The calculations referred to herein shall be evidenced by the Manager Report received by the Indenture Trustee on any Determination Date.  Any such Prepayment shall be allocated, first to each Series of Warehouse Notes then Outstanding on a pro rata basis, in proportion to the then unpaid principal balance of such Warehouse Notes, until the principal balances of all Warehouse Notes have been paid in full, and then to all Series of Term Notes then Outstanding on a pro rata basis, in proportion to the then unpaid principal balance of each such Series of Term Notes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if sufficient funds are not available to allow the Issuer to prepay the principal balance of the Warehouse Notes in an amount equal to the Asset Base Deficiency on such Payment Date, then the amount of any Supplemental Principal Payment Amount to be actually paid on such Payment Date shall be allocated among all Series of Notes then Outstanding (including the Term Notes) on a pro rata basis, in proportion to the then unpaid principal balance of such Notes.

(d)       Adjustment of Prospective Minimum Principal Payment Amounts and Scheduled Principal Payment Amounts .  In the event that the Issuer makes a prepayment of less than all of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of any Series of Term Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 702(a) or Section 702(b), then the Issuer shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days after the date on which such Prepayment is made) thereafter recalculate (subject to verification by the Indenture Trustee) the Minimum Principal Payment Amount and Scheduled Principal Payment Amount for each future Payment Date for each such Series of Notes being prepaid by an amount equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate amount of the prepayment received by such Series divided by (ii) the number of remaining Payment Dates to and including, (A) the Legal Final Maturity Date (with respect to the Minimum Principal Payment Amount) or (B) the Expected Final Maturity Date (with respect to the Scheduled Principal Payment Amount), for such Series of Notes.

(f)            The Issuer has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver the Notes. Each Note has been duly and validly authorized by the Issuer and, from and after the date on which such Note is executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Series 2012-1 Supplement and delivered to and paid for by the Initial Purchasers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be validly issued and outstanding and shall constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Issuer, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and the Series 2012-1 Supplement and enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law.
 
(g)           Each of the Issuer and CAL has (i) all necessary power and authority to (A) execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Series 2012-1 Related Documents to which it is a party, and (B) perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Series 2012-1 Related Documents to which it is a party, and (ii) duly authorized, by all necessary action, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Series 2012-1 Related Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions provided for in this Agreement and the other Series 2012-1 Related Documents to which it is a party.
 
(h)           Each of this Agreement and the other Series 2012-1 Related Documents to which the Issuer and/or CAL is a party, when executed and delivered by it (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto), shall constitute its legal, valid and binding agreement, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms thereof, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law.
 
(i)            This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each of the Issuer and CAL.

(b)           Each Initial Purchaser severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Issuer, CAL, their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives and each Person, if any, who controls the Issuer or CAL within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “ Issuer Indemnified Parties ”; collectively with the Purchaser Indemnified Parties and in their respective capacities as such, the “ Indemnified Parties ”), against any Losses to which such Issuer Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as the Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Additional Disclosure Documents, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Additional Disclosure Documents, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information provided by such Initial Purchaser.  The Initial Purchasers will reimburse each Issuer Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Issuer Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any claim, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Issuer Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether commenced or threatened, based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, as such expenses are incurred.
 
 
- 19 -

 
 
(c)           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any action described in Section 10(a) or (b) , the Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under Section 10(a) or (b) , notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have other than under such Section 10(a) or (b) .  In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, be counsel to the indemnifying party). In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.
 
(d)           If the indemnity provided for in Section 10(a) or (b) is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses referred to in Section 10(a) or (b) , then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by Applicable Law, not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission that resulted in such Losses.  The relative benefits received by the Issuer Indemnified Parties on the one hand and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers with respect to the offering.  The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by any Issuer Indemnified Party on the one hand, or any Purchaser Indemnified Party on the other, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Losses referred to above in this Section 10(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10(d) , no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

7

 
 
(c)           Consistent with the Company’s ownership of the Sold Assets, as between the parties to this Agreement, the Company shall have the sole right to service, administer and collect the Sold Assets and to assign and/or delegate such right to others.
 
(d)           Except as specifically provided for in Section 3.03 hereof, the Company shall have no obligation to account to the Seller for the Sold Assets.  The Company shall have no obligation to account for, or to return rental payments on or with respect to a Sold Asset, or any interest or other finance charge collected pursuant thereto, to the related Seller, irrespective of whether such collections and charges are in excess of the Net Book Value (or, if applicable, the Finance Lease Balance) of such Sold Asset.  The Company shall have the sole right to retain any gains or profits created by buying, selling or holding the Sold Assets and shall have the sole risk of and responsibility for losses or damages created by such buying, selling or holding.

