In any case where notice to Registered Noteholders is given by mail, facsimile, electronic transmission or delivery neither the failure to mail, send by facsimile, electronic transmission or deliver such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Noteholders will affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders and any notice that is mailed, sent by facsimile, electronic transmission or delivered in the manner herein provided shall conclusively have been presumed to have been duly given.

Where this Indenture, any Indenture Supplement or any Registered Note provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver will be the equivalent of such notice.

such filing will not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

(b) In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or otherwise, it will be impractical to mail notice of any event to any Holder of a Registered Note when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any method of notification as will be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Issuer will be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

(c) With respect to any Tranche of Notes, the applicable Indenture Supplement may specify different or additional means of giving notice to the Holders of the Notes of such Tranche.

(d) Where this Indenture provides for notice to any Note Rating Agency, failure to give such notice will not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder and will not under any circumstance constitute an Adverse Effect or a breach of a condition precedent to the related action, if any.

Section 1.07. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

Section 2.04. Notes Issuable in the Form of a Global Note.

(a) If the Issuer establishes pursuant to Sections 2.02 and 3.01 that the Notes of a particular Series, Class or Tranche are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes, then the Issuer will execute and the Note Registrar will, in accordance with Section 3.03 and the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Note Registrar thereunder, authenticate and deliver, such Global Note or Notes, which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement (i) will represent, and will be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate Stated Principal Amount (or in the case of Discount Notes, the aggregate Stated Principal Amount at the Expected Principal Payment Date of such Notes) of the Outstanding Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche to be represented by such Global Note or Notes, or such portion thereof as the Issuer will specify in an Issuer Certificate, (ii) in the case of Registered Notes, will be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Note or Notes or its nominee, (iii) will be delivered by the Note Registrar to the Depository or pursuant to the Depository’s instruction, (iv) if applicable, will bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless this Note is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to the Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any note issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein” and (v) may bear such other legend as the Issuer, upon advice of counsel, deems to be applicable.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.04 or of Section 3.05, and subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) below, unless the terms of a Global Note or the applicable Indenture Supplement expressly permit such Global Note to be exchanged in whole or in part for individual Definitive Notes, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part and in the manner provided in Section 3.05, only to a nominee of the Depository

-36-

for such Global Note, or to the Depository, or a successor Depository for such Global Note selected or approved by the Issuer, or to a nominee of such successor Depository.

(i) If at any time the Depository for a Global Note notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Note or if at any time the Depository for the Notes for such Series, Class or Tranche ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Issuer will appoint a successor Depository with respect to such Global Note. If a successor Depository for such Global Note is not appointed by the Issuer within ninety (90) days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Issuer will execute, and the Note Registrar, upon receipt of an Issuer Certificate requesting the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche in exchange for such Global Note, will authenticate and deliver, individual Definitive Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche of like tenor and terms in an aggregate Stated Principal Amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount of the Global Note in exchange for such Global Note.

(ii) The Issuer may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche or portion thereof issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Notes will no longer be represented by such Global Note or Notes. In such event the Issuer will execute, and the Note Registrar, upon receipt of an Issuer Certificate for the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Note, will authenticate and deliver individual Definitive Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche of like tenor and terms in an aggregate Stated Principal Amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount of such Global Note or Notes representing such Series, Class or Tranche or portion thereof in exchange for such Global Note or Notes.

(iii) If specified by the Issuer pursuant to Sections 2.02 and 3.01 with respect to Notes issued or issuable in the form of a Global Note, the Depository for such Global Note may surrender such Global Note in exchange in whole or in part for individual Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche of like tenor and terms in Definitive Note form on such terms as are acceptable to the Issuer and such Depository. Thereupon the Issuer will execute, and the Note Registrar will authenticate and deliver, without service charge, (A) to each Person specified by such Depository a new Note or Notes of the same Series, Class or Tranche of like tenor and terms and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate Stated Principal Amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Note; and (B) to such Depository a new Global Note of like tenor and terms and in an authorized denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the Stated Principal Amount of the surrendered Global Note and the aggregate Stated Principal Amount of Notes delivered to the Holders thereof.

