(i)           Unless otherwise provided in any applicable Series Supplement, the Term Notes shall be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A- 1 and Exhibit A-2, as applicable; provided, however, that any of the Term Notes may be issued with appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and variations, and may have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, as may be required to comply with any law or with rules or regulations pursuant thereto, or with the rules of any securities market in which the Term Notes may be admitted to trading, or to conform to general usage. The Term Notes shall be issuable in book-entry form and in accordance with Section 2.03, Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Notes shall initially be held and transferred through the book-entry facilities of the Depositary; provided, however, that Term Notes purchased by Institutional Accredited Investors that are not Qualified Institutional Buyers will be delivered in fully registered, certificated form and Term Notes of a Series to the extent provided in the related Series Supplement, upon original issuance, may be issued in fully registered, certificated form (collectively, the “Definitive Term Notes” and, together with the Definitive Variable Funding Notes, “Definitive Notes”).

All Term Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication.

(c)           The aggregate principal amount of the Term Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture shall be unlimited.

Section 2.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

(a)           The Co-Issuers may, at their own expense, appoint any Person with appropriate experience as a securities registrar to act as Note Registrar hereunder; provided, that in the absence of any other Person appointed in accordance herewith acting as Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee agrees to act in such capacity in accordance with the terms hereof. The Note Registrar shall be subject to the same standards of care, limitations on liability and rights to indemnity as the Indenture Trustee, and the provisions of Sections 11.02, 11.03, 11.04, 11.05, 11.06(b), and 11.06(c) shall apply to the Note Registrar to the same extent that they apply to the Indenture Trustee and with the same rights of recovery. Any Note Registrar appointed in accordance with this Section 2.02(a) may at any time resign by giving at least 30 days’ advance written notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Co- Issuers. The Co-Issuers may at any time terminate the agency of any Note Registrar appointed in accordance with this Section 2.02(a) by giving written notice of termination to such Note Registrar, with a copy to the Servicer.

At all times during the term of this Indenture, there shall be maintained at the office of the Note Registrar a Note Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Note Registrar may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The Co-Issuers, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note Register or to obtain a copy thereof at all reasonable times, and to rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Note Registrar as to the information set forth in the Note Register.

(b)           No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Note or interest therein shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws.

Unless otherwise provided in any applicable Series Supplement, if a transfer of any Note that constitutes a Definitive Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance of the Notes or a transfer of a Book-Entry Note to a successor Depositary as contemplated by Section 2.03(c)), then such transfer shall not be registered by the Note Registrar unless the Note Registrar receives (and, upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) either: (i) a certification from the Noteholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-5, in the case of a transfer to a Qualified Institutional Buyer, or Exhibit B-6, in the case of a transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, and a certification from the prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-3, in the case of a transfer to a Qualified Institutional Buyer, or Exhibit B-4, in the case of a transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Co-Issuers, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar in their respective capacities as such), together with the written certification(s) as to the facts surrounding such transfer from the Noteholder desiring to effect such transfer and/or such Noteholder’s prospective Transferee on which such Opinion of Counsel is based.

If a transfer of any interest in a Rule 144A Global Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act to a Person who will take delivery of such interest in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note, then the Note Owner desiring to effect such transfer shall be required to deliver to the Note Registrar (i) a certification substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B-2 and (ii) such written orders and instructions as are required under the Applicable Procedures to direct the Indenture Trustee to debit the account of a Depositary Participant by a denomination of interests in such Rule 144A Global Note, and credit the account of a Depositary Participant by a denomination of interests in such Regulation S Global Note, that is equal to the denomination of beneficial interests in the Class of Notes to be transferred. Upon delivery to the Note Registrar of such certification and such orders and instructions, the Indenture Trustee, subject to and in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall reduce the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note in respect of the applicable Class of Notes and increase the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note for such Class by the denomination of the beneficial interest in such Class specified in such orders and instructions. If a transfer of any interest in a Rule 144A Global Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act to a Person who will take delivery of such interest in the form of an interest in such Rule 144A Global Note, the Note Owner desiring to effect such transfer shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that the certifications set forth in Exhibit B-1 are, with respect to the subject Transfer, true and correct.

Any interest in a Rule 144A Global Note with respect to any Class of Book-Entry Notes may be transferred by any Note Owner holding such interest to any Institutional Accredited Investor (other than a Qualified Institutional Buyer) that takes delivery in the form of a Definitive Note of the same Class as such Rule 144A Global Note upon delivery to the Note Registrar of (i) (A) a certification from such Note Owner’s prospective Transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4, or (B) an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Co-Issuers, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar in their respective capacities as such), to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and (ii) such written orders and instructions as are required under the Applicable Procedures to direct the Indenture Trustee to debit the account of a Depositary Participant by the denomination of the transferred interests in such Rule 144A Global Note. Upon delivery to the Note Registrar of the certification and/or opinion contemplated by this paragraph of Section 2.02(b), the Indenture Trustee, subject to and in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall reduce the denomination of the subject Rule 144A Global Note by the denomination of the transferred interests in such Rule 144A Global Note, and shall cause a Definitive Note of the same Class as such Rule 144A Global Note, and in a denomination equal to the reduction in the denomination of such Rule 144A Global Note, to be executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with this Indenture to the applicable Transferee.

Except as provided in the next sentence, on and prior to the Release Date, no beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note for any Class of Book-Entry Notes shall be transferred to any Person who takes delivery other than in the form of a beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note. On and prior to the Release Date, a Note Owner holding an interest in a Regulation S Global Note desiring to effect a Transfer to a Person who takes delivery of such interest in the form of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note for such Class of Notes shall be required to deliver to the Note Registrar a written certification substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 including such written orders and instructions as are required under the Applicable Procedures to direct the Indenture Trustee to debit the account of a Depositary Participant by a denomination of interests in such Regulation S Global Note, and credit the account of a Depositary Participant by a denomination of interests in such Rule 144A Global Note, that is equal to the denomination of beneficial interests in the Class of Notes to be transferred. Upon delivery to the Note Registrar of such certification and orders and instructions, the Indenture Trustee, subject to and in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall reduce the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note in respect of the applicable Class of Notes and increase the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note for such Class by the denomination of the beneficial interest in such Class specified in such orders and instructions. On or prior to the Release Date, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note for each Class of Book-Entry Notes may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream.

None of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar shall be obligated to register or qualify any Class of Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note or interest therein without registration or qualification. Any Noteholder or Note Owner desiring to effect a transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Note or interest therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Parent, the Guarantors, the Obligors, the Indenture Trustee, the Managers, the Servicer and the Note Registrar against any liability that may result if such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is not exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

(c)           No transfer of any Note or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan or to any Person who is directly or indirectly acquiring such Note on behalf of, as fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with the assets of, a Plan, except in each such case, in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 2.02(c). Any attempted or purported transfer of a Note in violation of this Section 2.02(c) will be null and void and vest no rights in any purported Transferee.

The Note Registrar shall not register the transfer of a Note that constitutes a Definitive Note or the transfer of an interest in a Book-Entry Note that following such purported transfer will constitute a Definitive Note unless the Note Registrar has received from the prospective Transferee a certification that either:

(i)

such prospective Transferee is not a Plan and is not directly or indirectly acquiring or holding such Note or any interest in such Note on behalf of, as fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with assets of, a Plan; or

(ii)

such acquisition and holding of such Note or any interest therein by such prospective Transferee will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a similar violation of any applicable Similar Laws.

It is hereby acknowledged that either of the forms of certification attached hereto as Exhibits B-3 and B-4 is acceptable for purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence.

The Note Owner desiring to effect a transfer of an interest in a Book-Entry Note (other than a transfer of an interest in a Book-Entry Note that following such purported transfer will constitute a Definitive Note which transfer shall be subject to the forms of certification attached hereto as Exhibits B-3 and B-4 as provided for above) shall obtain from its prospective Transferee a certification that such prospective Transferee is not a Plan and is not directly or indirectly acquiring, holding and subsequently disposing of such Note or any interest in such Note on behalf of, as fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with assets of, a Plan.

It is hereby acknowledged that either of the forms of certification attached hereto as Exhibits B-1 and B-2 is acceptable for purposes of the preceding sentence.

(d)           If a Person is acquiring a Note as a fiduciary or agent for one or more accounts, such Person shall be required to deliver to the Note Registrar a certification to the effect that, and such other evidence as may be reasonably required by the Note Registrar to confirm that, it has (i) sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and (ii) full power to make the applicable foregoing acknowledgments, representations, warranties, certifications and/or agreements with respect to each such account as set forth in subsections (b), (c) and/or (d), as appropriate, of this Section 2.02.

(f)           At the option of any Noteholder, its Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of authorized denominations of the same Class and Series evidencing a like aggregate principal balance, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive shall be executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with Section 2.01(b).

(g)           Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to, the Note Registrar duly executed by the Noteholder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

(h)           No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.

(i)           All Notes surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be physically canceled by the Note Registrar, and the Note Registrar shall dispose of such canceled Notes in accordance with its standard procedures.

(j)           None of the Parent, the Guarantors, the Obligors, the Managers, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar nor any agent of any of the foregoing shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.

(k)           The Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Person with respect to the accuracy of the books or records, or the acts or omissions, of the Depositary or its nominee or of any Depositary Participant, with respect to any Ownership Interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of prepayment) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to the Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to the Holders hereunder shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Book-Entry Note). The rights of Note Owners in any Book- Entry Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the customary procedures of the Depositary. The Indenture Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary.

(l)           The Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any Note or any transfer of any interest in any Book-Entry Note other than to require delivery of the certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance on their face to the express requirements of this Indenture. In connection with any transfer of any Note, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall be under no duty to inquire into the validity, legality and due authorization of such transfer.

(m)           The Note Registrar shall provide to each of the other parties hereto, upon reasonable written request and at the expense of the Requesting Party, an updated copy of the Note Register.

(n)           Transfers of Variable Funding Notes shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as may be set forth in the applicable Variable Funding Note Purchase Agreement.

Section 2.03 Book-Entry Notes.

(a)           Unless otherwise provided in any applicable Series Supplement, each Class and Series of Term Notes shall initially be issued as one or more Notes registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and, except as provided in Section 2.03(c), transfer of such Notes may not be registered by the Note Registrar unless such transfer is to a successor Depositary that agrees to hold such Notes for the respective Note Owners with Ownership Interests therein. Such Note Owners shall hold and, subject to Sections 2.02(b) and 2.02(c), transfer their respective Ownership Interests in and to such Notes through the book-entry facilities of the Depositary and, except as provided in Section 2.03(c), shall not be entitled to Definitive Notes in respect of such Ownership Interests. Term Notes of each Class and Series of Notes initially sold in reliance on Rule 144A shall be represented by the Rule 144A Global Note for such Class and Series, which shall be deposited with the DTC Custodian and registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of the Depositary. Term Notes of each Class and Series of Notes initially sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall be represented by the Regulation S Global Note for such Class and Series, which shall be deposited with the DTC Custodian and registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of the Depositary. All transfers by Note Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Notes shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depositary Participant or brokerage firm representing each such Note Owner. Each Depositary Participant shall only transfer the Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Notes of Note Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depositary’s normal procedures.

(b)           The U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall for all purposes, including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Notes, deal with the Depositary as the authorized representative of the Note Owners with respect to such Notes for the purposes of exercising the rights of Noteholders hereunder. The rights of Note Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Notes shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Depositary Participants and indirect participating brokerage firms representing such Note Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depositary as holder of the Book-Entry Notes with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Note Owners. The Indenture Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Noteholders and shall give notice to the Depositary of such record date.

(c)           Term Notes initially issued in the form of Book-Entry Notes will thereafter be issued as Definitive Notes to applicable Note Owners or their nominees, rather than to the Depositary or its nominee, only (i) if the Co-Issuers advise the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depositary is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Notes and the Co-Issuers are unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) in connection with the transfer by a Note Owner of an interest in a Global Note to an Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer. Upon the occurrence of the event described in clause (i) of the preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee will be required to notify, in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures, all Depositary Participants (as identified in a listing of Depositary Participant accounts to which each Class and Series of Book-Entry Notes is credited) through the Depositary of the availability of such Definitive Notes. Upon surrender to the Note Registrar of any Class of Book-Entry Notes (or any portion of any Class thereof) by the Depositary, accompanied by re-registration instructions from the Depositary for registration of transfer, Definitive Notes in respect of such Class (or portion thereof) and Series shall be executed and authenticated in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and delivered to the Note Owners identified in such instructions. None of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar 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 Notes for purposes of evidencing ownership of any Book-Entry Notes, the registered holders of such Definitive Notes shall be recognized as Noteholders hereunder and, accordingly, shall be entitled directly to receive payments on, to exercise Voting Rights with respect to, and to transfer and exchange such Definitive Notes.

