and shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity as provided in Article IV of this Indenture.

(a) VariabZe Rate. The Variable Rate of interest borne by the Bonds during each Variable Interest Accrual Period while the Bonds bear interest in the Daily Mode or a Weekly Mode, as applicable, shall be the Variable Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent and reported to the Trustee, the Tender Agent, the Borrower and the Credit Bank, as provided in Section 8.12 hereof, on the Variable Interest Computation Date for such Variable Interest Accrual Period. Any Bondholder may obtain information on the Variable Rate by written
request to the Trustee. The Bonds shall bear interest during any Variable Period computed on
the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as appropriate, and actual number of days elapsed.
The Variable Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent on each Variable Interest Computation Date shall be that rate of interest which, if borne by the Bonds, would, in its reasonable commercial judgment, having due regard to prevailing financial market conditions, be the interest rate necessary, but which would not exceed the interest rate necessary, to produce
as nearly as practicable a par bid (disregarding accrued interest) if Bonds were sold on the first
day of the next Variable Interest Accrual Period; provided, however, that in no event shall the
Variable Rate at any time exceed the Maximum Interest Rate. If the Remarketing Agent shall fail
or refuse to determine the Variable Rate on any Variable Interest Computation Date, then the
existing Variable Rate shall remain in effect for each Variable Interest Accrual Period thereafter
until the Remarketing Agent determines the Variable Rate as provided above.
The determination of the Variable Rate by the Remarketing Agent shall (in the absence of manifest error) be conclusive and binding on the holders of the Bonds, the Issuer, the Borrower, the Credit Bank, the Remarketing Agent, the Tender Agent and the Trustee, and each shall be protected in relying on it.
On any date on which the Bonds begin to bear interest in Weekly Mode or a Daily Mode, the Issuer shall cause to be prepared, if necessary, at the expense of the Borrower, new Bonds m the form set forth in Exhibit A. Any such Bonds shall be executed and authenticated as provided in Section 2.04 and shall be delivered to Bondholders on the Interest Payment Date on which such mode change is effective without charge in exchange for any Outstanding Bonds.
Change in Variable Rate. The Variable Rate of interest borne by the Bonds may, at the request of the Borrower and with the written consent of the Credit Bank, be converted to a Variable Mode other than the Variable Mode then in effect on any Interest Payment Date during a Variable Period or to a Variable Mode on any Reset Date in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection (b). In order to effect establishment of a Variable Mode
other than the Variable Mode then in effect, or a Variable Mode, the Borrower must deliver such
written consent and a written notice to the Trustee, the Issuer, the Tender Agent and the
Remarketing Agent at least 40 days prior to the effective date of such Variable Mode speclfylng the Interest Payment Date on which such Variable Mode will be effective. Such notice must be accompanied by (i) an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that the establishment of the Variable Mode in accordance with the procedure described in this subsection (b) is permitted by this Indenture and will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income
tax purposes or state tax purposes of interest on the Bonds, (ii) if necessary pursuant to Section 5.8(b) of the Financing Agreement, a written commitment, subject to customary commercial
conditions, for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, including, if applicable, evidence that the
Borrower has obtained a binding commitment for the issuance of a Standby Letter of Credit
meeting the requirements of Section5.9 of the Financing Agreement or a Substitute Credit
Facility meeting the requirements of Section 5.10 of the Financing Agreement, to be in effect on

the Bonds with respect to the establishment of such Variable Mode, (iv) payment to the Trustee of such amount as the Issuer reasonably determines may be required in connection with the
establishment of such Variable Mode, including, but not limited to, the Trustee’s fees and
expenses and the cost of printing Bonds, (v) written evidence from the Rating Agency to the
effect that the then current rating of the Bonds will not be lowered below an “A” or withdrawn
solely as a result of the establishment of such Variable Mode, and (vi) any redemption amounts
for each Interest Payment Date thereafter at a price equal to the principal amount of Bonds
subject to redemption plus interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without
premium, pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof.
If on any day at least eleven days before an applicable Reset Date, the Trustee (i)
receives written notice from the Borrower to the effect that it no longer wishes to change the
interest rate on the Bonds to the proposed Variable Mode, (ii) receives written notice from the Remarketing Agent or the Borrower that a Market Risk Event has occurred, or (iii) fails to
receive a substitute Letter of Credit, Standby Letter of Credit or Substitute Credit Facility as
provided by Sections 5.8, 5.9 or 5.10 of the Financing Agreement, as applicable, the Trustee
shall promptly cancel such election to establish a Variable Mode and the Bonds will bear
interest at a Variable Rate in the Weekly Mode; provided, however, to the extent that the Bonds
will bear interest at a Variable Rate in the Weekly Mode, the Trustee shall have received a Letter
of Credit, conforming to the provisions of Section 5.8(a) of the Financing Agreement, which is
effective on the date such Variable Rate is to be effective. If notice to registered owners of the
Bonds has been given by the Trustee of the establishment of the Variable Mode other than a
Weekly Mode, such notice of cancellation shall be sent to the registered owners by first class
mail by the Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable which also shall now the registered

Letter of Credit is not received by the Trustee, the Trustee shall redeem the Bonds pursuant to
the provisions of Section 4.01(d) hereof. The Trustee shall have no liability as a result of any
such cancellation. The Trustee shall also provide written notice of the cancellation to the Credit
Bank, the Issuer and the Remarketing Agent.
If the establishment of a Variable Mode has not been cancelled pursuant to the preceding
paragraph, the Trustee shall give notice to the registered owners of the Bonds, by first class mail, not less than ten days before the Interest Payment Date on which the Variable Mode will be effective: (i) the Variable Mode chosen by the Borrower, (ii) the Interest Payment Date on
which the Variable Mode will be effective; (iii) that all Outstanding Bonds shall be purchased
on the Interest Payment Date on which the Variable Mode will be effective at a price equal to
the Purchase Price and that Bonds not tendered for purchase on or before the Interest Payment
Date on which the Variable Mode will be effective will be deemed to have been so tendered; and
(iv) that all Bonds must be surrendered to the Tender Agent for purchase not later than 9:30
a.m., New York City time, on the Interest Payment Date on which the Variable Mode will be effective.
Any Bond not tendered to the Tender Agent for purchase on or before an applicable Reset Date on which a Variable Mode will be effective shall be deemed to have been tendered for purchase pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof on such date for all purposes of this Indenture, including particularly Article VIU hereof. Upon the receipt of written notice from the Remarketing Agent that the first day of a Variable Interest Accrual Period is to change, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the Bondholders of such change.

manifest error) be conclusive and binding on the holders of the Bonds, the Issuer, the Trustee,

hereto, with any such changes therein as may be approved in writing by the Issuer in its sole and
absolute discretion. The foregoing transfer restrictions may be waived by the Issuer from time to
time in its sole and absolute discretion. No such waiver shall be construed to be a waiver of, or
shall impair the right of the Issuer to enforce, such restrictions upon any other transfer of Bonds.

Trustee as registrar and authenticating agent and the Tender Agent as co-authenticating agent

exchangeable for definitive Bonds when ready for delivery. The temporary Bonds may be
printed, lithographed or typewritten, shall be of such denominations as may be determined by
the Issuer and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this Indenture as may be
appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Issuer and be authenticated and
registered by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as the
definitive Bonds. If the Issuer issues temporary Bonds, it will execute and furnish without delay
definitive Bonds, which may be printed, lithographed or typewritten, and thereupon the
temporary Bonds may be surrendered, for cancellation, in exchange therefor at the Principal
Office of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such
temporary Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds of Authorized
Denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds shall be entitled to the same benefits
under this Indenture as definitive Bonds authenticated and delivered hereunder.
Section 2.08. Bonds Mutilated, Lost, Destroyed or Stolen. If any Bond shall become
mutilated, the Issuer, at the expense of the holder of said Bond, shall execute, and the Trustee
shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and principal amount in
exchange and substitution for the Bond so mutilated, but only upon surrender to the Trustee of the Bonds so mutilated. Every mutilated Bond so surrendered to the Trustee shall be cancelled by it. If any Bond issued hereunder shall be lost, destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss,
destruction or theft may be submitted to the Trustee, and if such evidence is satisfactory to it
and indemnity for the Issuer and the Trustee satisfactory to the Trustee shall be given, the
Issuer, at the expense of the holder, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and principal amount in lieu of and in substitution for the
Bond so lost, destroyed or stolen (or if any such Bond shall have matured or shall have been called for redemption, instead of issuing a substitute Bond, the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer may pay the same without surrender thereof) upon receipt of the aforementioned indemnity. The Issuer may require payment of a reasonable fee for each new Bond delivered under this
26
Section and payment of the expenses which may be incurred by the Issuer and the Trustee. Any Bond delivered under the provisions of this Section in lieu of any Bond alleged to be lost,
destroyed or stolen shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation on the part of

