The aggregate principal amounts of such classes of Notes that are Outstanding at any time may not exceed such respective amounts.

The Notes will be issued in minimum principal amount denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Securities Administrator by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

SECTION 2.3 Limitation on Transfer of Notes.

(a) No Definitive Note shall be transferred unless the Note Registrar shall have received a representation from the transferee of such Note, satisfactory to the Note Registrar (such requirement is satisfied only by the Note Registrar’s receipt of a transfer affidavit from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto), to the effect that:

(i) such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or other plan or arrangement subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) or a church plan (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA) or other employee benefit plan or arrangement that is subject to any federal, state or local law materially similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (“Similar Law”) (each, a “Plan”) or any Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Note or interest therein on behalf of or with “plan assets” (as defined under the Department of Labor Regulation (the “DOL Regulations”) at 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 or corresponding provisions of Similar Law) of a Plan; or

(ii) the acquisition and holding of the Note or any interest therein will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under ERISA, the Code or Similar Law.

In the case of a Note that is a Book-Entry Note, for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii) of the preceding paragraph, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Note Registrar by the transferee’s acceptance of such Note that is also a Book-Entry Note (or the acceptance by a Beneficial Noteholder of the beneficial interest in such Note).

None of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor shall have any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any Note that is in fact not permitted by this Section 2.3(a) or for the Securities Administrator (or any Paying Agent on their behalf) making any payments due on such Note to its Noteholder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Noteholder under the provisions of this Indenture so long as the transfer was registered by the Note Registrar in accordance with the foregoing requirements. In addition, none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor shall be required to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions with respect to any Note in the form of a Book-Entry Note, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor shall have any liability for transfers of Book-Entry Notes or any interests therein made in violation of the restrictions on transfer described in the Prospectus and this Indenture.

In the event that a Note is transferred to a Person that does not meet the requirements of this Section 2.3, such transfer shall be of no force and effect, shall be void ab initio and shall not operate to transfer any rights to such Person, notwithstanding any instructions to the contrary to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or any intermediary. The Securities Administrator shall not make any payments on such Note for as long as such Person is the Noteholder of such Note.

The Issuer shall cause each Note to contain a legend substantially similar to the applicable legend provided in Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit A-2 hereto stating that the transfer of such Notes is subject to certain restrictions as set forth herein.

(b) Any purported transfer of a Note (or any interest therein) not in accordance with this Section 2.3 shall be void ab initio and shall not be given effect for any purpose hereunder.

(c) Any Retained Notes will be subject to the same transfer restrictions applicable to the Certificate as set forth in section 3.3 of the Owner Trust Agreement unless either (a) the Retained Notes are sold or transferred to a party that is a taxable REIT subsidiary or is not affiliated with the owner of the Certificate and at the time of such sale or transfer: (i) the owner of the Certificate is a Permitted Transferee; (ii) no modifications have been made to the transaction documents; (iii) the respective ratings of the Retained Notes as of the date of such sale or transfer is not lower than the rating of such Retained Note as of the closing date; and (iv) no adverse changes have been made to (or that would adversely affect the application of) the legal authorities applicable to the closing date tax opinion or (b) the holder of the Retained Notes otherwise receives a “will be debt” tax opinion from a law firm generally recognized to be qualified to opine concerning the tax aspects of asset securitization. For purposes of this Section 2.3(c), in determining whether a holder of Retained Notes complies with the provisions of Section 3.3 of the Owner Trust Agreement, such holder will be deemed to be the Certificateholder.

(d) None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee will have the ability, duty or obligation to monitor transfers of the Notes while they are in book-entry form and will have no liability for transfers of Book-Entry Notes in violation of any of the transfer restrictions described in this Section 2.3.

(e) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class N Note or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws. If a transfer of any Class N Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance thereof or a transfer thereof by the Depositor or one of its Affiliates), then the Note Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate from the Noteholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C-1 hereto (which in the case of Book-Entry Notes, the Note Owner will be deemed to have represented such certification) and a certificate from such Noteholder’s prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C-2 hereto (which in the case of the Book-Entry Notes, the Note Owner’s prospective transferee will be deemed to have represented such certification). None of the Issuer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note or interest therein without registration or qualification. Any Noteholder desiring to effect a transfer of Notes or interests therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Issuer, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor a certification will be required in connection with the initial transfer of any Class N Note by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor or by an Affiliate to another Affiliate (in which case, the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof shall be deemed to have represented that such Affiliate is not a Plan or any Person investing “plan assets” of any Plan) and the Note Registrar shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Note Registrar, shall be a written representation) from the Depositor of the status of such transferee as an Affiliate of the Depositor.