On or before December 15, 2012 (the “Settlement Date”), Buyer shall provide the Seller with:  (i) the actual number of Containers existing as of the Effective Date along with such supporting documentation as the Seller may reasonably request; and (ii) an accounting of bad debt reserves that had been established by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement. The amount of such bad debt reserves, if any, that were not applied under the Management Agreement shall be added to the Hold Back and if the actual bad debts under the Management Agreement exceed the amount of such bad debt reserves, the amount of such excess shall be applied to such bad debts and subtracted from the Hold Back.  In the event that the aggregate actual number of Containers as of the Effective Date is less than the aggregate number of Containers identified in the Bill of Sale delivered by the Seller at the Closing, then the Buyer shall entitled to offset the Purchase Price of the Containers not delivered on the Closing Date against the Hold Back, and if the respective Purchase Price for such Containers that are not delivered exceeds the Hold-Back, then Seller shall no later than five (5) Business Days following written notice, pay to Buyer by wire transfer the amount by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all Containers not delivered on the Closing Date exceeds the amount of the Hold Back that was offset against the Purchase Price of such Containers that were not delivered.  In the event that the aggregate actual number of Containers as of the Effective Date is greater than the aggregate number of Containers identified in the Bill of Sale delivered by the Seller at the Closing, Buyer shall, against receipt of a Bill of Sale for such additional Containers, pay Seller the respective Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds for each Container not delivered by Seller at the Closing.
 
3.02 Allocation of Revenues.   The parties acknowledge that all NOI accrued for all periods on or prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Containers shall be for the account of and belong to the Seller and shall be paid to Seller pursuant to the Management Agreement. All Gross Revenues accrued for all periods commencing after the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Containers shall be for the account of and belong to Buyer.
 
 
 

 
 
4.              Closing .   The Closing shall take place at the offices of Buyer not later than October 19, 2012, or at such other date, time and place as Seller and Buyer shall mutually agree.

Upon payment of such indemnity, Buyer shall be subrogated to the indemnitee’s rights against any third parties respecting the Claims. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Buyer shall not be required to indemnify Seller if and to the extent Seller is indemnified and fully compensated for its Claim by a third party.
 
(b)           Seller will, indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from any Claim, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, which shall result from (i) a material breach of any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other document delivered by Seller pursuant hereto; or (ii) a material breach by Seller of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, any other agreement, instrument, certificate or other document delivered by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Upon payment of such indemnity, Seller shall be subrogated to Buyer’s rights against any third parties respecting the Claims.
 
(c)           A party seeking indemnification pursuant to Sections 22(a) or (b) above (an “ Indemnified Party ”)   shall give prompt notice to the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “ Indemnifying Party ”)   of the assertion of any Claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder and will give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request; but no failure to give such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual prejudice thereby). The Indemnifying Party may, at its expense, participate in or assume the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding involving a third party; provided, however, that such defense is conducted with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall consult with each other regarding the conduct of such defense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense thereof, and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel to the extent the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party), separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party if the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Claim involving a third party, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend at such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Sections 22(a) or 22(b) for any settlement effected without its written consent (as contemplated above) for any Claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder. No Claim for indemnification, except Claims based on (i) a breach of the representations contained in Section 5.06 hereof, may be first initiated or asserted by any Indemnified Party against any Indemnifying Party after the second anniversary of the Closing Date.  In the event of any claim for indemnity hereunder by Buyer that occurs prior to the date on which the Hold Back Amount is due, Buyer may withhold from the payment of the Holdback Amount an amount equal to Buyer's good faith estimate of damages.  At such time as the claim for indemnity is resolved, if Buyer's actual damages are less than the amount withheld from the Holdback Amount, Buyer shall promptly pay such excess to Seller.

