      (c)          In addition to the duties set forth in Sections 1.02(a) and (b), the Administrator shall (i) execute on behalf of the Issuer or
          the Owner Trustee and (ii) perform such calculations and shall prepare or shall cause the preparation by other appropriate Persons of all such documents, notices, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions that the Issuer or the
          Owner Trustee are required to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the Issuer Basic Documents or are otherwise authorized to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the Basic Documents, and at the request of the Owner Trustee, shall take all
          appropriate action that the Issuer or the Owner Trustee are required to take pursuant to the Issuer Basic Documents.  In furtherance thereof, the Owner Trustee shall, on behalf of itself and of the Issuer, execute and deliver to the Administrator
          and to each successor Administrator appointed pursuant to the terms hereof, one or more powers of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit A, appointing the Administrator the attorney-in-fact of the Owner Trustee and the Issuer for the
          purpose of executing on behalf of the Owner Trustee and the Issuer all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions.  Subject to Section 1.06, and in accordance with the directions of the Owner Trustee, the
          Administrator shall administer, perform or supervise the performance of such other activities in connection with the Collateral (including the Basic Documents) as are not covered by any of the foregoing provisions and as are expressly requested

      (d)         Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Basic Documents to the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible
          for promptly notifying the Owner Trustee in the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer’s payments (or allocations of income) to a Certificateholder as contemplated in Section 5.01(c) of the Trust Agreement.  Any such notice shall
          specify the amount of any withholding tax required to be withheld by the Owner Trustee pursuant to such provision.

       

      
        5

        
          


      

      (e)          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Basic Documents to the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible
          for performance of the duties of the Owner Trustee set forth in Section 5.04 of the Trust Agreement with respect to, among other things, accounting and reports to Certificateholders.

       

      (f)          To the extent that any tax withholding is required, the Administrator shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture
          Trustee, on or before January 31, 2023, a certificate of an Authorized Officer in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee as to such tax withholding and the procedures to be followed with respect thereto to comply with the
          requirements of the Code.  The Administrator shall update such certificate if any additional tax withholding is subsequently required or any previously required tax withholding shall no longer be required.

       

      (g)          The Administrator shall perform the duties of the Administrator specified in Section 10.02 of the Trust Agreement required to be
          performed in connection with the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee, and any other duties expressly required to be performed by the Administrator under the Trust Agreement, the Asset Representations Review Agreement or any other Basic
          Document.

       

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

       

      (i)          With respect to matters that in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non‐ministerial, the Administrator shall not
          take any action unless within a reasonable time before the taking of such action, the Administrator shall have notified the Owner Trustee of the proposed action and the Owner Trustee shall not have withheld consent, which consent shall not be
          unreasonably withheld or delayed, or provided an alternative direction.  For the purpose of the preceding sentence, “non‐ministerial matters” shall include:

       

      (i)          the amendment of or any supplement to the Indenture;

       

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

       

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

       

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

      (v)         the appointment of successor Owner Trustees pursuant to the Trust Agreement; and

      (j)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to, and shall not, (i) make any payments to the Noteholders
        under the Basic Documents, (ii) take any other action that the Issuer directs the Administrator not to take on its behalf or (iii) take any other action which may be construed as having the effect of varying the investment of the Securityholders.

       

      (k)          The Administrator may enter into subservicing agreements with one or more subservicers for the performance of all or part of the Administrator’s duties hereunder. 
        References herein to actions taken or to be taken by the Administrator include actions taken or to be taken by a subservicer on behalf of the Administrator.  Each subservicing agreement will be upon such terms and conditions as are not inconsistent
        with this Agreement and as the Administrator and the subservicer have agreed.

       

      (l)           If requested by the Depositor for purposes of compliance with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act, the Administrator will provide to the Depositor
        and the Servicer on or before March 1 of each year beginning March 1, 2023, the servicing criteria assessment required to be filed in respect of the Issuer under the Exchange Act under Item 1122 of Regulation AB if periodic reports under Section
        15(d) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision thereto, are required to be filed in respect of the Issuer and shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants, who may also render other services to the Administrator, the
        Servicer, the Seller or the Depositor, to deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer the attestation report that would be required to be filed in respect of the Issuer under the Exchange Act if periodic reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange
        Act, or any successor provision thereto, were required to be filed in respect of the Issuer.  Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.  In the event
        that an overall opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion.

