(f) Each Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan made by a Bank shall mature on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that any Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan which is outstanding on the Expiration Date shall be converted as of such day to, and be treated thereafter, for all purposes under this Liquidity Agreement as, a Refunding Loan. Any Loan so converted shall, thereafter, be a Base Rate Loan and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the spread specified in Section 3.07(d).

Section 3.03 Swingline Loans.

(a) Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions for a Revolving Loan (except for conditions relating to timing and notice), each Swingline Lender agrees to make its pro rata share of Swingline Loans to the Trust at any time and from time to time after the Effective Date and prior to the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (x) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $300,000,000 (or any Swingline Lender having an aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans exceeding $150,000,000) or (y) the sum of the outstanding Loans exceeding the Facility Amount; provided, that no Swingline Lender shall be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Trust may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000.

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Trust shall notify the Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Agent will promptly advise each Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Trust and its pro rata share of such Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Lender shall make its pro rata share of each Swingline Loan available to the Trust by means of a credit by the Swingline Lender in freely transferable U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds to the Collateral Account of the Trust by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) Any Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Banks to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of its Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Banks will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Agent will give notice thereof to each Bank, specifying in such notice such Bank’s Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Bank hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Agent, for the account of the applicable Swingline Lender, the product of (i) such Bank’s Percentage and (ii) the amount of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Bank shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 3.05 with respect to Loans made by such Bank (and Section 3.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Banks), and the Agent shall promptly pay to such Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Banks. The Agent shall notify the Trust of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Agent and not to the applicable Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by a Swingline Lender from the Trust (or other party on behalf of the Trust) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Agent; any such amounts received by the Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Banks that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Trust of any default in the payment thereof.

-23-

(d) Each Swingline Loan shall mature on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that any Swingline Loan which is outstanding on the Expiration Date shall be converted as of such day to, and be treated thereafter, for all purposes under this Liquidity Agreement as, a Refunding Loan. Any Loan so converted shall, thereafter, be a Base Rate Loan and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the spread specified in Section 3.07(d).

Section 3.04 Refunding Loans.

(a) Refunding Loans for Remaining Commercial Paper Deficits. If on any Business Day that Commercial Paper matures, the Trust does not issue additional Commercial Paper in an aggregate net amount sufficient to repay in full all Commercial Paper maturing on such day (the excess of the amount required to pay in full all Commercial Paper maturing on such day, including any interest due thereon, over the net amount obtained by the issuance of Commercial Paper on such day and the amount of funds to be applied from the Commercial Paper Account on such day, a “Commercial Paper Deficit”), the Trust shall request the Collateral Agent to transfer on such day funds to satisfy the Commercial Paper Deficit from the Collateral Account to the Commercial Paper Account on such day. The excess, if any, of the Commercial Paper Deficit for any day over the aggregate amount to be applied to the Commercial Paper Deficit from a transfer from the Collateral Account on such day, is referred to herein as the “Remaining Commercial Paper Deficit.” If on any Business Day that Commercial Paper matures, a Remaining Commercial Paper Deficit exists, each Bank shall, upon the request of the Trust or the Depositary, as attorney-in-fact for the Trust, and subject to the limitations imposed by Section 3.01, make a Refunding Loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to the product of such Bank’s Percentage and the Remaining Commercial Paper Deficit. The Trust agrees to give or cause the Depositary to give the Agent notice of a Remaining Commercial Paper Deficit on any such Business Day. Refunding Loans may only be used to repay matured or maturing Commercial Paper, including interest thereon, and may not be used to repay any amounts due and owing in respect of the MTNs, the Certificates or any other outstanding Loans.

(b) Procedures for Refunding Loans Under Section 3.04(a). The Trust or the Depositary as attorney-in-fact for the Trust, shall give the Agent, at its Notice Office, telephonic notice (confirmed in writing by a Notice of Borrowing), including the aggregate principal amount of the Refunding Loans required by Section 3.04(a). If such telephonic notice is received by the Agent prior to 12:00 noon (New York City time) on any Business Day, the Agent, prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), shall give each Bank written or telephonic notice (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter) of such request. If such written or telephonic notice is received by a Bank prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any such Business Day, such Bank’s pro rata portion of the requested Loans will be made on such Business Day. If such written or telephonic notice is not received by a Bank prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day, such Bank’s pro rata portion of the requested Loans will be made on the Business Day next succeeding the Business Day on which such Loan would have been made had such written or telephonic notice been given before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day.

-24-

(c) Failure to Fund. In the event that one or more Banks fails to fund its or their Percentage of the Refunding Loans to be made by the Banks by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, the Agent shall notify each of the other Banks not later than 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day and each of the other Banks shall, before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day, make available to the Agent in freely transferable U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds a Refunding Loan in a principal amount equal to the lesser of (x) the product of such unfunded amount and a fraction, the numerator of which is the Bank Commitment of such Bank and the denominator of which is the Facility Amount (less the sum of the Bank Commitments of the defaulting Banks) and (y) the Available Bank Commitment of such Bank. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds, the Agent shall remit the proceeds of such Refunding Loans by 5:15 p.m., New York City time, to the Commercial Paper Account maintained with the Depositary for application in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

(d) Conversion to Refunding Loans. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the written direction of the Required Banks and the Trust or upon the occurrence of any of the remedial actions in the context of an Event of Default as described in Section 9.01 (whether automatic or at the election of the Agent or the Required Banks), all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding shall be converted as of the day set forth therein to, and shall be treated thereafter, except as described in the following sentence, for all purposes under this Liquidity Agreement as, Refunding Loans. Any Loan so converted that is a Euro-Dollar Loan shall continue to bear interest at the Euro-Dollar Rate. Any Loan so converted that is not bearing interest at the Euro-Dollar Rate shall bear interest on and after the date following such conversion as if such Loan were a Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loan made on such date.

