Rating of Securities The Company shall take all reasonable action necessary to enable Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of McGraw Hill, Inc. (“S&P”), and Xxxxx’x Investors Service Inc. (“Moody’s”) to provide their respective credit ratings of the Securities.
Designation of Trust and Certificates (a) The Trust ------------------------------------- created hereby shall be known as the "[NAME OF] Certificates Trust, Series 199[__]-[SERIES DESIGNATION]", the Certificates evidencing certain undivided ownership interests therein shall be known as "[NAME OF] Certificates, Series 199[__]-[SERIES DESIGNATION]", the Retained Interest evidencing certain undivided ownership interests in the remainder of the Underlying Securities (as described on Schedule II hereto) shall be known as the "Series 199[__]-[SERIES DESIGNATION] Retained Interest" and the Call Warrant evidencing certain undivided ownership interests in the remainder of the Underlying Securities (as described on Schedule III hereto) shall be known as the "Series 199[__]-[SERIES DESIGNATION] Call Warrant".
(b) The Certificates shall be held through the Depository in book- entry form and shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. The Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in the Standard Terms, the Trust shall not issue additional Certificates or incur any indebtedness.
(c) The Retained Interest will be uncertificated and shall be as described in Schedule II attached hereto. The Retained Interest will be issued to the Depositor and may be transferred by the Depositor to another party at the sole option of the Depositor without the consent of the Certificateholders or any other party. The beneficial ownership interest in the Retained Interest will be recorded on the records of the Trustee. On each Distribution Date, payments will be made on the Retained Interest by wire transfer to the account(s) of holder(s) thereof on the related Record Date as specified in written instructions to the Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not agree to any amendment or modification of this Agreement (including the Standard Terms) which would adversely affect in any material respect the holder of the Retained Interest without the consent of the holder of the Retained Interest.
Voting of Underlying Securities, Modification of Indenture The Trustee, as holder of the Underlying Securities, has the right to vote and give consents and waivers in respect of the Underlying Securities as permitted by the Depository and except as otherwise limited by the Trust Agreement. In the event that the Trustee receives a request from the Depository, the Underlying Securities trustee or the Underlying Securities Issuer for its consent to any amendment, modification or waiver of the Underlying Securities, the Underlying Securities Indenture or any other document thereunder or relating thereto, or receives any other solicitation for any action with respect to the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall mail a notice of such proposed amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation to each Certificateholder of record as of such date. The Trustee shall request instructions from the Certificateholders as to whether or not to consent to or vote to accept such amendment, modification, waiver or solicitation. The Trustee shall consent or vote, or refrain from consenting or voting, in the same proportion (based on the relative outstanding principal balances of the Certificates) as the Certificates of the Trust were actually voted or not voted by the Certificateholders thereof as of a date determined by the Trustee prior to the date on which such consent or vote is required after weighing the votes of the Class A Certificateholders and the Class B Certificateholders in accordance with the Allocation Ratio; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in the Trust Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall at no time vote on or consent to any matter (i) unless such vote or consent would not (based on an Opinion of Counsel) alter the status of the Trust as a "grantor trust" for federal income tax purposes or result in the imposition of tax upon the Certificateholders, or (ii) that would alter the timing or amount of any payment on the Underlying Securities, including, without limitation, any demand to accelerate the Underlying Securities, except in the event of a default under the Underlying Securities or an event that with the passage of time would become an event of default under the Underlying Securities and with the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders and 100% of the Call Holders, or (iii) except as provided in the following paragraph, that would result in the exchange or substitution of any of the outstanding Underlying Securities pursuant to a plan for the refunding or refinancing of such Underlying Securities except in the event of a default under the Underlying Securities Indenture and only with the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders and 100% of the Call Holders. The Trustee shall have no liability for any failure to act resulting from Certificateholders' or Call Holders' late return of, or failure to return, directions requested by the Trustee from the Certificateholders and Call Holders. If an offer is made by the Underlying Securities Issuer to issue new obligations in exchange and substitution for any of the Underlying Securities, pursuant to a plan for the refunding or refinancing of the outstanding Underlying Securities or any other offer is made for the Underlying Securities, the Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders, the Call Holders and the Rating Agencies of such offer promptly. Subject to Sections 7(b) and 14 in connection with a tender offer and the exercise of Call Rights or Optional Exchange rights, the Trustee must reject any such offer unless the Trustee is directed by the affirmative vote of 100% of the Certificateholders and 100% of the Call Holders to accept such offer, the Trustee has received the tax opinion described above and if the Trustee is so directed, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of such direction accompanied by evidence of the affirmative vote of such Certificateholders and Call Holders. If an event of default under the Underlying Securities Indenture occurs and is continuing, and if directed by 100% of the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall vote the Underlying Securities in favor of directing, or take such other action as may be appropriate to direct, the Underlying Securities trustee to declare the unpaid principal amount of the Underlying Securities and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to be due and payable.
Determination of Pass-Through Rates for COFI Certificates The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of COFI Certificates for each Interest Accrual Period after the initial Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee as provided below on the basis of the Index and the applicable formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the COFI Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary Statement. Except as provided below, with respect to each Interest Accrual Period following the initial Interest Accrual Period, the Trustee shall not later than two Business Days prior to such Interest Accrual Period but following the publication of the applicable Index determine the Pass-Through Rate at which interest shall accrue in respect of the COFI Certificates during the related Interest Accrual Period. Except as provided below, the Index to be used in determining the respective Pass-Through Rates for the COFI Certificates for a particular Interest Accrual Period shall be COFI for the second calendar month preceding the Outside Reference Date for such Interest Accrual Period. If at the Outside Reference Date for any Interest Accrual Period, COFI for the second calendar month preceding such Outside Reference Date has not been published, the Trustee shall use COFI for the third calendar month preceding such Outside Reference Date. If COFI for neither the second nor third calendar months preceding any Outside Reference Date has been published on or before the related Outside Reference Date, the Index for such Interest Accrual Period and for all subsequent Interest Accrual Periods shall be the National Cost of Funds Index for the third calendar month preceding such Interest Accrual Period (or the fourth preceding calendar month if such National Cost of Funds Index for the third preceding calendar month has not been published by such Outside Reference Date). In the event that the National Cost of Funds Index for neither the third nor fourth calendar months preceding an Interest Accrual Period has been published on or before the related Outside Reference Date, then for such Interest Accrual Period and for each succeeding Interest Accrual Period, the Index shall be LIBOR, determined in the manner set forth below. With respect to any Interest Accrual Period for which the applicable Index is LIBOR, LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period will be established by the Trustee on the related Interest Determination Date as provided in Section 4.08. In determining LIBOR and any Pass-Through Rate for the COFI Certificates or any Reserve Interest Rate, the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in relying upon the offered quotations (whether written, oral or on the Reuters Screen) from the Reference Banks or the New York City banks as to LIBOR or the Reserve Interest Rate, as appropriate, in effect from time to time. The Trustee shall not have any liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the Trustee's selection of New York City banks for purposes of determining any Reserve Interest Rate or (ii) its inability, following a good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such quotations from the Reference Banks or the New York City banks or to determine such arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this Section 4.07. The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the COFI Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
Purchase of Notes By Principal Life Principal Life may purchase some or all of the Notes in the open market or otherwise at any time, and from time to time. Simultaneously, upon such purchase, (1) the purchased Notes shall, by their terms become mandatorily redeemable by the Trust as specified in the related Pricing Supplement, Prospectus Supplement and/or Prospectus and (2) the Fund under this Agreement shall be permanently reduced by the same percentage as the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed bears to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Notes issued and outstanding immediately prior to such redemption and (ii) the principal amount of the Trust Beneficial Interest related to such Notes. If Principal Life, in its sole discretion, engages in such open market or other purchases, then the Trust, the Indenture Trustee in respect of such Notes, and Principal Life shall take actions (including, in the case of Principal Life, making the payment(s) necessary to effect the Trust’s redemption of such Notes) as may be necessary or desirable to effect the cancellation of such Notes by the Trust.
Outstanding Notes The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a) hereof. If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and will cease to accrue interest.
Replacement of Notes Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and
(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or
(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.
Certificates Issuable in Classes; Distributions of Principal and Interest; Authorized Denominations The aggregate principal amount of the Certificates that may be authenticated and delivered under this Agreement is limited to the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-Off Date, as specified in the Preliminary Statement to this Agreement, except for Certificates authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03. 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.

