(g) the principal amortization schedule with respect to such Series, if any;

(h) the name of the Clearing Agency for such Series, if any;

(i) any deposit of funds to be made in any Indenture Trust Account on the Series Closing Date; and

(j) any other relevant terms of such Series of Notes (all such terms in clauses (a) through (j) of this Section 2.3, the “Principal Terms” of such Series).

Section 2.4 Execution and Authentication.

(a) In connection with their issuance pursuant to Section 2.2, the Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuers by an Authorized Officer of the Issuers and delivered by the Issuers to the Trustee for authentication and redelivery as provided herein. The signature of each such Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. If an Authorized Officer of the Issuers whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

(b) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Base Indenture, the Issuers may deliver Notes of any particular Series pursuant to Section 2.2 executed by the Issuers to the Trustee for authentication, together with one or more Company Orders for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee, in accordance with such Company Order, this Base Indenture and the applicable Series Supplement, shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.

(c) No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for below, duly executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of a Trust Officer. Such signatures on such certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that the Note has been duly authenticated under this Base Indenture. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate Notes. Unless limited by the term of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Base Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such authenticating agent. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

“This is one of the Notes of a Series of Notes issued under the within mentioned Indenture.


Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee

By:
		Authorized Signatory”

(d) Each Note shall be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Trustee.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuers, and the Issuers shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.14 together with a written statement to the Trustee and the Back-Up Manager (which need not comply with Section 14.2) stating that such Note has never been issued and sold by the Issuers, for all purposes of the Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

Section 2.5 Registrar and Paying Agent.

(a) The Issuers shall (i) maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and (ii) appoint a paying agent (which shall satisfy the eligibility criteria set forth in Section 10.8(a)) (the “Paying Agent”) at whose office or agency Notes may be presented for payment. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (including the name and address of each such Noteholder) and of their transfer and exchange. The Trustee shall indicate in its books and records the principal amount of Notes held by each Noteholder from time to time. The Issuers may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” shall include any additional paying agent and the term “Registrar” shall include any co-registrars. The Issuers may change the Paying Agent or the Registrar without prior notice to any Noteholder. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Base Indenture. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Registrar and the Paying Agent. Upon any resignation or removal of the Registrar, the Issuers shall promptly appoint a successor Registrar or, in the absence of such appointment, the Issuers shall assume the duties of the Registrar.

(b) The Issuers shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Base Indenture. Such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Base Indenture that relate to such Agent. If the Issuers fail to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee hereby agrees to act, upon written request of the Issuers, as such, and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with this Base Indenture until the Issuers shall appoint a replacement Registrar or Paying Agent, as applicable.

Section 2.6 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

(a) The Issuers will cause the Paying Agent (if the Paying Agent is not the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which the Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee (and if the Trustee is the Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 2.6, that the Paying Agent will:

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

(ii) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Issuers of which it has Actual Knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

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

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

(v) comply with all requirements of the Code and other applicable tax laws (including for the avoidance of doubt, the United States Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act) with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

(b) The Issuers may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture or for any other purpose, by Company Order direct the Paying Agent to deliver to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee in trust upon the same terms as those upon which the sums were held in trust by the Paying Agent. Upon such delivery by the Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

(c) Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuers upon delivery of a Company Order. The Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuers for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuers), and all liability of the Trustee or the Paying Agent with respect to such trust money paid to the Issuers shall thereupon cease; provided that the Trustee or the Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuers, cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in New York City. notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers or in accordance with applicable law. The Trustee may also adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuers, any other commercially reasonable means of notification of such repayment.

Section 2.7 Noteholder List.

(a) The Trustee will furnish or cause to be furnished by the Registrar to the Issuers, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative or the Paying Agent, within two (2) Business Days after receipt by the Trustee of a request therefor from the Issuers, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative or the Paying Agent, respectively, in writing, the names and addresses of the Noteholders of each Series as of the most recent Record Date for payments to such Noteholders. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement, the Trustee, after having been adequately indemnified by Note Owners satisfying the requirements set forth in Section 11.5(b) (“Applicants”) for its costs and expenses, shall afford or shall cause the Registrar to afford such Applicants access during normal business hours to the most recent list of Noteholders held by the Trustee or the Registrar, as the case may be, and shall give the Issuers notice that such request has been made, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such application. Such list shall be as of a date no more than forty-five (45) days prior to the date of receipt of such Applicants’ request. Every Noteholder, by receiving and holding a Note, agrees with the Trustee that neither the Trustee, the Registrar nor any of their respective agents shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was obtained.

(b) The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Noteholders of each Series of Notes. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish or shall cause to be furnished to the Trustee or the Paying Agent at such times as the Trustee or the Paying Agent may request in writing (within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Issuers of any such request), a list of the names and addresses of Noteholders of each Series of Notes.

Section 2.8 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Subject to Section 2.12 and 2.13, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Registrar, if the requirements of Section 2.8(f) are met, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, in any authorized denominations, of the same Series and Class and a like original aggregate principal amount of the Notes so transferred. At the option of any Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Series and Class in authorized denominations of like original aggregate principal amount of the Notes so exchanged, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Registrar maintained for such purpose. Whenever Notes of any Series are so surrendered for exchange, if the requirements of Section 2.8(f) are met, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

(b) Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be (i) duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Issuers and the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing with a medallion signature guarantee and (ii) accompanied by such other documents as the Trustee and the Registrar may require to document the identities and/or signatures of the transferor and the transferee (including the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9). The Issuers shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or the Registrar, as applicable, Notes in such amounts and at such times as are necessary to enable the Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under the Indenture and the Notes.

(c) All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuers, evidencing the same indebtedness, and entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

beneficially, by the Issuers or any Affiliate of the Issuers shall be considered as though they are not Outstanding, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes of which a Trust Officer has received written notice of such ownership shall be so disregarded. Absent written notice to a Trust Officer of such ownership, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the identity of the individual Note Owners.

The Trustee shall have control of all amounts and other property on deposit in the Indenture Trust Accounts for the benefit of the Secured Parties (or, in respect of the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account, the Class A Noteholders) as part of the Collateral. The Trustee shall invest and reinvest funds deposited in the Indenture Trust Accounts when so instructed by the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) (which may be in the form of standing instructions) in Eligible Investments maturing no later than the Business Day preceding each Quarterly Allocation Date; provided that, in each case, such Indenture Trust Account is (A) an Eligible Account, (B) pledged by the Issuers to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties (or, in respect of the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account, the Class A Noteholders) pursuant to Section 3.1 and (C) if not established with the Trustee, subject to an Account Control Agreement. In the absence of instruction from the Issuers (or the Manager on behalf of the Issuers, or the LC Administrative Agent in connection with the LC Provider Accounts), funds in the Indenture Trust Accounts will remain uninvested. All income or other gain from such Eligible Investments will be credited to the related Indenture Trust Account, and any loss resulting from such investments will be charged to the related Indenture Trust Account. Any investments in respect of amounts on deposit in any LC Provider Account relating to an Ineligibility Drawing shall be made at the direction of the applicable LC Provider in accordance with Section 5.13(h). The Issuers shall not direct (or permit) the disposal of any Eligible Investments prior to the maturity thereof if such disposal would result in a loss of any portion of the initial purchase price of such Eligible Investment. In no event will the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon. The Trustee will not have any liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity, or the failure of the Issuers or Manager to provide timely written instruction. The Trustee shall have no liability for any delay or fees imposed in liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity date.

(c) Investment Income. On a quarterly basis at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Quarterly Allocation Date, the Trustee shall calculate and notify the Manager of the Investment Income earned and transfer any Investment Income on deposit in the Indenture Trust Accounts (other than the Collection Account or the LC Provider Accounts) to the Collection Account for application as Collections on that Quarterly Allocation Date.

(d) Payment Instructions. In accordance with and subject to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Issuers shall cause the Manager to instruct (i) SCI or each guarantor thereunder to make payments under the Spectrum Lease to the Lease Payment Account and (ii) any other Person (not an Affiliate of the Issuers) obligated at any time to make any payments with respect to the Collateral to make such payment to the Collection Account or the LC Provider Accounts (to the extent required under this Base Indenture).

(e) Misdirected Collections. The Issuers agree that if any Collections shall be received by the Issuers or any other Securitization Entity in an account other than an Account or in any other manner, such monies, instruments, cash and other proceeds will not be commingled by the Issuers or such other Securitization Entity with any of their other funds or property, if any, but will be held separate and apart therefrom and shall be held in trust by the Issuers or such other Securitization Entity for, and, within one (1) Business Day of the identification of such payment, paid over to, the Trustee, with any necessary endorsement. All monies, instruments, cash and other proceeds of the Collateral received by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture shall be immediately deposited in the Collection Account and shall be applied as provided in this Article V.

