Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Equipment Notes The Mortgagee shall keep a register (the "Equipment Note Register") in which the Mortgagee shall provide for the registration of Equipment Notes and the registration of transfers of Equipment Notes. No such transfer shall be given effect unless and until registration hereunder shall have occurred. The Equipment Note Register shall be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee is hereby appointed "Equipment Note Registrar" for the purpose of registering Equipment Notes and transfers of Equipment Notes as herein provided. A holder of any Equipment Note intending to exchange such Equipment Note shall surrender such Equipment Note to the Mortgagee at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written request from the registered holder thereof for the issuance of a new Equipment Note, specifying, in the case of a surrender for transfer, the name and address of the new holder or holders. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Equipment Note, the Owner Trustee shall execute, and the Mortgagee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equipment Notes of a like aggregate Original Amount and of the same series. At the option of the Note Holder, Equipment Notes may be exchanged for other Equipment Notes of any authorized denominations of a like aggregate Original Amount, upon surrender of the Equipment Notes to be exchanged to the Mortgagee at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equipment Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Owner Trustee shall execute, and the Mortgagee shall authenticate and deliver, the Equipment Notes which the Note Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. All Equipment Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes (whether under this Section 2.07 or under Section 2.08 hereof or otherwise under this Trust Indenture) shall be the valid obligations of the Owner Trustee evidencing the same respective obligations, and entitled to the same security and benefits under this Trust Indenture, as the Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Equipment Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer shall (if so required by the Mortgagee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Mortgagee duly executed by the Note Holder or such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Mortgagee shall require evidence satisfactory to it as to the compliance of any such transfer with the Securities Act, and the securities Laws of any applicable state. The Mortgagee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note of the amount of all payments of Original Amount previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to which such new Equipment Note is issued and the date to which interest on such old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes has been paid. Interest shall be deemed to have been paid on such new Equipment Note to the date on which interest shall have been paid on such old Equipment Note, and all payments of the Original Amount marked on such new Equipment Note, as provided above, shall be deemed to have been made thereon. The Owner Trustee shall not be required to exchange any surrendered Equipment Notes as provided above during the ten-day period preceding the due date of any payment on such Equipment Note. The Owner Trustee shall in all cases deem the Person in whose name any Equipment Note shall have been issued and registered as the absolute owner and holder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable by the Owner Trustee with respect to such Equipment Note and for all purposes until a notice stating otherwise is received from the Mortgagee and such change is reflected on the Equipment Note Register. The Mortgagee will promptly notify the Owner Trustee and the Lessee of each registration of a transfer of an Equipment Note. Any such transferee of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, agrees to the provisions of the Participation Agreement applicable to Note Holders, and shall be deemed to have covenanted to the parties to the Participation Agreement as to the matters covenanted by the original Loan Participant in the Participation Agreement. Subject to compliance by the Note Holder and its transferee (if any) of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.07, Mortgagee and Owner Trustee shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new Equipment Notes upon transfer or exchange within 10 Business Days of the date an Equipment Note is surrendered for transfer or exchange.
Registration of Notes The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes.

Registration of Certificates; Transfer and Exchange of Certificates (a) The Indenture Trustee initially shall be the registrar (the “Certificate Registrar”) for the purpose of registering Certificates and Transfers of Certificates as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8, a register (the “Certificate Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of Certificates and the registration of Transfers of Certificates. Upon any resignation of any Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee shall, upon receipt of written instructions from the Depositor, promptly appoint a successor. (b) The Certificates may not be acquired with the plan assets of any (i) “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) “plan” described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, including individual retirement accounts and Xxxxx plans, that is subject to the provisions of Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulation by reason of an employee benefit plan’s or plan’s investment in such entity or (iv) employee benefit plan or arrangement not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (each of (i) through (iv), a “Plan”), other than any Plan that is not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and whose acquisition of a Certificate would not constitute or result in a violation of any applicable law that is substantially similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”). Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate, shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Certificateholder is either (i) not a Plan and is not a Person acting on behalf of a Plan or a Person using the assets of a Plan to effect the transfer of such Certificate, or (ii) a Plan that is not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and whose acquisition of a Certificate would not constitute or result in a violation under any Similar Law. Any person who is not an affiliate of the Seller and acquires more than 49.9% of the Certificates will be deemed to represent that it is not a “party in interest” (within the meaning of ERISA) or a “disqualified person” (within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code) with respect to any Plan, other than a Plan that it sponsors for the benefit of its employees, and that no Plan with respect to which it is a party in interest or disqualified person has or will acquire any interest in the Notes. To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be under any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any Certificate that is in fact not permitted or for taking any other action with respect to such Certificate under the provisions of this Trust Agreement so long as such transfer was registered by the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in accordance with this Trust Agreement. (c) Upon surrender for registration of Transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.8, and upon compliance with any provisions of this Trust Agreement relating to such Transfer, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Certificateholder making such surrender, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in any authorized denomination evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Trust. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form X-0XXX-X, X-0XXX or W-9, as applicable, and such other documentation as may be reasonably required by the Owner Trustee in order to comply with Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, each in a form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made for any registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any Transfer or exchange of Certificates. Further, in the event of any subsequent transfer of a Certificate (or any interest therein), each owner of a beneficial interest shall comply with Section 1446(f) of the Code (including with respect to deducting and withholding from the purchase price paid in respect of such Certificate unless the transferee obtained a certificate providing for an exemption from such withholding). (d) As a condition to the registration of any Transfer of any Certificate: (i) the prospective transferee shall be required to represent in writing to the Owner Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar that it has neither acquired nor will it transfer any Certificate it purchases (or any interest therein) or cause any such Certificate (or any interest therein) to be marketed on or through an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Code, including, without limitation, an over-the-counter-market or an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations; (ii) the prospective transferee shall be required to represent in writing to the Owner Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar that it either (A) is not, and will not become, a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes or (B) is such an entity, but none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such transferee have allowed or caused, or will allow or cause, 50% or more (or such other percentage as the transferor may establish prior to the time of such proposed transfer) of the value of such interests to be attributable to such transferee’s ownership of Certificates; (iii) the prospective transferee shall be required to represent in writing to the Owner Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar that it is either (i) not a Plan and is not a Person acting on behalf of a Plan or a Person using the assets of a Plan to effect the transfer of such Certificate, or (ii) a Plan that is not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and whose acquisition of a Certificate would not constitute or result in a violation under any Similar Law; (iv) the Certificateholder provides to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor an opinion of independent counsel that such action will not cause the Issuer to be treated as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes; (v) such transferee or assignee agrees to take positions for tax purposes consistent with the tax positions agreed to be taken by the Certificateholder; and (vi) in connection with any transfer of less than all of the interests in the Certificates, the transferor and transferee shall specify the respective interests in the Certificates to be held by the transferor and transferee, which interests may be determined by a formula or on any other basis agreed by the transferor and transferee. No Certificate (other than the Certificates issued to and held by the Depositor) may be subdivided upon transfer or exchange in a manner such that the resulting Certificate represents less than a 2.50% fractional undivided interest in the Issuer (or such other amount as the Depositor may determine in order to prevent the Issuer from being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code). (e) No Certificateholder shall Transfer any Certificate initially held by it unless such Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement or otherwise in accordance with the requirements under the Securities Act and effective registration or qualification under applicable State securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or qualification. If a Transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and under applicable State securities laws, (i) the Certificate Registrar may require an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor substantially to the effect that such Transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act and applicable State securities laws and describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, and (ii) the Certificate Registrar may require the transferee to execute a certification acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor setting forth the facts surrounding such Transfer. (f) No Transfer of any Certificate shall be permitted, recognized or recorded unless the Depositor has consented in writing to such Transfer, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of the Depositor; provided, however, that no such consent of the Depositor shall be required where the proposed transferee is, and at the time of such Transfer will be, a Certificateholder. (g) During the period described in 17 CFR Part 246.12(f)(1), no Certificateholder may Transfer any Certificate until the expiration of such period; provided, that, during such period, such Certificateholder may Transfer any Certificate to CarMax or any “majority-owned affiliate” (as such term is defined in 17 CFR Part 246.2) of CarMax in accordance with the restrictions contained in 17 CFR Part 246.12. Any purported transfer of a Certificate not in accordance with this Section 3.4(g) shall be null and void and shall not be given effect for any purpose whatsoever.
Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificate The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.7, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of the Certificate and of transfers and exchanges of the Certificate as herein provided. Wilmington Trust Company shall be the initial Certificate Registrar. The Certificate Registrar shall provide the Trust Collateral Agent and the Trustee with the name and address of the Certificateholder (if other than the Depositor) on the Closing Date. Upon any transfers of the Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall notify the Trust Collateral Agent and the Trustee of the name and address of the transferee in writing, by facsimile, on the day of such transfer. The Trust Collateral Agent and the Trustee shall be entitled to fully rely on the most recently provided Certificateholder information with no liability therefor. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of the Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.7, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause its authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the designated transferee, a new Certificate dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. A Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Certificate Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Certificate Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Exchange Act. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Owner Trustee in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Certificate, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Certificate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no sale or transfer of a Certificate shall be permitted (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation), and no such sale or transfer shall be registered by the Certificate Registrar to be effective hereunder, if the sale or transfer thereof increases the number of Certificateholders to more than ninety-nine (99). For purposes of determining the total number of Certificateholders, a beneficial owner of an interest in a partnership, grantor trust, S corporation or other flow-through entity that owns, directly or through other flow-through entities, a Certificate is treated as a holder of a Certificate if (i) substantially all of the value of the beneficial owner’s interest (directly or indirectly) in the flow-through entity is attributed to the flow-through entity’s interest in the Certificate and (ii) a principal purpose of the use of the flow-through entity to hold the Certificate is to satisfy the 99 holder limitation set out above.

(c) At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Class (or Subclass) and aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange the Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the Certificates of such Class which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
