     Section 2.01 NAME. The trust shall be known as "_____ Trust Series ____-__"
(the "Trust"), in which name the Owner Trustee may engage in the transactions
contemplated hereby, make and execute contracts and other instruments on behalf
of the Trust and sue and be sued.

     Section 2.02 OFFICE. The office of the Trust shall be in care of the Owner
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office or at such other address in Delaware as

the following activities:

          (i) to issue the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Class CE
     Certificate (hereinafter referred to as the "Certificate" or
     "Certificates") pursuant to this Owner Trust Agreement and to sell the
     Notes and the Certificate;

          (ii) to assign, grant, transfer, pledge and convey the Loans pursuant
     to the Indenture and to hold, manage and distribute to the
     Certificateholder pursuant to Section 5.01 any portion of the Loans

          (iii) to assign, grant, transfer, own, pledge and convey the Loans in
     connection with any such termination;

          (iv) to enter into and perform its obligations under the Basic
     Documents to which it is to be a party;

          (v) to engage in those activities, including entering into agreements,
     that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the foregoing or
     are incidental thereto or connected therewith; and

          (vi) subject to compliance with the Basic Documents, to engage in such
     other activities as may be required in connection with conservation of the
     Owner Trust Estate and the making of distributions to the Certificateholder
     and the Noteholders.

shall not engage in any activity other than in connection with the foregoing or
other than as required or authorized by the terms of this Owner Trust Agreement
or the Basic Documents while any Note is outstanding without the consent of the

have all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein.

Depositor hereby sells, assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the Trust,
as of the date hereof, the sum of $1. The Owner Trustee hereby acknowledges
receipt in trust from the Depositor, as of the date hereof, of the foregoing
contribution, which shall constitute the initial corpus of the Trust and shall
be deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account. The Owner Trustee also
acknowledges on behalf of the Trust, the receipt in trust of the Loans assigned
to the Trust pursuant to Section 3.01, which shall constitute the Owner Trust
Estate.

     Section 2.06 DECLARATION OF TRUST. The Owner Trustee hereby declares that
it shall hold the Owner Trust Estate in trust upon and subject to the conditions
set forth herein for the use and benefit of the Certificateholder, subject to
the obligations of the Owner Trust under the Basic Documents. It is the
intention of the parties hereto that the Owner Trust constitute a statutory
trust under the Statutory Trust Statute and that this Owner Trust Agreement
constitute the governing instrument of such statutory trust. It is the intention
of the parties hereto that, solely for federal, state and local income and
franchise tax purposes, the Owner Trust shall be treated as a domestic eligible
entity with a single owner electing to be disregarded as a separate entity. The
parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities,
the Owner Trust will not file or cause to be filed annual or other returns,
reports or other forms. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall
have all rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Statutory Trust
Statute with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Owner Trust.

     Section 2.07 TITLE TO TRUST PROPERTY. Legal title to the Owner Trust Estate
shall be vested at all times in the Trust as a separate legal entity except
where applicable law in any jurisdiction requires title to any part of the Owner
Trust Estate to be vested in a trustee or trustees, in which case title shall be
deemed to be vested in the Owner Trustee, a co-trustee and/or a separate
trustee, as the case may be.

     Section 2.08 SITUS OF TRUST. The Trust will be located and administered in
the State of Delaware or New York. All bank accounts maintained by the Owner
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall be located in the State of Delaware or the
State of New York. The Trust shall not have any employees in any state other
than Delaware; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit
the Owner Trustee from having employees within or without the State of Delaware
or taking actions outside the State of Delaware in order to comply with Section
2.03. Payments will be received by the Trust only in Delaware or New York, and
payments will be made by the Trust only from Delaware or New York. The only
office of the Trust will be at the Corporate Trust Office in Delaware.

     Section 2.09 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE DEPOSITOR. The Depositor
hereby represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee that:

          (i) The Depositor is duly organized and validly existing as a
     corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with
     power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as
     such properties are currently owned and such business is presently
     conducted.

<PAGE>



          (ii) The Depositor is duly qualified to do business as a foreign
     company in good standing and has obtained all necessary licenses and
     approvals in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its
     property or the conduct of its business shall require such qualifications
     and in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect
     on the business, properties, assets or condition (financial or other) of
     the Depositor and the ability of the Depositor to perform under this Owner
     Trust Agreement.

