Each Note
shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Notes
set forth in Exhibit X-0, Xxxxxxx X-0, Exhibit X-0, Xxxxxxx X-0, Exhibit B and
Exhibit C are part of the terms of this Indenture.
Section
2.02 Execution, Authentication
and Delivery. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the
Issuer by any of its Authorized Officers. The signature of any such
Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile.
Notes
bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at any time
Authorized Officers of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the
date of such Notes.
The
Indenture Trustee shall upon Issuer Order authenticate and deliver Class A-1

A-2 Notes for original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $263,000,000,

for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the

Section

Section
2.04 Registration; Registration
of Transfer and Exchange. The Issuer shall cause to be kept a
register (the “Note
Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and
the registration of transfers of Notes. The Indenture Trustee
initially shall be the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and
transfers of Notes as herein provided. Upon any resignation of any
Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects
not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note
Registrar. If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed
by the Issuer as Note Registrar, the Issuer will give the Indenture Trustee
prompt written notice of the appointment of such Note Registrar and of the
location, and any change in the location, of the Note Register, and the
Indenture Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at all
reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof, and the Indenture Trustee shall
have the right to conclusively rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the
Note Registrar by an Executive Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of
the Holders of the Notes and the principal amounts and number of such
Notes.
Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of
the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.02, if the
requirements of Section 8-401(a) of
the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and the Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the
same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal
amount.
At the
option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Class
in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon
surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or
agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, if the
requirements of Section 8-401(a) of
the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee, without
having to verify that the requirements of Section 8-401(a) have
been met, shall authenticate and the Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture
Trustee, the Notes that the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.
All Notes
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid
obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration
of transfer or exchange. Every Note presented or surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible
guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, which
requirements include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer
Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other
“signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Note Registrar in
addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Exchange
Act.
No
service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes,
other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.03 or 9.05 not involving
any transfer.
(2011-A
Indenture)
11
The
preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not be
required to make and the Note Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges
of Notes selected for redemption or of any Note for a period of 15 days
preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Note.
Any Notes
retained by the Issuer or a Person that is considered the same person as the
Issuer for United States federal income tax purposes may not be transferred to
another Person (other than a Person that is considered the same person as the
Issuer for United States federal income tax purposes) unless the Administrator
shall cause an Opinion of Counsel to be delivered to the Depositor and the
Indenture Trustee at such time stating that either (x) such Notes will be debt
for United States federal income tax purposes or (y) that the sale of such Notes
to a Person unrelated to the Issuer or Depositor will not cause the Issuer to be
treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a
corporation. With respect to any transfer for which the Opinion of
Counsel provided pursuant to the preceding sentence is as described in clause
(y), the sale or transfer of such Notes must be to a Person who is a United
States Person (within the meaning of the Code). In addition, if for
tax or other reasons it may be necessary to track such Notes (e.g., if the Notes
have original issue discount), tracking conditions such as requiring that such
Notes be in definitive registered form may be required by the Administrator as a
condition to such transfer. The Indenture Trustee shall have no duty to monitor
the compliance of the provisions of this paragraph and may conclusively rely on
the Administrator to do the same.
No Note,
or any interest therein, may be purchased by or transferred to an “employee
benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA
that is subject to Title I of ERISA, a “plan” described in Section 4975(e)(1)
of the Code that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code , any entity that is
deemed to hold “plan assets” of any of the foregoing by reason of an employee
benefit plan’s or other plan’s investment in such entity, or any governmental,
non-U.S. or church plan subject to applicable law that is substantially similar
to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, unless such purchaser
or transferee represents, warrants and covenants that its purchase and holding
of such Note, throughout the period that it holds such Note, is and will be,
eligible for relief under Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA or Section 4975(d)(20) of
the Code; Department of Labor prohibited transaction class exemption (“PTCE”)
90-1; PTCE 96-23; PTCE 95-60; PTCE 91-38; PTCE 84-14 or another applicable
prohibited transaction exemption (or in the case of a governmental, non-U.S. or
church plan, subject to law that is substantially similar to Section 406 of
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, a similar type of exemption or other
applicable relief). By its acquisition of a Note in book-entry form
or any interest therein, each transferee will be deemed to have represented,
warranted and covenanted that it satisfies the foregoing requirements and the
Indenture Trustee may rely conclusively on the same for purposes
hereof.
The
provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the transfer of
Notes.
Section
2.05 [Reserved].

