(b) Each Purchaser agrees that it may only make offers and sales of the VMTP Shares in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws (1)(i) to Persons that it reasonably believes are QIBs that are (a) registered closed-end management investment companies, the shares of which are traded on a national securities exchange, and registered open-end management investment companies, in each case that (X) are either sponsored or managed by an entity listed on Schedule 2 or any other entity that is controlled by, controlling or under common control with an entity listed on Schedule 2 and (Y) invest primarily in municipal obligations (each, a “Registered Investment Company”); (b) banks or entities that are 100% direct or indirect subsidiaries of banks’ publicly traded parent holding companies (collectively, “Banks”); or (c) insurance companies, in each case, pursuant to Rule 144A or another available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, in a manner not involving any public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, (ii) to tender option bond trusts that are not covered funds under Section 13 of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, in which all investors are Persons that such Purchaser reasonably believes are QIBs that are Registered Investment Companies, Banks or insurance companies (or, in the case of a tender option bond trust in which an affiliate of the Purchaser retains a residual interest, an affiliate of the Purchaser that is a wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation) or (iii) to other investors with the prior written consent of the Issuer and (2) unless the prior written consent of the Issuer and the Majority Participants has been obtained, not to Neuberger Persons if such Neuberger Persons would, after such sale and transfer, own more than 20% of the Outstanding VMTP Shares. Any transfer in violation of the foregoing restrictions shall be void ab initio. In the event that a Purchaser intends to transfer the VMTP Shares, that Purchaser shall provide written notice to the Fund, which notice shall be signed by such Purchaser, indicating the Purchaser’s intent to transfer the VMTP Shares and the name of the intended transferee at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the transfer. In connection with any transfer of the VMTP Shares, each transferee (including, in the case of a tender option bond trust, the depositor or trustee or other Person thereunder acting on behalf of such transferee) will be required to deliver to the Issuer a transferee certificate set forth as Exhibit C to this Agreement no later than the date of the transfer. The foregoing restrictions on transfer shall not apply to any VMTP Shares registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or any subsequent transfer of such registered VMTP Shares thereafter.

(c) In the event that a Purchaser transfers, in accordance with Section 2.1(b), VMTP Shares to a tender option bond trust in which such Purchaser retains a residual interest, for so long as no event has occurred that results in the termination of such tender option bond trust, for purposes of each of the Applicable Sections (as defined below) that requires, permits or provides for (i) notice or the delivery of information to or (ii) voting of the VMTP Shares or the giving of any consent by or (iii) payment of fees, in each case, to such Purchaser or the Majority Participants, such Purchaser, and not such tender option bond trust, shall be deemed to be the actual owner of such VMTP Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, the deemed ownership provided for in this Section 2.1(c) shall be limited to the following sections of this Agreement: 2.1(b), 2.4, 6.1, 6.2, 6.8, 6.9, 6.12, 6.14, 6.17, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6, 7.8, 7.10, 7.12 and 7.15 (collectively, the “Applicable Sections”). The deemed ownership provided for in this Section 2.1(c) shall last until the earliest of the termination of such tender option bond trust; the agreement by the Issuer and such Purchaser to terminate such deemed ownership; and, with respect to some or all of the Applicable Sections, the good-faith determination by such Purchaser that such deemed ownership has adverse tax, legal or other regulatory consequences or is otherwise no longer consistent with applicable law.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except with respect to the deemed ownership provided for above in respect of the Applicable Sections, the tender option bond trust to which VMTP Shares are transferred and each of the beneficial owners thereof shall retain all of its other rights in respect of the Issuer and the VMTP Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the Articles Supplementary or under law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, its rights under any of the Applicable Sections to the extent necessary for the protection or exercise of such other rights retained pursuant to this Section 2.1(d) or that are otherwise applicable as a result of the exercise of such other rights.

2.2 Fees

On the Effective Date, the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of the Purchasers’ outside counsel in connection with the negotiation and documentation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, but not in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement.

2.3 Operating Expenses

The Issuer shall treat amounts due to be paid by it hereunder (including any incidental expenses but not including redemption or dividend payments on the VMTP Shares) as operating expenses.