SECTION 2.4 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

The Issuer shall cause the Note Registrar to keep a register (the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Note Registrar may prescribe and the restrictions on transfers of the Notes set forth herein, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of Notes. The Securities Administrator shall be the initial Note Registrar. Upon any resignation of any Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note Registrar. If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator is appointed by the Issuer as Note Registrar, the Issuer will give the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator prompt written notice of the appointment of such Note Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location, of the Note Register.

The Indenture Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof, and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Note Registrar by an Executive Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders and the principal amounts and number of such Notes.

Subject to Section 2.3, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office of the Note Registrar to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, the Issuer shall execute, and the Note Registrar shall authenticate upon receipt of an Issuer Order and the Noteholder shall be entitled to obtain from the Note Registrar, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount.

At the option of the Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Note Registrar shall authenticate upon receipt of an Issuer Order and the Noteholder shall be entitled to obtain from the Note Registrar, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

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

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be (a) duly endorsed by the Noteholder thereof, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Note Registrar and (b) duly executed by the Noteholder thereof or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the Note Registrar’s requirements, including membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or another “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP.

No service charge shall be made to a Noteholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Note Registrar 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 Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to this Section 2.4 not involving any transfer.

The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Note Registrar need not register and shall not be required to transfer or exchange those Notes selected for redemption for a period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to such Note.

SECTION 2.5 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.

If (a) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar, or the Note Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (b) there is delivered to the Note Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Note Registrar harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Issuer, Note Registrar or Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, and upon certification provided by the Noteholder of such Note that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven days shall be due and payable, or shall have been called for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or upon the Redemption Date without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a protected purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar in connection therewith.

Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar may require the payment by the Noteholder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar) connected therewith.

Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note 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 Notes duly issued hereunder.

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 Notes.

SECTION 2.6 Persons Deemed Noteholders.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee and any of their agents may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the Noteholder of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee or any of their agents shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 2.7 Payment of Principal and Interest.

(a) On each Payment Date, the Securities Administrator, or the Paying Agent will be required to make payments of principal and interest on the Notes from amounts available therefor in accordance with Section 7.7 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

(b) Any installment of interest or principal payable on any Note shall be paid on the applicable Payment Date to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the related Record Date, by check, mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date or, upon written request made to the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by the Noteholder having an initial Class Principal Amount of not less than $2,500,000, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified in the request and at the expense of such Noteholder, except that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.11, with respect to Notes registered on such Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Depository (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee, except for the final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Payment Date or on the applicable Maturity Date for such class of Notes (and except for the Redemption Price for any Note called for redemption pursuant to Section 10.1), which shall be payable as provided below. The funds represented by any such checks returned undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.3.

(c) Each class of Notes shall accrue interest at the Note Interest Rate as set forth in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, and such interest shall be payable on each Payment Date, subject to Section 3.1.

(d) Interest shall be computed on each class of Offered Notes on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in each Interest Accrual Period. Interest shall be computed on the Class N Notes on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, regardless of the actual number of days elapsed. With respect to each class of Offered Notes then Outstanding, the Securities Administrator shall determine LIBOR for each applicable Interest Accrual Period on the second LIBOR Business Day prior thereto, in accordance with the provisions of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. All interest payments on each class of Notes shall be made pro rata by Percentage Interest to the Noteholders of such Class entitled thereto.

(e) The principal of the Notes shall be payable in installments on each Payment Date as provided herein and in accordance with Section 7.7 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. The entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable, if not previously paid, on the date on which an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing if the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders representing not less than a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.2. All principal payments on a class of Notes shall be made pro rata by Percentage Interest to the Noteholders of such Class entitled thereto.

(f) The Note Registrar shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Payment Date on which the Issuer expects that the final installment of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile no later than five Business Days prior to such final Payment Date and shall specify that such final installment will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. Notices in connection with redemptions of Notes shall be mailed to Noteholders as provided in Section 10.2.

SECTION 2.8 Cancellation.

All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall be delivered to the Note Registrar and shall be promptly cancelled by the Note Registrar. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Note Registrar for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Note Registrar. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Note Registrar in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to it; provided, that such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Note Registrar.

SECTION 2.9 Book-entry Notes.

(a) Each class of Notes will be issued in the form of typewritten Notes or Global Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to the initial Depository or to the Securities Administrator as custodian for the initial Depository by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Book-Entry Notes shall be registered initially on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Depository, and no Noteholder thereof will receive a Definitive Note representing such Noteholder’s interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.11.

