surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer hereby appoints JP Morgan Bank (Ireland) PLC as Paying Agent for the payment of principal and interest with respect to only those securities listed on the Irish Stock Exchange.
The Issuer may at any time and from time to time vary or terminate the appointment of any such agent or appoint any additional agents for any or all of such purposes; provided, that, (A) no Paying Agent shall be appointed in a jurisdiction that subjects payments on the Notes to withholding tax and (B) so long as any Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Issuer will maintain in Ireland a Paying Agent and an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of such securities and this Indenture may be served and where such Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange.

11
withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for repurchase or whose right to or interest in moneys due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder).

(a) On each day, the Issuer shall maintain one or more Hedge Transactions, provided that each such Hedge Transaction shall:
(i) be entered into with a Hedge Counterparty and governed by a Hedge Agreement;
(ii) have a schedule of periodic payment periods which terminate not later than the date on which the Outstanding Amount of the Notes is expected to be reduced to zero based on an assumed constant prepayment rate of 10% with respect to the Loans;
(iii) on the Closing Date, have an amortizing notional amount such that the Aggregate Notional Amount during any current or future calculation period thereunder shall be not less than the sum of (A) the product of 100% and the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Fixed Rate Loans for the corresponding Due Period; and (B) the product of 100% and the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Floating Prime Rate Loans for the corresponding Due Period, in each case based on an assumed constant prepayment rate of 10% with respect to the Loans;
(iv) be maintained so that (A) the Aggregate Notional Amount of all Hedge Transactions hedging the Fixed Rate Loans for any current or future calculation period will not be greater than the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Fixed Rate Loans at the end of the corresponding Due Period by more than the Fixed Rate Permitted Excess Amount, (B) the Aggregate Notional Amount of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any interest
25
rate cap transactions) hedging the Floating Prime Rate Loans for any current or future calculation period will not be greater than the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Floating Prime Rate Loans at the end of the corresponding Due Period by more than the Floating Prime Rate Permitted Excess Amount and (C) the Aggregate Notional Amount of all Hedge Transactions (excluding any interest rate cap transactions) under all Hedge Agreements then in effect for any current or future calculation period shall not exceed the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance for the corresponding Interest Accrual Period; and
(v) each Hedge Agreement will provide that any scheduled periodic payments required to be made by the Issuer and the Hedge Counterparty on the same date with respect to a Hedge Transaction will be netted so that only the net difference between such payments will be paid, with any net periodic payments to be paid into the Principal and Interest Account (if payable by the Hedge Counterparty) or from the Principal and Interest Account (if payable by the Issuer) and distributed pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(b) As additional security hereunder, the Issuer hereby assigns to the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty, all right, title and interest of the Issuer in each Hedge Agreement, each Hedge Transaction, and all present and future amounts payable by a Hedge Counterparty to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the respective Hedge Agreement and Hedge Transaction(s) with that Hedge Counterparty (Hedge Collateral), and Grants a security interest to the Indenture Trustee, as agent for the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty, in the Hedge Collateral. The Issuer acknowledges that, as a result of that assignment, the Issuer may not, without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, exercise any rights under any Hedge Agreement or Hedge Transaction, except for the Issuers right under any Hedge Agreement to enter into Hedge Transactions in order to meet the Issuers obligations under Section 3.32 hereof or except as otherwise contemplated in this Section 3.32 and in subsection 5.02(g) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Nothing herein shall have the effect of releasing the Issuer from any of its obligations under any Hedge Agreement or any Hedge Transaction, nor be construed as requiring the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder or any Hedge Counterparty for the performance by the Issuer of any such obligations.
