times, and now has, power, authority and legal right to acquire and own the Receivables contemplated to be transferred to the Trust pursuant to the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement. 
  
 (b) The Seller is duly qualified to do business and, where necessary is in good standing (or is exempt from such
requirement), and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualifications, except where the failure to so qualify or obtain
licenses or approvals would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which it is a party. 
  
 (c) The Seller has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to carry out its terms and to consummate the transactions contemplated
herein; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by the Seller by all necessary corporate action. 
  

 3 








 (d) The execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein by the
Seller and the fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement by the Seller shall not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws of the Seller, or any indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties
pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument (other than pursuant to the Basic Documents), or violate any law or, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, any order, rule or regulation
applicable to the Seller of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Seller or any of its properties.

 ARTICLE III 
 THE CERTIFICATES 
  
 SECTION 3.1 [Intentionally Omitted] 
  
 SECTION 3.2 Form of the Certificates  
  
 (a) The Certificates (other than the Certificates issued pursuant to Section 3.10 to and held by the Seller or its affiliates) shall be issued in denominations of at least $2,500,000 (or such other amount as
the Seller may determine in order to prevent the Trust from being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code, but in no event less than $250,000). The Certificates shall represent the entire beneficial
interest in the Trust. The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of a Responsible 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 duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable beneficial interests in the Trust, 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. 
  
 (b) The Definitive Certificates, if and when issued in accordance with the terms applicable to the relevant class of
Certificates, shall be typewritten, printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by any combination of these methods (with or without steel engraved borders) all as determined by the officers executing such Certificates, as evidenced by their
execution of such Certificates. 
  

 4 








 (c) The Certificates shall be issued in fully-registered form. The Certificates of any class will be
substantially in the form attached to the Certificate Issuance Order pursuant to which Certificates of such class are issued for the first time. The terms of any Certificates as set forth in a Certificate Issuance Order shall form part of this
Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 3.3 Execution, Authentication and
Delivery  
  
 (a) On the Initial Closing Date, concurrently
with the initial sale, transfer and assignment of Receivables to the Trust pursuant to the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall cause Certificates with an aggregate initial Certificate Balance equal to $124,000,000 to be
executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the Seller, signed by its chairman of the board, its president or any vice president, without further corporate action by the Seller, in authorized
denominations. Such Certificates shall have the terms, provisions and rights specified in the related Certificate Issuance Order for such class of Certificates to be dated the Initial Closing Date. Such Certificate Issuance Order shall be considered
a part of this Agreement. 
  
 (b) From time to time after the
Initial Closing Date, at the direction of the Seller (a “Certificate Issuance Order”), and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.9 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall cause
additional Certificates of any class theretofore issued, or Certificates of a new class, with an aggregate initial Certificate Balance specified by the Seller, to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written
order of the Seller, signed by its chairman of the board, its president or any vice president, without further corporate action by the Seller, in authorized denominations. All such Certificates shall have the terms, provisions and rights specified
in the related Certificate Issuance Order for such class of Certificates, may have a different Certificate Rate than the Certificates of any other class, and may be issued in book entry form pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof. The Certificate Rate for
any such Certificates issued after the Initial Closing Date shall be set forth in the related Certificate Issuance Order. The terms of any Certificates as provided in a Certificate Issuance Order shall be considered terms of this Agreement. Any
Certificate Issuance Order issued pursuant to this Section shall be considered a part of this Agreement. 
  
 (c) No Certificate of any class shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Agreement, or shall 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 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. JPMorgan Chase Bank is hereby appointed as the Owner Trustee’s
authenticating agent. 
  

 5 








 SECTION 3.4 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates  
  
 (a) The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office
or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of
Certificates as provided herein; provided, however, that no Certificate (other than the Certificates issued pursuant to Section 3.10 to and held by the Seller or its affiliates) may be subdivided upon transfer or exchange in a
manner such that the resulting Certificate if it had been sold in the original offering would have had an initial offering price of less than $2,500,000 (or such other amount as the Seller may determine in order to prevent the Trust from being
treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code, but in no event less than $250,000) and any attempted transfer of a Certificate in contravention of this restriction shall be void ab initio and the purported
transferor shall continue to be treated as the owner of such Certificate for all purposes. JPMorgan Chase Bank shall be the initial Certificate Registrar. Upon any resignation of a Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee shall promptly appoint a
successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Certificate Registrar. 
  
