REF. NO.:		SDB925241547Y

The purpose of this communication is to set forth the terms and conditions of the above-referenced Total Return Swap Facility entered into on the Trade Date specified below in accordance with the terms set forth in a Confirmation dated June 6, 2008 (the “Original Facility”) and amended and restated as of the date hereof (the “Facility”) between GSI and Counterparty. This communication constitutes a “Confirmation” as referred to in the Master Agreement specified below. This communication (this “Confirmation” or this “Amended and Restated Confirmation”) supersedes all prior communications regarding the Original Facility and the Facility (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that this sentence will not be deemed to alter or affect the “Rescission of Notices” provisions set forth below).

This Confirmation is subject to, and incorporates, the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the “2006 Definitions”) and the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions as amended and supplemented by the May 2003 Supplement to the ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions (together the “Credit Definitions” and together with the 2006 Definitions, the “Definitions”), as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”). In the event of any inconsistency between the 2006 Definitions and the Credit Definitions, the 2006 Definitions shall govern.

This Confirmation supplements, forms a part of, and is subject to, the 1992 form of ISDA Master Agreement dated as of June 6, 2008 (including the Schedule and Credit Support Annex thereto), as amended or replaced from time to time (the “Master Agreement”) between GSI and Counterparty. This Confirmation will be read and construed as one with the executed Master Agreement and all other outstanding Confirmations between the parties, so that all such Confirmations and the executed Master Agreement constitute a single Agreement between the parties.

All provisions contained in, or incorporated by reference into the Master Agreement will govern this Confirmation except as expressly modified herein. In the event of any inconsistency between this Confirmation and the Definitions the Master Agreement or another Confirmation, as the case may be, this Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the Facility and each Transaction to which this Confirmation relates.

This Confirmation evidences a separate total return swap transaction (each a “Transaction”) with respect to each Reference Obligation specified in Annex A from time to time as if the details specified in Annex A with respect to that Reference Obligation were set out in the Confirmation in full. Each such Transaction will have a unique Transaction Reference Number as is set out in Annex A. The terms of the Facility and each particular Transaction to which this Confirmation relates are as follows:

		Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document, including without limitation (A) any action to propose or accept any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of CIT Group Inc. where the entity succeeding to such assets would not assume all of the obligations of CIT Group Inc. under the Amended CIT Group Guaranty or (B) any action to (I) impair or restrict the right of GSI to set off any First Total Return Termination Payments or other amounts otherwise payable by GSI hereunder against any amounts payable by Counterparty under the Master Agreement or this Facility, (II) subordinate (including by means of equitable subordination) any rights, claims or payment obligations of GSI rights under the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document in relation hereto, (III) use, or obtain credit secured by, the Posted Credit Support received by GSI pursuant to the terms of the Master Agreement or any other any liens, security interests or rights of setoff in favor of GSI contemplated by the terms of the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document (whether or not adequate protection is deemed to exist with respect to such Posted Credit Support, liens, security interests or rights of setoff for purposes of Sections 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code), (IV) challenge or avoid, or expressly reserve the right to challenge or avoid for any reason any payments or Transfers of Posted Credit Support received by GSI or any obligations incurred by Counterparty or any Credit Support Provider under the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document (including without limitation the Termination Fee), (V) recharacterize or challenge the validity or enforceability of the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document or any ROs (including without limitation any action to recharacterize any sale of assets to the issuer of any RO as a secured financing, or to seek substantive consolidation of the issuer of any RO with any Relevant Entity) or (VI) assert any claim against GSI arising from the entry into, and incurrence and performance of obligations under the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document (any such action in (A) or (B)(I) through (VI) a “TRS Impairment”), provided, however, that no provision in the foregoing definition of TRS Impairment shall require Counterparty to waive, release or relieve GSI of GSI’s duty to perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document, or to waive or release any rights, claims or remedies arising under the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document in relation to any breach by GSI or its Credit Support Provider of such obligations;

		For purposes of clause (B)(II) of the definition of TRS Impairment neither (i) the priority given to financing obtained under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code nor (ii) the granting of a lien or security interest, including any cash management order entered in the Chapter 11 proceeding in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization and permitting intercompany liens, shall be considered to effect a “subordination”, provided that no such priority, lien or security interest is senior to or conflicts with or prejudices (a) the rights of GSI in relation to any RO Haircut Amounts or Posted Credit Support received by GSI pursuant to the terms of the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document, including any liens, security interests or rights of setoff in favor of GSI contemplated by the terms of the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document (whether or not adequate protection is deemed to exist with respect to GSI’s Posted Credit Support, liens, security interests or rights of setoff for purposes of Sections 363 or 364 of the Bankruptcy Code) or (b) the right of GSI to receive performance of any other obligations incurred by Counterparty or any Credit Support Provider under, the Master Agreement, this Facility or any Credit Support Document or (c) otherwise constitutes a TRS Impairment.

		The Forbearance Agreement will be of no further force and effect if Counterparty fails to pay the Termination Fee in full on the Facility Amendment Date or if any of the Forbearance Conditions fails or ceases to be satisfied at any time. The Forbearance Agreement will expire if the Plan of Reorganization is not confirmed by the relevant bankruptcy court (without any amendment, modification or supplement that adversely affects the Material Terms and is not approved by GSI), on or before June 30, 2010. In no event shall GSI be restricted from exercising any otherwise applicable right to designate an Early Termination Date under the Master Agreement for any reason after June 30, 2010.

		(i) any other Event of Default under the Master Agreement, including without limitation

		(A) the occurrence of any event described in Section 5(a)(vii) of the Master Agreement in relation to Counterparty or CIT Barbados, whether or not a bankruptcy of CIT Group Inc. occurs in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization, provided that if no event described in Section 5(a)(vii) clause (1), (3), (4), (5), (6) or (7) occurs with respect to Counterparty or CIT Barbados, neither the Existing Exchange Offer


		Terms nor the filing of a voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding with respect to CIT Group Inc. in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization shall, in and of itself, be construed to give rise to an event described in Section 5(a)(vii) clause (2), (8) or (9) in relation to Counterparty or CIT Barbados; or

		(B) the occurrence of any event described in Section 5(a)(i) or Section 5(a)(iii) of the Master Agreement in relation to Counterparty or any Credit Support Provider as applicable (even if such event arises during or is caused by the existence of a Chapter 11 proceeding in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization), except that no event described in Section 5(a)(iii)(2) in relation to the Amended CIT Group Guaranty shall be deemed to arise from the existence of a Chapter 11 proceeding in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization so long as each of the Forbearance Conditions continues to be met, or

