     statements therein not misleading; provided that no representation or
     warranty is made as to (A) information contained in or omitted from the
     Registration Statement or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity
     with written information furnished to the Registrants through the
     Representative by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for

<PAGE>

                                                                               4

         (viii) The Issuer is not in violation of the LLC Agreement or in
     default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement,
     covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan
     agreement or lease to which it is a party or by which it or its properties
     may be bound. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
     Transaction Documents and the incurrence of the obligations and
     consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated will not
     conflict with, or constitute a breach of or default under, the LLC
     Agreement or any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement or lease, to
     which it is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound, or any
     law, administrative regulation or court decree;

          (ix) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered
     by the Issuer;

          (x) The Securities have been duly authorized for issuance, offer and
     sale as contemplated by this Agreement and, when authenticated by the
     Indenture Trustee and issued and delivered against payment of the purchase
     price therefor, will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the

     thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar laws
     relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights or
     by general equitable principles;

          (xi) No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or
     qualification of or with any court or any regulatory authority or other
     governmental agency or body is required for the issuance, offer or sale of
     the Securities by the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
     or for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
     and the Transaction Documents except for the registration of the Securities
     under the Securities Act and such consents, approvals, authorizations,
     registrations or qualifications as may be required under the Exchange Act
     and applicable state securities laws in connection with the purchase and
     distribution of the Securities by the Underwriters and to the extent
     provided for in the Transaction Documents;

          (xii) There are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which
     the Issuer is a party or of which any property of the Issuer is the subject
     (other than any such proceedings involving the Issuer's property which
     would not have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined herein)) and, to the
     best of its knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated
     by governmental authorities or threatened by others;

          (xiii) The Issuer is not an "investment company" within the meaning of
     the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended;

          (xiv) As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of
     the Issuer contained in the Transaction Documents to which the Issuer is a
     party will be true and correct and are repeated herein as though fully set
     forth herein;

          (xv) On and immediately after the Closing Date, the Issuer (after
     giving effect to the issuance of the Securities and to the other
     transactions related thereto as described in the Prospectus) will be
     Solvent. As used in this paragraph, the term "Solvent" means,

<PAGE>

                                                                               5

     with respect to a particular date, that on such date (A) the present fair
     market value (or present fair saleable value) of the assets of the Issuer
     is not less than the total amount required to pay the probable liabilities
     of the Issuer on its total existing debts and liabilities (including
     contingent liabilities) as they become absolute and matured, (B) the Issuer
     is able to realize upon its assets and pay its debts and other liabilities,
     contingent obligations and commitments as they mature and become due in the
     normal course of business, (C) assuming the sale of the Securities as
     contemplated by this Agreement and the Prospectus, the Issuer is not
     incurring debts or liabilities beyond its ability to pay as such debts and
     liabilities mature and (D) the Issuer is not engaged in any business or
     transaction, and is not about to engage in any business or transaction, for
     which its property would constitute unreasonably small capital after giving
     due consideration to the prevailing practice in the industry in which the
     Issuer is engaged. In computing the amount of such contingent liabilities
     at any time, it is intended that such liabilities will be computed at the
     amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at
     such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become
     an actual or matured liability;

          (xvi) The financial statements of the Issuer and the Origination Trust
     (including the related notes) filed as part of the Registration Statement
     or included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus present fairly
     the financial condition and results of operations of the entities purported
     to be shown thereby, at the dates and for the periods indicated, and have
     been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
     applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved;

          (xvii) Deloitte & Touche LLP, who have certified the financial
     statements of the Issuer and the Origination Trust included or incorporated
     by reference in the Prospectus, are independent public accountants as
     required by the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations during the
     periods covered by the financial statements contained or incorporated by
     reference in the Prospectus on which they reported; the selected financial
     data included in the Prospectus present fairly the information therein and
     have been compiled on a basis consistent with that of the audited
     financials included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus; and the
     other statistical information and data included or incorporated by
     reference in the Prospectus are, in all material respects, fairly
     presented; and

          (xviii) There are no contracts or other documents which are required
     to be described in the Prospectus or filed as exhibits to the Registration
     Statement by the Securities Act or by the Rules and Regulations which have
     not been described in the Prospectus or filed as exhibits to the
     Registration Statement or incorporated therein by reference as permitted by
     the Rules and Regulations.

     jurisdiction in which the ownership or lease of property or the conduct of
     its business requires such qualification, except where such lack of
     qualification or good standing would not have a material adverse effect on
     its condition (financial or other), business or results of operations or
     its ability to perform its obligations hereunder or under the Transaction
     Documents to which it is a party (a "VMS Material Adverse Effect") and (C)
     has the requisite power and authority to own or hold its properties and to
     conduct the business in which it is engaged as described in the Prospectus;

     may be bound which would have a VMS Material Adverse Effect. The execution
     and delivery of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and the
     incurrence of the obligations and consummation of the transactions herein
     and therein contemplated will not conflict with, or constitute a breach of
     or default under any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement or
     lease, to which VMS is a party or by which it or its properties may be
     bound, or any law, administrative regulation or court decree, with only

     such action result in any violation of its organizational documents;