DTC has represented to the Issuer that it will maintain a book-entry system in recording ownership interests of its participants (the ”Direct Participants”), and the ownership interests of a purchaser of a beneficial interest in the Bonds (a “Beneficial Owner”) will be recorded through book entries on the records of the Direct Participants.
(b) With respect to Bonds registered in the name of Cede, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank and the Tender Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Direct
Participant or to any Beneficial Owner of such Bonds. Without limiting the immediately
preceding sentence, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank and the Tender Agent shall have no
responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of DTC, Cede or any
Direct Participant with respect to any beneficial ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any Direct Participant, Beneficial Owner or other person, other than DTC, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, (iii) the payment to any Direct Participant, Beneficial Owner or other person, other than DTC, of any amount with
respect to the principal or redemption price of, or any interest on, the Bonds or (iv) any consent given or other action taken by DTC as owner of the Bonds. The Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank and the Tender Agent may treat DTC as, and deem DTC to be, the absolute owner of
each Bond for all purposes whatsoever including (but not limited to) (i) payment of the
principal or redemption price of, and interest on, each such Bond, (ii) giving notices of purchase
or redemption and other matters with respect to such Bonds and (iii) registering transfers with
respect to such Bonds. The Trustee shall pay the principal or redemption price of, and interest
on, all Bonds only to or upon the order of DTC, and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such principal or
redemption price, and interest, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than
DTC shall receive a Bond evidencing the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal
or redemption price of, and interest on, the Bonds pursuant to this Indenture. Upon delivery by DTC to the Trustee of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede, and subject to the transfer provisions hereof, the word ”Cede” in this
Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of DTC.
i. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to
the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable written notice to the Issuer, the Trustee and
the Tender Agent and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under
applicable law.
ii. The Issuer, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any other
person, or the Borrower, with the consent of the Issuer, may terminate, upon provision of
27
7Y
notice to the Trustee, the Credit Bank and Tender Agent, the services of DTC with
respect to the Bonds if the Issuer or the Borrower determines that the continuation of the
system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository)
is not in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds or is burdensome to the
Issuer, and shall terminate the services of DTC with respect to the Bonds upon receipt
by the Issuer, the Trustee and the Tender Agent of written notice from DTC to the effect
that DTC has received written notice from Direct Participants having interests, as
shown in the records of DTC, in an aggregate principal amount of not less than 50% of
the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Bonds to the effect, that: (A)
DTC is unable to discharge its responsibilities with respect to such Bonds; or (B) a
continuation of the requirement that all of the Outstanding Bonds be registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, is not in
the best interest of the Beneficial Owners of such Bonds.
(d) Upon the termination of the services of DTC with respect to the Bonds pursuant to subsection (c)(ii)(B) hereof, or upon the discontinuance or termination of the services of DTC with respect to the Bonds pursuant to subsection (c)(i) or subsection (c)(ii)(A) hereof after which no substitute securities depository willing to undertake the functions of DTC hereunder can be found or which, in the opinion of the Issuer, is willing and able to undertake such
functions upon reasonable and customary terms, the Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being
registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee in the name of Cede as nominee of DTC.
In such event, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall transfer and exchange Bond certificates
as requested by DTC or Direct Participants and confirmed by DTC of like principal amount,
series and maturity, in Authorized Denominations to the identifiable Beneficial Owners in
replacement of such Beneficial Owners’ beneficial interests in the Bonds.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to the principal or redemption price of, and interest on, such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, to DTC as provided in the representation
letter of the Issuer and the Trustee addressed to DTC with respect to the Bonds.
(f) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to
Bondowners pursuant to this Indenture by the Issuer, the Tender Agent or the Trustee with
respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Bondowners, the Issuer, the Tender Agent,
the Credit Bank or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for such
consent or other action and give DTC notice of such record date not less than 15 calendar days
in advance of such record date to the extent the Trustee is reasonably able to do so.
(g) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Issuer and the Trustee
may agree to allow DTC, or its nominee, Cede, to make a notation on any Bond redeemed in
part to reflect, for informational purposes only, the principal amount and date of any such
redemption; provided, however, the Trustee shall incur no liability for any error or failure of
DTC to make such notation, and the records of the Trustee shall be controlling.
(h) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, so long as the Bonds are subject to a system of book-entry-only transfers pursuant to this Section, any requirement for the delivery of Bonds to the Trustee or the Tender Agent in connection with a mandatory tender
pursuant to Section2.02 or Section 2.03 shall be deemed satisfied upon the transfer, on the registration books of DTC, of the beneficial ownership interests in such Bonds tendered for
purchase to the account of the Tender Agent, or a Direct Participant acting on behalf of the
Tender Agent.
28
(i) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the services of DTC with
respect to the Bonds shall be terminated during any period in which no Letter of Credit is then in effect by reason of the provisions of Section 4.06 hereof. In such event, the Trustee shall cooperate with the Credit Bank to effect the provisions of Section 2.09(d) above.

as separate Bonds. The Trustee shall promptly no* the Issuer in writing of the numbers of the

Each notice of redemption shall state the redemption date, the place of redemption, the source of the funds to be used for such redemption, the principal amount and, if less than all, the distinctive numbers of the Bonds to be redeemed, and shall also
state that the interest on the Bonds in such notice designated for redemption shall cease to
accrue from and after such redemption date and that on said date there will become due and

is provided to the registered owners prior to the redemption date, and in the case of the notice
to Securities Depositories, when possible, at least two days prior to the mailing of notices
required by the first paragraph of this Section. Failure to give notice by mailing to any Securities

proceedings for the redemption of any Bond.

part, but no part of any Bond shall be redeemed in an amount less than an Authorized
Denomination. Upon surrender of any Bond redeemed in part only, the Issuer shall execute and

owner thereof, a new Bond or Bonds of like series and maturity and of Authorized
Denominations designated by such owner equal in aggregate principal amount to the
unredeemed portion of the Bond surrendered.

Section 4.05. Effect of Redemption. Notice of redemption having been duly given as
aforesaid, and moneys for payment of the redemption price being held by the Trustee, the
Bonds so called for redemption shall, on the redemption date designated in such notice, become
due and payable at the redemption price specified in such notice, interest on the Bonds so
called for redemption shall cease to accrue, said Bonds shall cease to be entitled to any lien,
benefit or security under this Indenture, and the holders of said Bonds shall have no rights in
respect thereof except to receive payment of the redemption price thereof.

Bank under and as set forth in Section 7.02 of the Financing Agreement shall be exercised by the
sole Bondowner and all references to the Credit Bank in said Section shall be deemed to be
references to the sole Bondowner, and (iii) the Trustee shall surrender the Letter of Credit and
Standby Letter of Credit in effect prior to such purchase to the respective providers thereof
with written directions of the Trustee to terminate such Letter of Credit and Standby Letter of
Credit. The purchase price for each Bond shall be equal to the redemption price which would
otherwise apply pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof and shall be paid as provided in Section 8.15
hereof. Anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture notwithstanding, Bonds

owned by the Credit Bank pursuant to this Section. Bonds purchased pursuant to this Section
4.06 shall be registered by the Trustee in the name of the Credit Bank of its successor or

