ARTICLE THREE

CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

Section 3.01.

Initial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the initial contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05, the Owner Trustee will issue the Ownership Certificate to the Initial Holder.

Section 3.02.

The Certificates. The Class [ ] Certificates shall be [Book Entry Certificates, registered in minimum notional balance denominations evidencing Percentage Interests of not less than [ ]%]. The Ownership Certificate shall initially be issued as a single certificate in definitive, fully registered form and shall initially be registered in the name of the Initial Holder. No Ownership Certificate shall be issued in authorized denominations of less than a 100% Percentage Interest in such Certificate. Each Certificate shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates.

Upon issuance of the Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall authenticate the Certificates in accordance with the written instructions of the prospective transferee thereof. Neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Owner Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of any such Certificate, the Owner Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Certificates as Certificateholders. The Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or may be produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Owner Trustee, as evidenced by its execution thereof.

A transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee’s acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.

By acceptance of a Certificate or interest therein, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such Certificate or interest acknowledges the limitations on the rights of Certificateholders as provided herein, including without limitation the provisions of Section 4.04, and agrees that it will be bound by the provisions hereof.

Section 3.03.

Authentication of Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificates to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by its co-trustee, without further trust action by the Depositor, in authorized denominations. No Certificate shall entitle its Holder to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or the Owner Trustee’s authenticating agent, by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

Section 3.04.

Limitations on Transfer of the Certificates.

[To be modified as applicable]

(a)

Each Prospective Owner of a Book-Entry Certificate other than the Depositor or an affiliate thereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted, and each Prospective Owner of a Definitive Certificate other than the Depositor or an affiliate thereof shall represent and warrant in writing, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and any of their respective successors that:

(i)

Such Person is duly authorized to purchase the Certificates and its purchase of investments having the characteristics of the Certificates is authorized under, and not directly or indirectly in contravention of, any law, charter, trust instrument or other operative document, investment guidelines or list of permissible or impermissible investments that is applicable to the investor; and

(ii)

Such Person understands that each holder of a Certificate, by virtue of its acceptance thereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement.

(iii)

Such Person understands that each holder of an Ownership Certificate is a REIT, a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or a Disregarded Entity.

(b)

Each Prospective Owner of a Book-Entry Certificate shall be deemed to have represented and warranted, and each Prospective Owner of a Definitive Certificate and each Prospective Owner of a Certificate upon initial issuance, shall represent and warrant in writing, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and any of their respective successors stating that transfer of such Certificate is subject to certain restrictions and referring prospective purchasers of the Certificates to this Section 3.04 with respect to such restrictions and stating that:

(i)

Such Person is a qualified institutional buyer (a “QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and is aware that the seller of such Certificate may be relying on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A and is acquiring such Certificate for its own account or for the account of one or more qualified institutional buyers for whom it is authorized to act.

(ii)

It understands that such Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act, and that, if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only to a person which the seller reasonably believes is a QIB that is purchasing such Certificates for its own account or for the account of a QIB to which notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, in each case in compliance with the requirements of the Trust Agreement.

In the event that a transfer of a Definitive Certificate is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the prospective transferee shall certify to the Owner Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D.

In the event that a Certificate is transferred to a Person that does not meet the requirements of this Section 3.04, such transfer will be of no force and effect, will be void ab initio, and will not operate to transfer any rights to such Person, notwithstanding any instructions to the contrary to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or any intermediary; and such Person shall not be entitled to any distributions on such Certificate for as long as such Person is the Holder of such Certificate and the Owner Trustee shall have the right to compel such Person to transfer such Certificate to a Person who does meet the requirements of this Section 3.04.

The Owner Trustee on behalf of the Depositor (and with the Depositor’s cooperation) shall provide to any Holder of a Certificate (or Certificate Owner) and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder (or Certificate Owner), information regarding the Certificates, the Loan Assets and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. Each Holder of a Definitive Certificate (or Certificate Owner) desiring to effect such a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with federal and state securities laws and any other restriction specified in this Section 3.04.