(e) Maturity. Each Refunding Loan shall mature on the date of any mandatory payment pursuant to Section 5.01; provided, that only the portion of such Refunding Loan required to be repaid pursuant to Section 5.01 on such date shall mature on such date, provided, further, that the final maturity date thereof shall be the Expiration Date. Any portion of a Refunding Loan outstanding as of the Expiration Date shall, thereafter, be a Base Rate Loan and bear interest at the Base Rate plus the spread specified in Section 3.07(d) hereof.

Section 3.05 Disbursement of Funds.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing for a Pro Rata Revolving Loan, each Bank will make available to the Agent in freely transferable U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds an amount equal to the product of (i) such Bank’s Percentage and (ii) the amount of such Pro Rata Revolving Loans required to be made on such date at the Payment Office (for the account of such non-U.S. office of the Agent as the Agent may direct if a Euro-Dollar Loan), and the Agent, by 3:30 p.m. (New York City time), shall remit the proceeds of such Pro Rata Revolving Loans to the Collateral Account maintained with the Collateral Agent for application in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement.

-25-

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing for a Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan, each Bank making such Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan will make available to the Agent in freely transferable U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds the amount of its Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan required to be made on such day at the Payment Office and the Agent, by 3:30 p.m. (New York City time), shall remit the proceeds of such Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan received by the Agent to the Collateral Account maintained with the Collateral Agent for application in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement.

(d) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing for a Refunding Loan provided for in Section 3.04(a), each Bank will make available to the Agent in freely transferable U.S. dollars and in immediately available funds an amount equal to the product of (i) such Bank’s Percentage and (ii) the amount of such Refunding Loans required to be made on such day at the Payment Office, and the Agent, by 3:30 p.m. (New York City time), shall remit the proceeds of such Refunding Loans to the Commercial Paper Account maintained with the Depositary for application in accordance with the terms of the Depositary Agreement.

(e) Unless the Agent shall have been notified in writing (which may be by telecopy) by any Bank prior to the date of any Borrowing (or in the case of a Borrowing with respect to a Base Rate Loan, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time on the date of such Borrowing) that such Bank will not make available the amount that would constitute its share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made or will make such amounts available to the Agent (or, in the case of Swingline Loans, has credited or will credit the Collateral Account of the Trust directly), and in reliance upon such assumption, the Agent may make available to the Trust or the Depositary a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have reimbursed the Agent, such Bank and the Trust severally agree to repay the Agent forthwith upon demand (delivered, in the case of the Trust, in accordance with the next succeeding sentence) such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Trust until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Trust, a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 3.07 and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate. Any such demand for payment shall be made first upon such Bank and, if such Bank shall have failed to repay such amount within two Euro-Dollar Business Days after such demand, then upon the Trust. If such Bank shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this Liquidity Agreement. Until either such Bank or the Trust repays such amount owing to the Agent, such advance made by the Agent shall be deemed to be a Loan made by the Agent for all purposes hereunder, earning interest as set forth in the third preceding sentence and shall be secured pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement.

Section 3.06 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Trust hereby unconditionally promises to pay the Agent for the account of each Bank (i) the full unpaid principal amount of each Pro Rata Revolving Loan on the dates and in the amounts as required pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement, (ii) the full unpaid principal amount of each Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan on the dates and in the amounts as required pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement, (iii) the full unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the dates and in the amounts as required pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement, and (iv) the full unpaid principal amount of each Refunding Loan on the dates and in the amounts as required pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement. The Trust hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to time outstanding from the date of each such Loan until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 3.07 hereof.

(b) Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Trust to such Bank resulting from each Loan of such Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time under this Liquidity Agreement.

(c) The Agent shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Bank Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Bank from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Trust, the Agent and the Banks may (and, in the case of any Loan or other obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Loan Note, shall) treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the maker of a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Liquidity Agreement and the other Program Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Loan Note shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register and, in any case, upon compliance with the provisions of Section 12.06. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Trust or any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Register shall include a subaccount for each Bank, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and, if applicable, each Monthly Term applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Trust to each Bank hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Trust and each Bank’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Bank maintained pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Trust therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank or the Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not adversely affect such Bank’s rights with respect to any Loans made or in any manner affect the obligation of the Trust to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Trust by such Bank in accordance with the terms of this Liquidity Agreement.

