opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to
other matters and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such
matters in one or several documents.
9
Any Opinion of Counsel stated to be based on the opinion of other counsel
shall be accompanied by a copy of such other opinion.
Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Trust Agreement, they may, but need not, be consolidated
and form one instrument.
SECTION 1.04. ACTS OF HOLDERS.
(a) Any direction, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Trust
Agreement to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by
one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in
person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or
instruments are received by the Trustee. Such instrument or instruments (and the
action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to
as the "Act" of the Holders 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 Trust Agreement and conclusive in favor of
the Trustee if made in the manner provided in this Section.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the certificate of any notary public or
other officer of any jurisdiction authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds or
administer oaths that the Person executing such instrument acknowledged to him
the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution sworn
to before any such notary or such other officer and where such execution is by
an officer of a corporation or association or a member of a partnership or
limited liability company, on behalf of such corporation, association,
partnership or limited liability company, such certificate or affidavit shall
also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the
execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person
executing the same, may also be proved in any other reasonable manner which the
Trustee deems sufficient.
(c) In determining whether the Holders of the requisite Fractional
Undivided Interests of Certificates outstanding have given any direction,
consent or waiver (a "DIRECTION") or any Request under this Trust Agreement,
Certificates owned by the Subtenant, the Seller, the Trustee or any Affiliate of
any such Person, if any, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding
under this Trust Agreement for purposes of any such determination. In
determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such
Direction or any such Request, only Certificates which the Trustee knows to be
so owned by any of the aforementioned Persons shall be so disregarded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if any such Person owns 100% of the
Certificates Outstanding, such Certificates shall not be so disregarded as
aforesaid, and (ii) if any amount of Certificates so owned by any such Person
have been pledged in good faith, such Certificates shall not be disregarded as
aforesaid if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the
pledgee's right so to act with respect to such Certificates and that the pledgee
is the Subtenant, the Seller, the Trustee, or any Affiliate of any such Persons
and such pledgee provides adequate security or indemnity to the Trustee. Any
Direction delivered by the Certificateholders shall be provided to the Trustee
in writing.
10
(d) Any Direction or other action by the Holder of any Certificate shall
bind the Holder of every Certificate issued upon the transfer thereof or in
exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not notation of such action is
made upon such Certificate.
(e) Except as otherwise provided in SECTION 1.04(c), Certificates owned
by or pledged to any Person shall have an equal and proportionate benefit
under the provisions of this Trust Agreement, without preference, priority,
or distinction as among all of the Certificates.

(a) The Seller, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to the
Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Seller in
and to the Trust Property for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The
Seller covenants and agrees to take any such action as the Trustee may
reasonably request to further convey any interest in any item of the Trust
Property to the Trustee and to provide such further assurances as the Trustee
may reasonably request to vest in this Trust all its right, title and
interest in the Trust Property. The transfer of the Trust Property and the
related rights and property accomplished hereby is absolute and,
notwithstanding SECTION 12.10, is intended by the parties to constitute a
sale.
(b) In connection with such assignment, the Seller does hereby deliver to,
and deposit with, the Trustee each of the documents or instruments with respect
to the Mortgage Loan listed on EXHIBIT D which shall constitute the Mortgage
File for the Mortgage Loan subject to SECTION 2.01(c).
(c) Simultaneously with the sale of the Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall
deliver to the Trustee the original of the Mortgage Note, properly endorsed
to the Trust in the form set forth in EXHIBIT B. In addition, the Seller
shall, promptly upon receipt thereof, deliver to the Trustee with respect to
the Mortgage Loan: (i) the original recorded Mortgage; (ii) the original
recorded Assignment of Leases and Rents and a copy of the original Sublease;
(iii) the original recorded UCC-1 Financing Statement; (iv) the original
recorded Assignment of Mortgage to the Trustee; and (v) the original policy
of title insurance.

the appropriate public office for real property records, the Assignment of
Mortgage, referred to in CLAUSE (c)(iv) above. In the event that any such
Assignment of Mortgage is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect
therein, the Seller shall prepare a substitute Assignment of Mortgage or cure
such defect, as the case may be, and cause such Assignment of Mortgage to be
recorded and delivered in accordance with this SECTION 2.01.
(e) The Seller shall deliver to the Trustee on the Closing Date a list
setting forth, as of the Closing Date, the amount of the Base Rent payable
pursuant to the Sublease conveyed to the Trustee under this Article II, attached

SECTION 2.02. ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES: ACQUISITION OF MORTGAGE LOANS.
Upon direction of the Seller and the satisfaction of the closing conditions
with respect to the purchase of the Mortgage Loan to be purchased on the
Closing Date, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver
Certificates on the Closing Date to the Seller or its designees equaling in
the aggregate 100% of the Fractional Undivided Interest in the Trust,
evidencing the entire ownership of the Trust. The Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver the Certificates on the Closing Date, in authorized
denominations and in such Fractional Undivided Interests designated by the
Seller, so as to result in the issuance by the Trust of Certificates in an
aggregate equal to 100% of the Fractional Undivided Interest. Except as
provided in SECTIONS 3.03 and 3.04, the Trustee shall not execute or deliver
Certificates in an aggregate amount in excess of 100% of the Fractional
Undivided Interest in the Trust.
