the collection of Yield in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law;
and provided further that Yield for any Rate Tranche shall not be considered
paid by any distribution to the extent that at any time all or a portion of such
distribution is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason and
provided, further, should an Event of Termination occur and be continuing, Yield
shall be at a rate equal to 2% per annum above the Alternate Base Rate.

            "Yield and Fee Reserve" means, on any date, an amount equal to

                  AUYF + (FP x YFRP) + (SF x OB) + DAF

            where:

                  AUYF = accrued and unpaid Yield, Servicer Fee,
                         Disbursement Agent Fee and Fees on such date.

                  SF   = the Servicer Fee Percentage.

                  FP   = the Facility Principal at the close of business of the
                         Servicer on such date.

                  OB   = the Outstanding Balance of all Receivables, at the end
                         of the most recently ended Month.

                  YFRP = the Yield and Fee Reserve Percentage on such date.

                  DAF  = the Disbursement Agent Fee calculated as the product of
                         (a) the annual Disbursement Agent Fee and (b) the
                         fraction (expressed as a percentage), (i) the numerator
                         of which is the sum of (x) the RTD plus (y) the
                         Collection Delay Period, and (ii) the denominator of
                         which is 360.

                  RTD  = the highest three-Month rolling average Receivable
                         Turnover Days as calculated as of the last day of the
                         twelve most recently ended Months.

            "Yield and Fee Reserve Percentage" means, on any date, a percentage
equal to

                        1.5 x (AER + PF) x (RTD + CDP)
                        ------------------------------
                                  360

                  where:

                  AER  = the one-Month Adjusted Eurodollar Rate in effect on
                         such date plus the then Applicable Margin.

                  PF   = the Program Fee (as defined in the Fee Agreement), in
                         effect on such date.

                  RTD  = the highest three-Month rolling average Receivable
                         Turnover Days as calculated as of the last day of the

                                   ARTICLE II

                       AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES

      SECTION 2.01. Loan Facility.

            (a) On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, CAFCO and
each other Investor may, in its sole discretion, ratably in accordance with the
Investor Facility Amount of its Group make loans (the "Advances"), and, if and
to the extent CAFCO or any other Investor does not make an Advance, the Related
Banks for such Investor shall, ratably in accordance with their respective Bank
Commitments, make Advances to the Borrower from time to time during the period
from the date hereof to and including the Facility Termination Date (in the case
of the Investors) and to and including the Commitment Termination Date (in the
case of the Banks). Under no circumstances shall the Investors make any such
Advance, or the Banks be obligated to make any such Advance, if after giving
effect to such Advance the Facility Principal would exceed the lesser of (i) the
Borrowing Base and (ii) the Facility Amount.

            (b) The Borrower may at any time upon at least five Business Days'
notice to the Agents, terminate the facility provided for in this Agreement in
whole or, from time to time, reduce in part the unused portion of the Facility
Amount; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least
$1,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

            (c) On the Cash Secured Advance Commencement Date for any Group,
each Bank in such Group shall, and severally agrees to, make an advance to the
Borrower in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the excess of (i) such Bank's
Bank Commitment over (ii) the unpaid Principal amount of Advances held by such
Bank on such date (including Advances purchased or to be purchased on such date
pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement to which such Bank is a party), and
such Bank shall make such advance by causing an amount equal to such advance to
be deposited in same day funds into the Collateral Advance Account.

                                       32
<PAGE>

      SECTION 2.02. Making Advances.

            (a) Each Advance by any of the Investors or the Banks shall be made
on at least three Business Days' notice from the Borrower to the Program Agent
and each Investor Agent, provided that Advances shall be made not more than six
(6) times in any Month. Each such notice of an Advance shall specify (i) the
amount requested to be paid to the Borrower (such amount, which shall not be
less than $1,000,000, being referred to herein as the initial "Principal" of the
Advance then being made), (ii) the allocation of such amount among each of the
Groups (which shall be proportional to the Investor Facility Amount of each
Group), and (iii) the date of such Advance (which shall be a Business Day). Each
Investor shall promptly notify the Program Agent whether such Investor has
determined not to make the requested Advance on the terms specified by the
Borrower. The Program Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Borrower
whether the Investors have determined not to make the requested Advance. All
Advances by members of each Group shall be evidenced by a Note to the order of
the Investor Agent for such Group.

            If any Investor has determined not to make the entire amount of a
proposed Advance requested to be made by it, the Investor Agent for such
Investor shall promptly send notice of the proposed Advance to all of the
Related Banks for such Investor concurrently by telecopier, telex or cable
specifying the date of such Advance, the aggregate amount of Principal of each
Advance to be made by such Related Banks (which amount shall be equal to the
portion of the initial Principal requested to be funded by such Investor, which
such Investor determined not to fund), each such Related Bank's portion thereof
(determined ratably in accordance with its respective Bank Commitment), whether
the Yield for the Fixed Period for such Advance is calculated based on the
Eurodollar Rate (which may be selected only if such notice is given at least
three Business Days prior to the date of such Advance) or the Alternate Base
Rate, and the duration of the Fixed Period for such Rate Tranche (which shall be
one day if the Borrower has not selected another period and such Advance is to
be funded at the Alternate Base Rate); provided, however, that during the Term
Period for any Group, each Bank in such Group shall, at least two Business Days
prior to the date of such Advance, instruct the Program Agent to provide written
instruction to the Disbursement Agent to wire (or otherwise transfer in
immediately available funds) on the date of such Advance to the Borrower at the
Borrower's Account such Bank's Ratable Share of the amount of the Principal of
the Advances to be made by such Group out of the funds available therefor in the
Collateral Advance Account.

            (b) On the date of each such Advance, the applicable Investors
and/or Banks, as the case may be, shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable
conditions set forth in this Article II and Article III, make available to the
Borrower in same day funds, at the account set forth in the Funds Transfer
Letter, an aggregate amount equal to the initial Principal of such Advance;
provided, however, if such Advance is being made by the applicable Banks
following the designation by the Investor Agent for an Investor of a Termination
Date for an Advance owned by such Investor pursuant to clause (a)(i) of the
definition of Termination Date and any Principal of such Advance is outstanding
on the date of the requested Advance, the Borrower hereby directs the applicable
Banks to pay the proceeds of such Advance (to the extent of the outstanding
Principal and accrued Yield on such Advance of such Investor) to the relevant
Investor Agent's Account, for application to the reduction of the outstanding
Principal and accrued Yield on such Advance of such Investor; provided, further,
however, that during the

                                       33
<PAGE>

Term Period for any Group, after receipt by the Program Agent of the instruction
from each Bank in such Group referred to in the proviso to the last sentence of
Section 2.02(a) and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article III, the Program Agent shall notify the Disbursement Agent of the date
and amount of such Advance and shall direct the Disbursement Agent to wire (or
otherwise transfer in immediately available funds) to the Borrower at the
Borrower's Account such Bank's Ratable Share of such Group's amount of such
Advance, and after receipt by the Disbursement Agent of such direction from the
Program Agent, the Disbursement Agent shall wire (or otherwise transfer in
immediately available funds) to the Borrower by deposit to the Borrower's
Account each such Bank's Ratable Share of such Group's amount of such Advance
solely out of the funds available therefor in the Collateral Advance Account,
and upon such deposit each such Bank will be deemed to have paid to the Borrower
such Bank's Ratable Share of such Group's amount of the Principal of the Advance
being made for all purposes of this Agreement.

            (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Investor shall make an
Advance under this Section 2.02 at any time in an amount which would exceed the
Investor Facility Amount of such Investor's Group and (ii) a Bank shall not be
obligated to make Advances under this Section 2.02 at any time in an amount
which would exceed such Bank's Bank Commitment less the sum of (A) the aggregate
outstanding and unpaid amount of any Advances made by such Bank under such
Bank's Asset Purchase Agreement plus (B) such Bank's ratable share of the
aggregate outstanding portion of Principal held by the Investor in such Bank's
Group (whether or not any portion thereof has been assigned under an Asset
Purchase Agreement), after giving effect to reductions of the Principal held by
the Investor in such Bank's Group to be made on the date of such Advance
(whether from the distribution of Collections or from the proceeds of Advances
by such Bank). Each Bank's obligation shall be several, such that the failure of
any Bank to make available to the Borrower any funds in connection with any
Advance shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to
make funds available on the date of such purchase, but no Bank shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make funds available in
connection with any Advance.

      SECTION 2.03. Settlement Procedures. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, this Section 2.03 shall only be effective from and after the
making of the Initial Advance.

            (a) Deposits Into The Disbursement Agent's Account. On each Business
Day, prior to 2 P.M. (New York City time), the Servicer shall transfer all
Collections on deposit in the Deposit Accounts to the Disbursement Agent's
Account, and the Borrower shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, transfer to the
Disbursement Agent's Account all Deemed Collections received from an Originator
or SPE I.

            (b) Disbursement Agent's Account Disbursements During Revolving
Period. On each Business Day during the Revolving Period, prior to 5 P.M. (New

solely on the report or certificate described with respect to each item below),

the following order:

                                       34
<PAGE>

                  (i) first, if a Pool Non-compliance Date shall have occurred
and be continuing, deposit to the Cure Account an amount such that the Facility
Principal (less an amount equal to the Cure Funds then in the Cure Account)
equals the Borrowing Base (as such Pool Non-compliance Date and such amount is
identified in the most recently delivered Applicable Report);

                  (ii) second, if such Business Day is a Payment Date, pay to
the Yield/Fee Account an amount equal to the unpaid fees, expenses and
disbursements owed or reimbursable under the Transaction Documents actually
incurred by the Disbursement Agent (as certified in reasonable detail to the
Servicer in writing by the Disbursement Agent);

                  (iii) third, if such Business Day is a Deposit Date or Payment
Date, deposit to the Yield/Fee Account an amount equal to (as such amount is
identified in the most recently delivered Payment Direction) the sum of (x) the
amount of accrued Yield and other Fees for each Fixed Period ending on or before
the last day of the most recently ended Month, plus (y) during the Term Period
for any Group, the Excess Interest accrued through the last day of the most
recently ended Month in respect of all Cash Secured Advances, in each case to
the extent the same has not been previously so deposited in the Yield/Fee
Account;

                  (iv) fourth, if the Servicer is not an Originator or one of
its Affiliates and if such Business Day is a Payment Date, set aside and hold in
the Yield/Fee Account, in trust for such Servicer, the accrued and unpaid
Servicer Fee (as such amount is identified in the most recently delivered
Payment Direction);

                  (v) fifth, if any Obligations (other than Advances, Yield,
Fees, the Disbursement Agent's Fees and expenses and the Servicer Fee) are then
due and payable by Borrower to any Beneficiary, Affected Person or Indemnified
Party, pay to each such Beneficiary, Affected Person or Indemnified Party
(ratably in accordance with the amounts owing to each), the Obligations so due
and payable (as identified in accordance with Section 2.03(g));

                  (vi) sixth, if the Servicer is an Originator or one of its
Affiliates and if such Business Day is a Distribution Date, set aside and hold
in the Disbursement Agent's Account, in trust for the Servicer, the accrued and
unpaid Servicer Fee (as such amount is identified in the most recently delivered
Applicable Report); and

                  (vii) seventh, remit any remaining Collections to the Borrower
for application in accordance with Section 2.03(h) below (any such remittance, a
"Release"); provided, that if the conditions precedent for such Release set
forth in Section 3.02 are not satisfied, the Disbursement Agent shall retain
such Collections in the Disbursement Agent Account for application on the next
Business Day in accordance with this Section 2.03 or Section 2.04, as
applicable; provided further that the Borrower may instruct the Servicer to
direct the Disbursement Agent to hold in the Disbursement Agent's Account all or
a portion of the Collections otherwise to be Released for application on the
next Business Day in accordance with this Section 2.03 or Section 2.04.

            (c) Disbursement Agent's Account Disbursements During Amortization
Period. On each Business Day during the Amortization Period, prior to 5 P.M.
(New York City Time) the Disbursement Agent shall, from funds on deposit in the
Disbursement Agent's Account, at such time and in the following order:

                  (i) set aside and hold in the Disbursement Agent's Account, in
trust for the Beneficiaries and the Servicer (only with respect to the amounts
attributable to the Servicer Fee), all of the Collections until payment in full
of the Obligations (the date of which Program Agent shall notify the
Disbursement Agent in writing) for disbursement in accordance with Section
2.04(c); and

                  (ii) after the Facility Termination Date and payment in full
of the Obligations, deposit to the Borrower's Account the remainder of such
Collections.

            (d) Disbursements from Cure Account During Revolving Period.

                  (i) On any Business Day during the Revolving Period, the
Borrower may instruct the Disbursement Agent by an officer's certificate
delivered to the Disbursement Agent by 1 P.M. (New York City time) to, and the
Disbursement Agent shall, transfer to the Borrower's Account Cure Funds, if any,
held in the Cure Account; provided that such officer's certificate shall state
that (A) the conditions precedent for a Release are satisfied under Section 3.02
and (B) after taking account of such requested withdrawal, the Borrowing Base on
such day is equal to or greater than the Facility Principal (less an amount
equal to the Cure Funds that will be in the Cure Account immediately following
such withdrawal) and shall set forth the calculation supporting such statement;

                  (ii) On any Business Day during the Revolving Period, the
Borrower may, upon at least two Business Days' prior notice to the Agents (but,
in no event more than once in any calendar week after taking into consideration
any payment made pursuant to the first clause of Section 2.04(b)(i)), instruct
the Disbursement Agent by an officer's certificate delivered to the Disbursement
Agent by 1 P.M. (New York City time) to distribute Cure Funds in the Cure
Account, and the Disbursement Agent shall transfer from the Cure Account to the
Investor Agent's Accounts for the ratable payment of the Facility Principal to
the relevant Investors and Banks, the amount set forth in such certificate; and

                  (iii) On each Distribution Date during the Revolving Period,
the amounts on deposit in the Cure Account shall be disbursed in accordance with
Section 2.04(b) or (c), as applicable.

            (e) Allocation of Collections.

                  (i) If on any day any Receivable becomes (in whole or in part)

a Collection of such Receivable in the amount of such Diluted Receivable;

                                       36
<PAGE>

                  (ii) If on any day any of the representations or warranties
contained in Section 4.01(h) is no longer true with respect to any Receivable,
the Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such
Receivable in full;

                  (iii) Except with respect to Deemed Collections, or as
otherwise required by applicable law or the relevant Contract, all Collections
received from an Obligor of any Receivables shall be applied to the Receivables
of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the
oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates its payment for
application to specific Receivables; and

                  (iv) If and to the extent the Program Agent or any of the
Investor Agents, the Investors or the Banks shall be required for any reason to
pay over to an Obligor any amount received on its behalf hereunder, such amount
shall be deemed not to have been so received but rather to have been retained by
the Borrower and, accordingly, the Program Agent or such Investor Agent, the
Investors or the Banks, as the case may be, shall have a claim against the
Borrower for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution
from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.