          (v) VMS possesses adequate certificates, licenses, authorities or
     permits issued by appropriate governmental agencies or bodies necessary to
     conduct the business now operated by it, with only such exceptions as would

     Adverse Effect; and to the best of VMS's knowledge, no such proceedings are
     threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by
     others;

          (vii) As of the Closing Date, VMS's representations and warranties

     prospective material adverse change in its, or SPV's or the Origination
     Trust's, condition, financial or otherwise, or in their respective
     earnings, business affairs, management or business prospects, whether or
     not arising in the ordinary course of business;

     Origination Trust Assets allocated to the Lease SUBI Portfolio and the
     1999-1B Sold SUBI Portfolio, free and clear of Liens (except as permitted
     by the Transaction Documents), and has not assigned to any person any of
     its right, title or interest in any such Origination Trust Assets, or
     obtained the release of any such prior assignment other than as described
     in the Prospectus;

          (xii) If all "employee benefit plans" subject to Title IV of ERISA
     which VMS, or any entity which is a member of a "controlled group" of which
     VMS is also a member, maintains or sponsors, were terminated on the date
     hereof or on the Closing Date, there would be no material unfunded

          (z) An interest rate cap in the form filed as Exhibit 10.13 to the
Registration Statement and otherwise satisfying the requirements of a Series
2002-2 Required Lease Rate Cap shall have been duly executed and delivered by
JPMorgan Chase Bank to the Indenture Trustee.

          (aa) The Representative shall have received a certificate signed by an
officer of SPV, dated the Closing Date, substantially to the effect set forth in
Exhibit G hereto.

          (bb) The Representative shall have received a certificate signed by an
officer of the Issuer, dated the Closing Date, substantially to the effect set
forth in Exhibit H hereto.

          All opinions, letters, evidence and certificates mentioned above or
elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to be in compliance with the
provisions hereof only if they are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to counsel for the Underwriters.

          7. Termination. The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be
terminated by the Representative, in its absolute discretion, by notice given to
and received by the Issuer prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities
if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections 6(i), 6(r)(iv),
6(s)(iv), 6(t)(iii), 6(u)(iii), or 6(w)(iii) or paragraph 1 of Exhibit F shall
have occurred and be continuing.

          8. Defaulting Underwriters. (a) If, on the Closing Date, any
Underwriter defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement,
the Representative may make arrangements for the purchase of the Securities
which such defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase by other persons
satisfactory to the Issuer and the Representative, but if no such arrangements
are made within 36 hours after such default, the Issuer may make arrangements
for the purchase of the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter agreed but
failed to purchase by other persons satisfactory to the Representative, but if
no such arrangements are made within 72 hours after such default, this Agreement
shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters
or the Issuer, except that the Issuer will continue to be liable for the payment
of expenses to the extent set forth in Sections 9

<PAGE>


                                                                              18


and 13 and except that the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 shall not terminate
and shall remain in effect. As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriters"
includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise
requires, any party not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this
Section 8, purchases Securities which a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed
to purchase.

          (b) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of
any liability it may have to the Issuer or any non-defaulting Underwriter for
damages caused by its default. If other persons are obligated or agree to
purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, either the Representative
or the Issuer may postpone the Closing Date for up to seven full business days
in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Issuer or
counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Issuer agrees to
promptly prepare any amendment or supplement that effects any such changes.

          9. Reimbursement of Underwriters' Expenses. If (a) this Agreement
shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 7 or 8, (b) the Issuer shall fail
to tender the Securities for delivery to the Underwriters for any reason
permitted under this Agreement or (c) the Underwriters shall decline to purchase
the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement, VMS shall
reimburse the Underwriters for such out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel) as shall have been reasonably incurred by the
Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase and
resale of the Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8
by reason of the default of one or more of the Underwriters, VMS shall not be
obligated to reimburse any defaulting Underwriter on account of such expenses.

          10. Indemnification. (a) Each of the Issuer and VMS shall, jointly and
severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, their
respective officers, directors, shareholders, partners, trustees, employees,
representatives and agents, and each person, if any, who controls any
Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
(collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 10(a) and Section 11 as
an Underwriter), from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or
several, or any action in respect thereof (including, without limitation, any
loss, claim, damage, liability or action relating to purchases and sales of the
Securities), to which that Underwriter may become subject, whether commenced or
threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or
state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i)
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in
any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus
or in any amendment or supplement thereto a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall
reimburse each Underwriter promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by that Underwriter in connection with investigating or
defending or preparing to defend against or appearing as a third party witness
in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such
expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Issuer and VMS shall not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such

<PAGE>

                                                                              19

loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission
from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with any
Underwriters' Information; and provided, further, that with respect to any such
untrue statement in or omission from the Preliminary Prospectus the indemnity
agreement contained in this Section 10(a) shall not inure to the benefit of any
such Underwriter to the extent that the sale to the person asserting any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action was an initial resale by such
Underwriter and any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action of or with
respect to such Underwriter results from the fact that both (A) a copy of the
Prospectus was not sent or given to such person within the time required by the
Securities Act and (B) the untrue statement in or omission from the Preliminary
Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus unless, in either case, such failure
to deliver the Prospectus was a result of non-compliance by the Issuer with
Section 4(a) hereof.