(c) The Issuer hereby agrees to maintain a register of outstanding Hedge Agreements. Such register shall contain the name of each Hedge Counterparty as well as the address of each Hedge Counterparty. The Issuer shall provide such names and addresses to the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and each Rating Agency on a current basis.
(d) The Indenture Trustee shall, upon notice from the Issuer, establish a single, segregated trust account which shall be designated as the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account, which shall be held in trust in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties and over which the Trustee shall have the exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal. The Indenture Trustee shall deposit all collateral received from a Hedge Counterparty under a Hedge Agreement in the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in trust by the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties. The only permitted withdrawal from
26
or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be upon Issuer Order (i) for application to obligations of a Hedge Counterparty to the Issuer under Hedge Agreement if such Hedge Agreement becomes subject to early termination or (ii) to return collateral to such Hedge Counterparty when and as required by such Hedge Agreement. The Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon such Issuer Order. Each Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in accordance with the terms of the related Hedge Agreement.
(e) Each Hedge Agreement will provide that if at any time the Hedge Counterparty or the Hedge Counterpartys credit support provider does not have the long-term or short-term ratings required to be a Qualified Hedge Counterparty then (A) the Hedge Counterparty shall either post collateral within 30 days as provided in the Credit Support Annex to the Hedge Agreement or (B) transfer (at its own cost) all of its rights and obligations under the Hedge Agreement to another Person in accordance with the terms of the Hedge Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Hedge Counterparty has a long-term senior unsecured debt rating by Moodys of below A3 or A3 on watch or a short-term debt rating by Moodys of below P-1 (for so long as the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes or the Class D Notes are deemed Outstanding hereunder and are rated by Moodys), the Hedge Counterparty shall transfer (at its own cost) all of its rights and obligations under the Hedge Agreements to another Person in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 3.33. Payments from Obligor LockBoxes and Obligor LockBox Accounts.
The Issuer agrees not to make, or permit to be made, any change, in the direction of, or instructions with respect to, any payments to be made by an Obligor LockBox Bank from any Obligor LockBox or any Obligor LockBox Account in any manner that would diminish, impair, delay or otherwise adversely effect the timing or receipt of such payments by the LockBox Bank or to change the name in which an Obligor Lock-Box or Obligor Lock-Box Account is maintained without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and with the consent of the Majority Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties. The Issuer further agrees to provide the Indenture Trustee promptly, but in no case later than one (1) Business Day after the Issuers receipt, any notice it receives that an Obligor is changing the direction of or instructions with respect to any payments from any Obligor LockBox or any Obligor LockBox Account or the name in which an Obligor Lock-Box or Obligor Lock-Box Account is maintained.
Section 3.34. Maintenance of Listing.
So long as any of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes or the Class D Notes remain Outstanding, the Issuer shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of such Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes on the Irish Stock Exchange. If, despite such efforts, such listing cannot be maintained, the Issuer shall instead use reasonable efforts to promptly obtain and thereafter maintain a listing of such Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes or the Class D Notes on any other stock exchange located within a member country of the European Union.

