Any such amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect any Holder if the Trust Administrator receives (i) written confirmation from the Rating Agency that such amendment will not cause the Rating Agency to withdraw, qualify or reduce the then current rating assigned to the Notes or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to such effect.
(b)
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties hereto with the consent of the Holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the Note Principal Amount of the Notes and of the Holder of the Trust Certificate for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, delay the timing of, or change the manner in which payments received on or with respect to the Trust Estate are required to be made on any Class of Securities, without the consent of the Securityholders of such Class, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Note Principal Amount of Notes, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Securityholders of 100% of such Securities.

This Agreement may not be assigned by the Trust Administrator unless such assignment is previously consented to in writing by the Owner Trustee and the Depositor, and the Rating Agency Condition in respect thereof has been satisfied. An assignment with such consent and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the Trust Administrator is bound hereunder.

Section 17. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 18. Not Applicable to Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. in Other Capacities. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any obligation Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. may have in any other capacity.
Section 19. Limitation of Liability of Owner Trustee. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement has been countersigned by Wilmington Trust Company not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Owner Trustee of the Issuer and in no event shall Wilmington Trust Company in its individual capacity or any beneficial owner of the Issuer have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of the Issuer hereunder, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer. For all purposes of this Agreement, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement.
Section 20. Limitation of Liability of the Trust Administrator; Indemnification.

Each of the Trust Administrator and the Certificate Paying Agent shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 20 and shall be entitled to rely upon and to directly enforce this Section. The payment and indemnification obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement shall survive the resignation or removal of either of such parties and the termination of this Agreement and the Operative Agreements.
Section 21. Benefit of Agreement. It is expressly agreed that in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Trust Administrator will act for the benefit of holders of the Securities as well as for the benefit of the Issuer, and that such obligations on the part of the Trust Administrator shall be enforceable at the instance of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer.