            (f) Required Payment of Yield, Fees and Other Obligations.

                  (i) To the extent that as of any Regular Payment Date the
amounts deposited to the Yield/Fee Account with respect to any Fixed Period are
insufficient to pay all the accrued but unpaid Yield, Fees, and Excess Interest,
the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to the Program Agent on the Regular
Payment Date, for the account of the Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents
and the Program Agent, an amount equal to the balance of such accrued and unpaid
amounts by deposit of such amount to the Disbursement Agent's Account. The
Disbursement Agent shall deposit such funds into the Yield/Fee Account and shall
subsequently distribute such funds as set forth in Section 2.04(a) or (c), as
applicable.

                  (ii) To the extent that as of any Payment Date the amounts
deposited to the Disbursement Agent's Account with respect to any Fixed Period
are insufficient to pay all the accrued but unpaid Disbursement Agent's Fee,
Disbursement Agent's expenses and (if payable to a Servicer other than an
Originator or one of its Affiliates) Servicer Fee, the Borrower shall be
obligated to pay to the Disbursement Agent's Account for the benefit of the
Disbursement Agent and the Servicer (if applicable), an amount equal to the
balance of such accrued and unpaid amounts by deposit of such amount to the
Disbursement Agent's Account. The Disbursement Agent shall deposit such funds
into the Yield/Fee Account and shall subsequently distribute such funds as set
forth in Section 2.04(a) or (c), as applicable.

            (g) Disbursement Instructions and Invoice With Respect to Yield and
Fees. Allocation of any amounts towards payments to be made pursuant to Section
2.03(b)(v) above shall be subject to the receipt by the Disbursement Agent of at
least one Business Day's prior notice thereof from the Program Agent. Within one
Business Day after the end of each Fixed Period, each Investor Agent shall
furnish the Borrower, the Servicer, the Program Agent and the Disbursement Agent
with an invoice setting forth the amount of the accrued and unpaid Yield and
Fees for such Fixed Period with respect to the unpaid Advances held by the
Investors and the Banks in such Investor Agent's Group.

pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(vii) and Section 2.04(b)(iv) shall be applied by the
Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower: (i) first, if so requested by the Borrower,
to pay or prepay (or set aside for the payment or prepayment of ) Advances, (ii)
second, to pay the purchase price for Transferred Assets to be acquired by the
Borrower from SPE I on such day under the Secondary Purchase Agreement, (iii)
third, to repay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the
Subordinated Note, and (iv) fourth, in such other manner as the Borrower may
specify and that is not prohibited by the terms of the Facility Documents.

            (i) Directions to Disbursement Agent. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth in this Section 2.03, each of the parties hereto agrees
that the Disbursement Agent shall follow, and shall be entitled to rely on, any
written instructions delivered by the Program Agent with respect to
disbursements to be made pursuant to this Section 2.03 notwithstanding any
contrary instructions set forth in any Payment Direction, other Applicable
Report or certificate delivered to the Disbursement Agent hereunder.

      SECTION 2.04. Distributions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, this Section 2.04 shall only be effective from and after the making of
the Initial Advance.

            (a) On each Regular Payment Date during the Revolving Period, the
Disbursement Agent shall distribute the funds on deposit in the Yield/Fee
Account (subject to Section 2.04(d) and except with respect to clause (ii)
below, based solely on the most recently delivered Payment Direction):

                  (i) ratably to the Program Agent and the Investor Agent's
Accounts, the accrued and unpaid Fees and any other amounts due under the Fee
Agreement;

                  (ii) to the Disbursement Agent, the accrued and unpaid
Disbursement Agent's Fee and reasonable expenses of the Disbursement Agent
reimbursable under this Agreement and the Disbursement Agent's Fee Letter for
the immediately preceding Month;

                  (iii) to the Investor Agent's Accounts, for distribution to
the Investors and the Banks that own Advances, all Yield accrued thereon during
or prior to the Fixed Period most recently ended and, during or prior to the
Term Period for any Group, to the Term-Out Banks, any remaining unpaid interest
accrued during the Fixed Period most recently ended on the Cash Secured Advances
pursuant to Section 2.14; and

                  (iv) to the Servicer (if the Servicer is other than an

            (b) During the Revolving Period, on each Distribution Date, the
Disbursement Agent shall distribute the funds on deposit in the Disbursement
Agent's Account and, for application to clause (i) below only, the Cure Account

Section 2.04(d), and except as set forth in clause (i), based solely on the most
recently delivered Payment Direction);

                  (i) to the Investor Agent's Accounts for the ratable payment
of Facility Principal due and payable to the relevant Investors and Banks, (x)
all amounts held in the Cure Account or held in the Disbursement Agent's Account
at the Borrower's direction pursuant to Section 2.03(e) and (y) all other
amounts required for payment in addition to the amounts in clause (x) so that
the Facility Principal equals (and is not greater than) the Borrowing Base (as
such total amount is identified in the most recently delivered Applicable
Report); provided, however, that during the Term Period for any Group, the
Disbursement Agent shall instead deposit such Group's ratable portion of such
payment to the Collateral Advance Account (resulting in a reduction of the
Advances of the Term-Out Banks in such Group and an increase in the Cash Secured
Advances of such Banks) to be held for the purposes set forth in Section
2.16(a);

                  (ii) to the Investor Agent's Accounts, or to such account as

clauses (i) through (iii) above, for Release in accordance with Section 2.03(h)
above; provided, that if the conditions precedent for such Release set forth in
Section 3.02 are not satisfied, the Disbursement Agent shall retain such
Collections in the Disbursement Agent Account for application on the next
Business Day in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 2.04, as applicable;
provided further that the Borrower may instruct the Servicer to direct the
Disbursement Agent to hold in the Disbursement Agent's Account all or a portion
of the Collections otherwise to be Released for application on the next Business
Day in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 2.04.

            (c) On each Distribution Date during the Amortization Period, the
Disbursement Agent shall distribute the funds on deposit in the Disbursement
Agent's Account, the Yield/Fee Account and the Cure Account on such Distribution
Date, in the following order of priority, in accordance with, subject to Section
2.04(d), the most recently delivered Payment Direction:

                  (i) to the Disbursement Agent, accrued and unpaid Disbursement
Agent's Fee and reasonable expenses of the Disbursement Agent reimbursable under
this Agreement and the Disbursement Agent's Fee Letter;

                  (ii) to the Servicer (if the Servicer is other than an

<PAGE>

                        (B) for distribution to the applicable Investors and the
            Banks that own Advances in payment in full of all accrued Yield
            thereon and, during the Term Period for any Group, to the Term-Out
            Banks in payment of any remaining unpaid accrued interest on the
            Cash Secured Advances pursuant to Section 2.14;

                  (iv) to the Investor Agent's Accounts, for the ratable

                  (v) to the Investor Agent's Accounts, or such other account as
directed in writing by the applicable Beneficiary, Affected Person or

applicable Beneficiaries, Affected Persons and Indemnified Parties under the
Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, any principal amounts of
the Cash Secured Advances, if any, remaining after the application of the Cash
Collateral in accordance with Section 2.16(d));

                  (vi) to the Servicer (if the Servicer is an Originator or one
of its Affiliates), the accrued and unpaid Servicer Fee; and

                  (vii) after the payment in full of the amounts specified in
clauses (i) through (vi) above, to the Borrower.

Following the Facility Termination Date and upon payment in full to all of the
Investors and the Banks of the Facility Principal, all accrued and unpaid Yield
thereon and all other amounts due the Beneficiaries, Affected Persons and
Indemnified Parties under the Transaction Documents, payment in full to the
Servicer of the Servicer Fee, and payment in full to the Disbursement Agent of
the Disbursement Agent's Fee and all reasonable expenses of the Disbursement

all amounts, if any, remaining in the Disbursement Agent Accounts shall be
distributed by the Disbursement Agent to the Borrower; provided, however, that
if at any time after the payment that would have otherwise resulted in such
payment in full, such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any
reason, effective upon such rescission or return such payment in full shall
automatically be deemed, as between the Beneficiaries and the Borrower, never to
have occurred, and the Borrower shall be required, to the extent it received any
amounts under this Section 2.04, to remit to the Disbursement Agent an amount
equal to the rescinded or returned payment.

            (d) Directions to Disbursement Agent. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth in this Section 2.04, each of the parties hereto agrees
that the Disbursement Agent shall follow, and shall be entitled to rely on, any
written instructions delivered by the Program Agent with respect to
disbursements to be made pursuant to this Section 2.04 notwithstanding any
contrary instructions set forth in any Payment Direction or other Applicable
Report delivered to the Disbursement Agent hereunder.

                                       40

      SECTION 2.05. Fees.

            (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Servicer a fee (the "Servicer
Fee") of 0.50% per annum on the average daily Outstanding Balance of the
Receivables from the date of this Agreement until the later of the last
Termination Date for all Rate Tranches or the date on which the Facility
Principal is reduced to zero, payable in arrears on (i) each Payment Date if
such Servicer is not an Originator or one of its Affiliates, and (ii) on each
Distribution Date if such Servicer is an Originator or one of its Affiliates.
Upon three Business Days' notice to the Borrower, the Program Agent and each
Investor Agent, the Servicer (if not the Originator, the Borrower or its
designee or an Affiliate of the Borrower) may elect to be paid, as such fee,
another percentage per annum on the average daily Outstanding Balance of the
Receivables, but in no event in excess of 110% of the reasonable costs and
expenses of the Servicer in administering and collecting the Receivables. The
Servicer Fee shall be payable only from Collections pursuant to, and subject to
the priority of payment set forth in, Section 2.03. So long as HLIOC is acting
as the Servicer hereunder, amounts paid as the Servicer Fee pursuant to this
Section 2.05(a) shall reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the obligation of
the Borrower to pay the "Servicer Fee" pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Secondary
Purchase Agreement, provided that such obligation of the Borrower to pay the
Servicer Fee shall in no event be reduced below zero.

            (b) The Borrower shall pay to the Program Agent certain fees
(collectively, the "Fees") in the amounts and on the dates set forth in a
separate fee agreement of even date between the Borrower and the Program Agent
(as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from
time to time, the "Fee Agreement").

      SECTION 2.06. Payments and Computations, Etc.

            (a) Unless otherwise specified herein, all amounts to be paid or
deposited by the Borrower or the Servicer hereunder shall be paid or deposited
no later than 2 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds
to the applicable Investor Agent's Account.

            (b) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer shall, to the extent
permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by it when
due hereunder, at an interest rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the
Alternate Base Rate, payable on demand.

            (c) All computations of interest under clause (b) above and all
computations of Yield, fees, and other amounts hereunder (including, without
limitation, interest on Cash Secured Advances during the Term Period) shall be
made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including
the first but excluding the last day) elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit
to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such
payment or deposit shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such
extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or
deposit.

            (d) The Disbursement Agent shall have no obligation to perform any
of the calculations required to be made by the terms of this Agreement.

                                       41
<PAGE>

            (e) All amounts to be paid hereunder shall be paid in the lawful
money of the United States of America.

            (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement are solely the obligations of
the Borrower payable solely from the Collateral. No recourse under any
obligation, covenant or agreement of the Borrower contained in this Agreement or
implied therefrom shall be had against any member, stockholder, manager,
officer, director, incorporator, employee, agent or any Affiliate of the
Borrower, and any and all liability for breaches by the Borrower for any such
obligations, covenants or agreements, either at common law or equity, or by
statute, rule or regulation, of every such member, stockholder, manager,
officer, director, incorporator, employee, agent or Affiliate is hereby
expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of
this Agreement; provided, that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Person
from any liability it might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions
taken or omissions made by them; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not
relieve Parent, HLIOC, Servicer, SPE I or any Originator from its own
contractual obligations under any of the Transaction Documents.

      SECTION 2.07. Dividing or Combining Rate Tranches. Either the Borrower or
any Investor Agent may, upon notice to the other party (with a copy of such
notice to the Program Agent) received at least three Business Days prior to the
last day of any Fixed Period for any Rate Tranche in the case of the Borrower
giving notice, or up to the last day of such Fixed Period in the case of an
Investor Agent giving notice, either (a) divide any portion of such Rate Tranche
held by one or more Investors and/or Banks in its Group into two or more Rate
Tranches of such Investors and/or Banks having an aggregate principal amount
equal to the principal amount of such divided portion of such Rate Tranche, or
(b) combine any two or more portions of Rate Tranches held by one or more
Investors and/or Banks in its Group originating on such last day or having Fixed
Periods ending on such last day into a single Rate Tranche having a principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Rate Tranches; provided,
however, that no Rate Tranche relating to Advances held by an Investor may be
combined with a Rate Tranche relating to Advances held by any Bank.

      SECTION 2.08. Increased Costs.

            (a) If CNAI, any Investor, any Investor Agent, any Bank, any entity
(including any bank or other financial institution providing liquidity and/or
credit support to any Investor in connection with such Investor's commercial
paper program) which purchases or enters into a commitment to make Advances or
interests therein, or any of their respective Affiliates (each an "Affected
Person") determines that (i) the adoption of, or any change in or in the
interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order
after the date of this Agreement regarding capital adequacy, (ii) compliance
with any such law, treaty, rule or regulation or order or (iii) compliance with
any such guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Entity
(whether or not having the force of law) shall have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on such Affected Person's capital as consequence of its
obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Affected Person could
have achieved but for such adoption, change, compliance or interpretation, then,
upon demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the Program Agent and the
Investor Agent for such Affected Person's Group), the Borrower shall pay to the
Investor Agent for such Affected Person's Group for the account of

                                       42
<PAGE>

such Affected Person (as a third-party beneficiary), from time to time as
specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate
such Affected Person for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts
setting forth in reasonable detail the reason for charging such additional
amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Program Agent and the Investor Agent
for such Affected Person's Group by such Affected Person shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. For avoidance of doubt, if the
issuance of any change in accounting standards or the issuance of any other
pronouncement, release or interpretation causes or requires the consolidation of
all or a portion of the assets and liabilities of any Investor or the Borrower
with the assets and liabilities of any Affected Person, such event shall
constitute a circumstance in which such Affected Person may base a claim for
reimbursement under this Section.