SECTION 2.03. ACCEPTANCE BY TRUSTEE. The Trustee, upon the execution
and delivery of this Trust Agreement, acknowledges its receipt of the
Mortgage Loan and the Mortgage File related thereto transferred to the Trust
pursuant to SECTION 2.01 hereof and declares that the Trustee holds and will
hold such Mortgage Loan and Mortgage File related thereto, together with all
other property constituting the Trust Property, for the benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders, upon the trusts herein set forth. By
its payment for and acceptance of each Certificate issued to it hereunder,
each initial Certificateholder thereby joins in the creation of the Trust and
agrees to be bound by the terms of this Trust Agreement.
SECTION 2.04. MORTGAGE FILE CERTIFICATION. Upon execution and delivery of
this Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall examine the Mortgage File in its
possession, and shall deliver to the Seller and the initial Certificateholders a
certification (the "MORTGAGE FILE CERTIFICATION") in the form set forth as
EXHIBIT E hereto. Within 120 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall
provide a confirmation to the Seller of receipt or non-receipt of recorded
Assignments of Mortgage and of those items described in the Mortgage File which
were not delivered to the Trustee upon the execution and delivery of this Trust
Agreement. In giving the certifications required above, the Trustee shall be
under no obligation or duty to inspect, review or examine any such documents,
instruments, securities or other papers to determine whether they or the
signatures thereon are valid, legal, genuine, enforceable, in recordable form or
appropriate for their represented purposes, or that they are other than what
they purport to be on their face, or to determine whether any Mortgage File
should include any assumption agreement, modification agreement, consolidation
agreement, extension agreement, assignment of leases, UCC financing statement,
guaranty, written assurance or substitution agreement or any other document or
instrument not set forth in SECTION 2.01(c).
The Trustee or its authorized agents shall retain possession and custody
of the Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein.
SECTION 2.05. LIMITATION OF POWERS. The Trust is constituted solely for
the purpose of acquiring the Mortgage Loan, and, except as set forth herein, the
Trustee is not authorized or empowered to substitute any other mortgage loans
for the Mortgage Loan, to acquire any other investments or engage in any other
activities and, in particular, notwithstanding any other provision in this Trust
Agreement, the Trustee is not authorized or empowered to do anything that would
cause the Trust to be classified as an association taxable as a corporation, as
a taxable
12
mortgage pool or otherwise to fail to qualify as a "grantor trust" as described
in Sections 671 through 679 of the Code for federal income tax purposes.
It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Trust be classified
for United States federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust. The provisions
of this Agreement shall be interpreted to further this intention of the parties.
ARTICLE III
THE CERTIFICATES
SECTION 3.01. FORM, DENOMINATION AND EXECUTION OF CERTIFICATES.
(a) The Certificates consist of Class A Certificates. The Certificates
shall be in registered form without coupons and shall be substantially in the
forms attached hereto as EXHIBITS A-1, A-2 AND A-3, respectively, with such
omissions, variations and insertions as are permitted by this Trust Agreement,
and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such
legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon, as may be
required to comply with any law or with rules or regulations pursuant thereto,
or with the rules of any securities exchange on which the Certificates may be
listed, or to conform to any usage in respect thereof, or as may, consistently
herewith, be prescribed by the Trustee or by the officer executing such
Certificates, such determination by said officer to be evidenced by such officer
signing the Certificates.
The Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by
any combination of these methods or may be produced in any other manner
permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Certificates may
be listed, all as determined by the officer executing such Certificates, as
evidenced by such officer's execution of such Certificates.
The Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of $1,000,000
and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
(b) Class A Certificates to be issued in book-entry form and sold to
Qualified Institutional Buyers within the meaning of, and in reliance on,
Rule 144A under the Securities Act or to Accredited Investors pursuant to
Regulation D under the Securities Act will be represented by a permanent
global Certificate, in fully registered form without interest coupons (each a
"RESTRICTED GLOBAL CERTIFICATE"), substantially in the form set forth in
EXHIBIT A-1, with such legends as may be applicable thereto as set forth in
this Agreement, and shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the
Class A Certificates represented thereby with a custodian for DTC, and
registered in the name of Cede & Co. as DTC's nominee, authenticated by the
Trustee in the manner set forth in SECTION 3.01(h).
(c) Class A Certificates to be offered and sold outside the United
States in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the
Securities Act, will initially be represented by a temporary global
Certificate, in fully registered form without interest coupons (each a
"TEMPORARY GLOBAL CERTIFICATE"), substantially in the form set forth in
EXHIBIT A-2, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the
Class A Certificates represented thereby with a custodian for, and registered
in the name of a nominee of, DTC, for the accounts of Morgan Guaranty Trust
Company of New York, Brussels office, as operator of Euroclear, and for
13
Clearstream, authenticated by the Trustee in the manner set forth in SECTION
3.01(h). Interests in the Temporary Global Certificate will be exchangeable,
in whole or in part, for interests in a permanent global Certificate, in
fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the form of
EXHIBIT A-3 (each a "REGULATION S GLOBAL CERTIFICATE"), in accordance with
the provisions of the Temporary Global Certificate and this Agreement.
Interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate will be exchangeable for
Individual Certificates in accordance with the provisions of the Regulation S
Global Certificate and this Agreement.
The Global Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to the same
benefits under this Agreement as Individual Certificates authenticated and
delivered hereunder.
The Global Certificates shall be issued as one or more certificates
registered in the name of a nominee designated by the Depository, and Beneficial
Owners shall hold interests in the Global Certificates through the book-entry
facilities of the Depository in the minimum denominations and aggregate
denominations and Classes as set forth above.
(d) Except insofar as pertains to any Individual Certificate, the
Registrar and Transfer Agent and the Trustee may for all purposes (including the
making of payments due on the Global Certificates and the giving of notice to
Holders thereof) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of
the Beneficial Owners with respect to the Global Certificates for the purposes
of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of
Beneficial Owners with respect to Global Certificates shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the
Depository and the Depository Participants. Beneficial Owners of Global
Certificates shall not be entitled to physical certificates for the Global
Certificates as to which they are the Beneficial Owners. Requests and directions
from, and votes of the Depository as Holder of the Global Certificates shall be
handled in accordance with Applicable Procedures and shall not be deemed
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Beneficial Owners. The
Transfer Agent and Registrar may establish a reasonable record date in
connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders
and give notice to the Depository of such record date. Without the written
consent of the Depositor and the Transfer Agent and Registrar, no Global
Certificate may be transferred by the Depository except to a successor
Depository that agrees to hold the Global Certificates for the account of the
Beneficial Owners.
(e) The Global Certificates (i) shall be delivered by the Transfer Agent
and Registrar to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depository's instructions on
behalf of the Depository to, and deposited with, the Trustee, and in either case
shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. and (ii) shall bear a legend
substantially to the following effect:
"Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized
representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York
corporation ("DTC"), to the Transfer Agent and Registrar for
registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate
issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name
as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any
payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is
requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY
14
TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO
ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede
& Co., has an interest herein."
The Global Certificates may be deposited with such other Depository as the
Transfer Agent and Registrar may from time to time designate (which designation
shall be at the direction of the Depositor if the Depositor is legally able to
do so), and shall bear such legend as may be appropriate.
(f) If (i) the Depository advises the Trustee in writing that the
Depository is no longer willing, qualified or able properly to discharge its
responsibilities as Depository, and the Trustee is unable to locate a qualified
successor, (ii) the Depositor or the Trustee, at its sole option, elects to
terminate the book-entry system through the Depository with respect to all or
any portion of any Class of Certificates or (iii) after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Beneficial Owners representing not less than a majority in
Certificate Principal Balance of the Global Certificates then outstanding advise
the Depository through Depository Participants in writing that the continuation
of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interest
of Beneficial Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Beneficial Owners, through
the Depository of the occurrence of such event and the availability of
Individual Certificates to Beneficial Owners requesting them. Upon surrender to
the Trustee of Global Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by
registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the
Trustee shall issue the Individual Certificates. Neither the Trustee, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar nor the Depositor shall be liable for any actions
taken by the Depository or its nominee, including, without limitation, any delay
in delivery of such instructions. Upon the issuance of Individual Certificates,
the Trustee, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, and the Depositor shall recognize
the Holders of Individual Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
(g) If the Trustee or its agents has instituted or has been directed to
institute any judicial proceeding in a court to enforce the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Certificates, and the Trustee has been advised by
counsel that in connection with such proceeding it is necessary or appropriate
for the Trustee to obtain possession of the Certificates, the Trustee may in its
sole discretion determine that the Certificates represented by the Global
Certificates shall no longer be represented by such Global Certificates. In such
event, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent will execute and authenticate and
the Transfer Agent and Registrar will deliver, in exchange for such Global
Certificates, Individual Certificates (and if the Trustee or the Certificate
Custodian has in its possession Individual Certificates previously executed, the
Authenticating Agent will authenticate and the Transfer Agent and Registrar will
deliver such Certificates) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
principal amount of such Global Certificates.
(h) The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trustee by manual
or facsimile signature of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. Certificates
bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was, at the time
when such signature was affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trustee
shall be valid and binding obligations of the Trustee, notwithstanding that such
individual has ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and
delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such office at the date of such
authentication and
15
delivery. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Trust
Agreement, or be valid for any purposes, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth
in EXHIBIT A-1, A-2 or A-3 hereto executed by the Trustee by manual signature,
and such certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the
only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
SECTION 3.02. AUTHENTICATION OF CERTIFICATES. The Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver the Certificates on the Closing Date in accordance
with the terms of SECTION 2.02.
SECTION 3.03. REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES.
(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at its principal office a
register (the "REGISTER") in which the Trustee shall provide for the
registration, transfer, and exchange of Certificates as herein provided (the
Trustee in such capacity, the "TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR"). The names and
addresses of the Holders of the Certificates, the transfers of the
Certificates and the names and addresses of the transferees of the
Certificates shall be registered in the Register; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in no
event shall the Transfer Agent and Registrar be required to maintain in its
certificate register the names of Beneficial Owners. The Person in whose name
any Certificate is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole
owner and Holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the Transfer
Agent and Registrar and the Trustee and any agent of any of them shall not be
affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. An Individual
Certificate is transferable or exchangeable only upon the surrender of such
Certificate to the Transfer Agent and Registrar at the Corporate Trust Office
together with an assignment and transfer (executed by the Holder or his duly
authorized attorney), subject to the requirements of this SECTION 3.03. Upon
request of the Trustee, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall provide the
Trustee with the names, addresses and Fractional Undivided Interests of the
Holders.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the
Corporate Trust Office or such other office or agency as the Trustee may
designate, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of
the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in
authorized denominations of a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like aggregate Fractional
Undivided Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the
office set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph. Whenever any
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver the Certificates that the Certificateholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed
by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Transfer Agent and
Registrar shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Certificates.