DEFAULT
Section 7.01. Events of Default; Acceleration; Waiver of Default. Each of the following
events shall constitute an ”Event of Default” hereunder:
(a) failure to pay the principal of or premium (if any) on any Bond when and
as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity as therein expressed, by proceedings for redemption, by declaration or otherwise;
failure to pay any installment of interest on any Bond when such interest (b) installment shall become due and payable;
(c) failure to pay the Purchase Price of any Bond tendered in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 or 2.03 hereof when such Purchase Price shall become
due and payable; and
failure by the Issuer to perform or observe any other of the covenants,
agreements or conditions on its part in this Indenture or in the Bonds contained, and the
continuation of such failure for a period of 60 days after written notice thereof, specdying such default and requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Issuer, the Borrower and the Credit Bank by the Trustee, or to the Issuer, the Credit Bank, the Borrower and the Trustee by the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding.
No default specified in (d) above shall constitute an Event of Default unless the Issuer, the Borrower or the Credit Bank shall have failed to correct such default within the applicable period; provided, however, that if the default shall be such that it cannot be corrected within such period, it shall not constitute an Event of Default if corrective action is instituted by the Issuer, the Borrower or the Credit Bank within the applicable period and diligently pursued until the default is corrected. With regard to any alleged default conceming which notice is given to the Borrower or the Credit Bank under the provisions of (d) above, the Issuer hereby grants the Borrower and the Credit Bank full authority for the account of the Issuer to perform any covenant or obligation the nonperformance of which is alleged in said notice to constitute a
default in the name and stead of the Issuer with full power to do any and all things and acts to the same extent that the Issuer could do and perform any such things and acts and with power of substitution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Financing Agreement, if the Credit Bank is unable to cure any default specified in Section 7.01(d) and no default has occurred under any other subsection of this Section 7.01, no person other than the Credit Bank shall have the right to declare an Event of Default under Section 7.01(d) or exercise any right arising from any such Event of Default.
In the event of an Event of Default and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, unless the principal of all the Bonds shall have already become due and payable, the Trustee may, and upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in (a), (b) or (c) above or upon the written request of the Credit Bank in the case of any other Event of Default,
the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Issuer, the Credit Bank, the Borrower and the
Remarketing Agent, declare the principal of all the Bonds then Outstanding, and the interest
accrued thereon, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same
shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in this Indenture or in the
Bonds contained to the contrary notwithstanding. Upon any such declaration of acceleration the Trustee shall fix a date for payment of the Bonds, which date shall be as soon as
(d)
45 I qz
practicable after such declaration, and shall draw upon any then outstanding Letter of Credit in accordance with its terms and the provisions of Article V hereof and apply the amount so drawn to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds so due and payable.
The preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after
the principal of the Bonds shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any
drawing is made under the Letter of Credit or any judgment or decree for the payment of the
moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, there shall have been
deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all the principal of the Bonds matured prior
to such declaration and all matured installments of interest (if any) upon all the Bonds, with
interest on such overdue installments of principal, and the reasonable fees and expenses of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any and all other defaults known to the Trustee (other than
in the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds due and payable solely by reason of
such declaration) shall have been made good or cured to the satisfaction of the Trustee or
provision deemed by the Trustee to be adequate shall have been made therefor, then, and m
every such case, the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal mount of the Bonds then Outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer and to the Trustee and with indemnification satisfactory to the Trustee and with the written approval of the Credit Bank, may, on behalf of the holders of all the Bonds, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and waive such default; but no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair or exhaust any right or power consequent thereon.
Section 7.02. Institution of Legal Proceedings by Trustee. If one or more of the Events of
Default shall occur and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee in its
discretion may, and upon the written request of the holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Bonds then Outstanding and, in the case of an Event of Default described in Section
7.01(d), upon the written request of the Credit Bank, and upon being indemnified to its
satisfaction therefor the Trustee shall proceed to protect or enforce its rights or the rights of the
holders of Bonds under this Indenture, the Financing Agreement and the Letter of Credit, by a
suit in equity or action at law, either for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement
contained herein or therein, or in aid of the execution of any power herein or therein granted, or
by mandamus or other appropriate proceeding for the enforcement of any other legal or
equitable remedy as the Trustee shall deem most effectual in support of any of its rights or
duties hereunder, provided that any such request from the Bondholders or the Credit Bank shall
not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, expose the Trustee to personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to Bondholders not joining therein.
Section 7.03. Application of Moneys Collected by Trustee. Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02 or 7.06, provided, however, any moneys realized from a
draw on the Letter of Credit or the Standby Letter of Credit shall be applied only to the
payment of the principal and Purchase Price of and interest on the Bonds, shall be applied in
the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in the case of distribution of
such moneys on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the
Bonds and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if
fully paid:

46
certified in writing to the Trustee, until all amounts due on all Bonds not so registered have been paid.
Third: For payment of all other amounts due to any person hereunder or under
the Financing Agreement as certified by the Credit Bank to the Trustee.
Fourth: To the Credit Bank to the extent of any amounts due it under the Credit
Agreement.
Section 7.04. Effect of Delay or Omission To Pursue Remedy. No delay or omission of the Trustee, of the Credit Bank or of any holder of Bonds to exercise any right or power arising from any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or acquiescence therein, and every power and remedy given by this Article W to the Trustee, to the Credit Bank or to the holders of Bonds may be exercised from time to time and as often as shall be deemed expedient. In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of waiver or for any other reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank and the holders of the Bonds, severally and respectively, shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder in respect to the trust estate; and all remedies, rights and powers of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank and the holders of the Bonds shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.
Section 7.05. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, to the Credit Bank or to any holder of the Bonds is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
Section 7.06. Covenant To Pay Bonds in Event of Default. The Issuer covenants that,
upon the happening of any Event of Default, the Issuer will pay to the Trustee upon demand,
but only out of Revenues, for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds, the whole amount then due
and payable thereon (by declaration or otherwise) for interest or for principal and premium, or
both, as the case may be, and all other sums which may be due hereunder or secured hereby, including reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any expenses or liabilities incurred by the Trustee hereunder. In case the Issuer shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction shall be entitled to institute proceedings at law or inequity in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover judgment for the whole amount due
and unpaid, together with costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, subject, however, to the
condition that such judgment, if any, shall be limited to, and payable solely out of, Revenues
and any other assets pledged, transferred or assigned to the Trustee under Section 5.04 as
herein provided and not otherwise. The Trustee shall be entitled to recover such judgment as
aforesaid, either before or after or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement
of this Indenture, and the right of the Trustee to recover such judgment shall not be affected by
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions of this
Indenture.
Section 7.07. Trustee Appointed Agent for Bondholders. The Trustee is hereby
appointed the agent and attorney of the holders of all Bonds Outstanding hereunder for the
purpose of filing any claims relating to the Bonds.
Section 7.08. Right of Credit Bank and Bondholders to Direct Proceedings. Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Credit Bank (so long as the Standby Credit
Bank, if any, is not in default under the Standby Letter of Credit), and the Holders of a
47
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding shall have the right, by

Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby
declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any holder of Bonds of any
remedy hereunder; it being understood and intended that no one or more holders of Bonds shall
have any right in any manner whatever by its or their action to enforce any right under this
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity to
enforce any provision of this Indenture shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner
herein provided and for the equal benefit of all holders of the Outstanding Bonds.

48
registered owner of Bonds then Outstanding, provided that, except in the case of a default m the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Bond, the Trustee may withhold such notice to the Bondholders if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Bondholders; and provided further
that, in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 7.01(d), no such notice to
the Bondholders shall be given until at least 30 days after notice thereof is received by the
Trustee.
Section 7.12. No Default; Deemed Redemption. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 7.01 hereof, during any period in which no Letter of Credit is then in effect (by reason of
the provisions of Section 4.06 hereof) there shall never occur an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 7.01(a), (b) or (c) hereof, by reason of a failure of the Borrower to make full payments
on the Loan. If there is an Event of Default under and as defined in the Financing Agreement,
the then sole Bondholder shall have the right to cause the Bonds to be subject to mandatory
redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(c) hereof. Upon such mandatory redemption of the
Bonds, all Outstanding Bonds shall be deemed redeemed as of the date of mandatory
redemption. Upon such redemption date, all of the Bonds shall cease to bear interest and the
sole Bondholder shall have no further rights except to obtain the distribution of the proceeds of
the funds and other assets pledged to the Bonds, and such deemed redemption shall constitute
payment in full of the Bonds, notwithstanding that amounts so distributed may be insufficient
to pay the outstanding principal amount of the Bond and accrued interest thereon. The Trustee
shall liquidate and distribute such funds and assets in accordance with Section 7.03 hereof.
By their acceptance of the Bonds, the Bondholder hereby consents to the deemed redemption as described above and upon such deemed redemption the Bondholder shall no longer look to the Issuer to receive payment of the principal and interest and all other sums, if any, which are due under the Bonds, but shall look solely to the funds and other assets pledged to the Bondholder hereunder.

