WHEREAS, (A) the Portfolio Manager and the Retention Holder has consented to the execution of this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby, (B) a Majority of the Interests has approved of this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby, (C) the form of this Indenture is reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and (D) the conditions to entering into this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby, each as set forth in the Original Indenture, have been satisfied;

WHEREAS, the Co-Issuers are duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture to provide for the Notes issuable as provided in this Indenture. Except as otherwise provided herein, all covenants and agreements made by the Co-Issuers herein are for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties;

WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Co-Issuers in accordance with the agreement’s terms have been done; and

Accordingly, the Issuer hereby directs the Trustee to execute this Indenture and acknowledges and agrees that the Trustee will be fully protected in relying upon the foregoing direction.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants set forth herein, the parties hereby agree as follows.

GRANTING CLAUSE

On the Closing Date the Issuer Granted, and hereby confirms such Grant, to the Trustee, for the benefit and security of the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator, the Administrator, the Portfolio Manager and each Hedge Counterparty (collectively, the “Secured Parties”), all of its right, title and interest in, to and under, in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising, in each case as defined in the UCC, accounts, chattel paper, commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, documents, financial assets, general intangibles, goods, instruments, investment property, letter-of-credit rights, and other property of any type or nature in which the Issuer has an interest, including all proceeds (as defined in the UCC) with respect to the foregoing (subject to the exclusions noted below, the “Assets”).

Such Grants include, but are not limited to the Issuer’s interest in and rights under: (a) the Collateral Obligations and Equity Securities and all payments thereon or with respect thereto, (b) each of the Accounts (subject, in the case of any Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account, to the extent permitted by the applicable Hedge Agreement), including any Eligible Investments purchased with funds on deposit therein, and all income from the investment of funds therein, (c) the Portfolio Management Agreement, the Collateral Administration Agreement, the Securities Account Control Agreement, the Retention Undertaking Letter, the Administration Agreement, the Registered Office Agreement and any Hedge Agreement, (d) cash and (e) all proceeds with respect to the foregoing; provided, that such Grants exclude: Margin Stock or the U.S. dollar amount of any liquidation thereof, whether or not such dollar amount has been reinvested in another instrument (the “Excepted Property”).

-8-

The above Grants are made in trust to secure the Notes and the Issuer’s obligations to the Secured Parties under this Indenture and each Hedge Agreement. Except as set forth in the Priority of Distributions and Article XIII of this Indenture, the Notes are secured equally and ratably without prejudice, priority or distinction between any Note and any other Note by reason of difference in time of issuance or otherwise, except as expressly provided in this Indenture, and to secure, in accordance with the priorities set forth in the Priority of Distributions, (i) the payment of all amounts due on the Notes in accordance with their terms, (ii) the payment of all other sums payable under any Transaction Document and each Hedge Agreement to any Secured Party and (iii) compliance with the provisions of this Indenture and each Hedge Agreement, all as provided in this Indenture and each Hedge Agreement, respectively. The foregoing Grants shall, for the purpose of determining the property subject to the lien of this Indenture, be deemed to include any securities and any investments granted to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Issuer, whether or not such securities or investments satisfy the criteria set forth in the definitions of “Collateral Obligation” or “Eligible Investments,” as the case may be.

The Trustee acknowledges such Grants, accepts the trusts hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof, and agrees to perform its duties expressly stated herein in accordance with the provisions hereof.

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS

Section 1.1. Definitions. Except as otherwise specified herein or as the context may otherwise require, terms defined in Annex A hereto shall have the respective meanings set forth in Annex A for all purposes of this Indenture, and the definitions of such terms are equally applicable both to the singular and plural forms of such terms and to the masculine, feminine and neuter genders of such terms. The word “including” shall mean “including without limitation.” All references in this Indenture to designated “Articles,” “Sections,” “Subsections” and other subdivisions are to the designated articles, sections, subsections and other subdivisions of this Indenture. The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Indenture as a whole and not to any particular article, section, subsection or other subdivision. On and after the Refinancing Date, unless the context expressly requires otherwise, in each of the Loan Sale Agreement and the Collateral Administration Agreement, all references to (i) “Debt” or “Notes” shall mean the “Notes” (as defined herein) and (ii) the “Indenture” shall mean this Indenture, dated as of the Refinancing Date.

Section 1.2. Assumptions as to Pledged Obligations. Unless otherwise specified, the assumptions described below shall be applied in connection with all calculations required to be made pursuant to this Indenture with respect to Scheduled Distributions on any Pledged Obligation, or any payments on any other assets included in the Assets, with respect to the sale of and reinvestment in Collateral Obligations, and with respect to the income that can be earned on Scheduled Distributions on such Pledged Obligations and on any other amounts that may be received for deposit in the Collection Account.

(a) All calculations with respect to Scheduled Distributions on the Pledged Obligations securing the Notes shall be made on the basis of information as to the terms of each such Pledged Obligation and upon report of payments, if any, received on such Pledged Obligation that are furnished by or on behalf of the issuer of such Pledged Obligation and, to the extent they are not manifestly in error, such information or report may be conclusively relied upon in making such calculations.

-9-

(b) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests and the Reinvestment Overcollateralization Test, except as otherwise specified in the Coverage Tests and the Reinvestment Overcollateralization Test, such calculations shall not include scheduled interest and principal payments on Defaulted Obligations unless or until such payments are actually made.

(c) For each Collection Period and as of any date of determination, the Scheduled Distribution on any Pledged Obligation (other than a Defaulted Obligation, which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have a Scheduled Distribution of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and collections to be received during such Collection Period in respect of such Pledged Obligation (including the proceeds of the sale of such Pledged Obligation received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to be received during the Collection Period and not reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations or Eligible Investments or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 12.2) that, if paid as scheduled, shall be available in the Collection Account at the end of the Collection Period and (ii) any such amounts received by the Issuer in prior Collection Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Distribution Date.

(d) Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to a Pledged Obligation shall be assumed to be received on the applicable Due Date, and each such Scheduled Distribution shall be assumed to be immediately deposited in the Collection Account to earn interest at the Assumed Reinvestment Rate. All such funds shall be assumed to continue to earn interest until the date on which they are required to be available in the Collection Account for application, in accordance with the terms hereof, to payments of principal of or interest on the Notes or other amounts payable pursuant to this Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, all amounts calculated pursuant to this Section 1.2(d) are estimates and may differ from the actual amounts available to make distributions hereunder, and no party shall have any obligation to make any payment hereunder due to the assumed amounts calculated under this Section 1.2(d) being greater than the actual amounts available. For purposes of the applicable determinations required by Section 10.7(b)(iv), Article XII and the definition of “Interest Coverage Ratio,” the expected interest on Notes and floating rate Collateral Obligations shall be calculated using the then current interest rates applicable thereto.

(e) After the Reinvestment Period, in determining any amount required to satisfy any Coverage Test, for purposes of the priorities set forth in Section 11.1(a)(i), the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes shall give effect, first, to the application of Principal Proceeds to be used on the applicable Distribution Date to repay principal of the Notes and, second, to the application of Interest Proceeds on such Distribution Date pursuant to all prior clauses in the priorities set forth in Section 11.1(a)(i).

(f) References in Section 11.1(a) to calculations made on a “pro forma basis” shall mean such calculations after giving effect to all payments, in accordance with the Priority of Distributions described herein, that precede (in priority of payment) or include the clause in which such calculation is made.

(g) Except as otherwise provided herein, Defaulted Obligations shall not be included in the calculation of the Collateral Quality Test.

-10-

(h) For purposes of calculating all Concentration Limitations, in both the numerator and the denominator of any component of the Concentration Limitations, Defaulted Obligations shall be treated as having a Principal Balance equal to zero.

(i) For purposes of any calculation hereunder, Eligible Investments representing Principal Proceeds shall be deemed to be Senior Secured Loans until reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations. Such calculations shall be based upon the principal amount of such Eligible Investments.

(j) For purposes of calculating the Sale Proceeds of a Collateral Obligation in sale transactions, Sale Proceeds shall include any Principal Financed Accrued Interest received in respect of such sale.

(k) For purposes of calculating clause (iii) of the definition of Concentration Limitations, without duplication, the amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (including Eligible Investments therein) representing Principal Proceeds shall each be deemed to be a floating rate Collateral Obligation that is a Senior Secured Loan.

(l) If withholding tax is imposed on (i) any amendment, waiver, consent or extension fees, (ii) commitment fees or other similar fees in respect of Revolving Collateral Obligations and Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligations or (iii) any other Collateral Obligation that becomes subject to withholding tax, the calculations of the Weighted Average Floating Spread, the Weighted Average Fixed Coupon and the Interest Coverage Test (and all component calculations of such calculations and tests, including when such a component calculation is calculated independently), as applicable, shall be made on a net basis after taking into account such withholding, unless the obligor is required to make “gross-up” payments to the Issuer that cover the full amount of any such withholding tax on an after-tax basis pursuant to the Underlying Instrument with respect thereto.

(m) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, all monetary calculations under this Indenture shall be in U.S. Dollars.

(n) Unless otherwise specified, any reference to the fee payable under Section 11.1 to an amount calculated with respect to the applicable period specified in the calculation thereof at a per annum rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months for such period. Any fees applicable to periods shorter than or longer than a calendar quarter shall be prorated to the actual number of days within such period.

(o) Unless otherwise specified, test calculations that evaluate to a percentage shall be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth and test calculations that evaluate to a number shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth.

(p) Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all calculations required to be made and all reports which are to be prepared pursuant to this Indenture shall be made on the basis of the trade date.

(q) Determination of the purchase price of a Collateral Obligation shall be made independently each time such Collateral Obligation is purchased by the Issuer and pledged to the Trustee, without giving effect to whether the Issuer has previously purchased such Collateral Obligation (or an obligation of the related borrower or issuer).

-11-

(r) For purposes of calculating the Collateral Quality Test, DIP Collateral Obligations will be treated as having a Fitch Recovery Rate equal to the Fitch Recovery Rate for Senior Secured Loans.

(s) All calculations related to Maturity Amendments, sales of Collateral Obligations, the Investment Criteria (and definitions related to sales of Collateral Obligations and the Investment Criteria), and other tests that would be calculated cumulatively will be reset at zero on the date of any Refinancing of all Classes of Notes.

(t) Any direction or Issuer order required under this Indenture relating to the purchase, acquisition, sale, disposition or other transfer of Assets may be in the form of a trade ticket, confirmation of trade, instruction to post or to commit to the trade or similar instrument or document or other written instruction (including by email or other electronic communication or file transfer protocol) from the Portfolio Manager or the Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer) to the Trustee.

(u) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the standard of care under the Portfolio Management Agreement and the legal, contractual and fiduciary duties owed by the Portfolio Manager, including the duty to act in the best interest of the Issuer, whenever in this Indenture or any other Transaction Document the Portfolio Manager is permitted or required to make a decision in its “sole discretion,” “reasonable discretion” or “discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the Portfolio Manager shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting any other Person. The intent of granting authority to act in its “discretion” to the Portfolio Manager is that no other party’s express consent is required to be obtained by the Portfolio Manager when acting pursuant to such grant of authority under this Indenture; provided that any action taken pursuant to such grant of discretion is consistent with the legal, contractual and fiduciary duties owed by the Portfolio Manager.

(c) Certificated Notes. Notes sold to persons that are AI/QPs and Notes sold to Purchasers that request a Certificated Note will be issued as Certificated Notes registered in the name of the beneficial owner or a nominee thereof, duly executed by the Co-Issuers and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided.

(d) Book Entry Provisions. This Section 2.2(d) shall apply only to Global Notes deposited with or on behalf of DTC.

Agent Members and owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Notes held by the Trustee, as custodian for DTC and DTC may be treated by the Co-Issuers, the Trustee, and any agent of the Co-Issuers or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Co-Issuers, the Trustee, or any agent of the Co-Issuers or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note.

Section 2.3. Authorized Amount; Stated Maturity; Denominations.

Section 2.7. Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Note. If (a) any mutilated or defaced Note is surrendered to a Transfer Agent, or if there shall be delivered to the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee and the relevant Transfer Agent evidence to their reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (b) there is delivered to the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee and such Transfer Agent, and any agent of the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee and such Transfer Agent, such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee or such Transfer Agent that such Note has been acquired by a Protected Purchaser, the Applicable Issuers shall execute and, upon Issuer Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal or face amount, registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication, bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If, after delivery of such new Note, a Protected Purchaser of the predecessor Note presents for payment, transfer or exchange such predecessor Note, the Applicable Issuers, the Transfer Agent and the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such new Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith.

In case any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become due and payable, the Applicable Issuers in their discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note pay such Note without requiring surrender thereof except that any mutilated or defaced Note shall be surrendered.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.7, the Applicable Issuers, the Trustee or the applicable Transfer Agent may require the payment by the Holder thereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 in lieu of any mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Applicable Issuers and such new Note shall be entitled, subject to the second paragraph of this Section 2.7, to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of the same Class duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 2.7 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

-29-

Section 2.8. Payment of Principal and Interest and Other Amounts; Principal and Interest Rights Preserved. (a) The Notes of each Class shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual Period at the applicable Interest Rate and such interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Distribution Date on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount thereof on the first day of the related Interest Accrual Period (after giving effect to payments of principal thereof on such date). Payment of interest on each Class of Notes (and payments of Interest Proceeds to the Issuer) shall be subordinated to the payments of interest on the related Priority Classes. So long as any Priority Classes are Outstanding with respect to any Class of Deferred Interest Notes, any payment of interest due on such Class of Deferred Interest Notes which is not available to be paid or if such interest is not paid in order to satisfy the Coverage Tests (“Deferred Interest” with respect thereto) in accordance with the Priority of Distributions on any Distribution Date shall not be considered “due and payable” for the purposes of Section 5.1(a) (and the failure to pay such interest shall not be an Event of Default) until the earliest of the Distribution Date (i) on which such interest is available to be paid in accordance with the Priority of Distributions, (ii) which is a Redemption Date with respect to such Class of Deferred Interest Notes, and (iii) which is the Stated Maturity of such Class of Deferred Interest Notes. Deferred Interest on any Class of Deferred Interest Notes shall be added to the principal balance of such Class of Deferred Interest Notes and payable on the first Distribution Date on which funds are available to be used for such purpose in accordance with the Priority of Distributions, but in any event no later than the earlier of the Distribution Date (i) which is the Redemption Date with respect to such Class of Deferred Interest Notes and (ii) which is the Stated Maturity of such Class of Deferred Interest Notes.

Interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes of a Class, or in the case of a partial repayment, on such part, from the date of repayment or the respective Stated Maturity unless payment of principal is improperly withheld or unless default is otherwise made with respect to such payments of principal. To the extent lawful and enforceable, (x) interest on Deferred Interest with respect to any Class of Deferred Interest Notes shall accrue at the Interest Rate for such Class until paid as provided herein and (y) interest on any Class A-1-R Notes or, if no Class A-1-R Notes are Outstanding, any Class A-2-R Notes or, if no Class A-2-R Notes are Outstanding, any Class B-R Note or, if no Class B-R Notes are Outstanding, any Class C-R Note that is not paid when due shall accrue at the Interest Rate for such Class until paid as provided herein.

(b) The principal of the Notes of each Class matures and is due and payable on the Distribution Date which is the Stated Maturity for such Class of Notes, unless such unpaid principal becomes due and payable at an earlier date by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the payment of principal of each Class of Notes (and payments of Principal Proceeds to the Issuer) may only occur (other than amounts constituting Deferred Interest thereon which shall be payable from Interest Proceeds pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i)) after principal and interest on each Class of Notes that constitutes a Priority Class with respect to such Class has been paid in full and is subordinated to the payment on each Distribution Date of the principal and interest due and payable on such Priority Class(es), and other amounts in accordance with the Priority of Distributions, and (ii) any payment of principal of any Class of Notes which is not paid, in accordance with the Priority of Distributions, on any Distribution Date (other than the Distribution Date which is the Stated Maturity of such Class or any Redemption Date), shall not be considered “due and payable” for purposes of Section 5.1(a) until the Distribution Date on which such principal may be paid in accordance with the Priority of Distributions or all of the Priority Classes with respect to such Class have been paid in full.

-30-

(d) The Paying Agent shall require the previous delivery of properly completed and signed applicable tax certifications (generally, in the case of U.S. federal income tax, an IRS Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) in the case of a U.S. Tax Person or the applicable IRS Form W-8 (or applicable successor form) in the case of a Person that is not a U.S. Tax Person) or other certification acceptable to it to enable the Issuer, the Trustee and any Paying Agent to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that they may be required to pay, deduct or withhold from payments in respect of such Notes or the Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes under any present or future law or regulation of the United States, any other jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements under any such law or regulation (including any cost basis reporting obligations) and the delivery of any information required under FATCA. The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Holders or beneficial owners of the Notes as a result of deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges with respect to the Notes. Nothing herein shall be construed to obligate the Paying Agent to determine the duties or liabilities of the Issuer or any other paying agent with respect to any tax certification or withholding requirements, or any tax certification or withholding requirements of any jurisdiction, political subdivision or taxing authority outside the United States.

(e) Payments in respect of interest on and principal of any Note and any payment with respect to any Interest shall be made by the Trustee or by a Paying Agent in United States dollars (i) to DTC or its designee with respect to a Global Note and (ii) to the Holder or its nominee with respect to a Certificated Note, by wire transfer, as directed by the Holder, in each case, in immediately available funds to a United States dollar account, as the case may be, maintained by DTC or its nominee with respect to a Global Note and to the Holder or its designee with respect to a Certificated Note; provided that, in the case of a Certificated Note, the Holder thereof shall have provided written wiring instructions to the Trustee or the applicable Paying Agent on or before the related Record Date; provided, further, that, if appropriate instructions for any such wire transfer are not received by the related Record Date, then such payment shall be made by check drawn on a U.S. bank mailed to the address of the Holder specified in the Register. Upon final payment due on the Stated Maturity of a Note, the Holder thereof shall present and surrender such Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee; provided, that, if the Trustee and the Applicable Issuers shall have been furnished such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless and an undertaking thereafter to surrender such certificate, then, in the absence of notice to the Applicable Issuers or the Trustee that the applicable Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, such final payment shall be made without presentation or surrender. None of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee, the Portfolio Manager nor any Paying Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspects of the records maintained by DTC, Euroclear, Clearstream or any of the Agent Members relating to or for payments made thereby on account of beneficial interests in a Global Note.

(f) Payments of principal to Holders of the Notes of each Class shall be made in the proportion that the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of such Class registered in the name of each such Holder on the applicable Record Date bears to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Notes of such Class on such Record Date.

-31-

(g) Interest accrued with respect to the Floating Rate Notes shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Accrual Period divided by 360. Interest accrued with respect to the Fixed Rate Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months; provided that, if a redemption occurs on a Business Day that would not otherwise be a Distribution Date, interest on such Fixed Rate Notes shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Accrual Period divided by 360.

