Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 12.1) conclusive in favour of the Indenture Trustee, Funding LP and Rental LP, if made in the manner provided in this Section.
 
(b)  
The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness to such execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership, on behalf of such corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Indenture Trustee deems reasonably sufficient.
 
(c)  
(i)           The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.
 
(ii)  
If Funding LP shall solicit from the Holders any Action, Funding LP may, at its option, by a Funding LP Certificate, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such Action, but Funding LP shall have no obligation to do so. If Funding LP does not so fix a record date, such record date shall be the later of thirty (30) days before the first solicitation of such Action or the date of the most recent list of Noteholders furnished to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 14.1 before such solicitation.  Such Action may be given before or after the record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Notes Outstanding have authorized or agreed or consented to such Action, and for that purpose the Notes Outstanding shall be computed as of the record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

(d)  
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Note shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or Funding LP in reliance thereon whether or not notation of such Action is made upon such Note.

Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee and Partnerships
 
Any action of Noteholders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with:
 
(a)  
the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by Funding LP or Rental LP shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or
 
(b)  
Funding LP or Rental LP by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first-Class postage prepaid, to Funding LP or Rental LP, as applicable, addressed to each at 6050 Indian Line, Mississauga, ON, LV4 1G5, Attention: Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer.

Notices to Noteholders; Waiver
 
(a)  
Where this Indenture, any Indenture Supplement or any Note provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein, in such Indenture Supplement or in such Note expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, sent by facsimile, sent by electronic transmission or personally delivered to each Noteholder affected by such event, at such Noteholder’s address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, facsimile, electronic transmission or delivery neither the failure to mail, send by facsimile, electronic transmission or deliver such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, sent by facsimile, electronic transmission or delivery to any particular Noteholders shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders and any notice that is mailed, sent by facsimile, electronic transmission or delivered in the manner herein provided shall conclusively have been presumed to have been duly given.
 
Where this Indenture, any Indenture Supplement or any Note provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.
 
(b)  
In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or otherwise, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to a Noteholder when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any method of notification as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and Funding LP shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.
 
 
- 23 -

 
 
(c)  
With respect to any Class of Notes, the applicable Indenture Supplement or any Note Purchase Agreement may specify different or additional means of giving notice to the Holders of the Notes of such Class.

(c)  
With respect to Notes issued within Canada, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement, or with respect to Notes issued outside Canada, if specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement:
 
(i)  
If at any time the Depository for a Global Note notifies Funding LP that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Note or if at any time the Depository for the Notes for such Series or Class ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Act (Ontario), or other applicable statute or regulation, Funding LP shall appoint a successor Depository with respect to such Global Note. If a successor Depository for such Global Note is not appointed by Funding LP within ninety (90) days after Funding LP receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, Funding LP shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee or its agent, upon receipt of a Funding LP Certificate requesting the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such Series or Class in exchange for such Global Note, shall authenticate and deliver, individual Notes of such Series or Class of like tenor and terms in an aggregate Stated Principal Amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount of the Global Note in exchange for such Global Note.
 
(ii)  
Funding LP may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Notes of any Series or Class or portion thereof issued or issuable in the form of one or more Global Notes shall no longer be represented by such Global Note or Notes. In such event Funding LP shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of a Funding LP Certificate for the authentication and delivery of individual Notes of such Series or Class in exchange in whole or in part for such Global Note, shall authenticate and deliver individual Notes of such Series or Class of like tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate Stated Principal Amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount of such Global Note or Notes representing such Series or Class or portion thereof in exchange for such Global Note or Notes.
 
(iii)  
If specified by Funding LP pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 3.1 with respect to Notes issued or issuable in the form of a Global Note, the Depository for such Global Note may surrender such Global Note in exchange in whole or in part for individual Notes of such Series or Class of like tenor and terms in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to Funding LP and such Depository. Thereupon Funding LP shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee or its agent shall authenticate and deliver, without service charge (A) to each Person specified by such Depository a new Note or Notes of the same Series or Class of like tenor and terms and of any authorized denomination as requested by such Person in aggregate Stated Principal Amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest in the Global Note; and (B) to such Depository a new Global Note of like tenor and terms and in an authorized denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the Stated Principal Amount of the surrendered Global Note and the aggregate Stated Principal Amount of Notes delivered to the Holders thereof.
 