2.4 Additional Fee for Failure to Comply With Reporting Requirement or Registration Rights Failure

For so long as either Purchaser is a Holder or Designated Owner of any Outstanding VMTP Shares, if the Issuer fails to comply with the reporting requirements set forth in Sections 6.1(o) and 6.1(p) (except as a result of a Force Majeure Exception) and such failure is not cured within seven (7) Business Days after written notification to the Issuer by either Purchaser of such failure (a “Reporting Failure”) or a Registration Rights Failure occurs, and such failure is not cured within seven (7) Business Days after written notification to the Issuer by the Purchaser of such failure, the Issuer shall pay to each Purchaser on the Dividend Payment Date occurring in the month immediately following a month in which either such Reporting Failure or Registration Failure (either, a “Failure”) continues a fee calculated in respect of each Week (or portion thereof) during such month in respect of a Failure and beginning on the date of such Failure, equal to the product of (a) the Fee Rate, times (b) the aggregate average daily Liquidation Preference of the VMTP Shares held by such Purchaser during such Week or portion thereof, times (c) the quotient of the number of days in such Week or portion thereof divided by the number of calendar days in the year in which such Week or portion thereof occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall (i) the fee payable pursuant to this Section 2.4 hereunder for any Week plus the Applicable Spread on the VMTP Shares for such Week exceed an amount (exclusive of any Gross-Up Payment) equal to the product of (x) 6.15%, times (y) the aggregate average daily Liquidation Preference of the VMTP Shares held by such Purchaser during such Week or portion thereof, times (z) the quotient of the number of days in such Week or portion thereof divided by the number of calendar days in the year in which such Week or portion thereof occurs; (ii) the fee payable pursuant to this Section 2.4 for any Week plus the amount of dividends payable at the Dividend Rate for the VMTP Shares for such Week exceed an amount (exclusive of any Gross-Up Payment) equal to the product of (aa) 15%, times (bb) the aggregate average daily Liquidation Preference of the VMTP Shares held by such Purchaser during such Week or portion thereof, times (cc) the quotient of the number of days in such Week or portion thereof divided by the number of calendar days in the year in which such Week or portion thereof occurs; or (iii) the Issuer be required to calculate or pay a fee in respect of more than one Failure in any Week.

ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE ISSUER

The representations and warranties set out in this Article IV are given hereunder by the Issuer to each of the Purchasers as of the Effective Date.

4.3 Binding Effect

Each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Issuer, enforceable in accordance with its terms except as (i) the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by equitable or public policy principles of general applicability, it being understood that the enforceability of indemnification provisions may be subject to limitations imposed under applicable securities laws.

4.4 Financial Information

The most recent financial statements of the Issuer, and the auditors’ report with respect thereto, copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each of the Purchasers, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of the Issuer, at such date and for such period, and were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, consistently applied (except as required or permitted and disclosed). Since the date of such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) or operations of the Issuer other than changes in the general economy or changes affecting the market for municipal securities or investment companies generally. Any financial, budget and other projections furnished to each of the Purchasers were prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated therein, which assumptions were fair and reasonable in light of conditions existing at the time of delivery of such financial, budget or other projections, and represented, and as of the date of this representation, represent, the Issuer’s reasonable best estimate of the Issuer’s future financial performance.

4.5 Litigation

Except as disclosed in a schedule delivered to each of the Purchasers prior to the Effective Date, no action, suit, proceeding or investigation is pending or (to the knowledge of the Issuer) overtly threatened in writing against the Issuer in any court or before any governmental authority (i) in any way contesting or, if decided adversely, that would affect the validity of any Related Document or this Agreement; or (ii) in which a final adverse decision would materially adversely affect provisions for or materially adversely affect the sources for payment of Liquidation Preference of or dividends on the VMTP Shares.

4.6 Consents

4.7 Placement of VMTP Shares

(a) No action has been or will be taken by the Issuer or any other Person that would permit the offer or sale of the VMTP Shares or any other offering material relating to the VMTP Shares in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required.

(b) The terms of the VMTP Shares conform in all material respects to those set forth in the Articles Supplementary.

(d) As of the date of this Agreement, the VMTP Shares will satisfy the eligibility requirements of Rule 144A(d)(3) under the Securities Act, and no securities of the same class (within the meaning of Rule 144A(d)(3) under the Securities Act) as the VMTP Shares are listed on any national securities exchange registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act or quoted in a U.S. automated inter-dealer quotation system.