Section 5.8 Application of Quarterly Collections on Quarterly Allocation Dates. On each Quarterly Payment Date, the Trustee shall, based solely on the information contained in the Quarterly Manager’s Certificate received by the Trustee on the Quarterly Allocation Date relating to such Quarterly Payment Date, withdraw the amount on deposit in the Collection Account as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such Quarterly Payment Date for payment (or allocation to the Reserve Accounts) in the following order of priority:

(i) first, solely with respect to any funds on deposit in the Collection Account on such Quarterly Payment Date consisting of Repurchase Principal Amounts, in the following priority:

(v) fifth, unless a Manager Termination Event has occurred and is continuing (other than Manager Termination Events under clauses (iii) and (iv) of the definition thereof during any period in which a successor Manager has replaced the initial Manager under the Management Agreement, in which case, the Management Fee shall remain payable under this clause (v) to such successor), to pay the Manager all Management Fees and all other reimbursable costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Manager in connection with the performance of its duties as Manager;

(vi) sixth, (a) pro rata (i) prior to the occurrence of an Ineligibility Drawing and any Final Drawing with respect to any Interest Reserve Letter of Credit, to pay to the related LC Providers in accordance with each LC Facility, an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of drawings under such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit and accrued and unpaid interest and letter of credit fees under and in accordance with such LC Facilities and (ii) following the occurrence of an Ineligibility Drawing with respect to any Ineligible LC and prior to any Final Drawing, to pay to the related Ineligible LC Provider (A) letter of credit fees in respect of any drawn but unused portion of such Ineligible LC, and (B) accrued and unpaid reimbursement obligations and interest and letter of credit fees under and in accordance with each LC Facility in respect of any Applied Amounts; and (b) following the Final Drawing, to pay to all LC Providers, on a pro rata basis any accrued and unpaid reimbursement obligations and interest and letter of credit fees under and in accordance with each LC Facility in respect of the related Interest Reserve Letter of Credit;

(viii) eighth, in the following order of priority: (a) to deposit in the Issuers Interest Reserve Account of the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account, an amount equal to any Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account Deficiency Amount then (b) at the Manager’s sole discretion, if an Ineligibility Drawing has been made and (x) there is no Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account Deficiency Amount or Required Expense Reserve Deficiency Amount on such date, and no Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account Deficiency Amount, Required Expense Reserve Deficiency Amount or Default would result therefrom, and (y) no payment of interest, principal or Class A Make-Whole Prepayment Premium then due and payable in respect of the Class A Notes or of expenses payable pursuant to clauses (iii) or (iv) above would have to be deferred as a result thereof, to pay to the Ineligible LC Providers in accordance with each LC Facility, an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of the Ineligibility Drawing;

(ix) ninth, (a) if a Rapid Amortization Event or an acceleration of the Class A Notes upon an Event of Default has not occurred or is not continuing (1) to pay to the Class A Noteholders (on a pro rata basis) an amount equal to any Class A Notes Accrued Quarterly Scheduled Principal Amount together with any Class A Notes Quarterly Scheduled Principal Deficiency Amount and (2) to pay to the Class A Noteholders (pro rata) principal in respect of any Optional Prepayment or (b) if a Rapid Amortization Event or an acceleration of the Class A Notes upon an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to pay to the Class A Noteholders principal on the Class A Notes (on a pro rata basis) until the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Class A Notes is reduced to zero;

(x) tenth, to the payment of any accrued and unpaid Securitization Operating Expenses not paid under clause (iv) above due to the cap set forth therein, and any accrued and unpaid interest owed in respect thereof at the Advance Interest Rate;

(xii) twelfth, to pay the Residual Amount at the direction of the Issuers.

All payments of interest, principal and Class A Make-Whole Prepayment Premium will be made on a pro rata basis as between the Class A Notes based on the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount thereof. All amounts on deposit in the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account that will be applied on a Quarterly Payment Date in respect of any payment of the Class A Notes Accrued Quarterly Interest Shortfall on such date will be withdrawn directly from the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account and applied toward such payment in accordance with the Interest Reserve Funding Priority. Each Secured Party agrees that its claims against an Issuer or Guarantor for payment of amounts are subordinate to any claims ranking higher in the Priority of Payments (each such prior claim, a “Senior Claim”), which subordination shall continue until the holder of such Senior Claim, or the Security Trustee on its behalf, has received the full cash amount of such Senior Claim.

Section 5.9 Payments from Indenture Trust Accounts.

(a) On each Quarterly Payment Date, the amounts deposited to the Collection Account in respect of the related Quarterly Collection Period, together with, if necessary, the amounts on deposit in the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account that are available to make payments on the Class A Notes, will be available to the Trustee to make required payments and deposits in respect of the Class A Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of the Indenture. To the extent that there is a Class A Notes Accrued Quarterly Interest Shortfall on any Quarterly Payment Date, amounts

available to be drawn under any Interest Reserve Letters of Credit or the LC Provider Accounts, as applicable, will be drawn on a pro rata basis based on the LC Availability Portion and applied to the payment of such Class A Notes Accrued Quarterly Interest Shortfall in accordance with the Interest Reserve Funding Priority.

(b) On each Quarterly Payment Date, amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, together with, if necessary, amounts on deposit in the Required Expense Reserve Account, will be available to make payments in respect of Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses, Securitization Operating Expenses and all Management Provider Fees.

(c) On or prior to each Quarterly Calculation Date, the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) will calculate all amounts due and payable on the following Quarterly Payment Date under each clause of the Priority of Payments. On or prior to the Quarterly Allocation Date relating to such Quarterly Payment Date, the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) will furnish the Quarterly Manager’s Certificate to the Trustee setting forth such calculations, and will instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw the funds from the Collection Account in respect of the related Quarterly Collection Period for application in accordance with the Priority of Payments (as set forth in the Quarterly Manager’s Certificate) on the following Quarterly Payment Date.

(d) On each Quarterly Payment Date, to the extent that funds on deposit in the Collection Account in respect of the related Quarterly Collection Period are insufficient to pay the accrued and unpaid Class A Notes Quarterly Interest Amount due and payable on such Quarterly Payment Date, the funds on deposit in the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account (or funds drawn for such purpose under any Interest Reserve Letter of Credit relating to the Class A Notes) will be applied by the Trustee in accordance with the Interest Reserve Funding Priority at the written instruction of the Manager (acting on behalf of the Issuers) to pay (pro rata according to the amounts then due and payable) the Class A Notes Accrued Quarterly Interest Shortfall.

(e) If, as determined on any Quarterly Calculation Date (including any Quarterly Calculation Date following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event or an acceleration of the Notes following an Event of Default), amounts on deposit in the Collection Account will be insufficient to pay all amounts payable by the Issuers of the Transaction Expenses under and in accordance with the Priority of Payments on the related Quarterly Payment Date (but subject to any cap applicable thereto), on the related Quarterly Allocation Date, the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) will direct the Trustee to withdraw an amount equal to the amount of such deficiency from the Required Expense Reserve and deposit it into the Collection Account for payment of such Transaction Expenses under and in accordance with the Priority of Payments on the related Quarterly Payment Date.

(f) Optional Prepayments. The Issuers shall have the right to optionally prepay the Outstanding Principal Amount of all or any Tranche of the Class A Notes, in whole or in part in accordance with the related Series Supplement, subject to payment of principal, interest and any “make-whole” specified in the related Series Supplement.

Section 5.10 Determination of Quarterly Interest.

Quarterly payments of principal of, and Class A Make-Whole Prepayment Premium, if any, and interest on each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated and distributed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Series Supplement.

Section 5.11 Determination of Quarterly Principal.

Quarterly payments of principal, if any, of each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated and distributed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Series Supplement.

Section 5.12 Prepayment of Principal.

Mandatory prepayments of principal, if any, of each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated and distributed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Series Supplement, if not otherwise described herein.

Section 5.13 Interest Reserve Letters of Credit.

(a) The Issuers may, in lieu of depositing cash in the Issuers Interest Reserve Account in the full amount of the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Amount that is required to be held in the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account, maintain one or more Interest Reserve Letters of Credit under an LC Facility for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Class A Noteholders. The Interest Reserve Letters of Credit may provide LC Availability equal to all or any portion of the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Amount. The Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) shall provide notice to the Trustee and the Control Party of any new Interest Reserve Letter of Credit at least five (5) Business Days prior to the initial issuance thereunder and the Trustee shall (at the direction of the Manager, acting on behalf of the Issuers) execute an acknowledgement of the terms of the relevant LC Facility in favor of the LC Providers prior to such date of issuance. For so long as no Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event or acceleration of the Class A Note following an Event of Default has occurred, subject to the Interest Reserve Funding Priority, the Interest Reserve Letters of Credit shall be drawn pro rata to fund any Class A Notes Accrued Quarterly Interest Shortfall in respect of the Class A Notes, which drawn amounts shall be deposited into the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account and applied to the applicable LC Provider Account. Following the occurrence of a Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event or acceleration following an Event of Default, the Interest Reserve Letters of Credit shall be drawn in full in connection with the Final Drawing, as described below, and the drawn amounts shall be deposited into the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account and applied to the applicable LC Provider Account and the Interest Reserve Letters of Credit shall be returned to the applicable LC Provider.