          (iii) The Depositor has the power and authority to execute and deliver
     this Owner Trust Agreement and to carry out its terms; the Depositor has
     full power and authority to sell and assign the property to be sold and
     assigned to and deposited with the Trust as part of the Trust and the
     Depositor has duly authorized such sale and assignment and deposit to the
     Trust by all necessary corporate action; and the execution, delivery and
     performance of this Owner Trust Agreement have been duly authorized by the
     Depositor by all necessary corporate action.

          (iv) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Owner
     Trust Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict
     with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or
     constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the
     certificate of formation or the limited liability company agreement of the
     Depositor, or any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the
     Depositor is a party or by which it is bound; nor result in the creation or
     imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of
     any such indenture, agreement or other instrument (other than pursuant to
     the Basic Documents); nor violate any law or, to the best of the
     Depositor's knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the
     Depositor of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body,
     administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having
     jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties.

                                   ARTICLE III

                    Conveyance of the Loans; The Certificate

     Section 3.01 CONVEYANCE OF THE LOANS. The Depositor, concurrently with the
execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, convey, sell and assign to
the Trust, on behalf of the Holders of the Notes and the Certificate, without
recourse, all its right, title and interest in and to the Loans.

     The parties hereto intend that the transaction set forth herein be a sale
for all legal purposes (other than income tax laws) by the Depositor to the
Trust of all of its right, title and interest in and to the Loans. In the event
that the transaction set forth herein is not deemed to be a sale for non-tax
purposes, the Depositor hereby grants to the Trust a security interest in all of
its right, title and interest in, to and under the Owner Trust Estate, all
distributions thereon and all proceeds thereof; and this Owner Trust Agreement
shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

     For income tax purposes the parties hereto intend that the transaction set
forth herein shall not be a taxable event.

     Section 3.02 INITIAL OWNERSHIP. Upon the formation of the Trust by the
contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05 and until the conveyance
of the Loans pursuant to Section 3.01 and the issuance of the Certificate, the
Depositor shall be the sole Certificateholder.

     Section 3.03 THE CERTIFICATE. The Certificate shall be issued in a single
denomination of a 100.00% Certificate Percentage Interest.

     The Certificate shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or
facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee and
authenticated in the manner provided in Section 3.04. If the Certificate bears
the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when
such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the
Trust, it shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Owner
Trust Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have
ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of the
Certificate or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and
delivery of the Certificate. A Person shall become the Certificateholder and
shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of the
Certificateholder hereunder upon such Person's acceptance of the Certificate
duly registered in such Person's name, pursuant to Section 3.05.

     A transferee of the Certificate shall become the Certificateholder and
shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of the
Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee's acceptance of the Certificate
duly registered in such transferee's name pursuant to and upon satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 3.05.

     Section 3.04 AUTHENTICATION OF CERTIFICATE. Concurrently with the
acquisition of the Loans by the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate
Paying Agent shall cause the Certificate in an aggregate Certificate Percentage
Interest of 100.00% to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and
delivered to or upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by its chairman
of the board, its president or any vice president, without further corporate
action by the Depositor, in


                                        6

<PAGE>



the authorized denomination. The Certificate shall not entitle its holder to any
benefit under this Owner Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless
there shall appear on the Certificate a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee
or the Certificate Paying Agent, by manual signature; such authentication shall
constitute conclusive evidence that the Certificate shall have been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Certificate shall be dated the date
of its authentication.

     Section 3.05 REGISTRATION OF AND LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF
CERTIFICATE. The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, a Certificate Register in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the
Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of the Certificate and
of transfers and exchanges of the Certificate as herein provided. The Indenture
Trustee shall be the initial Certificate Registrar. If the Certificate Registrar
resigns or is removed, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor Certificate
Registrar.

     Upon surrender for registration of transfer of the Certificate at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, the Owner Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause the Certificate Registrar as
its authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver) in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, a new Certificate in authorized
denominations of a like aggregate amount dated the date of authentication by the
Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of the
Certificateholder, the Certificate may be exchanged for another Certificate of
authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount upon surrender of the
Certificate to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to
Section 3.09.

     Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Certificateholder
or such Certificateholder's attorney duly authorized in writing. When the
Certificate is surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange it shall be
canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance
with its customary practice.

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

     Except as described below, no transfer of any Certificate or interest
therein shall be made to any Person that is not a United States Person. Each
Certificateholder shall establish its non-foreign status by submitting to the
Certificate Paying Agent an IRS Form W-9 and the Certificate of Non-Foreign
Status set forth in Exhibit F hereto.

