(ii) all rights of the Issuer as purchaser under the Receivables Pooling Agreement and of the Receivables Seller’s rights under the Receivables Sale Agreement, including, without limitation, the Issuer’s rights as assignee of the Depositor’s rights under the Receivables Sale Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to enforce the obligations of the Receivables Seller and the Servicer under the Receivables Sale Agreement with respect to the Receivables;

(iii) the Trust Accounts, and all amounts and property on deposit or credited to the Trust Accounts (excluding investment earnings thereon) from time to time (whether or not constituting or derived from payments, collections or recoveries received, made or realized in respect of the Receivables);

(iv) all rights of the Issuer under any Derivative Agreement or Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement;

(v) all right, title and interest of the Issuer as assignee of the Depositor, the Receivables Seller and the Servicer to rights to payment on the Receivables with respect to each Designated Pool under each related Designated Servicing Agreement on the related Sale Dates of the Receivables, and under all related documents, instruments and agreements pursuant to which the Receivables Seller acquired, or acquired an interest in, any of the Receivables;

(vi) all other monies, securities, reserves and other property now or at any time in the possession of the Indenture Trustee or its bailee, agent or custodian and relating to any of the foregoing; and

(vii) all present and future claims, demands, causes and choses in action in respect of any and all of the foregoing and all payments on or under, and all proceeds of every kind and nature whatsoever in respect of, any and all of the foregoing and all payments on or under, and all proceeds of every kind and nature whatsoever in conversion thereof, voluntary or involuntary, into cash or other liquid property, all cash proceeds, accounts, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances, checks, deposit accounts, rights to payment of any and every kind, and other forms of obligations and receivables, instruments and other property which at any time constitute all or part of or are included in the proceeds of any of the foregoing.

The Security Interest in the Trust Estate is Granted to secure the Notes issued pursuant to this Indenture (and the obligations under this Indenture, any Indenture Supplement and any applicable Derivative Agreement, Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement and/or Liquidity Facility) equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction between any Note and any other Note by reason of difference in time of issuance or otherwise, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture or in any Indenture Supplement, and to secure (1) the payment of all amounts due on such Notes (and the obligations under any applicable Derivative Agreement, Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement and/or Liquidity Facility) in accordance with their terms, (2) the payment of all other sums payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement and (3) compliance by the Issuer with the provisions of this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement. This Indenture, as it may be supplemented, including by each Indenture Supplement, is a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC.

The Indenture Trustee acknowledges the Grant of such Security Interest, and agrees to perform the duties herein in accordance with the terms hereof. The Indenture Trustee also acknowledges that the Grant of any Security Interest in a Derivative Agreement or Derivative Collateral Account is solely for the purpose of securing the related Series of Notes (and the related obligations under this Indenture, any related Indenture Supplement, such Derivative Agreement and any related Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement). Although such Derivative Agreement, the Derivative Collateral Account and the amounts and property on deposit or credited to the Derivative Collateral Account may, in the exercise of remedies under this Indenture and any related Indenture Supplement, be disposed of as provided in this Indenture, any related Indenture

Supplement and such Derivative Agreement, the exercise of remedies under such Derivative Agreement against any such amounts and property in the Derivative Collateral Account shall be strictly in accordance with the terms set forth in such Derivative Agreement.

The Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, and its assignees, successors and designees to file one or more UCC financing statements, financing statement amendments and continuation statements to perfect the security interest Granted above. In addition, the Issuer hereby consents to the filing of a financing statement describing the Collateral covered thereby as “all assets of the Debtor, now owned or hereafter acquired,” or such similar language as the Administrator, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, and its assignees, successors and designees may deem appropriate.

The Issuer hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Indenture Trustee and any officer or agent thereof, effective following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Issuer and in the name of the Issuer, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Indenture and each Indenture Supplement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Indenture, each Indenture Supplement, the Receivables Sale Agreement and the Receivables Pooling Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer hereby gives the Indenture Trustee the power and right (1) to take possession of and endorse and collect any wired funds, checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable Granted by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee from Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae, the Obligors on underlying Mortgage Loans, the Receivables Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, or out of the related Pools, (2) to file any claim or proceeding in any court of law or equity or take any other action otherwise deemed appropriate by the Indenture Trustee for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due from Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae, the Obligors on underlying Mortgage Loans or the Receivables Seller or the Servicer under such Receivable or out of the related Pools whenever payable and to enforce any other right in respect of any Receivable Granted by the Issuer or related to the Trust Estate, (3) to direct Xxxxxxx Mac, Xxxxxx Xxx or the Servicer to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due under the Receivable Granted by the Issuer directly to the Indenture Trustee or as the Indenture Trustee shall direct, (4) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due from Xxxxxxx Mac, Xxxxxx Xxx or the Servicer at any time in respect of or arising out of any Receivable Granted by the Issuer, out of the related Pools, (5) to sign and endorse any assignments, notices and other documents in connection with the Receivables Granted by the Issuer or the Trust Estate, and (6) to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with the Receivables Granted by the Issuer and the Trust Estate as fully and completely as though the Indenture Trustee were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Indenture Trustee’s option and at the expense of the Issuer, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Indenture Trustee deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Receivable Granted by the Issuer or the Trust Estate and the Indenture Trustee’s and the Issuer’s respective security interests and ownership interests therein and to effect the intent of this Indenture, all as fully and effectively as the Issuer might do. Nothing contained herein shall in any way be deemed to be a grant of power or authority to the Indenture Trustee or any officer or agent thereof to take any of the actions described in this paragraph with respect to any underlying Obligor under any Mortgage Loan in any Pool, for which an Advance was made.

The parties hereto intend that the Security Interest Granted under this Indenture shall give the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties a first priority perfected security interest in, to and under the Collateral, and all other property described in this Indenture as a part of the Trust Estate and all proceeds of any of the foregoing in order to secure the obligations of the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders

under the Notes, and to any Derivative Counterparty, Supplemental Credit Enhancement Provider and/or any Liquidity Provider under this Indenture, the related Indenture Supplement and all of the other Transaction Documents. The Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have all the rights, powers and privileges of a secured party under the UCC. The Issuer agrees to execute and file all filings (including filings under the UCC) and take all other actions reasonably necessary in any jurisdiction to provide third parties with notice of the Security Interest Granted pursuant to this Indenture and to perfect such Security Interest under the UCC. By their execution of and/or consent to this Indenture and/or acceptance of the Notes and other benefits hereunder, the Issuer hereby directs and the Secured Parties hereby grant the Indenture Trustee authority to enter into and deliver each Consent on behalf of such Secured Parties and act exclusively for such Secured Parties with respect to Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx Mac as such action relates to each Consent, and each Secured Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Consent and any amendments thereto shall be binding on such parties as if they were original signatories thereto.

The Security Interest granted pursuant to this Indenture is subject and subordinate, in each and every respect, to all rights, powers, and prerogatives of Xxxxxxx Mac under and in connection with (i) the terms and conditions of any Consent Agreement, entered into from time to time following the date hereof, (a “Consent Agreement”), with respect to the “Reimbursement Assignments and Pledge” of the “Reimbursement Rights” (as such terms are defined in such Consent Agreement), by and among Xxxxxxx Mac, Ditech, Depositor, Issuer, Indenture Trustee, and the Administrative Agent, (ii) the terms and conditions of the Purchase Documents as defined in the Xxxxxxx Mac Single Family Seller/Servicer Guide, as it may be amended from time to time, other than as set forth pursuant to the express terms and provisions of the Consent Agreement, and (iii) all claims of Xxxxxxx Mac arising out of or relating to any and all breaches, defaults and outstanding obligations of Ditech to Xxxxxxx Mac.

The Security Interest described herein are subject and subordinate to all rights, powers, and prerogatives of Xxxxxx Xxx under and in connection with (i) the terms and conditions of that certain Acknowledgment Agreement With Respect to Servicing Advance Receivables, by and among Xxxxxx Mae, Ditech, Depositor, Issuer, Indenture Trustee, and the Administrative Agent, and (ii) the Mortgage Selling and Servicing Contract, the Xxxxxx Xxx Selling Guide, the Xxxxxx Mae Servicing Guide and any supplemental servicing instructions or directives provided by Xxxxxx Xxx, all applicable master agreements (including applicable MBS pool purchase contracts and variances), recourse agreements, repurchase agreements, indemnification agreements, loss‑sharing agreements, and any other agreements between Xxxxxx Mae and Ditech, and all as amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time (collectively, the “Xxxxxx Xxx Lender Contract”), which rights, powers, and prerogatives include, without limitation, the right of Xxxxxx Xxx to terminate the Xxxxxx Mae Lender Contract with or without cause.

Any such certificate or opinion of, or representation by, counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations 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 Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such Action will 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 any such record (and the Action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments and so voting at any meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, will be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 11.1) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.5.

(d) Any Action by a Noteholder will bind all subsequent Noteholders of such Noteholder’s Note, in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon whether or not notation of such Action is made upon such Note.

(e) Without limiting the foregoing, a Noteholder entitled hereunder to take any Action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or Action taken by a Noteholder or its agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this paragraph shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Noteholders of each such different part.

(f) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless otherwise specified pursuant to one or more Indenture Supplements, a Noteholder, including a Depository that is the Noteholder of a Global Note representing Book-Entry Notes, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any Action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by a Noteholder, and a Depository that is the Noteholder of a Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in or security entitlements to any such Global Note through such Depository’s standing instructions and customary practices.

No such Action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than ninety (90) days after such record date.

Section 1.7.	Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

(a) Where this Indenture, any Indenture Supplement or any Note provides for notice to registered Noteholders of any event, such notice will be sufficiently given (unless expressly provided otherwise herein, in such Indenture Supplement or in such Note) if in writing and mailed by overnight courier, sent by facsimile, sent by electronic transmission or personally delivered to each Noteholder of a Note affected by such event, at such Noteholder’s address as it appears in 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, facsimile, electronic transmission or delivery, none of the failure to mail, send by facsimile, send by electronic transmission or deliver such notice, or 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, sent by 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 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. Waivers of notice by Noteholders will be filed with the Indenture Trustee, but 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 Noteholder of a 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 and the Issuer will be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

(c) Where this Indenture provides for notice to each 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.


Section 1.8.	Administrative Agent.

(b) Rights of Initial VFN Noteholders.

(c) Nature of Duties.

(b) Notification of Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae. The Servicer hereby represents and warrants that it has notified (i) Xxxxxxx Mac with respect to the Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools that are Xxxxxxx Mac Pools as of the Closing Date, and (ii) Xxxxxx Xxx with respect to the Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools that are Xxxxxx Mae Pools as of the Closing Date, of the assignment, transfer of ownership and pledge of Receivables related to such Servicing Agreements and such Pools, including the related Advance Reimbursement Amounts, and that each related Receivable is subject to the Indenture Trustee’s Security Interest and that none of the Advances related to the Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools that are Xxxxxxx Mac Pools are subject to any right of set-off or other claim of Xxxxxxx Mac, pursuant to the Xxxxxxx Mac Consent (if any), and that none of the Advances related to the Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools that are Xxxxxx Mae Pools are subject to any right of set-off or other claim of Xxxxxx Xxx, pursuant to the Xxxxxx Mae Acknowledgment. The Consent

indicating the Security Interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables relating to a particular Designated Pool shall be deleted, rescinded or modified when, and only when, all related Receivables have been paid in full or have been released from such Security Interest pursuant to this Indenture. In addition, each Determination Date Administrator Report shall include a list of the Receivables, and any such list or related trial balance or Schedule of Receivables, and any other list of the Receivables provided by the Servicer, the Receivables Seller or the Issuer to any third party (other than any lists provided from time to time solely to Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae) shall include language indicating that the Receivables identified therein are subject to the Indenture Trustee’s Security Interest.

(i) Addition of Designated Servicing Agreements or Designated Pools.

(A) The Receivables Seller or the Servicer may at any time designate any Servicing Agreement relating to a Facility Eligible Pool as a Designated Servicing Agreement, or any Facility Eligible Pool serviced under a Designated Servicing Agreement as a Designated Pool under the Receivables Sale Agreement, whereupon such Servicing Agreement or Facility Eligible Pool shall become a “Designated Servicing Agreement” or “Designated Pool” for purposes of this Indenture if (1) the Administrator has certified in writing to the Indenture Trustee that such Servicing Agreement relates to a Facility Eligible Pool or such Pool is a Facility Eligible Pool, as applicable, (2) the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion) has approved such Servicing Agreement or Pool for addition and (3) written notice of such addition has been provided to the Note Rating Agencies for Outstanding Notes. Prior to the addition of any Designated Servicing Agreement or Pool as provided in this Section 2.1(c), the Administrator must certify to the Indenture Trustee in writing that it has filed all financing statements or amendments to financing statements to ensure that the Indenture Trustee’s Security Interest in any Receivables related to any additional Designated Servicing Agreements or Designated Pools is perfected and first priority.

(B) If any Servicing Agreements are added as Designated Servicing Agreements or Pools are added as Designated Pools, the Administrator shall update the Designated Servicing Agreement Schedule and furnish it to the Indenture Trustee, and the most recently furnished schedule shall be maintained by the Indenture Trustee as the definitive Designated Servicing Agreement Schedule.

(ii) Removal of Designated Servicing Agreements or Designated Pools.

(A) The Receivables Seller may remove any Servicing Agreements as a Designated Servicing Agreement or Pool as a Designated Pool under Section 2(c) of the Receivables Sale Agreement, or in the case of a Permitted Refinancing, one or more Receivables related to the Mortgage Loans attributable to one or more Designated Pools, whereupon such agreement or Pool shall no longer constitute a “Designated Servicing Agreement” or “Designated Pool” for purposes of this Indenture (except that, unless the Issuer conducts a Permitted Refinancing, Receivables related to Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to that agreement or under that Pool prior to its removal shall continue to be part of the Trust Estate, in which case the Receivables Seller may not assign to another Person any Receivables arising under that Servicing Agreement until all Receivables that arose under that Servicing Agreement or that Pool that are included in the Trust Estate shall

have been paid in full or sold in a Permitted Refinancing); provided, that no such removal, including any Permitted Refinancing, shall be permitted unless the Collateral Test is satisfied after such removal. Prior to removing any Designated Servicing Agreement or Designated Pool as provided in this Section 2.1(c), the Issuer must (1) receive prior written approval from the Administrative Agent, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion (other than the removal of any Designated Servicing Agreement on or after the Consent Withdrawal Date for the related Pool, in which case, the approval of the Administrative Agent shall not be required) and (2) send prior written notice of such removal to each Note Rating Agency.

