constitute a statutory trust under the Statutory Trust Statute and that this
Agreement constitute the governing instrument of such statutory

assets of the Issuer being the Receivables and other assets held by the Issuer,
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 Issuer 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 Issuer and with the partners of the partnership being the
Owners and the Notes being debt of the partnership.  The parties agree
that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Issuer will
file or cause to be filed annual or other necessary returns, reports and other
forms consistent with the characterization of the Issuer as provided in the

Property.  Legal title to the Owner Trust Estate shall be
vested at all times in the Issuer 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
Issuer.  The Issuer will be located in the State of

of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, any
indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by
which it is bound; nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any
of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement or
other instrument (other than pursuant to the Basic Documents); nor violate any
law or, to the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, any order, rule or regulation
applicable to the Depositor of any court or of any federal or state regulatory
body, administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having
jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties; which breach, default,
conflict, lien or violation would have a material adverse effect on the
earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Depositor.

     

    (f)           There
are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the Depositor’s knowledge,
threatened, before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other
governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its
properties: (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to
prevent the issuance of the Trust Certificates or the consummation of any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iii) seeking any determination
or ruling that might materially and adversely affect the performance by the

    TRUST
CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

     

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

     

    Section
3.02.    The Trust
Certificates.  The Trust Certificates shall be issued in
minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof; provided,
however, that one Trust Certificate may be issued in such denomination as
required to include any residual amount.  The Trust Certificates shall
be executed by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile
signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee and shall have deemed to
have been validly issued when so executed and authenticated (as set forth in
Section 3.03 below).  Trust Certificates bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures
were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Owner Trustee, shall be
validly issued and binding obligations of the Issuer 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
Trust Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication
and delivery of such Trust Certificates.

     

    A
transferee of a Trust 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 Trust Certificate duly
registered in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.

     

    Section
3.03.    Authentication and Delivery
of Trust Certificates.  On the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee
shall cause to be authenticated and delivered upon the order of the Depositor,
in exchange for the Receivables and the other assets of the Issuer,
simultaneously with the sale, assignment and transfer to the Issuer of the
Receivables, and the constructive delivery to the Issuer of the Receivable Files
and the other assets of the Issuer, Trust Certificates duly authenticated by the
Owner Trustee, in authorized denominations equaling in the aggregate the
Original Certificate Balance and evidencing the entire ownership of the
Issuer.  No Trust Certificate shall entitle its Holder to any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on
such Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form
set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or the Trust’s
Authenticating Agent, by manual signature; and such authentication shall
constitute conclusive evidence that such Trust Certificate shall have been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Trust Certificates shall
be dated the date of their authentication.  Upon issuance,
authentication and delivery pursuant to the terms hereof, the Trust Certificates
will be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.  Whenever, in any
Basic Document, a reference is made to authentication by the Owner Trustee, such
reference shall include authentication by the Owner Trustee and/or
authentication by a party appointed to act as the Authenticating Agent of the
Owner Trustee.  U.S. Bank Trust National Association shall act as
initial Authenticating Agent.

    Section
3.04.    Registration of Transfer and
Exchange of Trust Certificates.

     

    (a)           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, it shall provide for the
registration of Trust Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Trust
Certificates as herein provided.   U.S. Bank Trust National
Association shall act as initial Certificate Registrar.  The Owner
Trustee may appoint an agent to act as Certificate Registrar.  Upon
any resignation of the Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee shall promptly
appoint a successor thereto.

     

    The Trust
Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act or listed on any
securities exchange.  No transfer of a Trust 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 Issuer in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in the
form of a Seller Certificate and Investment Letter or a 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
Issuer an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an
exemption from the Securities Act and an Opinion of Counsel or memorandum of law
that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from state securities
laws, which Opinion(s) of Counsel and memorandum of law shall not be an expense
of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee.  The Depositor shall provide to
any Holder of a Trust Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by
any such Holder, information regarding the Trust 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
Trust Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant
to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A.  Each Holder of a
Trust Certificate desiring to effect such a transfer shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Issuer, 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
on behalf of the Issuer shall cause each Trust Certificate to contain a legend
in the form set forth on the form of Trust Certificate attached hereto as
Exhibit A.