     A Certificate may be transferred to a Certificateholder unable to establish
its non-foreign status as described in the preceding paragraph only if such
Certificateholder provides an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or
the Depositor, satisfactory to the Depositor, that such transfer (1) will not
affect the tax status of the Owner Trust and (2) will not adversely affect the
interests of any Certificateholder or Noteholder, including, without limitation,
as a result of the imposition of any


                                        7

<PAGE>



United States federal withholding taxes on the Trust (except to the extent that
such withholding taxes would be payable solely from amounts otherwise
distributable to the Certificate of the prospective transferee). If such
transfer occurs and such foreign Certificateholder becomes subject to such
United States federal withholding taxes, any such taxes will be withheld by the
Indenture Trustee. Each Certificateholder unable to establish its non-foreign
status shall submit to the Certificate Paying Agent a copy of its Form W-8BEN
and shall resubmit such Form W-8BEN every three years.

     No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of the Certificate shall be
made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event of
any such transfer, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor shall prior to
such transfer require the transferee to execute either (i) an investment letter
in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (or in such form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the
Depositor) which investment letters shall not be an expense of the Trust, the
Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer or the Depositor and
which investment letter states that, among other things, such transferee (a) is
a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined under Rule 144A, acting for its own
account or the accounts of other "qualified institutional buyers" as defined
under Rule 144A, and (b) is aware that the proposed transferor intends to rely
on the exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, provided by Rule 144A or (ii) (a) a written Opinion of Counsel
acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an
exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said
Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar, the Servicer or the Depositor and (b) the transferee executes a
representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, and the
transferor executes a representation letter, substantially in the form of
Exhibit E hereto, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to
the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor certifying the facts surrounding
such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an expense of the
Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer or the
Depositor.

     No transfer of the Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any
employee benefit plan or certain other retirement plans and arrangements,
including individual retirement accounts and annuities, Keogh plans and bank
collective investment funds and insurance company general or separate accounts
in which such plans, accounts or arrangements are invested, that are subject to
ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code (collectively, "Plan"), any Person acting,
directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring the
Certificate with "plan assets" of a Plan within the meaning of the Department of
Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C.F.R. ss.2510.3-101 ("Plan Assets") unless
the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Servicer are
provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the
Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Servicer that
the purchase of the Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not
constitute or result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar or the Servicer to any obligation or liability (including
obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition
to those undertaken in this Owner Trust Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar or the Servicer. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, a Plan, any
Person

<PAGE>



acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person
acquiring the Certificate with Plan Assets of a Plan may provide a certification
in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, which the Depositor, the Owner
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Servicer may rely upon without
further inquiry or investigation. Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor a
certification will be required in connection with the initial transfer of the
Certificate by the Depositor to [Name of Seller] shall have deemed to have
represented that such affiliate is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets
of any Plan) and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a
representation (which, upon the request of the Owner Trustee, shall be a written
representation) from the Depositor of the status of such transferee as an
affiliate of the Depositor.

     In addition, no transfer of the Certificate shall be permitted, and no such
transfer shall be registered by the Certificate Registrar or be effective
hereunder, if such transfer or the registration of such transfer would cause the
Trust to be classified as a publicly traded partnership, taxable as a
corporation for federal income tax purposes by causing the Trust to have more
than 100 Certificateholders at any time during the taxable year of the Trust.

     In addition, no transfer, sale, assignment, pledge or other disposition of
the Certificate (other than the initial transfer by the Depositor to [Name of
Seller]) shall be made unless the proposed transferee certifies, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor
that (1) the transferee is acquiring the Certificate for its own behalf and is
not acting as agent or custodian for any other person or entity in connection
with such acquisition and (2) the transferee is not a partnership, grantor trust
or S corporation for federal income tax purposes.

     Section 3.06 MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES. If (a) any
mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if
the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered
to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required by them to save each of them and the Trust from harm, then in
the absence of notice to the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee that
such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner Trustee
shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee or the Certificate
Paying Agent, as the Trust's authenticating agent, 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 denomination. In
connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.06, the
Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section
3.06 shall constitute conclusive 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 3.07 PERSONS DEEMED CERTIFICATEHOLDERS. Prior to due presentation
of the Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar or any Certificate Paying Agent may treat the Person in
whose name any Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the
owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to
Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trust, the
Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Certificate Paying Agent shall
be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Depositor or
the Owner Trustee, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of
a written request therefor from the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, a list, in
such form as the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, may
reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of
the most recent Record Date. Each Holder, by receiving and holding the
Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Trust, the
Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason
of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which
such information was derived.

