                            SALES OF PURCHASER ASSETS

         Section 2.1       Sale of Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof the Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and
otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse (subject to the obligations

                  (i)      the Loans, including the Loan Files, and all
                           obligations of the Obligors thereunder, including the
                           right to payment of any interest or finance charges

                           or custody of, or in transit to, the Servicer, any
                           Sub-Servicer or the Seller relating to any of the
                           foregoing;

                  (vi)     all Records with respect to any of the foregoing; and

                                                                   Loan Purchase
                                                              and Sale Agreement

<PAGE>

                  (vii)    all Proceeds of the foregoing (collectively the
                           "Purchaser Assets").

                  (b)      On or before the Closing Date, the Seller shall (i)
         indicate in its computer files that the Purchaser Assets have been sold
         to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement by so identifying the
         Purchaser Assets with an appropriate notation and (ii) deliver to the
         Purchaser or its designee the following documents (collectively, the
         "Loan Files"):

                  (i)      the original fully executed copy of the Loan;

                  (ii)     a record or facsimile of the original credit
                           application fully executed by the Obligor;

                  (iii)    the original certificate of title or file stamped
                           copy of the UCC financing statement or such other
                           documents evidencing the security interest of the
                           Purchaser in the Equipment; and

                  (iv)     any and all other documents relating to a Loan, an
                           Obligor or any of the Equipment.

         Section 2.2       Grant of Security Interest. The parties hereto intend
that the sale pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof shall constitute a purchase and
sale and not a loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Section 2.2, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the sale
provided for herein constitutes a loan and not a purchase and sale, then the
parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement
under applicable law and that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and
the Seller hereby grants, to the Purchaser a first priority lien and security
interest in and to all of the Seller's right, title and interest in, to and
under the Purchaser Assets. The possession by the Purchaser of notes and such
other goods, money, documents, chattel paper or certificated securities shall be
deemed to be "possession by the secured party" for purposes of perfecting the
security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in force in the
relevant jurisdiction (including, without limitation, Section 9-313(c)(1)
thereof). Notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments,
receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed
notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or
agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such
security interest under applicable law (except that nothing in this sentence
shall cause any Person to be deemed to be an agent of the Purchaser for any
purpose other than for perfection of such security interest unless, and then
only to the extent, expressly appointed and authorized by the Purchaser in
writing).

         Section 2.3       Sale Price. On the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall,
upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, issue
and exchange the Notes (the "Purchaser Purchase Price") as consideration for the
Purchaser Assets sold and transferred by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to
Section 2.1 hereof.

         Section 2.4       Removal of Loans. (a) In the event a Loan becomes a
Delinquent Loan or the Obligor thereon is subject to a bankruptcy proceeding,
the Seller shall be granted an assignable option (a "Purchase Option") to
purchase such Delinquent Loan from the Purchaser at a price (the "Option Price")
equal to the Purchase Amount. The Seller may sell, transfer, assign or otherwise
convey its Purchase Option with respect to any such Loan to any party at any
time

after the related Loan becomes a Delinquent Loan or the Obligor thereon is
subject to a bankruptcy proceeding. The Seller shall notify the Purchaser of
such transfer and such notice shall include the transferee's name, address,
telephone number, facsimile number and appropriate contact person(s) and shall
be acknowledged in writing by the transferee. If not exercised earlier, the
Purchase Option with respect to any such Loan shall automatically terminate upon
(i) in the case of a Delinquent Loan, the related Obligor's cure of all defaults
on the Loan, (ii) the acquisition by, or on behalf of, the Issuer of the related
equipment through repossession, (iii) upon a repurchase of a Loan due to the
Seller's breach of a representation with respect to such Loan or (iv) on the
Business Day immediately preceding the last day of the calendar quarter ending
at least ten (10) days after such Loan became a Defaulted Loan. The aggregate
Outstanding Principal Balance of Loans with respect to which the Seller may
exercise its Purchase Option at any time before the Redemption Date shall not
exceed 10% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans as of the
Cutoff Date.

