For purposes of this Transaction:

9)
Provisions Relating to Downgrade of BNY Debt Ratings.
(i)
For purposes of this Transaction:
(a)
A “Collateralization Ratings Event” shall occur with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support provider) if:
(x)
its short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is reduced to “P-1 on watch for downgrade” or below, and its long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt is reduced to ”A1 on watch for downgrade” or below (or, if it has no short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating, its long term rating is reduced to “Aa3 on watch for downgrade” or below) by Moody’s, or
(y)
its short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is reduced below “A-1” by S&P.
Such ratings are referred to herein as the “Qualifying Ratings.”
(b)
A “Ratings Event” shall occur with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support provider) if:
(x)
its short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn or reduced to “P-2” or below by Moody’s and its long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt is reduced to “A3” or below (or, if it has no short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating, its long term rating is reduced to “A2” or below) by Moody’s, or
(y)
its long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn or reduced below “BBB-” by S&P.
For purposes of (a) and (b) above, such events include those occurring in connection with a merger, consolidation or other similar transaction by BNY or any applicable credit support provider, but they shall be deemed not to occur if, within 30 days thereafter (provided, that this shall not be construed to extend the period within which actions are to be taken as provided in Paragraph 4(9)(ii) below), each of Moody’s and S&P has reconfirmed the ratings of the Certificates, as applicable, which were in effect immediately prior thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, a downgrade of the rating on the Certificates could occur in the event that BNY does not post sufficient collateral.
(c)
“Rating Agency Condition” means, with respect to any particular proposed act or omission to act hereunder, that the Securities Administrator shall have received prior written confirmation from each of Moody’s and S&P , and shall have provided notice thereof to BNY, that the proposed action or inaction would not cause a downgrade or withdrawal of their then-current ratings of the Certificates.
(ii)
Subject, in each case set forth in (a) and (b) below, to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition:
(a)
Collateralization Ratings Event. If a Collateralization Ratings Event occurs with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support provider), then BNY shall, at its own expense, within thirty (30) days of such Collateralization Ratings Event:
(w)
post collateral under agreements and other instruments approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and satisfactory to Moody’s and S&P, which will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of the Certificates,
(x)
assign this Transaction to a third party, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, on terms substantially similar to this Confirmation, which party is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
(y)
obtain a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of, another person, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, to honor BNY’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that such other person is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, or
(z)
establish any other arrangement approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and satisfactory to Moody’s and S&P which will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of their Certificates.
(b)
Ratings Event. If a Ratings Event occurs with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support provider), then BNY shall, at its own expense, within ten (10) Business Days of such Ratings Event:
(x)
assign this Transaction to a third party, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, on terms substantially similar to this Confirmation, which party is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
(y)
obtain a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of, another person, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, to honor BNY’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that such other person is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, or
(z)
establish any other arrangement approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and satisfactory to Moody’s and S&P which will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of their Certificates.
10)
Compliance with Regulation AB.
(a)
It shall be a swap disclosure event (“Swap Disclosure Event”) if, at any time after the date hereof, the Securities Administrator (acting on behalf of the Depositor or the Sponsor) notifies BNY that the aggregate “significance percentage” (calculated in accordance with the provisions of Item 1115 of Regulation AB) of all derivative instruments provided by BNY and any of its affiliates to Counterparty (collectively, the “Aggregate Significance Percentage”) is 10% or more.
(b)
Upon the occurrence of a Swap Disclosure Event, BNY, at its own cost and expense (and without any expense or liability to the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Underwriters, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Issuing Entity), shall take one of the following actions: (i) provide to the Sponsor and the Depositor: (x) if the Aggregate Significance Percentage is 10% or more, but less than 20%, the information required under Item 1115(b)(1) of Regulation AB or (y) if the Aggregate Significance Percentage is 20% or more, within five (5) Business Days, the information required under Item 1115(b)(2) of Regulation AB; or (ii) assign its rights and delegate its obligations under the Transaction to a counterparty with the Approved Ratings Thresholds (or which satisfies the Rating Agency Condition), that (x) provides the information specified in clause (i) above to the Depositor and Sponsor and (y) enters into documentation substantially similar to the documentation then in place between BNY and the Counterparty.
(c)
For so long as the Aggregate Significance Percentage is 10% or more, BNY shall provide any updates to the information provided pursuant to clause (b) above to the Sponsor and the Depositor within five (5) Business Days following availability thereof (but in no event more than 45 days after the end of each of BNY’s fiscal quarter for any quarterly update, and in no even more than 90 days after the end of each of BNY’s fiscal year for any annual update).
(d)
All information provided pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) shall be in a form suitable for conversion to the format required for filing by the Depositor with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (XXXXX). In addition, any such information, if audited, shall be accompanied by any necessary auditor’s consents or, if such information is unaudited, shall be accompanied by an appropriate agreed-upon procedures letter from BNY’s accountants. If permitted by Regulation AB, any such information may be provided by reference to or incorporation by reference from reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.
11)
Additional Provisions. Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 5 and 6 of the ISDA Form Master Agreement, if the Counterparty has satisfied its payment obligations under Section 2(a)(i) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement, and shall, at the time, have no future payment or delivery obligation, whether absolute or contingent, then unless BNY is required pursuant to appropriate proceedings to return to the Counterparty or otherwise returns to the Counterparty upon demand of the Counterparty any portion of such payment, (a) the occurrence of an event described in Section 5(a) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement with respect to the Counterparty shall not constitute an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to the Counterparty as the Defaulting Party and (b) BNY shall be entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of the ISDA Form Master Agreement only as a result of a Termination Event set forth in either Section 5(b)(i) or Section 5(b)(ii) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement with respect to BNY as the Affected Party or Section 5(b)(iii) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement with respect to BNY as the Burdened Party.

