Trust Termination Date, (iii) all of its rights, remedies, powers, privileges
and claims under or with respect to the Receivables Purchase Agreement (whether
arising pursuant to the terms of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or otherwise
available to the Transferor at law or in equity), including, without limitation,
the rights of the Transferor to enforce the Receivables Purchase Agreement and
to give or withhold any and all consents, requests, notices, directions,
approvals, extensions or waivers under or with respect to the Receivables
Purchase Agreement, together with all monies as are from time to time deposited
in the Collection Account, the Excess Funding Account and any other account or
accounts maintained for the benefit of the Noteholders (including, to the extent
specified in the related Indenture Supplement, investment earnings on such
amounts) and Eligible Investments and other investment property from time to
time held in such account, (c) all of its rights, remedies, powers, privileges
and claims under or with respect to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement
(whether arising pursuant to the terms of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement
or otherwise available to the Transferor at law or in equity) and (d) all
proceeds of all of the foregoing and all monies as are from time to time
available under any Enhancement for any Series for payment to Noteholders
(collectively, the "Collateral").

     Such Grant is made in trust to secure the Notes equally and ratably without
prejudice, priority or distinction, except as expressly provided in this
Indenture and the Indenture Supplements, between any Note and any other Notes;
provided, however, that unless and to the extent provided for in an Indenture
Supplement for any Series, the security interest granted above in the Series
Accounts and Enhancement for a particular Series shall be to secure the Notes
for such Series only and, to the extent provided in the Indenture Supplement or
such Series, the providers of any Enhancement for such Series. This Indenture is
a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC.

     The Indenture Trustee as Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders
acknowledges such Grant, accepts the trusts hereunder in accordance with the
provisions hereof and agrees to perform the duties herein required to the end
that the interests of the Noteholders may be adequately and effectively

                                LIMITED RECOURSE

     The obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal, interest and
other amounts in respect of the Notes is limited by recourse only to the
Collateral.

     Section 2.1. Form Generally. Any Series or Class of Notes, together with
the Indenture Trustee's certificate of authentication related thereto, may be

Indenture or such Indenture Supplement, and may have such letters, numbers or
other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon,
as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such
Notes, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes. Any portion of the text of
any Note may be set forth on the reverse thereof, with an appropriate reference
thereto on the face of the Note. The terms of any Notes set forth in an exhibit
to the related Indenture Supplement are part of the terms of this Indenture, as

     The Definitive Notes shall be typewritten, printed, lithographed or
engraved or produced by any combination of these methods, all as determined by
the officers executing such Notes, as evidenced by their execution of such
Notes.

     Each Note will be dated as of the date of its authentication.

     Section 2.2. Denominations. Except as otherwise specified in the related
Indenture Supplement and the Notes, each class of Notes of each Series shall be
issued in fully registered form in minimum amounts of $1,000 and in integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (except that one Note of each Class may be
issued in a different amount, so long as such amount exceeds the applicable
minimum denomination for such Class), and shall be issued upon initial issuance
as one or more Notes in an aggregate original principal amount equal to the
applicable Invested Amount for such Class or Series.

     Section 2.3. Execution, Authentication and Delivery. Each Note shall be
executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Issuer by an
Authorized Officer.

     Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was,
at the time when such signature was affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the
Issuer shall not be rendered invalid, notwithstanding the fact that such
individual

                                        4

<PAGE>

ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such
Notes or does not hold such office at the date of issuance of such Notes.

     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer to the Indenture
Trustee for authentication and delivery, and the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate at the written direction of the Issuer and deliver such Notes as
provided in this Indenture or the related Indenture Supplement and not
otherwise.

     No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or the
applicable Indenture Supplement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially
in the form provided for herein or in the related Indenture Supplement executed
by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of a duly
authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and
delivered hereunder.

     Section 2.4. Authenticating Agent.

     (a) The Indenture Trustee, at the expense of the Servicer, may appoint one
or more authenticating agents with respect to the Notes which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Indenture Trustee in authenticating the Notes
in connection with the issuance, delivery, registration of transfer, exchange or
repayment of the Notes. Whenever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication of Notes by the Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include
authentication on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by an authenticating agent and
a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Indenture Trustee by
an authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the
Issuer and the Servicer.

     (b) Any institution succeeding to the corporate agency business of an
authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the
execution or filing of any power or any further act on the part of the Indenture
Trustee or such authenticating agent.

     (c) An authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written notice
of resignation to the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Servicer. The
Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an authenticating
agent by giving notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the
Issuer and the Servicer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon
such a termination, or in case at any time an authenticating agent shall cease
to be acceptable to the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer and the Servicer, the
Indenture Trustee may promptly appoint a successor authenticating agent. Any
successor

                                        5

<PAGE>

authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become
vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with
like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent. No successor
authenticating agent shall be appointed unless acceptable to the Issuer and the
Servicer.

     (d) The Issuer agrees to pay to each authenticating agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 2.4.

     (e) The provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.4 shall be applicable to any
authenticating agent.

     (f) Pursuant to an appointment made under this Section 2.4, the Notes may
have endorsed thereon, in lieu of or in addition to the Indenture Trustee's
certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in
substantially the following form:

"This is one of the Notes described in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Authorized Signatory"

     Section 2.5. Registration of and Limitations on Transfer and New Issuance
of Notes. The Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the "Note Register") in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer
shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of
Notes. The Indenture Trustee initially shall be the transfer agent and registrar
(in such capacity, the "Transfer Agent and Registrar") for the purpose of
registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. Upon any
resignation of any Transfer Agent and Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly
appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the
duties of Transfer Agent and Registrar.

     If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed by the Issuer as
Transfer Agent and Registrar, the Issuer will give the Indenture Trustee prompt
written notice of the appointment of a Transfer Agent and Registrar and of the
location, and any change in the location, of the Transfer Agent and Registrar
and

                                        6

<PAGE>

Note Register. The Indenture Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note
Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof, and the Indenture
Trustee shall have the right to conclusively rely upon a certificate executed on
behalf of the Transfer Agent and Registrar by an officer thereof as to the names
and addresses of the Noteholders and the principal amounts and numbers of such
Notes.

     Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or
agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar, to be maintained as provided in
Section 3.2, the Issuer shall execute, and upon receipt of such surrendered Note
the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder, in the
name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes (of the
same Series and Class) in any authorized denominations of like tenor and
aggregate principal amount.

     At the option of a Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes (of
the same Series and Class) in any authorized denominations and of like tenor and
aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of such Notes to be exchanged at the
office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar. Whenever any Notes are so
surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and upon receipt of such
surrendered Note the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Noteholder, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.

     All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes
shall evidence the same obligations, evidence the same debt, and be entitled to
the same rights and privileges under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered
upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

     Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in a form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the
Noteholder thereof or its attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and by
such other documents as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably require.

     Any Note held by the Transferor at any time after the date of its initial
issuance may be transferred or exchanged only upon the delivery to the Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of a Tax Opinion dated as of the date of such
transfer or exchange, as the case may be, with respect to such transfer or
exchange.

     The registration of transfer of any Note shall be subject to the additional
requirements, if any, set forth in the related Indenture Supplement.

                                        7

<PAGE>

     No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes, but the Issuer and the Transfer Agent and Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange of such Notes.

     All Notes surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be
canceled by the Issuer and delivered to the Indenture Trustee for subsequent
destruction without liability on the part of either. The Indenture Trustee shall
destroy the Global Note upon its exchange in full for Definitive Notes and shall
deliver a certificate of destruction to the Transferor. Such certificate shall
also state that a certificate or certificates of each Foreign Clearing Agency
referred to in the applicable Indenture Supplement was received with respect to
each portion of the Global Note exchanged for Definitive Notes.

     The preceding provisions of this Section 2.5 notwithstanding, the Issuer
shall not be required to make, and Transfer Agent and Registrar need not
register, transfers or exchanges of Notes for a period of fifteen (15) days
preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Note.

     If and so long as any Series of Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange and such exchange shall so require, the Issuer shall appoint a
co-transfer agent and co-registrar in Luxembourg or another European city. Any
reference in this Indenture to the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall include
any co-transfer agent and co-registrar unless the context otherwise requires.
The Indenture Trustee will enter into any appropriate agency agreement with any
co-transfer agent and co-registrar not a party to this Indenture, which will
implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent.

     Section 2.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If (a) any
mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Note, and (b) in case of destruction, loss, or theft there is delivered to the
Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold
the Issuer, the Noteholders and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Issuer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar or the
Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser (as
defined in Section 8-303 of the UCC as in effect in the applicable
jurisdiction), the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of like tenor (including the
same date of issuance) and principal amount, bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding; provided, however, that if any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall have become or within seven (7) days shall
be due and payable, or shall have been selected or called for

                                        8

<PAGE>

redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such Note
without surrender thereof, except that any mutilated Note shall be surrendered.
If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost
or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a protected
purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the UCC as in effect in the applicable
jurisdiction) of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was
issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment)
from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement
Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any
assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to
recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any
loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in
connection therewith.

     Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.6, the
Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Indenture Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar) connected therewith.

     Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in replacement
of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute complete and
indefeasible evidence of an obligation of the Issuer, as if originally issued,
whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at
any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally
and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

     The provisions of this Section 2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

     Section 2.7. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment for
registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Transferor, the Indenture
Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee
shall treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such
Note for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the terms of the
applicable Indenture Supplement and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether
or not such Note is overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Transferor, the
Indenture Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer, the Transferor or the Indenture
Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     Section 2.8. Appointment of Paying Agent.

                                       9

<PAGE>

     (a) The Issuer reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the
appointment of a Paying Agent for the Notes, and to appoint additional or other
Paying Agents, provided that it will at all times maintain the Indenture Trustee
as a Paying Agent.

     If and so long as any Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and
such exchange shall so require, the Indenture Trustee will appoint a co-paying
agent in Luxembourg or another European city. The Indenture Trustee will enter
into any appropriate agency agreement with any co-paying agent not a party to
this Indenture, which will implement the provisions of this Indenture that
relate to such agent.

     Notice of all changes in the identity or specified office of a Paying Agent
will be delivered promptly to the Noteholders by the Indenture Trustee.

     (b) The Indenture Trustee shall cause each Paying Agent (other than itself)
to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such
Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee that such Paying Agent will
hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Noteholders in trust for
the benefit of the Noteholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to
such Noteholders and shall agree, and if the Indenture Trustee is the Paying
Agent it hereby agrees, that it shall comply with all requirements of the Code
regarding the withholding by the Indenture Trustee of payments in respect of
federal income taxes due from the Note Owners.

     Section 2.9. Access to List of Noteholders' Names and Addresses.

     (a) The Issuer will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Indenture
Trustee, the Servicer or the Paying Agent, within five (5) Business Days after
receipt by the Issuer of a written request therefor from the Indenture Trustee,
the Servicer or the Paying Agent, respectively, a list of the names and
addresses of the Noteholders. Unless otherwise provided in the related Indenture
Supplement, the Holders of not less than 10% of the principal balance of the
Outstanding Notes of any Series (the "Applicants") may apply in writing to the
Indenture Trustee, and if such application states that the Applicants desire to
communicate with other Noteholders of any Series with respect to their rights
under this Indenture or under the Notes and is accompanied by a copy of the
communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Indenture
Trustee, after having been adequately indemnified by such Applicants for its
costs and expenses, shall afford or shall cause the Transfer Agent and Registrar
to afford such Applicants access during normal business hours to the most recent
list of Noteholders held by the Indenture Trustee and shall give the Servicer
notice that such request has been made, within five (5) Business Days after the
receipt of such application. Such list shall be as of a date no more than
forty-five (45) days prior to the date of receipt of such Applicants' request.

