advancing Agent or the Trustee’s entitlement to reimbursement with respect to,
any Interest Advance.

     (i) If a Scheduled Distribution on any Collateral Obligation is not paid to the Trustee on the
Due Date therefor, the Trustee shall provide the Advancing Agent with notice of such default on the
Business Day immediately following such default. In addition, upon request, the Trustee shall
provide the Advancing Agent (either electronically or in hard-copy format), with copies of all
reports received from any trustee, trust administrator, master servicer or similar administrative
entity with respect to the Collateral Obligations and the Trustee shall promptly make available to
the Advancing Agent any other information reasonably available to the Trustee by reason of its
acting as Trustee hereunder to permit the Advancing Agent to make a determination of recoverability
with respect to any Interest Advance and to otherwise perform its advancing functions under this
Indenture.

     (a) The Trustee shall supply, in a timely fashion, to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the

which will state that the Notes “are being offered in reliance on the exemption from
registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act to persons who are both (i)
qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act)
and (ii) qualified purchasers (as defined under Section 3(c)(7) under the Investment
Company Act of 1940).

     (b) For so long as the Rule 144A Global Notes are registered in the name of DTC or its

     (a) The Trustee shall prior to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Reserve Fund Account” which shall be held in trust in the name of

after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Reserve Funding Event, the Trustee shall in
accordance with the Priority of Payments described in Section 11.1(a)(i) make a deposit to
a reserve fund (the “Reserve Fund Account”) from available Interest Proceeds until the
balance of the Reserve Fund Account equals the Required Reserve Amount. Amounts held in the
Reserve Fund Account will be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments described in
Section 11.1(a)(i).

- 223 -

 

     (b) On each Payment Date after the occurrence of a Reserve Funding Event, any amounts on
deposit in the Reserve Fund Account shall be transferred by the Trustee to the Interest Collection
Account and treated as Interest Proceeds.

     (c) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the
Reserve Fund Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Reserve
Fund Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution
or similar process. The Issuer shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the
Reserve Fund Account. The Reserve Fund Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust
Office of a financial institution having a long term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least
equal to “A” or “A2,” as applicable, and a short term debt rating at least equal to “A-1” or “P-1”
or “F1,” as applicable.

     (d) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such
direction the Trustee shall, invest all funds in the Reserve Fund Account in Eligible Investments
designated by the Collateral Manager and earnings on such Eligible Investments will be treated as
Interest Proceeds and distributed in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Any gain realized
from such investments shall be credited to the Reserve Fund Account, and any loss resulting from
such investments shall be charged to the Reserve Fund Account. The Trustee shall not in any way be
held liable (except as a result of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any
insufficiency of such Reserve Fund Account resulting from any loss relating to any such investment,
except with respect to investments in obligations of the Trustee or any Affiliate thereof. If the
Trustee does not receive investment instructions from an Authorized Officer of the Collateral
Manager, the Trustee may invest funds received in the Reserve Fund Account in Eligible Investments
of the type described in clause (vii) of the definition thereto.

SALE OF COLLATERAL OBLIGATIONS

     Section 12.1. Sales of Collateral Obligations.

     (a) Except as otherwise expressly permitted or required by this Indenture, the Issuer shall
not sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral Obligation, provided that subject to satisfaction
of any applicable conditions in Section 10.13, so long as (A) no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and (B) on or prior to the trade date for such sale the Collateral
Manager has certified to the Trustee that each of the conditions applicable to such sale set forth
below has been satisfied, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer acting pursuant to the
Collateral Management Agreement may direct the Trustee in writing to sell, and the Trustee shall
sell in the manner directed by the Collateral Manager in writing (which writing shall specify
whether such security is a Defaulted Security or Credit Risk Security, if applicable, or whether
such security is otherwise permitted to be sold pursuant to this Section 12.1(a)):

     (i) any Defaulted Security at any time; and

     (ii) a Credit Risk Security, (A) during the Replenishment Period, if the
Collateral Manager has certified to the Trustee that it shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to purchase one or more Substitute Collateral Obligations having
an Aggregate Principal Balance no less than the Sale Proceeds (excluding accrued
interest) from such sale, and after giving effect to such sale and to the purchase
of Substitute Collateral Obligations with the Sale Proceeds thereof, in the
reasonable business judgment of the Collateral Manager (which may not be called into
question solely as a result of subsequent events), the Replenishment Criteria shall
be met and (B) after the Replenishment Period, at any time;

     provided that, there will be no reinvestment in Substitute Collateral Obligations after the
Replenishment Period, and Principal Proceeds received by the Trustee in each Due Period after the
end of the Replenishment Period will be applied to pay principal of the Notes in accordance with
the Priority of Payments as described in Section 11.1(a).

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Manager (at its option and at any time)
shall be permitted to effect a sale of a Credit Risk Security or a Defaulted Security hereunder by
purchasing (or causing its Affiliate to purchase) such Defaulted Security or Credit Risk Security
from the Issuer for a cash purchase price that shall be equal to the sum of (i) the Aggregate
Principal Balance thereof plus (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest (or, in the case of a

- 238 -

 

Preferred Equity Security, all accrued and unpaid dividends or other distributions not
attributable to the return of capital by its governing documents) thereon.

     (c) Reserved.

     (d) After the Issuer has notified the Trustee of an Optional Redemption, a Clean-Up Call or a
Tax Redemption in accordance with Section 9.1 or an Auction Call Redemption in accordance
with Section 9.2, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer acting pursuant to the
Collateral Management Agreement may at any time direct the Trustee in writing to sell, and the
Trustee shall sell in the manner directed by the Collateral Manager in writing, any Collateral
Obligation without regard to the foregoing limitations in Section 12.1(a), provided that:

     (i) the Sale Proceeds therefrom must be used to pay certain expenses and redeem
all of the Notes in whole but not in part pursuant to Sections 9.1 and
Section 9.2, and upon any such sale the Trustee shall release such
Collateral Obligation pursuant to Section 10.13;

     (ii) the Issuer may not direct the Trustee to sell (and the Trustee shall not
be required to release) a Collateral Obligation pursuant to this Section
12.1(d) unless:

     (1) the Collateral Manager certifies to the Trustee that (x) in the Collateral
Manager’s judgment based on calculations included in the certification (which shall
include the sales prices of each of the Collateral Obligations), the Sale Proceeds
from the sale of one or more of the Collateral Obligations and all Cash and proceeds
from Eligible Investments will be at least equal to the Total Redemption Price, and
(y) an Independent bond pricing service (which shall be one or more broker-dealers
selected by the Collateral Manager which are rated at least 

“P-1” by Moody’s and at
least “A-1+” by Standard & Poor’s and which make a market in the applicable
Collateral Obligations) has confirmed (which confirmation may be in the form of a
firm bid) the sales prices contained in the certification in clause (x) above (and
attaching a copy of such confirmation); and

     (2) the Independent accountants appointed by the Issuer pursuant to Section
10.14 shall confirm in writing the calculations made in clause (1)(x) above.

     (iii) in connection with an Optional Redemption, an Auction Call Redemption, a
Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption, all the Collateral Obligations to be sold
pursuant to this Section 12.1(d) must be sold in accordance with the
requirements set forth in Section 9.1(e) and Section 9.2, as
applicable.

     (e) In the event that any Collateral Obligation becomes the subject of a conversion, exchange,
redemption or offer, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting
on behalf of the Issuer) shall take no action to acquire the asset or instrument into which such
Collateral Obligation is convertible or exchangeable unless such asset or instrument would qualify
as a Substitute Collateral Obligation. In the event of an

- 239 -

 

involuntary exchange or conversion of a Collateral Obligation, if the resulting asset or
instrument would not qualify as a Substitute Collateral Obligation, the Issuer (or the Collateral
Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) shall use its best efforts to sell such Collateral
Obligation prior to conversion or exchange and, in any event, shall refuse to accept, and shall not
acquire or hold, the asset or instrument offered in exchange.

     (f) In the event that any Notes remain Outstanding as of the Payment Date occurring six months
prior to the Stated Maturity of the Notes, the Collateral Manager will be required to determine
whether proceeds expected to be received on the Assets prior to the Stated Maturity of the Notes
will be sufficient to pay in full the principal amount of (and accrued interest on) the Notes on
the Stated Maturity. If the Collateral Manager determines, in its sole discretion, that such
proceeds will not be sufficient to pay the outstanding principal amount of and accrued interest on
the Notes (a “Note Liquidation Event”) on the Stated Maturity of the Notes, the Issuer
will, at the direction of the Collateral Manager, be obligated to liquidate the portion of
Collateral Obligations sufficient to pay the remaining principal amount of and interest on the
Notes on or before the Stated Maturity. The Collateral Obligations to be liquidated by the Issuer
will be selected by the Collateral Manager.

     Section 12.2. Replenishment Criteria and Trading Restrictions.

     (a) Except as provided in Section 12.3(c), during the Replenishment Period,
Unscheduled Principal Payments, Sale Proceeds and other Principal Proceeds (including excess
amounts on deposit in the Delayed Funding Obligations Account and the Class A-1R Suspense Account)
will be reinvested in Substitute Collateral Obligations meeting the Eligibility Criteria (which
shall be, and hereby are, Granted to the Trustee pursuant to the Granting Clause of this Agreement)
only if after giving effect to such reinvestment, the following criteria (the “Replenishment
Criteria”) are satisfied, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager delivered to the Trustee, as of the date of purchase of (or, in the case of CMBS
Securities, an irrevocable binding commitment to purchase) such Substitute Collateral Obligations:

     (i) such Collateral Obligation is being acquired, repurchased or substituted in
accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Collateral Management
Agreement;

     (ii) the acquisition, repurchase or substitution of such Collateral Obligation
does not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the then current rating issued by

     (iii) such Collateral Obligation is not being acquired, repurchased or
substituted for the primary purpose of recognizing gains or decreasing losses
resulting from market value changes;

     (iv) the Collateral Quality Tests are satisfied, or, if any Collateral Quality
Test was not satisfied immediately prior to such reinvestment, the extent of
compliance with such Collateral Quality Test will be maintained or improved

following such reinvestment, except as otherwise specified in the Replenishment
Criteria below;

     (v) the Coverage Tests are satisfied (or, except with respect to reinvestment
of proceeds of Defaulted Securities or scheduled Principal Proceeds, if not
satisfied, are maintained or improved);

     (vi) if immediately prior to such investment the S&P CDO Monitor Test or the
S&P Recovery Test was not satisfied, such test result is maintained or improved
after giving effect to such reinvestment; provided, however, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, Sale Proceeds of Collateral Obligations may be reinvested as long as
the Collateral Manager provides written notice of each such sale and reinvestment to
S&P within three (3) Business Days after such reinvestment; and

     (vii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, (i) Cash on deposit in the Collection Accounts
may be invested in Eligible Investments, pending investment in Substitute Collateral Obligations
and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Substitute Collateral
Obligation may be acquired unless it was the subject of a commitment entered into by the Issuer
prior to the occurrence of such Event of Default.

     Section 12.3. Conditions Applicable to all Transactions Involving Sale or Grant.

     (a) Any transaction effected after the Closing Date under this Article 12 or
Section 10.13 shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of the Collateral
Management Agreement, provided that, (1) the Collateral Manager shall not direct the Trustee to
acquire any Substitute Collateral Obligation for inclusion in the Assets from the Collateral
Manager or any of its Affiliates as principal or to sell any Collateral Obligation from the Assets
to the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates as principal unless the transaction is effected
in accordance with the Collateral Management Agreement and (2) the Collateral Manager shall not
direct the Trustee to acquire any Substitute Collateral Obligation for inclusion in the Assets from
any account or portfolio for which the Collateral Manager serves as investment adviser or direct
the Trustee to sell any Collateral Obligation to any account or portfolio for which the Collateral
Manager serves as investment adviser unless such transactions comply with the Collateral Management
Agreement and the requirements of any applicable laws. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to
oversee compliance with this clause by the other parties.

     (b) Upon any Grant pursuant to this Article 12, all of the Issuer’s right, title and
interest to the Pledged Obligation or Securities shall be Granted to the Trustee pursuant to this
Indenture, such Pledged Obligation or Securities shall be registered in the name of the Trustee,
and, if applicable, the Trustee shall receive such Pledged Collateral Obligation or Securities.
The Trustee shall also receive, not later than the date of delivery of any Collateral Obligation
delivered after the Closing Date, an Officer’s Certificate of the Collateral Manager certifying

- 241 -

 

of and is permitted by this Article 12 (and setting forth, to the extent appropriate,
calculations in reasonable detail necessary to determine such compliance).

     (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 12 to the contrary, the Issuer
shall, subject to this Section 12.3(c), have the right to effect any transaction which has
been consented to (i) by the Holders of Notes evidencing 100% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount
of each and every Class of Notes (or if there are no Notes Outstanding, the Certificateholder) and
(ii) each Hedge Counterparty, and of which each Rating Agency has been notified.

     Section 12.4. Sale of Collateral Obligations with respect to an Auction Call
Redemption.

     (a) Pre-Auction Process.

     (i) Each Auction will occur on the Business Day that is at least twenty-four
(24) Business Days prior to the proposed Auction Call Redemption Date (such date,
the “Auction Date”).

     (ii) The Collateral Manager will initiate the Auction Procedures at least five
(5) Business Days before the proposed Auction Call Redemption Date by: (a) preparing
a list of Collateral Obligations (including CUSIP Number, if any, par amount and
issuer name for each Collateral Obligation); (b) deriving a list of not less than
three qualified bidders (the “Listed Bidders”) and requesting from each
Listed Bidder bids by the applicable Auction Date; and (c) notifying the Trustee of
the list of Listed Bidders (the “List”).

     (iii) The Collateral Manager will deliver a general solicitation package to the
Listed Bidders consisting of: (a) a form of a purchase agreement (“Auction
Purchase Agreement”) provided to the Trustee by the Collateral Manager (which
shall provide that (I) upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent therein, the
purchaser is irrevocably obligated to purchase, and the Issuer is irrevocably
obligated to sell, the Collateral Obligations on the date and on the terms stated
therein, (II) each bidder may tender a separate bid for one or more Collateral
Obligations in an Auction, (III) if the Collateral Obligations are to be sold to
different bidders, that the consummation of the purchase of all Collateral
Obligations must occur simultaneously and that the closing of each purchase is
conditional on the closing of the other purchases, (IV) if for any reason whatsoever
the Trustee has not received, by a specified Business Day (which shall be more than
ten Business Days before the proposed Auction Call Redemption Date), payment in full
in immediately available funds of the purchase price for all Collateral Obligations,
the obligations of the parties shall terminate and the Issuer shall have no
obligation or liability whatsoever and (V) any prospective purchasers will be
subject to the “limited recourse” and “non-petition” provisions set forth in this
Indenture), (b) the minimum aggregate Cash purchase price (which shall be determined
by the Collateral Manager as the Total Redemption Price less the balance of all
Eligible Investments and Cash in the Collection

- 242 -

 

Accounts, the Payment Account, the Delayed Funding Obligations Account, each
Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account and the Expense Account; (c) the list of
Collateral Obligations; (d) a formal bid sheet (which will permit a bidder to bid
for all of the Collateral Obligations or separately for any one or more (but not
all) Collateral Obligations and will include a representation from the bidder that
it is eligible to purchase all of the Collateral Obligations or any one or more (but
not all) Collateral Obligations) to be provided to the Trustee by the Collateral
Manager; (e) a detailed timetable; and (f) copies of all transfer documents provided
to the Trustee by the Collateral Manager (including transfer certificates and
subscription agreements which a bidder must execute pursuant to the underlying
instruments and a list of the requirements which the bidder must satisfy under the
underlying instruments (i.e., QIB status, Qualified Purchaser status, etc.)).

     (iv) The Collateral Manager will send solicitation packages to all Listed
Bidders on the List at least 20 Business Days before the proposed Auction Call
Redemption Date. The Listed Bidders will be required to submit any due diligence
questions (or comments on the draft purchase agreement) in writing to the Collateral
Manager by a date specified in the solicitation package. The Collateral Manager will
be required to answer all reasonable and relevant questions by the date specified in
the solicitation package and the Collateral Manager will distribute the questions
and answers and the revised final Auction Purchase Agreement to all Listed Bidders
(with a copy to the Issuer and the Trustee).

     (b) Auction Process.

     (i) The Bank or its Affiliates may, but shall not be required to, bid at the
Auction. The Collateral Manager and its Affiliates may bid in the Auction if the
Collateral Manager deems such bidding to be appropriate but is not required to do
so.

     (ii) On the second Business Day prior to the Auction Date (the “Auction Bid
Date”), all bids will be due by facsimile at the offices of the Trustee by 11:00
a.m. New York City time, with the winning bidder or bidders to be notified by 2:00
p.m. New York City time. All bids from Listed Bidders on the List will be due on
the bid sheet contained in the solicitation package. Each bid shall be for the
purchase and delivery to one purchaser (i) of all (but not less than all) of the
Collateral Obligations or (ii) of one or more (but not all) of the Collateral
Obligations.

     (iii) Unless the Trustee receives (A) at least one bid from a Listed Bidder to
purchase all of the Collateral Obligations or (B) receives bids from one or more
Listed Bidders (to purchase one or more (but not all) Collateral Obligations) for
all Collateral Obligations in the aggregate, the Trustee will decline to consummate
the sale.

- 243 -

 

     (iv) Subject to clause (iii) above, with the advice of the Collateral Manager,
the Trustee shall select the bid or bids which result in the Highest Auction Price
from one or more Listed Bidders (in excess of the specified minimum purchase price).
“Highest Auction Price” means the higher of (i) the highest price bid by any Listed
Bidder for all of the Collateral Obligations or (ii) the sum of the highest prices
bid by one or more Listed Bidders (for one or more (but not all) Collateral
Obligations) for all Collateral Obligations in the aggregate. In each case, the
price bid by a Listed Bidder will be the dollar amount which the Collateral Manager
certifies to the Trustee based on the Collateral Manager’s review of the bids, which
certification shall be binding and conclusive.

     (v) Upon notification to the winning bidder or bidders, the winning bidder (or,
if the Highest Auction Price requires the sale of the Collateral Obligations to more
than one bidder, each winning bidder) will be required to deliver to the Trustee a
signed counterpart of the Auction Purchase Agreement no later than 4:00 p.m. New
York City time on the Auction Date. The winning bidder (or, if the Highest Auction
Price requires the sale of the Collateral Obligations to more than one bidder, each
winning bidder) will make payment in full of the purchase price on the Business Day
(the “Auction Purchase Closing Date”) specified in the general solicitation
package (which will be no later than ten Business Days prior to the proposed Auction
Call Redemption Date). If a winning bidder so requests, the Trustee and the Issuer
will enter into a bailee letter in the form agreed upon by the Trustee and the
Collateral Manager to this Indenture (a “Bailee Letter”) with each winning
bidder and its designated bank (which bank will be subject to approval by the Issuer
or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer), provided that such bank enters
into an account control agreement with the Trustee and the Issuer and has a long
term debt rating of at least “BBB+” by Standard & Poor’s and (if rated by Fitch) at
least “BBB+” by Fitch and (if rated by Moody’s) at least “A2” by Moody’s. If the
above requirements are satisfied, the Trustee will deliver the Collateral
Obligations (to be sold to such bidder) pursuant thereto to the bailee bank at least
one Business Day prior to the closing on the sale of the Collateral Obligations and
accept payment of the purchase price pursuant thereto. If payment in full of the
purchase price is not made by the Auction Purchase Closing Date for any reason
whatsoever (or, if the Collateral Obligations are to be sold to more than one
bidder, if any bidder fails to make payment in full of the purchase price by the
Auction Purchase Closing Date for any reason whatsoever), the Issuer will decline to
consummate the sale of all Collateral Obligations, the Trustee and the Issuer will
direct the bailee bank to return the Collateral Obligations to the Trustee, and (if
notice of redemption has been given by the Trustee) the Trustee will give notice (in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture) that the Auction Call Redemption will
not occur.

     (vi) Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Section 9.2(b), the Collateral Manager or any of its
Affiliates, although it may not have been the highest bidder, will have the option
to purchase any one or more Collateral Obligations for a purchase price equal to the
highest bid therefor.

- 244 -

 

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 12.4, but
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(b) and the
consummation of the Auction Call Redemption, at the election of the Collateral Manager, in lieu of
initiating or conducting any Auction, the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates will have the
option to purchase all of the Collateral Obligations that would otherwise be subject to such
Auction for a price equal to the Total Redemption Price. Such purchase of Collateral Obligations
by the Collateral Manager or its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 12.4(c) will be deemed
to be a Successful Auction pursuant to this Indenture.

     Section 12.5. Modifications to Collateral Quality Tests or Coverage Tests.

     In the event any of the Rating Agencies modifies the definitions or calculations relating to
(i) the method of calculating any of its respective Collateral Quality Tests (a “Collateral
Quality Test Modification”) or (ii) any of the Coverage Tests (a “Coverage Test
Modification”), in either case in order to correspond with published changes in the guidelines,
methodology or standards established by such Rating Agency, the Issuer may, but is under no
obligation solely as a result of this Section 12.5 to, incorporate corresponding changes
into this Indenture by an amendment hereto with the consent of 66-2/3%, by outstanding principal
amount, of the Controlling Class (provided, that if the Controlling Class does not respond to the
Issuer within seven (7) Business Days, the Controlling Class shall be deemed to have consented) if
(x)(1) in the case of a Collateral Quality Test Modification, the Rating Agency Condition is
satisfied with respect to the Rating Agency that made such modification or (2) in the case of a
Coverage Test Modification, the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to each Rating
Agency then rating the Notes and (y) written notice of such modification is delivered by the
Collateral Manager to the Trustee and to the Noteholders and the Certificateholder (which notice
may be included in the next regularly scheduled report to Noteholders). Any such Collateral
Quality Test Modification or Coverage Test Modification, as the case may be, shall be effected
without execution of a supplemental indenture; provided, however, that such amendment shall be (i)
evidenced by a written instrument executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Collateral Manager
and delivered to the Trustee, (ii) accompanied by delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee of (A) an
Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer certifying that such amendment has been made pursuant to and in
compliance with this Section 12.5 and (B) if requested by the Trustee, an Opinion of
Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Section 12.5 and
that all applicable conditions precedent under this Section 12.5 have been satisfied, on
which such Officer’s Certificate or such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, as the case
may be, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such amendment
reasonably determined by the Trustee to be unduly burdensome to the Trustee, shall not take effect
without the Trustee’s express written consent.

     Section 12.6. Post-Acquisition Compliance Tests.

     (a) All Substitute Collateral Obligations (or Modified Collateral Obligations designated by
the Collateral Manager as Substitute Collateral Obligations) will be identified by the Collateral
Manager using standards similar to the review performed on the Initial Collateral Obligations of a
similar Property Type and Specified Type. The Collateral Manager will monitor the impact of the
Substitute Collateral Obligations on the Coverage Tests and the general credit quality of the pool.

