Any endorsement of a Book-Entry Note to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons, as shall be specified therein or in the Issuer Order of authentication delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Indenture.

Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at any time Authorized Officers of the Owner Trustee or the Administrator shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding 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 such Notes.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.08 hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall, upon Issuer Order, authenticate and deliver the Notes for original issue in the aggregate principal amounts with respect to each Class as specified below:

Class		Class Principal Balance

The aggregate principal amounts of such Classes of Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed such respective amounts.

The Notes that are authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer on the Closing Date shall be dated the Closing Date. All other Notes that are authenticated after the Closing Date as a result of transfer or exchange or for any other purpose under the Indenture shall be dated the date of their authentication.

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 in the forms of Notes at Exhibit A) executed by the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, 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 2.03. Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

The Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the “Note 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 Indenture Trustee initially shall be the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. Upon any resignation of any Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note Registrar.

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

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.02, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Noteholder shall be entitled to obtain from the Indenture Trustee, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount. At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Noteholder shall be entitled to obtain from the Indenture Trustee, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

Except for a transfer made to SFM or to an affiliate of SFM, no transfer of a Note in the form of a Definitive Note shall be made unless the Note Registrar shall have received a representation from the transferee of such Note, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Note Registrar and the Depositor (such requirement is satisfied only by the Note Registrar’s receipt of a transfer affidavit from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto), to the effect that such transferee (i) is not acquiring such Note for, or with the assets of, an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement that is subject to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any substantially similar law (“Similar Law”), or any entity deemed to hold the plan assets of the foregoing (collectively, “Benefit Plans”), or (ii) its acquisition and holding of such Note for, or with the assets of, a Benefit Plan will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code which is not covered under Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 95-60, PTCE 96-23 or some other applicable exemption, and will not result in a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law.

In the case of a Note that is a Book-Entry Note, for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii) of the first sentence of the preceding paragraph, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Note Registrar by the transferee’s acceptance of such Note that is also a Book-Entry Note (or the acceptance by a Note Holder of the beneficial interest in such Note).

To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Note Registrar shall have any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any Note that is in fact not permitted by this Section 2.03 or for making any payments due on such Note to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Note Registrar shall be required to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions with respect to any Note in the form of a Book-Entry Note, and neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Note Registrar shall have any liability for transfers of a Book-Entry Note or any interest therein made in violation of the restrictions on transfer described in the Prospectus Supplement and this Agreement.

All Notes issued 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.

Any Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Exchange Act.

No service charge shall be made to a Noteholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.04 or Section 9.06 not involving any transfer.

The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not be required to make and the Note Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes for a period of 15 days preceding the Payment Date for any payment with respect to such Note.

Section 2.04. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.

If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven days shall be due and payable, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

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

Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

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

Section 2.05. Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 2.06. Payment of Principal and Interest.

(a)

Each Class of Notes shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate as set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such interest shall be payable on each Payment Date, subject to Section 3.01. All interest payments on each Class of Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders of such Class entitled thereto. Any installment of interest or principal payable on any Note shall be paid on the applicable Payment Date to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date or, upon written request made to the Indenture Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by the Holder of a Note by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified in the request and at the expense of such Noteholder, except that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.11, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee, except for the final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Payment Date or on the applicable Maturity Date for such Class of Notes (and except for the Redemption Price for any Note being redeemed pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof), which shall be payable as provided below. The funds represented by any such checks returned undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.03.

The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each Payment Date as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement and in the forms of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of a Class of Notes, shall be due and payable, if not previously paid, on the earlier of (i) the applicable Maturity Date, (ii) the applicable Redemption Date following an Optional Redemption pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or (iii) the date on which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if the Indenture Trustee or the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders shall have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02 hereof.

On each Payment Date, all principal payments on each Class of Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders of such Class entitled thereto based on their respective Note Principal Balances immediately prior to such Payment Date. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Payment Date on which the Issuer expects that the final installment of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such final Payment Date and shall specify that such final installment will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. Notices in connection with redemptions of Notes shall be mailed to Noteholders as provided in Section 10.02 hereof.

Section 2.07. Cancellation.

All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to it; provided, that such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee.

All payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment Account, pursuant to Article 4 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent.