Section 4.01. The Notes.
Certain of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes shall be registered initially in the name of Cede & Co. Beneficial Owners will hold interests in the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes through the bookentry facilities of the Depository in minimum denominations of $500,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Subject to subsections 4.02(b), (p), (q) and (r), the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Class E Note shall be issued in such names and denominations as may be set forth on an Issuer Order delivered to the Indenture Trustee.
The Notes shall, on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee, authenticated by the Note Registrar and delivered by the Indenture Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.
Section 4.02. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.
(a) The Indenture Trustee shall cause to be kept a Note Register (the Note Register) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The Indenture Trustee shall be Note Registrar for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Note Register shall contain the name, remittance instructions, Class of each Noteholder, as well as the Series and the number in the Series.
(b) Each Class of Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $500,000 initial principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, except that one Note of each Class may be in a different denomination so that the sum of the denominations of all outstanding Notes of such Class shall equal the applicable Initial Class A-1 Principal Balance, the Initial Class A-2 Principal Balance, the Initial Class A-3 Principal Balance, the Initial Class B Principal Balance, the Initial Class C Principal Balance, the Initial Class D Principal Balance and the Initial Class E Principal Balance, respectively. On the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee will execute and authenticate (i) one or more Global Notes and/or (ii) Individual Notes all in an aggregate principal amount that shall equal the applicable Initial Class A-1 Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class A-2 Principal Balance, the Initial Class A-3 Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class B Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class C Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class D Principal Balance and the applicable Initial Class E Principal Balance.
(c) The Global Notes (i) shall be delivered by the Issuer to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depositorys instructions, shall be delivered by the Issuer on behalf of the Depository to and deposited with the DTC Custodian, and in each case shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. and (ii) with respect to the Rule 144A Global Notes, shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:
28
Unless this Note is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (DTC), to the Note Registrar or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any Note issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.
The Global Notes may be deposited with such other Depository as the Issuer may from time to time designate, and shall bear such legend as may be appropriate; provided, that, such successor Depository maintains a bookentry system that qualifies to be treated as registered form under Section 163(f)(3) of the Code.
The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee are hereby authorized to execute and deliver a Letter of Representations with the Depository relating to the Notes.
(d) With respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) and the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to Direct or Indirect Participants or Beneficial Owners for which the Depository holds Notes from time to time as a Depository. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, (as such and in its individual capacity), and the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (a) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, Cede & Co., or any Direct or Indirect Participant with respect to the ownership interest in the Notes, (b) the delivery to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note, (c) the payment to any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register, of any amount with respect to any distribution of principal or interest on the Notes or (d) the making of bookentry transfers among Participants of the Depository with respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the name of the nominee of the Depository. No Person other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register shall receive a Note evidencing such Note.
(e) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Indenture Trustee of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with respect to the payment of distributions by the mailing of checks or drafts to the registered Holders of Notes appearing as registered Owners in the Note Register on a Record Date, the name Cede & Co. in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of the Depository.
(f) In the event that (i) the Depository or the Servicer advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect to the Global Notes and the Servicer is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Servicer at its sole option elects to terminate the bookentry system through the Depository, the Global Notes shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the
29
Note Register in the name of Cede & Co. (or a successor nominee) as nominee of the Depository. At that time, the Servicer may determine that the Global Notes shall be registered in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a global bookentry system, as may be acceptable to the Servicer, or such depositorys agent or designee but, if the Servicer does not select such alternative global bookentry system, then upon surrender to the Note Registrar of the Global Notes by the Depository, accompanied by the registration instructions from the Depository for registration, the Indenture Trustee shall at the Servicers expense authenticate Individual Notes. Neither the Servicer nor 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 Individual Notes, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Servicer, any Paying Agent and the Issuer shall recognize the Holders of the Individual Notes as Noteholders hereunder.
(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, so long as any Global Notes are registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, all distributions of principal and interest on such Global Notes and all notices with respect to such Global Notes shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the Letter of Representations.
(h) Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office of the Note Registrar and, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer shall execute in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Note or Notes of the same Percentage Interest and dated the date of authentication by the Indenture Trustee. The Note Registrar shall notify the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of any such transfer.
(i) At the option of the Noteholders, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes in authorized denominations of a like Class, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by wiring instructions, if applicable, in the form of Exhibit C. The preceding provisions of this section notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not be required to make and the Note Registrar shall not register transfers or exchanges of Notes called for repurchase.
(j) No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but prior to transfer the Note Registrar may require payment by the transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.
All Notes surrendered for payment, transfer and exchange or repurchase shall be marked canceled by the Note Registrar and retained for one year and destroyed thereafter.
(k) By acceptance of an Individual Note, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Note set forth in the Securities Legend and agrees that it will transfer such a Note only as provided herein. In addition to the provisions of subsection 4.02(m) and (n) the following
30
restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of an Individual Note to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of an Individual Note:
(i) The Note Registrar shall register the transfer of an Individual Note if the requested transfer is being made to a transferee who has provided the Note Registrar with a Rule 144A Certification or to a transferee who is an Affiliate of the Originator in a transfer which otherwise complies with subsection 4.02(s); or
(ii) The Note Registrar shall register the transfer of any Individual Note if (I) such transfer is made to a transferee who is an Affiliate of the Originator and such transfer otherwise complies with subsection 4.02(s), or (II) (x) the transferor has advised the Note Registrar in writing that the Note is being transferred to a Person that is both an Institutional Accredited Investor and a Qualified Purchaser; and (y) prior to the transfer the transferee furnishes to the Note Registrar a Transferee Letter; provided, that, if based upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the delivery of (x) and (y) above are not sufficient to confirm that the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable laws, the Note Registrar may as a condition of the registration of any such transfer require the transferor to furnish other certifications, legal opinions or other information prior to registering the transfer of an Individual Note.
(l) Subject to subsection 4.02(n), so long as a Global Note remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository, transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Note, or transfers by holders of Individual Notes to transferees that take delivery in the form of beneficial interests in the Global Note, may be made only in accordance with this subsection 4.02(l) and in accordance with the rules of the Depository.
(i) Rule 144A Global Note to Regulation S Global Note During the Distribution Compliance Period. If, during the Distribution Compliance Period, a Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, such Beneficial Owner may, in addition to complying with all applicable rules and procedures of the Depository and Clearstream or Euroclear applicable to transfers by their respective participants (the Applicable Procedures), transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this subsection 4.02(l)(i).

