ARTICLE III

TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

Section 3.01. Initial Beneficial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof and until the issuance of the Trust Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficial owner of the Trust.

Section 3.02. The Trust Certificates. The Trust Certificates shall be issued as physical fully registered certificates in minimum Percentage Interests of ten percent (10%), substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Delaware Trustee, upon the order of the Depositor to the Delaware Trustee. Such Trust Certificates shall collectively represent the entire undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Estate, subject to the debt represented by the Notes. Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be valid and binding obligations of the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates. Upon issuance, the Trust Certificates shall be deemed fully-paid and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, non-assessable.

Section 3.03. Issuance of the Initial Trust Certificate; Authentication of Trust Certificates. Concurrently with the initial contribution of the Depositor to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall cause a Trust Certificate, in an aggregate Percentage Interest of one hundred percent (100%), to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by its manager, president or any vice president, without further action by the Depositor. No Trust Certificate shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Trust Agreement, or shall be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto executed by the Delaware Trustee by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Trust Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Trust Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. No further Trust Certificates shall be issued except pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.05 hereof.

Section 3.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Trust Certificates. The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Delaware Trustee shall provide for the registration of the Trust Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of the Trust Certificates as herein provided. The Delaware Trustee shall be the initial Certificate Registrar.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof, the Delaware Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like Percentage Interest dated the date of authentication by the Delaware Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of a Certificateholder, Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other Trust Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Trust Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof.

Every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Delaware Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly

authorized in writing. Each Trust Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Delaware Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Trust Certificates, but the Delaware Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates.

The Trust Certificates and any beneficial interest in such Trust Certificates may not be acquired by or with the assets of (a) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), whether or not subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA (including, without limitation, foreign or government plans), (b) a “plan” described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or (c) an entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of an employee benefit plan’s or other plan’s investment in the entity (each, a “Benefit Plan Investor”). Each transferee of a Trust Certificate shall be required to represent substantially in the form of the Representation Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (i) that it is not a Benefit Plan Investor and is not acquiring such Trust Certificate with the assets of a Benefit Plan Investor; and (ii) that if such Trust Certificate is subsequently deemed to be a plan asset, it will dispose of such Trust Certificate. Each Trust Certificate shall bear a legend referring to the restrictions contained in this paragraph.

Section 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Trust Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Certificate, and (b) there shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Delaware Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Trust Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Delaware Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Delaware Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate of like Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate under this Section, the Delaware Trustee and the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 3.06. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Trust Certificate for registration of transfer, the Delaware Trustee or the Certificate Registrar and any agent of any thereof may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Delaware Trustee, the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of any thereof shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Section 3.07. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Delaware Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Depositor, within 15 days after receipt by the Delaware Trustee of a request therefore from the Depositor in writing, a list in such form as the Depositor may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders or one or more Certificateholders evidencing not less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate Percentage Interests apply in writing to the Delaware Trustee, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Trust Agreement or under the Trust Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Delaware Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Upon receipt of any such application, the Delaware Trustee will promptly notify the Depositor by providing a copy of such application and a copy of the list of Certificateholders produced in response thereto. Each Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Delaware Trustee accountable or liable by reason of disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source form which such information was derived.

Section 3.08. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Delaware Trustee shall maintain, either with itself or with an Affiliate, in Wilmington, Delaware, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Delaware Trustee in respect of the Trust Certificates and the other Basic Documents may be served. The Delaware Trustee initially designates its Corporate Trust Office as the location for such purposes. The Delaware Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor and to the holders of the Trust Certificates of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

Section 3.09. Appointment of Certificate Paying Agent. The Certificate Paying Agent shall make distributions to the Certificateholders from the amounts received from the Indenture Trustee for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Delaware Trustee. Any Certificate Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to receive such funds from the Indenture Trustee for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Delaware Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Certificate Paying Agent if the Delaware Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Certificate Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Trust Agreement in any material respect. The Certificate Paying Agent shall initially be the Delaware Trustee, and any co-paying agent chosen by the Delaware Trustee, and acceptable to the Indenture Trustee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Delaware Trustee shall be permitted to resign as Certificate Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Administrator. In the event that the Delaware Trustee shall no longer be the Certificate Paying Agent, the Delaware Trustee shall, with the written consent of the Depositor, appoint a successor to act as Certificate Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Delaware Trustee shall cause such successor Certificate Paying Agent or any additional Certificate Paying Agent appointed by the Delaware Trustee to execute and deliver to the Delaware Trustee an instrument in which such successor Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent shall agree with the Delaware Trustee that as Certificate Paying Agent, such successor

Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The Certificate Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Delaware Trustee and upon removal of a Certificate Paying Agent such Certificate Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Delaware Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04, 7.05 and 8.01 hereof shall apply to the Delaware Trustee also in its role as Certificate Paying Agent, for so long as the Delaware Trustee shall act as Certificate Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Certificate Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 3.10. Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) The Trust Certificates may not be offered or sold except to an Affiliate of the Depositor or to institutional “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1)-(3) or (7) under the Securities Act) who are U.S. Persons (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

The Trust Certificates have not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act, or any state securities law. No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Trust Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, the Delaware Trustee may require, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act, that the Certificateholder’s prospective transferee certify to the Delaware Trustee in writing the facts surrounding such disposition. Unless the Delaware Trustee requests otherwise, such certification shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. In the event that such certification of facts does not on its face establish the availability of an exemption under the Securities Act, the Delaware Trustee may require an opinion of counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which opinion of counsel shall not be an expense of the Delaware Trustee or of the Trust.

(b) Each Trust Certificate will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

“THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE, AGREES THAT THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND (1) TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 501(a)(1)-(3) or (7) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT THAT PURCHASES

FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR, OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED ON OR THROUGH AN “ESTABLISHED SECURITIES MARKET” OR A “SECONDARY MARKET (OR THE SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENT THEREOF)” WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 7704(b) OF THE CODE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO (1) AN “EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN” AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3(3) OF THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED (“ERISA”), WHETHER OR NOT SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF TITLE I OF ERISA (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, FOREIGN OR GOVERNMENT PLANS), (2) A “PLAN” DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4975(e)(1) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”), OR (3) AN ENTITY WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE “PLAN ASSETS” BY REASON OF AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN’S OR OTHER PLAN’S INVESTMENT IN THE ENTITY (EACH, A “BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR”). FURTHER, THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY TO A UNITED STATES PERSON WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 7701(a)(30) OF THE CODE.

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT DEPOSITS OR OBLIGATIONS OF OR ANY INTEREST IN GOAL CAPITAL FUNDING, LLC OR WILMINGTON TRUST COMPANY.

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE IS NOT GUARANTEED OR INSURED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.”

(c) No purported transfer of a Trust Certificate or any interest therein shall be valid if immediately thereafter there would be more than 100 beneficial owners of Trust Certificates, taking into account the provisions of Treasury Regulation § 1.7704-1(h). Any transfer which would violate the restrictions of this Section 3.10(c) shall be void ab initio.

ARTICLE IV

In addition, the Trust shall not commingle its assets with those of the Depositor and shall maintain its financial and accounting books and records separate from those of any other entity. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Trust shall pay its indebtedness, operating expenses and liabilities from its own funds, and the Trust shall not pay the indebtedness, operating expenses and liabilities of any other Person. The Trust shall maintain appropriate minutes or other records of all appropriate actions and shall maintain its office separate from the offices of the Depositor and any of its Affiliates. This Trust Agreement shall be the only agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the creation, operation and termination of the Trust. For accounting purposes, the Trust shall be treated as an entity separate and distinct from the Depositor. The pricing and other material terms of all transactions and agreements to which the Trust is a party shall be intrinsically fair to all parties thereto.

Section 4.02. Action by the Certificateholders with Respect to Certain Matters. The Delaware Trustee shall not have the power, except upon the direction of each Certificateholder, to (a) remove or replace the Eligible Lender Trustee, any Servicer, the Administrator or any other administrator or (b) except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, sell the Financed Eligible Loans after the termination of the Indenture. The Delaware Trustee shall take the actions referred to in the preceding sentence only upon written instructions signed by the Certificateholders.

The Delaware Trustee shall not be required to consent to the commencement by the Trust of any Bankruptcy Action unless it has received a written certification from each Certificateholder to the effect that the Certificateholder reasonably believes that the Trust is then insolvent.

Section 4.04. Restrictions on Certificateholders’ Power. The Certificateholders shall not direct the Delaware Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Delaware Trustee under this Trust Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.03 hereof nor shall the Delaware Trustee be permitted to follow any such direction, if given.

Section 4.05. Majority Control. Except as expressly provided herein, any action that may be taken by the Certificateholders under this Trust Agreement may be taken by the Certificateholders of Trust Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests. Except as expressly provided herein, any written notice of the Certificateholders

delivered pursuant to this Trust Agreement shall be effective if signed by Certificateholders of the Trust Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests at the time of the delivery of such notice.

ARTICLE V

APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

Section 5.01. Application of Trust Funds.

