involuntary insolvency proceeding filed or commenced against Party B by a person other

	 	(f)	 	Assignment or Transfer. (i) Section 7 is hereby amended to read in its
entirety as follows:

“Subject to Section 6(b)(ii) and Part 5(h), and except for the assignment by way of
Security in favor of the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, neither Party A nor
Party B is permitted to assign, novate or transfer (whether by way of security or
otherwise) as a whole or in part any of its rights, obligations or interests under
this Agreement or any Transaction without the prior written consent of the other
party and satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to the proposed
assignment, novation or transfer; provided, however, that on at least five Business
Days’ prior written notice to Party B, and provided that the Rating Agency Condition
has been satisfied with respect to the proposed assignment, novation or transfer,
Party A may (i) make such a transfer of this Agreement pursuant to a consolidation
or amalgamation with, or merger with or into another entity to the resulting,
surviving or transferee entity or (ii) at its own expense, transfer all or
substantially all of its rights and obligations with respect to this Agreement to
any Person, including, without limitation, another of Party A’s offices, branches or
affiliates (any such Person, office, branch or affiliate, a “Transferee”), provided
that:

	 	(1)	 	such Transferee agrees to be bound by, inter
alia, the payment, transfer and collateral terms of this Agreement
(including any Transactions hereunder) and substantially all other
terms as the party which it replaces;
	 
	 	(2)	 	such Transferee is an Eligible Replacement;
	 
	 	(3)	 	a Termination Event or an Event of Default does
not occur under this Agreement as a result of such transfer; and
	 
	 	(4)	 	as of the date of such transfer, neither the
Transferee nor Party B will be required to withhold or deduct any
increased amount on account of any Taxes under this Agreement as a
result of such transfer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Party A may transfer this Agreement, any of
its interest or obligations in or under this Agreement, or any one or more
Transactions to any of Party A’s Affiliates, provided that (i) Party B is
furnished

30

 

with a guaranty by a guarantor that is reasonably acceptable to Party B
(such guaranty subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition), of
such transferor’s obligations and (ii) an Event of Default or a Termination
Event does not occur as a result of such transfer.

	 	(ii)	 	Upon any transfer by Party A pursuant to Section 7 of this
Agreement, Party A agrees to provide Party B with the name and address of the
Transferee so that Party B may fulfill the requirements to record the transfer
on its books and records, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
any failure by Party A to do so will render the transfer void. It shall be a
condition of such assignment however, that (A) as a result thereof, Party B
will not (x) be required to pay the Transferee under Section 2(d)(i)(4) an
amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax greater than the amount Party B would
have been obligated to pay absent such assignment or transfer, or (y) receive a
payment in an amount that is less than the amount that Party B would have
received absent such assignment or transfer, which reduction is due to a
deduction or withholding for or on account of a Tax with respect to which an
additional amount is not required to be paid under Section 2(d)(i)(4) and
(B) the Transferee will make tax representations and provide any tax forms
requested by Party B. Both Party A and the Transferee are, at the time of the
transfer, “dealers in notional principal contracts” as that term is used in
Section 1.1001-4 of the Regulations.

	 	(g)	 	Waiver of Setoff. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other
existing or future agreement, each of Party A and Party B irrevocably waives any and
all rights it may have to setoff, net, recoup or otherwise withhold or suspend or
condition payment or performance of any obligations between Party A and Party B
hereunder, or against any obligations between Party A and Party B under any other
agreements otherwise outside of this Agreement. Section 6(e) of this Agreement shall
be amended by the deletion of the following sentence: “The amount, if any, payable in
respect of an Early Termination Date and determined pursuant to this Section will be

	 	(h)	 	Party A Downgrade Provision. If a Ratings Event I (as defined below) shall
occur and be continuing with respect to Party A, then Party A shall, provided that, in
the case of (b), (c) or (d) below, the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied, either
(a)(I) in the case of a Ratings Event I that occurs with respect to S&P, within 10
Business Days, or (II) in the case of a Ratings Event I that occurs with respect to
Moody’s or Fitch, within 30 calendar days, after the occurrence of a Ratings Event I
post Eligible Collateral (as defined in the Credit Support Annex), (b) within 30
calendar days after the occurrence of a Ratings Event I, transfer, at its own expense,
Party A’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and all Confirmations to another
party, (c) within 30 calendar days after the occurrence of a Ratings Event I, provide,
at its own expense, a guaranty in respect of all Party A’s present and future
obligations under this Agreement or (d) within 30 calendar days after the occurrence of
a Ratings Event I, take such other actions as may reasonably be requested by the
Indenture Trustee (as such term is defined in the Indenture). However, upon the
occurrence of a Ratings Event II (as defined below), Party A shall then, provided that
the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied, at its own expense, transfer its rights and
obligations under this Agreement and all Confirmations within 10 Business Days of the
date of the Ratings Event II. Party A’s obligations to find a transferee or to post
Eligible Collateral under the Credit Support Annex in the case of a Ratings Event I,

31

 

or to find a transferee in the case of a Ratings Event II, shall remain in effect
only for so long as the applicable event is continuing with respect to Party A.

