                  allocated to a new Fixed Period to commence on such date and
                  end on the next succeeding Distribution Date; and

         (iii)    upon the occurrence and during the continuance of the Series
                  2000-1 Rapid Amortization Period, any Fixed Period in respect
                  of which interest is computed by reference to the CP Rate may
                  be terminated at the election of the Lender by notice to the
                  Borrower and the Servicer, and upon such election the CP
                  Advances in respect of which interest was calculated by
                  reference to such terminated Fixed Period shall be converted
                  to ABR Advances until payment in full of the Series 2000-1
                  Note.

                                   ARTICLE II

                                    ADVANCES

         SECTION 2.1 The Advances. (a) Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions of this Agreement and the Series 2000-1 Supplement, the Lender
agrees, upon the Borrower's request, to make Advances from time to time on any
Business Day on or prior to June 30, 2000; provided, that the Lender will not
be required or permitted to make an Advance on any date if, after giving effect
to such Advance and the use of proceeds therefrom, (x) the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of all Advances would exceed the Maximum Invested
Amount, or (y) either (i) a Series 2000-1 Credit Support Deficiency exists or
would exist or (ii) a Series 2000-1 Asset Amount Deficiency exists or would
exist. All Advances shall be allocated pursuant to and in accordance with
Section 5.2 of the Series 2000-1 Supplement. On the terms and subject to the
conditions of this Agreement and the Series 2000-1 Supplement, the Borrower may
from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow Advances.

                  (b)(i) The Advances shall be evidenced by one or more loan
         accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of
         business. Absent manifest error, the loan accounts or records
         maintained by the Lender shall be conclusive of the amount of the
         Advances made by the Lender and the interest and payments thereon. The
         failure so to record any such information or any error in so recording
         any such information shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the
         actual obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Series
         2000-1 Note to pay any amount owing with respect to the Advances or
         limit or otherwise affect any other Obligations of the Borrower or any
         other Obligor.

                  (ii) The Series 2000-1 Note shall be payable to the order of
         the Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to the Maximum Invested
         Amount. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender to make
         (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to
         the Series 2000-1 Note (or on any continuation of such grid), which
         notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the
         outstanding principal of, and the interest rate, Fixed Period and
         Interest Period applicable to the Advances evidenced thereby. Such
         notations shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent
         manifest error; provided, however, that the failure to make any such
         notations or any error in making any such notations shall not limit or
         otherwise affect the actual obligations of the Borrower hereunder or
         under the Series 2000-1 Note to pay any amount owing with respect to
         the Advances or limit or otherwise affect any other Obligations of the
         Borrower or any other Obligor.

         SECTION 2.2 Borrowing Procedure. By delivering a Borrowing Request to
the Lender on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, the
Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request,


                                     -11-
<PAGE>   16


                  (a) on such Business Day (but in any event not more than five
         Business Days notice) in the case of ABR Advances,

                  (b) on not less than three (but in any event not more than
         five) Business Days notice in the case of Eurodollar Advances, or

                  (c) on not less than two (but in any event not more than
         five) Business Days notice in the case of CP Advances,

that a Borrowing be made in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral
multiple of $100,000 or, in either case, in the unused amount of the
Commitment. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each
Borrowing shall be comprised of the type of Advance and shall be made on the
Business Day specified in such Borrowing Request (each such day, a "Funding
Date"); provided that, notwithstanding the type of Advance specified in such
Borrowing Request, to the extent that an Advance is provided by an SPC pursuant
to the option referred to in Section 2.6(b), such Advance shall, unless the SPC
otherwise directs, be a CP Advance. The Lender shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the amount deposited or to be deposited by or on behalf of the
Lender into the Series 2000-1 Collection Account on such Business Day. Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on or before 3:00 p.m. (New York
City time) on such Business Day, the Lender shall deposit or cause to be
deposited with the Trustee same day funds in an amount equal to the amount of
the requested Borrowing. Such deposit will be made to the Series 2000-1
Collection Account, which the Trustee shall specify from time to time by notice
to the Lender.

