(b) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Registered Certificates is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, any event occurs as a result of which the Preliminary Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) or the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus to comply with the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, the Depositor shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission, at the expense of the Depositor, subject to paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or an amendment that will effect such compliance and, if such amendment or supplement is required to be contained in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, the Depositor shall use its best efforts to cause such amendment to the Registration Statement to be made effective as soon as possible.

(d) The Depositor shall furnish such information, execute such instruments and take such action, if any, as may be required to qualify the Registered Certificates for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as you may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Registered Certificates; provided that the Depositor shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now qualified or to take any action that would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now subject to such service of process. (e) The Depositor shall pay, or cause to be paid, all costs and expenses in connection with the transactions herein contemplated, including, but not limited to, the fees and disbursements of its counsel; the costs and expenses of printing (or otherwise reproducing) and delivering the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Registered Certificates; the fees and disbursements of accountants for the Depositor; the reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses in connection with the qualification or exemption of the Registered Certificates under state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, including filing fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection therewith, in connection with the preparation of any “Blue Sky” survey and in connection with any determination of the eligibility of the Registered Certificates for investment by institutional investors and the preparation of any legal investment survey; the expenses of printing any such “Blue Sky” survey and legal investment survey; the cost and expenses in connection with the preparation, printing and filing of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto), the Preliminary Prospectus, the Term Sheet, Computational Material and the Prospectus, the preparation and printing of this Agreement and the delivery to the Underwriters of such copies of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Term Sheet and the Prospectus as you may reasonably request; the fees of the Rating Agencies that we hire to rate the Registered Certificates; and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Underwriters.

(g) The Depositor shall, as to itself, and as to the Trust Fund, shall cause the Trustee (or the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee) to be required pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to, satisfy and comply with all reporting requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. (h) The Depositor shall take all reasonable action necessary to enable the Rating Agencies to provide their respective credit ratings of the Registered Certificates as described in Section 1(a)(xix).