(b) If on any Quarterly Allocation Date the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) instruct the Trustee to withdraw funds from the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account, such funds shall be drawn (i) first, from amounts, if any, on deposit in the Issuers Interest Reserve Account, and (ii) second, pro rata, in respect of each of the LC Providers (based on their respective LC Availability Portions), from, on a pro rata basis, (x) amounts on deposit in the LC Interest Reserve Account, if any, and (y) amounts available to be drawn under their respective Interest Reserve Letters of Credit, in each case, as of such Quarterly Payment Date (such priority, the “Interest Reserve Funding Priority”).

(c) Each Interest Reserve Letter of Credit (1) will name the Trustee, on behalf of the Class A Noteholders, as the beneficiary thereof, (2) will allow the Issuers (or the Manager on behalf of the Issuers) to submit a notice of drawing in respect of such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit whenever amounts are required to be withdrawn from the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account and in the circumstances described in the immediately following paragraph, (3) will have an expiration date of no earlier than the first anniversary of its date of issuance (or if earlier, the Series Legal Final Maturity Date for the relevant Series of Notes) and (4) will provide that the proceeds in respect of drawings under such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit will be paid directly into the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Criteria”).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture or any other Transaction Document to the contrary, if one or more Interest Reserve Letters of Credit are issued following the deposit of the

Initial Class A Notes Interest Reserve Amount in the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account on the Closing Date and such issuance causes an Excess Interest Reserve Amount to be on deposit in the Issuers Interest Reserve Account, then within two Business Days of any such issuance, the Issuers may distribute in cash (only to the extent there are amounts on deposit in the Issuers Interest Reserve Account) such Excess Interest Reserve Amount to their respective parent entities, such that the aggregate amount of all such distributions since the Closing Date does not exceed the amount of the Initial Class A Interest Reserve Amount, and such parent entities may further distribute such amounts, in each case, so long as (i) at the time of such distributions (A) no Default, Potential Rapid Amortization Event or Rapid Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing and (B) no Interest Reserve Letter of Credit is an Ineligible Interest Reserve Letter of Credit and (ii) the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) shall have delivered to the Trustee and Control Party a notice in respect thereof and certifying as to the foregoing. Following the distributions of Excess Interest Reserve Amounts in accordance with this paragraph in an amount up to the Initial Class A Interest Reserve Amount (collectively, the “Issuers Reserve Distribution”), subsequent distributions of Excess Interest Reserve Amounts shall be made as provided below.

(e) If on any Quarterly Payment Date following the issuance of one or more Interest Reserve Letters of Credit, the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Amount has decreased in connection with any reduction in the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Class A Notes, the resulting Excess Interest Reserve Amount shall be applied towards the reduction of (a) the LC Obligations of any Ineligible LC Provider and (b) the LC Availability Portion for any LC Provider that is not an Ineligible LC Provider, pro rata among all LC Providers based on their respective LC Availability Portions. In connection therewith, on such Quarterly Payment Date, (i) the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Manager (acting on behalf of the Issuers)) shall withdraw and release the amount required under clause (a) above from the related LC Provider Accounts for payment to the related LC Providers and (ii) the LC Availability of any Interest Reserve Letter of Credit for which an Ineligibility Drawing has not been made shall be reduced, in an aggregate amount, concurrent with the applications set forth in (a) and (b), not to exceed the Excess Interest Reserve Amount. If any Excess Interest Reserve Amount exists in the Issuers Interest Reserve Account following the application of the amounts set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above, such Excess Interest Reserve Amount (or portion thereof) shall be withdrawn by the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Manager (acting on behalf of the Issuers)) and deposited into the Collection Account on the related Quarterly Payment Date for application in accordance with the Priority of Payments. “Excess Interest Reserve Amount” means the amount, if any, by which the aggregate amount on deposit in the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account plus the LC Availability exceeds the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Amount.

(f) An Interest Reserve Letter of Credit shall become an “Ineligible LC” if either (a) five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration of such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit, such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit has not been replaced or renewed and the Issuers have not otherwise deposited funds into the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account in the amounts that would otherwise be required had such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit not been issued, or (b) on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date on which such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit became an Ineligible Interest Reserve Letter of Credit (or, if earlier, the expiration date of such Ineligible Interest Reserve Letter Credit) (i) a replacement Interest Reserve Letter of Credit that satisfies the Letter of Credit Criteria and provides an availability at least equal to the availability provided under such Ineligible Interest Reserve Letter of Credit (a “Qualified Replacement LC”) has not been delivered to the Issuers, and (ii) the relevant Rating Agency has not provided confirmation that the downgrade or rating withdrawal resulting in such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit becoming an Ineligible Interest Reserve Letter of Credit will not result in a downgrading, withdrawal or suspension by such Rating Agency of the rating then in effect for the Notes. Each LC Provider of an Ineligible LC is also referred to as an “Ineligible LC Provider.”

(g) On the Business Day following the date that (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day) any Interest Reserve Letter of Credit becomes an Ineligible LC, the Trustee (at the direction of the Issuers) or the Control Party (on the Issuers’ behalf) shall submit a notice of drawing under such Ineligible LC and use the proceeds thereof to fund a deposit into the LC Provider Account of the related Ineligible LC Provider in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account Deficiency Amount, on such date, calculated as if such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit had not been issued and (y) the total available undrawn amount of the such Ineligible LC (each such a drawing, an “Ineligibility Drawing”) and following such Ineligibility Drawing no additional amounts shall be available for drawing under such Ineligible LC and the Ineligible LC shall be returned to the related LC Provider.

(h) If an Ineligibility Drawing has occurred in respect of any Ineligible LC, the related Ineligible LC Provider shall have the right to direct the Manager who shall (on behalf of the Issuers) direct the Trustee to invest the drawn amount on deposit in the LC Provider Account relating to such Ineligible LC Provider in Eligible Investments. In the absence of such direction, funds in the LC Provider Account shall remain uninvested. All income or other gain from such Eligible Investments shall be credited to such LC Provider Account for the benefit of the related Ineligible LC Provider and shall be released by the Trustee (in accordance with the Quarterly Manager’s Certificate) on each Quarterly Payment Date to such Ineligible LC Provider and such Ineligible LC shall be returned to the applicable LC Provider. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon. The Trustee shall not have any liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation, for any delay or fees imposed in relation to the liquidation, or receiving the liquidation proceeds of any investment, or losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity, or the failure of the Ineligible LC Provider or the Manager (on behalf of the Issuers) to provide timely written instruction.

(i) If either (i) an Ineligible LC has ceased to be an Ineligible LC as a result of the conditions provided in clauses (a) and/or (b) of the definition thereof have ceasing to exist (any such cessation, an “Ineligibility Cure”) or (ii) such Ineligible LC has been replaced by a Qualified Replacement LC, then on the following Quarterly Payment Date, the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) shall instruct the Trustee to release amounts on deposit in the relevant LC Provider Account directly for payment to the related Ineligible LC Provider and return the applicable Ineligible LC to the related LC Provider. Following any Ineligibility Cure, the related LC Provider and Interest Reserve Letter of Credit shall no longer be treated as an Ineligible LC Provider or an Ineligible LC, respectively.

(j) Promptly following the occurrence of a Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event or the acceleration of the Class A Notes following an Event of Default, the Trustee, at the direction of the Manager (acting on behalf of the Issuers) shall submit a notice of drawing under each Interest Reserve Letter of Credit for the full available undrawn amount of such Interest Reserve Letter of Credit (but in no event in excess of the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Amount), and all such amounts drawn shall be deposited by the Trustee into the Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account and credited to the applicable LC Provider Account for application in accordance with the Priority of Payments (such drawings collectively, the “Final Drawing”) and following such Final Drawing (i) no additional amounts shall be available for drawing under the Interest Reserve Letters of Credit and each Interest Reserve Letter of Credit shall be returned to the applicable LC Provider and (ii) any Ineligibility Drawing in the LC Account of such Ineligible LC Provider shall be automatically converted to a Final Drawing.

