(l)  The Bank shall be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, or to take any other action other than the giving of notices, which in its opinion may require it to incur any out-of-pocket expense or any liability unless it shall be furnished with such security and indemnity against such expense or liability as it may reasonably require.
 
(m)  Whenever the Bank is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement, is unsure as to the application, intent, interpretation or meaning of any provision of this Agreement, or otherwise determines instruction to be necessary or desirable, the Bank shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Servicer, if before the Outside Time, or to the Secured Party if after the Outside Time, requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and, to the extent the Bank acts in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received from the Servicer if before the Outside Time, or the Secured Party if after the Outside Time, as the case may be, the Bank shall not be liable on account of such action to any individual or entity.  If the Bank shall not have received appropriate instructions within ten calendar days of sending 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 which is consistent, in its view, with this Agreement, and the Bank shall have no liability to any individual or entity for any such action or inaction.  Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to limit the agreement of the parties in Section 3 of the General Terms that the Bank will comply with the Initial Instruction and with any Disposition Instructions originated by the Secured Party, in each case without the Debtor’s or Servicer’s further consent.

(a) Except for amounts referred to in Section 5(b), the Bank (i) subordinates any security interest, lien or other encumbrance against the Deposit Account to the Secured Party’s security interest and (ii) will not exercise any right of recoupment, setoff or debit against the Deposit Account. This subordination will not apply to any security interest that the Bank has in an item under UCC Article 4 as a collecting bank.

6.
Indemnification and Reimbursement.
 
(a) The Servicer, at any time before the Outside Time, or Secured Party, at any time after the Outside Time (such party, at the respective time, referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”) indemnifies the Bank and its officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents against all Claims incurred, sustained or payable by the Bank and its officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents arising out of this Agreement except to the extent directly caused by the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
(b) The Secured Party agrees to reimburse the Bank for any charge against the Deposit Account under Section 5(b) for which there were insufficient funds in the Deposit Account to satisfy the charge. Such reimbursement will be limited to the aggregate amount transferred from the Deposit Account as a result of the Bank’s acting upon Disposition Instructions originated by the Secured Party or pursuant to Section 9(b). Any demand by the Bank for reimbursement must be made within the number of days after the termination of this Agreement set forth in the Specific Terms. The Bank may not make a Claim for reimbursement under this subsection unless (i) the Servicer fails to satisfy the Claim within 15 days after the Bank makes a demand on the Servicer under Section 6(a), if before the Initial Instruction is given or (ii) the Bank is enjoined, stayed or prohibited by operation of law from making the demand on the Servicer before the Initial Instruction is given.
 
 
12

 
 
(c) The Secured Party’s reimbursement obligations under Section 6(b) will not apply to (i) a charge for reimbursement of or indemnification for any out-of-pocket or allocable internal or external legal fees and expenses incurred by the Bank in connection with any claim or defense by the Bank against the Secured Party relating to this Agreement (without limiting any rights of the Bank to such amounts under any other provision of this Agreement) or (ii) the amount of any loss incurred by the Bank to the extent directly caused by the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If the Bank satisfies any Claim against the Debtor or Servicer referred to in the foregoing clause (i) by charging the Deposit Account, the amount of the Secured Party’s maximum liability for reimbursement obligations under Section 6(b) will be reduced by the amount of the Claim so satisfied.
 
(d) If the Secured Party fails to reimburse the Bank for any amount under Section 6(b), the Secured Party will pay the Bank’s out-of-pocket or allocable internal and external legal fees and expenses in collecting from the Secured Party the amount payable.
 
(e) The Secured Party indemnifies the Bank and its officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents against all other Claims incurred, sustained or payable by the Bank arising from the Bank following an Initial Instruction or a Disposition Instruction or Investment Direction originated by the Secured Party, or from the Bank’s remittance of funds pursuant to Section 9(b), except to the extent directly caused by the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
 
7.          Representations and Warranties; Agreements with Other Persons. The Bank represents and warrants to the Secured Party that the Bank (i) is an organization engaged in the business of banking, (ii) maintains the Deposit Account in the ordinary course of the Bank’s business and (iii) has not entered into any currently effective agreement with any person under which the Bank may be obligated to comply with Disposition Instructions originated by a person other than the Servicer or the Secured Party. The Bank will not, during the term of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with any person under which the Bank may be obligated to comply with Disposition Instructions originated by a person other than the Servicer or the Secured Party.
 
8.          Deposit Account Information. The Bank shall make available to the Servicer, the Secured Party and the Debtor an electronic record of the activity of the Deposit Account and the cash balance held therein via on-line access.  The Bank agrees to send by regular mail to the Servicer, the Secured Party or the Debtor account statements summarizing the activity and cash balance in the Deposit Account upon receipt by the Bank of written request therefor.  The Bank’s liability for failing to provide such information will not exceed the Bank’s cost of providing such information.

