          This DEPOSIT AND ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT, dated as of June 14, 2001

                             W I T N E S S E T H :

          In consideration of the premises and of the mutual agreements herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                                  ARTICLE I

                            DEPOSIT OF CERTIFICATE

          SECTION 2.1. Deposit of Certificate and Initial Deposit. (a) In
consideration of the Issuer's delivery of the Notes to and upon the order of
the Depositor, the Depositor does hereby transfer, assign, set-over, pledge
and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse (subject to the
Depositor's obligations herein), all right, title, and interest of the
Depositor in, to and under (i) the Series Certificate, and all money,
instruments, investment property and other property (together with all
earnings, dividends, distributions, income, issues, and profits relating
thereto), distributed or distributable in respect of the Series Certificate
pursuant to the terms of the Series Supplement and the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement after the Closing Date and (ii)

<PAGE>

the initial deposit to the Owner
Trust Spread Account in the amount of $8,928,570 on the Closing Date.

          This Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security
agreement within the meaning of the UCC, and the conveyance by the Depositor
provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be and hereby is a grant by
the Depositor to the Issuer of a security interest in and to all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in, to and under all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper,
instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, arising from, or relating to
the Series Certificate and the proceeds thereof, to secure the rights of the
Issuer under this Agreement and the obligations of the Depositor hereunder.
The Depositor and the Issuer shall, to the extent consistent with this
Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that the security
interest in the Series Certificate created hereunder will be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.

          It is the intention of the Depositor and the Issuer that (a) the
assignment and transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Series
Certificate, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and
encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Issuer and (b) the Series Certificate
not be part of the Depositor's estate in the event of an insolvency of the
Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge to
secure a loan, the Depositor hereby grants to the Issuer a first priority
perfected security interest in all of the Depositor's right, title and
interest in, to and under the Series Certificate, and in all proceeds of the
foregoing, to secure the loan deemed to be made in connection with such pledge
and, in such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law.

          (b) To the extent that the Depositor retains any interest in the
Series Certificate, the Depositor hereby grants to the Indenture Trustee for
the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in, to, and under all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper,
instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit,
goods, letters of credit, advices of credit, and investment property
consisting of, arising from, or relating to the Series Certificate and the
proceeds thereof (collectively, the "Indenture Collateral"), to secure the
performance of all of the obligations of the Depositor under the Indenture and
the other Basic Documents. With respect to the Indenture Collateral, the
Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights it has under the Indenture and
the other Basic Documents. The Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights
of a secured creditor under the UCC in New York and the UCC in Delaware.

          SECTION 2.2. Closing. The sale of the Series Certificate shall take
place at the offices of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, New York, New York on the
Closing Date, simultaneously with the closing of the other transactions
contemplated by the Basic Documents.

          SECTION 2.3. Books and Records.

          (a) In connection with the transfer, assignment, set-over, pledge
     and conveyance set forth in Section 2.1, the Depositor agrees to record
     and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and continuation
     statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable)
     required to be filed with respect to the Series Certificate assigned by
     the Depositor hereunder, meeting the requirements of applicable


                                      2
<PAGE>

     state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary under
     applicable law to perfect the transfer, assignment, set-over, pledge and
     conveyance of the Series Certificate to the Issuer, and to deliver a
     file-stamped copy of such financing statements or other evidence of such
     filings to the Issuer on or prior to the Closing Date (excluding such
     continuation and similar statements, which shall be delivered promptly
     after filing).

          (b) In connection with the transfer, assignment, set-over, pledge
     and conveyance hereunder, the Depositor further agrees, at its own
     expense, on or prior to the Closing Date to cause the Master Trust
     Trustee to register the Issuer as the registered owner of the Series
     Certificate.

          SECTION 2.4. Holder of the Series Certificate. For so long as the
Series Certificate is pledged to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture,
the Indenture Trustee initially shall be deemed to be the holder of the Series
Certificate for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the
Series Supplement. To the extent the Series Certificate is sold or otherwise
transferred, subject to the provisions of Section 5.4 of the Indenture and
Section 16 of the Series Supplement, to a third-party in connection with the
sale or liquidation of the Owner Trust Estate pursuant to the provisions of
the Indenture, such transferee shall be deemed to be the holder of the Series
Certificate for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the
Series Supplement.