- 245 -

 

     (b) Within 10 Business Days of purchasing the Substitute Collateral Obligations (or Modified
Collateral Obligations designated by the Collateral Manager as Substitute Collateral Obligations),
the Collateral Manager will deliver to each Rating Agency a comprehensive set of asset and
underwriting materials in a form acceptable to the Rating Agencies (“Reinvestment Asset
Information”) describing each Substitute Collateral Obligation that has been acquired by the
Issuer. Upon the designation of a Modified Collateral Obligation as a Substitute Collateral
Obligation by the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Manager shall certify to the Trustee that,
based on the prior ratings provided by the Rating Agencies with respect to the Initial Collateral
Obligations of the same Property Type and Specified Type, it has determined that after giving
effect to such modification, the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test, the S&P Post-Acquisition
Compliance Test and the Fitch Post-Acquisition Compliance Test would be satisfied.

     (c) After receiving the Reinvestment Asset Information, a Rating Agency may, in the case of
Moody’s, Fitch and S&P, provide an estimated rating to the Collateral Manager necessary to confirm
whether a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test, a Fitch Post Acquisition Compliance Test or an
S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure has occurred.

     (d) Within 60 days of finding a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure (a
“Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure”), the Collateral Manager shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to come into compliance with the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test to the
extent that the Collateral Manager believes it is in the best interest of the Noteholders by (i)
directing and assisting the Trustee to sell the Substitute Collateral Obligation that caused the
Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, at a price at least equal to the price paid by the Issuer for the
Substitute Collateral Obligation, plus any fees and expenses attributable to such sale, (ii)
instructing and assisting the Trustee to sell any other Collateral Obligations (provided that the
sale price must be at a price at least equal to the price paid by the Issuer for the Collateral
Obligation, plus any fees and expenses attributable to such sale) and/or (iii) instructing and
assisting the Trustee to purchase additional Substitute Collateral Obligations (subject to the
Reinvestment Criteria) that ultimately would result in satisfaction of the Moody’s Post-Acquisition
Compliance Test. Following a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, until such time as the Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is satisfied, the Collateral Manager may purchase a Substitute
Collateral Obligation only if it has a Moody’s Rating; provided, however, if the Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is not satisfied within 60 days of a finding of a Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Failure, each Collateral Obligation acquired must have a Moody’s Rating until such
time as the Rating Agency Condition with respect to Moody’s has been satisfied. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is not satisfied within 120 days of
a finding of a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, each Collateral Obligation thereafter acquired
must have a Moody’s Rating regardless of whether the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is
satisfied. In addition, if within 120 days of finding a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, such
failure is not cured, thereafter the Collateral Manager may only purchase a Substitute Collateral
Obligation if it has a Moody’s Rating unless the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect
to Moody’s.

     (e) Within 60 days of finding an S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure (an “S&P
Post- Acquisition Failure”), the Collateral Manager may (i) direct and assist the

- 246 -

 

Trustee in selling the Substitute Collateral Obligation that caused the S&P Post-Acquisition
Failure, (ii) instruct and assist the Trustee to sell any other Collateral Obligations and/or (iii)
instruct and assist the Trustee to purchase additional Substitute Collateral Obligations (subject
to the Reinvestment Criteria) that ultimately would result in satisfaction of the S&P
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test. Until such time as the S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is
met, the Collateral Manager may only purchase a Substitute Collateral Obligation if it has an S&P
Rating.

     (f) Within 60 days of finding a Fitch Post Acquisition Compliance Test failure (a “Fitch
Post Acquisition Failure”), the Collateral Manager may (i) direct the Trustee to sell the
Substitute Collateral Obligation that caused the Fitch Post Acquisition Failure, (ii) instruct the
Trustee to sell any other Collateral Obligations and/or (iii) instruct the Trustee to purchase
additional Substitute Collateral Obligations, that would ultimately result in satisfaction of the
Fitch Post Acquisition Compliance Test.

     (g) No more than 20% of the Initial Aggregate Collateral Balance (including any Modified
Collateral Obligations) can be purchased (or, in the case of Modified Collateral Obligations,
designated by the Collateral Manager as Substitute Collateral Obligations) by the Issuer pending
satisfaction of any of the Moody’s Post Acquisition Compliance Test, the S&P Post Acquisition
Compliance Test and the Fitch Post Acquisition Compliance Test. In addition, no single Collateral
Obligation collateralized or backed by interests on any Property Type that is identified herein as
a Non-Core Property Type may be purchased if it represents more than 5% of the Aggregate Collateral
Balance, and no single other Collateral Obligation may be so purchased if it represents more than
10% of the Aggregate Collateral Balance, unless such Collateral Obligation is rated by one of the
Rating Agencies. No Collateral Obligation (A) which is collateralized or backed by interests on
Land Properties or Construction Properties, (B) with respect to which the underlying property is
located outside of the United States and associated commonwealths, territories and possessions or
(C) which is issued by an issuer incorporated or organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other
than the United States, any state, commonwealth, territory or possession of the United States and
the District of Columbia may be purchased unless such Collateral Obligation has a Moody’s Rating.

     Section 12.7. Mandatory Repurchase or Substitution of Collateral Obligations.

     In the event that an officer of the CLO Servicer, the Collateral Manager, the Trustee or the
Seller determines or receives notice that (i) a Collateral Obligation, as of its date of transfer
to the Issuer, did not satisfy the Eligibility Criteria, (ii) there was a breach of a
representation and warranty with respect to a Collateral Obligation as of its date of transfer to
the Issuer (notwithstanding that such representation and warranty was made to the Seller’s best
knowledge), and such breach is not cured in all material respects within thirty (30) days of the
later of such determination or receipt of such notice, or (iii) a Collateral Obligation would cause
(or has caused) CapitalSource Inc. (or any of its Affiliates that is a REIT, as relevant) to fail
to satisfy the requirements of Section 856(c)(4) of the Code (any such Collateral Obligation, an
“Ineligible Collateral Obligation”), then (a) the Trust Depositor and Seller must
repurchase such Ineligible Collateral Obligation by depositing in the Principal Collection Account
and Interest Collection Account, as applicable, the Repurchase Price, (b) the Trust Depositor and
Seller must substitute for such Collateral Obligation a Replacement Collateral Obligation in
accordance with

- 247 -

 

the applicable Collateral Obligation Purchase Agreement (provided that the Trust Depositor and
Seller shall execute a new Collateral Obligation Purchase Agreement with respect to such Collateral
Obligation) or (c) in respect of clause (iii) above, the Collateral Manager must otherwise dispose
of such Collateral Obligation. In the event that the Trust Depositor and Seller substitutes a
Replacement Collateral Obligation for such Ineligible Collateral Obligation, the requirements set
forth Section 12.8 (including, without limitation, the Replenishment Criteria) must be
satisfied. The Repurchase Price for a Collateral Obligation may equal, exceed or be less than the
fair market value of such Collateral Obligation on the date of repurchase.

     Section 12.8. Optional Repurchase or Substitution of Collateral Obligations.

     (a) If the Issuer, Collateral Manager or CLO Servicer determines in its reasonable business
judgment that:

     (i) a Collateral Obligation becomes a Written Down Security or a Credit Risk
Security;

     (ii) a Collateral Obligation has a material covenant default;

     (iii) a Collateral Obligation becomes a Defaulted Security; or

     (iv) a Collateral Obligation either (A) does not constitute a “real estate
asset” within the meaning of Section 856(c)(5)(B) of the Code or (B) produces (or
will produce) income not described in Section 856(c)(2) of the Code or gross income
from prohibited transactions within the meaning of Section 857(b)(6) of the Code;

     then the Trust Depositor and Seller, after the expiration of any applicable cure periods,
shall have the option to substitute for that Collateral Obligation one or more Collateral
Obligations subject to a new Collateral Obligation Purchase Agreement and satisfying the
Eligibility Criteria and satisfying the criteria described below (each a “Replacement
Collateral Obligation”) or to repurchase such Collateral Obligation at a price equal to the
Repurchase Price for such Collateral Obligation; provided that, the aggregate Principal Balance of
all such Collateral Obligations which are the subject of an optional repurchase or substitution by
the Seller pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) above may not exceed 20% of the Initial Aggregate
Collateral Balance.

     (b) After giving effect to each substitution of a Replacement Collateral Obligation, the
Eligibility Criteria and the Replenishment Criteria must be, and the Collateral Manager shall
certify to the Trustee that the Eligibility Criteria and the Replenishment Criteria are, satisfied
for the applicable Replacement Collateral Obligation to become part of the Assets (or, if any
component of the Replenishment Criteria was not satisfied prior to giving effect to such
substitution, compliance with such component shall be maintained or improved after giving effect to
such substitution if such component can be satisfied by such maintenance or improvement).

     (c) In addition, the substitution of any Replacement Collateral Obligation into the Assets
will be subject to the following requirements:

- 248 -

 

     (i) the Principal Balance of each Replacement Collateral Obligation must, or,
if more than one Replacement Collateral Obligation will be added in replacement of a
Collateral Obligation, the sum of the Principal Balances of such Replacement
Collateral Obligations must, equal or exceed the Principal Balance of the Collateral
Obligation being replaced; provided that, during the Replenishment Period, this
requirement shall be deemed satisfied if the sum of the Principal Balance(s) of the
applicable Replacement Collateral Obligation(s) plus the Principal Balance(s) of any
Substitute Collateral Obligation(s) acquired by the Issuer in a substantially
contemporaneous acquisition, equals or exceeds the Principal Balance of the
Collateral Obligation being replaced; and

     (ii) all actions or additional actions (if any) necessary to perfect the
security interest and assignment of such Replacement Collateral Obligation being
substituted and the related property to the Trust Depositor, the Seller, the Issuer
and the Trustee shall have been taken as of or prior to the date of substitution of
such Replacement Collateral Obligation.

     (d) The Seller will have (a) during the Replenishment Period, no more than 90 days and (b)
after the Replenishment Period, no more than 90 days in which to complete a substitution pursuant
to this Section 12.8. A substitution pursuant to this Section 12.8 may be
accomplished by either (i) a contemporaneous substitution of a Collateral Obligation meeting the
criteria specified in this Section 12.8 for the Collateral Obligation being replaced or
(ii) a deposit by the Seller into the Principal Collection Account of the Repurchase Price with
respect to the Collateral Obligation being replaced and then, (x) during the Replenishment Period,
within 90 days and (y) after the Replenishment Period, within 180 days, the sale by the Trust
Depositor to the Issuer of one or more Replacement Collateral Obligations in exchange for the funds
so deposited. In the event that the full Repurchase Price is not used to purchase Replacement
Collateral Obligations within either the 90 day or 180 day period, as applicable, then the
remaining amount of such funds previously deposited as described above will be distributed from the
Principal Collection Account and distributed in accordance with the Priority of Payments on the
next Payment Date. The Repurchase Price paid (or, in the case of a contemporaneous conveyance of a
Replacement Collateral Obligation pursuant to the Collateral Obligation Purchase Agreement, deemed
paid) by the Issuer for any Replacement Collateral Obligation may equal, exceed or be less than the
fair market value of such Replacement Collateral Obligation as of the date of repurchase or
substitution.

     (e) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall present each Replacement Collateral
Obligation proposed to be included in the portfolio to each Rating Agency in order that each Rating
Agency may provide a rating and a recovery rate with respect to such Replacement Collateral
Obligation; provided that (i) such Replacement Collateral Obligation may become a part of the
portfolio prior to the Collateral Manager’s presentment of the Replacement Collateral Obligation to
the Rating Agencies and (ii) the Collateral Manager’s failure to present a Replacement Collateral
Obligation to the Rating Agencies as described herein shall not constitute an independent breach
of, or default under, any Transaction Document, although any Replacement Collateral Obligation
which has not been submitted to each Rating Agency as described herein within 60 days after the
related transfer date to the Issuer will be deemed to be a Defaulted Security.

ARTICLE 13.

NOTEHOLDERS’ RELATIONS

     Section 13.1. Subordination.

     (a) Anything in this Indenture or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer and
the Holders of the Class A-2B Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, the
Class E Notes, the Class F Notes, the Class G Notes, the Class H Notes, the Class J Notes and the

ARTICLE 14.

MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 14.1. Form of Documents Delivered to the Trustee.

     In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion
of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by
the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document,
but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more
other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to
such matters in one or several documents.

- 255 -

 

     Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it
relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless
such Authorized 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 of the Issuer or
Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or
opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or any other Person, stating
that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager or such other Person, unless such Authorized Officer of the Issuer or such
counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may also be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters,
upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Authorized Officer of the Issuer,
stating that the information with respect to such matters is in the possession of the Issuer,
unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such
matters are erroneous.

     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.

     Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation
of a Default or Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the
Trustee at the request or direction of the Issuer, then notwithstanding that the satisfaction of
such condition is a condition precedent to the Issuer’s rights to make such request or direction,
the Trustee shall be protected in acting in accordance with such request or direction if it does
not have knowledge of the occurrence and continuation of such Default or Event of Default as
provided in Section 6.1(e).

     Section 14.2. Acts of Securityholders.

     (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Securityholders may be embodied in and evidenced
by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Securityholders in person
or by an agent 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 Trustee,
and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the
action or actions embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the
“Act” of the Securityholders 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 conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner
provided in this Section 14.2.

     (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be
proved in any manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

     (c) The principal amount and registered numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of
his holding the same, shall be proved by the Notes Register. The registered

- 256 -

 

portion of the Certificate held by any Person, and the date of his holding the same, shall be
proved by the register maintained with respect to the Certificate.

     (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by
the Securityholder shall bind such Securityholder (and any transferee thereof) of such Security and
of every Security issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof,
in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the
Shares Registrar or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made
upon such Security.

     Section 14.4. Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to
Holders of Notes of any event,

     (a) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Notes if in writing and mailed,
first class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Note affected by such event, at the address of
such Holder as it appears in the Notes Register, not earlier than the earliest date and not later
than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice;

     (b) such notice shall be in the English language;

     (c) such notice shall also be provided to the Irish Paying Agent (for so long as any Notes
(other than the Class A-1R Notes) are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange); and

     (d) all reports or notices to the Certificateholder shall be sufficiently given if provided in
writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to the Owner Trustee.

     Notwithstanding clause (a) above, a Holder of Notes may give the Trustee written notice that
it is requesting that notices to it be given by facsimile transmissions and stating the facsimile
number for such transmission. Thereafter, the Trustee shall give notices to such Holder by
facsimile transmission; provided that if such notice also requests that notices be given by mail,
then such notice shall also be given by mail in accordance with clause (a) above.

     The Trustee shall deliver to the Noteholders any information or notice requested to be so
delivered by at least 25% of the Holders of any Class of Notes.

     Neither the failure to mail any notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any
particular Holder of a Note shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
Holders of Notes. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any
other cause, it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification to
Holders of Notes shall be made with the approval of the Trustee and shall constitute sufficient
notification to such Holders of Notes for every purpose hereunder.

     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
Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.

     In the event that, by reason of the suspension of the regular 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 Trustee shall be deemed to be
a sufficient giving of such notice.

- 259 -

 

     For so long as any Notes (other than the Class A-1R Notes) are listed on the Irish Stock
Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, all notices to Noteholders of such Notes will
be published in the Daily Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange.

     Section 14.5. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

     The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof.

     Section 14.6. Successors and Assigns.

     All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer shall bind their respective
successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

     Section 14.7. Severability.

     In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in
any way be affected or impaired thereby.

     Section 14.8. Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, expressed or implied, shall give to any
Person, other than (i) the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and (ii) the Collateral
Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Certificateholder, the Owner Trustee, the Shares Registrar
and the Noteholders (each of whom, in the case of this subclause (ii), shall be an express
third-party beneficiary hereunder), any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under this Indenture.

     Section 14.9. Governing Law.

     THIS INDENTURE AND EACH NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN WITHOUT REGARD TO
CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

     Section 14.10. Submission to Jurisdiction.

     The Issuer hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State
or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to the Notes or this Indenture, and the Issuer hereby
irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York State or federal court. The Issuer hereby irrevocably waives, to the
fullest extent that they may legally do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance
of such action or proceeding. The Issuer irrevocably consents to the service of any and all
process in any action or proceeding by the mailing or delivery of copies of such process to it at
the office of the Issuer’s agent set forth in Section 7.2. The Issuer agrees that a final

- 260 -

 

judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

     Section 14.11. Counterparts.

     This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall
be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

     Section 14.12. Issuer Obligation.

     No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the
Issuer or the Owner Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or other
writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the Owner Trustee in its

their individual capacity) and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully
liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid
capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all
purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer
hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and
provisions of the Trust Agreement.

     Section 14.13. Limitation of Liability.

     It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (a) this Indenture is
executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not individually or personally but solely as
Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer under the Trust Agreement, in the exercise of the powers and
authority conferred and vested in it, (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements
herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations,
undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Trust Company but is made and intended for the purpose of
binding only the Issuer, (c) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability
on Wilmington Trust Company individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or
implied contained herein, all such liability (except to the extent resulting from the gross
negligence of Wilmington Trust Company), if any, being expressly waived by the parties to this
Indenture and by any person claiming by, through or under them and (d) under no circumstances shall
Wilmington Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of

or undertaking by the Issuer under this Indenture or any related documents (except to the extent

HEDGE AGREEMENT

     Section 16.1. Issuer’s Obligations under Hedge Agreement.

     (a) On each day, the Issuer shall maintain one or more Hedge Transactions, provided that each
such Hedge Transaction shall:

     (i) be entered into with a Qualified Hedge Counterparty and governed by a Hedge
Agreement; and

     (ii) be maintained so that: (A) the aggregate outstanding notional amount of
all Hedge Transactions hedging the Floating Rate Securities for any current or
future Due Period thereunder will not be greater than the aggregate Principal
Balance of the Floating Rate Securities for the corresponding Due Period by more
than the Floating Rate Permitted Excess Amount; (B) the aggregate outstanding
notional amount of all Hedge Transactions hedging the Fixed Rate Securities for any
current or future Due Period thereunder will not be greater than the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Fixed Rate Securities for the corresponding Due Period by
more than the Fixed Rate Permitted Excess Amount; and (C) on any date after the
Offered Notes are no longer outstanding, the aggregate outstanding notional amount
of all Hedge Transactions for any current or future Due Period shall not exceed the
Aggregate Outstanding Balance for the corresponding Interest Accrual Period.

     (b) Each Hedge Agreement shall provide that any scheduled periodic payments required to be
made by the Issuer and the Hedge Counterparty on the same date with respect to a Hedge Transaction
will be netted so that only the net difference between such payments will be paid, with any net
periodic payments to be paid into the Principal Collection Account and Interest Collection Account
(if payable by the Hedge Counterparty, such payments, “Net Trust Hedge Receipts”) or, as
applicable, from the Principal Collection Account and Interest Collection Account (if payable by
the Issuer, such payments, “Net Trust Hedge Payments”) and distributed in accordance with
Section 10.2(f) and the Priority of Payments.

     (c) As additional security hereunder, the Issuer hereby assigns to the Trustee, on behalf of
the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty, all right, title and interest of the Issuer in each
Hedge Agreement, each Hedge Transaction, and all present and future amounts payable by a Hedge
Counterparty to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the respective Hedge Agreement and Hedge
Transaction(s) with that Hedge Counterparty (“Hedge Collateral”), and Grants a security
interest to the Trustee, as agent for the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty, in the Hedge
Collateral. The Issuer acknowledges that, as a result of that

- 262 -

 

assignment, the Issuer may not, without the prior written consent of the Trustee, exercise any
rights under any Hedge Agreement or Hedge Transaction, except for the Issuer’s right under any
Hedge Agreement to enter into Hedge Transactions in order to meet the Issuer’s obligations under
this Section 16.1. Nothing herein shall have the effect of releasing the Issuer from any
of its obligations under any Hedge Agreement or any Hedge Transaction, nor be construed as
requiring the consent of the Trustee, any Noteholder or any Hedge Counterparty for the performance
by the Issuer of any such obligations.

     (d) The Issuer hereby agrees to maintain a register of outstanding Hedge Agreements. Such
register shall contain the name of each Hedge Counterparty as well as the address of each Hedge
Counterparty. The Issuer shall provide such names and addresses to the Trustee, the Back-up
Servicer and each Rating Agency on a current basis.

     (e) The Trustee shall, upon notice from the Issuer, establish a single, segregated trust
account which shall be designated as the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account, which shall be held
in trust in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties
and over which the Trustee shall have the exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal. The
Trustee shall deposit all collateral received from a Hedge Counterparty under a Hedge Agreement in
the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or
otherwise to the credit of, the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in trust by the
Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties. The only permitted
withdrawals from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Hedge
Counterparty Collateral Account shall be upon Issuer Order (i) for application to obligations of a
Hedge Counterparty to the Issuer under Hedge Agreement if such Hedge Agreement becomes subject to
early termination or (ii) to return collateral to such Hedge Counterparty when and as required by
such Hedge Agreement. The Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon such Issuer Order.
Each Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in accordance with the terms of the
related Hedge Agreement.

     (f) Each Hedge Agreement will provide that if at any time the Hedge Counterparty or the Hedge
Counterparty’s credit support provider (i) does not have the long-term or short-term ratings
required to be a Qualified Hedge Counterparty then the Hedge Counterparty shall, within ten (10)
days of such failure to maintain the required ratings, transfer (at its own cost) all of its rights
and obligations under the Hedge Agreement to another Person that is a Qualified Hedge Counterparty
in accordance with the terms of the Hedge Agreement or (ii) fails to meet the rating thresholds set
forth in clause (a)(i) of the definition of “Qualified Hedge Counterparty”, then the Hedge
Counterparty shall either post collateral within 30 days as provided in the Credit Support Annex to
the Hedge Agreement or transfer (at its own cost) all of its rights and obligations under the Hedge
Agreement to another Person in accordance with the terms of the Hedge Agreement; provided that each
Hedge Agreement shall provide that any amendments thereto or replacements thereof shall be subject
to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to such amendment or replacement,
as the case may be. Failure by the Hedge Counterparty to comply with this Section 16.1(f)
shall be a termination event under the Hedge Agreement.

- 263 -

 

     Section 16.2. Collateral Obligations Purchase Agreements.

     Following the Closing Date, unless a Collateral Obligations Purchase Agreement is necessary to
comply with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer may acquire Collateral Obligations in
accordance with customary settlement procedures in the relevant markets. In any event, the Issuer
shall obtain from any seller of a Loan, all Underlying Instruments with respect to each Collateral
Obligation and all Underlying Instruments related to any related Senior Tranche that govern,
directly or indirectly, the rights and obligations of the owner of the Collateral Obligation with
respect to the Underlying Term Loan, the Underlying Mortgage Property and the Collateral Obligation
and any certificate evidencing the Collateral Obligation.

     Section 16.3. Cure Rights.

