The Hedge Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties as their interests appear in the Trust Estate. If, at any time, the Hedge Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Bank Account, the Indenture Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 3.1(l), establish a new Hedge Reserve Account (which if not maintained by the Indenture Trustee is subject to an account control agreement satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent) which shall be an Eligible Bank Account, transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Hedge Reserve Account and from the date such new Hedge Reserve Account is established, it shall be the “Hedge Reserve Account.” Amounts on deposit in the Hedge Reserve Account shall be invested in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof. Deposits to the Hedge Reserve Account shall be made in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof. Funding, withdrawals and payments from the Hedge Reserve Account shall be made in the following manner:

(i)    Funding. On the Amendment Closing Date and each Funding Date, the Issuer shall deposit or shall cause to be deposited into the Hedge Reserve Account the amount necessary to cause the amount on deposit in the Hedge Reserve Account to be equal to the Hedge Reserve Account Required Balance. In addition, on each Payment Date prior to the earlier of (a) the Mandatory Take-Out Date and (b) a Take-Out Transaction, if the amount on deposit in the Hedge Reserve Account is less than the Hedge Reserve Account Required Balance, a deposit shall be made to the Hedge Reserve Account, to the extent of Available Funds as provided in Section 3.4 hereof.

(ii)    Special Amortization Event. Upon the occurrence of a Special Amortization Event, the Issuer shall, no later than 5 Business Days thereafter, purchase or cause to be purchased a Hedge Agreement that meets the Hedge Requirements. The Indenture Trustee shall, as directed by the Issuer and the Administrative Agent, to the extent of funds available in the Hedge Reserve Account, either (i) pay the applicable Hedge Agreement premium to the related Qualified Hedge Counterparty, or (ii) in the event the Issuer provides the Indenture Trustee with evidence that it has already paid such premium, reimburse the Issuer. To the extent there are funds remaining in the Hedge Reserve Account following the payment of such Hedge Agreement premium, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw such funds from the Hedge Reserve Account and deposit such funds into the Collection Account as Available Funds for the immediately following Payment Date. To the extent that the Issuer fails to purchase or cause to be purchased a Hedge Agreement following a Special Amortization Event in the timeframe described above, the Administrative Agent is authorized to obtain such Hedge Agreement on behalf of the Issuer and to direct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from the Hedge Reserve Account, to the extent of funds available therein, the applicable Hedge Agreement premium and to pay such amount to the related Qualified Hedge Counterparty.

(iii)    Withdrawals. Upon the earlier of (a) the purchase of a Hedge Agreement in accordance with Section 3.3(ii) above or (b) the consummation of a Take-Out Transaction, to the extent that there are any remaining amounts on deposit in the Hedge Reserve Account, the Indenture Trustee shall (x) withdraw all amounts on deposit in the

Hedge Reserve Account and shall deposit such amounts into the Collection Account as Available Funds on the next Payment Date and (y) close the Hedge Reserve Account.”
