                  Section 2.01 Form. The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes,
the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes, in each case together with the
Indenture Trustee's certificate of authentication, shall be in substantially the
forms set forth as Exhibits B, C, D and E to this Indenture with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are
required or permitted by this Indenture and may have such letters, numbers or
other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as
may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Notes,
as evidenced by their execution of the Notes. Any portion of the text of any
Note may be set forth on the reverse thereof, with an appropriate reference
thereto on the face of the Note.

         Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of
the Notes set forth in Exhibits B, C, D and E hereto are part of the terms of
this Indenture.

                  Section 2.02 Execution, Authentication and Delivery. The Notes
shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by an Authorized Officer of the Owner
Trustee, as provided in the Trust Agreement. The signature of any such
Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. Notes bearing the
manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at any time Authorized
Officers of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the
date of such Notes.

         The Indenture Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Order,
authenticate and deliver for original issue the following aggregate principal
amount of Notes: (i) $77,600,000 of Class A-1 Notes, (ii) $103,000,000 of Class
A-2 Notes, (iii) $112,000,000 of Class A-3 Notes, and (iv) $107,400,000 of Class

Class A-3 Notes and Class A-4 Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed such
respective amounts, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.05.

         Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes
shall be issuable as registered notes in the minimum denomination of $1,000 and
in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, except that one Note of each
Class may be issued in a different denomination.

         No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in the
forms of Notes attached as exhibits to this Indenture executed by the

                                       -8-

<PAGE>

Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories,
and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

                  Section 2.03 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of
definitive Notes, the Issuer may execute, and upon receipt of an Issuer Order
the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are
printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, of the
tenor of the definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such
variations not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture as the officers
executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such
Notes.

         If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause definitive Notes
to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive
Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon
surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer to be
maintained as provided in Section 3.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon
surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall
execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a like tenor and principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized
denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

                  Section 2.04 Registration; Registration of Transfer and
Exchange. The Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the "NOTE REGISTER") in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer
shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of
Notes. The Indenture Trustee shall be "NOTE REGISTRAR" for the purpose of
registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. Upon any
resignation of any Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor
or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note
Registrar.

         If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed by the Issuer
as Note Registrar, the Issuer will give the Indenture Trustee prompt written
notice of the appointment of such Note Registrar and of the location, and any
change in the location, of the Note Register, and the Indenture Trustee shall
have the right to inspect the Note Register at all reasonable times and to
obtain copies thereof, and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to rely
upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Note Registrar by an Executive
Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and
the principal amounts and number of such Notes.

         Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office
or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.02, the Issuer
shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Noteholder
shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Class in any
authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount.

         At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of
the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal
amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency.
Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute,
and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Noteholder shall

                                       -9-

<PAGE>

obtain from the Indenture Trustee, the Notes which the Noteholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive.

         All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes
shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered
upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

         Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the
Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, with such
signature guaranteed by a commercial bank or trust company located, or having a
correspondent located, in the city of New York or the city in which the
Corporate Trust Office is located, or by a member firm of a national securities
exchange, and such other documents as the Indenture Trustee may require.

         No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.03 or 9.06 not
involving any transfer.

         The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Issuer
shall not be required to make and the Note Registrar need not register transfers
or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption or of any Note for a period of 15
days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Note.

                  Section 2.05 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If
(i) the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Note and the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer
(unless an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) receive such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee and the Insurer harmless, or (ii) any mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, then, in the absence of notice to the
Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been
acquired by a Protected Purchaser, and if the requirements of Section 8-406 of
the UCC are met and subject to Section 8-405 of the UCC, the Issuer shall
execute and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class; provided, however, that if
any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have
become or within seven days shall be due and payable, or shall have been called
for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or upon the Redemption
Date without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note
or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the
preceding sentence, a Protected Purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which
such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the
Issuer, the Insurer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such
replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or
any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such
replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a
Protected Purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost
or expense incurred by the Issuer, the Insurer or the Indenture Trustee in
connection therewith.

         Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section, the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may require the payment by the Holder of such
Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may
be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the
fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar) connected
therewith.

         Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section in replacement
of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and
shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

         The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

                  Section 2.06 Persons Deemed Owner. Prior to due presentment
for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the
Insurer and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name
any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any,
on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be
overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Insurer, the Indenture Trustee nor any of
their respective agents shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  Section 2.07 Payment of Principal and Interest; Defaulted
Interest.

                  (a)      Each Class of Notes shall accrue interest during each
Interest Accrual Period at the related Interest Rate, and such interest shall be
payable on each Distribution Date as specified in such Notes, subject to Section
3.01 and the priority of payments set forth in Section 8.02(c). Interest accrued
on any Note but not paid on any Distribution Date will be due on the immediately
succeeding Distribution Date, together with, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, interest on such shortfall at the related Interest Rate.
Interest on the Notes shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months, except for the Class A-1 Notes, which shall be calculated
on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the related
Interest Accrual Period. Any installment of interest or principal, if any,
payable on any Note which is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer
on the applicable Distribution Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name
such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date,
by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid to such Person's address as it
appears on the Note Register on such Record Date, except that, unless Definitive
Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.11, with respect to Notes
registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency
(initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment will be made by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee and except for the final installment of principal payable with respect
to such Note on a Distribution Date, a Redemption Date or on the related

checks returned undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.03.

                  (b)      The principal of each Note shall be payable on each

                           (iii)    if an Event of Default shall have occurred
                  and be continuing, so long as an Insurer Default shall not
                  have occurred and be continuing, the date on which the Insurer
                  shall have declared the Notes to be immediately due and
                  payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02; or

                           (iv)     if an Event of Default shall have occurred
                  and be continuing and if an Insurer Default has occurred and
                  is continuing, the date on which Holders representing not less
                  than 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, acting
                  together as a single Class, have declared the Notes to be
                  immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section
                  5.02.

Noteholders of such Class entitled thereto. The Indenture Trustee shall notify

Record Date preceding the Distribution Date on which the Issuer expects that the
final installment of principal, of and interest on, such Note will be paid. Such

Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee
and shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer may at any

authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any
manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the
Indenture Trustee. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for
any Notes canceled as

                                      -12-

canceled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in accordance
with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless
the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to
it; provided that such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been
previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee.

                  Section 2.09 Book-Entry Notes. The Notes, upon original
issuance, will be issued in the form of a typewritten Note or Notes representing
the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to DTC, the initial Depository, by, or on
behalf of, the Issuer. Such Notes shall initially be registered on the Note
Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency,
and no Note Owner will receive a Definitive Note representing such Note Owner's
interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.11. Unless and until
definitive, fully registered Notes (the "DEFINITIVE NOTES") have been issued to
Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.11:

                           (i)      the provisions of this Section shall be in
                  full force and effect;

                           (ii)     the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee
                  shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all
                  purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal
                  of and interest on the Notes and the giving of instructions or
                  directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of the Notes, and
                  shall have no obligation to the Note Owners;

                           (iii)    to the extent that the provisions of this
                  Section conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture,
                  the provisions of this Section shall control;

                           (iv)     the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised
                  only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those
                  established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and
                  the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency participants.
                  Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, unless and until
                  Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.11, the
                  Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the
                  Clearing Agency participants and receive and transmit payments
                  of principal of and interest on the Notes to such Clearing
                  Agency participants; and

                           (v)      whenever this Indenture requires or permits
                  actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of
                  Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the
                  Outstanding Amount, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to
                  represent such percentage only to the extent that it has
                  received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or
                  Clearing Agency participants owning or representing,
                  respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial
                  interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to
                  the Indenture Trustee.