		(ii) any Termination Event under the Master Agreement or this Facility;

		provided, however, that the Forbearance Agreement shall restrict GSI’s right to designate an Early Termination Date on grounds of (aa) an Event of Default under (I) Section 5(a)(ii) solely to the extent that the relevant breach of agreement is a failure to timely provide financials, (II) Section 5(a)(v) solely to the extent that the relevant default under the Specified Transaction is caused by the Exchange/Plan Activities and (III) Section 5(a)(vi) solely to the extent the default under and acceleration of the Specified Indebtedness is caused by the Exchange/Plan Activities or (bb) any right to designate an Early Termination Date in relation to the Master Agreement that arises not under the terms of this Confirmation or the Master Agreement but under the terms of a different contract or agreement that does not form a part of this Confirmation or the Master Agreement;

		(Y) is without prejudice to any other rights and remedies of GSI under the Master Agreement or this Facility and

		(Z) subject to clause (X)(bb) above, is without prejudice to any rights or remedies of GSI or any Affiliates of GSI under any other agreements with Counterparty, Counterparty’s Credit Support Providers and/or their Affiliates.

		“Plan of Reorganization” means the “prepackaged bankruptcy” plan of reorganization of CIT Group Inc. that (1) will satisfy the requirements under Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, (2) shall at a minimum include the following terms (the “Material Terms”): (i) the Amended CIT Group Guaranty will be reinstated and not impaired in any respect by CIT Group Inc. and will be in full force and effect on the effective date of such plan of reorganization; (ii) such plan of reorganization shall contain an express waiver of the rights of CIT Group Inc., the reorganized CIT Group Inc. and any of their respective affiliates to assert or take action to effect any TRS Impairment; and (iii) such plan of reorganization shall not otherwise have any provision effecting or in furtherance of a TRS Impairment and (3) is otherwise substantially in the form and substance set forth in Appendix C of the Exchange Offer, as may be amended from time to time, without giving effect to any amendment or modification that adversely affects the Material Terms.

*Condition to RO Effectiveness*		The Effective Date shall be subject to (A) the availability to GSI of a firm offer from Counterparty or an unaffiliated third party designated by Counterparty on which GSI or its designee could execute the purchase of a principal amount of the RO equal to the Initial Notional Amount at the Offered Price for settlement on the Effective Date, such Offered Price (1) not to exceed the market value of the principal amount of the RO determined by the Calculation Agent in a commercially reasonable manner and (2) unless a Bid Failure Event occurs, to be greater than the applicable Initial Haircut Percentage and (B) receipt by GSI on or prior to such Effective Date of the Initial Payment from CIT Financial (Barbados) Srl (“CIT Barbados”) as required to be made pursuant to a Guaranty provided by CIT Barbados (the “Guaranty”) for application under the Transaction. If a Bid Failure Event occurs, the Effective Date shall occur at Counterparty’s option and the Offered Price shall be equal to zero.

		For the avoidance of doubt, if an Effective Date and Bid Failure Event occurs and the Offered Price is zero, immediately upon the Effective Date, Counterparty shall at its option, after giving the applicable notice described in this Agreement, be entitled to either (i) cause a Re-Striking Date to occur with respect to the related RO such that (x) Counterparty shall be entitled to receive a Net Re-Striking Gain Amount calculated based on the Current Price for such RO on the Effective Date and (y) CIT Barbados shall be required to pay a Net Re-Striking Haircut Addition Amount for such RO on the Effective Date or (ii) receive the Market Related Amount in cash from GSI with respect to the related RO on the Effective Date under the terms of the Credit Support Annex.

*Bid Failure Event*		If prior to the Effective Date either GSI gives notice to Counterparty, or Counterparty gives notice to GSI, that GSI has not identified a firm bid for the RO at the Offered Price after the Condition to RO Effectiveness has been satisfied (for settlement on the Effective Date), then the Effective Date shall be five business days after the effective date of such notice. If prior to the second effective date either GSI gives notice to Counterparty, or Counterparty gives notice to GSI, that GSI has not identified a firm bid for the RO at the Offered Price (for settlement on such second effective date), then the Effective Date shall be five business days after the effective date of such notice. If prior to the third effective date either GSI gives notice to Counterparty, or Counterparty gives notice to GSI, that GSI has not identified a firm bid for the RO at the Offered Price (for settlement on such third effective date), then a Bid Failure Event has occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, GSI is not required to provide a bid for the RO.

*Initial Payment*		CIT Barbados, as required pursuant to the Guaranty, will make a payment to GSI on the Effective Date for each RO calculated as follows:

		Initial Notional Amount times Initial Haircut Percentage divided by FX Rate for the relevant RO; provided, however, that if there is a Bid Failure Event, then the Initial Payment will be zero.

*Notional Amount*		The Initial Notional Amount, as reduced by each Terminated Notional Amount and Actual Principal Repayment from time to time.

Net USD Notional Amount		On any day, the Notional Amount at the close of business (London time) on that day multiplied by the related Initial Price divided by the related FX Rate for that RO.

		(vi) the Initial Haircut Percentage of each RO for which a Re-Striking occurs shall be reset to the Haircut Percentage on the Re-Striking Date.

		For the avoidance of doubt, on any Re-Striking Date, by operation of (and without duplication of) the Initial Payment, the Effective Date Exchange provision of Paragraph 2 and the Termination Payment provision of Paragraph 7, and with respect to each RO for which a Re-Striking Date occurs on such date:

		(1) GSI shall pay to CIT Barbados an amount in USD equal to the Notional Amount times the Initial Haircut Percentage for the relevant RO before the Re-Striking Date for the relevant RO divided by Initial FX Rate (each as determined before such Re-Striking);

		(2) CIT Barbados shall pay to GSI an amount in USD equal to the Notional Amount times Initial Haircut Percentage divided by Initial FX Rate (each as determined pursuant to such Re-Striking).

		(3) Counterparty shall pay to GSI an amount in the Specified Currency equal to the Notional Amount for the relevant RO multiplied by its Current Price (each as determined pursuant to such Re-Striking).

		(4) GSI shall pay to Counterparty an amount in USD equal to the Notional Amount for the relevant RO multiplied by the Current Price divided by the Initial FX Rate for the relevant RO (each as determined pursuant to such Re-Striking).

		(5) GSI shall pay to Counterparty an amount in the Specified Currency equal to the Notional Amount of the relevant RO times Current Price.

