                   ------------------------------------------------------------
the Agreement and any Supplement and the Receivables; Reassignment of
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Receivables.
-----------

     (a)  Representations and Warranties. The Transferor (x) hereby represents
          ------------------------------
and warrants, as of the date of this Agreement and the Initial Closing Date with
respect to the Receivables created on or prior to, and outstanding on, such
dates, and (y) shall be deemed to represent and warrant on each day thereafter
that any Receivable is transferred to the Trust with respect to the Receivable
or Receivables transferred on such date, that:

          (i)    the Transferor is not insolvent;

          (ii)   the Transferor is the legal and beneficial owner of all right,
     title and interest in and to each such Receivable, the Transferor has the
     full right to transfer the Receivables to the Trust and each such
     Receivable has been or will be transferred to the Trust free and clear of
     any Lien;

          (iii)  all notices to or approvals, authorizations, consents, orders
     or other actions of any Person or of any Governmental Authority required to
     be obtained, effected or given in connection with the transfer of Trust

     give has not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, a Material
     Adverse Effect; and

     Trust of all right, title and interest of the Transferor in and to the
     Receivables now existing and hereafter created and in the Related Property
     and all other Trust Assets, or constitutes a grant of a "security interest"
     (as defined in the UCC) in such property to the Trust as provided in
     Section 2.02(b), which, in the case of existing Receivables and the Related
     ---------------
     Property and all monies due or to become due with respect thereto and the
     proceeds thereof (other than proceeds (as such term is defined in the UCC)
     of returned inventory) , is enforceable upon execution and delivery of this
     Agreement, and which will be enforceable with respect to such Receivables
     and such other property hereafter created and the proceeds thereof (other
     than proceeds (as such term is defined in the UCC) of returned inventory)
     upon such creation. The Receivables Contribution and Sale

<PAGE>

     Agreement constitutes a valid sale or contribution to the Transferor of all
     of the right, title and interest of CompuCom in and to the Receivables now
     existing or hereafter created and in the Related Property and all monies
     due or to become due with respect thereto (other than proceeds (as such
     term is defined in the UCC) of returned inventory) and all proceeds (as
     defined in the UCC) of each Receivable and the Related Property.

          (B)  Upon the filing of the financing statements described in Section
                                                                        -------
     2.01 and, in the case of the Receivables hereafter created and the proceeds
     ----
     thereof (other than proceeds (as such term is defined in the UCC) of
     returned inventory), upon the creation thereof, the Trust shall have a
     first priority perfected security interest (as such term is defined in the
     UCC) in such property free and clear of any Lien or interest of any Person,
     except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement. Except as otherwise
     provided in this Agreement, neither the Transferor nor any Person claiming
     through or under the Transferor has any claim to or interest in the
     Collection Account or any Series Account. Notwithstanding anything to the
     contrary in this Agreement, the Trust shall have no interest in, to and
     under proceeds (as defined in the UCC) of returned inventory relating to
     the Receivables.

     (b)  Notice of Breach. The representations and warranties set forth in this
          ----------------
Section 2.04 shall survive the transfer and assignment of the Trust Assets to
------------
the Trust. Upon discovery by the Transferor, the Servicer or a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties
set forth in this Section 2.04, the Person discovering such breach shall give
                  ------------
written notice to the other parties hereto within three Business Days of such
discovery.

     (c)  Transfer Upon Breach of Warranty. In the event of a breach with
          --------------------------------
respect to a Receivable of any of the representations and warranties set forth
in Section 2.03(i) or 2.04(a) (other than Section 2.04(a)(iv)(A)), and (I) as a
   ---------------    -------             -----------------------
result thereof such Receivable is an Ineligible Receivable, and the exclusion of
such Receivable from the Aggregate Eligible Unpaid Balance would cause the
Aggregate Eligible Unpaid Balance to be less than the Aggregate Target
Receivables Amount, or (II) such breach has a material adverse effect on the
Investors' Interest of any Series in any Receivable, in each case as determined
without regard to any Enhancement with respect to any Series, and such material
adverse effect continues for 30 days after the earlier to occur of the discovery
of such breach by the Transferor or the Servicer or receipt of written notice of
such breach by the Transferor or the Servicer, then the Transferor shall cause
such Receivable to be removed from the Trust (a "Reconveyed Receivable"),
                                                 ---------------------
without the need of any formal or other instrument of assignment, prior to the
second Business Day next following (x) the day on which such Aggregate Target
Deficiency Amount exists or (y) such 30th day, as the case may be, by making or
causing to be made (on a pro rata basis based on their respective Target
Deficiency Amounts (if any)) a deposit in the Series Principal Collection Sub-
subaccount of each outstanding Series in immediately available funds in an
aggregate amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount for such Reconveyed
Receivable. Such deposit(s) shall be considered a payment in full of the
Reconveyed Receivable during the Settlement Period to which such

                                       8
<PAGE>

payment relates and shall be allocated in accordance with Section 4.03. Upon the
                                                          ------------
making of such a deposit in respect of a Reconveyed Receivable, the Trust shall
automatically and without further action be deemed to transfer, assign and
otherwise convey to or upon the order of the Transferor, without recourse,
representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Trust in
and to such Reconveyed Receivable, all Related Property and Collections with
respect thereto and all proceeds thereof, and to release and terminate the
security interest granted pursuant to Section 2.02 to the extent it covers such
                                      ------------
property, without the need of any formal or other instrument of assignment. On
and after the date of such removal, any defined term herein or in any applicable
Supplement, the definition of which assumes that such Receivable is not a
Reconveyed Receivable, shall thereafter be computed on the basis of the
assumption that such Receivable is no longer a Trust Asset. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trustee shall execute such
documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and UCC termination
statements as shall be prepared by the Transferor, and shall take such other
actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Transferor, at the Transferor's
expense, in connection with the conveyance of any Reconveyed Receivable pursuant
to this Section. The obligation of the Transferor to make a deposit in respect
of any Reconveyed Receivable as set forth in this Section shall constitute the
sole remedy respecting any breach of the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 2.03(i) or 2.04(a) (other than Section 2.04(a)(iv)(A)) with
         ---------------    -------             -----------------------
respect to such Receivable available to the Investor Certificateholders or the
Trustee on behalf of the Investor Certificateholders.

     (d)  Reassignment of Trust Portfolio. In the event of a breach of any of
          -------------------------------
the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.03(a), (b), (c), (d)
                                                ---------------  ---  ---  ---
or (e), or Section 2.04(a)(iv)(A), and the effect of such breach is materially
   ---     ----------------------
adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders of all Series (without regard
to any Enhancement with respect to any Series), any Control Party, by notice
then given in writing to the Transferor (with a copy thereof to the Rating
Agencies) (and to the Trustee and the Servicer if given by the
Certificateholders), may direct the Transferor to make the payment described in
the next sentence on or prior to the first Payment Date next succeeding 30 days
after receipt by the Transferor of such notice, or within such longer period as
may be specified in such notice, and the Transferor shall be obligated to make
such payment or cause such payment to be made on such Payment Date on the terms
and conditions set forth below; provided, however, that no such payment shall be
                                --------  -------
required to be made if, at such Payment Date, the representations and warranties
set forth in Section 2.03(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and Section 2.04(a)(iv)(A),
             ---------------  ---  ---  ---  ---      ----------------------
shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on such date. The
Transferor shall deposit in the Collection Master Subaccount on the date
permitted by the notice described in the preceding sentence an amount equal to
the sum of (w) the Aggregate Adjusted Invested Amount at the end of the day on
the Record Date preceding the date such deposit is to be made, less (x) (without
                                                               ----
duplication) the aggregate principal amount on deposit in any subaccounts or
sub-subaccounts of the Collection Account, plus (y) (without duplication) an
                                           ----
amount equal to interest at the applicable Certificate Rate accrued but unpaid
on the Investor Certificates of each Series through such Record Date and (z) all
amounts then due and payable to any Enhancement Provider for each outstanding
Series under the applicable Enhancement Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, the entire

                                       9
<PAGE>

amount deposited in the Collection Master Subaccount pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall be distributed to the Certificateholders on such Payment Date
pursuant to Section 12.03 and to any Enhancement Provider for each outstanding
            -------------
Series, as applicable. Payment of such deposit amount into the Collection Master
Subaccount in immediately available funds shall otherwise be considered a
payment in full of all of the Receivables. The obligation of the Transferor to
make the payment specified in this Section 2.04(d) shall constitute the sole
                                   ---------------
remedy available to any of the Enhancement Providers, the Certificateholders or
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders for a breach of the
representations and warranties contained in Section 2.03(a), (b), (c), (d), (e)
                                            ---------------  ---  ---  ---  ---
or Section 2.04(a)(iv)(A).

