Each such Equipment Note shall evidence the loan made by the Loan Participant to the Owner, each such Equipment Note to be substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.01, with deletions and insertions as appropriate, duly authenticated by the Indenture Trustee and dated the Closing Date, and as having been issued in connection with the Equipment under a related Indenture Supplement. The Equipment Notes will be issued in registered form only.
The principal amount of and interest on each Equipment Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture shall be payable on each Payment Date, and in the case of the principal amount of such Equipment Note, in installments payable on the date and in the amounts set forth in Annex A hereto. Interest is payable on the Equipment Notes at the Debt Rate (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) on the principal amount thereof remaining unpaid from time to time from and including the immediately preceding Payment Date to but excluding the date of payment.
Each Equipment Note shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Late Rate (calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of twelve 30-day months) on any part of the principal amount, any Make-Whole Amount, if applicable, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest and any other amounts payable thereunder not paid when due for any period during which the same shall be overdue, in each case for the period the same is overdue. Amounts under any Equipment Note shall be overdue if not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise).
The Equipment Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Owner by one of its authorized officers. Equipment Notes bearing the signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Owner shall bind the Owner, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Equipment Notes or did not hold such offices at the respective dates of such Equipment Notes. The Owner may from time to time execute and deliver Equipment Notes with respect to the Equipment to the Indenture Trustee for authentication upon original issue and such Equipment Notes shall thereupon be authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee upon the written request of the Owner signed by an authorized officer of the Owner.
No Equipment Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless it shall have been authenticated by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by manual or facsimile signature.
2.03. Method of Payment. (a) The principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest on each Equipment Note and other amounts due under the Equipment Notes or hereunder will be payable in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. Chicago, Illinois time, on the due date thereof at the principal corporate trust services office of the Indenture Trustee or as otherwise directed in the manner provided herein and payment of such
8
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
amounts to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to satisfy the Owners obligation to make such payment. The Owner shall not have any responsibility for the distribution of such payment to any holder of an Equipment Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Equipment Note to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee will pay, or cause to be paid, if so requested by any holder of an Equipment Note by written notice to the Owner and the Indenture Trustee, all amounts payable by the Owner hereunder to such holder or a nominee therefor either (i) by transferring by wire in immediately available funds prior to 2:00 p.m., Chicago, Illinois time on the due date of payment, to an account maintained by such holder with a bank in the United States the amount to be distributed to such holder or (ii) by mailing a check denominated in U.S. dollars to such holder at such address as such holder shall have specified in such notice. If the Indenture Trustee shall fail to make any such payment as provided in the immediately foregoing sentence after its receipt of funds at the place and prior to the time specified above, the Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity and not as trustee, agrees to compensate such holders for loss of use of funds at the then applicable federal funds rate until such payment is made and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to any interest earned on such funds until such payment is made. Any payment made hereunder shall be made without any presentment or surrender of any Equipment Note, except that, in the case of the final payment in respect of any Equipment Note, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation promptly after such payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to make, or cause to be made, wire transfers as aforesaid prior to the first Business Day on which it is practicable for the Indenture Trustee to do so in view of the time of day when the funds to be so transferred were received by it if such funds were received after 1:00 p.m., Chicago, Illinois time, at the place of payment. So long as any signatory to the Participation Agreement or nominee thereof shall be a registered holder of an Equipment Note, all payments to it shall be made to the account of such holder specified in Schedule 2 thereto and otherwise in the manner provided in or pursuant to the Participation Agreement unless it shall have specified some other account or manner of payment by notice to the Indenture Trustee consistent with this Section 2.03.
(b) Whenever the date scheduled for any payment to be made hereunder or under any Equipment Note shall not be a Business Day, then such payment need not be made on such scheduled date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such scheduled date and (provided such payment is made on such next succeeding Business Day) no interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment from and after such scheduled date to the time of such payment on such next succeeding Business Day.
(c) The Indenture Trustee, as agent for the Owner, shall exclude and withhold at the appropriate rate from each payment of principal of, interest on, any Make-Whole Amount, if applicable, and other amounts due hereunder or under each Equipment Note (and such exclusion and withholding shall constitute payment in respect of such Equipment Note) any and all United States withholding taxes applicable thereto as required by Law. The Indenture Trustee agrees to act as such withholding agent and, in connection therewith, whenever any present or future United States taxes or similar charges are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable hereunder or in respect of the Equipment Notes, to withhold such amounts and timely pay the same to the appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of the Note Holders, that it will file any necessary United States withholding tax returns or statements when due, and that as promptly as possible after the payment thereof it will deliver to each Note
9
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
Holder (with a copy to the Owner) appropriate receipts showing the payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as any such Note Holder may reasonably request from time to time.
If a Note Holder which is a Non-U.S. Person has furnished to the Indenture Trustee a properly completed and accurate U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8EXP, W-8IMY or W-8ECI (or such successor form or forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department) that is effective at the time a payment hereunder or under the Equipment Note(s) held by such holder is made and has not notified the Indenture Trustee of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such form prior to the date of such payment (and the Indenture Trustee has no reason to believe that any information set forth in such form is inaccurate), the Indenture Trustee shall withhold only the amount, if any, required by law (after taking into account any applicable exemptions properly claimed by the Note Holder) to be withheld from payments hereunder or under the Equipment Notes held by such holder in respect of United States federal income tax. If a Note Holder (x) which is a Non-U.S. Person has furnished to the Indenture Trustee a properly completed, accurate and currently effective U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI in duplicate (or such successor certificate, form or forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department as necessary in order to properly avoid withholding of United States federal income tax), for each calendar year in which a payment is made (but prior to the making of any payment for such year), and has not notified the Indenture Trustee of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such certificate or form prior to the date of such payment (and the Indenture Trustee has no reason to believe that any information set forth in such form is inaccurate) or (y) which is a U.S. Person has furnished to the Indenture Trustee a properly completed, accurate and currently effective U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, if applicable, prior to a payment hereunder or under the Equipment Notes held by such holder, no amount shall be withheld from payments in respect of United States federal income tax. If any Note Holder has notified the Indenture Trustee that any of the foregoing forms or certificates is withdrawn or inaccurate, or if such holder has not filed a form claiming an exemption from United States withholding tax or if the Code or the regulations thereunder or the administrative interpretation thereof is at any time after the date hereof amended to require such withholding of United States federal income taxes from payments under the Equipment Notes held by such holder, the Indenture Trustee agrees to withhold from each payment due to the relevant Note Holder United States federal withholding taxes at the appropriate rate under Law and will, on a timely basis as more fully provided above, deposit such amounts with an authorized depository and make such returns, statements, receipts and other documentary evidence in connection therewith as required by Law.
The Owner shall not have any liability for the failure of the Indenture Trustee to withhold United States federal taxes in the manner provided for herein or for any false, inaccurate or untrue evidence provided by any Note Holder hereunder.
2.04. Application of Payments to Principal Amount and Interest. In the case of each Equipment Note, each payment of principal thereof and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest thereon shall be applied, first, to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest on such Equipment Note then due thereunder, second, to the payment of the unpaid principal amount of such Equipment Note then due thereunder, third, to the payment of any Make-Whole Amount then due thereon and fourth, to the payment of the remaining outstanding principal amount of
10
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
such Equipment Note; provided, that the Owner may only prepay such Equipment Note in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.09, 3.02 and 3.03 hereof.
