Section 4.03    Amendment of Sections 3.04 and 3.05 of the Basic Agreement. Sections 4.04, 4.05 and 4.06 of this Trust Supplement supersede and replace Sections 3.04 and 3.05 of the Basic Agreement, with respect to the Class B(R) Trust.
Section 4.04    Transfer and Exchange. The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the office or agency to be maintained by it in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.12 of the Basic Agreement, a register (the “Register”) of the Class B(R) Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of such
    16    


Class B(R) Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of such Class B(R) Certificates as herein provided, and shall maintain up-to-date contact information as to the registered owner and, if applicable, beneficial owner of each Certificate provided, however, that under no circumstances shall the Registrar have any liability whatsoever in connection with the failure of any Certificateholder or any other applicable party to notify the Registrar of any transfers, assignments, pledges or exchanges of any Class B(R) Certificates or to provide current, accurate contact information. The Trustee shall initially be the registrar (the “Registrar”) for the purpose of registering such Class B(R) Certificates and transfers and exchanges of such Class B(R) Certificates as herein provided. Promptly upon the Trustee’s request therefor, (a) the Registrar shall provide to the Trustee a true and complete copy of the Register and (b) the Registrar shall provide to the Trustee such information regarding the Class B(R) Certificates and the Class B(R) Certificateholders as is reasonably available to the Registrar.
All Class B(R) Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Class B(R) Certificates shall be valid obligations of the Class B(R) Trust, evidencing the same interest therein, and entitled to the same benefits under the Agreement, as the Class B(R) Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Subject to compliance with Section 4.01, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Class B(R) Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or such other office or agency designated by the Registrar with the form of transfer notice thereon duly completed and executed, and otherwise complying with the terms of the Agreement, including providing evidence of compliance with any restrictions on transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Class B(R) Certificates of like series, in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest. No such transfer shall be effected until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of a Class B(R) Certificateholder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the Register. Prior to the registration of any transfer by a Class B(R) Certificateholder as provided herein, the Trustee shall treat the person in whose name the Class B(R) Certificate is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, and the Trustee shall not be affected by notice to the contrary. Whenever any Class B(R) Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver the Class B(R) Certificates that the Class B(R) Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Class B(R) Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar duly executed by the Class B(R) Certificateholder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The Registrar and/or the Trustee may request and shall be entitled to receive as a prerequisite to the registration of transfers of any Class B(R) Certificate in connection with any transfer signature guarantees satisfactory to it in its reasonable discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, signatures to the form of transfer notice need not be guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” which has membership or participation in the Security Transfer Agent Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee program” in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP.
The Registrar shall not register the transfer or exchange of any Class B(R) Certificate in the name of any Person unless and until evidence satisfactory to the Company and
    17    


the Trustee that the conditions to any such transfer or exchange set forth in Sections 4.02 through 4.06 shall have been satisfied is submitted to them and the Company has so notified the Trustee and the Registrar in writing of such satisfaction. The Registrar and the Trustee shall not be liable to any Person for registering any transfer or exchange, or for executing, authenticating or delivering any Class B(R) Certificate based on such certification. The Registrar and the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Class B(R) Certificate is registered as the sole owner of the beneficial interest in the Class B(R) Trust evidenced by such Class B(R) Certificate.
To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges in accordance with the terms, conditions and restrictions hereof, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate Class B(R) Certificates at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made to a Class B(R) Certificateholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Class B(R) Certificates, but the Trustee and the Registrar shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Class B(R) Certificates. All Class B(R) Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or elsewhere to the contrary, neither the Registrar nor the Trustee shall have any duty or obligation with respect to any transfer, exchange or other disposition of an economic interest in a Class B(R) Certificate (other than a transfer of a Class B(R) Certificate itself) or any personal liability to any Person in connection with the same.
The Trustee shall not exchange or transfer any Certificate initially issued as a Definitive Certificate for an interest in the Global Certificate. Subject to Section 4.05 below, the Trustee may exchange or transfer an interest in the Global Certificate for a Definitive Certificate.
Section 4.05    Book-Entry Provisions for Global Certificates. (a) DTC Participants shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global Certificate held on their behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, and DTC may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Certificate for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or shall impair, as between DTC and its DTC Participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Class B(R) Certificate. Upon the issuance of any Global Certificate, the Registrar or its duly appointed agent shall record Cede & Co. or another nominee of DTC as the registered holder of such Global Certificate.
(b)    Transfers of any Global Certificate shall be limited to transfers of such Global Certificate in whole, but not in part, to nominees of DTC, DTC’s successor or such successor’s nominees. Beneficial interests in a Global Certificate may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 4.06 of this Trust Supplement. Beneficial interests in a Global Certificate shall be delivered to all beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Certificates if (i) DTC notifies the Trustee in writing that it is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depositary for such Global Certificates, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Trustee within 90 days of
    18    


