      SECTION 2.05. Initial Capital Contribution of Owner Trust Estate. The

Statutory Trust Statute and that this Agreement constitute the governing
instrument of such statutory trust. It is the intention of the parties hereto
that, solely for income and franchise tax purposes, (i) so long as there is a

assets of the Trust being the Receivables and other assets held by the Trust,
the owner of the Receivables being the sole Owner and the Notes being
non-recourse debt of the sole Owner and (ii) if there is more than one Owner,
the Trust shall be treated as a partnership for income and franchise tax
purposes, with the assets of the partnership being the Receivables and other
assets held by the Trust, the partners of the partnership being the Owners
(including the Company as assignee of the Depositor pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, in its capacity as recipient of distributions from the Reserve
Account) and the Notes being debt of the partnership. The parties agree that,
unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Trust will file
or cause to be filed annual or



                                      5
<PAGE>

other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the
characterization of the Trust as provided in the preceding sentence for such
tax purposes. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall have
all rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Statutory Trust
Statute with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Trust.

      SECTION 2.07. Liability of Owners. The Owners (including the Company)
shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to
stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the general
corporation law of the State of Delaware.

      SECTION 2.08. Title to Trust Property. Legal title to all the Owner
Trust Estate shall be vested at all times in the Trust as a separate legal
entity except where applicable law in any jurisdiction requires title to any
part of the Owner Trust Estate to be vested in a trustee or trustees, in which
case title shall be deemed to be vested in the Owner Trustee, a co-trustee
and/or a separate trustee, as the case may be.

      SECTION 2.09. Situs of Trust. The Trust will be located and administered
in the State of Delaware. All bank accounts maintained by the Owner Trustee on
behalf of the Trust shall be located in the State of Delaware or the State of
New York. The Trust shall not have any employees in any state other than
Delaware; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit
the Owner Trustee from having employees within or outside of the State of

only office of the Trust will be at the Corporate Trust Office in Delaware.

                                 ARTICLE III

                    Certificates and Transfer of Interests

      SECTION 3.01. Initial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the
contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05 and until the issuance
of the Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust.

      SECTION 3.02. The Certificates. The Certificates shall be issued in
minimum denominations of a one percent Percentage Interest in the Trust. The
Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile
signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Certificates bearing
the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when
such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the
Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be
so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or
did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such
Certificates.

         A transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder and
shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a
Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee's acceptance of a Certificate
duly registered in such transferee's name pursuant to Section 3.04.

      SECTION 3.03. Authentication of Certificates. On the Closing Date, the
Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificates in an aggregate Percentage Interest
equal to 100% to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and
delivered to or upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by its
chairman of the board, its president, any vice president, secretary or any
assistant treasurer, without further corporate action by the Depositor, in the
authorized denominations. No Certificate shall entitle its Holder to any
benefit under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall
appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in
the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or Deutsche
Bank Trust Company Americas, as the Owner Trustee's authenticating agent, by
manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence
that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

      SECTION 3.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates;
Limitations on Transfer. The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be
kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, a
Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it
may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of
Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein
provided. Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas shall be the initial
Certificate Registrar.

         The Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the
Securities Act and will not be listed on any exchange. No transfer of a
Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements under
the Securities Act and such state securities laws. In the event that a
transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act
and state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities
Act and such laws, the Holder desiring to effect such transfer and such
Holder's prospective transferee shall each certify to the Owner Trustee in
writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the forms set
forth in Exhibit C (the "Transferor Certificate") and either Exhibit D (the
"Investment Letter") or Exhibit E (the "Rule 144A Letter"). Except in the case
of a transfer as to which the proposed transferee has provided a Rule 144A
Letter, there shall also be delivered to the Owner Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the
Securities Act and state securities laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not
be an expense of the Trust or the Owner Trustee; provided that such Opinion of
Counsel in respect of the applicable state securities laws may be a memorandum
of law rather than an opinion if such counsel is not licensed in the
applicable jurisdiction. The Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a
Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder,
information regarding the Certificates and the Receivables and such other
information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set
forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without
registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration
exemption provided by Rule 144A. Each Holder of a Certificate desiring to
effect such a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust,
the Owner Trustee, and the Depositor against any liability that may result if
the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with federal and
state securities laws. The Owner Trustee shall cause each Certificate to
contain a legend in the form set forth on the form of Certificate attached
hereto as Exhibit A.

         Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the
office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 and subject to the
satisfaction of the preceding paragraph, the Owner Trustee shall execute,
authenticate and deliver (or shall cause Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas
as its authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of like
tenor and in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Percentage Interest
dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating
agent; provided that prior to such execution, authentication and delivery, the
Owner Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
proposed transfer will not cause the Trust to be characterized as an
association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or
alter the tax characterization of the Notes for federal income tax purposes or
Michigan income and single business tax purposes. At the option of a Holder,
Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of like tenor and of
authorized



                                      9
<PAGE>

denominations of a like aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of
the Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant
to Section 3.08.

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

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

         The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner
Trustee shall not make, and the Certificate Registrar shall not register
transfers or exchanges of, Certificates for a period of 15 days preceding the
due date for any payment with respect to the Certificates.

      SECTION 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a)
any mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar,
or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there shall be
delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in
the absence of notice that such Certificate has been acquired by a protected
purchaser, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the
Owner Trustee or Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the Owner Trustee's
authenticating agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new
Certificate of like tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of
any new Certificate under this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any
duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute
conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any
time.

      SECTION 3.06. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a
Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar or any Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name any
Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section
5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the
contrary.

      SECTION 3.07. Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses.
The Owner Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and
the Depositor, within 15 days after receipt by the Owner Trustee of a written
request therefor from the Servicer or the Depositor, a list, in such form as
the Servicer or the Depositor may reasonably require, of the names and
addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If a
Certificateholder applies in writing to the Owner Trustee, and such
application states that the applicant desires to



                                      10
<PAGE>

communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights
under this Agreement or under the Certificates, then the Owner Trustee shall,
within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such
applicant access during normal business hours to the current list of
Certificateholders. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall
be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Company, the
Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the
disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.

      SECTION 3.08. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee shall
maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or
offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon
the Owner Trustee in respect of the Certificates and the Basic Documents may
be served. The Owner Trustee initially designates Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas, 60 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005 as its office for such
purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Company
and to the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate
Register or any such office or agency.

      SECTION 3.09. Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make
distributions to Certificateholders from the Deposit Account pursuant to
Section 5.02 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner
Trustee. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.05 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds
from the Deposit Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred
to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent
if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent
shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any
material respect or that it is in the interest of the Certificateholders to do
so. The Paying Agent initially shall be the Indenture Trustee, and any
co-paying agent chosen by the Indenture Trustee and acceptable to the Owner
Trustee. The Person acting as Indenture Trustee shall not be permitted to
resign as Paying Agent so long as such Person is acting as the Indenture
Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any
additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver
to the Owner Trustee an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or
additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that, as Paying
Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all
sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for
the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall
be paid to such Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall return all
unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such
Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner
Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 8.01 shall apply to
the Owner Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Owner
Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other
paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the
Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires
otherwise.

      SECTION 3.10. Definitive Certificates. The Certificates, upon original
issuance, will be issued in definitive, fully registered form.

                           Actions by Owner Trustee

      SECTION 4.01. Prior Notice to Owners with Respect to Certain Matters.
With respect to the following matters, the Owner Trustee shall not take action
unless at least 30 days before the taking of such action, the Owner Trustee
shall have notified the Certificateholders in writing of the proposed action
and the Owners shall not have notified the Owner Trustee in writing prior to
the 30th day after such notice is given that such Owners have withheld consent
or provided alternative direction:

      (a) the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by the Trust (except claims
or lawsuits brought in connection with the collection of the Receivables) and
the compromise of any action, claim or lawsuit brought by or against the Trust
(except with respect to the aforementioned claims or lawsuits for collection
of the Receivables);

      (b) the election by the Trust to file an amendment to the Certificate of
Trust (unless such amendment is required to be filed under the Statutory Trust
Statute);

      (c) the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in
circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is required;