(b) Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (the “Definitive Notes”) have been issued to such Noteholders in exchange for the Global Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes pursuant to Section 2.11:

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

(ii) the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Depository for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole holder of the Book-Entry Notes, and shall have no obligation to the Noteholders;

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

(iv) the rights of the Beneficial Noteholders shall be exercised only through the Depository and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Noteholders and the Depository and/or the Depository Participants.

(c) Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued in exchange for the Global Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes pursuant to Section 2.11:

(i) the Note Registrar shall not register any transfer of a beneficial interest in a Book-Entry Note;

(ii) the initial Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to such Depository Participants; and

(iii) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Noteholders evidencing a specified percentage of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount, the Depository shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from the Beneficial Noteholders and/or Depository Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 2.10 Notices to Depository.

Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to such Noteholders pursuant to Section 2.11, the Securities Administrator shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the Beneficial Noteholders to the Depository, and shall have no obligation to such Noteholders.

SECTION 2.11 Definitive Notes.

(a) Definitive Notes for Book-Entry Notes. If (i) the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of an Indenture Event of Default, the Beneficial Noteholders representing beneficial interests aggregating at least a majority of the then-outstanding Book-Entry Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount advise the Depository in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of such Beneficial Noteholders, then the Depository shall notify all Noteholders, the Beneficial Noteholders, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to the Beneficial Noteholders requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Securities Administrator of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute and upon receipt of an Issuer Order the Note Registrar shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the

instructions of the Depository. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall recognize the former Beneficial Noteholders as holders of the Definitive Notes and as Noteholders.

SECTION 2.12 Tax Treatment.

The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Trust Fund. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (and each Noteholder by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer, except that any Retained Notes shall not be treated as issued and outstanding indebtedness for federal income tax purposes.

ARTICLE III

COVENANTS

SECTION 3.1 Payment of Principal and Interest.

The Issuer will duly and punctually pay (or will cause to be duly and punctually paid) the principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes, the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and this Indenture. Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a payment to any Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this Indenture. In order to receive payments free from or at a reduced rate of withholding, each Noteholder, Beneficial Noteholder and any transferees thereof agree and acknowledges that no legal or beneficial interest in all or any portion of any Note may be obtained or transferred unless such person provides to the Note Registrar a duly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8IMY (together with all appropriate attachments), or IRS Form W-8ECI (or in each case the appropriate successor form) claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, United States federal withholding tax. Each such form must be signed under penalties of perjury and replaced every three years (or earlier of there is a change in information) or as required by law.

The Notes shall be non-recourse obligations of the Issuer and shall be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Fund as provided in this Indenture. The Issuer shall not otherwise be liable for payments of the Notes, and none of the owners, agents, officers, directors, employees, or successors or assigns of the Issuer shall be personally liable for any amounts payable, or performance due, under the Notes or this Indenture. If any other provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to conflict with the provisions of this Section 3.1, the provisions of this Section 3.1 shall control.

SECTION 3.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Note Registrar on behalf of the Issuer will maintain an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served.

SECTION 3.3 Money for Payments to be Held in Trust.

(a) As provided in Section 2.7, all payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment Account and paid pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Securities Administrator or by the Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from such account for payments with respect to the Notes shall be paid over to the Issuer except as provided in this Section.

(b) Any Paying Agent shall be appointed by Issuer Order with written notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee; provided that the Securities Administrator is appointed hereby as the initial Paying Agent. Any Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer shall be a Person that would be eligible to be Indenture Trustee hereunder as provided in Section 6.11. The Issuer shall not appoint any Paying Agent (other than the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee) which is not, at the time of such appointment, an institution:

(i) that has:

(A) commercial paper, short-term debt obligations, or other short-term deposits are rated at least “A-1” or long-term unsecured debt obligations are rated at least “A-” by S&P (or assigned comparable ratings by the other Rating Agencies), if the amounts on deposit are to be held in the account for no more than 365 days; or

(B) commercial paper, short-term debt obligations, demand deposits, or other short-term deposits are rated at least “A-1” by S&P, if the amounts on deposit are to be held in the account for no more than 30 days and are not intended to be used as credit enhancement; or

(c) The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee and the initial Paying Agent (who hereby makes the covenants set forth below) to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

(i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;

(i) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer of which the Paying Agent has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

(ii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

(iii) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and

(iv) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith; provided, however, that with respect to reporting requirements applicable to original issue discount, the accrual of market discount or the amortization of premium on the Notes, the Depositor shall have first provided the calculations pertaining thereto and the amount of any resulting withholding taxes to the Securities Administrator and the Paying Agent.

