Page 29

(b) For each Monthly Period and as of any date of determination, the Scheduled Distribution on any item of Collateral (other than a Defaulted Obligation, which shall be assumed to have a Scheduled Distribution of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of payments and collections to be received during such Monthly Period in respect of such item of Collateral (including the proceeds of the sale of such Collateral received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to be received during the Monthly Period and not reinvested in additional Portfolio Assets or Eligible Investments or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 12.2(b)) that, if received as scheduled, will be available in the Collection Account at the end of the Monthly Period and (ii) any such amounts received in prior Monthly Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Payment Date.

The terms and conditions of any sale under this Section 2.11(b) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrars or the Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates shall be liable to any Person having an interest in the Notes sold as a result of any such sale or the exercise of such discretion.

(c) Any transfer of a beneficial interest in a Note to a Person who is a Benefit Plan Investor or acting on behalf of or using the assets of any Benefit Plan Investor to acquire such Note (any such Person, aNon-Permitted ERISA Holder) shall be null and void and any such purported transfer of which the Issuer or the Trustee shall have notice may be disregarded by the Issuer, the Trustee and the Note Registrars for all purposes.

(d) If any Non-Permitted ERISA Holder shall become the beneficial owner of an interest in any Note, the Issuer shall, promptly after discovery that such Person is a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder by the Issuer or upon notice from the Trustee (if a Trust Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge), if the Trustee makes the discovery and who agrees to notify the Issuer of such discovery, send notice to such Non-Permitted ERISA Holder demanding that such Non-Permitted ERISA Holder transfer all or any portion of the Notes held by such Person to a Person that is not a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder (and that is otherwise eligible to hold such Notes or an interest therein) within 20 days after the date of such notice. If such Non-Permitted ERISA Holder fails to so transfer such Notes the Issuer or the Collateral Manager acting for the Issuer shall have the right, without further notice to the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder, to sell such Notes or interest in such Notes to a purchaser selected by the Issuer that is not a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder (and that is otherwise eligible to hold such Notes or an interest therein) on such terms as the Issuer may choose. The Issuer, or the Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer, may select the purchaser by soliciting one or more bids from one or more brokers or other market professionals that regularly deal in

Page 50

securities similar to the Notes and sell such Notes to the highest such bidder,provided that the Collateral Manager, its Affiliates and accounts, funds, clients or portfolios established and controlled by the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to bid in any such sale (to the extent any such entity is not a Non-Permitted ERISA Holder). However, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager may select a purchaser by any other means determined by it in its sole discretion. The Holder of each Note, the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder and each other Person in the chain of title from the Holder to the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the Notes agrees to cooperate with the Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the Trustee to effect such transfers. The proceeds of such sale, net of any commissions, expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale shall be remitted to the Non-Permitted ERISA Holder. The terms and conditions of any sale under this Section 2.11(d) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Issuer, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrars or the Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates shall be liable to any Person having an interest in the Notes sold as a result of any such sale or the exercise of such discretion.

2.12 Tax Certification and Noteholder Reporting Obligations

Page 62

respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Holders allowed in any Proceedings relative to the Issuer or the Sole Shareholder or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or the Sole Shareholder;

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holders, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holders, as applicable, in any such Proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Notes (and any such Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Collateral or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.3 except according to the provisions specified in Section 5.5(a).

(i) (A) the Trustee, pursuant to Section 5.5(c), determines that the anticipated proceeds of a sale or liquidation of the Collateral (after deducting the reasonable expenses of such sale or liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in full (1) the Outstanding Class A-R Funded Amount and any other amounts due and unpaid in respect of the Class A-R Notes, (2) the amounts then due (or, in the case of interest, accrued) and unpaid on the Class A Notes for principal and interest, and in the case of clauses (1) and (2), all other amounts that, pursuant to the Priority of Payments, are required to be paid prior to such payments on such Notes (including amounts due and owing as Administrative Expenses); and (B) the Majority Noteholders agree with such determination; or

(ii) the Majority Noteholders direct the sale and liquidation of the Collateral.

The Trustee shall give written notice of the retention of the Collateral to the Issuer with a copy to the Collateral Manager and to the Revolving Credit Note Agent. So long as such Event of Default is continuing, any such retention pursuant to this Section 5.5(a) may be rescinded at any time when the conditions specified in clause (i) or (ii) exist.

(b) Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to sell the Collateral securing the Notes if the conditions set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 5.5(a) are not satisfied. Nothing contained in Section 5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to preserve the Collateral securing the Notes if prohibited by applicable law.

(c) In determining whether the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the Trustee shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of the Current Price of each Portfolio Asset. In addition, for the purposes of determining issues relating to the execution of a sale or liquidation of the Collateral and the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof in connection

Page 66

The Trustee shall make the determinations required by Section 5.5(a)(i) within 30 days after an Event of Default and at the request of the Majority Noteholders at any time during which the Trustee retains the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i).