          (b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Issuer, VMS and their respective affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, representatives and agents, and each person, if any, who
controls the Issuer or VMS within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or
several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Issuer or VMS may become
subject, whether commenced or threatened, under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act, any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or
otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out
of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Prospectus, the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with any Underwriters' Information furnished
by such Underwriter, and shall reimburse the Issuer and VMS, as the case may be,
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Issuer or VMS in
connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against or
appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.

          (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
10 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified
party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
indemnifying party pursuant to Section 10(a) or 10(b), notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided,
however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it
from any liability which it may have under this Section 10 except to the extent
that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive
rights or defenses) by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it
may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10. If any
such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall
notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled
to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other
similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice


<PAGE>

                                                                              20


          from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election
to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not
be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 10 for any legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however,
that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any
such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel for the
indemnified party will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1)
the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in
writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably
concluded (based upon advice of counsel to the indemnified party) that there may
be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are
different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3)
a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon advice of counsel to the
indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in
which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense
of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party
has not in fact employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after
receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the
reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the
expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the
indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or
related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to any local counsel) at any one time for all such indemnified party or
parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements
contained in Sections 10(a) and 10(b), shall use all reasonable efforts to
cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or
claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such
action or claim effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a
final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action or claim, the indemnifying
party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and
against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified
party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement
of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified
party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought
hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes (i) an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a
statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or
on behalf of any indemnified party.

          The obligations of the Issuer, VMS and the Underwriters in this
Section 10 and in Section 11 are in addition to any other liability that the
Issuer, VMS or the Underwriters, as the case may be, may otherwise have,
including in respect of any breaches of representations, warranties and
agreements made herein by any such party.

          11. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 10 is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section
10(a) or 10(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect
thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the Issuer and VMS on the one hand and the Underwriters on
the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided
by clause (i) above is


<PAGE>

                                                                              21


not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the
relative fault of the Issuer and VMS on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer
and VMS on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to such
offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds
from the offering of the Securities purchased under this Agreement (before
deducting expenses) received by or on behalf of the Issuer on the one hand, and
the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters with respect to
the Securities purchased under this Agreement, on the other, bear to the total
gross proceeds from the sale of the Securities under this Agreement, in each
case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. 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 the Issuer or VMS or information
supplied by the Issuer or VMS on the one hand or to any Underwriters'
Information on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
untrue statement or omission. The Issuer, VMS and the Underwriters agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 11
were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were
treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation
that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein.
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss,
claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in
this Section 11 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 11, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such
action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11, no
Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with
respect to the Securities purchased by it under this Agreement exceeds the
amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable
to pay by reason of any 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute as provided in
this Section 11 are several in proportion to their respective purchase
obligations and not joint.

          12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, the Issuer, VMS,
PHH and their respective successors. This Agreement and the terms and provisions
hereof are for the sole benefit of only those persons, except as provided in
Sections 10 and 11 with respect to affiliates, officers, directors, employees,
representatives, agents and controlling persons of the Issuer, VMS and the
Underwriters. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to
give any person, other than the persons referred to in this Section 12, any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement
or any provision contained herein.

          13. Expenses. The Issuer agrees with the Underwriters to pay (a) the
costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of
the Securities and any taxes payable in that connection; (b) the costs incident
to the preparation, printing and filing


<PAGE>

                                                                              22


under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement and any amendments and
exhibits thereto and the costs of distributing the Registration Statement as

Document, all as provided in this Agreement; (c) the costs of reproducing and
distributing each of the Transaction Documents; (d) the costs incident to the
preparation, printing and delivery of the certificates evidencing the
Securities, including stamp duties and transfer taxes, if any, payable upon

the Issuer, SPV, Avis, PHH, the Origination Trust, VMS and independent
accountants; (f) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the
Underwriters; (g) the fees and expenses of qualifying the Securities under the
securities laws of the several jurisdictions and of preparing, printing and
distributing Blue Sky Memoranda (including related fees and expenses of counsel
for the Underwriters); (h) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the
Securities; (i) the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee and any paying
agent (including reasonable related fees and expenses of any counsel to such
parties); (j) all expenses and application fees incurred in connection with the
approval of the Securities for book-entry transfer by DTC; (k) the fees and
expenses incurred by the Issuer, VMS and PHH in connection with any "roadshow"
presentations to investors; and (l) all other costs and expenses incident to the
performance of the obligations of the Issuer, PHH and VMS under this Agreement
which are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Section 13; provided,
however, that except as provided in this Section 13 and Section 9, the
Underwriters shall pay their own costs and expenses.

          14. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution,
representations, warranties and agreements of the Issuer, VMS, PHH and the
Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Issuer,
VMS, Avis, PHH or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate
delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the
Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on
behalf of any of them or any of their respective affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, representatives, agents or controlling persons.

          15. Notices, etc. All statements, requests, notices and agreements

provided that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 10(c) shall also
be delivered or sent by mail to such Underwriter at its address set forth on the
signature page hereof. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements

hereunder against PHH, the Underwriters may, but shall be under no obligation

Person or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the
Underwriters to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments
from VMS or any such other Person or to exercise any such right of offset shall
not relieve PHH of any liability hereunder and shall not impair or affect the
rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law,
of the Underwriters against PHH.