                  (b)      Upon a Loan becoming a Delinquent Loan or the Obligor
         thereon is subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, the Seller may exercise
         the Purchase Option by providing the Purchaser at least five days prior
         written notice thereof (the "Purchase Option Notice"), which notice
         shall specify a cash exercise price at least equal to the Option Price.
         The Purchase Option Notice shall be delivered in the manner specified
         in Section 2.4(b). The exercise of any Purchase Option pursuant to this
         clause (b) shall be irrevocable.

                  (c)      Upon exercise of a Purchase Option, the Seller shall
         be required to pay the purchase price specified in its Purchase Option
         Notice to the Purchaser within 10 Business Days of exercising its
         Purchase Option. The proceeds of any sale of such Loan, after deduction
         of the expenses of such sale incurred in connection therewith, shall be
         deposited by the Seller no later than the day before the next Payment
         Date.

                                   ARTICLE III

Purchaser) as of the Closing Date:

         in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
         each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser.

                  (b)      The Purchaser shall have received satisfactory
         evidence that the Seller has obtained all required consents and
         approvals of all Persons, including all requisite Governmental
         Authorities, to the execution, delivery and performance of this
         Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

         respects with all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and
         regulations, including those specifically referenced in Section 4.2(c),

         representation or warranty shall be true and correct) as of the Closing
         Date, both before and after giving effect to such sale, except to the
         extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates to an
         earlier date and except for changes therein expressly permitted by this
         Agreement.

                  (e)      The Seller shall be in compliance with each of its
         covenants and other agreements set forth herein.

                  (f)      The Seller shall have taken such other action,
         including delivery of approvals, consents, opinions, documents and
         instruments to the Purchaser as the Purchaser may reasonably request.

The consummation by the Seller of the sale of Purchaser Assets on the Closing
Date shall be deemed to constitute, as of the Closing Date, a representation and
warranty by the Seller that the conditions in clauses (d), (e) and (f) of this
Section 3.1 have been satisfied.

                  (c)      Power, Authorization, Enforceable Obligations. The
         execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of this Agreement and
         the other Related Documents and the creation and perfection of all
         Liens and ownership interests provided for herein: (i) have been duly
         authorized by all necessary action, and (ii) do not violate any
         provision of any law or regulation of any Governmental Authority, or
         contractual or other restrictions, binding on the Seller, except where
         such violations, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably
         be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (d)      Enforceability. On or prior to the Closing Date, each
         of the Related Documents to which the Seller is a party shall have been
         duly executed and delivered by the Seller and each such Related
         Document shall then constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of
         the Seller enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject
         as to enforcement to bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship,
         insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of

         general principles of equity.

                  (f)      Use of Proceeds. No proceeds received by the Seller

         Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board.

                  (g)      Investment Company Act. The Seller is not an
         "investment company" or "controlled by" an "investment company," as
         such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act.

                  (h)      Loans and Other Purchaser Assets. With respect to
         each Loan and the other Purchaser Assets sold by the Seller on the
         Closing Date, the Seller represents and warrants that (i) such Loan
         satisfies the criteria for an Eligible Loan as of the Cut-Off Date; and
         (ii) immediately prior to its sale to the Purchaser, such Purchaser
         Assets were owned by the Seller free and clear of any Adverse Claim,
         and the Seller has had at all relevant times the full right, power and
         authority to sell, contribute, assign, transfer and pledge its interest
         therein as contemplated under this Agreement and, upon such sale, the
         Purchaser will acquire valid and properly perfected title to, and the
         sole record and beneficial ownership interest in, such Purchaser
         Assets, free and clear of any Adverse Claim or restrictions on
         transferability, and the Liens granted to the Purchaser by the Seller
         pursuant to Section 2.2 will at all times be fully perfected first
         priority Liens in and to such ----------- Loans and, in addition,
         following such sale, such Loan will not be subject to any Adverse Claim
         as a result of any action or inaction on the part of the Seller (or any
         predecessor in interest).

The representations and warranties described in this Section 4.1 shall survive
the sale of the Purchaser Assets to the Purchaser, any subsequent assignment or
sale of the Purchaser Assets by the Purchaser, and the termination of this
Agreement and the other Related Documents and shall continue until the payment
in full of all Purchaser Assets.

covenants and agrees that, unless otherwise consented to by the Purchaser, from
and after the Closing Date:

                  (a)      Records. The Seller shall at its own cost and
         expense, for not less than three years from the date on which each Loan
         was originated, or for such longer period as may be required by law,
         maintain adequate Records with respect to such Loan, including records
         of all payments received, credits granted and merchandise returned with
         respect thereto.