 
- 27 -

 
 
(iv)  
If any Event of Default has occurred with respect to such Global Notes, and Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 50% of the unpaid Outstanding Principal Amount of the Global Notes of that Class advise the Indenture Trustee and the Depository that a Global Note is no longer in the best interest of the Noteholders, the Holders of Global Notes of that Class may exchange such Notes for individual Notes.
 
(v)  
In any exchange provided for in any of the preceding paragraphs, Funding LP shall execute and the Indenture Trustee or its agent shall authenticate and deliver individual Notes in definitive registered form in authorized denominations. Upon the exchange of the entire Stated Principal Amount of a Global Note for individual Notes, such Global Note shall be cancelled by the Indenture Trustee or its agent.  Except as provided in the preceding paragraphs, Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant to this Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depository for such Global Note, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar in writing.  The Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar shall deliver such Notes to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so registered.

2.7

(g)  
None of Funding LP, the Indenture Trustee, any agent of the Indenture Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Note Registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Each Partnership covenants and agrees that it will yield up possession of its assets forming part of the Collateral, or any part thereof, to the Indenture Trustee or any Receiver appointed by the Indenture Trustee or a court upon demand by the Indenture Trustee or such Receiver whenever the Indenture Trustee shall have a right of possession under this Indenture and agrees to put no obstacle in the way of the actions of the Indenture Trustee or the Receiver under this Indenture and not to interfere with the carrying out of the powers granted to the Indenture Trustee or any Receiver under this Indenture.
 
(b)  
Each Partnership hereby binds itself in the said event to consent to any petition or application presented to the court by the Indenture Trustee in order to give effect to the intent of this Indenture.  Each Partnership shall not, after receiving due notice from the Indenture Trustee or Receiver appointed by the Indenture Trustee that it has taken possession of its assets forming part of Collateral, or any part thereof, by virtue of this Indenture, continue in possession of such Collateral, unless with the express written consent and authority of the Indenture Trustee.  Each Partnership shall forthwith upon request of the Indenture Trustee or any such Receiver, by and through its officers and trustees, execute such documents and transfers as may be necessary to place the Indenture Trustee or Receiver in legal possession of the Collateral or any part thereof.

- 72 -

 
 
The assertion or use of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or use of any other available right or remedy.  Every right and remedy given by this Indenture or at law or in equity to the Indenture Trustee or to any of the Secured Parties may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed appropriate by the Indenture Trustee or such Secured Parties, as the case may be.

Delay or Omission Not Waiver
 
No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising any right, power or privilege of the Indenture Trustee or any of the Secured Parties under this Indenture shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  No waiver by the Indenture Trustee or by any of the Secured Parties shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the party or parties granting such waiver and is made otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and any such waiver shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any subsequent default.
 
11.17  
Disclaimer of Marshalling
 
Whenever the Security Interests shall have become enforceable in respect of any Collateral and the Indenture Trustee shall have determined or become bound to enforce the same, the Secured Parties agree not to invoke the doctrine of marshalling or any other equitable principle for the purpose of requiring the Indenture Trustee to realize or to have realized on any particular asset forming part of such Collateral.

Indenture Trustee Not Required to Possess Evidence of Secured Obligations
 
All rights of action under this Indenture may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or other instruments representing Secured Obligations or the production thereof at any trial or other proceedings relative thereto.  Any such proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee may be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust.  Any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, its agents and counsel as permitted under this Indenture, be for the benefit of the Secured Parties in respect of which such judgment has been recovered in the manner provided in this Indenture.