(B) If any Servicing Agreements are removed as Designated Servicing Agreements or any Pools are removed as Designated Pools, the Administrator shall update the Designated Servicing Agreement Schedule and furnish it to the Indenture Trustee, and the most recently furnished schedule shall be maintained by the Indenture Trustee as the definitive Designated Servicing Agreement Schedule.

(d) Protection of Transfers to, and Back-up Security Interests of Depositor and Issuer. The Administrator shall take all actions as may be necessary to ensure that the Trust Estate is Granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. The Administrator, at its own expense, made all initial filings on or about the Closing Date hereunder and forwarded a copy of such filing or filings to the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer and the Administrator shall cause the filings to be amended from time to time to include the legends as specifically required by the Consents. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator, at its own expense, shall prepare and forward for filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings necessary under the relevant UCC to perfect and maintain the first priority status of the Indenture Trustee’s security interest in the Trust Estate, including without limitation (i) continuation statements, and (ii) such other statements as may be occasioned by (A) any change of name of any of the Receivables Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Issuer, (B) any change of location of the jurisdiction of any of the Receivables Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Issuer, (C) any transfer of any interest of the Receivables Seller, the Depositor or the Issuer in any item in the Trust Estate or (D) any change under the applicable UCC or other applicable laws. The Administrator shall enforce the Depositor’s obligations pursuant to the Receivables Pooling Agreement, and the Receivables Seller’s and the Servicer’s obligations pursuant to the Receivables Sale Agreement, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee.

The Administrator shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an updated Schedule 1 prior to the addition or deletion of any Servicing Agreement as a Designated Servicing Agreement or any Pool as a Designated Pool and the Indenture Trustee shall hold the most recently delivered version as the definitive Schedule 1. The Administrator represents and warrants, as of the Closing Date and as of the date any new Servicing Agreement is added as a Designated Servicing Agreement or any new Pool is added as a Designated Pool, that Schedule 1, as it may be updated by the Administrator from time to time and delivered to the Indenture Trustee, is a true, complete and accurate list of all Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools.

In addition, the Administrator shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an updated Schedule of Receivables on each Funding Date in electronic form, and the Indenture Trustee shall maintain the most recent Schedule of Receivables it receives, and send a copy to any Noteholder upon request.

The Administrator shall ensure that, from and after the time of the sale and/or contribution of the Initial Receivables and all Additional Receivables to the Depositor under the Receivables Sale Agreement and to the Issuer under the Receivables Pooling Agreement, and the Grant thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, any records (including any computer records and back‑up archives) maintained by or on behalf of the Receivables Seller or the Servicer that refer to any Receivable indicate clearly the interest of the Issuer and the Security Interest of the Indenture Trustee in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Issuer and subject to the Indenture Trustee’s Security Interest. Indication of the Issuer’s ownership of a Receivable and the Security Interest of the Indenture Trustee shall be deleted from or modified on such records when, and only when, such Receivable

has been paid in full, repurchased, or assigned by the Issuer and released by the Indenture Trustee from its Security Interest.


Section 2.3.	Indemnity Payments for Receivables Upon Breach.

(a) Upon discovery by the Issuer or the Administrator, or upon the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, of a breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Receivables Seller as to any Receivable set forth in Section 4(b) of the Receivables Sale Agreement, the party discovering or receiving actual notice of such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties hereto. Upon notice of such a breach, the Administrator shall enforce the Issuer’s rights to require the Receivables Seller to deposit the Indemnity Payment with respect to the affected Receivable(s) into the Collection and Funding Account.

(b) Unless repurchased by the Receivables Seller in a transaction contemplated by the Receivables Sale Agreement or transferred pursuant to a Permitted Refinancing, the Receivables shall remain in the Trust Estate, regardless of any receipt of an Indemnity Payment in the Collection and Funding Account. The sole remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders with respect to a breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Receivables Seller as to any Receivable set forth in Section 4(b) of the Receivables Sale Agreement shall be to enforce the obligation of the Issuer hereunder and the remedies of the Issuer (as assignee of the Depositor) against the Receivables Seller under the Receivables Sale Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the payment of any Indemnity Payment for any Receivable pursuant to this Section 2.3, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.2.

Funds deposited into a Sinking Fund Account on a Business Day after 1:30 p.m. New York City time will not be invested until the following Business Day. Investments held in Sinking Fund Permitted Investments in any Sinking Fund Account shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity (unless an Event of Default has occurred and has not been waived in accordance with terms hereof). Earnings on investment of funds in any Sinking Fund Account shall be remitted by the Indenture Trustee upon the Administrator’s request to the account or other location of the Administrator’s designation on the first Business Day of the month following the month in which such earnings on investment of funds is received; provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to the benefit of any income or gain in the Sinking Fund Accounts for the Business Day immediately preceding

each Interim Payment Date or Payment Date, as applicable. Any losses and investment expenses relating to any investment of funds in any Sinking Fund Account shall be for the account of the Administrator, which shall deposit or cause to be deposited the amount of such loss (to the extent not offset by income from other investments of funds in the related Sinking Fund Account) in the related Sinking Fund Account promptly upon the realization of such loss. The taxpayer identification number associated with each of the Sinking Fund Accounts shall be that of the Issuer, and the Issuer shall report for federal, state and local income tax purposes their respective portions of the income, if any, earned on funds in the relevant Sinking Fund Account. The Administrator hereby acknowledges that all amounts on deposit in each Sinking Fund Account (excluding investment earnings on deposit in the Sinking Fund Accounts) are held in trust by the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, subject to any express rights of the Issuer set forth herein, and shall remain at all times during the term of this Indenture under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee.

So long as the Indenture Trustee complies with the provisions of this Section 4.1, the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon by reason of investment performance, liquidation prior to stated maturity or otherwise. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity or the failure to be provided with timely written investment direction.

In order to comply with laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (“Applicable Law”), the Indenture Trustee is required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Indenture Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to provide to the Indenture Trustee upon its request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Indenture Trustee to comply with Applicable Law.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Noteholder of each Series by its acceptance of the related Note will be deemed to have agreed, that such Noteholder shall have no claim or interest in the amounts on deposit in any Trust Account created under this Indenture or any related Indenture Supplement related to an unrelated Series except as expressly provided herein or therein.

As of the Closing Date (i) the Issuer will be disregarded as an entity separate from its single owner (the “Single Owner”), which will be a domestic corporation, all within the meaning of Section 7701 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and (ii) the Trust Accounts will be maintained and controlled by the Indenture Trustee but the amounts on deposit in the Trust Accounts (including income, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such account) will be owned by the Single Owner for U.S. federal income tax reporting and withholding purposes (but, for the avoidance of doubt, (A) the amounts on deposit in the Trust Accounts will be subject to the lien granted to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Indenture and (B) the Issuer is the legal owner of the amounts on deposit in the Trust Accounts and not the Single Owner). The Issuer agrees to notify Xxxxx Fargo in writing promptly following any change in the status of the Issuer as an entity that is disregarded from a single owner that is a domestic corporation and will provide such tax documentation that is required under the Code, Treasury Regulations or similar provisions of local income tax provisions (together, the “Tax Law”) by any change in its status. As of the Closing Date, the Single Owner shall provide Xxxxx Fargo (as Paying Agent) with an IRS Form W-9 and any additional IRS forms and documentation needed to permit Xxxxx Fargo to fulfill its tax reporting obligations under the Tax Law with respect to the Trust Accounts and will thereafter provide such additional or updated IRS Forms and documentation as reasonably requested by Xxxxx Fargo or as required under the Tax Law. Xxxxx Fargo, both in its individual capacity and in its capacity as Paying Agent, shall have no liability to the Single Owner or any other person in connection with any tax withholding amounts paid or

withheld from the Trust Accounts pursuant to the Tax Law arising from the Single Owner’s or other person’s failure to timely provide an accurate, correct and complete IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation contemplated under this paragraph.

Xxxxx Fargo or its Affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be for Xxxxx Fargo’s economic self-interest for (a) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments and Sinking Fund Permitted Investments, (b) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments and Sinking Fund Permitted Investments and (c) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments and Sinking Fund Permitted Investments (but in any case not as an advisor or agent for the Issuer or any similar capacity for the Issuer). Such compensation is not payable or reimbursable under this Indenture.


Section 4.2.	Collections and Disbursements of Advances by Servicer.

(a) The Servicer shall deposit into the Collection and Funding Account all Advance Reimbursement Amounts in respect of all Advances other than Delinquency Advances collected by the Servicer with respect to any Designated Pool pursuant to a related Designated Servicing Agreement no later than two (2) Business Days after the Servicer’s receipt thereof and the Servicer shall deposit into the Collection and Funding Account immediately upon withdrawal from the related Principal and Interest Custodial Accounts all Advance Reimbursement Amounts other than Delinquency Advances and in the case of Delinquency Advances shall withdraw Pool collections from the related Principal and Interest Custodial Account to reimburse Delinquency Advances within two (2) Business Days after such Advance Reimbursement Amounts are deposited in the related Principal and Interest Custodial Account; provided that to the extent of Delinquency Advances that Xxxxxxx Mac reimburses by a credit as described in Section 3 of the Xxxxxxx Mac Consent (if any), the Advance Reimbursement Amount for such Delinquency Advances shall be deemed to have been reimbursed and immediately redeployed to make a new Delinquency Advance (“Credited Advance Funding”). If the Revolving Period is not in effect for any Class of Note, the Servicer shall remit to the Collection and Funding Account the amount of any Credited Advance Funding within two (2) Business Days of its knowledge of the amount of any such Credited Advance Funding. Any amounts remitted by the Servicer to the Collection and Funding Account shall be deemed to constitute Advance Reimbursement Amounts in respect of the Delinquency Advance deemed to have been reimbursed in connection with such Credited Advance Funding. To the extent the Indenture Trustee receives for deposit Advance Reimbursement Amounts in the Collection and Funding Account later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time on a Business Day, such funds shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day.

If Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac remits any payments directly to a Trust Account, the Servicer shall identify any amounts remitted that do not constitute Collateral. Upon any such identification, the Servicer shall give written notice to the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent within two (2) Business Days thereof along with reasonable supporting documentation. Within two (2) Business Days, but as soon as reasonably practicable, of the Indenture Trustee’s receipt of written direction from the Servicer and written confirmation from the Administrative Agent, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw such amounts that do not constitute Collateral and remit such amounts to such accounts as may be designated in writing by the Servicer to the Indenture Trustee.

(b) Payment Dates. On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall transfer from the Collection and Funding Account to the Note Payment Account all Available Funds or Series Available Funds then on deposit in the Collection and Funding Account. Except in the case of Redemption Amounts, which may be remitted by the Issuer directly to the Note Payment Account, none of the Servicer, the Administrator,

the Issuer, the Calculation Agent nor the Indenture Trustee shall remit to the Note Payment Account, and each shall take all reasonable actions to prevent other Persons from remitting to the Note Payment Account, amounts which do not constitute payments, collections or recoveries received, made or realized in respect of the Receivables or the initial cash deposited by the Noteholders with the Indenture Trustee on the Closing Date, and the Indenture Trustee will return to the Issuer or the Servicer any such amounts upon receiving written evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee that such amounts are not a part of the Trust Estate.

(c) Delegated Authority to Make Delinquency Advances. The Receivables Seller and the Servicer hereby irrevocably appoint the Noteholder(s) of any Outstanding VFN with the authority (but no obligation) to make any Delinquency Advance on the Servicer’s behalf to the extent the Servicer fails to make such Delinquency Advance with respect to a Designated Pool when required to do so pursuant to the related Designated Servicing Agreement.

(d) Designation of Administrative Agent as Designee of Indenture Trustee under Xxxxxx Mae Acknowledgment. The Indenture Trustee hereby designates the Administrative Agent as its designee under the Xxxxxx Xxx Acknowledgment, and the Administrative Agent hereby accepts such designation. In the event of a servicing transfer, voluntary or involuntary, and as the designee of the Indenture Trustee under the Xxxxxx Mae Acknowledgment, the Administrative Agent acknowledges and agrees that the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility for and shall not be obligated to (i) make, submit or otherwise process any reimbursement request of the Servicer or any third-party successor servicer, including but not limited to reimbursement of Xxxxxx Xxx Advances, (ii) make, submit or otherwise process any report the Servicer or any third-party successor servicer is required to submit to Xxxxxx Mae pursuant to the Xxxxxx Xxx Acknowledgment and/or the Xxxxxx Mae Guide, (iii) attempt to arrange with any third-party successor servicer to make, submit or otherwise process any report the Servicer or any third-party successor servicer is required to submit to Xxxxxx Xxx pursuant to the Xxxxxx Mae Acknowledgment and/or the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide and/or requests for reimbursement, including but not limited to, reimbursement of Xxxxxx Mae Advances or (iv) work together with Xxxxxx Xxx to arrive at a plan for the submission of supporting detail and reimbursement request of any request for reimbursement of the Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Xxxxxx Mae Acknowledgment.


Section 4.3.	Funding of Receivables.

(a) Funding Certifications. By no later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time on the second (2^nd) Business Day prior to each Funding Date that is a VFN Draw Date (or such other time as may be agreed to from time to time by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent), with respect to any fundings related to Escrow Advances or Corporate Advances, or by no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day prior to each Funding Date that is a VFN Draw Date (or such other time as may be agreed to from time to time by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent), solely with respect to any fundings related to Delinquency Advances or Delinquent MBS Mortgage Repurchase Advances, or on the first Business Day prior to each Funding Date that is not a VFN Draw Date (or such other time as may be agreed to from time to time by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent), the Administrator shall prepare and deliver to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Administrative Agent and each applicable VFN Noteholder a certification (each, a “Funding Certification”) containing a list of each Funding Condition and presenting a yes or no answer beside each indicating whether such Funding Condition has been satisfied and shall state in writing the amount to be funded on that Funding Date. Upon delivery of the Funding Certification, it shall be deemed that the Receivables Seller is in compliance with items (1) – (5) in the Risk Retention Letter, and upon receipt of the

Funding Certification, the Administrative Agent acknowledges the satisfaction of the Funding Conditions related to the Risk Retention Letter.

(b) VFN Draws, Discretionary Paydowns and Permanent Reductions.

