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 and Limitations on Transfer and Exchange of Certificates The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the [Owner Trustee] shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. _____________________________ shall be the initial Certificate Registrar. If the Certificate Registrar resigns or is removed, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor Certificate Registrar.

At the option of a Holder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled 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. No Person shall become a Certificateholder until it shall establish its non-foreign status by submitting to the Certificate Paying Agent an IRS Form W-9 and the Certificate of Non-Foreign Status set forth in Exhibit C hereto. (a) an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor certifying to the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor that such transferee is a "qualified institutional buyer" under Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or (b) solely with respect to the Designated Certificate, an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E), acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, which investment letters shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer or the Depositor and (ii) the Certificate of Non-Foreign Status (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, which certificate shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor. The Holder of a Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws. No transfer of a Certificate shall be made unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received either (i) a representation letter from the proposed transferee of such Certificate to the effect that such proposed transferee is not an employee benefit plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code, or a Person acting on behalf of any such plan or using the assets of any such plan, which representation letter shall not be an expense of the Trust, Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer or the Depositor or (ii) in the case of any such certificate presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a trustee of any such plan, or any other Person who is using the assets of any such plan to effect such acquisition, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and addressed and delivered to, the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Certificate will not result in the assets of the Owner Trust Estate being deemed to be "plan assets" and subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or the prohibited transaction provisions of the Code, will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 or Section 407 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and will not subject the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those explicitly undertaken in this Trust Agreement which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or Depositor.
Registration of Certificates (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be maintained in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.06 a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall act as, or shall appoint, a Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 5.06 (and subject to the provisions of this Section 5.02) the Trustee shall execute, and shall date, authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate) and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of a like aggregate principal portion or Percentage Interest and of the same Class. At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized Denominations of a like aggregate principal portion or Percentage Interest and of the same Class 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 shall date, authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate) and deliver, the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the 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. All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be canceled by the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent in accordance with their standard procedures. (b) No transfer of a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate shall be made unless the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable State securities laws are complied with, or such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements under said Act and laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from said Act or laws, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance on Rule 144A, the Trustee or the Seller may, if such transfer is to be made within three years after the later of (i) the date of the initial sale of Certificates or (ii) the last date on which the Seller or any affiliate thereof was a Holder of the Certificates proposed to be transferred, require a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificateholder to deliver a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Seller, to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer, and (ii) the Trustee shall require the transferee (other than an affiliate of the Seller on the Closing Date) to execute an investment letter in the form of Exhibit J hereto certifying to the Seller and the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer. The Holder of a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Seller, the Master Servicer and any Paying Agent acting on behalf of the Trustee against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

(c) No transfer of a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee and the Seller shall have received (i) a representation letter from the transferee in the form of Exhibit J hereto, to the effect that either (a) such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement subject to Title I of ERISA or Code Section 4975, or a governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, subject to any federal, state or local law ("Similar Law") which is to a material extent similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, a "Plan") and is not a person acting on behalf of or using the assets of any such Plan, which representation letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer or (b) if such transferee is an insurance company, (A) the source of funds used to purchase the Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate is an "insurance company general account" (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTE 95-60"), 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995)), (B) there is no Plan with respect to which the amount of such general account's reserves and liabilities for the contract(s) held by or on behalf of such Plan and all other Plans maintained by the same employer (or affiliate thereof as defined in Section V(a)(1) of PTE 95-60) or by the same employee organization exceeds 10% of the total of