		(6) Counterparty shall pay to GSI an amount in USD equal to the Notional Amount times (Initial Price plus Initial Haircut Percentage) divided by Initial FX Rate (each as determined before such Re-Striking).

		Items (1) and (2) shall be netted with respect to all ROs for which a Re-Striking Date is occurring on such date and (i) if a net amount is payable by CIT Barbados to GSI (a “Net Re-Striking Haircut Addition Amount”), CIT Barbados shall pay such Net Re-Striking Haircut Addition Amount to GSI and (ii) if a net amount is payable by GSI to CIT Barbados (a “Net Re-Striking


		Haircut Return Amount”), then

		(A) on each Re-Striking Date occurring during the Retained Cash Flow Period, GSI shall retain and credit such Net Re-Striking Haircut Return Amount to the Additional Collateralization Amount (each such amount a “Retained Net Re-Striking Haircut Return Amount”) and

		(B) on each Re-Striking Date occurring on or after the Target Exposure Date, GSI shall pay such Net Re-Striking Haircut Return Amount to CIT Barbados, provided that if the calculation of Facility Exposure, taking into account the RO Haircut Amount for each RO after giving effect to each Re-Striking occurring on such Re-Striking Date, results in a Delivery Amount or Return Amount becoming due to GSI by Counterparty, GSI shall pay to CIT Barbados only the portion of such amount that exceeds such Delivery Amount or Return Amount (and with respect to the balance of such amount shall treat Counterparty as having Transferred on such date Eligible Credit Support or Posted Credit Support in the form of Cash with a Value equal to such balance).

		Items (3), (4), (5) and (6) shall be netted with respect to all ROs for which a Re-Striking Date is occurring on such date and (i) if a net amount is payable by Counterparty to GSI (a “Net Re-Striking Loss Amount”), Counterparty shall pay such Net Re-Striking Loss Amount to GSI and (ii) if a net amount is payable by GSI to Counterparty (a “Net Re-Striking Gain Amount”), then

		(A) on each Re-Striking Date occurring during the Retained Cash Flow Period, GSI shall retain and credit such Net Re-Striking Gain Amount to the Additional Collateralization Amount (each such amount a “Retained Net Re-Striking Gain Amount”)

		and

		(B) on each Re-Striking Date occurring on or after the Target Exposure Date, GSI shall pay such Net Re-Striking Gain Amount to Counterparty, provided that if the calculation of Facility Exposure, taking into account the Market Related Amount for each RO after giving effect to the each Re-Striking occurring on such Re-Striking Date, results in a Delivery Amount or Return Amount becoming due to GSI by Counterparty, GSI shall pay to Counterparty only the portion of such amount that exceeds such Delivery Amount or Return Amount (and with respect to the balance of such amount shall treat Counterparty as having Transferred on such date Eligible Credit Support or Posted Credit Support in the form of Cash with a Value equal to such balance).

		To the extent a Net Re-Striking Loss Amount is payable to GSI on the Facility Amendment Date, Counterparty authorizes GSI, and GSI agrees to effect such payment by treating an amount of Posted Credit Support in the form of cash posted by Counterparty under the Credit Support Annex equal to (i) if the Net Re-Striking Loss Amount exceeds such posted cash, the amount of such posted cash or (ii) otherwise, the Net Re-Striking Loss Amount, in each case, as being transferred on the Facility Amendment Date as a payment by Counterparty to GSI, with the effect that only any remaining shortfall amount will then be due from Counterparty to GSI.


9. Credit Event Termination

*Credit Event*		Failure to Pay; provided “Failure to Pay” shall mean:

		after the expiration of any applicable grace period (however defined under the terms of the RO), the occurrence of a non-payment of a payment of interest Scheduled to be Due or principal due on the RO on any date, in accordance with the terms of such RO at the time of such failure. The occurrence of a Failure to Pay shall be determined without regard to the effect of any provisions of the RO that permit or provide for the limitation of payments of principal or interest in accordance with the terms of the RO pursuant to an available funds cap or otherwise, that provide for the capitalization or deferral of interest on the RO, or that provide for the extinguishing or reduction of such payments of principal or interest without a corresponding payment to Holders of the RO.

		Bankruptcy (as defined in the Credit Definitions) of the Reference Entity or any Insurer and/or credit support provider. For the avoidance of doubt a “credit support provider” for the foregoing purpose is an entity, if any, indicated as such in Annex A under the heading “guarantor or credit support provider” and does not refer to CIT Group Inc. or CIT Barbados as “Credit Support Providers” for purposes of the Master Agreement.

		"Scheduled to be Due” means in the case of an interest payment that such interest payment would accrue during the related calculation period for the RO using the Reference Obligation Coupon identified in Annex A on the outstanding principal balance of the RO for such calculation period, assuming for this purpose that sufficient funds are available therefor in accordance with the terms of the RO.

Credit Event Notice Requirement		Notice of a Credit Event from GSI to Counterparty shall be in the form on an irrevocable notice in writing of the occurrence of a Credit Event. The notice shall:

		(i) identify the Credit Event in question and shall contain a description in reasonable detail of the facts relevant to the determination that a Credit Event has occurred, and

		(ii) be accompanied with Publicly Available Information (as defined in Sections 3.5(a) and (c) of the Credit Definitions and for such purposes the Specified Number of Public Sources shall be one and the RO is the Obligation).

		A Credit Event Notice shall be subject to the requirements regarding notices set forth in Section 1.10 of the Credit Definitions (except that the giving of notice by telephone shall not be permitted) which, together with the requirements set out above, shall be used to determine whether a Credit Event Notice is “effective.”

*Trustee/Servicer Report*		Periodic statements or reports regarding the RO provided to the Holders of the RO by the trustee, servicer, sub-servicer, master servicer, fiscal agent, paying agent or other similar entity responsible for calculating payment amounts or providing reports pursuant to the underlying instruments of the RO.


Defaulted Termination Date		10 Business Days after the Credit Event Notification Date.

Defaulted Termination Event		Upon GSI notifying Counterparty of a Credit Event in accordance with Credit Event Notice Requirement (“Credit Event Notification Date”), the Transaction will terminate in whole on the Defaulted Termination Date.

10. Breakage Payments

LIBOR Breakage Payment Date:		The occurrence of a (i) Removal Date, (ii) Principal Payment Date, (iii) Defaulted Termination Date; or (iv) a Re-Striking Date, unless any such date occurs on either (a) a Floating Rate Period End Date or (b) the Facility End Date.