                                       10

<PAGE>

        (b)  Every Noteholder, by receiving and holding a Note, agrees that none
of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the
Servicer or any of their respective agents and employees shall be held
accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names
and addresses of the Noteholders hereunder, regardless of the sources from which
such information was derived.

     Section 2.10. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, registration
of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any Person other
than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be
promptly canceled by it. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Indenture
Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any lawful manner whatsoever,
and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee.
No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled
as provided in this Section 2.10, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. All canceled Notes held by the Indenture Trustee shall be destroyed
unless the Issuer shall direct by a timely order that they be returned to it.

     Section 2.11. New Issuance.

             (a) Upon any New Issuance, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to
the Indenture Trustee for authentication one or more new Series of Notes. Any
such Series of Notes shall be substantially in the form specified in the related
Indenture Supplement and shall bear, upon its face, the designation for such
Series selected by the Issuer. Except as specified in the Indenture Supplement
for any Series as to differing treatment of the Notes within such Series, all
Notes of any Series shall be equally and ratably entitled as provided herein to
the benefits hereof without preference, priority or distinction on account of
the actual time or times of authentication and delivery (except that any
Enhancement provided for any Series shall not be available for any other
Series), all in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Indenture and
the applicable Indenture Supplement.

             (b) The Issuer may from time to time issue Series of Notes (each, a
"New Issuance"). The Issuer may perform a New Issuance, without the consent of
any Noteholder, by notifying the Indenture Trustee, in writing at least three
Business Days in advance (a "New Issuance Notice") of the date upon which the
New Issuance is to occur (a "New Issuance Date"). Any New Issuance Notice shall
state the designation of any Series to be issued on the New Issuance Date and,
with respect to each such Series: (x) its Initial Invested Amount (or the method
for calculating such Initial Invested Amount), if any, which amount may not be
greater than the current principal amount of the Exchangeable Transferor
Certificate minus the Minimum Transferor Amount at such time, and (y) its Note

                                       11

<PAGE>

Interest Rate (or the method for allocating interest payments or other cash flow
to such Series), if any. On the New Issuance Date, the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver any such Series only upon delivery to it of the
following: (A) an Indenture Supplement in form satisfactory to the Indenture
Trustee executed by the Issuer and specifying the Principal Terms of such
Series, (B) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, unless otherwise specified
in the related Indenture Supplement, the newly issued Series of Notes (other
than any Class of Notes required to be retained by the Transferor) will be
characterized as either indebtedness or an interest in a partnership (that is
not taxable as a corporation) under existing law for Federal income tax purposes
and that the issuance of the newly issued Series of Notes will not have any
material adverse impact on the Federal income tax characterization of any
outstanding Series of Notes that have been the subject of a previous opinion of
tax counsel or result in the Issuer being taxable as an association or as a
publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for Federal or applicable
state tax purposes (such opinion, a "Tax Opinion"), (C) an agreement, if any,
pursuant to which the Enhancement Provider agrees to provide Enhancement and (D)
written confirmation from each Rating Agency that the New Issuance will not
result in the Rating Agency's reducing or withdrawing its rating on any then
outstanding Series rated by it. Upon satisfaction of such conditions, the
Indenture Trustee shall issue, as provided above, such Series of Notes. There is
no limit to the number of New Issuances that may be performed under this
Indenture.

             (c) In conjunction with a New Issuance, the parties hereto shall
execute an Indenture Supplement, which shall specify the relevant terms with
respect to any Series of Notes, which may include, without limitation: (i) its
name or designation, (ii) an Initial Invested Amount or the method of
calculating the Initial Invested Amount, (iii) a Note Interest Rate (or formula
for the determination thereof), (iv) the interest payment date or dates and the
date or dates from which interest shall accrue, (v) the method of allocating
Collections of Principal Receivables for such Series and, if applicable, with
respect to other Series and the method by which the principal amount of Notes of
such Series shall amortize or accrete and the method for allocating Collections
of Finance Charge Receivables and Receivables in Defaulted Accounts, (vi) the
names of any accounts to be used by such Series and the terms governing the
operation of any such account, (vii) the Servicing Fee Percentage, (viii) the
Minimum Transferor Interest Percentage, (ix) the Minimum Aggregate Principal
Receivables, (x) the Stated Series Termination Date, (xi) the terms of any
Enhancement, (xii) the Enhancement Provider, if any, (xiii) the base rate, if
any, (xiv) the Repurchase Terms or the terms on which the Notes of such Series
may be remarketed to other investors, (xv) any deposit into any account provided
for such Series, (xvi) the number of Classes within such Series, and if more
than one Class, the rights and priorities of each such Class, (xvii) the extent
to which the Notes will be issuable in temporary or permanent global form and,
in such case, the depository for such

                                       12

<PAGE>

global certificate or certificates, the terms and conditions, if any, upon which
such global certificate may be exchanged in whole or in part for Definitive
Notes, and the manner in which any interest payable on a temporary or global
certificate will be paid, (xviii) whether the Notes may be issued in bearer form
and any limitations imposed thereon and provisions relating to compliance with
applicable laws and rules for bearer instruments, (xix) the priority of such
Series with respect to any other Series, (xx) whether Interchange or other fees
will be included in the funds available to be paid with respect to such Series,
(xxi) whether such Series will or may be paired with any other Series and the
Series with which it will be paired, if applicable, (xxii) the Group, if any, to
which such Series belongs, and (xxiii) any other relevant terms of such Series
(all such terms, the "Principal Terms" of such Series). The terms of such
Indenture Supplement may modify or amend the terms of this Indenture solely as
applied to such new Series. If on the date of the issuance of such Series there
is issued and outstanding no Series of Notes which is currently rated by a
Rating Agency, then as a condition to such New Issuance a nationally recognized
investment banking firm or commercial bank shall also deliver to the Indenture
Trustee an officer's certificate stating, in substance, that the New Issuance

such other Series of Notes then issued and outstanding.

Indenture Supplement, the Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the
form of typewritten or printed Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes to be
delivered to the depository specified in such Indenture Supplement which shall

Issuer.

     The Notes of each Series shall, unless otherwise provided in the related
Indenture Supplement, initially be registered in the Note Register in the name

Book-Entry Notes and shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee or, pursuant to
such Clearing Agency's or Foreign Clearing Agency's instructions held by the
Indenture Trustee's agent as custodian for the Clearing Agency or Foreign

     Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued under the limited
circumstances described in Section 2.14, no Note Owner shall be entitled to
receive a Definitive Note representing such Note Owner's interest in such Note.

with respect to each such Series;

                                       13

<PAGE>

     (b) the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for all
purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest
on the Notes of each such Series) as the authorized representatives of the Note
Owners;

     (c) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.12 conflict with
any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 2.12
shall control with respect to each such Series;

     (d) the rights of Note Owners of each such Series shall be exercised only
through the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and the applicable
Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established by law

of such Series are issued pursuant to Section 2.14, the initial Clearing Agency
shall make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and
receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the Notes to
such Clearing Agency Participants; and

     (e) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based
upon instructions or directions of the Holders of Notes representing a specified
percentage of the Outstanding Amount, the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing
Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that they
have received instructions to such effect from the Note Owners and/or Clearing
Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required
percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such
instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

     Section 2.13. Notices to Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency.
Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under
this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note
Owners pursuant to Section 2.14, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such
notices and communications specified herein to be given to Noteholders to the
Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency, as applicable, and shall have no
obligation to the Note Owners.

     Section 2.14. Definitive Notes. If (i) (A) the Transferor advises the
Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or
able to discharge properly its responsibilities as Clearing Agency with respect
to the Book-Entry Notes of a given Series and (B) the Indenture Trustee or
Issuer is unable to locate and reach an agreement on satisfactory terms with a
qualified successor, (ii) the Transferor, at its option, advises the Indenture
Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Clearing

                                       14

<PAGE>

Agency with respect to such Series or (iii) after the occurrence of a Servicer
Default, Note Owners of Notes evidencing more than 50% of the principal balance
of the Outstanding Notes (or such other percentage as specified in the related
Indenture Supplement) of such Series advise the Indenture Trustee and the
applicable Clearing Agency through the applicable Clearing Agency Participants
in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system is no longer in the best
interests of the Note Owners of such Series, the Clearing Agency shall notify
all Note Owners of such Series of the occurrence of such event and of the
availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners of such Series requesting the
same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the Notes of such Series,
accompanied by registration instructions from the applicable Clearing Agency,
the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate Definitive
Notes of such Series and shall recognize the registered holders of such
Definitive Notes as Noteholders under this Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the
Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such
instructions, and the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on,
and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance
of Definitive Notes of such Series, all references herein to obligations imposed
upon or to be performed by the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing
Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Indenture
Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Notes, and the
Indenture Trustee shall recognize the registered holders of the Definitive Notes
of such Series as Noteholders of such Series hereunder. Definitive Notes will be
transferable and exchangeable at the offices of the Transfer Agent and
Registrar.

     Section 2.15. Global Note. If specified in the related Indenture Supplement
for any Series, Notes may be initially issued in the form of a single temporary
Global Note (the "Global Note") in bearer form, without interest coupons, in the
denomination of the initial principal amount and substantially in the form
attached to the related Indenture Supplement. Unless otherwise specified in the
related Indenture Supplement, the provisions of this Section 2.15 shall apply to
such Global Note. The Global Note will be authenticated by the Indenture Trustee
upon the same conditions, in substantially the same manner and with the same
effect as the Definitive Notes. The Global Note may be exchanged in the manner
described in the related Indenture Supplement for Registered Notes or Bearer
Notes in definitive form. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the
Indenture Supplement, any Notes that are issued in bearer form pursuant to this
Indenture shall be issued in accordance with the requirements of Code section
163(f)(2).

     Section 2.16. Meetings of Noteholders. To the extent provided by the
Indenture Supplement for any Series issued in whole or in part in Bearer Notes,
the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee may at any time call a meeting of the
Noteholders of such Series, to be held at such time and at such place as the

                                       15

<PAGE>

Servicer and the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall determine, for the
purpose of approving a modification or amendment to, or obtaining a waiver of,
any covenant or condition set forth in this Indenture with respect to such
Series or in the Notes of such Series, subject to Article X.

     Section 2.17. Uncertificated Classes. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Article II or in Article XI, unless otherwise
specified in any Indenture Supplement, any provisions contained in this Article
II and in Article XI relating to the registration, form, execution,
authentication, delivery, presentation, cancellation and surrender of Notes
shall not be applicable to any uncertificated Notes, provided, however, that,
except as otherwise specifically provided in the Indenture Supplement, any such
uncertificated Notes shall be issued in "registered form" within the meaning of
Code section 163(f)(1).

                                  ARTICLE III

                     REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF ISSUER

     Section 3.1. Payment of Principal and Interest.

     (a) The Issuer will duly and punctually pay principal and interest in
accordance with the terms of the Notes as specified in the relevant Indenture
Supplement.

     (b) The Noteholders of a Series as of the Record Date in respect of a
Distribution Date shall be entitled to the interest accrued and payable and
principal payable on such Distribution Date as specified in the related
Indenture Supplement. All payment obligations under a Note are discharged to the
extent such payments are made to the Noteholder of record.

