                                    THE NOTES

         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 form set
forth in Exhibit A, 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 thereof. 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.

         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.

         Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of
the Notes set forth in Exhibit A 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 any of its Authorized Officers. 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 Issuer
Order authenticate and deliver Class A-1 Notes for original issue in an
aggregate principal amount of $374,106,000, Class A-2 Notes for original issue
in an aggregate principal amount of $305,000,000, Class A-3 Notes for original
issue in an aggregate principal amount of $523,000,000 and Class A-4 Notes for
original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $277,079,000. The aggregate
principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3
Notes and the Class A-4 Notes outstanding at any time may not exceed such
respective amounts except as provided in Section 2.05. The Notes shall be
issuable as registered Notes in the minimum denomination $1,000. Each Note shall
be dated the date of its authentication.

         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 included in Exhibit A,
executed by the Indenture Trustee by the manual or facsimile 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

                                    9
<PAGE>

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 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.


         (a)      The Note Registrar shall maintain a Note Register in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note Registrar
shall provide for the registration of Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes
as provided in this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially
appointed Note Registrar for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers and
exchanges of Notes as provided in this Indenture. In the event that, subsequent
to the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee notifies the Issuer that it is unable
to act as Note Registrar, the Issuer shall appoint another bank or trust
company, having an office or agency located in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, agreeing to act in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture applicable to it, and otherwise acceptable to the Indenture Trustee,
to act as successor Note Registrar under this Indenture.

         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.

         (b)      No transfer of any Class A-1 Note shall be made unless such
resale or transfer is made (i) pursuant to an effective Registration Statement
under the Securities Act, (ii) in a transaction (other than a transaction in
clause (iv) below) exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act and applicable state and foreign securities laws, (iii) to any Affiliate of
TMCC or (iv) to a Person who the transferor of such Class A-1 Note reasonably
believes is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A
under the Securities Act and that is aware that the resale or other transfer is
being made in reliance on Rule 144A or to an institutional "accredited investor"
as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act (an
"Institutional Accredited Investor"). In the event that a transfer is to be made
as described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, the prospective
transferee shall deliver or cause to be delivered an Opinion of Counsel in the
form and substance satisfactory to the Issuer to the effect that such transfer
may be made without registration under the Securities Act or any applicable
state or foreign securities laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made to
an

                                   10
<PAGE>

institutional accredited investor as described in clause (iv), the Indenture
Trustee shall require that the transferee execute a representation letter
acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuer certifying
to the Indenture Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which
representation shall not be an expense of the Indenture Trustee or the
Servicer. In the case of a transfer under either clause (ii) or clause (iv),
the Holder of a Class A-1 Note desiring to effect such transfer, shall and
does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the
Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state
and foreign securities laws. Neither the Servicer, the Issuer nor the
Indenture Trustee is under any obligation to register any Class A-1 Notes
under the Securities Act or any applicable state or foreign securities laws.
Prospective purchasers of the Class A-1 Notes are hereby notified that the
seller of any Class A-1 Notes may be relying on the exemption from the
registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act provided by Rule 144A under
the Act.

                  The Class A-1 Notes, this Indenture and related documents may
be amended or supplemented from time to time without the consent of any
Noteholder to modify restrictions on and procedures for resale and other
transfer of such Class A-1 Notes to reflect any change in applicable law or
regulation (or the interpretation thereof) or practices relating to the resale
or transfer of restricted securities generally.

         (c)      Upon the proper 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 in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or
more new Notes of the same Class in authorized denominations of a like aggregate
principal amount.

         (d)      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
obtain from the Indenture Trustee, the Notes which the Noteholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. Every Note presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the
Note Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing.

         (e)      No service charge shall be made for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Indenture Trustee may require payment of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.

         (f)      All Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Indenture Trustee.

         SECTION 2.05. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN NOTES. If (i) any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the

                                     11
<PAGE>

Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the
Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a
bona fide purchaser, 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. In connection with the issuance of any new Note under this
Section, the Issuer may require 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.

         If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in
lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such
original Note, the Issuer 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 bona
fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by
the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection 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 of the same Class 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 OWNERS. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any
agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee 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, and none of the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

         SECTION 2.07. PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.
         (a)      The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes
and the Class A-4 Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Period at the
Class A-1 Rate, the Class A-2 Rate, the Class A-3 Rate and the Class A-4 Rate,
respectively, and such interest shall be payable on each related Payment Date as
specified in such Notes, pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Section 3.01 hereof. Any installment of interest or principal
payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer
on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such
Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date. 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

                                    12
<PAGE>


nominee, except for the final installment of principal payable with respect
to such Note on a Payment Date or on the applicable Final Scheduled Payment
Date, which shall be payable as provided below. Such payment will be made by
check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person's address as it
appears on the Note Register on such Record Date or by wire transfer to the
account specified by the registered holder of any Note with a face amount of
at least $10,000,000. The funds represented by any such checks returned
undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.03.

         (b)      The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on
each Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement
and subject to the availability of funds therefor. All principal payments on
each Class of Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders of such Class
entitled thereto. In accordance with Section 10.01, the Indenture Trustee shall
notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on
the Record Date preceding the Payment Date on which the final installment of
principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed
or transmitted by facsimile not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such
final Payment Date, shall specify that such final installment will be payable
only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place
where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such
installment.

         (c)      In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the
Trust's payment (or allocations of income) to the Noteholders, such tax shall
reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Noteholders in accordance with
this Section. The Issuer will instruct the Indenture Trustee regarding the
imposition of such withholding tax and, upon receiving such instruction, the
Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts
otherwise distributable to the Noteholders sufficient funds for the payment of
any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not
prevent the Indenture Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate
proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending
the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with
respect to the Noteholders shall be treated as cash distributed to the
Noteholders at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the
appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is
payable with respect to any distribution (such as any distribution to a Non-U.S.
Person), the Indenture Trustee may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts
in accordance with this paragraph (c). In the event that any Noteholder wishes
to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Indenture Trustee shall
reasonably cooperate with the Noteholder in making such claim so long as the
Noteholder agrees to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any out-of-pocket
expenses incurred.

         SECTION 2.08. CANCELLATION. All Notes surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any 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 time deliver
to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously 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 provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.
All canceled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in
accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy


                                      13
<PAGE>

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. RELEASE OF COLLATERAL. Subject to Sections 10.01 and
11.01 and the terms of the Basic Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall release
property 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 TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(l) 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 2.10. BOOK-ENTRY NOTES. The Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3
Notes and the Class A-4 Notes, upon original issuance, will be issued in the
form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to
The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, or a custodian
therefor, by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Book-Entry Notes shall be
registered initially on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee
of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Note Owner thereof will receive a
definitive Note representing such Note Owner's interest in such Note, except as
provided in Section 2.12. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes
(the "Definitive Notes") have been issued to such Note Owners pursuant to
Section 2.12:

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

         (b)      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 Book-Entry Notes and the giving
of instructions or directions hereunder) as the authorized representative of
such Note Owners;

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

         (d)      the rights of such 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 Note Depository Agreement. Unless and until
Definitive Notes are issued in respect of the Book-Entry Note pursuant to
Section 2.12, the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among
the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal
of and interest on such Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants; and

         (e)      whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be
taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of the Class A-2 Notes,
the Class A-3 Notes or the Class A-4 Notes evidencing a specified percentage of
the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or of the Notes of any such Class, 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 of Book-Entry
Notes and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively,
such required percentage of the beneficial interest in such Notes and has
delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

                                      14
<PAGE>

         SECTION 2.11. 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 the Note Owners of Book-Entry
Notes pursuant to Section 2.12, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such
notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the
Book-Entry Notes to the Clearing Agency and shall be deemed to have been given
as of the date of delivery to the Clearing Agency.

         SECTION 2.12. DEFINITIVE NOTES. The Class A-1 Notes, upon original
issuance, will be issued as Definitive Notes. In the case of the Book-Entry
Notes, if (i) the Owner Trustee or the Administrator advises the Indenture
Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to
properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and
the Owner Trustee and the Administrator are unable to locate a qualified
successor (and if the Administrator has made such determination, the
Administrator has given written notice thereof to the Indenture Trustee), (ii)
the Seller or the Administrator or the Indenture Trustee at its option advises
each other such party in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default or a Servicer Default, owners of the Book-Entry Notes representing
beneficial interests aggregating at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Book-Entry Notes, advise the Indenture Trustee and the Clearing Agency in
writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency
or a successor thereto is no longer in the best interests of the Note Owners
acting together as a single Class, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all
Note Owners and the Indenture Trustee of the occurrence of such event and of the
availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners requesting the same. Upon
surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the
Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration
instructions, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate the 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, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee, Issuer
and Administrator shall not be liable for any inability to locate a qualified
successor Clearing Agency. From and after the date of issuance of Definitive
Notes, all notices to be given to Noteholders will be mailed thereto at their
addresses of record in the Note Register as of the relevant Record Date. Such
notices will be deemed to have been given as of the date of mailing.