With respect to each VFN:

(i) (1) By no later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time on the second (2^nd) Business Day prior to any Interim Payment Date or Payment Date during the Revolving Period for such VFN on which any applicable Variable Funding Note Class is Outstanding, the Issuer may deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent, each Noteholder of such Variable Funding Notes and the Indenture Trustee a report (a “VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request”) for such upcoming Funding Date, requesting such Noteholders to fund a VFN Principal Balance increase relating to Escrow Advances or Corporate Advances, on any Class or Classes of VFNs in the amount(s) specified in such request, which request shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to recognize an increase in the related VFN Principal Balance, but not in excess of the lesser of (x) the related Maximum VFN Principal Balance or (y) the amount that would cause the Collateral Test to be violated and (2) by no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day prior to any Interim Payment Date or Payment Date during the Revolving Period for such VFN on which any applicable Variable Funding Note Class is Outstanding, the Issuer may deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Noteholder of such Variable Funding Notes and to the Indenture Trustee a VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request for such upcoming Funding Date, requesting such Noteholders to fund a VFN Principal Balance increase relating solely to Delinquency Advances or Delinquent MBS Mortgage Repurchase Advances, on any Class or Classes of VFNs in the amount(s) specified in such request, which request shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to recognize an increase in the related VFN Principal Balance, but not in excess of the lesser of (x) the related Maximum VFN Principal Balance or (y) the amount that would cause the Collateral Test to be violated; provided, however, if the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request with respect to Delinquency Advances or Delinquent MBS Mortgage Repurchase Advances is delivered after 10:00 a.m. New York City time and before 12:00 noon New York City time on the Business Day prior to any Interim Payment Date or Payment Date during the Revolving Period for such VFN, the Late VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request Fee shall be incurred on the total VFN Principal Balance increase that was funded on the upcoming Funding Date (including VFN Principal Balance increases relating to Escrow Advances and Corporate Advances) despite the late delivery of the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request relating to Delinquency Advances or Delinquent MBS Mortgage Repurchase Advances; provided, further, no VFN Principal Balance increase shall be funded with respect to any Escrow Advance and Corporate Advance if the related VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request is delivered after 1:00 p.m. New York City time on the second (2^nd) Business Day prior to any Interim Payment Date or Payment Date during the Revolving Period for such VFN, and no VFN Principal Balance increase shall be funded with respect to any Delinquency Advance or Delinquent MBS Mortgage Repurchase Advances if the related VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request is delivered after 12:00 noon New York City time on the Business Day prior to any Interim Payment Date or Payment Date during the Revolving Period for such VFN; provided further that no such VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request shall be sent more frequently than twice per calendar week, unless otherwise agreed by the relevant Noteholders. The VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request shall also state the amount, if any, of any principal payment to be made on each Outstanding Class of VFNs on the upcoming Interim Payment Date or Payment Date.

(ii) From time to time, but not exceeding once per calendar month, during the Revolving Period for such VFN, the Issuer may notify the Administrative Agent, each Noteholder of such Variable Funding Notes, and the Indenture Trustee of a permanent reduction in the Maximum VFN Principal Balance by indicating such reduction on the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request. Following such permanent reduction, the applicable VFN Noteholders shall only be required to fund increases in the VFN Principal Balance up to such reduced Maximum VFN Principal Balance. Furthermore, following a reduction in the Maximum VFN Principal Balance pursuant to this clause (ii), the Issuer shall not at any time be permitted to request an increase in the Maximum VFN Principal Balance.

(iii) If the related Funding Certification indicates that all Funding Conditions have been met, the applicable VFN Noteholders shall fund the VFN Principal Balance increase by remitting pro rata (based on such Noteholder’s percentage of the Maximum VFN Principal Balance) the amount stated in the request to the Indenture Trustee by 1:00 p.m. New York City time on the related Funding Date, whereupon the Indenture Trustee shall adjust its records to reflect the increase of the VFN Principal Balance (which increase shall be the aggregate of the amounts received by the Indenture Trustee from the applicable VFN Noteholders) by the later of (i) 3:00 p.m. New York City time on such Funding Date or (ii) two hours after the receipt by the Indenture Trustee of such funds from the VFN Noteholders, so long as, after such increase and after giving effect to any Receivables to be purchased, the Collateral Test will continue to be satisfied, determined based on the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request and Determination Date Administrator Report. The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request and the related Determination Date Administrator Report and Funding Certification. The Indenture Trustee shall make available on its website to the Issuer or its designee and each applicable VFN Noteholder, notice on such Funding Date as reasonably requested by the Issuer of any increase in the VFN Principal Balance. The Indenture Trustee shall apply and remit any such payment by the VFN Noteholders toward the payment of the related New Receivables Funding Amounts and (if applicable) Excess Receivables Funding Amounts as described in Section 4.3(c). If on any Funding Date there is more than one Series with Outstanding Variable Funding Notes, VFN Draws on such Funding Date shall be made on a pro rata basis among all applicable Outstanding Series of VFNs in their Revolving Periods based on their respective available Borrowing Capacities, unless otherwise provided in the related Indenture Supplement and Note Purchase Agreement. If any VFN Noteholder does not fund its share of a requested VFN draw, one or more other VFN Noteholders may fund all or a portion of such draw, but no other VFN Noteholder shall have any obligation to do so. Draws on VFNs of different Classes within the same Series need not be drawn pro rata relative to each other. Any draws under any VFNs shall be used only (i) to purchase new Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Pooling Agreement (or to fund Receivables previously purchased pursuant to the Receivables Pooling Agreement) and (ii) to provide funding in respect of Excess Receivables Funding Amounts, in each case, in a manner that would not be in violation of any term hereof (including, without limitation, in a manner that would result in a material adverse United States federal income tax consequence to the Trust Estate or any Noteholders).

(i) Subject to its receipt of a duly executed Funding Certification from the Administrator pursuant to Section 4.3(a) stating that all Funding Conditions have been satisfied, the Indenture Trustee shall remit to the Issuer (or the Issuer’s designee), by the close of business New York City time on each Funding Date, the amount of (x) the aggregate New Receivables Funding Amount for Facility Eligible Receivables to be funded on such Funding Date and (y) any other amounts to be

drawn on the VFNs on such date in respect of Excess Receivables Funding Amounts without causing the related VFN Principal Balance to exceed either (I) the related Maximum VFN Principal Balance or (II) the amount that would cause the Collateral Test not be satisfied, using the following sources of funding in the following order:

(A) any funds on deposit in the Collection and Funding Account minus the Required Expense Reserve,

(B) if such Funding Date is a Payment Date, Available Funds allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(1)(vii),

(C) if such Funding Date is an Interim Payment Date, Available Funds allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.4(e), and

(D) any amounts paid by VFN Noteholders as described in Section 4.3(b);

(ii) Subject to its receipt of a duly executed Funding Certification from the Administrator pursuant to Series 4.3(a) indicating that all Funding Conditions have been satisfied, the Indenture Trustee shall remit to the Issuer (or the Issuer’s designee) by the close of business on each Interim Payment Date or Payment Date occurring at any time when not all Outstanding Notes are in Full Amortization Periods, (A) the amount of the aggregate New Receivables Funding Amount for Facility Eligible Receivables to be funded on such Interim Payment Date or Payment Date, using (1) Available Funds allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.4(e) or Section 4.5(a)(1)(vii), and (2) any amounts funded by VFN Noteholders in respect of such New Receivables Funding Amount as described in Section 4.3(b) and (B) any amounts funded by VFN Noteholders in respect of Excess Receivables Funding Amounts as described in Section 4.3(b).

(iii) Except with respect to Delinquency Advance Receivables eligible for funding on a Funding Date prior to disbursement of the related Delinquency Advances pursuant to Section 4.3(e), the Servicer shall not, and the Administrator shall not and shall not permit the Issuer or the Depositor to, request funding for any Receivables except to the extent that the related Advances shall have been disbursed in accordance with the Xxxxxxx Mac Guide or the Xxxxxx Mae Guide, as applicable, prior to the receipt of the related New Receivables Funding Amount. Unless and until (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred which has not been waived in accordance with the terms hereof or (ii) a VFN Noteholder or the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes instruct the Indenture Trustee by a written notice that no portion of the New Receivables Funding Amount may be paid by the Indenture Trustee without first receiving a written certification that all of the related Delinquency Advances have been previously disbursed by the Receivables Seller (a “Cease Pre-Funding Notice”), which may be delivered at any time as deemed necessary by such Noteholder(s) in the exercise of its or their sole and absolute discretion, the Indenture Trustee may pay the New Receivables Funding Amount for Delinquency Advances on any Funding Date. If a Cease Pre-Funding Notice has been delivered, then no Delinquency Advance Receivables may be funded until all the related Delinquency Advances have been deposited into the appropriate Principal and Interest Custodial Account and remitted to Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae, as applicable, in accordance with the Xxxxxxx Mac Guide or the Xxxxxx Mae Guide, as applicable, and the Receivables Seller shall have delivered a written certification to such effect to the Indenture Trustee with respect to all related Advances.

For the avoidance of doubt, Credited Advance Fundings shall be accomplished as described in Section 4.2 hereof and Section 3 of the Xxxxxxx Mac Consent (if any). Credited Advance Fundings shall not be included in the New Receivables Funding Amounts.

(d) Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account. Pursuant to Section 4.1, the Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain an Eligible Account in the name of the Issuer as the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account. The Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account shall at all times qualify as an Eligible Account. If, at any time, the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account has ceased to qualify as an Eligible Account, the Indenture Trustee shall within sixty (60) days of the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee or through receipt of such notice to the Indenture Trustee that the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account has ceased to qualify as an Eligible Account, establish a new Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account qualifying as an Eligible Account and transfer any cash and any investments on deposit into such newly established Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account. The taxpayer identification number associated with the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account shall be that of the Issuer and the Receivables Seller will report for Federal, state and local income tax purposes, the income, if any, on funds on deposit in the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account. Subject to Section 4.1, funds on deposit from time to time in the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account shall remain uninvested. The Indenture Trustee shall have and is hereby directed by the Issuer to exercise the sole and exclusive right to disburse funds from the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account and each of the Servicer, Administrator and Issuer hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right to provide payment or withdrawal instructions with respect to the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account or to otherwise direct the disposition of funds from time to time on deposit in the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account.

(e) Pre-Funding of Delinquency Advances. On any Funding Date during the Revolving Period for any Series or Class of Notes, the Issuer (or the Servicer on its behalf) may request that all or a portion of the New Receivables Funding Amount be applied in satisfaction of the Servicer’s obligation to make Delinquency Advances with respect to a Designated Pool under one or more Designated Servicing Agreements. Prior to (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default that has not been waived in accordance with the terms hereof or (ii) the receipt by the Indenture Trustee of a Cease Pre-Funding Notice, the Indenture Trustee shall apply the portion of the New Receivables Funding Amount requested by the Issuer (or the Servicer on its behalf) to “Noteholders’ Amounts” (as defined below) in accordance with this Section 4.3(e). Not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) New York City time on the Business Day preceding each Funding Date (or such other time as may be agreed to from time to time by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent), the Issuer (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall deliver a disbursement report (the “Disbursement Report”) to the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent setting forth in reasonable detail (A) the aggregate amount of Delinquency Advances required to be advanced by the Servicer with respect to each Designated Pool under each Designated Servicing Agreement on such Funding Date for which the Servicer desires pre-funding in accordance with this Section 4.3(e) (each such amount, a “Delinquency Advance Amount”), (B) the payment or wiring instructions for the Principal and Interest Custodial Account relating to each Designated Pool with respect to which the Servicer is obligated to disburse Delinquency Advance Amount on such Funding Date, (C) the Series New Receivables Funding Amount for each Series and the full New Receivables Funding Amount, that would apply to each Delinquency Advance Disbursement Amount if such Delinquency Advance Amount were a Delinquency Advance Receivable (such Collateral Value, the “Noteholders’ Amount”), and (D) a calculation for each Delinquency Advance Amount of the excess of such Delinquency Advance Amount over the Noteholders’ Amount (such excess, the “Issuer Amount”). Not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each Funding Date, (x) the Issuer (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall deposit to the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account in cash or immediately available funds, an amount equal to the sum of the Issuer Amounts with respect to each Designated Pool and

(y) the Indenture Trustee shall transfer to the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account, out of the proceeds of the New Receivables Funding Amount, an amount equal to the sum of the Noteholders’ Amounts with respect to each Designated Pool. Not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) New York City time on each Funding Date, the Indenture Trustee will, solely from funds on deposit in the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account, remit the Delinquency Advance Amount with respect to each Designated Pool to the applicable Principal and Interest Custodial Accounts listed in the related Disbursement Report. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Indenture Trustee shall not transfer any funds from the Collection and Funding Account to the Delinquency Advance Disbursement Account or disburse any Delinquency Advance Amount on any Funding Date unless it shall have confirmed receipt of the sum of the Issuer Amounts described on the related Disbursement Report.

(f) Limited Funding Dates. On any Limited Funding Date, subject to its receipt of a duly executed Funding Certification from the Administrator pursuant to Section 4.3(a) stating that all Funding Conditions have been satisfied, the Indenture Trustee shall, by the close of business New York City time on each Limited Funding Date occurring during the Revolving Period for any Series or Class of Notes, (i) remit to the Issuer (or the Issuer’s designee) the amount of the aggregate New Receivables Funding Amount for Facility Eligible Receivables to be funded on such Limited Funding Date, using only funds on deposit in the Collection and Funding Account minus the Required Expense Reserve, and (ii) thereafter, release any Net Excess Cash Amount to the Depositor as holder of the Owner Trust Certificate it being understood that no such Net Excess Cash Amounts may be paid to the Depositor under this clause (f) if, after the payment of such cash amounts, the Collateral Test would no longer be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no draws on Variable Funding Notes may be made on a Limited Funding Date, and no payments on any Notes shall be made on a Limited Funding Date, as Limited Funding Dates shall not be treated as Interim Payment Dates but instead shall be for the sole purpose of funding Receivables, funding the Accumulation Accounts and the Series Reserve Account for each Series as described in the following sentence and releasing Net Excess Cash Amounts to the extent permissible under the terms of this Indenture. On each Limited Funding Date, prior to amounts being released for the purchase of Receivables in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 4.3(f), the Indenture Trustee shall release from the Collection and Funding Account to each of the Fee Accumulation Account, Interest Accumulation Account, Target Amortization Principal Accumulation Account and the Series Reserve Account for each Series, the amounts required to be deposited therein for such Limited Funding Date in order for the Funding Conditions to be satisfied on such date.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, unless the Indenture Trustee has received notice of a Consent Withdrawal Date, the Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to confirm that a Xxxxxxx Mac Consent or Xxxxxx Xxx Acknowledgment has not been withdrawn. Further, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any Funding Certification and will not be bound to make any investigation into the accuracy thereof.


Section 4.4.	Interim Payment Dates.