(e) Neither the Issuer, nor any Person acting on its behalf, has, directly or indirectly, made offers or sales of any security (as defined in the Securities Act), or solicited offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require the registration of the VMTP Shares under the Securities Act (except for the circumstances set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement).

7.2 No Waivers

(a) The obligations of the Issuer hereunder shall not in any way be modified or limited by reference to any other document, instrument or agreement (including, without limitation, the VMTP Shares or any other Related Document). The rights of each of the Purchasers hereunder are separate from and in addition to any rights that any Holder or Designated Owner of any VMTP Share may have under the terms of such VMTP Share or any Related Document or otherwise.

(b) No failure or delay by the Issuer or either Purchaser in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the VMTP Shares shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No failure or delay by the Issuer or either Purchaser in exercising any right, power or privilege under or in respect of the VMTP Shares or any other Related Document shall affect the rights, powers or privileges of the Issuer or either Purchaser hereunder or shall operate as a limitation or waiver thereof. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

7.3 Expenses and Indemnification

(a) The Issuer shall upon demand either, as a Purchaser may require, pay in the first instance or reimburse such Purchaser (to the extent that payments for the following items are not made under the other provisions hereof) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and costs of outside counsel, and reasonable consulting, accounting, appraisal, investment banking and similar professional fees and charges) incurred by such Purchaser in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of rights under this Agreement. The Issuer shall not be responsible under this Section 7.3(a) for the fees and costs of more than one law firm in any one jurisdiction with respect to any one proceeding or set of related proceedings for the Purchasers, unless any Purchaser shall have reasonably concluded that there are legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Issuer.

(b) The Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and each other Indemnified Person of such Purchaser from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them (including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel) which are related to or arise out of any claim by any third party relating to the offering or sale of the VMTP Shares by the Issuer or the holding of the VMTP Shares by such Purchaser (A) that such Purchaser aided and abetted a breach of a fiduciary duty by the Issuer or any director or officer of the Issuer or (B) arising from any act by the Issuer or any director or officer of the Issuer (excluding in any such case clauses (A) or (B), claims, losses, liabilities or expenses arising out of or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(c) The indemnifying party also agrees that if any indemnification sought by an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement is unavailable or insufficient, for any reason, to hold harmless the Indemnified Persons of such other party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), then the indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, liabilities, damages and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other hand from the actual transactions giving rise to or contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Issuer on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that, in any event, the aggregate contribution of each Purchaser and its Indemnified Persons to all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses with respect to which contributions are available hereunder will not exceed the amount of dividends to be received by such Purchaser from the Issuer pursuant to the transactions giving rise to this Agreement. For purposes of determining the relative benefits to the Issuer on the one hand, and the Purchasers on the other, under the transactions giving rise to or contemplated by this Agreement, such benefits shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total value received by the Issuer pursuant to the transactions, whether or not consummated bears to (ii) the dividends and Optional Redemption Premium paid by the Issuer to such Purchaser in connection with the transactions giving rise to or contemplated by this Agreement. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the actions taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any misstatement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact) relates to information supplied by the Issuer on the one hand, or the Purchaser on the other, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, misstatement or alleged omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. No person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnity, reimbursement and contribution obligations under this Agreement shall be in addition to any rights that any Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise.

(d) If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which an Indemnified Person proposes to demand indemnification, it shall notify the indemnifying party with reasonable promptness; provided, however, that any failure by such Indemnified Person to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from its obligations hereunder (except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to promptly notify). The indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. The Indemnified Person shall have the right to counsel of its own choice to represent it, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the indemnifying party has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person in accordance with the preceding sentence or (ii) the Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that there exist actual or potential conflicting interests between the indemnifying party and such Indemnified Person, including situations in which one or more legal defenses may be available to such Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations be liable for fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Persons of such other party; and such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its professional responsibilities, cooperate with the indemnifying party and any counsel designated by the indemnifying party.