16
(b) No transfer of any Certificate shall be made unless that transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act
and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities
laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or
qualification. If any such transfer of a Certificate is to be made without
registration or qualification, then, as a condition to the registration of any
such transfer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall require, in order to
assure compliance with such laws, receipt of either: (i) a certificate from such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as
EXHIBIT F hereto; or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Seller to the effect that such transfer may
be made without registration under the Securities Act and the Trust will not
become an investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act as a result of
such transfer (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust or
of the Seller or of the Trustee or of the Transfer Agent and Registrar in their
respective capacities as such), together with the written certification(s) as to
the facts surrounding such transfer from the Certificateholder desiring to
effect such transfer and/or such Certificateholder's prospective transferee on
which such Opinion of Counsel is based.
The preceding provisions of this SECTION 3.03 notwithstanding:
(A) An owner of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global
Certificate may transfer such interest to a QIB, without the
provision of written certification, if the transfer is in the form
of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Certificate in a
transaction pursuant to Rule l44A.
(B) An owner of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global
Certificate may transfer such interest in the form of a beneficial
interest in the Regulation S Global Certificate only if such owner
has provided the Trustee with written certification in the form of
EXHIBIT F hereto that such transfer is being made in accordance with
Regulation S; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the exchange or transfer
occurs prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance
Period, the newly issued interest will be in the form of an interest
in the Temporary Global Certificate and will be held through
Euroclear or Clearstream.
(C) Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance
Period an owner of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Global
Certificate may transfer such interest in the form of a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Certificate only if such owner has
provided the Trustee with written certification in the form of
EXHIBIT F hereto to the effect that, among other things, the
Certificates are being transferred to a Person whom the transferor
reasonably believes is a QIB purchasing for its own account or the
account of a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule
l44A and in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the
states of the United States and other jurisdictions. After the
expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, an owner of a
beneficial interest in a Temporary Global Certificate or a
Regulation S Global Certificate may exchange or transfer such
interest in the form of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global
Certificate without the provision of a written certification but in
compliance with the other requirements of the preceding sentence and
based upon the
17
representations of the transferee set forth in a Restricted Global
Certificate. After the expiration of the Distribution Compliance
Period, holders of beneficial interests in a Temporary Global
Certificate may transfer such interests to interests in the
Regulation S Global Certificate upon certification that the offer
and sale are taking place outside the United States and the
transferee is not a U.S. person. The Transferor shall notify the
Trustee promptly of the expiration of the Distribution Compliance
Period.
(D) An owner of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Global
Certificate may transfer such interest in the form of a beneficial
interest in the Temporary Global Certificate without the provision
of written certification; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that interests in the
Temporary Global Certificates may be held only through Euroclear and
Clearstream.
None of the Seller, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar is
obligated to register or qualify the Certificates or the Trust under the
Securities Act, the 1940 Act or any state securities law or to take any action
not otherwise required under this Trust Agreement to permit the transfer of any
Certificate without registration or qualification.
As a condition to the purchase of any Certificate, each prospective
transferee of a Certificate shall (A) make the representations and warranties
set forth in Section 3.3 of the Certificate Purchase Agreement and (B) be deemed
to have represented and shall represent that such prospective transferee is
acquiring the Certificates for the purpose of investment and not with a view to
the distribution thereof, and that such prospective transferee has no present
intention of selling, negotiating or otherwise disposing of the Certificates; it
being understood, however, that the disposition of such transferee's property
shall at all times be and remain within its control. Each transfer of a
Certificate shall be made in compliance with the terms and provisions of this
SECTION 3.03(b).
SECTION 3.04. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES. If(a)
any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar,
or the Transfer Agent and Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered
to the Transfer Agent and Registrar such security, indemnity or bond, as may
be required by the Transfer Agent and Registrar to save it harmless, then, in
the absence of notice to the Transfer Agent and Registrar that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Fractional Undivided Interest. If any original Certificateholder or any
subsequent Institutional Holder with owned assets of at least $500,000,000 or
a net worth of at least $25,000,000 is the owner of any such lost, stolen or
destroyed Certificate, then the affidavit of an authorized officer of such
owner, setting forth the fact of loss, theft or destruction and of its
ownership of such Certificate at the time of such loss, theft or destruction
shall be accepted as satisfactory evidence thereof and no further indemnity
shall be required as a condition to the execution and delivery of a new
Certificate other than the written agreement of such owner to indemnify the
Transfer Agent and Registrar. In connection with the issuance of any new
Certificate under this SECTION 3.04, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall
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
expenses (including
18
the fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent and Registrar) connected
therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this SECTION 3.04
shall constitute conclusive evidence of the appropriate Fractional Undivided
Interest in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost,
stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
SECTION 3.05. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentation of a
Certificate for registration of transfer, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent
and Registrar shall treat the person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to SECTION 4.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
SECTION 3.06. CANCELLATION. All Certificates surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person that is
a party hereto other than the Trustee, be delivered by such Person to the
Transfer Agent and Registrar for cancellation. No Certificates shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Certificates cancelled as
provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Trust Agreement.