            (b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other
than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements
referred to in Section 2.09) in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation or (ii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central
bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law),
shall have the effect of increasing the cost to any Investor or Bank of agreeing
to make or making or maintaining any Advance in respect of which Yield is
computed by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, then, upon demand by such Investor
or Bank (with a copy to the Program Agent and the Investor Agent for such
Investor or such Bank), the Borrower shall pay to such Investor Agent, for the
account of such Investor or Bank (as a third-party beneficiary), from time to
time as specified by such Investor or Bank, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Investor or Bank for such increased costs. A certificate as to
such amounts setting forth in reasonable detail the reason for charging such
additional amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Program Agent and the
Investor Agent for such Affected Person's Group by such Investor or Bank shall
be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

            (c) If any Affected Person shall incur any loss, cost or expense as
a result of the failure of any Advance to be made on the date specified in the
applicable Funds Transfer Letter for any reason (other than the failure of such
Affected Person to fund any such Advance), the Borrower shall, upon demand by
such Affected Person or the related Investor Agent, immediately pay such
Affected Person or such Investor Agent the amount of such losses, costs and
expenses, without duplication of amounts otherwise payable hereunder. Upon the
request of Borrower, such Affected Party or Investor Agent shall submit to the
Borrower a certificate as to such amounts showing the basis for calculation of
such amounts, which certificate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
conclusive and binding for all purposes.

      SECTION 2.09. Additional Yield on Advances Bearing a Eurodollar Rate. The
Borrower shall pay to any Investor or Bank, so long as such Investor or Bank
shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional Yield on the
unpaid Principal of Advances of such Investor or Bank during each Fixed Period
Principal of Advances in respect of which Yield is computed by reference to the
Eurodollar Rate, for such Fixed Period, at a rate per annum equal at all times
during such Fixed Period to the remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the
Eurodollar Rate for such Fixed Period from (b) the rate obtained by dividing
such Eurodollar Rate referred to in clause (a) above by that percentage equal to
100% minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Investor or Bank for
such

                                       43
<PAGE>

Fixed Period, payable on each date on which Yield is payable on such Advances.
Such additional Yield shall be determined by such Investor or Bank and notice
thereof given to the Borrower through the Investor Agent for such Investor or
Bank (with a copy to the Program Agent) within 30 days after any Yield payment
is made with respect to which such additional Yield is requested. A certificate
as to such additional Yield setting forth the calculation of such additional
Yield submitted to the Borrower and the Program Agent by such Investor or Bank
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

      SECTION 2.10. Taxes.

            (a) Any and all payments and deposits required to be made hereunder
or under any other Transaction Document by the Servicer or the Borrower shall be
made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding (i) net income taxes that are imposed by the
United States and franchise taxes, (ii) net income taxes or franchise taxes that
are imposed on an Affected Person by a state or foreign jurisdiction (or any
political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Affected Person is
organized or in which such Affected Person is conducting business through an
office or agency located in such jurisdiction and (iii) in the case of each
Investor and Bank, taxes measured by such Investor's or Bank's net income or net
profit and franchise taxes imposed on it as a result of a present or former
connection between such Investor or such Bank and the jurisdiction of the
Governmental Entity imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein
(all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings
and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrower or
the Servicer shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable hereunder to any Affected Person, (i) the Borrower shall make an
additional payment to such Affected Person, in an amount sufficient so that,
after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 2.10), such Affected Person receives
an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been
made, (ii) the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall pay
the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority
in accordance with applicable law.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or other documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges
or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
(hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

            (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Affected Person for the full
amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
2.10) paid by such Affected Person and any liability (including penalties,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not
such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under this Section 2.10(c) to
any Affected Person in respect of penalties, interest and other similar
liabilities attributable to such indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes if such
penalties, interest or other similar liabilities are caused by or result from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Affected Person, as
determined by a court of

                                       44
<PAGE>

competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. This
indemnification shall be made within thirty days from the date the Affected
Person makes written demand therefor (and a copy of such demand shall be
delivered to the Program Agent and the Investor Agent for such Affected Person's
Group). A certificate as to the amount of such indemnification submitted to the
Borrower, the Program Agent and the Investor Agent for such Affected Person's
Group by such Affected Person, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis
for and the calculation thereof, shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes absent manifest error.

            The relevant Affected Person shall promptly notify the Borrower upon
receipt by such Affected Person of notice of any claim, assessment or dispute
relating to any tax proceeding for which the Borrower has liability pursuant to
this clause (c) and shall promptly forward to the Borrower any communications
received from or sent to any tax authority in connection with any such tax
proceeding; provided, however, that a failure by such Affected Person to give
such notice or take any other action will not affect its rights to
indemnification pursuant to this clause (c) except to the extent the Borrower is
prejudiced as a consequence of such failure.

            The Borrower shall have the sole right to control, contest, resolve
and defend, any tax proceeding to the extent such proceeding pertains to a Tax
or Other Tax that the Borrower has paid pursuant to this clause (c); provided,
however, that (i) the Borrower shall provide the relevant Affected Person with a
timely and reasonably detailed account of each stage of any such tax proceeding,
(ii) the Borrower shall consult with such Affected Person before taking any
significant action in connection with any such tax proceeding, (iii) the
Borrower shall consult with such Affected Person and offer such Affected Person
an opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or
furnished in connection with any such tax proceeding, and (iv) the Borrower
shall not settle any such tax proceeding without the consent of such Affected
Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
The Borrower shall bear any expenses incurred by it in connection with any tax
proceeding to which this clause (c) applies.

            (d) Each Affected Person which is organized outside the United
States and which is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding
tax under the laws of the United States as in effect on the date hereof (or, in
the case of any Person which becomes an Affected Person after the date hereof,
on the date on which it so becomes an Affected Person with respect to any
payments under this Agreement) shall, on or prior to the date hereof (or, in the
case of any Person who becomes an Affected Person after the date hereof, on or
prior to the date on which it so becomes an Affected Person), deliver to the
Borrower such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or Treasury Regulations issued
pursuant thereto, including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI
and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1441-1(a) or Section 1.1441-6(c) or any subsequent version
thereof, properly completed and duly executed by such Affected Person as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. On or
before the date that the most recent form, certificate or document previously
provided expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or document
previously provided, each such Affected Person shall deliver to the Borrower any
new certificates, documents or other evidence as described in the preceding
sentence as will permit

                                       45
<PAGE>

payments under this Agreement to be made without withholding or at a reduced
rate (but only so long as such Affected Person is legally able to do so).

            (e) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amounts to any
Affected Person in respect of Taxes and Other Taxes pursuant to clauses (a), (b)
and (c) above if the obligation to pay such amounts is attributable to the
failure by such Affected Person to comply with the provisions of clause (d)
above; provided, however, that should an Affected Person become subject to Taxes
because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall
take such steps as such Affected Person shall reasonably request to assist such
Affected Person to recover such Taxes.

            (f) If any Affected Person determines in its sole discretion that it
has actually received any refund of tax in connection with any deduction or
withholding or payment of any additional amount by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.10 such Affected Person shall reimburse the Borrower in an amount
equal to such refund, after tax, and net of all expenses incurred by such Person
in connection with such refund. The Borrower shall return such amount to the
applicable Person in the event that such Person is required to repay such refund
of tax. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall interfere with the right of
each of the Affected Persons to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it
thinks fit, nor to disclose any information or any computations relating to its
tax affairs or to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from
other credits, relief, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

      SECTION 2.11. Security Interest. To secure the performance by the Borrower
of all the terms, covenants and agreements on the part of the Borrower (whether
as Borrower or otherwise) to be performed under this Agreement, the Transaction
Documents or any other document delivered in connection with this Agreement in
accordance with the terms thereof, including the punctual payment when due of
all obligations of the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, whether for Principal,
Yield, Fees (including, without limitation, interest and principal on any Cash
Secured Advances), indemnification payments, expenses or otherwise (all of the
foregoing, collectively, the "Obligations"), the Borrower hereby grants to the
Program Agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Investors, the
Banks and the Investor Agents, a security interest in, all of the Borrower's
right, title and interest in and to the following (collectively, the
"Collateral") (a) the Purchase Agreements and the Parent Undertakings,
including, without limitation, (i) all rights of the Borrower to receive monies
due or to become due under or pursuant to the Purchase Agreements or the Parent
Undertakings, (ii) all security interests and property subject thereto from time
to time purporting to secure payment of monies due or to become due under or
pursuant to the Purchase Agreements or the Parent Undertakings, (iii) all rights
of the Borrower to receive proceeds of any insurance, indemnity, warranty or
guaranty with respect to the Purchase Agreements or the Parent Undertakings,
(iv) claims of the Borrower for damages arising out of or for breach of or
default under the Purchase Agreements or the Parent Undertakings, and (v) the
right of the Borrower to compel performance and otherwise exercise all remedies
thereunder, (b) all Transferred Assets, whether now owned and existing or
hereafter acquired or arising, and all other assets, including, without
limitation, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, payment intangibles and
general intangibles (as those terms are defined in the UCC), including undivided
interests in any of the foregoing, (c) the Lockboxes, Deposit Accounts,
Borrower's Account and any other deposit accounts, (d) all other property or
interests

                                       46
<PAGE>

in property, and (e) to the extent not included in the foregoing, all proceeds
of any and all of the foregoing.

      SECTION 2.12. Sharing of Payments. If any Investor or any Bank (for
purposes of this Section only, referred to as a "Recipient") shall obtain
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Principal of, or Yield on, any Advance
or portion thereof owned by it in excess of its ratable share of payments made
on account of the Principal of, or Yield on, all of the Advances held by the
Investors and the Banks (other than as a result of a payment of Liquidation Fee
or different methods for calculating Yield or payments made to less than all of
the Groups as a result of the occurrence of a Facility Termination Date under
clause (d) of the defined term Facility Termination Date for less than all of
the Groups), such Recipient shall forthwith purchase from the Investors or the
Banks which received less than their ratable share participations in the
Advances made by such Persons as shall be necessary to cause such Recipient to
share the excess payment ratably with each such other Person; provided, however,
that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from
such Recipient, such purchase from each such other Person shall be rescinded and
each such other Person shall repay to the Recipient the purchase price paid by
such Recipient for such participation to the extent of such recovery, together
with an amount equal to such other Person's ratable share (according to the
proportion of (a) the amount of such other Person's required payment to (b) the
total amount so recovered from the Recipient) of any interest or other amount
paid or payable by the Recipient in respect of the total amount so recovered.

      SECTION 2.13. Right of Setoff. Without in any way limiting the provisions
of Section 2.12, each Agent and each Investor and each Bank (including a Bank
which has made Cash Secured Advances) is hereby authorized (in addition to any
other rights it may have) at any time after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Termination to set-off, appropriate and apply
(without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby expressly
waived) any deposits and any other indebtedness held or owing by such Agent or
such Investor or such Bank to, or for the account of, the Borrower, the Servicer
or any Originator against any amount owing by the Borrower, the Servicer or such
Originator, respectively, to such Person or to such Agent on behalf of such
Person (even if contingent or unmatured).

      SECTION 2.14. Interest on Cash Secured Advances. The Borrower shall pay
interest to each Term-Out Bank on the unpaid principal amount of such Bank's
Cash Secured Advance from the date of such Cash Secured Advance until such
principal amount shall be repaid in full, at a rate per annum equal at all times
during each Fixed Period to the Assignee Rate for such Fixed Period, payable in
arrears on each Regular Payment Date for such Fixed Period and on the
Termination Date for all Rate Tranches related to such Cash Secured Advance;
provided, however, that recourse for such payment of such interest shall be
from, and shall be limited to, the interest and dividends in respect of the Cash

then be available to be withdrawn from the Collateral Advance Account, and such
Investor Agent shall distribute the funds so paid to such Investor Agent's
Account to the Banks in its Group, ratably according to the respective
outstanding principal amounts of their respective Cash Secured Advances, for
application to the payment of unpaid accrued interest on the Cash Secured

of the Receivables in accordance with Section 2.04.

      SECTION 2.16. Use of Proceeds; Security Interest in Collateral Advance
Account.

            (a) The Borrower hereby agrees that it shall use the proceeds of the

time credited to the Collateral Advance Account, all financial assets
(including, without limitation, Eligible Investments) from time to time acquired
with any such funds or otherwise credited to the Collateral Advance Account, all
interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other investment property from time

obligations relating to any and all of the Cash Collateral.

            (c) The grant of a security interest by the Borrower to the Program

secures the payment of the Borrower's obligation to repay the Cash Secured
Advances, and to pay interest thereon, pursuant to Sections 2.14 and 2.15,
respectively.

            (d) On the Termination Date for all Rate Tranches for any Group as
to which the Term Period has occurred, the Program Agent shall instruct the
Disbursement Agent to, and upon receiving such instruction the Disbursement
Agent shall, (i) convert the Cash Collateral that does not constitute cash into
cash proceeds and (ii) pay to each Investor Agent for such Group at such
Investor Agent's Account for the ratable account of the Term-Out Banks in its
Group, on behalf of the Borrower, such Group's ratable portion of the Cash
Collateral (it being understood that all the Cash Collateral shall then
constitute cash or cash proceeds), and such Investor Agent shall distribute the
funds so paid to its Investor Agent's Account to the Banks in its Group, ratably
according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of their respective
Cash Secured Advances, for application, first, to the repayment of the
outstanding principal

                                       48

      SECTION 4.01. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The Borrower
hereby represents and warrants as follows, which representations and warranties
shall be deemed repeated on each day on which an Advance is made or a Release is
made:

            (a) The Borrower is a corporation organized, duly incorporated,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
its organizational identification number is 3887926, and it is duly qualified to
do business, and is in good standing, in every jurisdiction where the nature of
its business requires it to be so qualified.

            (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the
Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the other documents to be
delivered by it hereunder, including the Borrower's use of the proceeds of
Advances, (i) are within the Borrower's corporate powers, (ii) have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action, (iii) do not contravene (A) the
Borrower's Charter Documents, (B) any law, rule or regulation applicable to the
Borrower, (C) any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Borrower
or its property or (D) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree

to herein and therein.

                                       51
<PAGE>

            (d) Each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable
against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability
Exceptions.

            (e) Since its date of formation, there has been no Material Adverse
Change with respect to Borrower.

            (f) (i) There is no pending or threatened action, investigation or
proceeding affecting the Borrower before any court, governmental agency or
arbitrator and (ii) except as set forth in Schedule 4.01(f) or as otherwise
disclosed by the Parent in its publicly available SEC filings, there is no
pending or threatened action, investigation or proceeding affecting the Parent
or any of its other Subsidiaries before any court, governmental agency or
arbitrator which if determined adversely to any of them, could reasonably be
expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

            (g) No proceeds of any Advances will be used to acquire any equity
security of a class which is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

            (h) The Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the Collateral
free and clear of any Adverse Claim. The Program Agent for the benefit of the
Investors and the Banks has a valid and perfected first priority security
interest in the Collateral. No effective financing statement or other instrument
similar in effect covering any Collateral is on file in any recording office,
except those filed in favor of the Program Agent relating to this Agreement and
those filed pursuant to the Purchase Agreements. Each Receivable characterized
in any Borrower Report or other written statement made by or on behalf of the
Borrower as an Eligible Receivable, or included in the Net Receivables Pool

or an Affiliate), and all written information, exhibits, financial statements,
documents, books, records and reports furnished or to be furnished at any time
by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the
Investors or the Banks in connection with and before or after the date of this
Agreement are or will be accurate in all material respects as of the date so
furnished (or, if applicable, as of a date certain specified in such report),
and no such document contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading.