                  Section 2.10 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or
other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless
and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to
Section 2.11, the Indenture Trustee

                                      -13-

<PAGE>

shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to
Holders of the Notes to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligation to the
Note Owners.

                  Section 2.11 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Administrator
advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer
willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as described in the
Depository Agreement, and the Administrator or the Indenture Trustee is unable
to locate a qualified successor, or (ii) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default or a Servicer Default, Note Owners representing in the aggregate more
than 50% of the Outstanding Amount of all Classes of Notes advise the Indenture
Trustee through the Clearing Agency participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in
the best interests of the related Note Owners, then the Indenture Trustee shall
notify all Note Owners, through the Clearing Agency, of the availability of
Definitive Notes to Note Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
Indenture Trustee of the Note or Notes evidencing the Book Entry Notes by the
Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from the Clearing
Agency, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate
the Definitive Notes and deliver such Definitive Notes in accordance with the
instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or
the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such
instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on,
such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes of a Class, the
Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as
Noteholders hereunder.

         The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable if the Indenture Trustee or
the Administrator is unable to locate a qualified successor Clearing Agency. The
Definitive Notes shall be typewritten, printed, lithographed or engraved or
produced by any combination of these methods (with or without steel engraved
borders), all as determined by the officers executing such Notes, as evidenced
by their execution of such Notes.

                  Section 2.12 Release of Collateral. Subject to Section 11.01
and the terms of the Basic Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall release
Collateral from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer
Request accompanied by an Officer's Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and
Independent Certificates in accordance with Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(l) of the
TIA or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the
effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates.

                  Section 2.13 Tax Treatment. The Issuer has entered into this
Indenture, and the Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for federal,
state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, the Notes
will qualify as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Collateral. The
Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance
of its Note (and each Note Owner by its acceptance of an interest in the
applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes for federal, state and
local income, single business and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the
Issuer. Notwithstanding such treatment, the Issuer will withhold from amounts
payable to non-U.S. Note Holders pursuant to Section 3.03(a)(v).

                  Section 2.14 ERISA. Each purchaser or transferee of a Note
that is a Benefit Plan shall be deemed to have represented that the relevant
conditions for exemptive relief under Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption
("PTCE") 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 95-

                                      -14-

60 or PTCE 96-23 or other applicable exemption providing substantially similar
relief have been satisfied or has provided a written representation to the
Issuer satisfactory to the Issuer in lieu thereof.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                    COVENANTS

                  Section 3.01 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Issuer
will duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes
in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Without limiting
the foregoing, subject to Section 8.02(c), the Issuer will cause to be
distributed all amounts on deposit in the Note Distribution Account on a
Distribution Date deposited therein pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement
for the benefit of (i) the Class A-1 Notes, to the Class A-1 Noteholders, (ii)
the Class A-2 Notes, to the Class A-2 Noteholders, (iii) the Class A-3 Notes, to
the Class A-3 Noteholders, and (iv) the Class A-4 Notes, to the Class A-4
Noteholders. Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a
payment to any Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as
having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this
Indenture.

                  Section 3.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer will
or will cause the Administrator or the Indenture Trustee to maintain in The City
of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in
respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer hereby
initially appoints the Indenture Trustee to serve as its agent for the foregoing
purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of
the location, and of any change in the location, of any such office or agency.
If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or
shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof, such
surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust
Office, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to
receive all such surrenders, notices and demands.

                  Section 3.03 Money for Payments to be Held in Trust. As
provided in Section 8.02, all payments of amounts due and payable with respect
to any Notes that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Note
Distribution Account after required transfers thereto from the other Trust
Accounts shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Paying Agent (including
the Indenture Trustee when serving as a Paying Agent), and no amounts so
withdrawn from the Note Distribution Account for payments of Notes shall be paid
over to the Issuer except as provided in this Section.

         The Notes shall be non-recourse obligations of the Issuer and shall be
limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Collateral and the
Policy as provided in this Indenture and the Issuer shall not otherwise be
liable for payments on the Notes. No Person shall be personally liable for any
amounts payable under the Notes. If any other provision of this Indenture
conflicts or is deemed to conflict with the provisions of this paragraph, the
provisions of this paragraph shall control.

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

         On the Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date, the
Servicer shall cause funds to be withdrawn from the Collection Account and
deposited into the Payment Account pursuant to Section 4.02(e) of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, and on each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall
make the deposits to the Note Distribution Account required by Section 4.03 of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture
Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee
(and if the Indenture Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees),
subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

                           (i)      hold all sums held by it for the payment of
                  amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit
                  of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid
                  to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided
                  and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;

                           (ii)     give the Indenture Trustee notice of any
                  default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in
                  the making of any payment required to be made with respect to
                  the Notes;

                           (iii)    at any time during the continuance of any
                  such default, upon the written request of the Indenture
                  Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so
                  held in trust by such Paying Agent;

                           (iv)     immediately resign as Paying Agent and
                  forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in
                  trust for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases to
                  meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the
                  time of its appointment; and

                           (v)      comply with all requirements of the Code
                  with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it
                  on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed
                  thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting
                  requirements in connection therewith.

         The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in
trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon
the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and
upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying
Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

         Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money
held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of
any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years
after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust
and be paid to the Issuer upon receipt of an Issuer Request; and the Holder of
such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the
Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such
Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Indenture

                                      -16-

<PAGE>

Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment,
shall at the expense and direction of the Issuer cause to be published once, in
a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each
Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that
such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which
shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to or for the account of the
Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may also adopt and employ, at the expense of the
Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including,
but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have
been called but have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or
interest in monies due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the
records of the Indenture Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of
record for each such Holder).

                  Section 3.04 Existence. The Issuer will keep in full effect
its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the
State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or
becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the United States, in
which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and
franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and
preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, and the Collateral.

                  Section 3.05 Protection of Collateral. The Issuer intends the
security interest Granted pursuant to this Indenture in favor of the Indenture
Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders to be prior to all other liens in respect
of the Collateral, and the Issuer shall take all actions necessary to obtain and
maintain, for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders,
a first lien on and a first priority, perfected security interest in the
Collateral. The Issuer will from time to time execute or authorize, as
applicable, and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such
financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance
and other instruments, all as prepared by the Servicer and delivered to the
Issuer, and will take such other action necessary or advisable to:

                           (i)      Grant more effectively all or any portion of
                  the Collateral;

                           (ii)     maintain or preserve the lien and security
                  interest (and the priority thereof) created by this Indenture
                  or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

                           (iii)    perfect, publish notice of or protect the
                  validity of any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture;

                           (iv)     enforce any of the Collateral;

                           (v)      preserve and defend title to the Collateral
                  and the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in
                  such Collateral against the claims of all persons and parties;
                  or

                           (vi)     pay all taxes or assessments levied or
                  assessed upon the Collateral when due.

                                      -17-

The Issuer hereby designates the Indenture Trustee its agent and
attorney-in-fact to execute all financing statements, continuation statements or
other instruments required to be executed pursuant to this Section and the
Indenture Trustee shall execute all financing statements, continuation
statements or other instruments required to be executed pursuant to this section
upon written notice and instructions from the Issuer.

                  Section 3.06 Opinions as to Contracts.

                  (a)      Promptly after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, in the opinion of such counsel, either
(i) all financing statements and continuation statements have been authorized
and filed that are necessary to perfect the Indenture Trustee's first priority
perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject to the rights of the
Insurer under the Insurance Agreement) for the benefit of the Noteholders, and
reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel
in which such details are given, or (ii) no such action shall be necessary to
perfect such security interest.

