The Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of a typewritten Note or Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, as the initial Clearing Agency, or its custodian, by or on behalf of the Issuing Entity, or in the case of Retained Notes, at the Depositor’s option, as Definitive Notes delivered to the Depositor or its representative. Such Book-Entry Note or Notes shall be registered on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Note Owner shall receive a Definitive Note representing such Note Owner’s interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.12. Unless and until the Definitive Notes have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.12:

(a) the provisions of this Section 2.10 shall be in full force and effect;

(b) the Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of such Notes and shall have no obligation to the Note Owners;

(c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.10 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 2.10 shall control;

(d) the rights of the Note Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Clearing Agency or the Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.12, the initial Clearing Agency shall make book-entry transfers between the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on such Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants, pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement; and

(e) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has (i) received instructions to such effect from Note Owners or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes; and (ii) delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

Section 2.11 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.12, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Noteholders to the Clearing Agency and shall have no other obligation to the Note Owners.

Section 2.12 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Administrator advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Notes and the Issuing Entity is unable to locate a qualified successor; (ii) the Administrator, at its option, advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency; or (iii)

after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Note Owners representing beneficial interests aggregating at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class advise the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of the Note Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Note Owners and the Indenture Trustee of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Note or Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuing Entity shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Issuing Entity, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders. The Issuing Entity represents that the Notes are of the type of debt instruments where payments under such debt instruments may be accelerated by reason of prepayments of other obligations securing such debt instruments.

Section 2.13 Depositor as Noteholder. The Depositor in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes of any Class and may otherwise deal with the Issuing Entity or its affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Depositor.

Section 2.14 Tax Treatment.

(a) The Depositor and the Indenture Trustee, by entering into this Indenture, and the Noteholders, by acquiring any Note or interest therein (except a Note or interest therein acquired by the Depositor or other person considered for U.S. federal income tax purposes the issuer of such Note), (i) express their intention that the Notes qualify under applicable tax law as indebtedness secured by the Collateral, and (ii) unless otherwise required by appropriate taxing authorities, agree to treat the Notes as indebtedness secured by the Collateral for the purpose of federal income taxes (to the extent the Notes are treated as beneficially owned by a person other than the Issuing Entity), state and local income and franchise taxes, and any other taxes imposed upon, measured by or based upon gross or net income.

(b) Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, agrees to provide to the Indenture Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Issuing Entity, as applicable, the Noteholder Tax Identification Information and, to the extent FATCA Withholding Tax is applicable, the Noteholder FATCA Information.

(c) Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, agrees that the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent on behalf of the Issuing Entity has the right to withhold any amounts of interest (properly withholdable under law and without any corresponding gross-up) payable to a Noteholder or holder of an interest in a Note that fails to comply with the requirements of Section 2.14(b).

(d) Each Noteholder or Note Owner acknowledges and represents that it is not a member of an “expanded group” (within the meaning of the regulations issued under Section 385 of the Code) that includes a domestic corporation (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) if such domestic corporation, directly or indirectly (through one or more entities that are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as partnerships, disregarded entities, or grantor trusts), owns 80% or more of the capital or profits of the Issuing Entity.

(e) Each Noteholder or Note Owner represents and agrees that (A) if it is acting as a nominee or in a similar capacity, represents and agrees that no beneficial owner for which it is acting as a nominee owns less than the minimum denomination for such Note and (B) it does not and will not beneficially own a Note (or any beneficial interest therein) in an amount that is less than the minimum denomination for such Note.

(f) For the Class XS Notes, the Class E Notes and the Class N Notes, each Noteholder or Note Owner or beneficial owner of such Notes, represents and agrees that (A) either (I) it is not and will not become for U.S. federal income tax purposes a partnership, subchapter S corporation or grantor trust (or a disregarded entity the single owner of which is any of the foregoing) (each such entity a “Flow-Through Entity”) or (II) if it is or becomes a Flow-Through Entity, then (x) none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such Flow-Through Entity has or ever will have more than 50% of the value of its interest in such Flow-Through Entity attributable to the interest of such Flow-Through Entity in the Notes, other interest (direct or indirect) in the Issuing Entity, or any interest created under this Indenture and (y) it is not and will not be a principal purpose of the arrangement involving the investment of such Flow-Through Entity in any Note to permit any partnership to satisfy the 100 partner limitation of Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations necessary for such partnership not to be classified as a publicly traded partnership under the Code, and (B) it will not transfer such Notes to a Flow-Through Entity (other than a Flow-Through Entity described in subpart (A)(II) above).

(g) Each Noteholder or Note Owner or beneficial owner of a Note, represents and agrees that it will not take any action that could cause, and will not omit to take any action, which omission could cause, the Issuing Entity to become taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(h) Each Noteholder or Note Owner agrees that any purported transfer of any Note or any beneficial interest in a Note that is not made in accordance with the restrictions set forth herein will be null and void from the beginning and will not be given effect for any purpose thereunder.

(i) Upon request from the Indenture Trustee or Paying Agent, the Administrator will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such additional information that it may have to assist the Indenture Trustee in making any withholdings or informational reports.

Section 2.15 Special Terms Applicable to the Class E Notes, the Class N Notes, the Class XS Notes.

(c) Each of the Class E Notes, the Class N Notes and the Class XS Notes shall bear a legend to the effect set forth in subsection (b) above.

The Issuing Entity, at the direction of the Depositor or the Administrator, may elect to register, or cause the registration of, the Class E Notes, the Class N Notes and the Class XS Notes under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, in which case the Issuing Entity shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar such Opinions of Counsel, Officer’s Certificates and other information as determined by the Depositor as necessary to effect such registration.

Section 3.7 Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables.

(b) Either of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by any such person shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, as applicable.

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that unless otherwise notified by an Authorized Officer of the Issuing Entity, the Administrator shall be entitled to provide notices and directions on behalf of, and otherwise act for or on behalf of, the Issuing Entity for all purposes under this Indenture, and, unless otherwise specified herein, each such party shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice or direction received from an Authorized Officer of the Administrator as having been originated by the Issuing Entity.