         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 Trust Estate. The
Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance
of a 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.

         SECTION 3.01. PAYMENTS TO NOTEHOLDERS, CERTIFICATEHOLDER, SERVICER AND
SELLER. In accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Issuer will duly and
punctually (i) pay the principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes in
accordance with the terms of the Notes and (ii) release from the Collection
Account, Principal Distribution Account and Payahead Account all other amounts
distributable or payable from the Owner Trust Estate (including distributions to
be made to the Certificateholder on any Payment Date) under the Trust Agreement,
Sale and Servicing Agreement and Administration Agreement. Without limiting the
foregoing, and in order to fulfill such obligations, pursuant to Sections 8.02
and 8.04 hereof, the Issuer will cause the Servicer to direct the Indenture
Trustee to apply all amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, Payahead
Account and Reserve Account on a Payment Date deposited therein pursuant to the
Sale and Servicing Agreement (i) (a) for the benefit of the Class A-1 Notes, to
the Class A-1 Noteholders, (b) for the benefit of the Class A-2 Notes, to the
Class A-2 Noteholders, (c) for the benefit of the Class A-3 Notes, to the Class
A-3 Noteholders and (d) for the benefit of the Class A-4 Notes, to the Class A-4
Noteholders, in each case as set forth in Sections 5.06 and 5.07 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, (ii) for the benefit of the Certificateholder, to or as
directed by the Owner Trustee or the Administrator, as set forth in Sections
5.06 and 5.07 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (iii) for the benefit of the
Servicer, to or as directed by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement; and (iv) for the benefit of the Seller, to or as
directed by the Seller pursuant to Section 5.07 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement. Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a payment
to any Noteholder or the Certificateholder of interest and/or principal shall be
considered as having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder or the
Certificateholder for all purposes of this Indenture.

         SECTION 3.02. MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY. The Issuer will maintain
in the Borough of Manhattan, 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 U.S. Bank National
Association 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. All payments of
amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes or the Certificate that are to
be made from amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account, Principal
Distribution Account or Reserve Fund pursuant to Sections 2.07, 3.01, 4.02 and
4.03 shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by a
Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from such accounts for

                                   16
<PAGE>

payments of Notes or the Certificate shall be paid over to the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee or the Administrator except as provided in this Section.

         On or before each Payment Date, the Issuer shall deposit in the
Collection Account or, in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
cause to be deposited (including the provision of instructions to the Indenture
Trustee to make any required withdrawals from the Payahead Account or Reserve
Account and to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account) to the extent of
funds available therefor, an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then
becoming due under the Notes and the Certificate, such sum to be held in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless the Paying Agent is
the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its action
or failure so to act.

         The Indenture Trustee, as Paying Agent, hereby agrees with the Issuer
that it will, and the Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the
Indenture Trustee, as a condition to its acceptance of its appointment as Paying
Agent, to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which
such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee, subject to the
provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:

         (a)      hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with
respect to the Notes or the Certificate or for release to the Issuer for payment
to the Certificateholder 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 or release such sums to such Persons as herein
provided;

         (b)      give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer
(or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the
making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes or the
release of any amounts to the Issuer to be paid to the Certificateholder;

         (c)      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;

         (d)      immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the
Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes (or for
release to the Issuer) 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

         (e)      comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the
withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes or the Certificate (or
assisting the Issuer to withhold from payment to the Certificateholder) 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

                                    17
<PAGE>

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 after such
amount has become due and payable and after the Indenture Trustee has taken the
steps described in the next paragraph shall be discharged from such trust and be
paid to the California Special Olympics upon presentation thereto 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.

         In the event that any Noteholder shall not surrender its Notes for
retirement within six months after the date specified in the written notice of
final payment described in Section 2.07, the Indenture will give a second
written notice to the registered Noteholders that have not surrendered their
Notes for final payment and retirement. If within one year after such second
notice any Notes have not been surrendered, the Indenture Trustee 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 paid to California Special Olympics. The
Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of
the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment
specified by the Issuer or the Administrator.

         SECTION 3.04. EXISTENCE. The Issuer will keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a business 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 of America,
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, the Collateral and each other
instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate or the Owner Trust Estate.

         SECTION 3.05. PROTECTION OF TRUST ESTATE. The Issuer will from time to
time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such
financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance
and other instruments, and will take such other action necessary or advisable
to:

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

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

         (c)      enforce any of the Collateral; or

                                         18
<PAGE>

         (d)      preserve and defend title to the Trust Estate and the rights
of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in such Trust Estate against the
claims of all persons and parties.

The Issuer hereby designates the Indenture Trustee its agent and
attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement, continuation statement or
other instrument required to be executed pursuant to this Section 3.05.

         SECTION 3.06. OPINIONS AS TO TRUST ESTATE.
         (a)      On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such
counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the execution, recording and
filing of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, any requisite
financing statements and continuation statements and any other requisite
documents necessary to perfect and make effective the lien and security interest
of this Indenture or stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such
action is necessary to make such lien and security interest effective.

         (b)      As and when specified in Section 10.02(h) of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such
action has been taken with respect to the execution, recording, filing or
re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto,
any financing statements and continuation statements and any other requisite
documents necessary to maintain the lien and security interest created by this
Indenture or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is
necessary to maintain such lien and security interest. Such Opinion of Counsel
shall also describe the execution, recording, filing or re-recording and
refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, any financing
statements and continuation statements and any other documents that will, in the
opinion of such counsel, be required to maintain the lien and security interest
of this Indenture until the date in the following calendar year on which such
Opinion of Counsel must again be delivered.

         SECTION 3.07. PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS; SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES.

         (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 Trust Estate 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 in
each case as expressly provided in the Basic Documents.

         (b)      The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in
performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties
by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate of
the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. 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 the Basic Documents and in the
instruments and agreements included in the Trust Estate, including but not
limited to filing or causing to be filed all UCC financing

                                   19
<PAGE>

statements and continuation statements required to be filed by the terms of
the Trust Agreement, this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement in
accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and therein.

         (d)      If an Authorized Officer of the Issuer shall have knowledge of
the occurrence of a Servicer Default under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the
Issuer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and shall specify in such
notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking with respect of such default,
and the Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of such
Servicer Default and proposed actions of the Issuer. 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
Receivables, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to
remedy such failure.

         (e)      As promptly as possible after the giving of notice of
termination to the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to
Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or if the Servicer resigns in
accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture
Trustee shall give prompt written notice of such event to the Noteholders and
each Rating Agency and shall act to appoint a successor servicer (the "Successor
Servicer"). Any such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a
written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event
that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and accepted its appointment as
set forth in Section 8.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture
Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor
Servicer and shall thereafter be entitled to the Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding
the above, the Indenture Trustee shall, if it shall be unwilling or legally
unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to
appoint any established institution having a net worth of not less than
$50,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of automobile
and/or light-duty truck receivables, as the successor to the Servicer under the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.02
of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon such appointment, the Indenture
Trustee will be released from the duties and obligations of acting as Successor
Servicer, such release effective upon the effective date of the servicing
agreement entered into between the Successor Servicer and the Issuer.

         In connection with any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make
such arrangements for the compensation of such successor as it and such
Successor Servicer shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and
in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and in accordance with Section 8.02 of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such
successor for the servicing of the Receivables (such agreement to be in form and
substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee). If the Indenture Trustee shall
succeed to the Servicer's duties as servicer of the Receivables as provided
herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as
Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VI hereof shall be
inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as Successor Servicer and
the servicing of the Receivables. In case the Indenture Trustee shall become the
Successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to appoint as a
subservicer any one of its affiliates, provided that the Indenture Trustee, in
its capacity as Successor Servicer, shall remain fully liable for the actions
and omissions of such Affiliate.