-37-

(iv) If any Event of Default has occurred with respect to such Global Notes, and Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 50% of the unpaid Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Global Notes of that Tranche advise the Indenture Trustee and the Depository that a Global Note is no longer in the best interest of the Noteholders, the Holders of Global Notes of that Tranche may exchange such Notes for individual Definitive Notes.

(v) In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding four paragraphs, the Issuer will execute and the Note Registrar will authenticate and deliver individual Definitive Notes in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire Stated Principal Amount of a Global Note for individual Definitive Notes, such Global Note will be canceled by the Note Registrar. Except as provided in the preceding paragraphs, Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.04 will be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository for such Global Note, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, will instruct the Note Registrar. The Note Registrar will deliver such Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered.

Section 2.05. Temporary Global Notes and Permanent Global Notes.

(a) If specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement for any Tranche, all or any portion of a Global Note may initially be issued in the form of a single temporary global Registered Note (the “Temporary Global Note”), without interest coupons, in the denomination of the entire aggregate principal amount of such Tranche and substantially in the form set forth in the exhibit with respect thereto attached to the applicable Indenture Supplement. The Temporary Global Note will be authenticated by the Note Registrar upon the same conditions, in substantially the same manner and with the same effect as the Definitive Notes. The Temporary Global Note may be exchanged as described in the applicable Indenture Supplement for permanent global Registered Notes (the “Permanent Global Notes”).

(b) Upon any such exchange of all or a portion of the Temporary Global Note for a Permanent Global Note or Notes, such Temporary Global Note will be endorsed by or on behalf of the Note Registrar to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Permanent Global Note or Notes. Until so exchanged in full, such Temporary Global Note will in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Permanent Global Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder except that the beneficial owners of such Temporary Global Note will not be entitled to receive payments of interests on the Notes until they have exchanged their beneficial interests in such Temporary Global Note for Permanent Global Notes.

Section 2.06. Beneficial Ownership of Global Notes. Until Definitive Notes have been issued to the applicable Noteholders pursuant to Section 2.04 or as otherwise specified in any applicable Indenture Supplement:

(a) the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Note Registrar may deal with the applicable clearing agency and the clearing agency’s participants for all

-38-

purposes (including the making of distributions) as the authorized representatives of the respective Note Owners; and

(b) the rights of the respective Note Owners will be exercised only through the applicable clearing agency and the clearing agency’s participants and will be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the clearing agency and/or the clearing agency’s participants. Pursuant to the operating rules of the applicable clearing agency, unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.04, the clearing agency will make book-entry transfers among the clearing agency’s participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related Notes to such clearing agency’s participants. Beneficial owners or clearing agency participants shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on its behalf by a clearing agency, the Indenture Trustee or a custodian and the applicable clearing agency may be treated as the absolute owner of the Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.

For purposes of any provision of this Indenture requiring or permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Noteholders evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Outstanding Notes, such direction or consent may be given by Note Owners (acting through the clearing agency and the clearing agency’s participants) owning interests in Notes evidencing the requisite percentage of principal amount of Notes.

Section 2.07. Notices to Depository. Whenever any notice or other communication is required to be given to Noteholders with respect to which book-entry Notes have been issued, unless and until Definitive Notes will have been issued to the related Note Owners, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Paying Agent, as the case may be, will give all such notices and communications to the applicable Depository, in accordance with the operation rules of the applicable Depository.

As of the Closing Date, the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose are located at the Corporate Trust Office of the Note Registrar.

(c) Subject to Section 2.04, at the option of the Noteholder, Notes of any Tranche may be exchanged for other Notes of such Tranche of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate Stated Principal Amount, Expected Principal Payment Date and Legal Maturity Date and of like terms, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Note Registrar. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer will execute, and the Note Registrar will authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Noteholders making the exchange are entitled to receive.