     (a) If the Issuer, as holder of a Loan, has the right pursuant to the related Underlying
Instruments to cure an event of default on the Underlying Term Loan, the Collateral Manager may, in
accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard advance from its own funds with respect
to the Loan as a reimbursable Cure Advance, all such amounts as are necessary to effect the timely
cure of such event of default pursuant to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments; provided
that (i) such advances may only be made (A) to the extent that the Collateral Manager reasonably
believes that such cash advances can be repaid from future payments on the related underlying
commercial mortgage loan and in accordance with the Collateral Manager’s Servicing Standard
(subject to override by the CLO Servicer pursuant to Section 1.5) and (B) if the Collateral
Manager receives written instruction from the Certificateholder with respect thereto, and (ii) the
particular advance would not, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance. The determination
by the Collateral Manager that it has made a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance or that any proposed Cure
Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance shall be made by the Collateral
Manager in its reasonable good faith judgment in accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing
Standard and shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered promptly to the Trustee,
setting forth the basis for such determination, accompanied by an appraisal, if available, or an
independent broker’s opinion of the value of the Underlying Mortgage Property and any information
that the Collateral Manager may have obtained and that supports such determination. The Collateral
Manager will be entitled to reimbursement in respect of each Cure Advance from any subsequent
payments or recoveries on each Collateral Obligation in respect of which such Cure Advance was made
in accordance with the Priority of Payments if such reimbursement would not cause an Interest
Shortfall; provided that, if at any time the Collateral Manager shall determine in its sole
discretion (subject to override by the CLO Servicer as provided in Section 1.5 herein),
exercised in good faith and in accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard, that a
Cure Advance previously made is a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, the Collateral Manager shall be
entitled to reimbursements for such Nonrecoverable Cure Advance from subsequent payments or
collections with respect to the Assets on any Business Day during any Interest Accrual Period prior
to the related Determination Date (or on a Payment Date prior to any payment of interest on or
principal of the Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments), first, from Interest Proceeds
and, second (to the extent that there are insufficient Interest Proceeds for such reimbursement),
from Principal Proceeds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Manager will be permitted
(but not obligated) to defer or otherwise structure the timing of recovery of any Nonrecoverable
Cure Advance in such manner as the Collateral Manager

- 264 -

 

determines is in the best interest of the Noteholders as a collective whole, which may include
being reimbursed for such Nonrecoverable Cure Advance in installments; provided that the Collateral
Manager will not be permitted to defer recovery of any Nonrecoverable Cure Advance (or any portion
thereof) on any Payment Date to the extent that there are amounts available to be distributed to
the Owner Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Distribution Account on such Payment Date for
distribution to the Certificateholder in accordance with the Priority of Payments without regard to
such deferral.

     (b) On the Business Day preceding each Determination Date, the Collateral Manager may request
by Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, reimbursement for any (x) Cure Advance or (y)
Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, from any amounts received with respect to the related Collateral
Obligation or the Assets, respectively. No later than the Payment Date related to the
Determination Date for which the Collateral Manager has delivered an Officer’s Certificate
requesting reimbursement of a Cure Advance or a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, the Trustee shall
transfer to the Collateral Manager, by wire transfer to an account identified to the Trustee in
writing, the amount of such Cure Advance or Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, as applicable.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Collateral Manager shall
not be required to make any Cure Advance that it determines in its reasonable, good faith judgment
would constitute a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance as determined pursuant to Section 16.3(a).

     Section 16.4. Purchase Right; Certificateholder.

     If the Issuer, as holder of a subordinate Participation or B Note, has the right pursuant to
the related Underlying Instruments to purchase any related Senior Tranche(s), the Issuer may, and
shall if directed by the Certificateholder, exercise such right, if the Collateral Manager
determines based on the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard (subject to override by the CLO
Servicer as provided in Section 1.5 herein) that the exercise of the option would be in the
best interest of the Noteholders, but may not exercise such right if the Collateral Manager
determines otherwise. The Collateral Manager shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
certifying such determination, accompanied by an Act of the Certificateholder directing the Issuer
to exercise such right. In connection with the purchase of any such Senior Tranche(s), the Issuer
shall assign to the Certificateholder or its designee all of its right, title and interest in such
Senior Tranche(s) in exchange for a purchase price (such price and any other associated expense of
such exercise to be paid by the Certificateholder) of the Senior Tranche(s) (or, if the Underlying
Instruments permit, the Issuer may assign the purchase right to the Certificateholder or its
designee; otherwise the Certificateholder or its designee shall fund the purchase by the Issuer,
which shall then assign the Senior Tranche(s) to the Certificateholder or its designee) (the
“Purchase Option Purchase Price”), which amount shall be delivered by the Certificateholder
or its designee from its own funds to or upon the instruction of the Collateral Manager in
accordance with terms of the Underlying Instruments related to the acquisition of such Senior
Tranche(s). The Trustee or the Issuer shall execute and deliver at the Certificateholder’s
direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Certificateholder, in each
case without recourse, as shall be necessary to transfer title to the Certificateholder or its
designee of the Senior Tranche(s) and the Trustee shall have no

- 265 -

 

responsibility with regard to such Senior Tranche(s). As a condition to the exercise of any
such purchase right by the Issuer on behalf of the Certificateholder, the purchaser of the Senior
Tranche and the Issuer will enter into a customary intercreditor agreement if there is not an
applicable existing intercreditor agreement. As long as the Issuer owns the related Collateral
Obligation, the Issuer shall not exercise any purchase rights with respect to a Participation or B
Note that is a pari passu interest relative to another Participation or B Note related to the same
mortgage loan; provided, however, that the Collateral Manager may (in accordance with the
Collateral Manager Servicing Standard) assign such right to third parties to the extent that it is
able to do so pursuant to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments.

     Section 16.5. Representations and Warranties Related to Subsequent Collateral
Obligations.

     (a) If the Collateral Obligation is a Subsequent Collateral Obligation, upon the acquisition
of such Subsequent Collateral Obligation by the Issuer, the related seller has made or assigned to
the Issuer the following:

     (i) (A) representations and warranties in form and substance substantially
similar to the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule H with
respect to the Underlying Term Loan and the Underlying Mortgage Property (except
with respect to Mezzanine Loans) and (B) representations and warranties regarding
good title, no liens, no modifications, no defaults and valid assignment with
respect to the Loan itself; and

     (ii) in the case of a B Note, the representations and warranties in form and
substance substantially similar to the representations and warranties set forth as
Schedule I with respect to such B Note;

     (iii) in the case of a Participation, the representations and warranties in
form and substance substantially similar to the representations and warranties set
forth as Schedule J with respect to such Participation;

     (iv) in the case of a Mezzanine Loan, the representations and warranties in
form and substance substantially similar to the representations and warranties set
forth as Schedule K with respect to such Mezzanine Loan;

     (v) in the case of a Preferred Equity Security, the representations and
warranties in form and substance substantially similar to the representations and
warranties set forth as Schedule M with respect to such Preferred Equity
Security;

     (vi) in the case of a CMBS Security, the representations and warranties in form
and substance substantially similar to the representations and warranties set forth
as Schedule L with respect to such CMBS Security; and

     (vii) representations and warranties that the Collateral Obligation satisfies
the Eligibility Criteria and that, in the event that it receives notice that such
Collateral Obligation is or becomes an Ineligible Collateral Obligation, it

- 266 -

 

will repurchase and/or replace such Collateral Obligation in accordance with
Section 12.7.

     (b) The representations and warranties in Section 16.5(a) with respect to the
acquisition of a Subsequent Collateral Obligation may be subject to any modification, limitation or
qualification that the Collateral Manager determines to be acceptable in accordance with the
Collateral Manager Servicing Standard; provided that the Collateral Manager will provide each
Rating Agency with a report attached to each Monthly Report identifying each such modification,
exception, limitation or qualification received with respect to the acquisition of any Subsequent
Collateral Obligation during the period covered by the Monthly Report, which report may contain
explanations by the Collateral Manager as to its determinations.

     (c) The Issuer shall obtain a covenant from the Person making any representation or warranty
to the Issuer pursuant to Section 16.5(a) that such Person shall, in accordance with
Section 12.7, substitute and/or repurchase the related Collateral Obligation if any such
representation or warranty is breached (but only after the expiration of any permitted cure periods
and failure to cure such breach). The purchase price for any Collateral Obligation repurchased
(the “Repurchase Price”) shall be a price equal to the sum of the following (in each case,
without duplication) as of the date of such repurchase: (i) the outstanding principal amount
thereof, plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Collateral Obligation, plus (iii) any
unreimbursed advances, plus (iv) accrued and unpaid interest on advances on the Collateral
Obligation, plus (v) any reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, the cost of
any enforcement action, incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee in connection with any such purchase
by a seller).

     Section 16.6. Operating Advisor; Additional Debt.

     If the Issuer, as holder of a B Note, a Participation, Preferred Equity Security or a
Mezzanine Loan, has the right pursuant to the related Underlying Instruments to appoint the
operating advisor, directing holder or Person serving a similar function under the Underlying
Instruments, each of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral Manager shall take such actions as
are reasonably necessary to appoint the Collateral Manager to such position. If the Issuer, as
holder of a B Note, a Participation or a Mezzanine Loan, has the right pursuant to the related
Underlying Instruments to consent to the related obligor incurring any additional debt, such
consent will be subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition.

the ability of the Advancing Agent to perform its obligations under this Indenture;

     (d) no litigation is pending or, to the best of the Advancing Agent’s knowledge, threatened,
against the Advancing Agent that would materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or
enforceability of this Indenture or the ability of the Advancing Agent to perform any of its
obligations under this Indenture in accordance with the terms hereof; and

     (e) no consent, approval, authorization or order of or declaration or filing with any
government, governmental instrumentality or court or other person is required for the performance
by the Advancing Agent of its duties hereunder, except such as have been duly made or obtained.

- 269 -

 

     Section 17.5. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

     (a) No resignation or removal of the Advancing Agent and no appointment of a successor
Advancing Agent pursuant to this Article 17 shall become effective until the acceptance of
appointment by the successor Advancing Agent under Section 17.6.

     (b) The Advancing Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer,
the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Noteholders and each Rating
Agency.

     (c) The Advancing Agent may be removed at any time by the Certificateholder upon written
notice delivered to the Trustee and to the Issuer.

     (d) If the Advancing Agent fails to make an Interest Advance required by this Indenture with
respect to a distribution date, the Trustee, in its capacity as Back-Up Advancing Agent, shall be
required to make such Interest Advance and shall be entitled to receive, in consideration thereof,
the Advancing Agent Fee (in lieu of the Back-Up Advancing Fee) in accordance with the Priority of
Payments.

     (e) In addition, if the Advancing Agent shall have failed to make an Interest Advance required
by this Indenture, which failure is not cured by the remittance of the amount of such Interest
Advance by the Advancing Agent to the Trustee within 30 days of such failure, such Advancing Agent
shall be deemed to have automatically (and without the need for any act on the part of any Person)
resigned as an advancing agent hereunder and the Trustee shall automatically (and without the need
for any act on the part of any Person) assume the capacity of the successor Advancing Agent
hereunder. Thereafter, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of becoming the
successor Advancing Agent, the Advancing Agent Fee (for so long as the Trustee acts as successor
Advancing Agent) in lieu of the Backup Advancing Agent Fee in accordance with the Priority of
Payments.

     (f) If the Advancing Agent shall resign or be removed, upon receiving such notice of
resignation or removal, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor advancing agent by written
instrument, in duplicate, executed by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer, one copy of which shall
be delivered to the Advancing Agent so resigning and one copy to the successor Advancing Agent,
together with a copy to each Noteholder, the Trustee, each Hedge Counterparty and the Collateral
Manager; provided that such successor Advancing Agent shall be appointed only subject to
satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition and upon the written consent of the Certificateholder.
If no successor Advancing Agent shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a
successor Advancing Agent shall not have been delivered to the Advancing Agent within 30 days after
the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Advancing Agent, the Trustee or the
Certificateholder, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Advancing Agent.

     (g) The Issuer shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Advancing
Agent and each appointment of a successor Advancing Agent by mailing written notice of such event
by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Rating Agency, each

- 270 -

 

Hedge Counterparty and to the Noteholders as their names and addresses appear in the Notes
Register.

     (h) No resignation or removal of the Advancing Agent and no appointment of a Successor
Advancing Agent shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the Successor
Advancing Agent.

     Section 17.6. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Advancing Agent.

     (a) Every successor Advancing Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver
to the Issuer, each Hedge Counterparty, the Collateral Manager, the Trustee and the retiring
Advancing Agent an instrument accepting such appointment. Upon delivery of the required
instruments, the resignation or removal of the retiring Advancing Agent shall become effective and
such successor Advancing Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested
with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Advancing Agent.

     (b) No appointment of a successor Advancing Agent shall become effective unless each Rating
Agency has confirmed in writing that the employment of such successor would not adversely affect
the rating on the Notes.

ARTICLE 18.

CLASS A-1R NOTES

     Section 18.1. Class A-1R Draw Amount; Limits and Requirements For Available
Commitments.

     (a) Pursuant to the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement and subject to compliance with the
conditions set forth therein and herein, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the
Issuer) may request, and the Holders of the Class A-1R Notes (or any Liquidity Provider with
respect to such Holders) shall be obligated to make, advances under the Class A-1R Notes (each such
advance, a “Class A-1R Draw”). Pursuant to the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement, each
holder of the Class A-1R Notes shall commit to fund one or more Class A-1R Draws, subject to
compliance with certain borrowing conditions specified therein and herein, to the Issuer in an
aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding of up to the full amount of its respective
Class A-1R Commitment.

     (b) On any Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Time, the Issuer may (at the
direction of the Collateral Manager, acting pursuant to the Collateral Management Agreement)
request, and the holders of the Class A-1R Notes if so requested shall advance, Class A-1R Draws
(the date of any such Class A-1R Draw, a “Class A-1R Draw Date”); provided that the
Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A-1R Notes (assuming that the full amount requested is
advanced) shall not exceed the Maximum Class A-1R Commitment and each other applicable condition to
such Class A-1R Draw set forth in the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement is satisfied.
Notwithstanding the failure to satisfy any such conditions and except under certain circumstances
specified in the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement, the holders of Class A-1R Notes will be
obligated to make advances to the Issuer in

- 271 -

 

connection with Class A-1R Draws. Any Class A-1R Draw shall be made by the Collateral Manager
on behalf of the Issuer, pro rata, according to the unused portion of the Class A-1R Commitment of
each holder of Class A-1R Notes.

     (c) The aggregate amount of all Class A-1R Commitments shall be equal to up to
U.S.$200,000,000 on the Closing Date (the “Maximum Class A-1R Commitment”). After the
Replenishment Period, the Collateral Manager shall be able to make a one time election to reduce
the Maximum Class A-1R Commitment in an amount specified to the Trustee and the Class A-1R Note
Agent in writing. The Class A-1R Commitments will terminate on the first to occur of the following
(the “Commitment Termination Time”): (i) the date on which the future advance amounts
relating to Future Advance Loans and Revolving Loans are reduced to zero and the Collateral Manager
has notified the Trustee in writing that it will not cause the Issuer to acquire any further Future
Funding Loans and Revolving Loans; (ii) the date on which the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of each
of the Class A-1A Notes and the Class A-1R Notes has been paid in full; or (iii) the Redemption
Date.

     (d) Draws may be made from time to time in accordance with the Class A-1R Note Purchase
Agreement. The Issuer shall duly and punctually perform each of its obligations under the Class
A-1R Note Purchase Agreement. The Issuer shall not be required, and pursuant to the Class A-1R
Note Purchase Agreement shall be under no obligation, to borrow any amount under the Class A-1R
Notes on the Closing Date or at any other time; provided, that the Issuer may be subject to a
Class A-1R Commitment Fee on any undrawn amount. During the Replenishment Period, amounts may be
borrowed, repaid and re borrowed through Class A-1R Draws, to fund future advance amounts relating
to Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans and Issuer Held Revolving Loans, to acquire and fund future
advance amounts relating to Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving
Loans, to acquire additional Collateral Obligations and for any other purpose permitted under the
Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement. After the last day of the Replenishment Period, no further
Class A-1R Draws may be made except to fund advances relating to Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans and
Issuer Held Revolving Loans or to acquire and fund advances relating to Third-Party Held Delayed
Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans.

     (e) Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to a
proposed Class A-1R Draw, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall provide notice to
the Class A-1R Note Agent (with a copy to the Trustee) of the Issuer’s intention to effect a Class
A-1R Draw. Any such notice shall include: (a) the Class A-1R Draw Date, (b) the amount of such
Class A-1R Draw and (c) wire instructions and account information for the Class A-1R Draw. Each
Class A-1R Draw shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to U.S.$500,000 (and integral
multiples of U.S.$1.00 in excess thereof) (or the remaining available amount of the Class A-1R
Commitments if such remaining amount is less than U.S.$500,000). Promptly following receipt of a
Class A-1R Draw request, the Class A-1R Note Agent shall be obligated pursuant to the Class A-1R
Note Purchase Agreement to forward a copy of such request by fax or e mail to each holder of Class
A-1R Notes (with a copy to the Trustee). The holders of Class A-1R Notes shall be required to fund
such Class A-1R Draw on the second Business Day following the Business Day on which such notice is
received by the Class A-1R Note Agent or, if later, the Class A-1R Draw Date specified in such
notice.

- 272 -

 

     (f) At any time, Principal Proceeds, Class A-1R Draws and amounts on deposit in the Delayed
Funding Obligations Account (with respect to Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans and Issuer Held
Revolving Loans only) and the Class A-1R Suspense Account (with respect to Third-Party Held Delayed
Draw Loans and Third-Party Held Revolving Loans only) may be applied to fund future advances or
future draws relating to Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans or Issuer Held Revolving Loans or to
acquire and fund future advances or future draws relating to Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans or
Third-Party Held Revolving Loans, as applicable, as described in Section 10.5 and
Section 10.7. After the occurrence of an Event of Default but prior to acceleration of the
Notes, Class A-1R Draws shall be applied only to fund future advance amounts relating to Issuer
Held Delayed Draw Loans and Issuer Held Revolving Loans included in the Collateral Obligations and
to acquire and fund future advance amounts relating to Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Term Loans and
Third-Party Held Revolving Loans included in the Collateral Obligations, and shall not be used to
acquire any other Collateral Obligations

     (g) To the extent that a Class A-1R Draw (or a portion thereof) is being made to fund future
advance amounts relating to Issuer Held Delayed Draw Loans or Issuer Held Revolving Loans, the
Trustee shall (at the direction of the Collateral Manager) upon receipt of the proceeds of any
Class A-1R Draw, deposit such proceeds (or the applicable portion thereof) into the Delayed Funding
Obligations Account where such amounts shall be applied as described Section 10.5.

     (h) To the extent that a Class A-1R Draw (or a portion thereof) is being made to acquire and
fund future advance amounts relating to Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loans or Third-Party Held
Revolving Loans, the Trustee shall (at the direction of the Collateral Manager) upon receipt of the
proceeds of any Class A-1R Draw, deposit such proceeds (or the applicable portion thereof) into a
segregated subaccount of the Unused Proceeds Account where such amounts shall be used to acquire
and fund such future advance amounts.

     Section 18.2. The Class A-1R Interest and The Class A-1R Commitment Fee.

     (a) Interest on the Class A-1R Notes shall be payable from the date of a Class A-1R Draw, and
accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date; provided that,
interest accrued in respect of amounts borrowed under the Class A-1R Notes during the period
following the Determination Date through such Payment Date will be payable (without penalty
interest thereon) on the next succeeding Payment Date. With respect to any Payment Date, interest
on the Class A-1R Notes will be an amount payable in arrears equal to (A) the product of (i) the
Weighted Average Drawn Class A-1R Note Portion during the related Interest Accrual Period, (ii) the
Class A-1R Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period and (iii) the actual number of days elapsed
in such Interest Accrual Period, divided by (B) 360; provided that, interest accrued in respect of
amounts borrowed under the Class A-1R Notes during the period following the Determination Date
through such Payment Date will be payable (without penalty interest thereon) on the next succeeding
Payment Date. Interest on the Class A-1R Notes shall be payable from the date of each Class A-1R
Draw under the Class A-1R Notes, and accrued and unpaid interest will be payable in arrears on each
Payment Date. Interest shall be payable to the holders of the Class A-1R Notes, pro rata, based on
their Class A-1R Interest Allocation Percentage.

- 273 -

 

     (b) The Class A-1R Commitment Fee shall accrue on the undrawn amount of each Class A-1R
Commitment for each Interest Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to 0.20% (computed on the
basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed). The Class A-1R Commitment Fee
shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date and will rank pari passu with the payment of
interest on each of the Class A-1A Notes and the Class A-1R Notes; provided that the position of
the Class A-1R Commitment Fee allocable to the period following the Determination Date through such
Payment Date will be payable (without penalty or interest) on the next succeeding Payment Date.
Interest at the Class A-1R Rate will accrue on any portion of the Class A-1R Commitment Fee that is
not paid when due.

     Section 18.3. Prepayments of the Class A-1R Notes.

     (a) Prior to the Commitment Termination Time, the Class A-1R Notes may be repaid (in whole or
in part) on any Business Day, at the option of the Issuer (at the direction of the Collateral
Manager), upon two Business Days written notice to the Trustee and the Class A-1R Note Agent,
without payment of a premium (other than Class A-1R Breakage Costs), and prior to any payments on
any other Class of Notes, from (x) Principal Proceeds to the extent Principal Proceeds are
available for such application pursuant to the Priority of Payments provisions described in
Section 11.1(a)(ii) and (y) amounts on deposit in the Delayed Funding Obligations Account
and the Class A-1R Suspense Account as described in Section 10.5 and Section 10.7,
but subject to the payment by the Issuer of Class A-1R Breakage Costs, if any. Any Class A-1R
Breakage Costs shall be paid in accordance with the Priority of Payments on the Payment Date
following the applicable Class A-1R Prepayment Date.

     (b) Subject to compliance with certain draw conditions specified in the Class A-1R Note
Purchase Agreement, all such repaid amounts may be re-borrowed until the Commitment Termination
Time.

     (c) The Issuer will make all Class A-1R Prepayments of the Class A-1R Notes, pro rata, based
on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A-1R Notes. The aggregate principal amount of any
partial voluntary Class A-1R Prepayment, in respect of the Class A-1R Notes (taken as a whole),
shall be at least U.S.$500,000 (and integral multiples of U.S.$1.00 in excess thereof) or, if the
Aggregate Outstanding Amount under the Class A-1R Notes is less than U.S.$500,000, such lesser
amount. The Issuer shall make all Class A-1R Prepayments pro rata based on the Aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Class A-1R Notes at the time such prepayment is made.

     Section 18.4. Class A-1R Rating Criteria.

