Pursuant to the terms of the Policy, the Series Enhancer will make such payment on behalf of the Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder to the receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order (as defined in the Policy) and not to the ICI Indenture Trustee or any Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder directly (unless a Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder has previously paid such payment to the receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy, in which case the Series Enhancer will make such payment to the ICI Indenture Trustee for distribution to such Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder upon proof of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Series Enhancer).

The ICI Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Series Enhancer if a Responsible Officer receives written notice of any proceeding or the institution of any action seeking the avoidance as a preferential transfer under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law (a “Preference Claim”) of any distribution made with respect to the Series 2003-1 ICI Notes. Each Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder, by its purchase of Series 2003-1 ICI Notes, and the ICI Indenture Trustee hereby agree that the Series Enhancer (so long as no Series Enhancer Default exists or so long as the Policy has not expired and no amounts remain unpaid by the Series Enhancer pursuant to the Series 2003-1 Transaction Documents) may at any time during the continuation of any Proceeding relating to a Preference Amount direct all matters relating to such matter relating to a Preference Amount, including, without limitation, (i) the

direction of any appeal of any order relating to any Preference Amount and (ii) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal. In addition, and without limitation of the foregoing, the Series Enhancer shall be subrogated to the rights of the ICI Indenture Trustee and each such Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder, in the conduct of any such Preference Amount, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding action with respect to any order issued in connection with any such Preference Amount. Insured Payments paid by the Series Enhancer to the ICI Indenture Trustee shall be received by the ICI Indenture Trustee, as agent for the Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholders.

(j) By acceptance of a Series 2003-1 ICI Note, each Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholder agrees to be bound by the terms of the Policy, including, without limitation, the method and timing of payment and the Series Enhancer’s right of subrogation.

(k) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that payments on the Series 2003-1 ICI Notes are accelerated, such accelerated payments will not be covered by the Series Enhancer under the Policy, unless the Series Enhancer shall elect to make such accelerated payments in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Policy.

(l) The ICI Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to enforce on behalf of the Series 2003-1 ICI Noteholders the obligations of the Series Enhancer under the Policy, including, but not limited to, the enforcement of any proceeding against the Series Enhancer and making claims under the Policy.