(a) to the Fee Accumulation Account, amounts necessary to be deposited therein such that the amount on deposit in such account equals the Fee Accumulation Amount for such Interim Payment Date (other than any amounts that constitute Defaulting Counterparty Termination Payments);

(b) to the Interest Accumulation Account, amounts necessary to be deposited therein such that the amount on deposit in such account equals the Interest Accumulation Amount for such Interim Payment Date;

(c) to the Series Reserve Account for each Series, the amount required to be deposited therein so that, after giving effect to such deposit, the amount standing to the credit of such Series Reserve Account shall be equal to the related Series Reserve Required Amount;

(e) to be retained in the Collection and Funding Account, the aggregate New Receivables Funding Amount for any Facility Eligible Receivables to be funded on such Interim Payment Date (without duplicating any portion of such New Receivables Funding Amount to be paid using the proceeds of an increase in any VFN Principal Balance) and the aggregate Excess Receivables Funding Amount to be funded on such Interim Payment Date; provided that no New Receivables Funding Amounts will be released to fund new Receivables and no Excess Receivables Funding Amounts will be released under this clause (e) unless the Funding Conditions have been met;

(f) prior to the Full Amortization Period, to pay down the VFN Principal Balance of each Outstanding Class of VFNs, pro rata based on their respective Note Balances, the amount necessary to satisfy the Collateral Test after giving effect to the allocations, payments and distributions in clauses (a) through (e) above;

(j) any Net Excess Cash Amount to or at the direction of the Depositor as holder of the Owner Trust Certificate, it being understood that no such Net Excess Cash Amounts may be paid to the Depositor under this clause (j) if, after the payment of such cash amounts, the Collateral Test would no longer be satisfied.


Section 4.5.	Payment Dates.

Section 4.6.	Series Reserve Account.

(a) Pursuant to Section 4.1, the Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain a Series Reserve Account or Accounts for each Series, each of which shall be an Eligible Account, for the benefit of the Secured Parties of such Series. If any such account loses its status as an Eligible Account, the funds in such account shall be moved to an account that qualifies as an Eligible Account within thirty (30) days. On or prior to the Issuance Date for each Series, the Issuer shall cause an amount equal to the related Series Reserve Required Amount(s) to be deposited into the related Series Reserve Account(s). Thereafter, on each Payment Date and Interim Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw Available Funds from the Note Payment Account and deposit them into each such Series Reserve Account pursuant to, and to the extent required by, Section 4.5(a) and the related Indenture Supplement.

(b) On each Payment Date, an amount equal to the aggregate of amounts described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 4.5(a)(1) or clauses (i), (ii) and (iii)(A) through (C) of Section 4.5(a)(2) allocable to the related Series, as appropriate, and which is not payable out of Available Funds or the related Series Available Funds, as applicable, due to an insufficiency of Available Funds or Series Available Funds, as applicable, shall be withdrawn from such Series Reserve Account by the Indenture Trustee and remitted to the Note Payment Account for payment in respect of the related Class’ allocable share of such items as described in Section 4.5(a) or the related Indenture Supplement. On any Payment Date on which amounts are withdrawn from such Series Reserve Account pursuant to Section 4.5(a), no funds shall be withdrawn from the Collection and Funding Account (or from the Note Payment Account for deposit into the Collection and Funding Account) to pay New Receivables Funding Amounts or amounts to the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.3 if, after giving effect to the withdrawals described in the preceding sentences, the amount then standing to the credit of such Series Reserve Account is less than the related Series Reserve Required Amount. All Collections received in the Collection and Funding Account shall be deposited into the related Series Reserve Accounts until the amount on deposit in each Series Reserve Account equals the related Series Reserve Required Amount, as described in Section 4.5 and the related Indenture Supplement. For purposes of the foregoing the portion of any such fees and expenses payable under clause (i) or (ii) shall equal the related Series Allocation Percentage of the amounts payable under such clause.

(c) If on any Payment Date the amount on deposit in a Series Reserve Account is equal to or greater than the aggregate Note Balance for the related Series (after payment on such Payment Date of the amounts described in Section 4.5) the Indenture Trustee will withdraw from such Series Reserve Account the aggregate Note Balance for such Series and remit it to the Noteholders of the Notes of such Series in reduction of the aggregate Note Balance for all Classes of Notes of such Series that are Outstanding. On the Stated Maturity Date for the latest maturing Class in a Series, the balance on deposit in the related Series Reserve Account shall be applied as a principal payment on the Notes of that Series to the extent necessary to reduce the aggregate Note Balance for that Series to zero. On any Payment Date after payment of principal on the Notes and when no Event of Default has occurred and has not be waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw from each Series Reserve Account the amount by which the balance of the Series Reserve Account exceeds the related Series Reserve Required Amount and pay such amount to the Depositor as holder of the Owner Trust Certificate.

(d) Amounts held in a Series Reserve Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments at the direction of the Administrator as provided in Section 4.1.

(e) On any Payment Date, after payment of all amounts pursuant to Section 4.5(a), if the Collateral Test is not satisfied or if an Event of Default shall have occurred (unless such Event of Default shall have been waived in accordance with the terms hereof), the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw from each Series Reserve Account the amount by which the amount standing to the credit of such Series Reserve Account exceeds the related Series Reserve Required Amount, and shall apply such excess to reduce the Note Balances of the Notes of the related Series, pursuant to Section 4.5(b). Such principal payments shall be made pro rata based on Note Balances to multiple Classes within a Series, except that in a Full Amortization Period such principal payment shall be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of the related Indenture Supplement. On any Payment Date following the payment in full of all principal payable in respect of the related Series or Class of Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw any remaining amounts from the related Series Reserve Account and distribute it to the Depositor as holder of the Owner Trust Certificate. Amounts paid to the Depositor or its designee pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be released from the Security Interest.

(f) If on any Funding Date, the amount on deposit in one or more Series Reserve Accounts is less than the related Series Reserve Required Amounts, then the Administrator may direct the Indenture Trustee to transfer from the Collection and Funding Account to such Series Reserve Accounts an amount equal to the amount by which the respective Series Reserve Required Amounts exceed the respective amounts then on deposit in the related Series Reserve Accounts.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, any funds on deposit in any Series Reserve Account or any Derivative Account are to be applied to make any required payments in respect of the related Series or Class of Notes only, and no other Series or Class of Notes shall have any interest or claim against such amounts on deposit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Series or Class of Notes is deemed to have an interest or claim on the funds on deposit in the Series Reserve Account or the Derivative Account established for another Series, it shall not receive any amounts on deposit in such Series Reserve Account or Derivative Account unless and until the Series or Class of Notes related to such Series Reserve Account or Derivative Account are paid in full and are no longer Outstanding. The provisions of this Section 4.6(g) constitute a “subordination agreement” for purposes of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Indenture Trustee shall deposit and withdraw Available Funds from a Sinking Fund Account pursuant to, and to the extent required by, Section 4.5.

(i) With respect to any portion of the Trust Estate that is credited to the Trust Accounts, the Securities Intermediary agrees that:

(A) with respect to any portion of the Trust Estate that is held in deposit accounts, each such deposit account shall be subject to the security interest granted pursuant to this Indenture, and the Securities Intermediary shall comply with instructions originated by the Indenture Trustee directing dispositions of funds in the deposit accounts without further consent of the Issuer and otherwise shall be subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Securities Intermediary, and the Securities Intermediary shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto;

(D) it will use reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer if any other Person claims that it has a property interest in a Financial Asset in any Trust Account and that it is a violation of that Person’s rights for anyone else to hold, transfer or deal with such Financial Asset.

The Financial Assets and Security Entitlements credited to the Accounts will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee in the case of the Trust Accounts.

(v) There are no other agreements entered into between the Securities Intermediary in such capacity, and the Securities Intermediary agrees that it will not enter into any agreement with, the Issuer, the Administrator, or any other Person (other than the Indenture Trustee) with respect to any Trust Account.

Except for the claims and interests of the Secured Parties in the Trust Accounts, the Securities Intermediary has no actual knowledge of any claim to, or interest in, any Trust Account or in any financial asset credited thereto. If any Person asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against any Trust Account or in any financial asset carried therein of which a Responsible Officer of the Securities Intermediary has actual knowledge, the Securities Intermediary will notify the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer thereof within two (2) Business Days.


Section 4.11.	No Gross Up.

No Person, including the Issuer, shall be obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Noteholders or Note Owners as a result of any withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges. In addition, the Indenture Trustee will withhold on payments of Undrawn Fees to Non-U.S. Noteholders unless such Noteholder provides a correct, complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or is eligible for benefits under an income tax treaty with the United States that eliminates U.S. federal income taxation on U.S. source Undrawn Fees and such Non-U.S. Noteholder provides a correct, complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E. The Indenture Trustee may rely on such U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E to evidence the Noteholders’ eligibility.


Section 4.12.	Full Amortization Period; Target Amortization Events.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Revolving Period or Target Amortization Period for all Classes and Series of the Notes shall automatically terminate and the Full Amortization Period for all Outstanding Notes shall commence without further action on the part of any Person, unless, together, the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes that are not Variable Funding Notes and the Series Required Noteholders for each Series of Variable Funding Notes that are Outstanding notify the Indenture Trustee that they have waived the occurrence of such Event of Default and consent to the continuation of the Revolving Period or Target Amortization Period, as the case may be, for each Outstanding Series that is still in its Revolving Period or Target Amortization Period; provided, however, that any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(h) or (j) hereto shall not be deemed to have “occurred” until the Administrator or the

Administrative Agent has provided notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee, or a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have obtained actual knowledge thereof.

Upon the occurrence of a Target Amortization Event with respect to a Class or Series, unless otherwise provided in the Indenture Supplement, the related Target Amortization Period shall be deemed to commence when the Administrator or the Administrative Agent has provided notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee, or a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have obtained actual knowledge thereof but upon such notice or knowledge, the Notes of such Class or Series shall enter their Target Amortization Periods and as a result shall be paid principal in Target Amortization Amounts under Section 4.5(a)(1)(v) on subsequent Payment Dates, unless the requisite parties pursuant to the Indenture Supplement related to that Series notify the Indenture Trustee that they have waived the occurrence of such Target Amortization Event and consent to the continuation of the Revolving Periods (in the case of any Notes still in their Revolving Periods prior to the occurrence of such Target Amortization Event); provided that no Series of VFNs may continue its Revolving Period unless all Outstanding Series of VFNs consent to continuation of their Revolving Periods.

The Administrator shall notify the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent immediately upon its becoming aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default (as well as the occurrence of an event described in (h) or (j) of the definition of “Events of Default” that will become an Event of Default upon notice of such event to the Indenture Trustee) or the occurrence of an event described in the definition of “Target Amortization Event” in the related Indenture Supplement that will become a Target Amortization Event upon notice of such event by either the Administrative Agent or the Administrator, or, if applicable, any of its affiliates or by the Indenture Trustee or the related Noteholders of such Series and/or affirmative vote by the Series Required Noteholders, as well as the occurrence of any Target Amortization Event. The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Indenture Trustee and each Derivative Counterparty (as applicable in the case of any Target Amortization Event, with respect to the related Series of Notes) promptly upon becoming aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Target Amortization Event. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation for the Issuer to pay or reserve any Default Supplemental Fee or Default Supplemental Fee Shortfall Amounts shall begin only upon the commencement of the Full Amortization Period as described in this Section 4.12.

Section 5.4.	Book-Entry Notes.

(a) Issuance of Book-Entry Notes. If the Issuer establishes pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 6.1 that the Notes of a particular Series or Class are to be issued as Book-Entry Notes, then the Issuer will execute and the Indenture Trustee or its agent will, in accordance with Section 6.3 and with the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Indenture Trustee or its agent under Section 6.3, authenticate and deliver, one or more definitive Global Notes, which, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement (1) will represent, and will be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate, Initial Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of such Series or Class to be represented by such Global Note or Notes, or such portion thereof as the Issuer will specify in an Issuer Certificate, (2) will be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Note or Notes or its nominee, (3) will be delivered by the Indenture Trustee or its agent to the Depository or pursuant to the Depository’s instruction (and which may be held by the Indenture Trustee as custodian for the Depository, if so specified in the related Indenture Supplement or Depository Agreement), (4) 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 (5) may bear such other legend as the Issuer, upon advice of counsel, deems to be applicable. The Specified Notes may not be issued as Book-Entry Notes.

(b) Transfers of Global Notes only to Depository Nominees. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.4 or of Section 6.5, 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 Notes, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in

part and in the manner provided in Section 6.5, only to a nominee of the Depository 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.

(c) Limited Right to Receive Definitive Notes. Except under the limited circumstances described below, Note Owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be entitled to receive Definitive Notes. With respect to Notes issued within the United States, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement, or with respect to Notes issued outside the United States, if specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement:

(i) If at any time the Depository for a Global Note notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depository for such Global Note or if at any time the Depository for the Notes for such Series or Class ceases to be a Clearing Corporation, 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 Indenture Trustee or its agent will, in accordance with Section 6.3 and with the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Indenture Trustee or its agent under Section 6.3 requesting the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such Series or Class in exchange for such Global Note, will authenticate and deliver, individual Notes of such Series or Class of like tenor and terms in an aggregate Initial Note Balance equal to the Initial Note Balance 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 or Class 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 Indenture Trustee or its agent in accordance with Section 6.3 and with the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Indenture Trustee or its agent under Section 6.3 for the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such Series or Class in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Note, will authenticate and deliver individual Notes of such Series or Class of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate Initial Note Balance equal to the Initial Note Balance of such Global Note or Notes representing such Series or Class or portion thereof in exchange for such Global Note or Notes.

(iii) If specified by the Issuer pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 6.1 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 or Class of like tenor and terms in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to the Issuer and such Depository. Thereupon the Issuer will execute, and the Indenture Trustee or its agent will, in accordance with Section 6.3 and with the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Indenture Trustee or its agent under Section 6.3, authenticate and deliver, without service charge, (A) to each Person specified by such Depository a new Note or Notes of the same Series or Class of like tenor and terms and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in an aggregate Initial Note Balance equal to the Initial Note Balance of the portion of the Global Note or Notes specified by the Depository 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 Initial Note Balance of the surrendered Global Note and the aggregate Initial Note Balance of Notes delivered to the Noteholders thereof.

(iv) If any Event of Default has occurred and has not been waived in accordance with the terms hereof, and Owners of Notes evidencing more than 50% of the Global Notes of that Series or Class (measured by Voting Interests) advise the Indenture Trustee and the Depository that a Global Note is no longer in the best interest of the Note Owners, the Owners of Global Notes of that Series or Class may exchange their beneficial interests in such Notes for Definitive Notes in accordance with the exchange provisions herein.

(v) In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding four paragraphs, the Issuer will execute and the Indenture Trustee or its agent will, in accordance with Section 6.3 and with the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Indenture Trustee or its agent under Section 6.3, authenticate and deliver Definitive Notes in definitive registered form in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire Initial Note Balance of a Global Note for Definitive Notes, such Global Note will be canceled by the Indenture Trustee or its agent. Except as provided in the preceding paragraphs, Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to this Section 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 Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar. The Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar will deliver such Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered.