(h) All reductions in the principal amount of a Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by payments of installments of principal made on any Distribution Date or Redemption Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of such Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the obligations of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer under the Notes and the Transaction Documents are at all times limited recourse or non-recourse obligations of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, payable solely from the proceeds of the Assets (excluding the Excepted Property) in accordance with the Priority of Distributions, and following realization of the Assets and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with this Indenture, all obligations of and any remaining claims against the Co-Issuers hereunder or in connection herewith after such realization shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had against any Officer, director, employee, shareholder or incorporator of the Trustee, the Placement Agent, the Collateral Administrator, either of the Co-Issuers, the Portfolio Manager, the Retention Holder, the Transferor or their respective successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Notes or this Indenture. It is understood that, except as expressly provided herein, the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (i) shall not (x) prevent recourse to the Assets for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Assets or (y) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture until such Assets have been realized. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (i) shall not limit the right of any Person to name the Issuer or the Co-Issuer as a party defendant in any Proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Person or entity.

(j) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.8, each Note delivered under this Indenture and upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights of unpaid interest and principal (or other applicable amount) that were carried by such other Note.

Section 2.9. Persons Deemed Owners. The Issuer, the Co-Issuer the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall treat as the owner of any Note the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Register on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest on such Note and on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever (whether or not such Note is overdue), and none of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, nor any agent of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

-32-

Section 2.10. Purchase and Surrender of Notes; Cancellation. (a) The Issuer may apply (x) any proceeds from the issuance of Junior Mezzanine Notes in accordance with Section 2.4, (y) Contributions accepted and received into the Contribution Account (at the direction of the related Contributor or, if no direction is given by the Contributor, by the Portfolio Manager in its reasonable discretion) and/or (z) to the extent directed by the Portfolio Manager, any portion of the Base Management Fee or the amounts distributable in respect of the Subordinated Interest waived by the Portfolio Manager in accordance with the Portfolio Management Agreement, in order to acquire Notes (or beneficial interests therein) of the Class designated by the Portfolio Manager or the Contributor, as applicable, through a tender offer, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions (in each case, subject to applicable law) (any such Notes, the “Repurchased Notes”); provided that, immediately prior to any such acquisition of such Notes by the Issuer, each Overcollateralization Ratio Test shall be satisfied and, immediately after giving effect to such purchase or prepayment, the Overcollateralization Ratio Test with respect to each Class of Notes that remains Outstanding shall be satisfied. Any such Repurchased Notes shall be submitted to the Trustee for cancellation. The Issuer shall provide notice of any Repurchased Notes to each Rating Agency then rating a Class of Notes.

The Issuer shall provide notice to the Co-Issuer, the Rating Agency and the Trustee of any Surrendered Notes tendered to it, and the Trustee shall provide notice to the Applicable Issuers of any Surrendered Note tendered to it. Any such Surrendered Notes shall be submitted to the Trustee for cancellation.

(b) All Repurchased Notes, Surrendered Notes and Notes that are surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption or are deemed lost or stolen, shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee and may not be reissued or resold; provided that Repurchased Notes and Surrendered Notes shall continue to be treated as Outstanding to the extent provided in clause (v) of the definition of “Outstanding.” Any such Notes shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Note canceled as provided in this Section 2.10, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Notes held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its standard policy, unless the Co-Issuers shall direct by an Issuer Order received prior to destruction that they be returned to it.

Section 2.11. Certificated Notes. (a) A Global Note deposited with DTC pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be transferred in the form of a Certificated Note to the beneficial owners thereof only if such transfer complies with Section 2.6 and either (i) DTC notifies the Co-Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for such Global Note or (ii) at any time DTC ceases to be a Clearing Agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Co-Issuers within 90 days after such notice. In addition, the owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall be entitled to receive a Certificated Note in exchange for such interest if such exchange complies with Section 2.6 and an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b) Any Global Note that is transferable in the form of a Certificated Note to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be surrendered by DTC to the Trustee’s designated office located in the United States to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Co-Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes (pursuant to the instructions of DTC) in Authorized Denominations. Any Certificated Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note shall be in registered form and, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.6(f), and Section 2.6(h), bear the legends set forth in the applicable Exhibit A and shall be subject to the transfer restrictions referred to in such legends.

-33-

(c) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 2.11, the Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

(d) In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in clause (a) of this Section 2.11, the Co-Issuers shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Certificated Notes in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons.

The Certificated Notes shall be in substantially the same form as the corresponding Global Notes with such changes therein as the Issuer and Trustee shall agree. Neither the Trustee nor the Registrar shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of directions from the depository and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such direction as to the names of the beneficial owners in whose names such Certificated Notes shall be registered or as to delivery instructions for such Certificated Notes.

Section 2.12. Notes Beneficially Owned by Persons Not QIB/QPs or AI/QPs or in Violation of ERISA Representations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of a beneficial interest in any (i) Rule 144A Global Note to a U.S. person that is not a QIB/QP, (ii) Certificated Note to a U.S. person that is not an AI/QP or a QIB/QP, or (iii) Note to a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder, and, in each case, that is not made pursuant to an applicable exemption under the Securities Act and the Investment Company Act shall be null and void and any such purported transfer of which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall have notice may be disregarded by the Issuer, Co-Issuer and the Trustee for all purposes.

(b) (i) Any U.S. person (as defined for purposes of Regulation S) that is a beneficial owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note, (ii) any U.S. person (as defined for purposes of Regulation S) that is not (A) a Qualified Institutional Buyer and a Qualified Purchaser or (B) in the case of Certificated Notes only, an AI who is a Qualified Purchaser, (iii) any Non-Permitted ERISA Holder or (iv) any Non-Permitted AML Holder, shall, in each case, be a “Non-Permitted Holder.” Promptly after discovery by the Issuer or the Trustee that any holder or beneficial owner of an interest in a Note is a Non-Permitted Holder (and notice to the Issuer by the Trustee if a Trust Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge or by the Co-Issuer if it makes the discovery), the Issuer shall send notice to such Non-Permitted Holder demanding that such Non-Permitted Holder transfer its interest in the Notes held by such person to a Person that is not a Non-Permitted Holder within 30 days (ten (10) days in the case of a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder) of the date of such notice. If such Non-Permitted Holder fails to so transfer such Notes, the Issuer shall have the right, without further notice to the Non-Permitted Holder, to sell such Notes or interest in such Notes to a purchaser selected by the Issuer that is a not a Non-Permitted Holder on such terms as the Issuer may choose. The Issuer, or the Portfolio Manager (on its own or acting through an investment bank selected by the Portfolio Manager at the Issuer’s expense) acting on behalf of the Issuer, may select the purchaser by soliciting one or more bids from one or more brokers or other market professionals that regularly deal in securities similar to the Notes, and selling such Notes to the highest such bidder. However, the Issuer may select a purchaser by any other means determined by it in its sole discretion. Each Holder of Notes, the Non-Permitted Holder and each other Person in the chain of title from the Holder to the Non-Permitted Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the Notes, agrees to cooperate with the Issuer, the Portfolio Manager and the Trustee to effect such transfers. The proceeds of such sale, net of any commissions, expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale shall be remitted to the Non-Permitted Holder. The terms and conditions of any sale under this subsection shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and the Issuer shall not be liable to any Person having an interest in the Notes sold as a result of any such sale or the exercise of such discretion.

-34-

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of a beneficial interest in any Notes to a Person who has made or is deemed to have made an ERISA-related representation required by Section 2.6 that is subsequently shown to be false or misleading shall be null and void and any such purported transfer of which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall have notice shall be disregarded by the Issuer, Co-Issuer and the Trustee for all purposes.

Section 2.13. Deduction or Withholding from Payments on Notes; No Gross Up. If the Issuer is required to deduct or withhold tax from, or with respect to, payments to any Holder of the Notes for any Tax, then the Trustee or other Paying Agent, as applicable, shall deduct, or withhold, the amount required to be deducted or withheld and remit to the relevant taxing authority such amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Issuer may withhold any amount that it determines is required to be withheld from any amounts otherwise distributable to any Holder of the Notes. The Issuer shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Holders or beneficial owners of the Notes as a result of any withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any Tax imposed on payments in respect of the Notes. The amount of any withholding tax or deduction with respect to any Holder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Holder at the time it is withheld or deducted by the Trustee or Paying Agent and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority.

Section 2.14. Holder AML Obligations. If (i) a Holder of a Note fails for any reason to comply with the Holder AML Obligations or provide accurate and complete information and documentation, or (ii) the Issuer otherwise reasonably determines that such Holder’s acquisition, holding or transfer of an interest in any Note would cause the Issuer to be unable to achieve AML Compliance, in each case, the Issuer (or any intermediary on the Issuer’s behalf) shall have the right to (x) compel the relevant Holder to sell its interest in such Note or (y) sell such interest on such Holder’s behalf. The Issuer shall not compel sales for failure to provide such other information or documentation as may be required under the Cayman AML Regulations unless the Issuer reasonably determines the Holder’s acquisition, holding or transfer of an interest in such Note would result in a materially adverse effect on the Issuer.

Upon obtaining knowledge (or a Trust Officer having actual knowledge, for the Trustee) of the occurrence of an Event of Default, each of (i) the Co-Issuers, (ii) the Trustee and (iii) the Portfolio Manager shall notify each other, and the Trustee shall provide the notices of Default required under Section 6.2.

Section 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(e) or (f) occurs, all unpaid principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, of all the Notes, and other amounts payable hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

-44-

(b) At any time after such a declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the Money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article V, a Majority of the Controlling Class by written notice to the Issuer, the Trustee and each Rating Agency may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(i) The Issuer or the Co-Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

(A) all unpaid installments of interest and principal then due and payable on the Notes (other than as a result of such acceleration);

(B) to the extent that the payment of such interest is lawful, current interest upon any Deferred Interest at the applicable Interest Rates; and

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Any Hedge Agreement in effect upon such declaration of an acceleration must remain in effect until liquidation of the Assets has begun and such declaration is no longer capable of being rescinded or annulled; provided that the Issuer shall nevertheless be entitled to designate an early termination date under and in accordance with the terms of such Hedge Agreement.

Section 5.3. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by the Trustee. The Co-Issuers covenant that if a default shall occur in respect of the payment of any principal of or interest when due and payable on any of the Notes, the Co-Issuers shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount, if any, then due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest with interest upon the overdue principal, at the applicable Interest Rate, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.

-45-

If the Issuer or the Co-Issuer fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may, and shall upon written direction of a Supermajority of the Controlling Class, institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Applicable Issuers or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the Monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the Assets.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, and shall upon written direction of the Supermajority of the Controlling Class, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Secured Parties by such appropriate Proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual (if no such direction is received by the Trustee) or as the Trustee may be directed by the Supermajority of the Controlling Class, to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

In case there shall be pending Proceedings relative to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes under the Bankruptcy Law or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or, in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or their respective property or such other obligor or its property, or in case of any other comparable Proceedings relative to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or the creditors or property of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or such other obligor, the Trustee, regardless of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and regardless of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes, as applicable, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Holders of the Notes or Holders allowed in any Proceedings relative to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or such other obligor upon the Notes or to the creditors or property of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or such other obligor;

(b) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of the Notes upon the direction of such Holders, in any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency Proceedings or person performing similar functions in comparable Proceedings; and

(c) to collect and receive any Monies or other property payable to or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Holders and of the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver or liquidator, custodian or other similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders of the Notes to make payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Holders of the Notes to pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holders of the Notes, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holders of the Notes in any such Proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar person.

In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Notes (and any such Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Assets or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.3 except according to the provisions specified in Section 5.5(a).

Section 5.4. Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Notes have been declared due and payable and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Co-Issuers agree that the Trustee may, and shall, upon written direction of a Supermajority of the Controlling Class, to the extent permitted by applicable law, exercise one or more of the following rights, privileges and remedies:

(i) institute Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or otherwise payable under this Indenture, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Assets any Monies adjudged due;

(ii) sell or cause the sale of all or a portion of the Assets or rights or interests therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law and in accordance with Sections 5.5 and 5.17;

(iii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Assets;

(iv) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes hereunder (including, without limitation, exercising all rights of the Trustee under the Securities Account Control Agreement); and

(v) exercise any other rights and remedies that may be available at law or in equity;

provided, however, that the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Assets or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.4 except according to the provisions specified in Section 5.5(a).

-47-

The Trustee may, but need not, obtain (at the expense of the Co-Issuers) and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm of national reputation, or other appropriate advisor concerning the matter, which may (but need not) be the Placement Agent, as to the feasibility of any action proposed to be taken in accordance with this Section 5.4 and as to the sufficiency of the proceeds and other amounts receivable with respect to the Assets to make the required payments of principal of and interest on the Notes, which opinion shall be conclusive evidence as to such feasibility or sufficiency and the cost of which shall be commercially reasonable.

(b) If an Event of Default as described in Section 5.1(d) hereof shall have occurred and be continuing the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of a Majority of the Controlling Class shall, institute a Proceeding solely to compel performance of the covenant or agreement or to cure the representation or warranty, the breach of which gave rise to the Event of Default under such Section, and enforce any equitable decree or order arising from such Proceeding.

(c) Upon any sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial Proceedings, any Secured Party or any Affiliate of the Issuer may bid for and purchase the Assets or any part thereof and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain, possess or dispose of such property in its or their own absolute right without accountability.

Upon any sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial Proceedings, the receipt of the Trustee, or of the Officer making a sale under judicial Proceedings, shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for its or their purchase Money, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obliged to see to the application thereof.

Any such sale, whether under any power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial Proceedings, shall bind the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, shall operate to divest all right, title and interest whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of each of them in and to the property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against each of them and their successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming through or under them.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, none of any Holder of the Notes, the Trustee nor any other Secured Party may, prior to the date which is one year (or if longer, any applicable preference period) and one day after the payment in full of all the Notes, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, any bankruptcy, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation Proceedings, or other Proceedings under Cayman Islands, U.S. federal or State bankruptcy or similar laws. Nothing in this Section 5.4 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Trustee (i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned period in (A) any case or Proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or (B) any involuntary insolvency Proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the Trustee (ii) from commencing against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or any of its respective properties any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation Proceeding.

-48-

(e) In the event one or more Holders or beneficial owners of Notes causes a Bankruptcy Filing against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer in violation of the prohibition described above, such Holder(s) or beneficial owner(s) (each, a “Filing Holder”) will be deemed to acknowledge and agree that (i) any claim that such Filing Holder(s) have against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, or with respect to any Assets (including any proceeds thereof) shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Priority of Distributions, be fully subordinate in right of payment to the claims of each Holder and beneficial owner of any Notes that is not a Filing Holder, with such subordination being effective until all amounts with respect to any Notes held by each Holder or beneficial owner of any Notes that is not a Filing Holder are paid in full in accordance with the Priority of Distributions (after giving effect to such subordination), (ii) such Filing Holder(s) will promptly return or cause all amounts received by it (them) following the filing of such petition to be returned to the Issuer and (iii) such Filing Holder(s) will take all necessary action to give effect to the Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement. The terms described in the immediately preceding sentence are referred to herein as the “Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement” and any Class of Notes of any Holder or beneficial owner who caused such subordination will be referred to as the “Bankruptcy Subordinated Class.” The Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement will constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended from time to time (or any successor statute)). The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon an Issuer Order with respect to the payment of any amounts payable to Holders, which amounts are subordinated pursuant to this Section 5.4(e).

(f) The Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as applicable, shall timely file an answer and any other appropriate pleading objecting to (i) the institution of any Proceeding to have the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent or (ii) the filing of any petition seeking relief, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, under the Bankruptcy Law or any other applicable law, subject to applicable funds available to pay the related expenses. The reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Issuer (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with taking any such action shall be paid as Administrative Expenses.

(g) Upon (i) the institution of any Proceeding to have the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent or (ii) the filing of any petition seeking relief, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, under the Bankruptcy Law or any other applicable law (in each case, whether voluntary or involuntary), the Trustee shall not withdraw funds from the Payment Account to pay or transfer any amounts set forth in any Distribution Report except in accordance with the instructions of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 5.5. Optional Preservation of Assets. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall retain the Assets securing the Notes intact (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required by Sections 7.16(l), 10.8 and 12.1), collect and cause the collection of the proceeds thereof and make and apply all payments and deposits and maintain all accounts in respect of the Assets and the Notes in accordance with the Priority of Distributions and the provisions of Article X, Article XII and Article XIII unless:

(i) the Trustee, pursuant to Section 5.5(c) and in consultation with the Portfolio Manager, determines that the anticipated proceeds of a sale or liquidation of all or any portion of the Assets (after deducting the reasonable expenses of such sale or liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in full the amounts then due (or, in the case of interest, accrued) and unpaid on the Notes for principal and interest (including Deferred Interest), and all Administrative Expenses and other amounts, fees and expenses payable or distributable pursuant to the Priority of Distributions prior to any distributions to the Issuer, and a Supermajority of the Controlling Class agrees with such determination;

-49-

(ii) either (x) in the case of an Event of Default under Section 5.1(a) (so long as any such Event of Default (A) was not the result of an administrative error or omission by the Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Registrar of the Notes, (B) did not occur as a result of the failure to pay any amount due on a Redemption Date or (C) was not as a result of the failure to pay interest on the Class A-2-R Notes while the Class A-1-R Notes constitute the Controlling Class) or Section 5.1(g) above, a Supermajority of the Class A-1-R Notes or (y) a Supermajority of each Class of Notes, in each case, voting separately, directs the sale and liquidation of all or any portion of the Assets; or

(iii) if the Notes have been paid in full, the Issuer may direct the sale and liquidation of all or any portion of the Assets.

The Trustee shall give written notice of the retention of the Assets to the Issuer (with a copy to the Co-Issuer), the Rating Agency and the Portfolio Manager. So long as such Event of Default is continuing, any such retention pursuant to this Section 5.5(a) may be rescinded at any time with notice to the Rating Agency when the conditions specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) exist.

In the event a liquidation of all or any portion of the Assets is commenced in accordance with this Section 5.5, all unpaid principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, of all the Notes, and other amounts payable under this Indenture, shall automatically become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Portfolio Manager or any Holder of Notes may submit a bid (on its own behalf or on behalf of one or more designees) to purchase Assets in connection with any liquidation of all or any portion of the Assets; provided that the Trustee is under no obligation to seek bids from the Portfolio Manager or any Holder of Notes or to sell Assets to the Portfolio Manager or any Holder of Notes submitting a bid.

(b) Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to sell the Assets securing the Notes if the conditions set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 5.5(a) are not satisfied. Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to preserve the Assets securing the Notes if prohibited by applicable law.