(k) At any time after forty-eight (48) months from the earliest to occur of (x) the date on which the entire available amount under any Interest Reserve Letter of Credit shall have been drawn in full (excluding an Ineligibility Drawing (unless a Final Drawing has been made in respect of the remaining Interest Reserve Letters of Credit, in which case this clause (x) shall continue to apply)) and

remains unreimbursed or (y) the date on which a Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event or an acceleration of the Class A Notes has occurred, the LC Administrative Agent on behalf of the LC Providers holding a majority of their aggregate outstanding reimbursement obligations shall have the right to elect (an “LC Election”) to become the Controlling Class Representative. At any time that an LC Administrative Agent is the Controlling Class Representative, one or more Noteholders (individually, an “LC Obligation Purchaser” and collectively, the “LC Obligation Purchasers”) may elect to purchase all of the unreimbursed reimbursement obligations of all LC Providers (including Ineligible LC Providers), together with any unpaid interest and letter of credit fees (“LC Obligations”), whereupon the LC Providers shall sell the LC Obligations to the LC Obligation Purchaser for an amount in cash equal to the amount of the LC Obligations. In the event that more than one Noteholder elects to become an LC Obligation Purchaser, the LC Providers agree to sell to each such Noteholder that has elected to be an LC Obligation Purchaser on a pro rata basis. Following such sale, the LC Obligation Purchasers shall have the same rights with respect to payment of the LC Obligations from the Issuers as the LC Providers and the right to become Controlling Class Representative shall revert back to the Class A Noteholders as if the LC Election had not occurred.

Section 5.14 Replacement of Ineligible Accounts.

If, at any time, any Class A Notes Interest Reserve Account, the Collection Account or any Administrative Account shall cease to be an Eligible Account (each, an “Ineligible Account”), the Issuers shall (i) within five (5) Business Days of obtaining Actual Knowledge thereof, notify the Control Party thereof and (ii) within thirty (30) days of obtaining Actual Knowledge thereof, (A) establish, or cause to be established, a new account that is an Eligible Account in substitution for such Ineligible Account, (B) following the establishment of such new Eligible Account, transfer, or with respect to the Trustee Accounts maintained at the Trustee, instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer, all cash and investments from such Ineligible Account into such new Eligible Account, and (D) pledge, or cause to be pledged, such new Eligible Account to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, if such Ineligible Account is required to be subject to an Account Control Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, cause such new Eligible Account to be subject to an Account Control Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Control Party and the Trustee. In the event that any of the Collection Account or any Administrative Account becomes an Ineligible Account, the Manager shall, promptly following the establishment of such related new Eligible Account, notify each payor of a change in payment instructions, if any.

Section 5.15 Payment of Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses.

On any Business Day, from time to time, that there are Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses due and payable on such day (any such date, a “Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expense Payment Date”), unless the Manager has paid (or confirmed that it will pay) such Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses as a Manager Expense Payment on or prior to such day, the Issuers (or the Manager on their behalf) shall instruct the Trustee in writing to withdraw on such day an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the sum of all unpaid Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses due and payable on or prior to such Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expense Payment Date and (ii) the amount on deposit in the Required Expense Reserve after giving effect to any deposits thereto pursuant to the Priority of Payments on or before such day and apply such funds to pay any Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses then due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses are paid by a Successor Manager as Manager Expense Payments, such Successor Manager may cause the Trustee to reimburse such Successor Manager for such Manager Expense Payments on any Business Day as if it were otherwise making a payment of Spectrum Portfolio Maintenance Expenses.

ARTICLE VI

DISTRIBUTIONS

If the Issuers and the other Securitization Entities fail to perform any of their agreements or obligations under this Section 8.24(a), after written notice to the Issuers and the other Securitization Entities by the Trustee or the Back-Up Manager then the Back-Up Manager may perform such agreement or obligation, and the expenses of the Back-Up Manager incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Issuers upon the Back-Up Manager’s demand therefor in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

(c) If any Securitization Entity shall obtain an interest in any commercial tort claim or claims (as such term is defined in the New York UCC), any such Securitization Entity shall promptly (in any event within 10 Business Days) notify the Back-Up Manager that it has obtained such an interest and shall sign and deliver documentation reasonably acceptable to the Back-Up Manager granting a security interest under this Base Indenture or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, as the case may be, in and to such commercial tort claim or claims.

(d) The Issuers will, and will cause each other Securitization Entity to, warrant and defend the Trustee’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral and the income, distributions and Proceeds thereof, for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties, against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.

(e) The Issuers will, and will cause each other Securitization Entity to, cause all amounts deposited to the Collection Account to be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

(f) On or before each anniversary of the Closing Date, commencing with October 27, 2017, the Issuers shall furnish to the Trustee, the Rating Agencies for each Series of Notes Outstanding, the Back-Up Manager and the LC Administrative Agents an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Base Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other requisite documents and with respect to the execution and filing of any financing statements, continuation statements and amendments to financing statements and such other documents as are necessary to maintain the perfection of, or recordation of evidence of, as applicable, the Lien and security interest created by this Base Indenture and the Guarantee and Collateral

Agreement, as required hereunder and thereunder, under Article 9 of the applicable UCC and reciting the details of such action or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to maintain the perfection of such Lien and security interest. Each such Opinion of Counsel shall also describe the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Base Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other requisite documents and the execution and filing of any financing statements, continuation statements and amendment or other documents that will, in the opinion of such counsel, be required to maintain the perfection of the lien and security interest or record evidence, as applicable, of such security interest of this Base Indenture and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement under Article 9 of the applicable UCC in the Collateral until the following calendar year.

(g) On each Business Day on which amounts are held in the Lease Payment Account, the Manager, on behalf of the License Holders, will cause to be swept and deposited to the Collection Account (including pursuant to standing entitlement orders or other instructions evidencing a distribution in respect of the Collateral Interests issued by the License Holders in the Issuers), for application in accordance with the Priority of Payments, all Lease Payments and any other amounts paid to the License Holders pursuant to the Spectrum Lease.

Section 8.25 Defense of Claims.

Each Securitization Entity will agree, at its sole expense, to vigorously defend against any claimed or asserted actions, suits or proceedings, however arising, brought by any Person (other than any Secured Party) during the Specified Period against any Securitization Entity or any of its assets or otherwise in connection with the Transactions and, in furtherance of the foregoing, each Securitization Entity will take such action in such defense as shall be reasonably requested by the Required Noteholders, where “Specified Period” means the period from and after the date on which an event described in clause (iv) of the definition of “Management Termination Event” shall have occurred and prior to the occurrence of a Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event.

Section 8.27 Actions under the Collateral Transaction Documents and Transaction Documents.

(a) The Issuers will not, and will not permit any Securitization Entity which it controls to, take any action that would permit any Person party to a Collateral Transaction Document to have the right to refuse to perform any of its respective obligations under any of the Collateral Transaction Documents or that would result in the hypothecation, subordination, or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any Collateral Transaction Document (except as permitted under the Collateral Transaction Documents and the Indenture).

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.2(a) or any other Transaction Document, the Issuers agree that they will not, and will cause each Securitization Entity which it controls not to, without the prior written consent of the Control Party, exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege available to it with respect to any obligor under a Collateral Transaction Document or under any instrument or agreement included in the Collateral, take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by any such obligor of its obligations to the Issuers or such other Securitization Entity or give any consent, request, notice, direction or approval with respect to any such obligor if such action when

taken on behalf of any Securitization Entity by the Manager would constitute a breach by the Manager of the Management Agreement.

(c) The Issuers agree that they will not, and will cause each Securitization Entity not to, without the prior written consent of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), amend, modify, waive, supplement, terminate or surrender, or agree to any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or surrender of, the terms of any of the Transaction Documents except as permitted under the Transaction Documents.

(d) Upon the occurrence of a Manager Termination Event under the Management Agreement, (i) the Issuers will not, and will cause each Securitization Entity which it controls not to, without the prior written consent of the Control Party, terminate the Manager and appoint any Successor Manager in accordance with the Management Agreement (other than in the case of a Specified Manager Termination Event, in which case the Manager will automatically be terminated (without requiring any direction from the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative)) and (ii) the License Holders will terminate the Manager and appoint one or more Successor Managers in accordance with the Management Agreement with the approval of the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative).

may claim the property sold or any part thereof from, through or under such Securitization Entity or its successors or assigns; and

(iv) the receipt of the Trustee making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to any purchaser at such sale for their purchase money, and such purchaser, and their assigns or personal representatives, shall not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of the Trustee, be obliged to see to the application of such purchase money or be in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application thereof.

(h) Attorney in Fact. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each of the Trustee and the Control Party is hereby appointed (without the obligation) the attorney in fact of the Issuers for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Article IX and taking any action and executing any instruments that the Trustee and the Control Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney in fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Trustee shall be entitled under this Article IX to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Trustee shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of the Issuers representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.