            (j) The principal place of business and chief executive office of
the Borrower and the office where the Borrower keeps its books and records
concerning the Collateral are located at the address or addresses referred to in
Section 5.01(b).

            (k) The names and addresses of all the Deposit Banks, together with
the post office boxes and account numbers of the Lockboxes, Deposit Accounts,
Borrower's Account and

                                       52
<PAGE>

all other deposit accounts of Borrower are as specified in Schedule 4.01(k)
hereto, as such Schedule 4.01(k) may be updated from time to time pursuant to
Section 5.01(g). The Lockboxes and Deposit Accounts are the only post office
boxes and bank accounts into which Collections of Receivables are deposited or
remitted. The Borrower has delivered to the Program Agent (i) a fully executed
Deposit Account Agreement with respect to each Deposit Account and any
associated Lockboxes and (ii) a fully executed Account Control Agreement with
respect to Borrower's Account and each other deposit account of Borrower.

            (l) The Borrower has advised its independent certified public
accountants that the Program Agent and Investor Agents have been authorized to
review and discuss with such accountants, as they may reasonably request, any
and all financial statements and other information of any kind that such
accountants may have which relate to the Collateral, and the Borrower has
directed such accountants to comply with any reasonable request of the Program
Agent or any Investor Agent for such information.

            (m) The Borrower is not known by and does not use any tradename or
doing-business-as name.

            (n) The Borrower was incorporated on December 6, 2004, and the
Borrower did not engage in any business activities prior to the date of this
Agreement. The Borrower has no Subsidiaries. SPE I is the sole owner of the
Stock issued by the Borrower, all of which is validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire any
Stock in the Borrower.

            (o) The Borrower is Solvent.

            (p) With respect to each Transferred Asset the Borrower (i) shall
have received such Transferred Asset as a contribution to the capital of the
Borrower by SPE I, (ii) shall have purchased such Transferred Asset from SPE I
in exchange for payment (made by the Borrower to SPE I in accordance with the
provisions of the Secondary Purchase Agreement) of cash or (iii) shall have
received such Transferred Asset partially as a capital contribution and
partially for payment in cash, in each case in an amount which constitutes fair
consideration and reasonably equivalent value. Each such sale referred to in the
preceding sentence shall not have been made for or on account of an antecedent
debt owed by SPE I to the Borrower.

            (q) The Borrower has timely filed or caused to be filed all required
income tax and sales tax returns and reports and all other material tax returns
and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all
material taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment
received by the Borrower. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the
Borrower in respect of such taxes or charges imposed by a Governmental Entity
are, in the opinion of the Borrower, adequate for the payment thereof.

            (r) The Borrower is not and, after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, will not be, required to be registered as an "investment
company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                                       53
<PAGE>

            (s) Each Receivable (i) is of a nature that financing such
Receivable with the proceeds of notes would constitute a "current transaction"
within the meaning of Section 3(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and (ii) is an obligation representing part or all of the sales price of
merchandise, insurance or services within the meaning of Section 3(c)(5) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

      SECTION 4.02. Representations and Warranties of the Servicer. The Servicer
hereby represents and warrants as follows, which representations and warranties
shall be deemed repeated on each day during the Revolving Period:

            (a) The Servicer is a corporation duly incorporated, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and is
duly qualified to do business, and is in good standing, in every jurisdiction

encumbrance upon or with respect to any of its properties. This Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by the Servicer.

            (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice
to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for
the due execution, delivery and performance by the Servicer of this Agreement or
any other document to be delivered by it hereunder.

            (d) Each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer enforceable
against the Servicer in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability
Exceptions.

            (e) Since July 31, 2004, there has been no Material Adverse Change

Adverse Effect.

            (g) On each day during the Revolving Period (and after giving effect
to any Advance to be made on such day or the repayment of Facility Principal to
be made on such day), the Facility Principal (less the amount of Cure Funds then
in the Cure Account) is not greater

                                       54

notify) the Obligor on each Receivable (or the Obligors are otherwise
contractually required to) to make payments on such Receivable to either one of
the Lockboxes or one of the Deposit Accounts.

            (j) Each Borrower Report, Weekly Report, Daily Report and Payment

furnished at any time by or on behalf of the Servicer to the Program Agent, the
Investor Agents, the Investors or the Banks in connection with and before or

respects as of the date so furnished (or, if applicable, as of a date certain
specified in such report), and no such document contains or will contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

in transactions of this type.

right to receive income in respect thereof.

            (e) Extension or Amendment of Receivables. Except as provided in

            (f) Change in Business or Credit and Collection Policy. The Borrower
will not make any change (i) in the character of its business or (ii) in the
Credit and Collection Policy that would impair the collectibility of the

of such financial covenants so as to establish financial covenants that are (i)
mutually acceptable to Borrower and Program Agent and (ii) comparable to and
consistent with those customarily required by CNAI for similarly situated and
rated borrowers (the "Financial Covenants") for inclusion in this Section

earlier of the date on which such Financial Covenants are established and the
date that is forty-five days following the date of such notice shall be referred
to herein as the "Financial Covenant Effective Date"). If the Borrower and
Program Agent are unable to reach agreement as to the Financial Covenants on or
prior to the Financial Covenant Effective Date, then an Event of Termination
shall be deemed to have occurred under this Agreement. The parties hereto agree
that amendment of this Agreement for the purposes of adding such financial
covenants shall only require the written consent of Program Agent and Borrower.

Termination or Incipient Event of Termination shall have occurred and be
continuing, at such other locations as the Program Agent may specify.

      SECTION 5.02. Covenant of the Borrower and the Servicer. Until the latest
of the Facility Termination Date or the date on which no Obligations shall be
outstanding or the date all other amounts owed by the Borrower hereunder to the
Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents or the Program Agent are paid in full,
each of the Borrower and the Servicer will, at their respective expense, from
time to time during regular business hours as requested by the Program Agent or
any Investor Agent, permit the Program Agent, any Investor Agent or their
respective agents or representatives (including independent public accountants,
which may be the Borrower's or the Parent's independent public accountants), (a)
to conduct audits of the Collateral and the related books and records and
collections systems of the Borrower, the Servicer or any Originator, as the case
may be, (b) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from all books, records
and documents (including, without limitation, computer tapes and disks) in the
possession or under the control of the Borrower or the Servicer relating to
Collateral, and (iii) to visit the offices and properties of the Borrower or the
Servicer for the purpose of examining such materials described in clause (b)
above, and to discuss matters relating to the Collateral or the Borrower's, the
Servicer's or any Originator's performance under the Transaction Documents or
under the Contracts with any of the officers or employees of the Borrower or the
Servicer having knowledge of such matters. In addition, the Program Agent may
appoint independent public accountants or other Persons acceptable to the
Program Agent (which shall not be the Parent's or the Borrower's independent
public accountants who perform regular financial statement audits for the Parent
and its Subsidiaries), to prepare and deliver to the Program Agent and each
Investor Agent a written report with respect to the Transferred Assets and the
Credit and Collection Policy (including, in each case, the systems, procedures
and records relating thereto) on a scope and in a form reasonably requested by
the Program Agent and the Investor Agents, and the Borrower shall reimburse the
Program Agent for all reasonable costs and reasonable expense incurred in
connection therewith; provided, that so long as no Event of Termination Event
has occurred or is continuing, Borrower's reimbursement obligations hereunder
shall be limited to two such audits per calendar year (but without such
limitation for follow-up audits if an audit deficiency is described during any
such audit or follow-up audit).

                                   ARTICLE VI

                         ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION
                                 OF RECEIVABLES

      SECTION 6.01. Designation of Servicer.

                                       62
<PAGE>

            (a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables
shall be conducted by the Servicer so designated hereunder from time to time.
Until the Program Agent gives notice to the Borrower of the designation of a new
Servicer in accordance with the terms hereof, HLIOC is hereby designated as, and
hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to
the terms hereof. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of
a Servicer Default, the Program Agent may and, at the request of the Required
Investor Agents, the Program Agent shall designate as Servicer any Person
(including itself) to succeed the Parent or any successor Servicer, if such
Person shall consent and agree to the terms hereof. The Servicer may, with the
prior consent of the Program Agent and each Investor Agent, subcontract with any
other Person (except that in the case of an Originator no such consent is
required) for the servicing, administration or collection of the Receivables.
Any such subcontract shall not affect the Servicer's liability for performance
of its duties and obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, and shall
automatically terminate upon designation of a successor Servicer. The Investors,
Banks and Agents shall not be deemed parties to such subcontract and shall have
no liabilities, obligations or duties with respect to such subcontractor.

            (b) HLIOC in its capacity as the Servicer shall not resign from the
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon the reasonable
determination by the Servicer that the performance of its duties hereunder is no
longer permissible under applicable law and there is no reasonable action which
HLIOC could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible
under applicable law. In any case, HLIOC agrees that, upon its resignation or
replacement as Servicer pursuant hereto, it will cooperate with the Program
Agent and the successor Servicer in effecting the termination of its
responsibilities and rights as Servicer hereunder, including, without
limitation: (i) assisting the successor Servicer in enforcing all rights under
the Collateral, (ii) transferring, promptly upon receipt, to the successor
Servicer any Collections or other amounts related to the Receivables, (iii)
transferring to the successor Servicer all books and records held by or under
the control of HLIOC, (iv) permitting the successor Servicer to have reasonable
access to all tapes, discs, diskettes and related property containing
information concerning the Collateral, and (v) in the Program Agent's
discretion, either continuing to use at the direction of the successor Servicer,
or taking all actions reasonably necessary to obtain a sublicense for a
successor Servicer to use, all computer software and hardware that may
facilitate the Servicer's access to and use of such information. Upon the
resignation or replacement of HLIOC as Servicer, HLIOC shall no longer be
entitled to the Servicer Fee accruing from and after the effective date of such
resignation or replacement.

      SECTION 6.02. Duties of Servicer.

            (a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as
may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all
in accordance in all respects with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with
reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy. The Borrower, the Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the Banks and the
Investors hereby appoint the Servicer, from time to time designated pursuant to
Section 6.01, as agent for themselves, to enforce their respective rights and
interests in the Transferred Assets. In performing its duties as Servicer, the
Servicer shall exercise the same care and apply the same policies as it would
exercise and apply if it owned such Transferred Assets and shall act in the best
interests of the Borrower, the Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents and the
Program Agent.

                                       63
<PAGE>

            (b) The Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with
the procedures described in Section 2.03. The Servicer is hereby authorized and
empowered to instruct the Disbursement Agent to make withdrawals and payments
from the Cure Account and Disbursement Agent's Account, subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 6.08(a) and as otherwise set forth in this
Agreement.

            (c) If no Event of Termination or Incipient Event of Termination
shall have occurred and be continuing, HLIOC, while it is the Servicer, may, in
accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity or adjust
the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as it deems appropriate to maximize
Collections thereof, or otherwise amend or modify other terms of any Receivable,
provided that the classification of any such Receivable as a Delinquent
Receivable or Defaulted Receivable hereunder shall not be affected by any such
extension.

            (d) The Servicer shall hold in trust for the Borrower and each
Investor and Bank, in accordance with their respective interests, all documents,
instruments and records (including, without limitation, computer tapes or disks)
which evidence or relate to Transferred Assets. The Servicer shall mark each
Originator's master data processing records evidencing the Transferred Assets
with a legend, acceptable to the Program Agent, evidencing that such Transferred
Assets have been sold to the Borrower; such an acceptable legend would be "This
writing and the obligations evidenced hereby have been sold to HL Funding II,
Inc. and HL Funding II, Inc. has pledged its interest therein to Citicorp North
America, Inc. ("CNAI"), in its capacity as program agent, and any pledge,
assignment or other transfer hereof or of an interest herein would be a
violation of CNAI's rights."

            (e) The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt,
turn over to the Person entitled thereto any cash collections or other cash
proceeds received that are not Collections of the Receivables or proceeds of the
Collateral.

            (f) The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the
Program Agent or any Investor Agent, furnish to the Program Agent and the
Investor Agents (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts
set aside for the Investors, the Banks and the Investor Agents pursuant to
Section 2.03.

            (g) The Servicer shall prepare and provide to the Agents:

                  (i) on each Business Day during a Daily Reporting Period, by
no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), a Daily Report as of the prior
Business Day;

                  (ii) on the first Business Day of each calendar week during a
Weekly Reporting Period, by no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), a
Weekly Report as of the last day of the immediately preceding week;

                  (iii) no later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on each
Determination Date, a Borrower Report relating to the Receivables outstanding on
the last day of the immediately preceding Month;

                                       64
<PAGE>

                  (iv) on the third Business Day of each Month (or after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Termination, on each
Business Day as may be designated by the Program Agent or the Borrower), by no
later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), a Payment Direction as of the last
day of the immediately preceding Month (or after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Termination, with respect to such shorter period as
may be designated by the Program Agent or the Borrower); and

                  (v) any other reports reasonably requested by Program Agent
upon ten Business Days' prior written notice to the Servicer.

            The Servicer shall transmit Borrower Reports, the Weekly Reports,
the Daily Reports, and the Payment Directions, to the Agents concurrently by
facsimile and by electronic mail (each an "E-Mail Report"). Each E-Mail Report
shall be (A) formatted as the Program Agent may designate from time to time and
shall be digitally signed and (B) sent to the Agents at an electronic mail
address designated by each of them. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Servicer shall not be required to deliver any Borrower Report,
Weekly Report, Daily Report, or Payment Direction prior to the making of the
Initial Advance.

      SECTION 6.03. Certain Rights of the Agents.

            (a) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Termination:

                  (i) the Program Agent may and, at the direction of the

            (b) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of
an Incipient Event of Termination or Event of Termination:

                  (i) at the Program Agent's request and at the Borrower's
            expense, the Borrower and the Servicer shall (A) assemble all of the
            documents, instruments and other records (including, without
            limitation, computer tapes and disks) that evidence or relate to the
            Collateral , or that are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect
            the Receivables, and shall make the same available to the Program
            Agent

                                       65
<PAGE>

            at a place selected by the Program Agent or its designee, and (B)
            segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from
            time to time constituting Collections of Receivables in a manner
            acceptable to the Program Agent and, promptly upon receipt, remit
            all such cash, checks and instruments, duly indorsed or with duly
            executed instruments of transfer, to the Program Agent or its
            designee; and

                  (ii) the Borrower authorizes the Program Agent to take any and
            all steps in the Borrower's name and on behalf of the Borrower
            (other than as set forth in Section 6.03(a)) that are necessary or
            desirable, in the determination of the Program Agent, to collect
            amounts due under the Receivables, including, without limitation,
            endorsing the Borrower's name on checks and other instruments
            representing Collections of Receivables and enforcing the Borrower's
            rights under the other Collateral.

      SECTION 6.04. Rights and Remedies.