For the purpose of this Part 5(h), a “Ratings Event I” shall occur with respect to
Party A (a) with respect to Moody’s, if Party A’s counterparty risk or financial
program rating, as applicable, is withdrawn, suspended or reduced below “A2” by
Moody’s (a “Moody’s First Trigger Rating Event”), (b) with respect to S&P, if
Party A’s counterparty risk or financial program rating, as applicable, is
withdrawn, suspended or reduced below “A+” (an “S&P First Trigger Rating Event”),
and (c) with respect to Fitch, the Fitch Rating is reduced below “A” (a “Fitch First
Trigger Rating Event”).

For purposes of this Part 5(h) a “Ratings Event II” shall occur with respect to
Party A (a) with respect to Moody’s, if Party A’s counterparty risk or financial
program rating, as applicable, is withdrawn, suspended or reduced below “A3” by
Moody’s (a “Moody’s Second Trigger Rating Event”), (b) with respect to S&P, (I) if
Party A is a Financial Institution, Party A’s counterparty risk or financial program
rating, as applicable, is withdrawn, suspended or reduced below “BBB+” or (II) if
Party A is not a Financial Institution, Party A’s counterparty risk or financial
program rating, as applicable, is withdrawn, suspended or reduced below “A+” (an
“S&P Second Trigger Rating Event”) and (c) with respect to Fitch, the Fitch Rating
is reduced below “BBB+” (a “Fitch Second Trigger Rating Event”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the definitions of “Ratings Event I” and “Ratings
Event II” may be amended by Party A and Party B without the written consent of any
of the holders of the Notes as long as each Rating Agency confirms in writing that
such amendment will not cause the reduction, suspension or withdrawal of the then
current rating on any of the Notes.

If Party A fails to take any of the remedial actions set forth in this Part 5(h), an
Additional Termination Event shall have occurred pursuant to Part 1(n)(B)(i) of this
Schedule and Party A shall be the sole Affected Party with respect to such
Additional Termination Event.

has granted a security interest in its rights under this Agreement and has assigned
this Agreement to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, and consents

exercise of creditor’s remedies in respect of such security interest or assignment.
Party A hereby agrees that, unless notified in writing by the Indenture Trustee of
other payment instructions, any and all amounts payable by Party A to Party B under
this Agreement shall be paid to the Indenture Trustee at the account specified in the
Confirmation. Any payments in accordance with the provisions hereof (or in accordance
with any instructions from the Indenture Trustee) by Party A to Party B shall fully
release Party A from any further liability to Party B in respect to such payment.
	 
	 	(j)	 	No Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) This Agreement is made for the benefit of,
and shall be enforceable by, each of the parties hereto and (b) nothing in this
Agreement shall confer any rights upon, nor shall this Agreement be construed to create
any rights in, any person that is not a party to this Agreement.

obligations hereunder will be solely the limited recourse obligations of Party B
payable solely in accordance with the priority of payments set out in the Indenture,
and that Party A will not have any recourse to any of the directors, officers,
employees or affiliates of Party B or holders of a beneficial interest in Party B with
respect to any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, indemnities or other obligations
in connection with any transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, Party A
shall not be precluded from declaring an Event of Default or from exercising any other
right or remedy as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions
hereof, recourse in respect of any obligations of Party B to Party A hereunder or
thereunder will be limited to the Collateral and on the exhaustion thereof all claims
against Party B arising from this Agreement shall be extinguished.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement (including
any related confirmations and credit support annexes) has been countersigned by BNYM
(Delaware) not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Owner
Trustee of Party B and in no event shall BNYM (Delaware) in its individual capacity

TABLE 1A

CREDIT SUPPORT AMOUNT

DOWNGRADE BY MOODY’S FIRST TRIGGER

“Credit Support Amount” means, with respect to a Valuation Date, an amount equal to either:

(A) The greater of (1) zero and (2) the sum of (a) the MTM and (b) the lesser of (x) 15 multiplied
by DV01 and (y) 2% multiplied by the Notional Amount; or

(B) The greater of (1) zero and (2) the sum of (a) the MTM and (b) the Notional Amount multiplied
by the amount specified in Table 1B attached hereto.

Party A shall, in its sole discretion, have the option to determine the Credit Support Amount based
upon either (A) or (B) above.

“DV01” means an estimate (as determined by the Valuation Agent in good faith and in a commercially
reasonable manner with the relevant methodology customarily used by the Valuation Agent) of the
change in the Secured Party’s Exposure resulting from a one basis point change in the swap curve.

“MTM” means the Secured Party’s Exposure for that Valuation Date.
