Eligible Lender Trustee or the Administrator as freely as if it did not act in
any capacity under this Agreement.
6. Representations and Warranties. (a) The Administrator represents
and warrants to, and agrees with, each of the Remarketing Agents as of the date
of this Agreement, and as of each Remarketing Terms Determination Date, Spread

the date of this Agreement, the related Remarketing Materials (as defined in
this Agreement) will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
(b) The Administrator further represents and warrants to, and agrees
with, each of the Remarketing Agents as of each Representation Date as follows:
(i) The Trust has not sustained since the respective dates as of
which information is given in the Remarketing Materials any material loss
or interference with its business or properties, otherwise than as set
forth or contemplated in such Remarketing Materials; and, since such

amended (the "1939 Act"). The Indenture and the Trust Agreement each

accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity
principles.
(iv) The compliance by the Trust and the Administrator with all
of the provisions of the Notes, the Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the
Swap Agreements, this Agreement and the applicable Remarketing Agency
Agreement or Supplemental Remarketing Agency Agreement, as the case may
be, and the consummation of the transactions in this Agreement and therein
contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of
any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default in the
-5-
performance or observance of any material obligation contained in any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or
instrument to which the Trust or the Administrator is a party or by which
the Trust or the Administrator is bound or to which any of the property or
assets of the Trust, or the Administrator is subject, nor will such action
result in any violation of the provisions of the Trust Agreement, the
Administrator's certificate of incorporation or by-laws, or any statute or
any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body
having jurisdiction over the Trust or the Administrator or any of their
properties; and no consent, approval, authorization, order, registration
or qualification of or with any such court or governmental agency or body
is required for the consummation by the Trust or the Administrator of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the applicable Remarketing
Agency Agreement or Supplemental Remarketing Agency Agreement, as the case
may be, the Trust Agreement or the Indenture, except such as have been, or
shall have been, obtained.
(v) The Administrator is not in violation of its certificate of
incorporation or by-laws, and the Trust is not in violation of its Trust
Agreement, and neither the Administrator nor the Trust is in default in
the performance or observance of any material obligation, agreement,
covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a
party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound.

the financial statements included in SLC's most recent Annual Report
on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, filed with

which the Trust or the Administrator or any of its subsidiaries is a party
or of which any property of the Trust or the Administrator or any of its
subsidiaries is the subject which, if determined adversely to the Trust or
the Administrator or any of its subsidiaries, would individually or in the
aggregate have a material adverse effect on the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or the ability of the Administrator to
perform all of its obligations with respect to the Trust; and, to the best
of the Administrator's knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or
contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others.
(vii) The Trust is not an "investment company" or an entity
"controlled" by an "investment company," as such terms are defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(viii) Each of this Agreement and the applicable Remarketing
Agency Agreement, and Supplemental Remarketing Agency Agreement, as the
case may be, has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trust
and the Administrator and, assuming it has been duly executed and
delivered by the Remarketing Agents, constitutes a valid and binding
agreement of the Trust and the Administrator, enforceable against each of
the Trust and the Administrator in accordance with its terms, except as
the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency
(including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting enforcement of
creditors' rights generally) and except as enforcement
-6-
thereof is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether
enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except
further as the enforcement thereof may be subject to limitations on rights
to indemnity or contribution or both by Federal or state securities laws
or the public policies underlying such laws.
(ix) The Notes have such ratings as to which either the
Administrator shall have most recently notified the Remarketing Agents
pursuant to Section 7(a) of this Agreement or as are otherwise available
to the Remarketing Agents in the ordinary course.

matters covered thereby on the date of such certificate and, unless subsequently
amended or supplemented, at each Representation Date subsequent thereto.

hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Trust and the
Administrator that it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and
will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement
to engage in investment activity, with the meaning of section 21 of the
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA"), received by it in

21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Trust, and
it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with
respect to anything done by it in relation to the Remarketing of Notes in, from
or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, in this Agreement
contained; or
(viii) any Rating Agency Condition shall not have been timely