     Section 2.05  Covenants of the Transferor.
                   ---------------------------

     During the term of this Agreement, and until (i) the Aggregate Invested
Amount is reduced to zero, (ii) the Investor Certificateholders shall have
received all accrued interest and all accrued discount on the applicable
Certificates, (iii) all amounts owed by the Transferor pursuant to this
Agreement have been paid and (iv) all commitments of the Investor
Certificateholders (if any) to provide funding have terminated, the Transferor
covenants and agrees as follows:

          (a)  Compliance with Laws, etc. The Transferor shall duly satisfy all
               -------------------------
     obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with the
     Receivables, will maintain in effect all qualifications required under
     Requirements of Law in order to properly purchase and convey the
     Receivables and other Trust Assets and will comply in all material respects
     with all Requirements of Law applicable to it.

          (b)  Preservation of Corporate Existence. The Transferor (i) shall
               -----------------------------------
     preserve and maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises and
     privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation, and (ii) shall qualify
     and remain qualified in good standing as a foreign corporation in each
     jurisdiction where the failure to preserve and maintain such existence,
     rights, franchises, privileges and qualification would, if not remedied,
     have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (c)  Audits. At any time and from time to time during the Transferor's
               ------
     regular business hours, on reasonable prior notice (unless an Early
     Amortization Event has occurred, in which case no notice shall be required)
     and for a purpose reasonably related to this Agreement, the Transferor
     shall, in response to any request of the Trustee or any Enhancement
     Provider, permit such Person, or its agents or representatives, (i) to
     examine and make copies of and abstracts from all books, records and
     documents (including computer tapes and disks) in the possession or under
     the control of the Transferor relating to the Receivables, the Related
     Property and the related Contracts and (ii) to visit the offices and
     properties of the Transferor for the purpose of examining such materials
     and to discuss matters relating to the Receivables or the Transferor's
     performance hereunder with any of the officers or employees of the
     Transferor having knowledge thereof. Any such examination or visit made
     pursuant to this Section 2.05(c)
                      ---------------

                                      10
<PAGE>

     examination or visit except as otherwise provided in any Enhancement
     Agreement and except as set forth in any Supplement.

          (d)  Continuous Perfection; Computer Records. The Transferor shall not
               ---------------------------------------
     change its name, identity or structure in any manner which might make any
     financing or continuation statement filed hereunder misleading within the
     meaning of Section 9-402(7) of the UCC (or any other then applicable
     provision of the UCC) unless the Transferor shall have given the Trustee at
     least 90 days' prior written notice thereof and shall have taken all action
     60 days prior to making such change (or made arrangements to take such
     action substantially simultaneously with such change if it is impossible to
     take such action in advance) necessary or advisable to amend such financing
     statement or continuation statement so that it is not misleading. The
     Transferor shall not change its chief executive office or change the
     location of its principal records concerning the Receivables, the Related
     Property or the Collections from the locations specified in Section 2.03(j)
                                                                 ---------------
     unless it has given the Trustee at least 30 days' prior written notice of
     its intention to do so and has taken such action as is necessary or
     advisable to cause the interest of the Trustee in the Receivables and the
     other Trust Assets to continue to be perfected with the priority required
     by this Agreement. The Transferor will at all times maintain its principal
     executive office and any other office at which it maintains records
     relating to the Receivables and the Related Property within the United
     States of America. The Transferor will at all times, at its expense,
     indicate on its books and records (including any computer files) that all
     Receivables and Related Property have been transferred to the Trust
     pursuant to this Agreement.

     ------------
     the terms of any Receivable, or amend, modify or waive any term or
     condition of any Contracts related thereto, or permit the Servicer to do
     any of the foregoing, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

               -------

     knowledge of a Prospective Early Amortization Event, the statement of one
     of the officers of the Transferor primarily responsible for administering
     the transactions contemplated by this Agreement setting forth the details
     of such Early Amortization Event or Prospective Early Amortization Event

          (g)  Certain Documentation.  The Transferor shall cause the Servicer
               ---------------------

     interest therein) of any document evidencing or securing a Receivable and
     the related Contract.

          (h)  Assessments. The Transferor will promptly pay and discharge all
               -----------
     taxes, assessments, levies and other governmental charges imposed on it

               --------------
     and deliver to the Trustee any instruments, financing or continuation

     in the Receivables, the Related Property, the Collections and the other
     Trust Assets under the UCC or other applicable law. The Transferor shall,
     at the direction of the Servicer or the Trustee, from time to time, execute
     and deliver to the Obligors on the Receivables any bills, statements and
     letters or other writings necessary to carry out the terms and provisions
     of this Agreement and to facilitate the collection of the Receivables.

          (j)  Additional Indebtedness. The Transferor shall not create, incur,

     indebtedness hereunder, under the Receivables Contribution and Sale
     Agreement or under the Investor Certificates, (ii) other expenses incurred
     in the ordinary course of business, provided that in the case of any such
                                         --------
     indebtedness or expense, the Person to whom such indebtedness or expense

                                             --------  -------
     notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligations
     of the Transferor to the Certificateholders or any Enhancement Provider
     shall be payable solely from the Trust Assets in accordance herewith and
     that the Certificateholders and each Enhancement Provider shall not look to
     any other property or assets of the Transferor in respect of such
     obligations, and such obligations shall not constitute a claim against the
     Transferor in the event that the Trust Assets are insufficient to pay in
     full such obligations.

          (k)  No Transfer. The Transferor agrees that, except as contemplated
               -----------
     by this Agreement and the Receivables Contribution and Sale Agreement, it

     Transferor does not take such necessary and appropriate action, then, at
     the direction of any Control Party, the Trustee shall take such action.

          (n)  Separate Business. The Transferor will not permit its assets to

     one hand, and CompuCom or its Affiliates, on the other.

          (o)  Corporate Documents; Other Corporate Matters. The Transferor
               --------------------------------------------

standards than would be employed by a prudent institution in servicing
comparable receivables for its own account) and in accordance with the Credit
and Collection Policy, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or
through any party properly designated by it hereunder, to do any and all things
in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary
or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to
Section 10.01, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered (i) to instruct
-------------
the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account and any
Series Account as set forth in this Agreement or any Supplement, (ii) to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders,

permitted under and in compliance with all Requirements of Law, to commence
enforcement proceedings with respect to such Receivable, and (iii) to make any
filings, reports, notices, applications, registrations with, and to seek any
consent or authorizations from, the Securities and Exchange Commission and any
state securities authority on behalf of the Trust as may be necessary or
advisable to comply with any federal or state securities or reporting
requirements or laws.