      (d) the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in
circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is not required and such
amendment materially adversely affects the interests of the Owners;

      (e) the amendment, change or modification of the Administration
Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or to amend or supplement any
provision in a manner or add any provision that would not materially adversely
affect the interests of the Owners; or

      (f) the appointment pursuant to the Indenture of a successor Note
Registrar, Paying Agent or Indenture Trustee or pursuant to this Agreement of
a successor Certificate Registrar, or the consent to the assignment by the
Note Registrar, Paying Agent or Indenture Trustee or Certificate Registrar of
its obligations under the Indenture or this Agreement, as applicable.

      SECTION 4.02. Action by Owners with Respect to Certain Matters. The
Owner Trustee shall not have the power, except upon the direction of the
Owners, to (a) remove the Administrator under the Administration Agreement
pursuant to Section 8 thereof, (b) appoint a successor Administrator pursuant
to Section 8 of the Administration Agreement, (c) remove the Servicer under
the Sale and Servicing Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01 thereof or (d)
except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, sell the Receivables
after the termination of the Indenture. The Owner Trustee shall take the
actions referred to in the preceding sentence only upon written instructions
signed by the Owners.

      SECTION 4.03. Action by Owners with Respect to Bankruptcy. The Owner
Trustee shall not have the power to commence a voluntary proceeding in
bankruptcy relating to the Trust without the unanimous prior approval of all
Owners and the delivery to the Owner Trustee by each



                                      12
<PAGE>

such Owner of a certificate certifying that such Owner reasonably
believes that the Trust is insolvent.

      SECTION 4.04. Restrictions on Owners' Power. The Owners shall not direct
the Owner Trustee to take or to refrain from taking any action if such action
or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Owner
Trustee under this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or would be
contrary to Section 2.03, nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow
any such direction, if given.

      SECTION 4.05. Majority Control. Except as expressly provided herein, any
action that may be taken by the Owners under this Agreement may be taken by
the Holders of the Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the
Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates. Except as expressly
provided herein, any written notice of the Owners delivered pursuant to this
Agreement shall be effective if signed by the Holders of the Certificates
evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by
the Certificates at the time of the delivery of such notice.

                                  ARTICLE V

                  Application of Trust Funds; Certain Duties

      SECTION 5.01. Establishment of Deposit Account. The Deposit Account
shall be established and maintained pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement. The Deposit Account shall be under the sole dominion and
control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of Noteholders and the
Certificateholders, as applicable in accordance with the Sale and Servicing
Agreement.

      SECTION 5.02. Application of Trust Funds. (a) On each Payment Date, the
Servicer is obligated to instruct the Indenture Trustee to make distributions
and allocations in accordance with Section 5.05(a) of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement. Distributions to Certificateholders will be made in accordance with
Section 5.05(a)(ii)(F) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

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




                                      13
<PAGE>

      SECTION 5.03. Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.01(c),
distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Payment Date
shall be made by the Paying Agent to each Certificateholder of record on the
preceding Record Date by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the
account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate
Registrar appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior
to such Payment Date, or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at
the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register.

      SECTION 5.04. Accounting and Reports to Owners, Internal Revenue Service
and Others. The Owner Trustee shall deliver to each Owner such information,
reports or statements as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury
Regulations and as may be required to enable each Owner to prepare its federal
and state income tax returns. Consistent with the Trust's characterization for
tax purposes, as a security arrangement for the issuance of non-recourse debt,
no federal income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless
either (i) the Owner Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel that, based
on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof, or as a result
of a transfer by the Company permitted by Section 3.04, the Code requires such
a filing or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust
is required to file such a return. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the
Owner Trustee shall file Internal Revenue Service Form 8832 and elect for the
Trust to be treated as a domestic eligible entity with a single owner that is
disregarded as a separate entity, which election shall remain in effect so
long as the Company or any other party is the sole Owner. In the event that
the Trust is required to file tax returns, the Owner Trustee shall prepare or
shall cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Trust
and shall remit such returns to the Company (or if the Company no longer owns
any Certificates, the Owner designated for such purpose by the Company to the
Owner Trustee in writing) at least five (5) days before such returns are due
to be filed. The Company (or such designee Owner, as applicable) shall
promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the
Owner Trustee and such returns shall be filed by the Owner Trustee with the
appropriate tax authorities. In no event shall the Owner Trustee or the
Company (or such designee Owner, as applicable) be liable for any liabilities,
costs or expenses of the Trust or the Noteholders arising out of the
application of any tax law, including federal, state, foreign or local income
or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any
interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure
to comply therewith) except for any such liability, cost or expense
attributable to any act or omission by the Owner Trustee or the Company (or
such designee Owner, as applicable), as the case may be, in breach of its
obligations under this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VI