2.05. Termination of Interest in Indenture Estate. A Note Holder shall have no further interest in, or other right with respect to, the Indenture Estate when and if the principal amount of and interest on all Equipment Notes held by such Note Holder and all other sums payable to such Note Holder hereunder and under such Equipment Notes and under the Participation Agreement shall have been paid in full.
2.06. Transfer of Equipment Notes. The Indenture Trustee shall maintain at its corporate trust services office in Hartford, Connecticut or in the city in which the corporate trust office of a successor Indenture Trustee is located, a register (the Equipment Note Register) for the purpose of registering transfers and exchanges of Equipment Notes. A holder of an Equipment Note intending to transfer such Equipment Note to a new payee, or to exchange any Equipment Note or Equipment Notes of any Series held by it for an Equipment Note or Equipment Notes of a different denomination or denominations, may surrender such Equipment Note or Equipment Notes to the Indenture Trustee at such principal corporate trust administration office of the Indenture Trustee, together with a written request from such holder for the issuance of a new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes of such Series, specifying the denomination or denominations (each of which shall be not less than $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof or such smaller denomination as may be necessary due to the original issuance of Equipment Notes of the applicable maturity in an aggregate principal amount not evenly divisible by $1,000,000) of the same, and, in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, the name and address of the transferee or transferees. Promptly upon receipt of such documents, the Owner will issue, and the Indenture Trustee will authenticate, a new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes in the same aggregate principal amount and dated the same date or dates as, with the same payment schedule, in the form set forth in Section 2.01 in the same maturity and bearing the same interest rate as the Equipment Note or Equipment Notes surrendered, in such denomination or denominations and payable to such payee or payees as shall be specified in the written request from such holder. All Equipment Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Equipment Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Owner evidencing the same respective obligations, and entitled to the same security and benefits under this Indenture, as the Equipment Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. The Indenture Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes of the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal and interest previously made on the old Equipment Note or Equipment Notes with respect to which such new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes is or are issued. From time to time, the Indenture Trustee will provide the Owner with such information as it may request as to the registered holders of Equipment Notes. The Owner shall not be required to exchange any surrendered Equipment Notes as above provided during the 10-day period preceding the due date of any payment on such Equipment Notes.
Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of an Equipment Note, the Owner and the Indenture Trustee may deem and treat the registered holder of such Equipment Note as the absolute owner and holder of such Equipment Note for the purpose of receiving payment of all amounts payable with respect to such Equipment Note and for all other purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
11
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
The Indenture Trustee will promptly notify the Owner of each request for a registration of transfer of an Equipment Note. The Indenture Trustee will promptly cancel and destroy all Equipment Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section. Any such transferee of an Equipment Note, by its acceptance of an Equipment Note, (i) agrees to the provisions of this Indenture and the Participation Agreement applicable to Note Holders, including Sections 5.3, 7 and 9.1 of the Participation Agreement and shall be deemed to have covenanted to the parties to the Participation Agreement as to the matters covenanted by the original Note Holder in the Participation Agreement and (ii) shall be deemed to have made the representation and warranty set forth in Section 5.3(c) of the Participation Agreement. Subject to compliance by the Note Holder and its transferee (if any) of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.06, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner shall use all reasonable efforts to issue new Equipment Notes upon transfer or exchange within ten Business Days of the date an Equipment Note is surrendered for transfer or exchange.
2.07. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Equipment Notes. If any Equipment Note of any Series shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Owner shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Equipment Note, issue, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in replacement thereof, a new Equipment Note of such Series in the form set forth in Section 2.01, payable to the same holder in the same principal amount, of the same maturity, with the same payment schedule, bearing the same interest rate and dated the same date as the Equipment Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen. The Indenture Trustee shall make a notation on each new Equipment Note of the amount of all payments or prepayments of principal and interest theretofore made on the Equipment Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and the date to which interest on such old Equipment Note has been paid. If the Equipment Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Equipment Note shall be surrendered to the Indenture Trustee and forwarded to the Owner by the Indenture Trustee. If the Equipment Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the holder of such Equipment Note shall furnish to the Owner and the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save the Owner and the Indenture Trustee harmless and evidence satisfactory to the Owner and the Indenture Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Equipment Note and of the ownership thereof.
2.08. Payment of Transfer Taxes. Upon the transfer of any Equipment Note or Equipment Notes pursuant to Section 2.06, the Owner or the Indenture Trustee may require from the party requesting such new Equipment Note or Equipment Notes payment of a sum to reimburse the Owner or the Indenture Trustee for, or to provide funds for the payment of, any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith.
2.09. Prepayments.
(a) Each Equipment Note of any Series shall be prepaid in whole or in part by the Owner on the date on which the Owner is required to make a payment under Section 4.06(b) in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Loss or the deemed occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to any Unit or Units related to such Equipment Note if such Unit or Units are not replaced pursuant to Section 4.06(b)(i), at a price equal to the sum of (i) as to principal thereof, an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Equipment Note as at such prepayment date (after deducting therefrom the
12
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
principal installment, if any, due on such date) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Equipment Cost of such Unit or Units and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate Equipment Cost of all Units of the relevant Basic Group included in the Indenture Estate under the related Indenture Supplement immediately prior to such date, and (ii) as to interest, the aggregate amount of interest accrued and unpaid in respect of the principal amount to be prepaid pursuant to clause (i) above to but not including the date of prepayment, but without the payment of any Make-Whole Amount or other premium.
(b) At any time all (but not less than all) of the Equipment Notes related to any Basic Group may be redeemed by the Owner upon at least 30 days revocable prior written notice to the Indenture Trustee, and such Equipment Notes shall be redeemed in whole at a redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount thereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the date of redemption, and, in each case, all other amounts owed or then due and payable to the Note Holders under the Operative Agreements, plus Make-Whole Amount, if any. Upon the payment in full of all of the Equipment Notes related to any Basic Group and all other amounts due and payable under this Section 2.09(b), the Equipment of such Basic Group shall be released from the Lien of this Indenture.
2.10. Redemptions; Notice of Redemption.
(a) No redemption of any Equipment Note may be made except to the extent and in the manner expressly permitted by this Indenture.
(b) Notice of redemption with respect to the Equipment Notes shall be given by the Indenture Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 20 nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable redemption date, to each Note Holder of the Equipment Notes to be redeemed, at such Note Holders address appearing in the Equipment Note Register; provided that, in the case of a redemption made pursuant to Section 2.09(b), such notice shall be revocable by written notice from the Owner to Indenture Trustee given not later than three days prior to the redemption date. All notices of redemption shall state: (1) the redemption date, (2) the applicable basis for determining the redemption price, (3) that on the redemption date, the redemption price will become due and payable upon each such Equipment Note, and that, if any such Equipment Notes are then outstanding, interest on such Equipment Notes shall cease to accrue on and after such redemption date upon payment of the redemption price, and (4) the place or places where such Equipment Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.
(c) On or before the redemption date, the Owner (or any person on behalf of the Owner) shall, to the extent an amount equal to the redemption price for the Equipment Notes to be redeemed on the redemption date shall not then be held by the Indenture Trustee, deposit or cause to be deposited with the Indenture Trustee by 12:00 p.m. Chicago, Illinois time on the redemption date in immediately available funds the redemption price of the Equipment Notes to be redeemed.