39
and/or the Class E Notes are owned by more than one (1) Holder, for federal income tax purposes, the Trust will be treated as a partnership, the partners of which are the Certificateholders and the Class E Noteholders, and each Certificateholder and Class E Noteholder, by acceptance of a Trust Certificate and a Class E Note, respectively, agree to treat the Trust Certificate and the Class E Note as equity and to take no action inconsistent with such treatment.

(i) have become due and payable, or
(ii) are to be called for repurchase within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee for the giving of notice of repurchase by the Indenture Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer,

Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.
If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(vi) or 5.01(vii)), then and in every such case the Indenture Trustee or the Majority Noteholders may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Issuer and the Rating Agencies (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by Noteholders), 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. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(vi) or Section 5.01(vii) occurs, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.
At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Majority Noteholders, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:
(A) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:
(i) all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes, all scheduled payments then due and payable under each Hedge Agreement and all other amounts that would then be due hereunder, upon the Notes and each Hedge Agreement if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and
(ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and
43
(B) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.
No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto. No such rescission or annulment shall affect a Hedge Agreement or any Hedge Transaction that has been terminated in accordance with the terms thereof. Any Hedge Agreement in effect at the time of any declaration of acceleration of maturity shall remain in effect until such time as such declaration of acceleration of maturity can no longer be rescinded or annulled under the terms of this Indenture.
Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee.
(a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of five Business Days, or (ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of two Business Days, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Noteholders, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal, 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) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, with the consent of the Majority Noteholders and subject to the provisions of Section 11.17 hereof may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes and collect in the manner provided by law out of the Indenture Collateral, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.
(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee subject to the provisions of Section 11.17 hereof may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparties and by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee 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 law.
(d) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Indenture Collateral, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or
44
in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer 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 5.03, 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 Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) 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 moneys 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 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, and, in the event that 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 Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.
(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.
45
(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 action or 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 expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.
(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 Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 5.4(a), 5.10 and 5.11), if the Issuer fails to perform its obligations under Section 10.01 when and as due, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the direction of the Class A-1 Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B Notes, the Class C Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes or the Class D Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D Notes, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for specific performance 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 law.