       

      The Administrator and the Depositor acknowledge and agree that the purpose of this Section 1.02(l) is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and the related rules and regulations
        of the Commission.  The Depositor shall not exercise its right to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
        and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.  The Administrator acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance
        provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel or otherwise, and the Administrator agrees to comply with all reasonable requests made by the Depositor in good faith
        for delivery of information and shall deliver to the Depositor all information and certifications reasonably required by the Depositor to comply with its Exchange Act reporting obligations, including with respect to any of its predecessors or
        successors. The obligations of the Administrator to provide such information shall survive the removal or termination of the Administrator as Administrator hereunder.

      Section 1.04.  Compensation.  As compensation for the performance of the Administrator’s obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its expenses related

        represent the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in any way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee.

       

      Section 1.07.  No Joint Venture.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) constitute the Administrator and either the Issuer or the Owner Trustee as members of any
        partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) be construed to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) be deemed to confer on any of them any express, implied or apparent
        authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of the others.

       

      Section 1.08.  Other Activities of Administrator.  Nothing herein shall prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or, in its sole
        discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an administrator for any other Person, even though such Person may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

       

      Section 1.09.  Term of Agreement; Resignation and Removal of Administrator.  This Agreement shall continue in force until the dissolution of the Issuer, upon which event

      (a)          Subject to Section 1.09(c), (i) the Administrator may resign its duties hereunder by providing the Issuer with at least 60 days’

      (i)          the Administrator shall default in the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement and, after

      (ii)         an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Administrator.

       

      The Administrator agrees that if an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to it, it shall give written notice thereof to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee within seven days after the occurrence
        of such event.

       

      (c)          No resignation or removal of the Administrator pursuant to this Section shall be effective until (i) a successor Administrator
          shall have been appointed by the Issuer and (ii) such successor Administrator shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder.  The appointment of any successor
          Administrator shall be effective after providing prior written notice to each Rating Agency with respect to the proposed appointment.

       

      (d)          Subject to Section 1.09(c), the Administrator acknowledges that upon the appointment of a Successor Servicer pursuant to the
          Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Administrator shall immediately resign and such Successor Servicer shall automatically become the Administrator under this Agreement.

       

      Section 1.10.  Action Upon Termination, Resignation or Removal.  Promptly upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement pursuant to the first sentence of Section
        1.09 or the resignation or removal of the Administrator pursuant to Section 1.09(a), (b) or (d), respec-tively, the Administrator shall be entitled to be paid all fees and reimbursable expenses accruing to it to the date of such termination,
        resignation or removal.  The Administrator shall forthwith upon such termination pursuant to the first sentence of Section 1.09 deliver to the Issuer all property and documents of or relating to the Collateral then in the custody of the
        Administrator.  In the event of the resignation or removal of the Administrator pursuant to Section 1.09(a), (b) or (d), respectively, the Administrator shall cooperate with the Issuer and take all reasonable steps requested to assist the Issuer in
        making an orderly transfer of the duties of the Administrator.

      Section 1.12.  Amendments.  This Agreement may be amended from time to time by a written amendment duly executed and delivered by the parties hereto, with the written
        consent of the Owner Trustee but without the consent of the Securityholders, for the purposes of curing any ambiguity or mistake, adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
        modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders; provided, that no such amendment shall materially and adversely affect the interest of any Securityholder.  This Agreement may also be amended by the parties hereto with the written consent
        of the Noteholders evidencing at least 51% of the Note Balance of the Notes or, if the Notes have been paid in full, the Certificateholders evidencing at least 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest for the purpose of adding any
        provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Securityholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may (i) increase or reduce in any manner the
        amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on the Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of the Securityholders or (ii) reduce the percentage of the Note Balance or of the Certificate
        Percentage Interest, the consent of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, respectively, of which is required for this amendment, in each case without the consent of the Holders of all outstanding Securities adversely affected by the amendment.