                  (b)      Access. At any reasonable time, and from time to time
         at the Purchaser's reasonable request, and upon at least seven days
         prior notice to the Seller, the Seller shall permit the Purchaser (or
         such Person as the Purchaser may designate), at the expense of the
         Purchaser (or such Person as the Purchaser may designate), to conduct
         audits or visit and inspect any of the properties of the Seller to
         examine the records, internal controls and procedures maintained by the
         Seller with respect to the Purchaser Assets and take copies and
         extracts therefrom, and to discuss the Seller's affairs with its
         officers, employees and, upon notice to the Seller, independent
         accountants. The Seller shall authorize such officers, employees and
         independent accountants to discuss with the Purchaser (or such Person
         as the Purchaser may designate) the affairs of the Seller as such
         affairs relate to the Purchaser Assets. Any audit provided for herein
         shall be conducted in accordance with the Seller's rules respecting
         safety and security on its premises and without materially disrupting
         operations. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
         continuing, the Seller shall provide such access at all times and
         without advance notice and shall provide the Purchaser (or such Person
         as the Purchaser may designate) with access to its suppliers and
         customers.

                  (c)      Compliance With Agreements and Applicable Laws. The
         Seller shall comply with all federal, state and local laws and
         regulations applicable to it and the Purchaser Assets, including those
         relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit
         reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices,
         privacy, licensing and taxation, except to the extent that the failure
         to so comply, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
         expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (d)      Maintenance of Existence and Conduct of Business. The
         Seller shall preserve and maintain its legal existence, rights,
         franchise and privileges in the jurisdiction of its formation.

                  (e)      Notice of Material Event. The Seller shall promptly
         inform the Purchaser in writing of the occurrence of any of the
         following, in each case setting forth the details thereof and what
         action, if any, the Seller proposes to take with respect thereto:

                  (i)      any Litigation commenced or, to the knowledge of the
                           Seller, threatened against the Seller or with respect
                           to or in connection with all or any substantial
                           portion of the Purchaser Assets or developments in
                           such Litigation in each case that the Seller believes
                           has a reasonable risk of being determined adversely
                           to the Seller and that could, if determined
                           adversely, have a Material Adverse Effect; or

                  (ii)     the commencement of a case or proceeding by or
                           against the Seller seeking a decree or order in
                           respect of the Seller (A) under the Bankruptcy Code
                           or any other applicable federal, state or foreign
                           bankruptcy or other similar law, (B) appointing a
                           custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or
                           sequestrator (or similar official) for the Seller or
                           for any substantial part of Seller's assets, or (C)
                           ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs
                           of the Seller.

                  (f)      Separate Identity. The Seller shall, to the extent
         applicable to it, act in a manner that is consistent with the
         statements set forth in Exhibit 4.2(f).

                  (g)      Deposit of Collections. The Seller shall transfer and
         cause its Subsidiaries to transfer to the Purchaser or the Servicer on
         its behalf, promptly, and in any event no later than the second
         Business Day after receipt thereof, all Collections it may receive in
         respect of Purchaser Assets.

                  (h)      Sale Characterization. For accounting purposes, the
         Seller shall treat the sale made hereunder as a sale of the Purchaser
         Assets. The Seller shall also maintain its accounting books and records
         in a manner which clearly reflects such sale of the Purchaser Assets to
         the Purchaser.

                  (i)      Variable Funding Certificate Contributions. Upon a
         demand by the Purchaser for a capital contribution from the Seller
         under the Purchaser Variable Funding Certificate, the Seller shall
         demand contributions from the CEF Variable Funding Certificateholder
         under the CEF Variable Funding Certificate in the amounts and at the
         times sufficient to permit the Seller to meet its funding obligations
         under the Purchaser Variable Funding Certificate.

         Section 4.3       Negative Covenants of the Seller. The Seller
covenants and agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser,
from and after the Closing Date and until the later of the Redemption Date or
the Maturity Date:

                  (a)      Adverse Claims. The Seller shall not create, incur,
         assume or permit to exist any Adverse Claim on or with respect to any
         Purchaser Assets.