                  (b)      Within 90 days after the beginning of each calendar
year beginning with the first calendar year beginning more than three months
after the Closing Date, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee and
the Insurer an Opinion of Counsel, dated as of a date during such 90-day period,
to the effect that, in the opinion of such counsel, either (i) all financing
statements and continuation statements have been executed and filed that are
necessary to continue the Indenture Trustee's first priority perfected security
interest in the Collateral (subject to the rights of the Insurer under the
Insurance Agreement) for the benefit of the Noteholders, and reciting the
details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such
details are given, or (ii) no such action shall be necessary to perfect such
security interest.

                  Section 3.07 Performance of Obligations; Servicing of
Contracts.

                  (a)      The Issuer will not take any action and will use its
best efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release
any Person from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any
instrument or agreement included in the Collateral or that would result in the
amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair
the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as
expressly provided in the Basic Documents or such other instrument or agreement.

                  (b)      The Issuer may contract with or otherwise obtain the
assistance of other Persons (including, without limitation, the Administrator
under the Administration Agreement) to assist it in performing its duties and
obligations under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person
identified to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer in an Officer's Certificate
shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall
not be responsible for the action or inaction of the Servicer or the
Administrator. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer and the
Administrator to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this
Indenture.

                  (c)      The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of
its obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the other Basic
Documents and in the instruments and

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

agreements included in the Collateral, including but not limited to filing or
causing to be filed all UCC financing statements and continuation statements
required to be filed by the terms of this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing
Agreement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and
therein. Except as otherwise expressly provided therein, the Issuer shall not
waive, amend, modify, supplement or terminate any Basic Document or any
provision thereof without the consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer
(unless an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) and the
Holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

                  (d)      If the Issuer shall have actual knowledge of the
occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Indenture
Trustee, the Insurer and each Rating Agency thereof, and shall specify in such
notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking with respect of such default. If
a Servicer Default shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to perform any
of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect
to the Contracts, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to
remedy such failure.

                  (e)      Upon the termination or resignation of the Servicer,
the Insurer shall appoint a successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer"),
unless the Insurer is not entitled to appoint a Successor Servicer by operation
of Section 9.08 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, which Successor Servicer
shall succeed to substantially all of the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities of the Servicer. If the Insurer fails or is not entitled to appoint
a Successor Servicer as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Backup
Servicer, if any, shall become the Successor Servicer pursuant to the terms of
the Backup Servicing Agreement. In such case, the Backup Servicer shall assume
those servicing obligations and duties of the Servicer set forth in the Backup
Servicing Agreement. If (a) the Backup Servicer on the date of its appointment
as Successor Servicer or at any time following such appointment fails or is
legally unable to perform its duties as set forth in the Backup Servicing
Agreement or has previously resigned or otherwise been terminated as Backup
Servicer or (b) any other Person designated Successor Servicer in accordance
herewith, fails or is legally unable to perform its duties as Successor Servicer
following its appointment as Successor Servicer, then the Insurer may appoint
or, if the Insurer is not entitled to appoint a Successor Servicer by operation
of Section 9.08 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee may
appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established financial institution, having a net worth of not less than
$50,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of automotive
retail installment sales contracts, as the Successor Servicer. Until such time
as the Person so appointed becomes obligated to begin acting as Successor
Servicer, the then current Servicer will continue to perform all servicing
functions under the Sale and Servicing Agreement as Servicer or, if the then
current Servicer was terminated or is legally unable to continue acting in such
capacity, the Indenture Trustee shall act as Successor Servicer. In case the
Indenture Trustee shall become the Successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee
shall be entitled to appoint as Servicer one of its Affiliates, provided that it
shall not be liable for the actions and omissions of any such Affiliate in such
capacity as Successor Servicer appointed with due care. The Indenture Trustee
and such Successor Servicer shall take such action, consistent with this
Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

                  (f)      Upon any termination of the Servicer's rights and
powers pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly
notify the Indenture Trustee and the

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

Insurer. As soon as a Successor Servicer is appointed, the Issuer shall notify
the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer of such appointment, specifying in such
notice the name and address of such Successor Servicer.

                  (g)      The Issuer agrees that it will not waive timely
performance or observance by the Servicer or the Seller of their respective
duties under the Basic Documents: (i) without the prior consent of the Insurer
(unless an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing) or (ii) if the
effect thereof would adversely affect the Holders of the Notes.

                  Section 3.08 Negative Covenants. Until the Termination Date,
the Issuer shall not:

                           (i)      except as expressly permitted by the Basic
                  Documents, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of
                  any of the properties or assets of the Issuer, including those
                  included in the Collateral, unless directed to do so by the
                  Indenture Trustee with the prior written consent of the
                  Insurer;

                           (ii)     claim any credit on, or make any deduction
                  from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the

Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders may rely; provided such representations
and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of this Indenture, but
shall survive the Grant of the Collateral to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Indenture:

                  (a)      This Indenture creates a valid and continuing
security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor
of the Indenture Trustee, which security interest is prior to all other liens,
and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer.

                  (b)      Onyx has certified to the Issuer that it has taken
all steps necessary to perfect the Issuer's security interest against the
Obligors in the property securing the Contracts.

                  (c)      The Contracts constitute "tangible chattel paper"
within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

                                      -24-

<PAGE>

                  (d)      The Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to
the Collateral free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

                  (e)      The Issuer has caused or will have caused, within ten
days, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing
office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect
the security interest Granted in the Collateral to the Indenture Trustee
hereunder.

                  (f)      Other than the security interest Granted to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Granting Clause of this Indenture, the Issuer
has not Granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the
Collateral. The Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any
financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral
covering the Collateral other than any financing statement (i) relating to the
security interest Granted to the Indenture Trustee hereunder or (ii) that has
been, or will be within five days of the Closing Date, terminated. The Issuer is
not aware of any judgments or tax filings against the Issuer.

                  (g)      The Issuer has authorized Onyx, in its capacity as
Custodian under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to maintain possession of all
original copies of the Contracts that constitute or evidence the Collateral and
Onyx has certified to the Issuer that the Contracts that constitute or evidence
the Collateral do not have any marks or notations indicating that they have been
pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Indenture
Trustee. All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Issuer in
favor of the Indenture Trustee in connection herewith describing the Collateral
contain a statement to the following effect: "A purchase of or security interest
in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights
of the Indenture Trustee."

The Indenture Trustee hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall not waive any
of the foregoing representations or warranties.

