(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 officer of the Company 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 the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate 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 Company stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Company, 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.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders shall be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent 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 Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments.

- 9 -

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of

- 10 -

Section 2.3

Form of Reverse of Security.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the “Securities”), specified in the Indenture, all issued or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of December 30, 2009 (the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. By the terms of the Indenture, the Securities are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Indenture. This series of Securities is limited in aggregate principal amount to $ .

Because of the occurrence and continuation of a Special Event, in certain circumstances, this Security may become due and payable at [specify redemption prices] % of the principal amount thereof, together with any interest accrued thereon (the “Redemption Price”). The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such redemption or at such earlier time as the Company determines. The Company shall have the right to redeem this Security at the option of the Company, [without premium or penalty,] in whole or in part at any time on or after [ , ] (an “Optional Redemption”), or at any time in certain circumstances upon the occurrence of a Special Event at a redemption price equal to [specify redemption prices] % of the principal amount thereof, plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the date of such redemption (the “Optional Redemption Price”). Any redemption pursuant to this paragraph will be made upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days notice, at the Optional Redemption Price. If the Securities of this series are only partially redeemed by the Company pursuant to an Optional Redemption, such Securities will be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method utilized by the Trustee; provided that if, at the time of redemption, the Securities of this series are registered as a Global Security, the Depositary shall determine the principal amount of such Securities held by each Security Beneficial Owner to be redeemed in accordance with its procedures.

Any redemption of the Securities of this series, in whole or in part, prior to the stated maturity date is subject to the prior concurrence or approval of the Federal Reserve or the staff thereof, (i) if such concurrence or approval is then required in order for securities such as the Securities of this series to qualify as tier 1 capital of a bank holding company under applicable capital adequacy guidelines, regulations, policies, or published interpretations of the Federal Reserve, or (ii) if the Federal Reserve or its staff has informed the Company that it must obtain such approval before redeeming the Securities.

[The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days’ nor, more than 60 days’ notice by mail, (1) on in any year commencing with the year and ending with the year through operation of the sinking fund for this series at a Redemption Price of , (2) at any time [on or after , , as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount): If redeemed [on or before , , and if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning of the years indicated, and thereafter at a Redemption Price equal to % of the principal amount, together in the case of any such redemption (whether through operation of the sinking fund or otherwise) with accrued interest to the Redemption Date, but

- 18 -

interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.]

[Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not, prior to , redeem any Securities of this series as contemplated by Clause (2) of the preceding paragraph as a part of, or in anticipation of, any refunding operation by the application, directly or indirectly, of monies borrowed having an interest cost to the Company (calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice) of less than % per annum.]

[The sinking fund for this series provides for the redemption on in each year beginning with the year and ending with the year of [not less than] $ (“mandatory sinking fund”) and not more than $ aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series. Securities of this series acquired or redeemed by the Company otherwise than through [mandatory] sinking fund payments may be credited against subsequent [mandatory] sinking fund payments otherwise required to be made in the [inverse] order in which they become due.]

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to the Securities of this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Securities of this series may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series affected at the time Outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series under the Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall modify certain provisions of the Indenture, as set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Security then outstanding and affected thereby including, without limitation, to: (i) extend the fixed maturity of any Securities of any series, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change any Place of Payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Security or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or modify the provisions of the Indenture with respect to the subordination of the Securities in a manner adverse to the Holders, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or certain defaults thereunder and their consequences) provided for in the Indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting

- 19 -

the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the Securities of such series, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture with respect to such series, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and of any Security issued in exchange herefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under the Indenture or hereunder, Securities owned by the U.S. Government shall not be deemed to be Securities owned by an Affiliate of the Company.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Security at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.