         (f)      Without derogating from the absolute nature of the assignment
granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture or the rights of the
Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Issuer agrees that it will not enter into any
amendment, modification, supplement or waiver with respect to any Basic Document
except (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in
this Agreement or for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions in this Agreement or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder, and in each
case with the consent of the Indenture Trustee (but without the consent of any
of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder) and delivery of an Opinion of
Counsel delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, to the effect
that such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests
of any Noteholder or the Certificateholder; (ii) for the purpose of changing the
formula for determining the Specified Reserve Account Balance, the manner in
which the Reserve Account is funded, changing the remittance schedule for the
deposit of collections with respect to the Receivables in the Collection Account
or Payahead Account pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement
or changing the definition of Eligible Investment, in each case with the consent
of the Indenture Trustee (but without the consent of any of the Noteholders or
the Certificateholder) if the Indenture Trustee and/or the Owner Trustee, as the
case may be, has received a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that
such Rating Agency will not qualify, reduce or withdraw the rating it has
currently assigned to any Class of Notes as a result of such amendment (provided
that no such amendment may increase or reduce in any manner or accelerate or
delay the timing of collections on the Receivables or payments required to be
made to any Class of Notes or the Certificate without the consent of all Holders
of each affected Class); or (iii) with the consent of the Indenture Trustee and
satisfaction of all other conditions precedent to such action set forth in the
related Basic Document. If any such amendment, modification, supplement or
waiver shall be so consented to by the Indenture Trustee or such Holders, as
applicable, the Issuer agrees, promptly following a request by the Indenture
Trustee to agree to such amendment and to execute and deliver, in its own name
and at its own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other
documents as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or appropriate in the
circumstances to implement such amendment and to cause the relevant Basic
Documents, as amended, to be enforceable against the Issuer.

         SECTION 3.08. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. So long as any Notes are Outstanding,
the Issuer shall not:

         (a)      except as expressly permitted by Basic Documents, sell,
transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the properties or assets of
the Issuer, including those included in the Trust Estate, unless directed to do
so by the Indenture Trustee;

         (b)      claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal
or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly
withheld from such payments under the Code) or assert any claim against any
present or former Noteholder by reason of the payment of the taxes levied or
assessed upon any part of the Trust Estate;

         (c)      except as may be expressly permitted hereby and by the Basic
Documents, (A) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be
impaired, or permit the lien of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated,
subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from
any covenants or obligations with respect to the Notes under this

                                    21
<PAGE>

Indenture, (B) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim, security interest,
mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien of this Indenture) to be
created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden the Trust Estate or
any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof (other than
tax liens, mechanics' liens and other liens that arise by operation of law,
in each case on any of the Financed Vehicles and arising solely as a result
of an action or omission of the related Obligor), (C) permit the lien of this
Indenture not to constitute a valid first priority (other than with respect
to any such tax, mechanics' or other lien) security interest in the Trust
Estate or (D) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part; or

         (d)      assume or incur any indebtedness other than the Notes or as
expressly contemplated by this Indenture (in connection with the obligation to
reimburse Advances from the Trust Estate, or to pay expenses from the Trust
Estate) or by the Basic Documents as in effect on the date hereof.

         SECTION 3.09. ANNUAL STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE. The Issuer will cause
the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee concurrently with its delivery
thereof to the Issuer the annual statement of compliance described in Section
4.11 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. In addition, on the same date annually
upon which such annual statement of compliance is to be delivered by the
Servicer, the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's
Certificate stating, as to the Authorized Officer signing such Officer's
Certificate, that:

         (a)      a review of the activities of the Issuer during such year and
of its performance under this Indenture has been made under such Authorized
Officer's supervision; and

         (b)      to the best of such Authorized Officer's knowledge, based on
such review, the Issuer has complied with all conditions and covenants under
this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in its
compliance with any such condition or covenant, specifying each such default
known to such Authorized Officer and the nature and status thereof.

         SECTION 3.10. ISSUER MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ONLY ON CERTAIN TERMS.

         (a)      The Issuer shall not consolidate or merge with or into any
other Person, unless:

                  (i) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or

         existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State or
         the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by an indenture
         supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Indenture Trustee,
         in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, the duty to make due and
         punctual payments of the principal of and interest on all Notes in
         accordance with the terms thereof and the performance or observance of
         every agreement and covenant of this Indenture on the part of the
         Issuer to be performed or observed, all as provided herein;

                  (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no
         Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

<PAGE>

                  (iii) each Rating Agency shall have notified the Indenture

         the removal or reduction of the rating then assigned thereby to any
         Class of Notes;

                  (iv) the Issuer shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (and

         consequence to the Issuer, any Noteholder or any Certificateholder;

                  (v) any action that is necessary to maintain each lien and
         security interest created by the Trust Agreement, the Sale and
         Servicing Agreement or by this Indenture shall have been taken; and

                  (vi) The Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee

         such consolidation or merger and any related supplemental indenture
         complies with this Section 3.10 and that all conditions precedent
         provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been
         complied with (including any filing required by the Exchange Act).

         (b) Except as expressly provided in this Indenture or in the Basic
Documents, the Issuer shall not convey or transfer its properties or assets,
including those included in the Trust Estate, to any Person, unless:

                  (i) the Person that acquires by conveyance or transfer such
         properties and assets of the Issuer shall (A) be a United States
         citizen or a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United
         States of America or any State or the District of Columbia, (B)
         expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and

         and subordinate to the rights of Holders of the Notes, (D) unless

         arising under or related to this Indenture and the Notes, and (E)
         expressly agrees by means of such supplemental indenture that such

         (b) Upon a conveyance or transfer of all the assets and properties of

the Issuer, (ii) redeem, purchase, retire or otherwise acquire for value any
such ownership or equity interest or security or (iii) set aside or otherwise

Owner Trustee and the Certificateholder as contemplated by, and to the extent
funds are available for such purpose under, the Basic Documents. The Issuer will
not, directly or indirectly, make payments to or distributions from the
Collection Account except in accordance with the Basic Documents.

         SECTION 3.19. NOTICE OF EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The Issuer shall give the
Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies prompt written notice of each Event of
Default hereunder, each default on the part of the Servicer or the Seller of its

relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied
with.

         SECTION 4.02. APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY. All moneys deposited with the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof shall be held in trust and (a)
applied by it in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture

                                    ARTICLE V

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

         (b) default in the payment of the principal of or any installment of
the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable; or

         (c) 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) which shall continue or not be cured for a
period of 90 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified
mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee 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, a written notice specifying such default and
requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a notice of Default
hereunder;

         (d) any representation or warranty of the Issuer made in this Indenture
or in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or in
connection herewith shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect
as of the time when the same shall have been made, and such default shall
continue or not be cured, or the circumstance or condition in respect of which
such misrepresentation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated
or otherwise cured, for a period of 30 days after there shall have been given,
by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or to
the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by

                                    27
<PAGE>

the Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes acting
together as a single class, a written notice specifying such incorrect
representation or warranty and requiring it to be remedied and stating that
such notice is a notice of Default hereunder; or

         (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 Trust Estate in an involuntary case under any applicable federal or state
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or 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 Trust Estate,
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 90
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 Trust Estate, 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 any action by the
Issuer in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

         For purposes of determining whether an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 5.01(b) has occurred, the amount of principal required to be paid to the
Holders of any Class of Notes on any Payment Date is the amount available to be
paid thereto as principal pursuant to Sections 5.06(c) and (d) of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement; provided however that (i) the Class A-1 Notes are required
to be paid in full on or before the Class A-1 Final Scheduled Payment Date,
meaning that Holders of Class A-1 Notes are entitled to have received on or
before such date payments in respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal
to the Class A-1 Initial Principal Balance together with all interest accrued
thereon through such date; (ii) the Class A-2 Notes are required to be paid in
full on or before the Class A-2 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that
Holders of Class A-2 Notes are entitled to have received on or before such date
payments in respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-2
Initial Principal Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through
such date, (iii) the Class A-3 Notes are required to be paid in full on or
before the Class A-3 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that Holders of Class
A-3 Notes are entitled to have received on or before such date payments in
respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-3 Initial
Principal Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through such date
and (iv) the Class A-4 Notes are required to be paid in full on or before the
Class A-4 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that Holders of Class A-4 Notes
are entitled to have received on or before such date payments in respect of
principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-4 Initial Principal
Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through such date.

         The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, within five days
after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer's
Certificate of any Default which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time
would become an Event of Default under clause (c), the status of such Default
and any action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

                                    28
<PAGE>

         SECTION 5.02. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. If an
Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the
Indenture Trustee or the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of
the Class A Notes acting together as a single Class (excluding for such purposes
the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially
owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any of their Affiliates), may, without the consent of
the Certificateholder, declare all the Notes to be immediately due and payable,
by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by
Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such
Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of
acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

         At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the
Holders of Class A Notes representing at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of
the Class A Notes (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount
of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any of their
Affiliates), acting together as a single Class, without the consent of the
Certificateholder, in each case, by written notice to the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences
if:

         (a)      the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a
sum sufficient to pay:

                  (i) all payments of principal of and interest on the
         respective Class of Notes and all other amounts that would then be due
         hereunder or in accordance with the terms of the Notes if the Event of
         Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and

                  (ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee
         hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
         advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and

         (b) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal
or interest of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have
been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

         No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereto.