(d) Notice of redemption having been given and not revoked as aforesaid, the Equipment Notes to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the
13
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
corporate trust office of the Indenture Trustee or at any office or agency maintained for such purposes pursuant to Section 2.06, and from and after such redemption date (unless there shall be a default in the payment of the redemption price) such Equipment Notes then outstanding shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Equipment Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Equipment Note shall be redeemed at the redemption price. If any Equipment Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal amount of such Equipment Note shall, until paid, continue to bear interest from the applicable redemption date at the interest rate in effect for such Equipment Note as of such redemption date.
2.11. Equally and Ratably Secured. All Equipment Notes at any time outstanding under this Indenture shall be equally and ratably secured hereby without preference, priority or distinction on account of the date or dates or the actual time or times of the issue or maturity of such Equipment Notes so that all Equipment Notes at any time issued and outstanding hereunder shall have the same rights, Liens and preferences under and by virtue of this Indenture.

ARTICLE IV
COVENANTS OF THE OWNER
4.01. Marking of Equipment.
(a) Duty to Number and Mark Equipment. The Owner will, on or prior to the Closing Date, cause, and as soon as practicable after the date on which an Indenture Supplement is executed and delivered in respect of a Replacement Unit pursuant to Section 4.06(b), the Owner will cause, each Unit to be numbered with a reporting mark shown on the Indenture Supplement dated the date on which such Unit was delivered and covering such Unit, and will
16
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
from and after such date keep and maintain, plainly, distinctly, permanently and conspicuously marked by a plate or stencil printed in contrasting colors upon each side of each Unit, in letters not less than one inch in height, a legend substantially as follows:
OWNERSHIP SUBJECT TO A SECURITY AGREEMENT FILED WITH THE SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD
with appropriate changes thereof and additions thereto as from time to time may be required by law in order to protect the rights of the Indenture Trustee. Except as provided hereinabove, the Owner will not place any such Units in operation or exercise any control or dominion over the same until the required legend shall have been so marked on both sides thereof, and will replace promptly any such word or words in such legend which may be removed, defaced, obliterated or destroyed. The Owner will not change the reporting mark of any Unit except in accordance with a statement of new reporting marks to be substituted therefor, which statement shall be delivered by the Owner to the Indenture Trustee prior to or contemporaneously with such change. A supplement to this Indenture, with respect to such new reporting marks, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with the substitution of such reporting marks, be filed or recorded in all public offices where this Indenture shall have been filed or recorded. The costs and expenses of all such supplements, filings and recordings shall be borne by the Owner.
4.02. Prohibition Against Certain Designations. Except as above provided, the Owner will not allow the name of any Person to be placed on any Unit as a designation that might reasonably be interpreted as a claim of ownership; provided, however, that subject to the delivery of the statement of new reporting marks specified in Section 4.01, the Owner may cause the Equipment to be lettered with the names or initials or other insignia customarily used by the Owner or any lessee under a Permitted Lease or any of their respective Affiliates on railroad equipment used by it of the same or a similar type for convenience of identification of the right of the Owner to use the Equipment hereunder or any permitted lessee to use the Equipment pursuant to a lease permitted hereby.
4.03. Liens. The Owner will not directly or indirectly create, incur, assume, permit or suffer to exist any Lien on or with respect to any Unit, title thereto or the Owners interest therein, except Permitted Liens and Liens described in Sections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) of the Participation Agreement. The Owner shall promptly, at its own expense, take such action or cause such action to be taken as may be necessary to duly discharge (by bonding or otherwise) any such Lien not excepted above if the same shall arise at any time.
4.04. Maintenance; Possession; Compliance with Laws.
(a) Maintenance and Operation. The Owner, at its own cost and expense, shall maintain, repair and keep each Unit, (i) according to prudent industry practice, in good working order, and in good physical condition for railcars of a similar age and usage, normal wear and tear excepted, (ii) in a manner consistent with maintenance practices used by the Owner in respect of equipment owned or leased by the Owner similar in type to such Unit, (iii) in accordance in all material respects with all manufacturers warranties in effect and in accordance with all applicable provisions, if any, of insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to Section 4.07, (iv) in compliance in all material respects with any applicable laws and
17
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
regulations, including, without limitation, the Field Manual of the AAR, FRA rules and regulations and Interchange Rules as they apply to the maintenance and operation of the Equipment in interchange regardless of upon whom such applicable laws and regulations are nominally imposed and (v) in a condition mechanically suitable for interchange by an operator in revenue service; provided, however, that the Owner may, in good faith and by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted, contest the validity or application of any such standard, rule or regulation in any reasonable manner which does not materially interfere with the use, possession or operation of any of the Units or materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Equipment or hereunder or otherwise expose the Indenture Trustee or the Loan Participant to criminal sanctions. In no event shall the Owner discriminate as to the use or maintenance of any Unit (including the periodicity of maintenance or record keeping in respect of such Unit) as compared to equipment of a similar nature which the Owner owns or leases. The Owner will maintain all records, logs and other materials required by relevant industry standards or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Units required to be maintained in respect of any Unit.
(b) Possession. The Owner shall be entitled to the possession of the Equipment and to the use of the Equipment by it or any Affiliate, in the United States and, subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 4.04(b) and Section 4.04(c), Canada and Mexico, only in the manner for which it was designed and intended and so as to subject it only to ordinary wear and tear. In no event shall the Owner make use of any Equipment in any jurisdiction not included in the insurance coverage required by Section 4.07. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than 20% of the Units shall at any time be used or located in Mexico so long as Mexican law does not afford rights, remedies and protections to the Indenture Trustee comparable to U.S. law and unless the Owner shall first have taken all actions necessary so as to protect the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Equipment in Mexico and shall have furnished the Indenture Trustee with an opinion of Mexican counsel, such counsel and opinion to be reasonably satisfactory to such parties, to the effect that all such filings and recordings of the related Operative Agreements have been taken and effected under Mexican law.
(c) Lease. The Owner shall be entitled, without the prior approval of the Indenture Trustee, to enter into a lease for any Unit or Units (pursuant to a car service contract or otherwise) to, or to grant permission for the use thereof under car contracts by, (i) a railroad company or companies incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, Canada or any province thereof, or Mexico or any state thereof (subject in all cases to Section 4.04(b)), upon lines of railroad owned or operated by such railroad company or companies or over which such railroad company or companies have trackage rights or rights for operation of their trains, and upon connecting and other carriers in the usual interchange of traffic or (ii) responsible companies (i.e., a company with which the Owner would do business in the ordinary course of the Owners business with respect to railcars which it owns, leases or manages) other than railroad companies for use in their business (leases to such lessees described in (i) and (ii) being herein referred to as Permitted Leases). All Permitted Leases shall include appropriate provisions so that such leases (i) either (A) shall in all events be expressly subject and subordinate to this Indenture and the rights and interests of Indenture Trustee and its respective successors and assigns hereunder or (B) shall be assigned to the Indenture Trustee, and its successors and assigns, as security for the Owners obligations under the Owner Agreements, shall not contain purchase options binding on the Owner without
18
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
action or consent by the Indenture Trustee, shall have been entered into on an arms-length basis and shall, on the date entered into, be on commercially reasonable terms and the Indenture Trustee and its successors and assigns agree to deliver a non-disturbance agreement to the relevant lessee, (ii) if such Permitted Lease is not expressly subject and subordinate to this Indenture, such Permitted Lease shall not be for a term which extends beyond the Final Maturity Date and (iii) contain inspection rights in favor of the Owner and its designees. In the event the Owner desires to lease one or more Units under a non-subject and subordinated Permitted Lease for a term which extends beyond the Final Maturity Date, the Owner will have the option to replace such Unit with another unit in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 4.06(b) and 4.06(c). No Permitted Lease entered into by the Owner hereunder shall relieve the Owner of any liability or obligation hereunder, which shall be and remain those of a principal and not a surety. Nothing in this Section 4.04(c) shall be deemed to constitute permission to any Person in possession of any Unit pursuant to any such lease to take any action inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this Indenture or any of the other Operative Agreements. All reasonable costs and expenses of the Indenture Trustee (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses of special counsel) incurred in connection with any lease pursuant to this Section 4.04(c) shall be paid by the Owner.