(f) Unless otherwise provided in the Note to be transferred or exchanged, no service charge will be made on any Noteholder for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Note Registrar may (unless otherwise provided in such Note) require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 3.04 or 10.06 not involving any transfer.

(g) None of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Note Registrar or any agent of the foregoing will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of

NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF MAY BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ANY STATE BLUE SKY OR SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS. THE TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO HEREIN.”

In the event that registration of a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act other than Rule 144A under the Securities Act or Rule 903 or Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, the transferor or the transferee will deliver, at its expense, to the Issuer, the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee, an investment letter from the transferee, substantially in the form of the investment letter attached hereto as Exhibit A or such other form as the Issuer may determine, and no registration of transfer will be made until such letter is so delivered.

Notes issued upon registration or transfer of, or Notes issued in exchange for, Notes bearing the legend referred to above will also bear such legend unless the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar receive an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to each of them, to the effect that such legend may be removed.

Whenever a Note containing the legend referred to above is presented to the Note Registrar for registration of transfer, the Note Registrar will promptly seek instructions from the Issuer regarding such transfer and will be entitled to receive an Issuer Certificate prior to registering any such transfer. The Issuer hereby agrees to indemnify the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee and to hold each of them harmless against any loss, liability or expense

-46-

incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by them in relation to any such instructions furnished pursuant to this clause.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Indenture Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Note Registrar shall be responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer complies with the registration provisions or exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws, the Internal Revenue Code or the Investment Company Act.

Section 3.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes.

(a) If (i) either any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar or the Issuer, the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Issuer, the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Issuer will execute and upon its request the Note Registrar will authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor, Series, Class or Tranche, Expected Principal Payment Date, Legal Maturity Date and Stated Principal Amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding.

(b) In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

(c) Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 3.06, the Issuer and the Note Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees, expenses and indemnities of the Note Registrar) connected therewith.

(d) Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note will constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note will be at any time enforceable by anyone, and will be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of the same Series, Class or Tranche duly issued hereunder.

(e) The provisions of this Section 3.06 are exclusive and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 3.07. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

(a) Unless otherwise provided with respect to such Note pursuant to Section 3.01, interest payable on any Registered Note will be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the most recent Record Date.

-47-

(b) Subject to clause (a), each Note delivered under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note will carry the rights to interest accrued or principal accreted and unpaid, and to accrue or accrete, which were carried by such other Note.

(c) The right of any Noteholder to receive interest on or principal of any Note shall be subject to any applicable withholding or deduction imposed pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code or other applicable tax law, including foreign withholding and deduction.

Section 7.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

(a) If an Event of Default described in clause (a), (b), (c) or (e) (if the Event of Default under clause (c) or (e) is with respect to less than all Series, Classes and Tranches of Notes then Outstanding) of Section 7.01 occurs and is continuing with respect to any Series, Class or Tranche, then and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all the Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche shall have already become due and payable, either the Indenture Trustee or Holders of not less than 66 2/3% in Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche then Outstanding hereunder (each such Series, Class or Tranche acting as a separate Class), by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by such Holders), may declare the Outstanding principal amount of all the Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche then Outstanding and all interest accrued or principal accreted and unpaid (if any) thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same will become and will be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture, the related Indenture Supplement or in the Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche to the contrary notwithstanding. Such payments are subject to Article V, Section 7.06 and the allocation, deposits and payment sections of the related Indenture Supplement.

(b) If an Event of Default described in clause (c) or (e) (if the Event of Default under clause (c) or (e) is with respect to all Series, Classes and Tranches of Notes then Outstanding) of Section 7.01 occurs and is continuing, then and in each and every such case, unless the principal of all the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Indenture Trustee or Holders of not less than 66 2/3% in Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of all the Notes then Outstanding hereunder (treated as one Class), by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by such Holders), may declare the Outstanding principal amount of all the Notes then Outstanding and all interest accrued or principal accreted and unpaid (if any) thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same will become and will be immediately due and payable, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture, the related Indenture Supplements or the Notes to the contrary.