     (b)   The Servicer shall not, and no Successor Servicer shall, be obligated
to use separate servicing procedures, offices, employees or accounts for
servicing the Receivables from the procedures, offices, employees and accounts
used by the Servicer or such Successor Servicer, as the case may be, in
connection with servicing other receivables of the same type.

     (c)   The Servicer shall maintain fidelity bond coverage or coverage under
one or more umbrella policies insuring against losses through wrongdoing of its

     (d)   Subject to the rights retained by the Trustee pursuant to Section
                                                                     -------
10.01, each of the Transferor and the Trustee hereby appoints the Servicer to

Servicer, and the Successor Servicer shall hold in trust, for the Transferor and
the Trustee in accordance with their respective interests, any and all
documents, instruments and records (including computer tapes or disks) that
evidence or relate to Receivables.

     (e)   Provided no Early Amortization Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, subject to Section 3.09, the Servicer may, in accordance with the

Credit and Collection Policy and at the direction of the Transferor, extend,
amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or amend, modify or waive
any term or condition of any Contract relating thereto. The Servicer may not
make any change to the Credit and Collection Policy (including changes in

                                      15

     (f)  Except as otherwise required by law, Dilution Factors and Collections
shall be applied to the Receivables to which they relate.

     (g)  The Servicer shall provide all reports and documentation required by
Section 3.04.

     (h)  In the event that the Transferor is unable for any reason to transfer
Receivables to the Trust in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement

such event, (A) the Servicer agrees to allocate and pay to the Trust, after the
date of such inability, all Collections with respect to Receivables transferred
to the Trust prior to the occurrence of such event; and (B) the Servicer agrees
to have such amounts applied as Collections in accordance with Section 4.03. For

Receivables as allocable to the Trust for the benefit of all Certificateholders
until the Trust shall have been allocated and paid Collections in an amount
sufficient to pay the aggregate amount of Receivables in the Trust as of the
date of occurrence of such event.

                   ----------------
     other information, exhibit, financial statement, document, book, record or
     report furnished or to be furnished by or on behalf of the Servicer to the
     Trustee, in connection with this Agreement was or will be inaccurate in any
     material respect as of the date it was or will be dated or as of the date
     so furnished, or contained or will contain any material misstatement of
     fact or omitted or will omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary
     to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading.

     In the event there is any breach of any of the representations, warranties
or covenants of the Servicer contained in Section 3.03(g), (h), (k) or (p) with
                                          ---------------  ---  ---    ---
respect to any Receivable and as a result thereof, such Receivable has been
charged off as uncollectible or the proceeds of any such Receivable are not
available to the Trust, then upon the expiration of 30 days from the earlier to
occur of the discovery of any such event by the Servicer or receipt by the
Servicer of written notice of such event given by the Trustee (such notice to be
given within three Business Days of the discovery thereof by a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee), the Servicer shall accept the transfer of all the
Receivables as to which such event relates on the terms and conditions set forth
below; provided, however, that no such removal shall be required to be made with
       --------  -------
respect to a Receivable if, within such 30-day period, such representations,
warranties or covenants with respect to such Receivable shall be true and
correct, or shall have been complied with, in all material respects. The
Servicer shall accept the transfer of a Receivable and the Related Property and
all monies due or to become due with respect thereto by making or causing to be

if applicable) in immediately available funds on or prior to the Determination
Date following the Settlement Period during which such obligation arises in an
amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount for such Receivables, which deposit
shall be allocated in accordance with Section 4.03. Upon each such transfer of a
                                      ------------
Receivable to the Servicer, the Trustee shall automatically and without further
action be deemed to transfer, assign and otherwise convey to or upon the order
of the Servicer, without recourse, representation or warranty, all right, title
and interest of the Trust in and to such Receivable, the Related Property and
all monies due or to become due with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof,

2.02(b) to the extent it covers such property; and such Receivable shall be

treated by the Trustee as collected in full as of the Settlement Period to which
such Transfer Deposit Amount relates. The Trustee shall execute such documents
and instruments of transfer or assignment as shall be prepared by the Servicer,
and shall take such other actions as shall be reasonably requested by the
Servicer, at the Servicer's expense, to effect the conveyance of any Receivable
pursuant to this Section. The obligation of the Servicer to accept the transfer

due shall constitute the sole remedy respecting any breach of the
representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Section 3.03(g), (h), (k)
                                                       ---------------  ---  ---

                   -----------------------------------

     (a)   Daily Records. Upon reasonable prior notice by the Trustee, the

Servicer for inspection by the Trustee on a Business Day during the Servicer's

     activity in the Receivables for the prior Business Day.

           (iii)   Upon discovery of any error or receipt of notice of any error
     in any Daily Report, the Servicer, the Transferor and the Trustee shall
     arrange to confer and shall agree upon any adjustments necessary to correct
     any such errors. Until correction of such error, the Servicer or the
     Trustee, as the case may be, shall retain all Collections (or such lesser
     amount as the Trustee and the Servicer shall agree to be necessary to cover
     any error) in the Collection Account. Unless the Trustee has received
     actual notice of any error in a Daily Report, the Trustee may rely on such
     Daily Report for all purposes hereunder.

     (c)   Settlement Statement. On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall,
           --------------------
or if CompuCom is not the Servicer, the Successor Servicer shall with

respects fully performed or has caused to be fully performed all of its
obligations under this Agreement and each Supplement throughout such year, or,
if there has been a default in the performance of any such obligation,
specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status

     Section 3.06  Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report.
                   -------------------------------------------------------

     (a)  On or before April 30 of each calendar year, beginning with April 30,
2000, the Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent
public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or the
Transferor) to furnish a report (which report shall cover the period from
December 31 of the prior calendar year to and including December 31 of the
current calendar year) to the Trustee, each Enhancement Provider and each Rating
Agency to the effect that they have applied certain procedures agreed upon with
the Servicer and reviewed certain documents and records relating to the
servicing of Receivables with respect to the Servicer's compliance with the
terms and conditions set forth in Sections 3.04, 3.05, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.06,
                                  -------------  ----  ----  ----  ----  ----
4.07 and 12.01 of this Agreement (including any Supplement amending or
----     -----
superseding those Sections with respect to a Series), which report shall include
all findings of such accountants.

     (b)  On or before April 30 of each calendar year, beginning with April 30,
2000, the Servicer shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent
public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or the
Transferor), or other Person acceptable to each Control Party, to furnish a
report to the Trustee and each Enhancement Provider to the effect that they have
compared the mathematical calculations of each amount set forth in the
Settlement Statements forwarded by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.04(c)
                                                            ---------------
during the period covered by such report (which shall be the period from
December 31 of the prior calendar year to and including December 31 of the
current calendar year) with the Servicer's computer reports which were the
source of such amounts and that on the basis of such comparison, such
accountants have found that such amounts are in agreement, except for such
exceptions as they believe to be immaterial and such other exceptions as shall
be set forth in such statement. The Servicer shall promptly forward a copy of
such report to each Rating Agency.

     (c)  In the event such independent public accountants require the Trustee
to agree to the procedures to be performed by such firm in any of the reports
required to be prepared pursuant to this Section 3.06, the Servicer shall direct
                                         ------------
the Trustee, in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the
Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive

                                      25
<PAGE>

reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and the Trustee has not made any
independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or
liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such
procedures.