                   DEPOSITOR REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          SECTION 3.1. Representations and Warranties of Depositor. The
Depositor makes the following representations and warranties with respect to
the Series Certificate on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied in
acquiring the Series Certificate. Such representations and warranties speak as
of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but shall survive the
transfer and assignment of the Series Certificate to the Issuer and the pledge
thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

          (a) Title.  It is the intention of the Depositor (i) that the
     transfer contemplated in subsection 2.1(a) herein constitute either (A) a
     sale of the Series Certificate, or (B) a grant of a perfected security
     interest therein from the Depositor to the Issuer and (ii) to the extent
     that the Depositor retains any interest in the Series Certificate after
     the transfer contemplated by subsection 2.1(a) herein, that the grant
     contemplated in subsection 2.1(b) herein constitute a grant of a
     perfected security interest therein from the Depositor to the Indenture
     Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and that the
     beneficial interest in the title to the Series Certificate not be part of
     the debtor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition
     by or against the Depositor under any bankruptcy law. The Series
     Certificate has not been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the
     Depositor to any Person other than pursuant to this Agreement.
     Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, the
     Depositor had good and marketable title to the Series Certificate, free
     and clear of all liens and rights of others and, immediately upon the
     transfer thereof, the Issuer shall have good and marketable title to the
     Series Certificate, free and clear of all liens of rights of others or a
     first priority perfected

                                      3
<PAGE>

     security interest therein; and the transfer has been perfected, by the
     filing of appropriate financing statements pursuant to the UCC, under the
     UCC. The Depositor has no actual knowledge of any current statutory or
     other non-consensual liens to which the Series Certificate is subject.

          (b) No Consents Required. All approvals, authorizations, consents,
     orders or other actions of any Person or of any Governmental Authority
     required in connection with the execution and delivery by the Depositor
     of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, the performance by the
     Depositor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other
     Basic Document and the fulfillment by the Depositor of the terms hereof
     and thereof have been obtained or have been completed and are in full
     force and effect (other than approvals, authorizations, consents, orders
     and other actions which if not obtained or completed or in full force or
     effect would not have a material adverse effect on the Depositor or the
     Issuer or upon the collectibility of the proceeds from the Series
     Certificate or upon the ability of the Depositor to perform its
     obligations under this Agreement).

          (c) Transfers Comply. Each of (i) the transfer of the Series
     Certificate by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to the terms of this
     Agreement, (ii) the pledge of the Series Certificate by the Depositor to
     the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes
     pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) the pledge of the
     Series Certificate by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the
     terms of the Indenture, comply with the provisions of the Pooling and
     Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement relating to the transfers
     of the Series Certificate.

          (d) All Actions Taken. All actions necessary under the applicable
     UCC in any jurisdiction to be taken (i) to give the Issuer a first
     priority perfected security interest or ownership interest in the Series
     Certificate, and (ii) to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority
     perfected security interest therein (including, without limitation, UCC
     filings with the Delaware Secretary of State), in each case subject to
     any statutory or other non-consensual liens with respect to the Series
     Certificate, have been taken. The Depositor has no actual knowledge of
     any current statutory or other non-consensual liens to which the Series
     Certificate is subject.

     calculations and shall prepare for execution by the Issuer or the Owner
     Trustee or shall cause the preparation by other appropriate persons of
     all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates

                                      7
<PAGE>

     and opinions as it shall be the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee
     to keep, perform, prepare, file or deliver pursuant to any of the Basic
     Documents and at the request of the Owner Trustee shall take all
     appropriate action that it is the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee
     to take pursuant to the Basic Documents. Subject to Section 5 of this
     Agreement, and in accordance with the directions of the Owner Trustee,
     the Administrator shall administer, perform or supervise the performance
     of such other activities in connection with the Owner Trust Estate
     (including the Basic Documents) as are not covered by any of the
     foregoing provisions and as are expressly requested by the Owner Trustee
     and are reasonably within the capability of the Administrator.

          (ii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Basic
     Documents to the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible for
     promptly notifying the Indenture Trustee in the event that any
     withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer's payments (or allocations of
     income) to a Noteholder. Any such notice shall specify the amount of any
     withholding tax required to be withheld by the Owner Trustee pursuant to
     such provision.