(c) If an Event of Default described in clause (d) of Section 7.01 occurs and is continuing, then the Notes of all Series, Classes and Tranches will automatically be and become immediately due and payable by the Issuer, without notice or demand to any Person, and the Issuer will automatically and immediately be obligated to pay off the Notes.

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made with respect to the Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article VII provided, the Majority Holders of such Series, Classes or Tranche, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

No such rescission will affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 7.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee. The Issuer covenants that if:

(a) the Issuer defaults in the payment of interest on any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of thirty-five (35) days following the date on which such interest became due and payable, or

(b) the Issuer defaults in the payment of the principal of any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes at the Legal Maturity Date thereof;

and any such default continues beyond any specified grace period provided with respect to such Series, Class or Tranche of Notes, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay (subject to the allocation provided in Article V, this Article VII and any related Indenture Supplement) to the Indenture Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf), for the benefit of the Holders of any such Notes of the affected Series, Class or Tranche, the whole amount then due and payable on any such Notes for principal and interest, with interest, to the extent that payment of such interest will be legally enforceable, upon the overdue principal and upon overdue installments of interest, (i) in the case of Interest-bearing Notes, at the rate of interest applicable to the stated principal amount thereof, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement; and (ii) in the case of Discount Notes, as specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement, and in addition thereto, will pay such further amount as will be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, indemnities, disbursements and advances of (x) the Indenture Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Indenture Trustee under Section 8.07 and (y) the Paying Agent and the Note Registrar, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Paying Agent and the Note Registrar under Section 17.02.

Section 7.04. Indenture Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Indenture Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes will then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee will have made any demand on the Issuer for the payment of overdue principal or interest) will be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise,

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary and advisable in order to have the claims of (x) the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, indemnities, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Indenture Trustee under Section 8.07) and (y) the Paying Agent and the Note Registrar (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, indemnities, disbursements and advances of each of the Paying Agent and the Note Registrar, each of its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Paying Agent and the Note Registrar under Section 17.02) and of the Noteholders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(ii) to collect and receive any funds or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

Nothing herein contained will be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan or reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any

-64-

Holder thereof, or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.

No successor Indenture Trustee with respect to any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes will accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Indenture Trustee will be qualified and eligible with respect to that Series, Class or Tranche under this Article VIII.

Section 8.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

The Issuer will give prompt written notice of such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession to the Note Rating Agencies. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Indenture Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Indenture Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Indenture Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

If and when the Indenture Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), the Indenture Trustee will be subject to the provisions of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act. An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or been removed will be subject to Section 311(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent provided therein.

-78-

Classes or Tranches issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.06, and Notes so authenticated will be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and will be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Indenture Trustee hereunder. Upon the appointment of an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 8.14, wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Note Registrar or the Note Registrar’s certificate of authentication, such reference will be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Note Registrar by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Note Registrar by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent will be acceptable to the Issuer and will at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as an Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital surplus, and undivided profits of not less than $50,000,000 and, if other than the Issuer itself, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.14, the combined capital surplus, and undivided profits of such Authenticating Agent will be deemed to be its combined capital surplus, and undivided profits as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.14, such Authenticating Agent will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 8.14.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, will continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation will be otherwise eligible under this Section 8.14, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Indenture Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Issuer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent will cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.14, the Indenture Trustee, with the approval of the Issuer, may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which will be acceptable to the Issuer and will give notice to each Noteholder as provided in Section 1.06. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder will become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent will be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 8.14.

The Indenture Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent (other than an Authenticating Agent appointed at the request of the Issuer from time to time) reasonable

-79-

compensation for its services under this Section 8.14, and the Indenture Trustee will be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments, subject to the provisions of Section 8.07.