     Section 3.2. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Issuer will maintain an
office or agency within the State of New York and such other locations as may be
set forth in an Indenture Supplement where Notes may be presented or surrendered
for payment, where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the
Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer hereby initially appoints the
Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office to serve as its agent for the
foregoing purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders of the location, and of any change in the location,
of any such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain
any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with
the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be
made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Issuer hereby appoints the
Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

                                       16

<PAGE>

     Section 3.3. Money for Note Payments to Be Held in Trust. As specified in
Section 8.3(a) and (b) herein and in the related Indenture Supplement, all
payments of amounts due and payable with respect to the Notes which are to be
made from amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account, any Series Account or
the Excess Funding Account shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the
Indenture Trustee or by the Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the
Collection Account, any Series Account or the Excess Funding Account shall be
paid over to or at the direction of the Issuer except as provided in this
Section 3.3 and in the related Indenture Supplement.

     The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying
Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee (and if the Indenture Trustee acts
as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section
3.3, that such Paying Agent, in acting as Paying Agent, is an express agent of
the Issuer and, further, that such Paying Agent will:

             (i)  hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with
     respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
     thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed
     of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;

             (ii)  give a Trustee Officer of the Indenture Trustee written
     notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes)
     of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to
     be made with respect to the Notes;

             (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon
     the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the
     Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

             (iv)  immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the
     Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes if
     at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying
     Agent at the time of its appointment; and

             (v)   comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the
     withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable
     withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable
     reporting requirements in connection therewith.

The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any
Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such
Paying

                                       17

<PAGE>

Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as
those upon which such sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment
by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

     Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, and after such
notice required with respect to Notes not surrendered for cancellation pursuant
to Section 11.2(b) is given, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any
Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note
remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable
shall be discharged from such trust, and the Indenture Trustee or such Paying
Agent, as the case may be, shall give prompt notice of such occurrence to the
Issuer and shall release such money to the Issuer on Issuer Order; and the
Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look
only to the Issuer (and then only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the
Issuer) for payment thereof, and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such
Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required
to make any such repayment, shall at the direction of the Issuer cause to be
published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily
published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the City of New
York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such
publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid
to the Issuer. The cost of any such notice or publication shall be paid out of
funds in the Collection Account or any Series Account held for the benefit of
the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the
expense of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such
repayment (including, but not limited to, mailing notice of such repayment to
Holders whose Notes have been called but have not been surrendered for
redemption or whose right to or interest in moneys due and payable but not
claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture Trustee or of the
Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder).

     Section 3.4. Existence. The Issuer will keep in full effect its existence,
rights and franchises as a business trust under the laws of the State of
Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes,
organized under the laws of any other State or of the United States of America,
in which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and
franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and
preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral and each other
related instrument or agreement.

                                       18

<PAGE>

         Section 3.5. Protection of Collateral. The Issuer will from time to
time prepare, or cause to be prepared, execute and deliver all such supplements
and amendments hereto and all such financing statements, continuation
statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and will
take such other action necessary or advisable to:

         (a) grant more effectively all or any portion of the Collateral as
security for the Notes;

         (b) maintain or preserve the lien (and the priority thereof) of this
Indenture or to carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

         (c) perfect, publish notice of, or protect the validity of any Grant
made or to be made under this Indenture;

         (d) enforce any of the Collateral; or

         (e) preserve and defend title to the Collateral securing the Notes and
the rights therein of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders secured thereby
against the claims of all persons and parties.

         The Issuer hereby represents that all of the representations and
warranties set out in Annex B are true and correct.

         The Issuer hereby designates the Indenture Trustee its agent and
attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement, continuation statement or
other instrument required pursuant to this Section 3.5 (and does hereby
authorize the recording and filing of any financing statement, continuation
statement or other instrument required pursuant to this Section 3.5), but the
Indenture Trustee shall not have any obligation to take any such action unless
instructed to do so by Noteholders in accordance with the terms hereof.

         The Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid any taxes levied on all or any
part of the Receivables securing the Notes.

         Section 3.6. Opinions as to Collateral.

         (a) On the Closing Date relating to any new Series of Notes, the Issuer
shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Rating Agencies either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action
has been taken to perfect the lien and security interest of this Indenture,
including with respect to the recording and filing of this Indenture, any
indentures supplemental hereto, and any other requisite documents, and with
respect to the execution and filing of any financing statements and continuation
statements, as are so necessary and reciting the details of such action, or
stating that, in the

                                       19

<PAGE>

opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to maintain the perfection
of such lien and security interest.

         (b) On or before June 30 of each year, beginning with June 30, 2003,
the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, dated
as of a date within 90 days of such day, satisfactory to the Rating Agencies
stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no filing or other action, other
than such filing or other action described in such opinion, is necessary from
the date of such opinion through June 30th of the following year to continue the
perfected status of the lien and security interest of the Issuer in the
collateral described in the financing statements referred to in such opinion.

         Section 3.7. Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables.

         (a) The Issuer will not take any action and will use its best efforts
not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person
from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument
or agreement included in the Collateral or that would result in the amendment,
hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the
validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as
expressly provided in this Indenture, the Transfer and Servicing Agreement or
such other instrument or agreement.

         (b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in
performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties
by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate of
the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. Initially, the
Issuer has contracted with the Administrator to assist the Issuer in performing
its duties under this Indenture.

         (c) The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its
obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the other Transaction
Documents and in the instruments and agreements relating to the Collateral,
including but not limited to filing or causing to be filed all UCC financing
statements and continuation statements required to be filed by the terms of this
Indenture and the Transfer and Servicing Agreement in accordance with and within
the time periods provided for herein and therein.

         (d) If the Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of a Servicer
Default under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall cause the
Indenture Trustee to promptly notify the Rating Agencies thereof, and shall
cause the Indenture Trustee to specify in such notice the action, if any, being
taken with respect to such default. If a Servicer Default shall arise from the
failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the
Transfer and

                                       20

<PAGE>

Servicing Agreement with respect to the Receivables, the Issuer shall take all
reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure.

         (e) On and after the receipt by the Servicer of a Termination Notice
pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer
shall continue to perform all servicing functions under this Indenture until the
date specified in the Termination Notice or until a date mutually agreed upon by
the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee. As promptly as possible after the giving
of a Termination Notice to the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a
Successor Servicer, and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by
a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event
that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and accepted its appointment at
the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee in
accordance with Section 7.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement without
further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer. The
Indenture Trustee may delegate any of its servicing obligations to an Affiliate
or agent in accordance with Section 3.1(b) and Section 5.7 of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee shall,
if it is legally unable so to act, petition at the expense of the Servicer a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established institution
qualifying as an Eligible Servicer as the Successor Servicer hereunder. The
Indenture Trustee shall give prompt notice to each Rating Agency and each Series
Enhancer upon the appointment of a Successor Servicer. Upon its appointment, the
Successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer with
respect to servicing functions under this Indenture and shall be subject to all
the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and all references in this
Indenture to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to the Successor Servicer. In
connection with any Termination Notice, the Indenture Trustee will review any
bids which it obtains from Eligible Servicers and shall be permitted to appoint
any Eligible Servicer submitting such a bid as a Successor Servicer for
servicing compensation, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.2 of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else herein to
the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any
servicing fee.

         Section 3.8. Assignment. Without derogating from the absolute nature of
the assignment granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture or the
rights of the Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Issuer agrees (i) that it will
not, without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and satisfaction
of the Rating Agency Condition, amend, modify, waive, supplement, terminate or
surrender, or agree to any amendment, modification, supplement, termination,
waiver or surrender of, the terms of any Collateral (except to the extent
otherwise provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement) or the Transaction
Documents (except to the extent otherwise provided in the Transaction
Documents), or waive

                                       21

<PAGE>

timely performance or observance by the Servicer or the Transferor under the
Transfer and Servicing Agreement; and (ii) that any such amendment shall not (A)
increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the
timing of, collections of payments on the Receivables (except to the extent
otherwise provided in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement) or distributions
that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (B) reduce
the aforesaid percentage of the Notes that is required to consent to any such
amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the Outstanding Notes. If
any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be so consented to
by the Indenture Trustee and such Noteholders, the Issuer agrees, promptly
following a request by the Indenture Trustee to do so, to execute and deliver,
in its own name and at its own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents
and other documents as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or appropriate
in the circumstances.

         Section 3.9. Negative Covenants. So long as any Notes are Outstanding,
the Issuer will not:

         (a) sell, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of any part of the
Collateral unless directed to do so by the Indenture Trustee, except as
expressly permitted by this Indenture and any Indenture Supplement, the
Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trust Agreement or the Transfer and
Servicing Agreement;

         (b) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from, the principal and
interest payable in respect of the Notes (other than amounts properly withheld
from such payments under the Code or applicable state law) or assert any claim
against any present or former Noteholder by reason of the payment of any taxes
levied or assessed upon any part of the Collateral;

         (c) incur, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable, directly or
indirectly, for any indebtedness other than as contemplated by the Transaction
Documents;

         (d) (i) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be
impaired, or permit the lien of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated,
subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from
any covenants or obligations with respect to the Notes under this Indenture
except as may be expressly permitted hereby, (ii) permit any Lien, charge,
excise, claim, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the
lien of this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or
burden the Collateral or any part thereof or any interest therein or the
proceeds thereof or (iii) permit the lien of this Indenture not to constitute a
valid first priority security interest (other than with respect to a tax,
mechanics, or similar lien) in the Collateral; or

                                       22

<PAGE>

         (e) voluntarily dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part.

         Section 3.10. Statements as to Compliance. The Issuer will deliver to
the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies, on or before June 30 of each
year, beginning with June 30, 2003, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to the
Authorized Officer signing such Officer's Certificate, that

             (i)       a review of the activities of the Issuer during the
         preceding Fiscal Year and of its performance under this Indenture was
         made under the supervision of such Authorized Officer, and

             (ii)      to the best of such Authorized Officer's knowledge, based
         on such review, either there has occurred no event which, with the
         giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an
         Event of Default and the Issuer has fully performed all its obligations
         under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has occurred
         such an event, specifying each such event known to such Authorized
         Officer and the nature and status thereof.

         Section 3.11. Issuer May Consolidate, Etc., Only on Certain Terms.

         (a) The Issuer shall not consolidate or merge with or into any other
Person, unless:

                       (1) the Person (if other than the Issuer) formed by or
             surviving such consolidation or merger (the "Surviving Person") (i)
             is organized and existing under the laws of the United States of
             America or any state or the District of Columbia, (ii) is not
             subject to regulation as an "investment company" under the 1940 Act
             and (iii) expressly assumes, by an indenture supplemental hereto,
             executed and delivered to the Indenture Trustee, in a form
             satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, the obligation to make due
             and punctual payment of the principal of and interest on all Notes
             and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part
             of the Issuer to be performed or observed;

                       (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction,
             no Event of Default or Early Amortization Event shall have occurred
             and be continuing;

                       (3) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture
             Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each
             stating that (i) such consolidation or merger and such supplemental
             indenture comply with this Section 3.11, (ii) all conditions
             precedent provided for in this Section 3.11 relating to such

         acquire Principal Receivables to be applied to acquire Eligible
         Investments rather than Principal Receivables.