-27-

(e) The Trust agrees that, upon the request of the Agent, on behalf of any Bank that so requests, the Trust will execute and deliver to such Bank one note for Revolving Loans (a “Revolving Loan Note”), one note for Swingline Loans (a “Swingline Loan Note”) and one note for Refunding Loans (a “Refunding Loan Note”, and together with the Revolving Loan Note and the Swingline Loan Note, the “Loan Note”), each of which shall: (i) be dated the date hereof; (ii) be in the stated principal amount equal to the Bank Commitment of such Bank; (iii) bear interest as provided in Section 3.07; (iv) be payable to the order of such Bank; (v) be entitled to the benefits of this Liquidity Agreement and the Security Agreement; and (vi) for each of the Revolving Loan Notes, Swingline Loan Notes and Refunding Loan Notes, be substantially in the form of Exhibits A, B and C, respectively, to this Liquidity Agreement with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith. In the case of any Loan Note issued hereunder, the obligation of the Trust to pay principal and interest as described in Section 3.06(a) shall be represented by such Loan Note. Each Bank that has received a Loan Note shall, and is hereby authorized to, make a notation on the schedule attached to its applicable Loan Note of the date and the amount of such Revolving Loan, Swingline Loan or Refunding Loan and the date and amount of the payment of principal thereon and prior to any transfer of any of its Loan Notes, such Bank shall, and is hereby authorized to, endorse the outstanding principal amount of such Loan Note on the schedule attached thereto; provided, however, that failure to make such notation or endorsement shall not adversely affect such Bank’s rights with respect to such Loan or in any manner affect the obligation of the Trust to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Trust by such Bank in accordance with the terms of this Liquidity Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 3.06(d), the notations made on the schedule to each Loan Note by the applicable Bank shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Trust under such Loan Note. Although each Loan Note shall be dated the date hereof, interest in respect thereof shall be payable pursuant to a Loan Note only for the periods during which Loans are outstanding thereunder. In addition, although the stated principal amount of each Loan Note shall be equal to the Bank Commitment of the related Bank, each Loan Note shall be enforceable with respect to the Trust’s obligation to pay the principal thereof only to the extent of the unpaid principal amount of the Loans outstanding thereunder at the time such enforcement shall be sought.

Section 3.07 Interest Rates.

(a) Each Base Rate Loan (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made, interest being payable on the immediately following Distribution Date, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate, except that Swingline Loans shall bear interest at the effective Federal Funds Rate from time to time plus 1.00%, for each such day the Loan was outstanding from and including the preceding Distribution Date. Such interest shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on each Distribution Date for each day the Loan was outstanding on the outstanding principal amount thereof on each such day for the period commencing on the preceding Distribution Date and ending on the day preceding such Distribution Date.

-28-

(b) Each Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made until the immediately following Distribution Date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day, provided, however, that if such loan is made less than two Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to such immediately following Distribution Date, such Loan shall bear interest at the outstanding principal amount thereof for each day from the date such Loan is made until the second following Distribution Date at a rate equal to the Base Rate for such day and for each Interest Period thereafter shall bear interest on the outstanding principal balance thereof, for each day during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (1) the Euro-Dollar Margin plus (2) the Euro-Dollar Rate applicable to such Interest Period. Such interest shall be due and payable for such Interest Period on the last day thereof.

“Euro-Dollar Margin” means a rate per annum equal to 0.75%.

The “Euro-Dollar Rate” applicable to any Interest Period means the rate (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) determined by the Agent to be the rate of interest per annum for deposits in U.S. dollars for a period equal to the relevant Monthly Term quoted on Telerate Screen Page 3750 (or its successor if such page number changes) at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period. If no quotation is available on Telerate, the “Euro-Dollar Rate” shall mean the rate determined by the Agent to be the rate at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered by JPMC to first class banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period.

(c) Each Euro-Dollar Loan (other than a Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loan bearing interest at the Euro-Dollar Rate) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (1) the Euro-Dollar Margin plus (2) the Euro-Dollar Rate applicable to such Interest Period. Such interest shall be due and payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof.

(d) Any overdue principal of or interest on any Base Rate Loan, Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loan or Euro-Dollar Loan and any unpaid Commitment Fees shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, bear interest, payable on demand, for each day from and including the date payment thereof was due to but excluding the date of actual payment, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.50% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

(e) The Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Trust (by telecopy) and the Banks (by telex, telecopy or cable) of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Agent will, at the request of the Trust, furnish such additional information concerning the calculation of the interest rate on any Euro-Dollar Loan as the Trust may reasonably request.

(f) The Agent agrees to use its reasonable efforts to obtain quotations from JPMC in connection with the determination of the Euro-Dollar Rate for any date of determination for which no quotation is available on Telerate. If no quotation from JPMC is available or if it cannot furnish a quotation in a timely manner, the provisions of Section 10.01 shall apply.

-29-

Section 3.08 Method of Electing Interest Rates.

(a) The Pro Rata Revolving Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the rate for the Type specified by the Trust in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Trust may from time to time elect to change or continue the Type of interest rate borne by each Group of Pro Rata Revolving Loans, subject in each case to the provisions of Article X, as follows:

(i) if such Loans are Base Rate Loans, the Trust may elect to convert such Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans as of any Euro-Dollar Business Day and, absent such election, such Loans shall continue to be Base Rate Loans; or

(ii) if such Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the Trust may elect to convert such Loans to Base Rate Loans or elect to continue such Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, in each case effective on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans.

Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (a “Notice of Interest Rate Election”), to the Agent at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days before the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective. A Notice of Interest Rate Election may, if it so specifies, apply to only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Group of Loans; provided, that (i) such portion is allocated ratably among the Banks making the Loans comprising such Group on the basis of their respective Loan amounts and (ii) the portion to which such Notice of Interest Rate Election applies, and the remaining portion to which it does not apply, are each $5,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000.

(b) Each Notice of Interest Rate Election shall specify:

(i) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;

(ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of subsection (a) above;

(iii) if the Loans comprising such Group are to be converted, the new Type and, if such new Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the duration of the initial Monthly Term applicable thereto; and

(iv) if such Loans are to be continued as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, the duration of the additional Monthly Term applicable thereto.

Each Monthly Term specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the provisions of the definition of Monthly Term.

-30-

(c) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice whether or not later confirmed in writing by a Notice of Borrowing) or a Notice of Interest Rate Election from the Trust pursuant to subsection (a) above, such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Trust, and the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof. If the Trust fails to deliver a timely Notice of Interest Rate Election to the Agent for any Group of Euro-Dollar Loans, such Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

(d) An election by the Trust to change or continue the rate of interest applicable to any Group of Loans pursuant to this Section 3.08 shall not constitute the making of a Pro Rata Revolving Loan subject to the provisions of Section 6.02.