Section 5.5.	Beneficial Ownership of Global Notes.

Until Definitive Notes have been issued to the applicable Noteholders to replace any Global Notes with respect to a Series or Class pursuant to Section 5.4 or as otherwise specified in any applicable Indenture Supplement:

(a) the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee may deal with the applicable clearing agency or Depository and the Depository Participants for all purposes (including the making of payments) 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 Depository and the Depository Participants and will be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Depository and/or the Depository Participants. Pursuant to the operating rules of the applicable Depository, unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 5.4, the Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal and interest on the related Notes to such Depository Participants.

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 Note Balance of Outstanding Notes, such direction or consent may be given by Note Owners (acting through the Depository and the Depository Participants) owning interests in or security entitlements to Notes evidencing the requisite percentage of principal amount of Notes.


Section 5.6.	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 will give all such notices and communications to the applicable Depository, and shall have no obligation to report directly to such Note Owners.

Section 6.3.	Execution, Authentication and Delivery and Dating.

(a) The Notes will be executed on behalf of the Issuer by an Issuer Authorized Officer, by manual or facsimile signature.

(b) Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time an Issuer Authorized Officer will bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices before the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of issuance of such Notes.

(b) If temporary Notes of any Series or Class are issued, the Issuer will cause permanent Notes of such Series or Class to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of permanent Notes, the temporary Notes of such Series or Class will be exchangeable for permanent Notes of such Series or Class upon surrender of the temporary Notes of such Series or Class at the office or agency of the Issuer in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Noteholder; and upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes the Issuer will execute and the Indenture Trustee or its agent will, in accordance with Section 6.3 and with the Issuer Certificate delivered to the Indenture Trustee or its agent under Section 6.3, authenticate and deliver in exchange therefore a like Initial Note Balance of permanent Notes of such Series or Class of authorized denominations and of like tenor and terms. Until so exchanged the temporary Notes of such Series or Class will in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as permanent Notes of such Series or Class.


Section 6.5.	Registration, Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Note Register. The Indenture Trustee, acting as Note Registrar (in such capacity, the “Note Registrar”), shall keep or cause to be kept a register (herein sometimes referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer will provide for the registration of Notes, or of Notes of a particular Series or Class, and for transfers of Notes. Any such register will be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times the information contained in such register or registers will be available for inspection by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent and any agents of any of them, may treat a Person in whose name a Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments in respect of such Note and for all other purposes, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent or any agent of any of them, shall be affected by notice to the contrary. None of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, any agent of the Indenture Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Note Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership of a Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership.

(b) Exchange of Notes. Subject to Section 5.4, upon surrender for transfer of any Note of any Series or Class at the Place of Payment, the Issuer may execute, and, upon receipt of the documents required by Section 6.3 and such surrendered Note, together with an Issuer’s Certificate, the Indenture Trustee will authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of such Series or Class of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate Initial Note Balance and Stated

100

Maturity Date and of like terms. Subject to Section 5.4, Notes of any Series or Class may be exchanged for other Notes of such Series or Class of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate Initial Note Balance and Stated Maturity Date and of like terms, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the Place of Payment. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer will execute, and the Indenture Trustee or the related Authenticating Agent will authenticate and deliver the Notes which the Noteholders making the exchange are entitled to receive.

(c) Issuer Obligations. All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange of Notes will be the valid and legally binding obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

(d) Endorsement of Notes to be Transferred or Exchanged. Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange will (if so required by the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee) be duly indorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, and the Note Registrar duly executed, by the Noteholder thereof or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Securities Transfer Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”).

(e) No Service Charge. Unless otherwise provided in the Note to be transferred or exchanged, no service charge will be assessed against any Noteholder for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, and the Note Registrar may 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 before the transfer or exchange will be complete, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 5.4 not involving any transfer.

(f) Deemed Representations by Transferees of Rule 144A Notes. Each transferee (including the Initial Noteholder or Owner) of a Rule 144A Note or of a beneficial interest therein shall be deemed by accepting such Note or beneficial interest, to have made all the certifications, representations and warranties set forth in the Transferee Certificate attached to Exhibit B-1 attached hereto.

(g) Deemed Representations by Transferees of Regulation S Notes. Each transferee (including the initial Noteholder or Owner) of a Regulation S Note or of a beneficial therein shall be deemed by accepting such Note or beneficial interest, to have made all the certifications, representations and warranties set forth in the Transferee Certificate attached to Exhibit B-2 attached hereto.

(h) Conditions to Transfer. Each Noteholder shall have the right to sell, assign, pledge, or otherwise transfer (each a “Transfer”) any Notes at any time; provided that no such transfer shall be made unless that Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. If a Transfer is made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance thereof by the Issuer), then the Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee, Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall refuse to register such Transfer unless the Note Registrar receives either:

(i) the Regulation S Note Transfer Certificate or Rule 144A Note Transfer Certificate and such other information as may be required pursuant to this Section 6.5; or

(ii) if the Transfer is to be made to an Issuer Affiliate in a transaction that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the

101

Issuer and the Note Registrar to the effect that such Transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Estate or of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar in their respective capacities as such).

None of the Administrator, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify the Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note without registration or qualification. Any Noteholder of a Note desiring to effect such a Transfer shall, and upon acquisition of such a Note shall be deemed to have agreed to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Administrator, the Servicer and the Issuer against any liability that may result if the Transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

In connection with any Transfer of Notes in reliance on Rule 144A, the Administrator shall furnish upon request of a Noteholder to such Noteholder and any prospective purchaser designated by such Noteholder the information required to be delivered under paragraph (d)(4) of Rule 144A.

In the event that a Note is transferred to a Person that does not meet the requirements of this Section 6.5 or the requirements of the related Indenture Supplement, such transfer will be of no force and effect, will be void ab initio, and will not operate to transfer any right to such Person, notwithstanding any instructions to the contrary to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any intermediary; and the Indenture Trustee shall not make any payment on such Note for as long as such Person is the Noteholder of such Note and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to compel such Person to transfer such Note to a Person who does meet the requirements of this Section 6.5.

Upon the receipt by the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, of (A) instructions from the Depository directing the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, to cause to be credited a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note to be exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such owner’s Notes held through a Rule 144A Global Note, to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase, and (B) a certificate (each, a “Rule 144A Note Transfer Certificate”) in the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto given by the transferee of such beneficial interest, then the Indenture Trustee will reduce the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note and increase the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Note for the related Series and/or Class by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note for the related Series and/or Class to be transferred and the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with such reduction, to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note for the related Series and/or Class equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note for the related Series and/or Class.

(iv) Transfers of Interests in Rule 144A Global Note.

In the case of any Book-Entry Note or any interest therein, each transferee of such Note or any interest therein by virtue of its acquisition of such Note will be deemed to represent either (i) or (ii) above.

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

Each Noteholder will provide the applicable replacement IRS form or documentation every three (3) years (or sooner if there is a transfer to a new Noteholder or if required by applicable law). In each case above, the applicable IRS form or documentation shall be properly completed and signed under penalty of perjury. The Issuer agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to the Indenture Trustee at such times as may be reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee such information with respect to this Indenture and the Notes as will permit the Indenture Trustee to meet any required information collection and tax reporting obligations, including any cost basis reporting obligations.

If the additional Notes are in a Series or Class of Notes that has the benefit of a Derivative Agreement, the Issuer will enter into a Derivative Agreement for the benefit of the additional Notes (which the Issuer may enter into prior to the issuance of such notes at the time of the “pricing” of such Notes or any other Notes to be issued at or about the same time). In addition, if the additional Notes are a Series or Class of Notes that has the benefit of any Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement or any Liquidity Facility, the Issuer will enter into a Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement or Liquidity Facility, as applicable, for the benefit of the additional Notes.

(e) Sale Proceeds. The proceeds of sale of any new Series of Notes shall be wired to the Collection and Funding Account, and the Indenture Trustee shall disburse such sale proceeds at the direction of the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer, except to the extent such funds are needed to satisfy the Collateral Test. The Administrator on behalf of the Issuer may direct the Issuer to apply such proceeds to reduce pro rata based on Invested Amounts, the VFN Principal Balance of any Classes of Variable Funding Notes, or to redeem any Series of Notes in accordance with Section 13.1. In the absence of any such direction, the proceeds of such sale shall be distributed to the Depositor or at the Depositor’s direction on the Issuance Date for the newly issued Notes. The Administrator shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a report demonstrating that the release of sale proceeds pursuant to the Issuer’s direction will not cause a failure of the Collateral Test, as a precondition to the Indenture Trustee releasing such proceeds.

(f) Increase or Reduction in Maximum VFN Principal Balance and/or the Extension of any Expected Repayment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the increase or reduction in the Maximum VFN Principal Balance, the extension of the Expected Repayment Date in respect of any Outstanding Class of

111

Notes, and/or the increase or decrease of any Advance Rates and/or the increase or decrease of interest rates in respect thereof shall not constitute an issuance of “new Notes” for purposes of this Section 6.10.

Each of the Administrator, the Servicer and the Depositor shall notify the Indenture Trustee in writing of any Event of Default or an event which with notice, the passage of time or both would become an Event of Default that it discovers, immediately upon such discovery. For purposes of this Section 8.1, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default is received by the Indenture Trustee and such notice references the Notes, the Trust Estate or this Indenture.

Section 8.2.	Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

(a) If an Event of Default of the kind specified in clause (d) or (e) of Section 8.1 occurs, the unpaid principal amount of all of the Notes shall automatically become immediately due and payable without notice, presentment or demand of any kind. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then and in each and every such case, the Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of either 100% of the VFN Noteholders or the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes, by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Noteholders), may declare the Note Balance of all the Outstanding Notes and all interest and principal accrued and unpaid (if any) thereon and all other amounts due and payable under any Transaction Document to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration each Note will become and will be immediately due and payable, and the Revolving Period with respect to all

115

Series or Classes of Notes shall immediately terminate, anything in this Indenture, the related Indenture Supplement(s) or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding. Such payments are subject to the allocation, deposits and payment sections of this Indenture and of the related Indenture Supplement(s).

(b) [Reserved].

(c) At any time after such a declaration of acceleration has been made or an automatic acceleration has occurred with respect to the Notes of any Series or Class and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereafter provided in this Article VIII, the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(i) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (A) all overdue installments of interest on such Notes, (B) the principal of such Notes which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor by the terms of such Notes, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, (C) interest upon overdue installments of interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefore by the terms of such Notes to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, (D) all sums paid by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Indenture Trustee or Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (in any of its capacities), their agents and counsel, all other amounts due under Section 4.5 and (E) all amounts due and payable to each Derivative Counterparty in accordance with the terms of any applicable Derivative Agreement; and

(ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of such Notes which has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 8.15.

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


Section 8.3.	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 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,

(b) the Issuer defaults in the payment of any Target Amortization Amounts when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement; or

(c) the Issuer defaults in the payment of the principal of any Series or Class of Notes on the Stated Maturity Date thereof; then

the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay (subject to the allocation provided in Section 4.5(a)(2) hereof and any related Indenture Supplement) to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders of any such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on any such Notes for principal and interest, together with any Cumulative Interest Shortfall Amounts, unless otherwise 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,

116

disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (in any of its capacities), their agents and counsel and all other amounts due under Section 4.5.

If the Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee may, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may directly prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and the Indenture Trustee may enforce the same against the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the money adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law and this Indenture.


Section 8.4.	Indenture Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any Insolvency Event or other similar proceeding or event relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Issuer or of such other obligor, 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) will be entitled and empowered by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid and all other amounts due and payable under any Transaction Document 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 the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due under Section 4.5) and of the Noteholders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(b) to collect and receive any funds or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Noteholder to make such payment to the Indenture Trustee and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (in all its capacities), and in the event that the Indenture Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (in all its capacities) any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (in all its capacities), their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Indenture Trustee and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (in all its capacities) under Section 4.5.

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 of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.


Section 8.5.	Indenture Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes.

All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes of any Series or Class may be prosecuted and enforced by the Indenture Trustee, without the possession of any of the Notes of such Series or Class or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee, will be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment will, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its respective agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Noteholders of the Notes of such Series or Class in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.


Section 8.6.	Application of Money Collected.

117

Any money or other property collected by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article VIII will be applied in accordance with Section 4.5(a)(2), at the Final Payment Date fixed by the Indenture Trustee and, in case of the payment of such money on account of principal, interest or fees, upon presentation of the Notes of the related Series or Class and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid.


Section 8.7.	Sale of Collateral Requires Consent of Series Required Noteholders.

The Indenture Trustee shall not sell Collateral or cause the Issuer to sell Collateral following any Event of Default, except with the written consent, or at the direction of, the Series Required Noteholders of each Series; provided, that the consent of 100% of the Noteholders of the Outstanding Notes of each Series and any applicable Derivative Counterparties shall be required for any sale that does not generate sufficient proceeds to pay the Note Balance of all such Notes plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owed in respect of such Notes and the Transaction Documents. If such direction has been given by the Noteholders of the requisite percentage of all Outstanding Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall cause the Issuer to sell Collateral pursuant to Section 8.16, and shall provide prior written notice of this to each Note Rating Agency of then Outstanding Notes.


Section 8.8.	Noteholders Have the Right to Direct the Time, Method and Place of Conducting Any Proceeding for Any Remedy Available to the Indenture Trustee.

Subject to Section 8.7 and Section 8.14, the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee. This right may be exercised only if the direction provided by the Noteholders does not conflict with Applicable Law or this Indenture and does not have a substantial likelihood of involving the Indenture Trustee in personal liability and the Indenture Trustee has received indemnity satisfactory to it from such Noteholders.


Section 8.9.	Limitation on Suits.

No Noteholder will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or any Note, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to Notes of such Noteholder’s Notes’ Series or Class;

(b) the Noteholders of more than 25% of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of each Series, measured by Voting Interests, have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in the name of the Indenture Trustee hereunder;

(c) such Noteholder or Noteholders have offered to the Indenture Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; and

(d) the Indenture Trustee, for sixty (60) days after the Indenture Trustee has received such notice, request and offer of indemnity, has failed to institute any such proceeding; it being understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders of Notes of such Series or Class will have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture or any Note to affect, disturb or prejudice the

118

rights of any other Noteholders of Notes, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture or any Note, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and proportionate benefit of all the Noteholders of all Notes.


Section 8.10.	Unconditional Right of Noteholders to Receive Amounts Due with Respect to the Notes; Limited Recourse.