(d) This Section 5.5 shall in all respects be subject to the application of Section 12.1(c).

5.6 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes

Upon the final distribution of all proceeds of any liquidation effected hereunder, the provisions of Section 4.1(b) shall be deemed satisfied for the purposes of discharging this Indenture pursuant to Article 4.

5.8 Limitation on Suits

No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

Page 67

(b) the Majority Noteholders shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder and such Holder or Holders have provided the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(c) the Trustee, for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and provision of such indemnity, has failed to institute any such Proceeding; and

(d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 30-day period by the Majority Noteholders; it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders subject to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

5.9 Unconditional Rights of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest

Subject to Section 2.7(g), but notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note, as such principal, interest and other amounts become due and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments, as the case may be, and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.8, to institute proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

5.10 Restoration of Rights and Remedies

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holder 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 and the Holder shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

5.11 Rights and Remedies Cumulative

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

Page 68

5.12 Delay or Omission Not Waiver

No delay or omission of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein or of a subsequent Event of Default. Every right and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of the Notes.

5.13 Control by Majority Noteholders

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Majority Noteholders shall have the right following the occurrence, and during the continuance of, an Event of Default to cause the institution of and direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee;provided that:

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction;provided that subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability (unless the Trustee has received the indemnity as set forth in sub-Section (c) below);

(c) the Trustee shall have been provided with indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it; and

(d) notwithstanding the foregoing, any direction to the Trustee to undertake a Sale of the Collateral must satisfy the requirements of Section 5.5.

5.14 Waiver of Past Defaults

Prior to the time a judgment or decree for payment of the Cash due has been obtained by the Trustee, as provided in this Article 5, Holders of the Notes may waive any past Event of Default or any occurrence that is, or with notice or the lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default and its consequences;provided that any such Event of Default or occurrence in respect of a covenant or provision hereof cannot be modified or amended without the waiver or consent of each Holder.

In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto. The Trustee shall promptly give written notice of any such waiver to the Collateral Manager, the Revolving Credit Note Agent and each Holder.

Page 69

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 this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

5.15 Undertaking for Costs

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.15 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the applicable Stated Maturity.

5.16 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws

The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any valuation, appraisement, redemption or marshalling law or rights, in each case wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants, the performance of or any remedies under this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law or rights, and covenant that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted or rights created.

5.17 Sale of Collateral

(a) The power to effect any sale or other disposition (aSale) of any portion of the Collateral pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 5.5 shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of such Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Collateral shall have been sold or all amounts secured by the Collateral shall have been paid. The Trustee may upon notice to the Holders, and shall, upon direction of the Majority Noteholders, from time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale. The Trustee hereby expressly waives its rights to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale;provided that the Trustee shall be authorized to deduct the reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by it in connection with such Sale from the proceeds thereof notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7.

Page 70

(b) The Trustee, the Collateral Manager or any of the Collateral Manager’s Affiliates may bid for and acquire any portion of the Collateral in connection with a public Sale thereof, and may pay all or part of the purchase price by crediting against amounts owing on the Notes in the case of the Collateral or other amounts secured by the Collateral, all or part of the net proceeds of such Sale after deducting the reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Manager or an Affiliate of the Collateral Manager, as the case may be, in connection with such Sale notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof. The Notes need not be produced in order to complete any such Sale, or in order for the net proceeds of such Sale to be credited against amounts owing on the Notes. The Trustee and the Collateral Manager may hold, lease, operate, manage or otherwise deal with any property so acquired in any manner permitted by law in accordance with this Indenture and the Collateral Management Agreement, respectively.

(c) If any portion of the Collateral consists of securities issued without registration under the Securities Act (Unregistered Securities), the Trustee may seek an Opinion of Counsel, or, if no such Opinion of Counsel can be obtained and with the consent of the Majority Noteholders, seek a no action position from the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other relevant Federal or State regulatory authorities, regarding the legality of a public or private Sale of such Unregistered Securities.

(d) The Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof. In addition, the Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney in fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale. No purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s authority, to inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any Cash.

5.18 Action on the Notes

The Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral or upon any of the assets of the Issuer.

(d) The Issuer’s payment obligations to the Trustee under this Section 6.7 shall be secured by the lien of this Indenture, and shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.1(e), the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

If no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or any Holder, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.8.

(ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case (subject to Section 6.9(a)), (A) the Issuer, by Issuer Order, may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 5.15, any Holder 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 the Issuer shall fail to appoint a successor Trustee within 60 days after such resignation, removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee may be appointed by Holders of 100% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Notes by written instrument delivered to the Issuer and the retiring Trustee. The successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede any successor Trustee proposed by the Issuer. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Issuer or Holders of 100% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Notes and shall have accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, subject to Section��5.15, any Holder may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

6.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor

Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall meet the requirements of Section 6.8 and shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer and the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment. Upon delivery of the required instruments, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Issuer or the Majority Noteholders or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and Cash held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

6.11 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee

Any organization or entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any organization or entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any organization or entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,provided that such organization or entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article 6, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any of the Notes has been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.