(a) provide or cause Mortgage Borrower and Senior Mezzanine Borrower to provide additional and/or updated Provided Information, together with appropriate verification and/or consents related to the Provided Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel of independent attorneys reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
(b) cooperate in good faith in the preparation of descriptive materials for presentations to any or all of the Rating Agencies, and work with, and if requested, supervise, third-party service providers engaged by Borrower, Holdings and their respective affiliates to obtain, collect, and deliver information requested or required by Lender or the Rating Agencies;

(e) execute such amendments to the Loan Documents as may be requested by Lender or the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization and/or deliver one or more new component notes to replace the original note or modify the original note to reflect multiple components of the Loan such that the pricing and marketability of the Securities and the size of each class of Securities and the rating assigned to each such class by the Rating Agencies shall provide the most favorable rating levels and achieve the optimum rating levels for the Loan, provided that, (i) the aggregate stated principal amount of the notes, following such amendments or deliver of new or component notes, shall equal the aggregate stated principal amount of the Loan immediately prior thereto, (ii) the weighted average spread of the Loan on the date of such amendment or delivery of new or component notes shall equal the weighted average spread which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to such adjustment (Borrower acknowledging that such new notes or modified notes may, in connection with the application of principal to such new notes or modified note following the occurrence of an Event of Default, but not otherwise, subsequently cause the weighted average spread of such new notes or modified notes to change and (iii) the provisions of Section 2.1.5 otherwise shall apply to any such amendments and delivery of new or component notes (such provisions being incorporated herein by this reference);
(f) if requested by Lender, review any information regarding any of the Properties, Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, Senior Mezzanine Borrower, Principal, the Collateral, the Senior Mezzanine Collateral, Holdings, the Operating Company and the Loan which is contained in a preliminary or final private placement memorandum, prospectus, prospectus supplement (including any amendment or supplement to either thereof), or other disclosure document to be used by Lender or any affiliate thereof; and

Lender and Borrower each shall pay their respective costs and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing, including, without limitation, legal fees in connection with any of the foregoing matters; except that all costs and expenses of Lender and Borrower associated with any restructuring of the Loan requested by Lender, including under Sections 2.1.5, 2.1.6 and 2.1.7, shall be paid solely by Lender.
