                (h)   Unless otherwise specified in the Supplemental Fee Letter,
interest calculated by reference to the Commercial Paper Rate or the Adjusted

whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made

<PAGE>

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any payment due hereunder
becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the payment date
thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall
accrue thereon at the applicable rate during such extension. To the extent that
(i) the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller or the Servicer makes a
payment to the Administrative Agent or a Class C Purchaser or (ii) the
Administrative Agent or a Class C Purchaser receives or is deemed to have
received any payment or proceeds for application to an obligation, which payment
or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, state or
Federal law, common law, or for equitable cause, then, to the extent such
payment or proceeds are set aside, the obligation or part thereof intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such
payment or proceeds had not been received or deemed received by the
Administrative Agent or Class C Purchaser, as the case may be.

                (j)   At or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Note

of (i) its Commercial Paper Rate, if applicable, for each Tranche in effect for
the related Monthly Period or Interest Accrual Period, as applicable, and (ii)
if applicable, the date on which the Alternative Rate became applicable to its
Percentage Interest of the Class C Note Principal Balance or a portion thereof
pursuant to subsection 2.2(b) of this Agreement. Such notification may be based
on such CP Conduit's good faith estimate of the Commercial Paper Rate if the
actual rate is not then known to such CP Conduit, and in such case, such CP
Conduit shall notify the Administrative Agent at or before 4:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the following Note Rate Determination Date of the amount of any
variation between interest payable to such CP Conduit for the preceding Monthly
Period or Interest Accrual Period, as applicable, based on such estimate and
interest which should have been payable to such CP Conduit for such Monthly
Period or Interest Accrual Period, as applicable, based on its final
determination of the applicable Commercial Paper Rate. The amount of any
shortfall in interest based on such variation shall be included in the portion
of Class C Monthly Interest payable to such CP Conduit on the following
Distribution Date, and the amount of any overpayment of interest to such CP
Conduit based on such variation shall be credited, dollar for dollar, against
the portion of Class C Monthly Interest otherwise payable to such CP Conduit for
the following Monthly Period. Each determination by a CP Conduit of its
applicable Commercial Paper Rate pursuant to this Agreement shall be conclusive
and binding on the Class C Purchasers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuer, the
Seller, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee in the absence of manifest error.

                (k)   On each Note Rate Determination Date, (i) the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Servicer, with respect to each CP Conduit,
of the applicable Commercial Paper Rates for the related Monthly Period, and, if
applicable, the dates on which the Alternative Rate was applicable to the
Percentage Interest of the Class C Note Principal Balance owed to any Class C
Purchaser, and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Servicer of the
Alternative Rate and the Risk Rate, if applicable, for the related Monthly
Period. For such purposes, the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on
notices from CP Conduits as to the interest rate or rates from time to time
applicable to their respective Percentage Interest of the Class C Note Principal
Balance. Such notification from the Administrative Agent may be based on such CP
Conduit's good faith estimate of the Commercial Paper Rate as provided to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.2(j) hereof, if the actual rate
and amount is not then known to the

                                      -13-

Administrative Agent. In any such case, the Administrative Agent shall notify
the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee on or before the next succeeding Note
Rate Determination Date of the amount of any variation between the estimated
amount of interest payable on Class C Notes accrued at the Commercial Paper Rate
and the actual amount thereof for the preceding Monthly Period. The amount of
any shortfall in interest based on such variation shall be a positive "Estimated
                                                                       ---------

Adjustment" for such Monthly Period. Any positive Estimated Interest Adjustment
for a Monthly Period shall be deemed not due on the Distribution Date for such
Monthly Period, but shall be due on the next succeeding Distribution Date. An
Estimated Interest Adjustment shall not bear interest, unless not paid when due
as provided in the preceding sentence. Each determination of the Commercial
Paper Rate, the Alternative Rate and the Risk Rate by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on
the Class C Purchasers, the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee in
the absence of manifest error.

from the following Distribution Date, until payment in full thereof (after as
well as before judgment) at the Prime Rate in effect from time to time.

                (b)   In the event that any Class C Purchaser shall have
reasonably determined that any Regulatory Change regarding capital adequacy has
the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Class C Purchaser's capital or
on the capital of any Person controlling such Class C Purchaser as a consequence
of its obligations hereunder or its maintenance of its Commitment or its
interest in the Class C Notes to a level below that which such Class C Purchaser
or such Person could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into
consideration such Class C Purchaser's or such Person's policies with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Class C Purchaser or such Person
to be material, then, from time to time, after submission by such Class C
                ----
Purchaser to the Administrative Agent of a written request therefor and
submission by the Administrative Agent to the Issuer and the Servicer of such
written request therefor, the Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Class C Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Class C Purchaser or such

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

Person, as applicable, for such reduction, together with interest on any such
unpaid amount from the Distribution Date following receipt by the Issuer of such
request for compensation under this subsection 2.3(b), if such request is
received by the Issuer at least five Business Days prior to the Determination
Date related to such Distribution Date, and otherwise from the following
Distribution Date, until payment in full thereof (after as well as before
judgment) at the Prime Rate in effect from time to time. Nothing in this
subsection 2.3(b) shall be deemed to require the Issuer to pay any amount to a
Class C Purchaser to the extent such Class C Purchaser has been compensated
therefor under another provision of this Agreement or to the extent such amount
is already reflected in the applicable interest rate.