(d) Replacement for Valid Business Reasons. The Owner shall be entitled at any time (but not more than twice in any calendar year), provided no Material Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without the prior approval of the Indenture Trustee, when for valid business reasons arising in the ordinary course of business (including without limitation responding to customer requests, meeting subordination or assignment requirements, controlling foreign use and avoiding defaults), to replace any Unit or Units with another unit or units of either (x) the same car type or (y) other car types as may be approved by the Indenture Trustee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), in accordance with the provisions hereof and of Section 4.06(b)(i) and 4.06(c) by delivering to the Indenture Trustee, not less than 15 days prior to such replacement, a written notice stating that the Owner has exercised its option hereunder and advising the Indenture Trustee of the date on which the Unit to be replaced will be so replaced and appropriately identifying the Unit to be replaced and the Replacement Unit or Replacement Units. Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers Certificate stating that such replacement is required for valid business reasons arising in the ordinary course of the Owners business and briefly setting forth the reasons therefor. On the date specified for replacement in the notice delivered by the Owner in connection therewith, the Owner shall make each Replacement Unit subject to the Lien of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall release the replaced Unit from the Lien of this Indenture and the Indenture Trustee and the Owner shall deliver to each other such documents and other instruments as are required by Section 4.06(c).
4.05. Modifications.
(a) Required Modifications. In the event the AAR, the United States Department of Transportation, or any other United States or state governmental agency or any other applicable law requires that any Unit be altered, replaced or modified whether such requirement is imposed on the owner or for use in the ordinary course by an operator in accordance with the terms hereof (a Required Modification), the Owner agrees to make such Required Modification at its own expense; provided, however, that the Owner may, in good faith
19
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
and by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted, contest the validity or application of any such law, regulation, requirement or rule in any reasonable manner which does not materially interfere with the use, possession, operation or return of any Unit or materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Equipment or hereunder or otherwise expose the Indenture Trustee or the Loan Participant to criminal sanctions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Owner determines in good faith that any Required Modification to a Unit would be economically impractical, in lieu of making the Required Modification as provided above, the Owner may provide written notice of such determination to the Indenture Trustee and treat such Unit as if an Event of Loss had occurred as of the date of such written notice with respect to such Unit and in such event the provisions of Sections 4.06(b) and 4.06(c) shall apply with respect to such Unit; provided that the Owner shall not discriminate against such Unit in making such determination of economic impracticality as compared with other equipment of the same type as such Unit which is owned or leased by the Owner.
(b) Optional Modifications. The Owner at any time may in its discretion and at its own cost and expense modify, alter or improve any Unit in a manner which is not required by Section 4.05(a) (a Modification); provided that no Modification shall diminish the fair market value, utility or remaining economic useful life of such Unit below the fair market value, utility, or remaining economic useful life thereof immediately prior to such Modification, in any non de minimis respect, assuming such Unit was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture, provided that the Owner shall not discriminate against such Unit in making such modification, alteration or improvement as compared with other equipment of the same type as the Unit and which are owned or leased by the Owner. If the Owner shall at its cost cause any Severable Modifications to be made to any Unit, the Owner may, at any time, remove such Severable Modifications at its cost and expense and the Owner shall, at its expense, repair any damage resulting from the removal of any such Severable Modifications in a manner consistent with Section 4.04(a).
(c) Additions Subject to Indenture. All parts incorporated or installed in or attached or added to the Equipment pursuant to Section 4.05(a) and all Non-Severable Modifications made pursuant to Section 4.05(b) shall, without further act, become subject to the Lien of this Indenture.
(d) Removal of Property; Replacements. The Owner may, in the ordinary course of maintenance or repair of any Unit, remove any item of property constituting a part of such Unit, and unless the removal of such item is required by Section 4.05(a) hereof, the Owner shall replace such item as promptly as practicable by an item of property that is free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and in as good operating condition as, and with a fair market value, utility and remaining economic useful life at least equal to, the item of property being replaced, assuming that such replaced item was in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture. All items at any time removed from such Unit in the ordinary course of maintenance and repair as provided in the preceding sentence shall remain subject to the Lien of this Indenture, no matter where located, until such time as such items shall be replaced in accordance with the terms specified above. Upon any replacement item of property becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to any Unit, without further act, (i) such replacement part shall become subject to the Lien of this Indenture and (ii) the replaced item of property shall no longer be subject to the Lien of this Indenture. Upon request of the Owner, the
20
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
Indenture Trustee shall, at the Owners expense, execute and deliver to the Owner such documents as may be reasonably required to evidence the release of any replaced item of property from the Lien of this Indenture.
4.06. Loss, Destruction, Requisition, Etc.
(a) Event of Loss. In the event that (a) any Unit (i) shall suffer damage or contamination which, in the Owners reasonable judgment (as evidenced by an Officers Certificate to such effect), makes repair uneconomic or renders such Unit unfit for commercial use, (ii) shall suffer destruction, or shall suffer theft or disappearance (after reasonable efforts by the Owner to locate the same) for a period exceeding 12 months, (iii) shall be permanently returned to the manufacturer pursuant to any patent indemnity provisions, (iv) shall have title thereto taken or appropriated by any governmental authority, agency or instrumentality under the power of eminent domain or otherwise, or (v) shall be taken or requisitioned for use by any governmental authority or any agency or instrumentality thereof other than of the United States or Canada under the power of eminent domain or otherwise for a period in excess of 365 days or (b) the Owner makes the determination set forth in Section 4.05(a) (any such occurrence being hereinafter called an Event of Loss), the Owner, in accordance with the terms of Section 4.06(b), shall promptly and fully inform the Indenture Trustee of such Event of Loss.
