(b)            The failure of any Committed Note Purchaser to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Committed Note Purchaser (whether or not in the same Investor Group) of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Committed Note Purchaser shall be responsible for the failure of any other Committed Note Purchaser to

5

make the Advance to be made by such other Committed Note Purchaser on the date of any Borrowing.

(c)            Unless the Class A-1 Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Funding Agent prior to the date of any Borrowing that an applicable Investor in the related Investor Group will not make available to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent such Investor’s share of the Advances to be made by such Investor Group as part of such Borrowing, the Class A-1 Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such Investor has made such share available to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(c)  and the Class A-1 Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Swingline Lender, the L/C Provider and/or the Co-Issuers, as applicable, on such date a corresponding amount, and shall, if such corresponding amount has not been made available by the Class A-1 Administrative Agent, make available to the Swingline Lender, the L/C Provider and/or the Co-Issuers, as applicable, on such date a corresponding amount once such Investor has made such portion available to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent.  If and to the extent that any Investor shall not have made such amount available to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent, such Investor and the Co-Issuers jointly and severally agree to repay (without duplication) to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Swingline Lender, the L/C Provider and/or the Co-Issuers, as applicable, until the date such amount is repaid to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Co-Issuers, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Investor, the Federal Funds Rate and without deduction by such Investor for any withholding taxes.  If such Investor shall repay to the Class A-1 Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Investor’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.04  The Series 2007-1 Class A-1 Notes .  On each date an Advance or Swingline Loan is funded or a Letter of Credit is issued hereunder, and on each date the outstanding amount thereof is reduced, a duly authorized officer, employee or agent of the related Series 2007-1 Class A-1 Noteholder shall make appropriate notations in its books and records of the amount, evidenced by the related Series 2007-1 Class A-1 Note, of such Advance, Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit and the amount of such reduction, as applicable.  The Co-Issuers hereby authorize each duly authorized officer, employee and agent of such Series 2007-1 Class A-1 Noteholder to make such notations on the books and records as aforesaid and every such notation made in accordance with the foregoing authority shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded; provided , however , that in the event of a discrepancy between the books and records of such Series 2007-1 Class A-1 Noteholder and the records maintained by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, such discrepancy shall be resolved by such Series 2007-1 Class A-1 Noteholder, the Series 2007-1 Class A Insurer and the Indenture Trustee, and such resolution shall control in the absence of manifest error; provided further that the failure of any such notation to be made, or any

6