The Paying Agent will have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Collection Account or other applicable Trust Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to in the preceding sentence. The Indenture Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Indenture Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent has failed to perform its obligations under this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement in any material respect. The Paying Agent upon removal will return all funds in its possession to the Indenture Trustee.

The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent (other than the Indenture Trustee or Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association) for any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent will agree with the Indenture Trustee (and to the extent the Indenture Trustee or Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National

-92-

Association acts as Paying Agent, it so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 11.03, that such Paying Agent will:

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of or interest on Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums will be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(b) if such Paying Agent is not the Indenture Trustee, give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche) in the making of any such payment of principal or interest on the Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche;

(c) if such Paying Agent is not the Indenture Trustee, at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes or for any other purpose, pay, or by an Officer’s Certificate direct the Paying Agent to pay, to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by the Issuer or such Paying Agent in respect of each and every Series, Class or Tranche of Notes as to which it seeks to discharge this Indenture or, if for any other purpose, all sums so held in trust by the Issuer in respect of all Notes, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Issuer or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by the Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent will be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

Subject to applicable law, any money deposited with the Indenture Trustee or the Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note of any Series, Class or Tranche and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or interest has become due and payable will be paid to the Issuer upon request in an Officer’s Certificate, or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease. The Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer give notice to the Holders of the Notes as to which the money to

-93-

be repaid was held in trust, as provided in Section 1.06, a notice that such funds remain unclaimed and that, after a date specified in the notice, which will not be less than thirty (30) days from the date on which the notice was first mailed or published to the Holders of the Notes as to which the money to be repaid was held in trust, any unclaimed balance of such funds then remaining will be paid to the Issuer free of the trust formerly impressed upon it.

The Issuer initially authorizes and appoints Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association to act as Paying Agent for the Notes on its behalf. The Issuer may at any time and from time to time authorize one or more Persons (including the Indenture Trustee) to act as Paying Agent in addition to or in place of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association with respect to any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes issued under this Indenture.

Each Paying Agent will at all times have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and be subject to supervision or examination by a United States Federal or State authority or be regulated by or subject to the supervision or examination of a governmental authority of a nation that is member of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. If such Paying Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 11.03, the combined capital and surplus of such Paying Agent will be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition as so published.

Section 11.04. Statement as to Compliance.

instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

Section 11.12. Rule 144A Information. For so long as any of the Notes of any Series, Class or Tranche are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Exchange Act, the Issuer agrees to provide to any Noteholder of such Series, Class or Tranche and to any prospective purchaser of Notes designated by such Noteholder, upon the request of such Noteholder or prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided to such Holder or prospective purchaser to satisfy the conditions set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Exchange Act.

Section 11.13. Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables.

(a) The Issuer hereby covenants and agrees that it will enforce the obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement and if a Servicer Default shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the Servicing Agreement with respect to the Transferred Assets, the Issuer shall take all reasonable actions available to it to remedy such failure or cause such failure to be remedied; provided, however, that any Servicer Default other than a Servicer Default arising under Section 5.01(a) of the Servicing Agreement may be waived by the Issuer upon consent of the Noteholders of not less than 66²⁄₃ of the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount for the Notes for all Series to which the Servicer Default relates.

(b) Subject to the following sentence, in connection with a termination of the Servicer’s rights and powers pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Servicing Agreement, if a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and accepted its appointment pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Servicing Agreement at the time when the previous Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer, subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any actions of any Servicer prior to the Indenture Trustee’s appointment as Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee shall, if it is legally unable or unwilling to so act or if the Majority Holders of all Notes so request in writing to the Indenture Trustee, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any servicing institution established in servicing receivables substantially similar to the Transferred Assets as the successor to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee may resign as the Successor Servicer by giving written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and in such event will be released from such duties and obligations, such release not to be effective until the date a Successor Servicer enters into a servicing agreement with the Issuer as provided below. Upon delivery of any such notice to the Issuer, the Issuer shall appoint an Eligible Servicer as the Successor Servicer under the Servicing