         SECTION 5.03. COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY
INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) Default is made in the payment of
any interest on any Class A Note, so long as any amounts remain unpaid with
respect to the Class A Notes, when the same becomes due and payable, and such
default continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default is made in the
payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when
the same becomes due and payable (as described in the penultimate paragraph of
Section 5.01 hereof), the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay
to the Indenture

                                     29
<PAGE>

Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then
due and payable on such Class of 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 rate borne by the Notes and in addition thereto such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection,
including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

         (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon
such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may
enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes and collect
in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor
upon such Notes, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be
payable.

         (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion,
proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and,
incidentally thereto, the Certificateholder, 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.

         (d) 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 Trust Estate, 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, then, 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, the Indenture Trustee 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
         the Certificate, 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, and all advances made, by the
         Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a
         result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Noteholders or the
         Certificateholder allowed in such Proceedings;

                                    30
<PAGE>

                  (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 moneys or other property
         payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts
         received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders or the
         Certificateholder 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, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee
         and each predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence
         or bad faith.

         (e) 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.

         (f) 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 and, incidentally thereto, for the
benefit of the Certificateholder.

         (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any
Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to
which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), 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.

         SECTION 5.04. REMEDIES; PRIORITIES; INSOLVENCY OF SELLER.

         (a) If an Event of Default under Section 5.01 shall have occurred and
be continuing which results in the acceleration of the Notes (whether or not the
Trust Estate is sold in one or more public or private sales as provided in
Section 5.04(c)(iv)), and unless and until such

                                    31
<PAGE>

acceleration has been rescinded, the Indenture Trustee will make payments on
the Notes and the Certificate as set forth in Section 5.06(d) of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, rather than pursuant to Section 5.06(c).

         (b) If the Indenture Trustee, in compliance with Section 5.04(a) is
deemed to have a conflict of interest under the TIA and is required to resign as
Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Indenture Trustee, pursuant to Section 6.10,
may appoint an indenture trustee to act separately hereunder for the Class A
Notes. In the event a separate indenture trustee is appointed for the Class A
Notes, so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class A Notes,
only the Indenture Trustee for the Class A Noteholders shall be entitled to
waive any Event of Default or Servicer Default or exercise any remedies under
this Indenture.

         (c) In accordance with Section 5.03, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may do one or more of the
following (subject to Section 5.05):

                  (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an
         express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the
         Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by
         declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect
         from the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes moneys adjudged
         due;

                  (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete
         or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust
         Estate;

                  (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC
         and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights
         and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and

                  (iv) sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
         interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and
         conducted in any manner permitted by law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that,
         notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the
         Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate
         following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described
         in Section 5.01(a) or (b), unless (A) the Holders of 100% of the
         Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes consent thereto or (B) the
         proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Noteholders
         are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid
         upon such Notes for principal and interest or (C) the Indenture Trustee
         determines that the Trust Estate will not continue to provide
         sufficient funds on an ongoing basis to make all payments of principal
         of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes
         had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee
         obtains the consent of Holders of 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of
         the Class A Notes (acting together as a single class). In determining
         such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause (B) and (C),
         the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, 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 Trust Estate for such purpose. In
         connection with any such sale, the Indenture Trustee will afford the
         Holders of each Class of Notes adequate advance notice and information
         as to the conduct of such sale such that any such Holders (acting
         individually, as Classes, as a single Class or

                                     32
<PAGE>

         otherwise) will be reasonably able to submit bids for the purchase of
         the assets to be liquidated, and that the Indenture Trustee will
         consider any and all such bids on the same basis that it considers any
         other bids submitted by any other party or parties. The proceeds of
         such sale or liquidation (net of the expenses incurred by the Indenture
         Trustee in connection with the conduct thereof, which will be retained
         by the Indenture Trustee from such proceeds) will be treated as
         collections and deposited into the Collection Account by the Indenture
         Trustee for distribution to the Noteholders and the Certificateholder
         in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 5.06(d) of the
         Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee will have no
         liability with respect to the amount of such proceeds or the adequacy
         thereof to make payments in full of any Class of Notes or the
         Certificate.

         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 related record date, payment date and amount to be
paid.

         (d) If an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Seller, the
Indenture Trustee (or the Indenture Trustee for the Class A Notes, pursuant to
Section 5.04(c)) will sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in
any manner permitted by law and in a commercially reasonable manner and on
commercially reasonable terms in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02
of the Trust Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indenture Trustee (or the
Indenture Trustee for the Class A Notes, pursuant to Section 5.04(c)) may not
sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate in connection with such event if,
prior to the termination of the Trust Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02 of the
Trust Agreement, the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Class A Notes so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to such Notes
(excluding from such action and calculation all Notes held by TMCC, TMCRC or any
of their Affiliates) notify the Indenture Trustee in writing that they
disapprove of such sale or liquidation and the termination of trusts created
hereby in connection therewith; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in connection with
any such sale the Indenture Trustee will afford the Holders of each Class of
Notes adequate advance notice and information as to the conduct of such sale
such that any such Holders (acting individually, as Classes, as a single Class
or otherwise) will be reasonably able to submit bids for the purchase of the
assets to be liquidated, and that the Indenture Trustee will consider any and
all such bids on the same basis that it considers any other bids submitted by
any other party or parties. The proceeds of such sale or liquidation (net of the
expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the conduct
thereof, which will be retained by the Indenture Trustee from such proceeds)
will be treated as collections and deposited into the Collection Account by the
Indenture Trustee for distribution to the Noteholders and Certificateholders in
accordance with the priorities specified in Section 5.06(d) of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee will have no liability with respect
to the amount of such proceeds or the adequacy thereof to make payments in full
of any Class of Notes or the Certificate. The Indenture Trustee may, but need
not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or
accounting firm of national reputation as to the commercial reasonableness of
the conduct of any such sale or liquidation and as to the expenses incurred by
the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith, the costs of which may be
retained by the Indenture Trustee from the proceeds of such sale or liquidation.

         SECTION 5.05. OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE RECEIVABLES. Except as
provided in Section 5.04(c)(iv), 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
may, unless otherwise directed by the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding
Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together as a single class (excluding from
such action and calculation all Notes held by TMCC, TMCRC or any of their
Affiliates), but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Trust Estate and
direct the Issuer, Servicer and Administrator not to take steps to liquidate the
Receivables. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that
there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into
account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust
Estate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the
Indenture Trustee may, but need not, 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 Trust
Estate for such purpose.

         SECTION 5.06. 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 such Holder has previously given written notice to the
Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, and:

         (a)      the Event of Default arises from the Servicer's failure to
remit payments when due or

         (b)      the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of
the Class A 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 and have offered to
the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request and the Indenture
Trustee for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of
indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings.

         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.

         SECTION 5.07. 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, if any, on such Note on or
after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note and in this
Indenture (in each case with reference to the calculations to be made pursuant
to the Sale and Servicing Agreement) and to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of
such Holder.

                                    34
<PAGE>

         SECTION 5.08. RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If the Indenture
Trustee 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 or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee 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 5.09. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee 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.

         SECTION 5.10. DELAY OR OMISSION NOT A WAIVER. No delay or omission of
the Indenture Trustee 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 V or by law
to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to
time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by
the Noteholders, as the case may be.

         SECTION 5.11. CONTROL BY NOTEHOLDERS. The Holders of at least 51% of
the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together as a single class,
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 Trust Estate shall be by Holders of Notes representing
         not less than percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the
         relevant Class set forth in Section 5.04 or 5.05, as applicable
         (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any
         Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any of
         their Affiliates); 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 Sections 5.07 and 6.01, the Indenture Trustee need not take any
action that it determines would be illegal or may not lawfully be taken, might
subject it to personal liability or would be unduly prejudicial to the rights of
any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

                                    35

         SECTION 5.12. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. Prior to the declaration of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02 or the
liquidation or sale of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04, the Holders of
Class A Notes representing at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A
Notes (acting together as a single Class), without the consent of the Holder of
the Certificate (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of
any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any of their
Affiliates); may waive any past Default, Event of Default or Servicer Default
and its consequences except a (a) Servicer Default in the deposit of collections
or other required amounts into the Collection Account, Principal Distribution
Account, Payahead Account or Reserve Fund, or (b) Default in respect of a
covenant or provision hereof that cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the Holder of each Note. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer,
the Indenture Trustee 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 5.13. UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS. All parties to this Indenture
agree, and each Holder of any Note or Note Owner by such Holder's acceptance of
such Note or beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, 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 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 (a) any suit instituted by the
Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of
Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 25% of the
Outstanding Amount of Notes, or (c) 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.

         SECTION 5.14. 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 advantage 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.

                                       36

<PAGE>

         SECTION 5.15. 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 Trust Estate
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 5.16. 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 or by the Seller of its remedies under or in connection with the
Receivables Purchase Agreement, 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 respective obligations under the Sale
and Servicing Agreement.