     Section 3.09 MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY. The Owner Trustee on behalf
of the Trust, shall maintain in the City of New York an office or offices or
agency or agencies where the Certificate may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee
in respect of the Certificate and the Basic Documents may be served. The Owner
Trustee initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee
as its office for such purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written
notice to the Depositor and the Certificateholder of any change in the location
of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

     Section 3.10 CERTIFICATE PAYING AGENT. (a) The Certificate Paying Agent

Paying Agent and the Indenture Trustee hereby accepts such appointment and
further agrees that it will be bound by the provisions of this Owner Trust
Agreement relating to the Certificate Paying Agent and shall:

          (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with

     which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be
     made with respect to the Certificate;

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

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

          (v) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the
     withholding from any payments made by it on the Certificate of any

     (b) The Trust may revoke such power and remove the Certificate Paying Agent
if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Certificate
Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Owner Trust
Agreement in any material respect. The Indenture Trustee shall be permitted to
resign as Certificate Paying Agent upon 30 days written notice to the Owner
Trustee; provided the Indenture Trustee is also resigning as Paying Agent under
the Indenture at such time. In the event that the Indenture Trustee shall no
longer be the Certificate Paying Agent under this Owner Trust Agreement and
Paying Agent under the Indenture, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor to
act as Certificate Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company) and
which shall also be the successor Paying Agent under the Indenture. The Owner
Trustee shall cause such successor Certificate Paying Agent or any additional
Certificate Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver
to the Owner Trustee an instrument to the effect set forth in this Section 3.10
as it relates to the Certificate Paying Agent. The Certificate Paying Agent
shall return all unclaimed funds to the Trust and upon removal of a Certificate
Paying Agent such Certificate Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its
possession to the Trust. The provisions of Sections 6.01, 6.03, 6.04 and 7.01
shall apply to the Certificate Paying Agent to the extent applicable. Any
reference in this Agreement to the Certificate Paying Agent shall include any
co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

     (c) The Certificate Paying Agent shall establish and maintain with itself
the Certificate Distribution Account in which the Certificate Paying Agent shall
deposit, on the same day as it is received from the Indenture Trustee, each
remittance received by the Certificate Paying Agent with respect to payments

     Section 4.01 GENERAL AUTHORITY. The Owner Trustee is authorized and
directed to execute and deliver the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be
a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or
contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and any

administer the Trust pursuant to the terms of this Owner Trust Agreement and in
the interest of the Certificateholders, subject to the Basic Documents and in
accordance with the provisions of this Owner Trust Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties
under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to the extent that the Seller
or the Administrator shall have agreed in the Administration Agreement to
perform the duties of the Owner Trustee or the Trust, and the Owner Trustee
shall not be responsible for monitoring the performance of such duties by the
Seller or the Administrator nor shall the Owner Trustee be liable for the acts
or omissions of the Seller or the Administrator. In no event shall the Owner
Trustee be obligated to assume the duties of the Seller or Administrator in the
event of the Seller's or Administrator's resignation, removal, insolvency or
other incapacity.

     Section 4.03 ACTION UPON INSTRUCTION. (a) Subject to this Article IV and in
accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Certificateholders may by
written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust.
Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the
Certificateholders pursuant to this Article IV.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall not be required
to take any action hereunder or under any Basic Document if the Owner Trustee
shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that
such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or
is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Basic Document or is otherwise
contrary to law.

     (c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is required to decide or is unable to decide
between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this
Owner Trust Agreement or under any Basic Document, or in the event that the
Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Owner
Trust Agreement or any Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to
its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable
provision, or in the event that this Owner Trust Agreement permits any
determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the
course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a
particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such
form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders
requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the
extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written
instructions received from the Holder of the Certificate, the Owner Trustee
shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner
Trustee shall not


                                       12

<PAGE>



have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within
such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may
be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to,
take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Owner Trust
Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests
of the Certificateholders, and the Owner Trustee shall have no liability to any
Person for such action or inaction.

     Section 4.04 NO DUTIES EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED UNDER SPECIFIED DOCUMENTS OR IN
INSTRUCTIONS. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage,
make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or

taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby
to which the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly required by this
Owner Trust Agreement and (ii) in accordance with any instruction delivered to
the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03; and no implied duties or obligations
shall be read into this Owner Trust Agreement or any Basic Document against the
Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility to prepare or file
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 or to prepare or file any Securities and Exchange
Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Owner Trust Agreement or any
Basic Document. The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own
cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any
liens on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by, or
claims against, the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not
related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust Estate.

Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would
violate the provisions of this Section 4.05.

     (b) The Owner Trustee shall not convey or transfer any of the Trust's
properties or assets, including those included in the Trust Estate, to any
person unless (a) it shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect

violate the provisions of Section 3.16(b) of the Indenture.

Registrar, Paying Agent or Indenture Trustee or pursuant to this Owner Trust
Agreement of a successor Certificate Registrar or Certificate Paying Agent or
the consent to the assignment by the Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Indenture
Trustee, Certificate Registrar or Certificate Paying Agent of its obligations

reasonably believes that the Trust is insolvent.

     Section 4.09 RESTRICTIONS ON CERTIFICATEHOLDERS' POWER. The
Certificateholder shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take or to refrain from
taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation
of the Trust or the Owner Trustee under this Owner Trust Agreement or any of the
Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.03, nor shall the Owner
Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given.

     Section 4.10 DOING BUSINESS IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, neither [Name of Owner Trustee] nor
the Owner Trustee shall be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other
than in the State of Delaware if the taking of such action will, even after the
appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee in accordance with Section 9.05
hereof, (i) require the consent or approval or authorization or order of or the
giving of notice to, or the registration with or the taking of any other action
in respect of, any state or other governmental authority or agency of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (ii) result in any fee, tax or
other governmental charge under the laws of the State of Delaware becoming

Paying Agent shall distribute to the Certificateholder all funds on deposit in
the Certificate Distribution Account and available therefor (as provided in
Section 3.05 of the Indenture), as the Certificate Distribution Amount for such

     (b) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the distributions
(or allocations of income) to the Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the
amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this
Section 5.01. The Certificate Paying Agent is hereby authorized and directed to
retain or cause to be retained from amounts otherwise distributable to the
Certificateholder sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally
owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee
from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment
of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The
amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to the Certificateholder
shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is
withheld by the Certificate Paying Agent. The amount of any such withholding tax
shall be remitted by the Certificate Paying Agent, as required, to the
appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is
payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S.
Certificateholder), the Certificate Paying Agent may in its sole discretion
withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (b).

     (c) Distributions to any Certificateholders shall be subordinated to the
creditors of the Trust, including the Noteholders.

     (d) Allocations of profits and losses, as determined for federal income tax
purposes, shall be made to the Certificateholders on a pro rata basis based on

required to be made to the Certificateholder on any Payment Date as provided in
Section 5.01 shall be made to the Certificateholder of record on the preceding
Record Date either by, in the case of any Certificateholder owning Certificates,
having denominations aggregating at least $1,000,000, wire transfer, in
immediately available funds, to the account of such Holder at a bank or other
entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall
have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions at
least five Business Days prior to such Payment Date or, if not, by check mailed
to such Certificateholder at the address of such Holder appearing in the
Certificate Register.

     Section 5.03 SIGNATURE ON RETURNS. The Administrator shall sign on behalf
of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust.

owner electing to be disregarded as a separate entity for purposes of federal
and state income tax, franchise tax and any other tax measured in whole or in
part by income, with the Notes being debt of the Trust, as further set forth in
Section 2.06.

copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any
corporate party as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly
adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any
fact or matter the method of determination of which is not specifically
prescribed herein, the Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a
certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer
or other authorized officers of the relevant party, as to such fact or matter
and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Owner Trustee for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

     (b) In the exercise or administration of the Trust hereunder and in the
performance of its duties and obligations under this Owner Trust Agreement or
the Basic Documents, the Owner Trustee (i) may act directly or through its
agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees (including persons acting under a
power of attorney) pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the
Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents,
attorneys, custodians or nominees (including persons acting under a power of
attorney) if such persons have been selected by the Owner Trustee with
reasonable care, and (ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and other
skilled persons to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it at the
expense of the Trust. The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for anything done,
suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion or advice
of any such counsel, accountants or other such Persons.

the correctness thereof. The Owner Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or sufficiency of this Owner Trust Agreement, of any Basic Document or
of the Certificate (other than the signatures of the Owner Trustee on the
Certificate) or the Notes, or of any Related Documents. The Owner Trustee shall
at no time have any responsibility or liability with respect to the sufficiency
of the Owner Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to be
distributed to the Certificateholder under this Owner Trust Agreement or the
Noteholders under the Indenture, including, the compliance by the Depositor or
the Seller with any warranty or representation made under any Basic Document or
in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation,
or any action of the Certificate Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the
Indenture Trustee taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

hereunder and under the Basic Documents, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, experts and counsel
as the Owner Trustee may reasonably employ in connection with the exercise and
performance of its rights and its duties hereunder and under the Basic Documents
which shall be payable by the Seller.