                       (c)  The following shall be the conditions to Defeasance
         under Section 4.3(a):

                       (i)  The Issuer irrevocably shall have deposited or
             caused to be deposited with the Indenture Trustee, under the terms
             of an irrevocable trust agreement in form and substance

             making the payments described below, (A) U.S. Dollars in an amount,
             or (B) Eligible Investments which through the scheduled payment of

             combination thereof, in each case sufficient to pay and discharge,
             and which shall be applied by the Indenture Trustee to pay and

             or Eligible Investments for Receivables, the Issuer shall have
             delivered to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the

             company" within the meaning of the 1940 Act;

             and any Enhancement Provider an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer
             stating the Issuer reasonably believes that such deposit and
             termination of obligations will not, based on the facts known to
             such officer at the time of such certification, then cause an Early
             Amortization Event with respect to any Series or any event that,
             with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would result in the
             occurrence of an Early Amortization Event with respect to any
             Series; and

                 (iv)  the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

     Section 5.3. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an
Event of Default described in paragraph (a), (b) or (e) of Section 5.2 should
occur and be continuing with respect to a Series, then and in every such case
the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes representing more than 50% of the
principal balance of the Outstanding Notes of such Series may declare all the

                                       32

<PAGE>

Notes of such Series to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing
to the Issuer (and to a Trustee Officer of the Indenture Trustee if declared by
Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such
Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of
acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

     If an Event of Default described in paragraph (c) or (d) of Section 5.2
should occur and be continuing, then the unpaid principal of the Notes, together
with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall
automatically become due and payable.

     At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article V, the
Holders of Notes representing more than 50% of the principal balance of the
Outstanding Notes of such Series, by written notice to the Issuer, a Trustee
Officer of the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies, may rescind and annul
such declaration and its consequences; provided, that:

     (a)   the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay:

           (i)  all payments of principal of and interest on all Notes and all
     other amounts that would then be due hereunder or upon such Notes if the
     Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and

           (ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and
     the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
     Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and

     (b)   all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of
the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or
waived as provided in Section 5.13.

     No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereto.

     Section 5.4. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Indenture Trustee.

     (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment of any
interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default
continues for a period of thirty-five (35) days following the date on which such
interest became due and payable, or (ii) default is made in the payment of
principal of any Note, if and to the extent not previously paid, when the same

                                       33

<PAGE>

becomes due and payable on the Stated Series Termination Date, the Issuer will,
upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders
of the Notes of the affected Series, the whole amount then due and payable on
such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal,
and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally
enforceable, interest upon overdue installments of interest, as specified in the
related Indenture Supplement, and in addition thereto will pay such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection,
including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

     (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such
demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may
enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes and collect
in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer, wherever
situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

     (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee
may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.5, in its discretion, proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders of the affected
Series, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most
effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or
legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by
law.

     (d) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Notes of the affected Series, or any Person having or claiming
an ownership interest in the Collateral, Proceedings under Title 11 of the
United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or in case a
receiver, conservator, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization,
liquidator, sequestrator, custodian or other similar official shall have been
appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other
obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings
relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes of such Series, or to the
creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture
Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due
and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective
of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 5.4, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention
in such Proceedings or otherwise:

                                       34

<PAGE>

           (i)   to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of
     principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes of such
     Series and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or
     advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including
     any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each
     predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and
     counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred,
     and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor
     Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or willful misconduct)
     and of the Noteholders of such Series allowed in such Proceedings;

           (ii)  unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on
     behalf of the Holders of Notes of such Series in any election of a trustee,
     a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such
     Proceedings;

           (iii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with
     respect to the claims of the Noteholders of such Series and of the
     Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and

           (iv)  to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as
     may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture
     Trustee or the Holders of Notes of such Series allowed in any judicial
     Proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, conservator, liquidator, custodian, assignee,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby
authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture
Trustee, and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the
making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee
such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the
Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective
agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred,
and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture
Trustee except as a result of negligence or willful misconduct.

     (e)   Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture
Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to
authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any
Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election
of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

                                       35

<PAGE>

     (f)   All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or
under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other
Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by
the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses,
disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor
Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the
benefit of the Holders of the Notes of the affected Series as provided herein.

     (g)   In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any
Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to
which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be
held to represent all the Holders of the Notes of the affected Series, and it
shall not be necessary to make any such Noteholder a party to any such
Proceedings.

     Section 5.5. Remedies; Priorities.

     (a)   If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with
respect to any Series, and the Notes of such Series have been accelerated
pursuant to Section 5.3, the Indenture Trustee may do one or more of the
following (subject to Sections 5.6 and 12.16):

           (i)   institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an
     express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes
     of the affected Series or under this Indenture with respect thereto,
     whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and
     collect from the Issuer the portion of the Collateral allocated to such
     Series and any other obligor upon such Notes moneys adjudged due;

           (ii)  take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the
     rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes
     of the affected Series;

           (iii) cause the Issuer to sell Principal Receivables (or interests
     therein) in an amount equal to the Invested Amount of the accelerated
     Series and the related Finance Charge Receivables in accordance with
     Section 5.16;

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not exercise the remedy
described in subparagraph (iii) above unless (A) (1) the Holders of Notes
representing 100% of the principal balance of the Outstanding Notes of the
affected Series consent in writing thereto, (2) the Indenture Trustee determines
that any proceeds of such exercise distributable to the Noteholders of the
affected Series are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and
unpaid upon the

                                       36

<PAGE>

Notes for principal and interest and is directed to exercise this remedy by
Holders of Notes representing more than 50% of the principal balance of the
Outstanding Notes of such Series, or (3) the Indenture Trustee determines that
the Collateral may not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of
principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the
Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains
the consent of the Holders of Notes representing at least 66-2/3% of the
principal balance of the Outstanding Notes of each Class of such Series and (B)
the Indenture Trustee has obtained an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
exercise of such remedy complies with applicable federal and state securities
laws. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses
(A)(2) and (A)(3), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and
conclusively rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or
accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed
action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral for such purpose.

         The remedies provided in this Section 5.5(a) are the exclusive remedies
provided to the Noteholders with respect to the Collateral and each of the
Noteholders (by their acceptance of their respective interests in the Notes) or
the Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waive any other remedy that might have
been available under the applicable UCC.

         (b) If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to
this Article V following the acceleration of the Notes of the affected Series
pursuant to Section 5.3 (so long as such a declaration shall not have been
rescinded or annulled), it shall pay out the money or property in the following
order:

         FIRST:       to the Indenture Trustee for amounts due pursuant to
                      Section 6.7; and

         SECOND:      unless otherwise specified in the related Indenture
                      Supplement, to the Servicer for distribution in accordance
                      with Article IV of the related Indenture Supplement with
                      such amounts being deemed to be Principal Collections and
                      Finance Charge Collections in the same proportion as (x)
                      the outstanding principal balance of the Notes bears to
                      (y) the sum of the accrued and unpaid interest on the
                      Notes and other fees and expenses payable in connection
                      therewith under the applicable Indenture Supplement,
                      including the amounts payable under any Enhancements with
                      respect to such Series.

         (c) The Indenture Trustee may, upon written notification to the Issuer,
fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders of the
affected

                                       37

<PAGE>

Series pursuant to this Section 5.5. At least fifteen (15) days before such
record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail or send by facsimile, at the
expense of the Servicer, to each such Noteholder a notice that states the record
date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

         Section 5.6. Optional Preservation of the Collateral. If the Notes of
any Series have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.3 following
an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been
rescinded and annulled, and the Indenture Trustee has not received directions
from the Noteholders pursuant to Section 5.12, the Indenture Trustee may, but
need not, elect to maintain possession of the portion of the Collateral which
secures such Notes and apply proceeds of the Collateral to make payments on such
Notes to the extent such proceeds are available therefor. It is the desire of
the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient
funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the
Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether
or not to maintain possession of the Collateral. In determining whether to
maintain possession of the Collateral, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not,
obtain and conclusively rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment
banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such
proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral for such purpose.

         Section 5.7. Limitation on Suits. No Noteholder shall have any right by
virtue of any provisions of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or
proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture,
unless such Noteholder previously shall have given notice to the Indenture
Trustee, and unless the Holders of Notes evidencing Undivided Interests
aggregating more than 66-2/3% of the Invested Amount of any Series which may be
adversely affected but for the institution of such suit, action or proceeding
shall have made written request upon the Indenture Trustee to institute such
action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder and
shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may
require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or
thereby, and the Indenture Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to
institute any such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended,
and being expressly covenanted by each Noteholder with every other Noteholder
and the Indenture Trustee, that no one or more Noteholders shall have the right
in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing itself or themselves of any
provisions of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Noteholders of any other of the Notes, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority
over or preference to any other such Noteholder, or to enforce any right under
this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable
and common benefit of all Noteholders. For the protection and enforcement of the
provisions of this Section, each and every

                                       38

<PAGE>

Noteholder and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be
given either at law or in equity. Each Note Owner by its acquisition of a Book
Entry Note shall be deemed to have consented to the provisions of this Section.

         Section 5.8.  Unconditional Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal
and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, each
Noteholder shall have the right which is absolute and unconditional to receive
payment of the principal of and interest in respect of such Note as such
principal and interest becomes due and payable and to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Noteholder.

         Section 5.9.  Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture
Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned, or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such
Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and
the Noteholder shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders
shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

         Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right, remedy, power
or privilege herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to
the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege, and every right, remedy, power or privilege shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right, remedy,
power or privilege given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy shall not
preclude any other further assertion or the exercise of any other appropriate
right or remedy.

         Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No failure to exercise and
no delay in exercising, on the part of the Indenture Trustee or of any
Noteholder or other Person, any right or remedy occurring hereunder upon any
Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver
thereof of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and
remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the
Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

         Section 5.12. Rights of Noteholders to Direct Indenture Trustee. The
Holders of Notes representing more than 50% of the principal balance of the
Outstanding Notes of any affected Series shall have the right to direct in
writing the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy

                                       39

<PAGE>

available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to such Series or exercising any
trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee with respect to such Series;
provided, however, that subject to Section 6.1:

         (a) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to decline any such
direction if the Indenture Trustee, after being advised by counsel, determines
that the action so directed is in conflict with any rule of law or with this
Indenture, and

         (b) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to decline any such
direction if the Indenture Trustee in good faith shall, by a Trustee Officer of
the Indenture Trustee, determine that the Proceedings so directed would be
illegal or involve the Indenture Trustee in personal liability or be unjustly
prejudicial to the Noteholders not parties to such direction.

         Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the declaration of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes of the affected Series as provided in
Section 5.3, Holders of Notes representing more than 66 2/3% of the principal
balance of the Outstanding Notes of such Series (or with respect to any such
Series with two or more Classes, of each Class), may, on behalf of all such
Noteholders, waive in writing any past default, with written notice to the
Indenture Trustee, with respect to such Notes and its consequences, except a
default:

         (a) in the payment of the principal or interest in respect of any Note
of such Series, or

         (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Section
10.2 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Noteholder of each
Outstanding Note affected.

         Upon any such written waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and
any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

         Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture
agree, and each Noteholder by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have
agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against
the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as
Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its
discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant (other than the Indenture Trustee) in such suit,
having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by
such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.14 shall not apply

                                       40

<PAGE>

to any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, to any suit instituted by any
Noteholder, or group of Noteholders (in compliance with Section 5.8), holding
Notes representing more than 10% of the principal balance of the Outstanding
Notes of the affected Series, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for
the enforcement of the payment of the principal or interest in respect of any
Note on or after the Distribution Date on which any of such amounts was due (or,
in the case of redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date).