*LIBOR Breakage Payment:*		In the event, and only in the event, that a LIBOR Breakage Payment Date occurs, Counterparty shall pay to GSI on each such LIBOR Breakage Payment Date an amount equal to the LIBOR Breakage Payment Amount (if positive) for such LIBOR Breakage Payment Date or GSI shall pay to Counterparty an amount equal to the absolute value of the LIBOR Breakage Payment Amount (if negative) for such LIBOR Breakage Payment Date.

LIBOR Breakage Payment Amount:		With respect to each LIBOR Breakage Payment Date, an amount calculated by the Calculation Agent according to the following formula (the “LIBOR Breakage Payment Amount”):

		With respect to a Principal Payment Date:

		(L1 — L2) x (D / 360) x Amortized Net Notional Amount / FX Rate

		With respect to a Removal Date or Defaulted Termination Date:

		(L1 — L2) x (D / 360) x Terminated Notional Amount x Initial Price / FX Rate

		With respect to a Re-Striking Date and any Net Re-Striking Loss Amount:

		(L1 — L2) x (D / 360) x Net Re-Striking Loss Amount

		Where: —

		"L1” equals the current Floating Rate (excluding the Floating Rate Spread) for the period ending on the next succeeding Floating Rate Period End Date as set on the immediately previous Reset Date.

		"L2” equals USD-LIBOR-BBA minus 0.15%, with a Designated Maturity equal to “D” (as defined below) with the Reset Date being the current LIBOR Breakage Payment Date; provided, however, that if such Designated Maturity shall be one week or less, one-week USD-LIBOR-BBA shall be used. If such Designated Maturity is longer than one week and there is no USD-LIBOR-BBA published with such a Designated Maturity, Linear Interpolation of the next shorter and next longer published Designated Maturities of USD-LIBOR-BBA shall be used.

		"D” equals the actual number of days remaining in the Calculation Period from, and including, the current LIBOR Breakage Payment Date to, but excluding, the next Floating Rate Period End Date.


11. Definitions

*Actual Coupon Payments*		All payments, including, without limitation, interest and fees, if any, paid by or on behalf of the Issuer in respect of an outstanding principal balance of the applicable RO equal to the Notional Amount to a Holder (other than Final Price proceeds or Actual Principal Repayments).

Actual Principal Repayments		In respect of any Principal Payment Date, all payments on such date in respect of the reimbursement of principal allocable to an outstanding principal amount of the RO equal to the Notional Amount (as in effect immediately prior to such Actual Principal Repayment) including, if applicable to such date, principal payments on the maturity date and makewhole or premium payments, if any, paid by or on behalf of the Issuer to a Holder. In no event shall a First Total Return Termination Payment, Second Total Return Termination Payment or a Floating Rate Termination Payment be payable by either party in connection with an Actual Principal Repayment.

Additional Collateralization Amount		On any date of determination after the Amendment Trade Date, the aggregate sum of the following amounts determined on or prior to such date of determination (but in the case of amounts determined on such date, only after giving effect to the crediting of the relevant amount):

		(i) USD 250,000,000 added on the Facility Amendment Date plus

		(ii) all Retained Net RO Coupon Amounts for which a Total Return Coupon Payment Date has occurred, plus

		(iii) all Retained Haircut Principal Amounts and Retained RO Principal Gain Amounts for which a Principal Payment Date has occurred, plus

		(iv) all Retained Haircut Termination Amounts for which a Termination Payment Date has occurred, plus

		(vii) all Retained CSA Interest Amounts for which the Transfer date specified in Paragraph 13 of the Credit Support Annex has occurred, plus

		(viii) all Retained Credit Support Amounts for which a Valuation Date has occurred.

		On any date on which an amount is credited by GSI to the Additional Collateralization Amount (x) in the case of (i) above, such crediting shall give rise to a Delivery Amount of USD 250,000,000 applicable to Counterparty as of the Facility Amendment Date (in addition to any Delivery Amount applicable to Counterparty on such date as a result of any Market Related Amount), (y) in the case of (ii)-(vii) above, Counterparty shall be treated as having Transferred to GSI Eligible Credit Support in the form of cash in the amount of such credit for


		purposes of the Credit Support Annex and GSI shall hold such amount as Posted Credit Support and (z) in the case of (viii) above, GSI shall continue to hold the relevant Retained Credit Support Amount as Posted Credit Support.

*Final Price*		(1) With respect to a Termination Payment Date other than where Bid Disqualification Condition item (iii) below would apply, the price (expressed as a percentage) determined three Business Days prior to the scheduled Termination Payment Date (the “Counterparty Bidding Date”) on the basis of the firm bids, including accrued interest, (each a “Firm Bid”) for a principal amount of the RO equal to the Terminated Notional Amount, for settlement on the scheduled Termination Payment Date, obtained by the Calculation Agent on such Counterparty Bidding Date from Counterparty or Counterparty’s designee, where (i) the Calculation Agent will give Counterparty notice of the Counterparty Bidding Date (unless the Termination Payment Date arises from a Removal Date notified by Counterparty or a Credit Event Notification Date) of its intention to obtain Firm Bids pursuant to this provision and the applicable deadline time for submission of a bid and (ii) Counterparty may, but shall not be obligated to, provide a Firm Bid or procure a Firm Bid from an unaffiliated third party designated by Counterparty; provided, however, that (A) if no Firm Bid is obtained for any portion of the entire Terminated Notional Amount of the RO by the deadline time on the Counterparty Bidding Date, then the Termination Payment Date shall be postponed to the Business Day following the originally scheduled Termination Payment Date and (B) if the party providing the Firm Bid on the Counterparty Bidding Date fails to perform its obligation to make payment for the Terminated Notional Amount based on such Firm Bid on the scheduled Termination Payment Date, the Termination Payment Date shall be postponed to the fourth Business Day following the originally scheduled Termination Payment Date.