 (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8, the Owner Trustee
shall execute on behalf of the Trust, 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
the same class in authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. 
  
 (c) At the option of a Holder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same class in authorized denominations of a like amount upon
surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office maintained pursuant to Section 3.8. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust, authenticate
and deliver (or shall cause JPMorgan Chase Bank, as its authenticating agent, to authenticate and deliver) one or more Certificates dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent. Such Certificates shall be
delivered to the Holder making the exchange. 
  
 (d) 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 his
attorney duly authorized in writing and such other documents and instruments as may be required by Section 9.12. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Owner
Trustee or Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice. The Owner Trustee shall certify to the Seller that surrendered Certificates have been duly canceled and retained or destroyed, as the case may be. 
  
 (e) 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. 

 

 6 








 SECTION 3.5 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates  
  
 (a) If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate
Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (ii) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee and the Trust such security or indemnity
as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of
the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (or shall cause JPMorgan Chase Bank, as its authenticating agent, to authenticate and deliver), in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a
replacement Certificate of the same class in authorized denominations of a like amount; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, but not a mutilated Certificate, shall have become or within seven days
shall be due and payable, then instead of issuing a replacement Certificate the Owner Trustee may pay distributions to such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate when so due or payable. 
  
 (b) If, after the delivery of a replacement Certificate or distribution in respect of a destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate pursuant to subsection 3.5(a), a protected bona fide purchaser of the original Certificate in lieu of which such replacement Certificate was issued presents for payment such original Certificate, the Owner Trustee shall be
entitled to recover such replacement Certificate (and any distributions or payments made with respect thereto) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Certificate from such Person to whom such replacement
Certificate was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a protected bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the
Owner Trustee in connection therewith. 
  
 (c) In connection with
the issuance of any replacement Certificate under this Section 3.5, the Owner Trustee may require the payment by the Holder of such Certificate of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation
thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. 
  
 (d) Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.5 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall
constitute an original additional beneficial interest in the Trust, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall be found at any time or be enforced by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement
equally and proportionately with any and all other Certificates duly issued hereunder. 
  
 (e) The provisions of this Section 3.5 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificates. 
  
 SECTION 3.6 Persons Deemed
Certificateholders. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the
Certificateholder of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Article V and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary. 
  

 7 








 SECTION 3.7 Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Owner Trustee
shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the Seller, within 15 days after receipt by the Owner Trustee of a request therefor from the Servicer or the Seller in writing, a list, in such form as the Servicer or the Seller may
reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Servicer, the Seller 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 3.8 Maintenance of Corporate Trust Office. The Owner Trustee shall maintain in 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 the offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank, as its principal office for such purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Seller and to the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any
such office or agency. 
  
 SECTION 3.9 Appointment of Paying
Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section 5.2 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee and the Servicer;
provided that no such reports shall be required so long as the Seller is the sole Certificateholder. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the
distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in
any material respect. The Paying Agent shall initially be JPMorgan Chase Bank. JPMorgan Chase Bank shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Owner Trustee. If JPMorgan Chase Bank shall no longer be the
Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall hold all
sums, if any, held by it for distribution 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 6.3, 6.6, 6.7 and 6.9 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 Certificates
Issued to Seller. On and after the Initial Closing Date, the Seller shall retain beneficial and record ownership of Certificates representing at least 0.5% of the Certificate Balance of each class of Certificates. Certificates issued to the
Seller shall be in definitive form only.

