         provision.

                  (iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the

         responsibility for the distribution of the Schedule K-1s necessary to
         enable each Owner to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

                  (iv) The Administrator shall satisfy its obligations with
         respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) above by retaining, at the expense of
         the Issuer payable by the Administrator, a firm of independent public
         accountants (the "ACCOUNTANTS") acceptable to the Owner Trustee, which
         shall perform the obligations of the Administrator thereunder.

                  (v) 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

         performed by the Administrator under the Trust Agreement.

                  (vi) 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.

                  (c) NON-MINISTERIAL MATTERS.

                  (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

                                       -6-

         SECTION 11. AMENDMENTS. (a) 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

the consent of the Noteholders of more than 50% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Class B Notes, or, if there are no Notes outstanding, the
consent of Certificateholders of more than 50% of the Certificate Balance,
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 Noteholders or the Certificateholders; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no such amendment shall (x) increase or reduce in any manner
the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments

consent of the Noteholders and Certificateholders then outstanding; and
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that no such amendment or consent shall be effective

Certificates to be qualified, reduced or withdrawn.

this Agreement without the permission of the Depositor, which permission
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Administrator is bound hereunder. Notwithstanding 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

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.
