Nevertheless, this Agreement also shall be deemed to be and hereby is a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC, and the conveyance by the Transferor provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be and hereby is a grant by the Transferor to the Trust of a security interest in and to all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Collateral Certificate, all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, goods, letters of credit, letter-of-credit rights, advices of credit and investment property consisting of, arising from, or relating to the Collateral Certificate, and the proceeds thereof, to secure the obligations of the Transferor hereunder. The Transferor and the Trust shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that the security interest in the Collateral Certificate created hereunder will be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.

(b) To the extent that the Transferor retains any interest in the Collateral Certificate, the Transferor hereby grants to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes a security interest in and to all of the Transferor’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under the Collateral Certificate, all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, goods, letters of credit, letter-of-credit rights, advices of credit, and investment property consisting of, arising from, or relating to the Collateral Certificate, and the proceeds thereof (collectively, the “Indenture Collateral”), to secure performance of all of the obligations of the Transferor hereunder. With respect to the Indenture Collateral, the Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights it has under the Transaction Documents. The Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC.

Section 2.14. Series 2001-D Certificateholder. The Indenture Trustee shall be the Series 2001-D Certificateholder for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Series 2001-D Supplement.

Section 2.15. Representations and Warranties of the Transferor. The Transferor makes the following representations and warranties as to the Collateral Certificate on which the Trust is deemed to have relied in acquiring the Collateral Certificate.

(c) No Consents Required. All approvals, authorizations, consents, orders or other actions of any Person or of any Governmental Authority required in connection with the execution and delivery by the Transferor of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the performance by the Transferor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and the fulfillment by the Transferor of the terms hereof or thereof, have been obtained or have been completed and are in full force and effect (other than approvals, authorizations, consents, orders and other actions which if not obtained or completed or in full force or effect would not have a material adverse effect on the Transferor or the Trust or upon the collectibility of the Collateral Certificate or upon the ability of the Transferor to perform its obligations under this Agreement).

(d) Transfers Comply. Each of (i) the transfer of the Collateral Certificate by the Transferor to the Trust pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) the pledge of the Collateral Certificate by the Trust to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and (iii) the pledge of the Collateral Certificate by the Transferor to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, comply with the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to transfers of the Collateral Certificate.

(e) To the extent the UCC applies, this Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the Delaware UCC) in favor of the Trust in the Collateral Certificate, which security interest is prior to all other liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Transferor.

(f) The Collateral Certificate constitutes either an “account,” a “general intangible,” an “instrument,” or a “certificated security,” each within the meaning of the UCC.

The Transferor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Transferor that include a description of the Collateral Certificate other than any financing

statement relating to the security interest granted to the Trust and the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or any financing statement that has been terminated. The Transferor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Transferor.

(j) Prior to the transfer of the Collateral Certificate to the Indenture Trustee, all original executed copies of the Collateral Certificate had been delivered to the Trust.

(k) At the time of the transfer and assignment of the Collateral Certificate to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement, the Collateral Certificate had no marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Trust.

(l) None of the representations and warranties contained in subsections 2.15(e) through 2.15(k) shall be waived by any of the parties to this Agreement unless the Transferor has obtained written confirmation from each Note Rating Agency (as defined in the Indenture) that there will be no Ratings Effect (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to such waiver.

The Transferor shall execute and file and cause to be executed and filed such financing statements and continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to perfect, maintain, and protect the interest of the Trust in the Collateral Certificate and in the proceeds thereof and the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Collateral Certificate and the proceeds thereof. The Transferor shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing.

(b) The Transferor shall not change its name, identity or corporate structure in any manner that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with paragraph (a) above or otherwise seriously misleading within the meaning of the UCC (regardless of whether such a filing was ever made), unless it shall have given the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at least five days’ prior written notice thereof and, if applicable, shall have timely filed appropriate amendments to any and all previously filed financing statements or continuation statements (so that the interest of the Trust or the Indenture Trustee is not adversely affected).

(c) The Transferor shall give the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at least 60 days’ prior written notice of any relocation of its chief executive office, place of business or State of location, and of any change in the jurisdiction of its organization, if, as a result of such relocation or change, the applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement (regardless of whether such a filing was ever made) and shall promptly, if applicable, file any such amendment.