On or before the Business Day preceding each Payment Date or Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Payment Account an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the Notes, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless the Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

Any Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee shall be appointed by Issuer Order with written notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee.

hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust 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;

(ii)

give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has Actual Knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

(iii)

at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

(v)

comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith; provided, however, that with respect to withholding and reporting requirements applicable to original issue discount (if any) on the Notes, the Issuer shall have first provided the calculated amounts pertaining thereto to the Indenture Trustee.

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

Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds or abandoned property, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose right to or interest in moneys due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder).

Section 3.04. Existence.

Section 3.06. Performance of Obligations.

(a)

The Issuer will not take any action and will use its best efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person from any of such Person’s material covenants or obligations under any instrument or agreement included in the Collateral or that would result in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as expressly provided in this Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or such other instrument or agreement.

(b)

The Issuer may contract with or otherwise obtain the assistance of other Persons (including, without limitation, the Administrator or the Depositor under the Administration Agreement) to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer.

(i)

institute Proceedings in its own name (as Indenture Trustee) and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

sell the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein in a commercially reasonable manner, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law;

the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and

(e)

no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders.

It is 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 or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.

Section 5.06. Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or after the Maturity Date (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.07. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders 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 Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.08. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture 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 5.09. Delay or Omission Not a Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

Section 5.10. Control by Noteholders.

The Majority Controlling Class Noteholders shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

(a)

such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

(b)

subject to the express terms of Section 5.04, any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Collateral shall be by Holders of Notes representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class Notes; and

(c)

the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.

Notwithstanding the rights of the Noteholders set forth in this Section, subject to Section 6.01, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability or might materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by or pursuant to this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request, order or direction.

Section 5.11. Waiver of Past Defaults.

Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02, the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a Default (a) in the payment of interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be modified or amended, in each case without the consent of the Holder of each Note, as applicable. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes 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.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 5.12. Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s 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 Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture.

Section 5.13. 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, that may affect the covenants or the performance of 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 Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 5.14. Action on Notes.

The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.04(b).

Section 5.15. Optional Preservation of the Collateral.

If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Collateral. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion (at the expense of the Issuer) of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral for such purpose.

Section 5.16. Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.

(a)

Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at the Issuer’s expense, the Issuer shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller, the Depositor and the Master Servicer, as applicable, of each of their obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sales Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or Proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller, the Depositor or the Master Servicer of each of their obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Sales Agreement.

(b)

If an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Actual Knowledge has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing) of the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Depositor or the Master Servicer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Seller under or in connection with the Sales Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller, the Depositor or the Master Servicer of each of their obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension, or waiver under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Sales Agreement, and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended.

ARTICLE VI.
THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

Section 6.01. Duties of Indenture Trustee.

(a)

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(b)

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i)

the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and

(ii)

in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; however, the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture.

(c)

The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i)

this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section;

(ii)

the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iii)

the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with this Agreement or upon a direction received by it pursuant to Sections 3.03, 5.02, 5.10 and 5.16 or any other direction of the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders relating to the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising or omitting to exercise any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture;

(iv)

the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it;

(v)

money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee shall be segregated from other funds except to the extent permitted by law or the terms of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement;

(vi)

no provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur 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 to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it;

(vii)

every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA;

(viii)

the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or Event of Default (except an Event of Default described in Section 5.01(a)(i)) unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have Actual Knowledge thereof; in the absence of such Actual Knowledge, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no default or Event of Default; and

(ix)

anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(d)

The Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Collateral, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Indenture Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement, and (ii) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Operative Agreement to which it is a party; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any Operative Agreement against the Indenture Trustee.

The Indenture 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 Collateral that result from actions by, or claims against itself that are not related to the administration of the Collateral.

(e)

Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA.

Section 6.02. Rights of Indenture Trustee.

(a)

The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting in good faith upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such document.

(b)

Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel.

(c)

The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed by the Indenture Trustee with due care.

(d)

The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that such action or omission by the Indenture Trustee does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

(e)

The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel or any Opinion of Counsel with respect to legal matters relating to or arising out of the Operative Agreements shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability with respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The Issuer shall be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of any such counsel.

