(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.

(tt)           Purchase Option.  No Lease provides a purchase option for any Transferred Container (subject to such Lease) to any Lessee which would result, when taken together with all rental payments previously made or required to be made under such Lease or any prior Lease with respect to such Transferred Container, in less than the Original Equipment Cost being realized on the disposition of the related Transferred Container;

Section 8.03.  CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.  ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE SELLER OR THE COMPANY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, MAY BE INSTITUTED IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE SELLER AND THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND, SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSES OF ENFORCING THIS AGREEMENT, THE SELLER AND THE COMPANY EACH HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING.  THE SELLER AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY APPOINT AND DESIGNATE CSC CORPORATION SERVICE COMPANY, HAVING AN ADDRESS AT 1180 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS, SUITE 210, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10036-8401, ITS TRUE AND LAWFUL ATTORNEY-IN-FACT AND DULY AUTHORIZED AGENT FOR THE LIMITED PURPOSE OF ACCEPTING SERVICE OF LEGAL PROCESS AND THE SELLER AND THE COMPANY EACH AGREE THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON SUCH PARTY SHALL CONSTITUTE PERSONAL SERVICE OF SUCH PROCESS ON SUCH PERSON.  THE SELLER AND THE COMPANY SHALL EACH MAINTAIN THE DESIGNATION AND APPOINTMENT OF SUCH AUTHORIZED AGENT UNTIL ALL AMOUNTS PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE INDENTURE SHALL HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL.  IF SUCH AGENT SHALL CEASE TO SO ACT, THE SELLER OR THE COMPANY, AS THE CASE MAY BE, SHALL IMMEDIATELY DESIGNATE AND APPOINT ANOTHER SUCH AGENT SATISFACTORY TO THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND SHALL PROMPTLY DELIVER TO THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE EVIDENCE IN WRITING OF SUCH OTHER AGENT’S ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH APPOINTMENT.
 
Section 8.04.  Judgment Currency.  Dollars shall be the currency of account in the case of all obligations under the Related Documents.  The payment obligations of the Company, the Seller, the Manager and the Indenture Trustee under the Related Documents shall not be discharged by an amount paid in a currency, or in a place other than that specified with respect to such obligations, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on prompt conversion to Dollars and transfer to the specified place of payment under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of Dollars, in such place, due under the governing Related Documents.  In the event that any payment, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, upon conversion and transfer does not result in payment of such amount of Dollars in the specified place of payment, the obligee of such payment shall have a separate cause of action against the party making the same for the additional amount necessary to yield the amount due and owing under such Related Documents.  If, for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court with respect to any obligation of a party under any of the Related Documents or any of the agreements contemplated thereby, it shall be necessary to convert to any other currency any amount in Dollars due thereunder and a change shall occur between the rate of exchange applied in making such conversion and the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment of such judgment, the respective judgment debtor agrees to pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary to insure that the amount paid on the date of payment is the amount in such other currency which, when converted into Dollars and transferred to New York, New York, in accordance with normal banking procedures will result in the amount then due under the respective Related Document in Dollars.  Any amount due from the respective judgment debtor shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sum due under or in respect of any Related Document.  In no event, however, shall the respective judgment debtor be required to pay a larger amount in such other currency, at the rate of exchange in effect on the date of payment than the amount of Dollars stated to be due under the respective Related Document, so that in any event the obligations of the respective judgment debtor under the Related Document will be effectively maintained as Dollar obligations.