     Section 7.02 INDEMNIFICATION. The Seller, the Depositor and the Trust (on a
joint and several basis) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Owner
Trustee, both as Owner Trustee and in its individual capacity, and its

Parties") from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, taxes, claims, actions and suits, and any and all reasonable costs,
expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any

<PAGE>



          (i) the Seller shall not be liable for or required to indemnify an
     Indemnified Party from and against Expenses arising or resulting from the
     Owner Trustee's willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith or as a
     result of any inaccuracy of a representation or warranty contained in
     Section 6.03 expressly made by the Owner Trustee;

          (ii) with respect to any such claim, the Indemnified Party shall have
     given the Seller written notice thereof promptly after the Indemnified
     Party shall have actual knowledge thereof;

          (iii) while maintaining control over its own defense, the Seller shall
     consult with the Indemnified Party in preparing such defense; and

          (iv) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the

     Party entered into without the prior consent of the Seller which consent
     shall not be unreasonably withheld.

removal of the Owner Trustee or the termination of this Owner Trust Agreement.
In the event of any claim, action or proceeding for which indemnity will be
sought pursuant to this Section 7.02, the Owner Trustee's choice of legal
counsel, if other than the legal counsel retained by the Owner Trustee in
connection with the execution and delivery of this Owner Trust Agreement, shall
be subject to the approval of the Servicer, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. In addition, upon written notice to the Owner Trustee and
with the consent of the Owner Trustee which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, the Servicer has the right to assume the defense of any claim, action
or proceeding against the Owner Trustee.

     Section 8.01 TERMINATION OF OWNER TRUST AGREEMENT. (a) The Trust shall
dissolve upon the earlier of (i) the final distribution of all moneys or other
property or proceeds of the Owner Trust Estate in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture and this Owner Trust Agreement or (ii) the Final Maturity Date.
The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of the
Certificateholder shall not (x) operate to terminate this Owner Trust Agreement
or the Trust or (y) entitle such Certificateholder's legal representatives or
heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court
for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the Trust or the Owner Trust
Estate or (z) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto.

     (b) Except as provided in Section 8.01(a), neither the Depositor nor the

     (c) Notice of any dissolution of the Trust, specifying the Payment Date
upon which the Certificateholder shall surrender its Certificate to the
Certificate Paying Agent for payment of the final distribution and cancellation,
shall be given by the Certificate Paying Agent by letter to the
Certificateholder mailed within five Business Days of receipt of notice of such

pursuant to Section 3.10, the Certificate shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Certificate Paying Agent may take appropriate steps, or may
appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost
thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain
subject to this Owner Trust Agreement. Any funds remaining in the Certificate
Distribution Account after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by
the Certificate Paying Agent to the Servicer.

                                   ARTICLE IX

             Successor Owner Trustees and Additional Owner Trustees

     Section 9.01 ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR OWNER TRUSTEE. The Owner Trustee
shall at all times be a corporation satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a)
of the Statutory Trust Statute; authorized to exercise corporate trust powers;
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authorities; and having (or
having a parent that has) long term debt obligations with a rating of at least A
(or the equivalent) by Standard & Poor's and/or Moody's. If such corporation
shall publish 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, 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 Owner Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section
9.01, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in Section 9.02.

     Section 9.02 REPLACEMENT OF OWNER TRUSTEE. The Owner Trustee may at any
time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving 30 days
prior written notice thereof to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly
appoint a successor Owner Trustee, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy
of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and to the
successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

     If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 9.01 and shall fail to resign after written
request therefor by the Indenture Trustee, or if at any time the Owner Trustee
shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the Indenture Trustee remove the Owner Trustee. If the
Indenture Trustee shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the
immediately preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly appoint a
successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one
copy to the successor Owner Trustee, and shall pay all fees owed to the outgoing
Owner Trustee.

     Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a
successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner
Trustee pursuant to Section 9.03 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to
the outgoing Owner Trustee.