Notwithstanding any other terms of this Indenture, the Notes, any other Transaction Documents or otherwise, the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes, this Indenture and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate, and following realization of the Trust Estate and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, none of the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee or any of the other parties to the Transaction Documents shall be entitled to take any further steps to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. Subject to the foregoing and to the terms of the applicable Indenture Supplement, each Noteholder will, however, have the absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of all amounts due with respect to the Notes pursuant and with respect to the terms of the Indenture, which right shall not be impaired without the consent of each Noteholder and to initiate suit for the enforcement of any such payment, which right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of the Notes or this Indenture or for any action or inaction of the Issuer against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, stockholder or incorporator of the Issuer or any of their successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Notes or this Indenture. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.10 shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Trust Estate for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Trust Estate or (ii) save as specifically provided therein, constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.10 shall not limit the right of any Person, to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Person or entity.


Section 8.11.	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 and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders will, 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 will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.


Section 8.12.	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 will, 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 otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.


Section 8.13.	Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

119

No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or of any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.


Section 8.14.	Control by Noteholders.

Either 100% of the VFN Noteholders or the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee with respect to such Notes; provided that:

(a) the Indenture Trustee will have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Indenture Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or would conflict with this Indenture or if the Indenture Trustee in good faith determines that the proceedings so directed would involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Noteholders not taking part in such direction, unless the Indenture Trustee has received indemnity satisfactory to it from the Noteholders; and

(b) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action permitted hereunder deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.


Section 8.15.	Waiver of Past Defaults.

Together, the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes that are not Variable Funding Notes and the Series Required Noteholders for each Series of Variable Funding Notes that are Outstanding waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default not theretofore cured:

(a) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note, or

(b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article XII cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Noteholder of each Outstanding Note.

Upon any such waiver, such default will cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.


Section 8.16.	Sale of Trust Estate.

(a) The power to effect any Sale of any portion of the Trust Estate shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes and under this Indenture with respect thereto shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone any public Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale.

(b) Unless together, the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes that are not Variable Funding Notes and the Series Required Noteholders for each Series of Variable Funding Notes that are Outstanding have otherwise provided its written consent to the Indenture Trustee at least five (5) Business

120

Days prior to the Sale contemplated in this Section 8.16(b) and the Indenture Trustee has provided prior notice of such Sale as soon as is reasonably practicable to any Derivative Counterparty, at any public Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate at which a minimum bid equal to or greater than all amounts due to the Indenture Trustee hereunder and the entire amount which would be payable to the Noteholders in full payment thereof in accordance with Section 8.6, on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such sale, has not been received, the Indenture Trustee shall prevent such sale by bidding an amount at least $1.00 more than the highest other bid in order to preserve the Trust Estate.

(i) any of the Noteholders may bid for and purchase the property offered for Sale, and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property, without further accountability;

(ii) the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the property offered for Sale in connection with any Sale thereof;

(iii) the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof;

(iv) the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale; and

The Issuer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee (in all its capacities), the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Note Registrar, the Noteholders, each Derivative Counterparty (as applicable, with respect to the related Series of Notes) and the Trust Estate (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any taxes that may at any time be asserted against the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Note Registrar or the Trust Estate with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Indenture or any of the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible or intangible personal property, privilege or license taxes (but not including any taxes asserted with respect to, and as of the date of, the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust Estate, the issuance and original sale of the Notes of any Class, or asserted with respect to ownership of the Receivables, or federal, state or local income or franchise taxes or any other tax, or other income taxes arising out of payments on the Notes of any Class, or any interest or penalties with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) and costs and expenses in defending against the same.

Promptly after any Indemnified Party shall have been served with the summons or other first legal process or shall have received written notice of the threat of a claim in respect of which a claim for indemnity may be made against the Issuer under this Section 9.2, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator in writing of the service of such summons, other legal process or written notice, giving information therein as to the nature and basis of the claim, but failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer from any liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise, except to the extent that the Issuer is prejudiced by such failure so to notify the Issuer. The Issuer will be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of any such claim or action and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Issuer to such Indemnified Party that the Issuer wishes to assume the defense of any such action, the Issuer will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section 9.2 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of any such action unless (i) the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Issuer, and the Indemnified Party (upon the advice of counsel) shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Issuer, or one or more Indemnified Parties, and which in the reasonable judgment of such counsel are sufficient to create a

126

conflict of interest for the same counsel to represent both the Issuer and such Indemnified Party, (ii) the Issuer shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to represent the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, or (iii) the Issuer has authorized the employment of counsel for the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Issuer; then, in any such event, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in such action, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Issuer; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not in connection with any such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for any fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties. Each Indemnified Party, as a condition of the indemnity agreement contained herein, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Issuer in the defense of any such action or claim. The Issuer shall not, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding or threatened proceeding.

(c) Expenses. Indemnification under this Section shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.

Section 10.3.	Liability of the Administrator and Servicer; Indemnities.

(a) Obligations. Each of the Administrator and the Servicer, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Custodian, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Trust Estate, the Owner Trustee, each Derivative Counterparty and the Noteholders (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, and was imposed upon, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Custodian, the Owner Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Trust Estate or any Noteholder (i) in the case of indemnification by the Administrator, by reason of a violation of law, negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Administrator (or of the Receivables Seller, the Depositor or of the Issuer as a result of a direction, act or omission by the Administrator), in the performance of their respective obligations under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents or by reason of the breach by the Receivables Seller or the Servicer of any of their respective representations, warranties or covenants hereunder or, in the case of the Servicer, under the Designated Servicing Agreements, or (ii) in the case of indemnification by the Servicer, by reason of a violation of law, negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Servicer, in the performance of its respective obligations under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents or as servicer under the Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools, or by reason of the breach by the Servicer of any of its representations, warranties or covenants hereunder or under the Designated Servicing Agreements; provided, that any indemnification amounts payable by the Administrator or the Servicer, as the case may be, to the Owner Trustee hereunder shall not be duplicative of any indemnification amount paid by the Administrator to the Owner Trustee in accordance with the Trust Agreement or under the Administration Agreement.

(b) Notification and Defense. Promptly after any Indemnified Party shall have been served with the summons or other first legal process or shall have received written notice of the threat of a claim in respect of which a claim for indemnity may be made against the Administrator or the Servicer (such party, as the case may be, being referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Section 10.3, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the service of such summons, other legal process or written notice, giving information therein as to the nature and basis of the claim, but failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party will be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of any such claim or action and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party wishes to assume the defense of any such action, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section 10.3 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of any such action unless (i) the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party (upon the advice of counsel) shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or one or more Indemnified Parties, and which in the reasonable judgment of such counsel are sufficient to create a conflict of interest for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified

136

Party to represent the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, or (iii) the Indemnifying Party has authorized the employment of counsel for the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; then, in any such event, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in such action, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not in connection with any such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for any fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties. Each Indemnified Party, as a condition of the indemnity agreement contained herein, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such action or claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding or threatened proceeding.

(c) Expenses. Indemnification under this Section shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the Indemnifying Party has made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the recipient thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the recipient shall promptly repay such amounts collected to the Indemnifying Party, without interest.

(d) Survival. The provisions of this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee (in any of its capacities), the Calculation Agent, the Securities Intermediary and the Paying Agent and the termination of this Indenture.


Section 10.4.	Merger or Consolidation, or Assumption of the Obligations, of the Administrator or the Servicer.

137

this Indenture and one or more Opinions of Counsel updating or restating all opinions delivered on the date of this Indenture with respect to corporate matters and the enforceability of Transaction Documents against the Administrator or the Servicer, as the case may be, true sale as to the transfers of the Aggregate Receivables from the Servicer as Receivables Seller to the Depositor and non-consolidation of the Servicer with the Depositor and security interest and tax and any additional opinions required under any related Indenture Supplement; provided, further, that the conditions specified in clauses (B) and (C) shall not apply to any transaction (i) in which an Affiliate of the Receivables Seller assumes the obligations of the Receivables Seller and otherwise satisfies the eligibility criteria applicable to the Servicer under the Designated Servicing Agreements and Designated Pools or (ii) in which an Affiliate of the Receivables Seller is merged into or is otherwise combined with the Receivables Seller and the Receivables Seller is the sole survivor of such merger or other combination. The Administrator or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide prior written notice of any merger, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section to the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and each Note Rating Agency.

Except as described in the preceding paragraph, the Administrator may not assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Indenture or any other Transaction Document.

(c) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee will exercise such of 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.

(d) No provision of this Indenture will be construed to relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) this subsection (d) will not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section 11.1;

(ii) the Indenture Trustee will not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an Indenture Trustee Authorized Officer, unless it will be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iv) no provision of this Indenture will require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it has reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it; and

For the purpose of this Section 11.2, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default.

139

Mortgage Loans, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that Xxxxxx Mae Receivables are included in the Collateral and that there are Designated Servicing Agreements related to Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loans.

The Indenture Trustee will give prompt written notice of such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession to the Issuer and each Note Rating Agency that is then rating Outstanding Notes. If 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

146

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.


Section 11.12.	Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

At any time when any of the Notes remain Outstanding the Indenture Trustee, with the approval of the Issuer, may appoint an Authenticating Agent with respect to one or more Series or Classes of Notes which will be authorized to act on behalf of the Indenture Trustee to authenticate Notes of such Series or Classes issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 6.6, 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. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Indenture Trustee or an Indenture Trustee Authorized Signatory or to the Indenture Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication, such reference will be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a Certificate of Authentication executed on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.

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 11.12, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent will be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus 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 Section 11.12, such Authenticating Agent will resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

Any Person into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent will be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, will continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided that such Person will be otherwise eligible under Section 11.12, 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 if at any time such Authenticating Agent ceases to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, 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 1.7. 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.

The Indenture Trustee agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent (other than an Authenticating Agent appointed at the request of the Issuer, the Noteholders or the Administrator from time to time or appointed due to a change in law or other circumstance beyond the Indenture Trustee’s control) reasonable compensation for its services under this Section, out of the Indenture Trustee’s own funds without reimbursement pursuant to this Indenture.

If the Indenture Trustee shall request the Issuer to do so, the Issuer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the execution of such instrument, but the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment without making such request. A separate trustee or co-trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 11.13 need not meet the eligibility requirements of Section 11.8.

(b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent not prohibited by law, be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) the rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon such separate or co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate or co-trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the appointing instrument, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed any nonresident trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee;

(ii) all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, in respect of the custody of all cash deposited hereunder shall be exercised solely by the Indenture Trustee; and

148

(iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time by written instrument accept the resignation of or remove any such separate trustee or co-trustee, and, upon the request of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to make effective such resignation or removal, but the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to accept such resignation or to make such removal without making such request. A successor to a separate trustee or co-trustee so resigning or removed may be appointed in the manner otherwise provided herein.

(c) Such separate trustee or co-trustee, upon acceptance of such trust, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in such instrument, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such action as may be necessary to provide for (i) the appropriate interest in the Trust Estate to be vested in such separate trustee or co-trustee, (ii) the execution and delivery of any transfer documentation or note powers that may be necessary to give effect to the transfer of the Receivables to the co-trustee. Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, by written instrument, constitute the Indenture Trustee its agent or attorney in fact with full power and authority, to the extent permitted by law, to do all acts and things and exercise all discretion authorized or permitted by it, for and on behalf of it and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall be dissolved, become incapable of acting, resign, be removed or die, all the estates, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, without the appointment of a successor to said separate trustee or co-trustee, until the appointment of a successor to said separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary as provided in this Indenture.

(d) Any notice, request or other writing, by or on behalf of any Noteholder, delivered to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to all separate trustees and co-trustees.

(e) Although co-trustees may be jointly liable, no co-trustee or separate trustee shall be severally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any other such trustee hereunder.

(viii) to qualify for “off-balance sheet” treatment under GAAP, or to permit the Depositor to repurchase a specified percentage (not to exceed 2.50%) of the Receivables from the Issuer in order to achieve “on-balance sheet” treatment under GAAP (if such amendment is supported by a true sale opinion from external counsel to the Receivables Seller satisfactory to each Note Rating Agency rating Outstanding Notes and to each Noteholder of a Variable Funding Note); or

(ix) to prevent the Issuer from being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable as a corporation, each for United States federal income tax purposes; or

(xi) as otherwise provided in the related Indenture Supplement.

(b) In the event a material change occurs in Applicable Law, or in applicable foreclosure procedures used by prudent mortgage servicers generally, that requires or justifies, in the Administrator’s reasonable judgment, that a state currently categorized as a “Judicial State” be categorized as a “Non-Judicial State,” or vice versa, the Administrator will certify to the Indenture Trustee to such effect, supported by an opinion of counsel (or other form of assurance acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) in the case of a change in Applicable Law, and the categorization of the affected state or states will change from “Judicial State” to “Non-Judicial State,” or vice versa, for purposes of calculating Advance Rates applicable to Receivables.

(c) Additionally, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 12.2, unless otherwise provided in the related Indenture Supplement with respect to any amendment of this Indenture or an Indenture Supplement, and in addition to clauses (i) through (xi) above, this Indenture or an Indenture Supplement may also be amended by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Administrator, the Servicer and the Administrative Agent (in its sole and absolute discretion) without the consent of any of the Noteholders or any other Person, upon delivery of an Issuer Tax Opinion for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders of the Notes under this Indenture or any other Transaction Document; provided, however, that (i) the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the Issuer reasonably believes that such amendment could not have a material Adverse Effect on any Outstanding Notes and is not reasonably expected to have a material Adverse Effect at any time in the future; (ii) (1) each Note Rating Agency currently rating the Outstanding Notes confirms in writing to the Indenture Trustee that such amendment will not cause a Ratings Effect on any Outstanding Notes or (2) if the Administrator and the Administrative Agent determine in their reasonable judgment that an applicable Note Rating Agency no longer provides such written confirmation described in the foregoing clause (1), (a) the Administrator shall provide prior written notice of such amendment to the related Note Rating Agency and (b) the Administrative Agent shall have provided their prior written consent to such amendment and (iii) each Derivative Counterparty shall have consented to such amendment.

Except as permitted expressly by the Receivables Pooling Agreement, the Receivables Sale Agreement or as otherwise set forth herein, as applicable, the Servicer shall not enter into any amendment of the Receivables Sale Agreement, and the Issuer shall not enter into any amendment of the Receivables Pooling Agreement, without the consent of the Administrative Agent and, except for amendments meeting

151

the same criteria, and supported by the same Issuer Tax Opinion, Officer’s Certificate and other applicable deliverables, as applicable, as amendments to the Indenture entered into under Section 12.1(a), without the consent of together, the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes that are not Variable Funding Notes and the Series Required Noteholders for each Series of Variable Funding Notes.


Section 12.2.	Supplemental Indentures and Amendments with Consent of Noteholders.