the Issuer or the Trustee to the other shall be given to the Tender Agent and the Credit Bank. The Issuer, the Administrator, the Trustee, the Tender Agent, the Credit Bank, the Remarketing Agent, the Rating Agency and the Borrower may, by notice given hereunder, designate any further or different addresses to which subsequent notices, certificates or other communications shall be sent. Failure to provide any such duplicate notice pursuant to the foregoing sentence, or any defect in any such duplicate notice so provided, shall not be treated as a failure to give the
primary notice or affect the validity thereof or the effectiveness of any action taken pursuant
there to.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.06, the Trustee shall not be
deemed to have received, and shall not be liable for failing to act upon the contents of, any
notice unless and until the Trustee actually receives such notice.
Section 11.07. Authorized Bank Representatives May Act for Borrower. Whenever
under the provisions of this Indenture the approval of the Issuer, the Credit Bank or the
69
Borrower is required for any action, and whenever the Issuer, the Credit Bank or the Borrower is required to deliver any notice or other writing, such approval or such notice or other writing shall be given, respectively, on behalf of the Issuer by the Designated Officer or on behalf of the Credit Bank by the Authorized Bank Representative or on behalf of the Borrower by the Authorized Borrower Representative, and the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank and the Borrower shall be authorized to act on any such approval or notice or other writing and neither party hereto nor the Credit Bank nor the Borrower shall have any complaint against the others

Credit Bank is in default of its payment obligations under the Standby Letter of Credit. €n
designating its Authorized Bank Representative, the Credit Bank shall have the right to provide
specific instructions to the Trustee in relation to the action which any of such Authorized Bank
Representatives is authorized to take as a representative of the Credit Bank under this
Indenture.
Following receipt of a notice from the Credit Bank of its election to do so based upon an
event of default by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Trustee shall recognize any request, notice, approval or other action of the Credit Bank instead of the request, notice,
approval or other action of the Borrower relating to requests, notices, approvals or other actions
which the Borrower is entitled to take under this Indenture. All of such rights of the Borrower
hereunder may be exercised by the Credit Bank upon receipt of such notice by the Trustee;
provided, however, the Credit Bank shall not be deemed to have assumed the obligations of the
Borrower under this Indenture, the Financing Agreement, the Regulatory Agreement or any other
document, certification or other instrument relating to the Bonds by reason of such notice or the exercise of such rights.
Section 11.08. Evidence of Rights of Bondholders. (a) Any request, consent or other
instrument required by this Indenture to be signed and executed by Bondholders may be in any
number of concurrent writings of substantially similar tenor and may be signed or executed by
such Bondholders in person or by an agent or agents duly appointed in writing. Proof of the execution of any such request, consent or other instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the ownership of any Bonds, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and shall be conclusive in favor of the Trustee and of the Issuer if made in the manner provided
in this Section.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such request, consent or other instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer of any jurisdiction, authorized by the laws thereof to take acknowledgments of deeds, cerhfylng that the person signing such request, consent or other instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof.
(c) The ownership of Bonds shall be proved by the Bond register maintained pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof. The fact and the date of execution of any request, consent or other instrument and the amount and distinguishing numbers of Bonds held by the person so executing such request, consent or other instrument may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee may deem sufficient. The Trustee may nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it may deem further proof desirable.
Any request, consent or vote of the holder of any Bond shall bind every future holder of the same Bond and the holder of any Bond issued in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Issuer in pursuance of such request, consent or vote.
(d)
70
(e) In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Bonds have concurred in any demand, request, direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Bonds which are owned by the Issuer or by any other direct or indirect obligor on the Bonds, or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, the Issuer or any other direct or indirect obligor on the Bonds, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, provided that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such demand, request, direction, consent or waiver, only Bonds which the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be disregarded. Bonds so owned which have
been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this subsection (e) if the pledgee shall certify to the Trustee and the Issuer the pledgee’s right to vote such
Bonds and that the pledgee is not a person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or
under direct or indirect common control with, the Issuer or any other direct or indirect obligor on
the Bonds. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Solely for purposes of the limitation
expressed in this paragraph (e), the Credit Bank and the Borrower shall be deemed to be
indirect obligors on the Bonds. The provisions of this paragraph (e) shall not apply to the Credit Bank for the period of time that it is the owners of all the Bonds.
(f) In lieu of obtaining any demand, request, direction, consent or waiver in writing,
the Trustee may call and hold a meeting of the Bondholders upon such notice and in accordance
with such rules and regulations as the Trustee considers fair and reasonable for the purpose of
obtaining any such action.
Section 11.09. Holidays. If the date for making any payment or the last date for
performance of any act or the exercising of any right, as provided in this Indenture, is not a
Business Day, such payment may be made or act performed or right exercised on the next
succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if done on the date provided
therefor in this Indenture and, in the case of any payment, no interest shall accrue for the period
from and after such date.
Section 11.10. Governing Law. This Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State.
Section 11.11. Execution in Several Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to
be an original; and all such counterparts, or as many of them as the Issuer and the Trustee shall
preserve undestroyed, shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
Section 11.12. References to the Credit Bank; Other Documents. All provisions hereof
regarding consents, approvals, directions, waivers, appointments, requests or other actions by
the Credit Bank shall be deemed not to require or permit such consents, approvals, directions, waivers, appointments, requests or other actions and shall be read as if the Credit Bank were not mentioned therein (a) during any period during which there is a payment default under the Standby Letter of Credit, or (b) after the Standby Letter of Credit shall at any time for any reason cease to be valid and binding on the Standby Credit Bank, or shall be declared to be null and void by final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or after the Standby Credit Bank has rescinded, repudiated or terminated the Standby Letter of Credit in writing; provided, however, that the payment of amounts due (including without limitation all indemnity payments) to the Credit Bank pursuant to the terms hereof shall continue in full force and
effect. The foregoing shall not affect any other rights of the Credit Bank.
All provisions herein relating to the rights of the Credit Bank shall be of no force and effect if there is no Letter of Credit in effect, the Credit Bank does not own any Bonds pursuant
71
to Section 4.06 and all amounts owing to the Credit Bank under the Credit Agreement have been paid. In such event, all references to the Credit Bank shall have no force or effect.
The Credit Bank shall be entitled to enforce its rights hereunder as a third party beneficiary hereof; provided that the Issuer shall be under no obligation to enforce any of such rights. Nothing contained herein or in any other document, including without limitation the Credit Agreement or any other document to which the Credit Bank is a party, shall be construed to impose on the Issuer any obligation to enforce or to assist any other party in enforcing any provision of any document to which the Issuer is not a party.
Section 11.13. Replacement Trust Indenture. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Indenture, upon Loan Conversion, the terms and provisions of the Trust Indenture executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Trustee on the Closing Date, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit F, shall become effective and the terms and provisions of this Indenture executed and delivered on the Closing Date shall be of no further affect and shall be null and void.
Section 11.14. Qualified Project Costs. The Borrower has covenanted in the Financing
Agreement that the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used exclusively to pay costs which (i) are
(A) capital expenditures (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.150-1(a)) and (B) not made for the acquisition of existing property, to the extent prohibited in Section 147(d) of the Code, and (ii) are made exclusively with respect to a ”qualified residential rental project” within the meaning of Section 142(d) of the Code and that for the greatest number of buildings the proceeds of the Bonds shall be deemed allocated on a pro rata basis to each building in the Project and the land on which it is located so that each building and the land on which it is located will have been financed 50% or more by the proceeds of the Bonds for the purpose of complying with Section 42(h)(4)(B) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, such covenant is made for the benefit of the Borrower and its partners and neither the Trustee nor the Issuer shall have any obligation to enforce this statement nor shall they in= any liability to any person, including without limitation, the Borrower, the partners of the Borrower, any other affiliate of the Borrower or the holders of the Bonds for any failure to meet the intent expressed in the foregoing covenant.