(e) material default in the observance or performance of any other representation or warranty of the Issuing Entity made in this Indenture (other than a default the observance or performance of which is specifically dealt with elsewhere in this list of defaults) and such default shall continue or not be cured for a grace period of sixty (60) consecutive days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail to the Issuing Entity by the Indenture Trustee, or to the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, a written notice specifying such breach of representation or warranty and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder;

(f) the filing of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the Issuing Entity or any substantial part of the Collateral in an involuntary case under any applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuing Entity or for any substantial part of the Collateral, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the Issuing Entity’s affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; or

(g) the commencement by the Issuing Entity of a voluntary case under any applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or the consent by the Issuing Entity to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or the consent by the Issuing Entity to the appointment or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuing Entity or for any substantial part of the Collateral, or the making by the Issuing Entity of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure by the Issuing Entity generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of action by the Issuing Entity in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will be no Event of Default where an Event of Default would otherwise exist under clauses (a), (b) and (c) above for a period of an additional ten Business Days or under clauses (d) and (e) for a period of an additional 30 days if the delay or failure giving rise to the Event of Default was caused by an act of God or other similar occurrence.

The Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, within five (5) Business Days after learning of the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an officer’s certificate of any event which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of Default, its status and what action the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, as applicable, is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

Section 5.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

(a) If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, declare all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Issuing Entity (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Noteholders) setting forth the Event of Default or Events of Default, and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

(b) If the Notes have been declared immediately due and payable following an Event of Default and before a judgment or decree for payment of the amount due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article V, the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, by written notice to the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency, may waive all Defaults set forth in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(a) and rescind and annul such declaration of acceleration and its consequences; provided, that no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or affect any other Default or impair any right consequent thereto; and provided further, that if the Indenture Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such Proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of such rescission and annulment or for any other reason, or such Proceedings shall have been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee, then and in every such case, the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity and the Noteholders, as the case may be, shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity and the Noteholders, as the case may be, shall continue as though no such Proceedings had been commenced.

Section 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee.

(a) The Issuing Entity covenants that if an Event of Default occurs and such Event of Default has not been waived pursuant to Section 5.12 (or rescinded pursuant to Section 5.2(b)), the Issuing Entity shall, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the ratable benefit of the Noteholders in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amounts, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal, at the rate borne by the Notes and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest 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 Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

(b) If the Issuing Entity shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, may enforce the same against the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust and may collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

(c) If the Notes have been declared to be immediately due and payable following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.4, and shall at the direction of the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee or Holders of such Notes shall deem most effective 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 Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by applicable law.

(d) If there shall be pending, relative to the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Collateral, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or if a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or their property or such other Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture 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:

(i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor trustee, except as a result of negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

(ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings;

(iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and

(iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, their creditors and their property; and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee for application in accordance with the priorities set forth in the Transaction Documents, and, if the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor trustee except as a result of negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

(f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the reasonable expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in accordance with the priorities set forth in the Transaction Documents.

(g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

Section 5.4 Remedies; Priorities.

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Notes have been accelerated under Section 5.2(a), the Indenture Trustee may, or at the written direction of the majority of the Holders of the Notes of the Controlling Class, shall do one or more of the following (subject to Sections 5.3 and 5.5):

(i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then due and payable on the Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuing Entity and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

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

(iii) 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 Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders;

(iv) sell or otherwise liquidate the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; and

(v) cause the Grantor Trust, by means of a written direction, to sell or otherwise liquidate the Receivables or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law;

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Collateral or cause the Grantor Trust to liquidate the Receivables at the direction of the Noteholders following an Event of Default and acceleration of the Notes, unless (i) (A) the Holders of all of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes consent thereto or (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full the principal of and the accrued interest on the Notes, at the date of such sale or liquidation or (C) (x) there has been an Event of Default under Section 5.1(a), Section 5.1(b) or Section 5.1(c) or otherwise arising from a failure to make a required payment of principal on any Notes, (y) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Collateral will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as and when they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and (z) the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of Holders of 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes and (ii) ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice of sale or liquidation has been given to the Rating Agencies by the Depositor, provided,

however, that the Depositor shall have received such notice from the Indenture Trustee at least two (2) Business Days prior thereto. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral or the assets of the Grantor Trust, as applicable, for such purpose; provided, however, that prior to the exercise of the right to sell all or any portion of the Collateral as provided herein, the Indenture Trustee shall provide a notice in writing to the Issuing Entity (with a copy to the Grantor Trust, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Depositor and the Owner Trustee) (the “Event of Default Sale Notice”) of its intention to sell all or any portion of the Collateral (the part to be sold being the “Subject Estate”), and if the Subject Estate is less than all of the Collateral, the portion of the Collateral to be sold. The Indenture Trustee shall not consummate any sale until at least seven (7) Business Days after the Event of Default Sale Notice has been given to the Issuing Entity (with a copy to the Grantor Trust and the Depositor).

(b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, it shall, or shall direct the Paying Agent to, pay out such money or property together with all Available Funds and all amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, the Note Distribution Account, the Reserve Account and the Class N Reserve Account in accordance with, and in the order of priority set forth in, Section 2.7(f) hereof.

Section 5.5 Optional Preservation of the Collateral. If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.2 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled in accordance with Section 5.2(b), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to take and maintain possession of the Collateral and continue to apply the proceeds thereof as if there had been no declaration of acceleration; provided, however, that the Available Funds shall be applied in accordance with such declaration of acceleration in the manner specified in Section 2.7(f). It is the intent of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and the Indenture Trustee shall take such intent into account when determining whether or not to take and maintain possession of the Collateral. In determining whether to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral for such purpose.

Section 5.6 Limitation of Suits. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, 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 written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

(c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

(d) the Indenture Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and

(e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such sixty (60) day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount 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 or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders of Notes or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable (on the basis of the respective aggregate amount of principal and interest, respectively, due and unpaid on the Notes held by each Noteholder) and common benefit of all holders of Notes. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 5.6, each and every Noteholder shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

If the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes, each representing less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, the Indenture Trustee shall follow the request of the group of Holders of Notes representing the highest percentage of Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

Section 5.7 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture in accordance with the terms thereof, and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 5.8 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder 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 Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally to their respective former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.9 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders 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 5.10 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

Section 5.11 Control by Noteholders. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall have the right to direct in writing the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that:

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

(b) subject to the express terms of Section 5.4, any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Collateral or cause the Grantor Trust to sell or liquidate the Receivables shall be by the Holders of Notes representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes;

(c) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5 have been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.5, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee by Holders of Notes representing less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes to sell or liquidate the Collateral or cause the Grantor Trust to sell or liquidate the Receivables shall be of no force and effect; and

(d) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; provided, however, that, subject to Section 6.1, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines might cause it to incur any liability (a) with respect to which the Indenture Trustee shall have reasonable grounds to believe that adequate indemnity against such liability is not assured to it and (b) which might materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

Section 5.12 Waiver of Past Defaults.