         SECTION 2.3 Maturity of Advances. Each Advance shall mature and be
payable in full on the June 2001 Distribution Date (the "Maturity Date").

         SECTION 2.4 Reserved.

         SECTION 2.5 Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering a
Continuation/Conversion Notice to the Lender on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York
City time) on a Business Day, the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably
elect that all or any portion in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and
an integral multiple of $100,000 of any Advances be,

                  (a) in the case of ABR Advances, on not less than three nor
         more than five Business Days prior notice, converted into Eurodollar
         Advances; or


                                     -12-
<PAGE>   17


                  (b) in the case of Eurodollar Advances, on prior notice given
         not less than three nor more than five Business Days prior to the end
         of the related Interest Period, continued as Eurodollar Advances.

In the absence of delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice at least three
Business Days prior to the last day of the related Interest Period for any
Eurodollar Advance, such Eurodollar Advance shall, on such last day,
automatically convert to an ABR Advance. In the absence of delivery of a
Continuation/Conversion Notice, any ABR Advance shall automatically continue as
an ABR Advance. No portion of the principal amount of any Advances outstanding
may be continued as, or be converted into, Eurodollar Advances when any Event
of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

         SECTION 2.6 Funding. (a) The Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its
obligation to make or continue or convert Eurodollar Advances hereunder by
causing one of its foreign branches or Affiliates (or an international banking
facility created by the Lender) to make or maintain such Eurodollar Advance;
provided, however, that such Eurodollar Advance shall nonetheless be deemed to
have been made and to be held by the Lender, and the obligation of the Borrower
to repay such Eurodollar Advance shall nevertheless be to the Lender for the
account of such foreign branch, Affiliate or international banking facility. In
addition, the Borrower hereby consents and agrees that, for purposes of any
determination to be made for purposes of Section 2.11, 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, it
shall be conclusively assumed that the Lender elected to fund all Eurodollar
Advances by purchasing deposits in U.S. Dollars in its Eurodollar Office's
interbank eurodollar market.

         (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Lender may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a "SPC"), identified as
such in writing from time to time by the Lender to the Borrower and the
Servicer, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Advance
that the Lender would otherwise be obligated to make, maintain, continue or
convert pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall
constitute a commitment by any SPC to make, maintain, continue or convert any
Advance, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails
to provide all or any part of such Advance, the Lender shall be obligated to
make, maintain, continue or convert such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof.
The making, maintenance, continuation or conversion of an Advance by an SPC
hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Lender to the same extent, and as
if, such Advance were made, maintained, continued or converted by the Lender.
Each Advance made by an SPC shall, unless the SPC otherwise directs, be a CP
Advance. In the event that an SPC elects to make all or any portion of an
Advance, such Advance shall nonetheless be deemed to have been made by the
Lender and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Advance shall
nevertheless be to the Lender for the account of such SPC. Each party hereto
hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment
obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the
Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees
(which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior
to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all
outstanding commercial


                                     -13-
<PAGE>   18


paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against,
or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the
laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.6(b), any SPC may (i) with
notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the
Servicer and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a
portion of its interests in any Advances to the Lender or to any financial
institution (consented to by the Borrower and the Servicer) providing liquidity
and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding
or maintenance of Advances and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any
non-public information relating to its Advances to any rating agency,
commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or
liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This section may not be amended without the
written consent of each SPC.

         SECTION 2.7 Repayments and Prepayments. The Borrower shall, upon the
terms and subject to the conditions of the Series 2000-1 Supplement, from
Available Principal Funds, repay in full the unpaid principal amount of each of
the Advances upon the Maturity Date. Prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower,
upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Series 2000-1 Supplement,
from Available Principal Funds,

         (a) may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a voluntary
prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any
Advance; provided, however, that

                  (i) all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior
         irrevocable written notice to the Lender and the Trustee received by
         the Lender and the Trustee no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City
         time),

                           (A) on such Business Day in the case of ABR
                  Advances, or

                           (B) on not less than three (but in any event not
                  more than five) Business Days notice in the case of
                  Eurodollar Advances and CP Advances,