       

      An amendment to this Agreement shall be deemed not to materially adversely affect the interests of any Securityholder if the Person requesting such amendment obtains and delivers to the Owner
        Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel or an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer to that effect and, with respect to the Notes, by satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to such amendment.  Notwithstanding the
        foregoing, the Administrator may not amend this Agreement without the consent of the Depositor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

       

      Section 1.13.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement may not be assigned by the Administrator unless such assignment is previously consented to in writing by the Issuer
        and the Owner Trustee, and subject to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition in respect thereof.  An assignment with such consent and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the
        Administrator is bound hereunder.  Notwithstand-ing the foregoing, this Agreement may be assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to a corporation or other organization that is a successor (by merger,
        consolidation or purchase of assets) to the Administrator; provided, that such successor organization executes and delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
        the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, in which such corporation or other organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, this
        Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto.

      Section 1.15.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY
          RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ANY OF THEM IN CONNECTION

        original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

       

      Section 1.18.  Severability.  If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then
        such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions and terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other covenants, agreements,
        provisions and terms of this Agreement.

       

      Section 1.19.  Limitation of Liability of Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee.

       

      (a)          Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (i) this Agreement is executed and
        delivered by Wilmington Trust, National Association, not individually or personally but solely as Owner Trustee, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (ii) each of the
        representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as a personal representation, undertaking or agreement by the Owner Trustee but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the
        Issuer, (iii) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on the Owner Trustee, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly
        waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under the parties hereto, (iv) the Owner Trustee has not verified and has made no investigation as to the accuracy or completeness of any representations or warranties made by
        the Issuer hereunder and (v) under no circumstances shall the Owner Trustee be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or
        covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under this Agreement or any other related documents.  For all purposes of this Agreement, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and
        entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles Six, Seven and Eight of the Trust Agreement.

       

      
        11

        
          


      

      (b)         Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement has been executed by U.S. Bank Trust Company, National
          Association solely in its capacity as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, and in no event shall the Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity have any liability for the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other
        obligations of the Issuer hereunder or in any of the certificates, notices or agreements delivered pursuant hereto, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer.

       

      Section 1.20.  Third‐Party Beneficiary.  The Owner Trustee is a third‐party beneficiary to this Agreement and is entitled to the rights and benefits hereunder and may
        enforce the provisions hereof as if it were a party hereto.

       

      Section 1.21.  Successor Servicer and Administrator.  The Administrator shall undertake, as promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of
        the Servicer’s rights and powers pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to enforce the provisions of Section 7.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the appointment of a Successor Servicer.  Such Successor
        Servicer shall, upon compliance with the second to last sentence of Section 7.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, become the successor Administrator hereunder; provided, however, that if the Indenture Trustee shall become such successor
        Administrator, the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to perform any obligations or duties or conduct any activities as successor Administrator that would be prohibited by law and not within the banking and trust powers of the Indenture
        Trustee.  In such event, the Indenture Trustee may appoint a sub-administrator to perform such obligations and duties. Any transfer of servicing pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and related succession as Administrator
        hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related successor Administrator of any liability of the related outgoing Administrator arising out of any breach by such outgoing Administrator of such outgoing Administrator’s duties hereunder
        prior to such transfer.

       

      Section 1.22.  Nonpetition Covenants.

        obligations relating to any of the Basic Documents and agrees that it will not cooperate with or encourage others to file a bankruptcy petition against the Issuer during the same period.

       

      
        12

        Person in instituting against, the Depositor any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation Proceedings, or other Proceedings under any Insolvency Law in connection with any obligations relating to any of the Basic Documents
        and agrees that it will not cooperate with or encourage others to file a bankruptcy petition against the Depositor during the same period.

        authenticate or accept such contract or record) hereto or to any other certificate, agreement or document related to this Agreement, and any contract formation or record-keeping through electronic means shall have the same legal validity and

      SECTION 1.02(c) OF ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT

       

      KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that Wilmington Trust, National Association, a national banking association,  not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee of Daimler Trucks Retail
        Trust 2022-1, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”), as grantor (in such capacity, the “Grantor”), does hereby appoint Daimler Truck Financial Services USA LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DTFS USA”), as grantee (the “Grantee”), as
        its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and hereby authorizes and empowers the Grantee, in the name of and on behalf of the Grantor or the Issuer, to take the following actions from time to time with respect to the duties of DTFS USA,
        as administrator (in such capacity, the “Administrator”) under the administration agreement, dated as of October 1, 2022 (the “Administration Agreement”), among the Issuer, the Administrator, Daimler Trucks Retail Receivables LLC (“Daimler Trucks
