Each Series 2000-1 Interest Rate Cap shall have a term of at least until the Payment Date falling in the nineteenth (19th) month after the Series 2000-1 Termination Date.

Each Series 2000-1 Interest Rate Cap must provide that if the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty is required to obtain a replacement as described in the preceding sentence and such replacement is not obtained within the period specified in the Series 2000-1 Interest Rate Cap, then the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty must, until such replacement is obtained or such Interest Rate Cap Counterparty again becomes a Qualified Interest Rate Cap Counterparty, collateralize its obligations under such Series 2000-1 Interest Rate Cap in an amount determined pursuant to the Credit Support Annex.