(b) Replacement or Payment upon Event of Loss. Upon the occurrence of (x) an Event of Loss or the deemed occurrence of an Event of Loss pursuant to Section 4.06(a) or (y) an election to replace pursuant to Section 4.04(c) or 4.04(d), with respect to any Unit, the Owner shall as soon as reasonably practical and in any event within 60 days after a Responsible Officer of the Owner shall have actual knowledge of such occurrence or election give the Indenture Trustee notice of such occurrence of such Event of Loss or election to replace (which notice shall identify the Unit involved) and then within the 60-day period following such notice give the Indenture Trustee notice as to which of the following options the Owner shall elect to perform (it being agreed that if the Owner shall fail to give notice of such election, the Owner shall be deemed to have elected to perform the option set forth in Section 4.06(b)(ii)):
(i) Upon the Owners election to perform under this clause (i), as promptly as practicable following such election, and in any event on or before the 90th day following the date of notice of such Event of Loss or deemed Event of Loss pursuant to Section 4.06(a), or the date the Owner exercises an option to replace pursuant to Section 4.04(c) or 4.04(d), as the case may be, the Owner shall comply with Section 4.06(c) and shall replace such Unit with a Replacement Unit of the same car type of the same or newer model year (or otherwise approved by Indenture Trustee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and to have a fair market value, utility, remaining economic useful life and condition at least equal to the Unit so replaced (assuming such Unit was in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Indenture); provided that, if, at the time of such replacement, only railcars (x) of a newer model year or (y) with a greater fair market value than the replaced Units are available as Replacement Units, the Owner shall make such Replacement Unit subject to the Lien of this Indenture but the Owner may, at a later date, replace such Replacement Units with other Units that are closer in fair market value to the original replaced Units; provided further that, if the Owner shall
21
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
elect the option under this clause (i) within such period but shall fail to perform its obligation to effect such replacement under this paragraph (i) within the 90-day period hereinabove provided for, then at the end of such 90-day period the Owner shall immediately give the Indenture Trustee notice of such failure and specify that the Owner shall pay to Indenture Trustee on the next succeeding Payment Date that is at least 30 days after the end of such 90-day period the amounts specified in paragraph (ii) below as of such next succeeding Payment Date, and the Owner shall pay such amounts on such Payment Date provided further that the Owner shall have no right to elect replacement under this clause (i) if at the time of the notice of the Owners election to replace under Section 4.06(b) above a Material Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or
(ii) on the Payment Date which is not less than 30 days following the date of notice of the Owners election to perform under this clause (ii), the Owner shall prepay the related Equipment Notes in accordance with Section 2.09(a);
provided, that if the Owner elects to replace any Unit pursuant to clause (i) above, the Owner shall not be required to replace Equipment pursuant to clause (i) above in respect of any Event of Loss more than two (2) times in any calendar year; provided that any replacement shall be made no later than the next Payment Date that is not less than 60 days from the end of the 90 day period provided for in clause (i) above, other than in respect of an Event of Loss that has occurred in such calendar year with respect to more than 5% of the Units in the aggregate (which shall be made as set forth in clause (i)).
(c) Disposition of Equipment; Replacement of Unit. In connection with the replacement of any Unit or Units under this Section 4.06(c), the Owner will make such Unit subject to the Lien of this Indenture and (A) cause an Indenture Supplement for such Replacement Unit, to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee for execution and, upon such execution, to be filed for recordation in the same manner and within the same time periods as provided for the original Indenture Supplement, (B) furnish the Indenture Trustee with an opinion of the Owners counsel (which may be the Owners General Counsel or Assistant General Counsel) describing all filings and recordings and other actions necessary or appropriate to protect the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Replacement Units and confirming that there are no Liens of record with the STB under the name of the Owner with respect to the Replacement Units (other than Permitted Liens), (C) furnish the Indenture Trustee with an engineers certificate (which may be from an employee of the Owner) certifying as to the utility, condition, model year and remaining useful life required under clause (i) of Section 4.06(b), (D) furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officers Certificate certifying that the Replacement Unit has a fair market value, utility, model year and remaining economic useful life and condition at least equal to the Unit being replaced and is free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), and (E) furnish such other documents and evidence as the Indenture Trustee, or its counsel, may reasonably request in order to establish the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 4.06(c). For all purposes hereof, (i) the Owner shall be deemed to have complied with the requirements of this Section 4.06(c) as of the date of its delivery to the Indenture Trustee of the documents and instruments referred to in the foregoing clauses (A) through (E), signed by the Owner or its counsel, as applicable, in due form for any required filing or recording, and such filing or recording shall have been made if such documents and
22
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
instruments have been executed and delivered by the Owner or Indenture Trustee or both of them in a timely manner, and (ii) following the transactions described in this Section 4.06(c), the Replacement Unit shall be deemed part of the Indenture Estate and the Replacement Unit shall be deemed a Unit of Equipment as defined herein. Upon consummation of a replacement, the Indenture Trustee shall at the Owners written request execute and deliver to the Owner an appropriate instrument prepared by the Owner releasing such replaced Unit from the lien of this Indenture. The Owner shall pay all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with any replacement pursuant to this Section 4.06(c).
(d) Eminent Domain. In the event that the use of any Unit is requisitioned or taken by any governmental authority under the power of eminent domain or otherwise for a period which does not constitute an Event of Loss, all of the Owners obligations under the Operative Agreements shall continue for the duration of such requisitioning or taking. The Owner shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account all sums payable for any such period by such governmental authority as compensation for requisition or taking of possession. Any amount referred to in this Section 4.06(d) or in Section 4.07 which is payable to the Owner shall not be paid to the Owner, or if it has been previously paid directly to the Owner, shall not be retained by the Owner, if at the time of such payment a Material Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, but shall be paid to and held by the Indenture Trustee, as security for the obligations of the Owner under this Indenture, and at such time as there shall not be continuing any such Material Default or Event of Default, such amount shall be paid to the Owner.
4.07. Insurance. The Owner will, subject to the right to self-insure as set forth below, so long as the Lien of the Indenture is in effect, at its own expense, keep or cause to be kept each Unit insured by a reputable insurance company or companies in amounts and against risks and with deductibles and terms and conditions not less than the insurance, if any, maintained by the Owner with respect to similar equipment which it owns or leases, but in no event shall such coverage be for amounts or against risks less than the prudent industry standard for companies engaged in full service leasing of railcars. Without limiting the foregoing, the Owner will in any event:
(a) keep each Unit of the Equipment insured against physical damage in an amount not less than 105% of the product obtained by multiplying the then aggregate unpaid principal amount of the related Equipment Note by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Equipment Cost for such Unit and the denominator of which is the aggregate Equipment Cost of all Units of the same Basic Group then included in the Indenture Estate (the Agreed Value); and
(b) maintain public liability insurance naming the Indenture Trustee as an additional insured (but only with respect to liability arising out of or related to the Operative Agreements and the Equipment) against bodily injury, death or property damage arising out of the use or operation of the Equipment with general and excess liability limits of not less than $50,000,000 per occurrence or in the aggregate.
23
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
It is understood and agreed that the insurance required hereunder may be part of a company-wide insurance program, including risk-retention and self-insurance. Any policy of insurance maintained in accordance with this Section 4.07 and any policy purchased in substitution or replacement for any of such policies shall provide that if any such insurance is cancelled or terminated for any reason whatever (other than upon normal policy expiration), the Indenture Trustee shall receive 30 days prior written notice of such cancellation or termination.
4.08. Physical Damage Insurance.
(a) The insurance maintained pursuant to Section 4.07(a) shall provide that (i) the proceeds up to the Agreed Value, for any loss or damage to any Unit shall be made to the Indenture Trustee under a standard loss payable clause, and thereafter to the Owner and (ii) the Owner will be entitled, at its own expense, to make all proofs of loss and take all other steps necessary to collect the proceeds of such insurance.