                  (b)      Modifications of Loans. The Seller shall not extend,
         amend, forgive, discharge, compromise, cancel, waive or otherwise
         modify the terms or conditions of any Loan except (i) as permitted
         under the Servicing Agreement and, (ii) to the extent that such
         extension, amendment, forgiveness, discharge, compromise, cancellation,
         waiver or modification, does not affect the Purchaser's ownership
         interest in such Loan and does not negatively impact the ultimate
         collectibility of such Loan.

                  (c)      UCC Matters. The Seller shall not change its state of
         formation or its name, identity or limited liability company structure
         such that any financing statement filed to perfect the Purchaser's
         interests under this Agreement would become seriously misleading,
         unless the Seller shall have given the Purchaser not less than 30 days'
         prior written notice of such change.

                  (d)      No Proceedings. From the Closing Date and until the
         date one year plus one day following the date on which all amounts due
         with respect to the Notes have been paid in full in cash, Seller shall
         not, directly or indirectly, institute or cause to be instituted
         against the Purchaser any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
         insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under any
         federal or state bankruptcy or similar law; provided that the foregoing
         shall not in any way limit the Seller's right to pursue any other
         creditor rights or remedies that the Seller may have under applicable
         law.

                  (e)      Consolidations, Mergers and Sales of Assets. The
         Seller shall not (i) consolidate or merge with or into any other Person
         unless the Seller is the entity surviving such merger or (ii) sell,
         lease or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets to
         any other Person.

                  (f)      Variable Funding Certificate Contributions. The
         Seller shall not demand a capital contribution from the CEF Variable
         Funding Certificateholder except to the extent that there shall have
         been a demand made by the Purchaser for a capital contribution under
         the Purchaser Variable Funding Certificate. In addition, the Seller
         shall not reduce the Variable Funding Capital Commitment under the
         Purchaser Variable Funding Certificate.

                                    ARTICLE V

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         Section 5.1       Indemnification. Without limiting any other rights
that the Purchaser or any of its Stockholders, officers, directors, employees,
attorneys, agents or representatives (each, a "Purchaser Indemnified Person")
may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller hereby agrees to,
indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser Indemnified Person from and against
any and all Indemnified Amounts that may be claimed or asserted against or
incurred by any such Purchaser Indemnified Person to the extent arising from or
related to the failure of a Loan to be originated in compliance with all
requirements of law; provided, that the Seller shall not be liable for any
indemnification to a Purchaser Indemnified Person to the extent that any such
Indemnified Amounts result from (a) such Purchaser Indemnified Person's bad
faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, (b) recourse for uncollectible
Loans, or (c) any income tax or franchise tax incurred by any Purchaser
Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the incurrence of any such tax
results from a breach of or default by the Seller under this Agreement.

NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO
THIS AGREEMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH
PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR
INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT MAY BE ALLEGED AS A
RESULT OF ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER.

                                  CLEAN-UP CALL

         Section 6.1       Clean-up Call. As of the first day of any Collection
Period immediately preceding a Payment Date as of which the Pool Balance is 10%
or less of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date, the Seller shall have the
option to purchase all of the Collateral, other than the Trust Accounts. To
exercise such option, the Seller shall pay to the Servicer, on behalf of the
Issuer, and the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal
to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Loans plus the appraised value of any
such other property held by the Purchaser, such value to be determined by an
appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Seller and the Purchaser, shall succeed to
all interests in, to and under the Collateral, other than the Trust Accounts.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 7.1       Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein,
whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served
upon any of the parties by any other parties, or whenever any of the parties
desires to give or serve upon any other parties any communication with respect
to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval,
declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been validly served, given or delivered (a) upon the earlier of actual
receipt and three Business Days after deposit in the United States mail,
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with proper postage
prepaid, (b) upon transmission, when sent by telecopy or other similar facsimile

facsimile number) as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The
giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party
entitled to receive such notice. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any
notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication
to any Person (other than Purchaser) designated in any written communication
provided hereunder to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the
effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or
other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever it is provided
herein that a notice is to be given to any other party hereto by a specific
time, such notice shall be effective only if actually received by such party
prior to such time, and if such notice is received after such time or on a day
other than a Business Day, such notice shall be effective only on the
immediately succeeding Business Day.

