SECTION 11.01. Limitation on Liability of Seller and Others. The Seller and any director or officer or employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder (provided that such reliance shall not limit in any way the Seller’s obligations under Article V herein). The Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under these Master Sale Terms or any Purchase Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability. Except as provided herein, the repurchase (or substitution) and reimbursement obligations of the Seller will constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser for uncured breaches; provided, however, that the information with respect to the Loans listed on the Xxxx of Sale may be adjusted in the ordinary course of business subsequent to the date of the Xxxx of Sale and to the extent that the aggregate Principal Balance listed on the Xxxx of Sale is less than the aggregate Principal Balance stated on the Xxxx of Sale, the Seller shall remit such amount to the Interim Trustee for the benefit of the Purchaser. Such reconciliation payment shall be made from time to time but no less frequently than semi-annually.

ARTICLE XII.

EXPENSES

SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS/SUPERSESSION

SECTION 13.01. Survival of Covenants/Suppression. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in or pursuant to any Purchase Agreements executed pursuant to these Master Sale Terms shall survive the consummation of the purchase of the Loans provided for in each Purchase Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made or furnished pursuant hereto by or for the benefit of the Seller shall bind and inure to the benefit of any successors or assigns of the Purchaser and the Interim Trustee on behalf of the Purchaser and shall survive with respect to each Loan. Each Purchase Agreement supersedes all previous agreements and understandings between the Purchaser and the Seller with respect to the subject matter thereof. A Purchase Agreement may be changed, modified or discharged, and any rights or obligations hereunder may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by a duly authorized officer of the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought. The waiver by the Purchaser of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty required to be made or furnished by the Seller or the waiver by the Purchaser of any provision herein contained or contained in any Purchase

13

Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any breach of any other covenant, agreement, representation, warranty or provision herein contained or contained in any Purchase Agreement, nor shall any waiver or any custom or practice which may evolve between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof or of any Purchase Agreement, be construed to lessen the right of the Purchaser to insist upon the performance by the Seller in strict accordance with said terms.

ARTICLE XVI.

AMENDMENT

SECTION 16.01. Amendment. These Master Sale Terms and any Purchase Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto without the consent of the related Noteholders for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of such Master Sale Terms and Purchase Agreements or of modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders; provided that such action will not, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the related Indenture Trustees, materially and adversely affect the interest of any such Noteholder.

In addition, these Master Sale Terms and any Purchase Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Interim Trustee and the Purchaser, with the consent of the Noteholders of Notes evidencing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the

14

provisions of these Master Sale Terms or any Purchase Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the time of, collections of payments with respect to Loans or distributions that shall be required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the Noteholders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of all outstanding Noteholders.

Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent (or, in the case of the Rating Agencies, five Business Days prior thereto), the Interim Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to the Indenture Trustee, and each of the Rating Agencies.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

Prior to the execution of any amendment to these Master Sale Terms, the Interim Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Purchase Agreement and the Opinion of Counsel referred to in Section 7.01(i) of the Administration Agreement. The Interim Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Interim Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.