          19. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed

hereto.

                      FORM OF OPINIONS OF WHITE & CASE LLP


          The Representative shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as
of the Closing Date, of White & Case LLP, special counsel to the Issuer, SPV,
Avis, PHH and the Origination Trust, in form and substance, and subject to such
qualifications and assumptions as are, satisfactory to the Representative and to
counsel for the Underwriters, addressed to the Underwriters and to the effect
that:

          (a)  The Registration Statement has become effective under the
Securities Act and the Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture
Act. The Prospectus was filed with the Commission as required by Rule 424 under
the Securities Act. To the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no
proceeding for that purpose is pending or threatened by the Commission;

          (b)  The Registration Statement, as of the Effective Date, and the
Prospectus, as of its date, and any further amendments or supplements thereto,
as of their respective dates, made by the Registrants prior to the Closing Date
(other than the financial statements and other financial and statistical data
contained therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion) appear on
their face to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements
of the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations; the Incorporated Documents
(other than the financial statements and other financial and statistical data
contained therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion), when they
were filed with the Commission appeared on their face to comply as to form in
all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and the Indenture conforms in all
material respects to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act and the
applicable rules and regulations thereunder;

          (c)  The Securities, the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents
conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the
Prospectus.

          (d)  The Securities are in the form contemplated by the Base Indenture
and the Indenture Supplement, and when duly executed by the Issuer and
authenticated by the Indenture Trustee in the manner provided in the Base
Indenture and the Indenture Supplement and issued and delivered against payment
of the purchase price therefor, will constitute valid and binding obligations of
the Issuer, enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their terms and
will be entitled to the benefits of the Base Indenture and the Indenture
Supplement.

          (e)  Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Issuer, VMS, PHH
Consumer Lease, SPV, Avis, PHH or the Origination Trust (each, a "Party") is a
party, and which by its terms provides it is to be governed by New York law,
will constitute the valid and binding agreement of such Party, enforceable
against such Party in accordance with its terms, except (i) as the
enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally
and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether the issue of
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in


<PAGE>

                                                                               2

equity or at law) and (ii) such counsel need not express an opinion as to the
enforceability of any rights to indemnification which are violative of the
public policy underlying any law, rule or regulation.

          (f) The statements in the Prospectus under the headings "Risk
Factors--Our Indirect Ownership of the Leases, the Vehicles and the Receivables
Could Result in Reduced Payments to You" and "--Insolvency or Bankruptcy of
Vehicle Management Services Could Result in Delayed or Reduced Payments to You,"
"Material Legal Aspects of the Origination Trust," "Material Legal Aspects of
the Leases and the Vehicles", "Certain Employee Benefit Plan Considerations",
"Structural Summary--Material Federal and Certain State Income Tax Consequences"
and "Material Federal and Certain State Income Tax Consequences--U.S. Federal
Income Tax Consequences" and in the fourth paragraph under the heading "Material
Federal and Certain State Income Tax Consequences --State Income Tax
Consequences", to the extent that they constitute summaries of matters of law,
documents or proceedings or legal conclusions relating to U.S. federal law, have
been prepared or reviewed by such counsel and are correct in all material
respects.

          (g)  To the knowledge of such counsel after due inquiry, there are no
contracts, indentures, mortgages, loan agreements, notes, leases or other
instruments to which the Issuer, SPV, VMS or the Origination Trust is a party
that would be required to be described in the Prospectus or filed as exhibits to
the Registration Statement by the Securities Act or by the Rules and Regulations
which have not been described or filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement
or incorporated therein by reference as permitted by the Rules and Regulations.

          (h)  None of the Parties is an "investment company" as such term is
defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

          (i)  The execution, delivery and performance by VMS, PHH and the
Issuer of the Underwriting Agreement, the issuance of the Securities to the
Underwriters and the offering of the Securities, and the execution, delivery and
performance by each of the Parties of each of the Transaction Documents to which
it is a party and the consummation by each of the Parties of the applicable
transactions provided for therein do not and will not (a) require any
authorization, consent, approval, license or other action by or in respect of,
or notice to or filing with, any federal or New York state governmental,
legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body, agency or official,
except for the filing of the applicable financing statements; or (b) contravene,
violate or constitute a default under any provision of any federal or New York
state law, rule or regulation or any order, writ, judgment or decree, of which
such counsel is aware after due inquiry, of any New York State or federal court
or governmental authority binding upon any such Party.

          (j)  It is not necessary to qualify the LLC Agreement or the
Origination Trust Documents under the Trust Indenture Act.

          (k)  The provisions of the Transfer Agreement are effective to create
a valid and enforceable ownership or security interest, as the case may be, in
the Lease SUBI and the Fleet Receivable SUBI and the other Transferred Assets
(as defined in the Transfer Agreement) in favor of the Issuer.