Section 2.18. Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Transferor. Any Person (a) into which the Transferor may be merged or consolidated, (b) which may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Transferor shall be a party or (c) which may succeed to the properties and assets of the Transferor substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Transferor under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Transferor hereunder without the execution or filing of any other document or any further act by any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the Transferor shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) and an Opinion of Counsel (as defined in the Indenture) each stating that such consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 2.18 and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, (ii) written confirmation from the Note Rating Agency (as defined in the Indenture) that such transaction will not result in any Note Rating Agency reducing or withdrawing its then existing rating of the Notes and (iii) the Transferor shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all actions necessary to perfect the interests of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee have been taken, including that all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Collateral Certificate and reciting the details of such filings, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests.

The Transferor, in its capacity as such, shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability. The Beneficiary shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

(d) The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof will not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the material terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a material default under, any indenture, contract, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, or other instrument to which the Beneficiary is a party or by which it or any of its properties are bound (other than violations of such indentures, contracts, agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust or other instruments which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Beneficiary’s ability to perform its obligation under this Agreement).

DISTRIBUTIONS OF FUNDS

Section 4.01. Distribution of Funds.

Section 4.02. Payments from Trust Estate Only. All payments to be made by the Trust under this Agreement will be made only from the income and the capital proceeds derived from the Trust Estate and only to the extent that the Trust will have received income or capital proceeds from the Trust Estate. The Beneficiary agrees that it will look solely to the income and capital proceeds derived from the Trust Estate (to the extent available for payment as herein provided) and that, except as specifically provided herein, the Owner Trustee will not be subject to any liability in its individual capacity under this Agreement to the Beneficiary or to any other Person.

Section 4.03. Method of Payment.

Funds received after that time will be applied on the next following Business Day.

ARTICLE V

DUTIES OF THE OWNER TRUSTEE

Section 5.01. Action Upon Instructions. (a) It is the intention of the Beneficiary that the powers and duties of the Owner Trustee are to be purely ministerial only. Accordingly, subject to Section 5.01(b) and 5.01(c), and Article XII, the Beneficiary will direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust and the Trust Estate. Such direction shall be exercised at any time only by written instruction of the Beneficiary delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Article V. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall not take any action including but not limited to the execution of any documents, certificates or other instruments, unless it receives written instructions from the Beneficiary.

(b) The Owner Trustee will take such action or actions as may be specified in any instructions delivered in accordance with Section 5.01(a); provided, however, that the Owner Trustee will not be required to take any such action if the Trustee Bank will have been advised by counsel that such action (i) is contrary to the terms hereof or of any document contemplated hereby to which the Trust or the Owner Trustee is a party or is otherwise contrary to law, or (ii) is reasonably likely to result in liability on the part of the Trustee Bank, unless the Trustee Bank will have received additional indemnification or security satisfactory to the Trustee Bank from the Beneficiary against all costs, expenses and liabilities arising from the Owner Trustee’s taking such action.

(c) The Beneficiary will not direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action contrary to this Agreement, nor will the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction.

(d) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or this Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action to be adopted, the Owner Trustee will promptly give notice to the Beneficiary requesting written instructions as to the course of action to be adopted and, to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with such written instructions received from the Beneficiary, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee will not have received appropriate written instructions within 30 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement, as it deems to be in the best interests of the Beneficiary, and will have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

(e) The Owner Trustee will, subject to this Section 5.01, act in accordance with the instructions given to it by the Beneficiary pursuant to Section 5.01(b), and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with such instructions, the Owner Trustee will not be liable on account of such action to any Person.

Section 5.02. No Duty to Act Under Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the Trustee Bank nor the Owner Trustee, except a Trustee Bank authorized as co-trustee, will be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of Delaware if the taking of such action would (i) require the consent or approval or authorization or order of or the giving of notice to, or the registration with or taking of any action in respect of, any state or other governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (ii) result in any fee, tax or governmental charge under the laws of any jurisdiction or any political subdivisions thereof in existence on the date hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by the Trustee Bank; or (iii) subject the Trustee Bank to personal jurisdiction in any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions by the Trustee Bank or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, contemplated hereby. The Owner Trustee shall be entitled to obtain advice of counsel (which advice shall be at the expense of the Beneficiary) to determine whether any action required to be taken pursuant to this agreement results in the consequences described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence. In the event that said counsel advises the Owner Trustee that such action will result in such consequences, the Owner Trustee may, or if instructed to do so by the Beneficiary, shall, appoint an additional trustee pursuant to Section 8.04 hereby to proceed with such action.

Section 5.03. No Duties Except Under Specified Agreements or Instructions.