     

    (b)           Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office of
the Certificate Registrar and subject to the satisfaction of the preceding
paragraph, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall
cause its Authenticating Agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in
authorized denominations of a like aggregate original certificate balance 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 Issuer 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.  At the option of a Holder, Trust Certificates may be
exchanged for other Trust Certificates of authorized

    denominations
of a like aggregate original certificate balance upon surrender of the Trust
Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to
Section 3.08.

     

    (c)           At
the option of a Certificateholder, Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other
Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate original
certificate balance upon surrender of the Trust Certificates to be exchanged at
the office of the Certificate Registrar.  Whenever any Trust
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the
Issuer shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause its
Authenticating Agent to authenticate and deliver) the Trust Certificates that
the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.  Every Trust 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.

     

    (d)           No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Trust Certificates, but the Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent) 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 Trust
Certificates.

     

    (e)           The
Trust Certificates may not be acquired or held by or for the account of a
Benefit Plan Investor or a person who is not a United States Person within the
meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code.  No transfer of a Trust
Certificate shall be made unless the prospective transferee has certified to the
Issuer in writing that it is not a Benefit Plan Investor.

     

    (f)           All
Trust Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, if
surrendered to the Issuer or any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Issuer under
this Agreement, shall be delivered to the Owner Trustee and promptly cancelled
by it, or, if surrendered to the Owner Trustee, shall be promptly cancelled by
it, and no Trust Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as
expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Agreement.  The
Owner Trustee shall dispose of cancelled Trust Certificates in accordance with
its normal practice.

     

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

     

    Section
3.05.    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost
or Stolen Trust Certificates.  If (i) any mutilated Trust
Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate
Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Trust Certificate and (ii) there is 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 to a
Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee that such Trust Certificate has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer
shall execute and the Owner Trustee or its Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate in an
authorized denomination and of a like original certificate
balance.  In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate
under this Section, the Owner Trustee may require the 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection therewith.  Any duplicate Trust 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 Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

     

    Section
3.06.     Persons Deemed
Owners.  Prior to due presentation of a Trust Certificate for
registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any
Paying Agent and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose
name any Trust Certificate is registered as the owner of such Trust 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, any Paying Agent or any of their respective agents shall be affected
by any notice to the contrary.

     

    Section
3.07.    Access to List of
Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses.  The Certificate
Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the
Depositor, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar 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 three or more Certificateholders, or one or more
Certificateholders evidencing not less than 51% of the Percentage Interests of
the Trust Certificates (hereinafter referred to as the “Applicants”), apply in
writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the
Applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to
their rights under this Agreement or under the Trust Certificates, then the
Certificate Registrar shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such
application, afford such Applicants access during normal business hours to the
current list of Certificateholders.  Each Holder, by receiving and
holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of
the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by
reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived.

     

    Section
3.08.    Maintenance of Office or
Agency.  The Trust shall maintain an office or offices or
agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner
Trustee or its agent in respect of the Trust Certificates and the Basic
Documents may be served.  The Owner Trustee initially designates 209
South LaSalle Street, Suite 300, Chicago, Illinois 60604, as its office for such
purposes.  The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the
Depositor 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 Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to
Sections 5.02 and 5.03 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the
Owner Trustee.  Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to
withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution 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.  U.S. Bank
Trust National Association shall act as the initial Paying
Agent.  Each Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent
upon 30 days’ written notice to

    the Owner
Trustee.  In the event that U.S. Bank Trust National Association shall
no longer be the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor to
act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company).  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, 8.01 and 8.02 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 Trust
Certificates.  The Trust Certificates, upon original issuance,
will be issued in definitive, fully registered form.

     

    Section
3.11.    Repayment of Trust
Certificates.  In the event of an optional purchase pursuant to
Section 8.01 (a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Certificates
will be prepaid in whole, but not in part, at an aggregate prepayment price
equal to the aggregate Certificate Balance of all the Trust Certificates plus
accrued interest thereon at the Certificate Rate.

Respect to Certain Matters.  Subject to the provisions and
limitations of Section 4.04, the Owner Trustee shall not have the power, except
upon the direction of the Owners, to (i) remove the Administrator pursuant to

the preceding sentence only upon written instructions signed by the
Owners.

     

    Section

that such Owner reasonably believes that the Issuer is insolvent.