                  (ii) all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an
         aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of
         $100,000, and

                  (iii) to the extent that any portion of a CP Advance is
         prepaid, the Borrower shall also pay an amount equal to the interest
         (or discount) that will accrue on the Commercial Paper Notes funding
         such Advance through the maturity of such Commercial Paper Notes;

         (b) shall, on each date on which the Series 2000-1 Credit Support
Amount is less than the Series 2000-1 Minimum Credit Support Amount, make a
mandatory prepayment in an amount such that after giving effect to such
prepayment, the Series 2000-1 Credit Support Amount shall not be less


                                     -14-
<PAGE>   19


than the Series 2000-1 Minimum Credit Support Amount and the Maximum Invested
Amount shall not be less than the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the
Advances;

         (c) shall, on any Distribution Date during the Series 2000-1 Rapid
Amortization Period, make a mandatory payment of principal in an amount equal
to the lesser of (i) the Available Principal Funds and (ii) the Aggregate
Principal Balance of the Series 2000-1 Notes.

Each prepayment of any Advances made pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be
without premium or penalty (except as otherwise specified in this Section 2.7
or as may be required by Section 2.14).

         SECTION 2.8 Interest Provisions. Interest on the outstanding principal
amount of Advances shall accrue and be payable in accordance with this Section
2.8.

                  (a) Rates. Pursuant to an appropriately delivered Borrowing
         Request or Continuation/Conversion Notice, the Borrower may elect that
         Advances comprising a Borrowing accrue interest at a rate per annum:

                           (i) on that portion maintained from time to time as
                  an ABR Advance, equal to the Alternative Base Rate from time
                  to time in effect; and

                           (ii) on that portion maintained as a Eurodollar
                  Advance, during each Interest Period applicable thereto,
                  equal to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate (Reserve Adjusted)
                  for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for such
                  Advance;

provided that, notwithstanding the type of Advance specified in such Borrowing
Request or Continuation/Conversion Notice, to the extent that an Advance is
provided by an SPC pursuant to the option referred to in Section 2.6(b), such
Advance shall, unless such SPC otherwise directs, be a CP Advance and shall
bear interest at the Cost of Funds Rate.

         All Eurodollar Advances shall bear interest from and including the
first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day
of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such
Eurodollar Advance.

                  (b) Post-Maturity Rates. After the date any principal amount
         of any Advance is due and payable (whether on the Maturity Date, upon
         acceleration or otherwise) and not paid on such date, or after any
         other monetary Obligation of the Borrower or any other Obligor, as the
         case may be, shall have become due and payable and not be paid on such
         date, the Borrower or such other Obligor, as the case may be, shall
         pay, but only to the extent permitted by law, interest (after as well
         as before judgment) on the aggregate principal amount of all Advances
         then outstanding and on such other monetary Obligations at a rate per
         annum equal to,


                                     -15-
<PAGE>   20


                           (i) in the case of the aggregate principal amount of
                  all Advances then outstanding, the interest rate otherwise
                  applicable thereto plus an additional margin of 200 basis
                  points; and

                           (ii) in the case of such other monetary Obligations
                  of the Borrower or such other Obligor (other than such
                  obligations comprised of the principal amount of any
                  Advance), the Alternative Base Rate from time to time in
                  effect plus a margin of 200 basis points.

                  (c) Payment Dates. Interest shall be due and payable from
         Available Non-Principal Funds on each Distribution Date in accordance
         with the provisions set forth in Section 5.4 of the Series 2000-1
         Supplement. In addition, all accrued and unpaid Monthly Interest and

or counterclaim, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due,

specify from time to time by notice to the Borrower and the Paying Agent. Funds
received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Lender on
the next succeeding Business Day. All interest (including interest on
Eurodollar Advances and CP Advances) and fees shall be computed by the Lender
on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but
excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or
fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest
on an ABR Advance (other than when calculated with respect to the Federal Funds
Rate), 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days). Whenever any payment to be made
shall otherwise be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall
(except as otherwise required by clause (i) of the definition of the term
"Interest Period" with respect to Eurodollar Advances) be made on the next
succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in
computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment.