In addition to any amendment permitted pursuant to Section 12.1, and subject to the terms and provisions of each Indenture Supplement with respect to any amendment to this Indenture or such Indenture Supplement, with prior notice to each Note Rating Agency, the consent of any applicable Derivative Counterparty and the consent of the Series Required Noteholders of each Series materially and adversely affected by such amendment of this Indenture, including any Indenture Supplement, by Act of said Noteholders delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Administrator, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the Indenture Trustee upon delivery of an Issuer Tax Opinion (unless the Noteholders unanimously consent to waive such opinion), may enter into an amendment of this Indenture for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders of the Notes of each such Series or Class under this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement; provided, however, that no such amendment will, without the consent of the Noteholder of each Outstanding Note materially and adversely affected thereby:

(a) change the scheduled payment date of any payment of interest on any Note held by such Noteholder, or change a Payment Date or Stated Maturity Date of any Note held by such Noteholder;

(b) reduce the Note Balance of, or the Note Interest Rate, Default Supplemental Fee Rate or ERD Supplemental Fee Rate on any Note held by such Noteholder, or change the method of computing the Note Balance or Note Interest Rate in a manner that is adverse to such Noteholder;

(d) reduce the percentage of Noteholders of the Outstanding Notes (or of the Outstanding Notes of any Series or Class), the consent of whose Noteholders is required for any such Amendment, or the consent of whose Noteholders is required for any waiver of compliance with the provisions of this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement or of defaults hereunder or thereunder and their consequences, provided for in this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement;

(e) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Section 8.15, except to increase any percentage of Noteholders required to consent to any such amendment or to provide that other provisions of this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Noteholder of each Outstanding Note adversely affected thereby;

(f) permit the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on the Collateral that is prior to the lien in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders of the Notes;

(g) change the method of computing the amount of principal of, or interest on, any Note held by such Noteholder on any date;

152

(h) increase any Advance Rates in respect of Notes held by such Noteholder or eliminate or decrease any collateral value exclusions in respect of Notes held by such Noteholder; or

(i) reduce the Target Amortization Amount in respect of any Target Amortization Event applicable to Notes held by such Noteholder.

In addition, any Indenture Supplement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified with the consent of each of the Noteholders of the Notes of the related Series and the related Administrative Agent and upon delivery of all opinions and certificates required pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 12.2 and pursuant to Section 12.3 unless waived by such consenting parties and the Indenture Trustee or as otherwise specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement. The consent of a Person that is an Administrative Agent or a Derivative Counterparty for one or more Series but is not an Administrative Agent or a Derivative Counterparty, as applicable, for any other Series is not required for any amendment, supplement or modification to any such other Series.

An amendment of this Indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular Series or Class of Notes, or which modifies the rights of the Noteholders of Notes of such Series or Class with respect to such covenant or other provision, will be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Noteholders of Notes of any other Series or Class.

It will not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it will be sufficient if such Act will approve the substance thereof.


Section 12.3.	Execution of Amendments.

In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any amendment or Indenture Supplement of this Indenture permitted by this Article XII or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 11.1) will be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment or Indenture Supplement is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied. The Indenture Trustee may, but will not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment or Indenture Supplement which affects the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. No such Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with any amendment consented to by all Noteholders and any applicable Derivative Counterparty. The cost of any amendment or Indenture Supplement of this Indenture permitted by this Article XII shall be paid, if requested by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders, from the Trust Estate.


Section 12.4.	Effect of Amendments.

Upon the execution of any amendment of this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement, or any Supplemental indentures under this Article XII, this Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement will be modified in accordance therewith with respect to each Series and Class of Notes affected thereby, or all Notes, as the case may be, and such amendment will form a part of this Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement for all purposes; and every Noteholder of Notes theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder will be bound thereby to the extent provided therein.


Section 12.5.	Reference in Notes to Indenture Supplements.

153

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any amendment of this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement or any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and will if required by the Indenture Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such amendment or supplemental indenture. If the Issuer so determines, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such amendment or supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

Article XIII

Early Redemption of Notes


Section 13.1.	Optional Redemption.

(a) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement for a Series or Class of Notes, the Issuer has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem a Series or Class of Notes in whole but not in part (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement for such Series or Class) on a date specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement or any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the aggregate Note Balance (after giving effect to all payments, if any, on that day) of such Series or Class is reduced to less than the percentage of the Initial Note Balance specified in the related Indenture Supplement (the “Redemption Percentage”).

If the Issuer, at the direction of the Administrator, elects to redeem Notes of a Series or Class of Notes pursuant to this Section 13.1(a), it will cause the Issuer to notify the Indenture Trustee, each Derivative Counterparty (as applicable, with respect to the related Series of Notes) and the Noteholders of such redemption at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Redemption Payment Date. Unless otherwise specified in the Indenture Supplement applicable to the Notes to be so redeemed, the redemption price of such Notes so redeemed will equal the Redemption Amount, as calculated by the Administrator, the payment of which will be subject to the allocations, deposits and payments sections of the related Indenture Supplement, if any.

If the Issuer is unable to pay the Redemption Amount in full on the Redemption Payment Date or the Redemption Date, such redemption shall be cancelled, notice of such cancelled redemption shall be sent by the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer to all Secured Parties and payments on such Notes will thereafter continue to be made in accordance with this Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement, and the Noteholders of such Notes and the related Administrative Agent shall continue to hold all rights, powers and options as set forth under this Indenture, until the outstanding Note Balance of such Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due in respect of such Notes, is paid in full or the Stated Maturity Date occurs, whichever is earlier, subject to Article VII, Article VIII and the allocations, deposits and payments sections of this Indenture and the related Indenture Supplement.

(b) Unless otherwise specified in the related Indenture Supplement, if the VFN Principal Balance of any Class of VFNs has been reduced to zero, then, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Noteholder thereof, the Issuer may declare such Class no longer Outstanding, in which case the Noteholder thereof shall submit such Class of Note to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation.

(c) The Notes of any Series or Class of Notes shall be subject to optional redemption under this Article XIII, in whole but not in part (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement), by the Issuer, through a Permitted Refinancing, using the proceeds of issuance and sale of a new Series or

154

Class of Notes issued pursuant to this Indenture or using funds received in respect of a draw on any Class or Series of Variable Funding Notes on any Business Day after the date on which the related Revolving Period ends, and on any Business Day within three (3) Business Days prior to the end of such Revolving Period or at other times specified in the related Indenture Supplement upon three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and any related Derivative Counterparty. Following issuance of the Redemption Notice by the Issuer pursuant to Section 13.2 below, the Issuer shall be required to purchase the entire aggregate Note Balance of such Notes for the Redemption Amount on the date set for such redemption (the “Redemption Date”).

(d) Issuer may redeem any Series or Class of Notes, in whole but not in part (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Indenture Supplement), through a Permitted Refinancing, using the proceeds of issuance and sale of a new Series or Class of Notes issued pursuant to this Indenture or using funds received in respect of a draw on any Class or Series of Variable Funding Notes on any other Business Day specified in the related Indenture Supplement.


Section 13.2.	Notice.

(a) Promptly after the occurrence of any optional redemption pursuant to Section 13.1, the Issuer will notify the Indenture Trustee, each Derivative Counterparty (as applicable, with respect to the related Series of Notes) and each related Note Rating Agency in writing of the identity and Note Balance of the affected Notes to be redeemed.

(b) Notice of redemption (each a “Redemption Notice”) will promptly be given as provided in Section 1.7. All notices of redemption will state (i) the Notes of the Series or Class of Notes to be redeemed pursuant to this Article XIII, (ii) the date on which the redemption of the Notes of such Series or Class of Notes to be redeemed pursuant to this Article will begin, which will be the Redemption Payment Date, and (iii) the redemption price for the Notes. Following delivery of a Redemption Notice by the Issuer, the Issuer shall be required to purchase the entire aggregate Note Balance of the Notes for the related Redemption Amount on the Redemption Date or the Redemption Payment Date, as applicable.

Article XIV

Miscellaneous


Section 14.1.	No Petition.

Each of the Indenture Trustee, the Administrative Agent, the Servicer and the Administrator, by entering into this Indenture, each Derivative Counterparty, each Supplemental Credit Enhancement Provider or Liquidity Provider, as applicable, by accepting its rights as a third party beneficiary hereunder, each Noteholder, by accepting a Note and each Note Owner by accepting a Note or a beneficial interest in a Note agrees that it will not at any time prior to the date which is one year and one day, or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect, after the payment in full of all the Notes, institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy or other similar 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, any Derivative Counterparty, any Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement and any Liquidity Facility; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prohibit or otherwise prevent the Indenture Trustee from filing proofs of claim in any such proceeding.

155


Section 14.2.	No Recourse.

No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a beneficial ownership interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or “control person” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act of the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial ownership interest in the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have 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.


Section 14.3.	Tax Treatment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Issuer has entered into this Indenture with the intention that for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes the Notes will qualify as indebtedness secured by the Receivables. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note and each purchaser of a beneficial interest therein, by accepting such beneficial interest, agree to treat such Notes (other than any Retained Note) as debt for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law in a proceeding of final determination. The Indenture Trustee shall treat the Trust Estate as a security device only. The provisions of this Indenture shall be construed in furtherance of the foregoing intended tax treatment.


Section 14.4.	Alternate Payment Provisions.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer, with the written consent of the Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agent, may enter into any agreement with any Noteholder of a Note providing for a method of payment or notice that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer will furnish to the Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agent a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agent will cause payments or notices, as applicable, to be made in accordance with such agreements.


Section 14.5.	Termination of Obligations.

The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Indenture Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation of the Indenture Trustee to make payments to Noteholders as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as set forth in Article VII, except with respect to the payment obligations described in Section 14.6(b). Upon this event, the Indenture Trustee shall release, assign and convey to the Issuer or any of its designees, without recourse, representation or warranty, all of its right, title and interest in the Collateral, whether then existing or thereafter created, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto (including all moneys then held in any Trust Account) and all proceeds thereof, except for amounts held by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 14.6(b). The Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer and assignment as shall be provided to it, in each case without recourse, as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer to vest in the Issuer or any of its designees all right, title and interest which the Indenture Trustee had in the Collateral.

156


Section 14.6.	Final Payment.

(a) The Issuer shall give the Indenture Trustee at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of the Payment Date on which the Noteholders of any Series or Class may surrender their Notes for payment of the final payment on and cancellation of such Notes. Not later than the second (2^nd) Business Day prior to the Payment Date on which the final payment in respect of such Series or Class is payable to Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee or the Paying Agent shall provide notice to Noteholders of such Series or Class and each Derivative Counterparty (if applicable) specifying (i) the date upon which final payment of such Series or Class will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes of such Series or Class 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. The Indenture Trustee shall give such notice to the Note Registrar and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Noteholders.

(b) Notwithstanding a final payment to the Noteholders of any Series or Class (or the termination of the Issuer), except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, all funds then on deposit in any Trust Account allocated to such Noteholders shall continue to be held in trust for the benefit of such Noteholders, and the Paying Agent or the Indenture Trustee shall pay such funds to such Noteholders upon surrender of their Notes, if such Notes are Definitive Notes. In the event that all such Noteholders shall not surrender their Notes for cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the notice from the Indenture Trustee described in clause (a), the Indenture Trustee shall give a second (2^nd) notice to the remaining such Noteholders to surrender their Notes for cancellation and receive the final payment with respect thereto. If within one year after the second (2^nd) notice all such Notes shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Indenture Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining such Noteholders concerning surrender of their Notes, and the cost thereof (including costs related to giving the second (2^nd) notice) shall be paid out of the funds in the Collection and Funding Account. Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, the Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer any monies held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two (2) years. After payment to the Issuer, Noteholders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person.


Section 14.7.	Derivative Counterparty, Supplemental Credit Enhancement Provider and Liquidity Provider as Third-Party Beneficiaries.

Each Derivative Counterparty, Supplemental Credit Enhancement Provider and Liquidity Provider (for purposes of Section 11.7) is a third-party beneficiary of this Indenture to the extent specified herein or in the applicable Derivative Agreement, Supplemental Credit Enhancement Agreement or Liquidity Facility.


Section 14.8.	Owner Trustee Limitation of Liability.

It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (a) this Indenture is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust, National Association, not individually or personally, but solely as Owner Trustee of the Issuer under the Trust Agreement, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as a personal representation, undertaking and agreement by Wilmington Trust, National Association but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer, (c) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust, National Association individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under

157

the parties hereto and (d) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust, National Association be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents.


Section 14.9.	Communications with Note Rating Agencies.

If the Notes issued hereunder are rated by a Note Rating Agency and if Servicer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee shall receive any written or oral communication from any Note Rating Agency (or any of the respective officers, directors or employees of any Note Rating Agency) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or under the Transaction Documents or in any way relating to the Notes, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the Indenture Trustee agree to refrain from communicating with such Note Rating Agency and to promptly notify the Administrator of such communication; provided, however, that if the Servicer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee receives an oral communication from a Note Rating Agency, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, is authorized to refer such Note Rating Agency to the Administrator, who will respond to such oral communication. At the written request of the Administrator, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the Indenture Trustee agree to cooperate with the Administrator to provide certain information to the Administrator that may be reasonably required by a Note Rating Agency to rate or to perform ratings surveillance on the Notes, and acknowledge and agree that the Administrator shall be permitted, in turn, to provide such information to the Note Rating Agencies at the internet address designated by the Administrator (or any replacement therefor identified by the Administrator); provided, that the Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the Indenture Trustee shall only be required to provide such information that is reasonably available to such party at the time of request. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents, under no circumstances shall the Servicer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee be required to participate in telephone conversations or other oral communications with a Note Rating Agency, nor shall the Servicer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee be prohibited from communicating with any nationally recognized statistical rating organization about matters other than the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Transaction Documents. Furthermore for the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee may make statements to Noteholders available on its website (as contemplated by Section 3.5(a) hereof), and such action is not prohibited by this Section 14.9.


Section 14.10.	Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, any other Transaction Documents or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties to the Transaction Documents, each party hereto hereby acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under this Indenture or any other Transaction Documents, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(i) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(ii) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(A) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

158

(B) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Indenture or any other Transaction Document; or

(C) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent and any agent of the Issuer, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer or other parties thereto and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time pursuant to the terms and provisions of Article XII of the Base Indenture and Section [ ] of the [Series Name] Indenture Supplement. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes representing specified percentages of the Outstanding Notes or a particular Class of Notes, on behalf of all of the Noteholders, or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, 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 to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of any Noteholder.