         Section 5.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist
upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, which may adversely affect the covenants or the performance
of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants
that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein
granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of
every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

         Section 5.16. Sale of Receivables.

         (a) The method, manner, time, place and terms of any sale of
Receivables (or interests therein) pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(iii) shall be
commercially reasonable. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone
any sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale. The
Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law
as compensation for any sale.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and
attorney-in-fact of the Issuer in connection with any sale of Receivables (or
interests therein) pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(iii). No purchaser or transferee
at any such sale shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee's authority,
inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the
application of any monies.

         (c) In its exercise of the foreclosure remedy pursuant to Section
5.5(a)(iii), the Indenture Trustee shall solicit bids for the sale of Principal
Receivables (or interests therein) in any amount equal to the Invested Amount of
the affected Series of Notes at the time of sale and the related Finance Charge
Receivables (or interests therein). The Transferor or any of its affiliates
shall be entitled to participate in, and to receive from the Indenture Trustee a
copy of each other bid submitted in connection with, such bidding process;
provided that (i) at least one participant other than the Transferor and any of
its affiliates must submit a bona fide offer, and (ii) the Transferor and any of
its affiliates are prohibited from bidding an amount which exceeds fair value
for the transferred assets. The

                                       41

<PAGE>

Indenture Trustee shall sell such Receivables (or interests therein) to the
bidder with the highest cash purchase offer. The proceeds of any such sale shall
be applied as specified in the applicable Indenture Supplement.

         Section 5.17. Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek
and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected
by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief under or with
respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or
remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the
recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the
levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral or
upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the
Indenture Trustee shall be applied as specified in Section 5.5(b) and the
applicable Indenture Supplement.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

Section 6.1.      Duties of the Indenture Trustee.

         (a) If an Event of Default or an Early Amortization Event shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and
powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill
in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs.

         (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

             (i)  the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and
         only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no
         implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
         against the Indenture Trustee; and

             (ii) in the absence of bad faith or negligence on its part, the
         Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
         statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
         certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and, if
         required by the terms of this Indenture, conforming to the requirements
         of this Indenture; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall
         examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
         conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

                                       42

<PAGE>

     (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful
misconduct, except that:

         (i)   this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this
Section 6.1;

         (ii)  the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of
judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that
the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the

grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it
against such risk or liability is not assured or provided to it.

the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and the TIA.

     Section 6.3. Rights of Indenture Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 6.1:

     (a) the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely and shall fully be
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent,
order, bond, note or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

     (b) except during the continuance of an Event of Default, whenever in the
administration of this Indenture the Indenture Trustee shall deem it desirable
that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting
any action hereunder, the Indenture Trustee (unless other evidence be herein
specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part,
conclusively rely upon an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer. The Issuer shall
provide a copy of such Officer's Certificate to the Noteholders at or prior to
the time the Indenture Trustee receives such Officer's Certificate;

     (c) as a condition to the taking, suffering or omitting of any action by it

in-good faith and in reliance thereon;

     (d) the Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of
the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or to honor the request or
direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such
Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall relieve the Indenture Trustee of the
obligations upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been cured
or waived) to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Indenture and to use the same degree of care or skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his or her own affairs;

     (e) the Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
note or other paper or document, but the Indenture Trustee at the written
direction of one or more of the Noteholders and at the expense of the
Noteholders, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation
into such facts or matters as it may

                                       44

<PAGE>

see fit, and, if the Indenture Trustee shall determine to make such further
inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and
premises of the Issuer and the Servicer, personally or by agent or attorney;

     (f) the Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder
or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents,
attorneys, custodians or nominees and the Indenture Trustee shall not be
responsible for any (i) misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent,
attorney, custodians or nominees appointed with due care by it hereunder or (ii)
the supervision of such agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees after such
appointment with due care;

     (g) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any actions taken,

within the discretion or rights conferred upon the Indenture Trustee by this
Indenture; and

     (h) in the event that the Indenture Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent
and Transfer Agent and Registrar and Successor Servicer, if it becomes Successor
Servicer pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the
rights and protections afforded to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this
Article VI shall also be afforded to such Paying Agent and Transfer Agent and
Registrar and Successor Servicer, if it becomes Successor Servicer pursuant to
Section 7.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.

     Section 6.4. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The
recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the certificate of
authentication of the Indenture Trustee, shall be taken as the statements of the
Issuer, and the Indenture Trustee assumes no responsibility for their
correctness. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor any of its agents makes any
representation as to the validity or sufficiency of the Indenture, the Notes, or
any related document. The Indenture Trustee shall not be accountable for the use
or application by the Issuer of the proceeds from the Notes.

     Section 6.5. Restrictions on Holding Notes. The Indenture Trustee shall not
in its individual capacity, but may in a fiduciary capacity, become the owner or
pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer with the same rights it

Registrar or such other agent. Any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar
that is not also the Indenture Trustee or any other agent of the Issuer, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and
may otherwise deal with the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were
not Indenture Trustee, Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar or such other
agent.

     Section 6.6. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Indenture Trustee in
trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds held by the Indenture
Trustee in trust hereunder except to the extent required herein or required by
law. The Indenture Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money
received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed upon in writing by the
Indenture Trustee and the Issuer.

     Section 6.7. Compensation, Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Servicer
shall pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation as
has been agreed to in writing between the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee for
all services rendered by the Indenture Trustee and the Authenticating Agent
under this Indenture (which compensation shall not be limited by any law on
compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Servicer shall reimburse the
Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by
it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its
services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel,
accountants and experts, except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may
arise from its negligence or bad faith and except as concerning fees of the
Servicer if and at such time as the Indenture Trustee is acting as the Successor
Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.
The Issuer shall direct the Servicer to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and
the Servicer shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee and its officers, directors,
employees and agents against any and all loss, liability, expense, damage or
claim (including the reasonable fees of either in-house counsel or outside
counsel) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and
the performance of its duties hereunder and under any other Transaction
Document, including any claim arising from any failure by Issuer or Transferor
to pay when due any sales, excise, transfer or personal taxes relating to the
Receivables. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Servicer
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture
Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Servicer shall not relieve the Issuer or
the Servicer of its obligations hereunder unless such loss, liability or expense
could have been avoided with such prompt notification and then only to the
extent of such loss, expense or liability which could have been so avoided. The
Servicer shall defend any claim against the Indenture Trustee; provided,
however, the Indenture Trustee may have separate counsel and, if it does, the
Servicer shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the
Issuer nor the Servicer need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any
loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the
Indenture Trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

     The Servicer's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.7 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture or earlier
resignation

                                       46

<PAGE>

or removal of the Indenture Trustee. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses
after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.2(c) or 5.2(d) with
respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

     Section 6.8. Replacement of Indenture Trustee. No resignation or removal of
the Indenture Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall
become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8. The Indenture Trustee may resign at any
time by giving thirty (30) days written notice to the Issuer and the Rating
Agencies. The Holders of Notes representing more than 66 2/3% of the Outstanding
Amount may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee in
writing and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Administrator shall
remove the Indenture Trustee upon written notice if:

             (i)   the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

             (ii)  the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

             (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the appointment of a
     conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of
     debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or
     relating to the Indenture Trustee or all or substantially all of its
     property, or a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
     authority having the jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a
     conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of
     debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for
     the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered
     against the Indenture Trustee; or the Indenture Trustee shall admit in
     writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a
     petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization
     statue, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily
     suspend payment of its obligations; or

             (iv)  the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes legally unable to
     act.

If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event
being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Administrator
shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.

     A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and to the Issuer.

                                       47

<PAGE>

Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall
become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor
Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The
retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as
Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee, subject to the payment of
any an all amounts then due and owing to the Indenture Trustee.

         If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60)
days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of Notes representing more than 50%
of the Outstanding Amount may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

         If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any
Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

         Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.8, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.7 shall continue for
the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

         The Administrator shall notify the Rating Agencies of any replacement
of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8.

         Section 6.9. Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger. If the Indenture
Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation
or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation
without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided that
such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and
eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Rating
Agencies prior written notice of any such transaction.

         In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion,
consolidation or transfer to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts
created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not
delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate
of authentication of any predecessor Indenture Trustee and deliver such Notes so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such
Notes in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such
cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the
Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Indenture
Trustee shall have.

Trustee.

     (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time,
for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which
any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee
shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one
or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or
separate trustees, of all or any part of the Collateral, and to vest in such
Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such
title to the Collateral, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other
provisions of this Section 6.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and
trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to
Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be
required under Section 6.8.

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

         (i)   all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
     upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised
     or performed by the Indenture 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 Indenture
     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 Indenture 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 Collateral 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
     Indenture Trustee;

         (ii)  no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any
     act or omission of any other trustee hereunder;

         (iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of
     or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee; and

         (iv)  the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any act or failure
     to act on the part of any separate trustee or co-trustee.

     (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee
shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-

                                       49

trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and
the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon

property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the
Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the
provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with
the Indenture Trustee.

     (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the
Indenture Trustee, 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 Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

or long-term unsecured debt obligations that satisfies the rating requirement of
any other Rating Agency assigning a rating for any Class of Notes of any then
outstanding Series and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state
authority. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA (S)310(b), including the
optional provision permitted by the second sentence of TIA (S)310(b)(9);
provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA
(S)310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities of the
Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA
(S)310(b)(1) are met.

     Section 6.12. Preferential Collection of Claims Against. The Indenture
Trustee shall comply with TIA (S)311(a), excluding any creditor relationship

and other property payable to or receivable by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall hold all such money and property
received by it in trust for the Noteholders and shall apply it as provided in
this Indenture. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, if any
default occurs in the making of any payment or performance under the Transfer
and Servicing Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Indenture Trustee
may, and upon the written request of the Holders of Notes representing

                                       53

<PAGE>

more than 50% of the principal balance of the Outstanding Notes of the affected
Series shall, subject to Sections 6.1(f) and 6.3(d) take such action as may be
appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution
and prosecution of appropriate Proceedings. Any such action shall be without
prejudice to any right to claim a Early Amortization Event or a Default or Event
of Default under this Indenture and to proceed thereafter as provided in Article
V.

     Section 8.2. Rights of Noteholders. The Collateral shall secure the rights
of the Holders of the Notes of each Series to receive the portion of Collections
allocable to the Noteholders of such Series pursuant to this Indenture and the
related Indenture Supplement, funds and other property credited to the
Collection Account and the Excess Funding Account (or any subaccount thereof)
allocable to the Noteholders of such Series pursuant to this Indenture and such
Indenture Supplement, funds and other property credited to any related Series
Account and funds available pursuant to any related Series Enhancement, it being
understood that, except as specifically set forth in the Indenture Supplement
with respect thereto, the Notes of any Series or Class shall not be secured by
any interest in any Series Account or Series Enhancement pledged for the benefit
of any other Series or Class.