		(2) With respect to a Termination Payment Date where (x) Bid Disqualification item (iii) below would apply or (y) the proviso in (1)(A) above applies or (z) the proviso in (1)(B) above applies, the price (expressed as a percentage) determined three Business Days prior to the scheduled Termination Payment Date (in the case of (x)) or the postponed Termination Payment Date (in the case of (y) or (z)), as applicable (the “Alternative Bidding Date”) on the basis of the highest of the Firm Bids for a principal amount of the RO equal to the Terminated Notional Amount, for settlement on the Termination Payment Date, obtained by the Calculation Agent on such Alternative Bidding Date; where (i) the Calculation Agent shall attempt to obtain a Firm Bid for the Terminated Notional Amount of the RO from one or more Independent Dealers, (ii) except in the case of an Alternative Bidding Date occurring due to the failure of the party providing the Firm Bid on the Counterparty Bidding Date to perform its obligation to make payment for the Terminated Notional Amount as described in (1)(B) above (aa) the Calculation Agent will give Counterparty notice of its intention to obtain Firm Bids pursuant to this provision and the applicable deadline time for submission of bids and (bb) Counterparty may, but shall not be obligated to, provide a Firm Bid or procure a Firm Bid from an unaffiliated third party designated by Counterparty and (iv) if no Firm Bid is obtained for any portion of the entire Terminated Notional Amount of the Reference Obligation by the deadline time on the Bidding Date, then the Final Price for such portion shall be deemed to be zero per cent.

		Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Calculation Agent shall be entitled to


		disregard as invalid any Firm Bid submitted by any third party if, in the Calculation Agent’s commercially reasonable judgment,

		(i) either (x) such third party is ineligible to accept assignment or transfer of the relevant RO or portion thereof, as applicable, substantially in accordance with the then-current market practice in the principal market for the RO, as reasonably determined by the Calculation Agent, or (y) such third party would not, through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts, be able to obtain any consent required under any agreement or instrument governing or otherwise relating to the RO to the assignment or transfer of the RO or portion thereof, as applicable, to it;

		(ii) such Firm Bid is not bona fide, including, without limitation, due to (x) the insolvency of the bidder or (y) the inability, failure or refusal of the bidder to settle the purchase of the RO or portion thereof, as applicable, or otherwise settle transactions in the relevant market or perform its obligations generally; or

		(iii) in connection with any Firm Bid procured by Counterparty on any Counterparty Originated Asset (as defined below), Counterparty is in breach of the Indemnity Letter provided in connection with addition of such RO or any other Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in relation to Counterparty.

		(each of (i), (ii) or (iii) a “Bid Disqualification Condition”).

Terminated Notional Amount		In respect of each Termination Payment Date (i) in the case of a Termination Payment Date arising other than from a Removal Date, the current Notional Amount in full and (ii) in the case of a Termination Payment Date arising from a Removal Date, the portion of the Notional Amount designated for removal by Counterparty in connection with such Removal Date.

Transaction Termination Date		As specified in Annex A.

12. Other Terms

*Collateral*		Credit Support Annex; provided that, the component of a party’s Exposure attributable to this Facility and each Transaction hereunder will be the Facility Exposure as determined below.

		“Market Related Amount” means [(Initial Price divided by FX Rate) minus ([Current Price minus Haircut Percentage] divided by Current FX Rate)] times Notional Amount plus Accrued Floating Amount.

		“Accrued Floating Amount” means the Floating Rate Payment accrued from (and including) the previous Floating Rate Period End Date to (but excluding) the date of calculation.

		“Facility Exposure” means, as of any date of determination (i) on or after the Amendment Trade Date but prior to the Target Exposure Date, the Ramp Up


		Advance Rate Exposure and (ii) on or after the Target Exposure Date, the Target Advance Rate Exposure.

		“Ramp Up Advance Rate Exposure” means on any date of determination

		(a) the sum of the Market Related Amounts calculated for each RO in the Portfolio as of such date of determination plus

		(b) the Additional Collateralization Amount as of such date of determination (after giving effect to any credits thereto occurring on such date).

		“Target Advance Rate Exposure” means on any date of determination

		(a) the sum of the Market Related Amounts calculated for each RO in the Portfolio as of such date of determination plus

		(b) (i) 75% times (ii) the Present Value Facility Fee as of such date of determination plus

		(c) the greater of (x) zero and (y) (A) 25.5% times the Present Value Facility Fee as of such date of determination minus (B) the aggregate of the RO Haircut Amounts as of such date of determination for each RO included in the Facility on such date.

		“Target Exposure Date” means, except as provided under “Designation of Target Exposure Date,” a date designated as such by either party by three Business Days’ prior written notice to the other, provided that such notice is given on or after the first date after the Facility Amendment Date on which the Net Target Advance Rate Exposure is zero or less.

		“Net Target Advance Rate Exposure” means on any date of determination (A) (i) 75% times (ii) the Present Value Facility Fee as of such date of determination minus (B) the Additional Collateralization Amount as of such date of determination (after giving effect to any credits to the Additional Collateralization Amount occurring on such date).

		“Retained Cash Flow Period” means the period on or after the Amendment Trade Date but prior to the Target Exposure Date.

		“RO Haircut Amount” means for each RO and on any date of determination, the product of (A) Notional Amount times (B) Haircut Percentage divided by (C) Current FX Rate.

		“Current Price” means the bid side market value of the RO (expressed as percentage of principal balance) as determined by Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion. The parties are entitled to assume that there has been no change in the Current Price, and rely on the preceding notification, until such time as a new Current Price is notified to the parties by the Calculation Agent.

		If the Facility Exposure is a positive number, then such amount shall be deemed to be a positive Settlement Amount for the purposes of determining GSI’s Exposure in respect of the Transactions and a negative Settlement Amount for the purposes of determining Counterparty’s Exposure in respect of the Transactions.



		If the Facility Exposure is a negative number, then such amount shall be deemed to be a negative Settlement Amount for purposes of determining GSI’s Exposure in respect of the Transactions and positive Settlement Amount for the purposes of determining Counterparty’s Exposure in respect of the Transactions; provided, however, that in the event that the Facility Exposure is a negative amount which exceeds the Available Maximum Aggregate Notional Amount, then the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not apply and the Available Maximum Aggregate Notional Amount shall be deemed to be a negative Settlement Amount for purposes of determining GSI’s Exposure in respect of all of the Reference Obligations in the Portfolio and positive Settlement Amount for the purposes of determining Counterparty’s Exposure in respect of all of the Reference Obligations in the Portfolio.

		“Available Maximum Aggregate Notional Amount” means, on any date, Maximum Aggregate Notional Amount minus Aggregate Notional Amount.

