• Establishment and Designation of Series and Classes The establishment and designation of any Series or Class shall be effective, without the requirement of Shareholder approval, upon the adoption of a resolution by not less than a majority of the then Board of Trustees, which resolution shall set forth such establishment and designation and may provide, to the extent permitted by the DSTA, for rights, powers and duties of such Series or Class (including variations in the relative rights and preferences as between the different Series and Classes) otherwise than as provided herein. Each such resolution shall be incorporated herein by reference upon adoption. Any such resolution may be amended by a further resolution of a majority of the Board of Trustees, and if Shareholder approval would be required to make such an amendment to the language set forth in this Declaration of Trust, such further resolution shall require the same Shareholder approval that would be necessary to make such amendment to the language set forth in this Declaration of Trust. Each such further resolution shall be incorporated herein by reference upon adoption. Each Series shall be separate and distinct from any other Series, separate and distinct records on the books of the Trust shall be maintained for each Series, and the assets and liabilities belonging to any such Series shall be held and accounted for separately from the assets and liabilities of the Trust or any other Series. Each Class of the Trust shall be separate and distinct from any other Class of the Trust. Each Class of a Series shall be separate and distinct from any other Class of the Series. As appropriate, in a manner determined by the Board of Trustees, the liabilities belonging to any such Class shall be held and accounted for separately from the liabilities of the Trust, the Series or any other Class and separate and distinct records on the books of the Trust for the Class shall be maintained for this purpose. Subject to Article II hereof, each such Series shall operate as a separate and distinct investment medium, with separately defined investment objectives and policies. Shares of each Series (and Class where applicable) established and designated pursuant to this Section 6, unless otherwise provided to the extent permitted by the DSTA, in the resolution establishing and designating such Series or Class, shall have the following rights, powers and duties:

• Establishment and Designation of Series The establishment and designation of any Series or class of Shares shall be effective upon the resolution by a majority of the then Board of Trustees, adopting a resolution which sets forth such establishment and designation and the relative rights and preferences of such Series or class. Each such resolution shall be incorporated herein by reference upon adoption. Each Series shall be separate and distinct from any other Series and shall maintain separate and distinct records on the books of the Trust, and the assets and liabilities belonging to any such Series shall be held and accounted for separately from the assets and liabilities of the Trust or any other Series. Shares of each Series or class established pursuant to this Section 6, unless otherwise provided in the resolution establishing such Series, shall have the following relative rights and preferences: (a) Assets Held with Respect to a Particular Series. All consideration received by the Trust for the issue or sale of Shares of a particular Series, together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested, all income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof from whatever source derived, including, without limitation, any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall irrevocably be held with respect to that Series for all purposes, subject only to the rights of creditors with respect to that Series, and shall be so recorded upon the books of account of the Trust. Such consideration, assets, income, earnings, profits and proceeds thereof, from whatever source derived, including, without limitation, any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds, in whatever form the same may be, are herein referred to as "assets held with respect to" that Series. In the event that there are any assets, income, earnings, profits and proceeds thereof, funds or payments which are not readily identifiable as assets held with respect to any particular Series (collectively "General Assets"), the Board of Trustees shall allocate such General Assets to, between or among any one or more of the Series in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion, deems fair and equitable, and any General Asset so allocated to a particular Series shall be held with respect to that Series. Each such allocation by the Board of Trustees shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholders of all Series for all purposes.

• Establishment of Series Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Managing Member may, at any time and from time to time and in compliance with paragraph (c), cause the Company to establish in writing (each, a Series Designation) one or more series as such term is used under Section 18-215 of the Delaware Act (each a Series). The Series Designation shall relate solely to the Series established thereby and shall not be construed: (i) to affect the terms and conditions of any other Series, or (ii) to designate, fix or determine the rights, powers, authority, privileges, preferences, duties, responsibilities, liabilities and obligations in respect of Interests associated with any other Series, or the Members associated therewith. The terms and conditions for each Series established pursuant to this Section shall be as set forth in this Agreement and the Series Designation, as applicable, for the Series. Upon approval of any Series Designation by the Managing Member, such Series Designation shall be attached to this Agreement as an Exhibit until such time as none of such Interests of such Series remain Outstanding.