46

(iv) sell the Indenture Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein;
provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Indenture Collateral following an Event of Default, other than a default in the payment of any principal or interest on the Notes for 30 days or more, unless (A) (i) prior to the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, the Class A-1 Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B Notes, the Class C Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes and the Class D Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D Notes and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Hedge Counterparty upon a termination of its Hedge Agreement, each Hedge Counterparty consents thereto, (ii) from and after the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and amounts due under the Hedge Agreements, the Class E Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class E Note consents thereto, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest and all amounts payable to each Hedge Counterparty upon termination of the Hedge Agreements, or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Loans will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, in accordance with their respective terms as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of (i) prior to the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, the Class A-1 Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B Notes, the Class C Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes and the Class D Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D Notes and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Hedge Counterparty upon a termination of its Hedge Agreement, each Hedge Counterparty, and (ii) from and after the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and amounts due under the Hedge Agreements, the Class E Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class E Notes.

47
feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Indenture Collateral for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as a Servicer Default has not occurred, any Sale of the Indenture Collateral shall be made subject to the continued servicing of the Loans by the Servicer as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, it shall pay out the money or property as set forth in Section 7.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

In determining whether to maintain possession of the Indenture 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 Indenture Collateral for such purpose.
Section 5.06. Limitation of Suits.

(iv) the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and
(v) (A) prior to the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60 day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and Class D Notes and (B) from and after payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60 day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class E Notes.
It is 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 or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.
In the event 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 Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.
Section 5.07. 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, if any, on such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture (or, in the case of repurchase, on or after the Repurchase Date) and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.
Section 5.08. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.
49
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 Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.
Section 5.09. 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 Majority Noteholders shall have the right to direct 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, that:
(i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;
(ii) subject to the express terms of Section 5.04, any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Indenture Collateral shall be by Holders of the Notes representing (A) prior to the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-1 Notes, all Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, all Class B Notes, all Class C Notes, all Class D Notes and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Hedge Counterparty upon a termination of its Hedge Agreement, each Hedge Counterparty and (B) from and after the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and amounts due under the Hedge Agreements, 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class E Notes;
50
(iii) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Indenture Collateral pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Indenture Collateral shall be of no force and effect unless (A) prior to the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes, the Class A-1 Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B Notes, the Class C Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes, the Class D Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D Notes and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Hedge Counterparty upon a termination of its Hedge Agreement, each Hedge Counterparty consent thereto and (B) from and after the payment in full of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and amounts due under the Hedge Agreements, the Class E Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class E Notes consents thereto; and
(iv) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.
Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section 5.11, subject to Section 6.01, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability or might materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders or Hedge Counterparties not consenting to such action.
Section 5.12. Waiver of Past Defaults.
Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02, the Majority Noteholders may waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
Upon any such waiver, 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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. No such waiver shall affect a Hedge Agreement or any Hedge Transaction that has been terminated in accordance with its terms.
Section 5.13. Undertaking for Costs.
51
All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holders acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 25% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance or (c) any suit 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.
Section 5.14. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.
The Issuer 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, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (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 Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.
Section 5.15. Sale of Indenture Collateral.
(a) The power to effect any sale or other disposition (a Sale) of any portion of a Indenture Collateral pursuant to Section 5.04 is expressly subject to the provisions of Section 5.05 and this Section 5.15. The power to effect any such Sale shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Indenture Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Indenture Collateral shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes and under this Indenture shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale.
(b) The Indenture Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the Indenture Collateral, or any portion thereof, unless the Holders of all the Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes, and each Hedge Counterparty consent to or direct the Indenture Trustee to make such Sale and:
(i) the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than the entire amount which would be payable to the Noteholders under the Notes and the Hedge Counterparties under the Hedge Agreements, in full payment thereof (including all Hedge Breakage Costs and other amounts payable in connection with the termination of the Hedge Agreements) on the Remittance Date next succeeding the date of such Sale, or
(ii) the Indenture Trustee determines, in its sole discretion, that the conditions for retention of the Indenture Collateral set forth in Section 5.05 cannot be satisfied (in

(ix) to make such amendments to this Indenture or the Notes (other than an amendment of the type described in Section 9.02(i)-(viii)) as the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, in their reasonable discretion, may deem necessary or advisable in order for the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes to qualify for or maintain their listing on the Irish Stock Exchange; and

(vii) change the definition of Eligible Loan.
Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, in no event may Section 3.32 of the Indenture be amended or modified in any respect without the prior written consent of each Hedge Counterparty.
The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.
It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders or Hedge Counterparties under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.
69
Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes and the Hedge Counterparties to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a copy of such supplemental Indenture or a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture.