This Bond is one of a duly authorized issue of bonds of the Issuer designated as "City of Carlsbad Variable Rate Demand Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (Mariposa Apartments)
2003 Series B" (the "Bonds"), in the initial aggregate principal amount of $
authorized to be issued pursuant to Chapter 7 of Part 5 of Division 31 of the Califomia Health
and Safety Code (the "Housing Law"), and issued under and secured by an Trust Indenture,
dated as of June 1, 2003 (herein called the "Indenture"), between the Issuer and the Trustee.
Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto for a
description of the rights thereunder of the registered owners of the Bonds, of the nature and
extent of the security, of the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee and of the rights and
obligations of the Issuer thereunder, to all of the provisions of which Indenture the registered
owner of this Bond, by acceptance hereof, assents and agrees.
This Bond shall bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid next
preceding the date of authentication of this Bond (unless this Bond is authenticated as of an
Interest Payment Date, as defined below, for which interest has been paid, or after the Record
Date in respect thereof, in which event it shall bear interest from such Interest Payment Date, or
unless it is authenticated on or before the Record Date for the first Interest Payment Date, in
which event it shall bear interest from the date of the Bonds), at the initial rate per annum for
the initial period set forth in the Indenture, and thereafter, at the rate determined as provided
A-1-1
herein, payable on each Interest Payment Date. The term "Interest Payment Date" means the
first Business Day of each month commencing , until the rate of interest on the
Bonds is established at a Reset Rate or Fixed Rate, both as defined in the Indenture, and
thereafter means June 1 and December 1 of each year. The term "Record Date" means, during
any Variable Period, as defined in the Indenture, the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding an Interest Payment Date.
THE BONDS ARE NOT AN OBLIGATION, EITHER GENERAL OR SPECIAL, AND
DO NOT CONSTITUTE A PLEDGE OF THE GENERAL CREDIT OR TAXING POWER (AS
APPLICABLE), OF CITY OF CARLSBAD, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR ANY
POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, BUT ARE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE
REVENUES AND PROPERTY PLEDGED THEREFOR IN THE INDENTURE, AND NEITHER CITY OF CARLSBAD, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA NOR ANY SUCH POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF SHALL BE LIABLE THEREON. THE ISSUER HAS NO TAXING POWER.
The Bonds are limited obligations of the Issuer and, as and to the extent set forth in the Indenture, are payable solely from, and secured by a pledge of and lien on, the Revenues, as that term is defined in the Indenture/ consisting primarily of amounts drawn under an
irrevocable direct-pay letter of credit issued by (the "Credit
Bank"), for the account of CIC Calavera, L.P., a California limited partnership (the
"Borrower"), in favor of the Trustee concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, or any
qualified letter of credit or other credit instrument issued in substitution therefor (such initial
letter of credit or substitute being referred to herein as the "Letter of Credit") or, under the
circumstances provided in the Indenture, under an irrevocable standby letter of credit (the
"Standby Letter of Credit") issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (the "Standby
Credit Bank). The Bonds are being issued in order to provide funds to make a loan (the
"Loan") to the Borrower pursuant to a Financing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2003 (the
"Financing Agreement"), among the Issuer, the Trustee and the Borrower, in connection with the acquisition, construction and development by the Borrower of a multifamily rental housing development (the "Project") located within the City of Carlsbad, California. The rate of interest on the Bond shall be calculated as provided in the Indenture. Until the rate of interest on this Bond is converted to a Variable Rate in the Weekly Mode, the first Reset Rate or to the Fixed Rate, each as defined in the Indenture, the rate of interest hereon shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as appropriate, for the actual number of days elapsed, and shall be a rate (the "Variable Rate"), determined by the remarketing agent appointed pursuant to the Indenture (the "Remarketing Agent"), on each Business Day (a "Variable Interest Computation Date"), for the period beginning on such day and ending on the next succeeding Business Day (each a "Variable Interest Accrual Period"). The Variable Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent on each Variable Interest Computation Date shall be that rate of interest which, if borne by the Bonds, would, in its judgment having due regard to prevailing financial market conditions, be the interest rate necessary, but which would not exceed the interest rate necessary, to produce as nearly as practicable a par bid (disregarding accrued interest) if the Bonds were sold on the first day of the next Variable Interest Accrual Period, subject to the limitations on such rate set forth in the Indenture. The determination of the Variable Rate by the Remarketing Agent shall (in the absence of manifest error) be conclusive and binding on the registered owners of the Bonds, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank, the Tender Agent, the Borrower and the Remarketing Agent. Any registered owner may obtain information on the Variable Rate by request to the Trustee.

Business Day not less than 5 days before the date of expiration of the Standby Letter of Credit
if a substitute Standby Letter of Credit (or Substitute Credit Facility) as set forth in the
Financing Agreement is not delivered in substitution thereof, unless a Standby Letter of Credit is
no longer required pursuant to the provisions of the Financing Agreement or (vi) on the first
Business Day which is at least five days following the occurrence of a Determination of
Taxability, at a purchase price equal to the principal amount thereof, or of any Authorized

Payment of the Purchase Price of any Bond so delivered shall be made by check or by wire transfer as provided in the Indenture, as designated in the Tender Notice, but only upon delivery and surrender of such Bond and due-bill, if any, to the Tender Agent on the Demand Date. No Bonds shall be so purchased or remarketed if an Event of
Default under and as defined in the Indenture, other than certain specified covenant defaults as
described in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, and no Bonds shall be so
purchased or remarketed while the Bonds bear interest at a Reset Rate or a Fixed Rate except
on a Reset Date or the Conversion Date.
.
The rate of interest on the Bonds may be established at a Variable Rate in the Weekly
Mode, a Reset Rate or Fixed Rate on any Interest Payment Date in accordance with the
procedures set forth in the Indenture. The Reset Rate or Fixed Rate shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days with twelve 30-day months, and shall be determined by the
Remarketing Agent as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee shall, upon request of any
registered owner, no* such registered owner of the Reset Rate or Fixed Rate to be in effect on
and after the Reset Date or Conversion Date. The Trustee shall give to the registered owners of
the Bonds, in the same manner that notices of redemption are given, notice of any mandatory
tender of Bonds pursuant to the Indenture, specifying the information set forth in the Indenture. If this Bond is not tendered for purchase pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, it will be deemed to have been so tendered and shall be purchased on such Weekly Date, Reset Date, or Conversion Date, such substitution date, such expiration date of the Standby Letter of Credit
or such date a Substitute Credit Facility is provided, at a price equal to the principal amount
hereof plus interest accrued to such date.
The Bonds shall be subject to optional and mandatory redemption pursuant to the terms
and conditions set forth in the Indenture.
Notice of redemption of Bonds shall be given by the Trustee to the registered owners thereof by first-class mail, as provided in the Indenture, not more than 30 days and not less than 15 days or, in the case of redemption following an acceleration of the Loan or expiration of the Letter of Credit, not less than five days before the date fixed for redemption; or in the event
A-1-3
of a failure to honor a drawing under the Letter of Credit or a repudiation of the Letter of
Credit, not less than three days before the date fixed for redemption. If this Bond is called for
redemption and payment is duly provided therefor as specified in the Indenture, interest hereon
shall cease to accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption.
If an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) shall occur, the principal of all Bonds may be declared due and payable upon the conditions, in the manner and with the effect
provided in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that in certain events such declaration and its consequences may be rescinded by the registered owners of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding.
The Bonds are issuable only as fully registered Bonds without coupons in authorized
denominations of $100,000 or any integral multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof during any
Variable Period and $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof during any Reset Period or on and
after the Conversion Date. Subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges, if any,
provided in the Indenture, Bonds may be exchanged at the corporate trust office of the Trustee
for a like aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same series of other authorized
denominations.
This Bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof, in person, or by its attorney
duly authorized in writing, at the corporate trust office of the Trustee, but only in the manner,
subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in the Indenture, and upon
surrender and cancellation of this Bond. Upon such transfer a new fully registered Bond or
Bonds, of the same series and of authorized denomination or denominations, for the same
aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor. The Trustee
shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Bond within 15 days of the
selection of Bonds for redemption or if selected for redemption. The Issuer and the Trustee may
treat the registered owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, and the Issuer and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee to execute supplemental indentures adding provisions to, or changing or eliminating any of the provisions of, the Indenture, subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture. Additional bonds on a parity with the Bonds may be issued pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.
No officer, agent or employee of the Issuer or the State of California, nor any person executing this Bond, shall in any event be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds are not a debt, nor a pledge of the faith and credit, of the Issuer, the State of California, or any of its political subdivisions and neither are they liable on the Bonds, nor are the Bonds payable out of any funds or properties other than those pledged under the Indenture for the payment thereof. The Bonds do not constitute an indebtedness within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation.
The Issuer hereby certifies that all of the conditions, things and acts required to exist, to have happened and to have been performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Bond do
exist, have happened and have been performed in due time, form and manner as required by the
Constitution and statutes of the State of California and that the amount of this Bond, together
with all other indebtedness of the Issuer, does not exceed any limit prescribed by the
Constitution or statutes of the State of California.
This Bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until the certificate of authentication hereon endorsed shall have
been manually signed by the Trustee or the Tender Agent.