Each party further agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the other parties (the consent of a party shall not be required to the extent such party is neither requesting indemnification nor being requested to provide indemnification), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of the Issuer (if such settlement, compromise or consent is agreed to by a Purchaser or another Indemnified Person) or the Purchasers and each other Indemnified Person (if such settlement, compromise or consent is agreed to by the Issuer) from all liability and obligations arising therefrom and (ii) does not include a statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Issuer or either Purchaser and other Indemnified Persons, as the case may be. The Issuer further agrees that neither of the Purchasers, nor any of their affiliates, nor any directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives or control persons of such Purchaser or any of its affiliates shall have any liability to the Issuer arising out of or in connection with the proposed transactions giving rise to or contemplated by this Agreement except for such liability for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to the extent they have resulted from such Purchaser’s or its affiliates’ gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. No Indemnified Person shall be responsible or liable to the indemnifying party or any other person for consequential, special or punitive damages which may be alleged as a result of this Agreement.

(e) Nothing in this Section 7.3 is intended to limit any party’s obligations contained in other parts of this Agreement or the VMTP Shares.

7.4 Amendments and Waivers

Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Issuer and the Purchasers; provided, that the Issuer shall not make or agree to any amendment or waiver to the Articles of Incorporation or the Articles Supplementary that affects any preference, right or power of the VMTP Shares or the Holders or Designated Owners thereof except as permitted under the Articles of Incorporation or the Articles Supplementary.

7.5 Successors and Assigns

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Neither the Issuer nor any Purchaser may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party (other than by operation of law), except, subject to Section 2.1(c), that (1) any transferee satisfying the requirements set forth in Section 2.1 and which has executed and delivered to the Issuer the transferee certificate attached as Exhibit C (each such transferee, an “Eligible Transferee”) shall, prior to registration of any VMTP Shares under the Securities Act, have the rights set forth in Section 6.17, Section 7.15 and this Section 7.5 and shall, so long as such Eligible Transferee has provided a means for the Issuer to transmit such information electronically to it, be entitled to receive the information delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1(o) and 6.1(p) and such Eligible Transferees shall be deemed a party to this Agreement for purposes of Sections 6.1(o), 6.1(p), the rights of an Eligible Transferee under this Section 7.5 and the confidentiality provisions herein as specified in the transferee certificate and (2) either Purchaser may assign its rights or obligations to any affiliate of such Purchaser or any tender option bond trust in which such Purchaser retains the entire residual interest. Any assignment without such prior written consent shall be void. Upon request by any party hereto or an Eligible Transferee, the Issuer and the Purchasers and any Eligible Transferees agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to amend Schedule 2 in good faith to identify successor entities to the extent that an entity currently listed on Schedule 2 is dissolved, liquidated or merged into another entity not currently included on Schedule 2.

7.6 Term of this Agreement

This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the registration of any Outstanding VMTP Shares under the Securities Act and (b) payment in full of all amounts then due and owing to the Purchasers and their affiliates hereunder and under the VMTP Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, if either Purchaser sells all of its VMTP Shares (other than to an affiliate) and, in the case of a sale to a tender option bond trust, neither the Purchaser, nor any affiliate of the Purchaser, retains any residual interest or similar interest in any VMTP Shares sold to a tender option bond trust other than in connection with the Purchaser’s repurchase of the VMTP Shares from the tender option bond trust, no further amounts will be due and owing to the Purchaser with respect to such VMTP Shares for purposes of this Section 7.6(b).

Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the last sentence of the preceding paragraph, Section 7.3, Section 7.7, Section 7.8, Section 7.10, Section 7.11, the second sentence of Section 7.12 and Section 7.13 (for a period of two years after the termination of this Agreement) shall remain in full force and effect.

7.7 Governing Law

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the domestic law of the State of New York.

THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY SUBMIT TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND NEW YORK STATE COURTS LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

7.8 Waiver of Jury Trial

The Issuer and each of the Purchasers hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against any other on any matters whatsoever arising out of, or in any way connected with, this Agreement.

7.9 Counterparts

This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Any counterpart or other signature delivered by facsimile or by electronic mail shall be deemed for all purposes as being a good and valid execution and delivery of this Agreement by that party.

7.10 Beneficiaries

This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be construed, to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder.

7.11 Entire Agreement

Except as set forth in Section 7.5, this Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the matters set forth herein and shall supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

7.12 Relationship to the Articles Supplementary

The Issuer and each of the Purchasers agree that the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement are in addition to the terms and provisions set forth in the Articles Supplementary. Section 15(d)(iv) of the Articles Supplementary shall have no effect for so long as none of the VMTP Shares have been registered under the Securities Act.