all reserves and liabilities of such general account (as such amounts are determined under Section I(a) of PTE 95-60) at the date of acquisition and (C) the purchase and holding of such Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate is covered by Sections I and III of PTE 95-60 or (ii) in the case of any such Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate presented for registration in the name of a Plan, or a trustee of any such Plan, (A) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the Seller to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate will not result in the assets of the Trust Estate being deemed to be "plan assets" and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, the Code or Similar Law and will not subject the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer and (B) such other opinions of counsel, officer's certificates and agreements as the Seller or the Master Servicer may require in connection with such transfer, which opinions of counsel, officers' certificates and agreements shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer. The Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates shall bear a legend referring to the foregoing restrictions contained in this paragraph. (d) No legal or beneficial interest in all or any portion of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate may be transferred directly or indirectly to a "disqualified organization" within the meaning of Code Section 860E(e)(5) or an agent of a disqualified organization (including a broker, nominee, or middleman), to a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of or investing the assets of a Plan (such Plan or Person, an "ERISA Prohibited Holder") or to an individual, corporation, partnership or other person unless such transferee (i) is not a Non-U.S. Person or (ii) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and has furnished the transferor and the Trustee with an effective Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or (iii) is a Non-U.S. Person that has delivered to both the transferor and the Trustee an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that the transfer of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate to it is in accordance with the requirements of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes (any such person who is not covered by clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above being referred to herein as a "Non-permitted Foreign Holder"), and any such purported transfer shall be void and have no effect. The Trustee shall not execute, and shall not authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate) and deliver, a new Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate in connection with any such transfer to a disqualified organization or agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman), an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder, and neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee shall accept a surrender for transfer or registration of transfer, or register the transfer of, the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate, unless the transferor shall have provided to the Trustee an affidavit, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit H hereto, signed by the transferee, to the effect that the transferee is not such a disqualified organization, an agent (including a broker, nominee, or middleman) for any entity as to which the transferee has not received a substantially similar affidavit, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder, which affidavit shall contain the consent of the transferee to any such amendments of this Agreement as may be required to further effectuate the foregoing restrictions on transfer of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate to disqualified organizations, ERISA Prohibited Holders or Non-permitted Foreign Holders. Such affidavit shall also contain the statement of the transferee that (i) the transferee has historically paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (ii) the transferee understands that it may incur liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (iii) the transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the residual interest as they become due and (iv) the transferee will not transfer the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate to any Person who does not provide an affidavit substantially in the form attached as Exhibit H hereto. The affidavit described in the preceding paragraph, if not executed in connection with the initial issuance of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate, shall be accompanied by a written statement in the form attached as Exhibit I hereto, signed by the transferor, to the effect that as of the time of the transfer, the transferor has no actual knowledge that the transferee is a disqualified organization, ERISA Prohibited Holder or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, and has no knowledge or reason to know that the statements made by the transferee with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the last sentence of the preceding paragraph are not true. The Class A-R and Class A-LR Certificates shall bear a legend referring to the foregoing restrictions contained in this paragraph and the preceding paragraph. Upon notice to the Master Servicer that any legal or beneficial interest in any portion of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate has been transferred, directly or indirectly, to a disqualified organization or agent thereof (including a broker, nominee, or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, (i) such transferee shall be deemed to hold the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate in constructive trust for the last transferor who was not a disqualified organization or agent thereof, and such transferor shall be restored as the owner of such Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate as completely as if such transfer had never occurred, provided that the Master Servicer may, but is not required to, recover any distributions made to such transferee with respect to the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate, and (ii) the Master Servicer agrees to furnish to the Internal Revenue Service and to any transferor of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate or such agent (within 60 days of the request therefor by the transferor or agent) such information necessary to the application of Code Section 860E(e) as may be required by the Code, including but not limited to the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such transfer. At the election of the Master Servicer, the cost to the Master Servicer of computing and furnishing such information may be charged to the transferor or such agent referred to above; however, the Master Servicer shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.