         (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing
or by telephone, confirmed in writing promptly thereafter) of the Holders of
66-2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a
single class but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of
any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any of their
Affiliates), 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, against the Seller under or in connection with the
Receivables Purchase Agreement, or against the Administrator under the
Administration Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to
compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller, the Servicer or the
Administrator, of each of their obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give
any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension, or waiver
thereunder 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) The Indenture Trustee, both prior to and after the occurrence of a
Servicer Default under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, undertakes to perform
such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture.

                                       37

<PAGE>

         (b) The Indenture Trustee, 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 conform on their face to the requirements
of this Indenture.

         (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the
Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act, its own bad faith or its own willful misfeasance; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that:

                  (i) the duties and obligations of the Indenture Trustee shall
         be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, the
         Indenture Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of
         such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
         Indenture, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
         Indenture against the Indenture Trustee, the permissive right of the
         Indenture Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not
         be construed as a duty and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of
         the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as
         to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions
         expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the
         Indenture Trustee and conforming on their face to the requirements of
         this Indenture;

                  (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable for
         an error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it
         shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in performing
         its duties in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and

                  (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable
         with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in
         good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of at least
         51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as
         a single class but excluding for such purposes the outstanding
         principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by
         TMCC, TMCRC or any of their Affiliates) relating to the time, method
         and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
         Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
         Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. Moreover, if more than one
         Indenture Trustee has been appointed, each Indenture Trustee shall owe
         any and all fiduciary duties only to the Class or Classes of Notes on
         whose behalf it shall have been appointed.

         (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its
own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of
its duties under this Indenture, or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of
such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to it.

         (e) All information obtained by the Indenture Trustee regarding the
Obligors and the Receivables contained in the Trust, whether upon the exercise
of its rights under this Indenture or otherwise, shall be maintained by the
Indenture Trustee in confidence and shall not be disclosed

                                       38

<PAGE>

to any other Person, unless such disclosure is required by any applicable law
or regulation or pursuant to subpoena.

         (f) Pursuant to Sections 3.02 and 4.08 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, in the event that a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee discovers
that a representation or warranty with respect to a Receivable was incorrect as
of the time specified with respect to such representation and warranty or that a
covenant of the Servicer has been breached, and such incorrectness or breach
materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Servicer and the Owner Trustee
of such incorrectness.

         SECTION 6.02. RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a)      Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01:

                  (i)      the Indenture Trustee may rely and shall be protected
         in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer's
         Certificate, certificate of an authorized signatory, certificate of
         auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion,
         report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper
         or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
         presented by the proper party or parties;

                  (ii)     the Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel and
         any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
         protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it
         under this Indenture in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion
         of Counsel;

                  (iii)    the Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to
         exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend
         any litigation under this Indenture, or in relation to this Indenture
         or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, at the request, order or direction
         of any of the Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture
         or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, unless such Noteholders shall have
         offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity
         against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred
         therein or thereby;

                  (iv)     the Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable
         for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and
         reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or
         rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

                  (v)      the Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to
         recalculate, reverify, or make any investigation into the facts of
         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
         Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate
         Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a single
         class but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount
         of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any
         of their

                                       39

<PAGE>

         Affiliates); 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 Indenture, the Indenture Trustee may
         require reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or liability
         as a condition to so proceeding; the reasonable expense of every
         such examination shall be paid by the Administrator or, if paid by
         the Indenture Trustee, shall be reimbursed by the Administrator upon
         demand; and nothing in this clause shall derogate from the
         obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting
         disclosure of information regarding the Obligors; and

                  (vi)     the Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts
         or powers under this Indenture or perform any duties under this
         Indenture either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a
         custodian.

         (b) No Noteholder will have any right to institute any proceeding with
respect to this Indenture except upon satisfying the conditions set forth in
Section 5.06.

         SECTION 6.03. INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the Holder,
beneficial 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, in so doing the Indenture Trustee must
comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.

         SECTION 6.04. INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER. The Indenture Trustee
makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or
of the Notes (other than the execution by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the
Trust of, and the certificate of authentication on, the Notes), or of the
Certificate. The Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation to perform any of
the duties of the Servicer or the Administrator unless explicitly set forth in
this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility
or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of
the Notes or any Receivable, any ownership interest in any Financed Vehicle, or
the maintenance of any such ownership interest, or for or with respect to the
efficacy of the Trust or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed
to Noteholders under this Indenture, including without limitation the validity
of the assignment of the Receivables to the Trust or of any intervening
assignment; the existence, condition, location and ownership of any Receivable
or Financed Vehicle; the existence and enforceability of any physical damage or
credit life or credit disability insurance; the existence and contents of any
retail installment sales contract or any computer or other record thereof; the
completeness of any retail installment sales contract; the performance or
enforcement of any retail installment sales contract; the compliance by the
Issuer with any covenant or the breach by the Issuer, Seller or Servicer of any
warranty or representation made under this Indenture or in any Basic Document or
other related document and the accuracy of any such warranty or representation
prior to the Indenture Trustee's receipt of notice or other discovery of any
noncompliance therewith or any breach thereof; the acts or omissions of the
Issuer, Seller or the Servicer; or any action by the Indenture Trustee taken at
the instruction of the Servicer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the foregoing shall not
relieve the Indenture Trustee of its obligation to perform its duties under this
Indenture.

                                       40

<PAGE>

Except with respect to a claim based on the failure of the Indenture Trustee
to perform its duties under this Indenture or based on the Indenture
Trustee's willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence, no recourse shall be
had for any claim based on any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the
Certificate or assignment thereof against the institution serving as the
Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity. The Indenture Trustee shall not
have any personal obligation, liability or duty whatsoever to any Noteholder
or any other Person with respect to any such claim, and any such claim shall
be asserted solely against the Trust or any indemnitor who shall furnish
indemnity as provided in this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of any of the Notes or
of the proceeds of such Notes, or for the use or application of any funds
paid to the Servicer in respect of the Notes.

         SECTION 6.05. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. If a Trust Officer of the Indenture
Trustee knows that a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of such Default within 10 days of
the occurrence thereof. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal
of or interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold such notice if
and so long as a committee of its Trust 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 or cause to be delivered annually to each Noteholder of
record such information as may be required to enable such holder to prepare its
federal and state income tax returns. The Indenture Trustee shall also deliver
or cause to be delivered annually to each Noteholder of record a report relating
to its eligibility and qualification to continue as Indenture Trustee under this
Indenture, any amounts advanced by it under this Indenture, the amount, interest
rate and maturity date of certain indebtedness owed by the Trust to such
Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity, the property and funds physically
held by such Indenture Trustee in its capacity as such, and any action taken by
it that materially affects the Notes and that has not been previously reported.

         SECTION 6.07. COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. The Issuer shall pay or shall
cause the Servicer 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, disbursements and advances of the
Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Administrator
shall indemnify or shall cause the Servicer to indemnify the Indenture Trustee
against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable 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
Administrator and the Servicer promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Administrator and
the Servicer shall not relieve the Administrator or the Servicer of its
obligations hereunder. In case any such action is brought against the Indenture
Trustee under this Section 6.07 and it notifies the Administrator of the
commencement thereof, the Administrator will assume the defense thereof, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee (who may, unless there
is, as evidenced by an

                                       41

<PAGE>

opinion of counsel to the Indenture Trustee stating that there is an
unwaivable conflict of interest, be counsel to the Administrator), and
neither the Administrator nor the Servicer will be liable to the Indenture
Trustee under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the defense thereof,
other than reasonable costs of investigation. Neither the Administrator nor
the Servicer 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 Administrator's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee
pursuant to this Section shall survive 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) or the Seller incurs expenses after the occurrence of an
Insolvency Event with respect to the Seller, 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 providing written notice of its resignation to the
Issuer. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, may remove the Indenture
Trustee if:

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

         (b)      the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

         (c)      a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the
Indenture Trustee or its property; or

         (d)      the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes legally or practically
incapable of fulfilling its duties hereunder.

         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
Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall promptly appoint a successor
Indenture Trustee. No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and no
appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this
Section 6.08.

         A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, to the Servicer and to the
Administrator. 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 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 Administrator or the

                                       42

<PAGE>

Holders of a majority in 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 at any time thereafter petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Indenture Trustee.

         Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section, the Issuer's and the Administrator's obligations under Section
6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

         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 Person, the
resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be
the successor Indenture Trustee if such surviving Person or transferee
corporation or bank shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section
6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Issuer, the Servicer and the
Rating Agencies reasonable prior written notice of any such transaction.

         In case at the time such successor or successors 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 which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.



         SECTION 6.10. APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE INDENTURE
TRUSTEE.

         (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Estate 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, 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 Trust Estate, 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 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 hereof.