     Section 3.07  Tax Treatment. The Transferor has entered into this
                   -------------
Agreement, and the Investor Certificates have been (or will be) issued, with the
intention that such Investor Certificates will qualify under applicable tax law
as indebtedness of the Transferor, secured by the Receivables. The Transferor,
the Servicer, each Investor Certificateholder by acceptance of its Investor
Certificate and each Certificate Owner by acquiring an interest in an Investor
Certificate agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the
treatment of, the Investor Certificates (or beneficial interest therein) as
indebtedness of the Transferor, for purposes of federal, state and local income
or franchise taxes and for any other tax imposed on or measured by income. In
accordance with the foregoing, the Transferor agrees that it will report its
income for such federal, state, and local income or franchise taxes, or for
purposes of any other taxes on or measured by income, on the basis that it is
the owner of the Receivables. Each Investor Certificateholder and each Holder of
the Transferor Certificate, by acceptance of its Certificate, and each
Certificate Owner, by acquisition of a beneficial interest in an Investor
Certificate, agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 3.07. Nothing
                                                         ------------
contained in the foregoing or elsewhere in this Agreement shall, however, be
deemed to prohibit the Transferor from making any election that may in the
future be available to it under the Internal Revenue Code to have the Trust or
any Series treated as a "financial asset securitization investment trust" (or
similar entity), so long as prior to the effectiveness of that election the
Transferor delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
election (a) will not cause the Trust to be classified, for Federal income tax
purposes, as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a
corporation and (b) will not cause or constitute an event in which gain or loss
would be recognized by any Investor Certificateholder.

     Section 3.08  Notices to Transferor. The Servicer shall deliver or make
                   ---------------------
available to the Transferor each certificate and report required to be prepared,
forwarded or delivered pursuant to Sections 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06.
                                   -------------  ----     ----

     Section 3.09  Dilution Factors. If the Unpaid Balance of any Eligible
                   ----------------
Receivable is adjusted by the Servicer for any Dilution Factors (which Dilution
Factors shall only be determined in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy), the Aggregate Eligible Unpaid Balance with respect to the Business Day
following the Business Day on which such adjustment takes place will be reduced
by the amount of the adjustment. In the event that such adjustment would cause
the Aggregate Eligible Unpaid Balance to be less than the Aggregate Target
Receivables Amount, the Transferor shall make or cause to be made by the close
of business on the Business Day following the day on which such adjustment
occurs a deposit in immediately available funds, (on a pro rata basis based on
the respective Target Deficiency Amounts of each Series, if any), in an
aggregate amount equal to such deficiency into the Series Principal Collection
Sub-subaccount for each outstanding Series (such deposit being referred to as a
"Dilution Factor Payment").

Receivables.

                        AND APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS

     Section 4.01  Rights of Certificateholders. Each Series shall evidence an
                   ----------------------------
interest in the Trust Assets representing the right to receive Collections and
other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in this Article IV to be
                                                                ----------
deposited in the Collection Account or Series Accounts or paid to or on behalf
of the Investor Certificateholders (such interest for each Series, collectively,
the "Investors' Interest"). The Transferor Certificate shall represent the

remaining interest in the Trust Assets, including the right to receive
Collections and other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in this
Article IV to be paid to or on behalf of the Holder of the Transferor
----------
Certificate (the "Transferor's Interest"); provided, however, that such

certificate shall not represent any interest in the Collection Account (except
to the extent provided in this Agreement) and neither the Transferor nor the
Servicer shall have the right to withdraw funds from the Collection Account or
to receive funds on deposit therein except as and when provided by this
Agreement.

     Section 4.02  Establishment of Collection Account.
                   -----------------------------------

     (a)   The Collection Account. The Trustee, for the benefit of
           ----------------------
Certificateholders and the Enhancement Providers (if any), shall establish and
maintain or shall cause to be established and maintained with an Eligible
Institution in the name of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, a segregated
trust account (the "Collection Account"), bearing a designation clearly
                    ------------------
indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders and the Enhancement Providers (if any). The Collection
Account (and any subaccounts and sub-subaccounts thereof) shall be under the
sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders and the Enhancement Providers (if any). If, at any time, the
institution holding the Collection Account (and any subaccounts and sub-
subaccounts thereof) ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Trustee shall
within 10 Business Days of a Responsible Officer learning of such event
establish a new Collection Account meeting the conditions specified above with
an Eligible Institution, transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new
Collection Account and from the date such new Collection Account is established,
it shall be the "Collection Account." Neither the Transferor nor the Servicer,
nor any Person claiming by, through or under the Transferor or Servicer, shall
have any right, title or interest in, or any right to withdraw any amount from,
the Collection Account (and any subaccounts and sub-subaccounts thereof) except
to the extent provided in this Agreement. Pursuant to the authority granted to
the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.01(a), the Servicer shall have the revocable
                         ---------------
power to instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the
Collection Account (and any subaccounts and

                                      27
<PAGE>

sub-subaccounts thereof) for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer's, and,
where applicable, the Trustee's duties hereunder. The Trustee shall divide the
Collection Account into subaccounts and sub-subaccounts. The first of such
subaccounts shall be a subaccount established for the benefit of
Certificateholders of all Series (the "Collection Master Subaccount"). The
                                       ----------------------------
Trustee shall also establish individual subaccounts of the Collection Account
for each outstanding Series (each, respectively, a "Series Collection
                                                    -----------------
Subaccount" and, collectively, the "Series Collection Subaccounts") and for the
----------                          -----------------------------
Transferor (the "Transferor Collection Subaccount"). For administrative purposes
                 --------------------------------
only, the Trustee shall establish or cause to be established for each Series, so
long as such Series is an outstanding Series, sub-subaccounts of the Series
Collection Subaccount with respect to such Series (respectively, the "Series
                                                                      ------
Principal Collection Sub-subaccount" and "Series Non-Principal Collection Sub-
-----------------------------------       ------------------------------------
subaccount"). The Trustee may also establish for each Series any additional
----------
Series Collection Sub-subaccounts which are set forth in the related Supplement.

     (b)   Administration of the Collection Account. Funds on deposit in the
           ----------------------------------------
Collection Account (and any subaccounts or sub-subaccounts thereof) shall, at
the direction of the Servicer, be invested by the Trustee in Eligible
Investments that will mature, or that are payable or redeemable upon demand of
the holder thereof, so that such funds will be available on or before the
Payment Date next following the date of the Trust's investment therein (other
than investment earnings and amounts deposited pursuant to Article XII, which
                                                           -----------
shall at the direction of the Servicer be invested by the Trustee in Eligible
Investments that will mature on or before the Business Day next following the
date of the Trust's investment therein). All interest and investment earnings
(net of losses and investment expenses) ("Investment Earnings") on funds in the
                                          -------------------
Collection Account (and any subaccounts or sub-subaccounts thereof) shall be
paid by the Trustee to the Transferor on each Payment Date, unless an Early
Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing, in which event such
Investment Earnings shall be retained in the Collection Account and be treated
as Collections. Any request by the Servicer to invest funds on deposit in the
Collection Account (and any subaccounts or sub-subaccounts thereof) shall be in
writing and shall certify that the requested investment is an Eligible
Investment which matures at or prior to the time required hereby. If the Trustee
does not receive written direction from the Servicer, any such amounts on
deposit shall be invested in investments of the type described in clause (iv) of
the definition of Eligible Investments. The Trustee shall maintain possession of
the negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing the Eligible
Investments described in clause (a) of the definition thereof from the time of
                         ----------
purchase thereof until maturity. The Servicer will have the revocable power to
instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection
Account (and any subaccounts or sub-subaccounts thereof) for the purpose of
carrying out the Servicer's or the Trustee's duties under this Agreement.
Neither the Transferor nor the Servicer shall deposit any of their funds in the
Collection Account (and any subaccounts or sub-subaccounts thereof) at any time
except for funds unconditionally required to be paid on account of the purchase
price of Certificates or Receivables pursuant to this Agreement or as specified
in any Supplement.