(c) In determining whether the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, at the written direction of a Supermajority of the Controlling Class, the Trustee shall request bid prices with respect to each security contained in the Assets from two nationally recognized dealers at the time making a market in such securities (as identified by the Portfolio Manager, if possible, to the Trustee in writing) and shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of the lower of such bid prices for each such security. In the event that the Trustee is only able to obtain bid prices with respect to each Asset from one nationally recognized dealer at the time making a market in such Assets, the Trustee shall compute the anticipated proceeds of the sale or liquidation on the basis of such one bid price for each such Asset. If the Trustee is unable to obtain any bids, the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) shall be deemed to not be satisfied. For the purposes of making the determinations required pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i), the Trustee shall apply the standards set forth in Section 6.3(c)(i) or (ii). In addition, for the purposes of determining issues relating to the execution of a sale or liquidation of all or any portion of the Assets and the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof in connection with a determination whether the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the Trustee may retain (at the Co-Issuers’ expense and for a commercially reasonable fee) and rely on an opinion of an Independent bank of national reputation or other appropriate advisor concerning the matter.

-50-

The Trustee shall deliver to the Holders and the Portfolio Manager a report stating the results of any determination required pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i) no later than ten (10) days after such determination is made. If a Supermajority of the Controlling Class has directed the Trustee to make a determination pursuant to Section 5.5(c), the Trustee shall make the determinations required by Section 5.5(a)(i) within thirty (30) days after an Event of Default (or such longer period as is necessary if the information required to make such determination has not yet been received) or at the request of a Supermajority of the Controlling Class at any time during which the Trustee retains the Assets pursuant to Section 5.5(a).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the sale of the Assets in connection with an exercise of remedies described in this Section 5.5, the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Issuer and each Rating Agency of its intent to sell the Assets in accordance with this Indenture. Prior to the consummation by the Trustee of any such sale of the Assets, the Trustee shall offer to sell the Assets to the Holders of the Interests constituting a Majority of the Interests on the same terms and conditions as are offered in the highest firm bid to purchase the Assets by any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager; provided that, without limitation of any other requirements applicable to any such sale as set forth herein, the purchase price paid for the Assets by the Holders of a Majority of the Interests in connection with an exercise of their rights described in this clause (d) shall not be less than all amounts then due (or in the case of interest, accrued) and unpaid on the Notes in respect of principal and interest (including accrued and unpaid Deferred Interest). To the extent a Majority of the Interests does not accept such offer within one (1) Business Day after delivery thereof by the Trustee, the Trustee may accept any such bid on the same terms and conditions for a period of ten (10) days. If the Trustee does not accept such bid within such ten (10) day period and intends to subsequently sell the Assets, the Trustee shall comply with the requirements of this paragraph in connection with any such subsequent proposed sale.

Section 5.6. Trustee May Enforce Claims without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or under any of the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceeding relating thereto, and any such action or Proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.7.

Section 5.7. Application of Money Collected. Any Money collected by the Trustee (after payment of costs of collection, liquidation and enforcement) with respect to the Notes pursuant to this Article V and any Money that may then be held or thereafter received by the Trustee with respect to the Notes hereunder shall be applied, subject to Section 13.1 and in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.1(a)(iii), at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee. Upon the final distribution of all proceeds of any liquidation effected hereunder, the provisions of Section 4.1 shall be deemed satisfied for the purposes of discharging this Indenture pursuant to Article IV.

-51-

Section 5.8. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Notes shall have any right to institute any Proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) such Holder has previously given to a Trust Officer of the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default;

(b) the Holder or Holders of a Majority of the Controlling Class shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder and such Holder or Holders have provided the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(c) the Trustee, for thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice, request and provision of such indemnity, has failed to institute any such Proceeding; and

(d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such thirty (30)-day period by a Supermajority of the Controlling Class;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes of the same Class or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of the Notes of the same Class or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders of Notes of the same Class subject to and in accordance with Section 13.1 and the Priority of Distributions.

In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of the Controlling Class, each representing less than a Supermajority of the Controlling Class, pursuant to this Section 5.8, the Trustee shall act in accordance with the request specified by the group of Holders with the greatest percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class. If the groups represent the same percentage, the Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken.

Section 5.9. Unconditional Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Principal and Interest. Subject to Sections 2.8(i), 2.13, 5.13, 6.15 and 13.1, but notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Notes shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Notes as such principal and interest becomes due and payable in accordance with the Priority of Distributions and Section 13.1, and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.8, to institute Proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment. Holders of Notes ranking junior to Classes of Notes still Outstanding shall have no right to institute proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment until such time as no Notes ranking senior to such Class of Notes remain Outstanding, which right shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.8, and shall not be impaired without the consent of any such Holder.

-52-

Section 5.10. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Holder shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holder shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.11. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.12. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein or of a subsequent Event of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of the Notes.

Section 5.13. Control by Supermajority of Controlling Class. A Supermajority of the Controlling Class shall have the right following the occurrence, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default to cause the institution of and direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, and to direct the exercise of any trust, right, remedy or power conferred upon the Trustee; provided that:

(a) such direction shall not conflict with any rule of law or with any express provision of this Indenture;

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; provided, that subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability (unless the Trustee has received the indemnity as set forth in clause (c) below);

(d) notwithstanding the foregoing, any direction to the Trustee to undertake a Sale of the Assets shall be by the Holders of Notes secured thereby representing the requisite percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Notes specified in Section 5.5.

-53-

Section 5.14. Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the time a judgment or decree for payment of the Money due has been obtained by the Trustee, as provided in this Article V, a Majority of the Controlling Class may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past Default and its consequences, except a Default:

(a) in the payment of the principal of any Note (which may be waived with the consent of each Holder of such Note);

(b) in the payment of interest on the Notes of the Controlling Class (which may be waived with the consent of the Holders of 100% of the Controlling Class);

(c) in respect of a provision hereof that under Section 8.2 cannot be modified or amended without the waiver or consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note adversely affected thereby (which may be waived with the consent of each such Holder); or

(d) in respect of a representation contained in Section 7.18 (which may be waived by a Majority of the Controlling Class if the Fitch Rating Condition is satisfied).

In the case of any such waiver, the Co-Issuers, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto. The Trustee shall promptly give written notice of any such waiver to any Rating Agency then rating any Class of Notes, the Portfolio Manager and each Holder.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 5.15. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee, Collateral Administrator or Portfolio Manager for any action taken, or omitted by it as Trustee, Collateral Administrator or Portfolio Manager, as applicable, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.15 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the applicable Stated Maturity (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date).

Section 5.16. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Co-Issuers covenant (to the extent they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any valuation, appraisement, redemption or marshalling law or rights, in each case wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants, the performance of or any remedies under this Indenture; and the Co-Issuers (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law or rights, and covenant that they shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted or rights created.

-54-

Section 5.17. Sale of Assets. (a) The power to effect any sale (a “Sale”) of all or any portion of the Assets pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 5.5 shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of such Assets remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Assets shall have been sold or all amounts secured by the Assets shall have been paid. The Trustee may upon notice provided as soon as reasonably practicable to the Holders, and shall, upon direction of the Holders of Notes representing the requisite percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Notes having the power to direct such Sale, from time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale pursuant to Section 5.5. The Trustee hereby expressly waives its rights to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale; provided that each of the Trustee and the Portfolio Manager shall be authorized to deduct the reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by it in connection with such Sale from the proceeds thereof notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7; provided, further, that this Section 5.17 shall be qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 5.5(d).

(b) Subject to Section 5.5(d), the Trustee may bid for and acquire any portion of the Assets in connection with a public Sale thereof, and may pay all or part of the purchase price by crediting against amounts owing on the Notes or other amounts secured by the Assets, all or part of the net proceeds of such Sale after deducting the reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with such Sale notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7. The Notes need not be produced in order to complete any such Sale, or in order for the net proceeds of such Sale to be credited against amounts owing on the Notes. The Trustee may hold, lease, operate, manage or otherwise deal with any property so acquired in any manner permitted by law in accordance with this Indenture.

(c) If any portion of the Assets consists of securities issued without registration under the Securities Act (“Unregistered Securities”), the Portfolio Manager may seek an Opinion of Counsel, or, if no such Opinion of Counsel can be obtained and with the written consent of a Majority of the Controlling Class, seek a no action position from the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other relevant federal or State regulatory authorities, regarding the legality of a public or private Sale of such Unregistered Securities.

(d) The Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Assets in connection with a Sale thereof, without recourse, representation or warranty. In addition, the Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney in fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any portion of the Assets in connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale. No purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s authority, to inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any Monies.

(e) Without limiting any right under Section 5.5(d), and notwithstanding any prior notice delivered thereunder, the Trustee shall provide notice as soon as reasonably practicable of any public Sale to the Holders of the Interests, and the Holders of the Interests and the Portfolio Manager shall be permitted to participate in any such public Sale to the extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent such Holders or the Portfolio Manager, as applicable, meet any applicable eligibility requirements with respect to such Sale.

-55-

Section 5.18. Action on the Notes. The Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Assets or upon any of the assets of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer.

ARTICLE VI

THE TRUSTEE

Section 6.1. Certain Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee. (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however, that in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they substantially conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly, but in any event within three (3) Business Days in the case of an Officer’s certificate furnished by the Portfolio Manager, notify the party delivering the same if such certificate or opinion does not conform. If a corrected form shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within fifteen days after such notice from the Trustee, the Trustee shall so notify the Holders.

(b) In case an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from a Majority (or Supermajority, as applicable) of the Controlling Class, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) this subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section 6.1;

-56-

(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it shall be proven that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Portfolio Manager in accordance with this Indenture and/or a Majority (or such other percentage as may be required by the terms hereof) of the Controlling Class (or other Class if required or permitted by the terms hereof), relating to the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture;

(iv) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it unless such risk or liability relates to the performance of its ordinary services, including mailing of notices under Article V, under this Indenture; and

(v) in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and regardless of the form of such action.

(d) For all purposes under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or any Event of Default described in Sections 5.1(c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) unless a Trust Officer assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default or Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Notes generally, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Assets or this Indenture.

-62-

(iii) to indemnify the Trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, fee, cost, liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on their part, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs and the attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by the Trustee to enforce any indemnification by, or other obligations of, the Issuer or the costs of defending or prosecuting any claim) against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder and under any other Transaction Document related hereto.

Section 6.8. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be an organization or entity organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$200,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, having a short-term issuer default rating of at least “F1” by Fitch or a long-term issuer default rating of at least “A” by Fitch and having an office within the United States; provided, that if the Trustee is downgraded below the minimum rating or capitalization requirement as set forth in this sentence, the Trustee (x) shall promptly notify the Co-Issuers and the Portfolio Manager of such downgrade in writing and (y) may retain its eligibility if it obtains or has obtained (at its own expense) or, to the extent the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager requests that the Trustee retain its eligibility (at the Issuer’s expense), prior to appointment of a successor trustee, (i) a confirmation from the applicable Rating Agency that downgraded the Trustee or counterparty risk assessment that such Rating Agency’s then-current rating of the Notes will not be downgraded or withdrawn by reason of such downgrade of the Trustee’s rating or (ii) a written waiver or other written acknowledgement (which may be evidenced by an exchange of electronic messages or facsimiles) from such Rating Agency that it will not review such Rating Agency’s then-current rating of the Notes in such circumstances. If such organization or entity publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.8, the combined capital and surplus of such organization or entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent published report of condition. The Trustee shall inform the Co-Issuers and the Portfolio Manager upon satisfaction of the foregoing requirements. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible and fails to obtain such confirmation, waiver or acknowledgement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.8, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI.

Section 6.9. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee under Section 6.10.

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Co-Issuers, the Portfolio Manager, the Holders of the Notes and each Rating Agency not less than sixty (60) days prior to such resignation. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Co-Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees satisfying the requirements of Section 6.8 by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer and an Authorized Officer of the Co-Issuer, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee so resigning and one copy to the successor Trustee or Trustees, together with a copy to each Holder and the Portfolio Manager; provided that the Issuer shall provide prior written notice to the Rating Agency of any such appointment; provided, further, that the Issuer shall not appoint such successor trustee or trustees without the consent of a Majority of each Class of Notes voting as a separate Class (or, at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Trustee has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.9(e), by an Act of a Majority of the most senior Class of Notes) unless (i) the Issuer gives ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Holders of such appointment and (ii) a Majority of each Class of Notes voting as a separate Class (or, at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Trustee has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.9(e), a Majority of the most senior Class of Notes) do not provide written notice to the Issuer objecting to such appointment (the failure of any such Majority to provide such notice to the Issuer within ten (10) days of receipt of notice of such appointment from the Issuer being conclusively deemed to constitute hereunder consent to such appointment and approval of such successor trustee or trustees). If no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or any Holder, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.8.

-64-

(c) The Trustee may, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ notice, be removed at any time by Act of a Majority of each Class of Notes voting separately or, at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing by an Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class, delivered to the Trustee and to the Co-Issuers.

(d)

If at any time:

(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.8 and (A) shall fail to give written notice to the Co-Issuers and the Portfolio Manager or (B) shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Co-Issuers or a Majority of the Controlling Class; or

(ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case (subject to Section 6.9(a)), (A) the Co-Issuers, by Issuer Order, may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 5.15, any Holder may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) If the Trustee shall be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any reason (other than resignation), the Co-Issuers, by Issuer Order, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the Co-Issuers shall fail to appoint a successor Trustee within sixty (60) days after such removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee may be appointed by a Majority of the Controlling Class by written instrument delivered to the Issuer and the retiring Trustee. The successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede any successor Trustee proposed by the Co-Issuers. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Co-Issuers or a Majority of the Controlling Class and shall have accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, subject to Section 5.15, the retiring Trustee may, or any Holder may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f) The Co-Issuers shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing written notice of such event to the Portfolio Manager, to the Holders of the Notes as their names and addresses appear in the Register, and to each Rating Agency. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Co-Issuers fail to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Co-Issuers.

-65-

(g) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee under this Section 6.9 shall be an effective resignation or removal of the Bank in all capacities under this Indenture, and as Collateral Administrator under the Collateral Administration Agreement.

Section 6.10. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Trustee. Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall meet the requirements of Section 6.8 and shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Co-Issuers and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Upon delivery of the required instruments, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Trustee; provided that, on request of the Co-Issuers or a Majority of any Class of Notes or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and Money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Co-Issuers shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

Section 6.11. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee. Any organization, banking association or entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any organization or entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any organization or entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such organization or entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any of the Notes have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

Section 6.12. Co-Trustees. At any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Assets may at the time be located, the Co-Issuers and the Trustee shall have power to appoint one or more Persons to act as co-collateral trustee that satisfies the eligibility requirement of Section 6.8 (subject to notice to the Rating Agency), jointly with the Trustee, of all or any part of the Assets, with the power to file such proofs of claim and take such other actions pursuant to Section 5.6 and to make such claims and enforce such rights of action on behalf of the Holders, as such Holders themselves may have the right to do, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.12 and to perform such other acts as may be determined by the Co-Issuers and the Trustee.

-66-

The Co-Issuers shall join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint a co-collateral trustee. If the Co-Issuers do not join in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by the Co-Issuers of a request to do so, the Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment. In no event shall any co-collateral trustee be deemed to be an agent or representative of the Trustee.

Should any written instrument from the Co-Issuers be required by any co-collateral trustee so appointed, more fully confirming to such co-collateral trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Co-Issuers. The Co-Issuers agree to pay (but only from and to the extent of the Assets), to the extent funds are available therefor under the Priority of Distributions, any reasonable fees and expenses in connection with such appointment.

Every co-collateral trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms:

(b) the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered by the appointment of a co-collateral trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such co-collateral trustee jointly as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-collateral trustee;

(c) the Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Co-Issuers evidenced by an Issuer Order, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-collateral trustee appointed under this Section 6.12, and in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-collateral trustee without the concurrence of the Co-Issuers. A successor to any co-collateral trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 6.12;

(d) no co-collateral trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee hereunder;

(e) the Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act or omission of a co-collateral trustee or for the appointment of a co-collateral trustee (in accordance with this Section 6.12); and

Section 6.13. Certain Duties of Trustee Related to Delayed Payment of Proceeds. In the event that in any month the Trustee shall not have received a payment with respect to any Pledged Obligation on its Due Date, (a) the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Portfolio Manager in writing or electronically (if an e-mail address is provided) and (b) unless within three Business Days (or the end of the applicable grace period for such payment, if longer) after such notice such payment shall have been received by the Trustee, or the Issuer, in its absolute discretion (but only to the extent permitted by Section 10.2(a)), shall have made provision for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with Section 10.2(a), the Trustee shall request the issuer of such Pledged Obligation, the trustee under the related Underlying Instrument or paying agent designated by either of them, as the case may be, to make such payment as soon as practicable after such request but in no event later than three Business Days after the date of such request. In the event that such payment is not made within such time period, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of clause (iv) of Section 6.1(c), shall take such reasonable action as the Portfolio Manager shall direct in writing. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. In the event that the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager requests a release of a Pledged Obligation and/or delivers an additional Collateral Obligation in connection with any such action under the Portfolio Management Agreement or under this Indenture, such release shall be subject to Section 10.8 and Article XII of this Indenture, as the case may be. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer or its designee any payment with respect to any Pledged Obligation or any additional Collateral Obligation received after the Due Date thereof to the extent the Issuer previously made provisions for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with this Section 6.13 and such payment shall not be deemed part of the Assets.

Section 6.14. Authenticating Agents. Upon the request of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee shall, and if the Trustee so chooses the Trustee may, appoint one or more Authenticating Agents with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 and 8.5, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by such Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 6.14 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes by the Trustee.

Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation.

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and the Co-Issuers. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Issuer, promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment to the Co-Issuers.

-68-

Unless the Authenticating Agent is also the same entity as the Trustee, the Issuer agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services, and reimbursement for its reasonable expenses relating thereto as an Administrative Expense under Section 11.1. The provisions of Sections 2.9, 6.4 and 6.5 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.

Section 6.15. Withholding. If any withholding or deduction is imposed on the Issuer’s payment (or allocations of income) under the Notes, such withholding or deduction shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the relevant Holder. The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to any Holder sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed or required to be deducted or withheld by the Issuer (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings) or may be withheld because of a failure by a Holder to provide any information required under FATCA or Sections 1441, 1445 and 1446 of the Code or any other provisions of any applicable law and to timely remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to any Notes shall be treated as Cash distributed to the relevant Holder at the time it is withheld by the Trustee. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 6.15. If any Holder or beneficial owner wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Trustee reasonably cooperate with such Person in providing readily available information so long as such Person agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Nothing herein shall impose an obligation on the part of the Trustee to determine the amount of any tax or withholding obligation on the part of the Issuer or in respect of the Notes.

Section 6.16. Representative for Holders of Notes Only; Agent for Each Other Secured Party. With respect to the security interest created hereunder, the delivery of any Asset to the Trustee is to the Trustee as representative of the Holders of the Notes and agent for each other Secured Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, the possession by the Trustee of any Asset, the endorsement to or registration in the name of the Trustee of any Asset (including without limitation as Entitlement Holder of the Custodial Account) are all undertaken by the Trustee in its capacity as representative of the Holders of the Notes and agent for each other Secured Party.