                                       43

<PAGE>

         (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:

         (c) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
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 and/or
directing 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 Estate 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;

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

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

         (d) 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 Agreement and
the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon
its acceptance of the trusts thereupon conferred, shall be vested with the
estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly
with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to
all the provisions of this Indenture, including every provision of this
Indenture 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.

         (e) 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 Agreement 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.

         SECTION 6.11. ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION. The Indenture Trustee
shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(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 and it or its
parent shall have a long-term debt rating of Baa3 or better by Moody's or shall
otherwise be acceptable to Moody's. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA
Section 310(b), including the optional provision permitted by the second
sentence of TIA Section 310(b)(9); provided, however, that there shall be
excluded from the operation of

                                       44

<PAGE>

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.

         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 TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

         SECTION 6.13. PENNSYLVANIA MOTOR VEHICLE SALES FINANCE COMPANY
LICENSES. The Indenture Trustee shall use its best efforts to maintain the
effectiveness of all licenses required under the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle
Sales Finance Act in connection with this Indenture and the transactions
contemplated hereby until the lien and security interest of this Indenture shall
no longer be in effect in accordance with the terms hereof.

         SECTION 6.14. MARYLAND MOTOR VEHICLE SALES FINANCE COMPANY LICENSES.
The Indenture Trustee shall use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness
of all licenses required under the Maryland Financial Institutions Code in
connection with this Indenture and the transactions contemplated hereby until
the lien and security interest of this Indenture shall no longer be in effect in
accordance with the terms hereof.


                                   ARTICLE VII

                         NOTEHOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS

         SECTION 7.01. NOTE REGISTRAR TO FURNISH NAMES AND ADDRESSES OF
NOTEHOLDERS. The Note Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee, Servicer or Administrator, within 15 days
after receipt by the Note Registrar of a written request therefrom, a list of
the names and addresses of the Noteholders of any Class as of the most recent
Record Date. If three or more Holders of Notes of any Class, or one or more
Holders of such Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of
such Notes (hereinafter referred to as "Applicants"), apply in writing to the
Indenture Trustee, and such application states that the Applicants desire to
communicate with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this
Indenture or under the Notes and such application is accompanied by a copy of
the communication that such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Indenture
Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application,
afford such Applicants access, during normal business hours, to the current list
of Noteholders. Such Indenture Trustee may elect not to afford the requesting
Noteholders access to the list of Noteholders if it agrees to mail the desired
communication by proxy, on behalf of and at the expense of the requesting
Noteholders, to all Noteholders. Every Noteholder, by receiving and holding a
Note, agrees with the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that none of the
Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Issuer, the Servicer or the
Administrator shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such
information as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders under this
Indenture, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

                                       45

<PAGE>

         If the Indenture Trustee shall cease to be the Note Registrar, then
thereafter the Administrator will furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Indenture Trustee not more than five days after the most recent Record Date or
at such other times as the Indenture Trustee reasonably may request in writing,
a list, in such form as the Indenture Trustee reasonably may require, of the
names and addresses of the Holders of Notes as of such Record Date.

         SECTION 7.02. PRESERVATION OF INFORMATION; COMMUNICATIONS TO
NOTEHOLDERS.

         (a) The Indenture Trustee shall preserve, in as current a 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 Indenture Trustee may
destroy any list furnished to it as provided in such Section 7.01 upon receipt
of a new list so furnished.

         (b) Noteholders may communicate pursuant to TIA Section 312(b) with
other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the
Notes.

         (c) The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall have
the protection of TIA Section 3.12(c).

         SECTION 7.03. REPORTS BY ISSUER.

         (a)      The Issuer shall:

                  (i) file with the Indenture Trustee, within 15 days after the
         Issuer is required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the
         annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or
         copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may
         from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Issuer
         may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or
         15(d) of the Exchange Act;

                  (ii) file with the Indenture Trustee and the Commission in
         accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed from time to time
         by the Commission such additional information, documents and reports
         with respect to compliance 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 Indenture
         Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Noteholders described in TIA
         Section 313(c)) such summaries of any information, documents and
         reports required to be filed by the Issuer pursuant to clauses (i) and
         (ii) of this Section 7.03(a) and by rules and regulations prescribed
         from time to time by the Commission.

         (b)      Unless the Issuer otherwise determines, the fiscal year of the
Issuer shall end on September 30 of each year.

         SECTION 7.04. REPORTS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE. If required by TIA Section
313(a), within 60 days after each September 30 beginning with 2000, the
Indenture Trustee shall mail to

                                       46

<PAGE>

each Noteholder as required by TIA Section 313(c) a brief report dated as of
such date that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Indenture Trustee also
shall comply with TIA Section 313(b).

         A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders shall
be filed by the Indenture Trustee with the Commission and each stock exchange,
if any, on which the Notes are listed. The Issuer shall notify the Indenture
Trustee if and when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                      ACCOUNTS, DISBURSEMENTS AND RELEASES

         SECTION 8.01. COLLECTION OF MONEY. 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 receivable by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. The Indenture
Trustee shall apply all such money received by it as provided in this Indenture.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, if any default occurs
in the making of any payment or performance under any agreement or instrument
that is part of the Trust Estate, 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 V.

         SECTION 8.02. TRUST ACCOUNTS.

         (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Issuer shall cause the
Servicer to establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for
the benefit of the Noteholders and, to the extent set forth herein, the
Certificateholder, the Collection Account and Payahead Account as provided in
Section 5.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         (b) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall, pursuant to the
Securities Account Control Agreement, establish and maintain with the Indenture
Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, the Reserve Account as provided in
Section 5.07 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon the execution and
delivery by the parties hereto of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will
deliver to the Securities Intermediary the Prohibition Notice provided for in
the Securities Account Control Agreement. In connection with the termination of
this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee will deliver to the Securities
Intermediary the Rescission of Prohibition Notice provided for in the Securities
Account Control Agreement.

         SECTION 8.03. [Reserved].

         SECTION 8.04. GENERAL PROVISIONS REGARDING ACCOUNTS.

         (a) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, all or a portion of the funds in the Collection Account and
Payahead Account shall be invested in

                                       47

<PAGE>

Eligible Investments and reinvested by the Indenture Trustee at the written
direction of the Servicer, subject to the provisions of Section 5.01 of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement. All income or other gain from investments of
moneys deposited in the Collection Account and Payahead Account shall be
deposited by the Indenture Trustee in the Collection Account and paid to the
Servicer as servicing compensation on each Payment Date, and any loss
resulting from such investments in excess of such income or gain (against
which such losses will first be applied) shall be charged to such account.
The Servicer will not direct the Indenture Trustee to make any investment of
any funds or to sell any investment held in the Collection Account or
Payahead Account unless the security interest granted and perfected in such
account will continue to be perfected in such investment or the proceeds of
such sale, in either case without any further action by any Person, and, in
connection with any direction to the Indenture Trustee to make any such
investment or sale, if requested by the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall
deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, acceptable to the
Indenture Trustee, to such effect.

         (b) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, all or a portion of the funds in the Reserve Account shall be
invested in Eligible Investments and reinvested by the Indenture Trustee (by
delivery to the Securities Intermediary of appropriate Entitlement Orders) at
the written direction of the Seller, subject to the provisions of Section 5.07
of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the provisions of the Securities Account
Control Agreement. All income or other gain from investments of moneys deposited
in the Reserve Account shall be paid by the Indenture Trustee to the Seller on
each Payment Date (by delivery to the Securities Intermediary of appropriate
Entitlement Orders). Subject to the right of the Indenture Trustee to make
withdrawals therefrom, as directed by the Servicer, for the purposes and in the
amounts set forth in Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the
Reserve Account and all funds held therein shall be the property of the Seller
and not the property of the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.
The Seller will grant to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the
Noteholders, a security interest in all funds (including Eligible Investments,
but not the income from such investments) in the Reserve Account (including the
Reserve Account Initial Deposit) and the proceeds thereof, and the Indenture
Trustee shall have all of the rights of a secured party under the UCC with
respect thereto; provided that all income from the investment of funds in the
Reserve Account and the right to receive such income are retained by the Seller
and are not transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed hereunder. The Seller
will not direct the Indenture Trustee to make any investment of any funds or to
sell any investment held in the Reserve Account unless the security interest
granted and perfected in such account will continue to be perfected in such
investment or the proceeds of such sale, in either case without any further
action by any Person, and, in connection with any direction to the Indenture
Trustee to make any such investment or sale, if requested by the Indenture
Trustee, the Seller shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel, acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, to such effect.

         (c) Subject to Section 6.01(c), the Indenture Trustee shall not in any
way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Collection Account,
Payahead Account or Reserve Account resulting from any loss on any Eligible
Investment included therein at the direction of the Servicer or Seller, as the
case may be, except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee's failure
to make payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee,
in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in
accordance with the terms thereof.