6.12 Co-Trustees

At any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, the Issuer and the Trustee shall have power to appoint one or more Persons to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Trustee, of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to file such proofs of claim and take such other actions pursuant to Section 5.6 herein and to make such claims and enforce such rights of action on behalf of the Holders, as such Holders themselves may have the right to do, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.12.

The Issuer shall join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint a co-trustee. If the Issuer does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by them of a request to do so, the Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment.

Page 82

Should any written instrument from the Issuer be required by anyco-trustee so appointed, more fully confirming to such co-trustee such property, title, right or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. The Issuer agrees to pay as Administrative Expenses, to the extent funds are available therefor under the Priority of Payments, for any reasonable fees and expenses in connection with such appointment.

Every co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms:

(a) the Notes shall be authenticated and delivered, and all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of securities, Cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee hereunder, shall be exercised, solely by the Trustee;

(b) the rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect of any property covered by the appointment of a co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or by the Trustee and such co-trustee jointly as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee;

(c) the Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Issuer evidenced by an Issuer Order, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee appointed under this Section 6.12, and in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee without the concurrence of the Issuer. A successor to any co-trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 6.12;

(d) no co-trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee hereunder;

(e) the Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act or omission of a co-trustee; and

(f) any Act of Holders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each co-trustee.

6.13 Certain Duties of Trustee Related to Delayed Payment of Proceeds

In the event that the Collateral Administrator provides the Trustee with notice that a payment with respect to any item of Collateral has not been received on its Due Date, (a) the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Collateral Manager in writing and (b) unless within three Business Days (or the end of the applicable grace period for such payment, if any) after such notice (x) such payment shall have been received by the Trustee or (y) the Trustee has received notice from the Collateral Manager that it is taking action in respect of such payment, the Trustee shall request the issuer of or obligor

Page 83

on such item of Collateral, the trustee under the related Underlying Instrument or the paying agent designated by either of them, as the case may be, to make such payment as soon as practicable after such request but in no event later than three Business Days after the date of such request. In the event that such payment is not made within such time period, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of clause (iv) of Section 6.1(c), shall take such action as the Collateral Manager shall direct. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. In the event that the Issuer or the Collateral Manager requests a release of any Collateral and/or delivers an additional Portfolio Asset in connection with any such action under the Collateral Management Agreement, such release and/or substitution shall be subject to Section 10.6 and Article 12 of this Indenture, as the case may be. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Trustee shall deliver to the Issuer or its designee any payment with respect to any additional Portfolio Asset or other Collateral received after the Due Date thereof to the extent the Issuer previously made provisions for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with this Section 6.13 and such payment shall not be deemed part of the Collateral. The foregoing shall not preclude any other exercise of any right or remedy by the Issuer with respect to any default or event of default arising under a Portfolio Asset.

6.14 Authenticating Agents

Upon the request of the Issuer, the Trustee shall, and if the Trustee so chooses the Trustee may, appoint one or more Authenticating Agents with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 8.6, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by such Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 6.14 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes by the Trustee.

Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation.

Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and the Issuer. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment to the Issuer.

Page 84

Unless the Authenticating Agent is also the same entity as the Trustee, the Issuer agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services, and reimbursement for its reasonable expenses relating thereto as an Administrative Expense. The provisions of Sections 2.8, 6.4 and 6.5 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.

6.15 Withholding

All payments made to a Holder under this Indenture shall be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future Tax unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If any withholding Tax is imposed on the Issuer’s payment (or allocations of income) under the Notes by any such applicable law, such Tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the relevant Holder. The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to any Holder sufficient funds for the payment of any Tax that is legally owed or required to be withheld by the Issuer by law or pursuant to the Issuer’s agreement with a governmental authority (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee from contesting any such Tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment of such Tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings) and to timely remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. The amount of any withholding Tax imposed by law or pursuant to the Issuer’s agreement with a governmental authority with respect to any Note shall be treated as having been paid as interest or principal on such Note to the relevant Holder at the time such amounts are withheld by the Trustee. If there is a possibility that withholding Tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Paying Agent or the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 6.15. If any Holder or beneficial owner wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding Tax, the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Person in providing readily available information so long as such Person agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Nothing herein shall impose an obligation on the part of the Trustee to determine the amount of any Tax or withholding obligation on the part of the Issuer or in respect of the Notes.