Section 6.17. Representations and Warranties of the Bank. The Bank (and any Person that becomes a successor Trustee pursuant to Sections 6.9, 6.10, or 6.11 or a co-collateral trustee pursuant to Section 6.12, or a successor Paying Agent, Registrar, Transfer Agent, Custodian, Calculation Agent or Securities Intermediary pursuant to Sections 2.6, 3.3, 7.2, or 7.15, as applicable) represents and warrants as follows in its individual capacity and in its capacities as described below:

Section 6.18. Communication with Rating Agency. Any written communication, including any confirmation, from a Rating Agency provided for or required to be obtained by the Trustee hereunder shall be sufficient in each case when such communication or confirmation is received by the Trustee, including by electronic message, facsimile, press release, posting to the applicable Rating Agency’s website or other means then considered industry standard.

Section 6.19. Removal of Assets from Accounts. The Trustee shall not, except in accordance with Article V and Sections 10.6 and 12.1, as applicable, permit the removal of any portion of the Assets or transfer any such Assets from the Account to which it is credited, or cause or permit any change in the Delivery made pursuant to Section 3.3 with respect to any Assets, if, after giving effect thereto, the jurisdiction governing the perfection of the Trustee’s security interest in such Assets is different from the jurisdiction governing the perfection at the time of delivery of the most recent Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 7.6 (or, if no Opinion of Counsel has yet been delivered pursuant to Section 7.6, the Opinion of Counsel delivered at the Refinancing Date pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii)) unless the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the lien and security interest created by this Indenture with respect to such property and the priority thereof shall continue to be maintained after giving effect to such action or actions.

The Issuer shall from time to time prepare or cause to be prepared, execute, deliver and file all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such Financing Statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable or desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes hereunder and to:

(xxx) to take any action necessary or advisable to implement the Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement; or (A) issue new certificates or divide a Bankruptcy Subordinated Class into one or more sub-classes of Notes, in each case, with new identifiers (including CUSIPs, ISINs and Common Codes, as applicable); provided that any certificate or sub-class of Notes of a Bankruptcy Subordinated Class issued pursuant to this clause will be issued on identical terms (other than with respect to payment rights being modified pursuant to the Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement) with the existing Notes of such Bankruptcy Subordinated Class and (B) provide for procedures under which beneficial owners of the Notes of such Bankruptcy Subordinated Class that are subject to the Bankruptcy Subordination Agreement will receive an interest in such new certificate or sub-class;

(xxxi) following the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, to make any changes determined by the Portfolio Manager in its reasonable judgment to be necessary or advisable to facilitate a change from the Reference Rate to an Alternative Rate, it being understood that no such supplemental indenture shall be required for purposes of adopting an Alternative Rate in accordance with the definition thereof;

(xxxii) subject to the approval of a Majority of the Interests, in connection with a Refinancing of all Classes of Notes in full, to (a) effect an extension of the end of the Reinvestment Period, (b) establish a non-call period for the replacement notes or loans or other financial arrangements issued or entered into in connection with such Refinancing, (c) modify the Weighted Average Life Test, (d) provide for a stated maturity of the replacement notes or loans or other financial arrangements issued or entered into in connection with such Refinancing that is later than the Stated Maturity of the Notes or (e) make any other amendments that would otherwise be subject to the consent rights of the Notes pursuant to this Article VIII;

-90-

(xxxiii) following the addition of the Cayman Islands to either of the EU/UK Restricted Lists, to make any amendments necessary to effect a change in the Issuer’s jurisdiction of incorporation (whether by merger, reincorporation, transfer of assets or otherwise); or

(xxxiv) to change the date within the month on which reports are required to be delivered hereunder.

Not later than ten (10) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days if in connection with an additional issuance, Refinancing or Re-Pricing) prior to the execution of any proposed supplemental indenture pursuant to clauses (i) to (xxxiii) above, the Trustee, at the expense of the Co-Issuers shall mail to the Holders of the Notes, the Portfolio Manager, the Collateral Administrator, any Hedge Counterparty and each Rating Agency (so long as any Notes are Outstanding and rated by such Rating Agency) a copy of such proposed supplemental indenture and shall request any required consent from the applicable Holders of Notes to be given within five (5) Business Days. Any consent given to a proposed supplemental indenture by the Holder of any Notes will be irrevocable and binding on all future Holders or beneficial owners of such Notes, irrespective of the execution date of the supplemental indenture. If the Holders of less than the required percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the relevant Notes consent to a proposed supplemental indenture within five (5) Business Days, on the first Business Day following such five (5) Business Day period, as applicable, the Trustee shall provide consents received to the Issuer and the Portfolio Manager so that they may determine which Holders of Notes have consented to the proposed supplemental indenture and which Holders of Notes (and, to the extent such information is available to the Trustee, which beneficial owners) have not consented to the proposed supplemental indenture.

Following delivery to the holders of the Notes of a copy of the proposed supplemental indenture by the Trustee, if any material changes are made to such supplemental indenture (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, changes of a technical nature or to correct typographical errors or to adjust formatting), as determined by the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager, then at the cost of the Co-Issuers, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the execution of such proposed supplemental indenture (provided, that the execution of such supplemental indenture shall not in any case occur earlier than ten (10) Business Days after the initial distribution of such proposed supplemental indenture), the Trustee shall deliver to the Portfolio Manager, the Collateral Administrator, each Hedge Counterparty, any Rating Agency then rating a Class of Notes and the Holders of Notes a copy of such supplemental indenture as revised, indicating the changes that were made. If prior to delivery by the Trustee of such supplemental indenture, as revised, any Holder has provided its written consent to the supplemental indenture as initially distributed, such Holder shall be deemed to have consented in writing to the supplemental indenture as revised unless such Holder has provided written notice of its withdrawal of such consent to the Trustee and the Issuer not later than one (1) Business Day prior to the execution of the supplemental indenture.

-91-

The Trustee shall join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

At the cost of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee shall provide to each Rating Agency (as long as any Notes rated by such Rating Agency remains Outstanding) a copy of each supplemental indenture proposed to be entered into pursuant to this Section 8.1(i)-(xxxiii).

At the cost of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee shall provide to the Holders and each Rating Agency a copy of the executed supplemental indenture after its execution. Any failure of the Trustee to publish or deliver such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture. The Trustee may conclusively rely on an Opinion of Counsel (which may be supported as to factual (including financial and capital markets) matters by any relevant certificates and other documents necessary or advisable in the judgment of counsel delivering the opinion) or an Officer’s certificate of the Portfolio Manager as to whether the interests of any Holder of Notes would be, or reasonably be expected to be, materially and adversely affected by the modifications set forth in supplemental indenture, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any determination as to the satisfaction of the requirements related to any supplemental indenture which may form the basis of such Opinion of Counsel; provided that, solely with respect to the Class A-1-R Notes, the Trustee shall not rely on any such Opinion of Counsel to the extent such Opinion of Counsel applies to the Class A-1-R Notes if any Holder of the Class A-1-R Notes has objected in writing to such supplemental indenture within 15 days of receipt of notice thereof. Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders. The Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee as described in Section 8.3 hereof.

For so long as any Notes are listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange, the Issuer shall notify the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange of any modification to this Indenture.

Without limitation of any provision described in this Section 8.1, an amendment, modification, supplement or restatement of this Indenture may be entered into in connection with a redemption, Partial Redemption by Refinancing or Re-Pricing in accordance with the provisions described in Article IX, in which case only the requirements of such provisions will apply and not the provisions described in this Section 8.1. The provisions of this paragraph are in addition to, and do not limit or condition in any way, the provisions for entering into a supplemental indenture by the Co-Issuers and the Trustee as set forth in Section 9.4(h) (which may be effected in compliance solely with the provisions set forth therein).

To the extent the Co-Issuers execute a supplemental indenture or other modification or amendment of the provisions hereof for purposes of conforming this Indenture to the Offering Circular or correcting an ambiguity therein pursuant to clauses (xi) or (xii) above and one or more other amendment provisions described above also applies, such supplemental indenture or other modification or amendment of this Indenture shall be deemed to be a supplemental indenture, modification or amendment to conform this Indenture to the Offering Circular or correct an ambiguity pursuant to clauses (xi) or (xii) above only regardless of the applicability of any other provision regarding supplemental indentures set forth herein.

-92-

A supplemental indenture entered into for any purpose other than the purposes provided for in this Section 8.1 shall require the consent of the Holders of Notes as required in Section 8.2.

Section 8.2. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders of Notes. (a) With the written consent of the Portfolio Manager, the Retention Holder and a Majority of each Class of Notes reasonably expected to be materially and adversely affected thereby, the Trustee and the Co-Issuers may enter into a supplemental indenture to add any provisions to, or change in any manner or eliminate any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modify in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes of such Class under this Indenture; provided that, no such supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) shall, without the consent of each Holder of Outstanding Notes of each Class and of each Interest reasonably expected to be materially and adversely affected thereby:

(i) except as provided in Sections 9.2, 9.3 and 9.8, change the Stated Maturity of the principal of or the due date of any installment of interest on any Note, reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon (other than in connection with a Re-Pricing or in connection with the adoption of an Alternative Rate) or the Redemption Price with respect to any Note, or change the earliest date on which the Notes of any Class may be redeemed, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of proceeds of any Assets to the payment of principal of or interest on any Note, application of proceeds of any distributions to the Issuer or change any place where, or the coin or currency in which, any Notes or the principal thereof or interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date);

(ii) decrease the percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Holders of Notes of each Class whose consent is required under this Indenture, including for the authorization of any such supplemental indenture, exercise of remedies under this Indenture or for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder or their consequences;

(iii) materially impair or materially adversely affect the Assets except as otherwise permitted in this Indenture;

(iv) except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Indenture, permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Assets or terminate such lien on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Notes of the security afforded by the lien of this Indenture; provided that this clause shall not apply to any supplemental indenture amending the restrictions on the sales of Collateral Obligations set forth in this Indenture which is otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 8.1 or this Section 8.2;

(v) modify any of the provisions of this Section 8.2, except to increase the percentage of Outstanding Notes or Interests the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such action or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of each Holder of Notes Outstanding and affected thereby;

-93-

(vi) modify the definitions of the terms “Outstanding,” “Class” (except changes that relate to a Re-Pricing or Optional Redemption), “Controlling Class,” “Majority” or “Supermajority”;

(vii) modify the definitions of the terms “Priority of Distributions” or “Note Payment Sequence”;

(viii) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to directly affect the manner or procedure for the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal on any Note, or for determining any amount available for distribution to the Issuer or to affect the rights of the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the redemption of such Notes contained herein; provided that this Indenture may be amended without regard to the consent requirements of this Section 8.2 to facilitate the adoption of an Alternative Rate;

(ix) amend any of the provisions of this Indenture relating to the institution of proceedings for certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, winding up or reorganization of the Co-Issuers;

(x) modify the restrictions on and procedures for resales and other transfers of Notes (except as set forth in Section 8.1(vi) or (vii));

(xi) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to impose any liability on a Holder of then Outstanding Notes or Interests to any third party (other than any liabilities set forth in this Indenture on the Refinancing Date); or

(xii) to modify any provision to facilitate an exchange of a Note for another Note that has substantially identical terms except transfer restrictions, including to effect any serial designation relating to the exchange.

(b) Not later than ten (10) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days if in connection with an additional issuance, Refinancing or Re-Pricing) prior to the execution of any proposed supplemental indenture described above, the Trustee, at the expense of the Co-Issuers, shall mail to the Holders, the Portfolio Manager, the Collateral Administrator, any Hedge Counterparty and each Rating Agency (so long as any Notes are Outstanding) a copy of such proposed supplemental indenture and shall request any required consent from the applicable Holders of Notes to be given within five (5) Business Days. Any consent given to a proposed supplemental indenture by the Holder of any Notes shall be irrevocable and binding on all future Holders or beneficial owners of such Notes, irrespective of the execution date of the supplemental indenture. If the Holders of less than the required percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the relevant Notes consent to a proposed supplemental indenture within five (5) Business Days, on the first Business Day following such five (5) Business Day period, the Trustee shall provide consents received to the Issuer and the Portfolio Manager so that they may determine which Holders of Notes have consented to the proposed supplemental indenture and which Holders (and, to the extent such information is available to the Trustee and the Trustee is not prohibited from sharing such information, which beneficial owners) have not consented to the proposed supplemental indenture.

-94-

(c) Unless the Trustee and the Issuer are notified within five (5) Business Days after notice by the Trustee to the Holders (other than the Holders of Class A-1-R Notes) of a proposed supplemental indenture by a Majority of any Class from whom consent is not being requested that the holders of such Class (other than the Class A-1-R Notes) giving such notice believe that they will be materially and adversely affected by the proposed supplemental indenture, the interests of such Class (other than the Class A-1-R Notes) will be deemed for all purposes to not be materially and adversely affected by such proposed supplemental indenture. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and solely for purposes of any supplemental indenture proposed pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2 (other than any supplemental indenture proposed pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) and/or Section 8.2(a)(viii)), except in the case of any Holder of Class A-1-R Notes, a Holder shall be deemed to have provided consent to any amendment or modification undertaken pursuant to such section if (i) such Holder affirmatively provides written consent or (ii) such Holder fails to deliver written objection (including via e-mail to the address provided in the notice of supplemental indenture) not later than five (5) Business Days following notice by the Trustee of such supplemental indenture.

(d) It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section 8.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act or consent shall approve the substance thereof, so long as the Holders have received a copy of the language to be included in any proposed supplemental indenture.

(e) The Issuer shall not enter into any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 8.2 if (in the reasonable judgment of the Issuer) any Hedge Counterparty would reasonably be expected to be materially and adversely affected by such supplemental indenture without the prior written consent of such Hedge Counterparty.

(f) Promptly after the execution by the Co-Issuers and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Trustee, at the expense of the Co-Issuers, shall deliver to the Holders, the Portfolio Manager and each Rating Agency then rating a Class of Notes a copy thereof. Any failure of the Trustee to deliver a copy of any supplemental indenture as provided herein, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

(g) With respect to any supplemental indenture that explicitly requires the consent of any Holders materially and adversely affected hereby, the Trustee may conclusively rely on an Opinion of Counsel (which may be supported as to factual (including financial and capital markets) matters by any relevant certificates and other documents necessary or advisable in the judgment of counsel delivering the opinion) or an Officer’s certificate of the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager, as applicable, as to whether the interests of any Holder of Notes (other than the Holders of the Class A-1-R Notes, to the extent any such Holder has objected in writing within 15 days of receipt of notice of any such supplemental indenture) would be, or reasonably be expected to be, materially and adversely affected by the modifications set forth in supplemental indenture, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any determination as to the satisfaction of the requirements related to any supplemental indenture which may form the basis of such Opinion of Counsel; provided that, solely with respect to the Class A-1-R Notes, the Trustee shall not rely on any such Opinion of Counsel, to the extent such Opinion of Counsel applies to the Class A-1-R Notes, if any Holder of Class A-1-R Notes has objected in writing to such supplemental indenture within 15 days of receipt of notice thereof. Except to the limited extent set forth in the preceding sentence, such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders. The Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee as described in Section 8.3 hereof.

-95-

(h) Any Class of Notes being refinanced shall be deemed not to be materially and adversely affected by any terms of the supplemental indenture related to and to become effective on or immediately after such refinancing. Any Non-Consenting Holders of a Re-Priced Class shall be deemed not to be materially and adversely affected by any terms of the supplemental indenture related to, in connection with and to become effective on or immediately after the Re-Pricing Date with respect to such Class.

Section 8.3. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article VIII or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.3) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel or an Officer’s certificate stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 8.4. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article VIII, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Notes theretofore and thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

Section 8.5. Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article VIII may, and if required by the Issuer shall, bear a notice in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Co-Issuers shall so determine, new Notes, so modified as to conform in the opinion of the Co-Issuers to any such supplemental indenture, may be prepared and executed by the Co-Issuers and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

Section 8.6. Re-Pricing Amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer and the Trustee may, without regard for the provisions of this Article VIII, enter into a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 9.8(d) solely to modify the spread over the Reference Rate (or, in the case of Fixed Rate Notes, the Interest Rate) applicable to the Re-Priced Class, and, to the extent applicable, to extend the Non-Call Period applicable to such Re-Priced Class or make changes to the definition of “Redemption Price” to reflect any agreed upon make-whole payments for the applicable Re-Priced Class (any such amendment, a “Re-Pricing Amendment”).

ARTICLE IX

REDEMPTION OF NOTES

Section 9.1. Mandatory Redemption. If a Coverage Test is not met on any Determination Date on which such Coverage Test is applicable, the Issuer shall apply available amounts in the Payment Account on the related Distribution Date to make payments as required pursuant to the Priority of Distributions to achieve compliance with such Coverage Test.

Section 9.2. Optional Redemption or Redemption Following a Tax Event. (a) The Notes shall be redeemed by the Co-Issuers, in whole but not in part, on any Business Day (x) at the written direction of the Issuer on or after the occurrence of a Tax Event from the proceeds of the liquidation of the Assets or (y) on or after the end of the Non-Call Period, at the written direction of the Issuer, with the consent of the Portfolio Manager and the Retention Holder, in any case from the proceeds of the liquidation of the Assets or from Refinancing Proceeds. A written direction described in clause (y) above shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Portfolio Manager no less than 10 Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date (unless the Trustee and the Portfolio Manager agree to a shorter notice period not to be less than 5 Business Days) from the proceeds of the liquidation of the Assets and/or from Refinancing Proceeds. In connection with any such redemption, the Notes shall be redeemed at the applicable Redemption Price.

In connection with any Optional Redemption of all of the Notes, the Portfolio Manager shall (unless the Redemption Price on all of the Notes shall be paid with Refinancing Proceeds) direct the sale of all or part of the Collateral Obligations and other Assets in an amount sufficient such that the Disposition Proceeds from such sale in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2(d) and all other funds available for such purpose in the Collection Account and the Payment Account (including any Refinancing Proceeds, if applicable) shall be at least sufficient to pay the Redemption Price on all of the Notes and to pay all Administrative Expenses (regardless of the Administrative Expense Cap) and other amounts, fees and expenses payable or distributable under the Priority of Distributions prior to any distributions to the Issuer (including, without limitation, any amounts due to the Hedge Counterparties or the Portfolio Manager and the reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses)). If such Disposition Proceeds, Refinancing Proceeds, if applicable, and all other funds available for such purpose in the Collection Account and the Payment Account would not be sufficient to redeem or prepay the Notes subject to redemption and to pay such fees and expenses, the Notes may not be redeemed, except in the case of an Optional Redemption following the occurrence of a Tax Event with the consent of a Supermajority of each Class of Notes, in which case, such proceeds and other available funds shall be applied in accordance with the Priority of Distributions without regard to the Administrative Expense Cap with respect to amounts payable (including indemnities) to the Trustee, the Bank in each of its other capacities under the Transaction Documents and the Collateral Administrator. The Portfolio Manager, in its sole discretion, may effect the sale of all or any part of the Collateral Obligations or other Assets through the direct sale of such Collateral Obligations or other Assets or by participation or other arrangement.

