(i) be entered into with a Swap Counterparty and governed by a Swap;

(ii) have a schedule of periodic payment periods which terminate as of January 27, 2014 (which date represents the date on which an Optional Repurchase could first occur with respect to the Notes based on an assumed 0% constant prepayment rate per annum with respect to the Loans);

(iii) on the Closing Date, have a non-amortizing notional amount equal to $213,974,167 (which represents the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Offered Notes

- 27 -

as of the Closing Date minus the Outstanding Loan Balance of Initial Loans that are Floating Rate Loans as of the Closing Date);

(iv) be maintained so that the Aggregate Notional Amount of any Swap Transactions hedging the Fixed Rate Loans for any current or future calculation period will not be greater than the sum of (1) the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Fixed Rate Loans for the corresponding Collection Period plus (2) during the Replenishment Period, the amount of Principal Collections received with respect to Fixed Rate Loans on deposit in the Principal Collection Account, by more than the Fixed Rate Permitted Excess Amount;

(v) each Swap will provide that any scheduled periodic payments required to be made by the Issuer and the Swap Counterparty on the same date with respect to a Swap Transaction will be netted so that only the net difference between such payments will be paid, with any net periodic payments to be paid into the Note Distribution Account (if payable by the Swap Counterparty) or from the Note Distribution Account (if payable by the Issuer) and distributed pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

(b) As additional security hereunder, the Issuer hereby assigns to the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparty, all right, title and interest of the Issuer in each Swap, each Swap Transaction, and all present and future amounts payable by a Swap Counterparty to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the respective Swap and Swap Transaction(s) with that Swap Counterparty (“Swap Collateral”), and Grants a security interest to the Indenture Trustee, as agent for the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparty, in the Swap Collateral. The Issuer acknowledges that, as a result of that assignment, the Issuer may not, without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, exercise any rights under any Swap or Swap Transaction, except for the Issuer’s right under any Swap to enter into Swap Transactions in order to meet the Issuer’s obligations under Section 3.27 hereof or except as otherwise contemplated in this Section 3.27 and in subsection 5.17(h) of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. Nothing herein shall have the effect of releasing the Issuer from any of its obligations under any Swap or any Swap Transaction, nor be construed as requiring the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder or any Swap Counterparty for the performance by the Issuer of any such obligations.

(c) The Issuer hereby agrees to maintain a register of outstanding Swaps. Such register shall contain the name and address of each Swap Counterparty. The Issuer shall provide such names and addresses to the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and each Rating Agency on a current basis.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall, upon written notice from the Issuer, establish a single, segregated trust account which shall be designated as a Swap Counterparty Collateral Account, which shall be held in trust in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the related Swap Counterparty and over which the Trustee shall have the exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal. The Indenture Trustee shall deposit all

- 28 -

collateral received from the related Swap Counterparty under the related Swap in such Swap Counterparty Collateral Account. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, such Swap Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in trust by the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the related Swap Counterparty. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, such Swap Counterparty Collateral Account shall be upon Issuer Order (i) for application to obligations of the related Swap Counterparty to the Issuer under the related Swap if such Swap becomes subject to early termination or (ii) to return collateral to such Swap Counterparty when and as required by such Swap. The Indenture Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon such Issuer Order. Each Swap Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in accordance with the terms of the related Swap.

Section 3.28 Grant of Substitute Loans.

In consideration of the delivery on each Subsequent Transfer Date pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 2.04 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer grants to the Indenture Trustee a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in the Loans transferred on such Subsequent Transfer Date and simultaneously with the transfer of the Substitute Loans to the extent of the availability thereof, the Issuer will cause the related Loan File to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

Section 3.29 Determination of Note Rate.

Until the Outstanding Principal Balance of each Class of Offered Notes has been reduced to zero, the Indenture Trustee shall determine LIBOR, the Class A Note Interest Rate, the Class B Note Interest Rate and the Class C Note Interest Rate for such Classes of Notes for each Interest Accrual Period as provided in Section 7.06 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and shall inform the Issuer, the Trust Depositor and the Servicer at their respective email addresses given to the Indenture Trustee in writing thereof. Any such determination by the Indenture Trustee of the amount of interest distributable on the Offered Notes shall be binding on the parties absent manifest error.

ARTICLE IV

THE NOTES; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

Section 4.01 The Notes.

Certain of Offered Notes shall be registered initially in the name of Cede & Co. Beneficial Owners will hold interests in Offered Notes through the book-entry facilities of the Depository in minimum denominations of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. Subject to subsections 4.02(b), (p), (q) and (r), certain of the Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes, Class D Notes and the Class E Note shall be issued in such names and denominations as may be set forth on an Issuer Order delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

- 29 -

The Notes shall, on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee, authenticated by the Note Registrar and delivered by the Indenture Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.