                     Authority and Duties of Owner Trustee

      SECTION 6.01. General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized and
directed to execute and deliver the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to
be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or
contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and
any amendment or other agreement or instrument, in each case, in such



                                      14
<PAGE>

form as the Company shall approve, as evidenced conclusively by the
Owner Trustee's execution thereof. In addition to the foregoing, the Owner
Trustee is authorized, but shall not be obligated, to take all actions
required of the Trust pursuant to the Basic Documents. The Owner Trustee is
further authorized from time to time to take such action as the Administrator
recommends with respect to the Basic Documents.

      SECTION 6.02. General Duties. It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee
to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement and the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a
party and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Owners, subject to
the Basic Documents and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have
discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the Basic
Documents to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Administration
Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Owner Trustee
hereunder or under any Basic Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be held
liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its
obligations under the Administration Agreement.

      SECTION 6.03. Action upon Instruction. (a) Subject to Article IV and in
accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Owners may by written
instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust. Such
direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Owners
pursuant to Article IV.

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

      (c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative
courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or
under any Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in
such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Owners
requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the
extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written
instruction of the Owners received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on
account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have
received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such
shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be
necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take
or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the
Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners,
and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

      (d) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application
of any provision of this Agreement or any Basic Document or any such provision
is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with
any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement permits
any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the
course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a
particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as
shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Owners requesting
instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from




                                      15
<PAGE>

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

      SECTION 6.04. No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in
Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to
manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of,
or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain
from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated
hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided by
the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received
by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03; and no implied duties or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any Basic Document against
the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing
any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to
otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien
granted to it hereunder or to prepare or file any Securities and Exchange
Commission filing for the Trust or to record this Agreement or any Basic
Document. The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost
and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any
liens on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by, or
claims against, the Owner Trustee that are not related to the ownership or the
administration of the Owner Trust Estate.

      SECTION 6.05. No Action Except Under Specified Documents or
Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose
of or otherwise deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate except (i) in
accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the
Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the Basic
Documents and (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered
to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03.

      SECTION 6.06. Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action
(a) that is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section
2.03 or (b) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would result
in the Trust's becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes. The Owners shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that
would violate the provisions of this Section.

                         Compensation of Owner Trustee

      SECTION 8.01. Owner Trustee's Fees and Expenses. The Owner Trustee shall
receive as compensation for its services hereunder such fees as have been
separately agreed upon before the date hereof between the Depositor and the

obligor for, and shall indemnify the Owner Trustee and its successors,

and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes,
claims, actions and suits, and any and all reasonable costs, expenses and
disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and
nature whatsoever (collectively, "Expenses") which may at any time be imposed
on, incurred by, or asserted against the Owner Trustee or any Indemnified
Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Basic
Documents, the Owner Trust Estate, the administration of the Owner Trust
Estate or the action or inaction of the Owner Trustee hereunder, except only
that the Depositor shall not be liable for or required to indemnify an
Indemnified Party from and against Expenses arising or resulting from any of
the matters described in the third sentence of Section 7.01. The indemnities

action or proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this
Section, the Owner Trustee's choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the
approval of the Depositor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

dissolve upon the final distribution by the Owner Trustee of all moneys or
other property or proceeds of the Owner Trust Estate in accordance with the

not (x) operate to dissolve or terminate this Agreement or the Trust or (y)
entitle such Owner's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or
to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of
all or any part of the Trust or Owner Trust Estate or (z) otherwise affect the

      (b) Except as provided in Section 9.01(a), none of the Depositor, the

amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise
applicable to such Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only
upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the

Date pursuant to Section 5.02.