The term “Issuer” as used in this Note includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

Exhibit A-1-10

such payment, and such right will not be impaired without the consent of the Holder; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture to the contrary, the obligation to pay principal of or interest on this Note or any other amount payable to the Holder will be without recourse to the Receivables Seller, the Depositor, the Administrator, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Calculation Agent, the Paying Agent, the Securities Intermediary or any Affiliate (other than the Issuer), officer, employee or director of any of them, and the obligation of the Issuer to pay principal of or interest on this Note or any other amount payable to the Holder will be limited to amounts available from the Trust Estate and subject to the priority of payment set forth in the Indenture.

Notwithstanding any other terms of the Indenture or this Note, the obligations of the Issuer hereunder are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate, and following realization of the Trust Estate and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the Holder hereof shall not be entitled to take any further steps to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No Holder of this Note shall have recourse for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Note or the Indenture or for any action or inaction of the Issuer against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, stockholder or incorporator of the Issuer or any of their successors or assigns for any amounts payable under this Note or the Indenture. The foregoing provisions of this Note shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Trust Estate for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Trust Estate, (ii) save as specifically provided therein, constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by this Note or secured by the Indenture, or (iii) limit the right of any Person, to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under this Note or the Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Person or entity.

The rights of the Noteholder under this Note are subject and subordinate, in each and every respect, to all rights, powers, and prerogatives of Xxxxxxx Mac under and in connection with (i) the terms and conditions of that certain Consent Agreement, dated as of February 9, 2018, and effective as of February 12, 2018 (as may be amended or modified from time to time in accordance with its express terms, the “Consent Agreement”), with respect to the “Reimbursement Assignments and Pledge” of the “Reimbursement Rights” (as such terms are defined in the Consent Agreement), by and among Xxxxxxx Mac, Ditech Financial LLC, Depositor, Issuer, Indenture Trustee, and Administrative Agent, (ii) the terms and conditions of the Purchase Documents as defined in the Xxxxxxx Mac Single Family Seller/Servicer Guide, as it may be amended from time to time, other than as set forth pursuant to the express terms and provisions of the Consent Agreement, and (iii) all claims of Xxxxxxx Mac arising out of or relating to any and all breaches, defaults and outstanding obligations of debtor to Xxxxxxx Mac.

The rights of the Noteholder under this Note are subject and subordinate to all rights, powers, and prerogatives of Xxxxxx Xxx under and in connection with (i) the terms and conditions of that certain Acknowledgment Agreement With Respect to Servicing Advance Receivables, by and among Xxxxxx Mae, Ditech Financial LLC, Depositor, Issuer, Indenture Trustee and Credit Suisse as Administrative Agent, and (ii) the Mortgage Selling and Servicing Contract, the Xxxxxx Xxx Selling Guide, the Xxxxxx Mae Servicing Guide and any supplemental servicing instructions or

Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, dated as of February 9, 2018, and effective as of February 12, 2018 (as may be amended from time to time, the “Indenture”), among Ditech Agency Advance Trust, as Issuer, Ditech Financial LLC, as Administrator and Servicer, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as Indenture Trustee, Calculation Agent, Paying Agent and Securities Intermediary and Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, as Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

The undersigned (the “Transferee”) intends to purchase $_____ Note Balance of Class _____ Notes (the “Notes”) from the Transferor named in the Transfer Certificate to which this Transferee Certification is attached. In connection with the registration of the transfer of such Notes, the Transferee hereby executes and delivers to each of you this “Transferee Certification” in which the Transferee certifies to each of you the information set forth herein.

3. The Transferee understands that the Notes have not been registered under the 1933 Act or registered or qualified under any state securities laws and that no transfer may be made unless the Notes are registered under the 1933 Act and under applicable state law or unless the transfer complies with Section 6.5 of the Indenture and any provision in any applicable Indenture Supplement. The Transferee further understands that neither the Transferor, the Administrator, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee nor the Note Registrar is under any obligation to register the Notes or make an exemption from such registration available.

4. The Transferee is acquiring the Notes for its own account or for the account of a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A, a “QIB”), and understands that such Notes may be resold, pledged or transferred only (a) to a person reasonably believed to be such a QIB that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (b) to a transferee that is a person that is not a U.S. person acquiring such interest in an “offshore transaction” (as defined in Regulation S) in compliance with the provisions of Regulation S, if the transfer is otherwise made in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other relevant jurisdiction. In addition, such transfer may be subject to additional restrictions and is subject to compliance with certain procedures, as set forth in Section 6.5 of the Indenture referred to below and any provision in any applicable Indenture Supplement. By its execution of this agreement, the Transferee agrees that it will not resell, pledge or transfer any of the Notes to anyone otherwise than in strict compliance with Rule 144A, or pursuant to another exemption from registration under the 1933 Act and all applicable state securities laws, and in strict compliance with the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 6.5 of the Indenture. The Transferee will not attempt to transfer any or all of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A unless the Transferee offers and sells such Certificates only to QIBs or to offerees or purchasers that the Transferee and any person acting on behalf of the Transferee reasonably believe (as described in paragraph (d)(l) of Rule 144A) is a QIB.

5. The Transferee has been furnished with all information that it requested regarding (a) the Notes and distributions thereon and (b) the Indenture.

6. The Transferee has knowledge in financial and business matters and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes; the Transferee has sought such

Exhibit B-1-6

accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision; and the Transferee (or any account or which it is pursuing) is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Notes and can afford a complete loss of such investment.

7. The Transferee is an “accredited investor” as defined in paragraph (1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501(a) under the 1933 Act.

8. Either (i) the Transferee is not, and is not acquiring, holding or transferring the Notes on behalf of or using assets of, an “employee benefit plan” as defined in section 3(3) of ERISA, a plan described in section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any such employee benefit plan or plan pursuant to 29 C.F.R. section 2510.3-101 as modified by section 3(42) of ERISA (the “Plan Asset Regulations”), which employee benefit plan, plan or entity is subject to Title I of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code, or a governmental, non-U.S. or church plan which is subject to any U.S. federal, state, local or other law that is substantially similar to Title I of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”), or (ii) (A) the Transferee is acquiring a Note other than a Specified Note, (B) as of the date of the transfer or purchase, the Note is rated at least investment grade, it believes that such Note is properly treated as indebtedness without substantial equity features for purposes of the Plan Asset Regulations and agrees to so treat such Note and (C) the Transferee’s acquisition, holding and disposition of the Notes will satisfy the requirements of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14 (relating to transactions affected by a qualified professional asset manager), PTCE 90-1 (relating to investments by insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTCE 91-38 (relating to investments in bank collective investment funds), PTCE 95-60 (relating to transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 96-23 (relating to transactions directed by an in-house professional asset manager) or the statutory prohibited transaction exemption for service providers set forth in section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code or a similar class or statutory exemption and will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under section 406 of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code (or, in the case of a governmental, non-U.S. or church plan subject to Similar Law, will not violate any such substantially Similar Law).

9. If the Transferee is acquiring the Notes as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations, warranties and agreements on behalf of each such account.

All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture, pursuant to which the Notes were issued.

The Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), because (a) the Transferee is an investment company (a “Registered Investment Company”) registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and (b) as marked below, the Transferee alone, or the Transferee’s Family of Investment Companies, owned at least $[Note to reviewer - the amount in the previous blank must be at least $100,000,000] in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to in paragraph 4 below) as of [specify a date on or since the end of the Transferee’s most recently ended fiscal year]. For purposes of determining the amount of securities owned by the Transferee or the Transferee’s Family of Investment Companies, the cost of such securities to the Transferee or the Transferee’s Family of Investment Companies was used.

_____ The Transferee owned $_____ in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to in paragraph 4 below) as of the end of the Transferee’s most recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A).

_____ The Transferee is part of a Family of Investment Companies which owned in the aggregate $_____ in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to in paragraph 4 below) as of the end of the Transferee’s most recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A).

3. The term “Family of Investment Companies” as used herein means two or more Registered Investment Companies except for a unit investment trust whose assets consist solely of shares of one or more Registered Investment Companies (provided that each series of a “series company,” as defined in Rule 18f-2 under the 1940 Act, shall be deemed to be a separate investment company) that have the same investment adviser (or, in the case of a unit investment trust, the same depositor) or investment advisers (or depositors) that are affiliated (by virtue of being majority-owned subsidiaries of the same parent or because one investment adviser is a majority-owned subsidiary of the other).

4. The term “securities” as used herein does not include (a) securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee or are part of the Transferee’s Family of Investment Companies, (b) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (c) loan participations, (d) repurchase agreements, (e) securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (f) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps.

5. The Transferee is familiar with Rule 144A and understands that the parties to which this certification is being made are relying and will continue to rely on the statements made herein

Exhibit B-1-12

because one or more sales to the Transferee will be in reliance on Rule 144A. In addition, the Transferee will only purchase for the Transferee’s own account.

6. The undersigned will notify the parties to which this certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein. Until such notice, the Transferee’s purchase of the Purchased Certificates will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification by the undersigned as of the date of such purchase.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this certificate to be executed by its duly authorized representative this _____ day of _____, _____.

Exhibit B-2- 5

of these representations, (v) understands that such Notes may not, absent an applicable exemption, be transferred without registration and/or qualification under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and the laws of any other applicable jurisdiction and (vi) understands that prior to the end of the Distribution Compliance Period, interests in a Regulation S Note may only be held through Euroclear or Clearstream.

2. The Transferee understands that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons (as defined in Rule 902(k) promulgated under the Securities Act) unless they are registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from registration is available. Accordingly, the certificates representing the Notes will bear a legend stating that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and setting forth certain of the restrictions on transfer of the Notes. The Transferee understands that the Issuer has no obligation to register the Notes under the Securities Act or to comply with the requirements for any exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

3. The Transferee understands that the Notes (or any interest therein) may be resold, pledged or transferred only (a) to a person whom the Transferee reasonably believes after due inquiry is, and who has certified that it is, a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (b) to a transferee that is a non-U.S. person acquiring such interest in an “offshore transaction” (as defined in Regulation S) in compliance with the provisions of Regulation S, if the transfer is otherwise made in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other relevant jurisdiction. In addition, such transfer may be subject to additional restrictions and is subject to compliance with certain procedures, as set forth in Section 6.5 of the Indenture referred to above.

4. The Transferee has been furnished with all information that it requested regarding (a) the Notes and distributions thereon and (b) the Indenture.

5. The Transferee has knowledge in financial and business matters and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes; the Transferee has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision; and the Transferee (or any account or which it is pursuing) is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Notes and can afford a complete loss of such investment.

6. [For Notes other than Specified Notes (unless otherwise specified in the related Supplement)] Either (i) the Transferee is not, and is not acquiring, holding or transferring the Notes on behalf of or with assets of, an “employee benefit plan” as defined in section 3(3) of ERISA, a plan described in section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any such employee benefit plan or plan pursuant to 29 C.F.R.

[For Specified Notes (unless otherwise specified in the related Supplement)] The Transferee is not, and is not acquiring, holding or transferring the Notes on behalf of or with assets of, an “employee benefit plan” as defined in section 3(3) of ERISA, a plan described in section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any such employee benefit plan or plan pursuant to 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 as modified by section 3(42) of ERISA, which employee benefit plan, plan or entity is subject to Title I of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code, or a governmental, non-U.S., or church plan which is subject to any Similar Law.

The undersigned (the “Transferee”) intends to purchase a beneficial interest in a Class 1 Specified Note representing $_____ principal balance of a Class 1 Specified Note from _____ [the Transferor named in the Transfer Certificate to which this Transferee Certification is attached]. In connection with the transfer of such beneficial interest in a Class 1 Specified Note (the “Transfer”), the Transferee does hereby certify that:

Exhibit D-1

(i) Either (a) it is not and will not become for U.S. federal income tax purposes a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or grantor trust (each such entity a “flow-through entity”) or (b) if it is or becomes a flow-through entity, then (I) none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such flow-through entity has or ever will have more than 50% of the value of its interest in such flow-through entity attributable to the beneficial interest of such flow-through entity in the Notes, other interest (direct or indirect) in the Issuer, or any interest created under the Indenture and (II) it is not and will not be a principal purpose of the arrangement involving the flow-through entity’s beneficial interest in any Class 1 Specified Note to permit any partnership to satisfy the 100-partner limitation of Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations necessary for such partnership not to be classified as a publicly traded partnership under the Internal Revenue Code.

(ii) It is not acquiring any beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note and it will not sell, transfer, assign, participate, or otherwise dispose of any or beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note and it will not cause any beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note to be marketed, in each case on or through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof),” each within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, including, without limitation, an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations.

(iii) Its beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Notes is not and will not be in an amount that is less than the minimum denomination for the Class 1 Specified Notes set forth in the Indenture, and it does not and will not hold any beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note on behalf of any Person whose beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note is in an amount that is less than the minimum denomination for the Class 1 Specified Notes set forth in the Indenture. It will not sell, transfer, assign, participate, or otherwise dispose of any beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note or enter into any financial instrument or contract the value of which is determined by reference in whole or in part to any Class 1 Specified Note, in each case if the effect of doing so would be that the beneficial interest of any Person in a Class 1 Specified Note would be in an amount that is less than the minimum denomination for the Class 1 Specified Notes set forth in the Indenture.

(iv) It will not transfer any beneficial interest in the Class 1 Specified Note (directly, through a participation thereof, or otherwise) unless, prior to the transfer, the transferee shall have executed and delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar, and any of their respective successors or assigns, a Transferee Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit E of the Indenture.

(v) It will not use the Class 1 Specified Note as collateral for the issuance of any securities that could cause the Trust to become subject to taxation as a taxable mortgage pool taxable as a corporation, publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation or association taxable as a corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes, provided that it may engage in any repurchase transaction (repo) the subject matter of which is a Class 1 Specified Note, provided the terms of such repurchase transaction are generally consistent with prevailing market practice.

Exhibit D-2

(vi) It will not take any action and will not allow any other action that could cause the Trust to become taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(vii) The Transferee understands that tax counsel to the Trust has provided an opinion substantially to the effect that the Trust will not be taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that the validity of such opinion is dependent in part on the accuracy of the representations herein.

(viii) This Transferee Certification has been duly executed and delivered and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Transferee, enforceable against the Transferee in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws or equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity, and indemnification sought in respect of securities laws violations may be limited by public policy.

(ix) It acknowledges that the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrar and others will rely on the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties, and agrees that if it becomes aware that any of the foregoing made by it or deemed to have been made by it are no longer accurate, it shall promptly notify the Issuer.

THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY TRANSFER TO OR BY THE UNDERSIGNED IN VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING WILL BE OF NO FORCE AND EFFECT, WILL BE VOID AB INITIO, AND WILL NOT OPERATE TO TRANSFER ANY RIGHTS TO OR BY THE TRANSFEREE, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY INSTRUCTIONS TO THE CONTRARY TO THE ISSUER, THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE, THE NOTE REGISTRAR OR ANY OTHER PERSON.