<PAGE>

                                                                               3


          (l) The provisions of the Asset Sale Agreement are effective to create
a valid and enforceable ownership or security interest, as the case may be, in
the Sold Assets (as defined therein). The provisions of the Additional Equipment
Assets Assignment Agreement are effective to create a valid and enforceable
ownership or security interest, as the case may be, in the Additional Equipment
Assets (as defined therein). The provisions of the Additional Equipment Assets
Sale Agreement are effective to create a valid and enforceable ownership or
security interest, as the case may be, in the Additional Equipment Assets sold
and assigned to SPV pursuant thereto (the "PHH Financial Assets").

          (m) The provisions of the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the
Receivables Assignments are effective to create a valid and enforceable
ownership or security interest, as the case may be, in the Transferred Fleet
Receivables (as defined therein) described therein.

          (n) The provisions of the Indenture and the Series 2002-2 Indenture
Supplement are effective to create a valid and enforceable security interest in
the Collateral and the Series 2002-2 Collateral and the Proceeds thereof in
favor of the Indenture Trustee.

          (o) Each of the financing statements naming VMS, PHH Consumer Lease,
SPV or the Issuer as debtor (the "Financing Statements") filed with the
Secretary of State of New York and Nassau County Clerk's office (the "Filing
Offices") were when filed in the appropriate form for filing under the Uniform
Commercial Code of the State of New York, as it was in effect on the dates of
such filings. The ownership or security interest, as the case may be, of the
respective secured parties in the collateral described in the Financing
Statements and the proceeds thereof constitutes a continuing perfected first
priority ownership or security interest, as the case may be, therein under the
Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York, as it is in effect on the date
hereof (the "New York UCC") and as it was in effect prior to July 1, 2001. No
further filing or other action is necessary to perfect and maintain the
perfection and priority of such ownership or security interest, as the case may
be, against third parties.

          (p) Section 9-301 of the New York UCC provides that the local law in
which a debtor is located governs perfection of a security interest in the
collateral described in the Financing Statements and that the local law in which
a debtor is located governs the effect of perfection or nonperfection and the
priority of a nonpossessory security interest in such collateral except to the
extent that such collateral consists of negotiable documents, goods,
instruments, money or tangible chattel paper. Section 9-301 of the New York UCC
also provides that the local law of the jurisdiction in which the collateral is
located governs the effect of the perfection or nonperfection and the priority
of a nonpossessory security interest in negotiable documents, goods,
instruments, money and tangible chattel paper.

          (q) VMS, SPV and the Issuer are located in the State of Delaware under
Section 9-307(e) of the New York UCC. PHH Consumer Lease is located in the State
of Maryland under Section 9-307(e) of the New York UCC. The filing of a
financing statement in the New York Filing Offices naming VMS, PHH Consumer
Lease, SPV or the Issuer, as debtor, and covering any of the collateral
described in the Financing Statements on or after July 1, 2001 would have no
effect under the New York UCC. There are no financing statements on file in the
New York Filing Offices naming VMS, PHH Consumer Lease, SPV or the Issuer as
debtor covering any of the collateral described in the Financing Statements
other than the Financing Statements.

                                                                               4

          (r)  The Lease SUBI Certificate is either an "instrument", a
"certificated security", "tangible chattel paper" or a "general intangible", as
such terms are defined in the New York UCC. Each of the Fleet Receivable SUBI
Certificates is either an "instrument," a "certificated security," a "general
intangible" or an "account," as such terms are defined in the New York UCC.

          (s)  With respect to the delivery of the SUBI Certificates to the
Issuer by the SPV pursuant to the Transfer Agreement:

                    (I) Assuming that (i) each of the SUBI Certificates is an
               "instrument" (as defined in the New York UCC), and have been
               delivered to, and are continually in the possession of the Issuer
               in the State of New York and (ii) if the Issuer is deemed to be a
               purchaser of the SUBI Certificates, the Issuer took possession of
               the SUBI Certificates in good faith and without knowledge that
               the purchase violates the rights of a secured party, the Issuer
               has a perfected ownership or security interest, as the case may
               be, in the SUBI Certificates, as determined in accordance with
               Article 9 of the New York UCC.

                    (II) Assuming that (i) each of the SUBI Certificates is a
               "certificated security" (as defined in the New York UCC), and
               have been delivered to, and are continually in the possession of
               the Issuer in the State of New York and (ii) the SUBI
               Certificates are registered in the name of the Issuer, the Issuer
               will have a perfected ownership or security interest, as the case
               may be, in the SUBI Certificates, as determined in accordance
               with Article 9 of the New York UCC.

                    (III) Assuming that the SUBI Certificates are "general
               intangibles", "chattel paper" or "accounts" (in the case of the
               Fleet Receivables) (as defined in the New York UCC), the
               perfection and priority of the ownership interest or security
               interest, as the case may be, in the SUBI Certificates received
               by the Issuer under the Transfer Agreement in favor of the Issuer
               is addressed in paragraph (o) of this opinion.

          (t)  With respect to the delivery of the Collateral to the Indenture
Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and the Series 2002-2 Indenture
Supplement:

                    (a) Assuming that the Collateral is comprised of an
               "instrument" (as defined in the New York UCC), and has been
               delivered to, and is continually in the possession of, the
               Indenture Trustee in the State of New York, the Indenture Trustee
               has a perfected security interest in such Collateral, as
               determined in accordance with Article 9 of the New York UCC.