Section 2.04 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar, or the Note Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to hold each of them harmless and any other documents (including a lost note affidavit) that the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar may reasonably request, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of the same Class, type and Series and of like Note Principal Balance shall be executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with Section 2.01(b). Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.04, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership of such Note, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Note shall be found at any time.

Section 2.05 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Notes Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments pursuant to Article V and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or any agent of any of them will acknowledge or be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 2.06 Certification by Note Owners.

(a)           Each Note Owner is hereby deemed, by virtue of its acquisition of an Ownership Interest in the Global Notes, to agree to comply with the transfer requirements of Section 2.02(c).

(b)           To the extent that under the terms of this Indenture, it is necessary to determine whether any Person is a Note Owner, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on a certificate of such Person in such form as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee and shall specify the Class, Series and Note Principal Balance of the Book-Entry Note beneficially owned by such Person.

Section 2.07 Notes Issuable in Series. The Notes of the Co-Issuers may be issued in one or more Series subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.13. There shall be established in one or more Series Supplements, prior to the issuance of Notes of any Series:

(i)           the title of the Notes of such Series (which shall distinguish the Notes of such Series from Notes of other Series) and whether such Notes will be Variable Funding Notes or Term Notes;

(ii)           any limit upon the aggregate principal balance of the Notes of such Series that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes of such Series pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.04);

(iii)            the date or dates on which the principal of the Notes of such Series is payable;

(iv)           the Class A-2 Targeted Amortization Amounts, if any, for the Class A-2 Notes of such Series as of each Payment Date;

(v)           the rate or rates at which the Notes of such Series shall bear interest, if any, or the method by which such rate shall be determined, the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue, the interest payment dates on which such interest shall be payable and the record dates for the determination of Holders to whom interest is payable (in each case to the extent such items are not specified herein or if specified herein to the extent such items are modified by such Series Supplement); and

(vi)           any other terms of such Series (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture except to the extent that such Series Supplement also constitutes an amendment of this Indenture pursuant to Article XIII).

The Notes of a Series may have more than one settlement or issue date. The Notes of each Series will be assigned to one or more Classes and shall satisfy the requirements of Section 2.13(b) as of the date of issuance.

On the date of any prepayment in connection with which Prepayment Consideration is payable, the Indenture Trustee or the Paying Agent, at the direction of the Servicer, shall pay such Prepayment Consideration received in respect of any Class or Series of Notes to the Holders of the corresponding Class or Series of Notes pro rata based on the amount prepaid on each such Note.

(b)           Partial optional or mandatory prepayments made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 2.09 will be applied to the Classes of all Notes of all Series in direct order of alphabetical designation; provided that optional prepayments (other than those funded by application of amounts on deposit in the Cash Trap Reserve Sub-Accounts) may be directed by the Co-Issuers to be applied to the Notes of a particular Series in direct order of alphabetical designation and, with respect to optional prepayments of the Class A Notes (other than those funded by application of amounts on deposit in the Cash Trap Reserve Sub-Accounts) may be directed by the Co-Issuers to be applied to the Class A-1 Notes or to be applied to other Class A Notes, with any such application to other Class A Notes being in direct order of numerical designation.

Failure on the part of the Co-Issuers to pay the entire Class C Sweep Amount with respect to the Class C Notes of any Series on any Payment Date, other than the Rated Final Payment Date for such Series, shall not constitute an Event of Default or otherwise provide to the Noteholders (or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders) any additional rights or remedies.

(f)            In connection with each disposition of a Data Center pursuant to Section 7.30, if and to the extent required thereunder, the Co-Issuers shall prepay the Term Notes in an amount equal to the Disposition Price for such disposed Data Center (and pay the current obligations of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, including any Advances (with interest thereon), along with the Indenture Trustee Fee, Servicing Fee and Other Servicing Fees, in each case to the extent sufficient funds have not been deposited in the applicable Collection Account for distribution on the applicable Payment Date) together with any applicable Prepayment Consideration.

(g)           If and to the extent provided in the Series Supplement for any Series, commencing on the Payment Date specified in such Series Supplement for such Series, and subject to the availability hereunder of funds for such purpose and so long as a Cash Trap Condition is not continuing, a portion of the principal of the Class A-2 Notes of such Series will be payable on each Payment Date in an amount equal to the Class A-2 Monthly Amortization Amount as of such Payment Date with respect to such Notes as specified in such Series Supplement in accordance with Section 5.01(g). Failure on the part of the Co-Issuers to pay the entire Class A-2 Monthly Amortization Amount with respect to the Class A-2 Notes of any Series on any Payment Date, other than the Rated Final Payment Date for such Series, shall not constitute an Event of Default or otherwise provide to the Noteholders (or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders) any additional rights or remedies.

The Servicer shall provide written notice to the Indenture Trustee of the Post-ARD Additional Interest Rate.

Upon receipt of any such notice, the Servicer shall calculate the then Subordinate Purchase Right Outstanding Priority Balance. Payment of the Subordinate Purchase Right Outstanding Priority Balance will in each case be made ratably by each Subordinate Purchaser to the Class A Noteholders and, if applicable, the Class B Noteholders based on the ratio of the Outstanding Note Principal Balance of the Class C Notes or, if applicable, Class B Notes held by such Subordinate Purchaser to the Outstanding Note Principal Balance of the Class C Notes or, if applicable, Class B Notes held by all Subordinate Purchasers. Following all Subordinate Purchaser’s payment of their portion of the Subordinate Purchase Right Outstanding Priority Balance, each applicable Subordinate Purchaser shall be the Noteholder of the applicable Class A Notes and, if applicable, Class B Notes and shall be entitled to all rights and interests to which a Noteholder of the Class A Notes and, if applicable, Class B Notes would be entitled.

Section 2.14 Canadian Interest Act. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder, whenever interest or a fee to be paid hereunder or under any Note or in connection herewith is to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days consisting of twelve 30-day months, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate or fee used in such calculation is equivalent during any particular period is the rate or fee so used multiplied by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the product of (i) the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such period ends; and (ii) the sum of (A) the product of 30 and the number of complete months elapsed in the relevant period, and (B) the number of days elapsed in any incomplete month in the relevant period; and (b) the denominator is the product of 360 and the actual number of days in the relevant period. The Canadian Co-Issuer acknowledges and confirms that (1) this paragraph satisfies the requirements of Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) to the extent it applies to the expression or statement of any interest or fees payable hereunder or any Notes; and (2) it is able to calculate the yearly rate or percentage of interest payable under any Note based upon the methodology set out above. If any provision of this Indenture would oblige a Canadian Obligor to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Noteholder in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by applicable law or would result in a receipt by that Noteholder of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by that Noteholder of “interest” at a “criminal rate”.

Section 6.16 Intellectual Property. To the Obligors’ Knowledge, the use by any Obligor of all patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks and copyrights material to such Obligor’s business, and all applications therefor and licenses thereof, does not infringe on the rights and entitlements of any third parties thereto that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(vi)     For each Data Center located in whole or in part in a federally designated “special flood hazard area”, flood insurance to the extent required by law and available at federally subsidized rates;

(vii)    An umbrella excess liability policy with a limit of not less than $25,000,000 over primary insurance, which policy shall include coverage for contractual liability coverage, premises and automobile liability coverage, and coverage for safeguarding of personal property and may also include such additional coverages and insured risks which are acceptable to the Servicer;

106

(viii)   Business interruption insurance in an amount not less than (x) 24 months of business interruption or loss of income insurance for all-risk, excluding earthquakes and (y) 12 months of business interruption or loss of income insurance for earthquakes; and

(ix)      Workers’ compensation, in an amount specified under applicable law.

All Insurance Policies shall be in content (including, without limitation, endorsements or exclusions, if any), form, and amounts, and issued by companies, reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer from time to time and shall name the Indenture Trustee and its successors and assignees as their interests may appear as an “additional insured” or “loss payee” and “mortgagee” (with respect to property insurance, as applicable) for each of the policies under this Section 7.05 for which such designation is applicable and shall contain a waiver of subrogation clause reasonably acceptable to the Servicer. All Insurance Policies under Sections 7.05(i), (ii), (iv) and (vi) with respect to the Data Centers shall contain a Non-Contributory Standard mortgagee clause and a mortgagee’s Loss Payable Endorsement (Form 438 BFU NS), or their equivalents (such endorsements shall entitle the Indenture Trustee to collect any and all proceeds payable under all such insurance, with the insurance company waiving any claim or defense against the Indenture Trustee for premium payment, deductible, self-insured retention or claims reporting provisions). The Obligors may obtain any insurance required by this Section 7.05 through blanket policies; provided, however, that such blanket policies shall separately set forth the amount of insurance in force (together with applicable deductibles, and per occurrence limits) with respect to the Data Centers (which shall not be reduced by reason of events occurring on property other than the Data Centers) and shall afford all the protections to the Indenture Trustee as are required under this Section 7.05. Except as may be expressly provided above, all policies of insurance required hereunder shall contain no annual aggregate limit of liability, other than with respect to liability, earthquake or flood insurance. If a blanket policy is issued, a certified copy of said policy shall be furnished, together with a certificate indicating that the Indenture Trustee is an additional insured (and, if applicable, loss payee) under such policy in the designated amount. Prior to the expiration of any Insurance Policy maintained to satisfy the requirements of this Section 7.05, the Obligors shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer an insurance certificate executed by the insurer or its authorized agent evidencing the renewal of such Insurance Policy, which certificate shall be acceptable to the Servicer. Upon the request of the Servicer, the Obligors shall deliver to the Servicer a duplicate original of any Insurance Policy maintained to satisfy the requirements hereof. An insurance company shall not be satisfactory unless such insurance company (a) is licensed or authorized to issue insurance in the state where the applicable Data Center is located and (b) has a claims paying ability rating by S&P of not less than “A” and, if rated by Moody’s, of not less than “Baa2”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a carrier which does not meet the foregoing ratings requirement shall nevertheless be deemed acceptable hereunder provided that such carrier is reasonably acceptable to the Servicer and the Obligors shall deliver notice to each of the Rating Agencies of the ratings of such carriers. If any insurance coverage required under this Section 7.05 is maintained by a syndicate of insurers, the preceding ratings requirements shall be deemed satisfied as long as at least 75.0% of the coverage (if there are four or fewer members of the syndicate) or at least 60.0% of the coverage (if there are 5 or more members of the syndicate) is maintained with carriers meeting the claims-paying ability ratings requirements by S&P and Moody’s (if applicable) set forth above and all carriers in such syndicate have a claims-paying ability rating by S&P of not less than “BBB” (to the extent rated by S&P) and by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ of not less than “Baa2” (to the extent rated by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇). The Obligors shall furnish the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer receipts for the payment of premiums on such Insurance Policies or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer in the event that such premiums have not been paid by the Managers pursuant to this Indenture. The requirements of this Section 7.05 shall apply to any separate policies of insurance taken out by the Obligors concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with the Insurance Policies. Property losses shall be payable to the Indenture Trustee notwithstanding (1) any act, failure to act or negligence of the Obligors or their agents or employees, the Indenture Trustee or any other insured party which might, absent such agreement, result in a forfeiture or all or part of such insurance payment, other than the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Indenture Trustee knowingly in violation of the conditions of such policy, (2) the occupation or use of the Data Centers or any part thereof for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy, (3) any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken pursuant to this Indenture or (4) any change in title to or ownership of the Data Centers or any part thereof. For purposes of determining whether the required insurance coverage is being maintained hereunder, each of the Indenture Trustee and Servicer shall be entitled to rely solely on a certification thereof furnished to it by the Co-Issuers or the Managers, without any obligation to investigate the accuracy or completeness of any information set forth therein, and shall have no liability with respect thereto. The property insurance described in this Section 7.05 shall include “time element” coverage by which the Indenture Trustee shall be assured payment of all amounts due under the Notes, this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents, “extra expense” (i.e., soft costs), clean-up, transit and ordinary payroll coverage and “expediting expense” coverage to facilitate rapid repair or restoration of the Data Centers. The Insurance Policies shall not contain any deductible in excess of $250,000.

107

Section 7.06 Operation and Maintenance of the Data Centers; Casualty; Condemnation.