(a) On each date that the Delaware Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, receives any funds pursuant to the Indenture (a “Distribution Date”), the Delaware Trustee shall first pay to itself from such funds the Delaware Trustee’s fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts not otherwise paid or reimbursed to the Delaware Trustee pursuant to the Indenture or otherwise as to which the Delaware Trustee is entitled to be paid or reimbursed hereunder, and second distribute the remaining amount to the Certificateholders on such Distribution Date, pro rata based upon their Percentage Interests. All such funds to be distributed to the Delaware Trustee shall be wired in accordance with wiring instructions provided to the Indenture Trustee by the Delaware Trustee.

(b) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section. The Delaware Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to such Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Delaware Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust to be remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Delaware Trustee in its sole discretion may (but unless otherwise required by law shall not be obligated to) withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (b). In the event that a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Delaware Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Delaware Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

Section 5.02. Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.01(c) hereof, distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions signed by two authorized officers, if any, at least five Business Days prior to such Distribution Date, which may be standing instructions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution in respect of any Trust Certificate will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Delaware Trustee or such other location specified in writing to the Certificateholder thereof.

Section 5.03. No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest. Subject to Section 5.01 hereof, moneys received by the Delaware Trustee hereunder need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law, Section 2.12 hereof, or any Basic Document and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable for any interest thereon.

Section 5.04. Accounting and Reports to the Certificateholder, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Delaware Trustee shall deliver to the Certificateholders (and to each Person who was a Certificateholder at any time during the applicable calendar year), as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, such information as may be required to enable the Certificateholder to prepare its Federal and state income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust’s characterization for Federal income tax purposes, so long as there is only one Certificateholder, as a disregarded entity, no Federal income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (a) the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Depositor and, if different, the Certificateholder receive an opinion of counsel based on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof that the Code requires such a filing; (b) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return; or (c) there should be more than one Certificateholder. In the event that the Trust is required to file tax returns, the Delaware Trustee shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include in income currently any market discount that accrues with respect to the Financed Eligible Loans. The Delaware Trustee shall, if there is more than one Certificateholder or if it is otherwise required to file a return in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, prepare or cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Trust consistent with maintaining its characterization, for Federal income tax purposes, as set forth in Section 2.06 hereof and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable state or Federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain such characterization. The Delaware Trustee shall remit such returns to Certificateholders at least five days before such returns are due to be filed. The Certificateholders, or any other such party required by law, shall promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Delaware Trustee and such returns shall be filed by, or at the direction of, the Delaware Trustee with the appropriate tax authorities. In no event shall the Certificateholders be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust arising out of the application of any tax law, including federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith), except for any such liability, cost or expense attributable to the Certificateholder’s breach of its obligations under this Trust Agreement.

Section 5.05. Signature on Returns. The Delaware Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust, unless applicable law requires a Certificateholder to sign such documents, in which case such documents shall be signed by such Certificateholder.

ARTICLE VI

AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF DELAWARE TRUSTEE

Section 6.01. General Authority. The Delaware Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party, in each case, in such form as the Depositor shall approve as evidenced conclusively by the Delaware Trustee’s execution thereof, and, on behalf of the Trust, to direct the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver any Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture. The Delaware Trustee is also authorized and directed on behalf of the Trust (a) to originate or acquire the Financed Eligible Loans and to transfer legal title to the Financed Eligible Loans to the Eligible Lender Trustee in accordance with the Eligible Lender Trust Agreement, (b) to follow the direction of and cooperate with any Servicer or Subservicer to the extent necessary to enable such Servicer or Subservicer to fulfill its obligations under the related Servicing Agreement or Subservicing Agreement and (c) to cooperate with the Administrator and any other administrator in submitting, pursuing and collecting any claims to and with the Department with respect to any Interest Subsidy Payments and Special Allowance Payments relating to the Financed Eligible Loans.

In addition to the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee is authorized, but shall not be obligated, to take all actions required of the Trust pursuant to the Basic Documents. The Delaware Trustee is further authorized from time to time to take such action as the Administrator or any other administrator directs or instructs with respect to the Basic Documents and is directed to take such action to the extent that the Administrator or such other administrator is expressly required pursuant to the Basic Documents to cause the Delaware Trustee to act.

Section 6.02. General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Delaware Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Certificateholders, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Agreement and the other Basic Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee shall on behalf of the Trust file and prove any claim or claims that may exist on behalf of the Trust against the Depositor in connection with any claims paying procedure as part of an insolvency or a receivership proceeding involving the Depositor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Basic Documents to the extent the Administrator or any other administrator has agreed in the Administration Agreement or the related administration agreement, as applicable, to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Delaware Trustee hereunder or under any other Basic Document, and the Delaware Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator or any other administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement or related administration agreement, as applicable. The Delaware Trustee shall have no obligation to administer, service or collect the Financed Eligible Loans or to maintain, monitor or otherwise supervise the administration, servicing or collection of the Financed Eligible Loans.