such notice, (ii) the Company, at its option, advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through DTC, or (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, owners of beneficial interests in a Global Certificate with Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Class B(R) Trust advise the Trustee, the Company and DTC through DTC Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a successor thereto) is no longer in their best interests. Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be liable if the Company or the Trustee is unable to locate a qualified successor clearing system.
(c)    [Reserved].
(d)    In connection with the transfer of the entire beneficial interest in a Global Certificate to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to Section 4.05(b) of this Trust Supplement, such Global Certificate shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by DTC in exchange for such owner’s beneficial interest in such Global Certificate an equal aggregate face amount of Definitive Certificates of authorized denominations, in each case as such beneficial owner and related aggregate face amount shall have been identified and otherwise set forth (together with such other information as may be required for the registration of such Definitive Certificates) in registration instructions that shall have been delivered by or on behalf of DTC to the Trustee. None of the Company, the Registrar or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such registration instructions and each such Person may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such registration instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Company, the Registrar and the Trustee shall recognize the Persons in whose name the Definitive Certificates are registered in the Register as Certificateholders hereunder.
(e)    Any Definitive Certificate delivered in exchange for an interest in the Global Certificate pursuant to Section 4.05(b) of this Trust Supplement shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 4.06(d) of this Trust Supplement, bear the Restricted Legend.
(f)    The Holder of any Global Certificate, at the direction of an owner of a beneficial interest therein, may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including DTC Participants and Persons that may hold interests through DTC Participants, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the Class B(R) Certificates.
(g)    Neither the Company, nor the Trustee, nor the Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for: (i) any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Global Certificates, (ii) maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or (iii) the performance by DTC, any DTC Participant or any Indirect Participant of their respective obligations under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC and its operation or any other statutory, regulatory, contractual or customary procedures governing their obligations.
(h)    [Reserved].
Section 4.06    Special Transfer Provisions. (a) Transfers Limited to QIBs and Spirit.
    19    


If the Class B(R) Certificate is to be transferred, the Registrar shall register the transfer only if such transfer is being made to Spirit or any of its subsidiaries or to a proposed transferee who has provided the transfer notice attached to the form of Class B(R) Certificate stating, or has otherwise advised the Trustee and the Registrar in writing, that it is purchasing the Class B(R) Certificate for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion and that it, or the Person on whose behalf it is acting with respect to, any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A.
(b)    Restricted Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Class B(R) Certificates not bearing the Restricted Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Class B(R) Certificates that do not bear the Restricted Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Class B(R) Certificates bearing the Restricted Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Class B(R) Certificates that bear the Restricted Legend, unless there is delivered to the Registrar and the Company an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.
(c)    General. The Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Class B(R) Certificate unless such transfer complies with the restrictions on transfer of such Class B(R) Certificate set forth in this Trust Supplement. In connection with any transfer of Class B(R) Certificates, each Class B(R) Certificateholder agrees, by its acceptance of the Class B(R) Certificates to furnish the Registrar or the Trustee and the Company such certifications, legal opinions or other information as either of them may reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Section 4.06; provided that the Registrar and the Trustee shall not be required to determine the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions or other information and shall be fully protected in relying thereon.
Until such time as no Class B(R) Certificates remain outstanding, the Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices, certifications and other written communications received pursuant to Section 4.05 of this Trust Supplement or this Section 4.06. The Company and the Trustee, if not the Registrar at such time, shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices, certifications or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