(f)

The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Majority Controlling Class Noteholders; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Indenture Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Indenture Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such cost, expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The expense of every such investigation shall be paid by the Issuer or, if paid by the Indenture Trustee, shall be repaid by the Issuer upon demand.

(g)

The right of the Indenture Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such act.

(h)

The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of the powers granted hereunder.

(i)

The Indenture Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Indenture Trustee’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments.

In order to comply with its duties under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, the Indenture Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation from the other parties hereto, including, but not limited to, such party’s name, address, and other identifying information.

Section 6.03. Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee.

The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity other than as Indenture Trustee may, and in its capacity as Indenture Trustee may not, become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.

Section 6.04. Indenture Trustee’s Disclaimer.

The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, any other Operative Agreement or the Notes or the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, or responsible for any statement of the Issuer in the Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

Section 6.05. Notice of Default.

If a Default occurs and is continuing and if a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Actual Knowledge, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder, with a copy to the Seller, notice of the Default within 30 days after it acquires knowledge of such Default.

Section 6.06. Reports by Indenture Trustee to Holders.

Upon written request by a Noteholder, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Noteholder such information as may be required to enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

Section 6.07. Compensation and Indemnity.

As compensation for its services hereunder and under the Operative Agreements (including in its capacity as Paying Agent, Securities Intermediary, Note Registrar, Certificate Registrar, Certificate Paying Agent, Administrator and Custodian), the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive on each Payment Date a fee equal to the Indenture Trustee Fee payable from the Master Servicing Fee. Reimbursement for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by the Indenture Trustee, including costs of collection, shall be payable by the Issuer. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances, if any, of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts.

The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Indenture Trustee (including in its capacity as Paying Agent, Securities Intermediary, Certificate Paying Agent, Administrator and Custodian) and its officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties under the Operative Agreements. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Master Servicer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer or the Master Servicer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The obligation of the Issuer to pay and reimburse the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that payment of any amounts by the Issuer pursuant to this Section and pursuant to any other indemnification obligation of the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee (in any of its capacities) or the Owner Trustee shall not exceed $100,000 during any calendar year.

The payment and indemnification obligations of the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee (including in its capacities as Paying Agent, Certificate Paying Agent, Administrator, Custodian, Note Registrar, Certificate Registrar and Securities Intermediary) pursuant to this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee or discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses in connection with the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.01(v) or (vi) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

Section 6.08. Replacement of Indenture Trustee.

No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section. The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the Notes may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

(a)

the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

(b)

the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

(c)

a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or

(d)

the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the “resigning or removed Indenture Trustee”), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee that satisfies the eligibility requirements of Section 6.11.

The resigning or removed Indenture Trustee agrees to cooperate with any successor Indenture Trustee in effecting the termination of the resigning or removed Indenture Trustee’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly provide such successor Indenture Trustee all documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Indenture Trustee’s functions hereunder. Any successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

The resigning or removed Indenture Trustee shall ▇▇▇▇▇ to the successor Indenture Trustee the Collateral, and the Seller, the Issuer and the resigning or removed Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Indenture Trustee all rights, powers, duties and obligations under this Indenture.

The successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the resigning or removed Indenture Trustee and the Issuer. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The resigning Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee.

If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the resigning or removed Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of the Majority Controlling Class Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

Section 6.09. Successor Indenture Trustee by ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

Section 6.10. Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.

(a)

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee at the expense of the Issuer shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to the Collateral, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under this Section 6.10 hereof.

(b)

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

(i)

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

(ii)

no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

(iii)

the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

(c)

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article VI. 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, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

(d)

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture Trustee 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 Indenture 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 of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section 6.11. Eligibility.

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

Section 9.01. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders.