So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall have the right at any time during the term of the Securities of this series and from time to time to extend the interest payment period of such Securities for up to 20 consecutive quarters (an “Extended Interest Payment Period”), at the end of which period the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid (together with interest thereon at the rate specified for the Securities of this series to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law); provided, that no such Extended Interest Payment Period shall extend beyond the maturity of such Securities; and provided further that during any such Extended Interest Payment Period (a) the Company and any subsidiary of the Company (other than a subsidiary of the Company that is a depository institution, or a subsidiary thereof) shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions with respect to, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto (other than (i) redemptions, purchases or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with the administration of any employee benefit plan in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, (ii) the acquisition by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of record ownership in capital stock of the Company for the beneficial ownership of any other persons (other than the Company or any of its subsidiaries), including trustees or custodians, (iii) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock for any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock, in each case, solely to the extent required pursuant to binding contractual agreements entered into prior to or on the original issue date of the Securities of this series or any subsequent agreement for the accelerated exercise, settlement or exchange thereof for capital stock of the Company, (iv) distributions by or among any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, (v) redemptions of securities held by the Company or any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and (vi) unpaid tax distributions to holders of membership interests of GMAC LLC pursuant to Section 4(b) of GMAC LLC’s Plan of Conversion, dated June 30, 2009), and (b) the Company and any subsidiary of the Company (other than a subsidiary of the Company that is a depository

- 20 -

institution, or a subsidiary thereof) shall not make any payment of interest on or principal of (or premium, if any, on), or repay, repurchase or redeem, any debt securities or guarantees issued by the Company which rank pari passu with or junior to the Securities (“Junior Subordinated Indebtedness”) (other than (i) redemptions, purchases or other acquisitions of Junior Subordinated Indebtedness in connection with the administration of any employee benefit plan in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, (ii) the acquisition by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of record ownership in Junior Subordinated Indebtedness for the beneficial ownership of any other persons (other than the Company or any of its subsidiaries), including trustees or custodians, (iii) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Junior Subordinated Indebtedness for any other class or series of Junior Subordinated Indebtedness, (iv) redemptions of securities held by the Company or any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and (v) any payment of interest on Junior Subordinated Indebtedness paid pro rata with interest paid on the Securities of this series such that the respective amounts of such payments made shall bear the same ratio to each other as all accrued but unpaid interest per like-amount of such Securities and all Junior Subordinated Indebtedness bear to each other). The foregoing restrictions, however, will not apply to (i) any stock dividends paid by the Company where the dividend stock is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or (ii) dividends or distributions by or other transactions solely among the Company and any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or solely among wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date during an Extended Interest Payment Period. Before the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company may further extend such Extended Interest Payment Period, provided that such Extended Interest Payment Period together with all such further extensions thereof shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarters and shall not extend beyond the maturity of the Securities of this series. At the termination of any such Extended Interest Payment Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any additional amounts then due, the Company may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Security is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and State of New York accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Security, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not this Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

- 21 -

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.

[The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.] [This Global Security is exchangeable for Securities of this series in definitive form only under certain limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. Securities of this series so issued are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.] As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations [herein and] therein set forth, Securities of this series [so issued] are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

(b) Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

(c) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established in or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 3.1, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be given, at the time of the initial delivery by the Company of Securities of such series to the Trustee for authentication, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating,

(1) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 2.1, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

(3) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by or on behalf of the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement or creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

(d) If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

(e) Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

(f) No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 3.4

Temporary Securities.

(a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the directors or officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

(b) If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for Securities of that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.

- 25 -

Section 3.5

Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

(a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities, or of Securities of a particular series, and of transfers of Securities or of Securities of such series. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Security Registrar” for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.

(b) Subject to Section 3.11, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for Securities of that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of like tenor of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

(c) Subject to Section 3.11, at the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of like tenor of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

(d) All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(e) Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

(f) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities.

(g) The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Securities of such series selected for redemption under Section 11.3 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

(h) Subject to this Section 3.5, Securities shall be freely transferable, subject to compliance with the Securities Act. Subject to the last sentence of this subsection (h), if a

- 26 -

Security bears a Private Placement Legend, such Security (x) may be transferred to a Person or Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a Security bearing a Private Placement Legend only if the Security Registrar receives (A) an appropriately completed certificate of transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and (B) if applicable, a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (each, a “Transfer Certification”); and (y) may be transferred to a Person or Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a Security not bearing a Private Placement Legend, or may be exchanged for a Certificate not bearing a Private Placement Legend, only if the Security Registrar has previously received an opinion of counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the Securities of the same series are eligible to be transferred without restriction (a “Transfer Opinion”). The Trustee and the Security Registrar shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer or exchange imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer or exchange of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. At such time as the Company shall determine, in accordance with applicable law, that the Securities are no longer required to bear the Private Placement Legend, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Transfer Opinion, and no Transfer Certification shall be required as a condition to any subsequent transfer of any Security.