                           EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES

                  Section 5.01 Events of Default. "EVENT OF DEFAULT," wherever
used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such
Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected
by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or
any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

                  (a)      the delivery to the Insurer of a claim for payment
under the Policy;

                  (b)      default in the payment of any interest on any Note
when the same becomes due and payable, and such default shall continue for a
period of five days;

                  (c)      default in the payment of any principal due and
payable on a Class of Notes on the Note Final Scheduled Distribution Date for
such Class of Notes;

                  (d)      (i) default in the observance or performance of any
covenant or agreement of the Issuer made in this Indenture (other than a
covenant or agreement, a default in the observance or performance of which is
elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and such default shall
continue or not be cured for a period of 90 days after notice thereof shall have
been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture
Trustee or the Insurer or to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders
of at least 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, acting together as a
single Class or (ii) any representation or warranty made by the Issuer in this
Indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or in connection
herewith having been incorrect in a material respect as of the time made, and
such breach not having been cured within 30 days after notice thereof is given
to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer, or to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Amount of
the Notes acting together as a single Class;

                  (e)      the filing of a decree or order for relief by a court
having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the Issuer or any substantial
part of the Collateral in an involuntary case under any applicable federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or

                                      -27-

hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian,
trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or for any substantial
part of the Collateral, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the
Issuer's affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect
for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

                  (f)      the commencement by the Issuer of a voluntary case
under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar
law now or hereafter in effect, or the consent by the Issuer to the entry of an
order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or the consent by
the Issuer to the appointment or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator,
assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or
for any substantial part of the Collateral, or the making by the Issuer of any
general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure by the Issuer
generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of action by
the Issuer in furtherance of any of the foregoing; provided, however that so
long as no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, neither the
Indenture Trustee nor the Noteholders may declare an Indenture Event of Default
under the Indenture. So long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and
be continuing, an Indenture Event of Default shall occur only upon delivery by
the Insurer to the Indenture Trustee of notice of the occurrence of an Indenture
Event of Default. The failure to pay principal on a Class of Notes shall not
result in the occurrence of an Indenture Event of Default until the Note Final
Scheduled Distribution Date for such Class of Notes.

         The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer,
within five days after obtaining knowledge of the occurrence thereof, written
notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of any event which with the
giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default, its
status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect
thereto.

                  Section 5.02 Rights Upon Event of Default.

                  (a)      So long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then
the Insurer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to declare by written
notice to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency that the
Notes become immediately due and payable, and upon any such declaration the
unpaid principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, shall become immediately due and payable. The Indenture Trustee will
have no discretion with respect to the acceleration of the Notes under the
foregoing circumstances. In the event of any such acceleration of the Notes, the
Indenture Trustee shall continue to make claims under the Policy with respect to
the Notes.

                  (b)      If an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Indenture Trustee shall, if so requested in writing by Holders representing at
least 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes, acting together
as a single Class, upon prior written notice to each Rating Agency, declare that
all the Notes become immediately due and payable, and upon any such declaration
the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable.

<PAGE>

                  (c)      Following any Event of Default, the Insurer may elect
to pay all or any portion of the outstanding amount of the Notes, plus accrued
interest thereon to the date of payment.

                  Section 5.03 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for
Enforcement by Indenture Trustee.

                  (a)      The Issuer covenants that, if the Notes are
accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer will,
upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the
benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on
such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal,
and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally
enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the applicable Interest
Rate and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover
the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses and disbursements of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

                  (b)      If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall (i) if no Insurer Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, at the direction of the Insurer, or (ii) if an
Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the direction of
Holders representing at least 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes,
acting together as a single Class, as more particularly provided in Section
5.04, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the Noteholders, by such
appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effective to
protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any
covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable
right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

                  (c)      In case there shall be pending, relative to the
Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an
ownership interest in the Collateral, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United
States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or
reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been
appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other
obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings
relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or
property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee,
irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable
as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether
the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of
this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
Proceedings or otherwise:

                           (i)      to file and prove a claim or claims for the
                  whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in
                  respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or
                  documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
                  the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for
                  reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each
                  predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents,
                  attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses
                  and liabilities incurred by the Indenture Trustee and each
                  predecessor Indenture

                  Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of
                  the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

                           (ii)     unless prohibited by applicable law and
                  regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes in any
                  election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing
                  similar functions in any such Proceedings;

                           (iii)    to collect and receive any monies or other
                  property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to
                  distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of
                  the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf;
                  and

                           (iv)     to file such proofs of claim and other
                  papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order
                  to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of
                  Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
                  Issuer, its creditors and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in
any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make
payments to the Indenture Trustee, and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee
shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to
the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable
compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and
their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and
liabilities incurred by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture
Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

                  (d)      Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize
the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt
on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to
authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any
Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election
of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

                  (e)      All rights of action and of asserting claims under
this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture
Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in
any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or
Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name
as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the
payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture
Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and
attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

                  (f)      In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee
(including any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this
Indenture), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the
Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any
such Proceedings.

the direction of the Insurer, or (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall (subject to Section 5.04(b) below
and Section 5.05), if an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
at the direction of Holders representing at least 66 2/3% of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes, acting together as a single Class, take one or more of the
following actions as so directed:

                           (i)      institute Proceedings in its own name and as

                  enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee on
                  behalf of the Noteholders under this Indenture or the Notes;

                           (iv)     sell or cause the Servicer to otherwise
                  liquidate the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights or

                  called and conducted in any manner permitted by law and
                  deliver the proceeds of such sale or liquidation to the
                  Indenture Trustee for distribution in accordance with the

                  (b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing,

                           (i)      in the event that the Indenture Trustee is
                  acting at the direction of the Insurer, so long as an Insurer
                  Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, if an Event
                  of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer
                  shall not have the right to cause the Indenture Trustee or the
                  Servicer to, and neither the Indenture Trustee nor the
                  Servicer shall, liquidate the Collateral in whole or in part
                  if the proceeds of such sale or liquidation would not be
                  sufficient to pay all outstanding principal of and accrued
                  interest on the Notes; and

                           (ii)     in the event that the Indenture Trustee is
                  acting at the direction of Holders representing at least 66
                  2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, acting together
                  as a single Class, the Noteholders shall not have the right to
                  direct the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer to, and neither
                  the Indenture Trustee nor the Servicer shall, liquidate the
                  Collateral in whole or in part unless (A) an Indenture Event
                  of Default as specified in Section 5.01(b), (c), (e) or (f)
                  shall have occurred and be continuing and in any case the
                  Insurer shall have failed to make a payment required under the
                  Policy in accordance with its terms or (B) (1) an Indenture

                                      -31-

<PAGE>

                  Event of Default as specified in Section 5.01(a) or (d) shall
                  have occurred and be continuing, (2) the Insurer shall not
                  have failed to make a payment required under the Policy in
                  accordance with its terms and (3) the proceeds of such sale or
                  liquidation would be sufficient to pay all outstanding
                  principal of and accrued interest on the Notes and all amounts
                  owing to the Insurer pursuant to the terms of the Insurance
                  Agreement, and any unreimbursed Insurer Defense Costs. In the
                  event of a liquidation of the Collateral pursuant to clause
                  (B), the Policy will not be available to cover losses to
                  Noteholders resulting from such liquidation, and the Policy
                  shall be terminated and the Insurer shall have no further
                  obligation thereunder.

                  (c)      In determining the sufficiency or insufficiency of
the proceeds of a sale or liquidation of the Collateral to pay all amounts
required pursuant to Section 5.04(b)(i) or (ii) above, the Indenture Trustee
may, but need not, at the sole expense of the Issuer obtain and rely upon an
opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national
reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the
sufficiency of the Collateral for such purpose.

                  (d)      In the event that the Indenture Trustee is directed
to sell or to cause the Servicer to otherwise liquidate the Collateral or any
portion thereof or rights or interests therein pursuant to Section 5.04(a)(iv)
above, the Indenture Trustee shall, prior to any such public or private sales,
notify all Residual Interestholders of the proposed sale. The Indenture Trustee
shall provide the Residual Interestholders the right to match the highest
liquidation price offered at any such sale.

                  Section 5.05 Optional Preservation of the Collateral. If the
Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an
Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been
rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee shall, absent direction to the
contrary from the Insurer or the Noteholders pursuant to Section 5.04, maintain
possession of the Collateral.

                  Section 5.06 Priorities.