(e) This Section 3.08 shall not apply to Swingline Loans or Refunding Loans, which may not be converted.

Section 3.09 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest based on the Base Rate or, with respect to Swingline Loans, the Federal Funds Rate hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

Section 3.10 Pro Rata Borrowings. All Pro Rata Revolving Loans and Refunding Loans shall be made by the Banks simultaneously and in such amount as necessary so that after giving effect thereto (and calculated assuming no default by any Bank in its obligation to make such Loans) the total outstanding Pro Rata Revolving Loans and Refunding Loans of each Bank shall bear the same proportion to all outstanding Loans of all Banks (other than Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loans) as such Bank’s Percentage bears to 100%. It is understood that, other than as provided in Section 3.04(c), no Bank shall be responsible for any default by any other Bank in its obligations to make Loans hereunder and it is understood that each Bank shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Bank to fulfill its commitment hereunder.

Section 3.11 Funding Losses. If the Trust makes any payment of principal with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan or any Euro-Dollar Loan is converted to a Base Rate Loan on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or if the Trust fails to borrow, convert or prepay any Euro-Dollar Loans after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with Section 3.02, 3.08 or 5.01(b), respectively, the Trust shall reimburse each Bank as set forth below for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it, including (without limitation) any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or conversion or failure to borrow or prepay; provided, that such Bank shall have used its reasonable efforts to reduce or avoid such loss or expense; provided further, that such Bank shall have delivered to the Trust and the Agent a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense and showing, in reasonable detail, the calculations employed by such Bank to determine the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error; provided further, that such loss shall in no event exceed the interest which would have been payable for the balance of such Interest Period or other period, less the applicable Euro-Dollar Margin. Amounts payable to any Bank pursuant to this Section 3.11 shall be paid (x) if such demand has been made on or before the last Business Day of the calendar month in which such amount arose, on the Distribution Date occurring in the immediately succeeding calendar month and (y) if such demand is made after the last Business Day in the calendar month in which such amount arose, on the Distribution Date occurring in the calendar month after the month in which the demand was made.

-31-

Section 3.12 Taxes.

(a) All payments of principal, interest and fees to be made by the Trust or the Agent (in respect of such amounts received by it from the Trust) pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement to any Bank (or Participant thereof) with respect to any Loan or fee shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future income, excise, or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, or fees of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any governmental or other taxing authority excluding any franchise taxes and any taxes on or measured by overall net income, gross receipts, general assets or capital (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, “Taxes”), unless the withholding or other payment of such Taxes is required by applicable law. In the event that the Trust or the Agent is required by applicable law to make any such withholding or deduction of Taxes with respect to any Loan or fee, the Trust shall pay to such Agent or Bank (or Participant thereof) additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amount received by such Agent or Bank (or Participant thereof) after the required withholding or other payment (including any required withholding or other payment on such additional amounts) shall equal the amount such Agent or Bank (or Participant thereof) would have received had no such withholding or other payment been made; provided, however, that no such additional amounts shall be paid by the Trust:

(i) except on account of Taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision, possession, territory or taxing authority thereof or therein); and

(ii) on account of any federal withholding tax imposed by the United States (“United States Tax”):

(1) if such Bank or Participant of such Bank shall have delivered Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (“Form W-8ECI”) to the Trust pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 3.12 and such Bank or Participant shall at any time not be entitled to complete exemption from United States Tax for any reason other than a change in United States federal income tax law, regulation or official interpretation of such law after the date hereof (or in the case of any Assignee or Participant, the date of the relevant assignment or participation agreement);

(2) if such Bank or Participant of such Bank shall have delivered Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (“Form W-8BEN”) to the Trust pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 3.12 and such Bank or Participant shall at any time not be entitled to complete exemption from United States Tax for any reason other than (i) an amendment, modification or revocation of an applicable income tax convention or a change in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such treaty after the date hereof (or in the case of any Assignee or Participant, the date of the relevant assignment or participation agreement) or (ii) a change in United States federal income tax law, regulation or official interpretation of such law after the date hereof (or in the case of any Assignee or Participant, the date of the relevant assignment or participation agreement); or

-32-

(3) if such Bank or Participant of such Bank shall have failed to comply with its obligations pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 3.12.

In addition, as a condition to such payment of additional amounts by the Trust, such Bank shall provide the Trust and the Agent with evidence satisfactory to them of the imposition of such payment, together with the calculation of the amounts payable thereunder. Furthermore, if pursuant to this Section 3.12 any Bank receives an increased payment with respect to Taxes, and such Bank also recovers any portion of such Taxes from the applicable taxing authority such that the total amount of the payments and the recovered Taxes exceeds the amount stated to be payable with respect to the Bank, such Bank shall remit any such excess to the Trust and the Agent.

(b) Each Bank that is a Non-U.S. Bank hereby severally covenants and agrees to and for the benefit of the Trust and the Agent that:

(i) at, or prior to, the Effective Date, such Non-U.S. Bank shall have delivered to both the Trust and the Agent either:

(i) before or promptly after the date on which any form previously delivered by such Bank pursuant to Section 3.12(b) may no longer be relied upon by the Trust and the Agent as a result of an act by such Bank, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI (or such additional or successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities), appropriately completed and claiming complete exemption from withholding and deduction of United States Taxes, to replace the like form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Bank; and

(ii) if any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Bank pursuant to Section 3.12(b) may no longer be relied upon by the Trust and the Agent for any reasons (other than as a result of an act by the Bank), two accurate and complete original signed copies of Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN, as the case may be (or such additional or successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities), appropriately completed and claiming complete exemption from withholding and deduction of United States Taxes, as the Trust or the Agent may reasonably request.