(c)

With respect to transfers of ERISA-Restricted Certificates, each Prospective Owner of a Definitive Certificate and each Prospective Owner of a Certificate upon initial issuance shall (i) represent and warrant in writing, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit E, to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and any of their respective successors that (A) such Prospective Owner is not, and on the date of transfer of such Certificate and while it holds such Certificate will not be, and on such date and during such period will not be investing the funds of, an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code and (B) such Prospective Owner is not an entity, including an insurance company separate account or general account, whose underlying assets include plan assets of such an employee benefit plan or other plan by reason of the plan’s investment in the entity or otherwise under ERISA, or (ii) deliver to the Owner Trustee an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Owner Trustee to the effect that the purchase and holding of any such Certificate will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, will not result in the assets of the Trust created by the Trust Agreement being deemed to be “plan assets” and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Owner Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Seller to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Trust Agreement; provided, however, that the Owner Trustee will not require such certificate or opinion in the event that, as a result of a change of law or otherwise, counsel satisfactory to the Owner Trustee has rendered an opinion to the effect that the purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Plan or a Person that is purchasing or holding such a Certificate with the assets of a Plan will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Each Prospective Owner of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit E. No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is also a Definitive Certificate shall be made to any Person unless the Owner Trustee has received a certificate from the transferee in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit E to the foregoing effect.

(d)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transfer of any Ownership Certificate shall be made to any Person unless the Owner Trustee has received a certificate (i) from the transferee in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D, to the effect that such Person is a QIB and is aware that the seller of such Certificate may be relying on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A and is acquiring such Certificate for its own account or for the account of one or more QIBs for whom it is authorized to act or (ii) to the effect that the transferee is the Depositor or an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Depositor and is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act, in each case stating that such person understands that such Ownership bears a legend substantially similar to the legend provided in Exhibit A hereto.

(f)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no transfer of any Certificate shall be made to any Person that intends to issue interests in or obligations secured by such Certificate unless the Owner Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such transfer and subsequent issuance would not result in the Trust’s becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

Section 3.05.

Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided; provided, however, that no Ownership Certificate shall be issued in any such transfer and exchange representing less than a 100% Percentage Interest in such Certificate; and provided, further, that no Ownership Certificate shall be issued in any such transfer and exchange except in accordance with the provisions and conditions set forth Section 3.04. The Administrator is hereby appointed as the initial Certificate Registrar.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09 and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.04, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause its authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of a Holder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09.

Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Owner Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

Section 3.06.

Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and upon certification provided by the Holder of such Certificate that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Relevant UCC have been met, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Owner Trustee or the Owner Trustee’s authenticating agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 3.07.

Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Section 3.08.

Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Master Servicer and the Depositor, within [ ] days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Master Servicer or the Depositor, a list, in such form as the Master Servicer or the Depositor may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders or one or more Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than [ ]% of the Voting Interests of the Certificates apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within [ ] Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit the Certificate Registrar from providing information or documentation, including documentary evidence of identity, to the parties hereto or to any governmental agency requesting such pursuant to statute or regulation.

Section 3.09.

Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee shall maintain in [ ] an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee in respect of the Certificates and the Operative Documents may be served. The Owner Trustee initially designates the Administrator’s office in [ ] as its office for such purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor and to the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

Section 3.10.

Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section 5.02 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee or the Depositor may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee or the Depositor determines that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Paying Agent initially shall be the Administrator (who is hereby appointed as Paying Agent), and any co-paying agent chosen by the Depositor and acceptable to the Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon [ ] days’ written notice to the Owner Trustee. In the event that the Administrator shall no longer be the Paying Agent, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Depositor shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Depositor to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that, as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 8.01 shall apply to the Owner Trustee if it is acting the role of Paying Agent, for so long as the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 3.11.