                  Facsimile: (203) 796-5554

         Section 7.2       No Waiver; Remedies. (a) Either party's failure, at
any time or times, to require strict performance by the other party hereto of
any provision of this Agreement shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of
such party thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith. Any
suspension or waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall not suspend, waive
or affect any other breach or default whether the same is prior or subsequent
thereto and whether of the same or a different type. None of the undertakings,
agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of either party contained
in this Agreement, and no breach or default by either party hereunder, shall be
deemed to have been suspended or waived by the other party hereto unless such
waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of or
other duly authorized signatory of such party and directed to the defaulting
party specifying such suspension or waiver.

                  (b)      Upon discovery by the Seller or the Purchaser of any
         breach of any representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant
         described in Sections 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3, which breach is reasonably
         likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, the party discovering the
         same shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party
         hereto. As liquidated damages, the Purchaser shall, on the Transfer
         Date relating to the Collection Period during which the breach is
         discovered, request the Seller to, and the Seller shall pay to, or at
         the direction of, the Purchaser the Purchase Amount for the applicable
         Purchaser Assets (measured at the end of the Collection Period during
         which such breach is discovered). Upon such payment, all rights, title
         and interest of the Purchaser in and to such Purchaser Assets will be
         deemed to be automatically released without the necessity of any
         further action by the Purchaser, the Seller or any other party and such
         Purchaser Assets will become the property of the Seller.

                  (c)      Each party's rights and remedies under this Agreement
         shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies
         that such party may have

         under any other agreement, including the other Related Documents, by
         operation of law or otherwise.

         Section 7.3       Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Seller and the Purchaser and
their respective successors and permitted assigns, except as otherwise provided
herein. The Seller may not assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its
rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder without the prior express
written consent of the Purchaser. Any such purported assignment, transfer,
hypothecation or other conveyance by the Seller without the prior express
written consent of the Purchaser shall be void. The Seller acknowledges that
under the Indenture the Purchaser will assign its rights granted hereunder to
the Indenture Trustee, and upon such assignment, Indenture Trustee shall have,
to the extent of such assignment, all rights of the Purchaser hereunder and
Indenture Trustee may in turn transfer such rights. The terms and provisions of
this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and
obligations of the Seller and the Purchaser with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of any of
the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

         Section 7.4       Termination; Survival of Obligations. (a) This
Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties
hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect
until the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date or (ii) the Redemption Date.

                  (b)      Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
         any other Related Document, no termination or cancellation (regardless
         of cause or procedure) of any commitment made by the Purchaser under
         this Agreement shall in any way affect or impair the obligations,
         duties and liabilities of the Seller or the rights of the Purchaser
         relating to any unpaid portion of any and all recourse and indemnity
         obligations of the Seller to the Purchaser, due or not due, liquidated,
         contingent or unliquidated or any transaction or event occurring prior
         to such termination, or any transaction or event, the performance of
         which is required after the Maturity Date. Except as otherwise
         expressly provided herein or in any other Related Document, all
         undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of
         or binding upon the Seller, and all rights of the Purchaser hereunder
         shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such
         termination or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect
         until the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date or (ii) the Redemption Date;
         provided, that the rights and remedies pursuant to Section 7.2(b), the
         indemnification and payment provisions of Article V, and the provisions
         of Sections 4.3(e), 7.3 and 7.12 shall be continuing and shall survive
         any termination of this Agreement.

         Section 7.5       Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This
Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and may not be modified,
altered or amended except as set forth in Section 7.6.

         Section 7.6       Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any
departure therefrom by any party hereto, shall in any event be effective unless
the same shall be in writing and signed by

each of the parties hereto. No consent or demand in any case shall, in itself,
entitle any party to any other consent or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances.