7.13 Confidentiality

Any information delivered by a party to this Agreement to any other party pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 6.1 in the case of the Issuer (collectively, the “Information”), shall not be disclosed by such other party (or its employees, representatives or agents) to any person or entity (except as required by law or to such of its agents and advisors as need to know and agree to be bound by the provisions of this paragraph) without the prior written consent of the party delivering the Information. The parties agree that the Information (including, but not limited to, the Information provided pursuant to Sections 6.1(o) and 6.1(p)), to the extent constituting material, nonpublic information, shall be used solely for the purposes set forth in this Agreement and the other Related Documents, including the purposes set forth in the next paragraph of this Section 7.13 and for purposes of the making, monitoring and evaluation of the investment in the VMTP Shares, and for no other purpose.

The obligations of confidentiality set out in the preceding paragraph do not extend to Information that is or becomes available to the public or is or becomes available to the party receiving the Information on a non-confidential basis or is disclosed to Holders or Designated Owners or potential Holders or Designated Owners, in each case in their capacity as such, in the offering documents of the Issuer, in notices to Holders or Designated Owners pursuant to one or more of the Related Documents or pursuant to the Issuer’s or each Purchaser’s informational obligations under Rule 144A(d)(4) or other reporting obligation of the Securities and Exchange Commission; or is required or requested to be disclosed (i) by a regulatory agency or in connection with an examination of either party or its representatives by regulatory authorities; (ii) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (iii) at the express direction of any other authorized government agency; (iv) to its independent attorneys or auditors; (v) as required by any NRSRO; (vi) as otherwise required by law or regulation; (vii) otherwise in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement; (viii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or in any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the enforcement of rights hereunder; (ix) by a prospective purchaser of the VMTP Shares that is (a) a transferee that would be permitted pursuant to Section 2.1(b) of this Agreement and (b) aware of the confidentiality provisions of this Section 7.13 and is subject to an agreement with the transferor containing provisions substantially similar thereto and that states that the Issuer is an express third-party beneficiary thereof; (x) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those of this Section 7.13; or (xi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those of this Section 7.13 and with the prior written consent of the other party to this Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to any actual or prospective counterparty in any swap or derivative transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, references in this Section 7.13 to “regulatory agency,” “regulatory authorities,” “government agency” and “law or regulation” shall be deemed to include the Internal Revenue Service and state taxation authorities.

7.14 Severability

In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby so long as the intent of the parties to this Agreement shall be preserved.

7.15 Consent Rights of the Majority Participants to Certain Actions

For so long as none of the VMTP Shares have been registered under the Securities Act, without the affirmative vote or consent of the Majority Participants, neither the Issuer nor the Board of Directors will take or authorize the taking of any of actions set forth under clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 7.15:

(a) The termination by the Issuer of any Rating Agency or the selection of any Other Rating Agency, either in replacement for a Rating Agency or as an additional Rating Agency with respect to the VMTP Shares unless (i) immediately following such termination, there would be at least one Rating Agency with respect to such VMTP Shares or (ii) it replaces the terminated Rating Agency with another Rating Agency and provides notice thereof to the Holders of such VMTP Shares; provided that such replacement shall not occur unless such replacement Other Rating Agency shall have at the time of such replacement (i) published a rating for the VMTP Shares and (ii) entered into an agreement with the Issuer to continue to publish such rating subject to the Rating Agency’s customary conditions.

(b) The Issuer issuing or suffering to exist any “senior security” (as defined in the 1940 Act as of the date hereof or, in the event such definition shall be amended, with such changes to the definition thereof as consented to by the Majority Participants) other than VMTP Shares issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement or indebtedness for borrowed money of the Issuer, except (i) borrowings for temporary purposes in an amount not to exceed 5% of the assets of the Issuer, which borrowings are repaid within sixty (60) days, (ii) the issuance of senior securities or the incurrence of indebtedness for borrowed money, the proceeds of which will be used for the redemption or repurchase of VMTP Shares and costs incurred in connection therewith, (iii) the Issuer’s previously issued and outstanding AMP Shares (for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement), if any, and (iv) as may be otherwise approved or consented to by the Majority Participants, provided that if any such “senior security” is created or incurred by the Issuer it shall not require the approval of the Majority Participants if the Issuer redeems, retires or terminates such “senior security” or otherwise cures such noncompliance within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice of the existence thereof.