The Bonds are being issued in order to provide funds to make a loan (the “Loan”) to the Borrower pursuant to a Financing Agreement, dated as of June 1,2003 (the ”Financing Agreement”), among the Issuer, the Trustee and the Borrower, in connection with the acquisition, construction and development by the Borrower of a multifamily rental housing development (the ”Project”) located within the City of Carlsbad, California. The rate of interest on the Bond shall be calculated as provided in the Indenture. Until the rate of interest on this Bond is converted to a Variable Rate in the Daily Mode, the first Reset Rate or to the Fixed Rate, each as defined in the Indenture, the rate of
interest hereon shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as appropriate, for
the actual number of days elapsed, and shall be a rate (the ”Variable Rate”), determined by the
remarketing agent appointed pursuant to the Indenture (the ”Remarketing Agent”), on the last
Business Day before Thursday of each week (a ”Variable Interest Computation Date”), for the
period beginning on such Thursday and ending on the next succeeding Wednesday (each a
”Variable Interest Accrual Period”), provided that the Variable Rate in effect on the Record
Date for any Interest Payment Date shall remain in effect from such Record Date until and
including the day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, and any change in the
Variable Rate which would otherwise take effect between such Record Date and such Interest
Payment Date shall take effect on such Interest Payment Date. The Variable Rate determined by the Remarketing Agent on each Variable Interest Computation Date shall be that rate of
interest which, if borne by the Bonds, would, in its judgment having due regard to prevailing
financial market conditions, be the interest rate necessary, but which would not exceed the
interest rate necessary, to produce as nearly as practicable a par bid (disregarding accrued
interest) if the Bonds were sold on the first day of the next Variable Interest Accrual Period,
subject to the limitations on such rate set forth in the Indenture. The determination of the
Variable Rate by the Remarketing Agent shall (in the absence of marufest error) be conclusive
and binding on the registered owners of the Bonds, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Credit Bank, the
A-2-2
Borrower and the Remarketing Agent. Any registered owner may obtain information on the
Variable Rate by request to the Trustee.
Any Bond or Authorized Denomination of principal amount thereof shall be purchased
(i) on any Business Day during a Variable Period, (ii) on any Reset Date or the Conversion
Date, (iii) on any date on which a substitute Letter of Credit or substitute Standby Letter of
Credit is to be exchanged for the then effective Letter of Credit or Standby Letter of Credit,
respectively, if such substitution, by itself, would result in a reduction or withdrawal of the
rating then in effect on the Bonds, (iv) on any date on which a Substitute Credit Facility is being
provided pursuant to the Financing Agreement, (v) on the last Business Day not less than five days before the date of expiration of the Standby Letter of Credit if a substitute Standby Letter of Credit (or Substitute Credit Facility) as set forth in the Financing Agreement is not delivered in substitution thereof unless a Standby Letter of Credit is no longer provided pursuant to the provisions of the Financing Agreement or (vi) on the first Business Day which is at least five days following the occurrence of a Determination of Taxability, as defined in the Indenture, at a purchase price equal to the principal amount thereof, or of any Authorized Denomination
thereof purchased, plus interest accrued thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (the "Purchase
Price"), upon (a) in the case of a demand purchase while the Bonds bear interest at a Variable
Rate in the Daily Mode, delivery of an irrevocable notice in the form set forth in the Indenture
including the name of the owner (or Beneficial Owner) of the relevant Bonds and the aggregate
principal amount and CUSIP number of the Bond to be tendered (a "Tender Notice") and (b) in
all cases, delivery to the Tender Agent, at or prior to 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the Demand Date (as defined in the Indenture) of such Bond (with an appropriate transfer of registration form executed in blank and in form satisfactory to the Tender Agent) and, in the
case of a Bond or units of principal amount thereof to be purchased prior to any Interest
Payment Date and after the Record Date in respect thereof, a due-bill, in a form satisfactory to
the Tender Agent, for interest due on such Interest Payment Date. Payment of the Purchase
Price of any Bond so delivered shall be made by check or by wire transfer as provided in the Indenture, as designated in the Tender Notice, but only upon delivery and surrender of such
Bond and due-bill, if any, to the Tender Agent on the Demand Date.

at a Reset Rate or a Fixed Rate except on a Reset Date or the Conversion Date.
The rate of interest on the Bonds may be established at a Variable Rate in the Daily Mode, a Reset Rate or Fixed Rate on any Interest Payment Date in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. The Reset Rate or Fixed Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days with twelve 30-day months, and shall be determined by the
Remarketing Agent as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee shall, upon request of any registered owner, now such registered owner of the Reset Rate or Fixed Rate to be in effect on and after the Reset Date or Conversion Date. The Trustee shall give to the registered owners of the Bonds, in the same manner that notices of redemption are given, notice of any mandatory tender of Bonds pursuant to the Indenture, specifying the information set forth in the Indenture.

thereof by first-class mail, as provided in the Indenture, not more than 30 days and not less

Credit, not less than three days before the date fixed for redemption. If this Bond is called for
redemption and payment is duly provided therefor as specified in the Indenture, interest hereon
shall cease to accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption.
If an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) shall occur, the principal of all Bonds may be declared due and payable upon the conditions, in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that in certain events such declaration and its consequences may be rescinded by the registered owners of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding.
The Bonds are issuable only as fully registered Bonds without coupons in authorized denominations of $100,000 or any integral multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof during any Variable Period and $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof during any Reset Period or on and after the Conversion Date.

Bond, the Trustee may, upon receipt of such indemnity, pay the Bond. Any mutilated Bond surrendered to the Trustee shall be canceled by it.

Section 3.5(5) Revocation of Notice of Redemption; Cancellation of Redemption. The Trustee shall revoke any notice of optional redemption if the requirements of Section 3.2(3) have
not been satisfied. The Trustee shall revoke any notice of optional or special mandatory

redemption shall be canceled once the Trustee has given notice of revocation. Notwithstanding