(d) The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Securities Administrator all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Securities Administrator, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

(e) Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Securities Administrator or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Order; and the Noteholder thereof shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Securities Administrator or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, shall give notice to the remaining Noteholders to surrender their Notes for cancellation and notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notice, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The Securities Administrator or Paying Agent 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 Noteholders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in moneys due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Securities Administrator or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Noteholder).

SECTION 3.4 Existence.

(a) The Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Trust Fund and each other instrument or agreement included in the Trust Fund.

(b) Any successor to the Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Owner Trust Agreement shall be the successor Owner Trustee under this Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper, instrument or further act to be done on the part of the parties hereto.

(c) Upon any consolidation or merger of or other succession to the Owner Trustee, the Person succeeding to the Owner Trustee under the Owner Trust Agreement may exercise every right and power of the Owner Trustee under this Indenture with the same effect as if such Person had been named as the Owner Trustee herein.

SECTION 3.5 Protection of Trust Fund.

(a) The Issuer, from time to time, will execute, deliver and file all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and will take such other action necessary or advisable to:

(i) maintain or preserve the lien and security interest (and the priority thereof) of this Indenture or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

(ii) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture;

(iii) enforce any rights with respect to the Trust Fund; or

(iv) preserve and defend title to the Trust Fund and the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in such Trust Fund against the claims of all persons and parties.

(b) The Issuer hereby designates the Indenture Trustee as its agent and attorneys-in-fact to execute any financing statement, continuation statement or other instrument required to be executed pursuant to this Section 3.5 provided to it by the Issuer.

SECTION 3.6 Opinions as to Trust Fund.

On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall furnish to the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that either, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the recording and filing of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, and any other requisite documents, and with respect to the execution and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements, as are necessary to make effective the lien and security interest of this Indenture, or stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to make such lien and security interest effective.

SECTION 3.7 Performance of Obligations.

(a) The Issuer will not take any action and will use commercially reasonable efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person from any of such Person’s material covenants or obligations under any instrument or agreement included in the Trust Fund or that would result in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as expressly provided in this Indenture, the Transfer and Servicing Agreement or any other Operative Agreement.

(b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer.

(c) The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the Operative Agreements, the Note Insurance Agreements and in the instruments and agreements included in the Trust Fund, including but not limited to filing or causing to be filed all financing statements and continuation statements required to be filed by the terms of this Indenture, the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and any other Operative Agreement or Note Insurance Agreement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and therein.

If any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be so consented to by such Noteholders, the Issuer agrees to execute and deliver, in its own name and at its own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other documents as necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.

SECTION 3.8 Negative Covenants.

So long as any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall not:

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.

In the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is authorized 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 by it or its agents, and all advances made by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

(d) 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 Noteholder 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.

(e) 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 Noteholders.

(f) 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 Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

SECTION 5.4 Remedies; Priorities.

(a) If an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction of the Noteholders representing a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount, do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.5):

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

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

(iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and

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

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate any Trust Fund following an Indenture Event of Default, other than an Indenture Event of Default described in Section 5.1(a) or 5.1(b), unless (A) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the

Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes in respect of the Class Principal Amount and interest (including any Deferred Interest, any Basis Risk Shortfall and any Deferred Interest Basis Risk Shortfall), (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation are sufficient to pay all amounts due and payable by the Issuer pursuant to the Operative Agreements; or (C) it is determined that the Trust Fund will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee receives the written direction to sell or liquidate from Noteholders evidencing 66²/3% of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation, retained at the expense of the Issuer, as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Fund for such purpose.

(b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, such money or property shall be remitted to the Securities Administrator to be distributed in accordance with Section 7.7(f) of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 5.5 Optional Preservation of the Trust Fund.

If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.2 following an Indenture Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may elect to maintain possession of the Trust Fund. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust Fund. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Fund, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion (at the expense of the Issuer) of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation, retained at the expense of the Issuer, as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Fund for such purpose.

SECTION 5.6 Limitation of Suits.

(a) Other than as otherwise expressly provided herein in the case of an Indenture Event of Default, no Noteholder shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(i) such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Indenture Event of Default;

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

(b) It is understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders 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 Noteholders or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.

(c) In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each representing less than a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount, the Indenture Trustee shall take the action requested by the holders of the largest percentage in aggregate Outstanding Class Principal Amount, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 5.7 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, any Noteholder 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 redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder.

SECTION 5.8 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the 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 5.9 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 5.10 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Indenture Default or Indenture 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.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2, the Noteholders evidencing a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount, 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) in the case of the Noteholders exercising such right and subject to the express terms of Section 5.4, any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Fund must be submitted by the Noteholders representing not less than 66²/3% of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount; and

(iii) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction; and,

(iv) the Indenture Trustee shall have been provided with indemnity satisfactory to it.