-96-

Agreement. If within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the notice of termination of the Servicer’s right and powers referred to above, the Issuer shall not have obtained such a Successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee may appoint, or may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a Successor Servicer. In connection with any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such Successor Servicer as the Indenture Trustee and such Successor Servicer shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and in the Servicing Agreement. In accordance with Section 5.02 of the Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such Successor Servicer for the servicing of the Transferred Assets (such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee). If the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the previous Servicer’s duties as servicer of the Transferred Assets as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VIII, of this Indenture shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as the Successor Servicer and the servicing of the Transferred Assets. If the Indenture Trustee shall become the Successor Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to appoint any one of its Affiliates as a sub-servicer or agent; provided, that it shall be fully liable for the actions and omissions of such sub-servicer or agent. If the Indenture Trustee shall act as Successor Servicer, all costs associated with the transfer of servicing shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer.

(c) Upon any termination of the Servicer’s rights and powers pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee. As soon as a Successor Servicer is appointed, the Issuer shall notify the Indenture Trustee of such appointment, specifying in such notice the name and address of such Successor Servicer.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement relating to a Series, Class or Tranche of Notes, or in the form of Notes for such Series, Class or Tranche, the following are each an “Early Redemption Event”:

(a) with respect to any Tranche of Notes, the occurrence of the Expected Principal Payment Date of such Note;

(b) the Transferor shall become unable for any reason to transfer Receivable in accordance with the provisions of subsection 2.06(a) of the Transfer Agreement, or WFBNA shall become unable for any reason to transfer such Receivable to Funding in accordance with the provisions of the Receivables Purchase Agreement;

(c) The Issuer becomes subject to regulation by the Commission as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act;

(d) an Insolvency Event shall occur with respect to WFBNA;

(f) with respect to any Series, Class or Tranche of Notes, any additional Series Early Redemption Event specified in the Indenture Supplement for such Series, Class or Tranche as applying to such Series, Class or Tranche;

The redemption price of a Tranche of Notes so redeemed will equal the Outstanding principal amount of such Tranche, plus interest accrued and unpaid to but excluding the date of redemption, the payment of which will be subject to Article V, Article VII and the allocations, deposits and payments sections of the related Indenture Supplement.

If the Issuer is unable to pay the redemption price in full on the Principal Payment Date following the end of the Monthly Period in which the Early Redemption Event occurs, monthly payments on such Tranche of Notes will thereafter be made on each following Principal Payment Date until the Outstanding principal amount of such Tranche, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, is paid in full or the Legal Maturity Date occurs, whichever is earlier, subject to Article V, Article VII and the allocations, deposits and payments sections of the related Indenture Supplement. Any funds in any Supplemental Account for a redeemed Tranche will be applied to make the principal and interest payments on that Tranche on the redemption date,

-101-

subject to Article V, Article VII and the allocations, deposits and payments sections of the related Indenture Supplement. Principal payments on redeemed Tranches will be made first to the senior-most Notes until paid in full, then to the Subordinated Notes until paid in full.

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement for a Series, Class or Tranche of Notes, the Transferor (if the Transferor is the Servicer or an Affiliate of the Servicer) has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem a Series, Class or Tranche of Notes in whole but not in part on any day on or after the day on which the Aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount of such Series, Class or Tranche is reduced to less than 5% of its Initial Dollar Principal Amount; provided, however, that if such Series, Class or Tranche of Notes is of a Subordinated Class, the Transferor will not redeem such Notes if the provisions of the related Indenture Supplement would prevent the payment of such Subordinated Note until a level of prefunding of the Principal Funding sub-Accounts for the Senior Classes of Notes for that Series has been reached such that the amount of such deficiency in the required subordination of a Senior Class of Notes is no longer required to provide subordination protection for the Senior Classes of that Series. If the Transferor elects to redeem a Series, Class or Tranche of Notes, it will cause the Issuer to notify the Noteholders of such redemption at least thirty (30) days prior to the redemption date. The redemption price of a Series, Class or Tranche so redeemed will equal the Outstanding principal amount of such Tranche, plus interest accrued and unpaid or principal accreted and unpaid on such Tranche to but excluding the date of redemption.