6.16 Fiduciary for Holders Only; Agent for each other Secured Party

With respect to the security interest created hereunder, the delivery of any Collateral to the Trustee is to the Trustee as trustee for the Holders and agent for each other Secured Party. In furtherance of the foregoing, the possession by the Trustee of any Collateral, the endorsement to or registration in the name of the Trustee of any Collateral (including without limitation as entitlement holder of the Custodial Account) are all undertaken by the Trustee in its capacity as trustee for the Holders, and agent for each other Secured Party. The Trustee shall not by reason of this Indenture be deemed to be acting as fiduciary for the Collateral Manager, provided that the foregoing shall not limit any of the express obligations of the Trustee under this Indenture.

The Issuer will duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest on the Notes, in accordance with the terms of such Notes, the Revolving Credit Note Agreement and this Indenture pursuant to the Priority of Payments.

Amounts properly withheld under the Code or other applicable law or pursuant to the Issuer’s agreement with a governmental authority by any Person from a payment under a Note shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to the relevant Holder for all purposes of this Indenture.

Page 86

7.2 Maintenance of Office or Agency

The Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee as a Paying Agent for payments on the Notes and the Issuer hereby appoints the Trustee at its applicable Corporate Trust Office, as the Issuer’s agent where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer may at any time and from time to time appoint additional paying agents;provided that no paying agent shall be appointed in a jurisdiction which subjects payments on the Notes to withholding tax solely as a result of such Paying Agent’s activities. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain the appointment of a paying agent, or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, presentations and surrenders may be made (subject to the limitations described in the preceding sentence), and Notes may be presented and surrendered for payment, to the Trustee at its main office.

The Issuer irrevocably consents to service of process on the Issuer by registered or certified mail or hand delivery to the address for notices to the Issuer specified in Section 14.3. Nothing in this Indenture will affect the right of any party to this Indenture to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

The Issuer shall at all times maintain duplicate copies of the Note Registers at the Corporate Trust Office. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Holders of the appointment or termination of any such agent and of the location and any change in the location of any such office or agency.

7.3 Cash for Note Payments to be Held in Trust

All payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Payment Account shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Trustee or a Paying Agent.

When the Issuer shall have a Paying Agent that is not also a Note Registrar, it shall furnish, or cause the applicable Note Registrar to furnish, no later than the fifth calendar day after each Record Date a list, if necessary, in such form as such Paying Agent may reasonably request, of the names and addresses of the Holders and of the certificate numbers of individual Notes held by each such Holder.

Whenever the Issuer shall have a Paying Agent with respect to the Notes other than the Trustee, it shall, on or before the Business Day next preceding each Payment Date, direct the Trustee to deposit on such Payment Date with such Paying Agent, if necessary, an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due (to the extent funds are then available for such purpose in the Payment Account), such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. Any

Page 87

Cash deposited with a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) in excess of an amount sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due on the Notes with respect to which such deposit was made shall be paid over by such Paying Agent to the Trustee for application in accordance with Article 10.

The initial Paying Agent shall be as set forth in Section 7.2. Any additional or successor Paying Agents shall be appointed by Issuer Order with written notice thereof to the Trustee. The Issuer shall not appoint any Paying Agent that is not, at the time of such appointment, a depository institution or trust company subject to supervision and examination by Federal and/or State and/or national banking authorities. The Issuer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee and if the Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.3, that such Paying Agent will:

(a) allocate all sums received for payment to the Holders of Notes for which it acts as Paying Agent on each Payment Date among such Holders in the proportion specified in the applicable Payment Date Report to the extent permitted by applicable law;

(b) 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;

(c) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay 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 set forth above required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment;

(d) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, immediately give the Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment required to be made; and

(e) if such Paying Agent is not the Trustee, during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

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

Page 88

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, any Cash deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (with respect to Notes) in trust for any payment on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Order; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment of such amounts (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer) and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust Cash shall thereupon cease. The Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such release of payment, may, but shall not be required to, adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuer any reasonable means of notification of such release of payment, including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such release to Holders whose right to or interest in Cash due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record of each such Holder.

7.4 Existence of Issuer

(a) The Issuer shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, maintain in full force and effect its existence and rights as a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which such qualifications are or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, or any of the Collateral;provided that (x) the Issuer shall be entitled to change its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to any other jurisdiction reasonably selected by the Issuer so long as (i) the Issuer has received a legal opinion (upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely) to the effect that such change is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders, (ii) the Issuer has taken all necessary steps to ensure that Trustee’s security interest in the Collateral continues in effect and has received an Opinion of Counsel similar to closing date opinion given by counsel to the Issuer to the effect that, after giving effect to such change, Trustee has a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral and that the Issuer shall not be subject to any obligations for payment of Taxes that it would not have been subject to but for such change of jurisdiction, (iii) written notice of such change shall have been given by the Trustee to the Holders and the Collateral Manager, and (iv) on or prior to the 15th Business Day following receipt of such notice the Trustee shall not have received written notice from Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Notes objecting to such change and (y) the Issuer shall be entitled to take any action required by this Indenture within the United States notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture requiring the Issuer to take such action outside of the United States so long as prior to taking any such action the Issuer receives a legal opinion from nationally recognized legal counsel to the effect that it is not necessary to take such action outside of the United States or any political subdivision thereof in order to prevent the Issuer from becoming subject to United States federal, state or local income taxes on a net income basis or any material other taxes to which the Issuer would not otherwise be subject.