     Section 8.3. Establishment of Collection Account and Allocations with
Respect to the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate. From and after the
Certificate Trust Termination Date:

     (a) The Collection Account. The Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of
the Noteholders, shall establish and maintain or cause to be established and
maintained in the name of the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, with
an Eligible Institution a segregated trust account (the "Collection Account"),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all
right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the
Collection Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Collection Account shall be
under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of
the Noteholders. If, at any time, the institution holding the Collection Account
ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on
its behalf) shall within five Business Days establish a new Collection Account
meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution and shall
transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Collection Account, and
from the date such new Collection Account is established, it shall be the
"Collection Account." Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in
Section 3.1(b) of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall have
the power, revocable by the Indenture Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments
from the Collection Account and to instruct the Indenture Trustee to make
withdrawals and payments

                                       54

<PAGE>

from the Collection Account for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer's or
the Indenture Trustee's duties hereunder.

         (b) Administration of the Collection Account. At the written direction
of the Servicer, funds on deposit in the Collection Account to be invested shall
be invested by the Indenture Trustee in Eligible Investments selected by the
Servicer. In the absence of written direction of the Servicer, funds on deposit
in the Collection Account shall be invested in money market funds as specified
in clause (v) of the definition of Eligible Investments. All such Eligible
Investments shall be held by the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders. Investments of funds representing Collections collected during any
Collection Period shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so
that such funds will be available by the close of business on the Transfer Date
next succeeding such Collection Period. Any funds on deposit in the Collection
Account to be so invested shall be invested solely in Eligible Investments. All
Eligible Investments shall be held to maturity. The Indenture Trustee shall
maintain possession of the negotiable instruments or securities, if any,
evidencing such Eligible Investments. On each Distribution Date, all interest
and other investment earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds
on deposit in the Collection Account shall be paid to the Holder of the
Exchangeable Transferor Certificate. The Transferor, at its option, may direct
the Servicer's investment of funds pursuant to this Section 8.3(b).

         (c) Allocations For the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate. The
Servicer shall allocate to the Holder of the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate
an amount equal to the product of (i) the Transferor Percentage and (ii) the
aggregate amount of Collections allocated to Principal Receivables and Finance
Charge Receivables, respectively, in respect of each Collection Period.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.3, unless specified in any
Indenture Supplement, the Servicer need not deposit this amount, or any other
amounts so allocated to the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate pursuant to any
Indenture Supplement, into the Collection Account and shall pay such amounts as
collected to the Holder of the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate.

         (d) Allocation of Collections Between Collections of Principal
Receivables and Collections of Finance Charge Receivables. The Servicer shall
allocate Collections processed with respect to any Account to Finance Charge
Receivables to the extent of outstanding Finance Charge Receivables with respect
to such Account. The balance of Collections processed with respect to such
Account shall be allocated to Principal Receivables.

         (e) Collections. The Servicer will apply all Collections with respect
to the Receivables for each Collection Period as described in this Article VIII
and each Indenture Supplement. Except as otherwise provided below, the Servicer
shall deposit all Collections into the Collection Account no later than the
second Business Day following the Date of Processing of such Collections.
Subject to

                                       55

<PAGE>

the express terms of any Indenture Supplement, but notwithstanding anything else
in this Indenture to the contrary, for so long as, and only so long as, the Bank
or an Affiliate of the Bank shall be the Servicer hereunder and (i) the Bank or
such Affiliate shall maintain a short-term debt rating (which may be an implied
rating) of at least P-1 by Moody's and A-1 by Standard & Poor's, or (ii) the
Bank or such Affiliate shall obtain and maintain in force a letter of credit or
other surety covering collection risk of the Servicer approved in writing by
each Rating Agency and the holders of 66-2/3% of the Invested Amount of each
Class of Notes of any then outstanding Series which is not assigned a rating by
any Rating Agency (it being understood that any such letter of credit must
include, without limitation, provisions acceptable to each Rating Agency and
such holders addressing the downgrade or withdrawal of any required debt rating
maintained by the issuer of such letter of credit), or (iii)(A) the Bank shall
obtain the consent of the holders of 66-2/3% of the Invested Amount of each
Class of Notes of any then outstanding Series which is not assigned a rating by
any Rating Agency and such consent shall not have been withdrawn in accordance
with the terms of the related Indenture Supplement and (B) the Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied with respect to the Servicer's inability to satisfy
the rating requirement specified in clause (i), and for two Business Days
following any reduction of either such rating or failure to satisfy the
conditions of clause (ii), the Servicer need not deposit Collections into the
Collection Account or make payments to the holder of the Exchangeable Transferor
Certificate prior to the close of business on the second Business Day following
the Date of Processing, but rather may make a single deposit in the Collection
Account in immediately available funds on the Business Day prior to each
Distribution Date in an amount equal to the Collections with respect to the
Collection Period preceding such Distribution Date to the extent such amounts
and Collections are allocated to one or more Series in accordance with Article
VIII. Collections shall not be required to be invested in Eligible Investments
until such time as they are deposited into the Collection Account. The Servicer
shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of any downgrade or withdrawal of
its short-term credit or certificate of deposit rating or, if an Affiliate of
the Bank is acting as Servicer hereunder, of any such downgrade or withdrawal
with respect to such Affiliate.

         If the Servicer is required to make daily deposits of Collections into
the Collection Account pursuant to this subsection, the Servicer may, prior to
the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event and subject to the provisions of
the applicable Indenture Supplement, cease depositing Collections of Finance
Charge Receivables received during any Collection Period and allocable to a
Series at such time as the amount of Collections of Finance Charge Receivables
allocable to such Series and deposited into the Collection Account equals the
sum of (i) the amount of interest scheduled to be paid on the next succeeding
Distribution Date with respect to such Series, (ii) if the Bank is no longer the
Servicer, the Investor Monthly Servicing Fee scheduled to be paid on such
Distribution Date with

                                       56

<PAGE>

respect to such Series and (iii) the Pro Forma Investor Default Amount for such
Distribution Date with respect to such Series. Collections of Finance Charge
Receivables allocable to such Series in excess of such amount shall be
distributed in a daily basis as they are collected to the Transferor.

         If the Servicer is required to make daily deposits of Collections into
the Collection Account pursuant to this subsection, the Servicer may, during any
Amortization Period and subject to the provisions of the applicable Indenture
Supplement, cease depositing Collections of Principal Receivables received
during any Collection Period and allocable to a Series at such time as the
amount of Collections of Principal Receivables allocable to such Series and
deposited into the Collection Account equals the amount of principal scheduled
or permitted to be paid on the next succeeding Distribution Date with respect to
such Series. Collections of Principal Receivables allocable to such Series in
excess of such amount shall be distributed on a daily basis as they are
collected to the Transferor.

         (f) Excess Funding Account. The Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of
the Noteholders, shall establish and maintain or cause to be established and
maintained in the name of the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, with
an Eligible Institution a segregated trust account (the "Excess Funding
Account"), which may be a subaccount of the Collection Account, bearing a
designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the
benefit of the Investor Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all
right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the
Excess Funding Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Excess Funding Account
shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the
benefit of the Noteholders. If, at any time, the institution holding the Excess
Funding Account ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Indenture Trustee (or
the Servicer on its behalf) shall within five Business Days establish a new
Excess Funding Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible
Institution and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new
Excess Funding Account, and from the date such new Excess Funding Account is
established, it shall be the "Excess Funding Account." Pursuant to the authority
granted to the Servicer in Section 3.1(b) of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreement, the Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Indenture
Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments from the Excess Funding Account and to
instruct the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Excess
Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out the Servicer's or the Indenture
Trustee's duties hereunder.

         At the written direction of the Servicer, funds on deposit in the
Excess Funding Account to be invested shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee
in Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer. In the absence of written
direction of the Servicer, funds on deposit in the Excess Funding Account shall
be invested in money market funds as specified in clause (v) of the definition
of Eligible Investments. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee
shall maintain for the

                                       57

<PAGE>

benefit of the Noteholders possession of the negotiable instruments or
securities, if any, evidencing such Eligible Investments. Funds on deposit in
the Excess Funding Account on any date (after giving effect to any withdrawals
from the Excess Funding Account on such date) will be invested in Eligible
Investments that will mature so that funds will be available at the close of
business on the next Business Day following such date. On each Determination
Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw on the next
succeeding Distribution Date from the Excess Funding Account and deposit in the
Collection Account all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and
investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Excess Funding Account, for
application as Collections of Finance Charge Receivables with respect to the
prior Collection Period. Interest (including reinvested interest) and other
investment income and earnings on funds on deposit in the Excess Funding Account
shall not be considered part of the Excess Funding Amount for purposes of this
Indenture. On each Business Day, the Servicer shall determine the Transferor
Amount. If the Transferor Amount exceeds the Minimum Transferor Amount on any
Business Day, the Servicer may instruct the Indenture Trustee in writing to
withdraw an amount equal to such excess (but not to exceed the Excess Funding
Amount) from the Excess Funding Account on such day and pay such amount to the
Holder of the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate. If the Minimum Transferor
Amount exceeds the Transferor Amount on any Business Day, the Servicer shall
deposit Collections of Principal Receivables that would otherwise be distributed
to the Transferor on such day into the Excess Funding Account on such day in an
amount equal to such excess. On each Determination Date on which one or more
Series is in an Amortization Period, the Servicer shall determine the aggregate
amount of Principal Shortfalls, if any, with respect to each such Series that is
a Principal Sharing Series (after giving effect to the allocation and payment
provisions in the Indenture Supplement with respect to each such Series on the
next succeeding Distribution Date), and the Servicer shall instruct the
Indenture Trustee to withdraw such amount (up to the Excess Funding Amount) from
the Excess Funding Account on the next succeeding Distribution Date and allocate
such amount among each such Series as Shared Principal Collections as specified
in each related Indenture Supplement.

         (g) Shared Principal Collections. On each Distribution Date, (i) the
Servicer shall allocate Shared Principal Collections to each Principal Sharing
Series in a Group, pro rata, in proportion to the Principal Shortfalls, if any,
with respect to each such Series and (ii) the Servicer shall withdraw (or shall
instruct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw) from the Collection Account or the
Excess Funding Account and pay to the Holder of the Exchangeable Transferor
Certificate (A) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the aggregate
amount of Shared Principal Collections for all such Series for such Distribution
Date over (y) the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all such Series
for such Distribution Date and (B) the aggregate amount for all outstanding
Series of that

                                       58

<PAGE>

portion of Collections which the related Indenture Supplements specify are to be
allocated and paid to the Transferor with respect to such Distribution Date;
provided, however, that such amounts shall be paid to the Holder of the
Exchangeable Transferor Certificate only to the extent that the Transferor
Amount for such Distribution Date (determined after giving effect to any
Principal Receivables transferred to the Issuer on such date) exceeds the
Minimum Transferor Amount; and, provided further, that, if on any Distribution
Date the Transferor Amount is less than or equal to the Minimum Transferor
Amount, the Servicer will not distribute to the Holder of the Exchangeable
Transferor Certificate any Shared Principal Collections then on deposit in the
Collection Account that otherwise would be distributed to such Holder, but shall
deposit such funds in the Excess Funding Account.

         (h) Shared Excess Finance Charge Collection. On each Distribution Date,
(i) the Servicer shall allocate Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections with
respect to the Series in a Group to each Series in such Group, pro rata, in
proportion to the Finance Charge Shortfalls, if any, with respect to each such
Series and (ii) the Servicer shall withdraw (or shall instruct the Indenture
Trustee to withdraw) from the Collection Account and pay to the Holder of the
Exchangeable Transferor Certificate an amount equal to the excess, if any, of
(x) the aggregate amount of Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections for all
such Series for such Distribution Date over (y) the aggregate amount of Finance
Charge Shortfalls for all such Series for such Distribution Date to the extent
any Shared Excess Finance Charge Collections are held on deposit in the
Collection Account.

