(y) There is nothing in the nature of the Assets or properties of the Borrower or in the conduct of its business and operations that, to the knowledge of the Borrower, could be reasonably likely to impair the ability of any Conduit Lender to rely on Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act for its exemption thereunder.”
The parties hereto agree that, effective as of the date hereof, Section 9.06(a) of the Credit Agreement shall be amended by adding the following at the end thereof:
“The Borrower hereby agrees and consents to the pledge, assignment and/or granting of a security interest by each Conduit Lender in or of all of its rights under, interest in, title to and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Documents to its collateral agent or trustee under such Conduit Lender’s commercial paper note program; provided, no such pledge, assignment or granting of security interest shall release any Conduit Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any pledgee, assignee or secured party for such Conduit Lender as a party hereto.”