         Section 7.7       GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF
JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL IN
ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE,
BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS
THEREOF EXCEPT SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW) AND ANY APPLICABLE
LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

                  (b)      EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE
         STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK
         CITY SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS
         OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THEM PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER
         ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY
         HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE
         HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW
         YORK CITY; PROVIDED FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
         DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE THE PURCHASER FROM BRINGING SUIT OR
         TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE
         LOANS OR ANY SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE SELLER ARISING
         HEREUNDER OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF THE
         PURCHASER. EACH PARTY HERETO SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH
         JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND
         EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE
         BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON
         CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR
         EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY
         HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND
         OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE
         OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED
         OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS DETERMINED IN
         ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 6.1 AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED
         COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH PARTY'S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR
         THREE DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAIL, PROPER POSTAGE
         PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY
         HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

                  (c)      BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX
         FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN
         EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND
         FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES
         DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH
         APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE
         BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO
         WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING
         BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR
         OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO
         THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
         AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

         Section 7.8       Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately
constitute one agreement.

         Section 7.9       Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of
this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

         Section 7.10      Section Titles. The section titles and table of
contents contained in this Agreement are provided for ease of reference only and
shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are
not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

         Section 7.11      No Setoff. The Seller's obligations under this
Agreement shall not be affected by any right of setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right the Seller might have against the Purchaser,
all of which rights are hereby expressly waived by the Seller.

         Section 7.12      Confidentiality. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, there is no restriction (express or implied) on any disclosure or
dissemination of the structure or tax aspects of the transaction contemplated by
the Related Documents. Furthermore, each party hereto acknowledges that it has
no proprietary rights to any tax matter or tax idea contemplated hereby or to
any element of the transaction structure contemplated hereby.

         Section 7.13      Further Assurances. (a) The Seller shall, at its sole
cost and expense, upon request of the Purchaser, promptly and duly authorize,
execute and/or deliver, as applicable, any and all further instruments and
documents and take such further actions that may be necessary or desirable or
that the Purchaser may request to carry out more effectively the provisions and
purposes of this Agreement or to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and
of the rights and powers herein granted, including authorizing and filing any
financing or continuation statements under the UCC with respect to the ownership
interests or Liens granted hereunder. The Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser
to file any such financing or continuation

                                       13
<PAGE>

statements without the signature of the Seller to the extent permitted by
applicable law. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement
or of any notice or financing statement covering the Purchaser Assets or any
part thereof shall be sufficient as a notice or financing statement where
permitted by law. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the
Purchaser Assets is or shall become evidenced by any instrument, such
instrument, other than checks and notes received in the ordinary course of
business, shall be duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Purchaser
immediately upon the Seller's receipt thereof and promptly delivered to or at
the direction of the Purchaser.

         (b)      If the Seller fails to perform any agreement or obligation
under this Section 7.13, the Purchaser may (but shall not be required to) itself
perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the
reasonable expenses of the Purchaser incurred in connection therewith shall be
payable by the Seller upon demand of the Purchaser.

         Section 7.14      Accounting Changes. If any Accounting Changes occur
and such changes result in a change in the standards or terms used herein, then
the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such
provisions so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired
result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of such Persons
and their Subsidiaries shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if
such Accounting Changes had not been made. If the parties hereto agree upon the
required amendments to this Agreement, then after appropriate amendments have
been executed and the underlying Accounting Change with respect thereto has been
implemented, any reference to GAAP contained herein shall, only to the extent of

                          SEPARATE IDENTITY PROVISIONS

         The Purchaser, GECS, GE Capital and the Seller have and will continue
(in each case, to the extent within its control) to maintain the Purchaser's
separate existence and identity and have and will continue to take all steps
necessary to make it apparent to third parties that the Purchaser is an entity
with assets and liabilities distinct from those of the Seller, GE Capital or
GECS or any other subsidiary or affiliate of the Seller, GE Capital or GECS. In
addition to the foregoing, such steps and indicia of the Purchaser's separate
identity include the following:

         (a)      The Purchaser does and will maintain its own stationery and
other business forms separate from those of any other Person (including the
Seller, GE Capital and GECS), and will conduct business in its own name except
that certain Persons may act on behalf of the Purchaser as agents;

         (b)      The Purchaser maintains and will maintain separate office
space of its own as part of its operations, although such space is in a building
shared with GE Capital. The corporate records, the other books and records, and
the other assets of the Purchaser are and will be segregated from the property
of the Seller and GECS, respectively;