Section
2.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
or Stolen Notes. If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to
the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is
delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required
by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee 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, and provided that the
requirements of Section 8-405 of the
UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and upon an Issuer Order the Indenture
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class;
provided, however, that if any
such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become
or within 15 days shall be due and payable, or shall have been called for
redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or upon the Redemption
Date without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such
replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a bona fide
purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued
presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the
Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from
such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such
Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the
security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost
or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection
therewith.
Upon the
issuance of any replacement Note under this Section, the Issuer may require the
payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
reasonable expenses (including the fees, expenses and indemnities of the
Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.
Every
replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and
shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.
The
provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall 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
2.07 Persons Deemed
Owners. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer
of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or
the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered
(as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of
receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for
all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on
the Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants; and
(e) whenever
this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions

respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection with any payments
made by it on any Notes and any withholding of taxes therefrom.
The
Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any
Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such
Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts
as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such
payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such money.
Subject
to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the
Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due
with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount
has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid upon
Issuer Request to the Issuer; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but
only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of
the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money
shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such
Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall at the
expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper
published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day

Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer,
any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not
limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been
called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or
interest in moneys due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the
records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of
record for each such Holder).

herein provided.

action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Indenture.

the consent of such Holder.
Section
5.08 Restoration of Rights and
Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has
instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture

shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as
though no such Proceeding had been instituted.
Section
5.09 Rights and Remedies
Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or

5.10 Delay or Omission Not a
Waiver. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee, or any

trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:
(a) such
direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this
Indenture;
(b) subject
to the express terms of Section 5.04, any
direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall
be by Holders of Notes representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount
of the Controlling Class of Notes;
(c) if
the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have
been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Trust Estate

Notes to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no force and effect;

Notwithstanding
the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section, subject to Section 6.01,

the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder,
respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default

such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured

deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this
Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or
Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law
wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the

that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of

Section
6.01 Duties of Indenture
Trustee.
(a) If
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which a Responsible
Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge, the Indenture Trustee
shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the
same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own
affairs.
Except
during the continuance of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of
the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge, the Indenture Trustee undertakes to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Indenture against the Indenture Trustee. In the absence of bad faith
or negligence on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
therein, upon the face value of the certificates, reports, resolutions,
documents, orders, opinions or other instruments furnished to the Indenture
Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however,
that the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content
of any such resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order
or other instrument; however, the Indenture Trustee shall examine the
certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture. If any such instrument is found not to conform
in any material respect to the requirements of this Agreement, the Indenture
Trustee shall notify the Noteholders of such instrument in the event that the
Indenture Trustee, after so requesting, does not receive a satisfactorily
corrected instrument.
(b) The
Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except
that:
(i) this
paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this
Section;
(2011-A
Indenture)
37
(ii) the
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee
was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(iii) the
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or
omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or any other Basic
Documents.
(c) Every
provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Indenture Trustee is
subject to this Section.
(d) The
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for indebtedness evidenced by or arising
under any of the Basic Documents, including principal of or interest on the
Notes, or interest on any money received by it except as the Indenture Trustee
may agree in writing with the Issuer.
(e) Money
held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Indenture or the Sale
and Servicing Agreement.
(f) No
provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to advance,
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment
of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it.
(g) Every
provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability
of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the
provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA.
(h) In
no event shall the Indenture Trustee be required to perform, or be responsible
for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer or any
other party under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(i) The
Indenture Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing, or
depositing of this Indenture or any agreement referred to herein or any
financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or
to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to
any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (ii) to see to
any insurance, or (iii) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax,
assessment, or other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind
owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the Trust
Fund.
The
Indenture Trustee, or a Responsible Officer thereof, shall only be charged with
actual knowledge of any default or an Event of Default if a Responsible Officer
actually knows of such default or Event of Default or the Indenture Trustee
receives written notice of such default or Event of Default from the Issuer, the
Servicer or Noteholders owning Notes aggregating not less than 10% of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture
Trustee shall not be required to take notice and in the absence of such actual
notice and knowledge, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that there
is no such default or Event of Default.