          (c)  Each Class C Purchaser agrees that it shall use its reasonable
efforts to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any claim for compensation pursuant to
subsections 2.3(a) and 2.3(b) of this Agreement, including but not limited to
designating a different Investing Office for its Class C Notes (or any interest
therein) if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of,
any increased amounts referred to in subsection 2.3(a) or 2.3(b) hereof and will
not, in the reasonable opinion of such Class C Purchaser, be unlawful or
otherwise disadvantageous to such Class C Purchaser or inconsistent with its
policies or result in any unreimbursed cost or expense to such Class C Purchaser
or in an increase in the aggregate amount payable under subsections 2.3(a) and
2.3(b) hereof.

          (d)  Each Class C Purchaser claiming increased amounts described in
subsection 2.3(a) or 2.3(b) of this Agreement will furnish to the Administrative
Agent (together with its request for compensation) a certificate prepared in
good faith setting forth the basis and the calculation of the amount (in
reasonable detail) of each request by such Class C Purchaser for any such
increased amounts referred to in subsection 2.3(a) or 2.3(b) hereof. Any such
certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Administrative
Agent shall deliver a copy thereof to the Issuer and the Servicer. Failure on
the part of any Class C Purchaser to demand compensation for any amount pursuant
to subsection 2.3(a) or 2.3(b) hereof with respect to any period shall not
constitute a waiver of such Class C Purchaser's right to demand compensation
with respect to such period.

          (e)  If (i) the Issuer becomes obligated to pay additional amounts to
any Class C Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.3(a) or, (ii) any Class C Purchaser
gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Section 2.3(b)
that continues for more than 90 days, or (iii) any Class C Purchaser refuses to
consent to any amendment, waiver or other action requested by Issuer, then, in
each case Issuer may designate a bank which is acceptable to the Administrative
Agent in its reasonable discretion (such other bank, a "Replacement Bank") to
purchase the related Class C Note, without recourse to or warranty by, or
expense to, the affected Class C Purchaser for a purchase price equal to the
outstanding principal amount of the Class C Notes held by the related Class C
Note Purchaser plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Class C Notes and
all accrued but unpaid fees owed to the affected Class C Purchaser and any other
amounts payable to the affected Class C Purchaser hereunder, and, upon such
purchase, such Class C Purchaser shall no longer be party hereto or have any
rights hereunder (other than indemnities and other similar rights applicable to
such Class C Purchaser prior to the date of such assignment and assumption) and
shall be relieved from all obligations to the Issuer hereunder, and the
Replacement Bank shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Class C
Purchaser hereunder.

          2.4  Taxes.
               -----

          (a)  All payments made to the Class C Purchasers or the Administrative
Agent under this Agreement and the Indenture (including all amounts payable with
respect to the Class C Notes) shall, to the extent allowed by law, be made free
and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any
present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied,
collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (collectively,
"Taxes"), excluding (i) income taxes (including branch profit taxes, minimum
 -----
taxes and taxes computed under alternative methods, at least one of which is
based on or measured by net income), franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of income
taxes), or any other taxes based on or measured by the net income of such Class
C Purchaser, Participant or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) or the
gross receipts or income of such Class C Purchaser, Participant or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be); (ii) any Taxes that would not have
been imposed but for the failure of such Class C Purchaser, Participant or the
Administrative Agent, as applicable, to provide and keep current (to the extent
legally able) any certification or other documentation required to qualify for
an exemption from, or reduced rate of, any such Taxes or required by this
Agreement to be furnished by such Class C Purchaser, Participant or the
Administrative Agent, as applicable; and (iii) any Taxes imposed as a result of
a change by any Class C Purchaser or Participant of its Investing Office (other
than changes mandated by this Agreement, including subsection 2.3(c) hereof, or
required by law) (all such excluded taxes being hereinafter called "Excluded
                                                                    --------
Taxes"). If, as a result of any change in law, treaty or regulation or in the
-----
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental or regulatory
agency or body charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, or the
adoption of any law, treaty or regulation, any Taxes, other than Excluded Taxes,
are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to a Class C Purchaser or
the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the Indenture, then after submission
                                                           ----
by any Class C Purchaser to the Administrative Agent (in the case of an amount
payable to a Class C Purchaser) and by the Administrative Agent to the Issuer
and the Servicer of a written request therefor, the amounts so payable to such
Class C Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall be increased
by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Class C Purchaser or for its own account or to the
Administrative Agent, as applicable, the amount of such increase to the extent
necessary to yield to such Class C Purchaser or Agent or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable (after payment of all such Taxes) interest or any such
other amounts payable hereunder or thereunder at the rates or in the amounts
specified in this Agreement and the Indenture; provided, however, that the
                                               --------  -------
amounts so payable to such Class C Purchaser or the Administrative Agent shall
not be increased pursuant to this subsection 2.4(a) if such requirement to
withhold results from the failure of such Person to comply with subsection
2.4(c) hereof. Whenever any Taxes are payable on or with respect to amounts
distributed to a Class C Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, as promptly as
possible thereafter the Servicer shall send to such Class C Purchaser or the
Administrative Agent a certified copy of an original official receipt showing
payment thereof. If the Issuer fails to pay any Taxes when due to the
appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to such Class C Purchaser or the
Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary
evidence, the Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of such
Class C Purchaser or the Administrative Agent for its own account, as
applicable, any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable
by such Class C Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, as a
result of any such failure.

