Originator, be conclusive evidence of such Payoff Amount.

                  (b)      Payment of the Payoff Amount shall be made by and on
behalf of the Receivables Seller Parties by way of a wire transfer of

The Trustee will withdraw an amount equal to the Payoff Amount from the
Termination Payment Account and distribute such amount to the Agent (on behalf
of itself, FALCON and the Support Bank) by wire transfer of immediately

                  (c)      Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and in consideration of the payment in full of the Payoff Amount in
immediately available funds, the Agent, on behalf of itself, the Support Bank
and Falcon, hereby (i) acknowledges and agrees that payment of the Payoff
Amount will constitute payment in full of all obligations of the Receivables
Seller Parties under the Transaction Agreements and that, upon payment of the
Payoff Amount as described above, the Transaction Documents will automatically
terminate and that none of the Receivables Seller Parties or any guarantor or
obligor of any such Person shall have any further obligation or liability to
the Agent, FALCON or the Support Bank under the Transaction Agreements, except
for indemnities and such other obligations that by the express terms of the
Transaction Agreements survive the termination thereof, (ii) represents and
warrants that FALCON has not assigned to any other Person any of its rights as

interests being reconveyed hereunder by the Agent, the Support Bank and FALCON
are in each case reconveyed free and clear of any lien or security interest
created by the Agent, the Support Bank or Falcon. The Agent, for itself and on
behalf of FALCON and the Support Bank, further agrees that, concurrently with
its receipt of the Payoff Amount in immediately available funds, all security
interests and liens, if any, that each Receivables Seller Party or any
guarantor or obligor of the obligations under the Transaction Agreements have
granted to the Agent, FALCON and the Support Bank with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements, whether or not
specifically referred to herein, shall be automatically released. FALCON and
the Support Bank hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that payment of the

Payoff Amount to the Agent as described above will constitute payment in full
of all obligations of the Receivables Seller Parties to FALCON and the Support
Bank under the Transaction Agreements, except for indemnities and such other
obligations that by the express terms of the Transaction Agreements survive the
termination thereof, and that, upon such payment, FALCON and the Support Bank
will look solely to the Agent for receipt of any portion of the Payoff Amount
owed to them and none of the Receivables Seller Parties or any guarantor or
obligor of any such Person shall have any further obligation or liability to
FALCON or the Support Bank under the Transaction Agreements, except for
indemnities and such other obligations that by the express terms of the
Transaction Agreements survive the termination thereof.

                  (d)      Immediately upon the payment of the Payoff Amount in
immediately available funds as described above, the Agent, on behalf of itself,

granted in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents and may be of record in favor of the Trustee, the Agent, FALCON and
the Support Bank; the Agent will deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the
Trustee the originals of each Certificate for surrender and cancellation; and
the Agent will deliver, at the expense of the Receivables Seller Parties but in
no event at the expense of the Trustee, the Agent, Falcon or the Support Bank,
such other termination statements or documents as any Receivables Seller Party
may reasonably request in connection with the Trustee's, Agent's, FALCON's and
the Support Bank's above-described release of the security interests and liens
granted to the Trustee, the Agent, FALCON or the Support Bank pursuant to the
Transaction Agreements.

                  3.       Reconveyance by the Trust. (a) Subject to the terms