                                       48

<PAGE>

         (d) If (i) the Servicer or Seller shall have failed to give investment
directions for any funds on deposit in the Collection Account, Payahead Account
and Reserve Account, as the case may be, to the Indenture Trustee by 11:00 a.m.
Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuer and Indenture
Trustee) on any Business Day or (ii) a Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not
have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.02 or (iii) if such
Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default,
but amounts collected or receivable from the Trust Estate are being applied in
accordance with Section 5.05 as if there had not been such a declaration, then
the Indenture Trustee shall, to the fullest extent practicable, invest and
reinvest funds in the Trust Accounts in one or more Eligible Investments
specified in clause (h) of the definition of Eligible Investments provided in
the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         SECTION 8.05. RELEASE OF TRUST ESTATE.

         (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 such property, 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 VIII 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 moneys.

         (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 Trust Estate that secured the
Notes from the lien of this Indenture and release to or to the order of the
Issuer or, in the case of the Reserve Account, to the Seller, entitled thereto
any funds then on deposit in the Collection Account, Payahead Account and
Reserve Account, as the case may be. The Indenture Trustee shall release
property from the lien of this Indenture pursuant to this Section 8.05(b) only
upon receipt of an Issuer Request accompanied by an Officer's Certificate, an
Opinion of Counsel and (if required by the TIA) Independent Certificates in
accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) meeting the applicable
requirements of Section 11.01.

         SECTION 8.06. OPINION OF COUNSEL. The Indenture Trustee shall receive
at least seven days notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action
pursuant to Section 8.05(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved,
and the Indenture Trustee shall also require, as a condition to such action, an
Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to 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 Trust Estate. 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.

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

         SECTION 9.01. SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITHOUT CONSENT OF NOTEHOLDERS.
Subject to Section 9.03, without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but
with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee,
when authorized by an Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may enter
into one or more indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the
provisions of the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of the execution
thereof), in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the
following purposes:

         (a) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time
subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm
unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to

         (g) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to

         SECTION 9.02. SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF NOTEHOLDERS.
Subject to Section 9.03, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized
by an Issuer Order, also may, with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and with
the consent of the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Class A Notes, acting together as a single Class (excluding for such purposes
the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially
owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any of their Affiliates), by Action of such Holders
delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or
indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this
Indenture.

         The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not
any Notes would be adversely 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 Action of Noteholders under this
Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture,
but it shall be sufficient if such Action shall approve the substance thereof.

         Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of
any supplemental 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.

         SECTION 9.03. LIMITATIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES The Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee, in accordance with Sections 9.01 and 9.02 above, may enter
into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding
any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the
Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such
supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Note affected thereby:

         (a) change the date of payment of any installment of principal of or
interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the Interest Rate
thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of
collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate to payment of
principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment where, or
the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or
impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this
Indenture, to the extent provided in Article V, requiring the application of
funds available therefor to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on
or after the respective due dates thereof;

         (b) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes (or
the Notes of any Class, as applicable), the consent of the Holders of which is
required for any such

                                        51
<PAGE>
supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required
for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or
certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this
Indenture;

         (c) modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the definition of
the term "Outstanding" or;

         (d) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes (or
the Notes of any Class, as applicable) required to direct the Indenture Trustee
to direct the Issuer to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section
5.04;

         (e) modify any provision of this Section except to increase any
percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional provisions of
this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot be modified or waived without the
consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby;

         (f) modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as to
affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due
on any Note on any Payment Date (including the calculation of any of the
individual components of such calculation);

         (g) permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity
with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or,
except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the lien of this
Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of
any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture; or

         (h) modify or alter the provisions hereof regarding the voting of Notes
held by the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, TMCC or any of its Affiliates
or the Trust.

         SECTION 9.04. EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. In executing, or
permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created
by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and
subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an
Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the
Indenture Trustee's own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise.

         SECTION 9.05. EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. Upon the execution of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture
shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith
with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under
this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Holders of the Notes
and the Certificateholder shall 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.

         SECTION 9.06. CONFORMITY WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. Every amendment of
this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this
Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then
in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act.

         SECTION 9.07. REFERENCE IN NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES. Notes
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall,
bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the 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 delivered by the
Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

         SECTION 10.01.    TERMINATION OF THE TRUSTS CREATED BY INDENTURE.

         (a) The trusts created hereby and the respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Issuer, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee
shall terminate upon (i) the purchase as of any Payment Date by the Servicer, or
any successor to the Servicer, at its option of the Receivables primarily
comprising the corpus of the Owner Trust Estate as described in Section 10.02,
(ii) the payment to the Noteholders of all amounts required to be paid to them
pursuant to this Agreement and the release to the Owner Trustee of all remaining
amounts or investments on deposit in the Collection Account or Payahead Account
and the release to the Seller of the amounts held in the Reserve Account or
(iii) the maturity or liquidation of the last Receivable and the disposition of
all property held as part of the Owner Trust Estate; provided, however, that in
no event shall the trust created by this Indenture continue beyond the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of
Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St.
James, living on the date of this Indenture. The Owner Trustee shall promptly
notify the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency of any prospective
termination pursuant to this Section.

         (b) Notice of any termination, specifying the Payment Date upon which
the Noteholders must surrender their Notes to the Indenture Trustee for payment
of the final distribution and retirement of the Notes, shall be given promptly
by the Indenture Trustee (at the written direction of the Administrator) by
letter to Noteholders mailed not later than the 15th day and not earlier than
the 30th day prior to the date on which such final distribution is expected to
occur specifying (i) the Payment Date upon which final payment of the Notes
shall be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes at the office of the
Indenture Trustee therein specified, (ii) the amount of any such final payment
and (iii) if applicable, that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and
surrender of the Notes at the office of the Indenture Trustee therein specified.
The Indenture

                                     53
<PAGE>

Trustee shall give such notice to the Note Registrar (if other than the
Indenture Trustee) at the time such notice is given to Noteholders. In the
event such notice is given, the Seller, the Servicer, or any successor to the
Servicer, or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall make deposits
into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 5.02 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, or, in the case of an optional purchase of Receivables
pursuant to Section 10.02, shall deposit the amount specified in Section
10.02. Upon presentation and surrender of the Notes, the Indenture Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to Noteholders amounts distributable on such
Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         SECTION 10.02. OPTIONAL PURCHASE OF ALL RECEIVABLES. If the Servicer,
or any successor to the Servicer, shall notify the Owner Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee of its intention to exercise the option granted to it in the
Sale and Servicing Agreement to repurchase the outstanding Receivables primarily
comprising the Owner Trust Estate, then the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee
shall give written notice thereof to each Securityholder and the Rating Agencies
as soon as practicable after their receipt of notice from the Servicer. Upon
deposit by the Servicer or successor to the Servicer of the amount necessary to
effect such purchase of the corpus of the Owner Trust Estate, the Indenture
Trustee shall make the final distributions to the Noteholders and
Certificateholders as set forth in Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Section 10.01 hereof and shall promptly transfer all of its right,
title and interest in and to any amounts or investments remaining on deposit in
the Collection Account and all of its rights to make withdrawals from the
Payahead Account and the Reserve Account (excluding any portion thereof
necessary to make distributions to Noteholders described in Section 3.03) to the
Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholder and release from the lien
of this Indenture all of the remaining Collateral. The Indenture Trustee shall
execute, deliver and file all agreements, certificates, instruments or other
documents necessary or reasonably requested by the Owner Trustee in order to
effect such release and the transfer to the Owner Trustee of the Collateral.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 11.01.    COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES AND OPINIONS, ETC.

         (a) Upon any application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture
Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Issuer
shall, upon written request therefor from the Indenture Trustee, furnish to the
Indenture Trustee (i) an Officer's Certificate stating that all conditions
precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed
action have been complied with, (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the
opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been
complied with and (iii) (if required by the TIA) an Independent Certificate from
a firm of certified public accountants meeting the applicable requirements of
this Section, except that, in the case of any such application or request as to
which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision
of this Indenture, no such written request from the Indenture Trustee need be
furnished (and only such expressly required documents need be delivered in
connection therewith).

                                    54

<PAGE>

         Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a
condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

                  (i) a statement that each signatory of such certificate or
         opinion has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition
         and the definitions herein relating thereto;

                  (ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
         examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions
         contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

                  (iii) a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory,
         such signatory has made such examination or investigation as is
         necessary to enable such signatory to express an informed opinion as to
         whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

                  (iv) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such
         signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

         (b)      (i) Prior to the deposit of any Collateral or other property
         or securities with the Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis
         for the release of any property or securities subject to the lien of
         this Indenture, the Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed
         in Section 11.01(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value
         (within 90 days of such deposit) to the Issuer of the Collateral or
         other property or securities to be so deposited.