Registration and Transfer of Certificates (a) The Owner Trustee shall maintain at its office referred to in Section 2.02 hereof, or at the office of any agent appointed by it and approved in writing by the Owners at the time of such appointment, a register for the registration and transfer of Trust Certificates. No transfer of a beneficial interest in the Trust shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and state securities laws, or is exempt from the registration requirements under the 1933 Act and state securities laws. (b) The registered Owner of any Trust Certificate may transfer all or any portion of the beneficial interest in the Trust evidenced by such Trust Certificate upon surrender thereof to the Owner Trustee accompanied by the documents required by Section 3.04 and Section 3.06 hereof. Such transfer may be made by the registered Owner in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing upon surrender of the Trust Certificate to the Owner Trustee accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and with such signature guarantees and evidence of authority of the Persons signing the instrument of transfer as the Owner Trustee may reasonably require. Promptly upon the receipt of such documents and receipt by the Owner Trustee of the transferor’s Trust Certificate, the Owner Trustee shall record the name of such transferee as an Owner and its Ownership Percentage in the Trust Certificate register and issue, execute and deliver to such Owner a Trust Certificate evidencing such Ownership Percentage. In the event a transferor transfers only a portion of its beneficial interest in the Trust, the Owner Trustee shall register and issue, to such transferor a new Trust Certificate evidencing such transferor’s new Ownership Percentage. Subsequent to a transfer and upon the issuance of the new Trust Certificate or Trust Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall cancel and destroy the Trust Certificate surrendered to it in connection with such transfer. The Owner Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate is registered as the sole Owner of the beneficial interest in the Trust evidenced by such Trust Certificate. (c) As a condition precedent to any registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover the payment of any tax or taxes or other governmental charges required to be paid in connection with such transfer.

(d) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class B Certificate shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that a transfer of a Class B Certificate is to be made either (i)(A) the Trustee shall require a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer (except that, if such transfer is made by the Company or the Master Servicer or any Affiliate thereof, the Company or the Master Servicer shall provide such Opinion of Counsel at their own expense); provided that such Opinion of Counsel will not be required in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Company or any Affiliate thereof to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company and (B) the Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto, and the Trustee shall require the transferor to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee certifying to the Company and the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer; provided, however, that such representation letters will not be required in connection with any transfer of any such Certificate by the Company or any Affiliate thereof to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Trustee, shall be a written representation) from the Company, of the status of such transferee as an Affiliate of the Company or (ii) the prospective transferee of such a Certificate shall be required to provide the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer with an investment letter substantially in the form of Exhibit J attached hereto (or such other form as the Company in its sole discretion deems acceptable), which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer, and which investment letter states that, among other things, such transferee (A) is a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined under Rule 144A, acting for its own account or the accounts of other "qualified institutional buyers" as defined under Rule 144A, and (B) is aware that the proposed transferor intends to rely on the exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Rule 144A. The Holder of any such Certificate desiring to effect any such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Company, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws. (e) (i) In the case of any Class B or Class R Certificate presented for registration in the name of any Person, either (A) the Trustee shall require an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Class B or Class R Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), and will not subject the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer or (B) the prospective Transferee shall be required to provide the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer with a certification to the effect set forth in paragraph six of Exhibit H (with respect to any Class B Certificate) or paragraph fifteen of Exhibit G-1 (with respect to any Class R Certificate), which the Trustee may rely upon without further inquiry or investigation, or such other certifications as the Trustee may deem desirable or necessary in order to establish that such Transferee or the Person in whose name such registration is requested either (a) is not an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any Person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any such plan) who is using "plan assets" of any such plan to effect such acquisition (each, a "Plan Investor") or (b) in the case of any Class B Certificate, the following conditions are satisfied: (i) such Transferee is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds used to purchase or hold such Certificate (or interest therein) is an "insurance company general account" (as defined in U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and (iii) the conditions set forth in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied (each entity that satisfies this clause (b), a "Complying Insurance Company").
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.