Book-Entry Certificates. The Class IO Certificates will be issued in the form of typewritten certificates or global certificates representing Book-Entry Certificates, to be delivered to, or to the Administrator as custodian for, The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by or on behalf of the Trust. Such Book-Entry Certificate or Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and except as provided in Section 3.13, no Certificate Owner will receive a Definitive Certificate representing such Certificate Owner’s interest in such Book-Entry Certificate. So long as any Book-Entry Certificates are outstanding, unless and until definitive, fully registered Certificates (the “Definitive Certificates”) have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.13:

(a)

The provisions of this Section shall be in full force and effect;

(b)

The Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Agreement (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Certificates and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates and shall have no obligation to the Certificate Owners;

(c)

To the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall control;

(d)

The rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Pursuant to the Certificate Depository Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.13, the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants; and

(e)

Whenever this Agreement requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Book-Entry Certificates evidencing a specified percentage of the Voting Interests thereof, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Certificate Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Book-Entry Certificates and has delivered such instructions to the Owner Trustee.

Section 3.12.

Notices to Clearing Agency. So long as any Book-Entry Certificates are outstanding, whenever a notice or other communication to a Certificateholder is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.13, the Owner Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Certificateholders to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligations to the Certificate Owners.

Section 3.13.

Definitive Certificates. So long as any Book-Entry Certificates are outstanding, if (i) the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates and the Issuer is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Issuer at its option advises the Owner Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Indenture, Certificate Owners representing beneficial interests aggregating at least a majority of the Voting Rights advise the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interest of the Certificate Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Certificate Owners and the Owner Trustee of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of the Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Owner Trustee of the typewritten Certificate or Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Owner Trustee shall execute and authenticate the Definitive Certificates in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. Neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Owner Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders. The Definitive Certificates shall be issued in definitive, fully registered form and shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Owner Trustee, as evidenced by its execution thereof.

ARTICLE FIVE

APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

Section 5.01.

Certificate Distribution Account. All of the right, title and interest of the Trust in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof shall be held for the benefit of the Owners and such other persons entitled to distributions therefrom. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trust for the benefit of the Owners.

The Certificate Distribution Account shall be subject to and established and maintained in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections [7.02 (a)(iv)] and [7.05] (d) thereof.

Section 5.02.

Application of Trust Funds.

(a)

On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to the Certificateholders from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Distribution Account the distributions provided in Section [7.05] of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date. All distributions of interest on any Class of IO Certificates, and all distributions of amounts due on or in respect of the Ownership Certificate, shall be made pro rata to the Certificateholders of such Class entitled thereto.

(b)

On the Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall send or cause the Trust to send to each Certificateholder the statement or statements provided to the Indenture Trustee by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section [5.27] of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date.

(c)

In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to an Owner, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Owner in accordance with this Section. The Trust is hereby authorized and directed to direct the Paying Agent to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trust from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to an Owner shall be treated as cash distributed to such Owner at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If the amount withheld was not withheld from actual distributions, the Trust may, at its option, (i) require the Owner to reimburse the Trust for such withholding (and each Owner agrees to reimburse the Trust promptly following such request) or (ii) reduce any subsequent distributions by the amount of such withholding. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Owner), the Trust may in its sole discretion direct the Paying Agent to withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c). In the event that an Owner wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Trust shall reasonably cooperate with such Owner in making such claim so long as such Owner agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

Section 5.03.

Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.01(d), distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions at least [ ] Business Days prior to such Distribution Date, or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such holder appearing in the Certificate Register; provided, that, a Certificateholder shall only be entitled to receive distributions by wire transfer if such Certificateholder is the registered Holder of Certificates having an initial aggregate principal amount equal to or in excess of $[ ] or a Percentage Interest equal to or in excess of [ ]%, and in all other cases by check mailed to each such Certificateholder at such Holder’s address appearing in the Certificate Register.

Section 5.04.