(a) Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.2, the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a Default (i) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note (other than the Class XS Notes). In the case of any such waiver, the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

(b) Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 5.13 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any Proceeding for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any Proceeding against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such Proceeding of an undertaking to pay the costs of such Proceeding, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such Proceeding, 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 5.13 shall not apply to:

(a) any Proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee;

(b) any Proceeding instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class; or

(c) any Proceeding instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

Section 5.14 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Each of the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it 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 wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture. Each of the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 5.15 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the Lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral or upon any of the assets of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.4(b).

Section 5.16 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.

(a) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at the Issuing Entity’s expense, each of the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust agrees to take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Depositor of its obligations to the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust under or in connection with the Trust Agreement, the Servicer of its obligations to the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust under or in connection with the Servicing Agreement, by the Seller of its obligations under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, by the Depositor of its limited repurchase obligations under or in connection with the Receivables Transfer Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust under or in connection with the Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the Receivables Transfer Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller, the Depositor or the Servicer and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller, the Depositor or the Servicer of their respective obligations under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Receivables Transfer Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and, at the written direction of the Holders of the majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust against the Servicer under or in connection with the Servicing Agreement, against the Seller under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement and against the Depositor under or in connection with the Receivables Transfer Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Servicer, the Seller or the Depositor of each of their obligations to the Issuing Entity thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Servicing Agreement, the Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Receivables Transfer Agreement and any right of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust to take such action shall be suspended.

ARTICLE VI

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

Section 6.1 Duties of Indenture Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise 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.

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture or any other Transaction Document against the Indenture Trustee; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, or its own bad faith, except that:

(i) this Section 6.1(c) does not limit the effect of Section 6.1(b);

(ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to any provision of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document.

(e) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Indenture, the Servicing Agreement or the Trust Agreement.

(f) No provision of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document (including after the occurrence of an Event of Default) shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayments of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(g) Every provision of this Indenture and each other Transaction Document relating to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and to the provisions of the TIA.

(h) The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the acts or omissions of the Issuing Entity, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Grantor Trust, any other party to any of the Transaction Documents, including as a result of any other party’s failure to comply with Regulation RR.

(i) In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any damages in the nature of special, indirect or consequential damages, however styled, including lost profits.

Section 6.2 Rights of Indenture Trustee.

(a) The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate or re-calculate, certify or verify any information, statement, representation or warranty or any fact or matter stated in any such document and may conclusively rely as to the truth, content and accuracy of the statements and correctness of the opinions expressed therein.

(b) Except as otherwise set forth in Section 7.5 of this Agreement and Section 3.1(d) of the Receivables Transfer Agreement, before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel (at the cost of the party requesting the Indenture Trustee to act or refrain from acting). The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or Affiliates or a custodian or nominee, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed with due care by it hereunder.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

(e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(f) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture or any other Transaction Document, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction.

(g) The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document unless requested in writing to do so by a majority of the Controlling Class; provided, however, that if the Indenture Trustee determines that payment within a reasonable time of such costs, expenses and losses or liabilities is not reasonably assured to it, the Indenture Trustee may require indemnity or security satisfactory to it from the Noteholders requesting such an investigation, against such costs, expenses and losses or liabilities as a condition to proceeding with such investigation.

(h) The Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any event or information, including any default or Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event, or be required to act upon any event or information, including any default or Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event (including the sending of any notice), unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee actually knows of or receives written notice of such event or information and shall have no duty to take any action to determine whether any default, or Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event or event has occurred. Absent a Responsible Officer actually knowing of or receiving written notice in accordance with this Section, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that no such event, default or Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event has occurred. Publicly available information does not constitute actual or constructive knowledge or notice to the Indenture Trustee.

(i) The Indenture Trustee shall not be imputed with the knowledge of, or information possessed or obtained by, the Collateral Custodian and knowledge of the Collateral Custodian shall not be attributed or imputed to the Indenture Trustee, or any affiliate, line of business or other division of Wells Fargo (and vice versa).

(j) Any delays in or failure by the Indenture Trustee in the performance of any obligations hereunder shall be excused if and to the extent caused by any force majeure event.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or any other Transaction Document, the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to any action that is not in accordance with Applicable Laws.

(l) The right of the Indenture Trustee to perform any permissive or discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture or any related document shall not be construed as a duty.

(m) The Indenture Trustee is not required to ensure that the Issuing Entity’s security interest in the Trust Estate is valid or enforceable, or to monitor status of a lien or performance of the Trust Estate.

(n) The Indenture Trustee shall have no duty to see to, or be responsible for the correctness or accuracy of, any recording, filing or depositing of this Indenture or any agreement referred to herein, or any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refilling or re-depositing of any thereof.

(o) The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with laws, regulations and executive orders of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof as are in effect from time to time applicable to financial institutions relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act (Pub. L. 107-56) and regulations promulgated by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (collectively, “AML Law”), the Indenture Trustee is required to obtain, verify, and record information relating to individuals and entities that establish a business relationship or open an account with the Indenture Trustee. Each party hereby agrees that it shall provide the Indenture Trustee with such identifying information and documentation as the Indenture Trustee may request in writing from time to time in order to enable the Indenture Trustee to comply with all applicable requirements of AML Law.

(p) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Indenture Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in each of its capacities hereunder, including its capacity under Section 4.4 hereof, and in connection with the performance of any of its duties or obligations under any of the Transaction Documents.

(q) For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether any breach of representations or warranty or document defect constitutes a breach or defect or a material breach or defect, or the enforcement of any repurchase obligation.

Section 6.3 Indenture Trustee May Own Notes. The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuing Entity, the Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall comply with Sections 6.10 and 6.11. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.

Section 6.4 Indenture Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of any Transaction Document, including this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuing Entity’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, it shall not have any responsibility to monitor or cause the Issuing Entity to comply with Regulation RR and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust in the Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

Section 6.5 Notice of Events of Default. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge or has received written notice thereof, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of the Event of Default within ten (10) calendar days after it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

Section 6.6 Reports by Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder the documents and information set forth in Article VII and, in addition, all such information with respect to the Notes as may be required to enable such Holder to prepare its federal and State income tax returns.