         (i) Net Deposits. For so long as the Bank or an Affiliate of the Bank
shall be the Servicer hereunder and a Servicer Default shall not have occurred
and be continuing, the Servicer may make deposits into the Collection Account or
the Excess Funding Account on any date net of amounts payable as of such date to
the Transferor or the Servicer from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account
or the Excess Funding Account and may make deposits into the Collection Account
on each Transfer Date net of amounts payable on the following Distribution Date
to the Transferor or the Servicer from amounts on deposit in the Collection
Account, it being understood that the Investor Monthly Servicing Fee with
respect to any Series shall be payable to the Servicer only in accordance with
the provisions specified in the related Indenture Supplement and that the
foregoing shall in no event increase the amount payable to the Transferor or the
Servicer hereunder or pursuant to any Indenture Supplement.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                    DISTRIBUTIONS AND REPORTS TO NOTEHOLDERS

         Distributions shall be made to, and reports shall be provided to,

                                       59

<PAGE>

the Noteholders with respect to distributions and reports shall be determined
according to the immediately preceding Record Date.

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

     Section 10.1. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders.

     (a) Without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but with prior notice
to each Rating Agency with respect to the Notes of all Series rated by such
Rating Agency, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an
Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more
indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the TIA
as in force at the date of the execution thereof), in form satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

         (i)   to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time
     subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and
     confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be
     subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this
     Indenture additional property;

         (ii)  to evidence the succession, in compliance with Section 3.12, of
     another person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of
     the covenants of the Issuer contained herein and in the Notes;

         (iii) to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the
     Holders of the Notes, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred
     upon the Issuer;

         (iv)  to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to
     or with the Indenture Trustee;

         (v)   to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
     herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any
     other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or to make any
     other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this
     Indenture or in any supplemental indenture; provided that such action shall
     not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes;

         (vi)  to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment
     hereunder by a successor indenture trustee with respect to the Notes and to
     add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be
     necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by

                                       60

<PAGE>

     more than one indenture trustee, pursuant to the requirements of
     Article VI;

         (vii)  to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture
     to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this
     Indenture under the TIA or under any similar federal statute hereafter
     enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be
     expressly required by the TIA;

         (viii) to provide for the issuance of one or more new Series of Notes,
     in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11; or

         (ix)   to provide for the termination of any interest rate swap
     agreement or other form of credit enhancement or maturity guarantee
     agreement in accordance with the provisions of the related Indenture
     Supplement.

     The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any
such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and
stipulations that may be therein contained.

     (b) The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer
Order, may, also without the consent of any Noteholders of any Series then
Outstanding but upon satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to
the Notes of all Series, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental
hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided,
however that the Transferor shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate, dated the date of any such action,
stating that all requirements for such amendments contained in the Indenture
have been met and the Transferor reasonably believes that such action will not
have an Adverse Effect. Additionally, notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, may,
without the consent of any Noteholders of any Series then Outstanding or the
Series Enhancers for any Series, enter into an indenture or indentures
supplemental hereto to add, modify or eliminate such provisions as may be
necessary or advisable in order to enable all or a portion of the Issuer (i) to
qualify as, and to permit an election to be made to cause the Issuer to be
treated as, a "financial asset securitization investment trust" as described in
the provisions of Section 860L of the Code, and (ii) to avoid the imposition of
state or local income or franchise taxes imposed on the Issuer's property or its
income; provided, however, that (i) the Transferor delivers to the Indenture
Trustee and the Owner Trustee an Officer's Certificate to the effect that the
proposed amendments meet the requirements set forth in this Section 10.1(b),
(ii) the Rating Agency Condition will have been satisfied and (iii)

                                       61

<PAGE>

such amendment does not affect the rights, duties, protections, indemnities,
immunities or obligations of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee
hereunder. The amendments which the Transferor may make without the consent of
Noteholders pursuant to the preceding sentence may include the addition or sale
of Receivables.

     Section 10.2. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders. The
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may,
upon satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition and with the consent of the
Holders of Notes representing more than 66-2/3% of the principal balance of the
Outstanding Notes of each adversely affected Series, by Act of such Holders
delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or
indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to,
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or
of modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders under this Indenture;
provided, however that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent
of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby:

     (a) change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on
any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate specified
thereon or the redemption price with respect thereto or change any place of
payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or any interest
thereon is payable;

     (b) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the
provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds available
therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the
Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

     (c) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Notes of any Series the
consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture,
or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance
with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and
their consequences as provided for in this Indenture;

     (d) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Notes of any Series, the
consent of the Holders of which is required to direct the Indenture Trustee to
sell or liquidate the Collateral if the proceeds of such sale would be
insufficient to pay the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest on the
outstanding Notes of such Series;

     (e) decrease the percentage of the Outstanding Notes required to amend the
sections of this Indenture which specify the applicable percentage of

                                       62

<PAGE>

the Outstanding Notes of any Series necessary to amend the Indenture or any
Transaction Documents which require such consent;

     (f) modify or alter the provisions of this Indenture prohibiting the voting
of Notes held by the Issuer, any other Obligor on the Notes, a Transferor or any
affiliate thereof; or

     (g) permit the creation of any Lien ranking prior to or on a parity with
the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Collateral for any
Notes or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the
Lien of this Indenture on any such Collateral at any time subject hereto or
deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the Lien of this
Indenture.

     The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any
Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination
shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or
thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall
not be liable for any such determination made in good faith.

     Satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition shall not be required with
respect to the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section
10.2 for which the consent of all of the affected Noteholders is required.

     It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section
10.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but
it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

     Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 10.2, the Indenture Trustee
shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental
indenture relates written notice setting forth in general terms the substance of
such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect
the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

     Section 10.3. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or
permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article X or the modification thereby of the trusts created by
this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the
execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into
any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee's own rights,
duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

     Section 10.4. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any
supplemental indenture under this Article X, this Indenture shall be modified in
accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this
Indenture for all purposes, and every Holder of Notes theretofore or thereafter
authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby. This Section 10.4
does not apply to Indenture Supplements.

     Section 10.5. Conformity With Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment of this
Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article X
shall conform to the requirements of the TIA as then in effect so long as this
Indenture shall then be qualified under the TIA.

     Section 10.6. Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Notes
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article X may, and if required by the Indenture Trustee shall,
bear a notation in form approved by the Indenture Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer shall so determine,
new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by
the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange
for the outstanding Notes.

     Section 11.1. Termination of Issuer. The Issuer and the respective
obligations and responsibilities of the Indenture Trustee created hereby (other
than the obligation of the Indenture Trustee to make payments to Noteholders as
hereinafter set forth) shall terminate, except with respect to the duties
described in Section 11.2(b), as provided in the Trust Agreement.

     Section 11.2. Final Distribution.

     (a) The Servicer shall give the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies
at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of the Distribution Date on which
the Noteholders of any Series or Class may surrender their Notes for payment of
the final distribution on and cancellation of such Notes (or, in the event of a
final distribution resulting from the application of Section 2.6 of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreement, notice of such Distribution Date promptly after the
Servicer has determined that a final distribution will occur, if such
determination is made less than thirty (30) days prior to such Distribution
Date). Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officer's Certificate setting
forth the information specified in Section 3.5 of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreement covering the period during the then-current calendar year through the
date of such

                                       64

<PAGE>

notice. Not later than the fifth day of the month in which the final
distribution in respect of such Series or Class is payable to Noteholders, the
Indenture Trustee shall provide notice to Noteholders of such Series or Class
specifying (i) the date upon which final payment of such Series or Class will be
made upon presentation and surrender of Notes of such Series or Class at the
office or offices 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 such
Notes at the office or offices therein specified (which in the case of Bearer
Notes shall be outside the United States). The Indenture Trustee shall give such
notice to the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Paying Agent at the time such
notice is given to Noteholders.

     (b) Notwithstanding a final distribution to the Noteholders of any Series
or Class (or the termination of the Issuer), except as otherwise provided in
this paragraph, all funds then on deposit in the Collection Account and any
Series Account allocated to such Noteholders shall continue to be held in trust
for the benefit of such Noteholders and the Paying Agent or the Indenture
Trustee shall pay such funds to such Noteholders upon surrender of their Notes,
if certificated (and any excess shall be paid in accordance with the terms of
any Enhancement Agreement). In the event that all such Noteholders shall not
surrender their Notes for cancellation within six (6) months after the date
specified in the notice from the Indenture Trustee described in paragraph (a),
the Indenture Trustee shall give a second notice to the remaining such
Noteholders to surrender their Notes for cancellation and receive the final
distribution with respect thereto (which surrender and payment, in the case of
Bearer Notes, shall be outside the United States). If within one year after the
second notice all such Notes shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Indenture Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to
take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining such Noteholders concerning
surrender of their Notes, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds in
the Collection Account or any Series Account held for the benefit of such
Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee and, upon the written request of the
Servicer, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer any monies held by them for
the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two (2) years
pursuant to and as described in Section 3.3. After payment to the Issuer,
Noteholders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as general
creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person.

     Section 11.3. Issuer's Termination Rights. Upon the termination of the
Issuer pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall
assign and convey to the Holders of the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate,
upon their direction, or any of their designees, without recourse,
representation or warranty, all right, title and interest of the Issuer in the
Receivables, whether then existing or thereafter created, all Recoveries related
thereto all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable
with respect thereto (including

                                       65

<PAGE>

all moneys then held in the Collection Account or any Series Account) and all
proceeds thereof, except for amounts held by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
Section 11.2(b). The Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer and assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall
be reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of the Exchangeable Transferor
Certificate to vest in the Holders of the Exchangeable Transferor Certificate or
any of their designees all right, title and interest which the Indenture Trustee
had in the Collateral and such other property.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 12.1. Compliance Certificates and Opinions etc.

     (a)  Upon any application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee
to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Issuer shall
furnish to the Indenture Trustee (i) an Officer's Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the
proposed action have been complied with and (ii) (if required by the TIA) an
Independent Certificate from a firm of certified public accountants meeting the
applicable requirements of this Section 12.1, except that, in the case of any
such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is
specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no additional
certificate or opinion need be furnished.

     Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or
covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

           (i)   a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion
     has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the
     definitions herein relating thereto;

           (ii)  a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination
     or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such
     certificate or opinion are based;

           (iii) a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory, such
     signatory has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to
     enable such signatory to express an informed opinion as to whether or not
     such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

           (iv)  a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such
     signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

                                       66

<PAGE>

     (b) Other than with respect to the release of any Receivables in Removed
Accounts, whenever any property or investment property is to be released from
the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each
person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90) days of
such release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating
that in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the
security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.1, the Issuer may (A)
collect, liquidate, sell or otherwise dispose of Receivables as and to the
extent permitted or required by the Transaction Documents and (B) make cash
payments out of the Series Accounts as and to the extent permitted or required
by the Transaction Documents.

     Section 12.2. Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee. In any case
where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion
of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified
by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so
certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or
give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons
as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to
such matters in one or several documents.