(b) In lieu of maintaining the physical damage insurance required by 4.07(a), the Owner may self-insure with respect to any or all of the insurance under the Owners risk management programs and in keeping with the risk management programs assumed by corporations of established reputations engaged in the same business, and provided that any such self-insurance will be comparable in all material respects to self-insurance provisions generally applicable to other comparable equipment owned by or leased to the Owner.
(c) Any proceeds of any property insurance or third party payments for damages to any Unit received by the Owner or the Indenture Trustee (x) that are equal or less than the Threshold Amount, shall be paid over to, or retained by, the Owner and (y) that are greater than the Threshold Amount, shall be paid over to, or retained by the Indenture Trustee until the repairs referred to in clause (i) below are made as specified therein or payment of the amount required to be paid under Section 2.09(a) is made, and such entire proceeds will be paid either:
(i) to the Owner promptly following receipt by the Indenture Trustee of a written application signed by the Owner for payment to the Owner for repairing or restoring the Units which have been damaged so long as (1) the Owner shall have complied with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, and (2) the Owner shall have certified that any damage to such Units shall have been fully repaired or restored; or
(ii) if the Lien of this Indenture is released with respect to such Unit because of an Event of Loss and the Owner has paid the amount required to be paid under Section 2.09(a) as a result thereof, such proceeds shall be promptly paid over to, or retained by, the Owner.
4.09. Public Liability Insurance.
(a) The public liability insurance referred to in Section 4.07(b) shall (i) provide that in as much as such policies cover more than one insured, all terms, conditions, insuring agreements and endorsements, with the exception of limits of liability and liability for premiums, commissions, assessments or calls (which shall be solely a liability of the Owner), shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy or policies covering each
24
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
insured, (ii) waive any rights of subrogation of the insurers against the Indenture Trustee, (iii) provide that the Indenture Trustee shall not have any responsibility for any insurance premiums, whether for coverage before or after cancellation or termination of any such policies as to the Owner and (iv) be primary without contribution from any similar insurance maintained by the Indenture Trustee.
(b) The Owner shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain public liability insurance policies stipulating that coverage thereunder will not be invalidated (as to the Indenture Trustee) due to any action or inaction of the Owner or any other Person (other than the Indenture Trustee), but shall be under no obligation to obtain such policies containing such stipulations if they are not available to the Owner at commercially reasonable rates in the markets in which the Owner has then placed its insurance program.
(c) In the event any public liability insurance policy or coverage thereunder which is required to be maintained under Section 4.07(b) shall not be available to the Owner in the commercial insurance market on commercially reasonable terms, the Indenture Trustee shall not unreasonably withhold its agreement to waive such requirement. The Owner shall make written request for any such waiver in writing, accompanied by written reports prepared, at the Owners option, either by (i) one independent insurance advisor chosen by the Owner and the Indenture Trustee or (ii) three independent insurance advisors, one chosen by the Indenture Trustee, one chosen by Owner and one chosen by the other two advisors (one of which may be the regular insurance broker of the Owner), in either case, such independent insurance advisors being of recognized national standing. The fees and expenses of all such advisors shall be paid by the Owner. The written reports required hereunder shall (x) state that such insurance (or the required coverage thereunder) is not reasonably available to the Owner at commercially reasonable premiums in the commercial insurance markets within which the Owner normally purchases its insurance from insurers, acceptable to the Owner, with a Bests rating of A- or better for railcars of similar type and capacity and (y) explain in detail the basis for such conclusions. Upon the granting of any such waiver, the Owner shall within 15 days thereafter certify to the Indenture Trustee in writing the cost (on a fleet-wide basis) of liability insurance premiums for the coverage required by Section 4.07(b) for the immediately preceding fiscal year; and in the event that any such certificate is not received by the Indenture Trustee within such 15 day period, any such waiver shall be deemed revoked. At any time after the granting of such waiver, but not more often than once a year, the Indenture Trustee may make a written request for a supplemental report (in form reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) from such insurance advisor(s) updating the prior report and reaffirming the conclusions set forth therein. The Owner shall provide any such required supplemental report within 60 days after receipt of the written request therefor. Any such waiver shall be effective for only as long as such insurance is not reasonably available to the Owner in the commercial markets in which the Owner normally purchases its insurance at commercially reasonable rates, it being understood that the failure of the Owner to furnish timely any such supplemental report shall be conclusive evidence that such condition no longer exists. If such supplemental report shows that such coverage is available, the Owner shall within 90 days of such report obtain such insurance coverage. During any period with respect to which such waiver has been granted and remains in effect under this Section 4.09, the Owner shall obtain public liability insurance as set forth in Section 4.07(b) from such carriers, in such amounts and with coverage limits and deductibles as is prudent under the circumstances, but in any event in an amount that may be purchased for a
25
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
premium equal to 110% of the Owners cost (on a fleet-wide basis) of public liability insurance premiums for the coverage required by Section 4.07(b) for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which such waiver first was granted.
4.10. Certificate of Insurance. The Owner shall, prior to the Closing Date and when the renewal certificate referred to below is sent (but in any event not less than annually), furnish the Indenture Trustee with a certificate signed by the insurer or an independent insurance broker describing the insurance then maintained by the Owner or any Permitted Lessee under a Permitted Lease pursuant to this Section. With respect to any renewal policy or policies, certificates or binders evidencing such renewal shall be furnished as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after the earlier of the date such renewal is effected or the expiration date of the original policy or policies. Simultaneously, with the furnishing of such certificate, the Owner will provide appropriate evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, that all premiums due on such insurance have been paid.
4.11. Additional Insurance. In the event that the Owner shall fail to maintain insurance as herein provided, in Section 4.07 or, if applicable, Section 4.09, the Indenture Trustee may at its option, upon prior written notice to the Owner (provided Owner has not procured the necessary insurance in the interim and notified the Indenture Trustee in reasonable detail of the procurement, coverage and term thereof), provide such insurance and, in such event, the Owner shall, upon demand from time to time, reimburse the Indenture Trustee for the cost thereof together with interest from the date of payment thereof at the Late Rate, on the amount of the cost to the Indenture Trustee of such insurance which the Owner shall have failed to maintain. If after the Indenture Trustee has provided such insurance, the Owner then obtains the coverage provided for in Section 4.07 which was replaced by the insurance provided by the Indenture Trustee, and the Owner provides the Indenture Trustee with evidence of such coverage reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall cancel the insurance it has provided pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph. In such event, the Owner shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all costs to the Indenture Trustee of cancellation, including without limitation any short rate penalty, together with interest from the date of the Indenture Trustees payment thereof at the Late Rate. In addition, at any time the Indenture Trustee (either directly or in the name of Loan Participant) or the Loan Participant may at its own expense carry insurance with respect to its interest in the Units, provided that such insurance does not interfere with the Owners ability to insure the Equipment as required by Article IV or adversely affect the Owners insurance or the cost thereof, it being understood that all salvage rights to each Unit shall remain with the Owners insurers at all times. Any insurance payments received from policies maintained by the Indenture Trustee or the Loan Participant pursuant to the previous sentence shall be retained by the Indenture Trustee or the Loan Participant, as the case may be, without reducing or otherwise affecting the Owners obligations hereunder.