9. Indemnification. (a) The Administrator shall indemnify and hold
harmless each of the Remarketing Agents and each Person, if any, who controls a
Remarketing Agent within the meaning of Section 20 of the 1934 Act and any
director, officer, employee or affiliate thereof, as follows:
(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of (A) the failure of the
Administrator on behalf of the Trust to comply with the requirements of
Section 7(f), if applicable, or (B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any of the Remarketing Materials
(including in each case any documents incorporated by reference therein),
or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or (C)
any violation by the Trust or the Administrator of, or any failure by the
Trust or the Administrator to perform any of its obligations under, this
Agreement, including the applicable Remarketing Agency Agreement or
-12-
Supplemental Remarketing Agency Agreement, or (D) the acts or omissions of
each of the Remarketing Agents in connection with their duties and
obligations in respect of administrative or ministerial functions under
this Agreement or pursuant to this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the calculation of rates, the giving or receiving of notices
and any determinations with respect to any Swap Agreements, except those
that are finally judicially determined to be due to its gross negligence
or willful misconduct;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount
paid in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any
claim whatsoever arising out of, or based upon, any of items (A) through
(D) of clause (i) above; provided that any such settlement is effected
with the written consent of the Administrator, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred
(including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Remarketing
Agents), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever
arising out of, or based upon, any of items (A) through (D) of clause (i)
above to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii)
above;
provided, however, that this indemnity shall not apply to any loss, liability,
claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or
omission or alleged untrue statement or omission either made in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Administrator by the
Remarketing Agents expressly for use in the Remarketing Materials or contained
in any Remarketing Materials not approved by the Administrator for use in
connection with the related Remarketing.
(b) Each of the Remarketing Agents, severally and not jointly, shall
indemnify .and hold harmless the Trust, the Administrator and the Depositor from
and against any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense, as incurred, but
only with respect to untrue statements or omissions made in the Remarketing
Materials in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the
Administrator in writing by the Remarketing Agents expressly for use in such
Remarketing Materials and will reimburse any indemnified party for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action The indemnity agreement in this
paragraph shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to each Person, if
any, who controls the Administrator within the meaning of Section 20 of the 1934
Act.
(c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as
reasonably .practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced
against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement, but
failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying
party from any liability under this Agreement to the extent it is not materially
prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any
liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity
agreement In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to clause (a) above,
counsel to the indemnified parties shall be
-13-
selected by the Remarketing Agents, and, in the case of parties indemnified
pursuant to clause (b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be
selected by the Administrator. An indemnifying party may participate at its own
expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to
the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified
party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the
indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel
(in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all
indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or
related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general
allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to
the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation
or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or
any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could
be sought under this Section 9 or Section 10 of this Agreement (whether or not
the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such
settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each
indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation,
investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to
or an admission or fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any
indemnified party.
(d) The indemnity agreements contained in this Section 9 shall
remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Remarketing Agents, and shall survive the
termination or cancellation of this Agreement and the Remarketing of any Notes
under this Agreement.
10. Contribution. (a) If the indemnification provided for in Section
9 of this Agreement is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold
harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims,
damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall
contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages
and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
Trust and the Administrator on the one hand and the Remarketing Agents on the
other hand from the Remarketing of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement and the
applicable Remarketing Agency Agreement and Supplemental Remarketing Agency
Agreement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by
applicable law, or if the indemnified party fails to give notice required under
Section 9(c), in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the Trust and the Administrator on the one hand and of the Remarketing Agents on
the other hand in connection with the acts, failures to act, statements or
omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
(b) The relative benefits received by the Trust and the
Administrator, on the one hand, and the Remarketing Agents, on the other hand,
in connection with the Remarketing of a class of Notes pursuant to this
Agreement and the applicable Remarketing Agency Agreement and Supplemental
Remarketing Agency Agreement, shall, as to the Remarketing to which the
applicable losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses relate, be deemed to
be in the same respective proportions as the aggregate principal balance of such
class of Notes outstanding at
-14-
the time of such Remarketing bears to the commissions and fees received by the
Remarketing Agents in connection with such Remarketing.
(c) The relative fault of the Trust and the Administrator on the one
hand and the Remarketing Agents on the other hand shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, the responsibility under this Agreement of the
applicable party for any act or failure to act relating to the losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred or, in the case of any losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses arising out of any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any of the Remarketing
Materials or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
therefrom, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Trust or the Administrator or by the Remarketing
Agents and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(d) The Administrator and the Remarketing Agents agree that it would
not be .just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this
Section 10. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and
expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section
10 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such act
or failure to act or untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission.
(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Xxxxxxx 00, xxxx of the
Remarketing Agents shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
amount by which the total price at which the Notes remarketed by it and resold
to investors were sold to investors exceeds the amount of any damages which any
of the Remarketing Agents would have otherwise been required to pay by reason of
any act or failure to act for which it is responsible under this Agreement or
any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
(f) No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from
any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(g) For purposes of this Section 10, each Person, if any, who
controls any of the Remarketing Agents within the meaning of Section 20 of the
1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Remarketing Agents,
and each director of the Administrator and each of its officers, and each
Person, if any, who controls the Administrator within the meaning of Section 20
of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Administrator.
(h) The obligations of the Remarketing Agents in this Section 10 to
contribute are several in proportion to their respective Remarketing obligations
with respect to the Notes and not joint.
-15-
11. Termination of this Agreement. Subject (i) to Section 3 of this
Agreement relating to the payment of fees and expenses, (ii) to Section 9 of
this Agreement relating to indemnification and (iii) to any claims under this
Agreement arising out of or relating to any Remarketing prior to termination,
this Agreement shall terminate as to any Remarketing Agent on the effective date
of the removal or resignation of such Remarketing Agent pursuant to Section 4 of
this Agreement.
12. Remarketing Agents' Performance and Duty of Care. The duties and
obligations of each Remarketing Agent under this Agreement shall be determined