          (iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Basic
     Documents to the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible for (A)
     performance of the duties of the Owner Trustee and the Issuer set forth
     in Sections 2.7, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 2.13(d), 5.16, 6.7, 6.10, and 10.1 of
     the Indenture with respect to, among other things, accounting and reports
     to the Certificateholder and the maintenance of certain accounts and (B)
     the preparation, execution and filing of all documents required by tax
     and securities laws relating to the Issuer.

          (iv) The Administrator may satisfy its obligations with respect to
     clauses (ii) and (iii) above by retaining, at the expense of the
     Administrator, a firm of independent public accountants (the
     "Accountants") acceptable to the Indenture Trustee which shall perform
     the obligations of the Administrator thereunder.

          (v) The Administrator shall perform the duties of the Administrator
     specified in Sections 9.2 and 9.3 of the Trust Agreement required to be
     performed in connection with the resignation or removal of the Owner
     Trustee, the duties of the Administrator specified in Section 9.5 of the
     Trust Agreement required to be performed in connection with the
     appointment and payment of co-Trustees, and any other duties expressly
     required to be performed by the Administrator under the Trust Agreement.

          (vi) In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other
     obligations under this Agreement, the Administrator may enter into
     transactions with or otherwise deal with any of its Affiliates; provided,
     however, that the terms of any such transactions or dealings shall be in
     accordance with any directions received from the Issuer and shall be, in
     the Administrator's opinion, no less favorable to the Issuer than would
     be available from unaffiliated parties.

          (vii) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the
     Administrator shall, and the Administrator hereby agrees to, execute on
     behalf of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee all such documents, reports,
     filings, instruments, certificates and opinions as it shall be the


                                      8
<PAGE>

     duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to prepare, file or deliver
     pursuant to the Basic Documents. In furtherance thereof, the Owner
     Trustee shall, on behalf of itself and of the Issuer, execute and deliver
     to the Administrator, and to each successor Administrator appointed
     pursuant to the terms hereof, one or more powers of attorney
     substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, appointing the
     Administrator the attorney-in-fact of the Owner Trustee and the Issuer
     for the purpose of executing on behalf of the Owner Trustee and the
     Issuer all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates
     and opinions.

          (viii) Non-Ministerial Matters. With respect to matters that in the
     reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial, the
     Administrator shall not take any action unless within a reasonable time
     before the taking of such action, the Administrator shall have notified
     the Owner Trustee of the proposed action and the Owner Trustee shall not
     have withheld consent or provided an alternative direction. For the
     purpose of the preceding sentence, "non-ministerial matters" shall
     include, without limitation:

                    (A) the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by the Issuer
               and the compromise of any action, claim or lawsuit brought by
               or against the Issuer (other than in connection with the
               collection of the Receivables);

                    (B) the amendment, change or modification of the Basic
               Documents;

                    (C) the appointment of successor Note Registrars,
               successor Paying Agents and successor Indenture Trustees
               pursuant to the Indenture or the appointment of successor
               Administrators or the consent to the assignment by the Note
               Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Indenture Trustee of its
               obligations under the Indenture; and

                    (D) the removal of the Indenture Trustee.

               (ix) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
          Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to, and shall
          not, (x) make any payments to the Noteholders or the
          Certificateholder under the Basic Documents, (y) sell the Owner
          Trust Estate pursuant to the Indenture other than pursuant to a
          written directive of the Indenture Trustee or (z) take any action
          that the Issuer directs the Administrator not to take on its behalf.

          (c) Reports by the Administrator. On or prior to each Transfer Date,
the Administrator will provide to the Indenture Trustee for the Indenture
Trustee to forward to each Noteholder of record, and to the Owner Trustee, a
statement setting forth (to the extent applicable) the following information
as to the Notes with respect to the related Payment Date or the period since
the previous Payment Date, as applicable:

          (i) the amount of the distribution allocable to principal of the
     Notes;

          (ii) the amount of the distribution allocable to interest on or with
     respect to the Notes;


                                      9
<PAGE>

          (iii) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Notes after
     giving effect to all payments reported under clause (i) above on such
     date; and

          (iv) the amount, if any, on deposit in the Owner Trust Spread
     Account on such Payment Date, after giving effect to all transfers and
     withdrawals therefrom and all transfers and deposits thereto on such
     Payment Date, and the amount required to be on deposit in the Owner Trust
     Spread Account on such date.