Section 3.6

Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

(a) If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

(b) If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount as such destroyed, lost or stolen Security and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

(c) In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

(d) Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

- 27 -

(e) Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.

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

Section 3.7

Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

(a) Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

(b) Interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (other than pursuant to an Extended Interest Payment Period) (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

- 28 -

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee in its sole discretion.

(c) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

(d) For the purposes of determining the Holders who are entitled to participate in any distribution on the Securities in respect of which a Regular Record Date or a Special Record Date is not otherwise provided for in this Indenture, or for the purpose of any other action (unless provided for pursuant to Section 3.1), the Company may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days prior to the date of the payment of distribution or other action, as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of the identity of the Holders of record for such purposes.

Section 3.8

Persons Deemed Owners.

The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 3.9

Cancellation.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. Unless otherwise directed by a Company Order, delivery of which must be delivered in a timely manner to prevent such disposition, all cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by it in its customary manner, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a written request of the Company, shall deliver a certificate of such disposal to the Company.

Section 3.10

Interest.

(a) Each Security will bear interest at the rate established for the series of Securities of which such Security is a part pursuant to Section 3.1 (the “Coupon Rate”) from and including the original date of issuance of such Security until the principal thereof becomes due and

- 29 -

payable, and on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the Coupon Rate, compounded quarterly, payable (subject to the provisions of Article IV) quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year (or in such other periodic installments on such other dates established as payment dates for the series of Securities of which such Security is a part pursuant to Section 3.1) (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on the date established for the series of Securities of which such Security is a part pursuant to Section 3.1, to the Person in whose name such Security or any Predecessor Security is registered, at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest installment, which, in respect of any Securities of which the Institutional Trustee of any GMAC Trust is the Holder or a Global Security, shall be the close of business on the Business Day next preceding that Interest Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if the Trust Preferred Securities of a GMAC Trust are no longer in book-entry only form or, except if the Securities originally issued to such GMAC Trust are held by the Institutional Trustee of such GMAC Trust, the Securities of any series are not represented by a Global Security, the Company may select a Regular Record Date for such interest installment on such series of Securities which shall be any date more than 14 days but less than 60 days before an Interest Payment Date.

(b) The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and will include the first day but exclude the last day of such period. Except as provided in the following sentence, the amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full quarterly period for which interest is computed, will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a partial month in such period. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Securities of any series is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date.

(c) If the Securities of a series are established as a series of Floating or Adjustable Rate Securities pursuant to Section 3.1, then this Section 3.10(b) shall not apply and the Floating or Adjustable Rate Provisions, together with any additional terms established in the applicable Board Resolution or supplemental indenture, shall govern such series.

(d) If, at any time while the Institutional Trustee of a GMAC Trust is the Holder of Securities of any series, such GMAC Trust or such Institutional Trustee is required to pay any taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (other than withholding taxes) imposed by the United States, or any other taxing authority, then, in any case, the Company will pay as additional interest (“Additional Interest”) on the Securities of such series, such additional amounts as shall be required so that the net amounts received and retained by such GMAC Trust and/or such Institutional Trustee, as the case may be, after paying such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges will be equal to the amounts such GMAC Trust and/or such Institutional Trustee, as the case may be, would have received had no such taxes, duties, assessments or other government charges been imposed.

- 30 -

Section 3.11

Form and Payment.

Except as provided in Section 3.12, the Securities of each series shall be issued in fully registered certificated form without interest coupons. Principal and interest on the Securities issued in certificated form will be payable, the transfer of such Securities will be registrable, and such Securities will be exchangeable, for Securities of the same series bearing identical terms and provisions at the office or agency of the Trustee; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Holders of such Securities at such address as shall appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Holder of all Securities of any series is the Institutional Trustee of any GMAC Trust, the payment of the principal of and interest (including Compounded Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on Securities of such series will be made at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Institutional Trustee.

Section 3.12

Global Securities.