its short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn or reduced to “P-2” or below by Xxxxx’x and its long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt is reduced to “A3” or below (or, if it has no short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating, its long term rating is reduced to “A2” or below) by Xxxxx’x, or
(y)
its long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn or reduced below “BBB-” by S&P.
For purposes of (a) and (b) above, such events include those occurring in connection with a merger, consolidation or other similar transaction by BNY or any applicable credit support provider, but they shall be deemed not to occur if, within 30 days thereafter (provided, that this shall not be construed to extend the period within which actions are to be taken as provided in Paragraph 4(9)(ii) below), each of Xxxxx’x and S&P has reconfirmed the ratings of the Certificates, as applicable, which were in effect immediately prior thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, a downgrade of the rating on the Certificates could occur in the event that BNY does not post sufficient collateral.
(c)
“Rating Agency Condition” means, with respect to any particular proposed act or omission to act hereunder, that the Securities Administrator shall have received prior written confirmation from each of Xxxxx’x and S&P , and shall have provided notice thereof to BNY, that the proposed action or inaction would not cause a downgrade or withdrawal of their then-current ratings of the Certificates.
(ii)
Subject, in each case set forth in (a) and (b) below, to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition:
(a)
Collateralization Ratings Event. If a Collateralization Ratings Event occurs with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support provider), then BNY shall, at its own expense, within thirty (30) days of such Collateralization Ratings Event:
(w)
post collateral under agreements and other instruments approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and satisfactory to Xxxxx’x and S&P, which will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of the Certificates,
(x)
assign this Transaction to a third party, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, on terms substantially similar to this Confirmation, which party is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
(y)
obtain a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of, another person, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, to honor BNY’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that such other person is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, or
(z)
establish any other arrangement approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and satisfactory to Xxxxx’x and S&P which will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of their Certificates.
(b)
Ratings Event. If a Ratings Event occurs with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support provider), then BNY shall, at its own expense, within ten (10) Business Days of such Ratings Event:
(x)
assign this Transaction to a third party, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, on terms substantially similar to this Confirmation, which party is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
(y)
obtain a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of, another person, the ratings of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, to honor BNY’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that such other person is approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, or
(z)
establish any other arrangement approved by the Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and satisfactory to Xxxxx’x and S&P which will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of their Certificates.
10)
Compliance with Regulation AB.
(a)
It shall be a swap disclosure event (“Swap Disclosure Event”) if, at any time after the date hereof, the Securities Administrator (acting on behalf of the Depositor or the Sponsor) notifies BNY that the aggregate “significance percentage” (calculated in accordance with the provisions of Item 1115 of Regulation AB) of all derivative instruments provided by BNY and any of its affiliates to Counterparty (collectively, the “Aggregate Significance Percentage”) is 10% or more.
(b)
Upon the occurrence of a Swap Disclosure Event, BNY, at its own cost and expense (and without any expense or liability to the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Underwriters, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Issuing Entity), shall take one of the following actions: (i) provide to the Sponsor and the Depositor: (x) if the Aggregate Significance Percentage is 10% or more, but less than 20%, the information required under Item 1115(b)(1) of Regulation AB or (y) if the Aggregate Significance Percentage is 20% or more, within five (5) Business Days, the information required under Item 1115(b)(2) of Regulation AB; or (ii) assign its rights and delegate its obligations under the Transaction to a counterparty with the Approved Ratings Thresholds (or which satisfies the Rating Agency Condition), that (x) provides the information specified in clause (i) above to the Depositor and Sponsor and (y) enters into documentation substantially similar to the documentation then in place between BNY and the Counterparty.
(c)
For so long as the Aggregate Significance Percentage is 10% or more, BNY shall provide any updates to the information provided pursuant to clause (b) above to the Sponsor and the Depositor within five (5) Business Days following availability thereof (but in no event more than 45 days after the end of each of BNY’s fiscal quarter for any quarterly update, and in no even more than 90 days after the end of each of BNY’s fiscal year for any annual update).
(d)
All information provided pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) shall be in a form suitable for conversion to the format required for filing by the Depositor with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (XXXXX). In addition, any such information, if audited, shall be accompanied by any necessary auditor’s consents or, if such information is unaudited, shall be accompanied by an appropriate agreed-upon procedures letter from BNY’s accountants. If permitted by Regulation AB, any such information may be provided by reference to or incorporation by reference from reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.
11)
Additional Provisions. Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 5 and 6 of the ISDA Form Master Agreement, if the Counterparty has satisfied its payment obligations under Section 2(a)(i) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement, and shall, at the time, have no future payment or delivery obligation, whether absolute or contingent, then unless BNY is required pursuant to appropriate proceedings to return to the Counterparty or otherwise returns to the Counterparty upon demand of the Counterparty any portion of such payment, (a) the occurrence of an event described in Section 5(a) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement with respect to the Counterparty shall not constitute an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to the Counterparty as the Defaulting Party and (b) BNY shall be entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant to Section 6 of the ISDA Form Master Agreement only as a result of a Termination Event set forth in either Section 5(b)(i) or Section 5(b)(ii) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement with respect to BNY as the Affected Party or Section 5(b)(iii) of the ISDA Form Master Agreement with respect to BNY as the Burdened Party.
12)
BNY Payments to be made to Securities Administrator. BNY will, unless otherwise directed by the Securities Administrator, make all payments hereunder to the Securities Administrator. Payment made to the Securities Administrator at the account specified herein or to another account specified in writing by the Securities Administrator shall satisfy the payment obligations of BNY hereunder to the extent of such payment.