         SECTION 2.11 Eurodollar Rate Lending Unlawful. If the Lender shall
determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Borrower, be
conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that the introduction of or any change
in, or in the interpretation of, any law makes it unlawful, or any central bank
or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender to
make, continue or maintain any Advance as, or to convert any Advance into, a
Eurodollar Advance of a certain type, the obligations of the Lender to make,
continue or maintain any Advance as, or convert any such Advance into, a
Eurodollar Advance shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended


                                     -16-
<PAGE>   21


until the Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such
suspension no longer exist, and the Borrower shall immediately convert (in the
manner provided for in Section 2.5) all Eurodollar Advances into ABR Advances
at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner,
if required by such law or assertion.

         SECTION 2.12 Deposits Unavailable. If the Lender shall have determined
that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market, adequate
means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to
Eurodollar Advances of any type, then, upon notice to the Borrower, the
obligations of the Lender under Section 2.1 to make or continue any Advances
as, or to convert any Advances into, Eurodollar Advances shall forthwith be
suspended until the Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances
causing such suspension no longer exist.

         SECTION 2.13 Increased Eurodollar Advance Costs, etc. The Borrower
agrees to reimburse the Lender or its SPC, as applicable, for any increase in
the cost to the Lender or its SPC, as applicable, of, or any reduction in the
amount of any sum receivable by the Lender in respect of, making, continuing or
maintaining (or of its obligation to make, continue or maintain) any Advances
as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Advances into,
Eurodollar Advances that arise in connection with any change in, or the
introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or
phase-in after the date hereof of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline,
decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court,
central bank, regulator or other Governmental Authority, except for such
changes with respect to increased capital costs and taxes which are governed by
Sections 2.15 and 2.16, respectively; provided, however, that the Borrower
shall not have any obligation to pay any such additional amount under this
Section 2.13 with respect to any day or days unless the Lender shall have
notified the Borrower of its demand within 45 days after the date upon which
the Lender has obtained audited information with respect to the fiscal year of
the Lender in which such day or days occurred. Each such demand shall be
provided to the Lender in writing and shall state, in reasonable detail, the
reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate the
Lender on an after-tax basis for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such
additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrower directly to the Lender on
the Distribution Date following its receipt of such notice, and such notice
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the
Borrower. Such amounts to be paid by the Borrower shall constitute "Carrying
Charges" within the meaning of the Base Indenture and "Series 2000-1 Carrying
Charges" within the meaning of the Series 2000-1 Supplement.

         SECTION 2.14 Funding Losses. In the event the Lender or any SPC shall
incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of
the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the
Lender to make, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of any
Advance as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Advance
into, a Eurodollar Advance) as a result of


                                     -17-
<PAGE>   22


                  (a) any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the
         principal amount of any Eurodollar Advances on a date other than the
         scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether
         pursuant to Section 2.7 or otherwise;

                  (b) any Advances not being made as Eurodollar Advances in
         accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor;

                  (c) any Advances not being continued as, or converted into,
         Eurodollar Advances in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion
         Notice therefor; or

                  (d) any assignment by an SPC of its interest in any Advance
         to its Liquidity Provider at a time when Commercial Paper Notes
         funding such interest is outstanding;

then the Borrower shall, on the Distribution Date occurring in the calendar
month following its receipt of written notice thereof from the Lender, pay
directly to the Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of
the Lender) reimburse the Lender or such SPC, as applicable, for such loss or
expense. Such written notice (which shall include calculations in reasonable
detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on
the Borrower. Such amounts to be paid by the Borrower shall constitute
"Carrying Charges" within the meaning of the Base Indenture and "Series 2000-1
Carrying Charges" within the meaning of the Series 2000-1 Supplement.