     

    Section
4.04.    Restrictions on Owners’
Power.  The Owners shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take

    APPLICATION
OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

     

    Section
5.01.    Establishment of Trust
Account.  The Owner Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain (or shall cause to be
established and maintained) in the name of the Issuer an Eligible Account (the
“Certificate
Distribution Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the
funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.

     

    The
Issuer shall possess all right, title and interest in funds on deposit from time
to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in the proceeds
thereof.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the
Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of
the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  If, at
any time, the Owner Trustee ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Owner
Trustee (or the Depositor on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate
Distribution Account is not then held by the Owner Trustee or an Affiliate
thereof) shall cause the Certificate Distribution Account to be moved to an
Eligible Institution and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such
new Certificate Distribution Account.  Monies on deposit in the
Certificate Distribution Account may be invested in Eligible Investments upon
the terms set forth in Section 4.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, as if
the Certificate Distribution Account were an “Account”.  Earnings on
investments of funds in the Certificate Distribution Account shall be paid to
the Servicer as part of the Supplemental Servicing Fee and any losses and
investment expenses shall be charged against the funds in such
account.

     

    Section
5.02.    Application of Trust
Funds.

     

    (a)          On
each Payment Date, the Paying Agent will distribute to Certificateholders, on
the basis of the Percentage Interest evidenced by their Trust Certificates,
amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section
4.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Payment
Date.

     

    (b)         On
each Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall send to each Certificateholder the
statement or statements provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant
to Section 4.10 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such
Payment Date.

     

    (c)          In
the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer’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 will retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners
sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Issuer
(but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee or the Paying Agent
from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment
of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings) upon
the written direction of the Depositor.  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 Issuer and remitted to the
appropriate taxing authority.  If there is a possibility that
withholding tax is payable with

    respect
to a distribution, the Paying Agent may in its sole discretion withhold such
amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c).

     

    Section
5.03.    Method of
Payment.  Subject to Section 9.01(c) respecting the final
payment upon retirement of each Trust Certificate, distributions required to be
made to Certificateholders on any Payment Date shall be made to each
Certificateholder of record on the related 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.    No Segregation of Monies; No
Interest.  Subject to Sections 5.01 and 5.02, monies received
by the Owner Trustee or the Paying Agent hereunder need not be segregated in any
manner except to the extent required by law or the Sale and Servicing Agreement
and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law,
and neither the Owner Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be liable for any
interest thereon.

     

    Section
5.05.    Accounting and Reports to
Owners, Internal Revenue Service and Others.  The Owner Trustee
shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Issuer on a fiscal
year basis ending March 31 of each year and the accrual method of
accounting.  In addition, the Issuer shall deliver to each Owner such
information, reports or statements prepared by the Administrator 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 Issuer’s characterization for tax
purposes, as disregarded as an entity separate from the Owner, no federal income
tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Issuer 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, the Code requires such a filing
or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Issuer is required
to file such a return.  Neither the Owner Trustee nor any
Certificateholder will, under any circumstances, and at any time, make an
election on IRS Form 8832 or otherwise, to classify the Trust as an association
taxable as a corporation for federal, state or any other applicable tax
purpose.  In the event that the Issuer is required to file tax
returns, the Owner Trustee shall, to the extent not undertaken by the
Administrator pursuant to the Administration Agreement, prepare or shall cause
to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Issuer and shall
remit such returns to the Depositor (or if the Depositor no longer owns any
Certificates, the Owner designated for such purpose by the Depositor to the
Owner Trustee in writing) at least five days before such returns are due to be
filed.  The Depositor (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 Depositor (or such designee Owner, as applicable) be liable for any
liabilities, costs or expenses of the Issuer 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 Depositor (or such designee
Owner, as applicable), as the case may be, in breach of its obligations under
this Agreement.

    Section
6.01.    General
Authority.  Subject to the provisions and limitations of
Sections 2.03 and 2.06, the Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute
and deliver the Basic Documents to which the Issuer 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 Issuer is to be a party and any amendment or other
agreement, 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
Issuer 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.  Subject to the provisions and limitations of Sections
2.03 and 2.06, 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 other Basic Documents to which the Issuer is a party and to
administer the Issuer 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 other 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 Four, in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Owners
may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the
Issuer.  Such direction may be exercised at any time by written
instruction of the Owners pursuant to Article Four.