          Each amount set forth pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above will be
expressed as a dollar amount per $1,000 of the initial principal balance of
the Notes.

          (d) Owner Trust Accounts. The Administrator shall establish and
maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the
Noteholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Note Distribution Account"),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Administrator shall establish and
maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Class C
Noteholders (and, to the extent expressly provided in the Indenture, the
Certificateholder), an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Owner Trust Spread
Account", and together with the Note Distribution Account, the "Owner Trust
Accounts"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited
therein are held for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders and the
Certificateholder. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Owner Trust Accounts
and in all proceeds thereof. The Note Distribution Account shall be under the
sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders. The Owner Trust Spread Account shall be under the sole dominion
and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Class C
Noteholders (and, to the extent expressly provided in the Indenture, the
Certificateholder). If, at any time, any Owner Trust Account ceases to be an
Eligible Deposit Account, the Administrator shall notify the Indenture
Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified (or the Administrator
on its behalf) shall, within 10 Business Days, establish a new Owner Trust
Account which meets the conditions specified in the definition of Eligible
Deposit Account, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new
Owner Trust Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the
Administrator, shall make withdrawals from the Owner Trust Accounts from time
to time, in the amounts and for the purposes set forth in the Indenture.

          Funds on deposit in the Owner Trust Spread Account shall be invested
at the direction of the Administrator by the Indenture Trustee or the Paying
Agent in Permitted Investments. The Indenture Trustee shall maintain for the
benefit of the Noteholders and the Series Certificateholder possession of the
negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing such Permitted
Investments. No Permitted Investment shall be disposed of prior to its
maturity.

          To the extent so instructed by the Administrator on any Transfer
Date, the Indenture Trustee or the Paying Agent shall, if the amount on
deposit in the Owner Trust Spread Account is greater than the Required Owner
Trust Spread Account Amount for such Transfer Date, pay the amount of such
excess to the Certificateholder pursuant to the Indenture.

          SECTION 4.2. Records. The Administrator shall maintain appropriate
books of account and records relating to services performed hereunder, which
books of account and

                                      10
<PAGE>

records shall be accessible for inspection by the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Indenture Trustee and the Depositor at any time during normal business
hours.

          SECTION 4.3. [Reserved]

          SECTION 4.4. Additional Information To Be Furnished to Issuer. The
Administrator shall furnish to the Issuer from time to time such additional
information regarding the Collateral as the Issuer shall reasonably request,
including notification of Noteholders pursuant to Section 4.1(a) hereof.

          SECTION 4.5. Independence of Administrator. For all purposes of this
Agreement, the Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not
be subject to the supervision of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee with respect
to the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations
hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee, as
the case may be, the Administrator shall have no authority to act for or
represent the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in any way and shall not otherwise
be deemed an agent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee.

          SECTION 4.6. No Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement
shall (i) constitute the Administrator and either of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee as members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate,
unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) be construed to impose
any liability as such on any of them or (iii) be deemed to confer on any of
them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or
liability on behalf of the others.

          SECTION 4.7. Other Activities of Administrator. (a) Nothing herein
shall prevent the Administrator or its affiliates from engaging in other
businesses or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an
administrator for any other person or entity even though such person or entity
may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

          (b) The Administrator and its affiliates may generally engage in any
kind of business with any person party to a Basic Document, any of its
affiliates and any person who may do business with or own securities of any
such person or any of its affiliates, without any duty to account therefor to
the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

          SECTION 4.8. Net Deposits. As an administrative convenience, so long
as Chase USA is the Administrator and the Certificateholder, the Administrator
will be permitted to make the deposit of amounts with respect to the Series
Certificate for or with respect to any Monthly Period net of distributions to
be made to the Certificateholder with respect to such Monthly Period. The
Administrator, however, will account to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders as if the amounts paid to the Certificateholder
were paid pursuant to the Indenture.

     outstanding at the time of the removal, the Rating Agency Condition shall
     have first been satisfied in connection with such removal.