(a) In connection with a Dissolution Event with respect to any GMAC Trust,

(i) the Securities in non book-entry certificated form held by such GMAC Trust, or its Institutional Trustee, will be presented to the Trustee by the Institutional Trustee of such GMAC Trust in exchange for a Global Security in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Securities of the series issued to such GMAC Trust, to be registered in the name of the Depositary, or its nominee, and delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary for crediting to the accounts of its participants pursuant to the instructions of the Administrative Trustees of the relevant GMAC Trust. The Company upon any such presentation shall execute a Global Security in such aggregate principal amount and deliver the same to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture. Payments on any Securities issued as a Global Security will be made to the Depositary; and

(ii) if any Trust Preferred Securities of such GMAC Trust are held in non book-entry certificated form, the Securities in non book-entry certificated form held by such GMAC Trust, or its Institutional Trustee, may be presented to the Trustee by the Institutional Trustee of such GMAC Trust and any Trust Preferred Security Certificate which represents Trust Preferred Securities of such GMAC Trust other than Trust Preferred Securities held by the Depositary or its nominee (“Non Book-Entry Trust Preferred Securities”) will be deemed to represent Securities presented to the Trustee by such Institutional Trustee having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Non Book-Entry Trust Preferred Securities until such Trust Preferred Security Certificates are presented to the Security Registrar for transfer or reissuance at which time such Trust Preferred Security Certificates will be cancelled and a Security, registered in the name of the holder of the Trust Preferred Security Certificate or the transferee of the holder of such Trust Preferred Security Certificate, as the case may be, with an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Trust Preferred Security Certificate cancelled, will be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with this Indenture. On issue of such Securities, Securities with an equivalent aggregate principal amount that were presented by the Institutional Trustee to the Trustee will be deemed to have been cancelled.

(b) A Global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(c) If at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for any series of Securities or if at any time the Depositary for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary for such series is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the case may be, the Company will execute, and, subject to this Article III, the Trustee, upon written notice from the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Securities of such series in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the Company may at any time determine that the Securities of any series shall no longer be represented by a Global Security, subject to the procedures of the Depositary.

Such Securities in definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Security shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the Depositary, for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Every recovery of judgment in any such action or other proceeding, subject to the payment to the Trustee of all amounts owing the Trustee and any predecessor trustee hereunder under Section 6.7, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of such series of Securities which shall be the subject of such action or proceeding.

(a) The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee hereunder, or of exercising any trust or power hereby conferred upon the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken or would be unduly prejudicial to Holders not joining in such direction or would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

(b) Prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of the Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such series of Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder and its consequences except a default not theretofore cured in the payment of interest (including any Additional Interest) or any premium on or the principal of the Securities of such series or in respect of any covenant or provision hereof which under Article IX cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of each series affected thereby; provided, however, that if the Securities of such series are held by a GMAC Trust or a trustee of such trust, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not be effective until the holders of Trust Securities representing a majority in liquidation preference of Trust Securities of the applicable GMAC Trust shall have consented to such waiver or modification to such waiver; provided further, that if the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities of the applicable GMAC Trust shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any

- 40 -

default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 5.6, said default shall for all purposes of the Securities of such series and this Indenture cease to exist, and any Default or Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.

series to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this Article V to the Trustee and to the Holders, respectively, may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. In case the Trustee or any Holder of Securities shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and the proceedings for the enforcement thereof shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason or shall have been adjudicated adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall severally and respectively be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and thereafter all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been instituted, except as to any matters so waived or adjudicated.

Section 5.10

Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will 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, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no law had been enacted.

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

Section 6.2

Notice of Defaults.

Section 6.10

- 48 -

officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Company, by a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 5.8, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees.

(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series.

(f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of such series as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register.

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.

- 49 -

(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to the Securities of all series for which it is the Trustee hereunder, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

(c) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

(d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article.

The Trustee shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in the Trust Indenture Act Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to the Trust Indenture Act Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein.

Section 6.14

Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.

If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

(b) Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

(c) An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be

- 51 -

acceptable to the Company and shall give notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

(d) The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.

(e) If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

ARTICLE XIII

EXTENSION OF INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD

Section 13.1

Extension of Interest Payment Period.