     

    (b)          The
Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any
other 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 other 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 other 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 ten 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 and the other 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 other 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
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 ten 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 other 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 other 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 Commission filing for the Issuer or to
record this Agreement or any other 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 (other than the lien of the
Indenture) 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 in accordance with (i) the powers granted to and
the authority

    conferred
upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the Basic Documents and
(iii) 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 (i) that is inconsistent with the
purposes of the Issuer set forth in Section 2.03 or (ii) that, to the actual
knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would result in the Issuer’s becoming taxable as
a corporation for federal or state income tax purposes.  The Owners
shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the
provisions of this Agreement.

hereunder or under any other Basic Document under any circumstances, except (i)
for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or (ii) in the
case of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section
7.03 expressly made by the Owner Trustee.  In particular, but not by
way of limitation (and subject to the exceptions set forth in the preceding

that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or
liability is not reasonably assured or provided to it;

     

    (d)          under
no circumstances shall the Owner Trustee be liable for indebtedness evidenced by
or arising under any Basic Document, including the principal of and interest on

the execution nor the delivery by it of this Agreement, nor the consummation by

    (e)          the
execution, delivery and performance by the Owner Trustee of this Agreement and
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict with, result in any breach of
any of the terms and provisions of, nor constitute (with or without notice or

    (f)          there
are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the Owner Trustee’s actual
knowledge, threatened, before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency
or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Owner Trustee
or its properties: (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or (ii)

any security interest created by any Receivable in any Financed Vehicle or the
maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the
sufficiency of the Owner Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to
be distributed to Certificateholders under this Agreement or the Noteholders
under the Indenture, including, without limitation, the existence, condition and
ownership of any Financed Vehicle; the existence and enforceability of any
insurance thereon; the existence and contents of any Receivable on any computer

Party and its respective officers, directors, employees and agents against any

the performance of its duties hereunder not resulting from its own willful
misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith.  The Indemnified Party
shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it
may seek indemnity.  The indemnities contained in this Section shall
survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee or the termination
of this Agreement.  In the event of any claim, 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 (or if
the Depositor is no longer an owner, the designee of the Depositor), which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Neither the Issuer nor
the Administrator need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss,
liability or expense incurred by any Indemnified Party (1) through such party’s
own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith or (2)  in the
case of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Sections
7.03 expressly made by the Owner Trustee.

OF TRUST AGREEMENT

     

    Section
9.01.    Termination of Trust
Agreement.

     

    (a)           The
Issuer shall dissolve immediately prior to the earlier to occur of (i) the
purchase on any Payment Date by the Servicer, or any successor Servicer, at its
option, pursuant to Section 8.01(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, of the
Owner Trust Estate other than the Accounts and the Certificate Distribution
Account, (ii) the final distribution by the Owner Trustee of all monies or other
property or proceeds of the Owner Trust Estate in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and Article Five, or (iii) the
Payment Date next succeeding the month which is one year after the maturity or
other liquidation of the last Receivable and the disposition of any amount
received upon liquidation of any property remaining in the Owner Trust
Estate.  The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity
of any Owner shall not (i) operate to terminate this Agreement or the Issuer,
(ii) 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 Issuer or Owner Trust Estate or (iii) otherwise affect
the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.  The
Issuer shall be entitled to deduct from the final distribution to
Certificateholders any amounts required to pay any other claims against and
obligations of the Issuer in accordance

    with
Section 3808(e) of the Statutory Trust Statute.

     

    (b)           Except
as provided in Section 9.01(a), neither of the Depositor nor any Owner shall be
entitled to revoke or terminate the Issuer.

     

    (c)           The
outstanding Trust Certificates are subject to redemption in whole, but not in
part, pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided
that the Issuer has available funds sufficient to pay the aggregate Certificate
Balance of all the Trust Certificates, together with accrued interest at the
Certificate Rate to but excluding the Payment Date.  Notice of any
termination of the Issuer, specifying the Payment Date upon which
Certificateholders shall surrender their Trust Certificates to the Paying Agent
for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given by the
Owner Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed within five Business Days
of receipt of notice of such termination from the Servicer given pursuant to
Section 8.01(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, stating (i) the Payment
Date upon or with respect to which final payment of the Trust Certificates shall
be made upon presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates at the office
of the Paying Agent therein designated, (ii) 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 Trust Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein
specified.  The Owner Trustee shall give such notice to the
Certificate Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent (if
other than the Owner Trustee) at the time such notice is given to
Certificateholders.  Upon presentation and surrender of the Trust
Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be distributed to
Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to
Section 5.02.  The Owner Trustee shall promptly notify the
Administrator (who shall make such notice available to each Rating Agency
pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the Administration Agreement) upon the final
payment of the Trust Certificates.