-97-

(b) In connection with any Optional Redemption of all of the Notes on or after the end of the Non-Call Period, at the written direction of the Issuer (with the consent of the Portfolio Manager and the Retention Holder), to the Co-Issuer (with a copy to the Trustee), the Issuer may, in addition to (or in lieu of) a sale of Collateral Obligations in the manner provided in Section 9.2(a), (i) enter into a loan or loans (ii) enter into a commitment with a CLO transaction or similar transaction to purchase Collateral Obligations in an amount at least equal to (together with all other available funds) the aggregate Redemption Prices of the Notes subject to such Optional Redemption or (iii) effect an issuance of replacement securities to redeem or prepay the Notes in whole from Refinancing Proceeds and Disposition Proceeds, the terms of which loan(s) or issuance shall be negotiated by the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer (and consented to by the Issuer), from one or more financial institutions or purchasers (a refinancing provided pursuant to such loan or issuance, a “Refinancing”) and the Refinancing Proceeds will be applied to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes on the Redemption Date in accordance with the Priority of Distributions; provided that (i) the agreements related to the Refinancing must contain limited recourse and non-petition provisions equivalent (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in Section 5.4(d), (ii) the terms of such Refinancing and any financial institutions acting as lenders thereunder or purchasers thereof must be acceptable to a the Issuer and the Portfolio Manager and (iii) such Refinancing otherwise satisfies the conditions described in Section 9.2(c).

The Holders of the Notes shall not have any cause of action against any of the Co-Issuers, the Portfolio Manager, the Retention Holder, the Collateral Administrator or the Trustee for any failure to obtain a Refinancing.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Issuer shall not sell any Collateral Obligations or obtain a Refinancing in connection with an Optional Redemption of the Notes in whole but not in part unless (i) the Refinancing Proceeds, all Disposition Proceeds from the sale of Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2(d) and all other available funds in the Accounts shall be at least sufficient to redeem simultaneously the Notes, in whole but not in part, and to pay the other amounts included in the aggregate Redemption Price and all accrued and unpaid Administrative Expenses (regardless of the Administrative Expense Cap), including the reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such Refinancing and (ii) the Disposition Proceeds, Refinancing Proceeds and other available funds are used to the extent necessary to make such redemption.

-98-

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Notes shall not be redeemed pursuant to an Optional Redemption unless (i) in the case of any Optional Redemption which is funded, in whole or in part, from Disposition Proceeds from the sale of the Collateral Obligations and other Assets, at least two (2) Business Days before the scheduled Redemption Date the Portfolio Manager shall have furnished to the Trustee evidence, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, that the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer has entered into a binding agreement or agreements with a financial or other institution or institutions or a collateralized loan obligation transaction or similar transaction or other special purpose vehicle to purchase (directly or by participation or other arrangement), not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled Redemption Date in immediately available funds, all or part of the Collateral Obligations and/or the Hedge Agreements at a purchase price at least equal to an amount sufficient, together with the Eligible Investments maturing, redeemable (or putable to the issuer thereof at par) on or prior to the scheduled Redemption Date, and any payments to be received in respect of the Hedge Agreements, any Refinancing Proceeds and all other available funds in the Accounts, to pay all Administrative Expenses and other amounts, fees and expenses payable or distributable in accordance with the Priority of Distributions prior to any distributions to the Issuer (including, without limitation, all accrued and unpaid Base Management Fee, Subordinated Interest and Cumulative Deferred Interest) and redeem all of the Notes being redeemed on the scheduled Redemption Date at the applicable Redemption Price, or (ii) prior to entering into any Refinancing or selling any Collateral Obligations and/or Eligible Investments, the Portfolio Manager shall certify to the Trustee in an Officer’s certificate upon which the Trustee can conclusively rely that, in its judgment, the aggregate sum of (A) any expected proceeds from Hedge Agreements and the sale of Eligible Investments, (B) any Refinancing Proceeds, (C) the amount, if any, of Interest Proceeds on deposit in the Interest Collection Account in excess of the aggregate amount of Interest Proceeds which would be paid by application of the Priority of Distributions on the related Redemption Date prior to distributions with respect to the Issuer and other amounts available to the Issuer (including, without limitation, Contributions) and (D) for each Collateral Obligation, the product of its Principal Balance and its Market Value, shall equal or exceed the sum of (x) the aggregate Redemption Prices of the Outstanding Notes and (y) all Administrative Expenses (regardless of the Administrative Expense Cap) and other amounts, fees and expenses payable or distributable under the Priority of Distributions prior to any distributions to the Issuer (including, without limitation, all accrued and unpaid Base Management Fee, Subordinated Interest and Cumulative Deferred Interest). Any certification delivered by the Portfolio Manager pursuant to this Section 9.2(d) shall include (1) the prices of, and expected proceeds from, the sale (directly or by participation or other arrangement) of any Collateral Obligations, Eligible Investments and/or Hedge Agreements and (2) all calculations required by this Section 9.2(d).

Section 9.3. Partial Redemption by Refinancing.

Upon written direction of the Issuer delivered to the Trustee, the Co-Issuer and the Portfolio Manager (as applicable) not less than 10 Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date (unless a shorter time period is acceptable to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Portfolio Manager), the Co-Issuers shall redeem one or more Classes of Notes following the end of the Non-Call Period, in whole but not in part with respect to each such Class to be redeemed, from Refinancing Proceeds and other amounts permitted (any such redemption, a “Partial Redemption by Refinancing”); provided that, to the extent the any Risk Retention Regulations apply to this transaction or with respect to Refinancings, the Portfolio Manager and the Retention Holder have each consented to any Partial Redemption by Refinancing; provided, further, that the terms of such Refinancing and any financial institutions acting as lenders thereunder or purchasers thereof must be acceptable to the Issuer and to the Portfolio Manager and such Refinancing otherwise satisfies the conditions described below.

-99-

The Issuer shall obtain a Refinancing in connection with a Partial Redemption by Refinancing only if:

(i) (A) the weighted average interest rate (weighted based on principal amount) of the refinancing obligations does not exceed the weighted average interest rate of the corresponding Class of the Notes being refinanced and (B) the principal amount of the refinancing obligations is equal to the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Classes of Notes being refinanced except that (x) in connection with a Refinancing of the Controlling Class of Notes, the principal amount of the obligations providing the Refinancing of such Class of Notes may be lower than the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of such Class of Notes and (y) the principal amount of the refinancing obligations may be greater than the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class of Notes being redeemed so long as (I) the Fitch Rating Condition is satisfied and (II) after giving effect to such proposed Refinancing, the Overcollateralization Ratio Test with respect to each Class of Notes is either satisfied or, if not satisfied, maintained or improved (disregarding from the principal amount of the refinancing obligations, for purposes of the comparison in this clause (II), an amount, as determined by the Portfolio Manager, up to U.S.$1,000,000 representing the reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses expected to be incurred in connection with the Refinancing of such Class); (ii) on such Redemption Date, the sum of (A) the Refinancing Proceeds and (B) (x) the Partial Redemption Interest Proceeds and (y) amounts paid or provided for in another manner (including, without limitation, with Contributions) or with respect to Administrative Expenses only (without regard to any cap), amounts reasonably expected by the Portfolio Manager to be available on the next two Distribution Dates to pay such amounts, shall be in an amount not less than the amount required to pay the Redemption Price with respect to the Class(es) of Notes to be redeemed and all accrued and unpaid Administrative Expenses (regardless of the Administrative Expense Cap) incurred in connection with such Refinancing, including the reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such Refinancing notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7; (iii) the Refinancing Proceeds, the Partial Redemption Interest Proceeds and any Contributions described in clause (ii)(B) above are used to make such redemption and pay such expenses; (iv) the agreements relating to the Refinancing contain limited recourse and non-petition provisions equivalent (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in Section 5.4(d); (v) the Issuer provides notice to each Rating Agency with respect to such Partial Redemption by Refinancing; (vi) any new notes or other obligations created pursuant to the Partial Redemption by Refinancing must have the same or longer maturity as the Notes Outstanding having the earliest Stated Maturity prior to such Refinancing; (vii) such Refinancing is done only through the issuance of new securities or loans and not the sale of any Assets; (viii) each new class of obligations providing the Refinancing is subject to the Priority of Distributions and does not rank higher in priority pursuant to the Priority of Distributions than the applicable Class of Notes being refinanced; provided, that two or more Classes of Notes with the same initial ratings but different priorities pursuant to the Priority of Distributions may be refinanced with a single class of Refinancing obligations; (ix) such Refinancing otherwise satisfies the conditions described in Section 9.4; and (x) the Issuer shall have obtained Tax Advice to the effected that such Refinancing will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis (including any withholding tax liability under Section 1446 of the Code); provided that, (A) any Class of Notes that bears a fixed rate of interest may be refinanced with obligations that bear interest at a floating rate (i.e., at a stated spread over the Reference Rate) so long as the Reference Rate plus the relevant spread with respect to such obligations comprising the Refinancing of such Class is less than the applicable Interest Rate with respect to such Class of Notes that bears a fixed rate on the date of such Refinancing and (B) any Class of Notes that bears a floating rate may be refinanced with obligations that bear interest at a fixed rate so long as the fixed rate of the obligations comprising the Refinancing of such Class is less than the Reference Rate plus the relevant spread with respect to such Class of Notes on the date of such Refinancing.

It is understood that the foregoing will not prevent a Refinancing of any Notes with any floating rate obligations or fixed rate obligations, in each case, so long as the criteria in the immediately preceding paragraph are satisfied.

Refinancing Proceeds received in connection with a Partial Redemption by Refinancing will not constitute Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds but will be applied directly on the related Redemption Date pursuant to this Indenture to redeem or prepay the Notes being refinanced without regard to the Priority of Distributions; provided that to the extent that any Refinancing Proceeds are not applied to redeem or prepay the Notes being refinanced or to pay expenses in connection with the Refinancing, such Refinancing Proceeds will be treated as Principal Proceeds.

Section 9.4. Redemption Procedures. (a) In the event of an Optional Redemption or a Partial Redemption by Refinancing, the written direction of the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager, as applicable, required as set forth herein shall be provided to the Co-Issuer, the Trustee and, if applicable, the Portfolio Manager not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Business Day (or such shorter time period agreed to by the Issuer, the Trustee and the Portfolio Manager, not to be less than 5 Business Days) on which such redemption is to be made (which date shall be designated in such notice) and a notice of redemption shall be given by the Trustee not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Redemption Date, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at such Holder’s address in the Register, and to each Rating Agency. In addition, for so long as any Notes are listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange and so long as the guidelines of such exchange so require, notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3 shall also be given to the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange.

(b) All notices of redemption delivered pursuant to Section 9.4(a) shall state:

(i) the applicable Redemption Date;

(ii) the Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed;

(iii) in the case of an Optional Redemption, that all of the Notes are to be redeemed in full and that interest on such Notes shall cease to accrue on the Redemption Date specified in the notice;

(iv) in the case of a Partial Redemption by Refinancing, the Classes of Notes to be redeemed in full and that interest on such Notes shall cease to accrue on the Redemption Date specified in the notice; and

(v) the place or places where Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, which shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

(c) Any notice of redemption may be withdrawn (thereby canceling the redemption) by (x) the Portfolio Manager or (y) the Issuer, with the consent of the Portfolio Manager (to the extent applicable), in each case, for any reason by delivery of a written notice to the Trustee and the Co-Issuers no later than one (1) Business Day before the proposed Redemption Date. Once withdrawn, a subsequent notice of redemption may be given in accordance with this Section 9.4. At the cost of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee shall provide a copy of such written notice to the Rating Agency.

-101-

(d) If any notice of redemption is so withdrawn or if the Co-Issuers (or the Portfolio Manager, on behalf of the Co-Issuers) are otherwise unable to complete any redemption of the Notes, the Sale Proceeds (if any) received from the sale of any Collateral Obligations and other Assets sold pursuant to Section 9.2 may, during or after the Reinvestment Period at the Portfolio Manager’s sole discretion, be reinvested in accordance with the Investment Criteria; provided that reinvestment of such Sale Proceeds after the Reinvestment Period shall only be permitted if such notice of redemption was withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture.

(e) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Co-Issuers (or the Portfolio Manager on their behalf) or, upon an Issuer Order, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Co-Issuers. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Notes selected for redemption shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Notes.

(f) In connection with a Refinancing of all Classes of Notes in full, with the approval of the Issuer and the Portfolio Manager, the agreements relating to the refinancing may, without limitation, (i) effect an extension of the end of the Reinvestment Period, (ii) establish a non-call period for the replacement obligations or other financial arrangements issued or entered into in connection with such Refinancing, (iii) modify the Weighted Average Life Test, (iv) provide for a stated maturity of the replacement notes or loans or other financial arrangements issued or entered into in connection with such Refinancing that is later than the Stated Maturity of the Notes or (v) make any other amendments that would otherwise be subject to the consent rights of the Notes.

(g) In connection with a Refinancing of all Classes of Notes, after payment of the Redemption Prices of all such Classes of Notes on the related Redemption Date (and any applicable costs and expenses in connection therewith, as set forth in Section 9.2), the Issuer and the Portfolio Manager may agree (without the consent of any Person, including any Holder) to designate Principal Proceeds in an amount up to the Excess Par Amount as Interest Proceeds (such designated amount, the “Designated Excess Par”), and direct the Trustee to apply such Designated Excess Par on such Redemption Date as Interest Proceeds in accordance with the Priority of Distributions.

(h) If a Refinancing or Partial Redemption by Refinancing is obtained meeting the requirements specified in Section 9.2 (in the case of an Optional Redemption) and Section 9.3 (in the case of a Partial Redemption by Refinancing) as certified by the Portfolio Manager, the Co-Issuers and the Trustee shall amend this Indenture (which amendment shall be prepared by or on behalf of the Issuer) to the extent necessary to reflect the terms of the Refinancing or Partial Redemption by Refinancing, as applicable, and no further consent for or notices of such amendments shall be required from or to the Holders of Notes. Notwithstanding any other requirement or obligation relating to any supplement or amendment to this Indenture pursuant to Article VIII, the Co-Issuers and the Trustee may, from time to time, enter into an amendment or indenture supplemental hereto (A) in connection with a Partial Redemption by Refinancing, so long as the only modifications to this Indenture are (i) to reduce the interest rate on such Class(es) of Notes being refinanced and (ii) to reflect the terms of such Refinancing, including any necessary changes to the definition of “Non-Call Period” or “Redemption Price”, to limit or prohibit future Re-Pricings or Refinancings or to reflect any agreed upon make-whole payments, in each case, of the Class(es) of Notes subject to such Partial Redemption by Refinancing and (B) in connection with an Optional Redemption of the Notes in whole, and, in the case of a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to (A) or (B) of this sentence, (x) no notice to, or consent from, any Holder or beneficial owner of Securities or any Rating Agency, will be required for the entry into such supplemental or amended indenture and (y) no Opinion of Counsel or certificate will be required for the entry into such supplemental or amended indenture other than as required in this Section 9.4(h). The Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment that, in its view, adversely affects its duties, obligations, liabilities or protections hereunder, and the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel as to matters of law (which may be supported as to factual (including financial and capital markets) matters by any relevant certificates and other documents necessary or advisable in the judgment of counsel delivering such Opinion of Counsel) to the effect that such amendment is authorized and permitted under this Indenture (except that such counsel shall have no obligation to certify or opine as to the sufficiency of the Refinancing Proceeds or the application thereof).

Section 9.5. Notes Payable on Redemption Date. (a) Notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.4 having been given as aforesaid, the Notes to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 9.2(d) in the case of an Optional Redemption and the right of the Co-Issuers to withdraw any notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.4(c) and (d), become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) all such Notes shall cease to bear interest on the Redemption Date. Upon final payment on a Note to be so redeemed, each Holder shall present and surrender its Note at the place specified in the notice of redemption on or prior to such Redemption Date; provided that if there is delivered to the Co-Issuers and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by any of them to save such party harmless and an undertaking thereafter to surrender such Note, then, in the absence of notice to the Co-Issuers or the Trustee that the applicable Note has been acquired by a Protected Purchaser, such final payment shall be made without presentation or surrender. Payments of interest on Notes to be so redeemed whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Date according to the terms and provisions of Section 2.8(e).

(b) If any Notes called for redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the applicable Interest Rate for each successive Interest Accrual Period that such Notes remain Outstanding; provided that the reason for such non-payment is not the fault of such Holder.

Section 9.6. Clean-Up Call Redemption.

(a) The Notes are redeemable at the option of the Co-Issuers acting at the direction of the Portfolio Manager (which direction shall (x) be given so as to be received by the Co-Issuers and the Trustee not later than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed Clean-Up Call Redemption Date and (y) include the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date), in whole but not in part (a “Clean-Up Call Redemption”), at the applicable Redemption Price, on any Business Day after the Non-Call Period selected by the Portfolio Manager (such Business Day, the “Clean-Up Call Redemption Date”) which occurs on or after the Business Day on which the Collateral Principal Amount is less than or equal to 20.0% of the Refinancing Date Par Amount. In such event a notice of redemption shall be given not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the applicable Clean-Up Call Redemption Date, to the Trustee, each Holder of Notes, at such Holder’s address in the Register, and to the Rating Agency. Any such Clean-Up Call Redemption may be effected only from (a) the disposition proceeds of the Assets and (b) all other funds in the Accounts on the Business Day relating to such redemption. A Clean-Up Call Redemption may not occur unless the proceeds from the liquidation of the Assets and all other funds in the Accounts on the Business Day relating to such redemption results in an amount at least equal to the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price.

-103-

(b)

All notices of redemption delivered pursuant to Section 9.6(a) shall state:

(i) the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date;

(ii) the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price of each Class of Notes to be redeemed; and

(iii) that all of the Notes are to be redeemed in full and that interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption shall be given by the Co-Issuers (or the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Co-Issuers) or, upon an Issuer Order, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Co-Issuers. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Notes. For so long as any Notes are listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange and the guidelines of such exchange so require, the Issuer shall provide notice of such Clean-Up Call Redemption to the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange.