(a) The Owner Trustee will not have any duty or obligation to manage, control, use, make any payment in respect of, register, record, insure, inspect, sell, dispose of, create, maintain or perfect any security interest or title in or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate, prepare, file or record any document or report (including any tax related filing for any holder of Notes), or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, this Agreement, the Trust or any document contemplated hereby to which the Trust or the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in written instructions from the Beneficiary received pursuant to Section 5.01; and no implied duties or obligations will be read into this Agreement against the Owner Trustee. Unless otherwise directed by the Beneficiary in accordance with Section 5.01(a), the Owner Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to take any action the Trust is authorized and empowered to take pursuant to Section 2.03(a). The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, in its individual capacity and at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any lien, pledge, security interest or other encumbrance on any part of the Trust Estate which results from actions by or claims against the Trustee Bank not related to the ownership of any part of the Trust Estate.

(b) The Owner Trustee agrees that it will not manage, control, use, lease, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except (i) in accordance with the powers granted to, or the authority conferred upon, the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, or (ii) in accordance with the express terms hereof or with written instructions from the Beneficiary pursuant to Section 5.01. Unless otherwise directed by the Beneficiary in accordance with Section 5.01(a), the Owner Trustee shall not be required to perform any obligations or duties of the Trust under the Indenture, which duties and obligations shall be the sole responsibility of the Beneficiary.

Section 5.04. Trust Operation. The operations of the Trust will be conducted in accordance with the following standards:

(a) the Trust will act solely in its own name through the Owner Trustee or the Beneficiary;

(b) the Trust will not incur any indebtedness for money borrowed or incur any obligations except in connection with the purposes set forth in Section 2.03 of this Agreement;

(c) the Trust’s funds and assets will at all times be maintained separately from those of the Beneficiary and its affiliates;

(d) the Trust will take all reasonable steps to continue its identity as a separate legal entity and to make it apparent to third persons that it is an entity with assets and liability distinct from those of the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s affiliates or any other third person, and will use stationery and other business forms of the Owner Trustee or the Trust and not that of the Beneficiary or any of its affiliates, and will use its best efforts to avoid the appearance (i) of conducting business on behalf of the Beneficiary or any affiliates thereof, or (ii) that the assets of the Trust are available to pay the creditors of the Beneficiary or any affiliates thereof;

(e) the Trust will not hold itself out as being liable for the debts of the Beneficiary or any affiliates thereof;

(f) the Trust will not engage in any transaction with the Beneficiary or any affiliates thereof, except as required, or specifically permitted, by this Agreement or unless such transaction is otherwise on terms neither more favorable nor less favorable than the terms and conditions available at the time to the Trust for comparable transactions with other Persons; and

(g) the Trust will not enter into any voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding without a finding by the Owner Trustee that the Trust’s liabilities exceeds its assets or that the Trust is unable to pay its debts in a timely manner as they become due.

Section 5.05. Execution of Documents. The Owner Trustee will, at the written direction of the Beneficiary, execute and deliver on behalf of the Trust such instruments, agreements and certificates contemplated hereby to which the Trust is a party (such direction to be conclusively evidenced by the Owner Trustee’s execution and delivery of such documents to, and acceptance by, the Beneficiary or its counsel).

Section 5.06. Nonpetition Covenants. Notwithstanding any prior termination of the Trust or this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Owner Trustee and the Beneficiary covenants and agrees that it shall not at any time with respect to the Trust or the Master Trust acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Trust or the Master Trust to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Trust or the Master Trust under any Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, conservator, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Trust or the Master Trust or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Trust or the

Master Trust; provided, however, that this Section 5.06 shall not preclude any remedy described in Article VII of the Indenture.

ARTICLE X

OWNERSHIP INTERESTS AND CERTIFICATES

Section 10.01. Issuance of Trust Certificates. (a) Promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust will issue and deliver to the Beneficiary a certificate of beneficial ownership of the Trust Estate substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Trust Certificate”) evidencing the Beneficiary’s beneficial interest (the “Ownership Interest”) in the Trust. The Beneficiary, in its capacity as the holder of the Trust Certificate, (i) shall be the sole beneficial owner of the Trust and (ii) shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Concurrently with the initial assignment of the Collateral Certificate to the Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause a single Trust Certificate to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Transferor, signed by any Vice President or more senior officer of the Transferor, without further corporate action by the Transferor. The Trust Certificate shall not entitle its holder to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on the Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or the Owner Trustee’s authentication agent, by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that the Trust Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. A Trust Certificate bearing the manual signature of an individual who was, at the time when such signature was affixed, an authorized officer will bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of such Trust Certificate. The Trust Certificate will be dated the date of its authentication.