(a)       Each Asset Entity shall maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working order and condition all material property necessary for use in its business, including the applicable Data Centers, and shall make or cause to be made all appropriate repairs, renewals and replacements thereof except to the extent the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All work required or permitted under this Indenture shall be performed in a workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws except to the extent the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)

(i)       In the event of material casualty or property loss at any of the Data Centers, the Co-Issuers shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days of obtaining Knowledge thereof) give written notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer. In the event of any such casualty or property loss which, in the U.S. Co-Issuer’s or the Canadian Co-Issuer’s reasonable opinion, is likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the applicable Asset Entity shall, to the extent permitted by law and consistent with prudent business practices, promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion, in accordance with the terms hereof, the repair and restoration of the Data Center as nearly as possible to the Pre-Existing Condition (a “Restoration”). The Asset Entities hereby authorize and empower the Servicer as attorney-in-fact for the Asset Entities (jointly with the Asset Entities unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or any of them, and upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice, with respect to Insurance Proceeds relating to a casualty in excess of $5,000,000 to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under Insurance Policies, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such Insurance Policies, to collect Insurance Proceeds and to receive Insurance Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000 (to be held in the applicable Priority Expense Reserve Sub- Account pending the Asset Entities’ determination with respect to Restoration of the affected Data Center as set forth in Section 7.06(c)), and to deduct therefrom the Indenture Trustee’s and the Servicer’s reasonable expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 7.06 shall require the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to incur any expense or take any action hereunder. The Co-Issuers further authorize the Indenture Trustee, at the Servicer’s option and written direction, with respect to proceeds in excess of $5,000,000 (a) to hold the balance of such proceeds to be made available to the Asset Entities for the cost of Restoration of any of the Data Centers or (b) unless prohibited by Section 7.06(c), to apply such Insurance Proceeds to prepay the principal amount of the Notes whether or not then due, in accordance with Section 2.09(a). The Servicer shall not direct the Indenture Trustee to apply such Insurance Proceeds to prepay the principal amount of the Notes so long as each of the conditions (as applicable) to the release of Loss Proceeds for restoration or repair of the Data Centers under Section 7.06(c) have been satisfied with respect to such Insurance Proceeds in all material respects. The Asset Entities hereby authorize and empower the Servicer as attorney-in-fact for the Asset Entities (jointly with the Asset Entities unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or any of them, and upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice, with respect to proceeds of Insurance Policies not included in the definition of Insurance Proceeds, such as business interruption insurance and liability insurance, to adjust and compromise any claim under such Insurance Policies, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may coincide with proceedings relating to the settlement and adjustment of Insurance Proceeds described above), to collect and to receive such proceeds (to be held in the Priority Expense Reserve Sub-Accounts pending the Servicer’s allocation of such proceeds for the intended purposes). The Co-Issuers further authorize the Indenture Trustee, at the Servicer’s option and written direction, with respect to such proceeds (a) to hold the balance of such proceeds from liability insurance to be made available to the Asset Entities for the reimbursement of any expenses of any of the Data Centers related to such event or (b) otherwise, to deposit such amounts in the Collection Accounts and allocate such proceeds over such period of time for which such proceeds correspond (e.g., if the proceeds under the Insurance Policies provided 3 months of proceeds with respect to a business interruption policy, then such amounts shall be applied as Available Funds in the current Collection Period and each of the two immediately succeeding Collection Periods).

108

(ii)      The Co-Issuers shall promptly give the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer written notice of the commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Data Centers or any portion thereof of which the Asset Entities’ have Knowledge and that could, in the U.S. Issuer’s or Canadian Co-Issuer’s reasonable opinion, be likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Asset Entities hereby irrevocably appoint the Servicer as the attorney-in-fact for the Asset Entities (jointly with the Asset Entities unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), or any of them, and upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice, with respect to condemnation proceedings likely to result in Condemnation Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000 to collect Condemnation Proceeds and to receive and retain any Condemnation Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000 (to be held in the Priority Expense Reserve Sub-Account pending the Asset Entities’ determination with respect to Restoration of the affected Data Center as set forth in Section 7.06(c)) and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceeding. In accordance with the terms hereof, the Asset Entities shall cause Condemnation Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000 which are payable to the Asset Entities to be paid directly to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the applicable Priority Expense Reserve Sub-Account. If the applicable Data Center is sold following an Event of Default, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by the Indenture Trustee of Condemnation Proceeds, the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to receive said Condemnation Proceeds, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Asset Entities may prosecute any condemnation proceeding and settle or compromise and collect Condemnation Proceeds of not more than $5,000,000 provided that: (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (b) the Asset Entities apply the Condemnation Proceeds to any reconstruction or repair of the Data Center necessary or desirable as a result of such condemnation or taking, and (c) the Asset Entities promptly commence and diligently prosecute such reconstruction or repair to completion in accordance with all applicable laws. Subject to the terms hereof, each of the Asset Entities authorizes the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee to apply such Condemnation Proceeds, after the deduction of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer’s reasonable expenses incurred in the collection of such Condemnation Proceeds, at the Servicer’s option and written direction, to restoration or repair of the Data Centers or, at the Servicer’s option and written direction, to prepay the principal amount of the Notes, whether or not then due, in accordance with Section 2.09(a). The Servicer shall not direct the Indenture Trustee to apply such Condemnation Proceeds to prepay the principal amount of the Notes if each of the conditions (as applicable) to the release of Loss Proceeds for restoration or repair of the Data Centers under Section 7.06(c) have been satisfied with respect to such Condemnation Proceeds in all material respects.

(iii)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Co-Issuers shall have the right to apply Loss Proceeds toward the prepayment of the principal amount of the Notes (without any Yield Maintenance) in accordance with Section 2.09(a) in lieu of applying the same toward restoration.

109

(c)       The Servicer shall not direct the Indenture Trustee to apply Loss Proceeds to the prepayment of the principal amount of the Notes in accordance with Section 2.09(a) so long as each of the following conditions shall have been satisfied in all material respects: (i) no Event of Default then exists; (ii) the Servicer reasonably determines that there will be sufficient funds to complete the Restoration of the Data Center to at least substantially the condition it was in immediately prior to such casualty or condemnation (excluding replacement of obsolete Assets which are not required in connection with operating the applicable Data Center) and in compliance with applicable laws (the “Pre-Existing Condition”) and to timely make all payments due under the Transaction Documents during the Restoration of the affected Data Center; and (iii) the Servicer determines that the Restoration of the affected Data Center to the Pre-Existing Condition will be completed no later than 6 months prior to the latest Anticipated Repayment Date for any Series of Outstanding Notes. If the Servicer elects to apply Loss Proceeds to the prepayment of the principal of the Notes, such application shall be made on the Payment Date immediately following such election in accordance with Section 2.09(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event the Asset Entities, in their reasonable discretion, and within 180 days of receipt of such Loss Proceeds, elect not to restore a Data Center or are not able to restore a Data Center after the use of commercially reasonable efforts, any Loss Proceeds relating to such Data Center (less any Loss Proceeds expended to restore such Data Center) held in the Priority Expense Reserve Sub-Accounts, after reimbursing any amounts due to the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee, shall be applied to the prepayment of the Notes on the Payment Date immediately following such election in accordance with Section 2.09(a).

(d)       The Servicer shall not direct the Indenture Trustee to disburse Loss Proceeds more frequently than twice every calendar month. If Loss Proceeds are applied to the prepayment of the principal of the Notes, any such application shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly payments due under the Notes or otherwise under the Transaction Documents, or change the amounts of such payments. If the Servicer elects to apply all of such Loss Proceeds toward the prepayment of the principal of the Notes in accordance with Section 2.09(a), the Co-Issuers shall be entitled to obtain from the Indenture Trustee a release (without representation or warranty) of the applicable Data Center from the Lien of the Mortgage relating to such Data Center (in which event the Asset Entities shall not be obligated to restore the applicable property pursuant to Section 7.06(b)). Any amount of Loss Proceeds remaining in the Priority Expense Reserve Sub-Accounts after the full and final payment and discharge of all Obligations shall be refunded to, or as directed by, the Asset Entities or otherwise paid in accordance with applicable law. If a Data Center is sold at foreclosure or if the Indenture Trustee acquires title to a Data Center, the Indenture Trustee shall have all of the right, title and interest of the applicable Asset Entity in and to any Loss Proceeds and unearned premiums on Insurance Policies relating to such Data Center.

(e)       In no event shall the Servicer direct the Indenture Trustee to make disbursements of Loss Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Co-Issuers, less a retainage equal to the greater of (x) the actual retainage required pursuant to the permitted contract, or (y) 10.0% of such costs incurred until the Restoration has been completed. The retainage shall in no event be less than the amount actually held back by the Asset Entities from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The retainage shall not be released until the Servicer is reasonably satisfied that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.06 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Data Center have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and the Servicer receives final lien waivers and such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the retainage.

110

Section 7.07 Inspection; Investigation. Each Obligor shall permit any authorized representatives designated by the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer (and on and after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Controlling Class Representative) to visit and inspect during normal business hours its business, including its financial and accounting records, and to make copies and take extracts therefrom and to discuss its affairs, finances and business with its officers and independent public accountants (with such Obligor’s representative(s) present), at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested, provided that same is conducted in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s business. In addition, such authorized representatives of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer (and the Controlling Class Representative, on and after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default) shall also have the right to conduct reasonable site investigations of the Data Centers with respect to environmental matters; provided, however, that no subsurface investigations or other investigations that would reasonably be deemed to be intrusive or destructive shall be conducted without the prior written consent of such Obligor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Unless an Event of Default or Advance Period has occurred and is continuing, (x) the Indenture Trustee and Servicer shall provide advance written notice of at least three Business Days prior to visiting or inspecting any Data Center or any Obligor’s offices and (y) no more than one such visit shall be made to any Data Center or any Obligor’s offices in any calendar year. Additionally, the Obligors shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Servicer in connection with the performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents (including any duty to obtain an appraisal of the Collateral or to perform an in-depth analysis of the Managers or Obligors and their financial positions, in connection with a Consent request, in connection with a proposed Advance or if an Advance Period is outstanding and continuing).

Section 7.08 Compliance with Laws and Obligations. The Obligors shall (A) comply with the requirements of all present and future applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority in all jurisdictions in which it is now doing business or may hereafter be doing business, other than those laws, rules, regulations and orders the noncompliance with which collectively could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (B) maintain all licenses and permits now held or hereafter acquired by any Obligor, the loss, suspension, or revocation of which, or failure to renew, in the aggregate could have a Material Adverse Effect and (C) perform, observe, comply and fulfill all of its material obligations, covenants and conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation except to the extent the failure to so observe, comply or fulfill such could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

111

Section 7.09 Further Assurances. Each Obligor shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such documents, instruments, agreements, financing statements, and perform such acts as necessary or as the Indenture Trustee and/or the Servicer at any time may reasonably request to evidence, preserve and/or protect the Assets and Collateral at any time securing or intended to secure the Obligations and/or to better and more effectively carry out the purposes of this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents. The Obligors shall file or cause to be filed all documents (including, without limitation, all financing statements) required to be filed by the terms of this Indenture and any applicable Series Supplement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for in this Indenture and in each applicable Series Supplement. If an Asset Entity converts a Ground Lease Data Center to a Data Center owned in fee/freehold, the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, shall cause such Asset Entity simultaneously (or such period of time agreed upon between the applicable Co-Issuer, each Class A-1 Administrative Agent and the Controlling Class Representative) with the conversion of the related Ground Lease Data Center to a Data Center owned in fee to deliver (x) to the Indenture Trustee a pro forma title insurance policy, in a form acceptable to the Controlling Class Representative and any Class A-1 Administrative Agent, covering such Data Center insuring the Lien of the Mortgage in an amount equal to 100% of the Allocated Note Amount with respect to such Data Center dated as of the date of such conversion and (y) to the Title Company issuing such Title Policy, in the case of the U.S. Co-Issuer, or to the Indenture Trustee, in the case of the Canadian Co-Issuer an amended Mortgage (or replacement of) encumbering the fee interest to be submitted for recording/registration in the appropriate office of real property records and a Survey with respect to such Data Center (unless the general survey coverage is included in the Title Policy for such Data Center).

Section 7.10 Performance of Agreements and Tenant Leases. Each Asset Entity or Other Entity shall duly and punctually perform, observe and comply in all material respects with all of the terms, provisions, conditions, covenants and agreements on its part to be performed, observed and complied with (i) hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, (ii) under all Material Agreements and all Tenant Leases and (iii) all other agreements entered into or assumed by such Person in connection with the Data Centers, and will not suffer or permit any material default or event of default (giving effect to any applicable notice requirements and cure periods) to exist under any of the foregoing except where the failure to perform, observe or comply with any agreement referred to in clause (ii) or this clause (iii) of this Section 7.10 would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.11 New Tenant Leases; Recorded Mortgages. Promptly after execution thereof, the Asset Entities shall deliver electronically to the Servicer executed copies of each Tenant Lease entered into after the Initial Closing Date. Within 30 days of the receipt of any written request from the Servicer, the Asset Entities shall deliver electronically to the Servicer copies of Mortgages with evidence of recording indicated thereon when returned from the applicable recording offices.

Section 7.12 Management Agreements.

(a)       Each Obligor shall (i) perform and observe all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of the applicable Management Agreement on the part of such Obligor to be performed and observed, (ii) promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer of any material default under either Management Agreement of which it is aware, and (iii) prior to termination of the applicable Manager in accordance with the terms of the related Management Agreement, to renew such Management Agreement prior to each expiration date thereunder in accordance with its terms. If any Obligor shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the applicable Management Agreement on the part of such Obligor to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the Indenture Trustee’s other rights or remedies under this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents, and without waiving or releasing such Obligor from any of its obligations hereunder or under such Management Agreement, the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer on its behalf, shall have the right, upon prior written notice to such Obligor, to pay any sums and to perform any act as may be reasonably appropriate to cause such material conditions of the applicable Management Agreement on the part of such Obligor to be performed or observed; provided, however, that neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Servicer will be under any obligation to pay such sums or perform such acts.