Notwithstanding the foregoing subsections (b)(ii), (c)(i) and (c)(ii) of this Section 3.12, a Non-U.S. Bank shall not be required to provide a form if due to any change in treaty, law or regulation or official interpretation that occurred after the date hereof (or, in the case of any Non-U.S. Bank that is an Assignee or a Participant complying with subsections (b)(ii), (c)(i) and (c)(ii) of this Section 3.12 pursuant to Section 12.06(b) or 12.06(c), the date of the relevant assignment or participation agreement) and prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required, all such forms are inapplicable or such Bank is not entitled to any exemption from the United States Tax as claimed in the form previously delivered. In any such case, each Non-U.S. Bank shall provide such forms as the Trust or the Agent may reasonably request to establish entitlement, if any, to any reduction in United States Tax to which such Bank may be entitled from and after the occurrence of any such change in treaty, law or regulation.

(d) In the event that the Trust is required to pay an additional amount pursuant to Section 3.12(a) to any Bank, the Trust shall have the rights set forth in Section 4.04. The agreements in this Section 3.12 shall survive the termination of this Liquidity Agreement and the payment of the Loans, and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 3.13 Regulation D Compensation. For so long as any Bank is required to maintain reserves against “Eurocurrency liabilities” (or any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Euro-Dollar Loans is determined or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of such Bank to United States residents), and, as a result, the cost to such Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) of making or maintaining its Euro-Dollar Loans is increased, then such Bank may require the Trust to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on the Euro-Dollar Loans, additional interest on the related Euro-Dollar Loan of such Bank at a rate per annum up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable Euro-Dollar Rate divided by (B) one minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the applicable Euro-Dollar Rate. Any Bank wishing to require payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Trust and the Agent, in which case such additional interest on the Euro-Dollar Loans of such Bank shall be payable to such Bank at the place indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y) shall furnish to the Trust at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to each date on which interest is payable on the Euro-Dollar Loans an officer’s certificate setting forth the amount to which such Bank is then entitled under this Section (which shall be consistent with such Bank’s good faith estimate of the level at which the related reserves are maintained by it). Each such certificate shall be accompanied by such information as the Trust may reasonably request as to the computation set forth therein.

Such termination of the Commitment or reduction of the Facility Amount shall be effective on the scheduled date specified in the Trust’s notice; provided, however, that no termination of the Commitment in its entirety shall be effective if, on the scheduled date thereof, any Commercial Paper would remain outstanding after such scheduled date, in which case such termination shall be effective on the first Business Day on which no Commercial Paper shall be outstanding; provided further, however, that no such partial reduction shall be effective if on the scheduled date thereof, after giving effect to all transactions to occur on such day, the sum of the Credits Outstanding on such day (minus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loans on such day) plus the Interest Component on such day, would exceed the Facility Amount as so reduced.

(b) The Facility Amount shall be permanently reduced on the day any Refunding Loan made pursuant to Section 3.04(a), 3.04(c) or 3.04(d) is repaid pursuant to Section 5.01 to the extent of such repayment (except repayments made pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(ii) or repayments made through the issuance of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans).

Section 4.03 Increase of Commitment.

(a) The Trust may, with the consent of the Agent, amend this Liquidity Agreement to increase the Facility Amount and add additional Persons as Banks or to increase the Bank Commitments of consenting Banks (including on a non-pro rata basis); provided, however, the Facility Amount shall in no event exceed $2,250,000,000 without the consent of the Required Banks; provided further, however, that no increase in the Commitment may be made unless after giving effect to such increase (i) the aggregate Principal Amount of all outstanding Series of Certificates plus the amount on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account, if any, shall equal at least the Required Enhancement Amount and (ii) the maximum aggregate notional amount of the Interest Rate Swaps shall be at least equal to the Program Size; provided finally, however, that the Bank Commitment of a Bank may only be increased with the consent of such Bank. Prior to adding additional Persons as Banks in connection with an increase in the Facility Amount, the Trust shall obtain written confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies that such addition shall not cause the reduction or withdrawal of any rating on the Commercial Paper.

(b) The Trust shall not increase the Facility Amount pursuant to Section 4.03(a) unless any Downgraded Bank that has not been required to make a Non-Pro Rata Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 3.02(c) has been replaced pursuant to Section 4.04.

(c) The Trust may, at its option, from time to time request that the Banks agree to increase their Commitments by an aggregate amount specified by the Trust, which aggregate amount will be allocated ratably among the Banks, based on their then-existing Commitments (as to each Bank, its “Requested Ratable Increase”). If any Bank declines to increase its Commitment by its Requested Ratable Increase, the remaining Banks will have the option to increase their Commitments by a ratable portion (based on the then-existing Commitments of the Banks electing such option) of such declining Bank’s Requested Ratable Increase. Any such increase in the Commitments of one or more Banks will not result in an extension of the Expiration Date.

