The Global Agent shall be the "Registrar" for the purpose of registration and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Note Register shall contain the name, address and remittance instructions for each Holder of a Note. (b) Each Note shall be issued in minimum denominations of not less than the Minimum Denomination, so that on the Closing Date the sum of the denominations of all outstanding Notes shall equal the applicable Initial Note Principal Balance. On the Closing Date and pursuant to an Issuer Order, the Registrar will execute and authenticate one or more DTC Notes in an aggregate principal amount that shall equal the applicable Initial Note Principal Balance. (c) The DTC Notes shall be delivered by the Issuer to DTC or, pursuant to DTC's instructions, shall be delivered by the Issuer on behalf of DTC to and deposited with the DTC Custodian, and in each case shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. The Book-Entry Notes may be deposited with such other depository as the Issuer may from time to time designate, and shall bear such legend as may be appropriate; provided that such successor depository maintains a book-entry system that qualifies to be treated as "registered form" under Section 163(f)(3) of the Code. (d) With respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, the Issuer and the Global Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation to direct or indirect participants or Beneficial Owners for which DTC holds Notes from time to time as a depository. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer and the Global Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of DTC, Cede & Co., or any direct or indirect participant with respect to the ownership interest in the Notes, (ii) the delivery to any direct or indirect participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder, of a Note, (iii) the payment to any direct or indirect participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register, of any amount with respect to any distribution of principal or interest on the Notes or (iv) the making of book-entry transfers among participants of DTC with respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of the nominee of DTC. No Person other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register shall receive a physical Note evidencing such Note. (e) Upon delivery by DTC to the Global Agent of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with respect to the payment of distributions by the mailing of checks or drafts to the registered Holders of Notes appearing as registered owners in the Note Register on a Record Date, the name "Cede & Co." in this Agreement shall refer to such new nominee of DTC. (f) In the event that DTC advises the Global Agent in writing that DTC is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect to the DTC Notes and the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor in accordance with Section 5(a) hereof, the DTC Notes shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co. (or a successor nominee) as nominee of DTC. At that time, the Issuer may determine that the DTC Notes shall be registered in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a global book-entry system, as may be acceptable to the Issuer, or such depository's agent or designee but, if the Issuer does not select such alternative global book-entry system, then upon surrender to the Registrar of the DTC Notes by DTC, accompanied by the registration instructions from DTC for registration, the Global Agent shall at the Issuer's expense authenticate Definitive Notes in accordance with Section 5 hereof. Neither the Issuer nor the Global Agent shall be liable for any delay in DTC's delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.

(h) Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office of the Registrar and, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer shall execute and the Global Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, in any authorized denominations, of the same class and percentage interest and dated the date of authentication by the Global Agent. The Registrar shall maintain a record of any such transfer and deliver it to the Issuer upon request. (i) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Issuer and the Global Agent may deem and treat as the absolute owner of such Note the registered holder of such Note that appears in the Note Register, in each case for the purpose of receiving payments on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever. For purposes of any DTC Note deposited with or held on behalf of DTC (or any nominee of DTC), DTC (or such nominee) shall be considered the sole holder of any Notes related thereto. (j) In case any Note shall become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, upon written application of the Holder thereof, the Issuer will execute and, upon the Issuer's written request, the Global Agent shall authenticate and deliver a new Note, having a number not contemporaneously outstanding, of like tenor and equal principal amount, registered in the same manner, and dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Note (upon surrender and cancellation thereof) or in lieu of and substitution for the Note destroyed, lost or stolen. In the case of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note, the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer and the Global Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer and the Global Agent satisfactory evidence of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof. Any mutilated or defaced Notes shall be surrendered before replacements will be issued. The Global Agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver or cause the relevant transfer agent to deliver the same upon written request or authorization of any Authorized Officer of the Issuer. Upon the issuance of any substituted Note, the Issuer and the Global Agent may require the payment by the Holder thereof of a sum sufficient to cover any taxes and expenses connected therewith. In case any Note which has matured or is about to mature shall be mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may (if the Holder so agrees), instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Note) upon compliance by the Holder with the provisions of this Section 4.