                  (a)      If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable
under Section 5.02 following an Indenture Event of Default and such declaration
and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, any money collected
by the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Collateral or the Notes pursuant to
this Article or otherwise and any money that may then be held or thereafter
received by the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Collateral or the Notes
(excluding any payments made under the Policy), shall be applied in the
following order and priority:

                           first, to the Servicer and, if applicable, the Backup
                  Servicer, to pay any unpaid Servicing Fees;

                           second, to pay any accrued and unpaid fees and
                  expenses of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the
                  Trust Agent without preference or priority of any kind;

                           third, to the holders of Class A Notes, to pay
                  accrued interest on each Class of Class A Notes on a pro rata
                  basis based on the interest accrued (including, to the extent
                  permitted by applicable law, interest accrued on any interest
                  accrued but not timely paid) on each Class of Class A Notes at
                  the related Interest Rate for such Class;

                           fourth, to the holders of Class A Notes, to pay
                  principal on each Class of Class A Notes on a pro rata basis
                  based on the Outstanding Amount of each Class of Class A
                  Notes, until the Outstanding Amount of each such Class of
                  Notes is reduced to zero;

                           fifth, to the Insurer, to pay amounts owing to the
                  Insurer under the Insurance Agreement (including the Premium)
                  and any unreimbursed Insurer Defense Costs;

                           sixth, to the Backup Servicer, to pay amounts owing
                  to the Backup Servicer under the Backup Servicing Agreement,
                  to the extent not previously paid; and

                           seventh, any excess amounts remaining after making
                  the distributions described in clauses first through fifth to
                  the Spread Account, to be applied in accordance with the
                  Insurance Agreement.

                  (b)      The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and
payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section. At least
15 days before such record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder and
the Indenture Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and
the amount to be paid.

                  Section 5.07 Limitation of Suits. No Holder of any Note shall
have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect
to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any
other remedy hereunder, unless:

                           (i)      such Holder has previously given written
                  notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of
                  Default;

                           (ii)     the Holders of not less than 25% of the
                  Outstanding Amount of the Notes, acting together as a single
                  Class, have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to
                  institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default
                  in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

                           (iii)    such Holder or Holders have offered to the
                  Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs,
                  expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such
                  request;

                           (iv)     the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its
                  receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has
                  failed to institute such Proceedings;

                                      -33-

<PAGE>

                           (v)      no direction inconsistent with such written
                  request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such
                  60-day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding
                  Amount of the Notes, acting together as a single Class; and

                           (vi)     an Insurer Default shall have occurred and
                  be continuing.

It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have
any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other
Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over
any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided.

         In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes,
each representing less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes,
the Indenture Trustee shall act at the request of the Holders of the Notes with
the greater Outstanding Amount of Notes; provided, however that if such groups
of Holders of Notes have the same Outstanding Amount of Notes, the Indenture
Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be
taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture and any such
action shall be binding on all parties.

                  Section 5.08 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive
Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture,
the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note
on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this
Indenture (or, in the case of redemption of the Notes, on or after the
Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment,
and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder, but in
all cases subject to the priorities of Section 8.02(c) or Section 5.06(a), as
applicable.

                  Section 5.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the
Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding
to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the
Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or to such Noteholder, then and in every such
case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Noteholders shall,
subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and
respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and
remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though
no such Proceeding had been instituted.

                  Section 5.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer
or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,
and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment
of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

                                      -34-

<PAGE>

                  Section 5.11 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or
omission of the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or any Holder of any Note to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall
impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or
Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by
this Article Five or by law to the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or to the
Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer or by the Noteholders, as the
case may be.

                  Section 5.12 Control by Noteholders. The Holders of a majority
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes shall have the right to direct the time,
method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the
Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power
conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

                           (i)      such direction shall not be in conflict with
                  any rule of law or with this Indenture;

                           (ii)     any direction to the Indenture Trustee to
                  sell or liquidate the Collateral shall be subject to the terms
                  of Section 5.04; and

                           (iii)    the Indenture Trustee may take any other
                  action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not
                  inconsistent with such direction.

Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section, subject to
Section 6.01, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines,
in its sole discretion, might involve it in liability or might materially
adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

                  Section 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the declaration
of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02,
the Insurer or the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes, acting together as a single Class, with the
consent of the Insurer may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its
consequences. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee,
the Insurer and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to
any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

                  Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be
deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred,
for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent
thereto.

                  Section 5.14 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this
Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof
shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in
any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in
any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted
by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its
discretion assess

                                      -35-

<PAGE>

reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee,
(ii) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each
case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes or (iii) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the
payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due
dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

                  Section 5.15 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer
covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any
time insist upon, or plead or, in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at
any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of
this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby
expressly waives all benefit or advantages of any such law, and covenants that
it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to
the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such
power as though no such law had been enacted.

                  Section 5.16 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee's right to
seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be
affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or
with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any
rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired
by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or
by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the
Collateral or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property
collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section
5.06.

                  Section 5.17 Performance and Enforcement of Certain
Obligations.

                  (a)      Promptly following a request from the Indenture
Trustee to do so and at the Administrator's expense, the Issuer shall take all
such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the
performance and observance by the Seller and the Servicer as applicable, of each
of their obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and
Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise any
and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer
under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the extent and
in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of
notices of default on the part of the Seller or the Servicer thereunder and the
institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or
secure performance by the Seller or the Servicer of each of their obligations
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

                  (b)      If the Indenture Trustee is the Controlling Party and
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee
may, and at the direction (which direction shall be given in writing and may
include a facsimile) of the Holders of 66 1/2% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the
Issuer against the Seller or the Servicer under or in connection with the Sale
and Servicing Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to
compel or secure

                                      -36-

<PAGE>

performance or observance by the Seller or the Servicer of each of their
obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice,
direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

                  Section 6.01 Duties of Indenture Trustee.

                  (a)      If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have
actual knowledge, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture and with the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances
in the conduct of such person's own affairs; provided, however, that if the
Indenture Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section
3.07(e), the Indenture Trustee in performing such duties shall use the degree of
care and skill customarily exercised by a prudent institutional servicer with
respect to automobile retail installment sales contracts that it services for
itself or others.

                  (b)      Except during the continuance of an Event of Default
of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have actual
knowledge or written notice:

                           (i)      the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform
                  such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth
                  in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations
                  shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture
                  Trustee; and

                           (ii)     in the absence of bad faith on its part, the
                  Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of
                  the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
                  therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the
                  Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
                  Indenture; however, the Indenture Trustee shall examine the
                  certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
                  conform to the requirements of this Indenture and the other
                  Basic Documents to which the Indenture Trustee is a party;
                  provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be
                  responsible for the accuracy or content of any of the
                  aforementioned documents and the Indenture Trustee shall have
                  no obligation to verify, re-compute or recalculate any
                  numerical information provided to it pursuant to the Basic
                  Documents.

                  (c)      The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from
liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its
own willful misconduct, except that:

                           (i)      this paragraph does not limit the effect of
                  Section 6.01(b);

                           (ii)     the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable
                  for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible
                  Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was
                  negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

                                      -37-

<PAGE>

                           (iii)    the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable
                  with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good
                  faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant
                  to Section 5.12.

                  (d)      Every provision of this Indenture that in any way
relates to the Indenture Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of
this Section.

                  (e)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for
interest on any money received by it.

                  (f)      Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not
be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms
of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

                  (g)      No provision of this Indenture shall require the
Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe
that repayments of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or
liability is not reasonably assured to it.