against any Remarketing Agent as a result of such Remarketing Agent not

IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS
MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE.
14. Term of Agreement. Unless otherwise terminated in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect from the date of this Agreement until the first day thereafter on
which no Notes are Outstanding.
15. Successors and Assigns. (a) The rights and obligations of the
Trust may not be assigned or delegated to any other Person without the prior
written consent of the Remarketing Agents. The rights and obligations of the
Administrator under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated to any successor
Administrator under the Administration Agreement upon prior notice to the
Remarketing Agents. The rights and obligations of the Remarketing Agents under
this Agreement may be assigned or delegated to any Affiliate thereof without the
consent of the Trust or the Administrator, and to any other Person with the
prior written consent of the Administrator. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the Trust, the Administrator and the Remarketing
Agents and their respective successors and assigns. The terms "successors" and
"assigns" shall not include any purchaser of any Notes merely because of such
purchase. The Administrator may appoint additional Remarketing Agents, which
Remarketing Agents may join in this Agreement or a separate agreement in form
and substance substantially similar to this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 15(a) and
Sections 9 and 10 of this Agreement, in the event the rights and obligations of
the Administrator under this Agreement are assigned to any successor
Administrator under the Administration Agreement as provided in Section 15(a),
and the Remarketing Agents receive notice of such assignment during the period
on or after the 15th Business Day prior to a Remarketing Terms Determination
Date, then, unless the Remarketing Agents consent to such assignment, for
purposes of the indemnification and contribution provisions set forth in
Sections 9 and 10 of this Agreement, the then-current Administrator under this
Agreement shall remain obligated under the terms of Sections 9 and 10 of this
Agreement in respect of the Remarketing effected or Failed Remarketing in

interpretation of any provisions of this Agreement.
17. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
or deemed to be or shall, in fact, be invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as
applied in any particular case in any or all jurisdictions because it conflicts
with any provision of any constitution, statute, rule or public policy or for
any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the
provision in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other case,
circumstances or jurisdiction, or of rendering any other provision or provisions
of this Agreement invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent
whatsoever.