                                      -16-

<PAGE>

          (b)  A Class C Purchaser claiming increased amounts under subsection
2.4(a) hereof for Taxes paid or payable by such Class C Purchaser will furnish
to the Administrative Agent a certificate prepared in good faith setting forth
the basis and amount of each request by such Class C Purchaser for such Taxes,
and the Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy thereof to the Issuer and the
Servicer. The Administrative Agent claiming increased amounts under subsection
2.4(a) hereof for its own account for Taxes paid or payable by the
Administrative Agent, will furnish to the Issuer and the Servicer a certificate
prepared in good faith setting forth the basis and amount of each request by the
Administrative Agent for such Taxes. Any such certificate of a Class C Purchaser
or the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Failure
on the part of any Class C Purchaser or the Administrative Agent to demand
additional amounts pursuant to subsection 2.4(a) of this Agreement with respect
to any period shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such Class C
Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to demand
compensation with respect to such period. All such amounts shall be due and
payable to the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Class C Purchaser or the
Administrative Agent for its own account, as the case may be, on the
Distribution Date following receipt by the Issuer of such certificate, if such
certificate is received by the Issuer at least five Business Days prior to the
Determination Date related to such Distribution Date and otherwise shall be due
and payable on the following Distribution Date (or, if earlier, on the Series
Termination Date).

          (c)  Each Class C Purchaser and each Participant holding an interest
in Class C Notes agrees that prior to the date on which the first interest or
fee payment hereunder is due thereto, it will deliver to the Issuer, the Seller,
the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent (i) if such
Class C Purchaser or Participant is not incorporated under the laws of the
United States or any State thereof, two duly completed copies of the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN claiming treaty benefits, or
in either case successor applicable forms required to evidence that the Class C
Purchaser or Participant is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement
and with respect to the Class C Notes without deduction or withholding of any
United States federal income taxes, (ii) a duly completed U.S. Internal Revenue
Service Form W-9 or successor applicable or required forms, and (iii) such other
forms and information as may be required to confirm the availability of any
applicable exemption from United States federal, state or local withholding
taxes. Each Class C Purchaser or Participant holding an interest in Class C
Notes also agrees to deliver to the Issuer, the Seller, the Servicer, the
Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent two further copies of such Form
W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN and Form W-9, or such successor applicable forms or other
manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such
form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring
a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it hereunder, and such
extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by the Servicer,
the Seller or the Administrative Agent, unless in any such case, solely as a
result of a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring prior to the date on
which any such delivery would otherwise be required, the Class C Purchaser is no
longer eligible to deliver the then-applicable form set forth above and so
advises the Servicer, the Seller and the Administrative Agent. Each Class C
Purchaser certifies, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date, each
Assignee and each Participant (in either case other than a Support Party) shall
certify, represent and warrant as a condition of acquiring its Assignment or
Participation as of the effective date of the Transfer Supplement to which it is
a party or of such Participation, as the case may be, and each Support Party
shall certify, represent and warrant as of the effective date of its becoming a
Support Party, that (x) it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

and with respect to the Class C Notes without deduction or withholding of any
United States federal income taxes and (y) it is entitled to an exemption from
United States backup withholding tax. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, each of the Issuer, the Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to
withhold any amount that it reasonably determines is required to be withheld
pursuant to Section 1446 of the Code, and such amount shall be deemed to have
been paid to the Class C Purchaser, Assignee or Participant for all purposes of
the Agreement.

          2.5  Indemnification.
               ---------------

          (a)  The Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent and each Class C Purchaser and any director, officer,
employee or agent thereof (each such Person being an "Indemnitee") from and
                                                      ----------
against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses
(including reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel) whatsoever
(including claims under federal or state securities laws), which the Indemnitee
may incur (or which may be claimed against the Indemnitee) by reason of or in
connection with (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any Related
Document or the Class C Notes or the assignment hereof to any Support Party,
(ii) the offer and sale by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Seller or any of
their affiliates of the Series 2001-A Notes or (iii) the other transactions
contemplated hereby, except (A) to the extent that any such claim, damage, loss,
liability, cost or expense shall be caused by the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of the Indemnitee, (B) to the extent that any such claim, damage,
loss, liability, cost or expense relates to Taxes or amounts payable by the
Issuer under Section 2.3 or 2.4 hereof, (C) for recourse for the payment of
principal of or interest on, or other amounts due in respect of, the Class C
Notes as a result of nonpayment by Obligors on the Accounts or the related
Receivables or (D) is attributable to market fluctuations or other similar
market or investment risk associated with ownership of the Class C Notes. The
foregoing indemnity shall include indemnification for any claims, damages,
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel)
to which the Indemnitee may become subject under the Act, the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, or any other Federal or state law or regulation (including Federal
banking laws and regulations) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement at
the time it became effective or the Prospectus or any amendments thereof or
supplements thereto or arising out of or based upon the omission or the alleged
omission to state a material fact necessary to make the statements in the
Registration Statement at the time it became effective or the Prospectus or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances in which
they were made, not misleading. Subject to the limitations set forth above, but
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any
time (including at any time following the payment of the obligations under this
Agreement, including payment of the Class C Note Principal Balance) be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating
to or arising out of this Agreement, or any documents contemplated by or
referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken
or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the
foregoing; provided that the Servicer shall not be liable under this sentence
           --------
for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of the Administrative

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

Agent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Promptly
after receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Class C Purchaser of notice of
the commencement of any action, the Administrative Agent or Class C Purchaser,
as the case may be, will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made under this
subsection 2.5(a), notify the Servicer in writing of the commencement thereof;
provided, however, the omission to so notify the Servicer will not relieve the
--------  -------
Servicer from any liability which it may have to the Administrative Agent or
Class C Purchaser under this subsection 2.5(a) except to the extent the Servicer
was actually prejudiced by the failure to give such notices promptly.