Section 6.7 Compensation; Indemnity.

(a) The Issuing Entity shall pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuing Entity shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services; provided, however, that the Issuing Entity need not reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any expense incurred through the Indenture Trustee’s willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, external counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuing Entity shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee for, and hold it and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs, and any loss or expense incurred in connection with a successful defense, in whole or in part, of any claim that the Indenture Trustee breached its standard of care or any enforcement (including any successful action, claim or suit brought) by the Indenture Trustee of any indemnification of the Issuing Entity) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder or under any other Transaction Document; provided, however, that the Issuing Entity need not indemnify the Indenture Trustee for, or hold it harmless against, any such loss, liability or expense incurred through the Indenture Trustee’s willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuing Entity and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Any failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuing Entity and the Administrator shall not, however, relieve the Issuing Entity of its obligations hereunder. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuing Entity, shall defend any such claim. The Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel in connection with the defense of any such claim, and the Issuing Entity, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel.

(b) The Issuing Entity’s payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall survive the discharge or assignment of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of any party. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f) with respect to the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

Section 6.8 Replacement of Indenture Trustee.

(a) The Indenture Trustee may at any time give notice of its intent to resign by so notifying the Issuing Entity; provided, however, that no such resignation shall become effective and the Indenture Trustee shall not resign prior to the time set forth in Section 6.8(c). The Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee upon at least thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. Such resignation or removal shall become effective in accordance with Section 6.8(c). The Issuing Entity shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

(i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

(ii) a Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to the Indenture Trustee;

(iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or

(iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

(b) If the Indenture Trustee gives notice of its intent to resign or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuing Entity shall promptly appoint and designate a successor Indenture Trustee.

(c) A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment and designation to the retiring Indenture Trustee and the other parties to this Indenture. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee.

(d) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) calendar days after the Indenture Trustee gives notice of its intent to resign or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Issuing Entity or the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment and designation of a successor Indenture Trustee (at the expense of the Issuing Entity).

(e) If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

Section 6.9 Merger or Consolidation of Indenture Trustee.

(a) Any Person into which the Indenture Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Indenture Trustee, shall be the successor of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture; provided, however, that such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 6.11, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Indenture, anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) If at the time such successor or successors by merger or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee. In all such cases such certificate of authentication shall have the same full force as is provided anywhere in the Notes or herein with respect to the certificate of authentication of the Indenture Trustee.

Section 6.10 Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Collateral, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to the Collateral, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate indenture trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor indenture trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate indenture trustee shall be required under Section 6.8.

(b) Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

(i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Collateral or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;

(ii) no trustee (including the Indenture Trustee, separate trustees and co-trustees) hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act, omission or appointment of any other trustee (including separate trustees and co-trustees) hereunder; and

(iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

(d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section 6.11 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Indenture Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Indenture Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition and (unless waived by the Rating Agencies) it shall have a long term unsecured debt rating that falls within an investment grade category by the Rating Agencies. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA § Section 310(b), including the optional provision permitted by the second sentence of TIA § 310(b)(9); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities of the Issuing Entity are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA § 310(b)(1) are met.

Section 6.12 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuing Entity. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

Section 6.13 Representations and Warranties of Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee represents and warrants as of the Closing Date that:

(d) the execution, delivery and performance by the Indenture Trustee of this Indenture shall not require the authorization, consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the filing or registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any governmental authority or agency regulating the banking and corporate trust activities of the Indenture Trustee; and

(e) this Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Indenture Trustee, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Section 6.14 Indenture Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as Indenture Trustee.

ACCOUNTS, DISBURSEMENTS AND RELEASES

Section 8.1 Collection of Money. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent shall apply all such money received by it as provided in this Indenture. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, if any default occurs in the making of any payment or performance under any agreement or instrument that is part of the Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate Proceedings. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture and any right to proceed thereafter as provided in Article V.

Section 8.2 Designated Accounts; Payments.

(a) Establishment of Other Accounts.

(i) The Indenture Trustee shall establish, initially with itself, the Reserve Account, the Collection Account and the Note Distribution Account, each in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and, solely in the case of the Collection Account and the Reserve Account, the Certificateholders. The Indenture Trustee shall establish, initially with itself, the Class N Reserve Account in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Class N Noteholders.

(ii) The Collection Account, the Note Distribution Account, the Reserve Account and the Class N Reserve Account shall be Eligible Deposit Accounts initially established with the Indenture Trustee as the Account Holder. Funds deposited in each of the Designated Accounts (including amounts, if any, which the Servicer is required to remit daily to the Collection Account) shall be invested in the Investment Fund. Such investments shall, in each case, mature or, if such Eligible Investment does not mature, be liquidated as set forth in the definition of “Eligible Investments”; provided that neither the Administrator nor

the Indenture Trustee shall have the power or right to change or alter the particular Eligible Investments identified in the definition of “Investment Fund” with respect to which such funds are invested; and provided further that the Administrator shall provide written notice to the Indenture Trustee, promptly upon any investment in each of the Designated Accounts ceasing to be an Eligible Investment, and such notification shall include an instruction to the Indenture Trustee to withdraw the funds from the ineligible investment and to deposit such funds into the applicable Eligible Investment set forth in the definition of “Investment Fund.” The Administrator shall have no power or right whatsoever to change or alter any of the initial specifications set forth in the definition of “Investment Fund”; provided thatif the short-term debt obligations of such Account Holder cease to have the Required Deposit Rating (such occurrence, an “Account Status Event”) (i) the Administrator shall provide written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of knowledge of such Account Status Event to the Indenture Trustee or other Account Holder and shall include the proposed Account Holder information in such notice; (ii) the Administrator shall open any necessary accounts at such proposed Account Holder within sixty (60) calendar days of knowledge of such Account Status Event; and (iii) the Administrator shall provide written notice to the Indenture Trustee or other Account Holder instructing the Account Holder to transfer the Designated Accounts to another Account Holder that is an Eligible Institution; and provided further that should the Account Holder inform the Administrator or the Indenture Trustee that no further investments may be made with respect to a specific Eligible Investment, then any additional funds shall be invested by that same Account Holder in an Eligible Investment in accordance with the definition of “Investment Fund.” Investments in Eligible Investments shall be made in the name of the Indenture Trustee or its nominee, and such investments shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement. Investment Earnings on funds deposited in the Reserve Account, the Class N Reserve Account and the Collection Account shall be payable to the Depositor as set forth on the Servicer’s Certificate. Each Account Holder holding a Designated Account as provided in this Section 8.2(a), shall be a “Securities Intermediary.” If a Securities Intermediary shall be a Person other than the Indenture Trustee, the Administrator shall obtain the express agreement of such Person to the obligations of the Securities Intermediary set forth in this Section 8.2.

