any other Class C Certificateholder fails to notify the purchasing Class C Certificateholder of such other Class C Certificateholder’s desire to participate in such a purchase, then such other Class C Certificateholder shall lose its right to purchase the Class A Certificates and the Applicable Certificates pursuant to this Section 4.01(b)(i); and
(ii) if any Refinancing Certificates are issued, each Refinancing Certificateholder shall have the same right (subject to the same terms and conditions) to purchase Certificates pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) (and to receive notice in connection therewith) as the Certificateholders of the Class that such Refinancing Certificates refinanced.
The purchase price with respect to the Applicable Certificates shall be equal to the Pool Balance of the Applicable Certificates, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of such purchase, without premium (including Make-Whole Amount), but including any other amounts then due and payable to the Applicable Certificateholders under the Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any Note Document or on or in respect of the Applicable Certificates; provided, however, that no such purchase of Applicable Certificates shall be effective unless the purchaser(s) shall certify to the Trustee that contemporaneously with such purchase, such purchaser(s) is (are) purchasing, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and the Other Agreements, in the case of any purchase of the Applicable Certificates pursuant to clause (b)(i) above, all of the Applicable Certificates and the Class A Certificates. Each payment of the purchase price of the Applicable Certificates referred to in the first sentence hereof shall be made to an account or accounts designated by the Trustee and each such purchase shall be subject to the terms of this Section 4.01. Each Applicable Certificateholder agrees by its acceptance of its Applicable Certificate that (at any time after the occurrence of a Certificate Buyout Event) it will, upon payment from any Class C Certificateholder(s) or Refinancing Certificateholder(s), as the case may be, of the purchase price set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph, (i) forthwith sell, assign, transfer and convey to the purchaser(s) thereof (without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind except for its own acts), all of the right, title, interest and obligation of such Applicable Certificateholder in the Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all Applicable Certificates and Escrow Receipts held by such Applicable Certificateholder (excluding all right, title and interest under any of the foregoing to the extent such right, title or interest is with respect to an obligation not then due and payable as respects any action or inaction or state of affairs occurring prior to such sale) (and the purchaser shall assume all of such Applicable Certificateholder’s obligations under the Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liquidity Facility, the NPA, the Note Documents and all such Applicable Certificates and Escrow Receipts), (ii) if such purchase occurs after a record date specified in Section 2.03 of the Escrow Agreement relating to the distribution of unused Deposits and/or accrued and unpaid interest on Deposits and prior to or on the related distribution date thereunder, forthwith turn over to the purchaser(s) of its Applicable Certificate all amounts, if any, received by it on account of such distribution, and (iii) if such purchase occurs after a Record Date relating to any distribution and prior to or on the related Distribution Date, forthwith turn over to the purchaser(s) of its Applicable Certificate
15
all amounts, if any, received by it on account of such distribution. The Applicable Certificates will be deemed to be purchased on the date payment of the purchase price is made notwithstanding the failure of the Applicable Certificateholders to deliver any Applicable Certificates and, upon such a purchase, (I) the only rights of the Applicable Certificateholders will be to deliver the Applicable Certificates to the purchaser(s) and receive the purchase price for such Applicable Certificates and (II) if the purchaser(s) shall so request, such Applicable Certificateholder will comply with all the provisions of Section 3.04 of the Basic Agreement to enable new Applicable Certificates to be issued to the purchaser in such denominations as it shall request. All charges and expenses in connection with the issuance of any such new Applicable Certificates shall be borne by the purchaser thereof.

Section 5.01. Acquisition of Trust Property. (a) The Trustee is hereby irrevocably authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Assignment and Assumption Agreement on the date specified in Section 7.01 of the Related Pass Through Trust Supplement, subject only to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in said Section 7.01. The Agreement (except only for this sentence and the immediately preceding sentence hereof, which are effective upon execution and delivery hereof) shall become effective upon the execution and delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement by the Trustee and the Related Trustee, automatically and without any further signature or action on the part of the Company and the Trustee, and shall thereupon constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the parties hereto enforceable against each of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms. Upon such execution and delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Related Trust shall be terminated, the Applicable Certificateholders shall receive beneficial interests in the Applicable Trust in exchange for their interests in the Related Trust equal to their respective beneficial interests in the Related Trust and the “Outstanding” (as defined in the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement) pass through certificates representing fractional undivided interests in the Related Trust shall be deemed for all purposes of the Agreement, without further signature or
16
action of any party or Certificateholder, to be Certificates representing the same Fractional Undivided Interests in the Applicable Trust and Trust Property. By acceptance of its Applicable Certificate, each Applicable Certificateholder consents to and ratifies such assignment, transfer and delivery of the trust property of the Related Trust to the Trustee upon the execution and delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The provisions of this Section 5.01(a) supersede and replace the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement with respect to the Applicable Trust, and all provisions of the Basic Agreement relating to Postponed Notes or Section 2.02 of the Basic Agreement shall not apply to the Applicable Trust.

By the acceptance of each Applicable Certificate issued to it under the Related Pass Through Trust Agreement and deemed issued under the Agreement, each Holder of any such Applicable Certificate as grantor of the Applicable Trust thereby joins in the creation and declaration of the Applicable Trust. The provisions of this Section 5.01(b) supersede and replace the provisions of Section 2.03 of the Basic Agreement, with respect to the Applicable Trust.