                  (h)      Every provision of this Indenture relating to the
conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture
Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions
of the TIA.

                  (i)      The Indenture Trustee shall, and hereby agrees that
it will (i) perform all of the obligations and duties required of it under the
Sale and Servicing Agreement and (ii) hold the Policy in trust, and will hold
any proceeds of any claim on the Policy in trust solely for application as
provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

                  (j)      Except as otherwise required or permitted by the TIA,
nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to
engage in any business operations or any activities other than those set forth
in this Indenture. Specifically, the Indenture Trustee shall have no authority
to engage in any business operations, acquire any assets other than those
specifically included in the Collateral under this Indenture or otherwise vary
the assets held by the Trust. Similarly, the Indenture Trustee shall have no
discretionary duties other than performing those ministerial acts set forth
above necessary to accomplish the purpose of this Trust as set forth in this
Indenture.

                  (k)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable in its
individual capacity with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with this Indenture or at the direction
of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of Notes, acting together as a single
Class, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for
any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising or omitting to
exercise any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, under this
Indenture.

                  (l)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take
notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of
Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have
received written notice thereof. In the absence of receipt of such

                                      -38-

<PAGE>

notice, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no Default
or Event of Default.

                  (m)      Subject to the other provisions of this Indenture,
the Indenture Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing, or
depositing of this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any
financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or
to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to
any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (ii) to see to any
insurance, (iii) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or
other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with
respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the Collateral, or (iv) to
confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates delivered to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture believed by the Indenture Trustee
to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties.

                  (n)      Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special,
indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but
not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of
the likelihood of such loss or damage regardless of the form of action.

                  Section 6.02 Rights of Indenture Trustee.

                  (a)      Except as otherwise provided in the second succeeding
sentence, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in
acting upon or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, note,
direction, demand, election or other paper or document believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Indenture
Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee, subject to Section
6.01(b)(ii) upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions,
reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Indenture
Trustee that shall be specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they comply
as to form to the requirements of this Indenture.

                  (b)      Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from
acting, it may require an Officer's Certificate (with respect to factual
matters) or an Opinion of Counsel, as applicable. The Indenture Trustee shall
not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance
on the Officer's Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

                  (c)      The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts
or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee and the Indenture Trustee
shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any
such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed by the Indenture Trustee
with due care.

                  (d)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any
action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be
authorized or within its rights or powers; provided,

                                      -39-

<PAGE>

however, that the Indenture Trustee's conduct does not constitute willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

                  (e)      The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and
the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this
Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection
from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it
hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such
counsel.

                  (f)      The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to
exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Indenture or to
institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at
the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders, pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the
Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses
and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained
herein shall, however, relieve the Indenture Trustee of the obligation, during
the continuance of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the
Indenture Trustee shall have actual knowledge, to exercise such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree of care
and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

                  (g)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so
by a majority of Noteholders; provided, however, that if the payment within a
reasonable time to the Indenture Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities
likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the
opinion of the Indenture Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Indenture
Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the
Indenture Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or
liability as a condition to taking any such action.

                  (h)      The right of the Indenture Trustee to perform any
discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty,
and the Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith in the performance of such act.

                  Section 6.03 Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee. The
Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner
or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates
with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying
Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like
rights. However, the Indenture Trustee is required to comply with Sections 6.11
and 6.12.

                  Section 6.04 Indenture Trustee's Disclaimer. The Indenture
Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the
validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Collateral or the Notes, it shall
not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it
shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in
any

document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other
than the Indenture Trustee's certificate of authentication.

                  Section 6.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is
continuing and a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual
knowledge or has received written notice thereof, the Indenture Trustee shall
mail to each Noteholder and the Insurer notice of the Default within 90 days
after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or
interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the redemption of Notes),
the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of
its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is
in the interests of Noteholders.

                  Section 6.06 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Holders. The
Indenture Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such information as may be
required to enable such Holder to prepare its federal and state income tax
returns.

                  Section 6.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Issuer shall
cause the Administrator to pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services. The Indenture Trustee's compensation
shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust. The Issuer shall cause the Servicer to reimburse the Indenture Trustee
for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including
costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such
expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses and
disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel,
accountants and experts. The Issuer shall, or shall cause the Administrator to,
indemnify the Indenture Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration
of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Indenture Trustee
shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it
may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and
the Administrator shall not relieve the Issuer or the Administrator of its
obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall, or shall cause the Administrator to,
defend any such claim, and the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and
the Issuer shall, or shall cause the Administrator to, pay the fees and expenses
of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor the Administrator need reimburse any
expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the
Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own willful misconduct,
negligence or bad faith.

         The Issuer's obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this
Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and
the discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses
after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or (f) with
respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

                  Section 6.08 Replacement of Indenture Trustee. The Indenture
Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer, the Servicer and the
Insurer. The Issuer, may, with the consent of the Insurer, and, at the request
of the Insurer shall, remove the Indenture Trustee, unless an Insurer Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, if:

                           (i)      the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with
                  Section 6.11;

                           (ii)     a court having jurisdiction in the premises
                  in respect of the Indenture Trustee in an involuntary case or
                  proceeding under federal or state banking or bankruptcy laws,
                  as now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable
                  federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law,
                  shall have entered a decree or order granting relief or
                  appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian,
                  trustee, conservator, sequestrator (or similar official) for
                  the Indenture Trustee or for any substantial part of the
                  Indenture Trustee's property, or ordering the winding-up or
                  liquidation of the Indenture Trustee's affairs, provided any
                  such decree or order shall have continued unstayed and in
                  effect for a period of 30 consecutive days;

                           (iii)    the Indenture Trustee commences a voluntary
                  case under any federal or state banking or bankruptcy laws, as
                  now or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable federal
                  or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or
                  consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a
                  receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,
                  conservator, sequestrator or other similar official for the
                  Indenture Trustee or for any substantial part of the Indenture
                  Trustee's property, or makes any assignment for the benefit of
                  creditors or fails generally to pay its debts as such debts
                  become due or takes any corporate action in furtherance of any
                  of the foregoing; or

                           (iv)     the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes
                  incapable of acting.

         If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists
in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such
event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer
shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee acceptable to the Insurer.

         A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective,
and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties
of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The Issuer or the successor
Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The
retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as
Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee.

         If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 30 days
after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

         If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any
Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

<PAGE>

         Any resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of
a successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Section and payment of all fees and expenses owed to
the outgoing Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Section, the retiring Indenture Trustee shall be
entitled to payment or reimbursement of such amounts as such Person is entitled
pursuant to Section 6.07.

                  Section 6.09 Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger. If the
Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all
or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another
corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee
corporation without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee;
provided, that such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise
qualified and eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall (unless
the Indenture Trustee is JPMorgan Chase Bank) provide the Insurer and each
Rating Agency prompt notice of any such transaction.

         In case at the time such successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by
this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered,
any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such
Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force and effect of the certificate of the Indenture Trustee
pursuant to the Notes or this Indenture.

                  Section 6.10 Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate
Indenture Trustee.

                  (a)      Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any
jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, the
Indenture Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all
instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or
co-trustees, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, or separate trustee or separate
trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or
Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to
the Collateral, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture
Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee
hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor
Indenture Trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the
appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under
Section 6.08.