Section 4.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

(a) The Indenture Trustee shall cause to be kept a Note 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 and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The Indenture Trustee shall be “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Note Register shall contain the name, remittance instructions, Class of each Noteholder, as well as the Series and the number in the Series.

(b) Each Class of Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $500,000 initial principal amount and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, except that one Note of each Class may be in a different denomination so that the sum of the denominations of all outstanding Notes of such Class shall equal the applicable Initial Class A Principal Balance, the Initial Class B Principal Balance, the Initial Class C Principal Balance, the Initial Class D Principal Balance and the Initial Class E Principal Balance, respectively. On the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee will execute and authenticate (i) one or more Global Notes and/or (ii) Individual Notes all in an aggregate principal amount that shall equal the applicable Initial Class A Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class B Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class C Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class D Principal Balance and the applicable Initial Class E Principal Balance.

The Global Notes (i) shall be delivered by the Issuer to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depository’s instructions, shall be delivered by the Issuer on behalf of the Depository to and deposited with the DTC Custodian, and in each case shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. and (ii) with respect to the Rule 144A Global Notes, shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

“Unless this Note is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to the Note Registrar or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any Note issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.”

The Global Notes may be deposited with such other Depository as the Issuer may from time to time designate, and shall bear such legend as may be appropriate; provided, that, such successor Depository maintains a book-entry system that qualifies to be treated as “registered form” under Section 163(0(3) of the Code.

- 30 -

The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee are hereby authorized to execute and deliver a Letter of Representations with the Depository relating to the Notes.

(c) With respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) and the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to Direct or Indirect Participants or Beneficial Owners for which the Depository holds Notes from time to time as a Depository. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, (as such and in its individual capacity), and the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (a) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, Cede & Co., or any Direct or Indirect Participant with respect to the ownership interest in the Notes, (b) the delivery to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note, (c) the payment to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register, of any amount with respect to any distribution of principal or interest on the Notes or (d) the making of book-entry transfers among Participants of the Depository with respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of the nominee of the Depository. No Person other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register shall receive a Note evidencing such Note.

(d) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Indenture Trustee of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with respect to the payment of distributions by the mailing of checks or drafts to the registered Holders of Notes appearing as registered Owners in the Note Register on a Record Date, the name “Cede & Co.” in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of the Depository.

(e) In the event that (i) the Depository or the Servicer advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect to the Global Notes and the Servicer is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Servicer at its sole option elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository, the Global Notes shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co. (or a successor nominee) as nominee of the Depository. At that time, the Servicer may determine that the Global Notes shall be registered in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a global book-entry system, as may be acceptable to the Servicer, or such depository’s agent or designee but, if the Servicer does not select such alternative global book-entry system, then upon surrender to the Note Registrar of the Global Notes by the Depository, accompanied by the registration instructions from the Depository for registration, the Indenture Trustee shall at the Servicer’s expense authenticate Individual Notes. Neither the Servicer nor the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Individual Notes, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Servicer, any Paying Agent and the Issuer shall recognize the Holders of the Individual Notes as Noteholders hereunder.

- 31 -

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, so long as any Global Notes are registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, all distributions of principal and interest on such Global Notes and all notices with respect to such Global Notes shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the Letter of Representations.

(g) Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office of the Note Registrar and, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer shall execute in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Note of the same Percentage Interest and dated the date of authentication by the Indenture Trustee. The Note Registrar shall notify the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of any such transfer.

At the option of the Noteholders, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes in authorized denominations of a like Class, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by wiring instructions, if applicable, in the form of Exhibit C.

(h) No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but prior to transfer the Note Registrar may require payment by the transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.

All Notes surrendered for payment, transfer and exchange, redemption or repurchase shall be marked canceled by the Note Registrar and retained for one year and destroyed thereafter.

(i) By acceptance of an Individual Note, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Note set forth in the Securities Legend and agrees that it will transfer such a Note only as provided herein. In addition to the provisions of subsection 4.02(n) the following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of an Individual Note to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of an Individual Note:

(i) The Note Registrar shall register the transfer of an Individual Note if the requested transfer is being made to a transferee who has provided the Note Registrar with a Rule 144A Certification.

(ii) The Note Registrar shall register the transfer of any Individual Note if (x) the transferor has advised the Note Registrar in writing that the Note is being transferred to an Institutional Accredited Investor who is a Qualified Purchaser; and (y) prior to the transfer the transferee furnishes to the Note Registrar a Transferee Letter; provided, that, if based upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the delivery of (x) and (y) above

- 32 -

are not sufficient to confirm that the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable laws, the Note Registrar may as a condition of the registration of any such transfer require the transferor to furnish other certifications, legal opinions or other information prior to registering the transfer of an Individual Note.