Any request, notice, direction, consent, waiver or other instrument or action by any Class B(R) Certificateholder shall bind the successors and assigns of such Class B(R) Certificateholder.
Section 10.08    Normal Commercial Relations. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee and any Class B(R) Certificateholder, or any bank or other Affiliate of any such party, may conduct any banking or other financial transactions, and have banking and other commercial relationships, with the Company fully to the same extent as if this Agreement were not in effect, including without limitation the making of loans or other extensions of credit to the Company for any purpose whatsoever, whether related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise.
Section 10.09    No Recourse against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, agent, member, manager, trustee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any successor Person shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any successor Person, either directly or through the Company or any successor Person, under the Class B(R) Certificates or this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation, whether by virtue of any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision of by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise.

To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is one of the duly authorized Certificates designated as “Spirit Airlines Pass Through Certificates, Series 2025-1B(R)” (herein called the “Certificates”).

By virtue of its acceptance hereof, the Certificateholder of this Certificate assents to and agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of the Agreement and each Intercreditor Agreement, including the subordination provisions of Section 9.09 of each Intercreditor Agreement. The Trust Property is expected to include certain Equipment Notes and includes all rights of the Trust and the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to receive any payments under each Intercreditor Agreement. Each issue of the Equipment Notes will be secured by, among other things, a security interest in the Aircraft owned by the Company. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Agreement and this Certificate, the Agreement shall control.
†     To be included on the face of each Global Certificate.

The Certificates represent Fractional Undivided Interests in the Trust and the Trust Property, and will have no rights, benefits or interest in respect of any other separate trust established pursuant to the terms of the Basic Agreement for any other series of certificates issued pursuant thereto.
Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreements, from funds then available to the Trustee, there will be distributed on each April 1 and October 1 (each, a “Regular Distribution Date”), commencing on October 1, 2025, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the Regular Distribution Date, an amount in respect of the Scheduled Payments on the Series B(R) Equipment Notes due on such Regular Distribution Date, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Scheduled Payments. Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreements, in the event that Special Payments on the Series B(R) Equipment Notes are received by the Trustee, from funds then available to the Trustee, there shall be distributed on the applicable Special Distribution Date, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the 15th day preceding the applicable Special Distribution Date, an amount in respect of such Special Payments on the Series B(R) Equipment Notes, the receipt of which has been confirmed by the Trustee, equal to the product of the percentage interest in the Trust evidenced by this Certificate and an amount equal to the sum of such Special Payments so received. If a Regular Distribution Date or Special Distribution Date is not a Business Day, distribution shall be made on the immediately following Business Day and no interest shall accrue during the intervening period. The Trustee shall mail (or in the case of Global Certificates, send electronically in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures) notice of each Special Payment and the Special Distribution Date therefor to the Certificateholder of this Certificate.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto, without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any notation hereon, except that with respect to Certificates registered on the Record Date in the name of a Clearing Agency (or its nominee), such distributions shall be made by wire transfer. Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after notice mailed (or in the case of Global Certificates, sent electronically in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures) by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency of the Trustee specified in such notice.
The Certificates do not represent a direct obligation of, or an obligation guaranteed by, or an interest in, the Company, the Trustee, the Subordination Agent, any Loan Trustee or any Affiliate of any thereof. The Certificates are limited in right of payment, all as more specifically set forth on the face hereof and in the Agreement. All payments or distributions made to Certificateholders under the Agreement shall be made only from the Trust Property and only to the extent that the Trustee shall have sufficient income or proceeds from the Trust Property to make such payments in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Each Certificateholder of
B-7