                                          ---------------------------
     the excess, if any, of (I) the aggregate amount of Recoveries received
     during the related Settlement Period over (II) the aggregate Unpaid Balance
     of Receivables that became Writeoffs during the related Settlement Period.

     (ii)  If, on any Special Allocation Determination Date, any of the
Allocable Charged-Off Amount or the Allocable Recoveries Amount is greater than
zero for the related Settlement Period, the Trustee shall (in accordance with
written directions received pursuant to Section 3.04 above) make (A) a pro rata

amount and (B) an allocation to the Transferor Certificate of the remaining
portion of each such positive amount.

     (iii) With respect to each portion of the Allocable Charged-Off Amount and

applicable Supplement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided

     Section 6.03  Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
                   -----------------------------------------------------

     (a)   The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the office or agency to be
maintained by a transfer agent and registrar (which may be the Trustee) (the
"Transfer Agent and Registrar") a register (the "Certificate Register") in
 ----------------------------                    --------------------
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Transfer
Agent and Registrar shall provide for the registration of each Series of the
Investor Certificates and the Transferor Certificate and of transfers and
exchanges of such Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee is hereby
initially appointed Transfer Agent and Registrar for the purpose of registering
each Series of Investor Certificates and of registering transfers and exchanges
of the Investor Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall be

                                      33
<PAGE>

permitted to resign as Transfer Agent and Registrar upon 30 days' written notice
to the Transferor and the Servicer; provided, however, that such resignation
                                    --------  -------
shall not be effective and the Trustee shall continue to perform its duties as
Transfer Agent and Registrar until the Servicer has appointed a successor
Transfer Agent and Registrar acceptable to the Transferor. The Trustee shall
register the Transferor Certificate in the name of the Transferor.

     Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Investor Certificate of
a Series at any office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar maintained
for such purpose, the Transferor shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more Investor Certificates of such Series in authorized
denominations (or commitment percentages or commitment amounts) evidencing the
same aggregate Undivided Interests; provided, however, that any Investor
                                    --------  -------
Certificate of any Series sold pursuant to the Private Placement Exemption shall
satisfy the conditions provided in Section 6.03(d) prior to such registration of
                                   ---------------
transfer.

     At the option of an Investor Certificateholder, Investor Certificates of a
Series may be exchanged for one or more Investor Certificates of such Series of
authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Undivided Interests, upon
surrender of the Investor Certificates to be exchanged at any office or agency
of the Transfer Agent and Registrar maintained for such purpose. Whenever any
Investor Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Transferor shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Investor
Certificates which the Investor Certificateholder making the exchange is
entitled to receive. Every Investor Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Transfer Agent and Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder thereof or
its attorney duly authorized in writing.

     No service charge shall be imposed for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Investor Certificates, but the Transfer Agent and Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of
Investor Certificates.

     All Investor Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be canceled by the Transfer Agent and Registrar and disposed of
in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee or retained by the Trustee in accordance
with its standard retention policy.

     (b)   Neither the Transferor Certificate nor any interest represented
thereby shall be sold, transferred, assigned, exchanged, pledged or otherwise
conveyed.

     (c)   The Transfer Agent and Registrar will maintain at its expense in
Minneapolis, Minnesota, an office or offices or agency or agencies where
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange.

     (d)  Unless otherwise specified in the related Supplement, until such time
as the Trustee shall receive an Officer's Certificate of the Transferor
certifying that a Series of Investor Certificates has been registered under the
Securities Act and qualified under all applicable state securities laws, neither
the Trustee nor the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall register a transfer of
any Investor Certificates of such Series or any interest therein unless such
transfer is to be made in a transaction that does not require such registration
or qualification. Unless otherwise specified in the related Supplement, until
such time as such Series of Investor Certificates shall be registered pursuant
to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act, such Series of
Investor Certificates shall bear a legend to the effect set forth in the
preceding sentence. Unless otherwise specified in the related Supplement, in the
event that registration of a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an
exemption of the transfer from the Securities Act, the Trustee shall require, in
order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, the transferee to deliver to the Trustee and the
Transferor an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Transferor and
the Trustee that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and would not subject the
Trust to the registration requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. Any such Opinion of Counsel shall be obtained at the expense of the
prospective transferor or transferee, and not at the expense of the Trustee or
the Transferor, and shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Transferor prior
to or contemporaneously with any such transfer. Neither the Transferor nor the
Trustee shall be obligated to register any Series of Investor Certificates under
any state securities laws or under the Securities Act or to take any other
action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of
such Series without registration.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event
shall an Investor Certificate of any Series be transferred to a Benefit Plan,
unless permitted pursuant to the related Supplement. Each Holder of an Investor
Certificate of any such Series, by its acceptance thereof, represents and
warrants that it is not a Benefit Plan and is not acquiring or holding its
Investor Certificates by, with or on behalf of plan assets of any Benefit Plan,
unless permitted pursuant to the related Supplement. By acquiring any interest
in an Investor Certificate, the applicable Certificate Owner or Owners shall be
deemed to have represented and warranted that it or they are not Benefit Plans
and are not acquiring such interest by, with or on behalf of plan assets of any
Benefit Plan, unless permitted pursuant to the related Supplement.

     In connection with any transfer of an Investor Certificate, unless
otherwise specified in the related Supplement, each transferee shall execute and
deliver to the Trustee a representation letter substantially in the form of
Exhibit 6.03(d).

    Section 6.04 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any
                 -------------------------------------------------
mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar, or the
Transfer Agent and Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any such Certificate and (b) there is delivered to

or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,

                                      35

then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Transferor shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
tenor and aggregate Undivided Interest, if applicable. In connection with the
issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 6.04, the Trustee or the
                                           ------------
Transfer Agent and Registrar may require the payment by the Certificateholder of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Trustee and Transfer Agent and Registrar) connected therewith.
Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall constitute
                                                  ------------
complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found
at any time.

     Section 6.05 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a
                  ---------------------
Certificate for registration of transfer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the Person
in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for
the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01 and for all
                                                   ------------
other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by
any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that in determining whether the
                            --------  -------
holders of the requisite Undivided Interests have given any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Certificates
owned by the Transferor, the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof, shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining
whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Certificates which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded.
Certificates so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be
disregarded and may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the
satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so to act with respect to such
Certificates and that the pledgee is not the Transferor, the Servicer or an
affiliate (as defined above) thereof.

Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the
Collection Account for the purpose of making distributions referred to above.
The Trustee may revoke such power and remove any Paying Agent if the Trustee
determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to
perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Paying
Agent shall initially be the Trustee. The Paying Agent shall be permitted to
resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days' written notice to the Trustee, the Servicer
and the Transferor; provided, however, that such resignation shall not be
                    --------  -------
effective and the Paying Agent shall continue to perform its duties until the
Trustee has appointed, and such appointment has been accepted by, a successor
Paying Agent. The Trustee

the Applicants desire to communicate with other Investor Certificateholders of

     (a)  The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents with respect
to the Certificates which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee in
authenticating the Certificates in connection with the issuance, delivery,
registration of transfer, exchange or repayment of the Certificates. Whenever
reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the
Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be
deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating
agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by
an authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the

act on the part of the Trustee or such authenticating agent.

     (c)  An authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written
notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Transferor. The Trustee may at
any time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent by giving notice of
termination to such authenticating agent and to the Transferor. Upon receiving
such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time
an authenticating agent shall cease to be acceptable to the Trustee or the
Transferor, the Trustee promptly may appoint a successor authenticating agent.
Any successor authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent.
No successor authenticating agent shall be appointed unless acceptable to the
Trustee and the Transferor.