(j) Subject to subsection 4.02(n), so long as a Global Note remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository, transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Note, or transfers by holders of Individual Notes to transferees that take delivery in the form of beneficial interests in the Global Note, may be made only in accordance with this subsection 4.02(j) and in accordance with the rules of the Depository.

(i) Rule 144A Global Note to Regulation S Global Note During the Distribution Compliance Period.

Upon receipt by the Note Registrar at its Corporate Trust Office of (1) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a Depository Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to another specified Depository Participant’s account a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of the Depository Participant (and the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may be) to be credited with, and the account of the Depository Participant to be debited for, such beneficial interest, and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit E hereto given by the Beneficial Owner that is transferring such interest, the Note Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note by the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred and, concurrently with such reduction, to increase the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note by the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions (who shall be a Depository Participant acting for or on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, or both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note having a denomination equal to the amount by which the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note was reduced upon such transfer.

- 33 -

(ii) Rule 144A Global Note to Regulation S Global Note After the Distribution Compliance Period. If, after the Distribution Compliance Period, a Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, such holder may, in addition to complying with all Applicable Procedures, transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this subsection 4.02(j)(ii). Upon receipt by the Note Registrar at its Corporate Trust Office of (1) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a Depository Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to another specified Depository Participant’s account a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of the Depository Participant (and, in the case of a transfer pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may be) to be credited with, and the account of the Depository Participant to be debited for, such beneficial interest, and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit F hereto given by the Beneficial Owner that is transferring such interest, the Note Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note by the aggregate denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred and, concurrently with such reduction, to increase the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note by the aggregate denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions (who shall be a Depository Participant acting for or on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, or both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note having a denomination equal to the amount by which the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note was reduced upon such transfer.

- 35 -

(k) Any and all transfers from a Global Note to a transferee wishing to take delivery in the form of an Individual Note will require the transferee to take delivery subject to the restrictions on the transfer of such Individual Note described on the face of such Note, and such transferee agrees that it will transfer such Individual Note only as provided therein and herein. No such transfer shall be made and the Note Registrar shall not register any such transfer unless such transfer is made in accordance with this subsection 4.02(k).

(i) Transfers of a beneficial interest in a Global Note to an Institutional Accredited Investor who is a Qualified Purchaser will require delivery of such Note to the transferee in the form of an Individual Note and the Note Registrar shall register such transfer only if prior to the transfer such transferee furnishes to the Note Registrar (1) a Transferee Letter to the effect that the transfer is being made to an Institutional Accredited Investor who is a Qualified Purchaser in accordance with an applicable exemption under the Securities Act, and (2) an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Indenture Trustee that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act.

It is the intent of the foregoing that under no circumstances may an Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note.

(m) An exchange of a beneficial interest in a Global Note for an Individual Note or Notes, an exchange of an Individual Note or Notes for a beneficial interest in a Global Note and an exchange of an Individual Note or Notes for another Individual Note or Notes (in each case, whether or not such exchange is made in anticipation of subsequent transfer, and in the case of the Global Notes, so long as the Global Notes remain outstanding and are held by or on behalf of the Depository), may be made only in accordance with this Section 4.02 and in accordance with the rules of the Depository and Applicable Procedures.

(n) (i) Upon acceptance for exchange or transfer of an Individual Note for a beneficial interest in the Global Note as provided herein, the Note Registrar shall cancel such Individual Note and shall (or shall request the Depository to) endorse on the schedule affixed to the applicable Global Note (or on a continuation of such schedule affixed to the Global Note and made a part thereof) an appropriate notation evidencing the date of such exchange or transfer and an increase in the Note balance of the Global Note equal to the Note balance of such Individual Note exchanged or transferred therefor.

appropriate notation evidencing the date of such exchange or transfer and a decrease in the Note balance of the Global Note equal to the Note balance of such Individual Note issued in exchange therefor or upon transfer thereof.

(o) The Securities Legend shall be placed on any Individual Note issued in exchange for or upon transfer of another Individual Note or of a beneficial interest in the Global Note.