     Section 9.03 SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEE. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed
pursuant to Section 9.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Indenture
Trustee and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment under this Owner Trust Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or
removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective, and such
successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor under this Owner Trust Agreement, with like effect as if originally
named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its
fees and expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and
statements and monies held by it under this Owner Trust Agreement; and the
predecessor Owner 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 Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and
obligations.

     No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 9.03 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee
shall be eligible pursuant to Section 9.01.

     Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to
this Section 9.03, the Indenture Trustee shall mail notice thereof to all
Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating
Agencies. If the Indenture Trustee shall fail to mail such notice within 10 days
after acceptance of such appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the
successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of
the Indenture Trustee.

     Section 9.04 MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF OWNER TRUSTEE. Any Person into
which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, without
the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any
of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding;
provided, that such Person shall be eligible pursuant to Section 9.01 and,
provided, further, that the Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or
consolidation to the Rating Agencies.

     Section 9.05 APPOINTMENT OF CO-TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE TRUSTEE. Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Owner Trust Agreement, at any time, for the purpose
of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the
Owner Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Owner Trustee shall have the
power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more
Persons to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate
trustee or trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest
in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Trust or any part thereof
and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Owner Trust Agreement
shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Owner Trustee
pursuant to Section 9.01 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or
separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 9.03.

<PAGE>



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

     (a) All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon
the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the
Owner 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 Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent
that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are
to be performed, the Owner 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 Owner Trust Estate or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed
singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of
the Owner Trustee;

     (b) No trustee under this Owner Trust Agreement shall be personally liable
by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Owner Trust
Agreement; and

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

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

     Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner
Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the
extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this
Owner Trust Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or
co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of
its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor co-trustee or separate trustee.

evidencing a 100% interest in the Owner Trust Estate, the property of which
consists primarily of the Loans, created by NOMURA ASSET ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
(hereinafter called the "Depositor" which term includes any successor entity
under the Agreement referred to below).

         This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Owner Trust
Estate, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in the Company, the
Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or any of their
affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the Loans is guaranteed or insured by
any governmental agency or instrumentality or by the Company, the Seller, the
Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or any of their affiliates.
None of the Company, the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner
Trustee, or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the
Certificate.

         This certifies that [name of Holder] is the registered owner of the
Certificate Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate (as set forth on
the face hereof) in certain distributions with respect to the Owner Trust
Estate, consisting primarily of the Loans created by the Depositor. The Trust
(as defined herein) was created pursuant to a Owner Trust Agreement dated as
specified above (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the "Agreement")
between the Company and [Name of Owner Trustee], as owner trustee (the "Owner
Trustee," which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), a
summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.
To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the
meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is
subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which
Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof
assents and by which such Holder is bound.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (the "Payment Date"), commencing on the first
Payment Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
in an amount equal to the pro rata portion evidenced by this Certificate (based
on the Certificate Percentage Interest stated on the face


                                       A-2

hereof) of the Certificate Distribution Amount required to be distributed to
Holders of Certificates on such Payment Date. Distributions on this Certificate
will be made as provided in the Agreement by the Certificate Paying Agent by
wire transfer or check mailed to the Certificateholder of record in the
Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of this Certificate
or the making of any notation hereon.

         Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and notwithstanding the
above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice
by the Certificate Paying Agent of the pendency of such distribution and only
upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency
maintained by the Certificate Registrar for that purpose in the City and State
of New York.

         No transfer of this Certificate will be made unless such transfer is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with
said Act and laws. In the event that such a transfer is to be made, (i) the
Certificate Registrar or the Company may require an opinion of counsel
acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar and the Company that such transfer is exempt (describing the
applicable exemption and the basis therefor) from or is being made pursuant to
the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and of
any applicable statute of any state and (ii) the transferee shall execute an
investment letter in the form described in the Agreement and (iii) the
Certificate Registrar shall require the transferee to execute an investment
letter in the form described by the Agreement, which investment letter shall not
be at the expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or
the Company. The Holder hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does
hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Company, the
Servicer and the Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if
the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws. In connection with any such transfer, the Certificate Registrar
(unless otherwise directed by the Company) will also require either (i) a
representation letter, in the form of Exhibit F to the Agreement, stating that
the transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the
prohibited transaction restrictions or the fiduciary responsibility requirements
of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code ("Plan"), any person acting, directly or
indirectly, on behalf of any such plan or any person using the "plan assets,"
within the meaning of the Department of Labor regulations at 29 C.F.R.
ss.2510.3- 101, to effect such acquisition (collectively, a "Plan Investor") or
(ii) if such transferee is a Plan Investor, an opinion of counsel acceptable to
and in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, the Owner Trustee, the
Servicer and the Certificate Registrar to the effect that the purchase or
holding of the Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not
constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments)
and will not subject the Company, the Owner Trustee, the Servicer or the
Certificate Registrar to any obligation or liability in addition to those
undertaken in the Agreement.