Section 9.4 Waiver of Appraisal, Valuation, Stay and Right to Marshaling. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Issuer for itself and for any Person who may claim through or under it hereby:

(a) agrees that neither it nor any such Person shall step up, plead, claim or in any manner whatsoever take advantage of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws, now or hereafter in force in any jurisdiction, which may delay, prevent or otherwise hinder (i) the performance, enforcement or foreclosure of the Indenture or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (ii) the sale of any of the Collateral or (iii) the putting of the purchaser or purchasers thereof into possession of such property immediately after the sale thereof;

Section 9.5 Limited Recourse.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture, the Notes or any other Transaction Document or otherwise, the liability of the Securitization Entities to the Noteholders and any other Secured Parties under or in relation to the Indenture, the Notes or any other Transaction Document or otherwise, is limited in recourse to the property and assets of the Securitization Entities. The proceeds of the property and assets of the Securitization Entities having been applied in accordance with the terms hereof, none of the Noteholders or any other Secured Parties shall be entitled to take any further steps against any Securitization Entity to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other agreements or documents described in this Section 9.5, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished.

Section 9.6 Waiver of Past Events.

Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of each Series of Notes Outstanding as provided in Section 9.2 and subject to Section 13.2, the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) by notice to the Trustee, the Rating Agencies and the Back-Up Manager, may waive any existing Default or Event of Default described in any clause of Section 9.2 (except clause (a) thereof), Potential Rapid Amortization Events and Rapid Amortization Events and its consequences; provided that before any waiver may be effective, the Back-Up Manager must have received any reimbursement then due or payable in respect of unreimbursed Collateral Protection Advances (including interest thereon) or any other amounts then due to the Back-Up Manager or the Trustee hereunder or under the Transaction Documents; provided that the Control Party shall provide written notice of any such waiver to each Rating Agency for each Series of Notes Outstanding (with a copy to the Back-Up Manager). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. A Default or an Event of Default described in Section 9.2(a) shall not be subject to waiver without the consent of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) and each Noteholder. Subject to Section 13.2, the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), by notice to the Trustee, the Rating Agencies for each Series of Notes Outstanding and the Back-Up Manager, may waive any existing Potential Rapid Amortization Event or any existing Rapid Amortization Event; provided that a Rapid Amortization Event described in clause (a) or clause (b) of Section 9.1 relating to a particular Series of Notes shall not be permitted to be waived by any party unless each affected Secured Party has consented in writing to such waiver.

Section 9.7 Control by the Control Party.

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative, subject to Section 11.4(f)) may institute and direct the time, method and place of conducting, any proceeding in respect of any enforcement of the Collateral or conducting any proceeding in respect of any enforcement of Liens on the Collateral or conducting any proceeding for any

remedy available to the Trustee and to direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided that:

(a) such direction of time, method and place shall not be in conflict with any rule of law, the Manager Standard (if the Back-Up Manager is acting as Successor Manager), the Back-Up Management Standard or with the Indenture;

(b) the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) may take any other action deemed proper by the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) that is not inconsistent with such direction (as the same may be modified by the Control Party (with the consent of the Controlling Class Representative)); and

provided that, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction if it reasonably believes such direction violates law, the Back-Up Management Standard, the Base Indenture or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or it has not received reasonably satisfactory indemnity. The Trustee will take no action referred to in this Section 9.8 unless instructed to do so by the Control Party in writing.

Section 9.8 Limitation on Suits.

Any other provision of the Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, no holder of a Note has the right to pursue any remedy with respect to the Base Indenture or any other Transaction Document, unless:

(a) such Noteholder has given to the Trustee, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b) the Noteholders of at least 25% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of all then Outstanding Notes have made a written request to the Trustee, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative to pursue the remedy;

(f) the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) has consented to the pursuit of such remedy.

A Noteholder may not use the Indenture or any other Transaction Document to prejudice the rights of another Noteholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Noteholder.

Section 9.9 Rights of Noteholders.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to bring suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after such respective due dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder of the Note.

Section 9.10 The Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Trustee, its agents and counsel), the Noteholders and any other Secured Party (as applicable) allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Noteholder and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Noteholders or any other Secured Party, to pay the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 10.5. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses and disbursements of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 10.5 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money and other properties which any of the Noteholders or any other Secured Party may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder or any other Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Noteholder or any other Secured Party, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder or any other Secured Party in any such proceeding.

Section 9.11 Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under the Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of any undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 9.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Noteholder pursuant to Section 9.8, the Control Party or a suit by Noteholders of more than 10% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of all Series of Notes.

Section 9.12 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee, any Noteholder or any other Secured Party has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under the Indenture or any other Transaction Document and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned or dismissed for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Noteholder or other Secured Party, then and in every such case the Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee, the Noteholders and the other Secured Parties shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

Section 9.13 Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

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

Section 9.14 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, any Noteholder or any other Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Potential Rapid Amortization Event, Rapid Amortization Event, Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event, Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Potential Rapid Amortization Event, Rapid Amortization Event, Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article IX or by law to the Trustee, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, the Noteholders or any other Secured Party may be exercised from time to time to the extent not inconsistent with the Indenture, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, the Noteholders or any other Secured Party, as the case may be.

Section 9.15 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.

The Issuers covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of the Indenture or any other Transaction Document; and the Issuers (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantages of any such law, and covenant that they will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, any foreclosure on or sale or other transfer or disposition of any of the Collateral pursuant to the Spectrum Realization Procedures or otherwise, including by way of a sale, transfer, or disposition of Equity Interests in the License Holders or the Issuers, or other exercise of remedies in respect of the Collateral (a “Disposition”) that results in changing the de jure or de facto control of the Directly-Held Licenses or de facto control of the Third-Party Leased Licenses from the License Holders to any other Person shall be conducted in accordance with the Communications Laws and, if and to the extent required thereby, subject to the prior approval of the FCC or any other applicable Governmental Authority. Any Disposition that results in the transfer of any rights to use the spectrum encompassed by any Third-Party Lease Agreement shall require the consent of the Third-Party Lease Counterparty thereunder to the extent required therein, after giving effect to the Third-Party Lease Consent/Assignments. Each Securitization Entity agrees to take any lawful action that may be necessary or desirable which the Back-Up Manager or the Trustee may reasonably request in order to obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Secured Parties by the Transaction Documents, including specifically, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or after the occurrence of a Lessee Payment Default Rapid Am Event,

the use of such Securitization Entity’s best efforts to assist in obtaining any approval of the FCC and any other Governmental Authority that is then required under the Communications Laws or under any other applicable Requirements of Law and any required consents under the Third-Party Lease Agreements after giving effect to the Third-Party Lease Consent/Assignments for any action or transaction contemplated by any Transaction Document, including the sale or other transfer or disposition of Collateral pursuant to the Spectrum Realization Procedures or otherwise following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Such efforts shall include, to the extent permitted by the Communications Laws, sharing with the Back-Up Manager and the Trustee any FCC registration numbers, account numbers and passwords for the FCC’s electronic filing system, and preparing, certifying and filing (or causing to be prepared, certified and filed) with the FCC or any other applicable Governmental Authority any portion of any application or applications for approval of the assignment or other transfer of control of the Licenses, the Third-Party Lease Agreements or any Securitization Entity required to be filed under Communications Laws for approval of any sale or other transfer or disposition of any part of the Collateral.

inquiry or investigations as to, and shall not have any obligation in respect of, the validity or correctness of such procedures.

(v) The Trustee shall be afforded, in each Transaction Document, all of the rights, powers, immunities and indemnities granted to it in this Base Indenture as if such rights, powers, immunities and indemnities were specifically set out in each such Transaction Document.

(w) Receipt by the Trustee of any report or other information received by, or otherwise made available to the Trustee pursuant to the terms of this Base Indenture or any other Transaction Document, or information otherwise publically available (other than any information or notice received by the Trustee to notify the Trustee of the occurrence of any event) shall not be deemed to constitute either actual or constructive knowledge by the Trustee of such information.

(x) The Trustee makes no representations as to the value or condition of the Collateral or any part thereof, or as to the title of the Issuers thereto or as to the security afforded by this Base Indenture, any Transaction Document or any other agreement related thereto or as to the validity, execution, enforceability, legality or sufficiency of this Base Indenture, any Transaction Document or of any Lien secured hereby, and the Trustee shall incur no liability or responsibility in respect of any such matters. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall not have any duty or responsibility in respect of any recording, filing, or depositing of this Base Indenture, any Transaction Document or any other agreement or instrument, monitoring or filing any financing statement or continuation statement to evidence a security interest, the maintenance of any such recording, filing or depositing or any re-recording, re-filing or re-depositing of any thereof, or otherwise monitoring the perfection, continuation or perfection or the sufficiency or validity of any security interest related hereto (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement). The Trustee shall be authorized to, but shall in no event have any duty or responsibility to, (i) file any financing or continuation statements or record any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfect or maintain any security interest related hereto or (ii) request any Guarantor to take or omit to take any action pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

(y) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority or governmental action (it being understood that the Trustee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances).