(c) The Beneficiary will be entitled to all rights provided to it under this Agreement and in the Trust Certificate and will be subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and in the Trust Certificate.

(d) The Owner Trustee will maintain at its office referred to in Section 2.08, or at the office of any agent appointed by it and approved in writing by the Beneficiary, a register for the registration of the Trust Certificate. Such register will show the name and address of the holder of the Trust Certificate, and the Owner Trustee will treat such register as definitive and binding for all purposes hereunder.

(e) When the Trust Certificate is duly executed and issued by the Trust and duly authenticated by the Owner Trustee in accordance with this Agreement, the Trust Certificate will be fully paid, validly issued, non-assessable and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

Section 10.02. Beneficial Interest; Prohibitions on Transfer. (a) The Ownership Interest will initially be beneficially owned by FIA. Transfers of the Ownership Interest and the Trust Certificate may be made between FIA and any other Person who is an Affiliate of FIA (a “Permitted Affiliate Transferee”) upon delivery to the Master Trust Trustee and the Owner Trustee of a Master Trust Tax Opinion and an Issuer Tax Opinion, respectively, with respect to such transfer. The Beneficiary may not sell, participate, transfer, assign, exchange or otherwise pledge or convey all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to the Trust Certificate or its Ownership Interest to any other Person, except (i) to any Permitted Affiliate Transferee, or (ii) to the extent a corresponding transfer of the Collateral Certificate would be permitted by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any purported transfer by the Beneficiary of all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to the Trust Certificate to any Person will be effective only upon the issuance of a Master Trust Tax Opinion and an Issuer Tax Opinion (each as defined in the Indenture), which will not be an expense of the Owner Trustee or the Trustee Bank. Any purported transfer by the Beneficiary of all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to the Trust Certificate which is not in compliance with the terms of this Section 10.02 will be null and void.

(b) The Trust Certificate will bear a legend setting forth the restriction on the transferability of the Ownership Interest substantially as follows:

“THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED OR OTHERWISE PLEDGED OR CONVEYED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT REFERRED TO BELOW. IN ADDITION, THE BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN THE TRUST REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OFFERED OR SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF BY THE HOLDER HEREOF UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, AS AMENDED AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

(c) The Owner Trustee shall not be required to ascertain whether any purported transfer of the Ownership Interest and the Trust Certificate complies with the Securities Act.

Section 10.03. Lost or Destroyed Trust Certificate. If the Trust Certificate shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust will, upon the written request of the Beneficiary, and compliance with all applicable terms of this paragraph, execute and deliver to such holder in replacement thereof a new Trust Certificate dated the same date as on the Trust Certificate so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen. If the Trust Certificate being replaced has been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Beneficiary will furnish to the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by the Owner Trustee to save the Owner Trustee harmless from any damage, loss or liability in connection with such Trust Certificate, and the Owner Trustee may require from the Beneficiary payment of a

sum to reimburse the Owner Trustee for, or to provide funds for, the payment of any costs, fees and expenses and any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith and any charges paid or payable by the Owner Trustee.

ARTICLE XI

Section 11.02. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Transferor hereby agrees, whether or not any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be consummated, to assume liability for, and hereby indemnifies, protects, saves and keeps harmless the Trustee Bank and its officers, directors, successors, assigns, legal representatives, agents and servants (each an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, taxes, claims, actions, investigations, proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted at any time against an Indemnified Person (whether or not also indemnified against by any other person) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other related documents or the enforcement of any of the terms of any thereof, the administration of the Trust Estate or the action or inaction of the Owner Trustee, or the Trustee Bank under this Agreement, and the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, nonacceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition of any property (including any strict liability, any liability without fault and any latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable), except, in any such case, to the extent that any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, taxes, claims, actions, investigations, proceedings, costs, expenses and disbursements are the result of any of the matters described in the third sentence of Section 6.01; provided, however, that the Transferor shall not be liable for or required to indemnify an Indemnified Person from and against expenses arising or resulting from (i) the Indemnified Party’s own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence, or (ii) the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.07 made by the Indemnified Person.

In case any such action, investigation or proceeding will be brought involving an Indemnified Person, the Transferor will assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and the payment of all expenses. The Trustee Bank will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, investigation or proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof and the reasonable counsel fees and expenses of such counsel will be paid by the Transferor. In the event of any claim, action or proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section 11.02, the Trustee Bank’s choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the Beneficiary, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The indemnification set forth herein will survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee Bank.