     At the time of its purchase of a Class A-1R Note and prior to the Commitment Termination Time,
each Holder of a Class A-1R Note must satisfy the Class A-1R Rating Criteria. If any Holder of
Class A-1R Notes at any required time fails to satisfy the Class A-1R Rating Criteria and such
Holder shall not have deposited cash in a Holder Subaccount in such amount and at such time as
required by the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement to which such Holder is a party, the Collateral
Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall use reasonable efforts promptly to replace such Holder with
another entity that meets the Class A-1R Rating Criteria (by requiring the replaced Holder to
transfer all of its rights and obligations in respect of the

- 274 -

 

Class A-1R Notes to the transferee entity). The purchase of Class A-1R Notes (whether in
connection with the initial placement or in a subsequent transfer) by any purchaser who does not
satisfy the Class A-1R Rating Criteria set forth in clause (a) of the definition thereof at the
time of such purchase but who is then entitled to the benefits of a Liquidity Facility described in
clause (c) of such definition shall not be permitted.

     Section 18.5. Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account.

     (a) The Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated trust account
which shall be designated as the “Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account,” which shall be
held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A-1R Notes (and, to the extent of amounts
applied in accordance with the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement for such purpose, for the benefit
of the Holders of the Notes) and each Liquidity Provider and over which the Trustee shall have
exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in,
or otherwise to the credit of, the Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account shall be held in trust by
the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A-1R Notes. If at any time any Holder of a
Class A-1R Note shall be required to deposit funds into the Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account
pursuant to the terms of the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement, then (i) the Collateral Manager
shall direct the Trustee to and the Trustee shall create a segregated subaccount of the Class A-1R
Holder Collateral Account for such Class A-1R Holder (each, a “Holder Subaccount”) and (ii)
the Class A-1R Note Agent shall deposit all funds received from such Holder into such Holder
Subaccount. All payments of principal of the Class A-1R Notes otherwise payable to such Holder
shall be deposited in such Holder Subaccount to the extent provided in the Class A-1R Note Purchase
Agreement. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds credited to a Holder
Subaccount shall, notwithstanding the occurrence of any Event of Default, be to satisfy such
Holder’s obligations under the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement, as specified in this Section
18.5 and to return such amounts to such Holder in accordance with Section 18.5(d).

     (b) The deposit of funds into a Holder Subaccount pursuant to Section 18.5(a) by any
Holder of a Class A-1R Note shall not constitute a Draw by the Issuer and shall not constitute a
utilization of the Class A-1R Commitment of such Holder, and the funds so deposited shall not
constitute principal outstanding under such Class A-1R Note. However, from and after the
establishment of a Holder Subaccount with respect to any Holder of Class A-1R Notes until otherwise
provided below, (i) the obligation of such Holder to advance funds under its Class A-1R Notes as
part of any Class A-1R Draw under this Indenture and the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement shall
be satisfied by the Collateral Manager withdrawing funds from such Holder Subaccount in the amount
of such Holder’s share of such Class A-1R Draw (determined in accordance with the Class A-1R Note
Purchase Agreement), and (ii) all payments of principal with respect to advances made by such
Holder under its Class A-1R Notes (whether or not originally funded from such Holder Subaccount)
(and, in the case of any defaulting Holder, all payments of interest thereon) shall be satisfied by
the Collateral Manager depositing or causing the deposit of the related funds into such Holder
Subaccount in the amount of such Holder’s share of such Class A-1R Draw (determined in accordance
with the Class A-1R Note Purchase Agreement), with notice of such deposit to the Class A-1R Note
Agent. The Collateral Manager shall have full power and authority to withdraw funds (with notice
of any such withdrawal to the Class A-1R Note Agent) from each such Holder Subaccount at the time
of, and

- 275 -

 

in connection with, the making of any such Class A-1R Draw and to deposit funds (with notice
of any such deposit to the Class A-1R Note Agent) into each such Holder Subaccount, all in
accordance with the terms of and for the purposes set forth in this Indenture and the related Class
A-1R Note Purchase Agreement.

     (c) If at any time the amount of funds on deposit in the Holder Subaccount relating to any
Holder of Class A-1R Notes, net of any reinvestment earnings in respect of Class A-1R Permitted
Investments, exceeds the undrawn amount of the Class A-1R Commitment of such Holder (whether due to
a reduction in the Class A-1R Commitment or otherwise), then the Collateral Manager on behalf of
the Issuer shall instruct the Trustee to remit to such Holder a specified portion of such funds
then held in the related Holder Subaccount in an amount equal to such excess.

     (d) If at any time a Holder of Class A-1R Notes is no longer required to deposit or maintain
funds in the Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account pursuant to the terms of its Class A-1R Note
Purchase Agreement to which such Holder is a party, then the Collateral Manager shall notify the
Trustee of such fact and direct the Trustee to remit all funds then held in the relevant Holder
Subaccount (after giving effect to any Class A-1R Draw in respect of such Class A-1R Notes to be
made on such date) (other than reinvestment earnings in respect of Class A-1R Permitted Investments
which shall be remitted to such Holder (with notice thereof to the Class A-1R Note Agent), and
thereafter all payments of principal and interest with respect to advances made by such Holder
shall be paid directly to such Holder in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Class
A-1R Note Purchase Agreement.

     (e) The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the Class
A-1R Holder Collateral Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the
Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of
attachment, execution or similar process. The Issuer shall not have any legal, equitable or
beneficial interest in the Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account. The Class A-1R Holder Collateral
Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office of a financial institution having
a long term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “A” or “A2,” as applicable, and a
short term debt rating at least equal to “A-1” or “P-1,” as applicable.

     (f) For so long as any amounts are on deposit in a Holder Subaccount, the Trustee shall, at
the written direction of the related Class A-1R Noteholder (which may be in the form of standing
instructions), invest and reinvest such funds in investments which satisfy the definition of the
term “Permitted Investments” but which mature not later than the day following the date of
acquisition thereof (collectively, “Class A-1R Permitted Investments”). Investment earnings
received by the Trustee during each Due Period in respect of Class A-1R Holder Collateral Account
Permitted Investments in the Holder Subaccount of a Holder of Class A-1R Notes will (so long as
such Holder is not a Defaulting Holder) be paid to such Holder on the related Distribution Date. In
the absence of such instructions, such funds will remain uninvested.

is payable by an Obligor on the due date under the related Collateral Obligation.

- 9 -

 

not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the
Reimbursement Rate, from late collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Collateral
Obligation. In making such recoverability determination, such Person will be entitled to consider,
among other things (a) (i) amounts that may be realized on each Underlying Mortgage Property in its
“as is” or then current condition and occupancy, and (ii) with respect to an Underlying Mortgage
Property for which then current cash flow is reduced due to construction or repositioning, amounts
that may be realized from the projected cash flow and value of such Underlying Mortgage Property;
provided, however, that such Person has a reasonable belief that such projected
cash flow and value are achievable; (b) that the related Senior Tranches of any Collateral
Obligation may be required to be fully paid and any advances (and interest thereon) made in respect
of such Senior Tranches may be required to be fully reimbursed, prior to any amounts recovered in

Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance). Any such Person may obtain promptly upon
request, from the Special Servicer, any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value
estimates or other information in the Special Servicer’s possession for making a recoverability
determination. The Collateral Manager shall, in the first instance, have the right to determine,
in accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard, whether any Servicing Advance
previously made is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if
made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Such determination shall be evidenced
by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by the Collateral Manager to the Special Servicer, the
Servicer and to the Issuer. If, however, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
makes a determination in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that any Servicing Advance
previously made is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if
made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s
determination shall be binding on the Collateral Manager and shall override any prior determination
by the Collateral Manager. Any such determination by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an
Officer’s Certificate delivered by either of the Special Servicer or Servicer to the other and to
the Issuer and Collateral Manager. Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the
Collateral Manager and the Servicer or the Special Servicer. As between the Servicer and the
Special Servicer, the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination, in accordance with
Accepted Servicing Practices, that any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made is
a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and shall deliver to the Servicer and Collateral Manager notice
of such determination. In the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such
Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, such decision shall remain with the
Servicer. Any Officer’s Certificate described above shall set forth such determination of
nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Collateral Manager, the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to
the extent available, information such as related income and expense statements, rent rolls,
occupancy status and property inspections, and

- 10 -

 

shall include an Appraisal of the related Whole Loan (or, to the extent that the holder of a
Mezzanine Loan has the right to make Servicing Advances, Mezzanine Loan), Underlying Mortgage
Property or REO Property. The Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Servicing
Advances with any information in its possession regarding Collateral Obligations (other than those
that are Specially Serviced Investments) and the Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party
required to make Servicing Advances with any information in its possession regarding the Specially
Serviced Investments as such party required to make Servicing Advances may reasonably request for
purposes of making recoverability determinations. In the case of a cross-collateralized Loan, such
recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related
cross-collateralized Loan.

shall be obligated to service and administer (i) any Specially Serviced Investment and (ii) any REO
Properties and REO Other Collateral; provided, that the Servicer shall continue to receive
payments and make all calculations, and prepare, or cause to be prepared, all reports, required
hereunder with respect to the Specially Serviced Investments, except for the reports specified
herein as prepared by the Special Servicer, as if no Special Servicing Transfer Event had occurred
and with respect to the REO Properties and REO Other Collateral (and the related REO Loans) as if
no acquisition of such REO Properties and REO Other Collateral had occurred, and to render such
services with respect to such Specially Serviced Investments and REO Properties and REO Other
Collateral as are specifically provided for herein; provided, further, however, that the
Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results
from a failure of the Special Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Servicer to comply
with such duties or failure by the Special Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations
hereunder. Each Collateral Obligation that becomes a Specially Serviced Investment shall continue
as such until satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.16. Without limiting
the foregoing, subject to Section 3.16, the Servicer shall be obligated to service

- 19 -

 

and administer all Collateral Obligations which are not Specially Serviced Investments. The
Special Servicer shall make the inspections, use its reasonable efforts to collect the statements
and forward to the Servicer reports in respect of the related Underlying Mortgage Properties, REO
Properties or REO Other Collateral with respect to Specially Serviced Investments in accordance
with, and to the extent required by, Section 3.12. After notification to the Servicer, the
Special Servicer may contact the Obligor of any Performing Investment if efforts by the Servicer to
collect required financial information have been unsuccessful or any other issues remain
unresolved. Such contact shall be coordinated through and with the cooperation of the Servicer.
No provision herein contained shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of the collectability or recoverability of payments on
the Collateral Obligations or shall be construed to impair or adversely affect any rights or
benefits provided by this Agreement to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be
(including with respect to Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees or the right to be reimbursed for
Servicing Advances and interest accrued thereon). Any provision in this Agreement for any
Servicing Advances or Servicing Expenses by the Servicer is intended solely to provide liquidity
for the benefit of the CLO Noteholders and not as credit support or otherwise to impose on any such
Person the risk of loss with respect to one or more of the Collateral Obligations. No provision
hereof shall be construed to impose liability on the Servicer or the Special Servicer for the
reason that any recovery to the CLO Noteholders or the Certificateholder in respect of a Collateral
Obligation at any time after a determination of present value recovery is less than the amount
reflected in such determination.

     Section 2.02. Reserved.

Section 2.03. Authority of the Servicer or the Special Servicer.

          (a) In performing its Servicing or Special Servicing obligations hereunder, the Servicer or
Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall, except as otherwise provided herein and subject to the
terms of this Agreement, have full power and authority, acting alone or through others, to take any
and all actions in connection with such Servicing or Special Servicing, as applicable, that it
deems necessary or appropriate in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, each of the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, is
hereby authorized and empowered by the Issuer when the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case
may be, deems it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Issuer, (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or
instruments necessary to maintain the lien of each Mortgage on the related Underlying Mortgage
Property and any other related Collateral and the lien of the Mezzanine Loan Documents on the
related Collateral; and (ii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial
or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments with respect to each of the
Collateral Obligations; provided, however, that the Servicer or Special Servicer,
as the case may be, shall notify the Collateral Manager in writing in the event that the Servicer
or Special Servicer, as the case may be, intends to execute and deliver any such instrument
referred to in clause (ii) above and, except in connection with any payment in full of any
Collateral Obligation or any release otherwise required by the related Underlying Instruments,
shall proceed with such course of action only upon receipt of the written approval thereof by the
Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer); provided,
further, however, that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
shall not take any action

- 20 -

 

to the extent that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such action or inaction (1) may cause a
violation of applicable laws, regulations, codes, ordinances, court orders or restrictive covenants
with respect to any Collateral Obligation, Obligor, Underlying Mortgage Property or Collateral, or
(ii) may cause a violation of any provision of an Underlying Instrument or Accepted Servicing
Practices. The Issuer agrees to cooperate with the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, by either executing and delivering to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, from time to time (i) powers of attorney evidencing the authority and power under this
Section 2.03 of Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or (ii) such
documents or instruments deemed necessary or appropriate by the Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, to enable the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry
out its Servicing or Special Servicing obligations hereunder.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the performance of its Servicing or
Special Servicing obligations, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall take
any action or refrain from taking any action that the Collateral Manager, the Issuer or the
Advancing Agent, as applicable, directs shall be taken or not taken, as the case may be, which
relates to the Servicing or Special Servicing obligations under this Agreement;
provided, however, that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
shall not take, or refrain from taking, any action which the Collateral Manager, Issuer or
Advancing Agent, as applicable, requests that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, to the extent that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such action or inaction (i) may cause a
violation of applicable laws, regulations, codes, ordinances, court orders or restrictive covenants
with respect to any Collateral Obligation, Obligor, Underlying Mortgage Property or Collateral,
(ii) may cause a violation of any provision of an Underlying Instrument or Accepted Servicing
Practices, (iii) may expose the Servicer or the Special Servicer and their officers and directors
to claim, suit or liability, (iv) expand the scope of the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s
responsibilities under this Agreement; or (iv) may cause a violation of Accepted Servicing
Practices.

          (c) To the extent that the Collateral Manager has the right hereunder to give its consent or
make a decision with respect to any servicing matter, in the event that the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that exigent
circumstances exist such that immediate action is necessary to protect the interests of the Issuer,
the CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder, then the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
applicable, may take such action without waiting for the Collateral Manager’s response,
provided that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide prompt
notice of such action to the Collateral Manager and, prior to the expiration of the Collateral
Manager’s period of time to make a decision as provided herein, shall only take such actions as are
necessary to protect the interests of the Issuer, the CLO Noteholders and the
Certificateholder to the extent required by Accepted Servicing Practices.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to the preceding
subsections (a) through (c) and this subsection (d), the Collateral Manager shall have the right to
make any decision which is a Major Decision hereunder. The Servicer and the Special Servicer, as
applicable, shall give notice to the Collateral Manager of any decision which is a Major Decision
hereunder within two (2) Business Days of knowledge thereof. The

- 21 -

 

Collateral Manager shall give notice to the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable,
of any decision which is a Major Decision hereunder within two (2) Business Days of knowledge
thereof. The Collateral Manager shall make such Major Decision and notify the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable, of the actions to be taken with respect thereto within five (5)
Business Days of receipt of notice of such Major Decision. In the event that the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable, determines that the Collateral Manager’s decision is in accordance
with Accepted Servicing Practices, then the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall
take such actions as directed by the Collateral Manager. In the event that the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable, determines that the Collateral Manager’s decision is not in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, or if the Collateral Manager fails to give notice of
the actions to be taken within such five (5) Business Day period, then the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, shall not be bound by the Collateral Manager’s determination with respect
to such Major Decision and shall have the right to take such actions with respect thereto as the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines is in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices.

to any limitation of authority under Section 2.03, “Servicing” shall mean those
services pertaining to the Collateral Obligations which, applying Accepted Servicing Practices, are
required hereunder to be performed by the Servicer, and which shall include:

               (i) reviewing all documents in its possession or otherwise reasonably available to it
pertaining to the Collateral Obligations, administering and maintaining the Servicing Files, and
inputting all necessary and appropriate information into the Servicer’s loan servicing computer
system, all to the extent and when necessary to perform its obligations hereunder;

               (ii) preparing and filing or recording all continuation statements and other documents or
instruments necessary to cause the continuation of any UCC financing statements filed with respect

necessary to maintain the lien of any Mortgage or other relevant Underlying Instruments on the
related Underlying Mortgage Property or other Collateral but only to the extent such actions would
otherwise be required by Accepted Servicing Practices;

               (iii) monitoring each Obligor’s maintenance of insurance coverage on each Underlying Mortgage
Property, as required by the related Underlying Instruments, and causing to be maintained adequate
insurance coverage on each Underlying Mortgage Property (with respect to a Mezzanine Loan, to the
extent that the holder of such Mezzanine Loan has the

right to procure such insurance coverage under the related Underlying Instruments, as
applicable), all in accordance with and to the extent required under Section 3.05;

Servicing Practices;

               (viii) notifying all Obligors of the appropriate place for communications and payments, and
collecting and monitoring all payments made with respect to the Collateral Obligations; and

               (ix) with respect to any Mezzanine Loan, B Note or Participation, enforcing, in accordance
with Accepted Servicing Practices, the rights of the holder of such Mezzanine Loan, B Note or
Participation under any related intercreditor or participation agreement.

          (b) The Special Servicer hereby agrees to serve as the special servicer with respect to each
Specially Serviced Investment and REO Loan as provided herein in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices (“Special Servicing”).

     Section 3.02. Escrow Accounts; Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items.

          (a) Subject to and as required by the terms of the related Underlying Instruments, the
Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more Eligible Accounts (each, an “Escrow
Account”) into which any or all Escrow Payments shall be deposited promptly after receipt and
identification to the extent such Escrow Payments are provided for under such Underlying
Instruments. Escrow Accounts shall be denominated in the name of the Issuer or in such other
manner as the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) prescribes. The Servicer
shall notify the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral Manager in writing of the location and
account number of each Escrow Account it establishes and shall notify the Issuer, the Trustee and
the Collateral Manager prior to any change thereof. Except as provided herein, withdrawals of
amounts from an Escrow Account may be made only following notice to, and consent of, the Issuer
(or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer). Subject to any express provisions to the
contrary herein, to applicable laws, and to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments
governing the use of the Escrow Payments, withdrawals of amounts from an Escrow Account may only be
made: (i) to effect payment of taxes, assessments and insurance premiums; (ii) to effect payment
of ground rents and other items required or permitted to be paid from escrow; (iii) to refund to
the Obligors any sums determined to be in excess of the amounts

- 23 -

 

required to be deposited therein; (iv) to pay interest, if required under the Underlying
Instruments, to the Obligors on balances in the Escrow Accounts; (v) to pay to the Servicer from
time to time any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited therein pursuant to
Section 3.04; (vi) to apply funds to the indebtedness of the Collateral Obligation in
accordance with the terms thereof; (vii) to reimburse the Servicer or the Special Servicer, or the
Collateral Manager or the Issuer, as the case may be, for any Servicing Advance or Servicing
Expense, as the case may be, for which Escrow Payments should have been made by the Obligors, but
only from amounts received on the Collateral Obligation which represent late collections of Escrow
Payments thereunder; (viii) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Escrow Accounts which was not
required to be deposited therein; (ix) to clear and terminate the Escrow Accounts at the
termination of this Agreement; or (x) as otherwise permitted pursuant to the Underlying
Instruments. Without the prior consent of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, the Servicer may
make withdrawals from the Escrow Accounts to pay items 3.02(a)(i) and (v) above; provided,
however, the Servicer shall give the Issuer notice of such payments.

          (b) The Servicer shall maintain accurate records with respect to each Underlying Mortgage
Property, reflecting the status of taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may
become a lien thereon and the status of insurance premiums payable with respect thereto as well as
the payment of ground rents with respect to each ground lease (to the extent (i) such information
is reasonably available and (ii) in the case of B Notes, Participations and Mezzanine Loans, such
information is not otherwise provided to the Issuer pursuant to a related intercreditor or
participation agreement). To the extent that the related Underlying Instruments require Escrow
Payments to be made by an Obligor, the Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to obtain, from time
to time, all bills for the payment of such items, and shall effect payment prior to the applicable
penalty or termination date, employing for such purpose Escrow Payments paid by the Obligor
pursuant to the terms of the Underlying Instruments and deposited in the related Escrow Account by
the Servicer. To the extent that the Underlying Instruments do not require an Obligor to make
Escrow Payments (and no other loan secured by the related Underlying Mortgage Property requires
escrows or reserves for such amounts), the Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to require
that any tax, insurance or other payment referenced in the definition of Escrow Payment be made by
the Obligors prior to the applicable penalty or termination date (to the extent that the holder of
the related Collateral Obligation has the right to so require). Subject to Section 3.05
with respect to the payment of insurance premiums, if an Obligor fails to make payment on a timely
basis or collections from the Obligor are insufficient to pay any such item when due and the holder
of the related Collateral Obligation has the right to pay such premiums on behalf of the Obligor
pursuant to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments, the amount of any shortfall shall be
paid by the Servicer to the extent required in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (or, if
the Servicer fails to pay such shortfall, the Collateral Manager), subject to Section 5.02,
as a Servicing Advance, provided that the Servicer or the Collateral Manager, as the case may be,
has consulted with the Issuer regarding the timing for payment of taxes, assessments and other
similar items.

     Section 3.03. Collection Accounts.

          (a) With respect to the Collateral Obligations, the Servicer shall establish and maintain one
or more Eligible Accounts (each, a “Collection Account”) for the benefit of the Issuer for
the purposes set forth herein. Collection Accounts shall be denominated in the name

- 24 -

 

of the Issuer or in such other manner as the Issuer prescribes. The Servicer shall deposit
into the Collection Accounts within two (2) Business Days after receipt all payments and
collections received by it on or after the date hereof with respect to the Collateral Obligations,
other than Escrow Payments or payments in the nature of Additional Servicing Compensation.

          (b) The Servicer shall make withdrawals from the Collection Accounts only as follows (the
order set forth below not constituting an order of priority for such withdrawals):

               (i) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Collection Accounts which was not required to be
deposited therein;

               (ii) to remit to the Seller any amounts representing the Retained Interest not waived by the
Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.15(a)(i);

               (iii) pursuant to Section 5.01, to pay to itself the Servicing Fee (if applicable) and
any unpaid Additional Servicing Compensation on each Remittance Date;

               (iv) pursuant to Section 5.03, to pay to the Special Servicer the Special Servicing
Fee (if applicable), the Liquidation Fee, Workout Fee and any unpaid Additional Servicing
Compensation on each Remittance Date;

               (v) (A) to reimburse the Trustee, the Backup Servicer, itself, the Special Servicer and the
Collateral Manager, as applicable (in that order), for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, the
respective rights of each such person to receive payment pursuant to this clause (v) with respect
to any Collateral Obligation, Underlying Mortgage Property, REO Property or REO Other Collateral
being limited to, as applicable, related payments, including Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance and
Condemnation Proceeds and REO Proceeds, and (B) to pay or reimburse the Trustee, the Backup
Servicer, itself, the Special Servicer and the Collateral Manager, as applicable (in that order)
for any unreimbursed Servicing Expenses related to Collateral Obligations which are not Whole Loans
within five days of incurring same;

               (vi) to reimburse the Trustee, itself, the Special Servicer and the Collateral Manager as
applicable (in that order), for Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances first, from Interest Proceeds and
second (to the extent that there are insufficient Interest Proceeds for such reimbursement), from
Principal Proceeds;

               (vii) to pay to itself and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, from time to time any
interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Accounts pursuant to Section
3.04;

               (viii) to remit to the Issuer or its nominee on each Remittance Date, pursuant to wiring
instructions from the Issuer, all amounts on deposit in the Collection Accounts (that represent
good funds) as of the close of business on the Determination Date, net of any withdrawals from the
Collection Account pursuant to this Section 3.03;

               (ix) upon the direction of the Collateral Manager, to remit to the Issuer or its nominee
promptly after receipt, pursuant to wiring instructions from the Issuer, amounts on deposit in the
Collection Accounts (that represent good funds) which constitute Principal

- 25 -

 

Proceeds as determined by the Collateral Manager, it being understood that absent such
direction, such amounts will be remitted pursuant to clause (viii) above on the next Remittance
Date; and

               (x) to clear and terminate the Collection Accounts upon the termination of this Agreement.