(iii) With respect to the Designated Account Property, the Account Holder agrees, by its acceptance hereof, that:

(A) The Designated Accounts are accounts to which Financial Assets will be credited.

(B) All securities or other property underlying any Financial Assets credited to the Designated Accounts shall be registered in the name of the Securities Intermediary, indorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to any of the Designated Accounts be registered in the name of the Issuing Entity, the Servicer or the Seller, payable to the order of the Issuing Entity, the Servicer or the Seller or specially indorsed to the Issuing Entity, the Servicer or the Seller except to the extent the foregoing have been specially indorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank.

(C) All property delivered to the Securities Intermediary pursuant to this Agreement or the Indenture will be promptly credited to the appropriate Designated Account.

(D) Each item of property (whether investments, investment property, Financial Asset, security, instrument or cash) credited to a Designated Account shall be treated as a “Financial Asset” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the New York UCC.

(E) If at any time the Securities Intermediary shall receive any entitlement order from the Indenture Trustee directing transfer or redemption of any Financial Asset relating to the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the Grantor Trust, the Issuing Entity, the Servicer, the Seller or any other Person.

(F) The Designated Accounts shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, regardless of any provision in any other agreement. For purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction and the Designated Accounts (as well as the Securities Entitlements related thereto) shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. The laws of the State of New York shall govern all issues specified in Article 2(1) of the Hague Securities Convention with respect to each “account agreement” (within the meaning of the Hague Securities Convention) of each Designated Account. The Securities Intermediary shall have at the time of entry of each such account agreement and shall continue to have at all relevant times one or more offices (within the meaning of the Hague Securities Convention) in the United States of America which satisfies the criteria provided in Article 4(1)(a) or (b) of the Hague Securities Convention.

(G) The Securities Intermediary has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with any other person relating to the Designated Accounts and/or any Financial Assets credited thereto pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the New York UCC) of such other person and the Securities Intermediary has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with the Issuing Entity, the Seller, the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Securities Intermediary to comply with entitlement orders as set forth in Section 8.2(a)(iii)(E).

(H) Except for the claims and interest of the Indenture Trustee and of the Issuing Entity in the Designated Accounts, the Securities Intermediary knows of no claim to, or interest in, the Designated Accounts or in any Financial Asset credited thereto. If any other Person asserts any Lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against the Designated Accounts or in any Financial Asset carried therein, the Securities Intermediary will promptly notify the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Issuing Entity thereof.

(I) The Securities Intermediary will make available electronically, copies of all statements, confirmations and other correspondence concerning the Designated Accounts and any Designated Account Property simultaneously to each of the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee.

(J) Any Designated Account Property that constitutes Physical Property shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be held, pending maturity or disposition, solely by the Indenture Trustee, or by a Securities Intermediary acting solely for the Indenture Trustee, as collateral agent.

(iv) The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in and to all funds on deposit from time to time in the Designated Accounts and in all proceeds thereof. The Designated Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders and the Issuing Entity (as specified herein).

(v) The Administrator shall not direct the Indenture Trustee to make any investment of any funds or to sell any investment held in any of the Designated Accounts unless the security interest granted and perfected in such account shall continue to be perfected in such investment or the proceeds of such sale, in either case without any further action by any Person.

(vi) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Securities Intermediary and each other institution with whom a Designated Account is maintained waives any right of set-off, counterclaim, security interest or bankers’ lien to which it might otherwise be entitled in its individual capacity.

(b) Application of Collections; Additional Deposits.

(i) On or before the Closing Date, the Seller or the Depositor shall deposit the Reserve Account Initial Deposit into the Reserve Account from the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes.

(ii) On or before the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit the Class N Reserve Account Initial Deposit into the Class N Reserve Account from the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes.

Except for those deposits to be made by Servicer under Section 6.1 of the Servicing Agreement, all such deposits shall be made, in immediately available funds, on the Business Day preceding the Determination Date. With respect to deposits to be made by Servicer under Section 6.1 of the Servicing Agreement, such deposits shall be made, in immediately available funds, on the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date.

(iv) On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall transfer from the Reserve Account and deposit in the Note Distribution Account before 12:00 p.m. (New York time) the Reserve Account Draw Amount (if any) for that Distribution Date in accordance with the Servicer’s Certificate.

(v) On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall transfer from the Class N Reserve Account and deposit in the Note Distribution Account before 12:00 p.m. (New York time) the Class N Reserve Account Draw Amount (if any) for that Distribution Date in accordance with the Servicer’s Certificate.

(vi) On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall transfer from the Collection Account to the Servicer, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the Supplemental Servicing Fees and Liquidation Expenses (as set forth on the Servicer’s Certificate) (and any unpaid Supplemental Servicing Fees and Liquidation Expenses from prior periods) during the related Collection Period in accordance with the Servicer’s Certificate.

(vii) On any Distribution Date that the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account together with Available Funds is sufficient to pay all amounts due pursuant to Sections 2.7(b)(i) through (xv) and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Class E Notes, then such amount will be used to repay all such outstanding classes of Notes in full on such Distribution Date.

(c) Distributions. On each Distribution Date, in accordance with the Servicer’s Certificate, the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be distributed to the Noteholders all amounts on deposit in the Note Distribution Account (subject to the Depositor’s rights to Investment Earnings pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(ii) hereof) in the following order of priority and in the amounts determined as described below:

(i) On each Distribution Date, the amount deposited in the Note Distribution Account in respect of interest on the Notes shall be applied in the following order of priority, to the extent of remaining funds after all earlier priorities have been satisfied, and any amount so applied shall be paid on such Distribution Date to the holders of Notes of each applicable Class:

All income or other gain (net of losses and investment expenses) from investments of monies deposited in the Collection Account, the Reserve Account or the Class N Reserve Account shall be withdrawn (or caused to be withdrawn) by the Indenture Trustee from such accounts and distributed as provided herein to the Depositor. Each of the Issuing Entity and the Administrator acknowledges that upon its written request and at no additional cost, it has the right to receive notification after the completion of each purchase and sale of Eligible Investments or the Indenture Trustee’s receipt of a broker’s confirmation. Each of the Issuing Entity and the Administrator agrees that such notifications shall not be provided by the Indenture Trustee hereunder, and the Indenture Trustee shall make available, upon request and in lieu of notifications, periodic account statements that reflect such investment activity. No statement need be made available for any account if no activity has occurred in such account during such period.