All cancelled Certificates held by the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall be
destroyed.
SECTION 3.07. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR PAYMENTS. All payments or
distributions made to Certificateholders under this Trust Agreement shall be
made only from the Trust Property and only to the extent that the Trustee shall
have sufficient income or proceeds from the Trust Property to make such payments
in accordance with the terms of ARTICLE IV of this Trust Agreement. Each Holder
of a Certificate, by its acceptance of such Certificate, agrees that it will
look solely to the distributions with respect to income and proceeds from the
Trust Property to the extent available for distribution to the Holder thereof as
provided in this Trust Agreement. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be
construed as an agreement, or otherwise creating an obligation, of the Seller or
the Trustee to pay any of the principal and interest due from time to time in
respect of the Certificates if there is insufficient income or proceeds from the
Trust Property.
SECTION 3.08. DELIVERY OF RULE 144A INFORMATION. So long as the
Certificates constitute "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule
144(a)(3) under the 1933 Act and the Seller is not subject to the information
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Holder
or Beneficial Owner of any Certificate and any prospective purchaser of such
Certificate or an interest therein designated by such Holder or Beneficial
Owner, will have the right to obtain from the Seller and the Trustee
information required under Rule 144A(d)(4) of the 1933 Act ("Rule 144A
Information"). The Seller will be required to furnish to the Trustee, upon
request, any such information in the possession of the Seller. The Trustee
shall cooperate with the Seller in furnishing such information pursuant to
this Section, but shall not be responsible for the sufficiency of the
information so furnished, and shall not be obligated to deliver any Rule 144A
Information under this SECTION 3.08 if such information is not in its
possession.

benefit of the Certificateholders and shall make withdrawals therefrom only
as provided in this Trust Agreement. On each day when a Scheduled Payment is
made under the Mortgage Note to the Trustee, as holder of the Mortgage Loan,
the Trustee upon receipt shall promptly deposit the aggregate amount of such
Scheduled Payment in the Certificate Account. In the event that any Scheduled

SECTION 4.04. INVESTMENT OF AMOUNTS HELD BY TRUSTEE. Any money received
by the Trustee pursuant to this Article IV representing a payment which is
not to be promptly distributed shall be held by the Trustee as part of the
Trust Property and shall be invested, to the extent practicable, by the
Trustee from time to time in Specified Investments (to the extent such
investments are reasonably available). Any investment made in Specified
Investments pursuant to this SECTION 4.04 shall be in such Specified
Investments having maturities not later than the date that such moneys are
required to be used to make the payment required under this ARTICLE IV on the
applicable date of such payment and the Trustee shall hold any such Specified
Investments until maturity. The Trustee shall have no liability with respect
to any loss resulting from any investment made by it pursuant to this SECTION
4.04, other than by reason of its willful misconduct or gross negligence (or
ordinary negligence in connection with the handling of funds). All income and
earnings from such investments net of the Trustee's reasonable actual
expenses in making such investment, shall be retained by the Trustee and any
losses, net of earnings and such reasonable fees and expenses, shall be
charged against the principal amount invested. If any default occurs in the
making of a payment due under any Specified Investment, or if a default
occurs in any other performance required under any Specified Investment, the
Trustee shall provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders and may take
such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance,
including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

written notice from each Holder described on SCHEDULE 1 to the Certificate
Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered pursuant to this
SECTION 4.05(b)) stating that the provisions of this SECTION 4.05(b) shall
apply, the Trustee shall make all payments on and with respect to the
Certificates before 2:00 P.M. New York, New York time on the date of
scheduled payment therefor by wire transfer of immediately available federal
funds to such bank in the continental United States as set forth in SCHEDULE

therein or as shall be specified in writing to the Trustee by any other
Holder. All payments so made shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and
discharge the liability upon such Certificate to the extent of the sums so
paid. The Trustee is authorized to act in accordance with the foregoing
provisions and shall not be liable or responsible to any such Holder for any
act or omission on the part of such Holder in connection therewith.
ARTICLE V
DEFAULT
SECTION 5.01. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. If any default beyond applicable
notice and grace periods under the terms of the Mortgage (an "EVENT OF
DEFAULT") shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every case, so
long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the Trustee may, and upon
the direction of the Majority Certificateholders shall, declare the unpaid
principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and accrued interest thereon to be due
and payable
22
under, and in accordance with the provisions of, the Mortgage.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this SECTION 5.01, upon
an Event of Default specified in SECTION 7.1.5 of the Mortgage, the unpaid
principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and accrued interest thereon shall be
automatically due and payable thereunder. In addition, if an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing under the Mortgage, the Trustee may, or
upon the direction of the Majority Certificateholders, the Trustee (or an
agent of the Trustee engaged by the Trustee selected with the consent of the
Majority Certificateholder) shall, in accordance with the Mortgage, exercise
the remedies provided in SECTION 4 of the Mortgage.