         (c)      GECS and/or GE Capital will issue consolidated financial
statements, which financial statements will not show Purchaser Assets that have
been sold by the Seller to the Purchaser as assets of the Seller and its
consolidated subsidiaries. The Seller, GECS, GE Capital and the Purchaser will
take certain actions to disclose publicly the Purchaser's separate existence and
the transactions contemplated hereby, including through the filing of the UCC
Financing Statements. None of the Seller, GECS, GE Capital or the Purchaser has
concealed or will conceal from any interested party any transfers contemplated
by the Related Documents;

         (d)      The Purchaser will not have its own employees, and, as
indicated, the Purchaser's business relating to the Purchaser Assets may be
conducted through the agents. However, any allocations of direct, indirect or
overhead expenses for items shared between the Purchaser and GE Capital or GECS
that are not included as part of the servicing fee are and will be made among
such entities to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or value of
services rendered and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to actual use or
the value of services rendered;

         (e)      Except as provided in paragraph (d) above regarding the
allocation of certain shared overhead items, the Purchaser does and will pay its
own operating expenses and liabilities from its own funds, except GECS did and
will pay all expenses of the Purchaser incurred in connection with the
transactions entered into pursuant to the Related Documents, including those
related to the Purchaser's organization;

         (f)      Each of the Seller, GECS, GE Capital and the Purchaser does
and will maintain its assets and liabilities in such a manner that it is not
costly or difficult to segregate, ascertain or otherwise identify the
Purchaser's individual assets and liabilities from those of the Seller, GE
Capital or GECS or from those of any other person or entity, including any other
subsidiary or affiliate of the Seller, GE Capital or GECS. Except as set forth
below, the Purchaser does and will maintain its own books of account and
corporate records separate from the Seller, GE

                                                                   Loan Purchase
                                                              and Sale Agreement

<PAGE>

Capital and GECS or any other subsidiary or affiliate of the Seller, GE Capital
and GECS. Monetary transactions, including those with each other, are and will
continue to be properly reflected in their respective financial records. The
Purchaser does not and will not commingle or pool its funds or other assets or
liabilities with those of the Seller, GE Capital or GECS or any other subsidiary
or affiliate of the Seller, GE Capital or GECS except as specifically provided
in the Related Documents with respect to the temporary commingling of
Collections and with respect to, if applicable, any such Person's retention, in
their capacity as agent or Custodian for the Purchaser, of the books and records
pertaining to the Purchaser Assets. However, any such agent or Custodian will
not generally make the books and records relating to the Purchaser Assets
available to any of creditors or other interested persons of the Purchaser, the
Seller, GE Capital or GECS. The Purchaser does not and will not maintain joint
bank accounts or other depository accounts to which the Seller, GE Capital or
GECS or any other subsidiary or affiliate of the Seller, GE Capital or GECS
(other than in their capacity as agent for the Purchaser, if applicable) has
independent access;

         (g)      The Purchaser will strictly observe corporate formalities, and
the Seller, GE Capital and GECS will strictly observe corporate formalities with
respect to its dealings with the Purchaser. Specifically, no transfer of assets
between any of the Seller, GE Capital and GECS, on the one hand, and the
Purchaser, on the other, will be made without adherence to corporate
formalities;

         (h)      The transactions among the Purchaser and the Seller, GE
Capital or GECS, including the terms governing any servicer advances and the
amount and payment of the servicing fee, are on terms and conditions that are
consistent with those of arm's-length relationships. None of the Seller, GE
Capital or GECS is or will be, or holds or will hold itself out to be,
responsible for the debts of the Purchaser, except as provided in: the
representations made by GE Capital (including, if applicable, as a servicer or a
sub-servicer) to the Purchaser relating to the Purchaser Assets and their prior
ownership and servicing thereof. The Purchaser will not guaranty the debts of
the Seller, GE Capital or GECS;

         (i)      All distributions made by the Purchaser to GECS as its sole
member shall be in accordance with applicable law;

         (j)      Any other transactions between the Purchaser and the Seller,
GE Capital or GECS permitted by (although not expressly provided for in) the
Related Documents have been and will be fair and equitable to each of the
parties, have been and will be the type of transaction that would be entered
into by a prudent person or entity, and have been and will be on terms that are
at least as favorable as may be obtained from a third party Person; and

         (k)      The Purchaser is not named, or has entered into any agreement
to be named, directly or indirectly, as a direct or contingent beneficiary or
loss payee on any insurance policy covering the assets of the Seller, GE Capital
or GECS.