                    (b) Assuming that (i) the Collateral is comprised of a
               "certificated security" (as defined in the New York UCC), and has
               been delivered to, and is continually in the possession of the
               Indenture Trustee in the State of New York and (ii) such
               Collateral is registered in the name of the Indenture Trustee or
               is endorsed to the Indenture Trustee or in blank by an effective
               endorsement, the Indenture Trustee has a perfected security
               interest in such Collateral, as

<PAGE>

                                                                               5

               determined in accordance with Article 9 of the New York UCC.

                    (c) Assuming that the Collateral is a "general intangible",
               "chattel paper" or an "account" (in the case of the Fleet
               Receivables) (as defined in the New York UCC), the perfection and
               priority of the security interest in such Collateral is addressed
               in another paragraph of this opinion.

                    (d) (i)(A) The security interest in any portion of the
               Collateral consisting of a Security Entitlement carried in a
               Series Account which is a "securities account" as defined in
               Section 8-501(a) of the New York UCC (each a "Securities
               Account") maintained by the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of
               the Series 2002-2 Investor Noteholders pursuant to and in
               accordance with the Indenture and the Series 2002-2 Indenture
               Supplement, will attach upon acquisition by the Issuer and the
               Indenture Trustee of rights in such Security Entitlement. Upon
               full compliance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture in
               respect of a Permitted Investment, the Indenture Trustee will
               acquire a Security Entitlement carried in the Securities Account
               in respect of such Permitted Investment and will become the
               Entitlement Holder (as defined in the New York UCC) of such
               Security Entitlement. Such security interest will be perfected
               upon execution and delivery of the Series 2002-2 Indenture
               Supplement by the parties thereto and acquisition by the
               Indenture Trustee of such Security Entitlement as described above
               and will remain perfected so long as the Base Indenture and the
               Series 2002-2 Indenture Supplement remain in effect and the
               conditions set forth in this clause (A) are satisfied and the
               Indenture Trustee remains the Entitlement Holder of such Security
               Entitlement as described above;

                    (B) such security interest in that portion of the Collateral
               consisting of a Securities Account, if any, will be perfected if
               and will remain perfected so long as the security interest of the
               Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2002-2 Investor
               Noteholders, in all Security Entitlements carried in such
               Securities Account is perfected by the means indicated in clause
               (A) above.

                    (ii) With respect to the security interest in any Collateral
               perfected as described in subparagraph (i) above, if such
               Collateral consists of a Securities Account or a Security
               Entitlement credited to a Securities Account and so long as such
               security interest therein is perfected in the manner specified in
               clauses (A) and (B) of subparagraph (i) above, as applicable, and
               if such security interest was created for value and without
               notice (within the meaning of Section 8-105 of the New York UCC)
               to the Indenture Trustee or the Series 2002-2 Investor
               Noteholders of any adverse claim (as defined in Section
               8-102(a)(1) of the New York UCC) (an "Adverse Claim") to such
               Securities Account or Security Entitlement in such Securities
               Account, such perfected security interest has priority over all
               other security interests theretofore or thereafter created under
               the New York UCC in such Securities Account or Security
               Entitlement (provided that (x) if the Indenture Trustee and
               another secured party both have control over such Securities
               Account and Security Entitlements, their interests will rank
               equally, except that any security interest granted to the
               Securities Intermediary in such


<PAGE>

                                                                               6

               Securities Account or Security Entitlement would have priority
               over the security interest therein of the Indenture Trustee
               unless otherwise agreed by the Securities Intermediary, and (y)
               such priority will be subject to Section 8-511 of the New York
               UCC, to the Bankruptcy Code and to liens or claims of the U.S. or
               otherwise given priority by operation of law, including New York
               or federal law).

          (u)  In the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition with respect
to VMS under the Bankruptcy Code, the transfer of Transferred Receivables and
the Receivables Property (each as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement)
from VMS to SPV would not be recharacterized by a court as a pledge to secure
borrowings but rather properly would be held as a valid sale or contribution, as
applicable, of all of VMS' right, title and interest in the Transferred Fleet
Receivables and, therefore, a court properly would hold that (i) the Transferred
Fleet Receivables and the proceeds thereof are not part of VMS' bankruptcy
estate under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) the automatic stay
under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code would not apply to the Transferred
Fleet Receivables or the proceeds thereof.

          (v)  In the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition with respect
to VMS under the Bankruptcy Code, the transfer of Leases, Vehicles, Existing
Interests and other Sold Assets (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement)
from VMS to SPV (the "VMS Transferred Assets") would not be recharacterized by a
court as a pledge to secure borrowings but rather properly would be held as a
valid sale or contribution, as applicable, of all of VMS' right, title and
interest in the VMS Transferred Assets and, therefore, a court properly would
hold that (i) the VMS Transferred Assets and the proceeds thereof are not part
of VMS' bankruptcy estate under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) the
automatic stay under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code would not apply to the
VMS Transferred Assets or the proceeds thereof.