          (b)  FCNB and any Successor Servicer, by accepting its appointment
pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, (i) shall agree to be bound by
the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein applicable to the Servicer
and to be subject to the duties and obligations of the Servicer hereunder, (ii)
as of the date of its acceptance, shall be deemed to have made with respect to
itself only the representations and warranties made by the Servicer in
subsections 4.1(a) through 4.1(e) hereof (in the case of subsection 4.1(a) with
appropriate factual changes) and (iii) shall agree to indemnify and hold
harmless any Indemnitee from and against any and all claims, damages, losses,
liabilities, costs or expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel)
whatsoever which such Indemnitee may incur (or which may be claimed against such
Indemnitee) by reason of the negligence or willful misconduct of such Servicer
in exercising its powers and carrying out its obligations under this Agreement,
the Transfer and Servicing Agreement or any Related Document.

          (c)  In the event that for any reason, (i) the basis for calculation
of interest on any CP Conduit's Percentage Interest of the Class C Note
Principal Balance shall change from the Commercial Paper Rate to the Alternative
Rate, (ii) any CP Conduit receives any repayment of its share of the Class C
Note Principal Balance, and the date of such change or of such repayment is not
the maturity date for all Commercial Paper Notes allocated by such CP Conduit to
funding its purchase or maintenance of the affected portion of its Percentage
Interest of the Class C Note Principal Balance, or (iii) any Class C Purchaser
receives any repayment of its share of the Class C Note Principal Balance on a
date other than a Distribution Date or upon fewer than two Business Days' prior
(or, with respect to amounts listed at the Alternative Rate based on the
Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, two Business Days') written notice, then in any such
                                                              ----
case the Issuer agrees to indemnify each affected Class C Purchaser against, and
to promptly pay on demand directly to such Class C Purchaser the amount equal to
any loss or reasonable out-of-pocket expense suffered by such Class C Purchaser
as a result of such change or such repayment, including, in the case of a CP
Conduit, any actual loss, cost or expense suffered by such CP Conduit by reason
of its issuance of Commercial Paper Notes or its incurrence of other obligations
reasonably allocated by such CP Conduit to its funding or the maintenance of its
funding of its share of the Class C Note Principal Balance, or, in the case of
any Class C Purchaser, redeploying funds prepaid or repaid, in amounts which
correspond to its share of the Class C Note Principal Balance. A statement
setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations of any additional amounts
payable pursuant to this Section submitted by a Class C Purchaser or Agent or by
the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to the Issuer and the Servicer and
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

                    ARTICLE 4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          4.1  Representations and Warranties of FCNB. FCNB represents and
               --------------------------------------
warrants to the Class C Purchasers and the Administrative Agent that the
representations and warranties of FCNB (as Servicer) set forth in the Transfer
and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the other Related Documents are true
and correct as of the date hereof (except for representations or warranties
which relate to a specific date, which shall be true and correct as of such
date). FCNB further represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each Class C
Purchaser and the Administrative Agent that, as of the date hereof:

          (a)  FCNB is a national banking association duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America,
with full power and authority under such laws to own its properties and conduct
its business as such properties are presently owned and such business is
presently conducted and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under
this Agreement and the Related Documents to which it is a party.

          (b)  FCNB has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
this Agreement and the Related Documents to which it is a party and all the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and has taken all necessary action
to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and such
Related Documents. When executed and delivered, each of this Agreement and each
Related Document to which FCNB is a party will constitute the legal, valid and
binding agreement of FCNB, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting creditors' rights generally and the rights of creditors from time to
time in effect. The enforceability of FCNB's obligations under such agreements
is also subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such

                       ARTICLE 7 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

                7.1   Appointment. Each Class C Purchaser hereby irrevocably
                      -----------
designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Class C
Purchaser under this Agreement, and each such Class C Purchaser irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, as the agent for such Class C Purchaser, to
take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Related Documents and
to exercise such powers and perform such duties thereunder as are expressly
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Related Documents,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Class C
Purchaser, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist
against any Administrative Agent.

                7.2   Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute
                      --------------------
any of its duties under any of the Related Documents by or through agents or
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care.

                7.3   Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent
                      ----------------------
nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates shall be (a) liable to any of the Class C Purchasers for any action
lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in
connection with any of the other Related Documents (except for its or such
Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any
manner to any of the Class C Purchasers for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties made by the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer, the Issuer
or the Indenture Trustee or any officer thereof contained in any of the other
Related Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document
referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or
in connection with, any of the other Related Documents or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any of the other Related Documents or for any failure of the
Seller, FCNB, the Servicer, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee to perform its
obligations thereunder. No Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to
any Class C Purchaser to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or
performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, any of the
other Related Documents, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the
Seller, FCNB, the Servicer, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.

                7.4   Reliance by Agents. The Administrative Agent shall be
                      ------------------
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram,
telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, written statement, order or other
document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Administrative Agent),
independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take
any action under any of the Related Documents unless it shall first receive such
advice or concurrence of the Required Class C Owners as it deems appropriate or
it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Class C Purchasers
against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason
of taking or continuing to

                                      -32-

<PAGE>

take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any of the Related
Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Class C Owners, and such
request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding
upon all present and future Class C Purchasers.