Page 89

(b) The Issuer shall ensure that all limited liability company or other formalities regarding its existence (including holding regular members’, managers’ or other similar meetings) are followed. The Issuer shall not take any action or conduct its affairs in a manner, that is likely to result in its separate existence being ignored (other than for U.S. Federal income tax purposes) or in its assets and liabilities being substantively consolidated with any other Person in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) the Issuer shall not have any subsidiaries, (ii) the Issuer shall not (A) have any employees, (B) engage in any transaction with any Person that would constitute a conflict of interest (providedthat its entering into and performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents shall not be deemed to be a transaction that would constitute a conflict of interest) or (C) pay distributions to its equity owners other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and its Constitutive Documents and (iii) the Issuer shall (A) maintain books and records separate from any other Person, (B) maintain its accounts separate from those of any other Person, (C) not commingle its assets with those of any other Person, (D) conduct its own business in its own name, (E) maintain separate financial statements, (F) pay its own liabilities out of its own funds, (G) maintain an arm’s length relationship with its Affiliates, (H) use separate stationery, invoices and checks, (I) hold itself out as a separate Person and (J) correct any known misunderstanding regarding its separate identity.

7.5 Protection of Collateral

(a) The Issuer will take such action as is necessary to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Trustee in the Collateral;provided that the Issuer shall be entitled to rely on any Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to Section 7.6 and any Opinion of Counsel with respect to the same subject matter delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(d) to determine what actions are necessary, and shall be fully protected in so relying on such an Opinion of Counsel, unless the Issuer has actual knowledge that the procedures described in any such Opinion of Counsel are no longer adequate to maintain such perfection and priority. The Issuer shall from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and file or authorize the filing of all such Financing Statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable or desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the Holders of the Notes hereunder and to:

(i) Grant more effectively all or any portion of the Collateral;

(ii) maintain, preserve and perfect any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture including, without limitation, the first priority nature of the lien or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

Page 90

(iv) enforce any of the Collateral or other instruments or property included in the Collateral;

(v) preserve and defend title to the Collateral and the rights therein of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes in the Collateral against the claims of all Persons and parties; or

(vi) pay or cause to be paid any and all taxes levied or assessed upon all or any part of the Collateral.

The Issuer hereby authorizes the Trustee to prepare and file any Financing Statement, continuation statement and all other instruments, and take all other actions, required pursuant to this Section 7.5. Such designation shall not impose upon the Trustee, or release or diminish, the Issuer’s obligations under this Section 7.5. The Issuer further authorizes, and shall cause the Issuer’s United States counsel to file, a Financing Statement that names the Issuer as debtor and the Trustee as secured party and that describes “all personal property of the Debtor now owned or hereafter acquired, other than ‘Excepted Property’” (and that defines Excepted Property in accordance with its definition herein) or words of similar effect as the Collateral in which the Trustee has a Grant.

(b) The Issuer shall enforce all of its material rights and remedies under each Transaction Document to which it is a party.

7.6 Opinions as to Collateral

On or before May 31 in each calendar year, commencing in 2014, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel relating to the security interest granted by the Issuer to the Trustee, stating that, as of the date of such opinion, the lien and security interests created by this Indenture with respect to the Collateral remain in effect and that no further action (other than as specified in such opinion) needs to be taken to ensure the continued effectiveness of such lien over the next year.

7.7 Performance of Obligations

(a) The Issuer shall not take any action that would release any Person from any of such Person’s covenants or obligations under any instrument included in the Collateral, except (i) in the case of enforcement action taken with respect to any Defaulted Obligation in accordance with the provisions hereof or (ii) actions by the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement and in conformity with this Indenture or as otherwise required hereby (including consenting to any amendment or modification to the documents governing any

Page 91

Portfolio Asset);provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to take any action following the release of any Obligor under any Portfolio Asset to the extent such release is completed pursuant to the Underlying Instruments related to such Portfolio Asset in accordance with their terms.

(b) The Issuer may, with the prior written consent of each Holder (except in the case of the Collateral Management Agreement and the Collateral Administration Agreement, in which case no consent shall be required), contract with other Persons, including the Collateral Manager, the Trustee and the Collateral Administrator for the performance of actions and obligations to be performed by the Issuer hereunder and under the Collateral Management Agreement by such Persons. Notwithstanding any such arrangement, the Issuer shall remain primarily liable with respect thereto. In the event of such contract, the performance of such actions and obligations by such Persons shall be deemed to be performance of such actions and obligations by the Issuer; and the Issuer will punctually perform, and use their best efforts to cause the Collateral Manager, the Trustee, the Collateral Administrator and such other Person to perform, all of their obligations and agreements contained in the Collateral Management Agreement, this Indenture, the Collateral Administration Agreement or any such other agreement.