In addition, after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, upon the direction of the Majority Certificateholders, the Trustee
shall, by such officer or agent as it may appoint, sell, convey, transfer and
deliver the Mortgage Loan, without recourse to or warranty by the Trustee or any
Certificateholder, to any Person. In any such case, the Trustee shall sell,
assign, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Mortgage Loan
in one or more lots at public or private sale or sales, at any location or
locations as directed by the Majority Certificateholders, all upon such terms
and conditions as the Majority Certificateholders may reasonably deem advisable
and at such prices as the Majority Certificateholders may reasonably deem
advisable, for cash. The Trustee shall give notice to the Certificateholders
promptly after any such sale.
SECTION 5.02. INCIDENTS OF SALE OF MORTGAGE LOAN. Upon any sale of all or
any part of the Mortgage Loan made either under the power of sale given under
this Trust Agreement or otherwise for the enforcement of this Trust Agreement,
the following shall be applicable:
(a) CERTIFICATEHOLDERS AND TRUSTEE MAY PURCHASE THE MORTGAGE LOAN. Any
Certificateholder, the Seller, the Trustee in its individual or any other
capacity or any other Person may bid for and purchase the Mortgage Loan, and
upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain, possess and dispose of
the Mortgage Loan in their or its or his own absolute right without further
accountability.
(b) RECEIPT OF TRUSTEE SHALL DISCHARGE PURCHASER. The receipt of the
Trustee or of the officer making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to
any purchaser for his purchase money, and, after paying such purchase money and
receiving such receipt, such purchaser or his personal representative or assigns
shall not be obliged to see to the application of such purchase money, or be in
any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application thereof.
(c) APPLICATION OF MONEYS RECEIVED UPON SALE. Any moneys collected by the
Trustee upon any sale made either under the power of sale given by this Trust
Agreement or otherwise for the enforcement of this Trust Agreement, shall be
applied as provided in SECTION 4.02(d).
SECTION 5.03. JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS INSTITUTED BY TRUSTEE.
(a) TRUSTEE MAY BRING SUIT. If there shall be a failure to make payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Mortgage Loan, or if there
shall be any failure to pay Base Rent under the Sublease when due and payable,
then the Trustee shall be, to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the
terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, entitled and empowered to institute any
suits, actions or proceedings at law, in equity or otherwise, for the
23
collection of the sums so due and unpaid on the Mortgage Loan or after
consultation with Mortgagor (which consultation shall not be deemed to impair or
affect in any way the exercise of any remedies with respect thereto) under the
Sublease and shall, to the extent directed by the Majority Certificateholders
and at the expense of the Trust, prosecute any such claim or proceeding to
judgment or final decree with respect to the whole amount of any such sums so
due and unpaid.
(b) TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM; APPOINTMENT OF TRUSTEE AS
ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS. The Trustee, as trustee of an express
trust, or as attorney-in-fact for the Certificateholders, or in both capacities
(irrespective of whether distributions on the Certificates shall then be due and
payable, or the payment of the principal on the Mortgage Loan shall then be due
and payable, as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand to the relevant
obligor for the payment of overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest on
the Mortgage Loan), shall be entitled and empowered to and shall, to the extent
directed by the Majority Certificateholders, file such proofs of claim and other
papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
of the Trustee and of the Certificateholders allowed in any receivership,
insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or any other
judicial proceedings relative to the Subtenant, the Mortgagor or the Seller,
their respective creditors or property. Any receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator (or similar official) in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Certificateholder to make payments in respect of
such claim to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to
the making of such payments directly to the Certificateholders, to pay to the
Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. Nothing
contained in this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to give to the Trustee any
right to accept or consent to any plan of reorganization or otherwise by action
of any character in any such proceeding to waive or change in any way any right
of any Certificateholder.
SECTION 5.04. CONTROL BY CERTIFICATEHOLDERS. The Majority
Certificateholders shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee under this Trust Agreement,
including any right of the Trustee as holder of the Mortgage Loan, PROVIDED
that:
(a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Trust Agreement and would not involve the Trustee in personal
liability or expense,
(b) such direction shall not cause the Trustee to determine that the
action so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the Certificateholders
not taking part in such direction,
(c) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and
(d) the Majority Certificateholders shall have provided to the
Trustee such indemnity for the reasonable costs, expenses and liability
associated with any such action as the Trustee may reasonably require.
24
If the Trustee shall not have received instructions or a Direction from
the Majority Certificateholders with respect to the exercise of any remedy
available to the Trustee or the exercise of any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee under this Trust Agreement within 21 Business Days after request
therefor from the Trustee, the Trustee shall, subject to instructions thereafter
delivered by the Majority Certificateholders, take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, and then shall use the same degree of care and skill in
connection therewith as may be commercially reasonable under such circumstances.
