(the “Administrator”) and Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, successor by merger to Banc of America Securities LLC (the “Remarketing Agent”).

The Remarketing Agent will attempt, on a reasonable efforts basis, to remarket the validly tendered Notes at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount so tendered. There is no assurance that the Remarketing Agent will be able to remarket the entire principal amount of Notes tendered in a remarketing. The Remarketing Agent shall also have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase any tendered Notes at such price. The option of the Remarketing Agent to purchase tendered Notes from the tendering Class A-4 Noteholders will be subject, without limitation, to the conditions set forth in Section 8 of the Remarketing Agreement.
The Administrator covenants with the Remarketing Agent that, with respect to the Reset Date specified below, it shall prepare and file with the Commission and furnish to the Remarketing Agent a free-writing prospectus containing disclosure of the current ratings for the Notes and meeting the requirements of the 1933 Act (the “Free-Writing Prospectus”). The parties further agree that the Free-Writing Prospectus shall constitute a “Remarketing Material” as such term is defined in the Remarketing Agreement.
The Remarketing Agent represents and agrees that:
·
|
it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom;
|
·
|
in relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), the Remarketing Agent represents and agrees that with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “Relevant Implementation Date”) it has not made and will not make an

offer of the Notes which are the subject of the offering contemplated by the Remarketing Agreement to the public in that Relevant Member State other than:
(a) to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;
(b) to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive; or
(c) in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive,
provided that no such offer of Notes referred to in (a), (b) or (c) above shall require the Trust or the Remarketing Agent to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive. For the purposes of the foregoing, the expression “an offer of Notes to the public” in relation to any Notes in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Notes, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended, including Directive 2010/73/EU), and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State.