(p) Subject to the restrictions on transfer and exchange set forth in this Section 4.02, the holder of any Individual Note may transfer or exchange the same in whole or in part (in an initial Note balance equal to the minimum authorized denomination of $500,000 or any integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof) by surrendering such Note at the Corporate Trust Office, or at the office of any transfer agent, together with an executed instrument of assignment and transfer satisfactory in form and substance to the Note Registrar in the case of transfer and a written request for exchange in the case of exchange. The holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository, cause the Depository (or its nominee) to notify the Note Registrar in writing of a request for transfer or exchange of such beneficial interest for an Individual Note or Notes. Following a proper request for transfer or exchange, the Note Registrar shall, within five (5) Business Days of such request made at such Corporate Trust Office, cause the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and the Note Registrar to deliver at such Corporate Trust Office, to the transferee (in the case of transfer) or holder (in the case of exchange) or send by first class mail at the risk of the transferee (in the case of transfer) or holder (in the case of exchange) to such address as the transferee or holder, as applicable, may request, an Individual Note or Notes, as the case may require, for a like aggregate Percentage Interest and in such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested. The presentation for transfer or exchange of any Individual Note shall not be valid unless made at the Corporate Trust Office by the registered holder in person, or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact.

(q) No transfer of any Note shall be made unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. No transfer of any Note shall be made if such transfer would require the Issuer to register as an “investment company” under the 1940 Act. In the event of any such transfer, unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the Securities Act or Regulation S under the Securities Act, (i) the Indenture Trustee may require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, or the Servicer and (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a Transferee Letter certifying to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which Transferee Letter shall not be an expense of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Servicer. The holder of a Note desiring to effect such transfer shall, and by accepting a Note and the benefits of this Indenture does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Servicer against any liability that

- 38 -

may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws. None of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Trust Depositor intends or is obligated to register or qualify any Note under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

(r) By acquiring a Class A Note, a Class B Note or a Class C Note, each purchaser and transferee shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not acquiring such Note with the plan assets of an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Code, an entity whose underlying assets are deemed to include “plan assets” of any of the foregoing by reason of an employee benefit plan’s or plan’s investment in such entity, or a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) or a church plan (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA for which no election has been made under section 410(d) of the Code) that is subject to any federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to the provisions of section 406 of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code; or (b) the acquisition and holding of such Note will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406(a) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or, in the case of a governmental plan or a church plan, any substantially similar federal, state or local law).

(s) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, on the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate in the name of, and deliver to, the Trust Depositor, the Class D Notes and the Class E Note, each in the form of a single Individual Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Initial Class D Principal Balance and the Initial Class E Principal Balance, respectively. The Holder of the Class D Notes, the Class E Note and the Trust Certificate shall initially be the Trust Depositor. No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of the Class E Note (a “Transfer”) shall be made unless (1) simultaneously with the Transfer a proportionate amount of Trust Certificates are Transferred so that the ratio of the Percentage Interest of the Trust Certificates so Transferred to all Trust Certificates and the ratio of the Percentage Interest of the Class E Notes so Transferred to all Class E Notes are equal, (2) the Transfers of the Trust Certificates and Class E Notes referred to herein are made to the same Person and (3) the Percentage Interest of the Trust Certificates and Class E Notes, respectively, so transferred is no less than ten (10%) percent.

(t) Any Class D Note or Class E Note may only be owned by United States Persons (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code).

(u) No Class D Note or Class E Note may be owned by any natural Person.

(v) No Class D Note or Class E Note may be acquired directly or indirectly, for, on behalf of or with the assets of an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Code, or an entity (including an insurance company general account) whose underlying assets are deemed to include “plan assets” of any of the foregoing by reason of an employee benefit plan’s or plan’s investment in such entity. No transfer of a Class D Note or a Class E Note representing an Individual Note shall be made unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received a certification from the transferee of such Individual Note, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory

- 39 -

to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to the effect that such transferee is acquiring a Class D Note or a Class E Note in conformance with the requirements of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, in the event any purported transfer of any Class D Note or Class E Note representing an Individual Note is made without delivery of the certification referred to above, such certification shall be deemed to have been made by the Transferee by its acceptance of such Individual Note.

(w) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class E Note shall be made if immediately after such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition the total number of Class E Noteholders would exceed ten; provided, however, that this subsection 4.02(w) shall not apply if the Issuer shall have received an opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that (1) such transfer will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership (within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code) or (2) the Class E Note will be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes.

Section 4.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.

Subject to UCC § 8-405, 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 protected 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; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven (7) 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 protected 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 protected 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 4.03, 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 4.03 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual

- 40 -

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 4.03 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 4.04 Payment of Principal and Interest; Defaulted Interest.

(a) The Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during such Interest Accrual Period and a year assumed to consist of 360 days. Any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note which is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note 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, except that, unless Global Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 4.02, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Depository (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such Person and except for the final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Payment Date or on the Legal Final Maturity Date (and except for the Redemption Date Amount for any Notes called for redemption pursuant to Section 10.01 and the Repurchase Amount for any Notes called for repurchase pursuant to Section 10.02) 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.