faith in reliance on an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel from the
appropriate party. The right of the Indenture Trustee to perform any

appointed by the Indenture Trustee with due care.
(d) The
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take
in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers;
provided, that the Indenture Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith.
(e) The
Indenture Trustee may consult, at the Issuer’s expense and paid in accordance
with Section
4.16 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or, to the extent not so paid,
in accordance with and in the priority set forth in Section 5.05(b) of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement, with counsel, and the advice or opinion of
counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes
shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in
respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith
and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.
(f)

as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or collateral agent, the rights and protections
afforded to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 shall be afforded
to such Paying Agent, Note Registrar or collateral agent.
(g) The
Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or
powers vested in it by this Indenture or to institute, conduct or defend any
litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of
any of the Noteholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless
such Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security
or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred
therein or thereby;
(h) The
right of the Indenture Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in
this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Indenture Trustee shall
not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of such act; and

39
(i)
The Indenture Trustee shall not be
required to give any bond or surety in respect of the powers granted
hereunder.
Section
6.03 Individual Rights of
Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee in its individual or
any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise
deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it
were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or
co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee
must comply with Section
6.11.
Section
6.04 Indenture Trustee’s
Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for
and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture,
the Trust Estate or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use
of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any
statement of the Issuer in the Indenture, any Basic Document or in any document
issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the
Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication.
Section
6.05 Notice of
Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and if it is
actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of the Default within thirty (30)
days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of
or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption
provisions of such Note), the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice to
Noteholders if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good
faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of
Noteholders.
Section
6.06 Reports by Indenture Trustee
to Holders. Solely from information provided by the Servicer,
the Indenture Trustee shall make available to each Noteholder such information
as may be required to enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income
tax returns.
Section
6.07 Compensation and
Indemnity. The Issuer shall cause the Servicer to pay to the
Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services.
The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on
compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall cause the
Servicer to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to
the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include but are not
limited to the reasonable out-of-pocket compensation and expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and
experts. The Issuer shall cause the Servicer to indemnify the Indenture Trustee
against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees and
expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and
the performance of its duties hereunder or under the Sale and Servicing
Agreement or under any other Basic Document or in connection with the Notes. The
Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Servicer promptly of any claim
for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify
the Issuer and the Servicer shall not relieve the Issuer or the Servicer of its
obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, defend
any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and the
Issuer shall, or shall cause the Administrator to, pay the fees and expenses of
such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor the Servicer need reimburse any expense or
indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture
Trustee through the Indenture Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or
bad faith. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special,
indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but
not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of
the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
action.

The
Issuer’s obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section shall
survive the discharge of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of
the Indenture Trustee. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the
occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.01(iv) or
(v) with
respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.
Section
6.08 Replacement of Indenture
Trustee. No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee
and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become effective until
the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.08.
The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer and each
Rating Agency. The Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the
Controlling Class of Notes may remove the Indenture Trustee by notifying the
Indenture Trustee if:
(a) the
Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section
6.11;
(b) the
Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;
(c) a
receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its
property;
(d) the

(e) the
Indenture Trustee breaches any representation, warranty or covenant made by it
under any Basic Document.
If the
Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of
Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being
referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly
appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.
A
successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and the Issuer. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective,
and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties
of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The retiring Indenture Trustee
shall be paid all amounts owed to it upon its resignation or removal. The
successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to
Noteholders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property
held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee. The retiring
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any Successor
Indenture Trustee.
If a
successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 45 days after the
retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture
Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the
Controlling Class of Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

If the
Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any
Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture
Trustee.
Notwithstanding
the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s
and the Administrator’s obligations under Section 6.07 shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.
Section
6.09 Successor Indenture Trustee
by Merger. If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges
or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust
business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the
resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be
the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that such corporation or banking
association shall be qualified and eligible under Section
6.11.
In case
at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation
to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture
any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such
successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication
of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case
at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor
to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any
predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee;
and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force that it is
anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the
Indenture Trustee shall have.
Section
6.10 Appointment of Co-Indenture
Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.
(a) Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting
any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate
may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee shall have the power and may
execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a
co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or
any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity
and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any
part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers,
duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider
necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no
notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 6.08
hereof.

separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:

42
(i) all
rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture
Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the
Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being
understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act
separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the
extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or
acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or
any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed
singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of
the Indenture Trustee;
(ii) no
trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of
any other trustee hereunder; and
(iii) the

notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed
to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in
its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this
Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to
the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the
Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the
Indenture Trustee.

separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture Trustee,
its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not
prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on
its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die,

the Servicer or the Administrator, within 15 days after receipt by the Note
Registrar of a written request therefrom, a list of the names and addresses of
the Noteholders of any Class as of the most recent Record Date. If
three or more Noteholders of any Class, or one or more Holders of such Class

required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person,
it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the

Any
certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based,
insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to the matters upon which such officer’s certificate or opinion is
based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of
Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a
certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the
Servicer, either Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, stating that the
information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Servicer, the applicable Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, unless such
counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous.
Where any
Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests,
consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this

instrument.
Whenever
in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report
to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any
document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of
the Issuer’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and
accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective
date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and
opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to
the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency
of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to
affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any
statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article
VI.
Section
11.03 Acts of
Noteholders.
(a) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be

tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in
writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall
become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the
Indenture Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer.
Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders
signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such
instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01)
conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the
manner provided in this Section.

Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such
action is made upon such Note.

Section
11.05 Notices to Noteholders;
Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for notice to
Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless
otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class,
postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at such Holder’s
address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and
not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In
any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to
mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular
Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall
conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.
(2011-A
Indenture)
56
Where
this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after
the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of
notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing
shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such a waiver.
In case,
by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike,
work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any
event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any
provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be
satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving
of such notice.
Where
this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such
notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and
shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of
Default.
Section
11.06 Alternate Payment and Notice
Provisions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or
any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement with
any Holder of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice by the
Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the
methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices, provided
that the Issuer agrees to pay any additional expenses incurred as a result of
such alternative payment or notice provision. The Issuer will furnish to the
Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee will
cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such
agreements. The Indenture Trustee shall provide a copy of any request made
pursuant to this Section 11.06 to the
Owner Trustee.

provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(2011-A

Section
11.11 Legal
Holidays. In any case where the date on which any payment is
due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of
the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date, but may be

a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee
or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in

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 Article VI, VII and VIII of the Trust
Agreement.
(2011-A
Indenture)

(b) In
furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, to the extent the
Depositor enters into other securitization transactions, each Noteholder, by
accepting a Note, acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right, title or
interest in or to any assets or interests therein of the Depositor (other than
the Trust Estate and Reserve Account relating to this transaction) conveyed or
purported to be conveyed by the Depositor to another securitization trust or
other Person or Persons in connection therewith (whether by way of a sale,
capital contribution or by virtue of the granting of a lien) (“Other
Assets”). To the extent that, notwithstanding the agreements
and provisions contained herein, a Noteholder either (i) asserts an
interest or claim to, or benefit from, Other Assets, whether asserted against or
through the Depositor or any other Person owned by the Depositor, or (ii) is
deemed to have any such interest, claim or benefit in or from Other Assets,
whether by operation of law, legal process, pursuant to applicable provisions of
insolvency laws or otherwise (including by virtue of Section 1111(b) of the
Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor provision having similar effect under
the Bankruptcy Code), and whether deemed asserted against or through the
Depositor or any other Person owned by the Depositor, then each Noteholder, by
accepting a Note, further acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim
or benefit in or from Other Assets is and shall be expressly subordinated to the
indefeasible payment in full of all obligations and liabilities of the Depositor
which, under the terms of the relevant documents relating to the securitization
of such Other Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the benefits of,
or otherwise secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement
or security interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to priority of
distribution or application under applicable law, including insolvency laws, and
whether asserted against Depositor or any other Person owned by the Depositor),
including the payment of post-petition interest on such other obligations and
liabilities. This subordination agreement shall be deemed a
subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code. Each Noteholder, by acceptance of a Note, further acknowledges
and agrees that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach of this paragraph
and the terms of this paragraph may be enforced by an action for specific
performance. The provisions of this paragraph shall be for the third
party benefit of those entitled to rely thereon and shall survive the
termination of this Indenture.
Section
11.16 No
Petition. The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this
Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note or a beneficial interest in
a Note, hereby covenant and agree that they will not at any time institute
against the Issuer or the Depositor, or join in any institution against the
Issuer or the Depositor, of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United
States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any
obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any of the Basic
Documents.
Section
11.17 Inspection. The
Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any
representative of the Indenture Trustee, during the Issuer’s normal business
hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports and other papers of
the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be
audited by Independent certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuer’s
affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer’s officers, employees and
Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as
often as may be reasonably requested; provided, however, that the
Indenture Trustee may only cause the books of the Issuer to be audited on an
annual basis, unless there occurs an Event of Default hereunder. The Indenture
Trustee shall, and shall cause its representatives to, hold in confidence all
such information except to the extent such information is publicly available or
such disclosure may be required by law (and all reasonable applications for
confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to the extent that the
Indenture Trustee may reasonably determine with the advice of counsel and after
consultation with the Issuer that such disclosure is consistent with its
obligations hereunder.