SECTION 5.05. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. The Majority Certificateholders may
on behalf of all Certificateholders waive any past default hereunder and its
consequences or may instruct the Trustee to waive any past default under the
Mortgage Loan and its consequences, except a default:
(a) in the deposit of any Scheduled Payment or Special Payment
under SECTION 4.01 or in the distribution of any payment under SECTION
4.02 on the Certificates, or
(b) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on the Mortgage Loan unless such default is cured in full, or
(c) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under ARTICLE
IX hereof cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
Certificateholder of each Outstanding Certificate affected.
Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist with respect to
this Trust Agreement, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed
to have been cured for every purpose of this Trust Agreement; but no such waiver
shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon. Upon any such waiver, the Trustee shall waive such
Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan.
SECTION 5.06. RIGHT OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS NOT TO BE
IMPAIRED. Anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
including, without limitation, SECTION 5.07 hereof, the right of any
Certificateholder to receive distributions of payments required pursuant to
SECTION 4.02 hereof on the Certificates when due, or to institute suit for
the enforcement of any such payment on or after the applicable Distribution
Date or Special Distribution Date, shall not be impaired or affected without
the consent of such Certificateholder.
SECTION 5.07. CERTIFICATEHOLDERS MAY NOT BRING SUIT EXCEPT UNDER CERTAIN
CONDITIONS. A Certificateholder shall not have the right to institute any suit,
action or proceeding at law or in equity or otherwise with respect to this Trust
Agreement, for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of any other
remedy under this Trust Agreement, unless:
(a) such Certificateholder previously shall have given written
notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;
(b) the Majority Certificateholders shall have requested the Trustee
in writing to institute such action, suit or proceeding and shall have
offered to the Trustee indemnity as provided in SECTION 6.02(d);
25
(c) the Trustee shall have refused or neglected to institute any
such action, suit or proceeding for 30 days after receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity; and
(d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
given to the Trustee during such 30-day period by the Majority
Certificateholders.
It is understood and intended that no one or more of the
Certificateholders shall have any right in any manner whatever hereunder or
under the Certificates to (i) surrender, impair, waive, affect, disturb or
prejudice any property which is part of the Trust Property or the lien of the
Mortgage on any property subject thereto or the rights of the
Certificateholders, (ii) obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to
any other such Holder or (iii) enforce any right under this Trust Agreement,
except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common
benefit of all the Certificateholders subject to the provisions of this Trust
Agreement.
SECTION 5.08. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Every remedy given hereunder to the
Trustee or to any of the Certificateholders shall not be exclusive of any other
remedy or remedies, and every such remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to
every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter given by statute, law,
equity or otherwise.

may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor trustee.
(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Majority
Certificateholders delivered to the Trustee for cause or by Act of the Required
Certificateholders without cause. Such Act shall specify the date when such
removal shall take effect, but in no event shall the date of such removal be
sooner than 30 days following notice to the Trustee.
(d) If a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall obtain actual knowledge
of an Avoidable Tax (as hereinafter defined) which has been or is likely to be
asserted, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Certificateholders thereof and
shall, within 30 days of such notification, resign hereunder unless within such
30-day period the Trustee shall have received notice that the Certificateholders
have agreed to pay such tax. The Majority Certificateholders shall promptly
appoint a successor trustee in a jurisdiction where there are no Avoidable
Taxes. As used herein an "AVOIDABLE TAX" means a state or local tax: (i) upon
(A) the Trust, (B) the Trust Property, (C) Holders of the Certificates or (D)
the Trustee for which the Trustee is entitled to seek reimbursement from the
Trust Property, and (ii) which would be avoided if the Trustee were located in
another state, or jurisdiction within a state, within the United States. A tax
shall not be an "Avoidable Tax" if the Certificateholders shall have agreed to
pay, and shall pay, such tax.
(e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting,
or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Trustee for any reason, the
Majority Certificateholders shall promptly appoint a successor trustee. The
successor trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such
appointment, become the Trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so
appointed as provided above and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter
provided, any Certificateholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Certificate
for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor trustee.
31
(f) The successor trustee shall give notice of the resignation and removal
of the Trustee and appointment of the successor trustee by mailing written
notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Seller and the
Holders of Certificates as their names and addresses appear in the Register.
Each notice shall include the name of such successor trustee and the address of
its corporate trust office which shall be the Corporate Trust Office.
SECTION 6.09. ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR. Every successor
trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Certificateholders and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee
shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts
and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the successor trustee
and at its expense, such retiring Trustee shall execute and deliver an
instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights, powers and
trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to
such successor trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee
hereunder, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any, provided for in SECTION
6.06. Upon request of any such successor trustee and at the successor
trustee's expense, the retiring Trustee and such successor trustee shall
execute and deliver any and all instruments containing such provisions as
shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and for more
fully and certainly vesting in, such successor trustee all such rights,
powers and trusts.
No successor trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of
such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified and eligible under
this Article.
SECTION 6.10. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.
Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, PROVIDED such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto. In case any Certificates shall have been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor
by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt
such authentication and deliver the Certificates so authenticated with the same
effect as if such successor trustee had itself authenticated such Certificates.
SECTION 6.11. MONEY FOR CERTIFICATE PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST. All
moneys deposited with the Trustee for the purpose of any payment on Certificates
shall be deposited and held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the
Certificates entitled to such payment. Moneys so deposited and held in trust
shall constitute a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders of the
Certificates with respect to which such money was deposited.