                7.5   Notices. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to
                      -------
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any breach of this Agreement or
the occurrence of any Series 2001-A Pay Out Event unless the Administrative
Agent has received notice from the Seller, the Issuer, the Servicer, the
Indenture Trustee or any Class C Purchaser, referring to this Agreement and
describing such event. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such
a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Class C Purchasers. The
Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall
be reasonably directed by the Required Class C Owners; provided that unless and
                                                       --------
until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such event as it shall deem
advisable in the best interests of the Class C Purchasers.

                7.6   Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Class C Purchasers. Each
                      --------------------------------------------------
Class C Purchaser expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by
the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of
the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent
to any Class C Purchaser. Each Class C Purchaser represents to the
Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Class C Purchaser, and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer, the Issuer,
First Consumers Master Trust, the Collateral Certificate, the Accounts, the
Receivables and the Indenture Trustee and made its own decision to purchase its
interest in the Class C Notes hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each
Class C Purchaser also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Class C Purchaser, and based
on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not
taking action under any of the Related Documents, and to make such investigation
as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property,
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Seller, FCNB, the
Servicer, the Issuer, First Consumers Master Trust, the Collateral Certificate,
the Accounts, the Receivables and the Indenture Trustee. Except for notices,
reports and other documents received by the Administrative Agent under Section 5
hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Class C Purchaser with any credit or other information concerning
the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise),
prospects or creditworthiness of the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer, the Issuer,
First Consumers Master Trust, the Collateral Certificate, the Accounts, the
Receivables or the Indenture Trustee which may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

                7.7   Indemnification. The Purchasers (other than the CP
                      ---------------
Conduits)  agree to indemnify  the  Administrative  Agent in its capacity as
such (without limiting the obligation (if

                                      -33-

<PAGE>

any) of the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer or the Issuer to reimburse the
Administrative Agent for any such amounts), ratably according to their
respective Percentage Interests from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time
(including at any time following the payment of the obligations under this
Agreement, including the Class C Note Principal Balance) be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement, or any documents contemplated by or referred to
herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by
the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing;
provided that no Class C Purchaser shall be liable for the payment of any
--------
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of the Administrative Agent
resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in
this subsection shall survive the payment of the obligations under this
Agreement, including the Class C Note Principal Balance.

                7.8   Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent
                      --------------------------------
and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage
in any kind of business with the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer or the Issuer as
though the Administrative Agent were not an agent hereunder. In addition, the
Class C Purchasers acknowledges that DBNY may act (i) as administrator, sponsor
or agent for one or more CP Conduits and in such capacity acts and may continue
to act on behalf of each such CP Conduit in connection with its business, and
(ii) as the agent for certain financial institutions under the liquidity and
credit enhancement agreements relating to this Agreement to which any one or
more CP Conduits is party and in various other capacities relating to the
business of any such CP Conduit under various agreements. DBNY, in its capacity
as Administrative Agent, shall not, by virtue of its acting in any such other
capacities, be deemed to have duties or responsibilities hereunder or be held to
a standard of care in connection with the performance of its duties as the
Administrative Agent other than as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any
Person which is the Administrative Agent may act as the Administrative Agent
without regard to and without additional duties or liabilities arising from its
role as such administrator or agent or arising from its acting in any such other
capacity.

                7.9   Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as
                      ---------------
Administrative Agent upon thirty days' notice to the Class C Purchasers, the
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Seller and the Servicer with such resignation
becoming effective upon a successor agent succeeding to the rights, powers and
duties of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 7.9. If the
Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement,
then the Required Class C Owners shall appoint from among the Class C Purchasers
a successor administrative agent. Any successor administrative agent shall
succeed to the rights, powers and duties of resigning Administrative Agent, and
the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor administrative agent
or agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Administrative Agent's
rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without
any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent
or any of the parties to this Agreement. After the retiring Administrative
Agent's resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 7
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

                (a)   Each initial Class C Purchaser shall execute and deliver
to the Issuer on the Closing Date an Investment Letter substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B (an "Investment Letter"). Each Class C Owner agrees
                   ---------      -----------------
that the beneficial interest in the Class C Notes purchased by it will be
acquired for investment only and not with a view to any public distribution
thereof, and that such Class C Owner will not offer to sell or otherwise dispose
of any Class C Note acquired by it (or any interest therein) in violation of any
of the requirements of the Securities Act or any applicable state or other
securities laws. Each Class C Owner acknowledges that it has no right to require
the Issuer to register, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any
other securities law, the Class C Notes (or the beneficial interest therein)
acquired by it pursuant to this Agreement or any Transfer Supplement. Each Class
C Owner hereby confirms and agrees that in connection with any transfer or
syndication by it of an interest in the Class C Notes, such Class C Owner has
not engaged and will not engage in a general solicitation or general advertising
including advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in
any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over radio or television,
or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any general
solicitation or general advertising.

                (b)   Each initial purchaser of a Class C Note or any interest
therein and any Assignee thereof or Participant therein shall certify to the
Issuer, the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative
Agent that it is either (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a

under Section 1446 of the Code) and who will furnish to the Issuer, the Seller,
the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Administrative Agent and to the Class C
Owner making the Transfer the forms described in subsection 2.4(c).