 SECTION 3.11 Book-Entry Certificates. If, and to the extent, so provided in the related
Certificate Issuance Order, Certificates (other than those described in Section 3.10) may be issued in the form of a typewritten certificate or certificates representing Book-Entry Certificates. Any such Book Entry Certificate shall be
delivered to the Clearing Agency by or on behalf of the Trust and shall be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the Clearing Agency (or its nominee) and no Certificate Owner shall receive a Definitive Certificate. If and to the
extent Book-Entry Certificates have been issued pursuant to this Section 3.11 with respect to any Certificates: 
  
 (a) the provisions of this Section 3.11 shall be in full force and effect; 
  
 (b) the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of
this Agreement (including the distribution of Certificate Balance and interest on such Certificates and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Holder of such Certificates, and shall have no obligation to the Certificate
Owners; 
  
 (c) to the extent that the provisions of this
Section 3.11 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.11 shall control; 
  
 (d) the rights of the Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and
agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants and, unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.13, the initial Clearing Agency shall make book entry
transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of Certificate Balance and interest on such Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants; and 
  
 (e) whenever this Agreement requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of
Certificates evidencing a specified percentage of the Voting Interests, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received written instructions to such effect from Certificate Owners and/or
Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of Voting Interests and has delivered such instructions to the Owner Trustee. 
  
 The Seller or the Owner Trustee may set a record date for the purpose of determining the identity of Holders of Certificates entitled to
vote or to consent to any action by vote as provided in this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 3.12 Notices to Clearing Agency. With respect to any Certificates issued as Book-Entry Certificates, whenever a notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this Agreement, unless and until
Definitive Certificates representing such Certificates shall have been issued to the related Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.13, the Owner Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the
related Certificateholders to the Clearing Agency and shall have no further obligation to such Certificate Owners.

 SECTION 3.13 Termination of Book Entry Registration. If for any Certificates issued as Book-Entry
Certificates (i) the Administrator advises the Owner Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Certificates, and the Administrator is unable to locate a
qualified successor, (ii) the Administrator at its option advises the Owner Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Servicing Default,
Certificate Owners representing beneficial interests aggregating at least a majority of the then outstanding Voting Interests advise the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer
in the best interest of the Certificate Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Certificate Owners and the Owner Trustee of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners
requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Owner Trustee of the typewritten Certificate or Certificates representing Book-Entry Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Owner Trustee shall execute and
authenticate the related Definitive Certificates in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. Neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Owner Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively
rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. No Certificate Owner shall have the right to request that Definitive Certificates be issued to such Certificate Owner (or its nominee) or request that its interest be exchanged for a
Definitive Certificate or Definitive Certificates other than in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.13, unless, in respect of a class of Certificates other than the Class 2004-A Certificates, the relevant Certificate
Issuance Order provides otherwise. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall recognize the Holders of such Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders. 
  
 SECTION 3.14 Seller as Certificateholder. The Seller in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or
pledgee of Certificates and may otherwise deal with the Owner Trustee or its Affiliates as if it were not the Seller.

 (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 interest of the Certificateholders (it being understood that the issuance of additional Certificates as
contemplated by Section 3.3 shall not be deemed to materially adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders); 
  
 (e) the amendment, change or modification of the Administration Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or to amend or supplement any provision in a

majority of the Voting Interests upon at least 30 days prior notice thereof. 
  
 SECTION 4.3 Action by Certificateholders 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 Holders of Certificates (including the Seller) and the delivery to the Owner Trustee by each such Certificateholder of a certificate certifying that such Certificateholder reasonably believes that the Trust is insolvent. By its
acceptance of any Certificate issued to it on any Closing Date, the Seller agrees that it, at any time that it is the holder thereof, shall not approve or be deemed to have approved the commencement of a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy relating
to the Trust for purposes of this Section 4.3 unless such commencement is approved by the affirmative vote of all of the members of the Seller’s board of directors. 
  
 SECTION 4.4 Restrictions on Certificateholders’ Power. The Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee
to take or 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 2.3, nor shall the
Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given. 
  