(b) Subject to Section 6.1(c), the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in any of the Designated Accounts resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in accordance with their terms.

(c) If (i) the Issuing Entity shall have failed to give investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Designated Accounts to the Indenture Trustee by 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee) on any Business Day; or (ii) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.2, or, if such Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default, but amounts collected or receivable from the Collateral are being applied in accordance with Section 5.5 as if there had not been such a declaration; then in each case, funds in the Designated Accounts shall remain uninvested.

Section 8.4 Release of Trust Estate.

The Indenture Trustee shall release such property from the Lien of this Indenture pursuant to this Section 8.4(c) only upon receipt by it of an Issuing Entity Request and an Officer’s Certificate certifying that all conditions precedent to such release have been satisfied.

Section 8.5 Opinion of Counsel. The Indenture Trustee shall receive at least seven (7) calendar days’ notice when requested by the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust to take any action pursuant to Section 8.4(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Indenture Trustee shall also require as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with and such action shall not materially and adversely impair the security for the Secured Obligations or the rights of the Secured Parties in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Collateral. Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action.

(vii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA, and the Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained.

(b) The Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust and, when authorized by an Issuing Entity Order, the Indenture Trustee, may, also without the consent of any of the Noteholders but with prior written notice by the Issuing Entity to the Rating Agencies, at any time and from time to time enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, changing in any manner, or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders under this Indenture; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered to the effect that any amendment pursuant to this Section 9.1 would not cause either of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

(d) The Owner Trustee and the Grantor Trust Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Owner Trustee’s or the Grantor Trust Trustee’s rights, duties, immunities, indemnities or liabilities under this Indenture. No amendment which adversely affects the rights, duties, indemnities, immunities or liabilities of the Owner Trustee or the Grantor Trust Trustee under this Agreement shall be effective without its prior written consent.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no supplemental indenture shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Asset Representations Reviewer if the supplemental indenture would adversely modify the amount or timing of distributions to be made to the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility for determining whether any supplemental indenture would adversely modify the amount or timing of distributions to be made to the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Indenture.

Section 9.2 Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Noteholders.

(a) The Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust and, when authorized by an Issuing Entity Order, the Indenture Trustee, also may, with 10 Business Days prior written notice by the Issuing Entity to each of the Rating Agencies, and with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, changing in any manner, or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note adversely affected thereby:

(i) change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate applicable thereto, or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or any interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

(ii) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences as provided for in this Indenture;

(iii) modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the definition of the term “Outstanding”;

(iv) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes required to direct the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.4 if the proceeds of such sale would be insufficient to pay the principal amount of and accrued but unpaid interest on the Outstanding Notes;

(v) modify any provision of this Section 9.2 to decrease the required minimum percentage necessary to approve any amendments to any provisions of this Indenture or any of the Transaction Documents;

(vi) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due on any Note on any Distribution Date (including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation), or to affect the rights of the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory redemption of the Notes contained therein; or

(vii) 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 Collateral or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the Lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject thereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security afforded by the Lien of this Indenture.

(b) The Indenture Trustee may rely on an Officer’s Certificate and/or an Opinion of Counsel in determining whether or not any Notes would be affected (such that the consent of each Noteholder would be required) by any supplemental indenture proposed pursuant to this Section 9.2 and any such determination shall be binding upon the Holders of all Notes, whether authenticated and delivered thereunder before or after the date upon which such supplemental indenture becomes effective.

(c) It shall be sufficient if an Act of Noteholders approves the substance, but not the form, of any proposed supplemental indenture.

(d) Promptly after the execution by the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.2, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the Noteholders a copy of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered to the effect that any amendment pursuant to this Section 9.2 would not cause either of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

Section 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.2, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture have been satisfied. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Section 9.4 Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust and the Noteholders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

Section 9.5 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Issuing Entity as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or the Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuing Entity, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuing Entity and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes of the same Class.

Section 9.6 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment of this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

REDEMPTION OF NOTES

Section 10.1 Redemption. The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, upon the exercise by the Servicer of its option to purchase the Receivables pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Servicing Agreement. The date on which such redemption shall occur is the Distribution Date following the Optional Purchase Date identified by Servicer in its notice of exercise of such purchase option (the “Redemption Date”). The purchase price for the Notes shall be equal to the applicable Redemption Price. After receipt of such notice from the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Servicing Agreement, the Issuing Entity shall furnish the Rating Agencies notice of such redemption. If the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 10.1, the Servicer or the Issuing Entity shall furnish notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee not later than ten (10) calendar days prior to the Redemption Date and the Indenture Trustee (based on such notice) shall withdraw from the Collection Account and deposit into the Note Distribution Account, on the Redemption Date, the aggregate Redemption Price of the Notes, whereupon all such Notes shall be due and payable on the Redemption Date.

Section 10.2 Form of Redemption Notice. Notice of redemption of the Notes under Section 10.1 shall be given by the Indenture Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile mailed or transmitted promptly following receipt of notice from the Issuing Entity or the Servicer pursuant to Section 10.1, but not later than five (5) calendar days prior to the applicable Redemption Date to each Noteholder of record at such Noteholder’s address or facsimile number appearing in the Note Register (or otherwise communicate such notice of redemption electronically to the Noteholders).

(a) All notices of redemption shall state:

(i) the Redemption Date;

(ii) the applicable Redemption Price; and

(iii) the place where Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price (which shall be the office or agency of the Issuing Entity to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2).

(b) Notice of redemption of the Notes shall be given by the Indenture Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuing Entity. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Note shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note.

Section 10.3 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. The Notes to be redeemed shall, following notice of redemption as required by Section 10.2, on the Redemption Date cease to be Outstanding for purposes of this Indenture and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the applicable Redemption Price and (unless the Issuing Entity shall default in the payment of such Redemption Price) no interest shall accrue on such Redemption Price for any period after the date to which accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating such Redemption Price.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1 Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc.