          (c) Subject to subsections 5.1(d) and (e), at the sole option of the

          of its duties under this Agreement and, after notice of such
          default, shall not cure such default within 10 days (or, if such
          default cannot be cured in such time, shall not give within ten days
          such assurance of cure as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
          Issuer);

               (ii) a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a
          decree or order for relief, and such decree or order shall not have
          been vacated within 60 days, in respect of the Administrator in any
          involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
          other similar law now or hereafter in effect or appoint a receiver,
          liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar

               (iii) the Administrator shall commence a voluntary case under
          any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or
          hereafter in effect, shall consent to the entry of an order for
          relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent
          to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
          custodian, sequestrator or similar official for the Administrator or

          property, shall make any general assignment for the benefit of
          creditors or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become
          due.

               (f) A successor Administrator shall execute, acknowledge and
          deliver a written acceptance of its appointment hereunder to the
          resigning Administrator and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation
          or removal of the resigning Administrator shall become effective,
          and the successor Administrator shall have all the rights, powers
          and duties of the Administrator under the Indenture. The successor
          Administrator shall mail a notice of its succession to the
          Noteholders and the Certificateholder. The resigning Administrator
          shall promptly transfer or cause to be transferred all property and

          directly or through its agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements
          entered into with any of them, and the Administrator shall not be
          liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents or attorneys if
          such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by the
          Administrator with due care.

          SECTION 5.2. Action upon Termination, Resignation or Removal.
Promptly upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement pursuant to
subsection 5.1(a) or the resignation or removal of the Administrator pursuant
to subsection 5.1 (b) or (c), respectively, the Administrator shall be
entitled to be paid all fees and reimbursable expenses accruing to it to the
date of such termination, resignation or removal. The Administrator shall

          SECTION 6.2. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended from time to
time by a written amendment duly executed and delivered by the Issuer, the
Administrator and the Depositor, with the written consent of the Indenture
Trustee and without the consent of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder,
for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or

manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder; provided,
however, that a copy thereof shall have been delivered to the Note Rating
Agencies and that such amendment will not (i) as evidenced by an Officer's
Certificate of the Depositor addressed and delivered to the Owner Trustee and

majority in the Outstanding Amount of the Notes for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions
of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of Noteholders or

that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (ii) reduce
the aforesaid percentage of the Holders of Notes which are required to consent
to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the
Outstanding Notes.

          It shall not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders pursuant to
this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or
consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the
substance thereof.

          SECTION 6.3. Protection of Title to Owner Trust.

               (a) The Depositor shall take all actions necessary and the
          Issuer shall cooperate with the Depositor, if applicable, to
          perfect, and maintain perfection of, the interests of the Issuer in
          the Series Certificate. The Depositor shall execute and file and
          cause to be executed and filed such financing statements and
          continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as
          may be required by law fully to perfect, maintain, and protect the
          interest of the Issuer in the Series Certificate and in the proceeds
          thereof and the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Owner Trust
          Estate and the proceeds thereof. The Depositor shall deliver (or

          Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document
          filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing.

               (b) The Depositor shall not change its name, identity or
          corporate structure in any manner that would, could or might make
          any financing statement or continuation statement filed in
          accordance with paragraph (a) above or otherwise seriously
          misleading within the meaning of 9-402(7) of the UCC (regardless of
          whether such a filing was ever made), unless it shall have given the

               (c) Each of the Depositor and the Administrator shall have an
          obligation to give the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at
          least 60 days' prior written notice of any relocation of its
          principal executive office if, as a result of such relocation, the
          applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any
          amendment of any previously filed financing or continuation
          statement or of any new financing statement (regardless of whether
          such a filing was ever made) and shall promptly, if applicable, file

Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to a
corporation or other organization that is a successor (by merger,
consolidation or purchase of assets) to the Administrator, provided that such
successor organization executes and delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in which such corporation or other
organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in
the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Subject to the
foregoing, this Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties
hereto.

counterparts, each of which when so executed shall together constitute but one
and the same agreement.

          SECTION 6.8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or


                                      16

unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and any

or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Association in Other Capacities. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any
obligation Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association may have in any

assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute
or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is
solely an obligation of the Issuer as a Delaware common law trust, and that no
personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any agent of the
Issuer (including the Administrator), as such, under or by reason of any of
the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Issuer contained in this
Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for
breaches by the Issuer of any such obligations, covenants or agreements,
either at common law or at equity, or by statute or constitution, of every
such agent is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration
for the execution of this Agreement.

          SECTION 6.11. Third-Party Beneficiary. Each of the Owner Trustee and