                  (ii) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of any signatory thereof as to the matters described in clause
         (i) above, the Issuer shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an
         Independent Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to
         the Issuer of the securities to be so deposited and of all other such
         securities made the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the
         commencement of the then-current fiscal year of the Issuer, as set
         forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and
         this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the
         Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any
         securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuer as set
         forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or less
         than one percent of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

                  (iii) Whenever any property or securities are to be released
         from the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the
         Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
         opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair 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 under this Indenture in
         contravention of the provisions hereof.

<PAGE>

         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 such officer's
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, the Issuer or the
Administrator, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters
is in the possession of the Servicer, the Seller, the Issuer or the
Administrator, unless such 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 "Action" of the
Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. 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.

                                   56
<PAGE>

         (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 AND RATING
AGENCIES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or Action 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 Action of Noteholders is to be made upon,
given or furnished to or filed with:

         (a) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in
writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or

         (b) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class,
postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Toyota Auto Receivables 2000-A Owner
Trust, 19001 South Western Avenue, Torrance, California 90509, Attention:
Treasury Department, Vice President, Treasury, or at any other address
previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer or the
Administrator. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from
the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

         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
or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, 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, (ii) in the
case of Standard & Poor's, at the following address: Standard & Poor's Ratings
Group, 26 Broadway (15th Floor), New York, New York 10004, Attention of 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) (a) in the case
of Book-Entry Notes, upon delivery to the Clearing Agency in writing and (b) in
the case of Definitive Notes, when mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each
Noteholder affected by such event, at his address as it appears on the Note
Register, in each case being delivered or mailed, as the case may be, 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

                                  57
<PAGE>

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.

         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.

                                     58
<PAGE>

         SECTION 11.10. SEVERABILITY. If any one or more of the covenants,
agreements, provisions or terms of this Indenture shall be for any reason
whatsoever held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then such
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the
remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Indenture and shall
in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this
Indenture or of the Notes or the Certificate or the rights of the Holders

         Toyota Auto Receivables 2000-A Owner Trust, a business trust organized

the preceding Payment Date), subject to certain limitations contained in Section
3.01 of the Indenture and Sections 5.06(c) and 5.06(d) of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement. Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, each Payment

computed on the basis specified in the Indenture for each Interest Period. Such

                                     not in its individual capacity but solely
                                     as Indenture Trustee,

                                  A-1-5

<PAGE>

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer,
designated as its 6.83375% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1 (herein called the
"Class A-1 Notes"), all issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee and the Holders of the Notes. The Class A-1 Notes are subject to all
terms of the Indenture.

         The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the
Class A-4 Notes (collectively, the "Notes") are and will be equally and ratably
secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.

         Principal of the Class A-1 Notes will be payable on each Payment Date
in an amount described in the Indenture. "Payment Date" means the fifteenth day
of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business Day, commencing July 17, 2000.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of
the Notes shall be due and payable (i) on the date on which an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee or the Holders
of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together
as a single class (but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal
amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any
of their Affiliates) have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable
in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture, (ii) following the
termination or liquidation of the Trust Estate in connection with the exercise
by the Servicer of its option to purchase the Receivables pursuant to Section
9.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 10.02 of the Indenture or
(iii) within 90 days of certain Insolvency Events with respect to TMCRC. All
principal payments on the Class A-1 Notes shall be made pro rata to the Class
A-1 Noteholders entitled thereto.

         Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each Payment Date,
together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full
payment of this Note, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or
one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered in the Note Register on the Record
Date. Such payment will be made by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to
such Person's address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date or
by wire transfer to the account specified by the registered holder of any Note
with a face amount of at least $10,000,000. Any reduction in the principal
amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any
payments made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of
this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are
expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of
the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then
the Indenture Trustee, in the name of and on behalf of the Issuer, will notify
the Person who was the Registered Holder hereof as of the Record Date preceding
such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such
Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall be payable only upon
presentation and surrender of this Note at the Indenture Trustee's principal
Corporate Trust Office or at the office of the Indenture Trustee's agent
appointed for such purposes located in The City of New York.

         The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at
the Class A-1 Rate to the extent lawful.

<PAGE>

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set
forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency
designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as set forth in Section 2.04 of the Indenture, and thereupon
one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and in the same aggregate
principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No
service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of
this Note, but the Noteholder may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
such registration of transfer or exchange.

         Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case
of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees 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
the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection
therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or
(iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of
the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any
holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
Trustee, in their capacities as such, 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. The Holder of this Note by its
acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for
any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture
or in this Note.

         Each Noteholder or Note Owner that is not TMCC, TMCRC or an Affiliate
of either of them, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a
beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of
the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner 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 under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or
similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the
Indenture or the Basic Documents.

         The Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Note is 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 Trust Estate. Each Noteholder, by acceptance of a Note (and each
Note Owner by acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to treat
the Notes for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax
purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in

                                  A-1-7
<PAGE>

whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date
as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer,
the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture, in some
cases without the consent of the Holders of any Class of Notes and in other
cases with the consent of Holders of only certain Classes of Notes. Section 5.12
of the Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes
representing specified percentages of the outstanding principal amount of the
Notes of the Class or Classes specified therein, on behalf of the Holders of all
the Notes of such Classes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note (or
any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture
also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the
Notes issued thereunder.

         The term "Issuer" as used in this Note includes any successor to the
Issuer under the Indenture.

         The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances,
to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Holders of Notes under the Indenture.

         The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

         This Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

         No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

                                  A-2-5

<PAGE>

         This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer,
designated as its [____]% Asset Backed Notes, [Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4]
(herein called the "[Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4] Notes"), all issued under
the Indenture, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto
reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights and
obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of
the Notes. The [Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4] Notes are subject to all terms
of the Indenture.

         The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the
Class A-4 Notes (collectively, the "Notes") are and will be equally and ratably
secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.

         Principal of the [Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4] Notes will be
payable on each Payment Date in an amount described in the Indenture. "Payment
Date" means the fifteenth day of each month, or, if any such date is not a
Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, commencing July 17, 2000.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of
the Notes shall be due and payable (i) on the date on which an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee or the Holders
of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together
as a single class (but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal
amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TMCRC or any
of their Affiliates) have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable
in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture, (ii) following the
termination or liquidation of the Trust Estate in connection with the exercise
by the Servicer of its option to purchase the Receivables pursuant to Section
9.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 10.02 of the Indenture or
(iii) within 90 days of certain Insolvency Events with respect to TMCRC. All
principal payments on the [Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4] Notes shall be made
pro rata to the [Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4] Noteholders entitled thereto.

         Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each Payment Date,
together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full
payment of this Note, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or
one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered in the Note Register on the Record
Date. 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, except for the final installment of
principal payable with respect to such Note on a Payment Date or on the
applicable Final Scheduled Payment Date, which shall be payable as provided
below. Such payment will be made by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to
such Person's address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date or
by wire transfer to the account specified by the registered holder of any Note
with a face amount of at least $10,000,000. Any reduction in the principal
amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any
payments made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of
this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are
expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of
the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then
the Indenture Trustee, in the name of and on behalf of the Issuer, will notify
the Person who was the Registered Holder hereof as of the Record Date

                                  A-2-6
<PAGE>

preceding such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile
prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall be
payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at the Indenture
Trustee's principal Corporate Trust Office or at the office of the Indenture
Trustee's agent appointed for such purposes located in The City of New York.

         The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at
the [Class A-2][Class A-3][Class A-4] Rate to the extent lawful.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set
forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency
designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee as set forth in Section 2.04 of the Indenture, and thereupon
one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and in the same aggregate
principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No
service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of
this Note, but the Noteholder may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
such registration of transfer or exchange.

         Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case
of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees 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
the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection
therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or
(iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of
the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any
holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
Trustee, in their capacities as such, 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. The Holder of this Note by its
acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder
shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for
any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture
or in this Note.

         Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case
of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by
accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner 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 under any United States
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

         The Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Note is 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 Trust Estate. Each Noteholder, by acceptance of a Note (and each
Note Owner by acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), agrees to treat
the Notes for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax
purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

         Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of
determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be
overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture, in some
cases without the consent of the Holders of any Class of Notes and in other
cases with the consent of Holders of only certain Classes of Notes. Section 5.12
of the Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes
representing specified percentages of the outstanding principal amount of the
Notes of the Class or Classes specified therein, on behalf of the Holders of all
the Notes of such Classes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note (or
any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture
also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the
Notes issued thereunder.

         The term "Issuer" as used in this Note includes any successor to the
Issuer under the Indenture.

         The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances,
to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the
Holders of Notes under the Indenture.

         The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

         This Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder
and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

         No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the