9.
Termination; Closure of the Deposit Account.
 
(a) None of the Debtor, the Servicer or the Bank will close the Deposit Account prior to termination of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be terminated by the Debtor or Servicer except by a notice to the Bank given jointly by the Debtor, Servicer and Secured Party. This Agreement may be terminated (i) by the Secured Party at any time by written notice to the other parties and (ii) by the Bank (A) immediately upon notice to the other parties if the Bank becomes obligated to terminate this Agreement or to close the Deposit Account under any statute, rule or regulation, or any Order or Process, binding upon the Bank, (B) upon five Business Days’ notice to the other parties if any other party is in material breach of any of the Deposit-related Agreements or this Agreement, and (C) otherwise upon 30 days’ notice to the other parties.
 
(b) If the Bank terminates this Agreement pursuant to clause (A) of Section 9(a)(ii), the Bank will remit any funds in the Deposit Account on the date of termination (i) at the written direction of the Secured Party if the direction is received by the Bank prior to the date of termination of this Agreement or (ii) if no such direction is received by the Bank prior to such date, by check mailed to the address of the Secured Party for receiving communications under this Agreement. If the Bank terminates this Agreement pursuant to clause (B) or (C) of Section 9(a)(ii), the Bank will remit any funds in the Deposit Account on the date of termination at the written direction of the Secured Party only if the direction is received by the Bank prior to the date of termination of this Agreement, otherwise the Bank shall remit any such funds by check mailed to the address of the Servicer for receiving communications under this Agreement. Any obligation of the Bank to remit any funds to or at the direction of the Secured Party or Servicer under this subsection is subject to clauses (B) through (F) of Section 4(a)(ii).
 
(c) Except as provided in Section 9(b) and in any event if the Secured Party has communicated to the Bank that the Secured Party does not wish to receive or direct the disposition of the funds, the Secured Party will not receive from the Bank any remittance of funds from the Deposit Account upon termination of this Agreement by the Bank; instead, such funds shall be distributed in accordance with any Disposition Instruction issued by Servicer or, if Servicer has not issued any Disposition Instruction before such termination, then to Servicer by check mailed to the address of the Servicer for receiving communications under this Agreement.

11.
Successors and Transferees.
 
(a) This Agreement will inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties and their respective successors and other transferees permitted under this Section. Except as provided in this Section, a voluntary transfer of a party’s rights or duties under this Agreement without the written consent of the other parties will be void.
 
(b) The Bank may transfer its rights and duties under this Agreement to a transferee to which, by contract or operation of law, the Bank transfers substantially all of its rights and duties under the Deposit-related Agreements.
 
(c) The Secured Party may transfer its rights and duties under this Agreement to (i) a transferee to which, by contract or operation of law, the Secured Party transfers substantially all of its rights and duties under the financing or other arrangements between the Secured Party and the Debtor for which the Deposit Account acts as collateral security or (ii) if the Secured Party is acting as a trustee, indenture trustee, agent, collateral agent, or other representative in whose favor a security interest is created or provided for, a transferee that is a successor trustee, indenture trustee, agent, collateral agent, or other representative.
 
(d) No transfer under this Section will be binding upon a non-transferring party until the transferring party or the transferee notifies the non-transferring parties of the transfer in a writing signed by the transferee that identifies the transferee, gives the transferee’s address for communications under this Agreement, and states that the transferee is a successor of the transferor or other transferee permitted under this Section and is entitled to the benefit of the transferring party’s rights and has assumed all of the transferring party’s duties under this Agreement.
 
 
15

 
 
(e) A non-transferring party need not request proof of any transfer or that the transferee is a successor of the transferor or other transferee permitted by this Section. If requested by a non-transferring party, however, the transferring party or the transferee will provide reasonable proof thereof. If the Bank or the Secured Party, as a non-transferring party, requests such proof, then the effectiveness of the notification of transfer as to the non-transferring party will be suspended until the proof is provided.
 
(f) When a transfer becomes binding on the non-transferring parties, the transferring party will not be entitled to exercise any rights, and will be relieved of its obligations, accruing under this Agreement from and after that time. Those rights may be exercised and those obligations will be incurred by the transferee.
 
(g) The provisions of subsections (d) and (e) requiring notification for a transfer to be binding on the non-transferring parties and suspending the effectiveness of the notification of transfer until reasonable proof of the transfer has been provided do not apply to the Bank as the transferring party if the transfer is by operation of law and by operation of the law (i) the transferee succeeds to all or substantially all of the rights and becomes generally bound by all of the duties of the Bank, including the Bank’s duties under this Agreement, and (ii) the Bank ceases to exist.
 
12.

(c) If this Agreement conflicts with any of the Deposit-related Agreements, this Agreement will control. However, this Agreement will not (i) derogate from any Claim or defense that the Bank may have against the Debtor or the Servicer under any of the Deposit-related Agreements or (ii) create any third party beneficiary rights under any of the Deposit-related Agreements in favor of the Secured Party.
 
(d) This Agreement does not amend or otherwise modify any of the agreements between the Debtor and the Secured Party or provide any rights for the Debtor or the Servicer to originate a Disposition Instruction or Investment Direction in contravention of any agreement between the Debtor and the Secured Party.