In the event of a replacement of a Bank pursuant to this Section, such replaced Bank shall assign its rights and obligations hereunder to a replacement bank selected by the Trust upon payment by the replacement bank to such Bank of such Bank’s outstanding Loans and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, accrued Commitment Fee and any other amounts owed to such Bank and to execute and deliver such documents evidencing such assignment as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Trust and the Agent. If a replacement bank is added as a Bank pursuant to clause (i) above in place of a Downgraded Bank whose Bank Commitment has been reduced to zero pursuant to Section 4.02(d), the Bank Commitment of the replacement Bank shall, subject to the limitations contained in Section 4.03, be the amount set forth in the documents evidencing such assignment referred to in the preceding sentence. Prior to adding any replacement bank as a Bank under this Section 4.04, the Rating Agencies shall receive notice of such replacement and the replacement bank shall have (i) paid to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such replacement in the amount of $2,500 and (ii) delivered an opinion or officer’s certificate, as determined by the Rating Agencies, regarding the enforceability of the Liquidity Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Rating Agencies.

Each Bank shall respond to such request within 20 days of receipt thereof. If one or more Banks fails to respond affirmatively to such request within 20 days of receipt thereof (each such Bank, a “Non-Renewing Bank”), the Trust may replace such Bank in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04. Any affirmative response by a Bank shall constitute the binding obligation of such Bank to fulfill all of its obligations hereunder until such extended Expiration Date. The Trust shall provide prior written notice of each Non-Renewing Bank to the Rating Agencies. It shall be a condition to the effectiveness of each extension that (i) the respective terms of the Program Documents shall each extend or be extended to a date on or after such Expiration Date, (ii), if the Facility Amount after such extension shall be less than $1,000,000,000, the Required Banks shall have consented to such extension and (iii) at the time of request for, and the effectiveness of, such extension, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Section 10.01 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair

. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan:

(a) the Agent is unable to determine the Euro-Dollar Rate by reference to Telerate and thereafter is advised by JPMC that deposits in dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered thereby for such Monthly Term; or

(b) Banks having an aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans and Available Bank Commitments equal to 50% or more of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans and Available Bank Commitments of all Banks advise the Agent that the Euro-Dollar Rate as determined by the Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding their Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest Period; the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Trust and the Banks, whereupon until the Agent notifies the Trust that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Banks to make Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans and Euro-Dollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans, shall be suspended and (ii) each outstanding Euro-Dollar Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto. Unless the Trust notifies the Agent at least one Business Day before the date of any Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loan or Euro-Dollar Loan to be made for which a Notice of Interest Rate Election has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Base Rate Loan.

-59-

Section 10.02 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Liquidity Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans and Euro-Dollar Loans and such Bank shall so notify the Agent, the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Banks and the Trust, whereupon until such Bank notifies the Trust and the Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Bank to make Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans and Euro-Dollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans, shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 10.02, such Bank shall take reasonable steps with the consent of the Trust (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), including without limitation the designation of a different Euro-Dollar Lending Office (unless such designation will, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank), if such reasonable steps would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any payment that would otherwise be due under this Section 10.02. If such notice is given (i) the Trust shall be entitled upon its request to a reasonable explanation of the factors underlying such notice and (ii) each Euro-Dollar Loan of such Bank then outstanding shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (a) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loan if such Bank may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan to such day or (b) immediately if such Bank shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan to such day.

Section 10.03 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) In the event that after the date hereof the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance by any Bank with any request or directive after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:

(i) does or shall subject such Bank to any additional tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Liquidity Agreement, any Loan Note or any Euro-Dollar Loan made by it, or change the basis or the applicable rate of taxation of payments to such Bank of principal, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except for (A) the imposition of or change in any franchise taxes and any taxes on or measured by overall net income, gross receipts, general assets or capital, (B) the imposition of or change in any United States Tax described in Section 3.12(a) in respect of which the Trust is not obligated to pay an additional amount by reason of the proviso to Section 3.12(a) or (C) the imposition of or change in any tax imposed by any governmental or other taxing authority of or in any jurisdiction other than the United States);

-60-

(ii) does or shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, insurance assessment, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Bank which are not otherwise included in the determination of the rate of interest on Euro-Dollar Loans hereunder; or

(iii) does or shall impose on such Bank any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank of making or maintaining Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any Loan, then, in any such case, the Trust shall pay such Bank any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable which such Bank deems to be material as determined by such Bank with respect to its Euro-Dollar Loans. Amounts payable to such Bank pursuant to this Section 10.03(a) shall be paid (y) if such demand has been made on or before the last Business Day of the calendar month in which such amount arose, on the first Distribution Date occurring in the immediately succeeding calendar month and (z) if such demand is made after the last Business Day in the calendar month in which such amount arose, on the Distribution Date occurring in the next succeeding calendar month after the month in which the demand was made.

(b) If any Bank shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, the Trust shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction. Amounts payable to such Bank pursuant to this Section 10.03(b) shall be paid (y) if such demand has been made on or before the last Business Day of the calendar month in which such amount arose, on the Distribution Date occurring in the immediately succeeding calendar month and (z) if such demand is made after the last Business Day in the calendar month in which such amount arose, on the Distribution Date occurring in the next succeeding calendar month after the month in which the demand was made.

(c) Each Bank shall promptly notify the Trust and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 10.03. Before giving any notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 10.03, such Bank shall take reasonable steps with the consent of the Trust (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), including without limitation designation of a different Applicable Lending Office (unless such designation will, in the judgment of the Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank), if such reasonable steps would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any payment that would otherwise be due under this Section 10.03. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section 10.03 and setting forth in reasonable detail its computation of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 10.03, the Trust shall only be obligated to compensate any Bank for any amount arising or accruing both:

-61-

(i) during (A) any time or period commencing (x) in the case of subsection (a), not earlier than the first day of any Interest Period in effect on the date which, and (y) in the case of subsection (b), not earlier than the date on which, such Bank notifies the Agent and the Trust that it proposes to demand such compensation and identifies to the Agent and the Trust the statute, regulation or other basis upon which the claimed compensation is or will be based, and (B) any time or period during which, because of the retroactive application of such statute, regulation or other basis, such Bank did not know that such amount would arise or accrue; and

(ii) within six months prior to any demand therefor, accompanied by a certificate of such Bank claiming compensation and setting forth in reasonable detail its computation of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 10.03 shall survive the termination of this Liquidity Agreement and payment of the outstanding amounts due under the Loans (and any related Loan Notes).