          (w)  In the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition with respect
to PHH Consumer Lease under the Bankruptcy Code, the transfer of Consumer Leases
and other Sold Assets (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) from PHH
Consumer Lease to SPV (the "Consumer Lease Transferred Assets") would not be
recharacterized by a court as a pledge to secure borrowings but rather properly
would be held as a valid sale or contribution, as applicable, of all of PHH
Consumer Lease's right, title and interest in the Consumer Lease Transferred
Assets and, therefore, a court properly would hold that (i) the Consumer Lease
Transferred Assets and the proceeds thereof are not part of PHH Consumer
Leases's bankruptcy estate under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) the
automatic stay under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code would not apply to the
Consumer Lease Transferred Assets or the proceeds thereof.

          (x)  Although such counsel assumes no responsibility for the accuracy,
completeness or fairness of the Prospectus (except as provided in paragraphs (c)
and (f) above), nothing has come to the attention of such counsel to cause such
counsel to believe that the Registration Statement, as of the Effective Date,
contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus (including the
Incorporated Documents) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading (except for financial statements and other
financial or statistical data set forth in the Prospectus, as to which such

          (y)  In a case under the Bankruptcy Code in which PHH or any of its
Affiliates (other than the Issuer or SPV) was the debtor, subject to certain
facts, assumptions and qualifications specified therein, it would not be a
proper exercise by a court of its equitable discretion to disregard the separate
existence of the Origination Trust so as to order substantive consolidation
under the Bankruptcy Code of the assets and liabilities of the Origination Trust
with the bankruptcy estate of PHH or any of its Affiliates (other than the
Issuer or SPV).

     constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any
     term, covenant or condition contained in any material indenture, mortgage,
     deed of trust, loan agreement or other material agreement or instrument to
     which it is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its property

     the provisions thereof, including the issuance of the Securities to the
     Underwriters and the offering of the Securities, (i) conflicts with or
     results in any breach of any provision of the respective organizational
     documents of the Parties, (ii) results in a default (or gives rise to any
     right of termination, cancellation or acceleration) or results in the
     creation or imposition of any mortgage, lien, security interest, charge or
     encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Parties, under any of
     the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture,
     license, agreement, lease or other instrument or obligation known to me
     after due inquiry to which any of the Parties is a party or by which its

     Federal law or the law of the State of Maryland, statute, rule or
     regulation or any order, writ, injunction or decree of which such counsel
     is aware or any

                  FORM OF OPINIONS OF RICHARDS, LAYTON & FINGER


         The Representative shall have received the favorable opinion, dated as
of the Closing Time, of Richards, Layton & Finger, counsel to Wilmington Trust
Company, as the SUBI Trustee, and special Delaware counsel to the Issuer, VMS,
SPV and the Origination Trust, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Representative and to counsel for the Underwriters and addressed to the
Underwriters, to the effect that:

          1.   The Origination Trust has been duly formed and is validly
     existing in good standing as a statutory trust under the Delaware
     Statutory Trust Act, 12 Del. C. ss. 3801, et seq. (the "Act"), and has the
     power and authority under the Trust Agreement and the Act to conduct its
     business as described in the Prospectus and to execute, deliver and
     perform its obligations under the Servicing Agreement, to issue the SUBI
      Certificates and to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct
     its business as described in the Origination Trust Agreement.

          2.   The Origination Trust Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and
     binding agreement of the parties thereto, and is enforceable against such
     parties, in accordance with its terms.

          3.   The Servicing Agreement, the Custodian Agreement and the Lockbox
     Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
     Origination Trust.

          4.   Each of the SUBI Certificates have been duly authorized, executed
     and delivered by the Trust and are validly issued and entitled to the
     benefits of the Origination Trust Agreement.

          5.   Assuming that (i) separate and distinct records are maintained
     for each SUBI created pursuant to the Origination Trust Agreement, (ii) the
     assets associated with each SUBI are held and accounted for separately from
     the other assets of the Origination Trust, or any other SUBI, (iii) the
     notice of the limitation on liabilities of a series provided in Section
     3804(a) of the Act is continuously set forth in the Certificate of Trust
     and (iv) the Origination Trust Agreement continuously provides for those
     matters described in (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph 5, each SUBI
     shall be entitled to the benefits of the limitation on interseries
     liability set forth in Section 3804(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act.

          6.   The execution, delivery and performance by the Origination Trust
     of the Servicing Agreement, the Custodian Agreement and the Lockbox
     Agreement, the issuance by the Origination Trust of the SUBI Certificates
     and the consummation by the Origination Trust of the transactions
     contemplated thereby do not violate (i) any of the provisions of the
     Origination Trust Agreement, (ii) any applicable Delaware law, rule or
     regulation, or (iii) to our knowledge, without independent investigation,
      any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note lease or other
     instrument to which the

     Origination Trust is a party, by which it may be bound or to which its
     assets are subject.

          7.   Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the
     Origination Trust of the Servicing Agreement, the Custodian Agreement or
     the Lockbox Agreement, the issuance by the Origination Trust of the SUBI
     Certificates nor the consummation by the Origination Trust of the
     transactions contemplated thereby requires the consent or approval of, the
     withholding of objection on the part of, the giving of notice to, the
     filing, registration or qualification with, or the taking of any other
     acting in respect of, any governmental authority or agency of the State of
     Delaware, other than the filing of the Certificate of Trust with the
     Secretary of State.