(c) Any Clean-Up Call Redemption is subject to (i) the purchase of the Assets by any Person(s) from the Issuer, on or prior to the second Business Day immediately preceding the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date, for a purchase price in Cash at least equal to the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price (less the amount of funds in the Accounts that are available to pay the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price) and (ii) the receipt by the Trustee from the Portfolio Manager, prior to such purchase, of a certification from the Portfolio Manager that the sum so received satisfies the requirements of clause (i). Upon receipt by the Trustee of the certification referred to in the preceding sentence, the Trustee (pursuant to written direction from the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer) and the Portfolio Manager, acting on behalf of the Issuer, shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to sell, assign and transfer the Assets to such Person(s) (which may be the Portfolio Manager or any of its Affiliates) upon payment in immediately available funds of the purchase price for such Assets, which shall be no less than the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price (less the amount of funds in the Accounts available to be applied to pay the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price). The Issuer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, the funds required for a Clean-Up Call Redemption in the Payment Account on or prior to the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date. The Trustee shall deposit such payment into the Collection Account.

(d) Any notice of Clean-Up Call Redemption may be withdrawn by the Co-Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Co-Issuers) up to the Business Day prior to the scheduled Clean-Up Call Redemption Date by written notice to the Trustee, the Rating Agency and (if applicable) the Portfolio Manager only if amounts equal to the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price (including funds in the Accounts available to pay the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price) are not received in full in immediately available funds by the second Business Day immediately preceding the proposed Clean-Up Call Redemption Date. Notice of any such withdrawal of a notice of Clean-Up Call Redemption shall be given by the Trustee at the expense of the Co-Issuers to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s address in the Register, by overnight courier guaranteeing next day delivery not later than the Business Day prior to the scheduled Clean-Up Call Redemption Date. In addition, so long as any Notes are listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange and the guidelines of such exchange so require, the Issuer shall also provide notice of such withdrawal to the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange.

-104-

(e) On the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date, the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price shall be distributed pursuant to the Priority of Distributions.

(f) Notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 9.6 having been given as aforesaid, the Notes to be redeemed shall, on the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date, subject to Section 9.6(c) and the Co-Issuers’ right to withdraw any notice of redemption pursuant to Section 9.6(d), become due and payable at the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date (unless the Co-Issuers shall default in the payment of the Clean-Up Call Redemption Price and accrued interest) all the Notes shall cease to bear interest on the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date. Upon final payment on Notes to be so redeemed, the Holder shall present and surrender any note evidencing such Notes at the place specified in the notice of redemption on or prior to such Clean-Up Call Redemption Date; provided that, if there is delivered to the Co-Issuers and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by any of them to save such party harmless and an undertaking thereafter to surrender such Note, then, in the absence of notice to the Co-Issuers or the Trustee that the applicable Note has been acquired by a Protected Purchaser, such final payment shall be made without presentation or surrender.

If any Notes called for redemption pursuant to this Section 9.6 shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Clean-Up Call Redemption Date at the applicable Interest Rate for each successive Interest Accrual Period that such Notes remain Outstanding; provided that the reason for such non-payment is not the fault of the Holder of such Notes.

Section 9.7. Special Redemption. Principal payments on the Notes shall be made in part in accordance with the Priority of Distributions on any Business Day (A) during the Reinvestment Period, if the Portfolio Manager at its sole discretion notifies the Trustee that it has been unable, for a period of at least twenty (20) consecutive Business Days, to identify additional Collateral Obligations that are deemed appropriate by the Portfolio Manager in its sole discretion and would meet the Investment Criteria in sufficient amounts to permit the investment or reinvestment of all or a portion of the funds then in the Collection Account that are to be invested in additional Collateral Obligations or (B) if a Retention Deficiency exists, to the extent necessary to reduce such Retention Deficiency to zero (in each case, a “Special Redemption”). On the first Distribution Date following the Collection Period in which such notice is given (a “Special Redemption Date”), the amount in the Collection Account representing (1) Principal Proceeds which the Portfolio Manager has determined cannot be reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations or (2) Principal Proceeds necessary to reduce any outstanding Retention Deficiency to zero (such amount, the “Special Redemption Amount”), as the case may be, shall be applied in accordance with the Priority of Distributions under Section 11.1(a)(ii). Notice of payments pursuant to this Section 9.7 shall be given by the Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any case not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Special Redemption Date (provided, that such notice shall not be required in connection with a Special Redemption pursuant to clause (B) of the definition of such term if the Special Redemption Amount is not known on or prior to such date) to each Holder of Notes affected thereby at such Holder’s address in the Register) and to the Rating Agency. In addition, for so long as any Notes are listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange and so long as the guidelines of such exchange so require, notice of Special Redemption to the Holders of such Notes shall also be given by the Issuer to the listing agent or listing advisor in the Cayman Islands in the name and at the expense of the Co-Issuers, to the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange.

-105-

Section 9.8. Re-Pricing of Notes. (a) The Issuer, with the consent of the Portfolio Manager and the Retention Holder, may reduce the spread over the Reference Rate applicable with respect to any Class of Re-Pricing Eligible Notes (any such reduction with respect to any such Class of Notes, a “Re-Pricing” and any Class of Re-Pricing Eligible Notes to be subject to a Re-Pricing, a “Re-Priced Class”) on any Business Day after the Non-Call Period; provided that, the Issuer shall not effect any Re-Pricing unless each condition specified in this Section 9.8 is satisfied with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, no terms of any Re-Pricing Eligible Notes other than the Interest Rate applicable thereto may be modified or supplemented in connection with a Re-Pricing; provided that in connection with any Re-Pricing, (x) the Non-Call Period with respect to such Re-Priced Class may, with the consent of the Issuer, be extended and/or (y) the definition of “Redemption Price” may be revised, with the written consent of the Issuer, to reflect any agreed upon make-whole payments for the applicable Re-Priced Class. In connection with any Re-Pricing, the Issuer may engage a broker-dealer (the “Re-Pricing Intermediary”) upon the recommendation and subject to the approval of the Issuer and such Re-Pricing Intermediary shall assist the Issuer in effecting the Re-Pricing.

(b) At least fourteen (14) days prior to the Business Day fixed for any proposed Re-Pricing (the “Re-Pricing Date”) (unless the Trustee and the Portfolio Manager agree to a shorter period), the Issuer or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer, shall deliver a notice in writing (with a copy to the Portfolio Manager, the Trustee and each Rating Agency) to each Holder of the proposed Re-Priced Class, which notice shall (i) specify the proposed Re-Pricing Date and the revised spread (or range of spreads from which a single spread will be chosen prior to the Re-Pricing Date) over the Reference Rate (or, in the case of any Fixed Rate Notes, the Interest Rate) to be applied with respect to such Class (such spread or Interest Rate, as applicable, the “Re-Pricing Rate”), (ii) request that each Holder of the Re-Priced Class approve the proposed Re-Pricing or provide a proposed Re-Pricing Rate at which it would consent to such Re-Pricing that is within the range provided, if any, in clause (i) above (such proposal, a “Holder Proposed Re-Pricing Rate”), (iii) request that each consenting Holder of the Re-Priced Class deliver a response in writing to the Issuer, or to the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer, which response (the “Holder Purchase Request”) shall indicate the aggregate principal amount of the Re-Priced Class that such Holder is willing to purchase (or retain) at such Re-Pricing Rate (including within any range provided) specified in such notice, and (iv) state that the Issuer (or in the case of the following clause (a), the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer) will have the right to (a) cause all such Holders that did not deliver an Accepted Purchase Request (each, a “Non-Consenting Holder”) to sell their Notes of the Re-Priced Class on the Re-Pricing Date to one or more transferees at a sale price equal to the applicable Redemption Price, (b) redeem such Notes at the applicable Redemption Price with the proceeds of an issuance of Re-Pricing Replacement Notes or (c) amend, without consent, the interest rate applicable to the Notes of the Re-Priced Class held by Non-Consenting Holders to the Re-Pricing Rate in the event that the Issuer is unable to issue Re-Pricing Replacement Notes; provided that, at the direction of the Portfolio Manager, the Issuer may delay the Re-Pricing Date or determine the Re-Pricing Rate taking into consideration any Holder Proposed Re-Pricing Rates at any time up to two (2) Business Days prior to the Re-Pricing Date (upon notice to each Holder of the proposed Re-Priced Class, with a copy to the Portfolio Manager, the Trustee and each Rating Agency). Failure to give a notice of Re-Pricing, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Re-Priced Class shall not impair or affect the validity of the Re-Pricing or give rise to any claim based upon such failure or defect.

-106-

Any notice of Re-Pricing may be withdrawn (thereby canceling the Re-Pricing) by (x) the Portfolio Manager or (y) the Issuer, with the consent of the Portfolio Manager (to the extent applicable), in each case, for any reason by delivery of a written notice to the Trustee and the Co-Issuer no later than the Business Day prior to the proposed Re-Pricing Date. Once withdrawn, a subsequent notice of Re-Pricing may be given in accordance with this Section 9.8. At the cost of the Co-Issuers, the Trustee shall provide a copy of such written notice to the Rating Agency.

(c) In the event that any Holder of the Re-Priced Class does not deliver a written consent to the proposed Re-Pricing on or before the date that is at least five (5) Business Days (such date as determined by the Issuer in its sole discretion) after the date of such notice, the Issuer, or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer, shall deliver written notice thereof to any Consenting Holder of the Re-Priced Class who delivered a Holder Purchase Request with a Holder Proposed Re-Pricing Rate that is equal to or less than the Re-Pricing Rate as determined by the Portfolio Manager (such request, an “Accepted Purchase Request” and any Holder providing such Accepted Purchase Request, a “Consenting Holder”) specifying the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the Re-Priced Class that such Consenting Holder has offered to purchase at the Re-Pricing Rate and the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes that will be sold to such Consenting Holder. Notwithstanding the above, the Issuer, or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer, will cause the sale and transfer of Notes of any Non-Consenting Holders, without further notice to such Non-Consenting Holders, on the Re-Pricing Date to a transferee designated by the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer. All sales of Notes to be effected pursuant to this clause (c) will be made at the Redemption Price with respect to such Notes, and will be effected only if the related Re-Pricing is effected in accordance with this Section 9.8. The Holder of each Re-Pricing Eligible Note, by its acceptance of an interest in the Re-Pricing Eligible Notes, agrees to sell and transfer its Notes in accordance with this Section 9.8 and agrees to cooperate with the Issuer (or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer) and the Trustee to effect such sales and transfers. In the event that the Issuer (or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer) receives Accepted Purchase Requests with respect to more than the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the Re-Priced Class held by Non-Consenting Holders, the Issuer, or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer, shall cause the sale and transfer of such Notes or will sell Re-Pricing Replacement Notes to such Consenting Holders at the applicable Redemption Prices and, if applicable, conduct a redemption of Non-Consenting Holders’ Notes of the Re-Priced Class with the sale of Re-Pricing Replacement Notes, without further notice to the Non-Consenting Holders thereof, on the Re-Pricing Date to the Consenting Holders delivering Accepted Purchase Requests, with respect thereto, pro rata (subject to the applicable minimum denominations) based on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes such Consenting Holders indicated an interest in purchasing pursuant to their Holder Purchase Requests. In the event that the Issuer receives Accepted Purchase Requests with respect to less than the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the Re-Priced Class held by Non-Consenting Holders, the Issuer, or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer, shall cause the sale and transfer of such Notes of the Re-Priced Class or will sell Re-Pricing Replacement Notes to such Consenting Holders at the applicable Redemption Prices and, if applicable, conduct a redemption of Non-Consenting Holders’ Notes of the Re-Priced Class with the sale of Re-Pricing Replacement Notes, without further notice to the Non-Consenting Holders thereof, on the Re-Pricing Date to the Consenting Holders delivering Accepted Purchase Requests with respect thereto, and any excess Notes of the Re-Priced Class held by Non-Consenting Holders shall be sold to one or more purchasers designated by the Issuer (or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer) or redeemed with proceeds from the sale of Re-Pricing Replacement Notes. All sales of Non-Consenting Holders’ Notes or Re-Pricing Replacement Notes to be effectuated pursuant to this clause (c) shall be made at the applicable Redemption Price, and shall be effectuated only if the related Re-Pricing is effectuated in accordance with the provisions hereof.

-107-

(d)

The Issuer shall not effect any proposed Re-Pricing unless:

(i) the Co-Issuers and the Trustee shall have entered into a supplemental indenture dated as of the Re-Pricing Date, which can be executed and delivered without regard to the provisions of Article VIII hereof, solely to modify the spread over the Reference Rate applicable to the Re-Priced Class and, to the extent applicable, (with the consent of the Issuer) to extend the Non-Call Period applicable to such Re-Priced Class or make changes to the definition of “Redemption Price” to reflect any agreed upon make-whole payments for the applicable Re-Priced Class;

(ii) confirmation has been received that all Notes of the Re-Priced Class held by Non-Consenting Holders have been sold and transferred pursuant to clause (c) above;

(iii) each Rating Agency shall have been notified of such Re-Pricing;

(iv) all expenses of the Issuer and the Trustee (including the fees of the Re-Pricing Intermediary and fees of counsel) incurred in connection with the Re-Pricing do not exceed the amount of Interest Proceeds available after taking into account all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i) on the subsequent Distribution Date prior to the distribution of any remaining Interest Proceeds to the Issuer, unless such expenses have been paid or shall be adequately provided for (including without limitation, with Contributions and/or any proceeds from the issuance of Junior Mezzanine Notes in accordance with Section 2.4) by an entity other than the Issuer; and

(v) the Issuer shall have obtained Tax Advice to the effected that such Re-Pricing will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis (including any withholding tax liability under Section 1446 of the Code).

-108-

(e) The Issuer shall direct the Trustee to segregate payments and take other reasonable steps to effect the Re-Pricing and the Trustee shall have the authority to take such actions as may be directed by the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer (or the Re-Pricing Intermediary on behalf of the Issuer) or Portfolio Manager shall deem necessary or desirable to effect a Re-Pricing. In order to give effect to the Re-Pricing, the Issuer may, to the extent necessary, obtain and assign a separate CUSIP or CUSIPs to the Notes of each Class held by consenting Holders or Non-Consenting Holders.

(f) A second notice of a Re-Pricing shall be given by the Trustee not less than seven (7) Business Days prior to the proposed Re-Pricing Date, to each Holder of Notes of the Re-Priced Class at the address in the Register (with a copy to the Portfolio Manager), specifying the applicable Re-Pricing Date and the specific Re-Pricing Rate. Notice of Re-Pricing shall be given by the Trustee at the expense of the Issuer. Failure to give a notice of Re-Pricing, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Re-Priced Class will not impair or affect the validity of the Re-Pricing or give rise to any claim based upon such failure or defect.

(g) The Holder of each Note, by its acceptance of an interest in the Notes, agrees (i) to sell and transfer its Notes in accordance with the provisions hereof and to cooperate with the Issuer, the Re-Pricing Intermediary (if any) and the Trustee to effectuate such sales and transfers and (ii) in the event that such Holder (x) does not consent to a proposed Re-Pricing or to a sale of its interest and (y) does not otherwise cooperate with the Issuer, the Re-Pricing Intermediary (if any) and the Trustee, in each case to effectuate such sales and transfers within the time period described herein, then such Holder shall be deemed to consent to such Re-Pricing.

The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that a Re-Pricing is permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been complied with. The Trustee shall receive and shall rely on an Issuer Order providing direction and any additional information requested by the Trustee in order to effect a Re-Pricing in accordance with this Section 9.8.

ACCOUNTS, ACCOUNTINGS AND RELEASES

Section 10.1. Collection of Money. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and shall receive and collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent or other intermediary, all Money and other property payable to or receivable by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, including all payments due on the Pledged Obligations, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Pledged Obligations. The Trustee shall segregate and hold all such Money and property received by it in trust for the Holders of the Notes and shall apply it as provided in this Indenture.

Section 10.2. Collection Accounts. (a) The Trustee has established at the Custodian two segregated non-interest bearing trust accounts, each held in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, one of which shall be designated the “Interest Collection Account” and the other of which shall be designated the “Principal Collection Account,” each of which shall be maintained by the Issuer with the Custodian in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement. The Trustee shall from time to time deposit into the Interest Collection Account, in addition to the deposits required pursuant to Section 10.6(a), immediately upon receipt thereof (i) any funds in the Reserve Account deemed by the Portfolio Manager in its sole discretion to be Interest Proceeds pursuant to Section 10.3(e) and (ii) all Interest Proceeds (unless simultaneously reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations in accordance with Article XII) received by the Trustee. The Trustee shall deposit immediately upon receipt thereof all other amounts remitted to the Collection Account into the Principal Collection Account, including in addition to the deposits required pursuant to Section 10.6(a), (i) any funds in the Reserve Account deemed by the Portfolio Manager in its sole discretion to be Principal Proceeds pursuant to Section 10.3(e), (ii) all Principal Proceeds (unless simultaneously reinvested in additional Collateral Obligations in accordance with Article XII or in Eligible Investments) received by the Trustee, and (iii) all other funds received by the Trustee. In addition, the Issuer may, but under no circumstances shall be required to, deposit from time to time such Monies (including any Monies received by way of capital contribution from its member(s)) in the Collection Account as it deems, in its sole discretion, to be advisable and to designate them as Interest Proceeds or Principal Proceeds. All Monies deposited from time to time in the Collection Account pursuant to this Indenture shall be held by the Trustee as part of the Assets and shall be applied to the purposes herein provided. Subject to Section 10.2(c), amounts in the Collection Account shall be reinvested pursuant to Section 10.6(a).

(b) The Trustee, within one Business Day after receipt of any distribution or other proceeds in respect of the Assets which are not Cash, shall so notify or cause the Issuer to be notified and the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice from the Trustee (or as soon as practicable thereafter), sell such distribution or other proceeds for Cash in an arm’s length transaction to a Person which is not the Portfolio Manager or an Affiliate of the Issuer or the Portfolio Manager and deposit the proceeds thereof in the Collection Account; provided, however, that the Issuer (i) need not sell such distributions or other proceeds if it delivers an Officer’s certificate to the Trustee certifying that such distributions or other proceeds constitute Collateral Obligations or Eligible Investments or (ii) may otherwise retain such distribution or other proceeds for up to two years from the date of receipt thereof if it delivers an Officer’s certificate to the Trustee certifying that (x) it shall sell such distribution within such two (2)-year period and (y) retaining such distribution is not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture.

(c) At any time when reinvestment is permitted pursuant to Article XII, the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, withdraw Principal Proceeds on deposit in the subaccount of the Principal Collection Account designated in such Issuer Order (including Principal Financed Accrued Interest used to pay for accrued interest on an additional Collateral Obligation) and reinvest such funds in additional Collateral Obligations, in each case in accordance with the requirements of Article XII and such Issuer Order.

After the Issuer has notified the Trustee of an Optional Redemption of the Notes in whole (unless such Optional Redemption is funded solely with Refinancing Proceeds), a redemption of the Notes in connection with a Tax Event in accordance with Section 9.2, a Clean-Up Call Redemption in accordance with Section 9.6 or otherwise in connection with the Stated Maturity, the Portfolio Manager shall direct the Trustee to sell (which sale may be through participation or other arrangement) all or a portion of the Collateral Obligations if the requirements of Article IX (including the certification requirements of Section 9.2(d)) are satisfied. If any such sale is made through participation, the Issuer shall use reasonable efforts to cause such participations to be converted to assignments within six months of the sale.