Section 10.04 Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Euro-Dollar Loans. If (i) the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 10.02 or (ii) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 10.03(a) and the Trust shall, by at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days’ prior notice to such Bank through the Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section 10.04 shall apply to such Bank, then unless and until such Bank notifies the Trust that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer apply:

(a) all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Bank as Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans or continued as Euro-Dollar Loans or converted into Euro-Dollar Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Base Rate/Euro-Dollar Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, as applicable, of the other Banks), and

(b) after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans has been repaid (or converted to a Base Rate Loan), all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such Euro-Dollar Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans instead.

If such Bank notifies the Trust that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted into a Euro-Dollar Loan, as the case may be, on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks.

Each Bank agrees that, if it shall, by exercising any other right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to any Loan made by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Bank in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to any Loan made by such other Bank, the Bank receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Loans made by the other Banks, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Loans made by the Banks shall be shared by the Banks pro rata; provided, that nothing in this Section 12.04 shall impair the right of any Bank to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Trust other than its indebtedness under the Loans. The Trust agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Loan, whether or not acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Trust in the amount of such participation.

Section 12.05 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Liquidity Agreement or any Loan Notes may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Trust and the Required Banks (and, if the rights or duties of the Agent are affected thereby, by the Agent); provided,

(a) that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all the Banks (i) increase or decrease the Bank Commitment of any Bank (except for a ratable decrease in the Bank Commitments of all Banks) or subject any Bank to any additional obligation (such changes to be subject to Section 4.03), (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder or for the termination of any Bank Commitment, (iv) change the definition of Percentage, Facility Amount, Controlling Majority or Required Banks, (v) change the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, (vi) change any of the conditions to the issuance of Commercial Paper set out in Section 2.01(c), 2.01(d) or the making of Loans set out in Section 3.01, or (vii) change any provision of this Section 12.05 or Section 4.05, 5.01, 6.02, 6.03, 8.09, 9.01 or 12.06 or Article X;

-66-

(b) that the Banks shall not waive any of the provisions of Section 6.02(b) with respect to the issuance of Commercial Paper unless the Trust shall have received prior written confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies that such waiver shall not result in a reduction or withdrawal of its then current rating, if any, of the Commercial Paper, the MTNs or the Certificates;

(c) that the Trust shall not amend or waive any provision of this Liquidity Agreement without having given prior notice thereof to the Rating Agencies and, with respect to any such amendment or waiver, without the prior written confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies that such amendment or waiver would not result in the reduction or withdrawal of its then current rating, if any, of the Commercial Paper, the MTNs or the Certificates;

(d) that the Trust may amend this Liquidity Agreement without such confirmation from any of the Rating Agencies for one or more of the following purposes: (i) to add to the covenants and agreements pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement for the benefit of the holders of the Commercial Paper; (ii) to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision contained in this Liquidity Agreement or in any amendment to this Liquidity Agreement; (iii) to add such provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Liquidity Agreement as may be necessary or desirable and not inconsistent with this Liquidity Agreement; or (iv) to extend the Expiration Date pursuant to Section 4.06 to a later date (it being understood that such extension is governed by Section 4.06 and not by any requirement of this Section 12.05); provided, however, such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any of the holders of the Commercial Paper and the Trust shall have given prior written notice to the Rating Agencies; and

(e) that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.05 other than clause (c) above, this Liquidity Agreement may be further amended and/or restated in its entirety effective contemporaneously with the occurrence of the Expiration Date currently in effect immediately prior to such amendment and/or restatement if such amendment and/or restatement is in writing and signed by the Trust, the Agent, the Banks which elect to extend, continue and renew their Commitments under this Liquidity Agreement, as amended and/or restated, and any additional banks which shall so qualify and elect to make a Commitment pursuant to this Liquidity Agreement, as amended and/or restated, and such Liquidity Agreement, as amended and/or restated, shall not require the signature of any Bank which does not choose to extend, continue and renew its Commitment under such amended and/or restated Liquidity Agreement; provided, that to the extent any such non-signatory Bank is owed any fees hereunder or interest and/or principal in respect of Loans outstanding hereunder then all such amounts owed to such Bank by the Trust shall have been paid in full by the Trust on or prior to the date of such amendment and/or restatement (as evidenced by a certificate of the Administrator) and; provided, further, that such Bank shall have no rights or obligations under this Liquidity Agreement as thereafter amended and/or restated other than those rights that would otherwise expressly survive the termination of this Liquidity Agreement prior to its amendment and/or restatement.

-67-

By their execution of this Liquidity Agreement, each Bank and the Agent hereby consent to the amendment to each Interest Rate Swap dated as of the date hereof.

Section 12.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Liquidity Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Trust may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Liquidity Agreement without first obtaining (i) the written consent of all Banks and (ii) the written confirmation of each of the Rating Agencies that such assignment will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of its then current rating, if any, of the Commercial Paper, and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void ab initio.