(a) Upon any application or request by the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust to the Indenture Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture that requires an application or request hereunder, the Issuing Entity shall, if requested by the Indenture Trustee, furnish to the Indenture Trustee: (i) an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with, (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, and (iii) (if required by the TIA) an Independent Certificate from a firm of certified public accountants meeting the applicable requirements of this Section 11.1, except that, in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

(i) a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto;

(ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(i) Prior to the deposit with the Indenture Trustee of any Collateral or other property or securities that is to be made the basis for the release of any property or securities subject to the Lien of this Indenture, the Issuing Entity shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in Section 11.1(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each Person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90) calendar days of such deposit) to the Issuing Entity of the Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited.

(ii) Whenever the Issuing Entity is required to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (b)(i) above, the Issuing Entity shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to the Issuing Entity of the property or securities to be so deposited and of all other such securities made on the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then current fiscal year of the Issuing Entity, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and this clause (b)(ii), is 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuing Entity as set forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

(iii) Other than with respect to the release of any Purchased Receivables, whenever any property or securities are to be released from the Lien of this Indenture, the Issuing Entity shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each Person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90) calendar days of such release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that in the opinion of such Person the proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

(iv) Whenever the Issuing Entity is required to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signatory thereof as to the matters described in clause (b)(iii) above, the Issuing Entity shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same matters if the fair value of the property or securities and of all other property, other than Purchased Receivables or Receivables valued at their Principal Balance of the Receivables, or securities released from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement of the then current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates required by clause (b)(iii) above and this clause (b)(iv), equals 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such certificate need not be furnished in the case of any release of property or securities if the fair value thereof as set forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the then Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

(v) Notwithstanding Section 2.9 or any other provision of this Section 11.1, the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, as applicable, may (A) collect, liquidate, sell or otherwise dispose of Receivables as and to the extent permitted or required by the Transaction Documents, (B) make cash payments out of the Designated Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account as and to the extent permitted or required by the Transaction Documents and (C) take any other action not inconsistent with the TIA.

Section 11.2 Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.

(a) 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.

(b) Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuing Entity 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 in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that any certificate, opinion or representation with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based is erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Servicer, the Sponsor, the Depositor, the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or the Administrator, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Sponsor, the Depositor, the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust or the Administrator, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

(c) 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.

(d) Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuing Entity shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuing Entity’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuing Entity to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI.

Section 11.3 Acts of Noteholders.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders or a Class of Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust and the Issuing Entity, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.3.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

Section 11.4 Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee, Grantor Trust, Issuing Entity and Rating Agencies. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, instruction, consent, waiver, Act of Noteholders or other document is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

(a) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuing Entity shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office;

(b) the Grantor Trust Trustee by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and either sent by electronic facsimile transmission (with hard copy to follow via first class mail) or mailed, by certified mail, return receipt requested to the Grantor Trust Trustee at the address specified in Part III of Appendix A to the Receivables Purchase Agreement;

(d) the Grantor Trust by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and either sent by electronic facsimile transmission (with hard copy to follow via first class mail) or mailed, by certified mail, return receipt requested to the Grantor Trust and the Grantor Trust Trustee each at the address specified in Part III of Appendix A to the Receivables Purchase Agreement; or

(e) the Issuing Entity by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and either sent by electronic facsimile transmission (with hard copy to follow via first class mail) or mailed, by certified mail, return receipt requested to the Issuing Entity and the Owner Trustee each at the address specified in Part III of Appendix A to the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

The Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall likewise promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust.

Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be delivered as specified in Part III of Appendix A to the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

Section 11.5 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

(a) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if it is in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. If notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given regardless of whether such notice is in fact actually received.

(b) 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 Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

(c) In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event of Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

(d) Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Event of Default.

(e) In the case of Book-Entry Notes, if the Note Depository allows for delivery of notice and other communications by electronic means, mail shall mean such electronic means, unless otherwise required by law.

Section 11.6 Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuing Entity may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuing Entity shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.

Section 11.7 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

The provisions of TIA §§ 310 through 317 that impose duties on any person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture, whether or not physically contained herein.

Section 11.8 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the table of contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 11.9 Successors and Assigns.

(a) All covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuing Entity and the Grantor Trust shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

(b) All covenants and agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 11.10 Severability. 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 of this Indenture and the Notes shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 11.11 Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, and to the extent expressly provided herein, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, any other party secured hereunder and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Trust Estate, each of which shall be considered to be a third party beneficiary hereof. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Indenture, but only to the extent that it has any rights specified herein. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no other Person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

Section 11.12 Legal Holidays. If the date on which any payment is due 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 date on which nominally due, and except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

Section 11.13 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, AND THE

OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND EACH HOLDER BY ACCEPTANCE OF A NOTE AGREES TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PARTIES HERETO AND EACH HOLDER BY ACCEPTANCE OF A NOTE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 11.14 Counterparts. This Indenture 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 Uniform Commercial Code (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; provided, however, that any documentation with respect to transfer of the Notes or other securities presented to the Indenture Trustee or any transfer agent must contain original documents with manually executed signatures.

Section 11.15 Recording of Indenture. If this Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuing Entity and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

Section 11.16 No Recourse. No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, Grantor Trust Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against:

For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuing Entity hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Grantor Trust hereunder, the Grantor Trust Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Grantor Trust Agreement.

The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder and Note Owner, by accepting a Note (or interest therein) issued hereunder, hereby covenant and agree that they shall not, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the termination of this Indenture, acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity under any federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity or any substantial part of the property of such entity, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity under any federal or State bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

The Issuing Entity agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it shall permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee, during the Issuing Entity’s normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports, and other papers of the Issuing Entity, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuing Entity’s affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuing Entity’s officers, employees and Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. The Indenture Trustee shall and shall cause its representatives to hold in confidence all such information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law to a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a subpoena or valid court order or to its regulators and any authorized governmental agency in connection with any audit or regulatory examination (and all reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to the extent that the Indenture Trustee may reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder.