(b) The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each Payment Date as provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable, if not previously paid, on the date on which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if the Indenture Trustee with the consent of the Required Holders have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02. All principal payments among the Classes of Notes shall be made in the order and priorities set forth herein and in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, and all principal payments on the Notes of the same Class shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders of such Class. 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 10.03.

Section 4.05 Tax Treatment.

The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and local income, business and franchise tax purposes, (i) the Notes (other than the Class D Notes and the Class E Note) will qualify as indebtedness secured by the Indenture Collateral and (ii) the Issuer shall not be treated as an association, taxable mortgage pool or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder (other than the Class D Noteholder and the Class E Noteholder), by the acceptance of any such Note (and each beneficial owner of a Note, by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Note), agree to treat such Notes for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer. Each Holder of such Note (other than the Class D Noteholder and the Class E Noteholder) agrees that it will cause any beneficial owner of such Note acquiring an interest in a Note through it to comply with this Indenture as to treatment of indebtedness under applicable law, as described in this Section 4.05.

The provisions of this Indenture shall be construed in furtherance of the foregoing intended tax treatment.

It is the intent of the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Class D Noteholder, the Class E Noteholder and the Certificateholder that in the event (i) the Trust Certificate, the Class D Notes and the Class E Note are owned by one (1) Holder, for federal income tax purposes the Trust will be treated as a division of such Holder or be disregarded as an entity separate from such Holder, and (ii) in the event that the Trust Certificate and/or the Class E Note are owned by more than one (1) Holder, the Trust will be treated as described in Section 2.11 of the Trust Agreement.

(i) have become due and payable, or

(ii) will become due and payable at the Legal Final Maturity Date within one year, or

(iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Indenture Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer; or

At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V; provided, the Required Holders, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and each Swap Counterparty, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

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

(i) all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes, all scheduled payments then due and payable under each Swap and all other amounts that would then be due hereunder, upon the Notes and under each Swap if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and

(ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and

(B) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13.

No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto. No such rescission or annulment shall affect a Swap or any Swap Transaction that has been terminated in accordance with the terms thereof. Any Swap in effect at the time of any declaration of acceleration of maturity shall remain in effect until such time as such declaration of acceleration of maturity can no longer be rescinded or annulled under the terms of this Indenture.

Section 5.03 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee; Authority of Indenture Trustee.

(a) The Issuer covenants that if the Notes are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Noteholders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal, and, to the extent payment at such rate of

- 46 -

interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the applicable Note Interest Rate and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

(b) The Indenture Trustee, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall have full right, power and authority to take, or defer from taking, any and all acts with respect to the administration, maintenance or disposition of the Indenture Collateral.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may in its discretion (except as provided in subsection 5.03(d), and shall, at the direction of the Required Holders), proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders, by such appropriate Proceedings as shall be deemed most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if the Issuer fails to perform its obligations under Section 10.01 or Section 10.02 when and as due, the Indenture Trustee may in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of the Required Holders, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee, or the Required Holders, as the case may be, shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for specific performance of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law; provided, that, the Indenture Trustee shall only be entitled to take any such actions to the extent such actions (i) are taken only to enforce the Issuer’s obligations to redeem the principal amount of Notes, and (ii) are taken only against the Indenture Collateral, any investments therein and any proceeds thereof.

(e) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Indenture Collateral, Proceedings under any Insolvency Law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or

(iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee, as administrative expenses associated with any such proceeding, and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

(f) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

- 48 -

disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Noteholders.

(h) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (including any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all of the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such proceedings.

Section 5.04 Remedies.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee (subject to Section 5.05) may, and shall if so directed by the Required Holders in writing:

(i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as or on behalf of a 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, and all amounts payable under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes moneys adjudged due;

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

(iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and any other remedy available to the Indenture Trustee and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders under this Indenture or the Notes; and

(iv) sell the Indenture Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Indenture Collateral following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described in subsection 5.01(a) or (b),unless (A) the Holders of 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes consent thereto (and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Swap Counterparty upon a termination of its Swap, each Swap Counterparty consents thereto), (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest and all amounts payable to each Swap Counterparty upon termination of the Swaps or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Indenture Collateral will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee provides prior written notice to each Rating Agency and obtains the consent of the Holders of 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes (and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Swap Counterparty upon a termination of its Swap, the consent of each Swap Counterparty). In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses

- 49 -

(B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and conclusively rely upon an opinion 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 Indenture Collateral for such purpose and shall in no event be liable for relying on such opinions; provided, however, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in subsection 5.01(j), caused solely from an event described in such subparagraph occurring with respect to the Trust Depositor or the Issuer, the Indenture Collateral will be liquidated by the Indenture Trustee, at the expense of the Trust, and the Trust will be terminated ninety (90) days after the date of such Insolvency Event, unless, before the end of such ninety (90) day period, the relevant Trustee shall have received written instructions from the Required Holders, to the effect that such Required Holders disapprove of the liquidation of such Indenture Collateral and termination of such Trust.