(b) Any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Bank Commitment or any or all of its Loans; provided that, if such Participant is not a U.S. Person, such Participant will furnish to the Trust a Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN prior to the effective date of such grant. In the event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, such Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Trust and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Liquidity Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Trust hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Liquidity Agreement and that the Participant shall be subject to Sections 12.15, 12.16 and 12.21; provided, that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Liquidity Agreement described in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 12.05(a) without the consent of the Participant; provided, further, that the Trust shall be obligated to indemnify such Participant for all amounts under Sections 3.12 and 3.13 as if such Participant were a Bank hereunder, but only in an amount not in excess of the amounts that would have been owing thereunder to the Bank which shall have granted such participation had such participation not been granted. In granting any participation, the Bank certifies, represents and warrants that such Bank will receive from the Participant and provide to the Agent, and the Agent will provide to the Trust, the forms described in Section 3.12 as though the Participant were a Bank, and such Bank and Agent similarly will provide subsequent forms as described Section 3.12 with respect to such Participant as though it were a Bank. The Trust agrees that each Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled to the benefits of Article X with respect to its participating interest. If, pursuant to this Section 12.06(b), any interest in this Liquidity Agreement or any Loan and any related Loan Note is proposed to be transferred to any Participant that is not a bank organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia, such proposed Participant shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of such transfer, (i) deliver Internal Revenue Service forms as provided in Section 3.12(b) to the transferor Bank with copies to the Trust and the Agent and (ii) make the covenants specified in Sections 3.12(b) and (c) for the benefit of the transferor Bank, the Trust and the Agent. All such covenants shall be made by an instrument in writing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trust.

-68-

(c) Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more banks or other institutions having a short-term debt rating, in the case of any bank, of A-1 or better from S&P, P-1 from Xxxxx’x and F1 or better from Fitch and a short-term debt rating, in the case of any other institution, of A-1 or better from S&P, P-1 from Xxxxx’x and, if rated by Fitch, F1 or better from Fitch (each such bank or other institution, an “Assignee”), all, or a proportionate part of all (such proportionate part to comprise a Bank Commitment of not less than $15,000,000), of its rights and obligations under this Liquidity Agreement and any Loans or Loan Notes, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto executed by such Assignee and such transferor Bank, with (and subject to) the written consent of the Trust and the Agent (which consents of the Agent and the Trust shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that no such consent shall be required in connection with an assignment to an Affiliate of such transferor Bank and no such consent of the Trust shall be required if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed to between such transferor Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Bank party to this Liquidity Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank with a Bank Commitment as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Bank, the Agent and the Trust shall make appropriate arrangements so that (i) if the Assignee assumes all of the transferor Bank’s Bank Commitment and the Assignee requests that a Loan Note be issued, a new Loan Note is issued to the Assignee or (ii) if the transferor Bank assigns a portion of its Bank Commitment to the Assignee and if either or both of the transferor Bank and the Assignee request that a Loan Note be issued, a new Loan Note is issued to each such requesting party and the Agent shall otherwise make appropriate notations in the Register evidencing the interest of each such non-requesting party and, in the case of either (i) or (ii) above, the old Loan Note, if any, is returned to the Trust for cancellation. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Bank shall pay to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $2,500. If the Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to the Trust and the Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 3.12. The Agent shall give the Rating Agencies notice of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.06(c) and the Assignee shall deliver an opinion or officer’s certificate, as determined by the Rating Agencies, regarding the enforceability of the Liquidity Agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the Rating Agencies) prior to any such assignment.

(d) In no event shall the granting of a participation pursuant to Section 12.06(b) or an assignment pursuant to Section 12.06(c) be effective if such granting of a participation or assignment would cause the number of Banks (including Assignees and Participants to equal a number greater than the difference between (i) ninety-five (95) and (ii) the number of holders of Certificates).

-69-

(e) Any Bank may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Liquidity Agreement and any Loan or Loan Note, as applicable, to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder.

(f) No Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 10.03 than the relevant transferor Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred. No Assignee or other transferee of any Bank’s rights (other than a Participant whose rights shall be governed by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 10.03 than such Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made (i) with the Trust’s prior written consent, (ii) by reason of the provisions of Section 10.02 or 10.03 requiring such Bank to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or (iii) at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.

Section 12.07 Collateral. Each of the Banks represents to the Agent and each of the other Banks that it in good faith is not relying upon any “margin stock” (as defined in Regulation U) as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Liquidity Agreement.

Section 12.08 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties contained in Article VII shall survive the execution and delivery of this Liquidity Agreement and any Loan Notes issued pursuant to Section 3.06(e) and shall continue only so long as and until such time as all indebtedness hereunder and under the Commercial Paper, the Loans and any such Loan Notes shall have been paid in full and the Commitment shall have been terminated hereunder.

Section 12.09 GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS LIQUIDITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LIQUIDITY AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS TO PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS LIQUIDITY AGREEMENT, OR ANY DOCUMENT DELIVERED PURSUANT HERETO BY THE MAILING OF A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO ITS RESPECTIVE ADDRESS SPECIFIED AT THE TIME FOR NOTICES UNDER THIS LIQUIDITY AGREEMENT OR TO ANY OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH IT SHALL HAVE GIVEN WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE OTHER PARTIES. THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT LIMIT THE ABILITY OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO BRING SUIT IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

Section 12.11 Restrictions on Transfers.

Each Bank agrees that it will not transfer all or any portion of the indebtedness with respect to the Loans or any Loan Note held by it, as applicable, or any participation therein, in violation of applicable securities laws.

Section 12.12 Confidentiality.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any party hereto may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the U.S. federal income tax treatment and U.S. federal income tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind that are provided hereunder relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.