4.12. Duty of Owner to Furnish. On or before April 30, 2009, and on or before each April 30 thereafter, the Owner will furnish to the Indenture Trustee an accurate statement, as of the preceding December 31, (a) showing the amount, description and reporting marks of the Units then subject to the Lien of this Indenture, the amount, description and reporting marks of all Units that may have suffered an Event of Loss during the 12 months ending on such December 31 (or since the Closing Date, in the case of the first such statement), and such other information regarding the condition or repair of the Equipment as the Indenture Trustee may
26
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
reasonably request and (b) stating that the Owner is not aware of any condition of any Unit which would cause such Unit not to comply in any material respect with the rules and regulations of the FRA and the interchange rules of the Field Manual of the AAR as they apply to the maintenance and operation of the Equipment in interchange, except as specified therein.
4.13. Inspection Rights. The Indenture Trustee shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole cost, expense (unless an Event of Default exists, in which event any such inspection shall be at the Owners expense) and risk (including, without limitation, the risk of bodily injury or death), by its authorized representatives, to inspect (a) the Equipment and the Owners records with respect thereto, and (b) following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, any Permitted Lease (provided, that if such Permitted Lease is subject and subordinate to this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall only have the right to review the subject and subordinate provision of such Permitted Lease and not any other terms or provisions thereof) and the Owners records with respect thereto (for the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no limitation on the right to inspect any Permitted Lease that is not subject and subordinate to this Indenture); provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall not have the right to inspect any records of the Owner with respect to any Permitted Lease or the Equipment that contain competitive or confidential information as determined by the Owner in its reasonable discretion. All inspections shall be conducted during the Owners normal business hours, on the Owners premises or in areas that are the premises of a lessee to which the Owner has reasonable access or pursuant to the Owners inspection rights under any Permitted Lease (provided all requests with respect to a Permitted Lease shall be made through the Owner and exercise of such inspection rights shall be made during the normal business hours of the Permitted Lessee and may not disturb any of the Permitted Lessees rights under the Permitted Lease), and upon reasonable prior notice to the Owner. The Owner shall not be liable for any injury to, or the death of, any Person exercising, either on behalf of the Indenture Trustee or any prospective user, the rights of inspection granted under this Section 4.13 unless caused by the Owners gross negligence or willful misconduct. No inspection pursuant to this Section 4.13 shall interfere with the use, operation or maintenance of the Equipment or the ordinary course of the Owners or any lessees business. The Owner shall not be required to undertake or incur any additional liabilities in connection therewith except as is reasonably required to facilitate the normal exercise of inspection rights in accordance with the terms hereof.
ARTICLE V
REMEDIES OF THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE
UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT
5.01. Events of Default. The following events shall constitute Events of Default and each such Event of Default shall be deemed to exist and continue so long as, but only so long as, it shall not have been remedied:
(a) default by the Owner in making any payment when due (i) of principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest on, any Equipment Note or Equipment Notes, and the continuance of such default unremedied for 10 Business Days after the same shall have become due and payable or (ii) any other amount payable by it to the Note Holders under this Indenture or the Participation Agreement when due, and such failure shall continue for a period in excess
27
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
of 30 days after the Owner has received written notice from the Indenture Trustee of the failure to make such payment when due; or
(b) The Owner shall fail to maintain in effect the insurance required by Article IV and such failure shall not have been waived as provided for therein; or
(c) The Owner shall make or permit any lease, assignment or transfer of the Equipment or any portion thereof not permitted by this Indenture, provided that such unauthorized lease, assignment or transfer shall not constitute an Event of Default for a period of 45 days after the occurrence thereof so long as (i) such unauthorized possession is not the result of any willful action of the Owner and (ii) such unauthorized possession is capable of being cured and the Owner diligently pursues such cure throughout such 45-day period; or
(d) The Owner shall fail to observe or perform any of the covenants or agreements to be observed or performed by the Owner in Section 5.4(d) of the Participation Agreement, and such failure shall continue unremedied for 30 days during which period the Owner diligently pursues the cure of such failure; or
(e) any representation or warranty made by the Owner in any the Owner Agreement is untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date of making thereof and such untruth or incorrectness shall continue to be material and unremedied for a period of 30 days after receipt by the Owner of written notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee; provided that, if such untruth or incorrectness is capable of being remedied, no such untruth or incorrectness shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder for a period of 90 days after receipt of such notice so long as the Owner is diligently proceeding to remedy such untruth or incorrectness and shall in fact remedy such untruth or incorrectness within such period; provided that such untrue or incorrect representation or warranty shall be deemed to be remedied only after all adverse consequences thereof, if any, have been remedied; or
(f) The Owner shall (i) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, or (ii) consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in any voluntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or (iii) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they come due, or (iv) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (v) take any corporate action to authorize any of the foregoing; or
(g) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Owner seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 90 days; or
28
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
(h) The Owner shall fail to observe or perform any other of the covenants or agreements to be observed or performed by the Owner under any Owner Agreement or any certificate and such failure shall continue unremedied for 30 days after notice from the Indenture Trustee to the Owner, specifying the failure and demanding the same to be remedied; provided that, if such failure is capable of being remedied, and the remedy requires an action other than, or in addition to, the payment of money, no such failure (other than one relating to the payment of such money) shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder for a period of 180 days after receipt of such notice so long as the Owner is diligently proceeding to remedy such failure and shall in fact remedy such failure within such period;
provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, (i) any failure of the Owner to perform or observe any covenant or agreement herein (for the avoidance of doubt other than related to the payment of money) shall not constitute an Event of Default if such failure is caused solely by reason of an event referred to in the definition of Event of Loss so long as the Owner is continuing to comply with the applicable terms of Section 4.06 and (ii) with regard to any event or condition that results from an act or omission of any lessee and that would, but for this proviso, constitute an Event of Default hereunder that cannot be cured by the Owner without repossession of the applicable Units (such event or condition, a Lessee Default), the occurrence or existence of such Lessee Default shall not constitute an Event of Default until the earlier of (A) 180 days after the occurrence of such Lessee Default or (B) 30 days after the Owner repossesses the applicable Units, or for such longer period (but in no event to exceed 150 days) after the Owner repossesses the applicable Units as may be necessary for the Owner to remedy such Lessee Default (such additional period being the Additional Lease Cure Period), so long as the Owner is proceeding diligently to effect such repossession and upon such repossession, the Owner is proceeding diligently to remedy such Lessee Default; provided, that the Additional Lease Cure Period for any Unit shall not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date.
5.02. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and upon the directions of a Majority in Interest shall, subject to Section 4.04, declare the unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes then outstanding and accrued interest thereon to be due and payable, it being agreed that no Make-Whole Amount or other premium should be payable in such event; provided that if an Event of Default referred to in clause (f) and (g) of Section 5.01 hereof shall have occurred, then and in every such case the unpaid principal amount of such Equipment Notes then outstanding, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon (but without Make-Whole Amount) and all other amounts due hereunder and on or in respect of the Equipment Notes shall immediately and without further act become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice, all of which are hereby waived. At any time after the Indenture Trustee has declared the unpaid principal amount of all Equipment Notes then outstanding to be due and payable and prior to the sale of any of the Indenture Estate pursuant to this Article V, a Majority in Interest, by written notice to the Owner and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and thereby annul its consequences if: (i) there has been paid to or deposited with the Indenture Trustee an amount sufficient to pay all overdue installments of interest on the Equipment Notes, and the principal on any Equipment Notes that has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, (ii) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, and (iii) all other Defaults and Events of Default, other than nonpayment of principal or interest
29
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
on the Equipment Notes that have become due solely because of such acceleration, have been cured or waived.