112

(b)       The Obligors shall not surrender, terminate, cancel, or modify (other than non-material changes) either Management Agreement, or enter into any other Management Agreement with any new Manager, other than an Acceptable Manager, or consent to the assignment by the U.S. Manager or the Canadian Manager, as applicable, of its interest under the applicable Management Agreement, other than to an Acceptable Manager. If at any time an Acceptable Manager shall become the Manager, the Obligors shall (i) cause such Acceptable Manager, prior to commencement of its duties as Manager, to enter into a subordination of management agreement in substantially the form delivered on the Initial Closing Date with the Obligors, and (ii) provide written notice thereof to the Rating Agencies.

(c)       The Indenture Trustee and the Servicer are each permitted to utilize and in good faith rely upon the advice of the Managers (or, with respect to the Servicer and at its own expense (except to the extent that a particular expense is expressly provided herein to be an Advance or an Additional Issuer Expense) to utilize other agents or attorneys), in performing certain of its obligations under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, Data Center management, operation, and maintenance; and confirmation of compliance by the Asset Entities with the provisions hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Servicer shall have any liability with respect thereto.

Section 7.13 Maintenance of Office or Agency by Co-Issuers.

(a)       The Co-Issuers shall maintain an office, agency or address where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment and where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Co-Issuers will give prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office, agency or address; provided, however, that if the Co-Issuers do not furnish the Indenture Trustee with an address in Wilmington, Delaware where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, such presentations and surrenders may be made at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Co-Issuers hereby appoint the Indenture Trustee to receive all such presentations and surrenders. The Co-Issuers hereby appoint the Corporate Trust Office as its agency for such purposes.

(b)      The Co-Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Co-Issuers will give prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

113

(a)       Within 10 Business Days following a written request by the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, the Co-Issuers shall provide to the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer a duly acknowledged written statement (upon which the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer may conclusively rely) confirming (i) the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes, (ii) the terms of payment and maturity date of the Notes, (iii) the date to which interest has been paid, (iv) whether any offsets or defenses exist against the Obligations, and if any such offsets or defenses are alleged to exist, the nature thereof shall be set forth in detail and (v) that this Indenture, the Notes, the Mortgages and the other Transaction Documents are legal, valid and binding obligations of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer and each Asset Entity or Other Entity (as applicable) and have not been modified or amended except in accordance with the provisions thereof.

(b)       Within 10 Business Days following a written request by the Co-Issuers, the Indenture Trustee shall provide to the Co-Issuers a duly acknowledged written statement setting forth the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes, the date to which interest has been paid, and whether the Indenture Trustee has provided the Co-Issuers, on behalf of itself, the Asset Entities and Other Entities, with written notice of any Event of Default. Compliance by the Indenture Trustee with the requirements of this Section shall be for informational purposes only and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

Section 7.16 Indebtedness. The Co-Issuers shall not, and shall not permit the Asset Entities or Other Entities to, create, incur, assume, guarantee, or otherwise become or remain directly or indirectly liable with respect to any Indebtedness except for the following (collectively, “Permitted Indebtedness”):

(a) The Obligations;

Section 7.20 Bankruptcy, Receivers, Similar Matters. An Obligor shall not apply for, consent to, or aid, solicit, support, or otherwise act, cooperate or collude to cause the appointment of or taking possession by, a receiver, trustee or other custodian for all or a substantial part of the assets of any other Obligor. As used in this Indenture, an “Involuntary Obligor Bankruptcy” shall mean any involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code, the BIA, the CCAA or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, in which any Obligor is a debtor or any portion of the Assets is property of the estate therein. An Obligor shall not file a petition for, consent to the filing of a petition for, or aid, solicit, support, or otherwise act, cooperate or collude to cause the filing of a petition for an Involuntary Obligor Bankruptcy. In any Involuntary Obligor Bankruptcy, the other Obligors shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, consent to the entry of any order, file any motion, or support any motion (irrespective of the subject of the motion), and such Obligors shall not file or support any plan of reorganization. In any Involuntary Obligor Bankruptcy the other Obligors shall do all things reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer to assist the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer in obtaining such relief as the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall seek, and shall in all events vote as directed by the Indenture Trustee. Without limitation of the foregoing, each such Obligor shall do all things reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee to support any motion for relief from stay or plan of reorganization proposed or supported by the Indenture Trustee.

Section 7.21 ERISA; Canadian Benefit Plans.

(a)       No Employee Benefit Plans. The Obligors (i) shall not establish, maintain, contribute to, or incur any obligation or liability under or with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan or commence making contributions to (or become obligated to make contributions to) any Employee Benefit Plan and (ii) shall not assume, or otherwise become responsible for, any obligation or liability of any other Person under or with respect to an Employee Benefit Plan (other than any obligation or liability assumed, or for which the Obligors otherwise become responsible, under the requirements of ERISA or the Code that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

(b)       Compliance with ERISA. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in material liability to the Obligors, the Obligors shall not engage in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, provided that such Obligor shall be deemed not to be in breach of this representation if such breach results solely because (i) any portion of the Notes have been, or will be, funded with plan assets of any Plan and (ii) the purchase or holding of such portion of the Notes by such Plan constitutes a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of applicable Similar Law.

(c)       No Canadian Benefit Plans. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Obligors shall not establish or commence making contributions in respect of any Canadian Benefit Plan or Canadian Pension Plan provided that in no event shall the Obligors establish a Canadian Pension Plan that has a defined benefit provision, or commence making contributions to (or become obligated to make contributions to) any Canadian Pension Plan that has a defined benefit provision. For purposes of this subsection, “defined benefit provision” has the meaning set out in section 147.1 of the Income Tax Act (Canada) as amended from time to time.

(d)       Compliance with Canadian Benefit Plans. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Obligors shall ensure that each Canadian Benefit Plan and Canadian Pension Plan is administered in accordance with its terms and applicable law. In particular, the Obligors shall ensure that all contributions that are required to be made to any Canadian Pension Plan are timely made on or before the due date under any applicable pension standards laws.

Section 7.22 Money for Payments to be Held in Trust.

(a)       The Paying Agent is hereby authorized to pay the principal of and interest on any Notes (as well as any other Obligation hereunder and under any other Transaction Document) on behalf of the Co-Issuers and shall have an office or agency in Wilmington, Delaware where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment and where notices, designations or requests in respect for payments with respect to the Notes and any other Obligations due hereunder and under any other Transaction Document may be served. The Co-Issuers hereby appoint the Indenture Trustee as the initial Paying Agent for amounts due on the Notes of each Series and the other Obligations.

116

(b)       On each Payment Date (or such other dates as may be required or permitted hereunder) the Paying Agent shall cause all payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes and other Obligations that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from any Collection Account or Sub-Account to be made on behalf of the Co-Issuers, and no amounts so withdrawn from such Collection Account or Sub-Account for payments of the Notes and other Obligations shall be paid over to the Co-Issuers. All such payments shall be made based on information set forth in the Servicing Report or, if applicable, an Omitted Payable Sum Certification.

(c)       Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheatment of funds, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Co-Issuers on an Issuer Request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Co-Issuers for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Co-Issuers), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment shall at the expense and direction of the Co-Issuers cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Co- Issuers. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Co-Issuers, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose right to or interest in monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder).

Section 7.23 Ground Leases.

(a)           Modification. Except as provided in this Section 7.23, the Asset Entities shall not modify or amend any Ground Lease Term of any Ground Lease, or terminate or surrender any Ground Lease, without the prior written consent of the Servicer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any such attempted or purported modification or amendment or termination or surrender of any Ground Lease without the Servicer’s prior written consent shall be null and void and of no force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Asset Entities shall be permitted, without the Servicer’s consent, to:

(i)       (A) extend the term of a Ground Lease or add a renewal term or option period to a Ground Lease, in each case on terms and conditions in accordance with prudent business practices or (B) convert any Ground Lease Data Center to a Data Center owned in fee; and

117

(ii)       provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and is then continuing (unless the same shall cure such Event of Default), increase, decrease or reconfigure the area of real property covered by a Ground Lease, and in connection therewith amend and restate the existing Ground Lease or replace the existing Ground Lease (either, an “Amended Ground Lease”), to include such additional real property or reflect such decrease or reconfiguration; provided that such Amended Ground Lease is on commercially reasonable substantive and economic terms (taking into consideration the additional, reduced or reconfigured real property covered by the Amended Ground Lease) with no material reduction in the economic value of the applicable Data Center, and subject to the following conditions:

(A)       if additional real property is being added to the Ground Lease, on or prior to execution and delivery of the Amended Ground Lease, the Asset Entities shall have delivered electronically to the Indenture Trustee and provided the Servicer with electronic access to the most recent Phase I environmental report obtained by the Asset Entities or any Affiliate thereof on such real property, together with a Phase II Environmental Assessment report (if such Phase I environmental report reveals any condition that in the Servicer’s reasonable judgment warrants such a report) which concludes that such real property does not contain any Hazardous Materials in material violation of applicable Environmental Laws;

(B)       within 120 days of the execution and delivery of the Amended Ground Lease, (x) the Indenture Trustee shall have received an endorsement to (or replacement of) the existing Title Policy covering such Data Center insuring the Lien of the Amended Mortgage in an amount equal to 100% of the Allocated Note Amount with respect to such Data Center dated as of the date of the Amended Ground Lease and (y) the Title Company issuing such Title Policy shall have received an amended Mortgage encumbering the property included under the Amended Ground Lease to be submitted for recording in the appropriate office of real property records and a Survey with respect to such Data Center (unless the general survey exception in the Title Policy for such Data Center is eliminated without a Survey with respect thereto); and

(C)       the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, shall pay or reimburse the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in connection with such Amended Ground Lease, and all recording charges, filing fees, taxes or other expenses (including, without limitation, mortgage and intangibles taxes and documentary stamp taxes) payable in connection therewith.

118

(b)       Performance of Ground Leases. The Asset Entities shall fully perform as and when due each and all of their obligations under each Ground Lease in accordance with the terms of such Ground Lease, and shall not cause or suffer to occur any material breach or default in any of such obligations. The Asset Entities shall exercise any option to renew or extend any Ground Lease; provided, however that, the Asset Entities may elect not to exercise such option to renew or extend such Ground Lease as long as the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, shall give the Servicer 30 days’ prior written notice thereof. If any Asset Entity fails to renew a Ground Lease which is required to be renewed pursuant to this Section 7.23(b), each of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall have the right, but the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation, to renew such Ground Lease on behalf of such Asset Entity. For the avoidance of doubt, the Asset Entities shall have no obligation to renew a Ground Lease that expires by its terms if the Ground Lease does not provide to the applicable Asset Entity an extension option.

(c)       Notice of Default. If an Obligor shall receive any written notice that any default under a Ground Lease has occurred, the effect of which, in such Obligor’s reasonable opinion, is likely to result in the termination of such Ground Lease (a “Ground Lease Default”), then the Co-Issuers shall, within three Business Days of receipt of such notice, notify the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Managers in writing of the same and deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer a true and complete copy of such notice. Further, the Co-Issuers shall provide such documents and information as the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall reasonably request concerning any Ground Lease Default.

(d)       Servicer’s Right to Cure. If any Ground Lease Default shall occur and be continuing, and notice has been given pursuant to Section 7.23(c), or if any Ground Lessor asserts in writing to an Asset Entity or the Servicer that a Ground Lease Default has occurred (whether or not the Asset Entities question or deny such assertion), then, subject to (i) the terms and conditions of the applicable Ground Lease, and (ii) the Asset Entities’ right to terminate or assign the applicable Ground Lease in accordance with Section 7.23(a), the Servicer, upon 5 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Co-Issuers, unless the Servicer reasonably determines that a shorter period (or no period) of notice is necessary to protect the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the applicable Ground Lease, may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that the Servicer deems reasonably necessary, including, without limitation, (i) performance or attempted performance of the applicable Asset Entity’s obligations under the applicable Ground Lease, (ii) curing or attempting to cure any actual or purported Ground Lease Default under the applicable Ground Lease, (iii) mitigating or attempting to mitigate any damages or consequences of the same and (iv) entry upon the applicable Data Center for any or all of such purposes. Upon the Indenture Trustee’s or the Servicer’s written request, the applicable Asset Entity shall submit satisfactory evidence of payment or performance of any of its obligations under the applicable Ground Lease. The Servicer may pay and expend such sums of money as the Servicer in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable for any such purpose, and the Co-Issuers shall pay to the Servicer within 5 Business Days of the written demand of the Servicer all such sums so paid or expended by the Servicer, together with interest thereon from the date of expenditure at the rate provided for Servicing Advances in the Servicing Agreement.