7.8 Negative Covenants

Page 98

(b) With respect to any supplemental indenture permitted by Section 8.1, the Trustee and the Issuer shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (stating that the supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by the Indenture and all conditions precedent have been satisfied) as to matters of law (which does not include whether or not the Holders of any Class would be materially and adversely affected by a supplemental indenture), which may be supported as to factual (including financial and capital markets) matters by any relevant certificates and other documents necessary or advisable in the judgment of counsel delivering such Opinion of Counsel) or, with respect to matters of fact (including whether or not the Holders of any Class would be materially and adversely affected by a supplemental indenture), a certificate of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, any investment banking firm or other Independent expert familiar with the market for the Notes pursuant to Section 8.4;providedthat, for any supplemental indenture (other than any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to sub-clauses (iii) and (vi) of Section 8.1(a) for which the consent of the Holders of the Notes would not otherwise be required except as expressly set forth in such clauses) if Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Notes of any Class have provided notice to the Trustee at least one Business Day prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture that the Holders of such Class would be materially and adversely affected thereby, the Trustee shall not be entitled so to rely upon a certificate of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, any investment banking firm or other Independent expert as to whether or not the Holders of such Class would be materially and adversely affected by such supplemental indenture and the Trustee shall not enter into such supplemental indenture without the prior written consent of each Holder of such Class. Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders. In executing or accepting the additional trusts created by any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article 8 or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee and the Issuer shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.3) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions precedent thereto have been satisfied. Neither the Trustee nor the Issuer shall be liable for any reliance made in good faith upon such an Opinion of Counsel or a certificate of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, any investment banking firm or other Independent expert pursuant to Section 8.4.

At the cost of the Issuer, the Trustee shall provide to the Holders a copy of the executed supplemental indenture after its execution. Any failure of the Trustee to publish or deliver such copy of the executed supplemental indenture shall not in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

(d) It shall not be necessary for any consent or Act of any Holders of Notes to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient, if the consent of any such Holders to such proposed supplemental indenture is required, that such Act or consent shall approve the substance thereof.

(e) The Issuer agrees that it will not permit to become effective any supplement or modification to this Indenture which would (i) increase the duties or liabilities of, reduce or eliminate any right or privilege of (including as a result of an effect on the amount or priority of any fees or other amounts payable to the Collateral Manager), or adversely change the economic consequences to, the Collateral Manager, (ii) modify the restrictions on the Sales of Portfolio Assets or (iii) expand or restrict the Collateral Manager’s discretion, and the Collateral Manager shall not be bound thereby unless the Collateral Manager shall have consented in advance thereto in writing.

Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all present and future Holders.

(b) The Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated

Page 100

to enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

10. ACCOUNTS, ACCOUNTINGS AND RELEASES

10.1 Collection of Cash

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and shall receive and collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent or other intermediary, all Cash and other property payable to or receivable by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, including all payments due on the Collateral, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Collateral. The Trustee shall segregate and hold all such Cash and property received by it in trust for the Holders of the Notes and shall apply it as provided in this Indenture. Each Account shall be established and maintained with (a) a Federal or state-chartered depository institution rated (1) at least “A-1” by S&P (or at least “A+” by S&P if such institution has no short-term rating) and if such institution’s rating falls below “A-1” by S&P (or below “A+” by S&P if such institution has no short-term rating), the assets held in such Account shall be moved within 60 calendar days to another institution that is rated at least “A-1” by S&P (or at least “A+” by S&P if such institution has no short-term rating) and (2) at least “P-1” by Moody’s (or at least “A1” by Moody’s if such institution has no short-term rating) and

Page 101

if such institution’s rating falls below “P-1” by Moody’s (or below “A1” by Moody’s if such institution has no short-term rating), the assets held in such Account shall be moved within 60 calendar days to another institution that is rated at least “P-1” by Moody’s (or at least “A1” by Moody’s if such institution has no short-term rating) or (b) in segregated securities accounts with the corporate trust department of a Federal or state-chartered deposit institution subject to regulations regarding fiduciary funds on deposit similar to Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulation Section 9.10(b). Such institution shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$200,000,000. All Cash deposited in the Accounts shall be invested only in Eligible Investments or Portfolio Assets in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. To avoid the consolidation of the Collateral of the Issuer with the general assets of the Bank under any circumstances, the Trustee shall comply, and shall cause the Custodian to comply, with all law applicable to it as a national bank with trust powers holding segregated trust assets in a fiduciary capacity; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to prevent the Trustee or Custodian from investing the Collateral of the Issuer in Eligible Investments described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof that are obligations of the Bank.