Section 10.3 Individual Rights of the Trustee.

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may not become the owner or pledgee of Notes.

Section 10.4 Notice of Events of Default and Defaults.

If an Event of Default, a Default, a Rapid Amortization Event or a Potential Rapid Amortization Event occurs and is continuing and is actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, or written notice of the existence thereof has been received by a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall promptly provide the Noteholders, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Issuers and each Rating Agency for each Series of Notes Outstanding with notice of such Event of Default, Default, Rapid Amortization Event or Potential Rapid Amortization Event, to the extent that the Notes of such Series are Book-Entry Notes, by first class mail.

Section 10.5 Compensation and Indemnity.

(a) The Issuers shall jointly and severally promptly pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its acceptance of the Indenture and services hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which the Trustee is a party as the Trustee and the Issuers shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuers shall jointly and severally further pay or reimburse the Trustee for its reasonable and documented disbursements and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture or any other Transaction Documents which amounts shall constitute Securitization Operating Expenses payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments (it being understood that following an Event of Default or Rapid Amortization Event, such amounts shall be payable pursuant to clause (ii) of the Priority of Payments). Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and outside counsel and all persons not regularly in its employ. The Issuers shall not be required to reimburse any expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or negligence, as determined in a final, non-appealable order from a court of competent jurisdiction. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default or Rapid Amortization Event occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) The Issuers shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees from and against any loss, liability, claim, expense (including taxes, other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee), damage or injury suffered or sustained by reason of any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of or in connection with (i) the Trustee’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby and the activities of the Trustee pursuant to this Base Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Documents to which the Trustee is a party and (ii) the security interest granted hereby, whether arising by virtue of any act or omission on the part of the Issuers, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager, the Manager or otherwise, including any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding, claim (whether asserted by the Issuers, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party, the Manager or any Noteholder or any other Person), liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder or under any Transaction Document, the preservation of any of its rights to, or the realization upon, any of the Collateral, or in connection with enforcing the provisions of this Section 10.5(b); provided that the Issuers shall not indemnify the Trustee or its directors, officers, employees or agents if such acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions constitute willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence by the Trustee, as determined in a final, non-appealable order from a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) The provisions of this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of the Indenture and the resignation and removal of the Trustee.

Section 10.6 Replacement of the Trustee.

(a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 10.6.

(b) The Trustee may, after giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Issuers, the Noteholders, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Controlling Class Representative and each Rating Agency for each Series of Notes Outstanding, resign at any time from its office and be discharged from the trust hereby created; provided that no such resignation of the Trustee shall be effective until a successor trustee has assumed the obligations of the Trustee hereunder. Subject to the appointment of a successor Trustee, the Control Party or the Issuers may remove the Trustee, or any Noteholder may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee, if at any time:

(i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 10.8;

(ii) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting;

(iii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under the Bankruptcy Code; or

(iv) the Trustee fails generally to pay its debts as such debts become due.

provided that, if the Trustee fails to comply with the terms set forth in Section 10.8 as a result of its failure to satisfy the Trustee Rating Requirement, the Trustee shall be promptly removed following the Issuers receipt of notice of such failure, and a successor Trustee shall be appointed within thirty (30) days of such removal in accordance with the terms hereof (provided that the Trustee subject to removal shall remain in its capacity as Trustee until such successor has been appointed, in accordance with the terms hereof). If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Trustee for any reason, upon receiving notice the Issuers shall promptly, with the prior written consent of the Control Party, appoint a successor Trustee. Within one (1) year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Majority of Noteholders of the Controlling Class (with the prior written consent of the Control Party) may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuers.

(c) If a successor Trustee is not appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee is not delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, at the direction of the Control Party, the retiring Trustee, at the expense of the Issuers, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(d) If the Trustee after written request by the Manager, the Back-Up Manager or any Noteholder fails to comply with Section 10.8, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager or such Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(e) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee or removed Trustee and to the Back-Up Manager and the Issuers. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Base Indenture, any Series Supplement and any other Transaction Document to which the Trustee is a party. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Noteholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided that all sums owing to the retiring Trustee hereunder have been

paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 10.6, the Issuers’ obligations under Section 10.5 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

(f) No successor Trustee may accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor is qualified and eligible under this Base Indenture and a Rating Agency Notification has been provided and the Control Party has provided its consent with respect to such appointment, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed.

Section 10.7 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.

Subject to Section 10.8, if the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any party hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effectuate succession; provided that written notice of such consolidation, merger or conversion shall be provided to the Issuers, the Back-Up Manager and the Noteholders; provided further that the resulting or successor corporation is eligible to be a Trustee under Section 10.8.

Section 10.8 Eligibility Disqualification.

(a) There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall (i) be a bank or trust company organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, (ii) be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, (iii) have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition, (iv) be reasonably acceptable to the Back-Up Manager and (v) have a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least “BBB” by Fitch and “A3” by Moody’s (the “Trustee Rating Requirement”).

(b) At any time the Trustee shall cease to satisfy the eligibility requirements of Section 10.8(a), the Trustee shall notify the Issuers, the Manager, the LC Administrative Agent and the Control Party (who shall notify the Controlling Class Representative), and shall resign after written request that it do so by the Issuers or by the Control Party at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative, in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.6 (provided that the Trustee shall resign promptly following any failure by it to satisfy the Trustee Rating Requirement).

Section 10.9 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Base Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, the Trustee shall have the power upon notice to the Control Party and the Issuers and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Collateral, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders and the other Secured Parties, such title to the Collateral, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 10.9, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. Any co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 10.8 or shall be otherwise acceptable to the Back-Up Manager. No notice to Noteholders of the

appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 10.6. No co-trustee shall be appointed without the consent of the Back-Up Manager and the Issuers unless such appointment is required as a matter of state law or to enable the Trustee to perform its functions hereunder.

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

(i) the Notes of each Series shall be authenticated and delivered solely by the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee;

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

(iii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such trustee or co-trustee as an agent of the Trustee; and

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

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Base Indenture and the conditions of this Article X. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Base Indenture, any Series Supplement and any other Transaction Documents to which the Trustee is a party, specifically including every provision of this Base Indenture, any Series Supplement, or any other Transaction Document which the Trustee is a party relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Back-Up Manager and the Issuers.

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

Section 10.10 Representations and Warranties of Trustee.

ARTICLE XI

CONTROLLING CLASS REPRESENTATIVE AND CONTROL PARTY

Section 11.1 Controlling Class Representative.

(a) On the Closing Date and until a Controlling Class Representative shall have been elected pursuant to the terms set forth in this Article XI, (i) the Back-Up Manager in its capacity as Control Party, is authorized (in accordance with the Back-Up Management Standard) to implement any CCR Consent Request and to take any action in respect of any matter that is required to be approved or rejected by the Control Party alone, in accordance with Section 11.4, and (ii) any deliverable or notice that is required to be provided to the Controlling Class Representative under a Transaction Document shall be delivered to the Control Party. In respect of Consent Requests that require the consent of the Noteholders or any applicable majority of Noteholders (including any Majority Controlling Class Event), the Trustee shall obtain the requisite consent therefrom in accordance with the terms set forth in the Back-Up Management Agreement, in accordance with Section 11.4. On the Closing Date, the initial purchasers of the Notes will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Trustee with the Initial Controlling Class Member List. Within five (5) Business Days following the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto, through the Applicable Procedures of the Clearing Agency for the related Series and posted to the Trustee’s internet website at https://tss.sfs.db.com/investpublic/, announcing that there will be an election of a Controlling Class Representative and offering Controlling Class Members the opportunity to provide the Trustee with their contact information in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the date of such notice should they wish to participate in the election (such election, the “Initial CCR Election”). The Trustee shall provide any contact information that it receives, and any contact information set forth in the Initial Controlling Class Member List, to the Manager and the Issuers upon request. During the Initial CCR Election, any notices and communications required to be sent by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 11.1 shall be sent directly to the Controlling Class Members solely at the mail and e-mail addresses provided to the Trustee in the Initial Controlling Class Member List and by each Controlling Class Member individually, and all communications delivered to the Trustee by any Controlling Class Member shall be sent directly by such Controlling Class Member (and not through the Applicable Procedures of the Clearing Agency). The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any communications from Controlling Class Members received from email addresses specifically set forth on the Initial Controlling