119

(e)       Legal Action. The Obligors shall not commence any action or proceeding against any Ground Lessor or affecting or potentially affecting any Ground Lease or the Asset Entities’ or the Indenture Trustee’s interest therein, the effect of which could, in the Obligors’ reasonable opinion, be reasonably likely to result in an event of default under, or the termination of, any such Ground Lease, without the prior written consent of the Servicer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Co-Issuers shall notify the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer immediately if any action or proceeding shall be commenced between any Ground Lessor and any Asset Entity, or affecting or potentially affecting any Ground Lease or any Asset Entity’s or the Indenture Trustee’s interest therein (including, without limitation, any case commenced by or against any Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code). The Servicer shall have the option, exercisable upon notice from the Servicer to the Co-Issuers, to participate in any action or proceeding of which it is notified in compliance with this Section 7.23(e) with counsel of the Servicer’s choice. Each Obligor shall cooperate with the Servicer, comply with the reasonable instructions of the Servicer, execute any and all powers, authorizations, consents or other documents reasonably required by the Servicer in connection therewith, and shall not settle any such action or proceeding which could, in such Obligor’s reasonable opinion, be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect without the prior written consent of the Servicer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f)            Bankruptcy.

(i)            If any Ground Lessor shall reject any Ground Lease under or pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, without the Servicer’s prior written consent, the applicable Asset Entity shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated but shall elect to remain in possession of the applicable Ground Lease Data Center and the leasehold estate under such Ground Lease. The lien of the Mortgage covering any such Data Center does and shall encumber and attach to all of the Asset Entity’s rights and remedies at any time arising under or pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation, all of such Asset Entity’s rights to remain in possession of such Data Center and the leasehold estate.

(ii)           Each Asset Entity acknowledges and agrees that in any case commenced by or against such Asset Entity under the Bankruptcy Code, the Indenture Trustee by reason of the liens and rights granted under the Mortgage covering a Data Center that is a Ground Lease Data Center shall have a substantial and material interest in the treatment and preservation of such Asset Entity’s rights and obligations under the related Ground Lease, and that such Asset Entity shall, in any such bankruptcy case, provide to the Indenture Trustee immediate and continuous reasonably adequate protection of such interests. Each Asset Entity and the Indenture Trustee agree that such adequate protection shall include but shall not necessarily be limited to the following:

(A)       The Indenture Trustee shall be deemed a party to the Ground Lease (but shall not have any obligations thereunder) for purposes of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and shall, provided that, prior to an Event of Default, no such action by the Indenture Trustee would adversely and materially affect the Asset Entity’s ability to prosecute, or defend, any such claims asserted therein, have standing to appear and act as a party in interest in relation to any matter arising out of or related to the Ground Lease or Ground Lease Data Center.

120

(B)       Such Asset Entity shall serve the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer with copies of all notices, pleadings and other documents relating to or affecting the Ground Lease or the applicable Ground Lease Data Center. Such Asset Entity (i) will contemporaneously serve on the Indenture Trustee and Servicer any notice, pleading or document served by such Asset Entity on any other party in the bankruptcy case, and (ii) any notice, pleading or document served upon or received by such Asset Entity from any other party in the bankruptcy case to be served by such Asset Entity on the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer promptly upon receipt by such Asset Entity.

(C)       Upon written request of the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, such Asset Entity shall assume the Ground Lease, and shall take such steps as are necessary to preserve such Asset Entity’s right to assume the Ground Lease, including without limitation using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain extensions of time to assume or reject the Ground Lease under Section 365(d) of the Bankruptcy Code to the extent it is applicable.

(g)           If an Asset Entity or the applicable Ground Lessor seeks to reject any Ground Lease or have the Ground Lease deemed rejected, then prior to the hearing on such rejection such Asset Entity shall give the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, subject to applicable law, no less than 20 days’ notice and opportunity to elect in lieu of rejection to have the Ground Lease assumed and assigned to a nominee of the Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee shall (which shall be at the Servicer’s direction) so elect to assume and assign the Ground Lease, such Asset Entity shall, subject to applicable law, continue any request to reject the Ground Lease until after the motion to assume and assign has been heard. If the Indenture Trustee shall not elect (which shall be at the Servicer’s direction) to assume and assign the Ground Lease, then the Indenture Trustee may, subject to applicable law, obtain in connection with the rejection of the Ground Lease a determination that the applicable Ground Lessor, at the Indenture Trustee’s option (which shall be at the Servicer’s direction), shall (1) agree to terminate the Ground Lease and enter into a new lease with the Indenture Trustee on the same terms and conditions as the Ground Lease, for the remaining term of the Ground Lease, or (2) treat the Ground Lease as breached and provide the Indenture Trustee with the rights to cure defaults under the Ground Lease and to assume the rights and benefits of the Ground Lease.

Each Asset Entity agrees to join with and support any request by the Indenture Trustee to grant and approve the foregoing as necessary for adequate protection of the Indenture Trustee’s interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee may seek additional terms and conditions, including such economic and monetary protections as it or the Servicer deems reasonably appropriate to adequately protect its interests, and any request for such additional terms or conditions shall not delay or limit the Indenture Trustee’s right to receive the specific elements of adequate protection set forth herein.

Each Asset Entity hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its attorney in fact to act on behalf of such Asset Entity in connection with all matters relating to or arising out of the assumption or rejection of any Ground Lease, in which the other party to the lease is a debtor in a case under the Bankruptcy Code. This grant of power of attorney is present, unconditional, irrevocable, durable and coupled with an interest.

(f)       Breach of Warranty. Any representation, warranty, certification or other statement made by any Guarantor or Obligor in any Transaction Document or in any statement or certificate at any time given in writing pursuant to or in connection with any Transaction Document is false as of the date made and such breach is reasonably likely to cause a Material Adverse Effect, provided that such breach shall not constitute an Event of Default if such breach is reasonably susceptible of cure and within 45 days after (i) any Guarantor or Obligor has Knowledge of such breach or (ii) receipt by the applicable Guarantor or the applicable Obligor, as the case may be, of written notice from a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer (with a copy to the Indenture Trustee) of such breach, such Guarantor or such Obligor, as the case may be, takes such action as may be required to make such representation, warranty, certification or other statement to be true as made;

No Affiliate of the Co-Issuers may act as Controlling Class Representative. In the event that the Class A Notes are the Controlling Class, the Controlling Class will be comprised of all Class A Notes, collectively, based on the outstanding principal amounts of such Class A Notes (assuming the full amount of the Class A-1 Commitment Amount that is permitted to be drawn on such date is fully drawn).

(b)       Within 10 Business Days (or as soon thereafter as practicable if the Controlling Class consists of Book-Entry Notes) of any change in the identity of the Controlling Class Representative of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Knowledge, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the Noteholders of the Controlling Class and the Servicer a notice setting forth the identity of the new Controlling Class Representative and a list of each Noteholder of the Controlling Class, including, in each case, names and addresses. With respect to such information, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on information provided to it by the Noteholders (or, in the case of Book-Entry Notes, by the Depositary, the Depositary Participants or, subject to Section 2.06, the Note Owners) of such Notes, and the Servicer shall be entitled to rely on the information provided in the notice by the Indenture Trustee regarding the identity of the Controlling Class Representative with respect to any obligation or right hereunder that the Servicer may have to deliver information or otherwise communicate with the Controlling Class Representative or any of the Noteholders (or, if applicable, Note Owners) of the Controlling Class. In addition to the foregoing, within two Business Days of the selection, resignation or removal of a Controlling Class Representative, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the parties to this Indenture of such event.

136

(c)       A Controlling Class Representative may at any time resign as such by giving written notice to the Indenture Trustee and to each Noteholder (or, in the case of Book-Entry Notes, each Note Owner) of the Controlling Class. The Noteholders (or, in the case of Book-Entry Notes, the Note Owners) of the Controlling Class whose Outstanding Notes represent more than 50.0% of the Class Principal Balance of the Controlling Class shall be entitled to remove any existing Controlling Class Representative by giving written notice to the Indenture Trustee and to such existing Controlling Class Representative.

(d)       Once a Controlling Class Representative has been selected pursuant to this Section 10.05, each of the parties to the Servicing Agreement and each Noteholder (or Note Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless a majority of the Noteholders (or, in the case of Book-Entry Notes, the Note Owners) of the Controlling Class, by Class Principal Balance, or such Controlling Class Representative, as applicable, shall have notified the Indenture Trustee and each other party to the Servicing Agreement and each Noteholder (or, in the case of Book-Entry Notes, Note Owner) of the Controlling Class, in writing, of the resignation or removal of such Controlling Class Representative.

(e)       Any and all expenses of the Controlling Class Representative shall be borne by the Noteholders (or, if applicable, the Note Owners) of Notes of the Controlling Class, pro rata according to their respective Percentage Interests in such Class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a claim is made against the Controlling Class Representative by a Guarantor or Obligor with respect to the Servicing Agreement or the Notes, the Controlling Class Representative shall immediately notify the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, whereupon (if the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee are also named parties to the same action and, in the sole judgment of the Servicer, (i) the Controlling Class Representative had acted in good faith, without gross negligence or willful misconduct, with regard to the particular matter at issue, and there is no potential for the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee to be an adverse party in such action as regards the Controlling Class Representative) the Servicer on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders shall, subject to the Servicing Agreement, assume the defense of any such claim against the Controlling Class Representative (with any costs incurred in connection therewith being deemed to be reimbursable Additional Issuer Expenses).

Section 10.06 Certain Rights and Powers of the Controlling Class Representative.

(a)       At any time that the Servicer proposes to transfer the ownership of a Data Center or the ownership of the direct or indirect equity interests of any of the Asset Entities, the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to advise the Servicer with respect to such transfer, and notwithstanding anything in any other Section of this Indenture to the contrary, but in all cases subject to Section 10.06(b), the Servicer shall not be permitted to take such action if the Controlling Class Representative has objected in writing within 10 Business Days of having been notified thereof and having been provided with information with respect thereto reasonably requested no later than the fifth Business Day after notice thereof (provided, that if such written objection has not been received by the Servicer within such 10 Business Day period, then the Controlling Class Representative’s approval will be deemed to have been given).

137

If the Controlling Class Representative affirmatively approves or is deemed to have approved in writing such a request, the Servicer will implement the action for which approval was sought. If the Controlling Class Representative disapproves of such a request within the 10 Business Day period referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Servicer must (unless it withdraws the request) revise the request and deliver to the Controlling Class Representative a revised request promptly and in any event within 30 days after such disapproval. The Servicer will be required to implement the action for which approval was most recently requested (unless such request was withdrawn by the Servicer) upon the earlier of (x) the failure of the Controlling Class Representative to disapprove a request within 10 Business Days after its receipt thereof and (y) (1) the passage of 60 days following the Servicer’s delivery of its initial request to the Controlling Class Representative and (2) the determination by the Servicer in its reasonable good faith judgment that the failure to implement the most recently requested action would violate the Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(b)       Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Servicer shall not have any right or obligation to consult with or to seek and/or obtain consent or approval from any Controlling Class Representative prior to acting, and provisions of the Servicing Agreement requiring such shall be of no effect, during the period prior to the initial selection of a Controlling Class Representative and, if any Controlling Class Representative resigns or is removed, during the period following such resignation or removal until a replacement is selected and (ii) no advice, direction or objection from or by the Controlling Class Representative, as contemplated by Section 10.06(a), may (A) require or cause the Servicer to violate applicable law, the terms of the Notes or any provision of the Servicing Agreement, including the Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, (B) expose the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, members, managers, employees, agents or partners, or the Indenture Trustee, to any claim, suit or liability, or (C) materially expand the scope of the Servicer’s responsibilities under the Servicing Agreement. In addition, the Controlling Class Representative may not prevent the Servicer from transferring the ownership of a Data Center or the ownership of any of the direct or indirect equity or partnership interests of the Co-Issuers or any of the Asset Entities (including by way of foreclosure on the equity or partnership interests of the Co-Issuers or the direct or indirect equity interests of Asset Entities) if any Advance is outstanding and the Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such foreclosure would be in the best interest of the Noteholders (taken as a whole).

The Controlling Class Representative shall not be liable to the Noteholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, in good faith pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Controlling Class Representative shall not be protected against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties under the Servicing Agreement. Each Noteholder and Note Owner acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Notes or interest therein, that the Controlling Class Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Noteholders and Note Owners of one or more Classes of Notes, that the Controlling Class Representative may act solely in the interests of the Noteholders and Note Owners of the Controlling Class, that the Controlling Class Representative does not have any duties to the Noteholders and Note Owners of any Class of Notes other than the Controlling Class, that the Controlling Class Representative may take actions that favor the interests of the Noteholders and Note Owners of the Controlling Class over the interests of the Noteholders and Note Owners of one or more other Classes of Notes, that the Controlling Class Representative will not be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misconduct by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Controlling Class and that the Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Noteholder may take any action whatsoever against the Controlling Class Representative for having so acted or against any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

138

Section 10.07 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee.

