The Owner Trust Administrator and its Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with any person party to a Related Agreement, any of its Affiliates and

consent of the Owner Trustee, and without the consent of the Noteholders or Certificateholders, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the Noteholders or Certificateholders; provided that no such amendment shall, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholders or Certificateholders whose consent
shall not have been obtained in respect thereof; provided further, that such action shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder and no Opinion of Counsel to that effect shall be required if the
Rating Agency Condition with respect to each Rating Agency is satisfied in respect of such action. This Agreement may also be amended by the Issuer, the Owner Trust Administrator and the Indenture Trustee with the written consent of the Owner
Trustee and of Noteholders evidencing at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes and Certificateholders evidencing at least a majority of the Certificate Percentage Interest for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in

corporation or other organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Owner Trust Administrator is bound hereunder and represents that it has the financial ability to satisfy its indemnification
obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trust Administrator can transfer its obligations to any Affiliate that succeeds to substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Owner Trust Administrator and who has
represented and warranted that it is not less creditworthy than the Owner Trust Administrator. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto.
