Section 11.01 Grant. (a) Buyer and Seller intend that the Transactions be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Assets and not loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Assets. However, to preserve and protect Buyer’s rights with respect to the Purchased Assets and under the Repurchase Documents if any Governmental Authority recharacterizes any Transaction with respect to a Purchased Asset as other than a sale, and as security for the performance by Seller of the Repurchase Obligations and the performance by the respective sellers under each Other Repurchase Agreement of the respective Other Facility Repurchase Obligations, (i) Seller hereby grants to Buyer a present Lien on and security interest in all of the right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under (A) the Purchased Assets (which for this purpose shall be deemed to include the items described in the proviso in the definition thereof), and (B) each Interest Rate Protection Agreement with each Hedge Counterparty relating to each Purchased Asset ((A) and (B) collectively, the “Collateral”) and (ii) Seller hereby grants to each Other Facility Buyer a present Lien on and security interest in all of the right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under the Collateral; and the transfer of the Purchased Assets to Buyer shall be deemed to constitute and confirm such grant, to secure the payment and performance by Seller of the Repurchase Obligations (including the obligation of Seller to pay the Repurchase Price, or if the related Transaction is recharacterized as a loan, to repay such loan for the Repurchase Price) and the performance by the respective sellers under each Other Repurchase Agreement of the respective Other Facility Repurchase Obligations.

The security interests of Buyer granted herein shall be, and Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer and all other Affiliated Hedge Counterparties that it is, a first priority perfected security interest. The security interests of the Other Facility Buyers granted herein shall be, and Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer and all other Affiliated Hedge Counterparties that it is, a perfected security interest subordinate in priority only to the security interests of Buyer. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) each Purchased Asset and each Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset secures the Repurchase Obligations of Seller with respect to all other Transactions and all other Purchased Assets, including any Purchased Assets that are junior in priority to the Purchased Asset in question, and the Other Facility Repurchase Obligations, and (ii) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Purchased Asset or Interest Rate Protection Agreement relating to a Purchased Asset will be released from Buyer’s or any Other Facility Buyer’s Lien or transferred to Seller until the Repurchase Obligations and all Other Facility Repurchase Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full.