Class Member List. To the extent the Trustee receives communications from individuals not listed on the Initial Controlling Class Member List, even if from the same institutions, the Trustee shall not consider such communication a valid communication. During any subsequent CCR Election or any communications with respect thereto, both the Trustee and the Controlling Class Members shall be entitled to rely on the Applicable Procedures of the Clearing Agency for all such notices and communications.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date or any CCR Re-election Event, the Trustee will send to each of the Controlling Class Members for which it has obtained contact information a written notice (with copies to the Manager and the Issuers) substantially in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto, announcing an election and soliciting nominations for a Controlling Class Representative (a “CCR Election Notice”). Each Controlling Class Member will be allowed to nominate one CCR Candidate by submitting a nomination to the Trustee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit F hereto (a “CCR Nomination”) within either (i) in the case of the Initial CCR Election, ten (10) Business Days of the date of the CCR Election Notice, or (ii) in the case of any subsequent election, thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the CCR Election Notice (such period, as applicable, the “CCR Nomination Period”). Each Controlling Class Member submitting a CCR Nomination shall represent that (i) as of (A) for the Initial CCR Election, the Closing Date or (B) in the case of any subsequent election, a date not more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the CCR Election Notice as determined by the Trustee (either such date, the “Nomination Record Date”) it was the Note Owner or Noteholder, as applicable, of the Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class specified by it in the CCR Nomination; and (ii) the CCR Candidate that it has nominated pursuant to such CCR Nomination is a Controlling Class Member.

(c) Based upon the CCR Nominations that are received by the Trustee, within three (3) Business Days following the end of the CCR Nomination Period, the Trustee shall either (i) notify the Manager, the Issuers, the Back-Up Manager and the Controlling Class Members that no nominations have been received and that the election will not be held, or (ii) prepare and send to each applicable Controlling Class Member a ballot in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto (the “CCR Ballot”) naming the top three candidates based upon the highest Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of Controlling Class Members nominating such candidate (or, if fewer than three (3) candidates are nominated, the CCR Ballot will list all candidates). Each Controlling Class Member shall, in its sole discretion, indicate its vote for Controlling Class Representative by returning a completed CCR Ballot directly to the Trustee within (i) in the case of the Initial CCR Election, ten (10) Business Days of the date of the CCR Ballot or (ii) in the case of any subsequent election, thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the CCR Ballot (a “CCR Election Period”). Each Controlling Class Member returning a completed CCR Ballot will also be required to confirm that, as of the date of the CCR Ballot (the “CCR Voting Record Date”), such Controlling Class Member was the owner or beneficial owner of the Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class specified by such Controlling Class Member in the CCR Ballot.

(d) If a CCR Candidate receives votes from Controlling Class Members owning or beneficially owning at least 50% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class (or any beneficial interest therein) that are Outstanding as of the CCR Voting Record Date and with respect to which votes were submitted (which may be less than the Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class as of the CCR Voting Record Date), such CCR Candidate shall be the Controlling Class Representative. Notes of the Controlling Class actually known to the Trustee to be held by the Issuers or any Affiliate of the Issuers, or held by the Back-Up Manager or any Affiliate of the Back-Up Manager, will not be considered Outstanding for such voting purposes. If two CCR Candidates both receive votes from Controlling Class Members holding beneficial interests in exactly 50% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class, the Controlling Class Representative shall be the CCR Candidate chosen by the Manager, pursuant to the Management Agreement. In the event that no CCR Candidate receives 50% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class with respect to which votes were submitted, the Trustee will

notify the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Back-Up Manager, the Rating Agencies and the Controlling Class Members that no Controlling Class Representative will be appointed, and until a CCR Re-election Event occurs and a new Controlling Class Representative is elected (i) the Control Party shall exercise the rights of the Controlling Class Representative in accordance with the Back-Up Management Standard and (ii) any deliverable or notice that is required to be provided to the Controlling Class Representative under a Transaction Document shall be delivered to the Control Party.

(e) In the event that a Controlling Class Representative is elected or chosen pursuant to Section 11.1(d), the Trustee shall forward an acceptance letter in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto (a “CCR Acceptance Letter”) to such Controlling Class Representative. No Person shall be appointed Controlling Class Representative unless it executes such CCR Acceptance Letter, pursuant to which it shall (i) agree to act as the Controlling Class Representative, (ii) provide its name and contact information and permit such information to be shared with the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Back-Up Manager, the Rating Agencies and the Controlling Class Members and (iii) represent and warrant that it is a Controlling Class Member and shall notify the Trustee in writing promptly if it ceases to be a Note Owner.. Within two (2) Business Days of receipt of the acceptance letter, the Trustee shall promptly forward copies thereof, or provide notice of the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Representative, to the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Back-Up Manager, the Rating Agencies and the Controlling Class Members.

(f) Within two (2) Business Days of any other change in the name or address of the Controlling Class Representative of which the Trustee has received notice from the Controlling Class Representative or from a Majority of Controlling Class Members, as applicable, the Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder, the Issuers, the Manager and the Back-Up Manager a notice setting forth the name and address of the new Controlling Class Representative.

(g) The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on, and will be fully protected in all actions taken or not taken by it with respect to, (i) the Initial Controlling Class Member List for purposes of identifying the recipients of the CCR Election Notices and CCR Ballots and all subsequent communications related to the Initial CCR Election, (ii) any subsequent election of a Controlling Class Representative, the Applicable Procedures of the Clearing Agency for delivery of the CCR Election Notices and CCR Ballots to Note Owners of Notes of the Controlling Class and (iii) the representations and warranties of the Persons submitting CCR Nominations, CCR Ballots and CCR Acceptance Letters.

(h) The Back-Up Manager (in its capacity as Back-Up Manager and Control Party) shall be entitled to rely on the identity of the Controlling Class Representative provided by the Trustee with respect to any obligation or right hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents that the Back-Up Manager (in its capacity as Back-Up Manager and Control Party) may have to deliver information or otherwise communicate with the Controlling Class Representative or any of the Noteholders of the Controlling Class, with no liability to it for such reliance.

(i) The Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to receive from the Trustee, upon request, any Consent Recommendation delivered to the Trustee by the Back-Up Manager pursuant to the Back-Up Management Agreement; provided that it shall have first executed a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Manager, and such confidentiality agreement remains in effect. Any such Consent Recommendation shall be deemed to contain confidential information.

Section 11.2 Resignation or Removal of the Controlling Class Representative. The Controlling Class Representative may at any time resign as such by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager and to each Noteholder of the Controlling Class. As of any Record Date, a

Majority of Controlling Class Members shall be entitled to remove any existing Controlling Class Representative by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager and such existing Controlling Class Representative. No resignation or removal of the Controlling Class Representative shall be effective until a successor Controlling Class Representative has been appointed pursuant to Section 11.1 or until the end of the CCR Election Period following such resignation or removal; provided that any Controlling Class Representative that has been removed pursuant to this Section 11.2 may subsequently be nominated as a CCR Candidate and appointed as Controlling Class Representative pursuant to Section 11.1; provided, further, that an existing Controlling Class Representative shall cease to be the Controlling Class Representative at the end of a CCR Election Period, even if no successor is re-elected pursuant to Section 11.1, unless such Controlling Class Representative is elected during such CCR Election Period. In addition to the foregoing, within two (2) Business Days of the selection, resignation or removal of the Controlling Class Representative, the Trustee shall notify the Back-Up Manager and the parties to this Base Indenture of such event.

Section 11.3 Expenses and Liabilities of the Controlling Class Representative.

(a) The Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability to the Noteholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, in good faith pursuant to the Indenture or for errors in judgment; provided that the Controlling Class Representative shall not be protected against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations or duties under the Indenture. Each Note Owner and Noteholder is deemed to acknowledge and agree, by its acceptance of its Notes or interests therein, that (i) the Controlling Class Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Note Owners or Noteholders of one or more Classes of Notes, or that conflict with other Note Owners or Noteholders, (ii) the Controlling Class Representative may act solely in the interests of the Controlling Class Members or in its own interest, (iii) the Controlling Class Representative does not have any duties to Note Owners or Noteholders other than the Controlling Class Members, (iv) the Controlling Class Representative may take actions that favor the interests of the Controlling Class Members over the interests of Note Owners or Noteholders of one or more other Classes of Notes, or that favor its own interests over those of other Note Owners or Noteholders or other Controlling Class Members, (v) the Controlling Class Representative shall not be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Controlling Class Members or in its own interests, and (vi) the Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted pursuant to clauses (i) through (v), and no Note Owner or Noteholder may take any action whatsoever against the Controlling Class Representative for having so acted or against any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

(b) Any and all expenses of the Controlling Class Representative for acting in its capacity as Controlling Class Representative shall be borne by the Controlling Class Members, pro rata according to their respective Outstanding Principal Amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a claim is made against the Controlling Class Representative and the Back-Up Manager or the Trustee are also named parties to the same action and, in the sole judgment of the Back-Up Manager, the Controlling Class Representative had acted in good faith, without gross negligence or willful misconduct, with regard to the particular matter at issue, and there is no potential for the Back-Up Manager or the Trustee to be an adverse party in such action as regards the Controlling Class Representative, the Back-Up Manager shall be required to assume the defense (with any costs incurred in connection therewith being deemed to be reimbursable as a Collateral Protection Advance) of any such claim against the Controlling Class Representative.