(f) Discretionary Sales. The Portfolio Manager may direct the Trustee to sell any Collateral Obligation (other than one being sold pursuant to clauses (a) through (e) above) (each such sale, a “Discretionary Sale”) at any time if (i) after giving effect to such Discretionary Sale, the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Collateral Obligations sold pursuant to Discretionary Sales during the same calendar year is not greater than 25.0% of the Collateral Principal Amount plus without duplication, any Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Contribution Account (including Eligible Investments therein) (measured as of the beginning of such calendar year or, in the case of the year 2021, the Refinancing Date Par Amount); and (ii) either:

(A) at any time (1) the Sale Proceeds from such Discretionary Sale are at least sufficient to maintain or increase the Adjusted Collateral Principal Amount (as measured before such sale), or (2) after giving effect to such Discretionary Sale, the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (excluding the Collateral Obligation being sold) plus, without duplication, Cash and Eligible Investments (as applicable) constituting Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Accounts (including, without duplication, the anticipated net proceeds of such sale), (x) is maintained or increased or (y) shall be equal to or greater than the Reinvestment Target Par Balance; or

(B) during the Reinvestment Period, the Portfolio Manager reasonably believes it will be able to reinvest such Sale Proceeds in compliance with the Investment Criteria.

-135-

For purposes of determining the percentage of Collateral Obligations sold during any such period, the amount of any Collateral Obligations sold shall be reduced to the extent of any purchases (or irrevocable commitments to purchase) of Collateral Obligations of the same obligor (which are pari passu or senior to such sold Collateral Obligations) so long as any such Collateral Obligation was sold with the intention of purchasing a Collateral Obligation of the same obligor (which would be pari passu or senior to such sold Collateral Obligation).

(g) Mandatory Sales.

(i) The Portfolio Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell each Pledged Obligation that constitutes Margin Stock not later than forty-five (45) days after the later of (x) the date of the Issuer’s acquisition thereof and (y) the date such Pledged Obligation became Margin Stock, in each case, unless such sale or other disposition is prohibited by applicable law or contractual restriction, in which case the Portfolio Manager will sell such Margin Stock as soon as such sale or disposition is permitted by applicable law and not prohibit by such contractual restriction.

(ii) At any time that the Issuer holds Margin Stock with an aggregate Market Value in excess of 10% of the Collateral Principal Amount, the Portfolio Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell Margin Stock with an aggregate Market Value at least equal to such excess.

(h) Unsalable Assets. After the Reinvestment Period:

(i) (A) At the direction and discretion of the Portfolio Manager, the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, may conduct an auction of Unsalable Assets in accordance with the procedures described in clause (ii) below or (B) receive or deliver such Unsalable Assets to the Portfolio Manager or one or more related entities thereof, at the respective Market Value of such Unsalable Assets, if the Portfolio Manager determines in its sole discretion (not to be called into question as a result of subsequent events) that an auction of such Unsalable Assets pursuant to clause (A) above would increase costs to the Issuer on a net basis after taking into account expected proceeds from such auction.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of such direction, the Trustee shall provide notice (in such form as is prepared by the Portfolio Manager) to the Holders (and each Rating Agency then rating any Notes) of an auction, setting forth in reasonable detail a description of each Unsalable Asset and the following auction procedures:

(A) any Holder of Notes may submit a written bid to purchase one or more Unsalable Assets no later than the date specified in the auction notice (which shall be at least fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of such notice);

(B) each bid must include an offer to purchase for a specified amount of Cash on a proposed settlement date no later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date of the auction notice;

-136-

(C) if no Holder submits such a bid, unless delivery in kind is not legally or commercially practicable, the Trustee shall provide notice thereof to each Holder and offer to deliver (at no cost to the Holders or the Trustee) a pro rata portion of each unsold Unsalable Asset to the Holders of the most senior Class that provide delivery instructions to the Trustee on or before the date specified in such notice, subject to any transfer restrictions (including minimum denominations). To the extent that minimum denominations do not permit a pro rata distribution, the Portfolio Manager shall identify and the Trustee shall distribute the Unsalable Assets on a pro rata basis to the extent possible and the Portfolio Manager shall select by lottery the Holder to whom the remaining amount shall be delivered. The Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect delivery of such interests. For the avoidance of doubt, any such delivery to the Holders of Notes shall not operate to reduce the principal amount of the related Class of Notes held by such Holders; and

(D) if no such Holder provides delivery instructions to the Trustee, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Portfolio Manager and offer to deliver (at no cost to the Trustee) the Unsalable Asset to the Portfolio Manager. If the Portfolio Manager declines such offer, the Trustee shall take such action as directed by the Portfolio Manager (on behalf of the Issuer) to dispose of the Unsalable Asset, which may be by donation to a charity, abandonment or other means.

Section 12.2. Purchase of Additional Collateral Obligations. On any date during the Reinvestment Period provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and after the Reinvestment Period (x) subject to certain limitations described herein with respect to commitments to purchase Collateral Obligations prior to the expiration of the Reinvestment Period, (y) purchases made pursuant to Section 12.2(d) and (z) purchases made with Principal Proceeds received pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(ii)(E) on the last Distribution Date of the Reinvestment Period), the Portfolio Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, may, but shall not be required to (subject to Section 12.2(d)), direct the Trustee to invest Principal Proceeds received by the Issuer prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period (together with accrued interest received with respect to any Collateral Obligations to the extent used to pay for accrued interest on additional Collateral Obligations) and any amounts available for a Permitted Use in additional Collateral Obligations, and the Trustee shall invest such proceeds, if, as certified by the Portfolio Manager, to the best of its knowledge, each of the conditions specified in this Section 12.2 and Section 12.3 are met. After the Reinvestment Period, the Portfolio Manager shall not direct the Collateral Trustee to invest any amounts on behalf of the Issuer; provided that the Portfolio Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, may (but shall not be required to) direct the Collateral Trustee to (x) invest cash on deposit in any Account (other than the Payment Account) in Eligible Investments following the Reinvestment Period and (y) settle pending purchases made but that have not settled prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period with Principal Proceeds received prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(ii)(E) on the last Distribution Date of the Reinvestment Period if the Portfolio Manager reasonably expects that such pending purchase will settle no later than 90 days after the end of the Reinvestment Period.

-137-

(a) Investment Criteria. No Collateral Obligation may be purchased during the Reinvestment Period unless the Portfolio Manager reasonably believes each of the following conditions are satisfied as of the date it commits on behalf of the Issuer to make such purchase or on the date of such purchase, in each case after giving effect to such purchase and all other sales or purchases previously or simultaneously committed to:

(i) such obligation is a Collateral Obligation;

(ii) each Coverage Test shall be satisfied or, if not satisfied, such Coverage Test shall be maintained or improved;

(iii) in the case of additional Collateral Obligations purchased with the proceeds from the sale of a Credit Improved Obligation or a Discretionary Sale, after giving effect to such purchases and sales either (A) the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (including the Collateral Obligation being purchased but excluding the Collateral Obligation being sold) plus, without duplication, Cash and Eligible Investments constituting Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Accounts (including, without duplication, the anticipated net proceeds of the same), will be maintained or increased (by comparison to the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments constituting Principal Proceeds immediately prior to such sale or payment previously or simultaneously committed to which has not yet settled) or following such purchase will be greater than or equal to the Reinvestment Target Par Balance or (B) the Adjusted Collateral Principal Amount, as measured both before such sale or receipt of such proceeds, as applicable, and after giving effect to the reinvestment, will be maintained or increased;

(iv) other than in connection with a Bankruptcy Exchange or an Exchange Transaction, in the case of additional Collateral Obligations purchased with the proceeds from the sale of a Credit Risk Obligation or Defaulted Obligation sold at the discretion of the Portfolio Manager, after giving effect to such purchases either (A) the Aggregate Principal Balance of all additional Collateral Obligations purchased with the proceeds from such sale will at least equal the related Sale Proceeds, or (B) the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations (including the Collateral Obligation(s) being purchased but excluding the Collateral Obligation being sold) plus, without duplication, Cash and Eligible Investments constituting Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Accounts (including, without duplication, the anticipated net proceeds of such sale) (x) is maintained or increased (by comparison to the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Obligations and Eligible Investments constituting Principal Proceeds immediately prior to such sale or payment previously or simultaneously committed to which has not yet settled) or (y) will be greater than or equal to the Reinvestment Target Par Balance; and

(v) other than in connection with a Bankruptcy Exchange or an Exchange Transaction, either (A) each requirement or test, as the case may be, of the Concentration Limitations and the Collateral Quality Test shall be satisfied or (B) if any such requirement or test was not satisfied immediately prior to such reinvestment, such requirement or test shall be maintained or improved after giving effect to the reinvestment;

provided that clauses (ii) through (v) above need not be satisfied with respect to one single reinvestment if they are satisfied on an aggregate basis in accordance with an Aggregated Reinvestment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Investment Criteria need not be satisfied with respect to any asset acquired in connection an insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, default, workout or restructuring or similar event of or with respect to a Collateral Obligation or an Obligor thereof.

-138-

During the Reinvestment Period, the Issuer shall not enter into a commitment to purchase any Collateral Obligation the settlement date for which the Portfolio Manager reasonably expects will occur after the end of the Reinvestment Period unless (x) to the extent such Collateral Obligation would be purchased using Principal Proceeds, only that portion of such Principal Proceeds that the Portfolio Manager reasonably expects will be received prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period may be used to effect such purchase and such Collateral Obligation shall be treated as having been purchased by the Issuer prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period for purposes of the Investment Criteria and (y) in the reasonable determination of the Portfolio Manager there will be sufficient proceeds (including Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Collection Account at the time of the proposed purchase, Principal Proceeds permitted to be used in accordance with the preceding clause (x), Eligible Investments constituting Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Collection Account and any Sale Proceeds to be received from any sales committed to during the Reinvestment Period) to settle such proposed purchase.

(b) Other Assets. At any time during or after the Reinvestment Period, at the direction of the Portfolio Manager, the Issuer may direct the payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account to acquire any debt obligation or security in accordance with the requirements of Section 10.2(d). Any such transaction or exchange described above in this Section 12.2(b) shall not constitute a sale under this Indenture or be subject to the Investment Criteria.

(c) Bankruptcy Exchanges; Permitted Uses. At any time during or after the Reinvestment Period, the Portfolio Manager may direct the Trustee to enter into a Bankruptcy Exchange or apply amounts on deposit in the Contribution Account (as directed by the related Contributor or, if no such direction is given by the Contributor, as directed by the Portfolio Manager in its sole discretion) and/or any proceeds from the issuance of Junior Mezzanine Notes in accordance with Section 2.4 to one or more Permitted Uses.

(d) Investment in Eligible Investments. Cash on deposit in any Account (other than the Payment Account) may be invested at any time in Eligible Investments in accordance with Article X.

Section 12.3. Conditions Applicable to All Sale and Purchase Transactions. (a) Any transaction effected under this Article XII shall be conducted on an arm’s length basis and, if effected with a Person Affiliated with the Portfolio Manager, shall be effected in accordance with the requirements of Section 9 of the Portfolio Management Agreement on terms no less favorable to the Issuer than would be the case if such Person were not so Affiliated; provided that, in the case of any Collateral Obligation sold or otherwise transferred to a Person so Affiliated, the Portfolio Manager shall obtain either (x) bids for such Collateral Obligation from three unaffiliated loan market participants (or, if the Portfolio Manager is unable to obtain bids from three such participants, then such lesser number of unaffiliated loan market participants from which the Portfolio Manager can obtain bids using efforts consistent with the Portfolio Manager Standard), or (y) if the Portfolio Manager is unable to obtain any bids for such Collateral Obligation from an unaffiliated loan market participant, a Valuation of the Collateral Obligation (the highest bid provided by an unaffiliated loan market participant described in clause (x) or the fair market value established by the Valuation described in clause (y), (the “Applicable Qualified Valuation”)), and such Affiliate shall acquire such Collateral Obligation for a price equal to the price established by such Applicable Qualified Valuation; provided, further, that an aggregate amount of Collateral Obligations not exceeding 15% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance may be sold or otherwise transferred to the Transferor pursuant hereto at a price greater than the Applicable Qualified Valuation, but no greater than the outstanding principal balance of such Collateral Obligation, together with accrued interest thereon through such date of determination (and to the extent such outstanding principal balance and accrued interest for such Collateral Obligation exceeds the fair market value of any such Collateral Obligation, such excess shall be deemed to be a capital contribution from the Transferor to the Issuer); provided, further, that the aggregate amount of Collateral Obligations sold to the Transferor or its affiliates may not exceed 20% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to oversee compliance with this clause (a) by the other parties.

-139-

(b) Upon any acquisition of a Collateral Obligation pursuant to this Article XII, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest to the Pledged Obligation or Pledged Obligations shall be Granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, such Pledged Obligations shall be Delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall also receive, not later than the Cut-Off Date, an Officer’s certificate of the Issuer containing the statements set forth in Section 3.1(a)(x); provided that such requirement shall be satisfied, and such statements shall be deemed to have been made by the Issuer, in respect of such acquisition by the delivery to the Trustee of a trade ticket in respect thereof that is signed by an Authorized Officer of the Portfolio Manager.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article XII to the contrary, the Issuer shall have the right to effect any sale of any Pledged Obligation or purchase of any Collateral Obligation (provided in the case of a purchase of a Collateral Obligation, such purchase complies with the applicable requirements of the Portfolio Management Agreement) (x) that has been consented to by Holders evidencing at least a Supermajority of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of each Class of Notes and (y) of which the Trustee and each Rating Agency has been notified.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, as a condition to any purchase of an additional Collateral Obligation, if, as determined by the Issuer, the cash balance in the Principal Collection Account after giving effect to (i) all expected debits and credits in connection with such purchase and all other sales and purchases (as applicable) previously or simultaneously committed to, and (ii) without duplication of amounts in the preceding clause (i), anticipated receipts of Principal Proceeds, is a negative amount, the absolute value of such amount may not be greater than 5.0% of the Adjusted Collateral Principal Amount as of the Measurement Date immediately preceding the trade date for such purchase. In no event will the Trustee be obligated to settle a trade to the extent such action would result in a negative balance or overdraft of the Principal Collection Account, and the Trustee shall incur no liability for refusing to wire funds in excess of the balance of funds in the Principal Collection Account.

-140-

Section 12.4. Exchange Transactions.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 12.2 to the contrary, prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period, a Defaulted Obligation (a “Purchased Defaulted Obligation”) may be purchased with all or a portion of the Sale Proceeds of another Defaulted Obligation (an “Exchanged Defaulted Obligation”) (each such exchange referred to as an “Exchange Transaction”), if:

(i) when compared to the Exchanged Defaulted Obligation, the Purchased Defaulted Obligation (A) is issued by a different obligor, (B) but for the fact that such debt obligation is a Defaulted Obligation, such Purchased Defaulted Obligation would otherwise qualify as a Collateral Obligation and (C) the expected recovery rate of such Purchased Defaulted Obligation, as determined by the Portfolio Manager in good faith, is no less than the expected recovery rate of the Exchanged Defaulted Obligation;

(ii) the Portfolio Manager has certified in writing to the Trustee that:

(A) at the time of the purchase, (i) the Purchased Defaulted Obligation is no less senior in right of payment vis-à-vis its related obligor’s outstanding indebtedness than the seniority of the Exchanged Defaulted Obligation and (ii) the Fitch Rating, if any, of the Purchased Defaulted Obligation is the same or better Fitch Rating, if any, of the Exchanged Defaulted Obligation;

(B) after giving effect to the purchase, (i) each of the Coverage Tests is satisfied and (ii) the Collateral Principal Amount shall not be reduced;

(C) both prior to and after giving effect to such purchase, the Concentration Limitations were and will be satisfied or, if any Concentration Limitation was not satisfied prior to such purchase, such Concentration Limitation will be maintained or improved;

(D) the period for which the Issuer held the Exchanged Defaulted Obligation will be included for all purposes in this Indenture when determining the period for which the Issuer holds the Purchased Defaulted Obligation;

(E) the Exchanged Defaulted Obligation was not previously a Purchased Defaulted Obligation acquired in a transaction pursuant to this Section 12.4; and

(F) the Restricted Trading Period is not in effect; and

(iii) such purchase of the Purchased Defaulted Obligation will not, (A) when taken together with all other Purchased Defaulted Obligations then held by the Issuer, cause the Aggregate Principal Balance of all of Purchased Defaulted Obligations then held by Issuer to exceed 1.0% of the Aggregate Collateral Balance as of any date of determination and (B) will not cause the Aggregate Principal Balance of all Purchased Defaulted Obligations purchased pursuant to an Exchange Transaction, measured cumulatively since the Refinancing Date, to exceed 5.0% of the Refinancing Date Par Amount.

For the avoidance of doubt, Exchange Transactions may occur by separate purchase and sale transactions. If, at any time, a Purchased Defaulted Obligation no longer satisfies the definition of Defaulted Obligation, it shall no longer be considered a Purchased Defaulted Obligation.

NOTEHOLDERS’ RELATIONS

Section 13.1. Subordination. (a) Anything in this Indenture or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (except subject in all cases to Section 5.4(e)), the Holders of each Class of Notes that constitutes a Junior Class agree for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes of each Priority Class with respect to such Junior Class that such Junior Class shall be subordinate and junior to the Notes of each such Priority Class to the extent and in the manner set forth in Article XI of this Indenture. On any Post-Acceleration Distribution Date or on the Stated Maturity, all accrued and unpaid interest on and outstanding principal of each Priority Class shall be paid pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(iii) in full in Cash or, to the extent 100% of the Holders of each Class of Notes consent, other than in Cash, before any further payment or distribution is made on account of any Junior Class with respect thereto, to the extent and in the manner provided in Section 11.1(a)(iii).

(b) On or after a Post-Acceleration Distribution Date or on the Stated Maturity, in the event that notwithstanding the provisions of this Indenture, any Holder of Notes of any Junior Class shall have received any payment or distribution in respect of such Notes contrary to the provisions of this Indenture, then, unless and until all accrued and unpaid interest on and outstanding principal of each Priority Class with respect thereto shall have been paid in full in Cash or, to the extent a Majority of each Class of Notes consents, other than in Cash in accordance with this Indenture, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over and delivered to, the Trustee, which shall pay and deliver the same to the Holders of the applicable Priority Class(es) in accordance with this Indenture; provided that, if any such payment or distribution is made other than in Cash, it shall be held by the Trustee as part of the Assets and subject in all respects to the provisions of this Indenture, including this Section 13.1.

Nothing in this Section 13.1 shall affect the obligation of the Issuer to pay Holders of any Junior Class of Notes.

(d) The Holders of each Class of Notes agree, for the benefit of all Holders of each Class of Notes, not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer until the payment in full of the Notes and not before one year and a day, or if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect, has elapsed since such payment.