(b) Notwithstanding the rights of the Noteholders set forth in Section 5.11(a) subject to Section 6.1(h) 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 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 5.2, the Noteholders evidencing at least a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount may waive, in writing, any past Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default and its consequences except an Indenture Default (a) in payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof, which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Noteholder. 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 Indenture Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Upon any such waiver, such Indenture Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Indenture 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 Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 5.13 Undertaking for Costs.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Noteholder by such Noteholder’s 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. The provisions of this Section 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 10% of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount 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 (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

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 Action on Notes.

The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Fund or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 7.7(f) of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 5.16 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.

(a) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so, the Issuer shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller, the Credit Risk Manager, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, as applicable, of each of their obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Transfer and Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller, the Depositor, the Credit Risk Manager, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer, as applicable, under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller, the Credit Risk Manager, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer of each of their applicable obligations under Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

(b) If an Indenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of the Noteholders evidencing a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by Class Principal Amount, shall exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Seller, the Depositor, the Credit Risk Manager, the Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Securities Administrator under or in connection with the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager, the Servicer or the Securities Administrator, of each of their applicable obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended.

ARTICLE VI

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

SECTION 6.1 Duties of Indenture Trustee.

(a) If an Indenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

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

(i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture; and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and

(ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein; however, the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture.

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

(i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section;

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

(iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with this Indenture or upon a direction received by it from the requisite Noteholders pursuant to Article V; and

(iv) the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of (A) any failure by the Issuer to comply with its obligations hereunder or in the Operative Agreements or (B) any Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee assigned to and working in its corporate trust department obtains actual knowledge of such Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default or shall have received written notice thereof. In the absence of such actual knowledge or notice, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default.

(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Indenture Trustee is subject to the provisions of this Section.

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

(g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend, advance or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(h) Every provision of this Indenture or any Operative Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 and to the provisions of the TIA.

(j) The Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Trust Fund, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Indenture Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture or any other Operative Agreement and (ii) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. No implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Indenture or any Operative Agreement against the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee agrees that it will, at the cost and expense of the Issuer, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Fund that result from actions by, or claims against itself (in its individual capacity, and not in the capacity of Indenture Trustee) that are not related to the administration of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 6.2 Rights of Indenture Trustee.

(a) The Indenture Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

(b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, which shall not be at the expense of the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good

faith in reliance on an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The right of the Indenture Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture or in any Operative Agreement shall not be construed as a duty and the Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such act.

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

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

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

(f) In the event that the Indenture Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or Master Servicer hereunder or under any Operative Agreement, the rights and protections afforded to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall be afforded to such Paying Agent, Note Registrar and Master Servicer.

(g) The permissive rights of the Indenture Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties.

(h) In order to comply with its duties under the USA Patriot Act of 2001, the Indenture Trustee shall obtain and verify certain documentation from the other parties to this Indenture, including, but not limited to, each party’s name, address, and other identifying information.

SECTION 6.3 Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee.

(a) The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the Noteholder or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Section 6.11.

SECTION 6.4 Indenture Trustee’s Disclaimer.

(a) The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of any of the Operative Agreements or the Notes or the sufficiency of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 6.5 Notice of Indenture Defaults.

If an Indenture Default occurs and is continuing and if a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge thereof, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to each Noteholder.

SECTION 6.6 Reserved.

SECTION 6.7 Compensation and Indemnity.

The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled, as compensation for its services, to the Indenture Trustee Fee, as provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Indenture Trustee and any co-trustee shall be reimbursed on behalf of the Issuer from funds in the Payment Account, as provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, for all reasonable ordinary out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services (as provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement). Reimbursable expenses under this Section shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee, any co-trustee and their respective employees, directors and agents, as provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, against any and all claim, loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder or under any Operative Agreement. The Indenture Trustee or co-trustee, as applicable, shall notify the Issuer and the Securities Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee or the co-trustee, as applicable, to so notify the Issuer and the Securities Administrator shall not relieve the Issuer or the Securities Administrator of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee and any co-trustee may have separate counsel and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be payable on behalf of the Issuer from funds in the Payment Account. The Issuer shall not be required to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee or any co-trustee through the Indenture Trustee’s or co-trustee’s, as the case may be, own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

The Issuer’s obligations to the Indenture Trustee and any co-trustee pursuant to this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and the termination or discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee or any co-trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Indenture Default specified in Section 5.1(d) or 5.1(e) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

SECTION 6.8 Replacement of Indenture Trustee.

