of Boston, both individually and as Agent Bank. Any amendment
undertaken pursuant to this paragraph 15(b) shall not relate to or
affect Intervals listed on Schedules C, D or E attached hereto, nor
shall it in any way impair or amend the rights of the 1992 Purchaser,
the 1993-A Trustee or the 1995 Collateral Agent under this Agreement.
An executed copy of any Amendment undertaken pursuant to this
paragraph 15(b) shall be provided to all parties to this Agreement."

of FCI, FAC, the 1993-A Trustee or the 1995 Collateral Agent,
as the case may be, as the beneficial owner or the assignee of
the beneficial ownership of such Properties at such time;
except, however, if Nominee has been notified by a Bank in
writing that a default has occurred under a Loan Agreement, as
described more fully in Section 12 of this Agreement, Nominee
shall convey title to the Properties underlying the defaulted
Loan Agreement in accordance with the written instructions of
the related Bank and first lienholder with respect thereto."