(a)       Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02, upon the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 10.02, the Co-Issuers shall pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the relevant Notes and in addition thereto all other Obligations, including, but not limited to, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel and other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 11.06.

(b)       Subject to the provisions of Section 10.02 and Section 15.18, in case the Co-Issuers shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf), in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Co-Issuers or the other Obligors and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Co-Issuers or the other Obligors wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

(c)       Subject to the provisions of Section 15.18, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) may, as more particularly provided in Section 10.08, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or any Series Supplement or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture or any Series Supplement, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) by this Indenture or any Series Supplement or by law.

139

(d)       In case there shall be pending, relative to the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or any other Obligor, proceedings under any applicable federal, provincial, territorial, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or any other Obligor or the property of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or any other Obligor, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer, or any other Obligor, or to the creditors or property of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or any other Obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

(i)       to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of Notes, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 11.06 and all other amounts due and owing to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

(ii)      unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf and, at the direction of the Noteholders, in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings;

(iii)     to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to pay all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and

(iv)      to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or any other Obligor, the creditors of the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or any other Obligor and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other amounts due and owing to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 11.06 and all other amounts due and owing to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement.

(e)       Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any Series Supplement shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any such Noteholder in any such Proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person and be a member of a creditors’ or other similar committee.

140

(f)       Subject to the provisions of Section 15.18, all rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture or in any Series Supplement, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee may be brought in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements, advances, amounts owed to and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the benefit of the Noteholders.

(g)       In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture or any Series Supplement to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

Section 10.08 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) may do one or more of the following (subject to Section 10.02, Section 10.09, and Section 15.18):

(i)       institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or under this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained and collect from the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer and any other Obligor upon such Notes, this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document monies adjudged due;

(ii)      institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture or any Series Supplement with respect to the Trust Estate;

(iii)      exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under applicable law of any relevant jurisdiction or in equity and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders;

(iv)     sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law;

(v)      without notice to the Co-Issuers, except as required by law and as otherwise provided in this Indenture, and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Collateral against the Obligations or any part thereof; and

141

(vi)      demand, collect, take possession of, receive, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose or realize upon the Collateral (or any portion thereof) as the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) may determine.

Section 10.09 Optional Preservation of the Trust Estate. If the maturity of the Notes has been accelerated under Section 10.02 following an Event of Default, and such acceleration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, with the written consent of Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes, elect to maintain possession of the Trust Estate and apply proceeds as if there had been no declaration of acceleration. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may at the Co-Issuers’ expense, but need not, obtain and shall be protected in relying upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of international reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

Section 10.10 Limitation of Suits. Subject to the provisions of Section 15.18, no Noteholder shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or any Series Supplement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a)            such Holder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(b)            Noteholders by an Affirmative Direction have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

(c)            such Holder or Holders has offered to the Indenture Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

(d)            the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and

(e)            no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60 day period by Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes.

It is understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture or any Series Supplement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Noteholders or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture or any Series Supplement, except in the manner provided in this Indenture.

142

In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each representing less than a majority of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes, no action shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or any Series Supplement. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 10.10, the Indenture Trustee shall not take any action or permit any action to be taken that is inconsistent with Section 15.18.

Section 10.11 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture or any Series Supplement, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture or any Series Supplement, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

Section 10.12 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture or any Series Supplement and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

Section 10.13 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as provided herein, no right or remedy conferred in this Indenture, in any Series Supplement or in any other Transaction Document upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder, in any Series Supplement or in any other Transaction Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, in any Series Supplement, or in any other Transaction Document or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 10.14 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee (or Servicer on its behalf) or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article X or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

Section 10.15 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 10.02, Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except (i) a Default (a) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the consent of each Noteholder and (ii) before any such waiver may be effective, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer must receive any reimbursement then due or payable in respect of unreimbursed Advances (including Advance Interest thereon) or any other amounts then due to the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents (including, but not limited to, unpaid Additional Issuer Expenses, and all unpaid fees, expenses, and indemnification due to the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture or any Series Supplement; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

143

Section 10.16 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture or any Series Supplement agree, and each Holder of any Note by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or any Series Supplement, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant (other than the Co-Issuers) in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, against any party litigant (other than the Co-Issuers) in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant (other than the Co- Issuers); but the provisions of this Section 10.16 as may be modified by any Series Supplement shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, representing more than 10.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of any Note or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture or any Series Supplement.

Section 10.17 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Each Obligor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any Transaction Document; and each Obligor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted in this Indenture to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 10.18 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any Transaction Document shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any Transaction Document. No rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the Assets of the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer.

144

Section 10.19 Waiver. Each of the U.S. Co-Issuer and the Canadian Co-Issuer hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind in connection with this Indenture or the Collateral. Each of the U.S. Co-Issuer and the Canadian Co-Issuer acknowledges and agrees that 10 days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or any other intended disposition thereof shall be reasonable and sufficient notice to the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, within the meaning of the UCC.

ARTICLE XI

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

Section 11.01 Shared Facilities. At any time, and from time to time, while any of the Notes remain outstanding, at U.S. Co-Issuer’s or Canadian Co-Issuer’s direction, the Indenture Trustee shall enter into a non-disturbance agreement or other similar agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer, relating to the shared use of Shared Facilities with third parties or Affiliates of the Co-Issuers that are not Asset Entities, which agreement will provide, among other things, that in the event the Indenture Trustee commences a foreclosure or other action, or otherwise exercises any other remedies against any Obligor, the Indenture Trustee will not disturb, terminate or otherwise interfere with the rights of any third parties or Affiliates of the Co-Issuers that are not Asset Entities to use or access the Shared Facilities.

Section 11.02 Duties of Indenture Trustee.

(a)            The Indenture Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Knowledge and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of such duties. If an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Knowledge occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, any Series Supplement and any other Transaction Document, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of its own affairs. Any permissive right of the Indenture Trustee contained in this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document shall not be construed as a duty.

(b)            Upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document, the Indenture Trustee shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture, such Series Supplement or such other Transaction Document. If any such instrument is found not to conform on its face to the requirements of this Indenture, such Series Supplement or such other Transaction Document in a material manner, the Indenture Trustee shall request the person providing such instrument to correct such instrument. The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Co-Issuers, the Guarantors, the Asset Entities, the Other Entities, the Managers, the Servicer, any actual or prospective Noteholder or Note Owner or any Rating Agency, and accepted by the Indenture Trustee in good faith, pursuant to this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document. The Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for recomputing, recalculating, certifying or verifying any information provided by the Servicer or the Managers pertaining to any Servicing Report, Monthly Report, any other report, distribution statement, Officer’s Certificate, instrument or document.

145

(c)            No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:

(i)         Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Knowledge, and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Indenture Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture or any Series Supplement and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture or any Series Supplement against the Indenture Trustee.

(ii)        In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates, reports, or opinions or other documents furnished to the Indenture Trustee.

Section 11.04 Indenture Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee (i) shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation, as to the validity, legality, enforceability, sufficiency or adequacy of this Indenture, any Series Supplement, any other Transaction Document or the Notes or as to the correctness of any statement contained therein and (ii) shall not be accountable for the U.S. Co-Issuer’s or the Canadian Co-Issuer’s use of the Notes, the proceeds from the Notes, or responsible for any statement of the U.S. Co-Issuer and the Canadian Co-Issuer in this Indenture, any Series Supplement, any other Transaction Document or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes shall be construed as the statements of the Co-Issuers.

Section 11.05 Indenture Trustee May Own Notes. The Indenture Trustee (in its individual or any other capacity) or any of its respective Affiliates may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with (except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Noteholder”) the same rights it would have if it were not the Indenture Trustee or one of its Affiliates, as the case may be.

Section 11.06 Fees and Expenses of Indenture Trustee; Indemnification of the Indenture Trustee.

(a)           On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw funds on deposit in the Collection Accounts and pay to itself pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(ii) the Indenture Trustee Fee due on such Payment Date as compensation for all services rendered by the Indenture Trustee hereunder.

(b)           The Indenture Trustee and any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees or agents shall be entitled to be indemnified and held harmless out of the funds available therefor pursuant to Section 5.01(a) for and against any fee, loss, liability, claim, costs or expense (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, including those incurred in connection with any enforcement, claim or action brought by any such person of any indemnification or other obligation of the Co-Issuers or any other Person pursuant to the Transaction Documents) arising out of, or incurred in connection with, this Indenture, the Notes, (unless, in the case of the Indenture Trustee, it incurs any such expense or liability in the capacity of successor servicer, in which case such expense or liability will be reimbursable thereto in the same manner as it would be for any other Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Agreement) or any act or omission of the Indenture Trustee relating to the exercise and performance of any of the rights and duties of the Indenture Trustee hereunder or any other Transaction Document; provided, however, that none of the Indenture Trustee or any of the other above specified Persons shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Section 11.06(b) for (1) any expense that constitutes allocable overhead, such as costs for office space, office equipment, supplies and related expenses, employee salaries and related expenses and similar internal costs and expenses or (2) any loss, liability, damage, claim or expense by reason of any breach on the part of the Indenture Trustee of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or any willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of such Person’s obligations and duties hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Co-Issuers agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee and its Affiliates from and against any liability (including for taxes, penalties or interest asserted by any taxing jurisdiction) arising from amounts on deposit in the Collection Accounts or any income in respect thereof. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Co-Issuers promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Co-Issuers shall not relieve the Co-Issuers of their obligations hereunder. To the extent the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) renders services or incurs expenses after an Event of Default specified in Section 10.01(g) or Section 10.01(h), the compensation for services and expenses incurred by it are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal, provincial, territorial, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect. The Indenture Trustee (for itself and on behalf of the Servicer) shall have a lien on the Collateral, as governed by this Indenture, to secure the obligations of the Co-Issuers under this Section 11.06.

151

(c)           Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(d)           This Section 11.06 shall survive the termination or assignment of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee as regards rights and obligations prior to such termination, resignation or removal.

Section 11.07 Eligibility Requirements for Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee hereunder shall not be an Affiliate of the Servicer or any Asset Entity (unless the Indenture Trustee is a successor servicer) and shall at all times be a corporation, bank, trust company or association that: (i) is organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers; (ii) has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000; and (iii) is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority.

In addition: (i) the Indenture Trustee shall at all times meet the requirements of Section 26(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act; and (ii) the Indenture Trustee may not have any affiliations or act in any other capacity with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby that would cause PTE 90-24 or PTE 93-31 (in each case as amended by PTE 2000-58 and PTE 2002-41) to be unavailable with respect to any Class of Notes that it would otherwise be available in respect of. Furthermore, the Indenture Trustee shall at all times maintain (or shall have caused to have been appointed a fiscal agent that at all times maintains) a long-term unsecured debt rating of no less than a rating commonly regarded as “investment grade” from Moody’s and a short-term unsecured debt rating of no less than a rating commonly regarded as “investment grade” from Moody’s, and a long-term unsecured debt rating of no less than a rating commonly regarded as “investment grade” by Fitch Ratings Inc.

Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Co-Issuers shall use their best efforts to promptly appoint a successor indenture trustee meeting the eligibility requirements of Section 11.07 by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Indenture Trustee and to the successor indenture trustee.

(b)           If at any time the Indenture Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.07 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Co-Issuers, the Managers or the Servicer, or if at any time the Indenture Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Indenture Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Indenture Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or if the Indenture Trustee’s continuing to act in such capacity would (as confirmed in writing to the Co-Issuers by any Rating Agency) result in the qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the rating then assigned to any Class of Notes rated by such Rating Agency (or the placing of such Class of Notes on negative credit watch or ratings outlook negative status in contemplation of any such action with respect thereto), then the Co-Issuers or Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes may remove the Indenture Trustee and appoint a successor indenture trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee so removed and to the successor indenture trustee. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the other parties to this Indenture and the Servicer by the Co-Issuers.

(c)           Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes may at any time (with or without cause) remove the Indenture Trustee and appoint a successor indenture trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to each of the Co-Issuers, one complete set to the Indenture Trustee so removed, and one complete set to the successor indenture trustee so appointed. All expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with its transfer of all documents relating to the Notes to a successor indenture trustee following the removal of the Indenture Trustee without cause pursuant to this Section 11.08(c) shall be reimbursed to the removed Indenture Trustee within 30 days of demand therefor, such reimbursement to be made by the Noteholders that terminated the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that if such Noteholders do not reimburse the Indenture Trustee within such 30 day period, such expenses shall be reimbursed as Additional Issuer Expenses. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the other parties to this Indenture and the Servicer by the successor indenture trustee so appointed.

153

(d)           Any resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor indenture trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 11.08 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor indenture trustee as provided in Section 11.09.