Section 3.6. Redemption Pavments. Notice of redemption having been given in the
manner provided in Section 3.5, and all conditions precedent to redemption having been
satisfied, the Bonds so called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date, and interest on the Bonds shall cease to accrue from and after the Redemption Date and the holders of the Bonds so called for redemption shall thereafter no longer have any security or benefit under this Indenture except to receive payment of the redemption price for such Bonds upon surrender of such Bonds to the Trustee. Except during any period in which the Bonds are
subject to the Book Entry System:
(i) no payment shall be made by the Trustee with respect to any Bond called
for redemption until such Bond is presented for payment or cancellation or the Trustee
receives the items required by Section 2.11 with respect to any mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed Bond; and
(ii) if less than the entire principal amount of a Bond is called for redemption,
the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon the
surrender of such Bond to the Trustee, without charge by the Issuer or the Trustee to the
Bondholder, in exchange for the unredeemed principal amount of such Bond, a new
Bond or Bonds of the same interest rate, maturity and term, in any Authorized
Denomination, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed balance of the
principal amount of the Bond so surrendered.
During any period in which the Bonds are subject to the Book Entry System, the rules,
regulations and practices governing the Book Entry System shall govern whether and the extent
to which the Trustee shall make payments on any Bond called for redemption with or without surrender of the Bond (or portion of the Bond) to be redeemed, and the circumstances (if any)
under which the Issuer shall be required to execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, a new Bond in exchange for the unredeemed portion of any Bond called for redemption
in part. All moneys held by or on behalf of the Trustee for the redemption of particular Bonds shall be held in trust for the account of the holders of the Bonds to be redeemed, as provided in
and in accordance with Section 4.14. CUSIP number identification with appropriate dollar
amounts for each CUSIP number also shall accompany all redemption payments.
43
Section 3.7. Selection of Bonds to be Redeemed Upon Partial Redemption of Bonds. If
less than all of the Outstanding Bonds are called for redemption (other than mandatory sinking fund redemption), Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee on a reasonably
proportionate basis, in minimum amounts of $5,000, from, among all the then existing
maturities of the Bonds Outstanding. If less than all of the Outstanding Bonds are called for
redemption, Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee on a reasonably
proportionate basis, in minimum amounts of $5,000, from among all the then existing maturities
of the Outstanding Bonds. "Reasonably proportionate basis" shall be determined and
effectuated as nearly as practicable by multiplying the total amount of money available to redeem Bonds by the ratio which the principal amount of Bonds Outstanding in each maturity bears to the principal amount of all of the Bonds Outstanding, and within a maturity by lot or in such other manner as the Trustee shall, in its sole discretion, deem fair. In the case of an
optional redemption from an optional prepayment of the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall
make its selection immediately following receipt of notice of the optional prepayment. In the
case of a special mandatory redemption, the Trustee shall make such selection immediately
following:
(i) a transfer of funds pursuant to paragraph (v) of Section 4.4(2) with
respect to a special mandatory redemption under Section 3.3(4); or
(ii) receipt of funds with respect to a special mandatory redemption under
Section 3.3(4) or 3.3(5).
With respect to any special mandatory redemption in part pursuant to Section 3.3(2),
3.3(4) or 3.3(5), the sufficiency of the scheduled cash flow from the monthly payments to be
made under the Mortgage Note and Investment Income with respect to the General Account to
pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds and the Third Party Fees (to the extent included
in the Mortgage Note Rate) when due and payable following such redemption, shall, if
necessary, be established by a then current Cash Flow Projection which shall be verified by a
Verification Report (upon each of which the Trustee may rely), each prepared and delivered to the Trustee, the Credit Provider and the Loan Servicer, at the Borrower's expense, at least 15
days prior to the Redemption Date. Absent a Cash Flow Projection, the Bonds to be redeemed
shall be redeemed proportionately. In the event that any Bonds of the same maturity are to be redeemed in part, the Trustee shall assign to each Bond then Outstanding a distinctive number for each $5,000 of the principal amount of such Bond and from the numbers so assigned to such Bonds, the Trustee shall randomly select as many numbers as, at $5,000 for each number, shall
equal the principal amount of such Bonds to be redeemed. The Bonds within a maturity that
are to be redeemed shall be the Bonds to which are assigned the numbers selected by the
Trustee, but only so much of the principal amount of each such Bond of a denomination of more
than $5,000 shall be redeemed as shall equal $5,000 for each number assigned to it and so
selected. Bonds may be redeemed only in Authorized Denominations. For the purposes of this
Section 3.7, Bonds which have theretofore been selected for redemption shall not be deemed Outstanding. If there is called for redemption less than the entire principal amount of a Bond, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon surrender of such Bond, without charge to the holder of such Bond, in exchange for the unredeemed principal amount of such Bond, Bonds of the same maturity, interest rate, principal amount, series and
tenor in any Authorized Denomination in the amount of the unredeemed principal of the surrendered Bond.
Section 3.8. Purchase of Bonds In Lieu of Redemution. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, and subject to the provisions of Section 3.9, if at any time Available
Moneys are held in any Fund or Account to be used to redeem Bonds, in lieu of such redemption the Borrower may, in writing and with the written consent of the Credit Provider,
44
direct the Trustee to use part or all of such moneys to purchase Bonds which would otherwise
be subject to redemption from such moneys. The purchase price of such Bonds (excluding accrued interest, but including any brokerage and other charges) shall not exceed the applicable redemption price of the Bonds which would be redeemed but for the operation of this Section 3.8, with accrued interest on any such Bond to be paid from the same Fund or Account from which accrued interest would be paid upon the redemption of such Bond. Any such purchase must be completed prior to the time notice would otherwise be required to be given to redeem the Bonds and may not occur, without the consent of the Trustee, after a Record Date. All
Bonds so purchased shall be canceled by the Trustee and the face amount of the Bonds so
purchased shall be applied as a credit against the Issuer's obligation to redeem such Bonds
from such moneys. Savings resulting from the purchase of Bonds at less than their respective redemption prices shall be used to purchase or redeem additional Bonds to the extent permitted
by this Indenture. The Borrower may, at the expense of the Borrower, direct the Trustee to
request the submission of tenders following notice to Bondholders requesting such submission
prior to making the purchases authorized by this Section 3.8. Notice of acceptance of tenders
shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all registered Bondholders, or in the case of
Book-Entry Bonds, to DTC, or any successor Securities Depository. The Borrower may specify
the maximum and minimum period of time which shall transpire between the date upon which
such notice is to be given and the date upon which such tenders are to be accepted. No tenders
shall be considered or accepted at any price exceeding the price specified in this Section 3.8.
The Trustee shall accept bids with the lowest price and in the event the moneys available for
purchase pursuant to such tenders are not sufficient to permit acceptance of all tenders and if
there are tenders at an equal price above the amount of moneys available for purchase, then the Trustee shall select by lot, in such manner as it shall determine in its discretion, the Bonds tendered which shall be purchased.
Section 3.9. Cancellation of Bonds. All Bonds which have been redeemed, paid, retired
or delivered to the Trustee for exchange shall not be reissued but shall be canceled and
destroyed by the Trustee.

otherwise cause the interest payable on the Bonds to be includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes; and
(ii) enforce or cause to be enforced all obligations of the Borrower under the
Regulatory Agreement in accordance with its terms and seek to cause the Borrower to
correct any violation of the Regulatory Agreement within a reasonable period after any

owner of Bonds is a "substantial user" of the facilities financed with the Bonds or a
"related person" within the meaning of the Code;
58 3\23
(v) not take any action or permit or suffer any action to be taken if the result

(vi) require the Borrower to agree, pursuant to the terms and provisions of
the Financing Agreement, not to commit any act and not to make any use of the
proceeds of the Bonds, or any other moneys which may be deemed to be proceeds of the
Bonds pursuant to the Code, which would cause the Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code, and to comply with the requirements of the Code throughout the term of the Bonds.
In furtherance of the covenants in this Section 6.12, the Issuer and the Borrower shall execute, deliver and comply with the provisions of the Tax Certificate, which is by this reference
incorporated into this Indenture and made a part of this Indenture as if set forth in this

Section 6.12(2) Trustee's Covenants. The Trustee agrees that it will invest funds held under this Indenture in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Tax Certificate (this covenant shall extend throughout the term of the Bonds, to all Funds and Accounts created
under this Indenture and all moneys on deposit to the credit of any Fund or Account). The Trustee covenants to and for the benefit of the Bondholders that, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or of any other instrument, it will not make or cause to be made any investment or other use of the moneys in the Funds or Accounts which would cause the
Bonds to be classified as "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Sections 103(b) and 148 of the
Code or would cause the interest on the Bonds to be includable in gross income for federal
income tax purposes; provided that the Trustee shall be deemed to have complied with such
requirements and shall have no liability to the extent it reasonably follows the written directions
of the Borrower, the Issuer or the Rebate Analyst. This covenant shall extend, throughout the
term of the Bonds, to all Funds created under this Indenture and all moneys on deposit to the
credit of any Fund. Pursuant to this covenant, with respect to the investments of the Funds and
Accounts under this Indenture, the Trustee obligates itself to comply throughout the term of the
issue of the Bonds with the requirements of Sections 103(b) and 148 of the Code; provided that
the Trustee shall be deemed to have complied with such requirements and shall have no
liability to the extent it reasonably follows the written directions of the Borrower, the Issuer or the Rebate Analyst. The Trustee further covenants that should the Issuer or the Borrower file
with the Trustee (it being understood that neither the Issuer nor the Borrower has an obligation
to so file), or should the Trustee receive, an Opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that any
proposed investment or other use of proceeds of the Bonds would cause the Bonds to become
"arbitrage bonds," then the Trustee will comply with any written instructions of the Borrower or
Bond Counsel regarding such investment or use so as to prevent the Bonds from becoming
"arbitrage bonds," and the Trustee will bear no liability to the Issuer, the Borrower, the Bondholders or the Credit Provider for investments made in accordance with such instructions.

remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem most effective to protect and
enforce such rights or to perform any of its duties under this Indenture.
Section 9.5. Remedies Not Exclusive. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.9, no right or
remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee (or to the Bondholders) by the terms of this
Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, but each and every such
right and remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given to the Trustee or to the Bondholders under this Indenture or under the Financing Agreement, the Regulatory Agreement or the Credit Facility or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
Section 9.6. Waiver. To the extent not precluded by law, the Trustee, upon notice to and
with the prior written consent of the Credit Provider (unless a Wrongful Dishonor has occurred
and is continuing) may waive any Event of Default under this Indenture and its consequences
and, if the Trustee has accelerated payment of the Bonds, rescind the declaration of acceleration
(unless precluded by Section 9.2(1) or unless clause (b) following shall be applicable) and shall
do so upon the written request of (a) the Credit Provider or (b) Bondholders owning not less
than 51% in aggregate principal amount of Bonds then Outstanding, provided, however, that
there shall be no such waiver or rescission unless the principal and interest on the Bonds in

the waiver, (b) the Rating Agency then rating the Bonds is notified and the Trustee gives written

Section 9.8. Delav or Omission. No delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy
provided in this Indenture upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or
shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence in it and every
such right and remedy may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient.

respective dates upon which they became due at the rate or rates borne by the Bonds, to
the extent permitted by law, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in

preference or priority of principal over interest or of interest over principal, or of any