3.01 Consideration; Adjustment to Purchase Price:

 
 

 
 
(a)           In consideration for the sale of the Containers as contemplated in Section 2, the Purchase Price shall be paid by Buyer to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds, as follows:

 
(i)
On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller 95% of the Purchase Price, of which One Million Thirty-Three Thousand Eight Hundred Eighty-Six Dollars and Fourteen Cents (US$1,033,886.14) to be deposited in the Seller’s Account and Thirty-One Thousand Nine Hundred Seventy-Five Dollars and Eighty-Six Cents (US$31,975.86) to be deposited in Calbina’s bank account to be informed by Calbina, pursuant to Seller’s instructions; and;
 
 
(ii)
On December 15, 2012, Buyer shall pay to Seller 5% of the Purchase Price (the “Second Payment”), of which Fifty-Four Thousand Four Hundred Fifteen Dollars and Six Cents (US$54,415.06) (the “Hold Back”) to be deposited in Seller’s Account and One Thousand Six Hundred Eighty-Two Dollars and Ninety-Four Cents (US$1,682.94) to be deposited in Calbina’s bank account to be informed by Calbina, pursuant to Seller’s instructions.
 
(b)           Seller hereby acknowledges that once the deposits under Sections 3.01(a)(i) and (ii) above are made by Buyer (or in the case of the Hold Back, applied as permitted in this Agreement), the full Purchase Price shall have been paid by Buyer to Seller and that the Resale Fee shall be borne exclusively by Seller.
 
(c)           The parties acknowledge that the aggregate Purchase Price to be paid pursuant to Section 3.01(a) above shall be based on Manager’s then best estimate of the number of Containers existing as of the Effective Date. On or before December 15, 2012 (the “Settlement Date”), Buyer shall provide the Seller with:  (i) the actual number of Containers existing as of the Effective Date along with such supporting documentation as the Seller may reasonably request; and (ii) an accounting of bad debt reserves that had been established by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement. The amount of such bad debt reserves, if any, that were not applied under the Management Agreement shall be added to the Hold Back and if the actual bad debts under the Management Agreement exceed the amount of such bad debt reserves, the amount of such excess shall be applied to such bad debts and subtracted from the Hold Back.  In the event that the aggregate actual number of Containers as of the Effective Date is less than the aggregate number of Containers identified in the Bill of Sale delivered by the Seller at the Closing, then the Buyer shall be entitled to offset the Purchase Price of the Containers not delivered on the Closing Date against the Hold Back, and if the respective Purchase Price for such Containers that are not delivered exceeds the Hold-Back, then Seller shall no later than five (5) Business Days following written notice, pay to Buyer by wire transfer the amount by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all Containers not delivered on the Closing Date exceeds the amount of the Hold Back that was offset against the Purchase Price of such Containers that were not delivered.  In the event that the aggregate actual number of Containers as of the Effective Date is greater than the aggregate number of Containers identified in the Bill of Sale delivered by the Seller at the Closing, Buyer shall, against receipt of a Bill of Sale for such additional Containers, pay Seller the respective Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds for each Container not delivered by Seller at the Closing.

 
 

 
 
3.02 Allocation of Revenues.
 
(a)            The parties acknowledge that all NOI accrued for all periods on or prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Containers shall be for the account of and belong to the Seller and shall be paid to Seller pursuant to the Management Agreement. All Gross Revenues accrued for all periods commencing after the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Containers shall be for the account of and belong to Buyer.
 
4.              Closing .   The Closing shall take place at the offices of Buyer not later than October 19, 2012, or at such other date, time and place as Seller and Buyer shall mutually agree.

(c)           A party seeking indemnification pursuant to Sections 21(a) or (b) above (an “ Indemnified Party ”)   shall give prompt notice to the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) of the assertion of any Claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder and will give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request; but no failure to give such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual prejudice thereby). The Indemnifying Party may, at its expense, participate in or assume the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding involving a third party; provided, however, that such defense is conducted with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall consult with each other regarding the conduct of such defense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense thereof, and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel to the extent the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party), separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party if the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Claim involving a third party, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend at such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Sections 21(a) or 21(b) for any settlement effected without its written consent (as contemplated above) for any Claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder. No Claim for indemnification, except Claims based on (i) a breach of the representations contained in Section 5.06 hereof, may be first initiated or asserted by any Indemnified Party against any Indemnifying Party after the second anniversary of the Closing Date.  In the event of any claim for indemnity hereunder by Buyer that occurs prior to the date on which the Hold Back amount is due, Buyer may withhold from the payment of the Hold Back amount an amount equal to Buyer's good faith estimate of damages.  At such time as the claim for indemnity is resolved, if Buyer's actual damages are less than the amount withheld from the Hold Back amount, Buyer shall promptly pay such excess to Seller.