(a)           Any successor indenture trustee appointed as provided in Section 11.08 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Co-Issuers, the Servicer and its predecessor indenture trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor indenture trustee shall become effective and such successor indenture trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all of the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as indenture trustee herein. The predecessor indenture trustee shall deliver to the successor indenture trustee all documents relating to the Notes held by it hereunder, and the Co-Issuers, the Servicer and the predecessor indenture trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully and certainly vest and confirm in the successor indenture trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations, and to enable the successor indenture trustee to perform its obligations hereunder.

No co-indenture trustee or separate indenture trustee hereunder shall be deemed an agent of the Indenture Trustee or be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor indenture trustee under Section 11.07, and no notice to holders of Notes of the appointment of co-indenture trustee(s) or separate indenture trustee(s) shall be required under Section 11.09.

(b)           In the case of any appointment of a co-indenture trustee or separate indenture trustee pursuant to this Section 11.11, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate indenture trustee or co-indenture trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Indenture Trustee hereunder or when acting as successor servicer under the Servicing Agreement), the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such separate indenture trustee or co-indenture trustee solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee.

(c)           Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate indenture trustees and co-indenture trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate indenture trustee or co-indenture trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article XI. Each separate indenture trustee and co-indenture 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 Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all of the provisions of this Indenture and any Series Supplement, specifically including every provision of this Indenture and any Series Supplement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

Section 11.13 Quebec Hypothecary Representative. For the purposes of the hypothecs which may now or in the future be required to be provided by any Obligor under the laws of the Province of Quebec, each of the Noteholders hereby irrevocably authorises appoints and designates each Indenture Trustee (and successor thereto) to act as the hypothecary representative (“fondé de pouvoir”) within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec for all present and future Noteholders and other creditors of the Obligations (in such capacity the “Hypothecary Representative”) in order to hold any hypothec granted under the laws of the Province of Quebec as security for the Obligations and to exercise such rights and duties as are conferred upon the Hypothecary Representative under the relevant deed of hypothec and applicable laws (with the power to delegate any such rights or duties). The execution prior to the date hereof by the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as the Hypothecary Representative of any deed of hypothec or other security documents made pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec is hereby ratified and confirmed. Any Person who becomes a Noteholder or other creditor of the Obligations shall be deemed to have consented to and ratified the foregoing appointment of the Indenture Trustee as the Hypothecary Representative on behalf of all Noteholders and other creditors of the Obligations. For greater certainty, the Indenture Trustee acting as the Hypothecary Representative, shall have the same rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favour of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. In the event of the resignation of the Indenture Trustee (which shall include its resignation as Hypothecary Representative) and appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee, such successor Indenture Trustee shall also act as the Hypothecary Representative on behalf of the Noteholders and other creditors of the Obligations, as contemplated above. Each such successor Indenture Trustee without further act or formality (other than the filing of a notice of replacement in the applicable register in accordance with Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec for the purposes of exercising the rights relating to any hypothec) shall automatically become the successor Hypothecary Representative under each then existing deed of hypothec. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this provision shall be governed and construed under the internal laws of the Province of Quebec.

Section 12.02 Preservation of Information; Communications to Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall cause the Note Registrar to preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders of Definitive Notes received by the Note Registrar and the names and addresses of the Holders of Definitive Notes contained in the most recent list furnished to the Indenture Trustee as provided in Section 12.01.

Section 12.03 Voting by Noteholders.

(a)           100% of the Voting Rights will be allocated among the respective Classes of Notes according to the ratio of the Class Principal Balance of each Class of Outstanding Notes to the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes. Voting Rights allocated to a Class of Notes will be allocated among the Notes of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interest in such Class evidenced thereby. Notes held by the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer or any of their Affiliates shall be deemed not to be Outstanding in determining Voting Rights. In the event that the Class A Notes are the Controlling Class, the Controlling Class will be comprised of all Class A Notes, collectively, based on the outstanding principal amounts of such Class A Notes (assuming the full amount of the Class A-1 Commitment Amount that is permitted to be drawn on such date is fully drawn).

Noteholders may communicate pursuant to Section 3.12(b) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture, any Series Supplement or the Notes. If any Noteholder makes written request to the Note Registrar, and such request states that such Noteholder desires to communicate with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Notes and such request is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such Noteholder proposes to transmit, then the Note Registrar shall, within 30 days after the receipt of such request, afford the requesting Noteholder access during normal business hours to, or deliver to the requesting Noteholder a copy of, the most recent list of Noteholders held by the Note Registrar (which list shall be current as of a date no earlier than 30 days prior to the Note Registrar’s receipt of such request).

In addition, the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may, without the consent of the Noteholders, enter into any amendment of any other Transaction Document with the parties to such Transaction Document or provide its consent to any amendment of any other Transaction Document, in each case in accordance with the terms of such Transaction Document; provided, that (x) either (1) such amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder (as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation) or (2) the Indenture Trustee shall have received the consent of the Noteholders as and to the same extent such consent would be required for an Indenture Supplement pursuant to Section 13.02, and (y) such amendment will not diminish any rights or remedies or increase any liabilities or obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement or under any other Transaction Document without the consent of the Servicer; provided that any consent by the Indenture Trustee required by the provisions of Section 9(j)(ii) of the limited liability company agreement of the U.S. Co-Issuer or of the U.S. Guarantor shall require the prior direction of Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the aggregate Class Principal Balances of all Classes of Outstanding Notes. In executing any amendment to, or providing its consent to any amendment of, any Transaction Document in accordance with this Section 13.01, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and, subject to Section 11.03, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate of the Co-Issuers and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment or the giving of such consent is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.

Section 13.02 Indenture Supplements with Consent of Noteholders. The Co-Issuers and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, with a prior direction of Noteholders representing more than 50.0% of the Voting Rights of each Class of Notes adversely affected thereby and without prior notice to any other Noteholder, also may amend, supplement or modify this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any Notes or waive compliance by the Co-Issuers with any provision of this Indenture, any Series Supplement or the Notes; provided, however, that no such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver may, without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby (including any tax consequences) and with respect to clause (viii) below, without the consent of the Servicer:

(i)        change the Anticipated Repayment Date for any Series or the Rated Final Payment Date for any Series;

(iii)       change the place of payments on the Notes of any Series on any Payment Date, the Anticipated Repayment Date for such Series or the Rated Final Payment Date for such Series;

(iv)       change the coin or currency in which the principal of any Note or interest thereon is payable;

(v)        impair the right of a Noteholder to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Note on or after the maturity thereof;

(vi)       reduce the percentage of the unpaid principal balances of any of the Notes, the consent of whose Holders is required for such amendment or eliminate the requirement that affected Noteholders consent to any amendment;

(vii)     change any obligation of the Co-Issuers to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes set forth in this Indenture;

(viii)    diminish any rights or remedies or increase any liabilities or obligations of the Servicer hereunder, under the Servicing Agreement or under any other Transaction Document; or

(ix)       permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on parity with the lien of the Noteholders with respect to the Collateral or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated in this Indenture or any Series Supplement terminate the lien of the Noteholders on such Collateral or deprive the Noteholders of the security afforded by such.

In determining whether a proposed amendment would adversely affect any Class of Notes, the Indenture Trustee may rely conclusively on and shall be fully protected in relying on a certificate of an Executive Officer of the Co-Issuers.

It shall not be necessary for any Act of the Noteholders under this Section 13.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed Indenture Supplement, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.02, a Series Supplement entered into for the purpose of issuing Additional Notes the issuance of which complies with the terms of this Indenture shall not require the consent of any Noteholder.

Promptly after the execution by the Co-Issuers and the Indenture Trustee of any Indenture Supplement pursuant to this Section 13.02, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes and the Servicer a copy of such Indenture Supplement. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such Indenture Supplement.

163

Section 13.03 Execution of Indenture Supplements. In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any Indenture Supplement permitted by this Article XIII or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and, subject to Section 11.03, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate of the Co-Issuers and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such Indenture Supplement is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to (and with respect to the Servicer shall not, except as permitted by the Servicing Agreement), enter into any such Indenture Supplement that affects the Indenture Trustee’s (or with respect to the Servicer, the Servicer’s) own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

ARTICLE XIV

PLEDGE OF OTHER COMPANY COLLATERAL

Section 14.01 Grant of Security Interest/UCC and PPSA Collateral. Each Obligor hereby grants to the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders, a security interest in and to all of its fixtures (as defined in the UCC or PPSA, as applicable), personal property and other property whether now owned or hereafter acquired and wherever located, including, but not limited to the following: all (i) equipment (as defined in the UCC) or goods other than inventory (as defined in the PPSA) (as applicable), all parts thereof and all accessions thereto, including but not limited to machinery, computer equipment, switches, furniture, motor vehicles, aircraft and rolling stock, (ii) fixtures, all substitutes and replacements therefor, all accessions and attachments thereto, and all tools, parts and equipment now or hereafter added to or used in connection with the fixtures (including, without limitation, proceeds which constitute property of the types described herein), (iii) accounts (as defined in the UCC or PPSA, as applicable), (iv) inventory (as defined in the UCC or PPSA, as applicable), (v) general intangibles, or intangibles (as defined in the UCC or PPSA, as applicable), (vi) investment property (as defined in the UCC or PPSA, as applicable), (vii) deposit accounts (as defined in the UCC), (viii) instruments and chattel paper (each as defined in the UCC or PPSA, as applicable), (ix) 100% of the ownership interests in each Asset Entity and Other Entity, (x) each written contract or agreement, or series of related written agreements, by any Obligor relating to the ownership, management, use, operation, co-location, leasing, maintenance, repair or improvement of the Data Centers (including all rights to payment thereunder, but excluding any other rights that cannot be assigned without third-party consent under such agreement), (xi) Tenant Leases, with respect to Data Center Space located in the Data Centers, and the proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the “Other Company Collateral”), as security for payment and performance of all of the Obligations. The Other Company Collateral shall not include any fixtures, equipment or other property owned by any Tenant or any other third-party.

164

The Co-Issuers, the Asset Entities and the Other Entities hereby authorize the Indenture Trustee (without obligation) to file such financing statements as the Indenture Trustee shall deem reasonably necessary to perfect the Indenture Trustee’s, on behalf of the Noteholders, interest in the Other Company Collateral. The Co-Issuers and the Asset Entities authorize the Indenture Trustee to use the collateral description “all personal property” or similar variation in any such financing statements. The Co-Issuers, the Asset Entities and the Other Entities hereby ratify and authorize the filing by the Indenture Trustee of any financing statement with respect to the Other Company Collateral made prior to the date hereof.

If the grant of the security interests with respect to any contract, intellectual property right or permit hereunder would result in the termination or breach of such contract, intellectual property right or permit, or is otherwise prohibited or ineffective (whether by the terms thereof or under applicable law), then such contract, intellectual property right or permit shall not be subject to the security interests but shall be held in trust by the applicable Obligor for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee (for its own benefit and for the benefit of the Noteholders) and, on the exercise by the Indenture Trustee of any of its rights or remedies under this Indenture following an Event of Default shall be assigned by such Obligor as directed by the Indenture Trustee. In addition, the security interests granted hereby do not attach to consumer goods (as defined in the PPSA) or extend to the last day of the term of any lease or agreement for lease of real property. Such last day shall be held by the applicable Obligor in trust for the Indenture Trustee (for its own benefit and for the benefit of the Noteholders) and, on the exercise by the Indenture Trustee of any of its rights or remedies under this Indenture following an Event of Default, shall be assigned by such Obligor as directed by the Indenture Trustee.

Each Obligor confirms that value has been given by the Noteholders to such Obligor, that such Obligor has rights in its Collateral existing at the date of this Indenture, and that such Obligor and the Indenture Trustee have not agreed to postpone the time for attachment of the Security Interests to any of the Collateral of such Obligor.

165

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee shall have all rights and remedies pertaining to the Other Company Collateral as are provided for in any of the Transaction Documents or under any applicable law including the Indenture Trustee’s rights of enforcement with respect to the Other Company Collateral or any part thereof, exercising its rights of enforcement with respect to the Other Company Collateral or any part thereof under the PPSAs, UCC (or under the Uniform Commercial Code in force in any other state to the extent the same is applicable law) and in conjunction with, in addition to, or in substitution for, such rights and remedies of the following:

(a)           The Indenture Trustee may enter upon the premises of an Obligor to take possession of, assemble and collect the Other Company Collateral or to render it unusable.

(b)           The Indenture Trustee may require an Obligor to assemble the Other Company Collateral and make it available at a place the Indenture Trustee designates which is mutually convenient to allow the Indenture Trustee to take possession or dispose of the Other Company Collateral.

(c)           To the extent a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has Knowledge thereof, written notice mailed to the Co-Issuers as provided herein at least 5 days prior to the date of public sale of the Other Company Collateral or prior to the date after which private sale of the Other Company Collateral will be made shall constitute reasonable notice.

(d)           In the event of a foreclosure sale, the Other Company Collateral and the other Collateral may, at the option of the Indenture Trustee, be sold as a whole.