		Notwithstanding the provisions of the Credit Support Annex:

		(i) on any Valuation Date during the Retained Cash Flow Period which is also a Principal Payment Date or Termination Payment Date on which an Actual Principal Payment or Terminated Notional Amount has been determined in relation to an RO, Posted Credit Support having a Value equal to the greater of zero and

		(A) any positive Market Related Amount in relation to such RO on the immediately preceding Valuation Date, based on the Notional Amount prior to giving effect to the relevant Actual Principal Payment or Terminated Notional Amount minus

		(B) any positive Market Related Amount in relation to such RO on such Valuation Date, based on the Notional Amount after giving effect to the relevant Actual Principal Payment or Terminated Notional Amount (and if the Market Related Amount on such Valuation Date is negative or zero, the amount in this clause (B) is zero),

		shall be retained by GSI and credited to the Additional Collateralization Amount (each such amount a “Retained Credit Support Amount”), and any corresponding Delivery Amount or Return Amount applicable to GSI shall be reduced accordingly;

		(ii) on any date during the Retained Cash Flow Period any Interest Amount otherwise payable under Paragraph 6(d)(ii) of the Credit Support Annex shall be retained by GSI and credited to the Additional Collateralization Amount (any such amount a “Retained CSA Interest Amount”); and

		(iii) on any date on which the aggregate of the RO Haircut Amounts does not exceed the Minimum Transfer Amount applicable to Delivery Amounts by Counterparty under the Credit Support Annex, the Minimum Transfer Amount applicable to Delivery Amounts by Counterparty shall be zero.

		For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the provisions in this Confirmation providing for



		GSI to retain and credit certain amounts to the Additional Collateralization Amount are in addition to and without limitation of GSI’s right to retain and apply any net payments owed to Counterparty under the Master Agreement or this Facility on any date to any Delivery Amount actually applicable to Counterparty under the Credit Support Annex on such date and (ii) the Transfer of Eligible Credit Support arising from any one or more credits to the Additional Collateralization Amount on any date is in addition to and not in limitation of any Delivery Amount applicable to Counterparty under the Credit Support Annex on the same date by virtue of the calculation of Exposure prior to such Transfer.

		In the event that GSI receives written notice from Counterparty that Counterparty, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, disputes the Current Price as determined above (a “Dispute Notice”), (i) the Current Price on the relevant date shall be the Current Price determined by the Calculation Agent; and (ii) Counterparty shall be entitled to obtain an Independent Price on the Business Day following the date on which Counterparty satisfies its obligation to Transfer Eligible Credit Support pursuant to Paragraph 3(a) of the Credit Support Annex.

		If Counterparty obtains an Independent Price on the Business Day following the date on which it satisfies its obligation pursuant to Paragraph 3(a) of the Credit Support Annex, the Current Price on such Business Day shall be the Independent Price so obtained, provided, however, that if GSI reasonably believes, acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, that such Independent Price does not reflect the market value of the RO, GSI shall notify Counterparty and (i) the Current Price on the relevant date shall be the Current Price determined by the Calculation Agent; and (ii) Counterparty shall on the next Business Day obtain a firm bid for the Notional Amount from at least one Independent Dealer (an “Independent Bid”) and the Current Price on such Business Day shall be such Independent Bid (subject to any Bid Disqualification Condition).

		If Counterparty does not obtain an Independent Price on the next Business Day following a Dispute Notice, or does not obtain an Independent Bid on request by GSI, the Current Price on such Business Day shall be the market bid price of the RO as determined by Calculation Agent as of the date of such calculation.

*Exposure if Facility Amendment Date Fails to Occur*		For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Facility Amendment Date does not occur pursuant to the “Conditions to Facility Amendment Date Effectiveness” set forth above, Exposure will be calculated pursuant to the terms of the Original Facility, such that any amounts credited to the Additional Collateralization Amount under (ii) through (viii) of the definition thereof will no longer be included in the Exposure of GSI to Counterparty for purposes of the Credit Support Annex.

*Independent Price*		The Independent Price shall be on any date of determination the average of the market bid prices, including accrued interest, relating to a principal amount of the Reference Obligation equal to the Notional Amount (the “Quote Size”) provided by at least two Independent Dealers nominated by Counterparty; provided that if at least two bids are not available, then only one bid may be used, and if no bids are available, then the Current Price on such Business Day shall be the market bid price of the RO as determined by Calculation Agent as of the date of such calculation.


		“Independent Dealers” means Bank of America, Bank of New York, Barclays Capital, BNP Paribas, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Royal Bank of Scotland, UBS, Wachovia, Wells Fargo, the lead arrangers or underwriters in respect of the RO, any Affiliate or successor of any of the foregoing and any other unaffiliated third party designated by Counterparty and agreed to by GSI.

*Designation of Target Exposure Date*		Upon the reasonable request of Counterparty from time to time, GSI shall include in any valuation or exposure statement in relation to the Facility that GSI may otherwise provide to Counterparty a calculation of the Additional Collateralization Amount. If on the basis of receipt of such calculations or otherwise Counterparty concludes in good faith that the Net Target Advance Rate Exposure is zero or less, Counterparty may by written notice to GSI request GSI to designate the Target Exposure Date (a “Target Exposure Date Request”). Within two Business Days of receiving such Target Exposure Date Request from Counterparty, GSI shall by written notice to Counterparty, (i) advise Counterparty of GSI’s determination as to whether the Net Target Advance Rate Exposure is zero or less on the date of such notice and (ii) if GSI has advised that the Net Target Advance Rate Exposure is zero or less, the second Business Day following such notice shall be the Target Exposure Date. If after receiving a Target Exposure Date Request from Counterparty, GSI advises Counterparty that GSI has determined that the Net Target Advance Rate Exposure is greater than zero, and Counterparty delivers GSI a notice disputing such determination, Counterparty and GSI shall consult with each other in good faith to resolve such dispute. Other than in accordance with these procedures, GSI shall not be responsible for ensuring that the Target Exposure Date has been designated when the Net Target Advance Rate Exposure is zero or less.

Payments on Early Termination		Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Master Agreement, upon the occurrence of an Early Termination Date in respect of any Transaction hereunder or under the Facility, then the Loss of the parties in respect of each Transaction shall be determined for such Transaction as equal to the Market Related Amount in relation thereto; where if the Market Related Amount is a negative number, then such amount shall be deemed to be a positive Loss of Counterparty and a negative Loss of GSI in respect of the relevant Transaction and if the Market Related Amount is a positive number, then such amount shall be deemed to be a negative Loss of Counterparty and a positive Loss of GSI in respect of the relevant Transaction; provided, however, that for purposes of determination of Loss (i) the reference in the definition of Market Related Amount to “Current Price” shall be deemed to be a reference to “Final Price,” (ii) the second Business Day following the Early Termination Date shall be treated as the Termination Payment Date solely for purposes of the definition of “Final Price” and (iii) for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions set forth under “Collateral” (other than the definitions of Market Related Amount and Accrued Floating Amount) shall not apply.