(a)

Without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies and with the prior written consent of the Issuer (which requires the consent of the holder of the Trust Certificate), the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

(i)

to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property;

(ii)

to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable provisions hereof, of another person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and in the Notes contained;

(iii)

to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer;

(iv)

to (A) cure any ambiguity, (B) correct or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or in any supplemental indenture or to conform the provisions hereof to those of any Offering Document, (C) obtain a rating for a Class of Notes from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or (D) make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to clause (D) of this subparagraph (iv) shall adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder not consenting thereto as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (or, in lieu thereof, written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such supplemental indenture will not cause it to reduce or withdraw its then-current ratings on any Class of Notes) furnished to the Indenture Trustee at the Issuer’s expense;

(v)

to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Notes and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI; or

(vi)

to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA (as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Indenture Trustee at the Issuer’s expense).

provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall be entered into unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel stating that entering into such supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to be subject to federal income tax as long as an entity that qualifies as a REIT under the Code holds directly, or indirectly through one or more Qualified REIT Subsidiaries, a 100% Percentage Interest in the Trust Certificate, and the Indenture Trustee receives an officer’s certificate from the Holder of the Trust Certificate to the effect that such Holder either qualifies as a REIT or a Qualified REIT Subsidiary under the Code and owns a 100% Percentage Interest in the Trust Certificate.

The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained.

(b)

The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may also, without the consent of any Noteholder but with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders under this Indenture; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by either (i) an Opinion of Counsel or (ii) satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder.

Section 9.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders.

The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may, with the prior consent of the Rating Agencies, the written consent of the holder of the Trust Certificate and with the consent of Holders of not less than 50% of the Outstanding Amount of Notes, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby:

(a)

change the date of payment of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Collateral to payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

(b)

reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture;

(c)

modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the definition of the term “Outstanding”;

(d)

reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes required to direct the Indenture Trustee to direct the Issuer to sell or liquidate the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.04;

(e)

modify any provision of this Section except to increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional provisions of this Indenture or the Operative Agreements cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby;

(f)

modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due on any Note on any Payment Date or to affect the rights of the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provision for the mandatory redemption of the Notes contained herein; or

(g)

permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Collateral or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture.

The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting the supplemental indenture) regarding whether or not any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder.

In connection with requesting the consent of the Noteholders and the holder of the Trust Certificate pursuant to this Section, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates and to the Owner Trustee (which shall in turn mail to the holder of the Trust Certificate) a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, 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. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indenture.

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

Section 9.05. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

Every amendment of this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 9.06. Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture 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 Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

Section 9.07. Amendments to Trust Agreement.

The Indenture Trustee shall, upon Issuer Order, consent to any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement or an amendment to or waiver of any provision of any other document relating to the Trust Agreement, such consent to be given without the necessity of obtaining the consent of the Holders of any Notes upon satisfaction of the requirements under Section 10.01 of the Trust Agreement.

Nothing in this Section shall be construed to require that any Person obtain the consent of the Indenture Trustee to any amendment or waiver or any provision of any document where the making of such amendment or the giving of such waiver without obtaining the consent of the Indenture Trustee is not prohibited by this Indenture or by the terms of the document that is the subject of the proposed amendment or waiver.

Each Class of Notes to be redeemed shall, following notice of such redemption as required by Section 10.02 hereof on the applicable Redemption Date become due and payable at the Redemption Price and (unless the purchaser of the Trust Estate shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) no interest shall accrue thereon for any period after the date to which accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

Section 11.02. Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture 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.

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 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 such officer’s certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Seller, the Depositor or the Issuer stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Seller, the Depositor or the Issuer unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, 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, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuer’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI.

Section 11.03. Acts of Noteholders.

(a)

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

(b)

The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.

(c)

The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

(d)

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder of every Note 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 Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

Section 11.04. Notices, etc. to Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and Rating Agencies.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

(a)

the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or

(b)

the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Saxon Asset Securities Trust 2005-2, in care of Wilmington Trust Company, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Square North, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: Corporate Trust Administrator (SAST 2005-2), or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer or the Administrator. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested by overnight courier or facsimile, if to Moody’s: ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc., ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: Residential Mortgage Surveillance, if to S&P: Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The ▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ Companies, Inc., ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: Residential Mortgage Surveillance, and if, to Fitch: Fitch Ratings, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: Residential Mortgage Surveillance Group.

Section 11.05. Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and delivered by first-class mail, postage prepaid, overnight courier or facsimile to each Noteholder affected by such event, at his address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of 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 Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

Section 11.06. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties on any person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture, whether or not physically contained herein.

Section 11.07. 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 11.08. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

Section 11.09. 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 11.10. Benefits of Indenture and Consent of Noteholders.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Noteholders, and any other party secured hereunder, and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Collateral, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.