10.2 Collection Account

(a) In accordance with this Indenture and the Issuer Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, cause to be established by the Custodian two segregated securities accounts, one of which will be designated the “Interest Collection Subaccount” and one of which will be designated the “Principal Collection Subaccount” (and which together will comprise the Collection Account), each in the name of the Issuer, subject to the security interest of State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and each of which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Issuer Account Control Agreement. The Trustee shall from time to time deposit into the Interest Collection Subaccount, in addition to the deposits required pursuant to Section 10.4(a), immediately upon receipt thereof or upon transfer from the Expense Account or Payment Account, (i) all proceeds received from the disposition of any Collateral to the extent such proceeds constitute “Interest Collections” and (ii) all other Interest Collections. The Trustee shall deposit immediately upon receipt thereof all other amounts remitted to the Collection Account into the Principal Collection Subaccount, including in addition to the deposits required pursuant to Section 10.4(a), all Principal Collections (unless simultaneously reinvested in additional Portfolio Assets in accordance with Section 10.2(c) and Article 12 or in Eligible Investments). All Cash deposited from time to time in the Collection Account pursuant to this Indenture shall be held by the Trustee as part of the Collateral and shall be applied to the purposes herein provided. Subject to Section 10.2(c), amounts in the Collection Account shall be reinvested pursuant to Section 10.4(a).

(b) The Trustee, within one Business Day after receipt of any distribution or other proceeds in respect of the Collateral which are not Cash, shall so notify the Issuer and the Valuation Agent, and the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable

Page 102

efforts to, within five Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Trustee (or as soon as practicable thereafter), sell such distribution or other proceeds for Cash in an arm’s length transaction and deposit the proceeds thereof in the Collection Account;provided that the Issuer need not be required to sell such distributions or other proceeds if it delivers an Issuer Order or an Officer’s certificate to the Trustee and the Valuation Agent certifying that such distributions or other proceeds constitute (i) Portfolio Assets that would have satisfied the requirements of Section 12.2 on the date of receipt thereof had they been acquired directly by the Issuer or (ii) Eligible Investments.

(c) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, withdraw funds on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount representing Principal Collections (together with Interest Collections but only to the extent used to pay for accrued interest or capitalized interest on an additional Portfolio Asset) and reinvest such funds in additional Portfolio Assets or exercise a warrant held in the Collateral, in each case in accordance with the requirements of Article 12 and such Issuer Order.

(d) At any time, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, withdraw funds on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount representing Principal Collections and deposit such funds in the Delayed-Draw/Committed Proceeds Account to the extent necessary for the Issuer to comply with funding requirements on Delayed-Draw Loans and Committed Proceeds Assets.

(e) The Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer may by Issuer Order direct the Trustee to, and upon receipt of such Issuer Order the Trustee shall, pay from amounts on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount on any Business Day during any Monthly Period any amount required to exercise a warrant or right to acquire securities held in the Collateral in accordance with the requirements of Article 12 and such Issuer Order.

(f) The Trustee shall transfer to the Payment Account, from the Collection Account, for application pursuant to Section 11.1(a), no later than the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding each Payment Date, the amount set forth to be so transferred in the Payment Date Report for such Payment Date.

(g) The Trustee shall, at the direction of the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) and pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.5(e) of the Revolving Credit Note Agreement, be permitted to transfer the amount of any permitted repayments under the Revolving Credit Note Agreement from the Principal Collection Subaccount to the relevant Class A-R Noteholder’s Class A-R Prepayment Account (or to such account or accounts as such Class A-R Noteholder shall otherwise direct the Trustee in writing).

Page 103

10.3 Transaction Accounts

(a) Payment Account. In accordance with this Indenture and the Issuer Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, cause to be established by the Custodian a single, segregated non-interest bearing securities account in the name of the Issuer, subject to the security interest of State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which shall be designated as the Payment Account, which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Issuer Account Control Agreement. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be to pay amounts due and payable on the Notes in accordance with their terms and the provisions of this Indenture. The Issuer shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Payment Account. Amounts in the Payment Account shall remain uninvested.

(b) Custodial Accounts. In accordance with this Indenture and the Issuer Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, cause to be established by the Custodian a single, segregated non-interest bearing securities account in the name of the Issuer, subject to the security interest of State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which shall be designated as the Custodial Account, which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Issuer Account Control Agreement. All Portfolio Assets shall be credited to the Custodial Account. The only permitted withdrawals from the Custodial Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer immediate notice if (to the actual knowledge of a Trust Officer of the Trustee) the Custodial Account or any assets or securities on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Custodial Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.