         This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as ______ Trust Asset-Backed Certificates of the Series specified
hereon (herein collectively called the "Certificates"). All terms used in this
Certificate which are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings assigned

Account that have been released from the Lien of the Indenture for payment

Company is personally liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable
under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

         The Holder of this Certificate acknowledges and agrees that its rights
to receive distributions in respect of this Certificate are subordinated to the
rights of the Noteholders as described in the Indenture, dated as of
_______________, between ______ Trust Series ____-__ (the "Trust") and [Name of
Indenture Trustee], as Indenture Trustee (the "Indenture").

         The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of the Certificate, covenants
and agrees that such Certificateholder will not, prior to the day one year and

in connection with any obligations relating to the Certificate, the Notes, the
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

         The Agreement permits the amendment thereof as specified below,
provided that any amendment be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the Owner
Trustee to the effect that such amendment complies with the provisions of the
Agreement and will not cause the Trust to be subject to an entity level tax. If
the purpose of the amendment is to correct any mistake, eliminate any
inconsistency, cure any ambiguity or deal with any matter not covered, it shall
not be necessary to obtain the consent of any Holder, but the Owner Trustee
shall be furnished with a letter from the Rating Agencies that the amendment
will not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the rating then assigned to
any of the Notes. If the purpose of the amendment is to prevent the imposition
of any federal or state taxes at any time that any Security is outstanding, it
shall not be necessary to obtain the consent of the any Holder, but the Owner
Trustee shall be furnished with an Opinion of Counsel that such amendment is
necessary or helpful to prevent the imposition of such taxes and is not
materially adverse to any Holder. If the purpose of the amendment is to add or
eliminate or change any provision of the Agreement, other than as specified in
the preceding two sentences, the amendment shall require either (a) a letter
from the Rating Agencies that the amendment will not result in the downgrading
or withdrawal of the rating then assigned to any of the Notes or (b) the consent
of Certificateholder and the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that no such
amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the time of,
payments received that are required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of the related Certificateholder, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to any
such amendment without the consent of the Holders of all such Certificates then
outstanding.

         As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the
offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained in the City and
State of New York, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or

designated transferee. The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the
Agreement is the Owner Trustee.

         The Certificate is issuable only in minimum denominations of a 100%
Certificate Percentage Interest.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in
connection therewith.

         The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Paying Agent, the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Paying Agent, or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee,
the Certificate Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or any such agent shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary.

         This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware.

         The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificate
and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the final
distribution of all moneys or other property or proceeds of the Owner Trust
Estate in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Agreement or (ii)
the Final Maturity Date.

         Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been
executed by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee, or an authenticating
agent by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit
under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge
or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A
Securities or any other similar security from, or otherwise approached or
negotiated with respect to the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule
144A Securities or any other similar security with, any person in any manner, or
made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other
manner, or taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the
Rule 144A Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), or that would render the disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a
violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto,
and that the Seller has not offered the Rule 144A Securities to any person other
than the Buyer or another "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in Rule
144A under the 1933 Act.

         2. The Buyer warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the Owner
Trustee and the Depositor (as defined in the Owner Trust Agreement (the

trustee, as follows:

         not been registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of any
         state.

                  b. The Buyer considers itself a substantial, sophisticated
         institutional investor having such knowledge and experience in
         financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the
         merits and risks of investment in the Rule 144A Securities.

                  c. The Buyer has been furnished with all information regarding
         the Rule 144A Securities that it has requested from the Seller, the
         Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Servicer.

<PAGE>



                  d. Neither the Buyer nor anyone acting on its behalf has
         offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of the Rule
         144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other
         similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a
         transfer, pledge or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any
         interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security
         from, or otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Rule
         144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other
         similar security with, any person in any manner, or made any general
         solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or
         taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the
         Rule 144A Securities under the 1933 Act or that would render the
         disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a violation of Section 5 of the
         1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto, nor will it act, nor
         has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in such

         thereto. The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any of the