this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will look solely to the income and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent available for any payment or distribution to such Certificateholder pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and that it will not have any recourse to the Company, the Trustee, the Loan Trustees or any Affiliate of any thereof except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreement, in any Note Document or in the Intercreditor Agreements. This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby. A copy of the Agreement may be examined during normal business hours at the principal office of the Trustee, and at such other places, if any, designated by the Trustee, by any Certificateholder upon request.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof, and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement, at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Certificateholders holding Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than a majority in interest in the Trust. Any such consent by the Certificateholder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Certificateholder and upon all future Certificateholders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders of any of the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Registrar, or by any successor Registrar, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar, duly executed by the Certificateholder hereof or such Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. Each transferee of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.10 of the Certificate Purchase Agreement as though it were a party thereto.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 (or such other denomination that is the lowest integral multiple of $1,000 that is, at the time of issuance, equal to at least 1,000 euros) Fractional Undivided Interest and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a different denomination. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust, as requested by the Certificateholder surrendering the same.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and any agent of the Trustee shall deem and treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Each Certificateholder and Person with a beneficial interest herein, by its acceptance of this Certificate or such interest, agrees (and shall be deemed to have agreed) to treat the Trust as a grantor trust for all U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes.
The obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to the Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust Property.
Any Person acquiring or accepting this Certificate or an interest herein will, by such acquisition or acceptance, be deemed to (a) represent and warrant to the Company, the Loan Trustees and the Trustee that either: (i) no assets of a Plan or any trust established with respect to a Plan have been used to purchase or hold this Certificate or an interest herein or (ii) the purchase and holding of this Certificate or interest herein by such Person are exempt from the prohibited transaction restrictions of ERISA and the Code or provisions of Similar Law pursuant to one or more prohibited transaction statutory or administrative exemptions or similar exemptions under Similar Law and (b) direct the Trustee to invest the assets held in the Trust pursuant to, and take all other actions contemplated by, the terms and conditions of the Basic Agreement, this Trust Supplement, the Intercreditor Agreements and the NPA.
Any Person who is an ERISA Plan and is acquiring or accepting this Certificate or an interest herein will, by such acquisition or acceptance, be deemed to represent and warrant to the Company, the Loan Trustees and the Trustee that (i) none of Spirit, the Placement Agent, the Class B(R) Trustee or any of their respective affiliates or other persons that provide marketing services, nor any of their affiliates, has provided, and none of them will provide, any investment recommendation or investment advice on which it, or any fiduciary or other person investing the assets of the Plan (the “Plan Fiduciary”) has relied or will rely as a primary basis in connection with its decision to invest in the Class B(R) Certificates, and they are not otherwise acting as a fiduciary, as defined in Section 3(21) of ERISA, Section 4975(e)(3) of the Code, or applicable Similar Law, to the Plan or the Plan Fiduciary in connection with the Plan’s acquisition, acceptance, holding or disposition of the Class B(R) Certificates (unless a statutory or administrative exemption applies (all of the applicable conditions of which are satisfied) or the transaction is not otherwise prohibited) ; and (ii) the Plan Fiduciary is exercising its own independent judgment in evaluating the transaction.

SAMPLE OFFERING DOCUMENT LANGUAGE
DESCRIBING BOOK-ENTRY-ONLY ISSUANCE
(Prepared by DTC--bracketed material may be applicable only to certain issues)
1.    The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the securities (the “Securities”). The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will be issued for [each issue of] the Securities, [each] in the aggregate principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. [If, however, the aggregate principal amount of [any] issue exceeds $500 million, one certificate will be issued with respect to each $500 million of principal amount, and an additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal amount of such issue.]
2.    DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DT CC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has a Standard & Poor’s rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com.
3.    Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct Participants’ and Indirect Participants’ records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Securities are to be
        Trust Supplement No. 2025-1B(R)
         


accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct Participants and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Securities is discontinued.
4.    To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct Participants and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
5.    Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.]
[6.    Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an issue are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.]
6.    Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Securities unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
7.    Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from Issuer or Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or
        


registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or Issuer, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of Issuer or Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct Participants and Indirect Participants.
[9.    A Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities purchased or tendered, through its Participant, to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent, and shall effect delivery of such Securities by causing the Direct Participant to transfer the Participant’s interest in the Securities, on DTC’s records, to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent. The requirement for physical delivery of Securities in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct Participants on DTC’s records and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered Securities to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent’s DTC account.]
8.    DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to Issuer or Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
9.    Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
10.    The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that Issuer believes to be reliable, but Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.