                (c)   Any sale, transfer, assignment, participation, pledge,
hypothecation or other disposition (a "Transfer") of a Class C Note or any
                                       --------
interest therein may be made only in accordance with this Section 8.1. Any
Transfer of an interest in a Class C Note shall be in respect of, at least
$5,000,000 in the aggregate. Any Transfer of an interest in a Class C Note
otherwise permitted by this Section 8.1 will be permitted only if it consists of
a pro rata percentage interest in all payments made with respect to the Class C
Purchaser's beneficial interest in such Class C Note. No Class C Note or any
interest therein may be Transferred by Assignment or Participation to any Person
(each, a "Transferee") unless the Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and prior
          ----------
to the transfer the Transferee shall have executed and delivered to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuer an Investment Letter.

                      Each of the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer and the Issuer

Accounts, the Receivables or such party which has been delivered to any Class C
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the Related Documents (including
information obtained pursuant to rights of inspection granted hereunder) or
which has been delivered to such Class C Purchaser by or on behalf of the
Seller, FCNB, the Servicer or the Issuer in connection with such Class C
Purchaser's credit evaluation of First Consumers Master Trust, the Collateral
Certificate, the Accounts, the Receivables, the Seller, FCNB, the Servicer or
the Issuer prior to becoming a party to, or purchasing an interest in this
Agreement or the Class C Notes; provided that prior to any such disclosure, such
                                --------
Transferee or Support Party or prospective Transferee or Support Party shall
have entered into a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of

law, at any time grant participations in all or part of its interest in the
Class C Notes, including the payments due to it under this Agreement and the
Related Documents (each, a "Participation"), to any Permitted Transferee (each,
                            -------------
a "Participant"); provided, however, that no Participation shall be granted to
   -----------    --------  -------
any Person unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have consented
thereto and the conditions to Transfer specified in this Agreement, including in
subsection 8.1(c) hereof, shall have been satisfied and that such Participation
consists of a pro rata percentage interest in all payments made with respect to

such Class C Purchaser's beneficial interest (if any) in the Class C Notes. In
connection with any such Participation, the Administrative Agent shall maintain
a register of each Participant and the amount of each related Participation.
Each Class C Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) any such
Participation will not alter or affect such Class C Purchaser's direct
obligations hereunder, and (B) neither the Indenture Trustee, the Seller, the
Issuer nor the Servicer shall have any obligation to have any communication or
relationship with any Participant. Each Class C Purchaser and each Participant
shall comply with the provisions of subsection 2.4(c) of this Agreement. No
Participant shall be entitled to Transfer all or any portion of its
Participation, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
Each Participant shall be entitled to receive additional amounts and
indemnification pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 hereof as if such
Participant were a Class C Purchaser and such Sections applied to its
Participation; provided, in the case of Section 2.4, that such Participant has
               --------
complied with the provisions of subsection 2.4(c) hereof as if it were a Class C
Purchaser. Each Class C Purchaser shall give the Administrative Agent notice of

or any part of its interest in the Class C Notes and its rights and obligations
under this Agreement and the Related Documents pursuant to an agreement
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D hereto (a "Transfer
                                             ---------            --------
Supplement"), executed by such Assignee and the Class C Purchaser and delivered
----------
to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and consent; provided, however,
                                                            --------  -------
that (i) no such assignment or sale shall be effective unless and until the
conditions to Transfer specified in this Agreement, including in subsection
8.1(c) hereof, shall have been satisfied, and (ii) in no event shall the consent
of the Administrative Agent be required in the case of an assignment by a CP
Conduit of its interest in the Class C Notes and its rights and obligations
under this Agreement and the Related Documents to any one or more of its Support
Parties. From and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Transfer
Supplement, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent provided in such Transfer Supplement, have the rights

the transferor Class C Purchaser shall, to the extent provided in such Transfer
Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement; provided,

however, that after giving effect to each such Assignment, the obligations
-------
released by any such Class C Purchaser shall have been assumed by an Assignee or
Assignees. Such Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to
the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such
Assignee and the resulting adjustment of Percentage Interests arising from the
Assignment. Upon its receipt and acceptance of a duly executed Transfer
Supplement, the Administrative Agent shall on the effective date determined
pursuant thereto give notice of such acceptance to the Seller, the Issuer, the
Servicer and the Indenture Trustee.

                Upon instruction to register a transfer of a Class C Purchaser's
beneficial interest in the Class C Notes (or portion thereof) and surrender for
registration of transfer of such Class C Purchaser's Class C Note(s) (if
applicable) and delivery to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of an
Investment Letter, executed by the registered owner (and the beneficial owner if
it is a Person other than the registered owner), and receipt by the Indenture
Trustee of a copy of the duly executed related Transfer Supplement and such
other documents as may be required under this Agreement, such beneficial
interest in the Class C Notes (or portion thereof) shall be transferred in the
records of the Indenture Trustee and the Administrative Agent and, if requested
by the Assignee, new Class C Notes shall be issued to the Assignee and, if
applicable, the transferor Class C Purchaser in amounts reflecting such Transfer
as provided in the Indenture. To the extent of any conflict between the
provisions of this Section 8.1 and any provisions of Section 2.05 of the Master
Indenture applicable to Transfers of Class C Notes (or interests therein), the
provisions of this Section 8.1 shall control. Successive registrations of
Transfers as aforesaid may be made from time to time as desired, and each such
registration of a transfer to a new registered owner shall be noted on the Note
Register.

                (f)  Each Class C Purchaser may pledge its interest in the Class
C Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral in accordance with applicable
law.