Segregation of Moneys; No Interest. Subject to Sections 5.01 and 5.02, moneys received by the Owner Trustee hereunder and deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account will be segregated and shall be invested in Permitted Investments at the direction of the Depositor. The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for payment of any interest in respect of such moneys.

Section 5.05.

Tax Administration. [The Owner Trustee, upon instruction from the Depositor, shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust, including Internal Revenue Service Form [1041] as required for a [Grantor Trust]. In addition, the Owner Trustee shall deliver or shall cause to be delivered to the Certificateholders such information, reports or statements as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required to enable the Certificateholders to prepare their federal and state income tax returns. In no event shall the Owner Trustee be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders arising out of the application of any tax law, including federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) except for any such liability, cost or expense attributable to any act or omission by the Owner Trustee in breach of its obligations under this Agreement.]

[The Trust shall deliver or shall cause to be delivered to the holder of the Ownership Certificate such information, reports or statements as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required to enable the holder of the Ownership Certificate to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust’s characterization for tax purposes as a Disregarded Entity so long as there is only one holder of the Ownership Certificate, no federal income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (i) the Trust shall receive an Opinion of Counsel that, based on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof, the Code requires such a filing or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return. In the event that the Trust is required to file tax returns and applicable law requires an Owner to sign such documents, the Trust shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Trust and shall remit such returns to the holder of the Ownership Certificate required to sign such return under applicable law (or if the holder of the Ownership Certificate no longer beneficially owns the Trust, the beneficial owner designated for such purpose by the holder of the Ownership Certificate to the Trust in writing) at least five days before such returns are due to be filed. The holder of the Ownership Certificate (or such designee beneficial owner, as applicable) shall promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Trust and the Trust shall file or shall cause to have filed such returns with the appropriate tax authorities. In no event shall the Owner Trustee, Trust or the holder of the Ownership Certificate (or such designee beneficial owner, as applicable) be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust or the Noteholders arising out of the application of any tax law, including federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) except for any such liability, cost or expense attributable to any act or omission by the Trust or the holder of the Ownership Certificate (or such designee owner, as applicable), as the case may be, in breach of its obligations under this Agreement.

The Notes shall be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes. For purposes of accruing OID, market discount, or amortizable bond premium, it is assumed that the Notes will have prepaid in full at the end of the Revolving Period so as to minimize the yield thereon. At the end of the Revolving Period, the Notes shall be treated as having been reissued in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1272-1(c)(6) for purposes of accruing OID, market discount, or amortizable bond premium, and a prepayment assumption will, at that time, apply to the Notes. The applicable prepayment assumption will be provided by the Depositor.]

Subject to Article Four and in accordance with the terms of the Operative Documents, the Owners may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust but only to the extent consistent with the limited purpose of the Trust. Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Owners pursuant to Article Four.

(b)

The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any Operative Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Operative Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

(c)

Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or under any Operative Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Owners requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Owners received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within [ ] days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Operative Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and, subject to Section 7.01, shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

(d)

In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any Operative Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Owners requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within [ ] days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Operative Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and, subject to Section 7.01, shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

Section 6.04.

No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement, any Operative Document or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any Operative Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to record this Agreement or any Operative Document. The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Estate that result from actions by, or claims against, the Owner Trustee solely in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust Estate.

Section 6.05.

No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the Operative Documents and (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03.

Section 6.06.

Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (a) that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.03 or (b) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would result in the Trust’s becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. The Owners shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section.

Section 10.05.

Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within [ ] days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03.

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

(b)

No trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

(c)

The Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

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

An amendment shall not be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder and no opinion referred to in the preceding proviso shall be required to be delivered if the Person requesting the amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency stating that the amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the respective ratings then assigned to each Class of Securities. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, an opinion shall be required with respect to tax matters as set forth in this paragraph.

