• Covenants of the Depositor The Depositor covenants and agrees with the Underwriters that: (a) The Depositor will not file any amendment to the Registration Statement (other than by reason of Rule 429 under the 1933 Act) or any amendment or supplement to the Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus relating to or affecting the Registered Certificates, unless the Depositor has furnished a copy to you for your review a reasonable time period prior to filing, and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Depositor shall cause the Prospectus to be transmitted to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424 under the 1933 Act or shall cause the Prospectus to be filed with the Commission pursuant to said Rule 424. The Depositor promptly will advise you or counsel for the Underwriters (i) when the Prospectus shall have been filed or transmitted to the Commission for filing pursuant to Rule 424, (ii) when any amendment to the Registration Statement shall have become effective, (iii) of any request by the Commission to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or for any additional information in respect of the offering contemplated hereby, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto which shall have become effective on or prior to the Closing Date or preventing or suspending the use of the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v) of the receipt by the Depositor of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registered Certificates for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose. The Depositor will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or suspension and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof. (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. The Underwriters shall be responsible for paying all other costs and expenses incurred by them and not set forth in the preceding sentence in connection with the purchase and sale of the Registered Certificates. (f) To the extent that the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the Underwriters are to receive any notices or reports, or have any other rights thereunder, the Depositor shall enforce the rights of the Underwriters under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and shall not consent to any amendment of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement that would adversely affect such rights of 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). (i) The Depositor will, pursuant to reasonable procedures developed in good faith, retain copies of each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is not filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 433 under the 1933 Act.
