Certain Obligations of the Company The Company agrees that it will ---------------------------------- not increase the par value of the shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant above the prevailing and currently applicable Exercise Price hereunder, and that before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the prevailing and current applicable Exercise Price hereunder below the then par value of the Warrant Stock at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action, as in the opinion of its counsel, may be necessary in order that the Company may validly issue fully paid, nonassessable shares of such Warrant Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company will maintain an office or agency (which shall initially be the Company's principal office in Redwood City, California) where presentations and demands to or upon the Company in respect of this Warrant may be made and will give notice in writing to the registered holders of the then outstanding Warrants, at their addresses as shown on the books of the Company, of each change of location thereof.

Each Subordinate Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of such Subordinate Noteholder and that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) shall have no liability whatsoever to such Subordinate Noteholder in connection with the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Noteholder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that such Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Each Subordinate Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the obligation of any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Non-Lead Servicer) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard (as if such standard was applicable to any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder as a “servicer” thereunder), each Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Non-Lead Servicer) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of such Subordinate Noteholder and that any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Non-Lead Servicer) shall have no liability whatsoever to such Subordinate Noteholder in connection with any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by a Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that the Non-Lead Servicer must act in accordance with the servicing standard under the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Transfer Agent or Registrar assumes any obligation and shall not be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to holders of Receipts, the Company or any other person or entity other than for its bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct (which bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Depositary, nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Transfer Agent or Registrar shall be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, including but not limited to, lost profits, even if such person or entity alleged to be liable has knowledge of the possibility of such damages. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Depositary’s aggregate liability during any term of this Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Company to Depositary as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses. None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent or the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding with respect to the deposited Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or Receipts that in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and liability be furnished as often as may be required. None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent or the Company shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information provided by any person presenting Preferred Stock for deposit or any holder of a Receipt. The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent and the Company may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. In the event the Depositary shall receive conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any holders of Receipts, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, the Depositary shall be entitled to act on such claims, requests or instructions received from the Company, and shall incur no liability and shall be entitled to the full indemnification set forth in Section 5.06 in connection with any action so taken. The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction to vote any of the deposited Preferred Stock or for the manner or effect of any such vote made, as long as any such action or non-action does not result from bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Depositary (which bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Depositary undertakes, and any Registrar or Transfer Agent shall be required to undertake, to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Depositary or any Registrar or Transfer Agent.

The Depositary may also act as transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the Company and its affiliates or act in any other capacity for the Company or its affiliates. It is intended that neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent shall be deemed to be an “issuer” of the securities under the federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Depositary and any Depositary’s Agent are acting only in a ministerial capacity as Depositary for the deposited Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Depositary agrees to comply with all information reporting and withholding requirements applicable to it under law or this Deposit Agreement in its capacity as Depositary. Neither the Depositary (or its officers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates) nor any Depositary’s Agent makes any representation or has any responsibility as to the validity of the registration statement pursuant to which the Depositary Shares are registered under the Securities Act, the deposited Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares, the Receipts (except its countersignature thereon) or any instruments referred to therein or herein, or as to the correctness of any statement made therein or herein; provided, however, that the Depositary is responsible for its representations in this Deposit Agreement. The Company agrees that it will register the deposited Preferred Stock and the Depositary Shares in accordance with the applicable securities laws.

Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively provided and established by a certificate signed by any one of the President, any Vice President, the Treasurer, the Deputy Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer, Head of Corporate Finance, the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar; and such certificate shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar and the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Deposit Agreement in reliance upon such certificate.

The Custodian may, with respect to questions of law apply for and obtain the advice and opinion of counsel to the Trust at the expense of the Fund, or of its own counsel at its own expense, and shall be fully protected with respect to anything done or omitted by it in good faith in conformity with the advice or opinion of counsel to the Trust, and shall be similarly protected with respect to anything done or omitted by it in good faith in conformity with advice or opinion of its counsel, unless counsel to the Fund shall, within a reasonable time after being notified of legal advice received by the Custodian, have a differing interpretation of such question of law. The Custodian shall be liable to the Trust for any proximate loss or damage resulting from the use of the Book-Entry System or any Depository arising by reason of any negligence, misfeasance or misconduct on the part of the Custodian or any of its employees, agents, nominees or Sub-Custodians, but not for any special, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall preclude recovery by the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, of principal and of interest to the date of recovery on Securities incorrectly omitted from the Fund's account or penalties imposed on the Trust, in connection with the Fund, for any failures to deliver Securities. In any case in which one party hereto may be asked to indemnify the other or hold the other harmless, the party from whom indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") shall be advised of all pertinent facts concerning the situation in question, and the party claiming a right to indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") will use reasonable care to identify and notify the Indemnifying Party promptly concerning any situation which presents or appears to present a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the option to defend the Indemnified Party against any claim which may be the subject of the indemnification, and in the event the Indemnifying Party so elects, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will so notify the Indemnified Party and thereupon such Indemnifying Party shall take over the complete defense of the claim and the Indemnifying Party shall sustain no further legal or other expenses in such situation for which indemnification has been sought under this paragraph, except the expenses of any additional counsel retained by the Indemnified Party. In no case shall any party claiming the right to indemnification confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the other party has been asked to indemnify such party (unless such confession or compromise is made with such other party's prior written consent.