                (g)  Any Class C Purchaser shall have the option to change its
Investing Office, provided that such Class C Purchaser shall have prior to such
                  --------
change in office complied with the provisions of subsection 2.4(c) hereof and
provided further that such Class C Purchaser shall not be entitled to any
-------- -------
amounts otherwise payable under Section 2.3 or 2.4 hereof resulting solely from
such change in office unless such change in office was mandated by applicable
law or by such Class C Purchaser's compliance with the provisions of this
Agreement.

                (h)  Each Affected Party shall be entitled to receive additional
payments and indemnification pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 hereof as
though it were a Class C Purchaser and such Section applied to its interest in
or commitment to acquire an interest in the Class C Notes; provided that such
                                                           --------
Affected Party shall not be entitled to additional payments pursuant to (i)
Section 2.3 by reason of Regulatory Changes which occurred prior to the date it
became an Affected Party or (ii) Section 2.4 attributable to its failure to
satisfy the requirements of subsection 2.4(c) as if it were a Class C Purchaser,
and provided further, that unless such Affected Party has been consented to by
    -------- -------
the Seller, such Affected Party shall be entitled to receive additional amounts
pursuant to Sections 2.3 or 2.4 only to the extent that its related CP Conduit
would have been entitled to receive such amounts in the absence of the
commitment and Support Advances from such Affected Party.

the Seller, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the
Administrative Agent a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each
request by such Affected Party for any such amounts referred to in Sections 2.3
or 2.4, such certificate to be conclusive with respect to the factual
information set forth therein absent manifest error.

                8.2   Tax Characterization. It is the intention of the parties
                      --------------------
hereto that the Class C Notes be treated for tax purposes as indebtedness, and
the parties hereto agree to so treat the Class C Notes (to the extent permitted

         Re       First Consumers Credit Card Master Note Trust
                  Class C Series 2001-A Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes
                  ------------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

                  This letter (the "Investment Letter") is delivered by the
undersigned (the "Purchaser") pursuant to subsection 8.1(a) of the Amended and
Restated Class C Note Purchase Agreement dated as of December 31, 2001 (as in
effect, the "Note Purchase Agreement"), among First Consumers Credit Card Master
Note Trust, First Consumers Credit Corporation, First Consumers National Bank,
the Class C Purchasers parties thereto and Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as
Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall
have the meanings set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser
represents to and agrees with the Issuer as follows:

                  (a) The Purchaser is authorized [to enter into the Note
         Purchase Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder and to
         consummate the transactions contemplated thereby] [to purchase a
         participation in obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement].

                  (b) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in
         financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the
         merits and risks of its investment in the Class C Notes and is able to
         bear the economic risk of such investment. The Purchaser has been
         afforded the opportunity to ask such questions as it deems necessary to
         make an investment decision, and has received all information it has
         requested in connection with making such investment decision. The
         Purchaser has, independently and without reliance upon the
         Administrative Agent or any other Class C Purchaser, and based on such
         documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
         appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,
         financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Accounts, the
         Receivables, First Consumers Master Trust, the Collateral Certificate,
         the Issuer, the Seller, the Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee and
         made its own decision to purchase its interest in the Class C Notes,
         and will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
         Agent or any other Class C

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

         Purchaser, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
         appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis, appraisals
         and decisions in taking or not taking action under the Note Purchase
         Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to
         inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and
         other condition and creditworthiness of the Accounts, the Receivables,
         First Consumers Master Trust, the Collateral Certificate, the Issuer,
         the Seller, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee.

                  (c) The Purchaser is an "accredited investor", as defined in
         Rule 501, promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
         "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
         "Securities Act"), or is a sophisticated institutional investor. The
         Purchaser understands that the offering and sale of the Class C Notes
         has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and
         has not and will not be registered or qualified under any applicable
         "Blue Sky" law, and that the offering and sale of the Class C Notes has
         not been reviewed by, passed on or submitted to any federal or state
         agency or commission, securities exchange or other regulatory body.

                  (d) The Purchaser is acquiring an interest in Class C Notes
         without a view to any distribution, resale or other transfer thereof
         except, with respect to any Class C Purchaser Interest or any interest
         or participation therein, as contemplated in the following sentence.
         The Purchaser will not resell or otherwise transfer any interest or
         participation in the Class C Purchaser Interest, except in accordance
         with Section 8.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement and (i) in a
         transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
         Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities or "blue sky"
         laws; (ii) to the Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer; or (iii) to a
         person who the Purchaser reasonably believes is a qualified
         institutional buyer (within the meaning thereof in Rule 144A under the
         Securities Act) that is aware that the resale or other transfer is
         being made in reliance upon Rule 144A. In connection therewith, the
         Purchaser hereby agrees that it will not resell or otherwise transfer
         the Class C Notes or any interest therein unless the purchaser thereof
         provides to the addressee hereof a letter substantially in the form
         hereof.

                  (e) The Purchaser agrees (for the benefit of the
         Administrative Agent, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller,
         the servicer and the Class C Noteholders) to provide those forms
         required to be provided by subsections 2.4(c) of the Note Purchase
         Agreement at the time and in the manner described therein, and to
         comply with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to the
         related withholding tax exemptions. The Purchaser further certifies,
         represents and warrants that unless the Seller has otherwise consented,
         as of the date hereof, the Purchaser is entitled to receive payments
         under the Note Purchase Agreement and with respect to the Class C Notes
         without deduction of withholding of any United States federal income
         taxes and it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup
         withholding tax.