(a) No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of such appointment by

the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section. The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by giving 90 days’ written notice thereof to the Depositor, the Issuer, each Noteholder and each Rating Agency. The Depositor may remove the Indenture Trustee if:

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

(ii) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

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

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

(b) If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee that satisfies the eligibility requirements of Section 6.11.

(c) The resigning or removed Indenture Trustee agrees to cooperate with any successor Indenture Trustee in effecting the termination of the resigning or removed Indenture Trustee’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly provide such successor Indenture Trustee all documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Indenture Trustee’s functions hereunder.

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

(e) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Noteholders evidencing a majority of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

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

SECTION 6.9 Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger.

If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided, that such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide each Rating Agency prior written notice of any such transaction.

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee.

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

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

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

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

(ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

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

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this

Indenture and the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

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

SECTION 6.11 Eligibility; Disqualification.

The Indenture Trustee shall at all times:

(b) have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recently published annual report of condition;

SECTION 6.12 Representations and Warranties.

The Indenture Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the other parties hereto as of the Closing Date or such other date as is specified, that:

(a) The Indenture Trustee has been duly organized and is validly existing as a national banking association in good standing under the laws of the United States of America, with full power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business as presently being conducted.

(b) The Indenture Trustee has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this Indenture and to perform its obligations hereunder, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Indenture (including all instruments of transfer to be delivered pursuant to this Indenture) by the Indenture Trustee and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized.

(c) This Indenture constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Indenture Trustee, enforceable against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

SECTION 6.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.

The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). An Indenture Trustee which has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

SECTION 7.4 Reports by Indenture Trustee.

If required by TIA Section 313(a), within 60 days after each March 1, beginning with March 1, 2006, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder as required by TIA Section 313(c) a brief report dated as of such date that complies with TIA Section 313(a).

(c) The Indenture Trustee shall, if requested by the Servicer, temporarily release to such party the Mortgage File pursuant to the provisions of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and the Custodial Agreement; provided, however, that the Mortgage File shall have been stamped to signify the Issuer’s pledge to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as there are no Notes that are Outstanding and all sums due to the Noteholders pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and all fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Note Registrar and the Master Servicer pursuant to this Indenture, the Note Insurance Agreements or any other Operative Agreement have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Trust Fund that secured the Notes from the lien of this Indenture and release to the Issuer or any other Person entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Collateral Account. The Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture pursuant to this subsection 8.2 only upon receipt of an Issuer Request accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and (if required by the TIA) Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) meeting the applicable requirements of Section 11.1 hereof.

ARTICLE IX

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

SECTION 9.1 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders.

(a) Without the consent of any Noteholder but with prior notice to each Rating Agency, the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more supplemental indentures (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of the execution thereof), in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

(i) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property;

(ii) to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable provisions hereof, of another person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and contained in the Notes;

(iii) to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Noteholders, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer;

(iv) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to or with the Indenture Trustee;

(v) (A) to cure any ambiguity, (B) to correct or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or in any supplemental indenture or to conform the provisions hereof to those of any Prospectus, (C) to obtain or maintain a rating for a class of Notes from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, (D) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to clause (D) of this subclause (v) shall adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder not consenting thereto;

(vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI; or

(vii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel;

provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall be entered into unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the holder of the Certificate stating that such supplemental indenture (i) will not cause the Trust to be subject to United States federal income tax at an entity level and (ii) will not cause the Notes, other than any Retained Notes, to lose their status as debt for United States federal income tax purposes.

The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator are hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained.

(b) A letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to this Section 9.1 will not cause the then-current ratings on the Notes to be qualified, reduced or withdrawn (without regard to the Note Insurance Policy) shall constitute conclusive evidence that such amendment does not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Noteholders.

SECTION 9.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders.

The Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may, with prior notice to each Rating Agency and with the consent of the Noteholders representing not less than 66²/3% of the then-outstanding Notes by aggregate Class Principal Amount, by Act of such Noteholders delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in

any manner the rights of the Noteholders under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Noteholder of each Note affected, adversely affect the interests of such Noteholders by (i) reducing in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments in respect of any Note, (ii) altering the obligations of the Servicer or the Master Servicer to make an Advance or altering the servicing standards set forth in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, (iii) reducing the aforesaid percentages of Notes the Noteholders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Noteholders of all Notes affected thereby or (iv) permitting the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Fund or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminating the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or depriving any Noteholder of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture; provided, further, that no such supplemental indenture shall be entered into unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the holder of the Certificate stating that such supplemental indenture (i) will not cause the Trust to be subject to United States federal income tax at the entity level and (ii) will not cause the Notes, other than any Retained Notes, to lose their status as debt for United States federal income tax purposes.