(c) Expense Account. In accordance with this Indenture and the Issuer Account Control Agreement, the Trustee shall, prior to the Closing Date, cause to be established by the Custodian a single, segregated non-interest bearing securities account in the name of the Issuer, subject to the security interest of State Street Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which shall be designated as the Expense Account, which shall be maintained with the Custodian in accordance with the Issuer Account Control Agreement. On the Closing Date, a portion of the proceeds of the Notes in an amount equal to U.S.$270,275 shall be deposited into the Expense Account for use pursuant to this Section 10.3(c).

All funds on deposit in the Expense Account will be invested in Eligible Investments at the direction of the Collateral

Page 104

Manager. Any income earned on amounts deposited in the Expense Account will be deposited in the Expense Account upon receipt thereof. All amounts remaining on deposit in the Expense Account at the time when substantially all of the assets of the Issuer have been sold or otherwise disposed of will be deposited by the Trustee into the Principal Collection Subaccount for application as Principal Collections on the immediately succeeding Payment Date. If on any date the Trustee obtains knowledge (or is notified by the Collateral Manager or the Valuation Agent) that the aggregate Administrative Expenses payable at any time during a Monthly Period exceeds, or will exceed, the sum of Cash and Eligible Investments then credited to the Expense Account, the Trustee shall so inform the Collateral Manager, the Valuation Agent and the Sole Shareholder and the Sole Shareholder shall be required, pursuant to the Issuer Contribution Agreement and within one Business Day of such notification, to make a capital contribution to the Issuer in an amount at least equal to such shortfall and the Trustee shall credit any such contribution payment to the Expense Account.

In connection with the application of funds from the Expense Account to pay Administrative Expenses of the Issuer, as the case may be, in accordance with this Section 10.3(c), the Trustee shall remit such funds, to the extent available, as directed and designated in an Issuer Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions, including standing instructions to pay Administrative Expenses in such amounts on any Payment Date and to such entities as indicated in the Payment Date Report in respect of such Payment Date) delivered to the Trustee no later than the Business Day prior to the date of payment of such Administrative Expense.

13.1 Relations among Holders

(a) Each Holder agrees, for the benefit of all Holders, not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer until the payment in full of all Notes (and any other debt obligations of the Issuer that have been rated upon issuance by any rating agency at the request of the Issuer) and the expiration of a period equal to one year and one day or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect plus one day, following such payment in full. In the event one or more Holders of Notes cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer prior to the expiration of such period, any claim that such Holder(s) have against the Issuer or with respect to any Collateral (including any proceeds thereof) shall be fully subordinate in right of payment to the claims of each Holder of any Note that does

not seek to cause any such filing, with such subordination being effective until each Note held by each Holder of any Note that does not seek to cause any such filing is paid in full in accordance with the Priority of Payments set forth herein (after giving effect to such subordination). The foregoing sentence shall constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

14. MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee

In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an Officer of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager may and, where required by the Issuer shall, be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel (provided that such counsel is a nationally or internationally recognized and reputable law firm), unless such Officer knows, or should know that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Officer of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager or Opinion of Counsel may and, where required by the Issuer, shall be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or any other Person, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or such other Person, unless such Officer of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager or such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may also be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an Officer of the Collateral Manager, the

Page 120

Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such matters is in the possession of the Collateral Manager, the Issuer, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation of a Default or Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Trustee at the request or direction of the Issuer, then notwithstanding that the satisfaction of such condition is a condition precedent to the Issuer’s right to make such request or direction, the Trustee shall be protected in acting in accordance with such request or direction if it does not have knowledge of the occurrence and continuation of such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section 6.1(d).

14.2 Acts of Holders

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in writing or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action or actions embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as theAct of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 14.2.

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

(c) The principal amount or face amount, as the case may be, and registered numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of such Person’s holding the same, shall be proved by the applicable Note Register.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder (and any transferee thereof) of such and of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

Page 123

14.4 Notices to Holders; Waiver

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event,

(a) such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Note Registers (or, in the case of Holders of Global Notes, emailed to DTC for distribution to each Holder affected by such event), not earlier than the earliest date and not later than the latest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice; and

(b) such notice shall be in the English language.

Such notices will be deemed to have been given on the date of such mailing.

Notwithstanding clause (a) above, a Holder may give the Trustee a written notice that it is requesting that notices to it be given by electronic mail or by facsimile transmissions and stating the electronic mail address or facsimile number for such transmission. Thereafter, the Trustee shall give notices to such Holder by electronic mail or facsimile transmission, as so requested;provided that if such notice also requests that notices be given by mail, then such notice shall also be given by mail in accordance with clause (a) above.

The Trustee will deliver to the Holders any information or notice relating to this Indenture requested to be so delivered by at least 25% of the Holders (by Aggregate Outstanding Amount), at the expense of the Issuer. The Trustee may require the requesting Holders to comply with its standard verification policies in order to confirm Holder status.

Neither the failure to mail any notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail of any event to Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then such notification to Holders as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and

Page 124

such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

The Article and Section headings herein (including those used in cross-references herein) and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.