		In addition to the payments set out above, so long as GSI is not the Defaulting Party or the sole Affected Party, upon the occurrence of an Early Termination Date in respect of any Transaction hereunder or under the Facility, an amount equal to the Unpaid Fee Notional Amount as of such Early Termination Date


		shall be deemed to be an additional positive Loss of GSI payable to GSI on such Early Termination Date. The parties agree that the Unpaid Fee Notional Amount represents a reasonable pre-estimate of GSI’s loss resulting from the occurrence of an Early Termination Date in respect of any Transaction hereunder or under the Facility and not a penalty.

		“Accrued Facility Fee” shall mean, as of any date of determination, any accrued but unpaid Facility Fee as at that date.

		“Unpaid Fee Notional Amount” means in relation to any Early Termination Date the aggregate of (i) the Accrued Facility Fee, (ii) the Present Value Facility Fee and (iii) any unpaid Termination Fee as of such Early Termination Date.

		“Present Value Facility Fee” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the present value (as determined by the Calculation Agent) of the Facility Fee which would accrue from (and including) that date to (and including) the date falling 20 years after the Facility Commencement Date, assuming no Optional Termination Date were to occur and discounting each scheduled Facility Fee amount from the relevant scheduled Facility Fee Payment Date based on the value of “USD-ISDA-Swap Rate” for a maturity equal to the period of time from the date of determination to such scheduled Facility Fee Payment Date, as determined by the Calculation Agent.

*RO Conversion*		If the RO or any portion thereof is irreversibly converted or exchanged into or for any securities, obligations or other assets or property (“*Exchange Consideration*”), or any payment on the RO is paid in the form of any Exchange Consideration that is not cash, thereafter such Exchange Consideration will constitute the RO or portion thereof and the Calculation Agent shall in good faith adjust the terms of the related Transaction as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to preserve the theoretical value of such Transaction to the parties immediately prior to such exchange or, if such exchange results in a change in value, the proportionate post-exchange value, and determine the effective date of such adjustments; provided, however, that if the Calculation Agent shall determine in good faith that it is not possible to make such revisions, a Removal Date shall be deemed to occur in relation to such RO and the Transaction related to such RO shall be terminated.

Indemnity Letter Cross Default		For the avoidance of doubt, any failure of the Counterparty or any other party having obligations under an Indemnity Letter (other than GSI) to comply with its obligations thereunder shall constitute a Potential Event of Default and, if not cured within the time period specified in the Schedule, an Event of Default, under Section 5(a)(ii) of the Master Agreement, with Counterparty as the Defaulting Party.

TRS Conflicting Indebtedness		It shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(ii) of the Master Agreement, with Counterparty as the Defaulting Party, and without provision for cure, if the documentation in relation to the Series A Notes contemplated by the Exchange Offer and Plan of Reorganization or any other secured indebtedness of Counterparty or any Credit Support Provider from time to time (“Other Secured Indebtedness”) contains any representation, warranty, affirmative or


		negative covenant obligation or event of default (in each case including, without limitation, relating to restrictions on liens or indebtedness) applicable to Counterparty or any Credit Support Provider that both (i) would be violated or breached by the incurrence of or performance by Counterparty or any Credit Support Provider of its obligations under the Master Agreement or this Facility or would conflict with the liens granted to GSI hereunder but for a TRS Lien Exception and (ii) fails to provide for a TRS Lien Exception (such Other Secured Indebtedness in such circumstance, “TRS Conflicting Indebtedness”).

*Amended and Restated Guaranty Provisions*		On or after the Facility Amendment Date, any references in the Master Agreement or herein to the Credit Support Document provided by CIT Group Inc. shall refer to the Amended and Restated Guaranty dated as of the Facility Amendment Date (the “Amended CIT Group Guaranty”).

		Any failure by CIT Group Inc. to comply with the provisions of the second subparagraph of Paragraph 10 of the Amended CIT Group Guaranty shall be deemed to constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(viii) (Merger Without Assumption) of the Master Agreement.

*Rating Agency Reports*		With respect to each Counterparty Originated Asset, the servicer that is a party to the Indemnity Letter has agreed under the Indemnity Letter (and with respect to each other RO, Counterparty agrees) (a) to be responsible for and shall pay or arrange for payment of the annual fees of Moody’s and S&P and other costs of maintaining the rating of each RO as a monitored rating during the term of the Facility and (b) to deliver to GSI promptly from time to time any S&P, Moody’s and Fitch reports regarding any ROs that are available to holders of the RO or to Counterparty or its Affiliates in any capacity as originator, servicer, administrator, manager or otherwise in connection with any Reference Entity or RO (“Rating Agency Reports”).


Special Reference Obligation Termination Events		In the event that (i) any of Counterparty or its Affiliates or the Reference Entity fails to comply with any of the covenants or operating procedures assumed or specified to be performed by such parties in a True Sale and Nonconsolidation Opinion as a premise for such opinion, and such failure is not cured within the cure period applicable to a Potential Event of Default under Section 5(a)(ii) of the Schedule;

		(ii) a change in law (including application or interpretation of existing law) results in a True Sale and Nonconsolidation Opinion becoming invalid under current law as reasonably demonstrated by GSI, and an updated True Sale and Nonconsolidation Opinion taking account of such change in law and otherwise satisfactory to GSI is not delivered to GSI within 30 days of GSI’s request therefor;

		(iii) a change in law (including application or interpretation of law) would render a Transaction under this Facility no longer to be subject to termination, netting and closeout without restriction from any automatic stay or similar restriction in an insolvency proceeding under Canadian or U.S. law, as reasonably demonstrated by GSI;

		(iv) the rating of the RO ceases to be a monitored rating subject to periodic update by the relevant agency;

		(v) payments of interest in relation to the RO become subject to withholding tax under applicable law (unless fully compensated under a customary gross-up provision); or

		(vi) a Qualifying [*]-Rated RO ceases to satisfy clause (ii) of the definition thereof, unless such RO would be eligible to be included in one of the categories identified in clause (xv) a., b. or d. of the definition of Eligible RO and adding such RO to such category would not cause the Portfolio to violate any of the limits set forth in such clause (xv) a., b. or d.;

		then GSI may designate a Removal Date in respect of the relevant RO or Transaction.