         In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender
their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified
in the above mentioned written notice, the Owner Trustee shall give a second
written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their
Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within one year after the second notice all the Certificates shall
not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take
appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to
contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other
assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement. Subject to applicable
escheat laws, any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such
remedies shall be distributed by the Paying Agent to the Company.

      (d) Upon the winding up of the Trust in accordance with Section 3808 of
the Statutory Trust Statute, the Owner Trustee, at the expense of the
Depositor shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be cancelled by filing a

                                  ARTICLE X

            Successor Owner Trustees and Additional Owner Trustees

      SECTION 10.01. Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee. The Owner
Trustee shall at all times be a corporation satisfying the provisions of
Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Statute; authorized to exercise
corporate trust powers; having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities; and having (or having a parent that has) time deposits that are
rated at least "A-1" by Standard & Poor's and "F1" by Fitch. If such
corporation shall publish reports of condition at least annually




                                      21
<PAGE>

pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or
examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section, the combined
capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so
published. In case at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02.

      SECTION 10.02. Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner
Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby
created by giving written notice thereof to the Administrator. Upon receiving
such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a
successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to
the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

         If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time the Owner
Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or
insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be
appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner
Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, then the Administrator may remove the Owner
Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee under the
authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrator shall
promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing
Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee, and
shall pay all fees owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

         Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a
successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section
shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor
Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 and payment of all fees and expenses
owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of
such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to each of the Rating
Agencies.

      SECTION 10.03. Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee
appointed pursuant to Section 10.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to
the Administrator and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting
such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or
removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective, and such
successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as
Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees
and expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and
statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Administrator
and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments
and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly
vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers,
duties and obligations.



                                      22
<PAGE>

         No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in
this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner
Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01.

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

      SECTION 10.04. Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Any corporation
into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may
be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, without
the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding;
provided, that such corporation shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01
and, provided, further, that the Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such
merger or consolidation to the Rating Agencies.

      SECTION 10.05. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the
purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be
located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the
power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more
Persons approved by the Administrator and Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee,
jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee or separate trustees,
of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in
such capacity, such title to the Trust or any part thereof and, subject to the
other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and
trusts as the Administrator and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment
within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner
Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or
separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 and no
notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be
required pursuant to Section 10.03.

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

      (a) All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon
the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the
Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being
understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act
separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the
extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or
acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner Trust
Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and



                                      23
<PAGE>

performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the
direction of the Owner Trustee;

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

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

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

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

                                  ARTICLE XI

                                 Miscellaneous

      SECTION 11.01. Supplements and Amendments. This Agreement may be amended
by the Depositor, the Company and the Owner Trustee, with prior written notice
to the Rating Agencies, without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any
provisions in this Agreement or for the purpose of adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions in this Agreement
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders; provided, however, that such action shall not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect
the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder.

         This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Company and the Owner Trustee, with prior written notice to the
Rating Agencies, with the consent of the Holders (as defined in the Indenture)
of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes, the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than a
majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates, 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 (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or
accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on Receivables or
distributions that shall be required to be made for the benefit of the
Noteholders or the Certificateholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or of the Percentage Interests
evidenced by the Certificates required to consent to any such amendment,
without the consent of the Holders of all the outstanding Notes and
Certificates.

         Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the
Owner Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such
amendment or consent to each Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee and each
of the Rating Agencies.

         It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders or
Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any
proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent
shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents
(and any other consents of Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement
or in any other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

         Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of
Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the
Secretary of State.

         Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the
Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely
upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is
authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Owner Trustee may, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Owner
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

         In connection with the execution of any amendment to this Agreement
or any amendment of any other agreement to which the Issuer is a party, the
Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment is authorized or
permitted by the Basic Documents and that all conditions precedent in the
Basic Documents for the execution and delivery thereof by the Issuer or the
Owner Trustee, as the case may be, have been satisfied.