     Any certificate or opinion of a Responsible Officer of the Issuer may be
based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of,
or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to the matters upon which such officer's certificate or opinion is
based are erroneous. Any such certificate of a Responsible Officer or Opinion of
Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a
certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the
Servicer, a Transferor, the Issuer or the Administrator, stating that the
information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Servicer, a Transferor, the Issuer or the Administrator, unless such Responsible
Officer or Counsel has actual knowledge that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

     Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two (2) or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

     Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer
shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application,
or as

                                       67

<PAGE>

evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that
the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at
the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to conclusively rely upon the
truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as
provided in Article VI.

     Section 12.3. Acts of Noteholders.

     (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders
may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially
similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by their agents duly
appointed in writing and satisfying any requisite percentages as to minimum
number or dollar value of outstanding principal amount represented by such
Noteholders; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action
shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the
Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer.
Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced
thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Noteholders
signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such
instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any
purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and
the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 12.3.

     (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument
or writing may be proved in any manner which the Indenture Trustee deems
sufficient.

     (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

     (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder (and any
transferee thereof) of every Note issued upon the registration thereof in
exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or
suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

     Section 12.4. Notices, Etc. to Indenture Trustee and Issuer. Any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders
or other documents provided or permitted by the Indenture to be made upon, given
or furnished to, or filed with:

                                       68

<PAGE>

     (a) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in
writing to a Trustee Officer, by facsimile transmission or by other means
acceptable to the Indenture Trustee to or with the Indenture Trustee at its
Corporate Trust Office; or

     (b) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first-class
postage prepaid, to the Issuer addressed to it and received by at [ ], or at any
other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the
Issuer. A copy of each notice to the Issuer shall be sent in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to the Administrator at First North American
National Bank, 225 Chastain Meadows Court, Kennesaw, Georgia 30144, Attn.: Chief
Financial Officer, (fax) (770) 792-7132, (phone) (770) 792-4600.

     Section 12.5. Notices to Noteholders; Waiver. Where the Indenture provides
for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given
(unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed by
registered or certified mail or first class postage prepaid or national
overnight courier service to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its
address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and
not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In
any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to
mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular
Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
Noteholders, and any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall
conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

     Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be
waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before
or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.
Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.

     In the event that, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical
to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be
given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving
such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to
be a sufficient giving of such notice.

     Where this Indenture provides for notice to any Rating Agency, failure to
give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created
hereunder and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of
Default.

                                       69

     Section 12.6.  Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer,
with the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, may enter into any
agreement with any Holder of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice
by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different
from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices.
The Issuer will furnish to the Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement
and the Indenture Trustee will cause payments to be made and notices to be given
in accordance with such agreements.

     Section 12.7.  Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof
limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to
be included in this indenture by any of the provisions of the TIA, such required
provision shall control.

     The provisions of TIA (S)(S)310 through 317 that impose duties on any
person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless
expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,

     Section 12.9.  Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this
Indenture by the Issuer and the Servicer shall bind their respective successors
and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

     Section 12.10. Separability. In case any provision in this Indenture or in
the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.

     Section 12.11. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the
Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Noteholders, the Servicer and the
Transferor, any benefit.

     Section 12.12. Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on which any
payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and
effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no additional interest
shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES
HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

     Section 12.14. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

     Section 12.15. Issuer Obligation. No recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or
the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or
other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, (ii) any

beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any holder of a
beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or
of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it
being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such
obligations in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner,
owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable
law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or
failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of
this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer
hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits
of, the terms and provisions of Articles V, VI and VII of the Trust Agreement.

     Section 12.16. No Petition. The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this
Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenant and agree

Master Trust or the Transferor, or join in instituting against the Issuer, FNANB
Credit Card Master Trust or the Transferor any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under

                                       to
                                MASTER INDENTURE

                     PERFECTION REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES
                                  AND COVENANTS

         (A) Effective on the Initial Closing Date and on each Closing Date with
respect to each Series prior to the Certificate Trust Termination Date, in
addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the
Indenture, Issuer hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Indenture
Trustee as follows:

         (1) The Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as
defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral Certificate (the "Collateral"
for the purposes of this paragraph (A)) in favor of the Indenture Trustee, which
security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such
against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer (other than Liens permitted
pursuant to paragraph (A)(3) below).

         (2) The Collateral Certificate constitutes a "certificated security,"
"instrument" or "general intangible" within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

         (3) Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to the Collateral
free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person; provided that
nothing in this paragraph 3 shall prevent or be deemed to prohibit Issuer from
suffering to exist upon any of the Collateral any Liens for any taxes if such
taxes shall not at the time be due and payable or if Issuer shall currently be
contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate proceedings and
shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves under GAAP with respect
thereto. Issuer has received all consents and approvals required by the terms of
the Collateral to the grant of a security interest in the Collateral hereunder
to the Indenture Trustee.

         (4) (a) If perfection is by filing (i) Issuer has caused, or will have
caused within 10 days, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the
proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in
order to perfect the security interest in the Collateral granted to the
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. (b) If perfection is by possession, all
original executed copies of each promissory note or security certificate that
constitute or evidence the Collateral have been delivered to the Indenture
Trustee. Each security certificate either (i) is in bearer form, (ii) has been
indorsed, by an effective endorsement, to the Indenture Trustee or in blank or
(iii) has been registered in the name of the Indenture Trustee. (c) With regard
to Eligible Investments that constitute "deposit accounts" within the meaning of
the applicable UCC (the "deposit accounts"), Issuer has delivered to the
Indenture Trustee a fully executed agreement pursuant to which the bank
maintaining the deposit accounts has agreed to comply with all instructions
originated by the Indenture Trustee

                                       B-1

<PAGE>

directing disposition of the funds in such deposit accounts without further
consent by the Issuer, or Issuer has taken all steps necessary to cause
Indenture Trustee to become the account holder of the deposit accounts. (d) If
perfection is by control, with regard to Eligible Investments that constitute
"uncertificated securities" within the meaning of the applicable UCC, each
issuer of Eligible Investments that constitutes an uncertificated security has
registered the Indenture Trustee as the registered owner, or the Issuer is the
registered owner of such uncertificated security and has agreed in writing that
it will comply with instructions originated by the Indenture Trustee without
further consent by the Issuer.

         (5) Other than the grant of a security interest in the Collateral to
the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, Issuer has not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the
Collateral. Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any
financing statements against Issuer that include a description of collateral
covering the Collateral other than any financing statement relating to the
security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture or that
has been terminated. (a) If perfection is by filing, Issuer has in its
possession all original copies of the promissory notes or security certificates
that constitute or evidence the Collateral. The promissory notes or security
certificates that constitute or evidence the Collateral do not have any marks or
notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed
to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee. All financing statements to be
filed against the Issuer in favor of the Indenture Trustee in connection
herewith describing the Collateral will contain a statement to the effect that
"A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this
financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee". (b) If
perfection is by possession, none of the promissory notes or security
certificates that constitute or evidence the Collateral has any marks or
notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed
to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee. With regard to deposit accounts,
the deposit accounts are not in the name of any Person other than the Issuer or
the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer has not consented to the bank maintaining the
deposit accounts to comply with instructions of any Person other than the
Indenture Trustee.

         (6) Issuer is not aware of any judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings
against Issuer.

         (7) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture, the
representations and warranties set forth in this Annex B shall be continuing,
and remain in full force and effect, until such time as all Notes have been
finally and fully paid. The parties hereto shall not, without satisfying the
Rating Agency Condition, waive a breach of any representation or warranty set
forth in this Annex B. In order to evidence the interests of Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, Issuer and Servicer shall take such
action, or execute and deliver such instruments (other than filing financing
statements) as may be necessary or advisable (including, without limitation,
such actions as are

                                       B-2

<PAGE>

requested by Indenture Trustee) to maintain and perfect, as a first priority
interest, Issuer's or the Indenture Trustee's security interest in the
Collateral. The Servicer shall, from time to time and within the time limits
established by law, prepare and present to the Indenture Trustee for the
Indenture Trustee's authorization and approval all financing statements,
amendments, continuations or initial financing statements in lieu of a
continuation statement, or other filings necessary to continue, maintain and
perfect such security interest as a first priority interest. The Indenture
Trustee's approval of such filings shall authorize the Servicer to file such
financing statements under the applicable UCC without the signature of Issuer or
Indenture Trustee where allowed by applicable law. Notwithstanding anything else
in the Indenture to the contrary, the Servicer shall not have any authority to
file a termination, partial termination, release, partial release, or any
amendment that deletes the name of a debtor or excludes collateral of any such
financing statements, without the prior written consent of the Indenture
Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may require, prior to authorizing or filing any
such termination, partial termination, release, partial release or amendment,
that Servicer provide an Opinion of Counsel that such filings are authorized
under the Indenture.

         (B) Effective on the Certificate Trust Termination Date and on each
Closing Date with respect to each Series after the Certificate Trust Termination
Date, in addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in
the Indenture, Issuer hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Indenture
Trustee as follows:

         (1) The Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as
defined in the applicable UCC) in (i) the Receivables conveyed (whether as a
valid transfer or as a grant of a security interest) to the Issuer pursuant to
the Servicing Agreement and (ii) Eligible Investments (the Eligible Investments
together with the Receivables, the "Collateral" for the purposes of this
paragraph (B)) in favor of the Indenture Trustee, which security interest is
prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and
purchasers from the Issuer (other than Liens permitted pursuant to paragraph
(B)(3) below).

         (2) The Receivables constitute "accounts" within the meaning of the
applicable UCC. The Eligible Investments constitute "instruments," "payment
intangibles," "uncertificated securities" or "deposit accounts" under the
applicable UCC.

         (3) Immediately prior to the grant of the security interest in the
Collateral pursuant to the Indenture, Issuer owns and has good and marketable
title to the Collateral free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any
Person; provided that nothing in this paragraph 3 shall prevent or be deemed to
prohibit Issuer from suffering to exist upon any of the Collateral any Liens for
any taxes if such taxes shall not at the time be due and payable or if Issuer
shall currently be contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves under GAAP

                                       B-3

original executed copies of each promissory note or security certificate that
constitute or evidence the Collateral have been delivered to the Indenture
Trustee. Each security certificate either (i) is in bearer form, (ii) has been
indorsed, by an effective endorsement, to the Indenture Trustee or in blank or
(iii) has been registered in the name of the Indenture Trustee. (c) With regard
to Eligible Investments that constitute "deposit accounts" within the meaning of
the applicable UCC, Issuer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee a fully
executed agreement pursuant to which the bank maintaining the deposit accounts
has agreed to comply with all instructions originated by the Indenture Trustee
directing disposition of the funds in such deposit accounts without further
consent by the Issuer, or Issuer has taken all steps necessary to cause
Indenture Trustee to become the account holder of the deposit accounts. (d) If
perfection is by control, with regard to Eligible Investments that constitute
"uncertificated securities" within the meaning of the applicable UCC, each
issuer of Eligible Investments that constitutes an uncertificated security has
registered the Indenture Trustee as the registered owner, or the Issuer is the
registered owner of such uncertificated security and has agreed in writing that
it will comply with instructions originated by the Indenture Trustee without
further consent by the Issuer.

         (5) Other than the grant of a security interest in the Collateral to
the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, Issuer has not pledged,

that constitute or evidence the Collateral. The promissory notes or security
certificates that constitute or evidence the Collateral do not have any marks or

to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee. With regard to deposit accounts,