            (a) If the Servicer fails to perform any of its obligations under
this Agreement, the Program Agent may (but shall not be required to) itself
perform, or cause performance of, such obligation; and the Program Agent's costs
and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Servicer.

            (b) The Borrower shall perform its obligations under the Contracts
related to the Receivables and the exercise by the Program Agent on behalf of
the Investors, the Banks and the Investor Agents of their rights under this
Agreement shall not release the Originators, the Servicer or the Borrower from
any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or related
Contracts. Neither the Program Agent, the Investors, the Investor Agents nor the
Banks shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or
related Contracts, nor shall any of them or the Borrower be obligated to perform
the obligations of the Originators thereunder.

            (c) In the event of any conflict between the provisions of Article
VI of this Agreement and Article VI of any Purchase Agreement, the provisions of
Article VI of this Agreement shall control.

      SECTION 6.05. Further Assurances. The Borrower agrees from time to time,
at its expense, to promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and
documents, and to take all further actions, that may be reasonably necessary or
desirable, or that the Program Agent or any Investor Agent may reasonably
request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interest
granted hereunder, or to enable the Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents or
the Program Agent to exercise and enforce their respective rights and remedies
hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Borrower and each Originator hereby authorizes the filing of any
financing statements or continuation statements, and amendments to financing
statements, in any jurisdictions as any Agent may reasonably determine are
necessary to perfect the security interest granted to the Program Agent pursuant
to Section 2.11 hereof or the interests assigned pursuant to the Purchase
Agreements. Such financing statements filed against the Borrower may describe
the Collateral in the same manner

                                       66
<PAGE>

specified in Section 2.11 hereof or in any other manner as the Program Agent may
reasonably determine is necessary to ensure the perfection of such security
interest, including, without limitation, describing such property as all assets
or all personal property of the Borrower whether now owned or hereafter
acquired.

      SECTION 6.06. Covenants of the Servicer. Until the later of the Facility
Termination Date and the date on which all Obligations shall be paid in full,
unless the Program Agent shall otherwise consent, the Servicer:

            (a) Extension or Amendment of Receivables. Except as otherwise
permitted in Section 6.02(c), will not extend, amend, waive or otherwise modify,
the terms of any Receivable.

            (b) Change in Business or Credit and Collection Policy. Will not
make any change in the character of its business or make any change in the
Credit and Collection Policy that would impair the collectibility of the
Receivables. In the event that the Servicer or any Originator makes any change
to the Credit and Collection Policy, it shall, contemporaneously with such
change, provide the Program Agent and each Investor Agent with an updated Credit
and Collection Policy and a summary of all changes.

            (c) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Will not add or
terminate any bank, post office box or bank account as a Deposit Bank, Lockbox
or Deposit Account from those listed in Schedule 4.01(k) to this Agreement, or
make any change in its instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to
the Borrower or payments to be made to any such box or account, unless the
Investor Agents and the Program Agent shall have received notice of such
addition, termination or change (including an updated Schedule 4.01(k)) and a
fully executed Deposit Account Agreement with each new Deposit Bank or Account
Bank or with respect to each new such box or account.

            (d) Deposits to Lockboxes and Deposit Accounts. Will (or will cause
the Borrower or the Originators to) (i) instruct all Obligors to remit all their
payments in respect of Receivables to Deposit Accounts or Lockboxes associated
therewith, and (ii) use ongoing commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
compliance with such instructions from those Obligors who have failed to so
comply. If the Servicer shall receive any Collections directly, it shall
immediately (and in any event within one Business Day) deposit the same to a
Deposit Account. The Servicer will not deposit or otherwise credit, or cause or
permit to be so deposited or credited, to any Lockbox or Deposit Account cash
proceeds other than Collections of Receivables.

            (e) Maintenance of Records. Will maintain and implement
administrative and operating procedures (including, without limitation, an
ability to recreate records evidencing Receivables and related Contracts in the
event of the destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and maintain all
documents, books, records and other information reasonably necessary or
advisable for the collection of all Receivables (including, without limitation,
records adequate to permit the daily identification of each Receivable and all
Collections of and adjustments to each existing Receivable).

                                       67

      SECTION 6.07. Indemnities by the Servicer. Without limiting any other
rights that the Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the Investors, the Banks,
the Disbursement Agent or any of their respective Affiliates or members or any
of their respective officers, directors, employees or advisors (each, an
"Indemnified Party") may have hereunder or under applicable law (including,
without limitation, the right to recover damages for breach of contract), and in
consideration of its appointment as Servicer, the Servicer hereby agrees to
indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all claims, losses,
liabilities, damages and related costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) (all of the foregoing being collectively
referred to as "Indemnified Amounts") arising out of or resulting from any of
the following (excluding, however, all claims, losses, liabilities, damages and
related costs and expenses arising (1) solely from a breach of such Indemnified
Party's obligations hereunder, as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (2) from recourse for Receivables which
are not collected, not paid or uncollectible on account of the insolvency,
bankruptcy or financial inability to pay of the applicable Obligor):

                  (i) any representation made or deemed made by the Servicer
pursuant to Section 4.02(g) hereof which shall have been incorrect in any
respect when made or deemed made or any other representation or warranty or
statement made or deemed made by the Servicer under or in connection with this
Agreement which shall have been false or incorrect in any respect when made or
deemed made;

                  (ii) the failure by the Servicer to comply with any applicable
law, rule or regulation with respect to any Transferred Asset; or the failure of
any Transferred Asset to conform to any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

                  (iii) any failure of the Servicer to perform its duties or
obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise
comply with any term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement or any
Transaction Document to which it is a party;

                  (iv) the commingling of Collections of Receivables (or any
other Related Security) at any time by the Servicer with other funds;

                  (v) any Servicer Fees or other costs and expenses payable to
any replacement Servicer, to the extent in excess of the Servicer Fees payable
to the Servicer hereunder;

                  (vi) any act or omission by the Servicer which reduces or
impairs the rights of the Program Agent, any Investor Agent, any Investor or any
Bank with respect to any Collateral;

                  (vii) any claim brought by any Person other than an
Indemnified Party arising from any activity by the Servicer or its Affiliates in
servicing, administering or collecting any Transferred Assets; or

                  (viii) any claim, loss or liability incurred by the
Disbursement Agent or its Affiliates arising out of the administration of the
Disbursement Agent's duties hereunder or otherwise incurred in connection with
the transactions contemplated herein or under any of the

                                       68
<PAGE>

other Transaction Documents; provided, that the Servicer shall be obligated with
respect to a claim, loss or liability referred to in this clause (viii) only to
the extent payment with respect thereto is not made from Collections or by the
Borrower and only to the extent that such claim, loss or liability results from
action taken by the Disbursement Agent upon reliance of any written information
provided by the Servicer to the Disbursement Agent.

Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 6.07 shall
be paid by the Servicer to the related Indemnified Party within five (5)
Business Days following demand therefor accompanied by reasonable supporting
documentation with respect to such amounts. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, solely for purposes of this Section 6.07, any
representation, warranty or covenant qualified by materiality or the occurrence
of a Material Adverse Effect shall not be so qualified.

      SECTION 6.08. Establishment of Collateral Advance Account and Deposit
Accounts.

            (a) Collateral Advance Account.

                  (i) On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the Servicer,
for the benefit of the Banks, shall establish and maintain or cause to be
established and maintained in the name of the Program Agent with an Eligible
Institution (which shall initially be the Disbursement Agent), an account (such
account being the "Collateral Advance Account" and such institution holding such
account being the "Collateral Advance Account Bank"), bearing a designation
clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of
the Banks and entitled "Citicorp North America, Inc., as Program Agent --
Collateral Advance Account for the Hayes Lemmerz Receivables Financing
Agreement." The Collateral Advance Account shall be under the sole dominion and
control of the Program Agent for the benefit of the Banks which have made Cash
Secured Advances, and neither the Borrower, nor any Person claiming by, through
or under the Borrower, shall have any right, title or interest in, or any right
to withdraw any amount from, the Collateral Advance Account. Except as expressly
provided in this Agreement, the Disbursement Agent in its capacity as the
initial Collateral Advance Account Bank hereby agrees (and any successor
Collateral Advance Account Bank shall agree) that it shall have no right of
set-off or banker's lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, any
funds held in the Collateral Advance Account for any amount owed to it by the
Disbursement Agent, any Beneficiary, the Borrower, SPE I, Parent, any Originator
or any of their Affiliates. The tax identification number associated with the
Collateral Advance Account shall be that of the Borrower.

                  (ii) The Disbursement Agent hereby agrees that it will comply
with (A) all written instructions directing disposition of the funds in the
Collateral Advance Account, (B) all notifications and entitlement orders that
the Disbursement Agent receives directing it to transfer or redeem any financial
asset in the Collateral Advance Account, and (C) all other directions concerning
the Collateral Advance Account, including, without limitation, directions to
distribute to any Investor Agent at such Investor Agent's Account proceeds of
any such transfer or redemption or interest or dividends on property in the
Collateral Advance Account (any such instruction, notification or direction
referred to in clause (A), (B) or (C) above being a "Collateral Advance Account
Direction"), in each case of clauses (A), (B) and (C) above originated by the
Program Agent without further consent by the Borrower or any other Person.

                                       69
<PAGE>

Except as specified in Section 6.08(a)(iii), the Disbursement Agent will comply
with Collateral Advance Account Directions and other directions concerning the
Collateral Advance Account originated by, and only by, the Program Agent.

                  (iii) Funds on deposit in the Collateral Advance Account
shall, at the written direction of the Borrower, be invested by the Disbursement
Agent in Eligible Investments as instructed by the Borrower in writing (which
may be a standing instruction). All such Eligible Investments shall be held in
the Collateral Advance Account by the Disbursement Agent for the benefit of the
Program Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks which have made Cash Secured
Advances. Such funds shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature
so that funds will be available in amounts sufficient for the Disbursement Agent
to make each distribution as and when required under the terms of this
Agreement. All interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and
investment expenses) received on funds on deposit in the Collateral Advance
Account, to the extent such investment income is not needed to pay the relevant
Investor Agents for the ratable benefit of the Term-Out Banks under the terms of
this Agreement, shall be added to the Collateral Advance Account.

                  (iv) If, at any time, the institution with which the
Collateral Advance Account is maintained ceases to be an Eligible Institution,
(A) the Disbursement Agent, upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof, shall,
within five Business Days from obtaining such knowledge or, if earlier, from
notice to such effect by the Program Agent, establish a new Collateral Advance
Account meeting the conditions specified above with an Eligible Institution, and
transfer any cash and/or any financial assets held in the old Collateral Advance
Account to such new Collateral Advance Account, and (B) the Borrower and
Servicer shall execute and deliver, and cause such new Collateral Advance
Account Bank to deliver, an Account Control Agreement. From the date such new
Collateral Advance Account is established, it shall be the "Collateral Advance
Account" hereunder and for all purposes hereof.

            (b) Deposit Accounts. On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the
Servicer for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, shall establish and maintain or
cause to be established and maintained in the name of the Borrower (i) Lockboxes
to which Obligors will remit payments with respect to Receivables and (ii)
Deposit Accounts with an Eligible Institution. Obligors will be directed to
remit payments with respect to Receivables owing by them to a Lockbox or a
Deposit Account in accordance with the terms of Section 6.06(c). The Lockboxes
and Deposit Accounts shall be under the control of the Program Agent for the
benefit of the Beneficiaries, and on and after the Transfer Event Date, neither
the Borrower, the Servicer, the Parent nor any Person claiming by, through or
under the Borrower, the Servicer, or the Parent, shall have any right to
withdraw any amount from, any Lockbox or Deposit Account.

            (c) No Changes to Lockboxes or Deposit Accounts. The Servicer will
not (i) make any change in any Lockbox numbers, the name, address or ABA number
of any Deposit Bank or Account Bank, the account number of any Deposit Account,
the name, address or ABA number of any Collateral Advance Account Bank, or the
account number for any Collateral Advance Bank from that set forth in Schedule
4.01(k) hereto or (ii) amend any instruction to any Obligor or any instruction
to or agreement with any Deposit Bank or Account Bank with respect to any
Lockbox or Deposit Account (other than to (A) redirect payments of Obligors to a
different Lockbox or Deposit Account, (B) close unused Lockboxes and Deposit
Accounts and

                                       70
<PAGE>

(C) open new Lockboxes and Deposit Accounts if the Disbursement
Agent and the Program Agent shall have received executed copies of the Deposit
Account Agreements with each new Deposit Bank and an updated Schedule 4.01(k))
unless the Program Agent shall have given its prior consent to such change or
amendment and notified the other Investor Agents thereof.

      SECTION 6.09. Establishment of Disbursement Agent Accounts.

            (a) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, shall
establish and maintain in the name of the Disbursement Agent, with an Eligible
Institution (which shall initially be the Disbursement Agent) a segregated
non-interest bearing deposit account accessible only by the Disbursement Agent
(the "Disbursement Agent's Account"), which shall be identified as the
"Disbursement Agent's Account for the Hayes Lemmerz Receivables Financing
Agreement" and shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds
deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Beneficiaries. The
Disbursement Agent's Account initially shall be established at the Disbursement
Agent. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the Disbursement Agent
agrees that it shall have no right of set-off or banker's lien against and no
right to otherwise deduct from any funds held in the Disbursement Agent's
Account for any amount owed to it by any Beneficiary, the Borrower, SPE I or any
Originator. The tax identification number associated with the Disbursement
Agent's Account shall be that of the Borrower.

            (b) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, shall
establish and maintain in the name of the Disbursement Agent two segregated
sub-accounts of the Disbursement Agent's Account accessible only by the
Disbursement Agent which shall be identified as the "Cure Account for the Hayes
Lemmerz Receivables Financing Agreement" (the "Cure Account"), and the
"Yield/Fee Account for the Hayes Lemmerz Receivables Financing Agreement" (the
"Yield/Fee Account"), respectively, and each of which shall bear a designation
clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of
the Beneficiaries. The Cure Account and the Yield/Fee Account shall initially be
established with the Disbursement Agent and thereafter may only be established
or maintained at an Eligible Institution which also holds the Disbursement
Agent's Account. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the
Disbursement Agent agrees that it shall have no right of set-off or banker's
lien against and no right to otherwise deduct from any funds held in the Cure
Account or Yield/Fee Account for any amount owed to it by any Beneficiary, the
Borrower, SPE I or any Originator. The tax identification number associated with
the Cure Account and Yield/Fee Account shall be that of the Borrower.

            (c) At the written direction of the Servicer (which may be a
standing direction), funds on deposit in the Disbursement Agent's Account, the
Cure Account and the Yield/Fee Account (the "Disbursement Agent Accounts") shall
be invested by the Disbursement Agent in Eligible Investments selected by the
Servicer that will mature so that such funds will be available on or before the
close of business on the Business Day next preceding the following Regular
Payment Date or Distribution Date; provided, that any request by the Servicer to
invest funds on deposit in any Disbursement Agent Account shall certify that the
requested investment is an Eligible Investment; provided further, that if an
Event of Termination has occurred and is continuing, such investments may only
be made at the direction of the Program Agent and not at the direction of the
Servicer. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the Disbursement Agent
for the benefit of the Beneficiaries. On each Regular Payment Date or
Distribution Date,

                                       71
<PAGE>

as applicable, all interest and other investment earnings (net of losses and
investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Disbursement Agent Accounts
shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.04. Funds deposited in the
Disbursement Agent Accounts on a Business Day which immediately precedes a
Regular Payment Date or Distribution Date are not required to be invested
overnight.

            (d) The Disbursement Agent shall possess all right, title and
interest in and to all funds on deposit from time to time in, and all Eligible
Investments credited to, the Disbursement Agent Accounts and in all proceeds
thereof. The Disbursement Agent Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and
control of the Disbursement Agent for the benefit of the Beneficiaries. If, at
any time, any of the Disbursement Agent Accounts is held by an institution other
than an Eligible Institution, the Disbursement Agent (or the Servicer, at the
direction of the Disbursement Agent and on its behalf) shall within 5 Business
Days establish a new Disbursement Agent Account meeting the conditions specified
in clause (a) or (b) above, as applicable, and shall transfer any cash and/or
any investments to such new Disbursement Agent Account. Neither the Borrower,
the Servicer nor any Person or entity claiming by, through or under the
Borrower, the Servicer or any such Person or entity shall have any right, title
or interest in, or any right to withdraw any amount from, any Disbursement Agent
Account, except as expressly provided herein. Schedule 6.09(d) identifies each
Disbursement Agent Account by setting forth the identification name of such
account, the account number of each such account, the account designation of
each such account and the name and location of the institution with which such
account has been established. If a substitute Disbursement Agent Account is
established pursuant to this Section 6.09, the party establishing such
substitute Disbursement Agent Account shall promptly provide to the Servicer or
the Disbursement Agent, as applicable, an amended Schedule 6.09(d), setting
forth the relevant information for such substitute Disbursement Agent Account.

            (e) The Disbursement Agent is hereby authorized, unless otherwise
directed by the Servicer, to effect transactions in Eligible Investments through
a capital markets Affiliate of the Disbursement Agent, provided, that any
transaction through such an Affiliate will be on market terms comparable to
those offered by such Affiliate to non-Affiliates.

failure, in the case of payments on account of Yield or Fees only, shall remain
unremedied for three Business Days or (iii) shall fail to deliver any Borrower

failure shall remain unremedied for

Days;

            (c) Any representation or warranty (unless such representation or
warranty relates solely to one or more specific Receivables incorrectly
characterized as Eligible Receivables and either (i) immediately following the
removal of such Receivables from the Net Receivables Pool Balance the Facility
Principal (less the amount of Cure Funds then in the Cure Account) is not
greater than the Borrowing Base or (ii) the Borrower shall have made any
required payment of Deemed Collections in accordance with Section 2.03(a) with
respect to such Receivables) made or deemed made by the Borrower, the Parent,

Document shall prove to have been incorrect or untrue in any material respect

term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document (other than as specified in clauses (a) through (c) above) on its part
to be performed or observed and any such failure shall remain unremedied for 30
days, provided, that failure of the Borrower to perform or observe any covenant

case of Parent, the Servicer or any Originator when the same becomes due and
payable (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration,
demand or otherwise), and such failure shall continue after the applicable grace
period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating to such Debt;
or any other event shall occur or condition shall exist under any agreement or
instrument relating to any such Debt and shall continue after the applicable
grace period, if any, specified in such agreement or instrument, if the effect

the maturity of such Debt; or any such Debt shall be declared to be due and
payable, or required to be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled required
prepayment), redeemed, purchased or defeased, or an offer to repay, redeem,

                                       73
<PAGE>

the Cash Collateral, as the case may be, or there shall exist any Adverse Claims
on the Collateral or the Cash Collateral;

            (g) The Borrower, the Parent, the Servicer, SPE I or any Originator
shall generally not pay its debts as such debts become due, or shall admit in
writing its inability to pay its debts generally, or shall make a general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; or any proceeding shall be instituted
by or against the Borrower, the Parent, the Servicer, SPE I or any Originator
seeking to adjudicate it bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding
up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition
of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or

then, and in any such event, any or all of the following actions may be taken by
notice to the Borrower: (x) the Program Agent may in its discretion, and shall,
at the direction of the Investor Agents, declare the Facility Termination Date
to have occurred (in which case the Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to
have occurred), (y) the Program Agent may in its discretion, and shall, at the
direction of any Investor Agent, declare the Commitment Termination Date to have
occurred (in which case the Commitment Termination Date shall be deemed to have
occurred), and (z) if such event is a Servicer Default, and without limiting any
other right under this Agreement to replace the Servicer, the Program Agent may
in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of any Investor Agent, designate
another Person to succeed HLIOC as the Servicer; provided, that, automatically
upon the occurrence of any event (without any requirement for the passage of
time or the giving of notice) described in Section 7.01(g), the Facility
Termination Date and the Commitment Termination Date shall occur, HLIOC (if it
is then serving as the Servicer) shall cease to be the Servicer, and the Program
Agent or its designee shall become the Servicer. Upon any such declaration or
designation or upon such automatic termination, the Investors, the Investor
Agents, the Banks and the Program Agent shall have, in addition to the rights
and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and
remedies provided after default under the UCC and under other applicable law,
which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, if any Event of
Termination set forth in Section 7.01(c), (d), (j) or (k) (with respect to the
Originator Purchase Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing with
respect to any Originator (solely for the purposes of such determination, the
provisions of the Transaction Documents shall be construed as applying severally
to each Originator and not jointly), and if (1) such Originator is deemed a
"Defaulting Originator" in accordance with the Originator Purchase Agreement,
(2) the Program Agent shall have received written notice from such Originator of
its election to be treated as a "Defaulting Originator" hereunder within two
Business Days of the occurrence of such Event of Termination, (3) no other Event
of Termination shall have occurred and be continuing, and (4) the sum of (x) the
aggregate existing Defaulting Originator Percentages and (y) the Defaulting
Originator Percentage that would be applicable to such Originator if such
Originator were deemed a Defaulting Originator hereunder, would not exceed 15%,
then such Originator shall become a "Defaulting Originator" under the
Transaction Documents, and such Events of Termination as they relate to such
Defaulting Originator shall be deemed cured (and no longer applicable to such
Defaulting Originator) and the Facility Termination Date may no longer be
declared solely as a result thereof.

                                THE PROGRAM AGENT

      SECTION 8.01. Authorization and Action. Each Investor, Investor Agent and
each Bank hereby appoints and authorizes the Program Agent to take such action
as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Program Agent by the terms

set forth in the Transaction Documents, and no implied obligations or
liabilities shall be read into any Transaction Document, or otherwise exist,
against the Program Agent.

                                       76
<PAGE>

The Program Agent does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any
obligation to, or relationship of trust or agency with, the Borrower, SPE I, the
Parent, the Servicer or any Originator. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in no event shall the Program Agent
ever be required to take any action which exposes the Program Agent to personal
liability or which is contrary to any provision of any Transaction Document or
applicable law.

      SECTION 8.02. Program Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the Program Agent nor
any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Program Agent under or in
connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Program
Agent's servicing, administering or collecting Receivables as Servicer) or any
other Transaction Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Program Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any
Investor Agent, the Borrower, SPE I, the Parent, any Originator and the
Servicer), independent certified public accountants and other experts selected
by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in
good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or
experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Investor Agent, Investor
or Bank (whether written or oral) and shall not be responsible to any Investor
Agent, Investor or Bank for any statements, warranties or representations
(whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document on the part of

the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower, SPE I, the
Parent, any Originator or the Servicer; (d) shall not be responsible to any
Investor Agent, Investor or Bank for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including
notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which
may be by telecopier or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent
by the proper party or parties.

      SECTION 8.03. CNAI and Affiliates. The obligation of Citibank to make
Advances under this Agreement may be satisfied by CNAI or any of its Affiliates.
With respect to any Advance made by it, CNAI shall have the same rights and
powers under this Agreement as any Bank and may exercise the same as though it
were not the Program Agent. CNAI and any of its Affiliates may generally engage
in any kind of business with the Borrower, the Parent, any Originator, SPE I,
the Servicer or any Obligor, any of their respective Affiliates and any Person
who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower, the Parent, any
Originator, SPE I, the Servicer or any Obligor or any of their respective
Affiliates, all as if CNAI were not the Program Agent and without any duty to
account therefor to the Investor Agents, the Investors or the Banks.

      SECTION 8.04. Indemnification of Program Agent. Each Bank agrees to
indemnify the Program Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, the
Parent or any Originator), ratably according to the respective Percentage of
such Bank, from and against any and all

                                       77
<PAGE>

liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Program Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
or any action taken or omitted by the Program Agent under this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Program
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final,
nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

      SECTION 8.05. Delegation of Duties. The Program Agent may execute any of
its duties through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice
of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Program Agent
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

      SECTION 8.06. Action or Inaction by Program Agent. The Program Agent shall
in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action under any
Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of
the Investor Agents and assurance of its indemnification by the Banks, as it
deems appropriate. The Program Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document in accordance with a request or at the direction of the
Investor Agents and such request or direction and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Investors, Banks, the Program
Agent and the Investor Agents.

      SECTION 8.07. Notice of Events of Termination. The Program Agent shall not
be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Incipient Event
of Termination or of any Event of Termination unless the Program Agent has
received written notice from any Investor Agent, Investor, Bank, the Servicer,
any Originator, SPE I or the Borrower stating that an Incipient Event of
Termination or Event of Termination has occurred hereunder and describing such
Incipient Event of Termination or Event of Termination. If the Program Agent
receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to each Investor
Agent whereupon each Investor Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to its
respective Investors and Related Banks. The Program Agent shall take such action
concerning an Incipient Event of Termination or an Event of Termination as may
be directed by the Investor Agents (subject to the other provisions of this
Article VIII), but until the Program Agent receives such directions, the Program
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, as the Program Agent deems advisable and in the best
interests of the Investors and Banks.

      SECTION 8.08. Non-Reliance on Program Agent and Other Parties. Each
Investor Agent, Investor and Bank expressly acknowledges that neither the
Program Agent, any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective, directors,
officers, agents or employees has made any representations or warranties to it
and that no act by the Program Agent hereafter taken, including any review of
the affairs of the Borrower, the Servicer, SPE I, the Parent or any Originator,
shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Program
Agent. Each Investor and Bank represents and warrants to the Program Agent that,
independently and without reliance upon the Program Agent, any of its
Affiliates, any Investor Agent (except to the

                                       78
<PAGE>

extent otherwise agreed in writing between such Investor and its Investor Agent)
or any other Investor Bank and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own appraisal of
and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial
and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Parent and the
Originators, and the Advances and its own decision to enter into this Agreement
and to take, or omit, action under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document. Except for items expressly required to be delivered under this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document by the Program Agent to any Investor
Agent, Investor or Bank, the Program Agent shall not have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Investor Agent, Investor or Bank with any
information concerning the Borrower, the Servicer, SPE I, the Parent or any
Originator or any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of the
Program Agent or any of its directors, officers, agents, employees,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

      SECTION 8.09. Successor Program Agent. The Program Agent may, upon at
least thirty (30) days' notice to the Borrower and each Investor Agent, resign
as Program Agent. Such resignation shall not become effective until a successor
agent is appointed by the Investor Agents (with the approval of the Borrower,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required if
an Incipient Event of Termination or an Event of Termination has occurred and is
continuing) and has accepted such appointment. Upon such acceptance of its
appointment as Program Agent hereunder by a successor Program Agent, such
successor Program Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights
and duties of the retiring Program Agent, and the retiring Program Agent shall
be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents.
After any retiring Program Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article VIII, Section 6.07 and Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Program Agent.

      SECTION 8.10. Reports and Notices. The Program Agent hereby agrees to
provide each Investor Agent with copies of all material notices, reports and
other documents provided to the Program Agent by the Borrower or the Servicer
hereunder (other than any notices received by the Program Agent referred to in
the definition of Assignee Rate) which are not otherwise required to be provided
by the Borrower or the Servicer directly to the Investor Agents in accordance
with the terms hereof.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                              THE INVESTOR AGENTS

such Group to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such
powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated
to such Investor Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. No Investor Agent shall have any
duties other than those expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, and no
implied obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Transaction Document,
or otherwise exist, against any Investor Agent. No Investor Agent assumes, nor
shall it be deemed to have assumed, any obligation to, or relationship of trust
or agency with, the Borrower, the Parent or any Originator. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction

                                       79
<PAGE>

Document, in no event shall any Investor Agent ever be required to take any
action which exposes such Investor Agent to personal liability or which is
contrary to any provision of any Transaction Document or applicable law.

      SECTION 9.02. Investor Agent's Reliance, Etc. No Investor Agent nor any of
its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as an Investor Agent under or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (a) with the
consent or at the request or direction of the Investors and Banks in its Group
or (b) in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an Investor Agent:
(i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Program Agent, the
Borrower, the Servicer, SPE I, the Parent or any Originator), independent
certified public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes

the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document on the part of the Borrower, the Parent, any Originator or any other

Borrower, SPE I, the Parent, any Originator or the Servicer; (d) shall not be
responsible to any Investor or any Bank for the due execution, legality,
validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement,
any other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant hereto; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including
notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which
may be by telecopier or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent
by the proper party or parties.

      SECTION 9.03. Investor Agent and Affiliates. With respect to any Advances
made by it, each Investor Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as any Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an
Investor Agent. Each Investor Agent and any of its Affiliates may generally
engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, SPE I, the Parent, any
Originator, the Servicer or any Obligors, any of their respective Affiliates and
any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower, SPE I,
the Parent, any Originator, the Servicer or any Obligor or any of their
respective Affiliates, all as if such Investor Agent were not an Investor Agent
and without any duty to account therefor to any Investors or Banks.

      SECTION 9.04. Indemnification of Investor Agents. Each Bank in any Group
agrees to indemnify the Investor Agent for such Group (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower, the Parent or any Originator), ratably according to
the proportion of the Percentage of such Bank to the aggregate Percentages of
all Banks in such Group, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by, or asserted against such Investor Agent in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any action taken or
omitted by such Investor Agent under

                                       80
<PAGE>

this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, provided that no Bank shall be
liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting
from such Investor Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

      SECTION 9.05. Delegation of Duties. Each Investor Agent may execute any of
its duties through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice

attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

      SECTION 9.06. Action or Inaction by Investor Agent. Each Investor Agent
shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action
under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Investors and Banks in its Group and assurance of its
indemnification by the Banks in its Group, as it deems appropriate. Each
Investor Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining
from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in

Incipient Event of Termination or Event of Termination has occurred hereunder
and describing such Incipient Event of Termination or Event of Termination. If
an Investor Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof
to the Investors and Banks in its Group and to the Program Agent (but only if
such notice received by such Investor Agent was not sent by the Program Agent).
The Investor Agent shall take such action concerning an Incipient Event of
Termination or an Event of Termination as may be directed by the Investors and
Banks in its Group (subject to the other provisions of this Article IX), but
until such Investor Agent receives such directions, such Investor Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,

Agent, each Investor and Bank in the same Group expressly acknowledges that
neither the Investor Agent for its Group, any of its Affiliates nor any of such
Investor Agent's or Affiliate's directors, officers, agents, or employees has
made any representations or warranties to it that no act by such Investor Agent
hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, the Parent
or any Originator, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty
by such Investor Agent. Except to the extent otherwise agreed to in writing
between an Investor and its Investor Agent, each Investor and Bank in the same
Group represents and warrants to the Investor Agent for such Group,
independently and without reliance upon such Investor Agent, any of its
Affiliates, any other Investor Agent, the Program Agent or any other Investor or
Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
it has made and will continue to make

                                       81
<PAGE>

its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,
prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Borrower,
the Parent, the Originators and the Advances and its own decision to enter into
this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document. Except for items expressly required to be delivered under
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by an Investor Agent to any
Investor or Bank in its Group, no Investor Agent shall have any duty or

least thirty (30), days' notice to the Program Agent, the Borrower and the
Investors and Banks in its Group, resign as Investor Agent for its Group. Such

IX, Section 6.07 and Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Investor Agent.

writing by an Investor Agent or by any Investor or Bank in such Investor Agent's
Group, each party to this Agreement may assume that (a) such Investor Agent is
acting for the benefit and on behalf of each of the Investors and Banks in its
Group, as well as for the benefit of each assignee or other transferee from any
such Person, and (b) each action taken by such Investor Agent has been duly
authorized and approved by all necessary action on the part of the Investors and
Banks in its Group.

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

      SECTION 10.01. Indemnities by the Borrower. Without limiting any other
rights that any Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under applicable law
(including, without limitation, the right to recover damages for breach of
contract), the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from
and against any and all Indemnified Amounts arising out of or resulting from
this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the use of proceeds of the
Advances or the security interest granted hereunder or in respect of any
Collateral, excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent found in a
final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from (i) gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such
Indemnified Party, or (ii) solely from a breach of such Indemnified Party's
obligations hereunder, and (b) recourse (except as otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement) for Transferred Assets which are not collected, not
paid or uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or financial

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      SECTION 11.01. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower or HLIOC (as Servicer
or otherwise) therefrom shall be effective unless in a writing signed by each
Investor Agent and the Program Agent (and, in the case of any amendment, also
signed by the Borrower and HLIOC) and then such amendment, waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given; provided, however, that the signatures of the Borrower and
HLIOC shall not be required for the effectiveness of any amendment which
modifies the representations, warranties, covenants or responsibilities of the
Servicer at any time when the Servicer is not an Originator, the Parent or an
Affiliate of such Originator or the Parent or a successor Servicer is designated
by the Program Agent pursuant to Section 6.01; provided, further, however, that
no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by (a) the
Servicer in addition to the Program Agent and each Investor Agent, affect the
rights or duties of the Servicer under this Agreement or (b) the Disbursement
Agent in addition to the Program Agent and each Investor Agent, affect the
rights or duties of the Disbursement Agent under this Agreement. No failure on
the part of the Investors, the Banks, the Investor Agents, the Disbursement
Agent or the Program Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right.

      SECTION 11.02. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications
hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing and shall be
delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or
registered mail or sent by telecopy, to each party hereto, at its address set
forth on Schedule 1.01-4 hereto or at such other address or telecopy number as
shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties
hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto shall be
deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

      SECTION 11.03. Assignability.

            (a) This Agreement and the Investors' rights and obligations herein
(including ownership of each Advance made by it) shall be assignable in whole or
in part by the Investors and their successors and assigns (including, without
limitation, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement), with the Borrower's
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided, that the
Borrower's consent shall not be required if (i) the assignment shall be to an
Eligible Assignee or (ii) an Event of Termination has occurred and is
continuing. Each such assignor shall notify the Program Agent, its Investor
Agent and the Borrower of any such assignment and shall be accompanied by an
assignment pursuant to clause (b) below by one or more of such Investor's
Related Banks to one or more of such assignee Investor's Related Banks. Each
such assignor may, in connection with any such assignment, disclose to the
assignee or potential assignee any information relating to the Borrower, the
Servicer, SPE I, the Parent or any Originator, including the Collateral
furnished to such assignor by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Parent, SPE I,
Servicer, any Originator or by the Program Agent; provided that, prior to any
such disclosure, the assignee or potential assignee agrees to preserve the

                                       85
<PAGE>

confidentiality of any such information which is confidential in accordance with
the provisions of Section 11.06 hereof.

            (b) Each Bank may assign pursuant to Section 11.03(a) above to any
Eligible Assignee or to any other Bank all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Bank Commitment and any Advances made by it); provided, however,
that:

                  (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a
varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement,

                  (ii) the amount being assigned pursuant to each such
assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with
respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than the lesser of (x)
$10,000,000 and (y) all of the assigning Bank's Bank Commitment,

                  (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Program Agent (with a copy to the assignor's Investor Agent), for
its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance,
together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and

                  (iv) concurrently with such assignment, such assignor Bank
shall assign to such assignee Bank or other Eligible Assignee an equal
percentage of its rights and obligations under its Asset Purchase Agreement (or,
if such assignor Bank is Citibank, it shall arrange for such assignee Bank or
other Eligible Assignee to become a party to its Asset Purchase Agreement for a
maximum Principal amount equal to the assignee's Bank Commitment).

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the
effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee
thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder and (y) the
assigning Bank shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have
been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish such
rights and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an
assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall
cease to be a party hereto).

            (c) The Program Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in
Section 11.02 of this Agreement a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Banks and the Bank Commitment of, and aggregate outstanding
Principal of Advances or interests therein owned by, each Bank from time to time
(the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding
for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Originators, the
Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the Investors and the Banks may treat each
person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank under this Agreement for
all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection
by the Borrower or any Bank at any reasonable time

                                       86
<PAGE>

and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon its receipt of an
Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Bank and an Eligible
Assignee, the Program Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been
completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the
information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
thereof to the Borrower.

            (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.03, any
Bank may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion
of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to payment of Principal and
Yield) under this Agreement or under the Asset Purchase Agreement to secure
obligations of such Bank to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent
of the Borrower or the Program Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a
security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or
under the Asset Purchase Agreement, as the case may be, or substitute any such
pledgee or grantee for such Bank as a party hereto or to the Asset Purchase
Agreement, as the case may be.

            (e) Each Bank may sell participations, to one or more banks or other
entities which are Eligible Assignees, in or to all or a portion of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Bank Commitment and the Advances owned by it); provided, however,
that:

                  (i) such Bank's obligations under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, its Bank Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain
unchanged,

                  (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties to this Agreement for the performance of such obligations, and

                  (iii) concurrently with such participation, the selling Bank
shall sell to such bank or other entity a participation in an equal percentage
of its rights and obligations under its Asset Purchase Agreement.

The Agents, the other Banks and the Borrower shall retain the right to continue
to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights
and obligations under this Agreement. Such Bank may, in connection with any such
participation, disclose to participants and potential participants any
information relating to the Borrower, the Servicer, SPE I, the Parent or any
Originator, including the Collateral furnished to such Bank by or on behalf of
the Borrower, the Parent, any Originator or the Servicer; provided that, prior
to such disclosure, such participant or potential participant agrees to preserve
the confidentiality of any such information which is confidential in accordance
with the provisions of Section 11.06 hereof.

            (f) This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Program
Agent herein shall be assignable by the Program Agent and its successors and
assigns.

            (g) Neither the Borrower, the Parent, any Originator or the Servicer
may assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any other Transaction Document
or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of the
Program Agent and each Investor Agent.

            (h) CAFCO may, without the consent of the Borrower, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a "Participant") in
all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including the
outstanding Advances); provided that following the sale of a participation under
this Agreement (i) the obligations of CAFCO shall remain unchanged, (ii) CAFCO
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance
of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Servicer, the Agents, and the
Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with CAFCO in connection with
CAFCO's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which CAFCO sells such a participation shall provide that the
Participant shall not have any right to direct the enforcement of this Agreement
or the other Transaction Documents or to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that CAFCO will not,
without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or
waiver that (i) reduces the amount of Principal or Yield that is payable on
account of any Advance or delays any scheduled date for payment thereof or (ii)
reduces any fees payable by the Borrower to the Program Agent or CAFCO's
Investor Agent (to the extent relating to payments to the Participant) or delays
any scheduled date for payment of such fees. The Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that CAFCO's source of funds may derive in part from its Participants.
Accordingly, references in Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 6.07, 9.01 and 11.04 and
the other terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to determinations, reserve and capital adequacy requirements,
expenses, increased costs, reduced receipts and the like as they pertain to
CAFCO shall be deemed also to include those of its Participants; provided that
the Borrower shall not be required to pay higher costs, expenses and
indemnification amounts pursuant to this sentence than would be required to be
paid by the Borrower in the absence of the sale of any participation by CAFCO to
a Participant as contemplated by this Section 11.03(h). CAFCO, CAFCO's Investor
Agent or the Program Agent may, in connection with any such participation,
disclose to Participants and potential Participants any information relating to
the Borrower, the Servicer, SPE I, the Parent or the Originators, including the
Collateral, furnished to CAFCO, CAFCO's Investor Agent or the Program Agent by
or on behalf of the Borrower, Parent, Servicer or any Originator; provided that,
prior to any such disclosure, such Participant or potential Participant agrees
to preserve the confidentiality of any such information which is confidential in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11.06 hereof. Any interest sold by
CAFCO to a Bank or its designee under its Asset Purchase Agreement shall not be
considered a participation for the purpose of this Section 11.03(h) (and the
Bank or its designee shall not be considered a Participant as a result thereof).

      SECTION 11.04. Costs, Expenses and Taxes.

            (a) In addition to the rights of indemnification granted under
Section 10.01 hereof, the Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs and

contemplated in Section 5.02) of this Agreement, any Asset Purchase Agreement
and the other documents and agreements to be delivered hereunder, including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel

Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the Investors, the Banks and their
respective Affiliates, in connection with the enforcement of, and advising as to
rights and remedies under, this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and
the other documents and agreements to be delivered hereunder and thereunder.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay (i) to the extent not
included in the calculation of Yield, any and all commissions of placement
agents and dealers in respect of Promissory Notes or commercial paper notes
issued to fund the making or maintenance of any Advance, and (ii) any and all
costs and expenses of any issuing and paying agent or other Person responsible
for the administration of any Investor's Promissory Note or commercial paper
program, as the case may be, in connection with the preparation, completion,
issuance, delivery or payment of Promissory Notes or commercial paper notes
issued to fund the making or maintenance of any Advance.

            (c) The Borrower also shall pay on demand all other costs, expenses,
and taxes (excluding the cost of auditing any Investor's books by certified
public accountants, the cost of rating any Investor's commercial paper by
independent financial rating agencies and income taxes) incurred by any Investor
or any stockholder, partner or member of any Investor ("Other Costs"), including
the taxes (excluding income taxes) resulting from any Investor's operations, and
the reasonable fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for any
stockholder, partner or member of any Investor with respect to advising as to
rights and remedies under this Agreement, the enforcement of this Agreement or
advising as to matters relating to any Investor's operations ("Other Legal
Costs"); provided that in no event shall the Borrower be liable hereunder for
any Other Costs or any Other Legal Costs to the extent any such items are not
directly attributable to and directly resulting from the transactions described
in this Agreement.

            (d) Further, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all breakage and
other expenses of the Program Agent, the Investor Agents, the Investors and the
Banks (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements and the cost including accrued interest, of terminating or
transferring any agreements such as interest rate swaps, over-the-counter
forward agreements and future contracts engaged by the Investors, the Banks, the
Investor Agents or the Program Agent) in connection with any reduction of the
Principal relating to the funding or maintenance of any Advance (or portion
thereof).

      SECTION 11.05. No Proceedings; Waiver of Consequential Damages.

            (a) Each of the Borrower, the Program Agent, each Investor Agent,
the Servicer, each Investor, each Bank, the Disbursement Agent, each assignee of
an Advance or any interest therein and each entity which enters into a
commitment to make Advances or purchase interests therein hereby agrees that it
will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any
Investor any proceeding of the type referred to in Section 7.01(g) so long as
any commercial paper or other senior indebtedness issued by such Investor shall
be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the
last day on which any such commercial paper or other senior indebtedness shall
have been outstanding.

                                       89
<PAGE>

            (b) Each of the Servicer and the Borrower agree that no Indemnified
Party shall have any liability to them or any of their securityholders or
creditors in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or
the transactions contemplated thereby on any theory of liability for any
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without
limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). The Borrower
shall have no liability to indemnify any Indemnified Party for punitive damages
other than arising from a third party claim.

      SECTION 11.06. Confidentiality.

            (a) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of this Agreement in communications with third parties and
otherwise; provided that this Agreement may be disclosed (i) to third parties to
the extent such disclosure is made pursuant to a written agreement of
confidentiality in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Program
Agent, (ii) to the legal counsel and auditors of the Borrower, the Parent, the
Originators and the Servicer if they agree to hold it confidential and (iii) to

information which may be generally available to the public or becomes available
to the public through no fault of such party.

            (b) Each Investor, each Bank, and each Agent agrees to maintain the

accordance with the customary practices of said Investor for disclosure to
credit enhancers, dealers or investors, as the case may be, it being understood
that any such disclosure to dealers or investors will not identify the Borrower,
the Parent, any Originator or any of their Affiliates by name, (v) to the extent
required by applicable law or regulation or by any court, regulatory body or

Agent having a need to know the same, provided that the Disbursement Agent

Transaction Document, each Investor, each Bank, and each Agent hereby confirms
that the Borrower, the Originators and the Servicer (and each employee,
representative or other agent of such party) may disclose to any and all

specified in Section 11.02. Nothing in this Section 11.10 shall affect the right
of the Investors, any Bank or any Agent to serve legal process in any other
manner permitted by law.

            (c) To the extent that the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any
immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether
through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of
execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the
Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations
under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

      SECTION 11.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO
THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL
PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN
TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED
WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED PURSUANT HERETO.

      SECTION 11.12. Limited Recourse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the obligations of each Investor under this Agreement are
solely the obligations of such Investor and, in the case of obligations of such
Investor other than commercial paper, shall be payable at such time as funds are
received by or are available to such Investor in excess of funds necessary to
pay in full all outstanding commercial paper and, to the extent funds are not
available to pay such obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not
constitute a claim against such Investor but shall continue to accrue. Each
party hereto agrees that the payment of any claim (as defined in Section 101 of
Title 11, United States Code (Bankruptcy)) of any such party shall be
subordinated to the payment in full of all commercial paper. No recourse under
any obligation, covenant or agreement of any Investor contained in this
Agreement shall be had against any member, manager, officer, director, employee
or agent of any Investor, any Agent or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue
of such capacity) by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or
equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly
agreed and understood that this Agreement is solely an obligation of such
Investor individually, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to
or be incurred by any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member,
employee or agent of any Investor, any Agent or any of their Affiliates (solely
by virtue of such capacity) or any of them under or by reason of any of the
obligations, covenants or agreements of such Investor contained in this
Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for
breaches by such Investor of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements,
either at common law or at equity, or by statute, rule or regulation, of every
such member, manager, officer, director, employee or agent is hereby expressly
waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of this
Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Person from
any liability it might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions taken or
omissions made by them.

                             THE DISBURSEMENT AGENT

      SECTION 12.01. Duties of the Disbursement Agent.

            (a) The Disbursement Agent undertakes to perform such duties and
only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied
duties or covenants shall be read into this Agreement against the Disbursement
Agent. The Disbursement Agent shall have no duty to act as Servicer, to perform
Servicer functions or to retain a successor Servicer.

            (b) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Disbursement Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents from
liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent
failure to act or its own willful misconduct (to the extent determined by a
final, nonappealable judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction); provided,
however, that:

                  (i) the Disbursement Agent shall not be personally liable for
an error of judgment made in good faith by any Responsible Official of the
Disbursement Agent, unless it shall be determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that the Disbursement Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining
the pertinent facts;

                  (ii) the Disbursement Agent shall not be personally liable
with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith in accordance with the direction of the Investor Agents relating to the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to
the Disbursement Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or
exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Disbursement Agent under this
Agreement; and

                  (iii) the Disbursement Agent shall not be charged with
knowledge of any failure by the Servicer to comply with any obligations of the
Servicer contained herein or of any Event of Termination unless a Responsible
Official of the Disbursement Agent obtains actual knowledge of such failure or
such event or a Responsible Official of the Disbursement Agent receives written
notice of such failure or such event from the Servicer, any Investor Agent, the
Program Agent, any Investor or any Bank.

            (c) The Disbursement Agent shall not be required to expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any
of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if
there is reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or
indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in
any event require the Disbursement Agent to perform, or be responsible for the
manner of performance of, any obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement
except during such time, if any, as the Disbursement Agent shall be the
successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of,
the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

                                       93
<PAGE>

            (d) Except for actions expressly authorized by this Agreement, the
Disbursement Agent shall take no action reasonably likely to impair the
interests of the Investor Agents or the Program Agent (for the benefit of the
Investors and the Banks) in any Receivable now existing or hereafter created or
impair the value of any Receivable now existing or hereafter created.

            (e) The Disbursement Agent shall have no responsibility or liability
for the selection of or investment losses on, Eligible Investments. The
Disbursement Agent shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a
result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity or the
failure of the relevant party to provide timely written investment directions.
The Disbursement Agent shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any
amounts held hereunder in the absence of such written investment direction.

            (f) The Disbursement Agent shall, with respect to each Daily Report
(upon which the Disbursement Agent may conclusively rely and be fully protected
in acting or refraining from acting in such reliance), (A) compare the
Collections reported that day by the Servicer to the actual Collections
deposited to the Disbursement Agent's Account, (B) with respect to the
reconciliation of each of the Disbursement Agent Accounts, compare the beginning
balance as reported by the Servicer to the amount on deposit in the Disbursement
Accounts per the accounting records of the Disbursement Agent, and (C) perform
each of the account transfers set forth in the Daily Reports as directed by the
Servicer.

            (g) The Disbursement Agent shall follow the following procedures
with respect to each Payment Direction and Applicable Report (upon which the
Disbursement Agent may conclusively rely and be fully protected in acting or
refraining from acting in such reliance): with respect to the reconciliation of
each of the Disbursement Agent Accounts, compare the beginning and ending
balances to the amounts which were on deposit in the Disbursement Agent Accounts
per the accounting records of the Disbursement Agent as of the applicable date.

            (h) The permissive rights of the Disbursement Agent to do things
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty and the
Disbursement Agent shall not be answerable for other than its gross negligence
or willful default.

      SECTION 12.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Disbursement Agent.

            (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.01:

                  (i) the Disbursement Agent may conclusively rely on and shall
be fully protected in acting on, or in refraining from acting in accord with,
any resolution, officer's certificate, certificate of auditors or any other
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, consent, order,
appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it in good faith to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented to it pursuant to this Agreement by
the proper party or parties;

                  (ii) the Disbursement Agent may consult with counsel and, as a
condition to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action, may demand an

complete authorization and protection in

<PAGE>

respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith
and in accordance with such advice or opinion of counsel;

                  (iii) the Disbursement Agent shall be under no obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to
institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at
the request, order or direction of any of the Beneficiaries, unless such
Beneficiaries shall have offered to the Disbursement Agent security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be
incurred therein or thereby;

                  (iv) subject to Section 12.01(b), the Disbursement Agent shall
not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good
faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or
powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

                  (v) the Disbursement Agent shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts of matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
appraisal, approval, bond or other paper or document;

                  (vi) the Disbursement Agent may execute any of the trusts or
powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee, and the Disbursement
Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of,
or for the supervision of any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee
appointed with due care by it hereunder;

                  (vii) nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require
the Disbursement Agent to monitor the performance of the Servicer or act as a
guarantor of the Servicer's performance; and

                  (viii) whenever in the administration of the provisions of
this Agreement the Disbursement Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that
a matter be proved or established prior to the taking or suffering any action to
be taken hereunder, the Disbursement Agent shall be entitled to receive, and
such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of
the Disbursement Agent, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by,
an officer's certificate signed by an authorized officer of the appropriate
party delivering same and delivered to the Disbursement Agent, and such
certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the
Disbursement Agent, shall be a full warrant to the Disbursement Agent for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement
upon the faith thereof.

            (b) Money held by the Disbursement Agent need not be segregated from
other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Agreement
of any other Transaction Documents.

            (c) When the Disbursement Agent incurs expenses or renders services
in connection with a bankruptcy default, such expenses (including the fees and
expenses of its

                                       95
<PAGE>

counsel) and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute
expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law or law relating to creditors
rights generally.

            (d) The Disbursement Agent shall not be bound to ascertain or
inquire as to the performance or observance of any covenants, conditions or
agreements on the part of the Borrower or Servicer, except as otherwise set
forth herein, but the Disbursement Agent may require of the Borrower or the
Servicer full information and advice as to the performance of the covenants,
conditions and agreements contained herein and shall be entitled in connection
herewith to examine the books, records and premises of the Borrower and the
Servicer.

            (e) The Borrower, the Investors, the Banks, the Program Agent, the
Investor Agents, and the Servicer (for themselves and any person or entity
claiming through them) hereby release, waive, discharge, exculpate and covenant
not to sue the Disbursement Agent for any action taken or omitted under this
Agreement except to the extent caused by the Disbursement Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, nonappealable
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

            (f) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in
no event shall the Disbursement Agent be liable for special, indirect or
consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited
to lost profits), even if the Disbursement Agent has been advised of the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

            (g) Notwithstanding the title or designation of Disbursement Agent
herein or in any Transaction Document, it is expressly understood and agreed
that (i) the duties and obligations of the Disbursement Agent shall be
determined solely by the provisions of this Agreement and no implied covenants
and obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Disbursement
Agent, (ii) the Disbursement Agent's duties are only administrative in nature
and (iii) Disbursement Agent shall have no fiduciary duty, express or implied,
to any party to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any Person claiming

      SECTION 12.03. Disbursement Agent Not Liable for Recitals in Certificates
or any Collateral. The Disbursement Agent assumes no responsibility for the
correctness of the recitals contained herein. Except as set forth in Section
12.11, the Disbursement Agent makes no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Agreement or of any Receivable, related Contract or other
Collateral. The Disbursement Agent shall not be accountable for the use or
application of any, funds paid or advanced to the Borrower in respect of the
Receivables or deposited in or withdrawn in accordance with the provisions of
the Transaction Documents from the Collateral Advance Account, any Deposit
Account, the Borrower's Account, the Disbursement Agent's Account, the Cure
Account or any other account hereafter established in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement. The Disbursement Agent shall at no time have any
responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and
enforceability of any security interest in any Collateral or the perfection and
priority of such security interest or the maintenance of any such perfection and
priority.

      SECTION 12.04. Disbursement Agent May Own Advances. The Disbursement Agent
in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of an
Advance or an

                                       96
<PAGE>

interest therein and may otherwise deal, and transact banking business, with the
Servicer and the Borrower with the same rights as it would have if it were not
the Disbursement Agent.

      SECTION 12.05. Compensation; Disbursement Agent's Expenses.

            (a) The Disbursement Agent shall be entitled to receive a monthly
Disbursement Agent's fee (which fee, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
shall not be limited by any provision of law, such fee being the "Disbursement
Agent's Fee") in respect of each Month (or portion thereof) from the date hereof
until the termination of the Amortization Period, payable in arrears on each
Payment Date in an amount agreed upon in writing by the Disbursement Agent and
the Borrower. The Disbursement Agent's Fee shall be payable, first, from
Collections pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payment set forth
herein, second, to the extent not paid from Collections in any Month, by the
Borrower, and third, to the extent not paid from Collections or by the Borrower
in any Month, by the Servicer. When the Disbursement Agent incurs expenses or
renders services in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
similar proceedings affecting any Person, such reasonable expenses (including
the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for such
services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any
bankruptcy law or law relating to creditors rights generally.

            (b) Expenses. The Borrower will pay or reimburse the Disbursement
Agent upon its request on at least five Business Days' notice providing
reasonable detail, and if the Borrower shall fail to do so, the Servicer will so
pay or reimburse the Disbursement Agent (with a right to reimbursement from the
Borrower), and if both the Borrower and the Servicer shall fail to do so, the
Program Agent will have the right, but not the obligation, to so pay or
reimburse the Disbursement Agent (with a right to reimbursement from the
Borrower), for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or
made by the Disbursement Agent in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Agreement or in connection with any amendment hereto (including the reasonable
fees and reasonable expenses of its agents, any co-trustee and counsel and fees
incurred in connection with an Event of Termination) except any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may arise from its gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The Borrower's and Servicer's covenant provided in this Section
12.05 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation
or removal of the Disbursement Agent.

      SECTION 12.06. Eligibility Requirements for Disbursement Agent. The
Disbursement Agent hereunder shall at all times be an Eligible Institution. If
the Disbursement Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining
authority, then, for the purpose of this Section 12.06, the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In
case at any time the Disbursement Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 12.06, the Disbursement Agent shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 12.07.

      SECTION 12.07. Resignation or Removal of Disbursement Agent.

                                       97
<PAGE>

            (a) The Disbursement Agent may at any time resign and be discharged
from its obligations hereunder by giving 30 days' written notice thereof to the
Borrower, the Investor Agents, the Program Agent and the Servicer. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Program Agent shall promptly appoint a
successor acceptable to the Investor Agents by written instrument, in duplicate,
one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Disbursement
Agent and one copy to the successor. If no successor shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Disbursement Agent may petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor.

            (b) If at any time the Disbursement Agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.06 or shall fail to perform its
obligations under this Agreement and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Program Agent or if at any time the Disbursement Agent shall be
legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged as bankruptcy or insolvent, or if a
receiver of the Disbursement Agent or of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Disbursement Agent or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the Program Agent may remove the Disbursement Agent and
promptly appoint a successor acceptable to the Investor Agents by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
Disbursement Agent so removed and one copy to the successor; provided, that if
all other procedures fail and a successor has not accepted an appointment
pursuant to this Section 12.07(b) within 30 days after the Disbursement Agent
shall have received notice from the Program Agent of its intention to remove
such Disbursement Agent, the Disbursement Agent may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor.

            (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any resignation
or removal of the Disbursement Agent and appointment of a successor pursuant to
any of the provisions of this Section 12.07 shall not become effective until
acceptance of appointment by the successor as provided in Section 12.08.

      SECTION 12.08. Successor Disbursement Agent.

            (a) Any successor Disbursement Agent appointed as provided in
Section 12.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Borrower, the
Servicer, the Program Agent, the Investor Agents and its predecessor
Disbursement Agent an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Disbursement Agent shall
become effective and such successor, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as Disbursement Agent herein. The predecessor Disbursement Agent shall
deliver (with the expense therefor payable out of the Disbursement Agent's Fee,
and by the Borrower and the Servicer pursuant to Section 12.05(b)) to the
successor all documents or copies thereof and statements held by it hereunder,
and the Borrower, Servicer, other Agents and the predecessor Disbursement Agent
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may
reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the
successor all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

                                       98
<PAGE>

            (b) No successor shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 12.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 12.06.

      SECTION 12.09. Merger or Consolidation of Disbursement Agent. Any Person
into which the Disbursement Agent may be merged or converted or with which it
may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Disbursement Agent shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to the business of the Disbursement Agent, shall be the successor of
the Disbursement Agent hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 12.06.

      SECTION 12.10. Right of Program Agent to Direct Disbursement Agent. The
Program Agent shall have the right to direct in writing the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Disbursement
Agent under any Transaction Document or exercising any trust or power conferred
on the Disbursement Agent under any Transaction Document; provided, however,
that subject to Section 12.01, the Disbursement Agent shall have the right to
decline to follow any such direction if the Disbursement Agent after being
advised by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be
taken, or if the Disbursement Agent in good faith shall, by any Responsible
Official of the Disbursement Agent, determine that the proceedings so directed
would be illegal or involve it in personal liability.

      SECTION 12.11. Representations and Warranties of Disbursement Agent. The
Disbursement Agent represents and warrants that:

            (a) the Disbursement Agent is a New York banking association duly
organized, and validly existing under the laws of the State of New York, and has
the power to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is
presently engaged;

            (b) the Disbursement Agent has the full power, authority and right
to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, and has taken all necessary
action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this
Agreement; and

            (c) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Disbursement Agent and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Disbursement Agent enforceable against the Disbursement Agent in accordance with
its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
affecting creditors' rights generally and except as such enforceability may be
limited by general principles of equity, whether considered in a suit at law or
in equity).

      SECTION 12.12. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Disbursement Agent
will maintain at its expense in New York an office or agency where notices and
demands to or upon the Disbursement Agent in respect of this Agreement may be
served. The Disbursement Agent initially designates the office set forth on
Schedule 1.01-4 as such office. The Disbursement Agent will give prompt written
notice to the Borrower, the Servicer, the Investor Agents and the Program Agent
of any change in the location of such office.