         SECTION 2.15 Increased Capital Costs. If any change in, or the
introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or
phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request
(whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank, regulator
or other Governmental Authority after the Closing Date affects or would affect
the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Lender or
any Person controlling the Lender, and the Lender determines (in its sole and
absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling
Person's capital as a consequence of the Advances made by the Lender is reduced
to a level below that which the Lender or such controlling Person could have
achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then, in any such
case upon notice from time to time by the Lender to the Borrower, the Borrower
shall pay directly to the Lender, on the Distribution Date following its
receipts of such notice, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender
or such controlling Person on an after-tax basis for such reduction in rate of
return; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation to
pay any such additional amount under this Section 2.15 with respect to any day
or days unless the Lender shall have notified the Borrower of its demand
therefor within 45 days of the date upon which the Lender has obtained audited
information with respect to the fiscal year of the Lender in which such day or
days occurred. A statement of the Lender as to any such additional amount or
amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. In
determining such amount, the Lender may use any method of averaging and
attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem
applicable. Such


                                     -18-
<PAGE>   23


amounts to be paid by the Borrower shall constitute "Carrying Charges" within
the meaning of the Base Indenture and "Series 2000-1 Carrying Charges" within
the meaning of the Series 2000-1 Supplement.

         SECTION 2.16 Taxes. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and
interest on, the Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder (including
fees) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or
future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties,
withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing
authority, but excluding taxes imposed on or measured by the overall net
income, overall receipts or overall assets of the Lender and franchise taxes
imposed on the Lender by the jurisdiction under the laws of which it is
organized or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on or measured
by the overall net income, overall receipts and overall assets of the Lender
and franchise taxes imposed on the Lender by the jurisdiction of the Lender's
Domestic Office or Eurodollar Office, as the case may be, or any political
subdivision thereof (such non-excluded items being called "Taxes"). In the
event that any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the
Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any
applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrower will

                  (i)   pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount
         required to be so withheld or deducted;

                  (ii)  promptly forward to the Lender an official receipt or
         other documentation satisfactory to the Lender evidencing such payment
         to such authority; and

                  (iii) pay to the Lender (or, if applicable, for its own
         account) such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure
         that the net amount actually received by the Lender will equal the
         full amount the Lender would have received had no such withholding or
         deduction been required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Lender with respect to
any payment received by the Lender hereunder, the Lender may pay such Taxes and
the Borrower will promptly pay such additional amounts (including any
penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount
received by such person after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on
such additional amount) shall equal the amount such person would have received
had no such Taxes been asserted.

         If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate
taxing authority or fails to remit to the Lender the required receipts or other
required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for any
incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Lender
as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 2.16, a
distribution hereunder by the Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.


                                     -19-
<PAGE>   24


         Upon the request of the Borrower, any lender hereunder (including any
successor or assign of the Lender) that is organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction other than the United States shall, prior to the initial due date
of any payments to such Person hereunder (and to the extent permissible under
then current law), execute and deliver to the Borrower, one or more (as the
Borrower may reasonably request) (i) United States Internal Revenue Service
Form 4224 or Form W-8ECI or (ii) United States Internal Revenue Service Form
1001 or Form W-8BEN or such other forms or documents (or successor forms or
documents), appropriately completed, as may be applicable to establish the
extent, if any, to which a payment to the Lender is exempt from withholding or
deduction of Taxes; provided, that, if any lender delivers either a Form 4224
or Form 1001, such lender must deliver a Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN, as
appropriate, to the Borrower on or before December 31, 2000.

         SECTION 2.17 Conditions to the Making of Advances. (a) The
effectiveness of this Agreement and the obligation of the Lender to make the

                  (i)   the Lender shall have received a completed and duly

         and agreements as the Lender shall reasonably request.

         The delivery of any Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 2.2 shall
constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower and the Servicer that
the foregoing statements are true.

         Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Lender
shall have no obligation to fund an Advance if, as of the Funding Date for such
Advance, the Lender shall have received advice


                                     -23-
<PAGE>   28

federal court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body or
arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Lender.

the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Obligor and all other notices
whatsoever to the Borrower with respect to such Obligations. The Obligations of
the Borrower under this Agreement and the Series 2000-1 Note shall not be
affected by (i) the failure of the Lender or the holder of the Series 2000-1
Note or holders of any such Obligations to assert any claim or demand or to
exercise or enforce (or cause the Trustee to exercise or enforce) any right,
power or remedy against the Borrower or the Collateral or otherwise, (ii) any
extension or renewal for any period (whether or not longer than the original
period) or exchange of any such Obligations or the release or compromise of any
obligation of any nature of any Person with respect thereto, (iii) the
surrender, release or exchange of all or any part of any property (including
the Collateral) securing payment and performance of any such Obligations or the
compromise or extension or renewal for any period (whether or not longer than
the original period) of any obligations of any nature of any Person with
respect to any such property, and (iv) any other act, matter or thing which
would or might, in the absence of this provision, operate to release, discharge
or otherwise prejudicially affect the Obligations of the Borrower.

         subsection (b) and for which it is acting with complete investment
         discretion, for investment purposes only and not with a view to
         distribution, subject, nevertheless, to the understanding that the
         disposition of its property shall at all times be and remain within
         its control;

                  (d) it understands that the Series 2000-1 Note has not been
         and will not be registered or qualified under the Securities Act or
         any applicable state securities laws or the securities laws of any
         other jurisdiction and is being offered only in a transaction not
         involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act
         and may not be resold or otherwise transferred unless so registered or
         qualified or unless an exemption from registration or qualification is
         available, that the Borrower is not required to register the Series
         2000-1 Note, and that any transfer must comply with provisions of

                  (f) it will comply with all applicable federal and state

         case, in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state
         of the United States or any other jurisdiction;

                  (h) if it desires to offer, sell or otherwise transfer,
         pledge or hypothecate the Series 2000-1 Note as described in clause

         Series 2000-1 Note will be required to deliver a certificate and may

         counsel, in each case, as described in the Base Indenture, reasonably
         satisfactory in form and substance to the Borrower, that an exemption
         from the registration requirements of the Securities Act applies to
         such offer, sale, transfer or hypothecation. Upon original issuance
         thereof, and until such time as the same may no longer be required
         under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the
         certificate evidencing the Series 2000-1 Note (and all securities
         issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) shall bear a
         legend substantially in the form that appears on the form of Series
         2000-1 Note included in the Series 2000-1 Supplement. The Lender
         understands that the registrar and transfer agent for the Series
         2000-1 Note will not be required to accept for registration of
         transfer the Series 2000-1 Note acquired by it, except upon

         Note substantially the same representations and warranties contained
         in the foregoing paragraphs.

         SECTION 4.4 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Borrower will pay
or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before any penalty accrues from
the failure to so pay or discharge, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental
charges levied or imposed upon the Borrower or upon the income, profits or
property (including any property that is part of the Collateral) of the
Borrower and (2) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if

however, that the Borrower shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause
to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim the amount,
applicability or validity of which is being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and for which adequate provision has been made or where
the failure to effect such payment or discharge is not adverse in any material
respect to the Lender. The Borrower and Budget Group are members of an
affiliated group within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code which has
filed, and will continue to file, a consolidated return for federal income tax
purposes, and the Borrower shall be included in consolidated federal income tax
returns filed by Budget Group for such affiliated group.

directors, employees and agents of each of them (collectively, the "Indemnified
Parties") free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of
action, suits, losses, costs, liabilities and damages, and expenses incurred in
connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnified Party is a
party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements whether incurred in connection
with actions between or among the parties hereto or the parties hereto and
third parties (collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"), incurred by the

         transactions contemplated under the Related Documents;

                  (b) the entering into and performance of this Agreement and

         to fund any Advance; provided that any such action is resolved by
         final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction in favor of such
         Indemnified Party);

                  (c) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to

         any real property owned or operated by Budget Group or any Subsidiary
         thereof of any Hazardous Material (including any losses, liabilities,
         damages, injuries, costs, expenses or claims asserted or arising under
         any Environmental Law), regardless of whether caused by, or within the
         control of, Budget Group or such Subsidiary;

except for any such Indemnified Liabilities arising for the account of a
particular Indemnified Party by reason of the relevant Indemnified Party's
gross negligence or willful misconduct or a breach by such Indemnified Party
(or its agents or employees or any other Person under its control) of any of
its obligations under this Agreement, as determined by a final judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction. If and to the extent that the foregoing
undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower and Budget Group,
jointly and severally, hereby agree to make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is
permissible under applicable law. Provided, however, the indemnification
provided under this Section 4.5 is not intended to create credit recourse to
Budget Group for the Borrower's failure to repay any principal of or interest
on any Advance.