Section 11.4 Control Party.

(a) Control Party Consent Requests. Pursuant to the Back-Up Management Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Control Party is authorized to consent to and implement, subject to the Back-Up Management Standard, any Consent Request that does not require the consent of any Noteholder, including the Controlling Class Representative.

(b) Controlling Class Representative Consent Requests. Subject to the terms of this Base Indenture, the Controlling Class Representative will be entitled to instruct the Control Party with respect to the approval of any Consent Request that expressly requires, pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents, the consent or direction of the Controlling Class Representative (each, a “CCR Consent Request”) and will be authorized to approve CCR Consent Requests. For any CCR Consent Request the Control Party shall evaluate such CCR Consent Request and shall formulate and present a written Consent Recommendation and promptly deliver such CCR Consent Request and a Consent Recommendation to the Trustee (upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely) to forward to the Controlling Class Representative (if a Controlling Class Representative exists at such time). The Control Party is not authorized to implement any CCR Consent Request until the Control Party receives the consent or direction of the Controlling Class Representative; provided that (i) the Control Party shall work in good faith with the Controlling Class Representative to obtain such consent and (ii) if the Controlling Class Representative fails to approve or reject a CCR Consent Request within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such CCR Consent Request and the related Consent Recommendation (the “Specified Consent Period”), the Control Party shall approve or reject and, if approved, be authorized to implement the CCR Consent Request in accordance with the Back-Up Management Standard, whether or not the Indenture indicates that the Control Party is required to act with the consent or at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative with respect to any specific matter relating to such CCR Consent Request.

(c) CCR Consent Requests in the Absence of a Controlling Class Representative. If at any time there is no Controlling Class Representative (including prior to the initial CCR Election Period and during any CCR Election Period), the Control Party may exercise the rights of the Controlling Class Representative and shall approve or reject and, if applicable, implement such CCR Consent Request in accordance with the Back-Up Management Standard.

(d) Noteholder and Majority Controlling Class Consent Requests. For any Consent Requests that expressly require the consent of all Noteholders or any applicable majority of Noteholders (including any Majority Controlling Class Event), the Control Party shall evaluate such Consent Request and shall formulate and present a Consent Recommendation to the Trustee which shall forward such Consent Request and the Consent Recommendation to each Noteholder or each affected Noteholder, as applicable. Until the consent of each Noteholder (or the applicable majority of Noteholders) that is required to consent to any such Consent Request has been obtained and the Control Party is provided with notice of such consents being obtained by the Trustee, the Control Party is not authorized to implement such Consent Request. The Back-Up Manager as Control Party, will have the right to consult with the Controlling Class Representative with respect to any Consent Requests and Consent Recommendations and any other proposed course of action under any Transaction Document.

(e) The Control Party shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Manager, the Issuers and the Controlling Class Representative if the Control Party determines, in accordance with the Back-Up Management Standard, not to implement a Consent Request or has not received the requisite consent of the Controlling Class Representative or the Noteholders, if applicable, to implement a Consent Request. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Control Party, the Manager, the Issuers and the Controlling

Class Representative if the Trustee has not received the requisite consent of the required percentage of Noteholders to implement a Consent Request.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no advice, direction or objection from or by any Noteholder, the Controlling Class Representative or any LC Provider may (i) require or cause the Trustee or the Control Party to violate applicable law (including the Communications Laws), the terms of this Indenture, the Notes, the Back-Up Management Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, including, with respect to the Control Party, the Control Party’s obligation to act in accordance with the Back-Up Management Standard, (ii) expose the Control Party or the Trustee, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, members, managers, employees, agents or partners, to any material claim, suit or liability, or (iii) materially expand the scope of the Control Party’s or Back-Up Manager’s responsibilities under the Back-Up Management Agreement or the Trustee’s responsibilities under this Indenture, the Notes and other Transaction Documents. The Trustee and the Control Party shall not be required to follow any such advice, direction or objection.

Section 11.5 Note Owner List.

(a) Noteholders may communicate with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under the Indenture or the Notes. To facilitate communication among Note Owners, the Manager, the Trustee, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative, a Note Owner may elect, but is not required, to notify the Trustee of its name, address and other contact information, which will be kept in a register maintained by the Trustee. The Trustee will be required to furnish the Manager, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative upon request with the information maintained in such register as of the most recent date of determination. Every Note Owner, by receiving and holding a beneficial interest in a Note, will agree that none of the Trustee, the Issuers, the Back-Up Manager, the Controlling Class Representative or any of their respective agents will be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Note Owners in the register maintained by the Trustee.

(b) Note Owners having beneficial interests of not less than $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes that wish to communicate with the other Note Owners with respect to their rights under the Indenture or under the Notes may request in writing that the Trustee deliver a notice or communication to the other Note Owners through the Applicable Procedures of each Clearing Agency with respect to all Series of Notes Outstanding. If such request states that such Note Owners desire to communicate with other Note Owners with respect to their rights under the Indenture or under the Notes and is accompanied by (i) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I certifying that such Note Owners hold beneficial interests of not less than $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes (each, a “Note Owner Certificate”) (upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely) and (ii) a copy of the communication which such Note Owners propose to transmit, then the Trustee, after having been adequately indemnified by such Note Owners for its costs and expenses, shall transmit the requested communication to all other Note Owners through the Applicable Procedures of each Clearing Agency with respect to all Series of Notes Outstanding, and shall give the Issuers, the Back-Up Manager and the Controlling Class Representative notice that such request has been made, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the request. The Trustee shall have no obligation of any nature whatsoever with respect to any requested communication other than to transmit it in accordance with and subject to the terms hereof and to give notice of such request and transmission to the Issuers, the Back-Up Manager and the Controlling Class Representative.

(iii) after giving effect to the deposit, if any other Series of Notes is Outstanding, the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuers stating that no Potential Rapid Amortization Event, Rapid Amortization Event, Default or Event of Default has occurred and will be continuing;

(iv) the Issuers deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the defeasance was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the holders of the Defeased Series over other creditors of the Issuers or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding other creditors;

(v) the Issuers deliver notice of such deposit to the Control Party, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the LC Administrative Agent and the Rating Agencies on or before the date of the deposit;

(a) Except as provided in Section 13.1, the provisions of this Base Indenture, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, any Supplement and any other Indenture Document to which the Trustee is a party may from time to time be amended, modified or waived, if such amendment, modification or waiver is in writing in a Supplement with the written consent of the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative).

The Issuers shall provide written notice to each Rating Agency of any amendment or modification to the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement no less than five (5) days prior to the effectiveness of the related Supplement; provided that such Supplement or amendment, as applicable, need not be in final form at the time such notice is given. The initial effectiveness of each Supplement or amendment, as applicable, shall be subject to the delivery to the Manager, the Back-Up Manager and the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel that such Supplement is authorized or permitted by this Base Indenture or the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, and the

conditions precedent set forth herein and therein with respect thereto have been satisfied. Any Series Supplement may be amended in accordance with the manner provided in Sections 13.1 and 13.2 and subject to additional requirements as set forth in such Series Supplement.

Section 13.4 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Noteholder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Noteholder and every subsequent Noteholder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Noteholder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. Any such Noteholder or subsequent Noteholder, however, may revoke the consent as to his Note or portion of a Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Noteholder. The Issuers may fix a record date for determining which Noteholders must consent to such amendment or waiver.

Section 13.5 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuers, in exchange for all Notes, may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment or waiver.

Section 13.6 The Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any Supplement authorized pursuant to this Article XIII if the Supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities, immunities or indemnities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing such Supplement, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, if requested, an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuers and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that such Supplement is authorized or permitted by this Base Indenture and the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, and that all conditions precedent have been satisfied, and that it will be valid and binding upon the Issuers and the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

Section 13.7 Amendments and Fees.

The Issuers, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative shall negotiate any amendments, waivers or modifications to the Indenture or the other Transaction Documents that require the consent of the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative in good faith, and any consent required to be given by the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative shall not be unreasonably denied or delayed. The Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Issuers only for the reasonable counsel fees incurred by the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative in reviewing and approving any amendment or in providing any consents, and except as provided in the Back-Up Management Agreement, neither the Control Party nor the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to any additional compensation in connection with any amendments or consents to this Base Indenture or to any Transaction Document.