SECTION 6.12. REGISTRATION OF MORTGAGE LOAN IN TRUSTEE'S NAME. The Trustee
agrees that the Mortgage Loan and Specified Investments, if any, shall be held
in the name of the Trustee or its nominee and held by the Trustee, or, if not so
held, the Trustee or its nominee shall be reflected as the owner of the
Specified Investments, as the case may be, in the register of the issuer of such
Specified Investments. In no event shall the Trustee knowingly invest in, or
hold,
32
the Mortgage Loan or Specified Investments in a manner that would cause the
Trust not to have the ownership interest in the Mortgage Loan or Specified
Investments under the applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code in
effect where the Trustee holds the Mortgage Loan or Specified Investments, or
other applicable law then in effect.
SECTION 6.13. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF TRUSTEE. The Trustee

and will not contravene or result in any breach of, or constitute a
default under, the Trustee's articles of association or by-laws or the
provision of any indenture, mortgage, contract or other agreement to which
it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound;
(d) the execution, delivery and performance by the Trustee of this
Trust Agreement and the Certificate Purchase Agreement will not require
the authorization, consent, or approval of, the giving of notice to, the
filing or registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect
of, any United States or Utah governmental authority or agency regulating
the banking and trust activities of the Trustee;
(e) this Trust Agreement and the Certificate Purchase Agreement have
been duly executed and delivered by the Trustee and constitute the legal,
valid, and binding agreements of the Trustee, enforceable in accordance
with their respective terms, PROVIDED that enforceability may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and general
principles of equity; and
(f) the Trustee does not control, is not controlled by and is not
under common control with, directly or indirectly through one or more of
its intermediaries, the Trust or with any person involved in the
organization or operation of the Trust; and the Trustee has not offered or
provided credit or credit enhancement to the Trust.
SECTION 6.14. WITHHOLDING TAXES; INFORMATION REPORTING. The Trustee, as
trustee of a grantor trust, shall exclude and withhold from each distribution of
principal, premium, if any, and interest and other amounts due hereunder or

33
and, in connection therewith, whenever any present or future taxes or similar
charges are required to be withheld with respect to any amounts payable in
respect of the Certificates, to withhold such amounts and timely pay the same to
the appropriate authority in the name of and on behalf of the holders of the
Certificates, that it will file any necessary withholding tax returns or
statements when due, and that, as promptly as possible after the payment
thereof, it will deliver to each holder of a Certificate appropriate
documentation showing the payment thereof, together with such additional
documentary evidence as such holders may reasonably request from time to time.
The Trustee agrees to file any other information reports as it may be required
to file under United States law.
SECTION 6.15. TRUSTEE'S LIENS. The Trustee, in its individual capacity,
agrees that it will at its own cost and expense promptly take any action as may
be necessary to duly discharge and satisfy in full any mortgage, pledge, lien,
charge, encumbrance, security interest or claim ("TRUSTEE'S LIENS") on or with
respect to the Trust Property which is either (a) attributable to the Trustee in
its individual capacity and which is unrelated to the transactions contemplated
by this Trust Agreement, the Certificate Purchase Agreement or the other
Mortgage Loan Documents, or (b) attributable to the Trustee as trustee hereunder
or in its individual capacity and which arise out of acts or omissions of or by
the Trustee which are prohibited by this Trust Agreement.
SECTION 6.16. CO-TRUSTEES. At any time, for the purpose of meeting any
legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property
may at the time be located, the Seller and the Trustee jointly shall have the
power and shall execute and deliver all instruments, to appoint one or more
Persons approved by the Trustee, to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly
with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part
of the Trust Property, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity,
such title to the Trust Property or any part thereof, and such rights, powers,
duties, trusts or obligations as the Seller and the Trustee may consider
necessary or desirable. If the Seller shall not have joined in such appointment
within 15 days after the receipt by it of a written request so to do, or in case
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone
shall have the power to make such appointment.
No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet
the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under SECTION 6.07 herein and
no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or
separate trustee(s) shall be required. The fees and expenses of any
co-trustee or separate trustee shall be an expense of the Trust. In the case
of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this
SECTION 6.16, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-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 Trustee hereunder or
successor to the Trustee hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Property
or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the
Trustee.
No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act
or omission of any other trustee hereunder. The Trustee may at any time accept
the resignation of or remove
34
any separate trustee or co-trustee. Any notice, request or other writing given
to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate
trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every
instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this
Trust Agreement and the conditions of this ARTICLE VI. Each separate trustee and
co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with
the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either
jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to
all the provisions of this Trust Agreement and specifically including every
provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the
liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument

co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of
its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the Uniform
Commercial Code (including, without limitation, Sections 9-305 and 9-115
thereof) as in force in each relevant jurisdiction; and

and upon Direction of the Majority Certificateholders or the Seller, take such
reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Trust Agreement
were deemed to create a security interest in the property described above, such
security interest would be a perfected security interest of first priority under
applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Trust
Agreement. The Trustee shall file all filings necessary to maintain the
effectiveness of any original filings necessary under the Uniform Commercial
Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction to perfect the Trustee's security
interest in such property, including, without limitation, continuation
statements. In connection herewith, the Trustee shall have all of the rights and