-142-

Section 13.2. Standard of Conduct. In exercising any of its or their voting rights, rights to direct and consent or any other rights as a Holder under this Indenture, a Holder or Holders shall not have any obligation or duty to any Person or to consider or take into account the interests of any Person and shall not be liable to any Person for any action taken by it or them or at its or their direction or any failure by it or them to act or to direct that an action be taken, without regard to whether such action or inaction benefits or adversely affects any Holder, the Issuer, or any other Person, except for any liability to which such Holder may be subject to the extent the same results from such Holder’s taking or directing an action, or failing to take or direct an action, in bad faith or in violation of the express terms of this Indenture.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 14.1. Form of Documents Delivered to the Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an Officer of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Portfolio Manager may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such Officer knows, or should know that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Officer of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Portfolio Manager or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Portfolio Manager or any other Person, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Portfolio Manager or such other Person, unless such Officer of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Portfolio Manager or such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may also be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such matters is in the possession of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

-143-

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation of a Default or Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Trustee at the request or direction of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, then notwithstanding that the satisfaction of such condition is a condition precedent to the Issuer’s or the Co-Issuer’s right to make such request or direction, the Trustee shall be protected in acting in accordance with such request or direction if it does not have knowledge of the occurrence and continuation of such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section 6.1(d).

(c) In the event that any provision in this Indenture calls for any notice or document to be delivered simultaneously to the Trustee and any other person or entity, the Trustee’s receipt of such notice or document shall entitle the Trustee to assume that such notice or document was delivered to such other person or entity unless otherwise expressly specified herein.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any agreement or document related thereto, any report, statement or other information required to be provided by the Issuer or the Trustee (except information required to be provided to the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange) may be provided by providing access to a website containing such information.

(e) The Bank (in each of its capacities) agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture or any other document executed in connection therewith sent by unsecured email, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods, provided, however, that any person providing such instructions or directions shall provide to the Bank an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to provide such instructions or directions, which incumbency certificate shall be amended whenever a person is added or deleted from the listing. If such person elects to give the Bank email or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Bank in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Bank’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Bank shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Bank’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any person providing such instructions or directions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Bank, including without limitation the risk of the Bank acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties, and acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by it and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of such instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances.

Section 14.4. Notices to Holders; Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event,

(a) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Register or, as applicable, in accordance with the procedures at DTC, as soon as reasonably practicable but in any case not earlier than the earliest date and not later than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice; and

(b) such notice shall be in the English language.

Such notices shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such mailing.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to holders of Interests, such notice shall be sufficiently given if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, or by overnight delivery service to Issuer, or by electronic mail transmission, at the Issuer’s address pursuant to Section 14.3 hereof with a copy to the Portfolio Manager. The Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on its behalf) shall forward all notices received pursuant to the preceding sentence to the holders of Interests. The Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on its behalf) shall provide notice and a consent solicitation package to each holder of an Interest to the extent that such holder’s consent or approval is required hereunder. The Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on its behalf) shall provide written notice to the Trustee confirming any such approval or consent obtained from the requisite holders of the Interests.

The Trustee shall deliver to the Holders any information or notice relating to this Indenture requested to be so delivered by at least 25% of the Holders of any Class of Notes (by Aggregate Outstanding Amount), at the expense of the Issuer.

The Trustee shall deliver to any Holder of Notes or any Person that has certified to the Trustee in a writing substantially in the form of Exhibit D to this Indenture that it is the owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note, any information or notice requested to be so delivered by a Holder or a Person that has made such certification that is reasonably available to the Trustee and all related costs will be borne by the requesting Holder or Person.

Neither the failure to mail any notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail of any event to Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then such notification to Holders as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder.

-147-

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

Section 14.5. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein (including those used in cross-references herein) and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 14.6. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Co-Issuers shall bind their respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 14.7. Separability. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, in case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 14.8. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, the Portfolio Manager, the Holders of the Notes, the Collateral Administrator and (to the extent provided herein), the Administrator (solely in its capacity as such) and the other Secured Parties any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 14.9. Legal Holidays. In the event that the date of any Distribution Date or Redemption Date or Stated Maturity shall not be a Business Day, then notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture, payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the nominal date of any such Distribution Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity date, as the case may be, and except as provided in the definition of “Interest Accrual Period” no interest shall accrue on such payment for the period from and after any such nominal date.

Section 14.10. Governing Law. THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED IN ALL RESPECTS (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT) BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS.

Section 14.11. Submission to Jurisdiction. With respect to any Proceeding relating to this Indenture or any matter between the parties arising under or in connection with this Indenture, each party irrevocably: (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof; and (ii) waives any objection which it may have at any time to the laying of venue of any Proceedings brought in any such court, waives any claim that such Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and further waives the right to object, with respect to such Proceedings, that such court does not have any jurisdiction over such party. Nothing herein precludes any of the parties from bringing Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, nor will the bringing of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction.

-148-

Section 14.12. Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. This Indenture shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature; (ii) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or (iii) any other electronic signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, including any relevant provisions of the UCC (collectively, “Signature Law”), in each case to the extent applicable. Each faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, of any other party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution or indorsement of writings when required under the UCC or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings.

Section 14.13. Acts of Issuer. Any report, information, communication, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or performed by the Issuer shall be effective if given or performed by the Issuer or by the Portfolio Manager on the Issuer’s behalf.

Section 14.14. Confidential Information. (a) The Trustee, the Collateral Administrator and each Holder of Notes shall maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by the Issuer or such Holder in good faith to protect Confidential Information of third parties delivered to such Person; provided that such Person may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to: (i) such Person’s directors, trustees, officers, auditors, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 14.14 and to the extent such disclosure is reasonably required for the administration of this Indenture, the matters contemplated hereby or the investment represented by the Notes; (ii) with the consent of the Co-Issuers and the Portfolio Manager, such Person’s financial advisors and other professional advisors (including auditors and attorneys) who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 14.14 and to the extent such disclosure is reasonably required for the administration of this Indenture, the matters contemplated hereby or the investment represented by the Notes; (iii) any other Holder; (iv) any Person of the type that would be, to such Person’s knowledge, permitted to acquire Notes in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.6 hereof to which such Person sells or offers to sell any such Notes or any part thereof (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.14); (v) with the consent of the Co-Issuers and the Portfolio Manager, any other Person from which such former Person offers to purchase any security of the Co-Issuers (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.14); (vi) any Federal or state or other regulatory, governmental or judicial authority having jurisdiction over such Person; (vii) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about the investment portfolio of such Person, reinsurers and liquidity and credit providers that agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 14.14; (viii) the Rating Agency; (ix) any other Person with the written consent of the Co-Issuers and the Portfolio Manager; (x) any other disclosure that is permitted or required under this Indenture or the Collateral Administration Agreement; or (xi) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (A) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Person, (B) in response to any subpoena or other legal process upon prior notice to the Co-Issuers (unless prohibited by applicable law, rule, order or decree or other requirement having the force of law), (C) in connection with any litigation to which such Person is a party upon prior notice to the Co-Issuers (unless prohibited by applicable law, rule, order or decree or other requirement having the force of law) or (D) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Person may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under the Notes or this Indenture; and provided, further, however, that delivery to Holders by the Trustee or the Collateral Administrator of any report or information required by the terms of this Indenture to be provided to Holders shall not be a violation of this Section 14.14. Each Holder of Notes agrees, except as set forth in clauses (vi), (vii) and (x) above, that it shall use the Confidential Information for the sole purpose of making an investment in the Notes or administering its investment in the Notes; and that the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator shall not be required or authorized to disclose to Holders any Confidential Information in violation of this Section 14.14. In the event of any required disclosure of the Confidential Information by such Holder, such Holder agrees to use reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance of an interest in the Notes, shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 14.14. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator, the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes (and each of their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal, state and local income tax treatment of the Issuer and the transactions contemplated by this Indenture and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to them relating to such U.S. federal, state and local income tax treatment.

At all times while any Notes are rated by any Rating Agency or any other NRSRO, the Co-Issuers shall engage a third party to forward 17g-5 Information to the Issuer’s Posting Email (as defined in the Collateral Administration Agreement) for forwarding to the 17g-5 Website.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maintenance by the Trustee of the website described in Section 10.7(h) shall not be deemed as compliance by or on behalf of the Issuer with Rule 17g-5 or any other law or regulation related thereto.

From and after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Portfolio Manager shall continue to perform and be bound by the provisions of the Portfolio Management Agreement and this Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely and be protected in relying upon all actions and omissions to act of the Portfolio Manager thereafter as fully as if no Event of Default had occurred.

(b) The assignment made hereby is executed as collateral security, and the execution and delivery hereby shall not in any way impair or diminish the obligations of the Issuer under the provisions of the Portfolio Management Agreement, or increase, impair or alter the rights and obligations of the Portfolio Manager under the Portfolio Management Agreement, nor shall any of the obligations contained in the Portfolio Management Agreement be imposed on the Trustee.

(c) Upon the retirement of the Notes, the payment of all amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Distributions and the release of the Assets from the lien of this Indenture, this assignment and all rights herein assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders shall cease and terminate and all the estate, right, title and interest of the Trustee in, to and under the Portfolio Management Agreement shall revert to the Issuer and no further instrument or act shall be necessary to evidence such termination and reversion.

HEDGE AGREEMENTS

Section 16.1. Hedge Agreements. (a) The Issuer may enter into Hedge Agreements from time to time on and after the Refinancing Date solely for the purpose of managing interest rate and other risks in connection with the Issuer’s issuance of, and making payments on, the Notes. The Issuer shall promptly provide notice of entry into any Hedge Agreement to the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall not enter into any Hedge Agreement unless (i) either (1) the Portfolio Manager is registered as a commodity pool operator with the CFTC or (2) the Portfolio Manager is exempt from registration with the CFTC as a commodity pool operator, (ii) the Fitch Rating Condition has been satisfied with respect thereto, (iii) the consent of a Majority of the Controlling Class is obtained, and (iv) such Hedge Agreement is an interest rate or foreign exchange derivative and the terms of such derivative relate to the loans and reduce the interest rate or foreign exchange risks related to the loans. The Issuer shall provide a copy of each Hedge Agreement to the Trustee and each Rating Agency.

Each Hedge Agreement shall contain appropriate limited recourse and non-petition provisions equivalent (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in Section 2.8(i) and Section 5.4(d). Each Hedge Counterparty shall be required to have, at the time that the Issuer enters into any Hedge Agreement with any such Hedge Counterparty, the Required Hedge Counterparty Ratings, unless such Hedge Counterparty has the minimum ratings required by Fitch at the time the Issuer enters into such Hedge Agreement, unless Fitch provides written confirmation that such Hedge Counterparty is not required to have such minimum ratings. Payments with respect to Hedge Agreements shall be subject to Article XI. Each Hedge Agreement shall contain an acknowledgement by the Hedge Counterparty that the obligations of the Issuer to the Hedge Counterparty under the relevant Hedge Agreement shall be payable in accordance with Article XI of this Indenture.

-154-

(b) In the event of any early termination of a Hedge Agreement with respect to which the Hedge Counterparty is the sole “defaulting party” or “affected party” (each as defined in the Hedge Agreements), (i) any termination payment paid by the Hedge Counterparty to the Issuer may be paid to a replacement Hedge Counterparty at the direction of the Portfolio Manager and (ii) any payment received from a replacement Hedge Counterparty may be paid to the replaced Hedge Counterparty at the direction of the Portfolio Manager under the terminated Hedge Agreement.

(c) The Issuer (or the Portfolio Manager on its behalf) shall, upon receiving written notice of the exposure calculated under a credit support annex to any Hedge Agreement, if applicable, make a demand to the relevant Hedge Counterparty and its credit support provider, if applicable, for securities having a value under such credit support annex equal to the required credit support amount.

(d) Each Hedge Agreement shall, at a minimum, permit the Issuer to terminate such agreement (with the Hedge Counterparty bearing the costs of any replacement Hedge Agreement) if such Hedge Counterparty fails to do any of the following as and when applicable.

If any of the Hedge Counterparty (or its guarantor under the Hedge Agreement) no longer meets the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, such Hedge Counterparty must, at its own cost, assign the Hedge Agreement to a Hedge Counterparty within sixty (60) Business Days, and if such assignment has not been accomplished within ten (10) days, provide Hedge Counterparty Credit Support pending such assignment.

(e) The Issuer shall give prompt notice to each Rating Agency of any termination of a Hedge Agreement or agreement to provide Hedge Counterparty Credit Support. Any collateral received from a Hedge Counterparty under a Hedge Agreement shall be deposited in the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account.

(f) If a Hedge Counterparty has defaulted in the payment when due of its obligations to the Issuer under the Hedge Agreement, the Portfolio Manager shall make a demand on the Hedge Counterparty (or its guarantor under the Hedge Agreement) with a copy to the Portfolio Manager, demanding payment by the close of business on such date (or by such time on the next succeeding Business Day if such knowledge is obtained after 11:30 a.m., New York time).

(g) Each Hedge Agreement shall provide that it may not be terminated due to the occurrence of an Event of Default until liquidation of the Assets has commenced.

FITCH RATING DEFINITIONS

“Fitch Rating” means, with respect to any Collateral Obligation, as of any date of determination, the rating determined in accordance with the following methodology:

1	Public Fitch long-term issuer default rating (“LT IDR”) or Fitch long-term issuer default credit opinion (“LT IDCO”).

2	If Fitch has not issued a LT IDR or LT IDCO, but has an outstanding insurer financial strength rating (“IFSR”), then the Fitch Rating is one rating lower.

3	If Fitch has not issued a LT IDR, LT IDCO or IFSR, but has outstanding corporate issue ratings, then the Fitch Rating is calculated using the Fitch IDR Equivalency Table.

4	If Fitch does not rate the issuer (LT IDR, LT IDCO, IFSR) or any associated issuance, then determine a Moody’s and S&P equivalent to Fitch’s LT IDR pursuant to steps 5 and 6.

5a	A public Moody’s-issued corporate family rating (“CFR”) is equivalent in terms of definition to the Fitch LT IDR; if Moody’s has not issued a CFR, but has a public LT issuer rating, then this is equivalent to the Fitch LT IDR.

5b	If Moody’s has not issued a CFR or LT issuer rating, but has a public insurance financial strength rating, then the Fitch Rating is one rating lower.

If Moody’s has not issued a CFR, LT issuer rating or insurance financial strength rating, but has public corporate issue ratings, then the Fitch Rating is calculated using the Fitch IDR Equivalency Table.

6a	A public S&P-issued issuer credit rating (“ICR”) is equivalent in terms of definition to the Fitch LT IDR.

6b	If S&P has not issued an ICR, but has a public insurance financial strength rating, then the Fitch Rating is one rating lower.

6c	If S&P has not issued an ICR or insurance financial strength rating, but has public corporate issue ratings, then the Fitch Rating is calculated using the Fitch IDR Equivalency Table.

7	If both Moody’s and S&P provide a public rating on the issuer or an issue, the lower of the two Fitch Ratings will be used; otherwise the sole public Fitch Rating calculated from Moody’s or S&P will be applied.

if a rating cannot be determined pursuant to clauses (1) through (7) then, (i) at the discretion of the Portfolio Manager, the Fitch Rating may be based on a credit opinion provided by Fitch, and in connection therewith, the Issuer, the Portfolio Manager on behalf of the Issuer or the Obligor of such Collateral Obligation may, prior to or within thirty (30) days after the acquisition of such Collateral Obligation, apply to Fitch for a credit opinion (which shall be the Fitch Rating of such Collateral Obligation) and a recovery rating with respect to such Collateral Obligation; provided that, until the receipt from Fitch of such credit opinion, such Collateral Obligation will have a Fitch Rating of (x) “B-” if the Portfolio Manager certifies to the Collateral Trustee that it believes that the credit opinion will be at least equal to such rating, or (y) otherwise, the rating specified as applicable thereto by Fitch pending receipt of such credit opinion; provided further that, such credit opinion shall expire 12 months after the acquisition of such Collateral Obligation, following which, such Collateral Obligation shall have a Fitch Rating of “CCC” unless, during such 12-month period, the Issuer applies for renewal of such credit opinion, in which case the rating provided in connection with such credit opinion will continue to be the Fitch Rating of such Collateral Obligation until Fitch has confirmed or revised such credit opinion, upon which such confirmed or revised credit opinion will be the Fitch Rating of such Collateral Obligation; or (ii) the Issuer may assign a Fitch Rating of “CCC” or lower to such Collateral Obligation which is not in default; provided, that if any rating described above has a negative rating watch status, the Fitch Rating will be the rating as determined above, adjusted down by one sub-category; provided, further, that if the Fitch Rating determined pursuant to any of clauses (1) through (8) above would cause the Collateral obligation to be a Defaulted Obligation pursuant to clause (d) of the definition of “Defaulted Obligation” due to Fitch, S&P or Moody’s rating on which such Fitch Rating is based being adjusted down one or more sub-categories, the Fitch Rating of such Collateral Obligation shall be the Fitch, S&P or Moody’s rating on which such Fitch Rated was based without making such adjustment.

Fitch Test Matrix

Subject to the provisions provided below, the Portfolio Manager will have the option to elect which of the cases set forth in the matrix below (the "Fitch Test Matrix") shall be applicable for purposes of the Maximum Fitch Rating Factor Test, the Minimum Weighted Average Fitch Recovery Rate Test and the Minimum Fitch Floating Spread Test. For any given case:

(a) the applicable value for determining satisfaction of the Maximum Fitch Rating Factor Test will be the value set forth in the column header (or linear interpolation between two adjacent columns, as applicable) of the row-column combination in the Fitch Test Matrix selected by the Portfolio Manager;

(a) the applicable value for determining satisfaction of the Minimum Fitch Floating Spread Test will be the percentage set forth in the row header (or linear interpolation between two adjacent rows as applicable) of the row-column combination in the Fitch Test Matrix selected by the Portfolio Manager; and

(b) the applicable value for determining satisfaction of the Minimum Weighted Average Fitch Recovery Rate Test will be the value in the intersection cell (or linear interpolation between two adjacent rows and/or two adjacent columns, as applicable) of the row-column combination in the Fitch Test Matrix selected by the Portfolio Manager in relation to (a) and (b) above.

On or prior to the Refinancing Date, the Portfolio Manager will be required to elect which case shall apply initially by written notice to the Issuer and Fitch. Thereafter, on two Business Days' notice to the Issuer and Fitch, the Portfolio Manager may elect to have a different case apply, provided that the Maximum Fitch Rating Factor Test, the Minimum Weighted Average Fitch Recovery Rate Test and the Minimum Fitch Floating Spread Test applicable to the case to which the Portfolio Manager desires to change are satisfied after giving effect to such change or, in the case of any tests that are not satisfied, the Issuer's level of compliance with such tests is improved after giving effect to the application of the different case.