Section
11.18 Conflict with Trust

provision shall control.

of this Indenture.

the address of such Person as it appears on the Note Register as of the
applicable Record Date without requiring that this Note be submitted for

Registered Holder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such Payment Date by
notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Payment Date, and the

amended, and thereupon one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and in
the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee
or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange subject to
certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse
may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the
Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith,
against (i) the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee
in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the
Issuer, including the Seller or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent,
officer, director or employee of the Seller, the Servicer, Indenture Trustee or

installment or call owing to such entity. Each Noteholder or Note
Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial
interest in a Note, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the
Noteholder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency,
loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the
benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner will not at any
time institute against the Issuer or the Depositor, or join in any institution

exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or

the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the

sentence of Section 3.01 of the Indenture. Interest on this Note will accrue for
each Payment Date from and including the 15th day of
the month preceding the month of such Payment Date (or, in the case of the first

the month of such Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the
basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months. Such

interest in a Note, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the

loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing
contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the
benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner will not at any

obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of
the Notes. The Class C Notes are subject to all terms of the
Indenture.
6 Denominations
of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof.
(2011-A
Indenture)
C-1-2
The Class
C Notes are and will be secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor
as provided in the Indenture. The Class C Notes are subordinated in
right of payment to the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, to the extent
provided in the Indenture.
Principal
of the Class C Notes will be payable on each Payment Date in an amount described
on the face hereof. “Payment Date” means the 15th day of
each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business Day, commencing March 15, 2011.
As
described above, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due
and payable on the earlier of the Class C Maturity Date and the Redemption Date,
if any, pursuant to Article X of the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if an Event of Default occurs, the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes
representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Controlling Class of Notes may declare the Notes to be immediately due and
payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture. All principal
payments on the Class C Notes shall be made pro rata to the Class C Noteholders
entitled thereto.
Payments
of interest on this Note due and payable on each Payment Date, together with the
installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full payment of this
Note, shall be made by check mailed to the Person whose name appears as the
Registered Holder of this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) on the Note
Register as of the close of business on each Record Date, except that with
respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the
Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be
made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated
by such nominee. Such checks shall be mailed to the Person entitled thereto at
the address of such Person as it appears on the Note Register as of the
applicable Record Date without requiring that this Note be submitted for
notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any
one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Payment Date
shall be binding upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as
provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid
principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee, in
the name of and on behalf of the Issuer, will notify the Person who was the
Registered Holder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such Payment Date by
notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Payment Date, and the
amount then due and payable shall be payable only upon presentation and
surrender of this Note at the Indenture Trustee’s Corporate Trust Office or at
the office of the Indenture Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes located
in The City of New York.
The
Issuer shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the Class C
Rate to the extent lawful.
As
provided in the Indenture and subject to the limitations set forth therein and
on the face hereof, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note
Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office
or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by,
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible
guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, which
requirements include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer
Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee program”
as may be determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution
for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and thereupon one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and in
the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee
or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any registration of
transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange subject to
certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse
may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the
Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith,
against (i) the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee
in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the

officer, director or employee of the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee
or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial
interest in the Issuer, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the

expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be
fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid
consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity. Each Noteholder or Note
Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial
interest in a Note, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the

contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against,
the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the
benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner will not at any

arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.
The
Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Note is issued with the intention

indebtedness secured by the Trust Estate. Each Noteholder, by acceptance of a
Note (and each Note Owner by acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note),
agrees to treat the Notes (other than Notes, if any, retained by the Issuer or
Person considered to be the same person as the Issuer for United States federal
income tax purposes) for such purposes as indebtedness.

Notes representing specified percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the
Controlling Class of Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive
compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or
waiver by the Holder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall
be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee

without the consent of Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

Indenture.

agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, in the case of
an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder shall have no claim against
any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however,