      SECTION 11.02. No Legal Title to Owner Trust Estate in Owners. The
Owners shall not have legal title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate. The
Owners shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to their
undivided ownership interest therein only in accordance with Articles V and
IX. No transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of any right, title or
interest of the Owners to and in their ownership interest in the Trust shall
operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any
transferee to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any
part of the Owner Trust Estate.

      SECTION 11.03. Limitations on Rights of Others. The provisions of this
Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Owner Trustee, the Depositor, the
Company, the Owners, the

respect of this Agreement or any covenants, conditions or provisions contained
herein.

      (b) Any notice required or permitted to be given to a Certificateholder
shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such
Holder as shown in the Certificate Register. Any notice so mailed within the
time prescribed in this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given, whether or not the Certificateholder receives such notice.

      SECTION 11.05. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate
or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

      SECTION 11.06. Separate Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by
the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed
and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument.

      SECTION 11.07. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements
contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, each of
the Depositor, the Company and its permitted assignees, the Owner Trustee and
its successors and each Owner and its successors and permitted assigns, all as
herein provided. Any request, notice, direction, consent, waiver or other
instrument or action by an Owner shall bind the successors and assigns of such
Owner.

      SECTION 11.08. Covenants of Company. In the event that any litigation
with claims in excess of $1,000,000 to which the Company is a party which
shall be reasonably likely to result in a material judgment against the
Company that the Company will not be able to satisfy shall be commenced by an
Owner, during the period beginning nine months following the commencement of
such litigation and continuing until such litigation is dismissed or otherwise
terminated (and, if such litigation has resulted in a final judgment against
the Company, such judgment has been satisfied), the Company shall not make any
distribution on or in respect of its membership interests to any of its
members, or repay the principal amount of any indebtedness of the Company


                                      26

held by DCFS, unless (i) after giving effect to such distribution or
repayment, the Company's liquid assets shall not be less than the amount of
actual damages claimed in such litigation or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition

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

      SECTION 11.09. No Petition. The Owner Trustee, by entering into this
Agreement, each Certificateholder, by accepting a Certificate, and the

Company or the Trust of, any bankruptcy proceedings under any United States
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Certificates, the Notes, this Agreement or any of the Basic
Documents.

      SECTION 11.10. No Recourse. Each Certificateholder by accepting a
Certificate acknowledges that such Certificateholder's Certificates represent
beneficial interests in the Trust only and do not represent interests in or
obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Company, the Administrator,
the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no
recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be
expressly set forth or contemplated in this Agreement, the Certificates or the
Basic Documents.

                                  CERTIFICATE

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the Trust, as defined below, the
property of which includes a pool of retail installment sale contracts (as
defined herein) secured by new and used automobiles and light duty trucks.

(This Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of
DaimlerChrysler Financial Services Americas LLC or any of its affiliates,
except to the extent described below.)

      THIS CERTIFIES THAT ______________________________________ is the
registered owner of a __________________________________ PERCENT
nonassessable, fully-paid, undivided percentage interest in DaimlerChrysler
Auto Trust 2006-A (the "Trust"), formed by DaimlerChrysler Financial Services
Americas LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (the "Depositor"), and
DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC, a Michigan limited liability company
(the "Company").


                                    A-1-1

      The Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of June 10,
2004, as amended and restated by the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement
dated as of March 1, 2006 (as so amended and restated and further amended or
supplemented from time to time, the "Trust Agreement"), among the Depositor,
the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as owner trustee (the
"Owner Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is
set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized
terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement or
the Sale and Servicing Agreement dated as of March 1, 2006 (as amended and
supplemented from time to time, the "Sale and Servicing Agreement"), between
the Trust and the Depositor, as seller and as servicer (in such capacity, the
"Servicer"), as applicable.