Section 5.05 Optional Preservation of the Indenture Collateral.

Following an Event of Default and if such Event of Default has not been rescinded and annulled, and except as otherwise provided above, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Indenture Collateral; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall at all times maintain possession of the Indenture Collateral, consisting of “instruments” (within the meaning of the UCC), not constituting part of chattel paper (if any), evidencing any Loan that had previously been delivered to the Indenture Trustee as part of the Indenture Collateral, unless and until such “instruments” are delivered in connection with a realization with respect to the Indenture Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes and amounts due under the Swaps, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Indenture Collateral. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Indenture Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and conclusively rely upon an opinion 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 Indenture Collateral for such purpose.

(a) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, it shall pay out the money or property as set forth in Section 7.05 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

(iv) the Indenture Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceeding; and

(v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such sixty (60) day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, voting together as a single class.

It is understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders 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 Noteholders or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.

In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each representing less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall act at the direction of the group of Noteholders representing the greater percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

Section 5.08 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest.

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

- 51 -

Section 5.09 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 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 5.10 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 5.11 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.

(i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with any other provision of this Indenture;

(ii) subject to the terms of Section 5.04, any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Indenture Collateral shall be by the Noteholders representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes;

(iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Indenture Collateral pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee by Noteholders representing less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes to sell or liquidate the Indenture Collateral shall be of no force and effect; and

- 52 -

(iv) 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 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 and adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults.

In the case of any waiver of an Event of Default, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. Upon any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist and 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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. No such waiver shall affect a Swap or any Swap Transaction that has been terminated in accordance with the terms thereof.

Section 5.14 Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof and each Swap Counterparty by accepting the benefits hereof 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 5.14 shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (ii) 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 (iii) 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 (or, in the case of redemption or repurchase, on or after the Redemption Date or Repurchase Date, as applicable).

Section 5.15 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 advantages 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.

- 53 -

Section 5.16 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.

Section 6.05 Notice of Defaults or Events of Default.

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder

- 58 -

and Swap Counterparty notice of the Default or Event of Default within ninety (90) days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default with respect to the payment of principal of or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the redemption or repurchase of such Notes), the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties.

Section 6.06 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Noteholders.

The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such information as may be required to enable such Holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. In addition, upon the Issuer’s or a Holder’s written request, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly furnish information reasonably requested by the Issuer or such Holder that is reasonably available to the Indenture Trustee to enable the Issuer or such Holder to perform its federal and state income tax reporting obligations.

Section 6.07 Compensation and Indemnity.

The Issuer shall pay or shall cause the Administrator or Servicer to pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services as Indenture Trustee and as Paying Agent (if the Indenture Trustee serves as such) to the extent such compensation is not otherwise paid to the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall or shall cause the Administrator or the Servicer to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer shall indemnify or shall cause the Administrator or the Servicer to indemnify the Indenture Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this Indenture and the performance of its duties hereunder, under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and any other document or transaction contemplated herewith or therewith or as a Paying Agent for the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Administrator shall not relieve the Issuer or the Administrator of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend or shall cause the Administrator or the Servicer to defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay or shall cause the Administrator or the Servicer to pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor the Administrator or the Servicer need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

The Issuer’s payment and indemnification obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the earlier removal or resignation of the Indenture Trustee. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a

- 59 -

Default specified in subsections 5.01(j) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under applicable Insolvency Law.

Section 6.08 Replacement of Indenture Trustee.

The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer and the Servicer. The Issuer may remove the Indenture Trustee if:

(i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

(ii) a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the Indenture Trustee in an involuntary case or proceeding under federal or state banking or bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, shall have entered a decree or order granting relief or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, conservator, sequestrator (or similar official) for the Indenture Trustee or for any substantial part of the Indenture Trustee’s property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the Indenture Trustee’s affairs, provided any such decree or order shall have continued unstayed and in effect for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days;

(iii) the Indenture Trustee commences a voluntary case under any federal or state banking or bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, conservator, sequestrator or other similar official for the Indenture Trustee or for any substantial part of the Indenture Trustee’s property, or makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors or fails generally to pay its debts as such debts become due or takes any corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

(iv) 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 retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.

