Section 5.03. Transfer and Exchange. An Applicable Certificateholder may transfer an Applicable Certificate by written application to the Registrar stating the name of the proposed transferee and otherwise complying with the terms of this Agreement, including providing a written certificate or other evidence of compliance with any restrictions on transfer. No such transfer shall be effected until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of an Applicable Certificateholder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the Register. Prior to the registration of any transfer by an Applicable Certificateholder as provided herein, the Trustee shall treat the person in whose name the Applicable Certificate is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, and the Trustee shall not be affected by notice to the contrary. Furthermore, DTC shall, by acceptance of a Global Certificate, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Certificate may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by DTC (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the Certificate shall be required to be reflected in a book entry. When Applicable Certificates are presented to the Registrar with a request to register the transfer or to exchange them for an equal face amount of Applicable Certificates of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its requirements for such transactions are met. To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions hereof, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate Applicable Certificates at the Registrar's request. Section 5.04. Book-entry Provisions for U.S. Global Certificate and Offshore Global Certificates. (a) Members of, or participants in, DTC ("Agent Members") shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global Certificate held on their behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, and DTC may be treated by the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Certificate for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or shall impair, as 15 between DTC and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Applicable Certificate. Upon the issuance of any Global Certificate, the Registrar or its duly appointed agent shall record a nominee of DTC as the registered holder of such Global Certificate. (b) Transfers of any Global Certificate shall be limited to transfers of such Global Certificate or Offshore Global Certificate in whole, but not in part, to nominees of DTC, its successor or such successor's nominees. Beneficial interests in the U.S. Global Certificate and any Offshore Global Certificate may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 5.05. Beneficial interests in the U.S. Global Certificate or an Offshore Global Certificate shall be delivered to all beneficial owners in the form of U.S. Physical Certificates or Offshore Physical Certificates, as the case may be, if (i) DTC notifies the Trustee that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the U.S. Global Certificate or such Offshore Global Certificate, as the case may be, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Trustee within 90 days of such notice or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and Applicable Certificateholders with fractional undivided interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Applicable Trust advise the Trustee, the Company and DTC through Agent Members in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a successor thereto) is no longer in the Applicable Certificateholders' best interests. (c) Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Certificates that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the other Global Certificate will, upon such transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Certificate and become an interest in the other Global Certificate and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Certificate for as long as it remains such an interest. (d) In connection with the transfer of the entire U.S. Global Certificate or an entire Offshore Global Certificate to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 5.04, such U.S. Global Certificate or Offshore Global Certificate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by DTC in exchange for its beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Certificate or Offshore Global Certificate, as the case may be, an equal aggregate principal amount of U.S. Physical Certificates or Offshore Physical Certificates, as the case may be, of authorized denominations. (e) Any U.S. Physical Certificate delivered in exchange for an interest in the U.S. Global Certificate pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 5.04 shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraph (f) of Section 5.05, bear the Private Placement Legend. (f) Any Offshore Physical Certificate delivered in exchange for an interest in an Offshore Global Certificate pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall, except as otherwise provided by paragraph (f) of Section 5.05, bear the applicable legend regarding transfer restrictions set forth in Section 5.02(a). (g) The registered holder of the U.S. Global Certificate or any Offshore Global Certificate may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and 16 Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the Applicable Certificates.

(ii) If the proposed transferor is an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in the U.S. Global Certificate, upon receipt by the Registrar of (x) the documents, if any, required by paragraph (i) and (y) instructions given in accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date of the transfer and a decrease in the principal amount of such U.S. Global Certificate in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Certificate to be transferred, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the transferor or at its direction, one or more U.S. Physical Certificates of like tenor and amount. (b) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of an Initial Certificate to a QIB (excluding Non-U.S. Persons): (i) If the Initial Certificate to be transferred consists of U.S. Physical Certificates or an interest in any Temporary Offshore Global Certificate, the Registrar shall register the transfer if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of Initial Certificate stating, or has otherwise advised the Trustee and the Registrar in writing, that the sale has been made in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the certification provided for on the form of Initial Certificate stating, or has otherwise advised the Trustee and the Registrar in writing, that it is purchasing the Initial Certificate for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it, or 17 the Person on whose behalf it is acting with respect to any such account, is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A, and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Trust and/or the Company as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A. (ii) Upon receipt by the Registrar of the documents referred to in clause (i) above and instructions given in accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures therefor, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date of such transfer and an increase in the principal amount of the U.S. Global Certificate in an amount equal to the principal amount of the U.S. Physical Certificates or interests in the Temporary Offshore Global Certificate, as the case may be, being transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel such Physical Certificates or decrease the amount of such Temporary Offshore Global Certificate so transferred. (c) Transfers of Interests in the Permanent Offshore Global Certificate or Offshore Physical Certificates. The Registrar shall register any transfer of interests in the Permanent Offshore Global Certificate or Offshore Physical Certificates without requiring any additional certification. (d) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons at any Time. The following provisions shall apply with respect to any registration of any transfer of an Initial Certificate to a Non-U.S. Person: (i) Prior to the Offshore Certificates Exchange Date, the Registrar shall register any proposed transfer of an Initial Certificate to a Non-U.S. Person upon receipt of a certificate substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit C hereto from the proposed transferor. (ii) On and after the Offshore Certificates Exchange Date, the Registrar shall register any proposed transfer to any Non-U.S. Person if the Initial Certificate to be transferred is a U.S. Physical Certificate or an interest in the U.S. Global Certificate, upon receipt of a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C from the proposed transferor. The Registrar shall promptly send a copy of such certificate to the Company. (iii) (A) Upon receipt by the Registrar of (x) the documents, if any, required by paragraph (ii) and (y) instructions in accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date of such transfer and a decrease in the principal amount of such U.S. Global Certificate in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interest in such U.S. Global Certificate to be transferred, and (B) upon receipt by the Registrar of instructions given in accordance with DTC's and the Registrar's procedures, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Offshore Global Certificate in an amount equal to the 18 principal amount of the U.S. Physical Certificate or the U.S. Global Certificate, as the case may be, to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical Certificate, if any, so transferred or decrease the amount of such U.S. Global Certificate. (e) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Applicable Certificates not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Applicable Certificates that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Applicable Certificates bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Applicable Certificates that bear the Private Placement Legend unless either (i) the circumstances contemplated by paragraph (a)(i)(x) or (e)(ii) of this Section 5.05 exist or (ii) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.