     Section 3.04. Permitted Investments.

          The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may direct any depository
institution or trust company in which the Accounts are maintained to invest the funds held therein
in one or more Eligible Investments; provided, however, that such funds shall be
either (i) immediately available or (ii) available in accordance with a schedule which will permit
the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to meet its payment obligations
hereunder. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to all
income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Accounts as Additional
Servicing Compensation. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deposit
from its own funds in the applicable Account the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any such
investment of funds immediately upon the realization of such loss; provided that neither
the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of
funds if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state
chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Account, so long as such
depository institution or trust company satisfies the qualifications set forth in the definition of
Eligible Account in the month in which the loss occurred and at the time such investment was made.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not
direct the investment of funds held in any Escrow Account and shall not retain the income and gain
realized therefrom if the related Underlying Instruments or applicable law permit the Obligor to be
entitled to the income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited therein. In such
event, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall direct the depository
institution or trust company in which such Escrow Accounts are maintained to invest the funds held
therein (1) in accordance with the Obligor’s written investment instructions, if the Underlying
Instruments or applicable law require such funds to be invested in accordance with the Obligor’s
direction; and (2) in accordance with the written investment instructions of the Issuer (or the
Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) to invest such funds in an Eligible Investment, if the
Underlying Instruments and applicable law do not permit the Obligor to direct the investment of
such funds; provided, however, that in either event (i) such funds shall be either
(y) immediately available or (z) available in accordance with a schedule which will permit the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to meet the payment obligations for which the
Escrow Account was established, and (ii) the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
shall have no liability for any loss in investments of such funds that are invested pursuant to
such written instructions.

     Section 3.05. Maintenance of Insurance Policies.

          (a) The Special Servicer (only with respect to the REO Properties or REO Other Collateral) or
the Servicer shall use efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to cause the Obligor of
each Collateral Obligation to maintain for each Collateral Obligation such

- 26 -

 

insurance as is required to be maintained pursuant to the related Underlying Instruments;
provided that, prior to the date such existing insurance expires or is required to be renewed, the
Special Servicer or the Servicer, as applicable, may, to the extent consistent with the Servicing
Standard, take into account insurance in place at the origination of such Collateral Obligation.
If the Obligor fails to maintain such insurance, then the Special Servicer (only with respect to
the REO Properties and REO Other Collateral) or the Servicer shall notify the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager of such breach and, to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates and
that the Issuer has an insurable interest and to the extent required in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices, cause to be maintained such insurance and specifically with respect to: (i)
fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser
of (A) the sum of the current principal balance of such Collateral Obligation, REO Property or REO
Other Collateral and all debt encumbering the underlying real property which is senior to the
Collateral Obligation, and (B) the replacement cost of the improvements which are a part of the
related Underlying Mortgage Property, REO Property or underlying real property and (ii) Underlying
Mortgage Property, REO Property or underlying real property located in a federally designated
special flood hazard area, flood insurance in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an
amount equal to the lesser of (y) the sum of the unpaid principal balance of the related Collateral
Obligation or REO Loan and all debt encumbering the underlying real property which is senior to the
Collateral Obligation or (z) the maximum amount of such insurance as is available for the related
Underlying Mortgage Property, REO Property or underlying real property under the National Flood
Insurance Act. To the extent provided in the applicable Underlying Instruments, all such policies
shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Issuer, and shall be in
an amount sufficient to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause. Any costs of maintaining
the insurance policies which the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is required to
maintain pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall be paid by the Collateral Manager as Servicing
Advances , or by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as Servicing Advances
(in the case that the Collateral Manager fails to pay such costs) or Servicing Expenses and shall
be limited by the recoverability determinations related to all Servicing Advances.

          (b) The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may maintain insurance, as
provided in Section 3.05(a), through a master force placed insurance policy with a
Qualified Insurer, the cost of which shall be paid by the Collateral Manager as Servicing Advances,
or by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as Servicing Advances (in the case
that the Collateral Manager fails to pay such costs) or Servicing Expenses, provided that such cost
shall only constitute a Servicing Advance or Servicing Expense with respect to a particular
Collateral Obligation to the extent that it is limited to the incremental cost of such policy
allocable to such Underlying Mortgage Property, REO Property or underlying real property (i.e.,
other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Underlying
Mortgage Property, REO Property or underlying real property is then covered thereby, which shall be
paid by the Collateral Manager, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be). Such
master force placed insurance policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Collateral
Manager, the Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been
maintained on the related Underlying Mortgage Property, REO Property or underlying real property a
policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), and there shall have
been one or more losses which would have been covered by such a policy had it been maintained,
immediately deposit into the related

- 27 -

 

Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the master force placed
insurance policy because of such deductible to the extent that such deductible exceeds the
deductible limitation required under the related Underlying Instruments, or, in the absence of such
deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with Accepted Servicing
Practices.

          (c) Each of the Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own
expense, and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, a blanket
fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy covering the Servicer’s or the Special
Servicer’s directors, officers and employees, in connection with its activities under this
Agreement. The form and amount of coverage shall be consistent with the definition of Accepted
Servicing Practices. In the event that any such bond or policy ceases to be in effect, the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall obtain a comparable replacement bond or
policy. Any fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy required under this Section
3.05(c) shall be obtained from a Qualified Insurer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as
the unsecured obligations of the Servicer or Special Servicer (or their respective corporate
parent), as applicable, has been rated not lower than “A2” by Moody’s, “A” by S&P and “A” by Fitch,
the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to provide self-insurance
directly or through its parent (so long as such parent is obligated to pay the related claims), as
applicable, with respect to its obligation to maintain a blanket fidelity bond or an errors and
omissions insurance policy.

          No provision of this Section 3.05 requiring such fidelity bond and errors and
omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, from
its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, upon written request, and the Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, a certificate of insurance from the surety and insurer
certifying that such insurance is in full force and effect.

     Section 3.06. Delivery and Possession of Servicing Files.

          On or before the Servicing Transfer Date, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on
behalf of the Issuer) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer (i) a Servicing File
with respect to each Collateral Obligation; and (ii) the amounts, if any, received by the Issuer
representing Escrow Payments previously made by the Obligors. The Servicer shall promptly
acknowledge receipt of the Servicing File and Escrow Payments and shall promptly deposit such
Escrow Payments in the Escrow Accounts established pursuant to this Agreement. The contents of each
Servicing File delivered to the Servicer are and shall be held in trust by the Servicer for the
benefit of the Issuer. The Servicer’s possession of the contents of each Servicing File so
delivered shall be for the sole purpose of servicing the related Collateral Obligation and such
possession by the Servicer shall be in a custodial capacity only. The Servicer shall release its
custody of the contents of any Servicing File only in accordance with written instructions from the
Collateral Manager, and upon request of the Collateral Manager, the Servicer shall deliver to the
Issuer, or its nominee, the Servicing File or a copy of any document contained therein;
provided, however, that if the Servicer is unable to perform its Servicing
obligations with respect to the related Collateral Obligation after any such release or delivery of
the Servicing File, then the Servicer shall not be liable, while the related Servicing File is not
in the

- 28 -

 

Servicer’s possession, for any failure to perform any obligation hereunder with respect to the
related Collateral Obligation.

     Section 3.07. Inspections; Reports.

          (a) With respect to a Performing Investment that is a Whole Loan (or a Mezzanine Loan, B Note
or Participation to the extent that (i) the holder of such Mezzanine Loan, B Note or Participation
has the right to perform physical inspections of the related Underlying Mortgage Property and (ii)
reports of physical inspections of the related Underlying Mortgage Property are not delivered to
the Issuer pursuant to an intercreditor, servicing or participation agreement) and is secured
directly or indirectly by real property, the Servicer shall, to the extent required in accordance
with Accepted Servicing Practices, perform a physical inspection of each such real property at
least annually, beginning in 2007; provided, however, with respect to any
Performing Investment with a principal balance of $2,000,000 or less, such inspections need not be
performed more often than every 24 months, and, in addition, if at any time (a) the Issuer (or the
Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) requests such an inspection, or (b) the
Servicer, with the approval of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the
Issuer), determines that it is prudent to conduct such an inspection. The Servicer shall prepare a
written report of each such inspection and shall promptly deliver a copy of such report to the
Collateral Manager and the Issuer. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Servicer
and a reasonable fee due Servicer in connection with any such inspections (including any
out-of-pocket expenses related to travel and lodging and any charges incurred through the use of a
qualified third party to perform such services) shall, to the extent demanded by the Servicer, be
paid by the Collateral Manager as a Servicing Advance.

          (b) With respect to a Specially Serviced Investment that is a Whole Loan (or a Mezzanine Loan,
B Note or Participation to the extent that (i) the holder of such Mezzanine Loan, B Note or
Participation has the right to perform physical inspections of the related Underlying Mortgage
Property and (ii) reports of physical inspections of the related Underlying Mortgage Property are
not delivered to the Issuer pursuant to an intercreditor, servicing or participation agreement) and
is secured directly or indirectly by real property and with respect to REO Property, the Special
Servicer shall, to the extent required in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, perform a
physical inspection of each such real property (a) as soon as possible after a Special Servicing
Transfer Event and thereafter at least annually, and, in addition (b) if at any time (i) the Issuer
(or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) requests such an inspection, or (ii) the
Special Servicer, with the approval of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of
the Issuer), determines that it is prudent to conduct such an inspection. The Special Servicer
shall prepare a written report of each such inspection and shall promptly deliver a copy of such
report to the Collateral Manager, the Issuer and the Rating Agencies. The reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by the Special Servicer and a reasonable fee due the Special Servicer in
connection with any such inspections (including any out-of-pocket expenses related to travel and
lodging and any charges incurred through the use of a qualified third party to perform such
services) shall be paid as a Servicing Advance.

          (c) The Special Servicer, in the case of any Specially Serviced Investments that are Whole
Loans or Mezzanine Loans (or B Notes or Participations to the extent that (i) the holder of such B
Notes or Participations has the right to obtain the information provided in the

- 29 -

 

immediately preceding paragraph from the related Obligor and (ii) such information is not
delivered to the Issuer pursuant to an intercreditor, servicing or participation agreement), and
the Servicer, in the case of any Performing Investments that are Whole Loans or Mezzanines Loans
(or B Notes or Participations to the extent that (i) the holder of such B Notes or Participations
has the right to obtain such information from the related Obligor and (ii) such information is not
delivered to the Issuer pursuant to an intercreditor, servicing or participation agreement), shall
make reasonable efforts to collect promptly from each Obligor annual operating statements and rent
rolls of the related real property, financial statements of such Obligor and any other reports
required to be delivered under the terms of the Underlying Instruments, if delivery of such items
is required pursuant to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments.

     Section 3.08. Exercise of Remedies Upon Collateral Obligation Defaults.

          Upon the failure of any Obligor to make any required payment of principal, interest or other
amounts due under a Collateral Obligation, or otherwise to perform fully any material obligations
under any of the related Underlying Instruments, in either case within any applicable grace period,
the Servicer shall, upon discovery of such failure, promptly notify the Special Servicer, the
Collateral Manager and the Issuer in writing. As directed in writing by the Special Servicer in
each instance, the Servicer shall issue notices of default, declare events of default, declare due
the entire outstanding principal balance, and otherwise take all reasonable actions consistent with
Accepted Servicing Practices under the related Collateral Obligation in preparation for the Special
Servicer to realize upon the underlying Collateral.

     Section 3.09. Enforcement of “Due-On-Sale” Clauses; Assumption Agreements; Defeasance
Provisions.

          (a) If any Collateral Obligation contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale” clause
(including, without limitation, sales or transfers of Mortgaged Properties or underlying real
properties (in full or part) or the sale, transfer, pledge or hypothecation of a majority or
controlling direct or indirect interest in the Obligor, its subsidiaries or its owners), which by
its terms:

               (i) provides that such Collateral Obligation will (or may at the lender’s option) become due
and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Underlying Mortgage
Property or underlying real property;

               (ii) provides that such Collateral Obligation may not be assumed without the consent of the
related lender in connection with any such sale or other transfer; or

               (iii) provides that such Collateral Obligation may be assumed or transferred without the
consent of the lender, provided certain conditions set forth in the Underlying Instruments
are satisfied;

then, for so long as such Collateral Obligation is owned by the Issuer, the Servicer (with respect
to a Performing Investment) or the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced
Investment), as applicable, on behalf of the Issuer shall take such action as directed pursuant to
Section 2.03(d); provided, however the Servicer and the Special Servicer,
as applicable, shall not be required to enforce any such due-on-sale clauses and in connection
therewith shall not be

- 30 -

 

required to (x) accelerate Collateral Obligation thereon or (y) withhold its consent to such an
assumption if the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines, in accordance
with Accepted Servicing Practices (1) that such provision is not enforceable under applicable law
or the enforcement of such provision is reasonably likely to result in meritorious legal action by
the Obligor or (2) that granting such consent would be likely to result in a greater recovery, on a
present value basis (discounting at the related interest rate), than would enforcement of such
clause; provided, further prior to granting such consent with respect to a
Collateral Obligation with a stated principal balance of more than five percent (5%) of the
aggregate Collateral Obligations securing the CLO Notes or $20,000,000 or which is one of the ten
(10) largest Collateral Obligations securing the CLO Notes, the Servicer or the Special Servicer
shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation which shall not be at the personal expense of the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. If, notwithstanding any directions to the
contrary from the Collateral Manager, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices that (A) granting such consent would be
likely to result in a greater recovery, (B) such provision is not legally enforceable, or (C) that
the conditions described in clause (iii) above relating to the assumption or transfer of such
Collateral Obligation have been satisfied, the Servicer (with respect to a Performing Investment)
or the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Investment), as applicable, is
authorized to take or enter into an assumption agreement from or with the Person to whom the
related Collateral has been or is about to be conveyed, and to release the original Obligor from
liability upon the Collateral Obligation and substitute the new Obligor as obligor thereon,
provided, that the credit status of the prospective new Obligor is in compliance with the
Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as applicable, Accepted Servicing Practices and criteria and the
terms of the related Underlying Instruments. In connection with each such assumption or
substitution entered into by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall give prior notice
thereof to the Servicer. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the
Issuer and the Collateral Manager that any such assumption or substitution agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Issuer (with a copy to the Servicer, if applicable, and Collateral
Manager) the original copy of such agreement, which copies shall be added to the related Servicing
File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Servicing File to the same extent as
all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. To the extent not precluded by
the Underlying Instruments, the Servicer (with respect to a Performing Investment) or the Special
Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Investment) shall not approve an assumption or
substitution without requiring the related Obligor to pay any fees owed to the Rating Agencies
associated with the approval of such assumption or substitution. However, in the event that the
related Obligor is required but fails to pay such fees, such fees shall treated as a Servicing
Expense.

          (b) If any Collateral Obligation contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance”
clause (including, without limitation, any mezzanine financing of the Obligor or the Underlying
Mortgage Property (or any underlying real property) or any sale or transfer of preferred equity in
the Obligor, its subsidiaries or its owners), which by its terms:

               (i) provides that such Collateral Obligation shall (or may at the lender’s option) become due
and payable upon the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on the related Underlying Mortgage
Property or underlying real property;

- 31 -

 

               (ii) requires the consent of the related lender to the creation of any such lien or other
encumbrance on the related Underlying Mortgage Property or underlying real property; or

               (iii) provides that such Underlying Mortgage Property or underlying real property may be
further encumbered without the consent of the lender, provided certain conditions set forth in the
Underlying Instruments are satisfied;

then, for so long as such Collateral Obligation is owned by the Issuer, the Servicer (with respect
to Performing Investments) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced
Investments), as applicable, on behalf of the Issuer shall take such action as directed pursuant to
Section 2.03(d); provided, however the Servicer and the Special Servicer,
as applicable, shall not be required to enforce any such due-on-encumbrance clauses and in
connection therewith shall not be required to (x) accelerate Collateral Obligation thereon or (y)
withhold its consent to such an assumption if the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (1) that such provision is not
enforceable under applicable law or the enforcement of such provision is reasonably likely to
result in meritorious legal action by the Obligor or (2) that granting such consent would be likely
to result in a greater recovery, on a present value basis (discounting at the related interest
rate), than would enforcement of such clause; provided, further prior to granting
such consent with respect to a Collateral Obligation with a stated principal balance of more than
five percent (5%) of the aggregate Collateral Obligations securing the CLO Notes or $35,000,000 or
which is one of the ten (10) largest Collateral Obligations securing the CLO Notes, the Servicer or
the Special Servicer shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation at the expense of the Issuer if not
payable by the related Obligor under the terms of the related Underlying Instruments. If,
notwithstanding any directions to the contrary from the Collateral Manager, the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices
that (A) granting such consent would be likely to result in a greater recovery, (B) such provision
is not legally enforceable, or (C) that the conditions described in clause (iii) above relating to
the further encumbrance have been satisfied, the Servicer (with respect to Performing Investments)
or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Investments), as applicable, is
authorized to grant such consent. To the extent not precluded by the Underlying Instruments, the
Servicer (with respect to Performing Investments) or the Special Servicer (with respect to
Specially Serviced Investments) shall not approve an additional encumbrance without requiring the
related Obligor to pay any fees owed to the Rating Agencies associated with the approval of such
lien or encumbrance. However, in the event that the related Obligor is required but fails to pay
such fees, such fees shall reimbursable as a Servicing Expense.

          (c) With respect to any Collateral Obligation, if the Collateral Manager objects in writing to
the Servicer’s determination with respect to such Collateral Obligation (which by its terms permits
transfer, assumption or further encumbrance without lender consent, provided certain conditions are
satisfied) that the conditions required under the related Underlying Instruments have been
satisfied, then the Servicer shall not permit transfer, assumption or further encumbrance of such
Collateral Obligation.

          (d) Nothing in this Section 3.09 shall constitute a waiver of the Issuer’s rights, as
the lender of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Collateral Obligation, any sale or

- 32 -

 

other transfer of the related Collateral or the creation of any lien or other encumbrance with
respect to such Collateral.

          (e) In connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this
Section 3.09, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or
amend, and no assumption or substitution agreement entered into pursuant to Section 3.09(a)
shall contain any terms that are different from, any term of any Collateral Obligation, other than
pursuant to Section 3.15 hereof.

          (f) With respect to any Collateral Obligation which permits release of Collateral through
defeasance and subject to Sections 10.13 and 12.1 of the Indenture:

               (i) If such Collateral Obligation requires that the Servicer (on behalf of the Issuer)
purchase the required government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of Investment
Company Act of 1940, then the Servicer shall purchase such obligations, at the related Obligor’s
expense, in accordance with the terms of such Collateral Obligation; provided, that the
Servicer shall not accept the amounts paid by the related Obligor to effect defeasance until
acceptable government securities have been identified.

               (ii) To the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the related Underlying Instruments, the
Servicer shall require the related Obligor to provide (i) an opinion of counsel (which shall be an
expense of the related Obligor if the related Underlying Instruments permit such cost to be imposed
upon the related Obligor) to the effect that the Issuer has a first priority perfected security
interest in the defeasance collateral (including the government securities) and the assignment of
the defeasance collateral is valid and enforceable, and (ii) an opinion of counsel (which shall be
an expense of the related Obligor) to the effect that defeasance does not constitute a “significant
modification” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3. Such opinions, together
with any other certificates or documents to be required in connection with such defeasance, shall
be in form and substance acceptable to each Rating Agency.

               (iii) To the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the related Underlying Instruments, the
Servicer shall require a certificate, at the related Obligor’s expense, from an Independent
certified public accountant certifying to the effect that the government securities will provide
cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at
maturity) on such Collateral Obligation in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the
related Underlying Instruments.

               (iv) Except with respect to any Collateral Obligation (a) in the case of Moody’s, which has a
principal balance of less than $35,000,000, (b) in the case of S&P, which has a principal balance
of less than $20,000,000 and which principal balance does not constitute more than 5% of the
aggregate principal balance of all Collateral Obligations securing the CLO Notes, and (c) in the
case of Fitch, which has a principal balance of less than $35,000,000 and which principal balance
does not constitute more than 5% of the aggregate principal balance of all Collateral Obligations
securing the CLO Notes, prior to permitting the release of any Collateral and, if applicable,
assumption of the Collateral Obligation by a successor obligor, to the extent not inconsistent with
the terms of the related Underlying Instruments, the Servicer

- 33 -

 

shall obtain, at the related Obligor’s expense, written confirmation from each Rating Agency
that such release and assumption, if applicable, would not, in and of itself, result in a
downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings assigned to the CLO Notes.

               (v) The Servicer shall, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, enforce provisions in
the Underlying Instruments requiring Obligors to pay all reasonable expenses associated with a
defeasance.

               (vi) To the extent not inconsistent with the terms of such Underlying Instruments, or to the
extent the related Underlying Instruments provide the lender with discretion, the Servicer shall
require the Obligor to establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor obligor.

     Section 3.10. Appraisals; Realization Upon Defaulted Securities.

          (a) Promptly following any acquisition by the Special Servicer of an REO Property on behalf of
the Issuer for the benefit of the CLO Noteholders, the Special Servicer shall notify the Servicer
thereof, and, upon receipt of such notice, the Special Servicer shall obtain an updated Appraisal,
but only in the event that any existing appraisal with respect thereto is more than twelve (12)
months old, in order to determine the fair market value of such REO Property and shall notify the
Issuer, the Servicer, the Collateral Manager and the Rating Agencies of the results of such
Appraisal. Any such Appraisal shall be conducted by an Appraiser and the cost thereof shall be a
Servicing Advance. The Special Servicer shall obtain a new updated Appraisal or a letter update
every twelve (12) months thereafter until the REO Property is sold.