A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. No successor Indenture Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 6.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such Person shall be eligible under Section 6.11. The Issuer or the successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties (at their addresses shown in the register kept by the Issuer, and provided to the Indenture Trustee). The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer, at the expense of the Issuer, all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee and shall

- 60 -

execute and deliver such instruments and other documents as may reasonably be required to more fully and certainly vest and confirm in the successor Indenture Trustee all such rights, duties, powers and obligations.

If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the 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.

Any resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08, the retiring Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to payment or reimbursement of such amounts as such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 6.07.

Section 6.09 Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger.

If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of 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. The Indenture Trustee shall provide each Rating Agency and the Swap Counterparties prompt notice of any such transaction.

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 Indenture 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 provision of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any pad of the Indenture Collateral may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator acting jointly

- 61 -

shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustees, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, or separate Indenture Trustee or separate Indenture Trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties, such title to the Indenture Collateral, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Indenture Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-Indenture Trustee or separate Indenture Trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility of a successor Indenture Trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders or Swap Counterparties of the appointment of any co-Indenture Trustee or separate Indenture Trustee shall be required under Section 6.08. If the Indenture Trustee is incompetent or unqualified in any jurisdiction to perform as required by this Indenture, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon such separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee who shall exercise and perform such rights, powers, duties and obligations solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee.

(b) Every separate Indenture Trustee and co-Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture 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 Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;

(ii) no Indenture Trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other Indenture Trustee hereunder; and

(iii) the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture 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 Indenture Trustees and co-Indenture Trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article. Each separate Indenture Trustee and co-Indenture Trustee, upon its acceptance of the

- 62 -

trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of co-appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all of 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 and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

(d) Any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture 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 Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the appointment of any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee shall not relieve the Indenture Trustee of its obligations and duties under this Indenture.

Section 6.11 Eligibility.

(b) If (i) the Issuer or the Servicer shall have failed to give written investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Trust Accounts to the Indenture Trustee by 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuer or the Servicer and Indenture Trustee), on any Business Day or (ii) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.02 or (iii) if such Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default, but amounts collected or receivable from the Indenture Collateral are being applied in accordance with Section 5.06 as if there had not been such a declaration, then the Indenture Trustee shall invest funds in the Trust Accounts in investments meeting the requirements of clause (vi) of the definition of Eligible Investment in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and shall promptly notify the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall have no

- 70 -

responsibility for losses on investments made in accordance with this subsection 8.03(c), and all income and losses shall be for the account of the related Trust Account.

Section 8.04 Release of Indenture Collateral.

(a) Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Section 6.07, the Indenture Trustee may, and when required by the provisions of this Indenture or the Transfer and Servicing Agreement shall, execute instruments to release property from the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the same, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Article shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.

(b) The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as (i) there are no Notes Outstanding, (ii) all Swap Transactions then outstanding under any Swaps then in effect shall be terminated and all amounts payable to the Swap Counterparties, including Swap Breakage Costs, shall be paid in full, and (iii) all sums due the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.07 have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Indenture Collateral that secured the Notes from the lien of this Indenture without representation, warranty or recourse and release to the Issuer or any other Person entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Trust Accounts. The Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture pursuant to this subsection 8.04(b) only upon receipt of an Issuer Request accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and (if required by the TIA as so stated in the Opinion of Counsel) Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA §§314(c) and 314(d)(1) and in each case meeting the applicable requirements of Section 11.01.

Section 8.05 Opinion of Counsel.

The Indenture Trustee shall receive at least seven (7) days prior written notice (or such lesser number of days as the Indenture Trustee may agree) when requested by the Issuer to take any action pursuant to subsection 8.04(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Indenture Trustee shall also require, as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not materially and adversely impair the security for the Notes or the Swaps or the rights of the Noteholders or the Swap Counterparties in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required hereunder (i) to release the lien of this Indenture on any Collateral related to a Loan that has been repaid in full (including a repayment in full at less than the full principal amount, if permitted under subsection 5.05(b)), (ii) to release the lien of this Indenture on any Collateral the interest of the Trust in which is created by a subordinated lien in connection with the foreclosure of a senior lien that is a Permitted Lien or (iii) to release the lien of this Indenture on any Collateral the interest of the Trust in which is created by a senior lien (not subject to a subordination

- 71 -

agreement) if the value of such Collateral being released is less than 25% of the total value of the Collateral as of the date such Collateral became subject to the lien of this Indenture; provided, further, that, such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Indenture Collateral. Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action.

The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may, with prior written notice to each Rating Agency, and with the consent of the Required Holders and each Swap Counterparty, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, 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, no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note and each Swap Counterparty:

Neither the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee nor any of their respective affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Note Owner for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Transfer and Servicing Agreement or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Note Owners that so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders, as herein defined, 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.