     (d)  The Servicer agrees to pay, on behalf of the Trust, to each
authenticating agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services
under this Section 6.08.

which shall on the date of transfer be held by the Servicer for deposit, or
which have been deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account, or which

Property, and in assisting the Successor Servicer; and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall assist and cooperate with the
Successor Servicer in transferring all material and data (other than software)
used by the Servicer and necessary to service the Receivables effectively in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     The Servicer, at its expense, will license to the Trustee all computer
software used by the Servicer and necessary to service the Receivables
effectively in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to the extent
permitted by the underlying agreements if such software is licensed from an
unrelated third party, provided that such license shall not take effect unless a
                       --------
Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing. The Servicer shall use its best
efforts, so long as a Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to
obtain sublicenses of all third-party computer software used by the Servicer and
necessary to service the Receivables effectively in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.

     To the extent that compliance with this Section 10.01 shall require the

Servicer and the Trustee shall enter into such customary licensing and
confidentiality agreements as the Servicer shall reasonably deem necessary to

Servicer pursuant to this Section 10.01 and Section 10.02 shall be paid by the

                    -------------------------------------------------

pursuant to Section 10.01, the Servicer shall continue to perform all servicing
            -------------
functions under this Agreement and any Supplement until the date specified in
the Termination Notice or as otherwise specified by the Trustee in writing or,
if no such date is specified in such Termination Notice, or as otherwise
specified by the Trustee, until a date mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and
Trustee. After the giving of a Termination Notice, the Trustee shall as promptly
as possible appoint an Eligible Servicer satisfactory to each Control Party as a
successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer"), provided that (i) if any of the
                         ------------------    --------

Agency Condition shall have occurred with respect to such appointment and (ii)
such Successor Servicer shall have accepted its appointment by a written
assumption and agreement to perform all of the duties, obligations and
liabilities of the Servicer hereunder in a form acceptable to the Trustee. In
the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed or has not accepted
its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, or upon
the occurrence of the events specified in Section 8.05, the Trustee without
                                          ------------
further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer. The
Trustee may delegate any of its servicing obligations to an Affiliate. The
Trustee may employ subservicers with respect to its servicing obligations
provided that the Trustee shall remain responsible for its obligations as
Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall, if it is
legally unable to act as Successor Servicer or desires that a Person other than
itself be appointed as Successor Servicer pursuant to this Section 10.02(a),

Eligible Servicer. The Trustee shall promptly give notice to each Rating Agency

such appointment.

     (b)  Upon its appointment, the Successor Servicer shall be the successor in
all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions under this
Agreement and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions
hereof, and all references in this Agreement and any Supplement to the Servicer
shall be deemed to refer to the Successor Servicer except for the references in
Sections 3.03 (to the extent provided therein), 8.04 and 11.05 which shall

continue to refer to CompuCom.

     (c)  Prior to any Service Transfer, the Trustee will seek to obtain bids
from Eligible Servicers and shall be permitted to appoint any Eligible Servicer
satisfactory to each Control Party submitting such a bid as a Successor Servicer
for servicing compensation not in excess of the Servicing Fee permitted for a
Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 3.02. In the event that the Trustee fails
                               ------------
to obtain a satisfactory bid from an Eligible Servicer, then the Transferor
shall have the option, in accordance with and upon satisfaction of the terms of
Section 12.02(a), to purchase each Series of Investor Certificates.
----------------

     (d)  All authority and power granted to the Successor Servicer under this
Agreement shall automatically cease and terminate upon termination of the Trust
pursuant to Section 12.01, and shall pass to and be vested in the Transferor
            -------------
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Transferor is hereby
authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Successor
Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments,
and to do and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to
effect the purposes of such transfer of servicing rights. The Successor Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Transferor in effecting the termination of the
responsibilities and rights of the Successor Servicer to conduct servicing of
the Receivables and the Related Property, including all authority over
Collections then held by the Successor Servicer or which shall thereafter be
received by the Successor Servicer. The Successor Servicer shall promptly
transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the Transferor in
such electronic form as the Transferor may reasonably request and shall promptly
transfer all other records, correspondence and documents to the

                                      52
<PAGE>

Transferor in the manner and at such times as the Transferor shall reasonably
request. To the extent that compliance with this Section 10.02 shall require the
                                                 -------------
Successor Servicer to disclose to the Transferor information of any kind which
the Successor Servicer deems to be confidential, the Transferor shall be
required to enter into such customary licensing and confidentiality agreements
as the Successor Servicer shall deem necessary to protect its interests.

     Section 10.03 Notification to Certificateholders. Upon the occurrence of
                   ----------------------------------
any Servicer Default, the Servicer shall give prompt written notice thereof to
the Trustee and each Enhancement Provider and, upon receipt of such written
notice, the Trustee shall give notice to each Rating Agency and the Investor
Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register. Upon any termination or appointment of a Successor Servicer pursuant
to this Article X, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the
        ---------
Investor Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the
Certificate Register.

     Section 10.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. A Control Party may waive any
                   -----------------------
default by the Servicer or the Transferor in the performance of their
obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in the failure to
make any required deposits or payments of interest or principal with respect to
any Series of Certificates, with respect to the Series for which such Person is
the Control Party. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall
cease to exist, and any default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the
extent expressly so waived. The Servicer shall promptly notify each Rating
Agency of any such waiver promptly after the granting of such waiver.

     Section 11.01 Duties of Trustee. (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence
                   -----------------
of a Servicer Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
knowledge and after the curing of all Servicer Defaults which may have occurred,
undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Agreement. If to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee a Servicer Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived),
the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement or any Supplement, as the case may be, and use the same degree of care
and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such prudent person's own affairs.

     (b)  The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement or any Supplement, shall

                                      53

examine them to determine whether they substantially conform to the requirements
of this Agreement or any Supplement. The Trustee shall give prompt written
notice to each Control Party of any material lack of conformity of any such
instrument to the applicable requirements of this Agreement or any Supplement
discovered by the Trustee which would entitle any Control Party to take any
action pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement.

     (c)  Subject to Section 11.01(a), no provision of this Agreement or any
                     ----------------
Supplement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct; provided, however, that:
            --------  -------

          (i)   The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of
     judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible
     Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was
     negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

          (ii)  The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any
     action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
     accordance with, unless otherwise specified herein, the direction of the
     Transferor, the Servicer, any Enhancement Provider or any Control Party
     relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
     remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
     upon the Trustee, under this Agreement or any Supplement;

          (iii) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure
     by the Servicer to comply with the obligations of the Servicer referred to
     in clause (a), (b) or (c) of Section 10.01, or of the occurrence of any
        ----------  ---    ---    -------------
     Early Amortization Event, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
     obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives written
     notice of such failure from the Servicer, any Enhancement Provider or any
     Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided Interests aggregating
     not less than 10% of the Invested Amount of any Series adversely affected
     thereby; and

          (iv)  Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Default of which a
     Responsible Officer has knowledge, and after the curing or waiver of such
     Servicer Defaults that may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the
     Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this
     Agreement and any Supplements, the Trustee shall not be liable except for
     the performance of such duties and obligations as shall be specifically set
     forth in this Agreement and any Supplement, no implied covenants or
     obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any Supplement against the
     Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the
     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 Trustee and, if specifically required to be
     furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any Supplement,
     conforming to the requirements of this Agreement or such Supplement.

     (d)  The 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
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and
none of the provisions contained in this Agreement or any Supplement shall in
any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of
performance of, any obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement or any
Supplement except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the
successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of,
the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any Supplement.

     (e)  Except for actions expressly authorized by this Agreement or any
Supplement, the Trustee shall take no action reasonably likely to impair the
interests of the Trust in any Receivable now existing or hereafter created or to
impair the value of any Receivable now existing or hereafter created.