     

    (d)           In
the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Trust
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 Trust Certificates
for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect
thereto.  If within one year after the second notice all the Trust
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 Trust
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 Issuer after exhaustion of
such remedies shall be distributed by the Owner Trustee to the Depositor, in its
capacities as Depositor and as Holder of such Certificate.

     

    (e)           Upon
the winding up of the Issuer and its termination, the Owner Trustee shall, upon
the direction and at the expense of the Depositor, cause the Certificate of
Trust to be cancelled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary
of State in accordance with Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust
Statute.  Upon the filing of the certificate of cancellation, the
Issuer and this Agreement (other than Article 8) shall terminate and be of no
further force or effect.

    Section

combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, (iv) be subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and (v) have the
Required Rating.  If such person shall publish reports of condition at
least annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section, the
combined capital and surplus of such person 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 at the Issuer’s expense
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
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 and expenses 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 Rating Agency pursuant
to Section 1.02(c) of the Administration Agreement.

.  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.

     

    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 and the Noteholders; and, in the case of each Rating Agency,
shall make such notice available pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the
Administration Agreement.  If the Administrator shall fail to mail
such notice within ten 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 Person into which the Owner Trustee may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner
Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all
of the corporate trust business of the Owner Trustee shall be the successor of
the Owner Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any instrument
or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to
the contrary notwithstanding; provided, that such Person shall be eligible
pursuant to Section 10.01 and, provided, further, that the Owner Trustee shall
mail notice of such merger or consolidation to the Administrator (who shall make
such notice available to each Rating Agency pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the
Administration Agreement).

     

    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
to do so, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such
appointment.  The Owner Trustee agrees that upon receipt of a written
request from the Administrator to appoint a co-trustee, it will, at the expense
of the Issuer, either (i) promptly provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrator that such co-trustee is not required or (ii) cooperate fully
to ensure a co-trustee is appointed with any required timeframe.  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,
except that such co-trustee or successor trustee shall have the Required Rating,
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 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

Amendments.

     

    (a)           This
Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto with prior written notice to the
Administrator (who shall make such notice available to each Rating Agency
pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the Administration Agreement), without the
consent of any Securityholders, 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.

     

    (b)           This
Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties hereto, with
prior written notice to the Administrator (who shall make such notice available
to each Rating Agency pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the Administration
Agreement), with the consent of the Holders of Trust Certificates evidencing not
less than a majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Trust
Certificates and, if such amendment materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Noteholders, with the consent of Holders (as such term is
defined in the Indenture) of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes, 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 (i) 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, (ii)
increase or reduce any Interest Rate or Certificate Rate or (iii) reduce the
aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or of the Percentage
Interests evidenced by the Trust Certificates required to consent to any such
amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the outstanding Notes and
Trust Certificates affected thereby.

     

    (c)           Prior
to the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Owner Trustee shall
furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to
the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator (who shall make such notice
available to each Rating Agency pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the
Administration Agreement).

     

    (d)           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.  It shall not be necessary for the consent of
Certificateholders, Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee 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

authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to

Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of
State.

     

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

receive distributions with respect to their undivided ownership interest therein
only in accordance with Articles Five and Nine.  No transfer, by

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.

of the Holders thereof.

     

    Section

Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by the parties

the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates
and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may

any claim that any such courts lack jurisdiction over such party, and agrees not
to plead or claim, in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this
Agreement in any of the aforesaid courts, that any such court lacks jurisdiction
over such party. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the
laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim
that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum.

    


    Section
11.12.   Trust Certificates
Nonassessable and Fully Paid.  Certificateholders shall not be
personally liable for obligations of the Issuer.  The interests

agrees to coordinate with the Administrator with respect to any communication
received from a Rating Agency and further agrees that in no event shall the

    or in any
way relating to the Notes, with any Rating Agency (or any of their respective
officers, directors or employees) without the participation of the
Administrator.