(e)           It shall not be necessary that the Indenture Trustee take possession of the Other Company Collateral or any part thereof prior to the time that any sale pursuant to the provisions of this section is conducted and it shall not be necessary that the Other Company Collateral or any part thereof be present at the location of such sale.

(f)           Prior to application of proceeds of disposition of the Other Company Collateral to the Obligations, such proceeds shall be applied to the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or lease, selling, leasing and the like and the reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee.

(g)           Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any bill of sale or assignment or other instrument evidencing any foreclosure sale hereunder as to nonpayment of the Obligations or as to the occurrence of any default, or as to the Indenture Trustee having declared all Obligations to be due and payable, or as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and of the properties to be sold having been duly given, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by the Indenture Trustee, shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited.

(h)           The Indenture Trustee may appoint or delegate any one or more persons as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale held by the Indenture Trustee, including the sending of notices and the conduct of the sale, but in the name and on behalf of the Indenture Trustee.

(b)           Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or Opinion of Counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such Officer’s Certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, unless such officer or officers of the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, or such counsel, knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

(c)           Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, comments, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

(d)           Whenever in this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Co-Issuers and/or the Asset Entities shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the U.S. Co-Issuer’s, the Canadian Co-Issuer’s and/or the Asset Entities’ compliance with any term hereof, in any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Co-Issuers and/or the Asset Entities to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s or Servicer’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article XI.

168

Section 15.03 Acts of Noteholders.

(a)           Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture or any Series Supplement to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture or in any Series Supplement such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Co-Issuers. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied in this Indenture or in any Series Supplement and evidenced thereby) are sometimes referred to in this Indenture as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture or any Series Supplement and (subject to Article XI) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Co-Issuers, if made in the manner provided in this Section 15.03.

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

(c)           The ownership, principal balance and serial numbers of the Notes, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Note Register.

(d)           If the Co-Issuers shall solicit from Noteholders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Co-Issuers may, at their option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Noteholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Co-Issuers shall have no obligation to do so. Any such record date shall be fixed at the Co-Issuers’ discretion. If not set by the Co-Issuers prior to the first solicitation of a Noteholder made by any Person in respect of any such matters referred to in the foregoing sentence, such record date shall be the date 30 days prior to such first solicitation of Noteholders. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent and waiver or other Act may be sought or given before or after the record date, but only the Noteholders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Noteholders for the purpose of determining whether Noteholders of the requisite proportion of the Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date.

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

(f)           Without limiting the foregoing, a Noteholder entitled hereunder or under any Series Supplement to take any action hereunder or thereunder with regard to any Note may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal balance of such Note or by one or more appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal balance of such Note.

169

(ii)       the U.S. Co-Issuer and the Canadian Co-Issuer by the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid and by facsimile or e-mail to the U.S. Co-Issuer and the Canadian Co-Issuer addressed to: Compass Datacenters Issuer, LLC, Compass Datacenters Canada Issuer Limited Partnership, c/o Compass Datacenters, LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, with a copy to DLA Piper LLP (US), ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The Co-Issuers shall promptly transmit any notice received by them from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee and Servicer.

(b)            Any notice to be given to the Indenture Trustee hereunder shall also be given to the Note Registrar and the Servicer in writing, personally delivered, faxed, e-mailed or mailed by certified mail and shall not be deemed given to the Indenture Trustee until also given to the Note Registrar and the Servicer; provided, however, that only one notice to the Indenture Trustee shall be necessary at any time that the Indenture Trustee is also the Note Registrar.

(c)            Any notice, and copies of any reports, certificates, schedules, statements, documents or other information to be given to the Indenture Trustee by the Co-Issuers, the Guarantors or the Asset Entities hereunder shall also be simultaneously given to the Servicer in writing, personally delivered, faxed, e-mailed or mailed by certified mail and shall not be deemed given to the Indenture Trustee until also given to the Servicer; provided, however, that only one notice or copy of such reports, certificates, schedules, or other information required to be given to the Indenture Trustee shall be necessary at any time that the Indenture Trustee is also the Servicer.

(d)            Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Co-Issuers and/or the Asset Entities or the Indenture Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered, faxed, mailed by certified mail or e-mailed to the addresses specified in the Series Supplement for any Series of Notes.

170

Section 15.05 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

(a)           Where this Indenture or any Series Supplement provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture or in such Series Supplement) if in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at his address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner provided in this Indenture shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

(b)           Where this Indenture or any Series Supplement provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

(c)           In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture or any Series Supplement, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

(d)           Where this Indenture or any Series Supplement provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such notice to the Rating Agencies shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder or under any Series Supplement, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of Default.

Section 15.06 Payment and Notice Dates. All payments to be made and notices to be delivered pursuant to this Indenture, any Series Supplement or any other Transaction Document shall be made by the responsible party as of the dates set forth in this Indenture, in such Series Supplement or in such other Transaction Document.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto, and no oral statements or prior written matter not specifically incorporated herein shall be of any force or effect.

171

Subject to Section 13.01 and Section 13.02 and Article XI, nothing in this Indenture, any Series Supplement or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, the Servicer and their successors hereunder, the Noteholders and any other party secured hereunder or under any such Series Supplement, and any other Person with an Ownership Interest in any part of the Collateral, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture or any Series Supplement.

Section 15.11 Legal Holiday. In any case where the date on which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes, this Indenture or any Series Supplement) payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture or in any such Series Supplement, no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

Section 15.12 Waiver of Jury Trial.

Section 15.13 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. THIS INDENTURE, EACH SERIES SUPPLEMENT AND EACH NOTE ISSUED PURSUANT TO THIS INDENTURE AND EACH SERIES SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK EXCLUDING CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES OF THE LAW OF SUCH STATE THAT WOULD PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN SUCH STATE.

The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this Indenture or any Series Supplement, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, and each Note Owner, by accepting an Ownership Interest in a Global Note, hereby covenants and agrees that neither it nor the Indenture Trustee on behalf of such Noteholder will at any time institute against the Co-Issuers and/or the Asset Entities or the Guarantors, or join in any institution against the Co-Issuers and/or the Asset Entities or the Guarantors of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceedings, or other proceedings under any federal, state, provincial, territorial or foreign bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture, any such Series Supplement or any of the other Transaction Documents.

Section 15.19 Excluded Data Centers. Nothing contained in this Indenture or any other Transaction Document shall prohibit the Parent or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Parent (other than a Guarantor or an Obligor) from owning and managing wholesale data centers that are not Data Centers and are consequently not included as Collateral (such data centers, “Excluded Data Centers”). If Excluded Data Centers are acquired after the Initial Closing Date by the Parent or a non-Asset Entity subsidiary or non-Obligor subsidiary of the Parent and such entity proposes to enter into a lease of the related Data Center Space with a party that is also a Tenant under a Tenant Lease, such new lease will be separate from and independent of any Tenant Lease between such party and an Asset Entity.

173

Section 15.20 Waiver of Immunities. To the extent that any Obligor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, such Obligor hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Indenture, any Series Supplement, the Notes and any other Transaction Document, to the extent permitted by law.

Any references in this Indenture and in any Series Supplement (and in the exhibits to this Indenture and to any Series Supplement) to duties or obligations of the Indenture Trustee, in its various capacities hereunder and under any such Series Supplement, that purport to arise pursuant to the provisions of any of the Transaction Documents or any such Series Supplement shall only be duties and obligations of the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee in its other capacities, as applicable, if the Indenture Trustee is a signatory to any such Transaction Documents or any such Series Supplement.

Each Holder agrees to provide any certification or information that is reasonably requested by the U.S. Co-Issuer, the Canadian Co-Issuer or their agents (a) to permit the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, to make payments to it without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding, (b) to enable the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, to qualify for a reduced rate of withholding in any jurisdiction from or through which the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer receives payments on its assets, or (c) to enable the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer, as applicable, to determine and/or satisfy its duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that it may be required to pay, deduct or withhold from payments in respect of the Notes under any present or future law or regulation of any jurisdiction or taxing authority therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements under any law or regulation. Each Holder acknowledges that the failure to provide, update or replace any form, certification or information described above may result in the imposition of withholding or backup withholding on payments to such Holder.

174

Section 15.26 Request for Rating Agency Confirmation.

(a)            Any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation made by the Co-Issuers, an Asset Entity or the Servicer, as applicable (such requesting party, the “RAC Requesting Party”), pursuant to this Indenture shall be made in writing, which writing shall include electronic mail, and shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the request for Rating Agency Confirmation and all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request, and shall be provided by the RAC Requesting Party in electronic format to other Person designated in writing by the Co-Issuers from time to time (the “Authorized Representative”) who shall post such request on the 17g-5 Website (the “Initial Request”).

(b)            If a Rating Agency has not replied to an Initial Request or has responded to an Initial Request in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for a Rating Agency Confirmation within 10 Business Days of the making of such Initial Request, the RAC Requesting Party shall:

(i)         confirm, through direct communication and not by posting a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation on the 17g-5 Website, that such Rating Agency has received such Initial Request, and, if it has not, promptly make a second request to such Rating Agency for Rating Agency Confirmation (the “Second Request”); and

(ii)        if there is no response by such Rating Agency to such Initial Request or such Second Request within five Business Days of the making of such Second Request or if such Rating Agency has responded to such Initial Request or such Second Request in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing the request for such Rating Agency Confirmation nor waiving the requirement for such Rating Agency Confirmation, then such RAC Requesting Party shall confirm (without providing notice to the Authorized Representative), by direct communication and not by posting a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation on the 17g-5 Website, that such Rating Agency has received such Second Request.

Section 15.27 Amendment and Restatement. The execution and delivery of this Indenture shall constitute an amendment and restatement, but not a novation, of the Existing Indenture and the obligations and liabilities of the Co-Issuers under the Existing Indenture and the pledge of the Collateral made by the Co-Issuers thereunder to the Indenture Trustee. Except as specifically amended and restated under this Indenture, all Liens, deeds of trust, mortgages, assignments and security interests securing the Existing Indenture and the obligations and liabilities of the Co-Issuers relating thereto are hereby ratified, confirmed, renewed, extended, brought forward and rearranged as security for the Obligations, shall continue without any diminution thereof and shall remain in full force and effect on and after the Amendment and Restatement Closing Date. The Co-Issuers hereby reaffirm all UCC financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereof filed and all other filings and recordations made in respect of the Collateral and the Liens and security interests granted under the Existing Indenture and this Indenture and acknowledges that all such filings and recordations were and remain authorized and effective on and after the date hereof.

175

ARTICLE XVI

GUARANTEES

Section 16.01 Guarantees. Each Asset Entity and Other Entity hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, to each Holder and to the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders, and the Servicer and their respective successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Notes when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Co-Issuers, the Asset Entities and the Other Entities under this Indenture and the Notes and each other Transaction Document and (b) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Co-Issuers, the Asset Entities and the Other Entities under this Indenture and the Notes and all other Transaction Documents (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

Each Asset Entity and Other Entity waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Co-Issuers of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Asset Entity and Other Entity waives notice of any default under the Notes or the other Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Asset Entity and Other Entity hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Holder or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the Transaction Documents against any other Obligor or any other Person or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other Transaction Document; (d) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee for the Obligations or any of them; or (e) the failure of any Holder or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Each Asset Entity and Other Entity further agrees that its guaranty herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

176

Except as expressly set forth herein, the obligations of each Asset Entity and Other Entity hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Asset Entity and Other Entity herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Asset Entity or Other Entity or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Asset Entity or Other Entity as a matter of law or equity.

Each Asset Entity and Other Entity further agrees that its guaranty herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the U.S. Co-Issuer or the Canadian Co-Issuer or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer has at law or in equity against any Asset Entity and any Other Entity by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Co-Issuers to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Asset Entity and Other Entity hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, as the case may be, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations and (iii) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Co-Issuers to the Holders and the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer.

Each Asset Entity or Other Entity also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer in enforcing any rights under this Section.

Notwithstanding any payment made by any Asset Entity or Other Entity hereunder, such Asset Entity or Other Entity shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Indenture Trustee against the Co-Issuers or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Indenture Trustee for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Asset Entity or Other Entity seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Co-Issuers in respect of payments made by the Asset Entity or Other Entity hereunder, until the Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to an Asset Entity or Other Entity on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Asset Entity or Other Entity in trust for the Indenture Trustee, segregated from other funds of such Asset Entity or Other Entity, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Asset Entity or Other Entity, be turned over to the Indenture Trustee in the exact form received by such Asset Entity or Other Entity (duly indorsed by such Asset Entity or Other Entity to the Indenture Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Indenture Trustee may determine.

177

Section 16.02 Limitation on Liability. Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the maximum, aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Asset Entity shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Asset Entity, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Section 16.03 Successors and Assigns. Subject to Section 16.06, this Article XVI shall be binding upon each Asset Entity, Other Entity and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Indenture Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

Section 16.04 No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article XVI shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article XVI at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