         SECTION 4.6 Maintenance of Separate Existence. Each of the Borrower
and Budget Group acknowledges its receipt of a copy of that certain opinion
letter issued by Mayer, Brown & Platt, dated February 25, 2000, and addressing
the issue of substantive consolidation as it may relate to it. Each of the
Borrower and Budget Group hereby agrees to maintain in place all policies and
procedures, and take and continue to take all actions, described in the factual
assumptions set forth in such opinion letter and relating to it.

         and, in the case of defaults other than with respect to Section 4.3(b)
         or 4.3(c), such default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30

         Any of the Related Documents or any portion thereof shall not be in

more Events of Default the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower and the
Trustee, immediately declare the Maturity Date to have occurred and the
principal of the Series 2000-1 Note to be immediately due and payable, together
with all interest thereon and fees, expenses and other amounts owing under this

referred to in Section 5.1(f), such amounts shall immediately and automatically
become due and payable and the Commitment (if not theretofore terminated) shall
immediately and automatically be terminated without any further action by any

<PAGE>   39


         SECTION 5.3 No Waiver. The failure to exercise any of the rights and
remedies set forth in this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the right
to exercise the same or any other option at any subsequent time in respect of
the same Event of Default or any other Event of Default. The acceptance by the
Lender of any payment hereunder which is less than payment in full of all
amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall not constitute a
waiver of the right to exercise any of the foregoing rights and remedies at
that time or at any subsequent time or nullify any prior exercise of any such
rights and remedies without the express consent of Lender, except as and to the
extent otherwise provided by law.


                                   ARTICLE VI

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 6.1 No Amendments. No amendment to or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by Budget Group or the Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by Budget Group, the Borrower and the Lender. A copy of any
amendment shall be furnished by the Borrower to the Trustee.

         SECTION 6.2 No Waiver; Remedies. Any waiver, consent or approval given
by any party hereto shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given, and no waiver by a party of any breach or
default under this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or
default. No failure on the part of any party hereto 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, or any abandonment or
discontinuation of steps to enforce the right, power or privilege, preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. No notice
to or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle such party to any
other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.

         SECTION 6.3 Binding on Successors and Assigns. (a) This Agreement shall
be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Servicer and the
Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that
neither the Borrower nor the Servicer may assign its rights or obligations
hereunder or in connection herewith or any interest herein (voluntarily, by
operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Lender;
and provided, further, that, except as otherwise contemplated in Section 2.6,
the Lender may not transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise encumber its rights or
obligations hereunder or in connection herewith or any interest herein without
the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be
unreasonably delayed or withheld and which consent (i) shall be deemed to have
been given in the absence of a written notice delivered by the Borrower to the
Lender, on or before the fifth Business Day after receipt by the Borrower of
the Lender's request for consent, stating, in reasonable detail, the reasons
why the Borrower proposes to


                                     -35-

withhold such consent and (ii) shall not be required if an Event of Default has
occurred and is then continuing), except to an Affiliate thereof which is an
Eligible Assignee or as otherwise permitted under this Section 6.3. Nothing
expressed herein is intended or shall be construed to give any Person other
than the Persons referred to in the preceding sentence any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement.

         (b) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement,
the Lender may at any time grant to one or more commercial banks or other
financial institutions (each of such commercial banks and other financial
institutions being herein called a "Participant") a participating interest in
or lien on the Lender's interests in the Advances made hereunder and such
Participant, with respect to its participating interest, shall be entitled to
the benefits of the Lender under this Agreement.

         SECTION 6.4 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made herein and in the Series 2000-1 Note
delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making and the repayment of the
Advances and the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Series 2000-1
Note and shall continue in full force and effect until all interest and
principal on the Series 2000-1 Note and other amounts owed hereunder have been
paid in full and the commitment of the Lender hereunder has been terminated. In
addition, the obligations of the Borrower under Sections 2.11 through 2.16, 4.5
and 6.5 shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.

         SECTION 6.5 Payment of Costs and Expenses. The Borrower and Budget
Group, jointly and severally, agree to pay on demand all expenses of the Lender
(including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of rating agencies,
counsel to the Lender and local counsel, if any, who may be retained by counsel
to the Lender) in connection with

         (a) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and
administration of this Agreement and of each other Related Document, including
schedules and exhibits, and any amendments, waivers, consents, supplements or
other modifications to this Agreement or any other Related Document as may from
time to time hereafter be required, whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated;

         (b) the filing, recording, refiling or rerecording of any Related
Document and/or any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements relating

modifications to any thereof and any and all other documents or instruments of
further assurance required to be filed or recorded or refiled or rerecorded by
the terms hereof or the terms of any Related Document;

         (c) the preparation and review of the form of any document or

         SECTION 6.8 Severability of Provisions. Any covenant, provision,
agreement or term of this Agreement that is prohibited or is held to be void or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision and that
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of the prohibition or

Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

         SECTION 6.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts (which may include facsimile) and by the different parties

for all such purposes as indebtedness and (c) agrees that the provisions of the
Related Documents shall be construed to further these intentions.

         SECTION 6.12 No Proceedings; Limited Recourse. Each of Budget Group
and the Lender (solely in its capacity as such) hereby covenants and agrees
that it will not institute against the Borrower, or join any other Person in
instituting against the Borrower, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceeding so long as any Notes issued by the
Borrower pursuant to the Base Indenture shall be outstanding or there shall not
have elapsed one year plus one day since the last day on which any such Notes
shall have been outstanding, all as more particularly set forth in Section
13.17 of the Base Indenture and subject to any retained rights set forth
therein. In addition, each of the foregoing parties agree that all fees,
expenses and other costs payable hereunder by the Borrower shall be payable

         SECTION 6.13 Confidentiality. The Lender shall hold all non-public
information provided to them by Budget Group or any of its Subsidiaries
pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (excluding any information
that becomes available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis without
violation of this Section) in accordance with the Lender's customary procedures
for handling confidential information of this nature, but may make disclosure
to any of its examiners, regulators (including the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners), Affiliates, outside auditors, counsel and other
professional advisors in connection with this Agreement or any other Related
Document or as reasonably required by any potential bona fide transferee,
participant or assignee, or in connection with the exercise of remedies under a
Related Document, or as requested by any governmental agency or representative
thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with applicable
litigation; provided, however, that unless specifically prohibited by
applicable law or court order, the Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of
any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than
any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition
of the Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such
non-public information and, where practicable, prior to disclosure of such
information; prior to any such disclosure pursuant to this Section 6.13, the
Lender shall require any such bona fide transferee, participant and assignee
receiving a disclosure of non-public information to agree, for the benefit of
Budget Group and its Subsidiaries, in writing to be bound by this Section 6.13;
and to require such Person to require any other Person to whom such Person
discloses such non-public information to be similarly bound by this Section
6.13; and except as may be

or any of its Affiliates in which the Borrower or such Affiliate is not
restricted hereby from engaging in with any other Person.

         SECTION 6.16 Independence of Covenants. All covenants contained in
this Agreement and each other Related Document shall be given independent
effect such that, in the event a particular action or condition is not
permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an
exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall
not, unless expressly so provided in such first covenant, avoid the occurrence
of a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken
or such condition exists.

OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PERSON OR THE PROPERTY OF SUCH PERSON, SUCH
PERSON HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF THE OBLIGATIONS OF
SUCH PERSON UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER RELATED DOCUMENTS.