      This Certificate is one of the duly authorized class of certificates
(herein called the "Certificates"). Also issued under an Indenture dated as of
March 1, 2006 (the "Indenture"), between the Trust and JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A., as indenture trustee, are the five classes of Notes designated as "Class
A-1 4.7914% Asset Backed Notes," "Class A-2 5.06% Asset Backed Notes," "Class
A-3 5.00% Asset Backed Notes", "Class A-4 5.01% Asset Backed Notes" and "Class
B 5.14% Asset Backed Notes" (collectively, the "Notes"). This Certificate is
issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the
Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by
virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound. The
property of the Trust consists of a pool of retail installment sale contracts
for new and used automobiles and light duty trucks (collectively, the
"Receivables"), all monies received after February 20, 2006, security
interests in the vehicles financed thereby, certain bank accounts and the
proceeds thereof, proceeds from claims on certain insurance policies and
certain other rights under the Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing
Agreement and all proceeds of the foregoing.

      It is the intent of the Depositor, the Company, the Servicer and the
Certificateholder that, for purposes of federal income, state and local income
and single business tax and any other income taxes, the Trust will be treated
as a security arrangement for the issuance of debt by the sole
Certificateholder. The Company, by acceptance of the Certificates, agrees to
treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the above treatment for so long
as the Company is the sole Owner.

      Solely in the event the Certificates are held by more than a single
Owner, it is the intent of the Depositor, the Company, the Servicer and the
Certificateholders that, for purposes of federal income, state and local
income and single business tax and any other income taxes, the Trust will be
treated as a partnership and the Certificateholders (including the Company)
will be treated as partners in the partnership. The Company and the other
Certificateholders, by acceptance of a Certificate, agree to treat, and to
take no action inconsistent with the Treatment of, the Certificates for such
tax purposes as partnership interests in the Trust.

      Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate covenants and
agrees that such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against the
Company, or join in any institution against the Company of, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other
proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law
in connection with any obligations relating to the Certificates, the Notes,
the Trust Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

      Distributions on this Certificate will be made as provided in the Trust
Agreement by the Paying Agent by wire transfer or check mailed to the
Certificateholder of record in the Certificate Register without the
presentation or surrender of this Certificate or the making of any notation
hereon. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and
notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be
made after due notice by the Owner Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at
the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Paying Agent in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

      Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Certificate
set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all
purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

      Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed
by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee, by manual signature, this
Certificate shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any benefit under the Trust
Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

      THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND
THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE
DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and not in
its individual capacity, has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

                           [REVERSE OF CERTIFICATE]


      The Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in,
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Company, the Owner Trustee or any affiliates
of any of them and no recourse may be had against such parties or their
assets, except as expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust
Agreement or the Basic Documents. In addition, this Certificate is not
guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality and is limited in
right of payment to certain collections and recoveries with respect to the
Receivables (and certain other amounts), all as more specifically set forth
herein and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. A copy of each of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement may be examined by any
Certificateholder upon written request during normal business hours at the
principal office of the Depositor and at such other places, if any, designated
by the Depositor.

      The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided,
the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Depositor and the Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under
the Trust Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Company and the Owner
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of the Certificates and the Notes
evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by
the outstanding Certificates or a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive
and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of this Certificate and
of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or
in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this
Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in
certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of
the Certificates.

      As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained by
the Owner Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof
or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or
more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee.
The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, New York, New York.

      Except as provided in the Trust Agreement, the Certificates are issuable
only as registered Certificates. As provided in the Trust Agreement and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are
exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the
same aggregate denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in
connection therewith.

      The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Owner
Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the



                                    A-1-5
<PAGE>

owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.

      The obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and
the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the
Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the disposition of
all property held as part of the Owner Trust Estate. The Servicer of the
Receivables may at its option purchase the Owner Trust Estate at a price
specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such purchase of the
Receivables and other property of the Trust will effect early retirement of
the Certificates; provided, however, such right of purchase is exercisable
only as of the last day of any Collection Period as of which the Pool Balance
is less than or equal to 10% of the Original Pool Balance.

      The Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit plan (as
defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I
of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any
entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's
investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire Certificates
(each, a "Benefit Plan"). By accepting and holding this Certificate, the
Holder hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not
a Benefit Plan.
