Payments of principal of, interest on or amounts with respect to a redemption of the Notes will be made by U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in The City of New York or, for holders of at least $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States, provided that a written request from such Holder to such effect is received by the Fiscal Agent or the Paying Agent not less than 15 days (or such fewer days as the Fiscal Agent may accept at its discretion) prior to the scheduled payment date of the payment to be made. Unless such designation is revoked, any such designation made by such Person with respect to such Note will remain in effect with respect to any future payments with respect to such Note payable to such Person. MBIA will pay any reasonable administrative costs imposed in connection with making any such payments by wire transfer. (b) MBIA will use its best efforts to obtain the approval of the Superintendent for the payment by MBIA of interest on and principal of, and Redemption Price or Make Whole Redemption Price with respect to, the Notes on each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date and any Redemption Date and, in the event any such approval has not been obtained for such payment at or prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date, as the case may be, to continue to use its best efforts to obtain such approval promptly thereafter.

(b) MBIA will use its best efforts to obtain the approval of the Superintendent for the payment by MBIA of interest on and principal of, and Redemption Price or Make Whole Redemption Price with respect to, the Notes on each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date and any Redemption Date and, in the event any such approval has not been obtained for such payment at or prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date, as the case may be, to continue to use its best efforts to obtain such approval promptly thereafter.

Not less than 45 days prior to each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date (excluding any such Maturity Date which arises as a result of the obtaining of an order or the granting of approval for the rehabilitation, liquidation, conservation or dissolution of MBIA) and not less than 30 days prior to any Redemption Date, MBIA will seek the approval of the Superintendent to make each payment of interest on and principal of, and the Redemption Price or Make Whole Redemption Price with respect to, the Notes, respectively.

(c) MBIA will pay interest on each Note (i) subject to the Payment Restrictions, on each Interest Payment Date (if the Interest Payment Date is a Business Day, otherwise on the first Business Day after any such Interest Payment Date) to the Holder of such Note as of the close of business on the Record Date for the applicable Interest Payment Date or (ii) if the Payment Restrictions are not satisfied on any such Interest Payment Date, on the applicable Scheduled Interest Payment Date to the Holder of such Note as of the close of business on the Record Date for the applicable Scheduled Interest Payment Date or, in each case, on the subsequent special record date, if any, determined pursuant to Section 3.02. MBIA will make payment of the principal of the Notes on the Scheduled Maturity Date against presentation and surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust office of the Paying Agent, or at such other location of a Paying Agent as MBIA shall have otherwise instructed the Fiscal Agent in writing. (d) Interest will continue to accrue at the Stated Rate on any unpaid principal. Interest payments with respect to which the scheduled payment dates have been extended are cumulative; however, during such period, interest will not accrue on interest with respect to which the scheduled payment dates have been extended. (e) In the event any Interest Payment Date on or prior to the January 15, 2013 Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the interest payment will be made on the following Business Day and no interest will accrue as a result of such postponement. The amount of interest payable at the fixed rate will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In the event any Interest Payment Date after January 15, 2013 (other than an Interest Payment Date falling on the Maturity Date or a Redemption Date) is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day and interest will continue to accrue during such postponement. The amount of interest payable at a floating rate will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant period. In the event that the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the payment of principal, interest, Redemption Price or Make Whole Redemption Price due on that day will be made on the following Business Day and no interest shall accrue as a result of such postponement. The interest payable on any Interest Payment Date will be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the original issuance date of the Notes if no interest has been paid or duly provided for with respect to the Notes) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date. (f) MBIA shall require each Paying Agent other than the Fiscal Agent to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Noteholders or the Fiscal Agent all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest on, or Redemption Price or Make Whole Redemption Price with respect to, the Notes, and will notify the Fiscal Agent in writing of any failure by MBIA to make any such payment. Until any such failure has been remedied, the Fiscal Agent may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Fiscal Agent. In the event MBIA wishes to terminate the Fiscal Agent’s appointment as Paying Agent, MBIA shall provide ten days’ prior written notice to the Fiscal Agent that the Fiscal Agent’s appointment to act as Paying Agent is so terminated and the Fiscal Agent may rely on such notice. MBIA at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by the Paying Agent to the Fiscal Agent. Upon doing so the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money so paid. (h) Any money paid by MBIA to the Fiscal Agent for any payment with respect to the Notes permitted under the Payment Restrictions in this Agreement and the Notes which remains unclaimed for two years will be repaid to MBIA, and all liability of the Fiscal Agent and of any other Paying Agents will thereupon cease. Thereafter the Holder will look only to MBIA for payments thereof as an unsecured creditor and MBIA will not be liable to pay any taxes or other duties in connection with such payments.