          (b) The Special Servicer shall monitor each Specially Serviced Investment, evaluate whether
the causes of the default can be corrected over a reasonable period without significant impairment
of the value of any Collateral Obligation or the related Collateral, initiate corrective action in
cooperation with the Obligor if, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, cure is likely, and take such
other actions (including without limitation, negotiating and accepting a discounted payoff of a
Collateral Obligation) as are consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. If, in the Special
Servicer’s judgment, such corrective action has been unsuccessful, no satisfactory arrangement can
be made for collection of delinquent payments, and the Specially Serviced Investment has not been
released from the Issuer pursuant to any provision hereof, and except as otherwise specifically
provided in Sections 3.09(a) and 3.09(b), the Special Servicer may, to the extent
consistent with the Asset Status Report (and with the consent of the Issuer (or the Collateral
Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer)) and with Accepted Servicing Practices, accelerate such
Specially Serviced Investment and commence a foreclosure or other acquisition with respect to the
related Collateral, provided, that the Special Servicer determines in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices that such acceleration and foreclosure are more likely to produce a greater
recovery to CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder (taking into account the relative priority of
the CLO Notes and the Certificate) on a present value basis (discounting at the related interest
rate) than would a waiver of such default or an extension or modification in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.15 hereof, as applicable. Neither the Servicer nor the Special
Servicer shall pay the costs and expenses in any such proceedings but shall notify the Collateral
Manager that such amounts are due and owing from the Issuer.

- 34 -

 

          (c) If the Special Servicer elects to proceed with a non-judicial foreclosure or other similar
proceeding related to personal property in accordance with the laws of the state where the
Collateral is located, the Special Servicer shall not be required to pursue a deficiency judgment
against the related Obligor or any other liable party if the laws of the state do not permit such a
deficiency judgment after a non-judicial foreclosure or other similar proceeding related to
personal property or if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices, that the likely recovery if a deficiency judgment is obtained will not be sufficient to
warrant the cost, time, expense and/or exposure of pursuing the deficiency judgment and such
determination is evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Collateral Manager and the
Issuer.

          (d) In the event that title to any Collateral is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Issuer, or to its nominee
(which shall not include the Special Servicer). Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and
cancellation of the related Collateral Obligation, as applicable, such Collateral Obligation, as
applicable, shall be considered to be an REO Loan until such time as the related REO Property shall
be sold by the Issuer for the benefit of the CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder and
shall be reduced only by collections net of expenses. Consistent with the foregoing, for purposes
of all calculations hereunder, so long as such Collateral Obligation, as applicable, shall be
considered to be an outstanding Collateral Obligation, as applicable:

               (i) it shall be assumed that, notwithstanding that the indebtedness evidenced by the related
Note shall have been discharged, such Note and, for purposes of determining the stated principal
balance thereof, the related amortization schedule in effect at the time of any such acquisition of
title shall remain in effect; and

               (ii) Net REO Proceeds received in any month shall be applied to amounts that would have been
payable under the related Note(s) in accordance with the terms of such Note(s). In the absence of
such terms, net REO Proceeds shall be deemed to have been received first, in payment of Special
Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees; second, in reimbursement of Servicing Advances;
third, the unpaid accrued interest; fourth, outstanding principal; and thereafter, net REO proceeds
received in any month shall be applied to the payment of installments of principal and accrued
interest deemed to be due and payable in accordance with the terms of such Note(s) or related
Underlying Instruments and such amortization schedule until such principal has been paid in full
and then to other amounts due under such Collateral Obligation. If such net REO Proceeds exceed
the Monthly Payment then payable, the excess shall be treated as a principal prepayment received in
respect of such Collateral Obligation.

          (e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Special
Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Issuer for the benefit of the CLO Noteholders and the
Certificateholder, obtain title to Collateral as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise, obtain title to any direct or indirect equity interest in any Obligor pledged pursuant
to a pledge agreement and thereby be the beneficial owner of Collateral, have a receiver of rents
appointed with respect to, and shall not otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action
with respect to, any Collateral if, as a result of any such action, the Issuer, for the benefit of
the CLO Noteholders or the Certificateholder, would be considered to hold title to,

- 35 -

 

to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of, such Collateral
within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of
1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Special Servicer has
previously determined in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, based on an environmental
assessment report prepared within the preceding 12 months by an Independent environmental
consultant who regularly conducts environmental audits, that:

               (i) such Collateral is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after
consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of
the Issuer to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Collateral in compliance therewith,
and

               (ii) there are no circumstances present at such Collateral relating to the use, management or
disposal of any hazardous materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment,
clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law
or regulation, or that, if any such hazardous materials are present for which such action could be
required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic
interest of the Issuer to take such actions with respect to the affected Collateral.

          In the event that the environmental assessment first obtained by the Special Servicer with
respect to Collateral indicates that such Collateral may not be in compliance with applicable
environmental laws or that hazardous materials may be present but does not definitively establish
such fact, the Special Servicer shall cause such further environmental tests to be conducted by an
Independent environmental consultant who regularly conducts such tests as the Special Servicer
shall deem prudent to protect the interests of CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder. Any such
tests shall be deemed part of the environmental assessment obtained by the Special Servicer for
purposes of this Section 3.10.

          (f) The environmental assessment contemplated by Section 3.10(e) shall be prepared
within three (3) months (or as soon thereafter as practicable) of the determination that such
assessment is required by any Independent environmental consultant who regularly conducts
environmental audits for purchasers of commercial property where the Collateral is located, as
determined by the Special Servicer in a manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. Upon
the written direction of the Special Servicer and delivery by the Special Servicer to the Servicer
of pertinent back-up information, the Servicer shall request that the Collateral Manager advance
the cost of preparation of such environmental assessments.

          (g) The Special Servicer shall take such action with respect to Collateral that is not in
compliance with applicable environmental laws as is directed by the Collateral Manager,
provided, however, if the Special Servicer determines pursuant to Section
3.10(e)(i) that the Collateral is not in compliance with applicable environmental laws but that
it is in the best economic interest of the Issuer to take such actions as are necessary to bring
such Collateral in compliance therewith, or if the Special Servicer determines pursuant to
Section 3.10(e)(ii) that the circumstances referred to therein relating to hazardous materials
are present but that it is in the best economic interest of the Issuer to take such action with
respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous materials affecting such
Collateral as is required by law or

- 36 -

 

regulation, the Special Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic
interest of the Issuer, but only if the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the
Issuer) has mailed notice to the CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder of such proposed action,
which notice shall be prepared by the Special Servicer, and only if the Issuer (or the Collateral
Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) does not receive, within 30 days of such notification,
instructions from the CLO Noteholders or the Certificateholder entitled to a majority of the voting
rights directing the Special Servicer not to take such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the Special Servicer reasonably determines that it is likely that within such 30-day period
irreparable environmental harm to such Collateral would result from the presence of such hazardous
materials and provides a prior written statement to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager setting
forth the basis for such determination, then the Special Servicer may take such action to remedy
such condition as may be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. None of the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, the Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be obligated to take any action or
not take any action pursuant to this Section 3.10(g) at the direction of the CLO
Noteholders or the Certificateholder, unless the CLO Noteholders and/or the Certificateholder agree
to indemnify the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect
to such action or inaction. The Servicer shall notify the Collateral Manager of the need to advance
the costs of any such compliance, containment, clean-up or remediation as a Servicing Advances.

          (h) The Special Servicer shall notify the Servicer of any Collateral which is abandoned or
foreclosed that requires reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Servicer with all information
regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Collateral
Obligation which is abandoned or foreclosed, and the Servicer shall report to the IRS and the
related Obligor, in the manner required by applicable law, such information, and the Servicer shall
report, via Form 1099C, all forgiveness of indebtedness to the extent such information has been
provided to the Servicer by the Special Servicer. The Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such
report to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager.

          (i) The costs of any updated Appraisal obtained pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be
paid by the Servicer as a Servicing Expense.

     Section 3.11. Annual Statement as to Compliance.

          The Servicer and the Special Servicer (each a “Reporting Person”) shall each deliver
to the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the Trustee and the Rating Agencies on or before April 30 of
each year, beginning with April 30, 2008, an Officer’s Certificate stating, as to each signatory
thereof, (i) that a review of the activities of the Reporting Person during the preceding calendar
year and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such Officer’s supervision,
and (ii) that, to the best of such Officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Reporting Person
has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such
year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each
such default known to such officer, the nature and status thereof and what action it proposes to
take with respect thereto.

- 37 -

 

     Section 3.12. Annual Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report.

          On or before April 30 of each year, beginning with April 30, 2008, each Reporting Person, at
such Reporting Person’s expense, shall cause a firm of nationally recognized Independent public
accountants (who may also render other services to the Reporting Person), which is a member of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, to furnish a statement (an “Accountant’s
Statement”) to the Collateral Manager, the Issuer, the Initial Purchaser and the Rating
Agencies, to the effect that (i) it has obtained a representation regarding certain matters from
the management of such Reporting Party, which includes an assertion that such Reporting Party has
complied with the Relevant Servicing Criteria and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted
with standards for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board, it is expressing an opinion as to whether such Reporting Person’s compliance with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria was fairly stated in all material respects, or it cannot express an
overall opinion regarding such Reporting Person’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant
Servicing Criteria. If an overall opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting
firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Each Reporting
Person shall obtain from the relevant accountants, or shall prepare an electronic version of the
Accountant’s Statement and provide such electronic version to the Issuer.

     Section 3.13. Title and Management of REO Properties and REO Accounts.

          (a) If title to any Underlying Mortgage Property or other Collateral is acquired on behalf of
the Issuer for the benefit of the Secured Parties in foreclosure, by deed in lieu of foreclosure or
upon abandonment or reclamation from bankruptcy, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in
the name of the Issuer, or its nominee (which shall not include the Servicer or the Special
Servicer). The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Issuer, shall dispose of any REO Property or REO
Other Collateral held by the Issuer as soon after acquiring it as is practicable and feasible in a
manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Special Servicer shall manage, conserve,
protect and operate each REO Property and REO Other Collateral for the Secured Parties solely for
the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.

          (b) The Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to Accepted
Servicing Practices and the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and
all things in connection with any REO Property and REO Other Collateral, all on such terms and for
such period as the Special Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the Secured Parties and
the Certificateholder and, in connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall agree to the payment
of property management fees that are consistent with general market standards. The Collateral
Manager shall pay such fees as a Servicing Advance.

          (c) The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all revenues received by it with respect to
any REO Property or REO Other Collateral separate and apart from its own funds and general assets
and shall establish and maintain with respect to any REO Property or REO Other Collateral a
segregated custodial account (each, an “REO Account”), each of which shall be an Eligible
Account and shall be denominated in the name of the Issuer to be held for the benefit of the CLO
Noteholders and the Certificateholder or other collateral or in such other manner as the Issuer
shall prescribe. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw for its

- 38 -

 

account any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in an REO Account to the
extent provided in Section 3.04. The Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be
deposited REO Proceeds in the REO Account within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such REO
Proceeds, and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and
maintenance of such REO Property or REO Other Collateral and for other Servicing Advances with
respect to such REO Property or REO Other Collateral, including:

          (i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of any REO Property or related
underlying real property (to the extent that the holder of the related REO Other Collateral has the
right to pay same), as applicable;

          (ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of any REO Property or related
underlying real property (to the extent that the holder of the related REO Other Collateral has the
right to pay same), as applicable, that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon and all
federal, state and local income taxes payable by the owner of the REO Property; and

          (iii) all costs and expenses reasonable and necessary to protect, maintain, manage, operate,
repair and restore any REO Property or related underlying real property (to the extent that the
holder of the related REO Other Collateral has the right to pay same), as applicable, including, if
applicable, the payments of any ground rents in respect of such REO Property or related underlying
real property (to the extent that the holder of the related REO Other Collateral has the right to
pay same), as applicable.

          To the extent that such REO Proceeds are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses
(i) through (iii) above, the Special Servicer shall notify the Collateral Manager to pay such
amounts as Servicing Advances. The Special Servicer may retain in each REO Account reasonable
reserves for repairs, replacements and necessary capital improvements and other related expenses.

          (d) When and as necessary, the Special Servicer shall send to the Collateral Manager and the
Issuer a statement prepared by the Special Servicer setting forth the amount of net income or net
loss, as determined for federal income tax purposes, resulting from the operation and management of
a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of
any REO Property in accordance with Sections 3.13(a) and 3.13(b). To perform its
obligations hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to retain an Independent accountant
or property manager on behalf of the Issuer for the benefit of the CLO Noteholders and the
Certificateholder to prepare such statements and the cost of which shall be paid by and reimbursed
to the Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

     Section 3.14. Cash Collateral Accounts.

          In the event that any Underlying Instruments permit or require the related Obligor to deliver
additional or substitute collateral in the form of cash (“Cash Collateral”) to the holder
of such Collateral Obligation and such Obligor deposits such Cash Collateral with the Servicer, the
Servicer shall segregate and hold such Cash Collateral separate and apart from its own funds and
general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to such Cash Collateral a

- 39 -

 

segregated custodial account, which may be a sub-account of the Collection Account (each, a
“Cash Collateral Account”), each of which shall be an Eligible Account and shall be
denominated in the name of the Issuer or in such other name as the Issuer may prescribe or as may
be required pursuant to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments to be held for the benefit
of the CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder. The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be
deposited any such Cash Collateral in the Cash Collateral Account within two (2) Business Days
after receipt of such Cash Collateral, and shall hold and disburse such Cash Collateral in
accordance with the terms of the related Underlying Instruments.

     Section 3.15. Modification, Waiver, Amendment and Consents.

          (a) The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may agree to any modification,
waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive or defer interest on and principal of, capitalize
interest on, permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing any Collateral
Obligation, and/or permit the release of the Obligor on or any guarantor of any Collateral
Obligation and/or permit any change in the management company or franchise with respect to any
Collateral Obligation without the consent of the Issuer, the Trustee or any CLO Noteholder (other
than the Collateral Manager, the Controlling Class or the Certificateholder to the extent required
in the Indenture), subject, however, to the consent and direction requirements of
Section 2.03(d) and in the case of any Collateral Obligation, to each of the following
limitations, conditions and restrictions:

               (i) other than as provided in Sections 3.03 and 3.09 and except with respect
to any penalty charges that the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may be entitled
to as Additional Servicing Compensation under this Agreement, neither the Servicer nor the Special
Servicer shall agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, or take any of the
other acts referenced in this Section 3.15(a) with respect to, any Collateral Obligation,
as applicable, that would affect the amount or timing of any related payment of principal, interest
or other amount payable under such Collateral Obligation or, in the Servicer’s or the Special
Servicer’s, as applicable, good faith and reasonable judgment, in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices, materially impair the security for such Collateral Obligation, as applicable,
or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon or materially alter, substitute
or increase the security for such Collateral Obligation, as applicable (other than the alteration
or construction of improvements thereon), or any guaranty or other credit enhancement with respect
thereto (other than the substitution of a similar commercially available guarantee or credit
enhancement contract and positive adjustments to escrows and reserves); provided,
however, that the Special Servicer may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of
any term of, or take any of the other acts referenced in this Section 3.15(a) with respect
to, a Specially Serviced Investment that would have any such effect, but only if, in the Special
Servicer’s reasonable and good faith judgment, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, a
material default on such Specially Serviced Investment has occurred or a default in respect of
payment on such Specially Serviced Investment is reasonably foreseeable, and such modification,
waiver, amendment or other action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to CLO
Noteholders and the Certificateholder (taking into account the relative priority of the CLO Notes
and the Certificate) on a present value basis, than would liquidation; and provided,
further, that the Special Servicer may waive any fee comprising the Retained Interest (other than
any origination fees, which the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to waive in any

- 40 -

 

event) with respect to any Collateral Obligation if the Special Servicer determines (in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices) that requiring the payment of such fee(s) would
result in a material impediment to the refinancing or workout of such Collateral Obligation. Any
such action taken by the Special Servicer shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate to such
effect and to which is attached the present value calculation which establishes the basis for such
determination, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Collateral Manager and to the
Rating Agencies;

               (ii) the Special Servicer may not extend the maturity date of any Specially Serviced
Investment beyond the date that is the date occurring later than the earlier of (A) two (2) years
prior to the stated maturity date of the CLO Notes and (B) in the case of a Specially Serviced
Investment secured directly or indirectly by the related Obligor’s direct or indirect interest in a
ground lease, the date that is twenty (20) years prior to the expiration date of such ground lease
(or ten (10) years prior to the expiration date of such lease upon receipt of Rating Agency
Confirmation and with the consent of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the
Issuer) (or, if required by the Indenture, the Controlling Class) if the Special Servicer gives due
consideration to the remaining term of such ground lease);

               (iii) neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit any Obligor to add or
substitute any collateral for an outstanding Collateral Obligation, which collateral constitutes
real property, unless (A) the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall have
first determined, in its reasonable and good faith judgment, in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices, based upon a Phase I environmental assessment (and such additional environmental testing
as the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems necessary and appropriate)
prepared by an Independent environmental consultant who regularly conducts environmental
assessments (and such additional environmental testing), at the expense of the related Obligor,
that such additional or substitute collateral is in compliance with applicable environmental laws
and regulations and that there are no circumstances or conditions present with respect to such new
collateral relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous materials for which
investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation would be required under
any then-applicable environmental laws and/or regulations, and (B) to the extent required by the
terms of the related Underlying Instruments, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation (the expense of
such Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be at the personal expense of the Special Servicer and/or
the Servicer, as the case may be) with respect to such proposed addition and/or substitution; and

               (iv) unless a release or substitution is permissible under the related Underlying Instrument
without the consent or approval of the lender, neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
release or substitute any Collateral securing an outstanding Performing Investment except as
provided in Section 3.09(f) and except in the case of a release where (A) the use of the
Collateral to be released will not, in the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable,
good faith and reasonable judgment, materially and adversely affect the net operating income being
generated by or the use of the related Collateral Obligation, (B) except in the case of the release
of non-material parcels or a parcel the value of which was not taken into account in the
underwriting of the related Collateral Obligation, there is a corresponding principal paydown of
such Collateral Obligation in an amount at least equal to, or a delivery of substitute collateral
with an appraised value at least equal to, the appraised value of the Collateral to be released,
(C)

- 41 -

 

the remaining Collateral and any substitute collateral is, in the Servicer’s or the Special
Servicer’s, as applicable, good faith and reasonable judgment, adequate security for the remaining
Collateral Obligation and (D) with respect to any substitution of Collateral, the Servicer or the
Special Servicer shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation (the expense of such Rating Agency
Confirmation shall not be at the personal expense of the Special Servicer and/or the Servicer, as
the case may be);

provided that notwithstanding clauses (i) through (iv) above, neither the Servicer nor the
Special Servicer shall be required to oppose the confirmation of a plan in any bankruptcy or
similar proceeding involving an Obligor if in its reasonable and good faith judgment such
opposition would not ultimately prevent the confirmation of such plan or one substantially similar.
Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall extend the maturity date on any Collateral
Obligation except pursuant to Section 3.15(a).

          (b) Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability to the Issuer, the
CLO Noteholders, the Certificateholder or any other Person if its analysis and determination that
the modification, waiver, amendment or other action contemplated by Section 3.15(a) is
reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder
(taking into account the relative priority of the CLO Notes and the Certificate) on a present value
basis than would liquidation, should prove to be wrong or incorrect, so long as the analysis and
determination were made on a reasonable basis in good faith and in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be.

          (c) All material modifications, waivers and amendments of the Collateral Obligation entered
into pursuant to this Section 3.15 shall be in writing.

          (d) The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, in writing, of any modification, waiver,
material consent or amendment of any term of any Collateral Obligation and the date thereof, and
shall deliver to the Issuer or the Trustee for deposit in the related Servicing File, an original
counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver, material consent or amendment,
by the Reporting Date in the month immediately following the execution thereof.

          (e) The Servicer or the Special Servicer may (subject to Accepted Servicing Practices), as a
condition to granting any request by an Obligor for consent, modification, waiver or indulgence or
any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within its discretion pursuant to the terms of
the instruments evidencing or securing the related Collateral Obligation and is permitted by the
terms of this Agreement and applicable law, require that such Obligor pay to it, to the extent
consistent with applicable law and the Underlying Instruments, (i) as Additional Servicing
Compensation, a reasonable and customary fee for the additional services performed in connection
with such request, and (ii) any related costs and expenses incurred by it.

          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not permit the substitution of any
Collateral pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Collateral Obligation (or any portion
thereof), if any, unless such defeasance satisfies the conditions set forth in Section
3.09(f).

- 42 -

 

          (g) Reserved.

          (h) Any modification, waiver or amendment of or consents or approvals relating to a Collateral
Obligation that is a Specially Serviced Investment or REO Loan shall be performed by the Special
Servicer and not the Servicer, and, subject to this Section 3.15(h), to the extent provided
in this Agreement, shall be subject to the consent of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting
on behalf of the Issuer) or, to the extent required by the Indenture, the Controlling Class.

          (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the Servicer or
Special Servicer determines, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that a refusal to
consent by the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer or otherwise) or,
if required by the Indenture, the Controlling Class, or any advice from the Issuer (or the
Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer or otherwise), the Issuer or the Controlling
Class would cause the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, to violate applicable law,
the terms of the applicable Underlying Instruments, or the terms of this Agreement, including
without limitation, Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer or Special Servicer shall disregard
such refusal to consent or advice and notify the Issuer and the Collateral Manager or the
Controlling Class, as applicable, the Issuer and the Rating Agencies of its determination,
including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. Further, notwithstanding the
foregoing or any other provision herein, the Servicer or the Special Servicer may take any action
with respect to any Collateral Obligation requiring the consent, direction or approval of the
Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer or otherwise), the Issuer, the
Controlling Class or the Trustee at any other time without such consent, direction or approval if
the Special Servicer determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such action
is required by Accepted Servicing Practices in order to avoid a material adverse effect on the CLO
Notes (as a collective whole) or is in the nature of an emergency.

     Section 3.16. Transfer of Servicing Between Servicer and Special Servicer; Record Keeping;
Asset Status Report.

          (a) Upon the occurrence of any Special Servicing Transfer Event with respect to any Collateral
Obligation of which the Servicer has notice, the Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to the
Special Servicer, the Issuer, the related Seller, and the Collateral Manager and shall use its
reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents (but excluding
the original documents constituting the Servicing File) and records (including records stored
electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Collateral
Obligation, as applicable, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume
its duties hereunder with respect thereto without acting through a sub-servicer. The Servicer shall
use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of
the date such Collateral Obligation becomes a Specially Serviced Investment and in any event shall
continue to act as Servicer and administrator of such Collateral Obligation until the Special
Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Collateral Obligation, which shall occur upon the
receipt by the Special Servicer of the information, documents and records referred to in the
preceding sentence. With respect to each Collateral Obligation, the Servicer shall instruct the
related Obligor to continue to remit all payments in respect of such Collateral Obligation to the
Servicer. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,

- 43 -

 

with respect to each Collateral Obligation that becomes a Specially Serviced Investment, the
Special Servicer may instruct the related Obligor to remit all payments in respect of such
Collateral Obligation to the Special Servicer, provided that the payee in respect of such payments
shall remain the Servicer. The Special Servicer shall remit to the Servicer any such payments
received by it pursuant to the preceding sentence within one (1) Business Day of receipt. The
Servicer shall forward any notices it would otherwise send to the Obligor of a Specially Serviced
Investment to the Special Servicer who shall send such notice to the related Obligor.

