Authorization and Consent The Government has given its authorization and consent for all use and manufacture of any invention described in and covered by a patent of the United States in the performance of this Agreement or any part hereof or any amendment hereto or any subcontract hereunder (including any lower-tier subcontract) which is expected to exceed $100,000.
Waiver and Consent (a) This Subordinated Note may be amended or waived pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions set forth herein. Any such consent or waiver given by the Noteholder shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all subsequent holders of this Subordinated Note and of any Subordinated Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Subordinated Note. No delay or omission of the Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Any insured depository institution that shall be a Noteholder or that otherwise shall have any beneficial ownership interest in this Subordinated Note shall, by its acceptance of such Subordinated Note (or beneficial interest therein), be deemed to have waived any right of offset with respect to the indebtedness evidenced thereby.
(b) No waiver or amendment of any term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement in the Subordinated Notes shall be effective except with the consent of the Noteholders holding more than fifty percent (50%) in aggregate principal amount (excluding any Subordinated Notes held by the Company or any of its Affiliates) of the Subordinated Notes at the time outstanding; provided, however, that without the consent of each Noteholder of an affected Subordinated Note, no such amendment or waiver may: (i) reduce the principal amount of any Subordinated Note; (ii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Subordinated Note; (iii) extend the maturity of any Subordinated Note; (iv) change the currency in which payment of the obligations of the Company under the Subordinated Notes are to be made; (v) lower the percentage of aggregate principal amount of outstanding Subordinated Notes required to approve any amendment of the Subordinated Notes; (vi) make any changes to Section 6 (Events of Default; Acceleration), Section 7 (Failure to Make Payments), Section 8 (Affirmative Covenants of the Company), Section 9 (Negative Covenants of the Company), Section 16 (Priority), or Section 18 (Waiver and Consent) of the Subordinated Notes that adversely affects the rights of any Noteholder; or (vii) disproportionately and adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may amend or supplement the Subordinated Notes without the consent of the Noteholders to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or to provide for uncertificated Subordinated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Subordinated Notes, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Noteholder of any of the Subordinated Notes. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising, by any Noteholder of the Subordinated Notes, of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right or remedy provided by law, except as restricted hereby. The rights and remedies provided in this Subordinated Note are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or remedy provided by law or equity. No notice or demand on the Company in any case shall, in itself, entitle the Company to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Noteholders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. No consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by the Noteholders to or of any breach or default by the Company in the performance of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance of the same or any other obligations of the Company hereunder. Failure on the part of the Noteholders to complain of any acts or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by the Noteholders of their rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies on account of any breach or default by the Company.

Limited Consent The Subject Borrower has informed the Banks and the Agent that it may issue on or after the date hereof, on behalf of the Subject Series, one or more Revolving Demand Notes in favor of Bank of America, N.A. or other loan agreement and note(s) that may succeed such note(s) in an aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000,000 (collectively, the “Bank of America Instrument(s)”) and to incur Debt in the form of loans thereunder (the issuance of the Bank of America Instruments and the incurrence of such Debt thereunder, the “Proposed Loans”). The Subject Borrower has requested that the Agents and the Banks consent to the Proposed Loans, and the Agent and the Banks do hereby consent to the Proposed Loans; provided that:
(a) the Proposed Loans shall be unsecured by any assets of the Subject Series and shall be in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of $3,000,000,000 at any time outstanding to the Subject Borrower and all other funds or other entities entitled to borrow thereunder, (b) the Proposed Loans shall be outstanding with respect to the Subject Borrower solely for the period from the date upon which the Subject Borrower shall notify the Operations Agent of any initial borrowing by such Subject Borrower under the Bank of America Instrument through December 17, 2008 (each, a “Specified Period”), (c) the Subject Borrower shall not have any outstanding Loans under the Credit Agreement during the Specified Period with respect to such Subject Borrower and such Subject Series; and (d) during the Specified Period for the Subject Borrower and such Subject Series and thereafter until the repayment in full of all Debt and other obligations owing by such Subject Borrower under the Bank of America Instruments, the Banks shall have no obligation or Commitment to make any Loans to such Subject Borrower on behalf of such Subject Series under the Credit Agreement. The above consent shall not be construed, however, as a waiver of any other provisions of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or to permit any Borrower to take any other action which is prohibited by the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except as expressly stated herein, neither the execution of this Amendment nor the failure of any Agent or any Bank to exercise any right or remedy constitutes a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy under the Credit Agreement. Except as specifically waived hereby, each of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect. Nothing contained herein shall in any way prejudice, impair or effect any rights or remedies of any Agent or any Bank under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Authorizations and Consents No authorization, consent, approval, exemption, franchise, permit or license of, or filing with, any governmental or public authority or any third party is required to authorize, or is otherwise required in connection with the valid execution and delivery by the Borrower of this Agreement, the Notes, and the Security Instruments, or any other instrument contemplated hereby, the repayment by the Borrower of advances against the Notes and interest and fees provided in the Notes and this Agreement, or the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under any of the foregoing.
Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail In of EEA Financial Institutions. Solely to the extent any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution is a party to this Agreement and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender or L/C Issuer that is an EEA Financial Institution; and
(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents (a) Subject to this Section 3.21, the Servicer may agree to any modification, waiver, forbearance, or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan without the consent of the Trustee or any Certificateholder. All modifications, waivers, forbearances or amendments of any Mortgage Loan shall be in writing and shall be consistent with Customary Servicing Procedures.
(b) The Servicer shall not agree to enter into, and shall not enter into, any modification, waiver (other than a waiver referred to in Section 3.13, which waiver, if any, shall be governed by Section 3.13), forbearance or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan if such modification, waiver, forbearance, or amendment would:
(i) affect the amount or timing of any related payment of principal, interest or other amount payable thereunder;
(ii) in the Servicer's judgment, materially impair the security for such Mortgage Loan or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon; or
(iii) otherwise constitute a "significant modification" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b); unless, in either case, (A) such Mortgage Loan is 90 days or more past due or (B) the Servicer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment would not affect the REMIC status of either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC and, in either case, such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery with respect to such Mortgage Loan than would liquidation. Subject to Customary Servicing Procedures, the Servicer may permit a forbearance for a Mortgage Loan which in the Servicer's judgment is subject to imminent default.
(c) Any payment of interest, which is deferred pursuant to any modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment permitted hereunder, shall not, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or such modification, waiver or amendment so permit.
(d) The Servicer may, as a condition to granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment, the granting of which is within the Servicer's discretion pursuant to the Mortgage Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Servicer, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee for the additional services performed in connection with such request, together with any related costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer, which amount shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
(e) The Servicer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, of any modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the Trustee (or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment, promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days) following the execution thereof; provided, however, that if any such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment is required by applicable law to be recorded, the Servicer (i) shall deliver to the Trustee a copy thereof and (ii) shall deliver to the Trustee such document, with evidence of notification upon receipt thereof from the public recording office.
Successors; Assignment; Amendments; Waivers (a) The Existing Stockholders Representative may not assign its rights and obligations in its capacity as Existing Stockholders Representative under this Agreement to any person without the prior written consent of the Corporation; provided, however that the Existing Stockholders Representative may assign its rights and obligations in its capacity as Existing Stockholders Representative under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates, as long as such transferee has executed and delivered, or, in connection with such transfer, executes and delivers, a joinder to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation agreeing to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement and acknowledging specifically the last sentence of the next paragraph.
