Series Trustees In connection with the establishment of one or more Series or Classes, the Trustees establishing such Series or Class may appoint, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, separate Trustees with respect to such Series or Classes (the “Series Trustees”). Series Trustees may, but are not required to, serve as Trustees of the Trust of any other Series or Class of the Trust. To the extent provided by the Trustees in the appointment of Series Trustees, the Series Trustees may have, to the exclusion of any other Trustee of the Trust, all the powers and authorities of Trustees hereunder with respect to such Series or Class, but may have no power or authority with respect to any other Series or Class (unless the Trustees permit such Series Trustees to create new Classes within such Series). Any provision of this Trust Instrument relating to election of Trustees by Shareholders shall entitle only the Shareholders of a Series or Class for which Series Trustees have been appointed to vote with respect to the election of such Trustees and the Shareholders of any other Series or Class shall not be entitled to participate in such vote. If Series Trustees are appointed, the Trustees initially appointing such Series Trustees may, without the approval of any Outstanding Shares, amend either this Trust Instrument or the By-laws to provide for the respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Series Trustees in circumstances where an action of the Trustees or Series Trustees affects all Series and Classes of the Trust or two or more Series or Classes represented by different Trustees.

Replacement of Indenture Trustee The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by providing written notice of its resignation to the Issuer. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, may remove the Indenture Trustee if:
(a) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;
(b) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;
(c) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or
(d) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes legally or practically incapable of fulfilling its duties hereunder. 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 Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08. A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, to the Servicer and to the Administrator. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor Indenture Trustee. If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within thirty (30) days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Administrator or the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the Controlling Class 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 at any time thereafter petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.
Successor Trustees Trustee may resign by the giving of notice of such resignation in writing or verbally to Beneficiary. If Trustee shall die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust, or if, for any reason, Beneficiary shall prefer to appoint a substitute trustee or multiple substitute trustees, or successive substitute trustees or successive multiple substitute trustees, to act instead of the aforenamed Trustee, Beneficiary shall have full power to appoint a substitute trustee (or, if preferred, multiple substitute trustees) in succession who shall succeed (and if multiple substitute trustees are appointed, each of such multiple substitute trustees shall succeed) to all the estates, rights, powers and duties of the aforenamed Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any authorized agent of Beneficiary, and if such Beneficiary be a corporation and such appointment be executed in its behalf by any officer of such corporation, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the board of directors or any superior officer of the corporation. Grantor hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the aforenamed Trustee, or Trustee’s successor or successors in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof. If multiple substitute trustees are appointed, each of such multiple substitute trustees shall be empowered and authorized to act alone without the necessity of the joinder of the other multiple substitute trustees, whenever any action or undertaking of such substitute trustees is requested or required under or pursuant to this Deed of Trust or applicable law.
Indenture Trustee Consent The consent of the Indenture Trustee will be required for any amendment to this Agreement pursuant to Sections 7.1(b) or (c) that has a material adverse effect on the rights, duties, obligations, immunities or indemnities of the Indenture Trustee.