The Indenture Trustee may rely on an Opinion of Counsel to determine whether or not any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination shall be conclusive upon all Noteholders, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder.

It shall not be necessary under this Section for any Noteholders to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if the Noteholders approve the substance thereof.

Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section, the Issuer shall mail to the Noteholders to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates, and each Rating Agency a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

SECTION 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures.

In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel to the effect provided below, in addition to the documents required under Section 11.1. Each of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee’s or the Securities Administrator’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

In connection with any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such supplemental

indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent to the execution of such supplemental indenture in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Article IX have been met.

Nothing in this Section shall be construed to require that any Person obtain the consent of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator to any amendment or waiver of any provision of any document where the making of such amendment or the giving of such waiver without obtaining the consent of the Indenture Trustee is not prohibited by this Indenture or by the terms of the document that is the subject of the proposed amendment or waiver.

SECTION 9.4 Effect of Supplemental Indenture.

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

SECTION 9.5 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.

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

SECTION 9.6 Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall, bear a notation in a form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Note Registrar in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

ARTICLE X

REDEMPTION OF NOTES

SECTION 10.1 Redemption.

The Notes are subject to redemption pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. If the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Certificateholder or the Servicer, as applicable, shall furnish notice of its exercise of its option to redeem the Notes to the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer no later than 20 days prior to the Redemption Date and

the Depositor or the Servicer, as applicable, shall deposit the Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed no later than the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date with the Securities Administrator in the Payment Account, whereupon all such Notes shall be due and payable on the Redemption Date upon the furnishing of a notice complying with Section 10.2 hereof to each Noteholder. The Issuer shall furnish each Rating Agency notice of such redemption.

SECTION 10.2 Form of Redemption Notice.

(a) Notice of redemption under Section 10.1 shall be given by the Securities Administrator by first-class mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile mailed or transmitted not later than 10 days prior to the applicable Redemption Date to the Indenture Trustee and each Noteholder, as of the close of business on the Record Date preceding the applicable Redemption Date, at such Noteholder’s address or facsimile number appearing in the Note Register.

(b) All notices of redemption shall state:

(i) the Redemption Date;

(ii) the Redemption Price; and

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

(c) Notice of redemption of the Notes shall be given by the Securities Administrator in the name and at the expense of the Issuer. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any Noteholder shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note.

SECTION 10.3 Notes Payable on Redemption Date.

The Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed shall, following notice of redemption as required under Section 10.2 (in the case of redemption pursuant to Section 10.1) and remittance to the Securities Administrator of the Redemption Price as required under Section 10.1, on the Redemption Date become due and payable at the Redemption Price and (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) no interest shall accrue on the Redemption Price for any period after the date to which accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 11.1 Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc.

(a) Upon any application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, Note Registrar or Paying Agent to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee, Securities Administrator, the

Note Registrar or the Paying Agent, as applicable: (i) an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with, (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, and (iii) if required by the TIA, an Independent Certificate from a firm of Independent Accountants meeting the applicable requirements of this Section, except that, in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

(b) 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;

(iii) a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory, such signatory has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable such signatory to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

(iv) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

SECTION 11.2 Form of Documents Delivered.

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, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such officer’s 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 Depositor, the Issuer, the Servicer or the Master Servicer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Servicer or the Master Servicer, 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.

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 into one instrument.

In connection with any application or certificate or report, if the Issuer is required to deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application or as evidence of the Issuer’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the 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 right of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Paying Agent or the Note Registrar to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI.

SECTION 11.3 Acts of Noteholders.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders 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. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee and, if 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 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

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

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by any Noteholder shall bind the Noteholder 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 11.4 Notices, etc., to the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Issuer and the Rating Agencies.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of any Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing. If such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of any Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

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

(ii) the Securities Administrator or the Note Registrar by the Indenture Trustee, by any Noteholder or by the Issuer, it shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Securities Administrator or the Note Registrar at its Corporate Trust Office as applicable; or

(iii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee, by the Securities Administrator or by any Noteholder, it shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to the address provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

(b) Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the address provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement or such other address as shall be designated by written notice to the other parties.

SECTION 11.5 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at such Noteholder’s address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. 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.

If it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event of Noteholders due to suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, any manner of giving such notice that is satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be sufficient.

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 Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default.

SECTION 11.6 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.