Section 6.03. Action Upon Instruction.

(a) Subject to Article IV and Sections 2.12 and 7.01 hereof and in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Certificateholders may by written instruction direct the Delaware Trustee in the management of the Trust. Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Certificateholders pursuant to this Trust Agreement.

(b) The Delaware Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any other Basic Document if the Delaware Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Delaware Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any other Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

(c) Whenever the Delaware Trustee is unable to determine the appropriate course of action between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Trust Agreement or under any other Basic Document, the Delaware Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Delaware Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Certificateholders received, the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Delaware Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

(d) In the event that the Delaware Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Trust Agreement permits any determination by the Delaware Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Delaware Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Delaware Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Delaware Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Delaware Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

Section 6.04. No Duties Except as Specified in this Trust Agreement, any other Basic Document or in Instructions.

(a) The Delaware Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, service, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Delaware Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Trust Agreement, or in any document or written instruction received by the Delaware Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document against the Delaware Trustee. The Delaware Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document. The Delaware Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Estate that result from actions by, or claims against it in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust Estate.

(b) The duties and responsibilities of the Delaware Trustee shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement. No provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Delaware Trustee to expand 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, 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. The Delaware Trustee shall not be liable for its acts or omissions hereunder except as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Delaware Trustee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to the Certificateholders, the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Certificateholder for the Delaware Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Delaware Trustee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Certificateholders to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Delaware Trustee.

Section 6.05. No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Delaware Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, service, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except (a) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Delaware Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement, (b) in accordance with this Trust Agreement and (c) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Delaware Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03 hereof.

Section 6.06. Restrictions.

The Delaware Trustee shall not take any action (i) that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.03 hereof or (ii) that, to the actual

knowledge of the Delaware Trustee, would result in the Trust’s becoming taxable as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes. The Certificateholders shall not direct the Delaware Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section.

(b) The Delaware Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Certificateholders shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. The Delaware Trustee shall not be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and the Delaware Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. The Delaware Trustee may engage in or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor, or may act as depository, trustee or agent for securities or other obligations of the Depositor or its Affiliates.

The Trust agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to assume liability for, and hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Delaware Trustee, its officers, directors and employees from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted at any time against the Delaware Trustee, its officers, directors and employees in any way relating to or arising out of the Trust Estate, any of the properties included therein, the acceptance, termination or administration of the Trust Estate or the Trust or any action or inaction of the Delaware Trustee or the Trust hereunder or under the Basic Documents or any other agreement contemplated by any of the foregoing or any certificate of a Certificateholder, except only that the Trust shall not be required so to assume liability for any matters in any way relating to or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Delaware Trustee, its officers, directors or employees, and provided that the Trust and the Delaware Trustee agree that such assumption of liability for liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions, such costs expenses or disbursements of any kind shall be direct and primary and not that of a guarantor.

Neither the Certificateholders nor the Administrator shall have liabilities for the expenses and liabilities of the Trust (except as otherwise provided in this Trust Agreement with respect to the Delaware Trustee, in its individual capacity) and all such expenses and liabilities shall be payable solely from the Trust Estate.

ARTICLE IX

If within one year after the second notice the Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Delaware Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust

Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Trust Agreement. Any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such remedies and no later than five years after the first such notice shall be distributed by the Delaware Trustee to the Depositor.

SUCCESSOR DELAWARE TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL DELAWARE TRUSTEES

Section 10.01. Eligibility Requirements for Delaware Trustee. The Delaware Trustee shall at all times be a bank (a) meeting the requirements of Section 3807(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act; (b) being subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authorities; (c) having (or having a parent which has) a rating of at least investment grade by the Rating Agencies; (d) that (i) is independent and is not a stockholder or other securityholder (whether direct, indirect or beneficial), customer or supplier of the Trust or any of its Affiliates; (ii) is not a director, officer, employee, affiliate, member, manager or associate of the Trust or any of its Affiliates (other than in its capacity as the Delaware Trustee for the Trust or as trustee for affiliates of the Trust); (iii) is not related to any Person referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) above; (iv) is not a trustee, conservator or receiver for the Trust or any of its Affiliates (other than in its capacity as Delaware Trustee for the Trust); and (v) in the ordinary course of its business, acts as a trustee for other special purpose business and statutory trusts similar to the Trust and is otherwise independent from the Trust and its Affiliates (except as provided above); provided that Affiliates as used in this clause (d) does not include the interests of the Delaware Trustee and its Affiliates in each other; and (e) that is in compliance with subsection (a)(4)(i) of Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. If the Delaware Trustee shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of the Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Delaware Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Delaware Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02 hereof.

Section 10.02. Resignation or Removal of Delaware Trustee. The Delaware Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from its appointment as trustee of the Trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Administrator. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Delaware Trustee meeting the eligibility requirements of Section 10.01 hereof by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Delaware Trustee, and one copy to the successor Delaware Trustee. If no successor Delaware Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Delaware Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Delaware Trustee; provided, however, that such right to appoint or to petition for the appointment of any such successor shall in no event relieve the resigning Delaware Trustee from any obligations otherwise imposed on it under this Trust Agreement until such successor has in fact assumed such appointment.

If at any time the Delaware Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time a Bankruptcy Action with respect to the Delaware Trustee shall have occurred and be continuing, then the Administrator may remove the Delaware Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Delaware Trustee, under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Delaware Trustee, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Delaware Trustee, so removed and one copy to the successor Delaware Trustee, and shall remit payment of all fees owed to the outgoing Delaware Trustee.

Any resignation or removal of the Delaware Trustee and appointment of a successor Delaware Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Delaware Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Delaware Trustee.

The Delaware Trustee agrees to provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance to the Depositor in the event of appointment of a successor Delaware Trustee.

Section 10.03. Successor Delaware Trustee. Any successor Delaware Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its predecessor Delaware Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Trust Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Delaware Trustee shall become effective and such successor Delaware Trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Trust Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Delaware Trustee. The predecessor Delaware Trustee shall upon payment of its fees, expenses and indemnities deliver to the successor Delaware Trustee all documents, statements, moneys and properties held by it under this Trust Agreement; and the Administrator and the predecessor Delaware Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Delaware Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

No successor Delaware Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Delaware Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Delaware Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Administrator shall mail notice of the succession of such Delaware Trustee to all Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee and the Registered Owners. If the Administrator shall fail to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Delaware Trustee, the successor Delaware Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Administrator.

Any successor Delaware Trustee appointed hereunder shall promptly file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust identifying its name and principal place of business in the State of Delaware.

Section 10.04. Merger or Consolidation of Delaware Trustee. Any corporation into which the Delaware Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Delaware Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Delaware Trustee shall, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, be the successor of the Delaware Trustee hereunder; provided that such corporation shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof.

Section 10.05. Appointment of Co-Delaware Trustee or Separate Delaware Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the Administrator and the Delaware Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Delaware Trustee, meeting the eligibility requirements of Section 10.01 hereof, to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Delaware Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the Delaware Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Delaware Trustee acting alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Trust Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee pursuant to clauses (d) and (e) of Section 10.01 hereof and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof.

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

(a) all rights, powers, duties, and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Delaware Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Delaware Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Delaware Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Delaware Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties, and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, solely at the direction of the Delaware Trustee;

(b) no trustee under this Trust Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Trust Agreement; and

(c) the Administrator and the Delaware Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Trust Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Delaware Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Trust Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Delaware Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Delaware Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Delaware Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Trust Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Delaware Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

2. Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness.

Wilmington shall cooperate in good faith with any reasonable request by the Depositor for information regarding Wilmington that is necessary or required, in the reasonable, good faith determination of the Depositor, to permit the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB.

3. Additional Representations and Warranties of Wilmington.

(a) Wilmington shall be deemed to represent and warrant to the Depositor as of the date hereof and on each date on which information is provided to the Depositor under this Annex that, except as disclosed in writing to the Depositor prior to such date: (i) it is not aware and has not received notice that any default, early amortization or other performance triggering event has occurred as to any other Securitization due to any default of Wilmington; (ii) there are no aspects of its financial condition that could have a material adverse effect on the performance by it of its trustee obligations under the Trust Agreement or any other Securitization Transaction as to which it is the trustee; (iii) there are no material legal or governmental proceedings pending (or known to be contemplated) against it that would be material to Noteholders; (iv) there are no relationships or transactions (as described in Item 1119(b) of Regulation AB) relating to Wilmington with respect to the Depositor or any sponsor, issuing entity, servicer, trustee, originator, significant obligor, enhancement or support provider or other material transaction party (as each of such terms are used in Regulation AB) relating to the Securitization contemplated by the Trust Agreement, as identified by name by the Depositor to Wilmington in writing, including without limitation the Initial Transaction Parties (each, a “Transaction Party”), that are outside the ordinary course of business or on terms other than would be obtained in an