9.12, such moneys shall be applied at such times, and from time to time, as the Trustee
determines, having due regard for the amount of such moneys available for application, the likelihood of additional moneys becoming available for such application in the future, and
potential expenses relating to the exercise of any remedy or right conferred on the Trustee by
this Indenture. Whenever the Trustee applies such moneys, it shall fix the date (which shall be an Interest Payment Date unless it deems an earlier date more suitable) upon which such application is to be made, and upon such date interest on the amounts of principal to be paid on such date shall cease to accrue. The Trustee shall give such notice as it may deem appropriate
of the deposit with it of any such moneys and of the fixing of any such date, and shall not be required to make payment to the owner of any Bond until such Bond is presented to the Trustee for appropriate endorsement or for cancellation if fully paid. Whenever the principal of and

such services or expenses. The Borrower's failure to pay amounts owed to the Trustee shall not
excuse the performance of its obligations under this Indenture and under the other Bond
Documents. The Trustee recognizes that all fees, charges and other compensation to which it
may be entitled under this Indenture are required to be paid by the Borrower under the
Financing Agreement, and, accordingly, the Trustee agrees that except for moneys that the

any Mortgage Loan Document or if an event has occurred and is continuing which, with notice
or the passage of time or both, would constitute such a default, such appointment shall be made by the Credit Provider. If, in the case of resignation or removal of the Trustee, no successor is
appointed within 30 days after the notice of resignation or within 30 days after removal, as the
case may be, then, in the case of a resignation, the resigning Trustee shall appoint a successor with the prior written consent of the Issuer and the Credit Provider or apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee and, in the case of a removal, the Issuer shall have the right to appoint a successor Trustee or to apply to a court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

successor Trustee.
Section 10.10. Transfer of Rights and ProPertv to Successor Trustee. Upon the execution
of the written acceptance provided for in Section 10.9, the successor Trustee shall, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, become fully vested with all moneys, estates, properties, rights,

Indenture as such Trustee, but the former Trustee shall nevertheless, on the written request of
the Issuer, the Credit Provider or the successor Trustee, execute, acknowledge and deliver such
instruments of conveyance and further assurance and do such other things as may be
reasonably required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor
Trustee all the right, title and interest of the predecessor Trustee in and to any properties held by it under this Indenture, and shall pay over, assign and deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property subject to the trusts and conditions set forth in this Indenture. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by the successor Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to the successor Trustee any such moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers and duties, any and all such deeds, conveyances and

that the person signing such instrument acknowledged before him the execution of such
instrument. The Trustee may rely on such an instrument of Bondholders unless and until the
Trustee receives written notice that the original of such instrument is no longer valid. In the
event that the Trustee shall receive conflicting directions from two groups of Bondholders, each
with combined holdings of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of all Bonds then Outstanding, the directions given by the group of Bondholders which hold the largest percentage of Bonds Outstanding shall be controlling and the Trustee shall follow such directions as elsewhere required in this Indenture.

Upon the request of the Trustee or of Bondholders owning not less than 51% in aggregate principal amount of Bonds then Outstanding, the Issuer shall

Default has occurred and be continuing, subject to the Credit Provider's right to approve, the
Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. The Issuer shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver all such instruments as may be required by any such co-trustee or
separate trustee for more fully confirming such title, rights, powers, trusts, duties and
obligations to such co-trustee or separate trustee. Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to
the extent permitted by law or any applicable contract, be appointed subject to the following
terms:
(i) All rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
upon the trustees shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the
Trustee, or by the Trustee and such co-trustee, or separate trustee, jointly, as shall be
provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the
extent that, under the 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 act or acts shall be performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee.
(ii) Any request in writing by the Trustee to any co-trustee or separate trustee
to take or to refrain from taking any action under this Indenture shall be sufficient
78
warrant for the taking, or the refraining from taking, of such action by such co-trustee or separate trustee.
(iii) Any co-trustee or separate trustee to the extent permitted by law may
delegate to the Trustee the exercise of any right, power, trust, duty or obligation,
discretionary or otherwise.
(iv) The Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing, with the
concurrence of the Issuer evidenced by a resolution, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section 10.12(1), and, in
case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have power to
accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the
concurrence of the Issuer. Upon the request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall join with the
Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal; a successor to any co-
trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 10.12(1).
(v) No trustee under this Indenture shall be personally liable by reason of
any act or omission of any co-trustee or separate trustee under this Indenture.

trustee, the co-trustee or separate trustee shall be vested with the pledge and assignment of the
Security and with such rights, powers, duties, trusts or obligations as shall be specified in the
instrument of appointment, jointly with the Trustee (except insofar as local law makes it
necessary for any such co-trustee or separate trustee to act alone), subject to all the terms of this
Indenture. Every such acceptance shall be filed with the Trustee, the Issuer, the Credit
Provider, the Loan Servicer and the Borrower.
Section 10.12(2) Effect of Death, Incapacity, Resignation or Removal of Co-Trustee or
Separate Trustee. In case any co-trustee or separate trustee dies, becomes incapable of acting, resigns or is removed, the pledge and assignment of the Security and all rights, powers, trusts,
duties and obligations of the co-trustee or separate trustee shall, so far as permitted by law, vest
in and be exercised by the Trustee unless and until a successor co-trustee or separate trustee is
appointed in the same manner as provided for with respect to the appointment of a successor
Trustee pursuant to Section 10.8.
Section 10.12(3) Approval of the Issuer. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Article X, no successor trustee or any co-trustee or separate trustee shall assume its
duties under this Indenture without the prior written approval of the Issuer (unless the Issuer is
in default under this Indenture, in which case a successor trustee, co-trustee or separate trustee
may be appointed by the Trustee without the consent of the Issuer, but with the prior written
consent of the Credit Provider).

the Loan Servicer or the Credit Provider, all such financing statements as may be required for
the purposes specified in the preceding sentence. Upon the filing of any such financing
statement the Trustee shall immediately notify the Issuer, the Borrower, the Loan Servicer and the Credit Provider that the same has been accomplished. If direction for filing is given by the Loan Servicer or the Credit Provider, the Trustee shall file all financing statements in
accordance with such directions.
Section 10.14. Servicing; the Mortgage -- Loan. The Issuer and the Trustee acknowledge
that on and after the Conversion Date, the Loan Servicer, as servicer of the Mortgage Loan, will
be responsible to the Credit Provider for the ongoing servicing and administering of the
Mortgage Loan, but that the Credit Provider, in its discretion, may contract with another
servicer designated by the Credit Provider to perform such functions for the Credit Provider.
Any servicing contracts or arrangements by the Credit Provider with such loan servicer for servicing the Mortgage Loan shall constitute a contractual obligation only between the Credit Provider and such loan servicer and neither the Trustee nor the Issuer will be deemed to be a party to such arrangements nor have any claim, right, duty, obligation or liability with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan.
Section 10.15. Disclosure Agreement. The Borrower and the Trustee shall enter into a
Disclosure Agreement to provide for the continuing disclosure of information about the Bonds, the Borrower and other matters as specifically provided for in such agreement pursuant to Rule 15~2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Trustee is authorized and directed to
enter into the Disclosure Agreement and to make information public as provided in the Disclosure Agreement. Under the Disclosure Agreement, the Trustee shall act as the agent of
the Borrower and not as the agent of the Issuer. The consent of the Issuer shall be required to
each amendment to, or modification of, the Disclosure Agreement, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. The duties and obligations of the Trustee under the Disclosure Agreement shall be as set forth in the Disclosure Agreement, and the Trustee shall be responsible only for the express duties and obligations set forth in the Disclosure Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Trustee related to the Disclosure Agreement shall be the responsibility of and be paid by the Borrower. A default under any Disclosure Agreement shall
not be a default under this Indenture, the Financing Agreement, any of the other Bond
Documents or any of the Mortgage Loan Documents. However, the Trustee, at the written
request of any underwriter of the Bonds required to comply with Securities and Exchange
Commission Rule 15c-2-12(b)(5) or the holders of at least 25% aggregate principal amount of
Outstanding Bonds, shall, but only to the extent indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by
any Bondholder or Beneficial Owner, may take such actions as may be necessary and
appropriate, including seeking mandamus or specific performance by court order, to cause the
Borrower to comply with its obligations under Section 7.2(12) of the Financing Agreement.

Credit Provider. Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, a supplement or
amendment or other document described under this Article XI which affects any rights or obligations of the Borrower shall not become effective unless and until the Borrower (if the

be effective until the Issuer and the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such supplement or amendment will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income, for federal income tax purposes, of the interest payable on the Bonds. Such Opinion of Bond Counsel shall be addressed to, or a reliance letter shall be delivered to, the Credit Provider.

indenture, may be prepared by the Issuer, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered without cost to the Bondholders, upon surrender for cancellation of such Bonds in equal aggregate