At any time during the Call Period, the Issuer may repurchase the Notes in whole, but not in part, at the direction of the Holder of the Class E Note pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, on any Remittance Date on which the Holder of the Class E Note provides notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of its election to cause the Issuer to repurchase the Notes.

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

Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:
(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;

72
Officers Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the estimated fair value (within 90 days of such deposit) to the Issuer of the Indenture Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited.
(ii) Subject to clause (iii), whenever any property or securities are to be released from the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officers Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the estimated fair value (within ninety (90) 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.
(iii) Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, the Issuer may, without compliance with the requirements of the other provisions of this Section 11.01, (A) collect, sell or otherwise dispose of Loans and Indenture Collateral as and to the extent permitted or required by the Transaction Documents, or (B) make cash payments out of the Trust Accounts.
Section 11.02. Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.
In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.
Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which the certificate or opinion is based are 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 Issuer, the Trust Depositor, or other appropriate Person, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Issuer, the Trust Depositor or such other Person, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.
Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.
Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuers compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy in all material respects, 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
73
of the Issuer 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 Trustees right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI.
Section 11.03. 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 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 Issuer. 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 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.03.
(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.
(c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.
(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any 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 or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.
Section 11.04. Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee and Others.
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, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:
(i) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee and received at the Corporate Trust Office, or
(ii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed firstclass, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: CapitalSource Commercial Loan Trust 2004-2, c/o Wilmington Trust Company, Rodney Square North, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19890, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, with a copy to CapitalSource Finance LLC at 4445 Willard Avenue, 12th Floor, Chevy Chase, Maryland 20815, Attention: Controller, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to
74
the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer, CapitalSource or the Trust Depositor. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.
Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to (i) in the case of S&P, at the following address: Standard and Poors Rating Service, 55 Water Street, 41st Floor, New York, New York 10007, Attention: Surveillance: AssetBacked Services, and via electronic mail to ***@*** (ii) in the case of Fitch, at the following address: 55 East Monroe Street, Suite 3500, Chicago, Illinois 60603, Attention: CDO Surveillance, and (iii) in the case of Moodys, at the following address: Moodys Investors Service, ABS Monitoring Department, 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007, ***@***; or as to each of the foregoing, at such other address as shall be designated by written notice to the other parties; provided, however, that no notice shall be required to be given to the Rating agencies until a Class of Notes has been rated by such Rating Agency.
Notices required to be given to any Hedge Counterparty by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the notice address shown in the register kept by the Issuer, as provided to the Indenture Trustee.
Section 11.05. Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.
Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, by nationally recognized overnight courier or by firstclass, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at his 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. In any case where 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.
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.
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 to 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.
75
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.
In addition, for so long as any Class of Notes is listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and the rules thereof so require, notices to Holders of such Notes will also be given by publication in the Irish Stock Exchanges Daily Official List or as otherwise required by the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange.
Section 11.06. Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer 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 Issuer will furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee will cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.
Section 11.07. Effect of Headings.
The Article and Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.
Section 11.08. Successors and Assigns.
All covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, cotrustees and agents.
Section 11.09. 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 shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 11.10. 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 the Noteholders, and any other party secured hereunder (including the Hedge Counterparties), and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Indenture Collateral, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.
Section 11.11. Legal Holidays.

79
including, without limitation, the payment of postpetition interest on such other obligations and liabilities.