(c) The Issuer (i) creating or incurring or suffering to be incurred or to exist any lien on any other funds, accounts or other property held under the Articles of Incorporation or the Articles Supplementary, except as permitted by the Articles of Incorporation or the Articles Supplementary or (ii) except for any lien for the benefit of the Custodian of the Issuer on the assets of the Issuer held by such Custodian or any lien arising by operation of law, pledging any portfolio security to secure any senior securities or other liabilities to be incurred by the Issuer unless the securities pledged pursuant to all such pledges or other security arrangements are valued, for purposes of determining the value of the collateral required to be posted or otherwise provided under all such security arrangements, (x) with respect to pledges to secure senior securities under any tender option bond trust of which the residual floating rate trust certificates will be owned by the Issuer, in an aggregate amount not less than 70% of their aggregate market value at the time of inception of the trust (by references to prices determined by an independent third-party pricing service) and (y) with respect to all other pledges to secure senior securities, in an aggregate amount not less than 70% of their aggregate market value from time to time (by reference to prices determined by an independent third-party pricing service); provided, that the required collateral value (determined in accordance with clause (x) and/or (y) above, as applicable) under such security arrangements shall not exceed the market value of the exposure of each secured party to the credit of the Issuer; and provided further, that it shall not require the approval of the Majority Participants if any such pledge or security interest in violation of the preceding sentence is created or incurred by the Issuer and the Issuer cures such violation within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice of the existence thereof.

(d) Approval of any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or the Articles Supplementary, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, that would materially and negatively affect any preference, right or power of the VMTP Shares differentially from the rights of the holders of the Common Shares; or

(e) Approval of any action to be taken pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Articles Supplementary.

In addition, if the Board of Directors shall designate a replacement to the S&P Municipal Bond 7 Day High Grade Rate Index pursuant to the definition of SIFMA Municipal Swap Index contained in the Articles Supplementary, the Issuer shall notify the Holders of the VMTP Shares within five (5) Business Days of such designation, and if within thirty (30) days of such notice the Majority Participants shall have objected in writing to the designated replacement, the Board of Directors shall designate a replacement to such index as agreed to between the Issuer and the Majority Participants. In such event, the replacement index initially approved by the Board of Directors shall be the index in effect for purposes of the Articles Supplementary until a new index has been approved by the Issuer and the Majority Participants.

ELIGIBLE ASSETS

On the Effective Date and at all times thereafter that the VMTP Purchase Agreement is outstanding:

1.	All assets in the Issuer consist of “Eligible Assets,” defined to consist only of the following as of the time of investment:

Debt obligations

i. “Municipal securities,” defined as obligations of a state, the District of Columbia, U.S. territory, 501(c)(3) organization or political subdivision thereof and include general obligations, limited obligation bonds, revenue bonds and obligations that satisfy the requirements of section 142(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 issued by or on behalf of any state, the District of Columbia, U.S. territory or political subdivision thereof, including any municipal corporate instrumentality of one or more states, or any public agency or authority of any state, the District of Columbia, U.S. territory or political subdivision of thereof. The purchase of any municipal security will be based upon the Adviser’s assessment of an asset’s relative value in terms of current yield, price, credit quality and future prospects; and the Adviser will monitor the creditworthiness of the Issuer’s portfolio investments and analyze economic, political and demographic trends affecting the markets for such assets. Eligible Assets shall include any municipal securities that at the time of purchase are distressed but paying scheduled principal and interest and that at the time of purchase are in payment default but, in the sole judgment of the Adviser, are expected to produce payments of principal and interest whose present value exceeds the purchase price.

ii. Debt obligations of the United States.

iii. Debt obligations issued, insured, or guaranteed by a department or an agency of the U.S. government.

iv. Debt obligations of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority guaranteed by the Secretary of Transportation under Section 9 of the National Capital Transportation Act of 1969.

v. Debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan Banks.

vi. Debt obligations, participations or other instruments of or issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association or the Government National Mortgage Association.

vii. Debt obligations which are or ever have been sold by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation pursuant to sections 305 or 306 of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation Act.