This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor and the Owner Trustee, with prior written notice to each Rating Agency, with the consent of the Holders (as defined in the Indenture) of Notes evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes and the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of the Certificates, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, distributions that shall be required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes and the Voting Interests of the Certificates required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the holders of all the outstanding Securities affected thereby; and provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Trust to be subject to an entity level tax for federal income tax purposes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of Sections 2.03 or 4.01 hereof may be amended in any manner unless (i) 100% of the Noteholders have consented in writing thereto, (ii) the Rating Agencies have consented in writing thereto or (iii) the Notes have been paid in full and the Indenture has been discharged.

Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Owner Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders or Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any other Operative Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State.

Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Owner Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

In connection with the execution of any amendment to this Trust Agreement or any amendment of any other agreement to which the Issuer is a party, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment is authorized or permitted by the Operative Documents and that all conditions precedent in the Operative Documents for the execution and delivery thereof by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, have been satisfied.

Re:

This representation and warranty is delivered pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Trust Agreement dated as of [ ] (the “Agreement”), between HMB Acceptance Corp., as depositor and [ ], as owner trustee, in connection with the transfer by [ ] (the “Trust”) to the undersigned] [the [transferor] to the undersigned] as beneficial owner (the “Beneficial Owner”) of a 100% Percentage Interest in the Ownership Certificate. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this document have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

The Beneficial Owner hereby certifies that it has received a copy of the Agreement and that it understands the restrictions on transferability of the Ownership Certificate set forth in Section 3.03 of the Agreement and the indemnity provisions set forth in Section 7.02 of the Agreement. In connection with the transfer of the Ownership Certificate to the Beneficial Owner, the Beneficial Owner represents and warrants that:

(1) The Beneficial Owner either (i) qualifies for taxation as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) within the meaning of Sections 856 and 857 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (ii) is a qualified REIT subsidiary within the meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code (a “Qualified REIT Subsidiary”) or (iii) is an entity (a “Disregarded Entity”) that is both (A) solely owned by an entity described in (i) or (ii) and (B) is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner within the meaning of Section 301.7701-2(c)(2) of the Treasury Regulations..

(2) The Beneficial Owner hereby agrees to be subject to the indemnification provisions set out in Section 7.02 of the Agreement, and hereby warrants that the Beneficial Owner shall indemnify the Trust for any income tax imposed upon the Trust due to the Beneficial Owner’s failure to qualify as a REIT, a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or a Disregarded Entity at any time at which such Beneficial Owner owns the Ownership Certificate.

(3) The Beneficial Owner hereby agrees to be subject to the provisions governing events of default set out in the Indenture between [ ] (the “Trust”), as issuer, and [ ], as indenture trustee, dated as of [ ].

(4) The Beneficial Owner hereby agrees to notify the Trust within sixty (60) days of the date on which the Beneficial Owner discovers that it has failed to qualify as a REIT, a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or a Disregarded Entity at any time at which the Beneficial Owner owns the Ownership Certificate.

(5) The Beneficial Owner is not, and on _________ [date of transfer] will not be, an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement subject to Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or Section 4975 of the Code or any substantially similar applicable law (collectively, a “Plan”) or a person acting on behalf of or investing the assets of any such Plan to acquire the Ownership Certificate.

(6) The Beneficial Owner hereby acknowledges that under the terms of the Agreement, no transfer of the Ownership Certificate shall be permitted to be made to any person unless the Certificate Registrar has received a certificate from such transferee to the effect that such transferee (i) is not a Plan and is not using the assets of any Plan to acquire the Ownership Certificate and (ii) is a REIT, a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or a Disregarded Entity.

(7) The Beneficial Owner will not transfer the Ownership Certificate to any person or entity (i) as to which the Purchaser has reason to believe does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this affidavit, and (ii) without obtaining from the prospective Purchaser an affidavit substantially in this form and providing to the Certificate Registrar a written statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F to the Agreement.

The Holder of the Ownership Certificate will not take any action or inaction that would cause the Trust to be subject to any United States federal income taxation.