So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Securities of any series, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of all Securities of such series for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters (the “Extended Interest Payment Period”), during which Extended Interest Payment Period no interest shall be due and payable on Securities of such series; provided that no Extended Interest Payment Period may extend beyond the Maturity of such Securities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest, the payment of which has been deferred because of the extension of the interest payment period pursuant to this Section 13.1, will bear interest thereon at the Coupon Rate compounded quarterly for each quarter of the Extended Interest Payment Period (“Compounded Interest”). At the end of any Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to any series of Securities, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on such Securities, including any Additional Interest and Compounded Interest (together, “Deferred Interest”) that shall be payable to the Holders of

- 65 -

Securities of such Series in whose names such Securities are registered in the Security Register on the record date immediately preceding the end of such Extended Interest Payment Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date during an Extended Interest Payment Period. Before the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period, the Company may further extend such period; provided that such period, together with all such further extensions thereof, shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarters; and provided further that no prepayment of interest during an Extended Interest Payment Period shall allow the Company to extend such Extended Interest Payment Period beyond 20 consecutive quarters. Upon the termination of any Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to any series of Securities and upon the payment of all Deferred Interest then due, the Company may commence a new Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to such series of Securities, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest on a series of Securities shall be due and payable during an Extended Interest Payment Period with respect thereto, except at the end thereof, provided the Company may prepay at any time all or any portion of the interest accrued during any Extended Interest Payment Period.

Section 13.2

Notice of Extension.

(a) If the Institutional Trustee of a GMAC Trust is the only Holder of Securities of a series at the time the Company selects an Extended Interest Payment Period with respect thereto, the Company shall give written notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Institutional Trustee of such GMAC Trust and to the Trustee of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period at least one Business Day before the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Trust Securities issued by such GMAC Trust would be payable, if not for such Extended Interest Payment Period, or (ii) the date such GMAC Trust is required to give notice of the record date, or the date such Distributions are payable, to the New York Stock Exchange or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of the Trust Preferred Securities issued by such GMAC Trust, but in any event at least one Business Day before such record date.

(b) If the Institutional Trustee of a GMAC Trust is not the only Holder of Securities of a series at the time the Company selects an Extended Interest Payment Period with respect thereto, the Company shall give written notice to the Holders of Securities of such series, the Administrative Trustees and the Trustee of its selection of such Extended Interest Payment Period at least 10 Business Days before the earlier of (i) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, or (ii) the date the Company is required to give notice of the record or payment date of such interest payment to the New York Stock Exchange or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to Holders of Securities of such series.

(c) The quarter in which any notice is given pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 13.2 shall be counted as one of the 20 quarters permitted in the maximum Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to any series of Securities.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Indenture, the Company shall be required to give notice to any Person of its selection of an Extended Interest Payment Period no more than 15 Business Days and no less than 5 Business Days before the next succeeding Interest Payment Date of the affected Securities.

Section 13.3

It is understood that the provisions of this Article XIV are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of such Senior Indebtedness on the other hand.

Section 14.6

Notice by the Company.

The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIV. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XIV or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article XIV, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives or from any trustee therefor; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section 14.6 at least three Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purposes for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within three Business Days prior to such date.

The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, as the case may be (or a trustee on behalf of such holder), to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of such Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article XIV, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XIV, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article XIV, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of such Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders of Securities, the Company or any other Person money or assets to which any holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article XIV or otherwise.

Section 14.8

Subordination May Not Be Impaired.

No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company, as the case may be, or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company, as the case may be, with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article XIV or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company, as the case may be, and any other Person.

ARTICLE XV

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 15.1

Acknowledgement of Rights.

The Company acknowledges that, with respect to any Securities held by a GMAC Trust or a trustee of such Trust, if the Institutional Trustee of such GMAC Trust fails to enforce its rights under this Indenture as the Holder of the series of Securities held as the assets of such GMAC Trust, any holder of Trust Preferred Securities of such GMAC Trust may institute legal proceedings directly against the Company to enforce such Institutional Trustee’s rights under this Indenture without first instituting any legal proceedings against such Institutional Trustee or any other person or entity.

Notwithstanding any payments made to such holder of Trust Securities by the Company in connection with a Direct Action, the Company shall remain obligated to pay the principal of or interest on (or premium, if any) the series of Securities held by a GMAC Trust or the Institutional Trustee of a GMAC Trust, and the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of such Trust Securities to the extent of any payments made by the Company to such holder in any Direct Action.