viii. Debt obligations of any agency named in 12 U.S.C. § 24(Seventh) as eligible to issue obligations that a national bank may underwrite, deal in, purchase and sell for the bank’s own account, including qualified Canadian government obligations.

ix. Debt obligations that are additionally secured by insurance, bank credit agreements, or escrow accounts.

x. Certificates of deposit, time deposits and bankers’ acceptances.

xi. Non-appropriation lease obligations of installment purchase contract obligations of municipal authorities or entities of comparable quality to securities that are rated investment grade.

xii. Debt obligations of issuers other than those specified in (i) through (xi) above that are rated in one of the four highest rating categories by two or more NRSROs, or by one NRSRO if the security has been rated by only one NRSRO, or otherwise based on the Issuer’s internal credit due diligence, and that are “marketable.” For these purposes, an obligation is “marketable” if:

•

it is registered under the Securities Act;

•

it is offered and sold pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 144A; 17 CFR 230.144A; or

•

it can be sold with reasonable promptness at a price that corresponds reasonably to its fair value.

xiv. Certificates or other securities evidencing ownership interests in a municipal bond trust structure (generally referred to as a “tender option bond structure”) that invests in (a) debt obligations of the types described in (i) above or (b) depository receipts reflecting ownership interests in accounts holding debt obligations of the types described in (i) above.

The bonds, notes and other debt securities referenced in (A) above shall be defined as Eligible Assets. An asset shall not lose its status as an Eligible Asset solely by virtue of the fact that:

•

it provides for repayment of principal and interest in any form, including fixed and floating rate, zero interest, capital appreciation, discount, leases and payment in kind; or

•

it is for long-term or short-term financing purposes.

Derivatives

Interest rate derivatives;

ii.

Swaps, futures, forwards, structured notes, options and swaptions related to Eligible Assets or on an index related to Eligible Assets; or

iii.

Credit default swaps.

Other Assets

Shares of other investment companies (open- or closed-end funds and ETFs) the assets of which consist entirely of Eligible Assets based on the affirmative representation of that investment company’s adviser.

ii.

Cash.

iii.

Repurchase agreements on assets described in A above.

iv.

Taxable fixed-income securities, for the purpose of acquiring control of an issuer whose municipal bonds (a) the Issuer already owns and (b) have deteriorated or are expected shortly to deteriorate that such investment should enable the Issuer to better maximize its existing investment in such issuer, provided that the Issuer may invest no more than 0.5% of its total assets in such securities.

Other assets, upon written agreement of all holders of the VMTP Shares (“Holders”) that such assets are eligible for purchase by the Holders.

The Issuer shall provide, (i) within fifteen (15) Business Days of the last day of each month, a fact sheet including the information set forth in Exhibit D to this Agreement, prepared on a basis substantially consistent with the periodic information the Adviser prepares for other closed-end funds and reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers; and (ii) within fifteen (15) Business Days of the last day of each month, a calculation of the Effective Leverage Ratio and the Minimum Asset Coverage Ratio of the Issuer as of the last day of each month since the date of the last report issued pursuant to this subclause (ii); and upon the failure of the Issuer to maintain Minimum Asset Coverage Ratio as provided in Section 6(a) of the Articles Supplementary or the Effective Leverage Ratio as required by Section 6(c) of the Articles Supplementary, notice of such failure as soon as possible. Prior to any registration of the VMTP Shares, Series A under the Securities Act, a permitted transferee of such VMTP Shares will have the right to receive such information upon satisfying certain conditions.

3.	The Issuer has instituted policies and procedures that it believes are sufficient to ensure that the Issuer’s investment manager invests the Issuer’s assets in a manner that complies with the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Exhibit to the Agreement.

The Issuer will, upon request, provide the Holder(s) and its internal and external auditors and inspectors as the Holder(s) may from time to time designate, with all reasonable assistance and access to information and records of the Issuer relevant to the Issuer’s compliance with and performance of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Exhibit to the Agreement, but only for the purposes of internal and external audit.

Attention: General Counsel, Closed-End Funds

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is hereby made to the VMTP Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of July 2, 2014, as may be amended from time to time, between Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx New York Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc., a closedend management investment company organized as a Maryland corporation (the “Fund”) and Banc of America Preferred Funding Corporation, a Delaware corporation, including its successors by merger or operation (the “Transferor”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Purchase Agreement.