     (f)  Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or any Supplement,
the Trustee shall have no power to vary the corpus of the Trust.

     (g)  If, to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the
Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall fail to perform any
obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day required to be
performed by the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case
may be, under this Agreement, the Trustee shall be obligated as soon as possible
after such Responsible Officer obtains knowledge thereof and receives
appropriate records, if any, to perform such obligation, duty or agreement in
the manner so required.

     (h)  Except as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, any
action, suit or proceeding brought in respect of one or more particular Series
shall have no effect on the Trustee's rights, duties and obligations hereunder
with respect to any one or more Series not the subject of such action, suit or
proceeding.

     Section 11.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee. Except as otherwise
                   -------------------------------------
provided in Section 11.01:
            -------------

          (a)  The Trustee may rely on and shall be protected in acting on, or
     in refraining from acting in accordance with, any resolution, Officer's
     Certificate, 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 to it pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement
     by the proper party or parties.

          (b)  The Trustee may consult with counsel and other experts deemed
     appropriate by the Trustee and any advice from such counsel or Opinion of
     Counsel or written advice from such other experts shall be full and
     complete authorization and

                                      55
<PAGE>

     protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it
     hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of
     Counsel.

          (c)  The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
     rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or any Supplement, or to
     institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto
     or any Supplement, at the request, order or direction of any Person or
     Persons, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any Supplement,
     unless such Person or Persons shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
     security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may
     be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however,
     relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of a Servicer
     Default (which has not been cured) of which a Responsible Officer has
     knowledge, to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
     Agreement or any Supplement, and to use the same degree of care and skill
     in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
     circumstances in the conduct of such prudent person's own affairs.

          (d)  The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken,
     suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized
     or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this
     Agreement or any Supplement.

          (e)  The Trustee shall not be bound to 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 so to do by a
     Control Party or the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing Undivided
     Interests aggregating more than 50% of the Invested Amount of any Series
     which could be adversely affected if the Trustee does not perform such
     acts; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to
           --------  -------
     the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by
     it in the making of such investigation shall be, in the opinion of the
     Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to
     it by the terms of this Agreement, the 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 Servicer or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be reimbursed by the
     Servicer upon demand.

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

          (g)  Except as may be required by Section 11.01(a) hereof, the Trustee
                                            ----------------
     shall not be required to make any initial or periodic examination of any
     documents or records related to the Receivables for the purpose of
     establishing the presence or absence of

                                      56
<PAGE>

     defects, the compliance by the Transferor or the Servicer with their
     representations and warranties or for any other purpose.

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

          (i)  The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken,
     suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized
     or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this
     Agreement or any Supplement.

     Section 11.03 Trustee Not Liable for Recitals in Certificates. The Trustee
                   -----------------------------------------------
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the recitals contained herein
and in the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the
Certificates). Except as set forth in Section 11.15, the Trustee makes no
                                      -------------
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
Supplement or of the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication
on the Certificates) or of any Receivable or related document. The Trustee shall
not be accountable for the use or application by the Transferor of any of the
Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or
application of any funds paid to the Transferor in respect of the Receivables or
deposited in the Collection Account or other accounts now or hereafter
established to effectuate the transactions contemplated herein and in accordance
with the terms hereof.

     The Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as
to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable by
the Transferor or the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or any Supplement or
the eligibility of any Receivable for purposes of this Agreement or any
Supplement. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or
continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect
or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it
hereunder (unless the Trustee shall have become the Successor Servicer) or to
prepare or file any Securities and Exchange Commission filing for the Trust or
to record this Agreement or any Supplement.

     Section 11.04 Trustee May Own Certificates, Etc. Each of the Trustee, the
                   ---------------------------------
Transferor, the Servicer, and each of such Person's respective Affiliates in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Investor
Certificates; provided, that any Investor Certificates so held shall not be
              --------
entitled to participate in any decisions made or instructions given to the
Trustee by the Certificateholders as a group. The Trustee (and its Affiliates)
may enter into banking and trustee relationships with the Transferor and the
Servicer, and may deal with the Transferor and the Servicer (and their
respective Affiliates) in banking and trustee transactions, with the same rights
as it would have if it were not the Trustee.

     Section 11.05 The Servicer to Pay Trustee's (and Paying Agent's) Fees and
                   -----------------------------------------------------------
Expenses. The Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee (and the
--------
Paying Agent if applicable)

                                      57
<PAGE>

from time to time, and the Trustee (and the Paying Agent if applicable) shall be
entitled to receive, reasonable compensation as set forth in a fee letter
between the Servicer and the Trustee (which shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust)
for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trust hereby created and
in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder or
under any Supplement of the Trustee (or the Paying Agent if applicable), and,
subject to Section 8.04, the Servicer will pay or reimburse the Trustee (and the
           ------------
Paying Agent if applicable) upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee (or the Paying Agent
if applicable) in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement or any
Supplement (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and
counsel) except as set forth in a fee letter between the Servicer and the
Trustee any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its fraud,
gross negligence, breach of fiduciary duty or willful misconduct and except as
provided in the following sentence. If the Trustee is appointed Successor
Servicer pursuant to Section 10.02, the provisions of this Section 11.05 shall
                     -------------                         -------------
not apply to expenses, disbursements and advances made or incurred by the
Trustee in its capacity as Successor Servicer, which shall be covered out of the
Servicing Fee. The provisions of this paragraph and Sections 8.04 and 8.09 shall
                                                    -------------     ----
survive the termination of the Trust and the resignation or removal of the
Trustee.

     Section 11.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee hereunder
                   ------------------------------------
shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws
of the United States or any state thereof, including the District of Columbia,
authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 and be rated at least P1 by Moody's
or at least A-1 by Standard & Poor's or be approved by the Rating Agency and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority. If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then
for the purpose of this Section 11.06, the combined capital and surplus of such
                        -------------
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 11.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
-------------
effect specified in Section 11.07.
                    -------------

     Section 11.07  Resignation or Removal of Trustee.
                    ---------------------------------

     (a)  The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust
hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Transferor and the
Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Servicer (with the
consent of each Control Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld)
shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate,
one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one
copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning

                                      58
<PAGE>

Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor trustee.

     (b)  If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 11.06 hereof and shall fail to resign after
                       -------------
written request therefor by the Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee shall be
legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the
Servicer may remove the Trustee with the consent of each Control Party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee.

     (c)  Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of successor
trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 11.07 shall not become
                                                  -------------
effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided
in Section 11.08 hereof.

                                                         -------------
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Transferor and to its predecessor
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and
such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder and under any Supplement with like effect as if originally
named as Trustee herein. The predecessor Trustee shall deliver to the successor
trustee all documents or copies thereof, at the expense of the Servicer, and
statements held by it hereunder; and the Transferor and the predecessor Trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may
reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the
successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. The Servicer
shall immediately give notice to the Rating Agency upon the appointment of a
successor trustee.

     (b)  No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 11.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall
-------------
be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.06 hereof.
                                    -------------

     (c)  Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in
this Section 11.08 hereof, such successor trustee shall mail notice of such
     -------------
succession hereunder to all Certificateholders at their addresses as shown in

without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

     Section 11.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
                   ---------------------------------------------

     (a)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any
Supplement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of
any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the
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
Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject
to the other provisions of this Section 11.10, such powers, duties, obligations,
                                -------------
rights and trusts as the 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 11.06 and no notice to
                                         -------------
Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 11.08 hereof. Any such appointment of a co-
                        -------------
trustee shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties under this Agreement.