Transfer and Exchange of Certificated Securities When Certificated Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request:
Transfer and Exchange of Certificates (a) A Certificate (other than Book-Entry Certificates which shall be subject to Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by such Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the transferee, one or more new Certificates of the same Class and evidencing, in the aggregate, the same aggregate Certificate Balance as the Certificate being transferred. No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of Certificates, but 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 registration of transfer of Certificates. (b) A Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any number of new Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations, representing in the aggregate the same Certificate Balance as the Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged at the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any exchange of Certificates, but 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 exchange of Certificates. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. (c) By acceptance of a Restricted Certificate, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth thereon and agrees that it will transfer such a Certificate only as provided herein. The following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of a Definitive Certificate: (i) The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate if the requested transfer is (x) to the Depositor or an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the 0000 Xxx) of the Depositor or (y) being made to a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act by a transferor that has provided the Certificate Registrar with a certificate in the form of Exhibit H hereto; and (ii) The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate if the requested transfer is being made to an “accredited investor” under Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act, or to any Person all of the equity owners in which are such accredited investors, by a transferor who furnishes to the Certificate Registrar a letter of the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto. (d) No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Definitive Certificate shall be made to any Person or shall be effective unless the Certificate Registrar, on behalf of the Trustee, has received (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto (or Exhibit B, in the case of a Residual Certificate) from such transferee or (B) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee to the effect that the purchase and holding of such a Certificate will not constitute or result in any nonexempt prohibited transactions under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the Depositor to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar will not require such certificate or opinion in the event that, as a result of a change of law or otherwise, counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar has rendered an opinion to the effect that the purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Plan or a Person that is purchasing or holding such a Certificate with the assets of a Plan will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the Depositor to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement. Each Transferee of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate shall be deemed to have made the appropriate representation set forth in paragraph 2 and the representation set forth in paragraph 3 of Exhibit J. The preparation and delivery of the certificate and opinions referred to above shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the Depositor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no opinion or certificate shall be required for the initial issuance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates to the Underwriter. The Certificate Registrar shall have no obligation to monitor transfers of Book-Entry Certificates that are ERISA-Restricted Certificates and shall have no liability for transfers of such Certificates in violation of the transfer restrictions. The Certificate Registrar shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(d) and neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any liability for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the foregoing requirements. The Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that was in fact a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of a Plan any payments made on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not such a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a Plan. (e) As a condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate, the Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer identification number of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall have no obligation to require such payment or to determine whether or not any such tax or charge may be applicable. No service charge shall be made to the Certificateholder for any registration, transfer or exchange of a Certificate. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Residual Certificate may be owned, pledged or transferred, directly or indirectly, by or to (i) a Disqualified Organization or (ii) an individual, corporation or partnership or other person unless such person (A) is not a Non-U.S. Person or (B) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds a Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and has furnished the transferor and the Certificate Registrar with an effective Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code (any such person who is not covered by clause (A) or (B) above is referred to herein as a “Non-permitted Foreign Holder”). Prior to and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B representing and warranting, among other things, that such transferee is neither a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee acting on behalf of a Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-permitted Foreign Holder (any such transferee, a “Permitted Transferee”), and the proposed transferor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. In addition, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may (but shall have no obligation to) require, prior to and as a condition of any such transfer, the delivery by the proposed transferee of an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, that such proposed transferee or, if the proposed transferee is an agent or nominee, the proposed beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder. Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale, or other disposition of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, such registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such Residual Certificate. The Depositor and the Certificate Registrar shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof or Non-permitted Foreign Holder or for the Trustee or the Paying Agent making any payments due on such Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of the Agreement, so long as the transfer was effected in accordance with this Section 3.03(f), unless the Certificate Registrar shall have actual knowledge at the time of such transfer or the time of such payment or other action that the transferee is a Disqualified Organization, or an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder. The Certificate Registrar shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder at the time it became a Holder or any subsequent time it became a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at and after either such times (and all costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith). Any payment (not including any such costs and expenses) so recovered by the Certificate Registrar shall be paid and delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Residual Certificate. If any purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f), then upon receipt of written notice to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 3.03(f), the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of such registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(f), or for the Trustee or the Paying Agent making any payment due on such Certificate to the registered Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in the preceding paragraph of this Section 3.03(f). (g) Each Holder or Certificate Owner of a Restricted Certificate, ERISA-Restricted Certificate or Residual Certificate, or an interest therein, by such Holder’s or Owner’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of this section. Neither the Certified Registrar nor the Trustee will have any responsibility for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of the Book-Entry Certificates or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or transfers thereof.