                  (f) This Investment Letter has been duly executed and
         delivered and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
         the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its
         terms, except as such enforceability may be limited

                                      -2-

         by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
         or equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
         generally and general principles of equity.

                                                    Very truly yours,

                        FORM OF CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

                                     [date]


[Name and address]
Attention:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         First Consumers National Bank (the "Company") will be providing
information to you in connection with a transaction (the "Transaction") to which
the Company will be a party; and in connection therewith you have requested that
the Company furnish or otherwise make available to you certain information
concerning the Company. As a condition to our furnishing such information to
you, we are requiring that you agree, as set forth below, to treat
confidentially such information and any other information that the Company, its
agents or its representatives (including attorneys and financial advisors)
furnishes to you or your partners, officers, directors, employees, attorneys,
accountants, agents, advisors, affiliates or representatives of your agents or
advisors (all of the foregoing collectively referred to as "your
Representatives"), whether furnished before or after the date of this Agreement,
and all notes, analyses, compilations, studies or other documents, whether
prepared by you or others, which contain, is derived from, or otherwise reflect
such information (all of such information collectively referred to as the
"Confidential Information").

         The term "Confidential Information" does not include information which
(i) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a
disclosure by you or your Representatives, or (ii) was available to you on a
non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to you by the Company, its
representatives or its agents, or (iii) becomes available to you on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company, its representatives
or its agents, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality
agreement with the Company or otherwise prohibited from transmitting the
information to you or your Representatives by a contractual, legal or fiduciary
obligation, or (iv) has been independently developed by you without use of any
information furnished by the Company.

         It is understood that you may disclose any of the Confidential
Information to those of your Representatives who require such material for the
purpose of evaluating, or providing advice to you with respect to the
Transaction and the defense, protection and enforcement of your rights and
remedies in the agreements related to the Transaction and otherwise as provided
by law (provided that such Representatives shall be informed by you of the
confidential nature of the Confidential Information). You agree that the
Confidential Information will be kept confidential by you and your
Representatives and, except with the specific prior written consent

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

of the Company or as expressly otherwise permitted by the terms hereof, will not
be disclosed by you or your Representatives, except to any person which has
executed a confidentiality agreement in form and substance similar to this
Agreement (and to the Representatives of such person). You further agree that
you and your Representatives will not use any of the Confidential Information
for any reason or purpose other than to evaluate the Transaction and to defend,
protect and enforce your rights and remedies thereunder.

         The obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure contained herein
shall not apply to the extent disclosure of the Confidential Information is
required by law or is requested by any regulatory authority or, solely with
respect to any Transaction documents, any rating agency; provided, however, in
any case in which the disclosure is so required or requested, you shall disclose
only that portion of the Confidential Information required or requested to be
disclosed. The term "person" as used in this Agreement shall be broadly
interpreted to include without limitation any corporation, company, partnership
and individual.

         The obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure contained herein
shall not apply in the event that you or any of your Representations are
requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for
information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar
process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information, provided it is agreed
that you or such Representative, as the case may be, will provide the Company
with notice of such request for disclosure as may be legally permissible and
reasonably practicable under the circumstances so that the Company may seek an
appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive your or
such Representative's compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the
event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or that the
Company grants a waiver hereunder, you or such Representative may furnish that
portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information which you are
legally compelled to disclose or which has been waived; provided, however, you
may disclose any Confidential Information under circumstances where you
reasonably believe that the failure to disclose such information could have a
material adverse effect on your business or condition (financial or otherwise).

         Although you understand that the Company has endeavored to include in
the Confidential Information known to it which it believes to be relevant for
the purpose of the Transaction, you further understand that neither the Company
nor its agents or its representatives makes any representation or warranty as to
the accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information except such as is
made to you or your affiliates in definitive written documentation related to
the Transaction, subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be
specified therein. You agree that neither the Company nor its agents or its
representatives shall have any liability to you or any of your Representatives
resulting from the use of the Confidential Information by you or such
Representatives other than in connection with such documentation. The agreements
set forth in this Agreement may be modified or waived only by a separate writing
signed by the Company and you expressly so modifying or waiving such agreements.

         You hereby agree to be responsible for any damage, loss, cost or
liability directly arising out of a breach by you or your Representatives of
this Agreement. You also acknowledge that money damages would be both
incalculable and an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by you
or your Representatives and that any such breach would cause the Company
irreparable harm. Accordingly, you also agree that in the event of any breach or
threatened

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

breach of this Agreement, the Company, in addition to any other remedies at law
or in equity it may have, shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting
a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and
specific performance.

         It is understood and agreed that no failure or delay by the Company in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder.

         The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this
Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

         This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties set forth
herein shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

         [Applicable to CP Conduit: The Company hereby agrees that it shall not
institute or join against any you any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding under any federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and a day after the latest
maturing commercial paper note, medium term note or other debt security issued
by you is paid. The Company further agrees that any of your monetary obligations
arising under this letter are payable only to the extent you have excess funds
available for the payment thereof after repayment of your commercial paper
notes, liquidity loans and other senior debt, and otherwise shall not constitute
a "claim" (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against you. No
recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing hereunder or any other
obligation of, or claim against, you arising out of or based upon this letter,
against any of your stockholders, employees, officers, agents, directors or
incorporators or any affiliate thereof.]

         If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign and return one
copy of this Agreement, which thereupon will constitute our agreement with
respect to the subject matter hereof.

                          Very truly yours,

                          FIRST CONSUMERS NATIONAL BANK

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