Indenture Trustee Appointed Attorney

Third party underwriters of such insurance shall meet the credit standard set out in Section 13.5(e).  The Servicer shall indemnify and hold Rental LP harmless against all claims, losses and expenses within the deductible amounts (including, for greater certainty, self insured amounts) under such insurance policies.

The Servicer shall deliver to Rental LP and the Indenture Trustee no later than December 31 of each calendar year an analysis and reconciliation of the independent actuarial analysis of automobile liability sponsored program and the reserves maintained by the General Partner of the Servicer for its obligations to self insure against up to the first $2,000,000 of claims relating to third-party liability and collisions.  Such analysis and reconciliation will be substantially in the form of Schedule B hereto, will be prepared by the firm of Towers Watson, or such other nationally recognized insurance actuarial consultants as may from time to time be approved by the Indenture Trustee and shall compare actual reserves to required reserves for auto liability based on loss and exposure data as at September 30 of the then current year.  Such analysis and reconciliation will be provided to the Servicer’s accountants in connection with the preparation of the Servicer’s annual audited financial statements, shall form part of such statements and shall be covered by such accounting firm’s audit opinion that the financial statements are fairly presented in all material respects.
 
(d)

Subject to the Transaction Documents including this Indenture, Rental LP hereby appoints each of the Servicer and the General Partner of the Servicer as Rental LP’s attorneys-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of and in the name of Rental LP or otherwise, from  time to time in their discretion or as required by this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents to take such actions on behalf of Rental LP as the they may deem necessary or advisable to comply with or effect the purposes of this Indenture.

- 85 -

 
 
(a)  
The Servicer has conducted and is conducting the Funding LP Business in compliance with all Applicable Laws of each jurisdiction in which any material portion the Funding LP Business is carried on and has all required licences, permits, registrations and qualifications under the laws of each such jurisdiction to carry on the Funding LP Business, except to the extent that failure to so conduct the Funding LP Business or to have such licences, permits, registrations or qualifications is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect in respect of the Servicer or Rental LP.
 
(b)  
The Servicer has provided to Rental LP (i) a list of all Franchisee names and locations and (ii) a list of all premises from which the Servicer carries on the Funding LP Business and the Servicer, or the General Partner of the Servicer, has a valid leasehold or fee interest in all such premises operated by the Servicer (or license in the case of premises at certain airports) and neither the Servicer, the lessor, sub-lessor or licensor of such premises, as the case may be, is in breach of any material provision of any agreement pursuant to which the Servicer occupies any such premises.
 
(c)  
The communications and computer systems of the Servicer, or the General Partner of the Servicer, are adequate for the operation of the Funding LP Business and the performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, and the use thereof by the Servicer, or the General Partner of the Servicer, does not infringe the rights of any other Person.
 
(d)

Such insurance is provided by third party underwriters whose claims paying ability or similar measure is rated not lower than (i) A (low) (or such lower rating as may be approved by the Rating Agencies) or the equivalent by as many of DBRS, S&P and Moody’s as rate it, and (ii) (x) with respect to its financial strength rating, A- by Best, if its Financial Size Category is X or higher from Best, or (y) with respect to its financial strength rating, A or higher by Best, if its Financial Size Category is IX or higher from Best; provided that the requirement to maintain such ratings shall not be applicable to GCAN Insurance Company as long as its financial strength rating is at least rated A from Best, and its Financial Size Category is VIII or higher from Best. The Servicer self insures against up to the first $2,000,000 of claims relating to third party liability and collisions, has made such self insurance available to Rental LP and has taken adequate reserves in respect of such self insurance.

Each of the Franchise License Agreements has been entered into in form and substance identical to one of the Master License Agreements.  Each of the Franchise Licence Agreements is in full force and effect, and neither the General Partner of the Servicer nor, to the best of the Servicer’s knowledge (after due enquiry), any of the Franchisees, is (or with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would be) in breach in any material respect of any condition, representation, warranty or covenant contained therein other than, in the case of breaches by the Franchisees, as has been disclosed to Indenture Trustee in writing.  Rental LP is a “Lender” as defined in each of the Franchise Vehicle Lease Agreements.