*Governing Law*		This Confirmation and each Transaction documented hereby will be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the law of the State of New York (without reference to its choice of law doctrine).

14. Additional Acknowledgement and Agreements:

(a) Counterparty hereby represents to and acknowledges and agrees with GSI that:

(i) (w) without limitation of Section 9.1 of the Credit Derivatives Definitions, neither GSI nor any of its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to hedge the Transaction or to own or hold the Reference Obligation or any securities of the Reference Entity or its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, as a result of any Transaction, and GSI and its Affiliates may establish, maintain, modify, terminate or re-establish any hedge position or any methodology for hedging at any time without regard to Counterparty;

(x) Counterparty is not relying on any representation, warranty or statement by GSI or any of its Affiliates as to whether, at what times, in what manner or by what method GSI or any of its Affiliates may engage in any hedging activities;

(y) if GSI does hedge the Transaction or GSI or any hedge counterparty does own or hold the Reference Obligation, directly or indirectly, as a result of any Transaction, GSI and its Affiliates and any such hedge counterparty may act with respect to such Reference Obligation and any other securities of the Reference Entity or its Affiliates in the same manner as if the Transaction did not exist and may originate, purchase, sell, hold or trade, and may exercise or fail to exercise voting, consensual, amendment or remedial rights in respect of the Reference Obligations or other obligations, securities or financial instruments of, issued by or linked to the Reference Entity or its Affiliates in their sole and absolute discretion, regardless of whether any such action

might have an adverse effect on the Reference Entity, the value of the Reference Obligation or the position of the Counterparty to this Transaction or otherwise; and

(z) it has consulted with its own tax advisors to the extent that it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own decisions regarding entering into this Facility and each Transaction based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisors as it has deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by GSI or any of its Affiliates or agents.

(ii) The Facility comprises a series of derivative Transactions and no such Transaction is intended by the parties to be a loan, nor is GSI required to provide a bid at any time in relation to any RO;

(iii) The fair value of the assets of the Counterparty will exceed the debt and liabilities, subordinated, contingent and otherwise of the Counterparty and Counterparty will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

(b) each party acknowledges and agrees that:

(i) (A) the Master Agreement and each Transaction entered into under this Confirmation is a “swap agreement” and/or a “securities contract” within the meaning given to such term under Section 101(53B) of the United States Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”); (B) it is a “swap participant” within the meaning given to such term under Section 101(53C) of the Bankruptcy Code and (C) all Transactions entered into hereunder will constitute “eligible financial contracts” for purposes of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) and the Winding Up and Restructuring Act (Canada);

(ii) Unless identified as an underwriter or arranger in an offering document relating to an RO, GSI and its Affiliates have played no role in structuring or arranging for the issuance of any RO or in negotiating or establishing the terms of such RO. Whether or not GSI or its Affiliates are identified as an underwriter or arranger in an offering document relating to an RO, any and all information that may be provided by GSI to Counterparty hereunder with respect to any RO is not being furnished by GSI in the capacity of an underwriter or dealer of the RO in connection with this Transaction and GSI accepts no responsibility or liability therefor.

(iii) The contents of this Confirmation and the other agreements relating to the Facility are confidential and shall not be disclosed to any third party, and neither party shall make any public announcement relating to this Facility without consent of the other party; except that disclosure of this Confirmation and the terms of the Facility is permitted (A) where required or appropriate in response to any summons, subpoena, or otherwise in connection with any litigation or regulatory inquiry or to comply with any applicable law, order, regulation, ruling, or disclosure requirement, including without limitation, any requirement of any regulatory body or stock exchange where the shares of such disclosing party are listed, as determined by the disclosing party in good faith following consultation with the other party hereto, (B) to officers, directors, employees, attorneys and advisors of the parties or their affiliates who are subject to a duty of confidentiality to the disclosing party or such affiliate, (C) to rating agencies and (D) where the information has otherwise become public (other than as a result of a breach of this subparagraph (b)(iii)). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Confirmation or any other document, GSI and Counterparty (and each employee, representative, or other agent of GSI or Counterparty) may each disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to them relating to such U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure (as those terms are used in Treasury Regulations under Sections 6011, 6111 and 6112 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), other than any information for which nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws. Without limitation of (iii)(A) above, Counterparty agrees (A) to arrange for CIT Group Inc. promptly to make disclosure of the terms of this Confirmation and the Facility in a filing on Form 8-K pursuant to the reporting provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

“Exchange Act”) and as otherwise required under the provisions of the Exchange Act, (B) to afford GSI a reasonable opportunity to review the form of such disclosure in advance, consistent with the performance by CIT Group Inc. of its obligations referred to in (A), and (C) to cooperate in good faith with any reasonable request by GSI to seek confidential treatment from the Securities and Exchange Commission for specific provisions of this Confirmation, provided however, GSI shall pay all reasonable fees (including reasonable legal fees) incurred in connection with such request.

(iv) as of the Effective Date and so long as either party has or may have any obligation under any Transaction, it is not and will not be an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)), subject to Title I of ERISA, a “plan” (as defined in Section 4975(e) of the Code), subject to Section 4975 of the Code or an entity whose underlying assets include the assets of any such plan by reason of 29 CFR 2510.3-101, Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise.

(c) CIT Barbados shall be an express third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Facility specifying payment obligations to CIT Barbados, provided that such payment obligations shall be subject to reduction and setoff on any date in respect of amounts due and unpaid by Counterparty hereunder.

(d) The parties agree to amend the definition of “Indemnifiable Tax” by adding the following to the end of the definition:

“Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Tax imposed by reason of a payment deemed made or received between Counterparty and an affiliate thereof, or between affiliates of Counterparty, by reason of this Facility or a Transaction hereunder, and related transactions, shall be treated as (i) an Indemnifiable Tax on a payment under this Agreement in the case of payments made by Counterparty or its affiliates to GSI and (ii) a Tax on a payment under this Agreement which is not an Indemnifiable Tax in the case of payments made by GSI to Counterparty or its affiliates.”

15. Agreement as to Confirmation:

Counterparty hereby agrees (a) to check this Confirmation (Reference No SDB925241547Y) carefully and immediately upon receipt so that errors or discrepancies can be promptly identified and rectified and (b) to confirm that the foregoing correctly sets forth the terms of the agreement between GSI and Counterparty with respect to the Transactions to which this Confirmation relates, by manually signing this Confirmation and providing the other information requested herein and immediately returning an executed copy to Swap Administration, Goldman Sachs International, facsimile No +1 212 428 9189).
