Agreement may be assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee to a corporation or other organization that is a successor (by merger, consolidation or
purchase of assets) to the Administrator; provided that such successor organization executes and
delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in which such
corporation or other organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in
the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement
shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto.