Promptly after the execution by the parties hereto of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Swap Counterparties and to the Noteholders to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

- 74 -

In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications 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, that all conditions precedent to the execution of such supplemental indenture have been met and that such actions shall not adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders in any material respect.

Section 9.05 [Reserved].

Section 9.06 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article 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 or the Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and 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 Special Supplemental Agreement.

If any party to this Indenture is unable to sign any amendment or a supplement due to its dissolution, winding up or comparable circumstances, then the consent of the Required Holders shall be sufficient to amend this Agreement without such party’s consent.

(a) At any time during the Call Period, the Holder of the Class E Note may direct the Issuer to repurchase the Notes in whole, but not in part, on any Payment Date after the Holder of the Class E Note provides notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of its election to cause the Issuer to repurchase the Notes. The Holder of the Class E Note may exercise its option to cause the Issuer to repurchase Notes pursuant to said Section 10.01 by directing the Issuer to deposit in full in the Note Distribution Account an amount equal to the Repurchase Price which, with respect to the Class D Notes, shall be payable in such consideration as the Holders of the Class D Notes shall deem acceptable.

(i) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the Issuer shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the named matters, if the fair value to the Issuer of the property to be so deposited and of all other such property made the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then current fiscal year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any property so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuer as set forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the then Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

(ii) Other than with respect to any release described in clause (A) or (B) of subsection 11.01(b)(v), whenever any property or securities are to be released from the lien created by this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90) days of such release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the security created by this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

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 Person 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 his 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 Servicer, the Originator or the Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Originator 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 (2) or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, 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

- 80 -

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 conclusively 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 the 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.

(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.

All notices, demands, certificates, requests and communications hereunder (“notices”) shall be in writing and shall be effective (a) upon receipt when sent through the U.S. mails, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, with such receipt to be effective the date of delivery indicated on the return receipt, or (b) one (1) Business Day after delivery to an overnight courier, or (c) on the date personally delivered to, with respect to the Indenture Trustee, a Responsible Officer or an Authorized Officer of any other party to which sent, or (d) on the date transmitted by legible telecopier transmission with a confirmation of receipt, in all cases addressed to the recipient at the address specified in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement for such recipient.

Each party hereto may, by notice given in accordance herewith to each of the other parties hereto, designate any further or different address to which subsequent notices shall be sent.

- 81 -

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 mailed, first-class, postage prepaid 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.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of Default.

Section 11.06 Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions.

Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement, with the consent of any Paying Agent, including the Indenture Trustee if acting as Paying Agent, and the consent of the Indenture Trustee with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer will furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee will cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.

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.

- 82 -

Section 11.08 Successors and Assigns.

To the extent that, notwithstanding the agreements and provisions contained in the preceding sentences of this Section 11.20, any Noteholder or Swap Counterparty either (i) asserts an interest in or claim to, or benefit from, Other Assets, whether asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor, or (ii) is deemed to have any such interest, claim or benefit in or from Other Assets, whether by operation of law, legal process, pursuant to applicable provisions of any applicable insolvency laws or otherwise (including without limitation by virtue of Section 1111(b) of the federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor provision having similar effect under the Bankruptcy Code), and whether deemed asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor, then each Noteholder by accepting a Note and each Swap Counterparty by accepting the benefits of this Indenture further acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim or benefit in or from Other Assets is and shall be expressly subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full of all obligations and liabilities of the Trust Depositor which, under the terms of the relevant documents relating to the securitization of such Other Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the benefits of, or otherwise secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or security interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to a priority of distribution or application under applicable law, including any applicable insolvency laws, and whether asserted against the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the Trust Depositor), including, without limitation, the payment of post-petition interest on such other obligations and liabilities. This subordination agreement shall be deemed a subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Class A Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture. All terms used in this Class A Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or amended, shall have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture, as so supplemented or amended.

As described above, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Class A Note shall be due and payable on the earliest of the Legal Final Maturity Date, the Redemption Date, if any, pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Indenture or the Repurchase Date, if any, pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture.

All principal payments on the Class A Notes shall be made pro rata to the Class A Noteholders entitled thereto.

Each Class A Noteholder or Class A Note Owner, by acceptance of a Class A Note or, in the case of a Class A Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Class A Note covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture on the Class A Notes or under any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity or any of their Affiliates.

On each Payment Date, commencing January 25, 2005, the Indenture Trustee or Paying Agent shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Class A Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest of the Class A Notes evidenced by this Class A Note and the amount required to be distributed to Holders of Class A Notes on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 8.02 of the Indenture.

A-1-5