If the Transferor is unable to pay the redemption price in full on the redemption date, monthly payments on such Tranche of Notes will thereafter be made until the Outstanding principal amount of such Tranche, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, is paid in full or the Legal Maturity Date occurs, whichever is earlier, subject to Article V, Article VII and the allocations, deposits and payments sections of the related Indenture Supplement.

-103-

other necessary documents covering the Indenture Trustee’s right, title and interest to the Collateral to be promptly recorded, registered and filed, and at all times to be kept, recorded, registered and filed, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve and protect the right, title and interest of the Indenture Trustee to all property comprising the Collateral.

Section 13.02. Trust Indenture Act Requirements. The release of any Collateral from the lien created by this Indenture or the release of, in whole or in part, such liens, will not be deemed to impair the Security Interests in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral or liens are released pursuant to the terms hereof. The Indenture Trustee and each of the Noteholders and any applicable Derivative Counterparty acknowledge that a release of Collateral or liens strictly in accordance with the terms hereof will not be deemed for any purpose to be an impairment of the Security Interests in contravention of the terms of this Indenture. To the extent applicable, without limitation, the Issuer and each other obligor on the Notes will cause Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act relating to the release of property or securities from the liens hereof to be complied with.

Section 13.03. Suits to Protect the Collateral. Subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will have power to institute and to maintain such suits and

104

proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Indenture, and such suits and proceedings as the Indenture Trustee may deem expedient to preserve or protect the interests of the Noteholders and any applicable Derivative Counterparty and the interests of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the Security Interests or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of the Notes or the Indenture Trustee).

Each Derivative Counterparty’s rights consist solely of the right to receive Collections allocated for its benefit pursuant to the related Indenture Supplement.

Section 13.08. Certain Actions by Indenture Trustee. Any action taken by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article XIII in respect of the release of Collateral will be taken by the Indenture Trustee as its interest in such Collateral may appear, and, except as is expressly stated herein, no provision of this Article XIII is intended to, or will, excuse compliance with any provision hereof.

Not later than the fifth day of the month in which the final distribution in respect of such Series or Class is payable to Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee shall provide notice to Noteholders of such Series, Class or Tranche specifying (i) the date upon which final payment of such Series, Class or Tranche will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes of such Series, Class or Tranche at the office or offices therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such payment date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of such Notes at the office or offices therein specified.

Re:

Purchase of $________^* principal amount of

WF Card Issuance Trust, Series [_], Class [_] Notes

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with our purchase of the above Notes (the “Notes”) we confirm that:

(1) We understand that the Notes are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are being sold to us in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act.

(2) Any information we desire concerning the Notes or any other matter relevant to our decision to purchase the Notes is or has been made available to us.

(3) We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes, and we (and any account for which we are purchasing under paragraph (iv) below) are able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Notes. We (and any account for which we are purchasing under paragraph (iv) below) are an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2) or (3) of Regulation D under the Securities Act).

(4) We are acquiring the Notes for our own account or for accounts as to which we exercise sole investment discretion and not with a view to any distribution of the Notes, subject, nevertheless, to the understanding that the disposition of our property shall at all times be and remain within our control;

^*	Not less than $250,000 minimum principal amount.