• Establishment of Series and Classes The Trust shall consist of one or more Series and Classes and separate and distinct records shall be maintained by the Trust for each Series and Class. The Trustees shall have full power and authority, in their sole discretion, and without obtaining any prior authorization or vote of the Shareholders of any Series or Class of the Trust, to establish and designate and to change in any manner any initial or additional Series or Classes and to fix such preferences, voting powers, rights and privileges of such Series or Classes as the Trustees may from time to time determine, to divide or combine the Shares or any Series or Classes into a greater or lesser number, to classify or reclassify any issued Shares or any Series or Classes into one or more Series or Classes of Shares, and to take such other action with respect to the Shares as the Trustees may deem desirable. Unless another time is specified by the Trustees, the establishment and designation of any Series or Class shall be effective upon the adoption of a resolution by the Trustees setting forth such establishment and designation and the preferences, powers, rights and privileges of the Shares of such Series or Class, whether directly in such resolution or by reference to, or approval of, another document that sets forth such relative rights and preferences of such Series (or Class) including, without limitation, any registration statement of the Trust, or as otherwise provided in such resolution. The Trust may issue any number of Shares of each Series or Class and need not issue certificates for any Shares. All references to Shares in this Trust Instrument shall be deemed to be Shares of any or all Series or Classes as the context may require. All provisions herein relating to the Trust shall apply equally to each Series and Class of the Trust except as the context otherwise requires. All Shares of each Class of a particular Series shall represent an equal proportionate interest in the assets belonging to that Series (subject to the liabilities belonging to the Series, and, in the case of each Class, to the liabilities belonging to that Class), and each Share of any Class of a particular Series shall be equal to each other Share of that Class; but the provisions of this sentence shall not restrict any distinctions permissible under this Section 2.6.

• Establishment of Certificate Distribution Account (a) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Owner Trustee an Eligible Deposit Account known as the Certificate Distribution Account (the "Certificate Distribution Account"), bearing an additional designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Certificate Distribution Account shall initially be established with . (b) The Owner Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in and to all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof (except Investment Proceeds therefrom as set forth in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Certificate Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Owner Trustee (or the Servicer on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate Distribution Account is not then held by the Owner Trustee or an Affiliate thereof) shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Certificate Distribution Account.

• Designation, Amount and Par Value The series of preferred stock shall be designated as the Series D 5% Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock"), and the number of shares so designated and authorized shall be Three Thousand (3,000). Each share of Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.0001 per share and a stated value of $1,000 per share (the "Stated Value").

• Establishment of Series and Classes of Shares Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.6, the Trust shall consist of the Series and Classes indicated on Schedule A attached hereto (“Schedule A”), as such Schedule A may be amended from time to time. The Series and Classes indicated on Schedule A as of the date hereof are hereby established and are referred to as the “Initial Series and Classes.” The establishment of any Series or Class of Shares (other than the Initial Series and Classes) shall be effective upon the adoption by the Trustees of a resolution that sets forth the designation of, or otherwise identifies, such Series or Class, whether directly in such resolution or by reference to, or approval of, another document that sets forth the designation of, or otherwise identifies, such Series or Class including any Registration Statement, any amendment and/or restatement of this Declaration of Trust and/or Schedule A or as otherwise provided in such resolution. Upon the establishment of any Series or Class of Shares or the termination of any existing Series or Class of Shares, Schedule A shall be amended to reflect the addition or termination of such Series or Class and any officer of the Trust is hereby authorized to make such amendment; provided that the amendment of Schedule A shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment or termination of any Series or Class in accordance with this Declaration of Trust. The relative rights and preferences of each Series and each Class (including the Initial Series and Classes) shall be as set forth herein and as set forth in any Registration Statement relating thereto, unless (with respect to any Series or Class other than the Initial Series and Classes) otherwise provided in the resolution establishing such Series or Class. Any action that may be taken by the Trustees with respect to any Series or Class, including any addition, modification, division, combination, classification, reclassification, change of name or termination may be made in the same manner as the establishment of such Series or Class. Unless otherwise provided in any Registration Statement relating thereto, Shares of the Initial Series and Classes and each additional Series or Class established pursuant to this Article III (unless otherwise provided in the resolution establishing such additional Series or Class), shall have the following relative rights and preferences:

Such aggregate principal amount shall be allocated among one or more Classes having designations, types of interests, initial per annum Certificate Interest Rates, initial Class Principal Balances and Final Maturity Dates as specified in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement. The aggregate Percentage Interest of each Class of Certificates of which the Class Principal Balance equals zero as of the Cut-Off Date that may be authenticated and delivered under this Agreement is limited to 100%. Certificates shall be issued in Authorized Denominations.

• Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section (4)(d)) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

• Extension Amendments (a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (after giving effect to any amendments and/or waivers that are or become effective on the date of the relevant conversion), the Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that (i) all or a portion of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding selected by the Borrower (the “Original Term Loans”) and/or (ii) all or a portion of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments then outstanding selected by the Borrower (such Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Original Revolving Credit Commitments”, collectively with the Original Term Loans, an “Original Class”) be converted to extend the maturity date thereof and to provide for other terms permitted by this Section 2.23 (any portion thereof that have been so extended, the “Extended Term Loans” or “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”, as the case may be, and collectively, the “Extended Class” and the remainder not so extended, the “Non-Extended Term Loans” or “Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”, as the case may be, and collectively, the “Non-Extended Class”); provided that, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, may be designated as part of an existing Class of Loans. Prior to entering into any Extension Amendment with respect to any Original Class, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent and any applicable Additional Arranger administering the Original Class (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each Lender who has Loans or Commitments of the Original Class) in such form as approved from time to time by the Borrower and the applicable Additional Arranger (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the terms of the proposed Extended Class, as applicable, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Original Class, except for Section 2.23 Additional Agreements or as otherwise permitted by this Section 2.23 and except (w) the maturity date of the Extended Class may be delayed to a date after the Maturity Date of the Original Class, (x) Extended Term Loans may have different amortization payments than the Original Term Loans; provided that the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Original Term Loans from which they were converted, (y) All-In Yield with respect to any Loans or Commitments of the Extended Class may be higher or lower than the All-In Yield with respect to any Loans or Commitments of the Original Class and (z)(A) the Extended Term Loans (i) may participate on a pro rata basis, less than pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis in any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans (except that, unless otherwise permitted under this Agreement, such Extended Term Loans may not participate on a greater than pro rata basis as compared to any earlier maturing Class of Term Loans) and (ii) may participate on a pro rata basis, less than pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayment of Term Loans, and (B) the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (i) shall provide that the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (ii) below)) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments after the associated Extended Facility Closing Date shall be made on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not more than a pro rata basis) with all other Revolving Credit Commitments then existing on the Extended Facility Closing Date and (ii) may provide that the permanent repayment of Revolving Credit Loans with respect to, and termination or reduction of, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments after the associated Extended Facility Closing Date be made on a pro rata basis, less than pro rata basis or greater than pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments. In addition to any other terms and changes required or permitted by this Section 2.23, each Extension Amendment establishing a Class of Extended Term Loans shall amend the scheduled amortization payments provided under Section 2.11 with respect to the related Non-Extended Term Loans to reduce each scheduled installment for such Non-Extended Term Loans to an aggregate amount equal to the product of (A) the original aggregate amount of such installment with respect to the Original Term Loans, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of such related Non-Extended Term Loans and (y) the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of such Original Term Loans prior to the effectiveness of such Extension Amendment (it being understood that the amount of any installment payable with respect to any individual Non-Extended Term Loan shall not be reduced as a result thereof without the consent of the holder of such individual Non-Extended Term Loan). No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Original Term Loans or Original Revolving Credit Commitments converted into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to any Extension Request.