5.03. Remedies with Respect to Indenture Estate. (a) After an Event of Default shall have occurred and so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture Trustee, as mortgagee hereunder of the Equipment or otherwise, may, and when required pursuant to the provisions of Article VI hereof shall, exercise any or all of the rights and powers and pursue any and all of the remedies pursuant to this Article V and may recover judgment in its own name as Indenture Trustee against the Indenture Estate and may take possession of all or any part of the Indenture Estate, and may exclude the Owner and all persons claiming under any of them wholly or partly therefrom and, without limiting the foregoing, shall have all of the rights and remedies granted to a secured creditor under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code; provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall give the Owner twenty days prior written notice of its intention to sell any Unit (which shall be deemed commercially reasonable); provided that the requirement to provide such notice will be satisfied upon the giving of the notice required under clause (b) below.
(b) The Indenture Trustee may, if at the time such action may be lawful and always subject to compliance with any mandatory legal requirements, either with or without taking possession, and either before or after taking possession, and without instituting any legal proceedings whatsoever, and having first given notice of such sale by registered mail to the Owner once at least 20 days prior to the date of such sale or the date on which the Indenture Trustee enters into a binding contract for a private sale, and any other notice which may be required by law, sell and dispose of the Indenture Estate, or any part thereof, or interest therein, at public auction to the highest bidder or at private sale in one lot as an entirety or in separate lots, and either for cash or on credit and on such terms as the Indenture Trustee may determine, and at any place (whether or not it be the location of the Indenture Estate or any part thereof) and time designated in the notice above referred to; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall not sell any of the Indenture Estate or exercise any other remedies which would result in the exclusion of the Owner from the Indenture Estate or any part thereof unless a declaration of acceleration has been made pursuant to Section 5.02 or the Equipment Notes shall have otherwise been accelerated as provided therein. Any such public sale or sales may be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or sales, or for any such adjourned sale or sales, without further notice, and the Indenture Trustee or the holder or holders of any Equipment Notes, or any interest therein, may bid and become the purchaser at any such public sale and may bid-in the Equipment Notes in whole or in part in payment of the purchase price at any such sale. The Indenture Trustee may exercise such right without possession or production of the Equipment Notes or proof of ownership thereof, and as representative of the holders may exercise such right without including the holders as parties to any suit or proceeding relating to foreclosure of any property in the Indenture Estate. The Owner hereby irrevocably constitutes the Indenture Trustee the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Owner (in the name of the Owner or otherwise) for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment, transfer or delivery for enforcement of the Lien of this Indenture, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of sale or otherwise, to execute and deliver all such bills of sale, assignments and other instruments as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the Owner hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any substitute shall lawfully do
30
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Indenture Trustee or any purchaser, the Owner shall ratify and confirm any such sale, assignment, transfer or delivery, by executing and delivering to the Indenture Trustee or such purchaser all bills of sale, assignments, releases and other proper instruments to effect such ratification and confirmation as may be designated in any such request.
(c) The Owner agrees, to the fullest extent that it lawfully may, that, in case one or more of the Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, in every such case, the Indenture Trustee may take possession of all or any part of the Indenture Estate and may exclude the Owner and all persons claiming under any of them wholly or partly therefrom. At the request of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee such instruments of title and other documents as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or advisable to enable the Indenture Trustee or an agent or representative designated by the Indenture Trustee, at such time or times and place or places as the Indenture Trustee may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Indenture Estate. If the Owner shall fail for any reason to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may pursue all or part of the Indenture Estate wherever it may be found and may enter any of the premises of the Owner wherever the Indenture Estate may be or be supposed to be and search for the Indenture Estate and take possession of and remove the Indenture Estate. Upon every such taking of possession, the Indenture Trustee may, from time to time, at the expense of the Indenture Estate, make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to any of the Indenture Estate, as it may deem proper. In each such case, the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to use, operate, store, control or manage the Indenture Estate, and to carry on the business and to exercise all rights and powers of the Owner relating to the Indenture Estate, as the Indenture Trustee shall deem best, including the right to enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the maintenance, operation, leasing or storage of the Indenture Estate or any part thereof as the Indenture Trustee may determine; and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to collect and receive all tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits of the Indenture Estate and every part thereof, without prejudice, however, to the right of the Indenture Trustee under any provision of this Indenture to collect and receive all cash held by, or required to be deposited with, the Indenture Trustee hereunder. Such tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits shall be applied to pay the expenses of holding and operating the Indenture Estate and of conducting the business thereof, and of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to make all payments which the Indenture Trustee may be required or may elect to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance or other proper charges upon the Indenture Estate or any part thereof (including the employment of engineers and accountants to examine, inspect and make reports upon the properties and books and records of the Indenture Estate), and all other payments which the Indenture Trustee may be required or authorized to make under any provision of this Indenture, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of the Indenture Trustee, and of all persons properly engaged and employed by the Indenture Trustee, including the reasonable expenses of the Indenture Trustee.
(d) If an Indenture Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Indenture Trustee shall have obtained possession of a Unit, the Indenture Trustee shall not be obligated to use or operate such Unit or cause such Unit to be used or operated directly or indirectly by itself or through agents or other representatives or to lease, license or otherwise
31
[Trust Indenture and Security Agreement (GATX Trust No. 2008-2)]
permit or provide for the use or operation of such Unit or Equipment by any other Person unless (i) the Indenture Trustee shall have been able to obtain insurance in kinds, at rates and in amounts satisfactory to it in its discretion to protect the Indenture Estate and the Indenture Trustee, as trustee and individually, against any and all liability for loss or damage to such Unit and for public liability and property damage resulting from use or operation of such Unit and (ii) funds are available in the Indenture Estate to pay for all such insurance or, in lieu of such insurance, the Indenture Trustee is furnished with indemnification from the holders of the Equipment Notes or any other Person upon terms and in amounts satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee in its discretion to protect the Indenture Estate and the Indenture Trustee, as trustee and individually, against any and all such liabilities.
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, so long as the Pass Through Trustee under the Pass Through Trust Agreement is the registered holder of any Equipment Note issued hereunder, the Indenture Trustee is not authorized or empowered to acquire title to any Indenture Estate or take any action with respect to any Indenture Estate so acquired by it if such acquisition or action would cause the trust created by the Pass Through Trust Agreement to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes.
5.04. Rights of the Owner. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 5.03, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall not take any action contrary to, or disturb, the Owners rights to possession and use of, and of quiet enjoyment of, the Equipment.
5.05. Waiver of Existing Defaults. A Majority in Interest by notice to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of all holders of the Equipment Notes may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default: (i) in the payment of the principal of, Make-Whole Amount, if any, or interest on any Equipment Note, or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article X hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each Equipment Note affected. Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Indenture Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take any action under Section 6.01 or 6.02 or Article V, nor shall any other provision of this Indenture be deemed to impose a duty on the Indenture Trustee to take any action, if the Indenture Trustee shall have been advised in writing by independent counsel that such action is contrary to the terms hereof or of the Participation Agreement, or is otherwise contrary to law.
(b) Each Loan Participant may, but shall not be required to, participate in any indemnification of the Indenture Trustee given pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 6.03. Each Loan Participant so participating shall be entitled to reimbursement for such participation in accordance with Article III.