A-1

(5) We agree that the Notes must be held indefinitely by us unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from any registration requirements under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities law is available;

(6) We agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to dispose of or exchange any of the Notes (such disposition or exchange not being currently foreseen or contemplated), we will not transfer or exchange any of the Notes unless:

(a)(i) the sale is of at least U.S. $250,000 principal amount of Notes to an Eligible Purchaser (as defined below), (ii) a letter to substantially the same effect as paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this letter is executed promptly by the purchaser and (iii) all offers or solicitations in connection with the sale, whether directly or through any agent acting on our behalf, are limited only to Eligible Purchasers and are not made by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising whatsoever; or

(b) the Notes are transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act by us after we have held them for more than three years; or

(c) the Notes are sold in any other transaction that does not require registration under the Securities Act and, if the Issuer, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar so requests, we theretofore have furnished to such party an opinion of counsel satisfactory to such party, in form and substance satisfactory to such party, to such effect; or

(d) the Notes are transferred pursuant to an exception from the registration requirements under the Securities Act under Rule 144A under the Securities Act; and

(7) We understand that the Notes will bear a legend to substantially the following effect:

“THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ANY STATE BLUE SKY OR SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH PROVISIONS. THE TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO HEREIN.”

This legend may be removed if the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar have received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to them, in form and substance satisfactory to them, to the effect that the legend may be removed.

A-2

“Eligible Purchaser” means either an Eligible Dealer or a corporation, partnership or other entity which we have reasonable grounds to believe and do believe can make representations with respect to itself to substantially the same effect as the representations set forth herein. “Eligible Dealer” means any corporation or other entity the principal business of which is acting as a broker and/or dealer in securities. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Indenture dated as of [________ __, ____], between WF Card Issuance Trust and U.S. Bank National Association, as indenture trustee.

(i) In the case of an issuance of obligations that is subject to 17 CFR part 229, subpart 229.1100 (Regulation AB of the Securities and Exchange Commission (Regulation AB)), the documents shall require that, on or prior to issuance of obligations and at the time of delivery of any periodic distribution report and, in any event, at least once per calendar quarter, while obligations are outstanding, information about the obligations and the securitized financial assets shall be disclosed to all potential investors at the financial asset or pool level, as appropriate for the financial assets, and security-level to enable evaluation and analysis of the credit risk and performance of the obligations and financial assets. The documents shall require that such information and its disclosure, at a minimum, shall comply with the requirements of Regulation AB. Information that is unknown or not available to the sponsor or the issuer after reasonable investigation may be omitted if the issuer includes a statement in the offering documents disclosing that the specific information is otherwise unavailable;

(ii) On or prior to issuance of obligations, the structure of the securitization and the credit and payment performance of the obligations shall be disclosed, including the capital or tranche structure, the priority of payments and specific subordination features; representations and warranties made with respect to the financial assets, the remedies for and the time permitted for cure of any breach of representations and warranties, including the repurchase of financial assets, if applicable; liquidity facilities and any credit enhancements permitted by the FDIC Rule, any waterfall triggers or priority of payment reversal features; and policies governing delinquencies, servicer advances, loss mitigation, and write-offs of financial assets;

(iii) While obligations are outstanding, the Issuer shall provide to investors information with respect to the credit performance of the obligations and the financial assets, including periodic and cumulative financial asset performance data, delinquency and modification data for the financial assets, substitutions and removal of financial assets, servicer advances, as well as losses that were allocated to such tranche and remaining balance of financial assets supporting such tranche, if applicable, and the percentage of each tranche in relation to the securitization as a whole; and

(iv) The nature and amount of compensation paid to the originator, sponsor, rating agency or third-party advisor, any mortgage or other broker, and the servicer(s), and the extent to which any risk of loss on the underlying assets is retained by any of them for such securitization shall be disclosed. The Issuer shall provide to investors while any obligations are outstanding any changes to such information and the amount and nature of payments of any deferred compensation or similar arrangements to any of the parties.

(d) The obligations shall not be predominantly sold to an Affiliate (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary consolidated for accounting and capital purposes with the sponsor) or insider of the sponsor.

(e) To the extent serving as servicer or paying agent for the securitization, the sponsor shall not comingle amounts received with respect to the financial assets with its own assets except for the time, not to exceed two business days, necessary to clear any payments received.
