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.

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.
Limited Condition Transactions (a) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of (i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of the First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Secured Leverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio, the Interest Coverage Ratio or any other financial ratio; or (ii) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated Total Assets or Consolidated EBITDA, if any), in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such transaction is permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be the date (the “LCT Test Date”), (x) the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (or, in respect of any transaction described in clause (ii) of the definition of “Limited Condition Transaction,” delivery of irrevocable notice, declaration of dividend or similar event), and not at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or (y) solely in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers applies (or similar law in another jurisdiction), the date on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer (or equivalent announcement in another jurisdiction) (a “Public Offer”) in respect of a target of such acquisition, and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent test period ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with.
(b) For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Total Assets or Consolidated EBITDA on a consolidated basis or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the relevant transaction or action is permitted to be consummated or taken; provided that if such ratios or baskets improve as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios and/or baskets may be utilized. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Indebtedness, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires (or, if applicable, the irrevocable notice, declaration of dividend or similar event is terminated or expires or, as applicable, the offer in respect of a Public Offer for, such acquisition is terminated) without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be tested by calculating the availability under such ratio or basket on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith have been consummated (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and any associated Lien and the use of proceeds thereof; provided that Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Interest Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith).
(c) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default, Event of Default or Specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Borrower, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or Specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has exercised its option under this Section 1.10, and any Default, Event of Default or Specified Event of Default occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction were entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.
Limited Condition Acquisitions Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when calculating any applicable ratio or any basket based on Consolidated EBITDA or total assets, or determining other compliance with this Agreement (including the determination of compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, but excluding Section 4.02 to the extent set forth therein) in connection with a Specified Transaction undertaken in connection with the consummation of a Limited Condition Acquisition, the date of determination of such ratio or any basket based on Consolidated EBITDA or total assets, and determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom or other applicable covenant shall, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, an “LCA Election”), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into (the “LCA Test Date”) and if, after such ratios and other provisions are measured on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other Specified Transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period ending prior to the LCA Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratios and provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that no such acquisition shall constitute a Limited Condition Acquisition unless the Payment Conditions are satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis on the applicable LCA Test Date. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such ratios are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder and (y) such ratios and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or related Specified Transactions. If the Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to any other Specified Transaction on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.