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

          (i)   All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
     upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
     performed by the 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 Trustee joining in such act),
     except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any
     particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or
     as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the 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
     Assets 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 Trustee;

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

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

     (c)  Any notice, request or other writing given to the 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

                                      60
<PAGE>

of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall
refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article XI. Each separate
                                                   ----------
trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be
vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment,
either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein,
subject to all the provisions of this Agreement or any Supplement, specifically
including every provision of this Agreement or any Supplement relating to the
conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee.
Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given
to the Servicer.

     (d)  Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the
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 to this
Agreement or any Supplement 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 Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

     Section 11.11 Tax Returns. No federal income tax return shall be filed on
                   -----------
behalf of the Trust unless either (i) the Trustee or the Servicer shall receive
an Opinion of Counsel based on a change in applicable law occurring after the
date hereof that the Code requires such a filing or (ii) the Internal Revenue
Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return. In the
event the Trust shall be required to file tax returns, the Servicer shall
prepare or shall cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by
the Trust and shall remit such returns to the Trustee for signature at least
five days before such returns are due to be filed; the Trustee shall promptly
sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Servicer and
such returns shall be filed by the Servicer. Subject to the responsibilities of
the Trustee set forth in Section 5.02(b), the Servicer in accordance with
                         ---------------
Section 5.02(b) shall also prepare or shall cause to be prepared all tax
---------------
information required by law to be distributed to Investor Certificateholders.
The Trustee, upon request, will furnish the Servicer with all such information
known to the Trustee as may be reasonably required in connection with the
preparation of all tax returns of the Trust, and shall, upon request, execute
such returns. In no event shall the Trustee, the Servicer or the Transferor be
liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust, the Investor
Certificateholders or the Certificate Owners arising out of the application of
any tax law, including federal, state or local income or excise taxes or any
other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition
with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith).

     Section 11.12 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
                   ------------------------------------------------
Certificates. All rights of action and claims under this Agreement or any
------------
Supplement or the Certificates may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee
without the possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in
any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the
Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee. Any recovery of judgment
shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and

                                      61
<PAGE>

advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of
the Certificateholders in respect of which such judgment has been obtained.

     Section 11.13 Suits for Enforcement. If a Servicer Default of which a
                   ---------------------
Responsible Officer has knowledge shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee, in
its discretion may, subject to the provisions of Article X, proceed to protect
                                                 ---------
and enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders under this
Agreement or any Supplement by suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or
otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement
contained in this Agreement or any supplement or in aid of the execution of any
power granted in this Agreement or any Supplement or for the enforcement of any
other legal, equitable or other remedy as the Trustee, being advised by counsel,
shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the
Trustee or the Certificateholders. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Certificateholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Certificates or the rights of any holder thereof, or

Amortization Event with respect to any other Series.

zero on its Series Termination Date, the Servicer will use its best efforts to
sell or cause to be sold in a commercially reasonable manner, and pay the

payment of all principal of and accrued interest on such Series of Certificates,
an amount of Receivables and Related Property up to the Target Receivables
Amount of such Series calculated as of the related Series Termination Date, at
the close of business on such date; but in no event shall the amount of
Receivables and Related Property sold cause the Aggregate Eligible Unpaid
Balance to be less than the Aggregate Target Receivables Amount. Any proceeds of
such sale in excess of such principal and interest paid and such expenses of the
Trustee shall be paid first in respect of any amounts owing to any Enhancement
                      -----
Provider for such Series and second to the Transferor. Upon payment of the

                                          ----------------
accrued interest on such Series shall be deemed for all purposes to have been

                                      64

Payment Date following the sale of Receivables and Related Property called for
above in this Section 12.02(b), with respect to the applicable Series of
              ----------------
Certificates, final payment of all amounts allocable to any Investor
Certificates of such Series shall be made in the manner provided in Section
                                                                    -------

and cancellation, shall be given (subject to at least ten days' prior notice
from the Servicer to the Trustee) by the Trustee to the Investor
Certificateholders of such Series mailed not later than the fifth day of the
month of such final distribution specifying (i) the Payment Date (which shall be
the Payment Date in the month in which the deposit is made pursuant to Section
                                                                       -------

notice to the Trustee in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be
accompanied by an Officer's Certificate setting forth the information specified
in Section 5.02(a), as applicable, covering the period during the then current

Trustee shall pay such funds to the Certificateholders upon surrender of their
Certificates. In the event that all of the Investor Certificateholders of all,
or the applicable, Series, shall not surrender their Certificates for
cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above-mentioned
written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining
Investor Certificateholders, upon receipt of the appropriate records from the
Transfer Agent and Registrar to surrender their Certificates for cancellation
and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year
after the second notice all, or the applicable Investor Certificates of such
Series shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take
appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact
the remaining Investor Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds in the
Collection Account held for the benefit of such Investor Certificateholders.

of a Certificate only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate for
payment and cancellation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All
Certificates surrendered for payment of the final distribution with respect to
such Certificates and cancellation, shall be canceled by the Transfer Agent and
Registrar and be disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee. Upon the
termination of the Trust, the Transferor shall return the Transferor Certificate
to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall dispose of such Certificates in a manner
satisfactory to the Trustee.

time by the Servicer, the Transferor and the Trustee, but without the consent of
any of the Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement
any provisions herein or therein which may be inconsistent with any other
provisions herein or therein or to add any other provisions with respect to

which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement (including
any Supplement). In connection with such amendment, an officer of the Servicer
shall deliver a certificate that the requirements for such amendment pursuant to
this Section are satisfied.

     (b)  This Agreement (including any Supplement) may also be amended or the

purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any
of the provisions of this Agreement (including any Supplement) or of modifying
in any manner the rights of the Certificateholders of any Series then issued and
outstanding including the addition, modification or elimination of such
provisions as

                                      66
<PAGE>

may be necessary or advisable in order to enable all or a portion of the Trust
to qualify as, and to permit an election to be made to cause the Trust to be
treated as, a "financial asset securitization investment trust" as described in
the provisions of (s)(s) 860H through 860L of the Internal Revenue Code;
provided, however, that (i) the Servicer shall have provided an Officer's
--------  -------

and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders of any outstanding
Series (or 100% of the Class of Certificateholders so affected shall have
consented); (ii) such amendment shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel, cause the Trust to be characterized for Federal income tax purposes as
an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise have any material adverse
impact on the Federal income taxation characterization of any outstanding Series
of Certificates or any Certificate Owner; (iii) the Rating Agency Condition
shall have been satisfied with respect to such amendment; and (iv) the

all Series adversely affected for the purpose of adding any provisions to,
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement

Certificateholders of any Series then issued and outstanding. No such amendment
or waiver, however, may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of or delay the
timing of, distributions required to be made on such Series, (ii) change the
definition or the manner of calculating interest in respect of any Certificate
of such Series, or (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Undivided Interests
the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, in
each case without the consent of all Certificateholders of all Series adversely
affected. In connection with such amendment, an officer of the Servicer shall
deliver a certificate that the requirements for such amendment pursuant to this
Section are satisfied.

     (d)  Promptly after the execution of any amendment or waiver in respect of
this Agreement, the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance

Supplement, to each Enhancement Provider and to the Holders of the Certificates
of the related Series), and the Servicer shall furnish written notification of
the substance of such amendment or waiver to each Rating Agency.

     (e)  It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Investor
Certificateholders under this Section 13.01 to approve the particular form of
                              -------------
any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent
shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and
of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Persons required
to consent under Section 13.01 shall be subject to such reasonable requirements
                 -------------
as the Trustee may prescribe.

continuation statements, then the Trustee shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to file the same on behalf of the Transferor.