                  (b)      Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following
provisions and conditions:

                           (i)      all rights, powers, duties and obligations
                  conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be
                  conferred or imposed upon and exercised or

                                      -43-

<PAGE>

                  performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee
                  or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate
                  trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately
                  without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to
                  the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any
                  particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture
                  Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such
                  act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
                  obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or
                  any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be
                  exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or
                  co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture
                  Trustee;

                           (ii)     no trustee hereunder shall be personally
                  liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee
                  hereunder; and

                           (iii)    the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept
                  the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or
                  co-trustee.

                  (c)      Any notice, request or other writing given to the
Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then
separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them.
Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to
this Indenture and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and
co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with
the estates or property specified in its instrument of co-appointment, either
jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein,
subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every
provision relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with
the Indenture Trustee.

                  (d)      Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time
constitute the Indenture Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power
and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under
or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate
trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be
removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest
in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law,
without the appointment of a new or successor trustee. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Indenture, the appointment of any separate trustee or
co-trustee shall not relieve the Indenture Trustee of its obligations and duties
under this Indenture.

                  Section 6.11 Eligibility; Disqualification.

                  (a)      The Indenture Trustee shall have a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published
annual report of condition. The Indenture Trustee shall provide copies of such
reports to the Insurer upon request. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA
Section 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the
operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other
securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion
set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met.

                  (b)      If the long term debt rating of the Indenture Trustee
shall not be at least Baa3 from Moody's and BBB- from Standard & Poor's, the
Rating Agencies shall be given notice of such lower long-term debt rating.

                  Section 6.12 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer.
The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any
creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has
resigned or been removed shall be subject to Section 311(a) to the extent
indicated.

                  Section 6.13 Representations and Warranties of Indenture
Trustee. The Indenture Trustee hereby makes the following representations and
warranties on which the Issuer and Noteholders shall rely:

                  (a)      the Indenture Trustee is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its place of
incorporation; and

                  (b)      the Indenture Trustee has full power, authority and
legal right to execute, deliver, and perform this Indenture and shall have taken
all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it
of this Indenture.

Indenture Trustee is not the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the
Insurer in writing at such times as the Insurer may reasonably request a copy of

Noteholders.

form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of the Holders of
Notes contained in the most recent list furnished to the Indenture Trustee as
provided in Section 7.01 and the names and addresses of Holders of Notes
received by the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar. The

                  by the Issuer with the conditions and covenants of this
                  Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules
                  and regulations; and

                           (iii)    supply to the Indenture Trustee (and the

                      ACCOUNTS, DISBURSEMENTS AND RELEASES

                  Section 8.01 Collection of Money.

                  (a)      General. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the Indenture Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and shall
receive and collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any
fiscal agent or other intermediary, all money and other property payable to or

payment or performance under any agreement or instrument that is part of the
Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may take such action as may be appropriate to
enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution
of appropriate Proceedings. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any
right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture and any right
to proceed thereafter as provided in Article Five.

                  (b)      Claims Under Policy. The Notes will be insured by the
Policy pursuant to the terms set forth therein, notwithstanding any provisions
to the contrary contained in this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
All amounts received under the Policy shall be used solely for the payment to
the Servicer and, if applicable, the Backup Servicer, of the Servicing Fee, to
the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Trust Agent of fees due (which
amounts do not include expenses) and to Noteholders of principal and interest on
the Notes.

                  Section 8.02 Trust Accounts.

                  (a)      On or prior to the Closing Date, the Issuer shall
cause the Servicer to establish in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the

                  Section 8.04 Release of Collateral.

                  (a)      Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses
pursuant to Section 6.07, the Indenture Trustee may, and when required by the
provisions of this Indenture shall, execute instruments to release property from
the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Indenture Trustee's interest in the
same, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by
the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Article shall be bound to ascertain
the Indenture Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any
conditions precedent or see to the application of any monies.

                  (b)      The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as there
are no Notes Outstanding and all sums due the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
Section 6.07 have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Collateral

or any other Person entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Trust

                                      -48-

<PAGE>

as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee (and not at the expense of the Indenture
Trustee), stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps
required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to
the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not
materially and adversely impair the security for the Notes or the rights of the
Noteholders in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided,
however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an
opinion as to the fair value of the Collateral. Counsel rendering any such
opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and
validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture
Trustee in connection with any such action.

                  or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
                  questions arising under this Indenture or in any supplemental

                  of the appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with
                  respect to the Notes and to add to or change any of the
                  provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to
                  facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more
                  than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article Six;
                  or

                           (vii)    to modify, eliminate or add to the
                  provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be
                  necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under
                  the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter enacted
                  and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may he

         The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of
any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements
and stipulations that may be therein contained.

                  (b)      The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized
by an Issuer Order, may, also without the consent of any of the Holders of the
Notes but with the consent of the Insurer and upon satisfaction of the Rating
Agency Condition, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for

Noteholders. The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer

consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby:

                  (a)      change the date of payment of any installment of

created by this Indenture.

         The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not
any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such
determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether
theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture
Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

         It shall not be necessary for any act of Noteholders under this Section
to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it

indenture pursuant to this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the
Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a
notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental
indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of
any such supplemental indenture.

thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all
respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions
of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the
terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new notes so modified as to conform, in
the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such supplemental
indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and

                               REDEMPTION OF NOTES

                  Section 10.01 Redemption. In the event that the Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.01(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement purchases the
corpus of the Trust, the Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in
part, on the Distribution Date on which such repurchase occurs, for a purchase
price equal to the Redemption Price; provided, however, that the Issuer has
available funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price. The Seller, the Servicer
or the Issuer shall furnish the Insurer and each Rating Agency notice of such
redemption. If the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 10.01, the
Servicer or the Issuer shall furnish notice of such election to the Indenture
Trustee not later than 10 days prior to the Redemption Date and the Issuer shall
deposit with the Indenture Trustee in the Note Distribution Account the
Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed whereupon the Collateral shall be
released from the lien of this Indenture and all such Notes shall be due and
payable on the Redemption Date upon the furnishing of a notice complying with
Section 10.02 to each Holder of the Notes.

                  Section 10.02 Form of Redemption Notice. Notice of redemption
under Section 10.01 shall be given by the Indenture Trustee by first-class mail,
postage prepaid, mailed not less than five days prior to the applicable
Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes, as of the close of business on the
Record Date preceding the applicable Redemption Date, at such Holder's address
appearing in the Note Register. In addition, the Administrator shall notify the
Insurer and Rating Agencies upon the redemption of any Class of Notes, pursuant
to Section 1(a)(i)(AA) of the Administration Agreement.

         All notices of redemption shall state:

                           (i)      the Redemption Date;

                           (ii)     the Redemption Price; and

                  surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price (which shall
                  be the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as
                  provided in Section 3.02).

         Notice of redemption of the Notes shall be given by the Indenture
Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer. Failure to give notice of
redemption, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Note shall not impair or
affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note.

shall, following notice of redemption (if any) as required by Section 10.02, on
the Redemption Date become due and payable at the Redemption Price and (unless
the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) no interest
shall accrue on the Redemption Price for any period after the date to which
accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

                  value (within 90 days of such release) of the property or
                  securities proposed to be released and stating that in the
                  opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair
                  the security created by this Indenture in contravention of the
                  provisions hereof.