Section 11.19 Subordination. Each Noteholder by accepting a Note (or any interest therein) acknowledges that such Person’s Note (or interest therein) represents an obligation of the Issuing Entity only and does not represent interests in or obligations of the Grantor Trust, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse, either directly or indirectly, may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated in the Transaction Documents. Each Noteholder by the acceptance of a Note (or beneficial interest therein) agrees that except as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents, in the event of nonpayment of any amounts with respect to the Notes, each Noteholder shall have no claim against any of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or any Affiliate for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom. In the event that any of the covenants above of each Noteholder is prohibited by, or declared illegal or otherwise unenforceable against any such Noteholder under applicable law by any court or other authority of competent jurisdiction, and, as a result, a Noteholder is deemed to have an interest in any assets of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor other than the Issuing Entity, each Noteholder agrees that (i) its claim against any such other assets shall be, and hereby is, subject and subordinate in all respects to the rights of other Persons to whom rights in the other assets have been expressly granted, including to the payment in full of all amounts owing to such entitled Persons, and (ii) the covenant set forth in the preceding clause (i) constitutes a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of, and subject to, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 11.20 Concerning the Owner Trustee. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (a) this Agreement is executed and delivered by BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware (“BNY Delaware”), not individually or personally but solely as Owner Trustee of the Issuing Entity and Grantor Trust Trustee of the Grantor Trust, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuing Entity or Grantor Trust, as applicable, is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by BNY Delaware but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuing Entity or Grantor Trust, as applicable, (c) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on BNY Delaware, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein of the Issuing Entity or the Grantor Trust, respectively, as applicable, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under the parties hereto, (d) BNY Delaware has made no investigation as to the accuracy or completeness of any representations and warranties made by the Issuing Entity or Grantor Trust, as applicable, in this Agreement and (e) under no circumstances shall BNY Delaware be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuing Entity or Grantor Trust, as applicable, or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuing Entity or Grantor Trust, as applicable, under this Agreement.

Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of this Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in this Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuing Entity, the Grantor Trust, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Grantor Trust Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) the Depositor or any other owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Grantor Trust Trustee in their individual capacities, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Grantor Trust Trustee in their individual capacities, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity.

Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of this Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in this Note, covenants and agrees that by accepting the benefits of the Indenture such Noteholder or Note Owner shall not, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the termination of the Indenture, acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity under any federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Depositor, the Grantor Trust or the Issuing Entity or any substantial part of the property of either of them, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Depositor or the Issuing Entity under any federal or State bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

Each Noteholder or holder of an interest in this Note, by acceptance of this Note or such interest therein, agrees to provide to the Indenture Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Issuing Entity, as applicable, the Noteholder Tax Identification Information and, to the extent FATCA Withholding Tax is applicable, the Noteholder FATCA Information. In addition, each Noteholder or holder of an interest in this Note, by acceptance of this Note or such interest therein, agrees that the Indenture Trustee has the right to withhold any amounts of interest (properly withholdable under law and without any corresponding gross-up) payable to a Noteholder or holder of an interest in this Note that fails to comply with the requirements of the preceding sentence.

Exhibit A-6

[Each Noteholder or Note Owner or beneficial owner of this Note, by acceptance of such this Note or such interest therein, agrees that (A) either (I) it is not and shall not become for U.S. federal income tax purposes a partnership, subchapter S corporation or grantor trust (or a disregarded entity the single owner of which is any of the foregoing) (each such entity a “Flow-Through Entity”) or (II) if it is or becomes a Flow-Through Entity, then (x) none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such Flow-Through Entity has or ever shall have more than 50% of the value of its interest in such Flow-Through Entity attributable to the interest of such Flow-Through Entity in the Notes, other interest (direct or indirect) in the Issuing Entity, or any interest created under the Indenture and (y) it is not and shall not be a principal purpose of the arrangement involving the investment of such Flow-Through Entity in any Note to permit any partnership to satisfy the 100 partner limitation of Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations necessary for such partnership not to be classified as a publicly traded partnership under the Code, and (B) it shall not transfer such Notes to a Flow-Through Entity (other than a Flow-Through Entity described in subpart (A)(II) above).]

Each Noteholder by accepting this Note (or any interest therein) acknowledges that such Person’s Note (or interest therein) represents an obligation of the Issuing Entity only and does not represent interests in or obligations of the Grantor Trust, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse, either directly or indirectly, may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated in the Transaction Documents. Each Noteholder by the acceptance of this Note (or beneficial interest therein) agrees that except as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents, in the event of nonpayment of any amounts with respect to this Class of Notes, it shall have no claim against any of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee or any Affiliate for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom. In the event that any of the foregoing covenants of each Noteholder is prohibited by, or declared illegal or otherwise unenforceable against any such Noteholder under applicable law by any court or other authority of competent jurisdiction, and, as a result, a Noteholder is deemed to have an interest in any assets of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor other than the Issuing Entity, each Noteholder agrees that (i) its claim against any such other assets shall be, and hereby is, subject and subordinate in all respects to the rights of other Persons to whom rights in the other assets have been expressly granted, including to the payment in full of all amounts owing to such entitled Persons, and (ii) the covenant set forth in the preceding clause (i) constitutes a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of, and subject to, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Except a Noteholder which is considered for federal income tax purposes the issuer of this Note (or is disregarded as an entity separate from such issuer), each Noteholder, by acceptance of this Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in this Note, expresses its intention that this Note qualifies under applicable tax law as indebtedness secured by the Collateral and, unless otherwise required by appropriate taxing authorities, agrees to treat this Note as indebtedness secured by the Collateral for the purpose of federal income taxes (to the extent this Class of Notes are treated as beneficially owned by a person other than the Issuing Entity or its affiliates), state and local income and franchise taxes, and any other taxes imposed upon, measured by or based upon gross or net income.

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuing Entity and the rights of the Noteholders under the Indenture at any time by the Issuing Entity with the consent of the Holders of Notes representing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes representing specified percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, on behalf of all the Holders of this Class of Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuing Entity with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holders of Notes representing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class or the Holder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of the Noteholders.

Exhibit A-7

The term “Issuing Entity” as used in this Note includes any successor to the Issuing Entity under the Indenture.

The Issuing Entity is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to merge or consolidate with or into another person, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of Notes under the Indenture.

The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuing Entity, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents, neither the Depositor, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Grantor Trust Trustee nor the Owner Trustee in their respective individual capacities, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns, shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note or the Indenture, it being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and indemnifications have been made by the Owner Trustee solely as the Owner Trustee in the assets of the Issuing Entity. The Holder of this Note by the acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing Entity for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Indenture Trustee whose name appears below by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture referred to herein or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuing Entity has caused this instrument to be signed, manually or in facsimile, by its Authorized Officer.