     

    The Owner
Trustee will not be responsible for delays attributable to the Administrator’s
failure to deliver any information related to any communication with a Rating
Agency (with respect to this section, the “Information”), defects in the
Information supplied to the Rating Agency or Administrator or other
circumstances beyond the control of the Owner Trustee.  In addition,
the Owner Trustee shall be under any obligation to make any determination as to
the veracity or applicability of any Information provided to it, or whether any
such Information is required to be maintained on a website or other public

    evidencing
a fractional undivided interest in the Issuer, as defined below, the property of
which includes a pool of retail installment sale or conditional sale contracts
secured by new and used Honda and Acura motor vehicles.

     

    (This
Trust Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of American
Honda Receivables Corp., American Honda Finance Corporation or any of their
respective affiliates.)

     

    THIS
CERTIFIES THAT American Honda Receivables Corp.  is the registered
owner of a 100 percent
nonassessable, fully-paid, undivided interest in the Honda Auto
Receivables 2010-3 Owner Trust (the “Issuer”), formed by American Honda
Receivables Corp., a California corporation (the “Depositor”).

     

    The
Issuer was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of September 17, 2010,
as amended and restated by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement dated October
28, 2010 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”),
between the Depositor and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as owner trustee
(the “Owner Trustee”); a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which
is set forth below.  Capitalized terms used herein that are not
otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Trust
Agreement.
 

    This Trust Certificate is one of the
duly authorized certificates designated as “Asset Backed Certificates” (the
“Trust Certificates”).  Issued under an Indenture dated as of October
1, 2010 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas, as indenture trustee, are four classes of Notes designated as “Class
A-1 0.31004% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-2 0.53% Asset Backed Notes”, “Class
A-3 0.70% Asset Backed Notes” and “Class A-4 0.94% Asset Backed Notes”
(collectively, the “Notes”).  This Trust Certificate is 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-1

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    issued
under and is subject to terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement,
to which Trust Agreement the Holder of this Trust Certificate, by virtue of its
acceptance thereof, assents and by which such Holder is bound.  The
property of the Issuer includes, among other things, a pool of retail
installment sale or conditional sale contracts for new and used Honda and Acura
motor vehicles (collectively, the “Receivables”), all monies received on or in
respect of the Receivables on or after October 1, 2010, 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 Servicer and the Certificateholder that, solely for
purposes of federal income, state and local income tax and any other income
taxes, the Issuer will be treated as a disregarded entity not separate from the
sole Certificateholder.  The purchaser hereof, by acceptance of the
Trust Certificates, agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the
above treatment for so long as it is the sole Owner.

     

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

     

    Each
Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Trust Certificate, covenants and
agrees that such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against the
Depositor, or join in any institution against the Depositor 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 Trust Certificates, the
Notes, the Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document.

     

    Distributions

    [REVERSE
OF TRUST CERTIFICATE]

     

    The Trust
Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or any of their respective affiliates
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
other Basic Documents.  In addition, this Trust 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 rights of the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement at any time by
the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of the Trust Certificates
and the Notes, each voting as a class, evidencing not less than a majority of
the Percentage Interests evidenced by the outstanding Trust Certificates, or a
majority of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes of each such
class.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Trust Certificate shall
be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of this Trust
Certificate and of any Trust 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 Trust Certificate.  The Trust Agreement also permits
the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of
the Holders of any of the Trust Certificates.

     

    As
provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, the transfer of this Trust Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Trust Certificate for registration of transfer
at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained by the Owner
Trustee, 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 Trust Certificates evidencing the same original certificate balance
in the Issuer will be issued to the designated transferee.

     

    Except as
provided in the Trust Agreement, the Trust Certificates are issuable only as
registered Trust Certificates.  As provided in the Trust Agreement and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Trust Certificates are
exchangeable for new Trust Certificates evidencing the same aggregate original
certificate balance, 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 Trust Certificate
is registered as the 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.

     

    
      
         


      

      
        A-4

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    The
obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and the Issuer
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 Issuer
will effect early retirement of the Trust 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 Trust
Certificates may not be acquired or held by a Benefit Plan
Investor.  By accepting and holding this Trust Certificate, the Holder
hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a
Benefit Plan Investor.