 11

 ARTICLE V 
 APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES 
  
 SECTION 5.1 Establishment of Certificate Distribution Account  
  
 (a) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish
and maintain in the name of the Owner Trustee an Eligible Deposit Account known as the Superior Wholesale Inventory Financing Trust IX Certificate Distribution Account (the “Certificate Distribution Account”), bearing an additional
designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Certificate Distribution Account shall initially be established with JPMorgan Chase Bank. 
  
 (b) The Owner Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in and to
all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof (except Investment Proceeds therefrom as set forth in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Certificateholders.
Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If, at any time, the
Certificate Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Owner Trustee (or the Servicer on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate Distribution Account is not then held by the Owner Trustee or an Affiliate thereof)
shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any
investments to such new Certificate Distribution Account. 
  
 (c)
All amounts held in the Certificate Distribution Account shall, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations, be invested, at the written direction of the Servicer in Eligible Investments (in the name of the Owner Trustee or its
nominee). Such written direction shall constitute certification by the Servicer (or such other Person) that any such investment is authorized by this Section 5.1. 
  
 SECTION 5.2 Application of Trust Funds  
  
 (a) On each Monthly Distribution Date, based upon the Servicer’s Accounting for such Monthly Distribution Date, the
Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) shall distribute to the Certificateholders of each class of Certificates the amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account with respect to such class of Certificates pursuant to
Section 4.5 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Monthly Distribution Date pro rata to the Certificates of such class. 
  

 12 








 (b) On each Monthly Distribution Date, the Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) shall
include with each distribution to each Certificateholder the statement provided to the Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.8 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement for such class of
Certificates in respect of such Monthly Distribution Date setting forth, among other things, the amount of the distribution allocable to Certificate Balance and to interest, the Certificate Balance after giving effect to such distribution, the
balance of the Reserve Fund (and amounts, if any, distributed from the Reserve Fund), and the Monthly Servicing Fee with respect to the Monthly Distribution Date or the related Collection Period, as applicable, each since the last statement so
provided to such Certificateholders; provided that no such statement shall be required to be sent by the Owner Trustee so long as the Seller is the sole Certificateholder. 
  
 (c) If any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s distribution (or allocations of income) to a Certificateholder,
such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section 5.2; provided that the Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) shall not have an obligation to withhold any
such amount so long as the Seller is the sole Certificateholder. The Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders 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 a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder 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. Certificateholder), the Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) may in its sole discretion withhold
such amounts in accordance with this subsection 5.2(c). If a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as
such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. 
  
 (d) If the Indenture Trustee holds escheated funds for payment to the Trust pursuant to Section 3.3(e) of the Indenture, the Owner Trustee shall,
upon notice from the Indenture Trustee that such funds exist, submit on behalf of the Trust an Issuer Order to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 3.3(e) of the Indenture instructing the Indenture Trustee to pay such funds to or at the
order of the Seller. 
  
 SECTION 5.3 Method of Payment.
Subject to Section 7.1(c) and subject to the right of the Owner Trustee and the Clearing Agency to agree otherwise in the case of Book-Entry Certificates, distributions required to be made to Certificateholders of any class on any Monthly
Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record of such class on the related Record Date either 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 Record Date, or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the
address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register. 
  

 13 








 SECTION 5.4 Accounting and Reports to the Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue Service and
Others. The Owner Trustee shall (a) maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Trust on a calendar year basis on the accrual method of accounting, (b) deliver to each Certificateholder, as may be required by the Code and applicable
Treasury Regulations or otherwise, such information as may be required to enable each Certificateholder to prepare its federal income tax return, (c) file such tax returns relating to the Trust and make such elections as may from time to time be
required or appropriate under any applicable state or federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Trust’s characterization as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, (d) cause such tax returns to be signed in
the manner required by law and (e) collect or cause to be collected any withholding tax as described in and in accordance with subsection 5.2(c) with respect to income or distributions to Certificateholders. In preparing and filing tax
returns for the Trust, the Owner Trustee shall allocate taxable income of the Trust for each Collection Period in the following manner: (A) to the Certificateholders, an amount equal to the sum of (1) interest distributable on the Certificates on
the Monthly Distribution Date related to such Collection Period and (2) any Trust income attributable to discount on the Receivables that corresponds to any excess of the Certificate Balance of the Certificates over their initial issue price; and
(B) to the Seller, if and to the extent that the taxable income of the Trust for such Collection Period exceeds the amount computed under (A) above. Unless otherwise permitted or required by any applicable law or regulation, the Owner Trustee shall
allocate amounts of taxable income of the Trust for a particular Collection Period among the Certificateholders in proportion to the Certificate Balance owned by them as of the Record Date for the related Monthly Distribution Date. 
  
 SECTION 5.5 Signature on Returns; Tax Matters Partner. Subject to
Section 2.11, the Owner Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust any and all tax returns of the Trust, unless applicable law requires a Certificateholder to sign such documents, in which case such documents shall be signed by the Seller. The
Seller shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Trust pursuant to the Code.

 (g) The Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action
that would violate the provisions of this Section 6.1. 
  
 SECTION 6.2 Rights of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Basic Documents and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Basic Documents to

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.

 15

Document under any circumstances, except (i) for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own wilful misconduct or (ii) in the case of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.6 and
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 at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any
Receivable held by the Trust, or the perfection and priority of any security interest created by any such Receivable in any 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 distributions and payments to be made to Certificateholders under this Agreement or to Noteholders under the Indenture, including, without limitation: the existence and contents of any such Receivable on any
computer or other record thereof; the validity of the assignment of any such Receivable to the Trust or of any intervening assignment; the completeness of any such Receivable; the performance or enforcement of any such Receivable; the compliance by

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
Certificateholders, unless such Certificateholders 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 construed as a duty, and the Owner Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or wilful misconduct in the
performance of any such act. 
  
 SECTION 6.4 Action upon
Instruction by Certificateholders  
  
 (a) Subject to
Section 4.4, the Certificateholders 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 Certificateholders pursuant to Section
4.5. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 any Basic
Document, or is unsure as to the application, intent, interpretation or meaning of any provision of this Agreement or the Basic Documents, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to
the Certificateholders 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 such instruction 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 instructions within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the
circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action which is consistent, in its view, with this Agreement or the Basic Documents, and as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders,
and the Owner Trustee shall have no liability to any Person for any such action or inaction. 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding any Person’s right to instruct the Owner Trustee, neither the Owner Trustee nor any agent, employee, director or officer of the Owner Trustee shall have any 
  

 17 








 obligation to execute any certificates or other documents required pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the refusal to comply with any such instructions shall not constitute a default or breach under any Basic Document.

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 and (b) to the Noteholders

Trustee. The Owner Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Seller, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, that: 
  
 (a) It is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America. 

 
 (b) It has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and
perform this Agreement, and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement. The eligibility requirements set forth in Section 6.13 are satisfied with respect to it. 
  
 (c) The execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement (i) shall

assets, (ii) shall not violate any provision of the corporate charter or by-laws of the Owner Trustee or (iii) shall not violate any provision of, or constitute, with or without notice or lapse of time, a default under, or result in the creation or
imposition of any lien on any properties included in the Trust pursuant to the provisions of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement or other undertaking to which it is a party, which violation, default or lien could reasonably be expected to
have a materially adverse effect on the Owner Trustee’s performance or ability to perform its duties as Owner Trustee under this Agreement or on the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. 
  
 (d) The execution, delivery and performance by the Owner Trustee of this
Agreement shall not require the authorization, consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the filing or registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any Governmental Authority regulating the banking and corporate trust
activities of banks or trust companies in the jurisdiction in which the Trust was formed. 
  
 (e) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee and constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Owner Trustee, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
  

 18 








 SECTION 6.7 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 and need not investigate
any fact or matter in any such document. 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 the 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, attorneys, custodians or nominees 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, attorneys, custodians or nominees if such agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees shall have been selected by the
Owner Trustee with reasonable care; and (ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled professionals to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it. The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted
in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion or advice of any such counsel, accountants or other such Persons and not contrary to this Agreement or any Basic Document. 
  
 SECTION 6.8 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 Seller, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer in transactions in the same manner as it would have if it were not the Owner Trustee. 
  
 SECTION 6.9 Compensation and Indemnity. 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 Seller and the Owner Trustee, and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Servicer for its other
reasonable expenses hereunder, including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, custodians, nominees, representatives, experts and counsel as the Owner Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and
performance of its rights and its duties hereunder. The Servicer shall indemnify the Owner Trustee and its successors, assigns, agents and servants in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.1 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement.
The indemnities contained in this Section 6.9 shall survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee or the termination of this Agreement. Any amounts paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall be deemed not
to be a part of the Owner Trust Estate immediately after such payment. 
  

 19 








 SECTION 6.10 Replacement of Owner Trustee  
  
 (a) The Owner Trustee may at any time give notice of its intent to resign
and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Administrator; provided that no such resignation shall become effective, and the Owner Trustee shall not resign, prior to the time set forth in Section
6.10(c). The Administrator may appoint a successor Owner Trustee by delivering written instrument, in duplicate, to the resigning Owner Trustee and the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been appointed and have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice, the resigning Owner Trustee giving such notice may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall remove the
Owner Trustee if: 
  
 (i) the Owner Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.13 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator; 
  
 (ii) the Owner Trustee shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 
  
 (iii) a receiver or other public officer shall be appointed or take charge or control of the Owner Trustee
or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; or 
  
 (iv) the Owner Trustee shall otherwise be incapable of acting. 
  
 (b) If the Owner Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Owner Trustee for any reason 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. 
  
 (c) Any
resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall not become effective, and no such resignation shall be deemed to have occurred, until a
written acceptance of appointment is delivered by the successor Owner Trustee to the outgoing Owner Trustee and the Administrator, and all fees and expenses due to the outgoing Owner Trustee are paid. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant
to this Section 6.10 shall be eligible to act in such capacity in accordance with Section 6.13 and, following compliance with the preceding sentence, 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 Administrator shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to each of the Rating Agencies. 
  
 (d) 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. 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. 
  

 20 








 (e) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.10, the
Administrator shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee to all Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. 
  
 SECTION 6.11 Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Any Person into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust
business of the Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, provided such Person shall be eligible pursuant to Section 6.13, and without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any
of the parties hereto; provided, however, that the Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or consolidation to the Rating Agencies. 
  
 SECTION 6.12 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee  
  
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of
any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate or any of the Dealers 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 Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee or 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 6.12, 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 trustee pursuant to Section 6.13 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 6.10. 
  
 (b) Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: 
  
 (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the 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 Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction)
shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee; 
  
 (ii) no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this
Agreement; and 
  

 21 








 (iii) the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the
resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. 
  
 (c) 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. 
  
 (d) 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 trustee. 
  
 SECTION 6.13 Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee. The Owner
Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Section 26(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. The Owner Trustee shall at all times: (a) be a corporation satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Statute; (b) be
authorized to exercise corporate trust powers; (c) have an aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits of at least $50,000,000 and be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities; and (d) have (or have a parent which
has) a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least BBB- by Standard & Poor’s and at least Baa3 by Moody’s. If such corporation shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section 6.13, the aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits of such corporation shall be deemed to be its aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.13, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and
with the effect specified in Section 6.10.

the related Distribution Account and the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Notes is zero and (ii) the Specified Trust Termination Date. This Agreement and the 
  

 22 








 obligations of the parties hereunder (other than Section 6.9 hereof and as otherwise expressly provided herein)

date following the Monthly Distribution Date on which the final payments to be made to the Securityholders pursuant to the Basic Documents have been paid (or deposited in the appropriate Distribution Accounts). 
  
 (b) The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of any
Certificateholder shall not (x) operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor (y) entitle such Certificateholder’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 the Owner Trust Estate nor (z) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto. Except as provided in Section 7.1(a), neither the Seller nor any Certificateholder
shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Trust or this Agreement. 
  
 (c) Notice of any termination of the Trust specifying the Monthly Distribution Date upon which the Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Paying Agent for distribution of the final distribution and cancellation, shall
be given by the Owner Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed within five Business Days of receipt of notice of such termination from the Servicer given pursuant to Section 9.4 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, stating: (i)
the Monthly Distribution Date upon or with respect to which the final distribution of the Certificate Balance 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 distribution of the Certificate Balance; and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Monthly Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of the

Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Monthly Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.2. 
  
 (d) Notice of any termination of the Trust specifying the Monthly
Distribution Date upon which the Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Paying Agent for distribution of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given by the Owner Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed within
five Business Days of receipt of notice of such termination from the Servicer given pursuant to Section 9.4 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, stating: (i) the Monthly Distribution Date upon or with respect to which the final
distribution of the Certificate Balance 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 distribution of the Certificate
Balance; and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Monthly Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions 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 
  

 23 








 Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Monthly Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.2. The Seller
shall have the beneficial interest in any assets remaining in the Trust following final payment of the Certificates. 
  
 (e) If all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the written
notice specified in subsection 7.1(c), 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 laws with respect to escheat of funds, any funds
remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such remedies in the preceding sentence shall be deemed property of the Seller and distributed by the Owner Trustee to the Seller and the Owner Trustee shall have no further liability to the
Certificateholders with respect thereto. 
  
 (f) Upon the winding
up of the Trust and its termination, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be canceled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust
Statute.

Indenture and the specification of the terms and provisions thereof pursuant to a Certificate Issuance Order (with respect to any Certificates) or an Officer’s Issuance Certificate (with respect to any Notes) shall not be deemed to have such
effect for purposes hereof),

of any series or class of Securities without the consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the Outstanding Amount of such series of Notes or the Voting Interests with respect to such class of Certificates, as appropriate or

amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all of the Notes and all of the Voting Interests with respect to Certificates then outstanding. Prior to the execution of any such amendment, supplement or consent, the Owner Trustee shall furnish
written notification of the substance of such amendment, supplement or consent to the Rating Agencies.

 (b) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Securityholders or the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 8.2 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 Securityholders provided for in this Agreement or in any other Basic
Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Securityholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

respect to their undivided ownership interest therein only in accordance with Articles V and VII. No transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of any right, title, and interest of the Certificateholders to and in their ownership interest in
the Owner Trust Estate 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 9.2 Limitations on Rights of Others. Except for Section
2.7, Section 7.1(c) and Section 9.13, the provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Owner Trustee, the Seller, the Certificateholders, the 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
9.3 Derivative Actions. Any provision contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the right of any Certificate Owner to bring a derivative action in the right of the Trust is hereby made expressly subject to the following limitations
and requirements: 
  
 (a) such Certificate Owner must meet all
requirements set forth in the Statutory Trust Statute; and 
  

 26

Agencies under this Agreement shall be delivered as specified in Appendix B to the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement. 
  
 (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 9.5 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed enforceable to the fullest extent permitted, and if not so permitted,
shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the
Holders thereof. 
  
 SECTION 9.6 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (and by different parties on separate counterparts), each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
  
 SECTION 9.7 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements
contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Seller, the Owner Trustee and each Certificateholder and their respective successors and permitted assigns, all as herein provided. Any request, notice, direction, consent,
waiver or other instrument or action by a Certificateholder shall bind the successors and assigns of such Certificateholder. 
  
 SECTION 9.8 No Petition Covenants. The Owner Trustee by entering this Trust Agreement and each Certificateholder, by accepting a Certificate (or
interest therein) issued hereunder, hereby covenants and agrees that they shall not, prior to the day that is one year and one day after the termination of the Trust, acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Seller or the Trust to invoke
in any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Seller or the Trust under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Seller or the Trust or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Seller or the Trust. 
  

 27 








 SECTION 9.9 No Recourse. Each Certificateholder and Certificate Owner, by accepting a Certificate
(or interest therein), shall agree that such Person’s Certificates (or interest therein) represent beneficial interests in the Trust only and do not represent interests in or obligations of the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse, either directly or indirectly, 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. Except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, neither the Seller, the Servicer nor the Owner Trustee in their respective individual capacities, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors,
employees or successors or assigns, shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the distribution of Certificate Balance with respect to or interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the
covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the Certificates or this Agreement, it being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and indemnifications have been made by the Owner Trustee solely as the Owner Trustee in the
assets of the Issuer. Each Certificateholder or Certificate Owner by the acceptance of a Certificate (or beneficial interest therein) shall agree that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, in the case of nonpayment of any amounts
with respect to the Certificates, it shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom. 
  
 SECTION 9.10 Headings. The headings herein are for purposes of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision
hereof. 
  
 SECTION 9.11 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THEREOF OR OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES
HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. 
  
 SECTION 9.12 Certificate Transfer Restrictions  
  
 (a) Unless specified otherwise in the Certificate Issuance Order with respect to a class of Certificates, the Certificates (or interests therein) may not be acquired by or for the account of a Benefit Plan. By accepting and holding a
Certificate (or interest therein), the Holder thereof and any related Certificate Owner shall each be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan and, if requested to do so by the Seller pursuant to Section 3.4(b),
the Certificateholder and the Certificate Owner shall execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an Undertaking Letter in the form set forth in the Certificate Issuance Order for such class. The Certificates are also subject to the minimum
denomination specified in Section 3.4(a). 
  
 (b) The
Certificates will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities or blue sky laws of any other jurisdiction. Consequently, the Certificates are not transferable other than pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act and satisfaction of certain other provisions specified herein. No sale, pledge or other transfer of the Certificates (or interest therein) may be made by any Person unless either (i) such sale, pledge or other transfer is made to
the Seller, (ii) so long as the Certificates are eligible for resale pursuant 
  

 28 








 to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, such sale, pledge or other transfer is made to a person whom the transferor
reasonably believes after due inquiry is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a “Qualified Institutional Buyer”) acting for its own account (and not for the account of
others) or as a fiduciary or agent for others (which others also are Qualified Institutional Buyers) to whom notice is given that the sale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or (iii) such sale,
pledge or other transfer is otherwise made in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, in which case (A) the Owner Trustee shall require that both the prospective transferor and the prospective transferee
certify to the Owner Trustee and the Seller in writing the facts surrounding such transfer, which certification shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Seller, and (B) the Owner Trustee shall require a written
opinion of counsel (which will not be at the expense of the Seller or the Owner Trustee) satisfactory to the Seller and the Owner Trustee to the effect that such transfer will not violate the Securities Act. No sale, pledge or other transfer may be
made to any one person for Certificates with a face amount of less than $2,500,000 (or such other amount as the Seller may determine in order to prevent the Trust from being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of
the Code, but in no event less than $250,000) and, in the case of any Person acting on behalf of one or more third parties (other than a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) acting in its fiduciary capacity), for Certificates
with a face amount of less than such amount for each such third party. Any attempted transfer in contravention of the immediately preceding restriction will be void ab initio and the purported transferor will continue to be treated as the owner of
the Certificates for all purposes. Neither the Seller nor the Owner Trustee shall be obligated to register the Certificates under the Securities Act, qualify the Certificates under the securities laws of any state or provide registration rights to
any purchaser or holder thereof. 
  
 (c) Each Certificate shall
bear a legend to the effect set forth in subsections (a) and (b) above. 
  
 (d) The Seller shall be responsible for determining compliance with the restrictions set forth in this Section 9.12. 
  
 SECTION 9.13 Indemnification by and Reimbursement of the Servicer. The Owner Trustee acknowledges and agrees to reimburse (i) the Servicer and its
directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with Section 7.3(b) of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement and (ii) the Seller and its directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with Section 3.4 of the Trust
Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Owner Trustee further acknowledges and accepts the conditions and limitations with respect to the Servicer’s obligation to indemnify, defend and hold the Owner Trustee harmless as set forth in Section
7.1(a) of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement.