          (b) Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Investment has become a Corrected Investment,
the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to the Servicer and shall deliver to the
Servicer information reasonably necessary for the Servicer to resume servicing, and upon giving
such notice and information reasonably necessary for the Servicer to resume servicing, such
Collateral Obligation shall cease to be a Specially Serviced Investment in accordance with the
proviso in the definition of Corrected Investment, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service
such Collateral Obligation shall terminate and the obligations of the Servicer to service and
administer such Collateral Obligation as a Performing Investment shall resume. In addition, if the
related Obligor has been instructed, pursuant to the preceding paragraph, to make payments to the
Special Servicer, upon such determination, the Special Servicer shall instruct the related Obligor
to remit all payments in respect of such Specially Serviced Investment directly to the Servicer.

          (c) In servicing any Specially Serviced Investment, the Special Servicer shall provide to the
Trustee originals of documents included within the definition of “Servicing File” for inclusion in
the related Servicing File (to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Special
Servicer) and copies of any additional related Collateral Obligation information, including
correspondence with the related Obligor, and the Special Servicer shall promptly provide copies of
all of the foregoing to the Servicer as well as copies of any analysis or internal review prepared
by or for the benefit of the Special Servicer.

          (d) Not later than two (2) Business Days preceding each date on which the Servicer is required
to furnish reports under Section 4.01 to the Issuer, the Special Servicer shall deliver to
the Servicer, with a copy to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager, a written statement describing,
on an investment-by-investment basis, (i) the amount of all payments on account of interest
received on each Specially Serviced Investment, the amount of all payments on account of principal,
including principal prepayments, on each Specially Serviced Investment, the amount of net insurance
proceeds and Net Liquidation Proceeds received with respect to each Specially Serviced Investment,
and the amount of net income or net loss, as determined from management of a trade or business on,
the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of the REO Property relating
to each applicable Specially Serviced Investment (it being understood and agreed that to the extent
this information is provided in accordance with Section 4.01, the Special Servicer’s
reporting obligations shall be deemed to be satisfied) and (ii) such additional information
relating to the Specially Serviced Investments as the Servicer or the Issuer (or the Collateral
Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) reasonably requests to enable it to perform its duties
under this Agreement. Such statement and information shall be furnished to the Servicer in writing
and/or in such electronic media as is acceptable to the Servicer.

- 44 -

 

          (e) Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding Section 3.16(d), the Servicer
shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to each of the Specially Serviced Investments
and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information reasonably required by the Special
Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall provide the
Servicer with any information reasonably required by the Servicer to perform its duties under this
Agreement.

          (f) No later than sixty (60) days after a Collateral Obligation becomes a Specially Serviced
Investment, the Special Servicer shall deliver to each Rating Agency, the Servicer, the Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, the Backup Servicer and the Trustee, and upon request, the underwriters, a
report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Collateral Obligation and the
related Collateral. Such Asset Status Report shall set forth the following information to the
extent reasonably determinable:

               (i) date of transfer of servicing of such Collateral Obligation to the Special Servicer;

               (ii) summary of the status of such Specially Serviced Investment and any negotiations with the
related Obligor;

               (iii) a discussion of the legal and environmental considerations reasonably known to the
Special Servicer, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, that are applicable to the exercise
of remedies as aforesaid and to the enforcement of any related guaranties or other collateral for
the related Collateral Obligation and whether outside legal counsel has been retained;

               (iv) the most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the related
Underlying Mortgage Property or the related underlying real property, as applicable;

               (v) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how such Specially Serviced Investment might be
returned to performing status (including the modification of a monetary term, and any work-out,
restructure or debt forgiveness) and returned to the Servicer for regular servicing or foreclosed
or otherwise realized upon (including any proposed sale of a Specially Serviced Investment, REO
Property or REO Other Collateral);

               (vi) a copy of the last obtained Appraisal of the Underlying Mortgage Property or related
underlying real property, as applicable; and

               (vii) such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of Accepted
Servicing Practices.

          If within ten (10) Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Issuer (or the
Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in
writing, the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset
Status Report; provided, however, that such Special Servicer may not take any
action that is contrary to applicable law, this Agreement, Accepted Servicing Practices (taking
into consideration the best interests of all the CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder) or the

- 45 -

 

terms of the applicable Underlying Instruments. If the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager
acting on behalf of the Issuer) disapproves such Asset Status Report within such ten (10) Business
Day period, the Special Servicer will revise such Asset Status Report and deliver to the Collateral
Manager, the Issuer, the Rating Agencies and the Servicer a new Asset Status Report as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days after such disapproval. The
Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report until the Collateral Manager fails to
disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receiving
such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination consistent
with Accepted Servicing Practices, that such objection is not in the best interests of all the CLO
Noteholders and the Certificateholder. In any event, if the Collateral Manager does not approve an
Asset Status Report within ten (10) Business Days from the first submission of an Asset Status
Report, the Special Servicer may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report
where required to comply with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Special Servicer may, from time to
time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report,
provided such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the
terms of this Section 3.16, and in particular, shall modify and resubmit such Asset Status
Report to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager if (i) the estimated sales proceeds, foreclosure
proceeds, work-out or restructure terms or anticipated debt forgiveness varies materially from the
amount on which the original report was based or (ii) the related Obligor becomes the subject of
bankruptcy proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer (i) may, following the
occurrence of an extraordinary event with respect to the related Collateral, take any action set
forth in such Asset Status Report before the expiration of a ten (10) Business Day period if the
Special Servicer has reasonably determined that failure to take such action would materially and
adversely affect the interests of the CLO Noteholders or the Certificateholder and it has made a
reasonable effort to contact the Collateral Manager, and (ii) in any case, shall determine whether
such affirmative disapproval is not in the best interests of all the CLO Noteholders and the
Certificateholder pursuant to Accepted Servicing Practices, and, upon making such determination,
shall implement the recommended action outlined in the Asset Status Report. The Asset Status Report
is not intended to replace or satisfy any specific consent or approval right which the Collateral
Manager may have.

          The Special Servicer shall have the authority to meet with the Obligor for any Specially
Serviced Investment and take such actions consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the
related Asset Status Report. The Special Servicer shall not take any action materially inconsistent
with the related Asset Status Report, unless such action would be required in order to act in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, this Agreement, applicable law or the related
Underlying Instruments.

          No direction of the Collateral Manager shall (a) require, permit or cause the Special Servicer
to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Investment, Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable
law or any provision of this Agreement or (b) materially expand the scope of the Special
Servicer’s, Issuer’s or the Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

     Section 3.17. Certain Provisions with Respect to Future Advance Loans and Revolving
Loans

          (a) With respect to any Third-Party Held Delayed Draw Loan and Third-Party Held Revolving
Loan, the Issuer will own only the principal portion of such Loans outstanding as of the applicable
transfer date to the Issuer. Principal Proceeds received by the Servicer on any Third-Party Held
Revolving Loan shall be allocated first to the portion of such Loan owned by the Seller,
CapitalSource (or their respective Affiliates) or their special purpose entities under their
Funding Transactions, until the principal amount of such portion is reduced to zero, and then to
the portion owned by the Issuer; provided that if (i) a payment default occurs with respect
to any of the related Loans, (ii) the Seller, CapitalSource (or one of their respective Affiliates)
has determined in its sole discretion that an Obligor’s credit has deteriorated such that it
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Loans or the Seller, CapitalSource (or
one of their respective Affiliates) has determined in its sole discretion to reduce its commitment
to an Obligor, or (iii) an Event of Default occurs, then Principal Proceeds received on (A) the
applicable Loan (in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above) or (B) all the Third-Party Held Revolving
Loans (in the case of clauses (iii) above) will be allocated between the portion owned by the
Seller, CapitalSource (or their respective Affiliates) or their special purpose entities under
their Funding Transactions or other third-party and the portion owned by the Issuer pro rata based
upon the outstanding principal amount of each such portion. The Servicer will determine the
outstanding Principal Balance, the Retained Interest (if any) and the Principal Proceeds received
with respect to any Revolving Loan on the last day of each Due Period, and all other Loans on each
Business Day.

          (b) The Servicer will maintain the underlying data of all principal collections received and
payments or advances made with respect to any Revolving Loan from the Principal Collection Account
on each day during each Due Period, and shall make such underlying data available pursuant to and
in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01.

     Section 3.18. The Backup Servicer.

          (a) The Issuer hereby appoints Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., a national banking association to act
as Backup Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. hereby
accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and responsibilities with respect thereto
set forth herein.

          (b) After the termination or resignation by the Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance
with this Agreement, all authority, power, rights and responsibilities of the Servicer or Special
Servicer, under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Collateral Obligations or otherwise,
shall pass to and be vested in the Successor or the Backup Servicer, as applicable in accordance
with Section 6.03 and such applicable party shall be deemed the Successor, subject to and
in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.03, as long as such named Successor is not
prohibited by any applicable law from fulfilling the same, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel.

          (c) Any Person (i) into which the Backup Servicer may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may
result from any merger or consolidation to which the Backup Servicer

- 47 -

 

shall be a party, or (iii) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Backup
Servicer substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement
of assumption to perform every obligation of the Backup Servicer hereunder, shall (if they are
otherwise eligible) be the successor to the Backup Servicer under this Agreement without further
act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement.

          (d) As compensation for its Backup servicing activities hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall
be entitled to receive the Backup Servicing Fee from the Servicer. The Backup Servicing Fee shall
be calculated and payable on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The
Backup Servicer’s entitlement to receive the Backup Servicing Fee (other than due and unpaid Backup
Servicing Fees owed through such date) shall cease on the earliest to occur of: (i) it becoming
the Successor, (ii) its removal as Backup Servicer, or (iii) the termination of this Agreement.

          (f) Reserved.

          (g) The Backup Servicer undertakes to perform only such duties and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being expressly understood by all parties hereto that
there are no implied duties or obligations of the Backup Servicer hereunder. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Backup Servicer, except as expressly set forth herein, shall have
no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and the
Special Servicer. The Backup Servicer may act through its agents, attorneys and custodians in
performing any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, it being understood by the
parties hereto that the Backup Servicer will be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the
part of such agents, attorneys or custodians acting for and on behalf of the Backup Servicer.
Neither the Backup Servicer nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
liable, directly or indirectly, for any damages or expenses arising out of the services performed

misconduct of it or them or the failure to perform materially in accordance with this Agreement.

          (h) The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any obligation of the Servicer and/or Special
Servicer contained in this Agreement or for any errors of the Servicer and/or Special Servicer
contained in any Reporting Package and the Special Servicer Defaulted Loan File, certificate or
other data or document delivered to the Backup Servicer hereunder or on which the Backup Servicer
must rely in order to perform its obligations hereunder, and the parties hereto each agree to look
only to the and/or Special Servicer to perform such obligations. The Backup Servicer shall have no
responsibility and shall not be in default hereunder or incur any liability for any failure, error,
malfunction or any delay in carrying out any of its respective duties under this Agreement if such
failure or delay results from the Backup Servicer acting in accordance with information prepared or
supplied by a Person other than the Backup Servicer or the failure of any such other Person to
prepare or provide such information. The Backup Servicer shall have no responsibility, shall not
be in default and shall incur no liability for (i) any act or failure to act of any third party,
including the Servicer and/or Special Servicer (other than any agent, attorney or custodian acting
on behalf of the Backup Servicer), (ii) any inaccuracy or omission in a notice or communication
received by the Backup Servicer from any third party (other than any agent, attorney or custodian
acting on behalf of the Backup Servicer), (iii) the

invalidity or unenforceability of any Loan under applicable law, (iv) the breach or inaccuracy
of any representation or warranty made with respect to any Loan, or (v) the acts or omissions of
any successor Backup Servicer.

ARTICLE V.

SERVICER’S COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES

     Section 5.01. Servicing Compensation.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Servicer shall not be entitled to a
Servicing Fee in consideration for servicing the Collateral Obligations. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Backup Servicer or any other entity shall become the Successor, as
consideration for servicing the Collateral Obligations subject to this Agreement, the Successor, as
Servicer hereunder, shall be entitled to a Servicing Fee for each Collateral Obligation (other than
a Specially Serviced Investment or REO Loan) remaining subject to this Agreement during any
calendar month or part thereof. Such Servicing Fee shall be payable in accordance with this
Agreement and shall be computed on the basis of the same outstanding principal balance and for the
period with respect to which any related interest payment on the related Collateral Obligation or
distribution on the related Collateral Obligation is computed. The right to receive the Servicing
Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the
Successor’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.

          (b) The Servicer shall be entitled to retain and shall not be required to deposit into the
Collection Account any payments or collections received by it which are in the nature of Additional
Servicing Compensation accrued on any Performing Investment and actually collected.

          (c) The Servicer shall be entitled to retain, and shall not be required to deposit in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a), Additional Servicing Compensation in the
form of (i) 100% of modification, assumption, waiver and consent fees, and (ii) 100% of all
defeasance fees and application fees received on Performing Investments and 50% of all assumption,
waiver and consent fees pursuant to Section 3.09(a) and 3.09(b) on the Performing
Investments, to the extent that such fees are paid by the Obligor and for which the Special

- 50 -

 

Servicer’s consent or approval is required on the Performing Investments and only to the
extent that all amounts then due and payable with respect to the related Collateral Obligation have
been paid. In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to retain as Additional Servicing
Compensation any charges for processing Obligor requests, beneficiary statements or demands,
reasonable and customary consent fees, fees in connection with defeasance, if any, and other
customary charges, and amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds, in each case
only to the extent actually paid by the related Obligor and shall not be required to deposit such
amounts in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.03.

          (d) The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses related to the Servicer’s internal
costs, consisting of overhead and employee costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with its
servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement thereof except as
specifically provided for herein.

     Section 5.02. Servicing Advances; Servicer Expenses.

          (a) The Collateral Manager shall, in the first instance, have the right to determine, in
accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard, the necessity for all Servicing
Advances. The Collateral Manager shall, unless the particular advance would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, advance all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of
effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and similar charges that are or may
become a lien on the Underlying Mortgage Property, REO Property or the underlying real property,
(ii) ground rents (if applicable) and (iii) insurance premiums, in each instance if and to the
extent Escrow Payments collected from the related Obligor (or related REO Proceeds, if applicable)
are insufficient to pay such item when due and the related Obligor has failed to pay such item on a
timely basis and, in the case of B Notes, Mezzanine Loans and Participations, only to the extent
that the holder of such Collateral Obligations has the right or obligation to so advance such sums,
and provided, however, that with respect to the payment of real estate taxes,
assessments and similar charges, the Collateral Manager shall not be required to make such advance
until the later of five (5) Business Days after the Collateral Manager or the Issuer, as
applicable, has received confirmation that such item has not been paid or the date prior to the
date after which any penalty or interest would accrue in respect of such taxes or assessments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Servicer makes the determination that a Servicing Advance is
or is not required to be made to comply with Accepted Servicing Practices (or whether a Servicing
Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance), the Servicer’s determination shall be
binding on the Collateral Manager and shall override any prior determination by the Collateral
Manager. §

          (b) The Servicer shall give the Collateral Manager and the Issuer no less than five (5)
Business Days’ written (which may include facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which
the Collateral Manager is requested to make any Servicing Advance with respect to a given
Performing Investment; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written
(which may include facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Servicing
Advances required to be made on an emergency or urgent basis; provided, further, that the
Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Servicing Advances required
to be made on an urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than twice per calendar month (although
such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). The Collateral

- 51 -

 

Manager may pay to the Servicer the aggregate amount of such Servicing Advances listed on a
monthly request, in which case the Servicer shall provide the Collateral Manager with such
information in its possession as the Collateral Manager may reasonably request to enable the
Collateral Manager to determine whether a requested Servicing Advance would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Any request by the Servicer that the Collateral Manager make a
Servicing Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Servicer that such requested
Servicing Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, and the Collateral Manager shall be
entitled to conclusively rely on such determination; provided, that the determination shall
not be binding on the Collateral Manager. In the event that the Servicer requests that the
Collateral Manager make a Servicing Advance and the Collateral Manager determines that such
requested Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Servicer shall make such
Servicing Advance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement subject to its own further
determination of nonrecoverability.

          (c) The Special Servicer shall give the Collateral Manager, the Servicer and the Issuer no
less than five (5) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which
the Collateral Manager is requested to make any Servicing Advance with respect to a given Specially
Serviced Investment; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written
(facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Servicing Advances required to be
made on an emergency or urgent basis; provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall
not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Servicing Advances required to be made on an
urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than twice per calendar month (although such request may
relate to more than one Servicing Advance). The Collateral Manager may pay to the Special Servicer
the aggregate amount of such Servicing Advances listed on a monthly request, in which case the
Special Servicer shall provide the Collateral Manager and the Servicer with such information in its
possession as the Collateral Manager or the Servicer, as applicable, may reasonably request to
enable the Collateral Manager or the Servicer, as applicable, to determine whether a requested
Servicing Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Any request by the Special
Servicer that the Collateral Manager make a Servicing Advance shall be deemed to be a determination
by the Special Servicer that such requested Servicing Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing
Advance, and the Collateral Manager shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such
determination; provided, that the determination shall not be binding on the Collateral
Manager or the Servicer.

          (d) On the first Business Day after the Determination Date for the related Remittance Date,
the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall report to the Collateral Manager if the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines any Servicing Advance previously made
by the Collateral Manager or the Servicer is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Collateral
Manager shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such a determination, and such determination
shall be binding upon the Collateral Manager, but shall in no way limit the ability of the
Collateral Manager in the absence of such determination to make its own determination that any
Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. All such Servicing Advances shall be
reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Obligors and further as
provided in Section 3.03(b).

          (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required
hereunder if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a

- 52 -

 

Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation under this
Agreement to make any Servicing Advances. Except as set forth in Section 5.02(g), the
Servicer shall have no obligation under this Agreement to make any Servicing Advances.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.02, the Servicer may
in its reasonable judgment elect (but shall not be required) to make a payment from amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account (which shall be deemed first made from amounts distributable as
interest collections and then from all other amounts comprising principal collections) to pay for
certain expenses set forth below notwithstanding that the Servicer (or Special Servicer, as
applicable) has determined that a Servicing Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (unless, with respect to Specially Serviced Investments or REO
Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Servicer to not make such expenditure), where making
such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Underlying Mortgage Property (or underlying real
property) from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a
loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the
related Collateral Obligation; provided, that in each instance, the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as applicable, determines in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (as evidenced
by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager) that making such
expenditure is in the best interest of the CLO Noteholders and the Certificateholder.

          (f) In connection with its recovery of any Servicing Advance out of the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.03(b), the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive, out of any amounts then on
deposit in the Collection Account, interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time,
accrued on the amount of such Servicing Advance from the date made to, but not including, the date
of reimbursement. The Servicer shall reimburse the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, itself or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, for any outstanding Servicing Advance as soon as practically
possible after funds available for such purpose from collections relating solely to the Collateral
Obligation for which such Servicing Advance was made are deposited in the Collection Account.

          (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that
the Collateral Manager fails to make any Servicing Advance which the Servicer has determined is
required in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer shall make such Servicing
Advance; provided that the Servicer shall not be required to make any Servicing Advance it
determines would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance.

          (h) None of the Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Collateral Manager shall
have any liability to the Issuer, the CLO Noteholders or any other Person if its determination that
a Servicing Advance made or to be made is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance should prove to be
wrong or incorrect, so long as such determination in the case of the Collateral Manager or the
Trustee was made on a reasonable basis in good faith or, in the case of the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

     Section 5.03. Special Servicing Compensation.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Special Servicer shall not be
entitled to a Special Servicing Fee in consideration for servicing the Specially Serviced

- 53 -

 

Investments and REO Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Backup
Servicer or any other entity shall become the Successor to the Special Servicer, as compensation
for its activities hereunder, the Successor, as Special Servicer hereunder, shall be entitled to
receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each Specially Serviced Investment and REO Loan.
As to each Specially Serviced Investment and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from
time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the stated
principal balance of such Specially Serviced Investment and in the same manner as interest is
calculated on the Specially Serviced Investments and, in connection with any partial month interest
payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Specially
Serviced Investment or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Special Servicing Fee
with respect to any Specially Serviced Investment or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a
Liquidation Event occurs in respect thereof. The Special Servicing Fee shall be payable in
accordance with this Agreement, on a asset-by-asset basis, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3.03(b). The right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in
whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Successor’s responsibilities
and obligations under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses
related to the Special Servicer’s internal costs consisting as overhead and employees expenses
incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement thereof except as specifically provided for herein.

          (b) Additional Servicing Compensation in the form of (i) 100% of all fees with respect to
application, assumption, extension, modification, waiver, consent, earnout and defeasance fees, in
each case, received on any Specially Serviced Investments to the extent such fees are paid by the
Obligor, (ii) 100% of all application fees received on Specially Serviced Investments and (iii) 50%
of all assumption, waiver and consent fees pursuant to Section 3.09(a) and 3.15
received with respect to all Performing Investments and for which the Special Servicer’s consent or
approval is required, shall be promptly paid to the Special Servicer by the Servicer to the extent
such fees are paid by the Obligor and shall not be required to be deposited in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a). The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to
Additional Servicing Compensation in the form of a Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected
Investment at the Workout Fee Rate on such Collateral Obligation for so long as it remains a
Corrected Investment. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Investment will cease to be
payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Investment; provided that a new Workout Fee
will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Investment again becomes a Corrected
Investment. If the Special Servicer is terminated or resigns, it shall retain the right to receive
any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Collateral Obligation that became Corrected
Investments prior to the time of such termination or resignation, except the Workout Fees will no
longer be payable if the Collateral Obligation subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced
Investment. If the Special Servicer resigns or is terminated (other than for cause), it will
receive any Workout Fees payable on Specially Serviced Investments for which the resigning or
terminated Special Servicer had cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or
workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing with respect to which
one (1) scheduled payment has been made, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer
resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Investment solely because the Obligor had not had
sufficient time to make three (3) consecutive timely Monthly Payments and which subsequently
becomes a Corrected Investment as a result of the Obligor making such three (3) consecutive timely
Monthly Payments. The successor Special

- 54 -

 

Servicer will not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. A Liquidation Fee will be
payable with respect to each Specially Serviced Investment or REO Property as to which the Special
Servicer receives a full or discounted payoff (or an unscheduled partial payment to the extent such
prepayment is required by the Special Servicer as a condition to a workout) with respect thereto
from the related Obligor or any Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds subject
to the exceptions set forth in the definition of Liquidation Fee (such Liquidation Fee to be paid
out of such Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds). Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary described above, no Liquidation Fee will be payable and the Special Servicer shall
not be entitled to any such Liquidation Fee hereunder based on, or out of, Liquidation Proceeds
received in connection with (w) any event described in clause (iii)(A) or (B) of the definition of
“Liquidation Proceeds”, (x) any event described in clause (iv) of the definition of “Liquidation
Proceeds” if such repurchase occurs within the time parameters (including any applicable extension
period) set forth in the related Collateral Obligations Purchase Agreement, (y) any event described
in clause (v) of the definition of “Liquidation Proceeds” (except that a Liquidation Fee will be
payable with respect to any purchase by a mezzanine lender or holder of a purchase option under any
participation agreement or co-lender agreement if such purchase does not occur within the time
frame permitted by the related mezzanine intercreditor agreement, participation agreement or
co-lender agreement, provided that the related mezzanine intercreditor agreement, participation
agreement or co-lender agreement provides for payment of such fee), or (z) unless otherwise agreed
to by the Collateral Manager and the Special Servicer, the sale of any Specially Serviced
Investment consummated less than ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of the related Special
Servicing Transfer Event. If, however, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds
are received with respect to any Corrected Investment and the Special Servicer is properly entitled
to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such
Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or
interest on such Collateral Obligation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive only a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but not
both, with respect to proceeds on any Collateral Obligation.