                           (iv)     Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish
                  to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer an Officer's
                  Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer
                  thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii) above, the
                  Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee and the
                  Insurer an Independent Certificate as to the same matters if
                  the fair value of the property or securities and of all other
                  property or securities released from the lien created by this
                  Indenture since the commencement of the then current fiscal
                  year, as set forth in the Officer's Certificate required by
                  clause (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of
                  the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such Officer's
                  Certificate need not be furnished in the case of any release
                  of property or securities if the fair value

                                      -54-

<PAGE>

                  thereof as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is
                  less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the then
                  Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

                  Section 11.02 Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture
Trustee. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or
covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all
such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such
Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

         Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may
be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion
of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or
opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or
Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon
a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of
the Servicer, the Seller or the Issuer, stating that the information with
respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Seller
or the Issuer, unless such officer or counsel knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to such matters are erroneous.

         Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

         Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer
shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application,
or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended
that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or
at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and
accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided
in Article VI.

                  Section 11.03 Acts of Noteholders.

                  (a)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given
or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person
or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly
required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied
therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of
the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments.

                                      -55-

<PAGE>

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 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, 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 in any manner that the Indenture
Trustee deems sufficient.

                  (c)      The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note
Register.

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

                  Section 11.04 Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee, Issuer,
Insurer and Rating Agencies.

                  (a)      Any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or
permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders is to be
made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

                           (i)      the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or
                  by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
                  if in writing, personally delivered, sent by facsimile
                  transmission and confirmed or mailed by overnight service, to
                  or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office;

                           (ii)     the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by
                  any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
                  if in writing, personally delivered, sent by facsimile
                  transmission and confirmed or mailed by overnight service, to
                  the Issuer addressed to: Onyx Acceptance Owner Trust 2003-D,
                  in care of Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association, 500
                  Stanton Christiana Road, OPS4/3rd Floor, Newark, Delaware
                  19713, Attn: Institutional Trust Services or at any other
                  address furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the
                  Issuer; or

                           (iii)    the Insurer by the Issuer or the Indenture
                  Trustee shall be sufficient for any purpose hereunder if in
                  writing, personally delivered, sent by facsimile transmission
                  and confirmed or mailed by overnight service, to the Insurer
                  addressed to: XL Capital Assurance Inc., 1221 Avenue of the
                  Americas, New York, New York 10020-1001, Attention:
                  Surveillance.

                  (b)      Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies
by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing,
personally delivered, sent by facsimile transmission and confirmed or mailed by
overnight service, to (i) in the case of Moody's, at the following address:
Moody's Investors Service, Inc., ABS Monitoring Department, 99 Church Street,
New York, New York 10007 and (ii) in the case of Standard & Poor's, at the
following address: Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, 55 Water Street (41st

                                      -56-

<PAGE>

Floor), New York, New York 10041, Attention: Asset Backed Surveillance
Department; or as to each of the foregoing, at such other address as shall be
designated by written notice to the other parties.

                  Section 11.05 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. Where this
Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such
event, at his address as it appears on 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,
neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed
to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein
provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by any 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 a waiver.

         In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical
to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be
given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving
such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to
be a sufficient giving of such notice.

         Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies,
failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations
created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or
Event of Default.

                  Section 11.06 Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the
contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note
providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any
Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the methods provided for in
this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer will furnish to the
Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee will
cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such
agreements.

                  Section 11.07 Conflict With Trust Indenture Act. If any
provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof
that is required to be included in this indenture by any of the provisions of
the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

         The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties on
any Person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless
expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,
whether or not physically contained herein.

<PAGE>

                  Section 11.08 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The
Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for
convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

                  Section 11.09 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and
agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its
successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the
Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and
agents.

                  Section 11.10 Severability. In case any provision in this
Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in
any way be affected or impaired thereby.

                  Section 11.11 Benefits of Indenture. The Insurer and its
successors and assigns shall be a third-party beneficiary to the provisions of
this Indenture, and shall be entitled to rely upon and directly to enforce such
provisions of this Indenture so long as no Insurer Default shall have occurred
and be continuing. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or
implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their
successors hereunder, and the Noteholders, and any other party secured
hereunder, and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the
Collateral, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
this Indenture. The Insurer may disclaim any of its rights and powers under this
Indenture, but not its duties and obligations under the Policy, upon delivery of
a written notice to the Indenture Trustee.

                  Section 11.12 Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on
which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any
other provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such
date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force
and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall
accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

                  Section 11.13 Governing Law. THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS,
RIGHTS, AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE DETERMINED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

                  Section 11.14 Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in
several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.

                  Section 11.15 Recording of Indenture. If this Indenture is
subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording
is to be effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel (which may be counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer) to the effect
that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or
any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy
granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

                  Section 11.16 Trust Obligation. The parties hereto, by
entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note (and each
Note Owner, by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note),
hereby covenant and agree that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly,
with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or
other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the
Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Trust Agent, in its individual
capacity, or the Seller or the Administrator, (ii) any owner of a beneficial
interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer,
director, employee or agent of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the
Trust Agent, in its individual capacity, or the Seller or the Administrator, any
holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee or the Trust Agent or of any successor or assign of such Persons, except
as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it being understood that the
Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Trust Agent have no such
obligations in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner,
owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable
law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or
failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of
this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer
hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits
of, the terms and provisions of Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust
Agreement.

                  Section 11.17 No Petition. The parties hereto, by entering
into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note or a beneficial
interest in a Note, hereby covenant and agree that they will not at any time
institute against the Seller or the Issuer, or join in any institution against
the Seller or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United
States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any
obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any of the other Basic
Documents.

                  Section 11.18 Inspection. The Issuer agrees that, on
reasonable prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Indenture
Trustee or of the Insurer, during the Issuer's normal business hours, to examine
all the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Issuer, to
make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by
independent certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuer's affairs,
finances and accounts with the Issuer's officers, employees and independent
certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may
be reasonably requested. The Indenture Trustee and the Insurer shall and shall
cause their respective representatives to hold in confidence all such
information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law (and all
reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to
the extent that the Indenture Trustee or the Insurer may reasonably determine
that such disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder.

                  Section 11.19 Limitation of Liability of Owner Trustee.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this instrument has
been countersigned by Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association, not in its
individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Owner Trustee of the Issuer,
and in no event shall Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association in its
individual capacity or any beneficial owner of the Issuer have any liability for
the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations of
the

                                      -59-

<PAGE>

Issuer hereunder, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets
of the Issuer. For all purposes of this Agreement, in the performance of any
duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be
subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of
Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, Section 2.07 of the Trust Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect.

                  Section 11.20 Certain Matters Regarding the Insurer. So long
as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer
shall have the right to exercise all rights, including voting rights, which the
Noteholders or Residual Interestholders are entitled to exercise pursuant to
this Indenture, without any consent of such Noteholders or Residual
Interestholders; provided, however, that without the consent of each Noteholder
or Residual Interestholder affected thereby, the Insurer shall not exercise such
rights to amend this Indenture in any manner that would (i) reduce the amount
of, or delay the timing of, collections of payments on the Contracts or
distributions which are required to be made on any Note or Residual Interest
Instrument, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Holders of any Notes or Residual Interest Instruments, or (iii) alter the rights
of any such Holder to consent to such amendment.

         Notwithstanding any provision in this Indenture to the contrary, in the
event an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer
shall not have the right to take any action under this Agreement or to control
or direct the actions of the Trust, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner
Trustee or the Trust Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, nor shall
the consent of the Insurer be required with respect to any action (or waiver of
a right to take action) to be taken by the Trust, the Seller, the Indenture
Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Trust Agent or the Holders of the Notes or the
Residual Interest Instruments pursuant to the terms of this Indenture; provided,
that the consent of the Insurer shall be required at all times with respect to
any amendment of this Indenture.

                                      -60-