          8.   Assuming that for federal income tax purposes the Origination
     Trust will not be classified as an association or a publicly traded
     partnership under Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
     amended, the Origination Trust will not be classified as an association or
     a publicly traded partnership for income tax purposes under the laws of the

     Agreement (the "Issuer Agreement"), the Issuer has all necessary limited
     liability company power and authority to conduct its business as described
     in the Prospectus and to execute and deliver, and to perform its

     delivery by the Issuer of the Underwriting Agreement and the Transaction
     Documents to which it is a party, and the performance by the Issuer of its
     obligations thereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary limited
     liability company action on the part of the Issuer.

          18.  The execution and delivery by VMS of the Underwriting Agreement
     and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the performance
     by VMS of its obligations thereunder, do not violate (i) any Delaware law,
     rule or regulation, or (ii) the VMS Agreement.

          19.  The execution and delivery by the SPV of the Transaction
     Documents to which it is a party, and the performance by the SPV of its
     obligations thereunder, do not violate (i) any Delaware law, rule or
     regulation, or (ii) the SPV Agreement.

          20.  The execution and delivery by the Issuer of the Underwriting
     Agreement and the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the
     performance by the Issuer of its obligations thereunder, do not violate (i)
     any Delaware law, rule or regulation, or (ii) the Issuer Agreement.

          21.  No authorization, consent, approval, order, filing or
     qualification of or with any Delaware court or any Delaware governmental or
     administrative body is required solely in connection with the execution and
     delivery by VMS of the Underwriting Agreement and the Transaction Documents

          23.  No authorization, consent, approval, order, filing or
     qualification of or with any Delaware court or any Delaware governmental or

<PAGE>

                                                                               4

     VMS, as sole economic member (the "SPV Member"), and is enforceable against
     the SPV Member, in accordance with its terms.

          25.  The Issuer Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding
     agreement of SPV, as the sole common member (the "Common Member"), and is
     enforceable against the Common Member, in accordance with its terms.

          26.  If properly presented to a Delaware court, a Delaware court
     applying Delaware law would conclude that (i) in order for a Person to file
     a voluntary bankruptcy petition on behalf of the SPV, the prior unanimous
     consent of the Managers (as defined in the SPV Agreement), including each
     of the Independent Managers (as defined in the SPV Agreement), as provided
     for in Section 4.4(b) of the SPV Agreement, is required and (ii) such
     provision, contained in Section 4.4(b) of the SPV Agreement, that requires
     the prior unanimous consent of the Managers (as defined in the SPV
     Agreement), including each of the Independent Managers (as defined in the
     SPV Agreement), in order for a Person to file a voluntary bankruptcy
     petition on behalf of the SPV, constitutes a legal, valid and binding
     agreement of the SPV Member, and is enforceable against the SPV Member, in
     accordance with its terms.

          27.  If properly presented to a Delaware court, a Delaware court
     applying Delaware law would conclude that (i) in order for a Person to file
     a voluntary bankruptcy petition on behalf of the Issuer, the prior
     unanimous consent of the Managers, including the Independent Manager, and
     the affirmative vote of Preferred Members holding Preferred Membership
     Interests of at least 66-2/3% of the aggregate stated liquidation
     preference of all Preferred Membership Interests then outstanding, voting
     as a single class, in person or by proxy at a special meeting called for
     the purpose, or by unanimous written consent of the Preferred Members
     without such meeting, as provided for in Section 3.4(b), Section 9.2(f) and
     Section 10.2(f) of the Issuer Agreement, is required and (ii) such
     provisions, contained in Section 3.4(b), Section 9.2(f) and Section 10.2(f)
     of the Issuer Agreement, that require the prior unanimous consent of the
     Managers, including the Independent Manager, and the affirmative vote of
     Preferred Members holding Preferred Membership Interests of at least
     66-2/3% of the aggregate stated liquidation preference of all Preferred
     Membership Interests then outstanding, voting as a single class, in person
     or by proxy at a special meeting called for the purpose, or by unanimous
     written consent of the Preferred Members without such meeting, in order for
     a Person to file a voluntary bankruptcy petition on behalf of the Issuer,
     constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of the Common Member, and is
     enforceable against the Common Member, in accordance with its terms.

          28.  Under the LLC Act and the SPV Agreement, the Bankruptcy (as
     defined in the SPV Agreement) or dissolution of the SPV Member will not, by
     itself, cause the SPV to be dissolved or its affairs to be wound up.

          29.  Under the LLC Act and the Issuer Agreement, the occurrence of an
     Insolvency Event with respect to, or dissolution of, the Common Member will
     not, by itself, cause the Issuer to be dissolved or its affairs to be wound
     up.

                                                                               5


          30.  While under the LLC Act, on application to a court of competent
     jurisdiction, a judgment creditor of the SPV Member may be able to charge
     the SPV Member's share of any profits and losses of the SPV and the SPV
     Member's right to receive distributions of the SPV's assets (the "SPV
     Member's Interest"), and the court may appoint a receiver of the share of
     distributions due or to become due to the SPV Member in respect of the SPV,
     the receiver shall have only the rights of the assigner of the SPV Member's
     Interest. Under the LLC Act, no creditor of the SPV Member shall have any