ARTICLE VI.

THE SERVICER AND THE ISSUER

     Section 6.01. No Assignment; Merger or Consolidation.

          Except as otherwise provided for in this Section 6.01 or in Section 2.02,
neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer may assign this Agreement or any of its rights,
powers, duties or obligations hereunder without the written consent of the Issuer;
provided, however, that the Servicer or the Special Servicer may assign this
Agreement to a Qualified Affiliate without the written consent of the Issuer, as long as Servicer
or the Special Servicer remains obligated to the same extent and under the same terms and
conditions as if the Servicer or the Special Servicer alone was servicing the related Collateral
Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Special Servicer or the
Servicer, as applicable, receives Rating Agency Confirmations.

- 55 -

 

          The Servicer or the Special Servicer may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or
transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person resulting
from any merger or consolidation to which it shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to its
business, shall be the successor of the Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder, and shall be
deemed to have assumed all of the liabilities of the Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder.

     Section 6.02. Liability and Indemnification of the Servicer or the Special Servicer and
the Issuer.

          Neither the Servicer nor the Special Servicer, nor their Affiliates nor any of the members,
managers, stockholders, partners, directors, officers, employees or agents thereof nor their
Affiliates shall be under any liability to either the Issuer or any third party for taking or
refraining from taking any action, in good faith pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement,
or for errors in judgment, mistake of law or for any claim, loss, liability, damage, settlement,
Costs or other expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs and reasonable
accountants’ fees and expenses) of any nature whatsoever that arise out of or in connection with
any representation, warranty, covenant or act or omission of the Servicer, Special Servicer or such
other person in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or the Indenture or for any
decrease in value of the Collateral Obligations; provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Servicer or the Special Servicer or any such Person against any
liability which would otherwise be imposed on the Servicer or the Special Servicer or any such
Person by reason of the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of the
Servicer or the Special Servicer duties hereunder. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, and any director, officer, employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on any
document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any appropriate
Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, and any member, manager, stockholder, partner, director, officer, employee or agent thereof
and their respective Affiliates shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Issuer against any
loss, liability or expense incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with any
claim, legal action, investigation or proceeding relating to this Agreement, the performance
hereunder by, or any specific action which the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or (with respect to
the Servicer) the Special Servicer authorized or requested the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
the case may be, to perform pursuant to this Agreement, as such are incurred, except for any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of the willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence in the
performance of the duties of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or breach of
the Servicer or the Special Servicer’s representations and warranties set forth in Section
7.01. In the event that the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, sustains any
loss, liability or expense which results from any overcharges to Obligors or other Obligors under
the Collateral Obligations, to the extent that such overcharges were collected by the Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and remitted to the Issuer, the Issuer shall promptly
remit such overcharge to the related Obligor or other Obligors after the Issuer’s receipt of
written notice from the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, regarding such
overcharge.

          The Issuer and any director, officer, employee or agent thereof and their respective
Affiliates shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Servicer or the Special

- 56 -

 

Servicer, as the case may be, against any loss, liability or expense incurred, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, by reason of (i) the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in
the performance of the duties the Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder or (ii) a breach of
the representations and warranties of the Servicer or the Special Server, as the case may be, set
forth in Section 7.01.

          The provisions of this Section 6.02 shall survive any termination of the rights and
obligations of the Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder.

     Section 6.03. Eligibility; Successor; The Servicer , the Special Servicer and the Backup
Servicer.

          (a) The initial Servicer and Special Servicer shall be on S&P’s Select Servicer list as a U.S.
Commercial Mortgage Primary Servicer and a CRE CDO Special Servicer, respectively. The foregoing
requirement shall not prohibit the Backup Servicer from acting as successor servicer pursuant to
Section 7.03. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer and the Special Servicer, as
applicable, shall have six (6) months from the date hereof in which to receive the respective
designations described in the preceding sentences (provided that the Servicer and the
Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have an additional six (6) months in which to cure any
exceptions raised by the applicable Rating Agency after such Rating Agency’s initial review of the
Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, operations) unless each of the Rating
Agencies has confirmed in writing that the failure to obtain either designation shall not result in
the reduction, qualification or withdrawal of any ratings of the CLO Notes. If the Servicer has
not qualified as a U.S. Commercial Mortgage Primary Servicer on S&P’s Select Servicer list or if
the Special Servicer has not qualified as a CRE CDO Special Servicer on S&P’s Select Servicer list
within six (6) months (or, if applicable, after the expiration of the cure period described above),
then a replacement U.S. Commercial Mortgage Master Servicer on S&P’s Select Servicer list or a U.S.
Commercial Mortgage Special Servicer on S&P’s Select Servicer list, as the case may be, shall be
appointed pursuant to this Section 6.03. Any such replacement servicer may subservice the
related Collateral Obligations to the initial Servicer.

          (b) The Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Servicer and the
Special Servicer shall each be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations
specifically and respectively imposed upon and undertaken by the Issuer, the Collateral Manager,
the Trustee, the Servicer and the Special Servicer herein.

          (c) (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.03, within thirty (30) days of the
Servicer or the Special Servicer receiving a notice of termination pursuant to Section
8.01(a), the Collateral Manager, acting on behalf of the Issuer, shall identify and retain,
with Rating Agency approval as evidenced by Rating Agency Confirmation, a successor servicer or
special servicer, as applicable, which may be the Backup Servicer; or (ii) on or after the date the
Issuer receives the resignation of the Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with
Section 8.01(a), the resigning Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall
identify a successor servicer or special servicer, which may be the Backup Servicer, who shall
assume the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s duties pursuant to Section 6.03(d) (with Rating
Agency Confirmation as required thereunder) (in the case of the Backup Servicer, until such time as
a successor servicer is appointed). Such successor servicer or special servicer, as the case may
be, shall be referred to

- 57 -

 

herein as “Successor”. The Successor shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer
or Special Servicer, as the case may be, in its capacity as Servicer or Special Servicer under this
Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and
powers and be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed
on the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, accruing after such termination;
provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities
caused by the Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s failure to comply with Section 7.01 shall
not be considered a default by the Successor hereunder. In its capacity as Successor, the
Successor shall have the same limitation of liability herein granted to the Servicer or Special
Servicer, as the case may be. In connection with any such appointment and assumption, the
Collateral Manager may make such arrangements for the compensation of such Successor as it and such
Successor shall agree; provided, however, that no compensation shall be in excess
of that permitted the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. If no Successor
Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall have been so appointed and shall have
accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case
may be, receives notice of termination in accordance with Section 8.01 hereof, the Issuer
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a Successor servicer or
special servicer, as the case may be. Except as provided in Section 6.03(d) herein, until
the Successor is appointed and has accepted such appointment, the Servicer or the Special Servicer
shall continue to have all the rights, benefits and powers and be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer or Special
Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. Once appointed, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
the case may be, shall cooperate with the Successor to take such reasonable action, consistent with
this Agreement, to effectuate any such succession.

          (d) Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, neither the Servicer nor the Special
Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it, except in the event
that (i) its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material
conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it or (ii) a successor
servicer or special servicer approved by the Rating Agencies, as applicable, has assumed the
Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s as applicable, responsibilities and obligations, and Rating
Agency Confirmation shall have been obtained indicating that the replacement of the Servicer or
Special Servicer, as applicable, with such successor will not result in downgrade, withdrawal or
qualification of the then-current ratings on any class of CLO Notes. Any determination under
clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall
be evidenced by an opinion of counsel to such effect delivered to the Issuer, the Trustee and the
Rating Agencies. Except for a resignation under Section 6.03(d)(i) herein, no resignation
by the Servicer or the Special Servicer under this Agreement shall become effective until the
Successor, in accordance with Section 6.03(c), shall have assumed the Servicer’s or Special
Servicer’s, as the case may be, responsibilities and obligations. Resignation under Section
6.03(d)(i) shall be effective within thirty (30) days of such notice, unless applicable law
requires the Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s resignation to be immediate.

(A) or (B) above, citing servicing concerns with the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, as the sole or material factor in such rating action;

then, and in each and every case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Collateral Manager may, by notice in writing to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, in addition to whatever rights the Issuer may have at law or in equity, including
injunctive relief and specific performance, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, under this Agreement and in and to the
Collateral Obligations and the proceeds thereof, without the Collateral Manager incurring any
penalty or fee of any kind whatsoever in connection therewith; provided, however,
that such termination shall be without prejudice to any rights of the Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, relating to the payment of its Servicing Fees, Special Servicing
Fees, Additional Servicing Compensation and the reimbursement of any Servicing Advance or Servicing
Expense which have been made by it under the terms of this Agreement through and including the date
of such termination. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided
for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be
cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or
remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of
Default. On or after the receipt by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of
such written notice of termination from the Collateral Manager, all authority and power of the
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, under this Agreement, whether with respect to
the Collateral Obligations or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee (except that if
the Servicer and the Special Servicer are not the same entity, the authority and power of the
Special Servicer shall first pass to and be vested in the Servicer unless the Servicer has also
been terminated, and otherwise shall pass to the Trustee), and the Servicer and the Special
Servicer agree to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities
and rights hereunder of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, including, without

- 67 -

 

limitation, the transfer of the Servicing Files and the funds held in the Accounts as set forth in
Section 8.01.

          The Collateral Manager may waive any default (other than an Event of Default under clause
(a)(vi) above) by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, in the performance of
its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such
default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

          (b) With respect to the Collateral Manager:

               (i) any failure on the part of the Collateral Manager duly to observe or perform in any
material respect any of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Collateral Manager contained
in this Agreement, or any representation or warranty set forth by the Collateral Manager in
Section 7.01 shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect, and, in either case,
such failure or breach materially and adversely affects the value of any Collateral Obligations or
Collateral or the priority of the lien on any Collateral or the interest of the Issuer therein,
which in either case continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which
written notice of such failure or breach, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given
to the Collateral Manager by the Issuer (or such extended period of time approved by the Issuer
provided that the Collateral Manager is diligently proceeding in good faith to cure such failure or
breach); or

               (ii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in
respect of the Collateral Manager for the commencement of an involuntary case under any present or
future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, for the appointment of a conservator
or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs shall have
been entered against Collateral Manager and such decree or order shall remain in force undischarged
or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or

               (iii) the Collateral Manager shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or
similar proceedings of or relating to the Collateral Manager or relating to all or substantially
all of its property; or

               (iv) the Collateral Manager shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily
suspend payment of its obligations;

then, and in each and every case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Issuer may, by notice in writing to the Collateral Manager in addition to whatever rights the
Issuer may have at law or in equity, including injunctive relief and specific performance,
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Collateral Manager under this Agreement and in

- 68 -

 

and to the Collateral Obligations and the proceeds thereof, without the Issuer incurring any
penalty or fee of any kind whatsoever in connection therewith; provided, however,
that such termination shall be without prejudice to any rights of the Collateral Manager relating
to the reimbursement of any Servicing Advance or Servicing Expense which have been made by it under
the terms of this Agreement through and including the date of such termination. Except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be
exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any
other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right
or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. On or after the receipt by
the Collateral Manager of such written notice of termination from the Issuer, all authority and
power of the Collateral Manager under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Collateral
Obligations or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Issuer, and the Collateral Manager
agrees to cooperate with the Issuer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights
hereunder of the Collateral Manager.

          The Issuer may waive any default by the Collateral Manager in the performance of its
obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default
shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

          (c) With respect to the Backup Servicer:

               (i) any failure on the part of the Backup Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material
respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Backup Servicer contained in
this Agreement, or any representation or warranty set forth by the Backup Servicer in Section
7.01 shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect, and, in either case, such failure or
breach materially and adversely affects the value of any Collateral Obligation or Collateral or the
priority of the lien on any Collateral or the interest of the Issuer therein, which in either case
continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of
such failure or breach, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Backup
Servicer by the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) (or such extended
period of time approved by the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer)
provided that the Backup Servicer is diligently proceeding in good faith to cure such failure or
breach); or

               (ii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in
respect of the Backup Servicer for the commencement of an involuntary case under any present or
future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, for the appointment of a conservator
or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs shall have
been entered against Backup Servicer and such decree or order shall remain in force undischarged or
unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or

               (iii) the Backup Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of

- 69 -

 

assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Backup Servicer or
relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

               (iv) the Backup Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily
suspend payment of its obligations; or

then, and in each and every case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Collateral Manager may, by notice in writing to the Backup Servicer in addition to whatever rights
the Issuer may have at law or in equity, including injunctive relief and specific performance,
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Backup Servicer under this Agreement and in and
to the Collateral Obligations and the proceeds thereof, without the Collateral Manager incurring
any penalty or fee of any kind whatsoever in connection therewith; provided,
however, that such termination shall be without prejudice to any rights of the Backup
Servicer relating to the payment of any compensation due hereunder or the reimbursement of any
Servicing Advance or Servicing Expense which have been made by it under the terms of this Agreement
through and including the date of such termination. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and
each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or
omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed
to be a waiver of any Event of Default. On or after the receipt by the Backup Servicer of such
written notice of termination from Collateral Manager, all authority and power of the Backup
Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Collateral Obligations or otherwise,
shall pass to and be vested in the Issuer, and the Backup Servicer agrees to cooperate with the
Collateral Manager in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights hereunder of the
Backup Servicer.

          The Collateral Manager may waive any default by the Trustee in the performance of its
obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default
shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

     Section 7.03. Backup Servicer to Act; Appointment of Successor.

          (a) On and after the time the Servicer or the Special Servicer resigns pursuant to this
Agreement or receives a notice of termination pursuant to Sections 7.02 or 8.01,
the Backup Servicer (or, in the case of the Special Servicer, the Servicer unless the Servicer and
Special Servicer are the same entity or the Servicer also resigns, in which case it shall be the
Backup Servicer) shall immediately become the Successor in all respects to the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, in its capacity as such under this Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all of the rights and powers, and be
subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter
placed on the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, by the terms and provisions
hereof, including, without limitation, the Servicer’s obligation to make Servicing Advances;

- 70 -

 

provided that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the
Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s failure to deliver to the Backup Servicer the information or
funds required under Section 7.02 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee
hereunder. In addition to the foregoing, at any time the Servicer fails to make any Servicing
Advance, the Backup Servicer shall make such advance subject to a nonrecoverability determination.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default related to the failure of the Servicer to make any
Servicing Advance, the Backup Servicer shall be entitled to cause the Collateral Manager to
terminate the Servicer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Backup Servicer
shall be entitled, but not required, to conclusively rely upon determinations of nonrecoverability
made by the Servicer or the Collateral Manager hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Backup Servicer will have a period (not to exceed 60 days) to complete the transfer of all
servicing data and correct or manipulate such servicing data as may be required by the Backup
Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise enable the
Backup Servicer to service the Investments as successor or special servicer, as applicable.

          (b) The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of
the Servicer or the Special Servicer or for any losses incurred by the Servicer or the Special
Servicer pursuant to Section 3.04 hereunder which shall have accrued prior to the Backup
Servicer’s assuming such duties. As compensation therefor, the Backup Servicer shall be entitled
to the applicable Servicing Fee and/or Special Servicing Fee, as applicable, and all funds (other
than any Workout Fee owed pursuant to Section 5.03(b)) that the Servicer or the Special
Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the Collection Account if the Servicer or the
Special Servicer had continued to act hereunder.

          (c) Notwithstanding the above, the Backup Servicer may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or
shall, if it is unable to so act or if the CLO Noteholders entitled to a majority of the voting
rights and the Certificateholder so request in writing to the Backup Servicer or if the Backup
Servicer is not approved as a servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, by each Rating
Agency, promptly appoint any servicer or special servicer acceptable to each Rating Agency (as
evidenced by Rating Agency Confirmation), as the successor to the Servicer of all of the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment of a
successor to the Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall act in such capacity as hereinabove
provided. In the event that the Backup Servicer is unable to appoint a successor to the Servicer
hereunder as contemplated by this subsection (c), the Backup Servicer may petition a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Servicer hereunder. In connection with any such
appointment and assumption described herein, the Backup Servicer may make such arrangements for the
compensation of such successor out of payments on the Collateral Obligations or otherwise as it and
such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be
in excess of that permitted the resigning or terminated servicer or special servicer, as
applicable, hereunder unless the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. The Issuer, the Backup
Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession.

ARTICLE VIII.

TERMINATION; TRANSFER OF COLLATERAL OBLIGATIONS

     Section 8.01. Termination of Agreement.

          (a) Subject to the appointment of a Successor and the acceptance of such appointment by such
Successor pursuant to Section 6.03(c), this Agreement may be terminated by the Issuer with
respect to any or all of the Collateral Obligations, without cause, upon 60 days written notice to
the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Subject to the appointment of a Successor and
the acceptance of such appointment by such Successor pursuant to Section 6.03(c), this
Agreement may be terminated by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, with
respect to any Collateral Obligations, without cause, upon 60 days written notice to the Issuer.

          (b) Termination pursuant to this Section 8.01 or as otherwise provided herein shall be
without prejudice to any rights of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, which may have accrued through the date of termination
hereunder. Upon such termination, the Servicer shall (i) remit all funds in the related Accounts
to the Issuer or such other Person designated by the Issuer, net of accrued Servicing Fees,
Additional Servicing Compensation, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees or Liquidation Fees, and
Servicing Advances or Servicing Expenses through the termination date to which the Servicer would
be entitled to payment or reimbursement hereunder; (ii) deliver all related Servicing Files to the
Issuer or to Persons designated by the Collateral Manager; and (iii) fully cooperate with the
Collateral Manager, the Trustee and any new servicer or special servicer to effectuate an orderly
transition of Servicing or Special Servicing of the related Collateral Obligations. Upon such
termination, any Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees or Liquidation Fees,
Additional Servicing Compensation and Servicing Advances or Servicing Expenses (with interest
thereon at the Reimbursement Rate) which remain unpaid or unreimbursed after the Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, has netted out such amounts pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall be remitted by the Issuer to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, within ten (10) Business Days after the Issuer’s receipt of an itemized invoice therefor to the
extent the Servicer or the Special Servicer is terminated without cause.

     Section 8.02. Transfer of Collateral Obligations.

          (a) The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, acknowledges that any or all of
the Collateral Obligations may be sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed by the Issuer
to any third party without the consent or approval of the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be. Any such transfer shall constitute a termination of this Agreement with respect to
such Collateral Obligations, subject to the Issuer’s notice requirements under Section
8.01(a). The Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be obligated to
perform Servicing or Special Servicing, as applicable, with respect to such transferred Collateral
Obligations for any such third party unless and until the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
applicable, and such third party execute a servicing agreement having terms which are mutually
agreeable to the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and

- 72 -

 

such third party; provided, however, no such third party shall be obligated to
engage the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to perform Servicing with respect
to the transferred Collateral Obligations (or be liable for any of the obligations of Issuer
hereunder).

          (b) Until the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, receives written notice
from the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) of the sale, transfer,
assignment or conveyance of one or more Collateral Obligations, the Issuer shall be presumed to be
the owner and holder of such Collateral Obligations, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, shall continue to earn Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees or
Liquidation Fees, Additional Servicing Compensation and any other compensation hereunder with
respect to such Collateral Obligations and the Servicer shall continue to remit payments and other
collections in respect of such Collateral Obligations to the Issuer pursuant to the terms and
provisions hereof.

- 75 -

 

Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, relating to the Collateral Obligations,
to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by accountants selected by
the Issuer, and to discuss matters relating to the Collateral Obligations with the officers,
employees and accountants of the Servicer and the Special Servicer (and by this provision the
Servicer and the Special Servicer hereby authorize such accountants to discuss with such agents or

the Issuer in accordance with the Indenture shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as
the Servicer is bound. In addition, the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Issuer and the
Trustee a counterpart of this Agreement naming such assignee as Servicer. This Agreement shall not

(subject to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition), except in the case of assignment by
the Issuer to (i) an entity that is a successor to the Issuer permitted under the Indenture, in
which case such successor organization shall be bound hereunder and by the terms of said assignment
in the same manner as the Issuer is bound hereunder and thereunder or (ii) the Trustee as
contemplated by the Indenture (and, in connection therewith, the Servicer agrees to be bound by the
terms of the Indenture applicable to it). In the event of any assignment by the Issuer, the Issuer
shall use its best efforts to cause its successor to execute and deliver to the Servicer such
documents as the Servicer shall consider reasonably necessary to effect fully such assignment.

          The Collateral Manager may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, powers, duties or
obligations hereunder to the same extent that it may assign the Collateral Management Agreement or
any of its rights, powers, duties or obligations thereunder.

          Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture
between the parties hereto. For the purpose of facilitating the execution of this Agreement as
herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number
of counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic means), each of which counterparts
shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

     Section 9.07. Protection of Confidential Information.

          The Servicer and the Special Servicer shall keep confidential and shall not divulge to any
party (other than (i) the Rating Agencies with respect to any information which they are entitled
to receive hereunder or pursuant to the Indenture or (ii) an Affiliate of the Seller with respect
to any information), without the Issuer’s prior written consent, any information pertaining to the
Collateral Obligations, the Collateral or the Obligors except to the extent that (a) it is
appropriate for the Servicer or the Special Servicer to do so (i) in working with legal counsel,
auditors, other advisors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies in connection

- 76 -

 

with performing its obligations hereunder, (ii) in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices or (iii) when required by any law, regulation, ordinance, administrative proceeding,
governmental agency, court order or subpoena or (b) the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, is disseminating general statistical information relating to the assets being serviced
by the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, (including the Collateral Obligations)
so long as the Servicer or the Special Servicer does not identify the Obligors. Unless prohibited
by law, statute, rule or court order, Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall
promptly notify Issuer of any such disclosure pursuant to clause (iii) and provide the Issuer with
the opportunity to seek an order of protection or an order limiting any such required disclosure;
provided, however, the Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall
still make such disclosure absent a court order directing it to stop or terminate such disclosure.

     Section 9.08. General Interpretive Principles.

          For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context
otherwise requires:
