         SECTION 2.06. Declaration of Trust. The Owner Trustee hereby declares
that it will hold the Owner Trust Estate in trust upon and subject to the
conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit of the Owners, subject to
the obligations of the Trust under the Basic Documents. It is the intention of
the parties hereto that the Trust constitute a business trust under the Business
Trust Statute and that this Agreement constitute the governing instrument of
such business trust. It is the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for
income and franchise tax purposes, (i) so long as there is a sole Owner, the
Trust shall be treated as a security arrangement, with the assets of the Trust
being the Receivables and other assets held by the Trust, the owner of the
Receivables being the sole Owner and the Notes being non-recourse debt of the
sole Owner and (ii) if there is more than one Owner, the Trust shall be treated
as a partnership for income and franchise tax purposes, with the assets of the
partnership being the Receivables and other assets held by the Trust, the
partners of the partnership being the Owners (including the Company as assignee
of the Depositor pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in its capacity as
recipient of distributions from the Reserve Account) and the Notes being debt of
the partnership. The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by
appropriate tax authorities, the Trust will file or cause to be filed annual or
other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the
characterization of the Trust as provided in the preceding sentence for such tax
purposes. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall have all
rights, powers and duties set




                                       5
<PAGE>

forth herein and in the Business Trust Statute with respect to accomplishing the
purposes of the Trust.

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

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

         SECTION 2.09. Situs of Trust. The Trust will be located and
administered in the State of Delaware. All bank accounts maintained by the Owner
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall be located in the State of Delaware or the
State of New York. The Trust shall not have any employees in any state other
than Delaware; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit
the Owner Trustee from having employees within or without the State of Delaware.
Payments will be received by the Trust only in Delaware or New York, and
payments will be made by the Trust only from Delaware or New York. The only
office of the Trust will be at the Corporate Trust Office in Delaware.

         SECTION 2.10. Representations and Warranties of Depositor and Company.
(a) The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee that:

                  (i) The Depositor is duly organized and validly existing as a

         authorized such sale and assignment and deposit to the Trust by all
         necessary corporate action; and the execution, delivery and performance

                  (ii) The Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign
         limited liability company in good standing and has obtained all
         necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the

         require such qualifications.

                  (iii) The Company has the power and authority to execute and
         deliver this Agreement and to carry out its terms; the Company has full
         power and authority to purchase the Certificates; and the execution,
         delivery and performance of this Agreement has been duly authorized by
         the Company by all necessary action.

                  (iv) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict with,

                                       7
<PAGE>

(v)      There are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the Company's
         best knowledge, threatened before any court, regulatory body,
         administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having
         jurisdiction over the Company or its properties: (A) asserting the

                                  ARTICLE III

                     Certificates and Transfer of Interests

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

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

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

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

         SECTION 3.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates;
Limitations on Transfer. The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be
kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, a Certificate
Register in which, subject to such reasonable




                                       8
<PAGE>

regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the
registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
herein provided. JPMorgan Chase Bank shall be the initial Certificate Registrar.

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

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



                                       9
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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



                                       10
<PAGE>

Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicant access during
normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Holder, by
receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold
any of the Depositor, the Company, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner
Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address,
regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

         SECTION 3.08. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee shall
maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or offices
or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee
in respect of the Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Owner
Trustee initially designates JPMorgan Chase Bank, 55 Water Street, New York, New
York 10041 as its office for such purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt
written notice to the Company and to the Certificateholders of any change in the
location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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



                                       12
<PAGE>

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

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

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

                                   ARTICLE V

                   Application of Trust Funds; Certain Duties

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

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

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



                                       13
<PAGE>

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

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

                                   ARTICLE VI

                      Authority and Duties of Owner Trustee

         SECTION 6.01. General Authority. The Owner Trustee is authorized and
directed to execute and deliver the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be
a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or
contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and any
amendment or other agreement or instrument described in Section 3.11, in each
case, in such form as the Company shall approve, as evidenced



                                       14
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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



                                       15
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

                                  ARTICLE VII

                            Concerning Owner Trustee

         SECTION 7.01. Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. The Owner Trustee

Owner Trustee also agrees to disburse all moneys



                                       16

actually received by it constituting part of the Owner Trust Estate upon the
terms of the Basic Documents and this Agreement. The Owner Trustee shall not be
answerable or accountable hereunder or under any Basic Document under any
circumstances, except (i) for its own willful misconduct or negligence or (ii)
in the case of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in
Section 7.03 expressly made by the Owner Trustee. In particular, but not by way
of limitation (and subject to the exceptions set forth in the preceding
sentence):

         (a) The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment
made in good faith by the Owner Trustee;

         (b) The Owner Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the instructions of the
Administrator or any Owner;

         (c) No provision of this Agreement or any Basic Document shall require
the Owner Trustee to expend or risk funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its rights or powers hereunder or under
any Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk
or liability is not reasonably assured or provided to it;

         (d) Under no circumstances shall the Owner Trustee be liable for
indebtedness evidenced by or arising under any of the Basic Documents, including
the principal of and interest on the Notes or any amounts payable on the
Certificates;

         (e) The Owner Trustee shall not be responsible for or in respect of the
validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or for the due execution hereof by the

value or validity of any of the Owner Trust Estate, or for or in respect of the
validity or sufficiency of the Basic Documents, other than the certificate of
authentication on the Certificates, and the Owner Trustee shall in no event
assume or incur any liability, duty or obligation to any Noteholder or to any
Owner, other than as expressly provided for herein or expressly agreed to in the
Basic Documents;

         (f) The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the default or misconduct
of the Administrator, DCS, as Seller or Depositor, the Company, the Indenture
Trustee or the Servicer under any of the Basic Documents or otherwise, and the

of the Trust under this Agreement or the Basic Documents that are required to be
performed by the Administrator under the Administration Agreement, the Indenture
Trustee under the Indenture or the Servicer or DCS, as Depositor or as Seller,
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement; and

         (g) The Owner Trustee 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 under this Agreement or otherwise or in relation to this
Agreement or any Basic Document, at the request, order or direction of any of
the Owners, unless such Owners have offered to the Owner Trustee security or
indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that
may be incurred by the Owner Trustee therein or thereby. The right of the Owner
Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement or in any
Basic Document shall not be



                                       17
<PAGE>

construed as a duty, and the Owner Trustee shall not be answerable for other
than its negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act.

         SECTION 7.02. Furnishing of Documents. The Owner Trustee shall furnish
to the Owners, promptly upon receipt of a written request therefor, duplicates
or copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates, financial
statements and any other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee under the
Basic Documents.

         SECTION 7.03. Representations and Warranties. The Owner Trustee hereby
represents and warrants to the Company, for the benefit of the Owners, that:

         (a) It is a national banking association duly organized and validly
existing in good standing under the laws of the United States. It has all
requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations under this Agreement.

         (b) It has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the
execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be
executed and delivered by one of its officers who is duly authorized to execute
and deliver this Agreement on its behalf.

         (c) Neither the execution or the delivery by it of this Agreement, nor
the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance
by it with any of the terms or provisions hereof will contravene any federal or
Delaware law, governmental rule or regulation governing the banking or trust
powers of the Owner Trustee or any judgment or order binding on it, or
constitute any default under its charter documents or bylaws or any indenture,
mortgage, contract, agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which
any of its properties may be bound.

         SECTION 7.04. Reliance; Advice of Counsel. (a) The Owner Trustee shall
incur no liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, notice,
resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond, or
other document or paper believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be
signed by the proper party or parties. The Owner Trustee may accept a certified
copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any
corporate party as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly
adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any
fact or matter the method of determination of which is not specifically
prescribed herein, the Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a
certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer
or other authorized officers of the relevant party, as to such fact or matter,
and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Owner Trustee for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

         (b) In the exercise or administration of the trusts hereunder and in
the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement or the Basic
Documents, the Owner Trustee (i) may act directly or through its agents or
attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the Owner
Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents or
attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by the Owner
Trustee with reasonable care, and (ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and
other skilled Persons to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it.
The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for




                                       18
<PAGE>

anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the
written opinion or advice of any such counsel, accountants or other such Persons
and not contrary to this Agreement or any Basic Document.

         SECTION 7.05. Not Acting in Individual Capacity. Except as provided in
this Article VII, in accepting the trusts hereby created Chase Manhattan Bank
USA, National Association acts solely as Owner Trustee hereunder and not in its

thereof.

         SECTION 7.06. Owner Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Receivables.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature
and countersignature of the Owner Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as
the statements of the Depositor and the Company, and the Owner Trustee assumes
no responsibility for the correctness thereof. The Owner Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, of any
Basic Document or of the Certificates (other than the signature and
countersignature of the Owner Trustee on the Certificates) or the Notes, or of
any Receivable or related documents. The Owner Trustee shall at no time have any
responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and
enforceability of any Receivable, or the perfection and priority of any security
interest created by any Receivable in any Financed Vehicle or the maintenance of
any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of
the Owner Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed
to Certificateholders under this Agreement or the Noteholders under the
Indenture, including, without limitation: the existence, condition and ownership
of any Financed Vehicle; the existence and enforceability of any insurance
thereon; the existence and contents of any Receivable on any computer or other
record thereof; the validity of the assignment of any Receivable to the Trust or
of any intervening assignment; the completeness of any Receivable; the
performance or enforcement of any Receivable; the compliance by the Depositor,
the Company or the Servicer with any warranty or representation made under any
Basic Document or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty
or representation, or any action of the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee or
the Servicer or any subservicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

         SECTION 7.07. Owner Trustee May Own Certificates and Notes. The Owner
Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee
of Certificates or Notes and may deal with the Depositor, the Company, the
Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer in banking transactions
with the same rights as it would have if it were not Owner Trustee.

         SECTION 7.08. Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act Licenses.
The Owner Trustee, in its individual capacity, shall use its best efforts to
maintain, and the Owner Trustee, as Owner Trustee, shall cause the Trust to use
its best efforts to maintain, the effectiveness of all licenses required under
the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act in connection with this
Agreement and the Basic Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby until such time as the Trust shall terminate in accordance with the

                          Compensation of Owner Trustee

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

         SECTION 8.02. Indemnification. The Depositor shall be liable as primary
obligor for, and shall indemnify the Owner Trustee and its successors, assigns,
agents and servants (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and against,
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions
and suits, and any and all reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements
(including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever
(collectively, "Expenses") which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against the Owner Trustee or any Indemnified Party in any way relating
to or arising out of this Agreement, the Basic Documents, the Owner Trust
Estate, the administration of the Owner Trust Estate or the action or inaction
of the Owner Trustee hereunder, except only that the Depositor shall not be
liable for or required to indemnify an Indemnified Party from and against
Expenses arising or resulting from any of the matters described in the third
sentence of Section 7.01. The indemnities contained in this Section shall
survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee or the termination
of this Agreement. In any event of any claim, action or proceeding for which
indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section, the Owner Trustee's choice of
legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the Depositor, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         SECTION 8.03. Payments to Owner Trustee. Any amounts paid to the Owner

dissolve upon the final distribution by the Owner Trustee of all moneys or other
property or proceeds of the Owner Trust Estate in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Article V. The bankruptcy,
liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of any Owner shall not (x) operate
to dissolve or terminate this Agreement or the Trust or (y) entitle such Owner's
legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the
Trust or Owner Trust Estate or (z) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and
liabilities of the parties hereto.

         (b) Except as provided in Section 9.01(a), none of the Depositor, the
Company or any Owner shall be entitled to revoke, dissolve or terminate the

         (c) Notice of any dissolution of the Trust, specifying the Payment Date
upon which Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Paying
Agent for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given by
the Owner Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed within five Business
Days of receipt of a termination notice of such termination from the Servicer
given pursuant to Section 9.01(c) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, stating
(i) the Payment Date upon or with respect to which final payment of the
Certificates shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates
at the office of the Paying Agent therein designated, (ii) the amount of any
such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and
surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein
specified. The Owner Trustee shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar
(if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent at the time such notice
is given to Certificateholders. Upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be distributed to
Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to
Section 5.02.

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

         (d) Upon the winding up of the Trust in accordance with Section 3808 of
the Business Trust Statute, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificate of
Trust to be cancelled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary
of State in accordance with the provisions of Section 3810 of the Business Trust
Statute and the Trust and this Agreement (other than Article VIII) shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect.

                                   ARTICLE X

             Successor Owner Trustees and Additional Owner Trustees

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

reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of
the aforesaid supervising or examining




                                       21
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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




                                       22
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

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



                                       23
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  Miscellaneous

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

         This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
the Company and the Owner Trustee, with prior written notice to the Rating
Agencies, with the consent of the Holders (as defined in the Indenture) of Notes
evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the
consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of
the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates, for the purpose of




                                       24
<PAGE>

adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the
Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment
shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay
the timing of, collections of payments on Receivables or distributions that
shall be required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes or of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates
required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of
all the outstanding Notes and Certificates.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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




                                       25
<PAGE>

Administrator and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders, and nothing in this Agreement, whether express or
implied, shall be construed to give to any other Person any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim in the Owner Trust Estate or under or in respect of this
Agreement or any covenants, conditions or provisions contained herein.

         SECTION 11.04. Notices. (a) Unless otherwise expressly specified or
permitted by the terms hereof, all notices shall be in writing and shall be

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

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

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

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

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




                                       26

Company held by DCS, unless (i) after giving effect to such distribution or
repayment, the Company's liquid assets shall not be less than the amount of
actual damages claimed in such litigation or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition
shall have been satisfied with respect to any such distribution or repayment.
The Company will not at any time institute against the Trust any bankruptcy
proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law
in connection with any obligations relating to the Certificates, the Notes, this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

         SECTION 11.09. No Petition. The Owner Trustee, by entering into this
Agreement, each Certificateholder, by accepting a Certificate, and the Indenture
Trustee and each Noteholder, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, hereby
covenant and agree that they will not at any time institute against the Company
or the Trust, or join in any institution against the Company or the Trust of,
any bankruptcy proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy
or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Certificates,
the Notes, this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

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

         SECTION 11.11. Headings. The headings of the various Articles and
Sections herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not define or
limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

         SECTION 11.12. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS

         The Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of April
1, 2002, as amended and restated by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement
dated as of April 1, 2002 (as so amended and restated and further amended or
supplemented from time to time, the "Trust Agreement"), among the Depositor, the
Company and Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National Association, as owner trustee
(the "Owner Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which
is set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized
terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement or
the Sale and Servicing Agreement dated as of April 1, 2002 (as amended and
supplemented from time to time, the "Sale and Servicing Agreement"), between the
Trust and the Depositor, as seller and as servicer (in such capacity, the
"Servicer"), as applicable.

         This Certificate is one of the duly authorized class of certificates
(herein called the "Certificates"). Also issued under an Indenture dated as of
April 1, 2002 (the "Indenture"), between the Trust and Bank One, National
Association, as indenture trustee, are the four classes of Notes designated as
"Class A-1 _____% Asset Backed Notes," "Class A-2 ____% Asset Backed Notes,"
"Class A-3 ____% Asset Backed Notes" and "Class A-4 ______% Asset Backed Notes"
(collectively, the "Notes"). This Certificate is issued under and is subject to
the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust
Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof
assents and by which such Holder is bound. The property of the Trust consists of
a pool of retail installment sale contracts for new and used automobiles and
light duty trucks (collectively, the "Receivables"), all monies received on or
after April 10, 2002, security interests in the vehicles financed thereby,
certain bank accounts and the proceeds thereof, proceeds from claims on certain
insurance policies and certain other rights under the Trust Agreement and the
Sale and Servicing Agreement and all proceeds of the foregoing.

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

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

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

set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

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

         THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE

                            [REVERSE OF CERTIFICATE]


         The Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in,
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Company, the Owner Trustee or any affiliates of

except as expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust Agreement

during normal business hours at the principal office of the Depositor and at
such other places, if any, designated by the Depositor.

evidenced by the outstanding Certificates or a majority of the Outstanding

Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future
Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such
consent is made upon this Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the
Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

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

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

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

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