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

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

SECTION 11.7 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

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

SECTION 11.8 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, co-trustees and agents.

SECTION 11.9 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 and Consents of Noteholders.

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, the Owner Trustee and the Noteholders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. Each Noteholder, by acceptance of a Note or a beneficial interest in a Note, consents to and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

SECTION 11.11 Legal Holidays.

If the date on which any payment is due is not a Business Day, notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture, payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

SECTION 11.12 Governing Law.

This indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law provisions (other than Section 5-1401 of the general obligations law), and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

SECTION 11.13 Counterparts.

This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

SECTION 11.14 Recording of Indenture.

If this Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (which may be counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

SECTION 11.15 Trust Obligations.

(a) No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Securities Administrator or the Owner Trustee in their respective individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, or the Owner Trustee in its respective individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Securities Administrator and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations in their respective individual capacities) and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles V, VI and VII of the Owner Trust Agreement.

(b) In addition, (i) this Indenture is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not individually or personally but solely as Owner Trustee, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (ii) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Trust Company but is

made and intended for the purpose for binding only the Trust, (iii) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust Company, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the Indenture Trustee and by any Person claiming by, through or under the Indenture Trustee, and (iv) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Operative Agreements.

SECTION 11.16 No Petition.

The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenant and agree that they will not at any time institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any of the Operative Agreements, provided, however, the foregoing shall not prohibit the filing of proofs of claim.

SECTION 11.17 Inspection.

The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, during the Issuer’s normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent Accountants, and to discuss the Issuer’s affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer’s officers, employees and Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall, and shall cause its representatives to, hold in confidence all such information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law or any regulatory or administrative authority, and except to the extent that the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator may reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder, provided, further, that the Indenture Trustee may disclose on a confidential basis and such information to its agents, attorneys and auditors in connection with the performance of its responsibilities under this Indenture or any Operative Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee have caused this Indenture to be duly executed by their respective officers, thereunto duly authorized and duly attested, all as of the day and year first above written.

[Date]

[NOTE REGISTRAR]

Re: FBR Securitization Trust 2005-5 Notes ( the “Notes”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the sale by (the “Transferor”) to (the “Transferee”) of the Notes having an initial aggregate Note Balance as of December 15, 2005 (the “Closing Date”) of $ (the “Transferred Notes”). The Notes, including the Transferred Notes, were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among FBR Securitization Trust 2005-5 (the “Issuer”), Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (the “Indenture Trustee”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as securities administrator. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Note Registrar, and for the benefit of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Transferee, that:

1. The Transferor is the lawful owner of the Transferred Notes with the full right to transfer such Notes free from any and all claims and encumbrances whatsoever.

2. Neither the Transferor nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a) offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of any Note, any interest in any Note or any other similar security to any person in any manner, (b) solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge or other disposition of any Note, any interest in any Note or any other similar security from any person in any manner, (c) otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to any Note, any interest in any Note or any other similar security with any person in any manner, (d) made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or (e) taken any other action, which (in the case of any of the acts described in clauses (a) through (e) hereof) would constitute a distribution of any Note under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or would render the disposition of any Note a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act or any state securities laws, or would require registration or qualification of any Note pursuant to the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

3. The Transferor and any person acting on behalf of the Transferor in this matter reasonably believe that the Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act (a “Qualified Institutional Buyer”) purchasing for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer. In determining whether the Transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer, the

C-1-1

Transferor and any person acting on behalf of the Transferor in this matter have relied upon the following method(s) of establishing the Transferee’s ownership and discretionary investments of securities (check one or more):

(a) The Transferee’s most recent publicly available financial statements, which statements present the information as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Note in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or

(b) The most recent publicly available information appearing in documents filed by the Transferee with the Securities and Exchange Commission or another United States federal, state, or local governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, or with a foreign governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, which information is as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Note in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or

(c) The most recent publicly available information appearing in a recognized securities manual, which information is as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Note in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or

(d) A certification by the chief financial officer, a person fulfilling an equivalent function, or other executive officer of the Transferee, specifying the amount of securities owned and invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee as of a specific date on or since the close of the Transferee’s most recent fiscal year, or, in the case of a Transferee that is a member of a “family of investment companies”, as that term is defined in Rule 144A, a certification by an executive officer of the investment adviser specifying the amount of securities owned by the “family of investment companies” as of a specific date on or since the close of the Transferee’s most recent fiscal year.

4. The Transferor and any person acting on behalf of the Transferor understand that in determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and invested on a discretionary basis by an entity for purposes of establishing whether such entity is a Qualified Institutional Buyer:
