     made by the Purchaser to the Originator in an amount not to exceed
     Available Cash (the amount set forth in clause (A) or clause (B), the "Cash
     Purchase Price"); and

          (ii) the balance of the Purchase Price to the Originator shall be

in subsection (a) or (b) of Section 4.2 was not true with respect to any
Purchased Receivable as of the applicable Purchase Date in any material respect
(any such Purchased Receivable, an "Ineligible Receivable"), the purchase of
such Ineligible Receivable shall be rescinded, the Originator to repurchase such
Ineligible Receivable from the Purchaser for an amount (the "Repurchase Amount")
equal to the Outstanding Principal Balance of such Ineligible Receivable on the
next Purchase Date or, if the Purchase Termination Date has occurred or if a Pay
Out Event or a Potential Pay Out Event has occurred and is continuing, on the
next Business Day. Prior to the Purchase Termination Date and if no Pay Out
Event or Potential Pay Out Event has occurred and is continuing, such Repurchase
Amount shall be paid (i) by reducing the Purchase Price payable by the Purchaser
to the Originator on the applicable Purchase Date pursuant to Section 2.2
hereof, and (ii) to the extent such Repurchase Amount exceeds the Purchase Price
payable on such Purchase Date, by reducing the amount of the Originator Note on
such Purchase Date (or, once the amount of the Originator Note has been reduced
to zero, by making a cash payment to the Collection Account). On or subsequent
to the Purchase Termination Date or if a Pay Out Event or a Potential Pay Out
Event has occurred and is continuing, such Repurchase Amount shall be paid by
wire transfer of cash to the Collection Account.

     (b) The Purchaser and the Originator agree that after payment of the

such Ineligible Receivable shall no longer constitute a Purchased Receivable for
purposes of this Agreement.

     (c) Except as expressly set forth herein, the Originator shall not have any
right under this Agreement, by implication or otherwise, to repurchase from the
Purchaser any Purchased Receivables or to rescind or otherwise retroactively
affect any purchase of any Purchased Receivables after the Purchase Date
relating thereto.

     SECTION 2.5 Returns and Refinancings. The Originator may accept a return of
Merchandise for full or partial credit to, or make an adjustment (including,
without limitation, any adjustment resulting from the exercise of any Cash
Option) in, the principal amount or finance or other charges accrued or payable
with respect to the related Receivable and may prior to the Purchase Termination
Date refinance any Receivable in connection with the purchase of

                                       6

<PAGE>

additional Merchandise or for other reasons, provided that, with respect to
Purchased Receivables, such credit, adjustment or refinancing is made in
accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy. The aggregate amount of all
such credits, adjustments and refinancings made by the Originator subsequent to
each Purchase Date in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy shall be
due and payable to the Purchaser on the next Purchase Date following the Date of
Processing in respect thereof or, if the Purchase Termination Date has occurred,
on the next Business Day following such Date of Processing. The amounts due to
the Purchaser pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid on the due date
therefor (i) by reducing the Purchase Price, if any, payable by the Purchaser on
such date, and (ii) to the extent the amount due exceeds the Purchase Price
payable on such date, by wire transfer of cash to the Collection Account.

     SECTION 2.6 Finance Charges. Finance Charges, whenever created (whether
prior to or after the occurrence of a Purchase Termination Event) and whenever
received (prior to or after the occurrence of a Purchase Termination Event),
accrued in respect of Purchased Receivables shall be the property of the
Purchaser and all Collections with respect thereto shall be allocated and
treated as Collections in respect of Purchased Receivables.

or regulation of any federal or state court or governmental agency or body
having jurisdiction over it, the Originator, the Initial Seller or the Purchaser
or any of its their respective properties; and no consent, approval,

obligation of the Originator, the Initial Seller and the Purchaser,
respectively, enforceable against the Originator, the Initial Seller and the

action or proceeding affecting it or any of its Subsidiaries before any court,
governmental agency or arbitrator, that may reasonably be expected to materially

and, as applicable, the Initial Seller additionally represent and warrant as

     (a) Eligible Receivable. Unless otherwise specified to the Purchaser and
Trustee in writing prior to the applicable Purchase Date for each Receivable,
all Receivables (including the Initial Receivables, as to which the Originator
makes this representation and warranty) sold and assigned to the Purchaser
hereunder on the Initial Closing Date are Eligible Receivables as of such
Initial Closing Date and all Receivables sold and assigned to the Purchaser
hereunder on any Purchase Date subsequent to the Initial Closing Date will be
Eligible Receivables as of such Purchase Date.

     (b) Sale of Receivables. The Originator is, as of the time of the transfer
to the Purchaser of each Receivable being sold to the Purchaser by it hereunder
on the Initial Closing Date, and will be, as of the time of the transfer to the
Purchaser of each Receivable sold to the

                                       10

<PAGE>

Purchaser hereunder on any subsequent Purchase Date, and the Initial Seller is,
with respect to the Initial Receivables being sold to the Purchaser by it, the
sole owner of such Receivable free from any Lien other than those released at or
prior to such transfer. There is no effective financing statement (or similar
statement or instrument of registration under the law of any jurisdiction) now
on file or registered in any public office filed by or against the Originator,
the Initial Seller or any Subsidiary of the Originator or the Initial Seller or
purporting to be filed on behalf of the Originator, the Initial Seller or any
Subsidiary of the Originator covering any interest of any kind in any Purchased
Receivables and the Originator and the Initial Seller will not execute nor will
there be on file in any public office any effective financing statement (or
similar statement or instrument of registration under the laws of any
jurisdiction) or statements relating to such Purchased Receivables, except (i)
in each case any financing statements filed in respect of and covering the
purchase of the Purchased Receivables by the Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement and the security interest created pursuant to the Indenture and (ii)
financing statements for which a release of Lien has been obtained or that has
been assigned to the Purchaser or the Trustee. All filings and recordings
(including pursuant to the UCC) required to perfect the title of the Purchaser
in each Receivable sold hereunder have been accomplished and are in full force
and effect and the Originator and the Initial Seller shall at their expense
perform all acts and execute all documents necessary or reasonably requested by
the Purchaser, any Notice Person or the Trustee at any time and from time to
time to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce the title or the security
interest of the Purchaser or the Trustee in the Purchased Receivables and the
priority thereof.

     (c) Accuracy of Receivable Schedule/ Information. As of each applicable
Purchase Date with respect to Receivables, each Receivable Schedule furnished by
Originator will be an accurate and complete listing of all the Purchased
Receivables as of that Purchase Date, as the case may be, and the information
contained therein with respect to such Purchased Receivables is true and correct
as of such date. All information heretofore furnished by, or on behalf of,
Originator to the Purchaser or the Trustee in connection with any Transaction
Document, or any transaction contemplated thereby, is true and accurate in every
material respect (without omission of any information necessary to prevent such
information from being materially misleading).

     (d) Location of Office and Records. The principal place of business and
chief executive office of each of the Originator and the Initial Seller is
located at 3295 College Street, Beaumont, Texas 77701. Originals or duplicates
of any incidental Records evidencing Purchased Receivables that may be kept by
the Originator or the Initial Seller shall be kept at, and only at, said
offices, and each of the Originator and the Initial Seller will not move its
principal place of business and chief executive office or permit any Records or
any books evidencing the Purchased Receivables that it may hold in its
possession to be moved unless (i) the Originator or the Initial Seller, as
applicable, shall have given to the Purchaser, the Notice Persons and the
Trustee not less than 45 days' prior written notice thereof, clearly describing
the new location, and (ii) the Originator or the Initial Seller, as applicable,
shall have taken such action, satisfactory to the Purchaser and the Trustee, to
maintain the title or ownership of the Purchaser and any security interest of,
or any filing in respect of title of, the Purchaser or the Trustee in the
Purchased Receivables at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect.
The Originator or the Initial Seller, as applicable, may not, in any event, move
the location where it

                                       11

<PAGE>

conducts any administration of the Purchased Receivables from 3295 College
Street, Beaumont, Texas 77701, without the prior written consent of the Notice
Persons.

     (e) Trade Names. Set forth on Schedule IV hereto is a complete and accurate
list of the trade names of the Originator and the Initial Seller for the
six-year period preceding the date of this Agreement.

the fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and January 31, 2002, audited by and
accompanied by the opinion of Ernst & Young independent public accountants.

financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial
condition and results of operations of Originator and its consolidated
subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods; such balance sheets and the
notes thereto disclose all liabilities, direct or contingent, of the Originator
and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof required to be

GAAP applied on a consistent basis. Since January 31, 2002, there has been no
material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), operations,
properties, assets or prospects of the Originator and its Subsidiaries, taken as
a whole except as disclosed in writing to the Trustee on or prior to the date

expressly understood that this Agreement and the obligations issued hereunder
are solely its obligations, and that no such personal liability whatever shall
attach to, or is or shall be incurred by the incorporators, shareholders,
employees, agents, limited partners, officers or directors, as such, of the
Originator, the Initial Seller or of any successor thereto, or any of them,
because of the creation of the obligations hereby authorized, or under or by
reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement
or in the Purchased Receivables or implied therefrom; and that any and all such
personal liability, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or
statute, of, and any and all such rights and claims against, every such
incorporator, shareholder, employee, agent, officer or director, as such,
because of the creation of the indebtedness hereby authorized, or under or by
reason of the obligations or covenants contained in this Agreement or in the
Purchased Receivables or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly waived and
released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution

                                       21

<PAGE>

of this Agreement. The Originator, the Initial Seller, the Purchaser and the
Trustee and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Originator, the
Initial Seller, the Purchaser or the Trustee may rely in good faith on any
document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person
respecting any matters arising hereunder.

     SECTION 6.7 Responsibilities of the Originator. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary (i) each of the Originator and the Initial Seller shall
perform all its obligations under the Credit and Collection Policy related to
the Purchased Receivables to the same extent as if such Purchased Receivables
had not been transferred to the Purchaser hereunder, (ii) the exercise by the
Purchaser of any of its rights hereunder shall not relieve the Originator or the
Initial Seller from its obligations with respect to such Purchased Receivables
and (iii) except as provided by law, the Purchaser shall not have any obligation
or liability with respect to any Purchased Receivables or the underlying
Contracts, nor shall the Purchaser be obligated to perform any of the
obligations or duties of the Originator or the Initial Seller thereunder.

     SECTION 6.8 Repossessed Merchandise. The Originator agrees to purchase
Merchandise repossessed by the Purchaser from an Obligor. The purchase price
payable by the Originator will be the fair market value of such unit of
repossessed Merchandise as mutually agreed upon between the Purchaser and the
Originator. Additionally, if any Purchased Receivable becomes a Charged-Off
Receivable, the Originator agrees to return to the Purchaser the amount (up to
the outstanding balance of such Purchased Receivable) of any premium for service
maintenance contracts or credit insurance (unless such amount has been paid
directly to the Purchaser by the applicable insurance company). Any amounts due
to the Purchaser in accordance with this Section (i) shall be paid in cash by
the Originator or, if no Purchase Termination Event or Series Pay Out Event has
occurred and is continuing, at the Purchaser's option, credited against the
principal amount owing on the Originator Note on the next Business Day following
such purchase or cancellation, (ii) shall constitute Recoveries and (iii) shall
be deposited in the Collection Account. The Purchaser shall be responsible for
delivering repossessed Merchandise to the Originator location.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                           PURCHASE TERMINATION EVENTS

     SECTION 7.1 Purchase Termination Events. If any of the following events
(each, a "Purchase Termination Event") shall occur and be continuing:

     (a) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of
the Originator or the Initial Seller under or in connection with this Agreement
or any Purchase Report or other information or report delivered by the
Originator or the Initial Seller pursuant hereto shall prove to have been false
or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made; provided,
however, that the falsity or incorrectness of any representation made pursuant
to Section 4.2(a) with respect to any Purchased Receivable shall not constitute
a Purchase Termination Event so long as the Originator or the Initial Seller, as
applicable, has complied with its obligations in respect of such Purchased
Receivable pursuant to Section 2.4;

     (b) the Originator or the Initial Seller shall fail to (i) perform or
observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in Sections 5.1(c), 5.1(d),
5.1(g), 5.1(h), 5.1(i), 5.1(j), 5.1(k),

                                       22

<PAGE>

5.1(l), 5.1 (m), 5.1 (n), 5.1(o), 5.1(p) or 5.2 or (ii) make any payment or
deposit to be made by it hereunder within three Business Days after the same
became due and payable;

     (c) the Originator or the Initial Seller shall fail to perform or observe
any other term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on its part to
be performed or observed and any such failure shall remain unremedied for ten
days;

     (d) the Originator or the Initial Seller shall generally not pay its debts
as such debts become due, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its
debts generally, shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors,
or shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the actions set forth
above in this subsection (d) or the Originator or the Initial Seller shall be
the subject of an Event of Bankruptcy;

     (e) the Originator or the Initial Seller transfers, sells or otherwise
disposes of (whether in one transaction or a series of transactions) all or
substantially all of its assets; provided that, so long as the Performance
Guaranty is in full force and effect, the Initial Seller may be dissolved; or

     (f) the Indenture shall cease to be in full force and effect or a Pay Out
Event shall have occurred under the Indenture;

then, and in any such event, the Purchaser may, by notice to the Originator,
declare its obligation to purchase Receivables from the Originator to be
terminated, whereupon such obligation shall forthwith be terminated; provided,
however, that in the case of any event described in subsection (d) above, such
termination shall automatically occur upon the happening of such event. No
termination under this Section 7.1 of the Purchaser's obligation to purchase
Receivables shall affect the then-existing obligations of the Originator or the
Initial Seller hereunder (other than the Originator's obligations to sell
Receivables to the Purchaser pursuant hereto).

     SECTION 7.2 Remedies. If a Purchase Termination Event has occurred and is
continuing:

     (a) The Purchaser (and its assignees) shall have all of the rights and
remedies provided to a secured creditor or a purchaser of accounts or chattel
paper under the UCC by applicable law in respect thereto.

     (b) The Purchaser (and its assignees) may at any time (i) notify the
respective Obligors of the Purchaser's ownership of the Purchased Receivables
and may direct that payment of all amounts due or to become due under the
Purchased Receivables be made directly to the Purchaser or its designee or (ii)
give notice, or require that the Originator and the Initial Servicer, at the
Originator's and the Initial Seller's expense, give notice of such ownership to
each such Obligor and direct that all payments be made directly to the Purchaser
or its designee.

     (c) The Purchaser (and its assignees) may elect to (i) sue for collection
on any Purchased Receivables or (ii) sell any Purchased Receivables to any
Person for a price that is acceptable to the Purchaser (or its assignees). In
connection with any such sale, the Purchaser or its assignees shall have the
right to assign its rights under this Agreement to a third-party. Any

                                       23

<PAGE>

such Purchased Receivable shall cease to be a Receivable for all purposes under
this Agreement as of the effective date of such sale.

     (d) The Originator and the Initial Seller shall, upon the Purchaser's (or
its assignee's) request and at the Originator's expense (i) assemble all of the
Originator's and the Initial Seller's Records, (ii) deliver such documents to
the Purchaser or its designee at a place designated by the Purchaser or, at the
Purchaser's option, provide the Purchaser or its designee with access thereto
and (iii) deliver to the Purchaser, its designees or assignees all computer
programs, material and data necessary to the immediate collection of the
Purchased Receivables by the Purchaser, or a party designated by the Purchaser,
with or without the participation of the Originator or the Initial Seller.

     (e) Each of the Originator and the Initial Seller hereby irrevocably
authorizes the Purchaser or its designee or assignees to take any and all steps
in the Originator's or the Initial Seller's name and on the Originator's or the
Initial Seller's behalf necessary or desirable, in the reasonable opinion of the
Purchaser, designee or assignee, to collect all amounts due under the Purchased
Receivables, including, without limitation, endorsing the Originator's or the
Initial Seller's name on checks and other instruments representing Collections,
enforcing the Purchased Receivables and the underlying Contracts and exercising
all rights and remedies in respect thereof.

     (f) The Originator and the Initial Seller will make such arrangements with
respect to the collection of the Purchased Receivables as may be reasonably
required by the Trustee.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     SECTION 8.1 Indemnities by the Originator and the Initial Seller. Without
limiting any other rights that the Purchaser may have hereunder or under
applicable law, each of the Originator and the Initial Seller hereby agrees to
indemnify the Purchaser (and its assignees) and each Indemnified Party from and
against any and all claims, losses and liabilities (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) (all the foregoing being collectively referred to as
"Indemnified Amounts") arising out of or resulting from this Agreement or in
respect of any Receivable or any Contract, excluding, however, Indemnified
Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on
the part of the Purchaser or such Indemnified Party, as the case may be (BUT
EXPRESSLY INCLUDING IN THE INDEMNITY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 8.1, INDEMNIFIED
AMOUNTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE ORDINARY, SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE OF
PURCHASER OR SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY, IT BEING THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES THAT, TO
THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 8.1, PURCHASER AND INDEMNIFIED PARTIES SHALL
BE INDEMNIFIED FOR THEIR OWN ORDINARY, SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE NOT
CONSTITUTING GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT). Without limiting or being
limited by the foregoing, the Originator shall pay on demand to the Purchaser or
any Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such Person
from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from:

                                       24

<PAGE>

     (a) the sale hereunder of any Receivable that is not at the date of such
sale an Eligible Receivable;

     (b) reliance on any representation or warranty or statement made or deemed
made by the Originator or the Initial Seller (or any of their respective
officers) under or in connection with this Agreement or in any certificate
report or document delivered pursuant hereto that, in any such case, shall have
been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;

     (c) the failure by the Originator or the Initial Seller to comply with any
applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Receivable or the related
Contract, or the nonconformity of any Receivable or the related Contract with
any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

     (d) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements
or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable
jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to the Purchaser's interest
in any Purchased Receivables;

     (e) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in
bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Purchased
Receivable of the Originator or the Initial Seller (including, without
limitation, a defense based on such Receivable or the related Contract not being

accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the
merchandise or services related to any such Purchased Receivable or the
furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise or services;

     (f) any failure of the Originator or the Initial Seller to perform its

     (g) any products liability or warranty claim arising out of or in

     (h) the commingling of Collections of Purchased Receivables at any time
with other funds of the Originator or the Initial Seller, regardless or whether

     (i) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to this Agreement
or in respect of any Purchased Receivable or any Contract;

     (j) the payment by the Purchaser of any taxes owed by the Originator or the

taxes, excise taxes or business taxes;

     (k) the failure to vest, and maintain vested, in the Purchaser a valid and
enforceable (A) ownership interest or (B) a first priority perfected security

first priority perfected security interest was assigned to the Trustee pursuant
to the Indenture); or

                                       25

<PAGE>

     (l) the Performance Guaranty shall cease to be effective or to be the
legally valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Conn, or Conn shall,
directly or indirectly, contest in any manner such effectiveness, validity,
binding nature or enforceability of its obligations thereunder.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Originator nor the Initial
Seller shall under any circumstances indemnify the Purchaser (or its assignees)
for any Indemnified Amounts that result solely from a default by an Obligor with
respect to a Purchased Receivable other than as described in clause (e) above or
resulting from the circumstances described in clauses (a), (c) or (f) above.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                               THE ORIGINATOR NOTE

     SECTION 9.1 Originator Note.

     (a) On the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall issue to the Originator a
revolving subordinated note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (together
with the Initial Seller's note assumed by the Purchaser as amended and restated,
collectively, the "Originator Note"). The principal amount of the Originator
Note outstanding from time to time shall be determined in accordance with
Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 6.8. It is understood and agreed that no cash shall be
paid to the Originator in respect of the Originator Note as a result of the
principal amount of the Originator Note decreasing pursuant to the calculations
in Sections 2.4 and 6.8. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the Purchaser
shall have the right (but not the obligation) to offset or adjust the Originator
Note by any amounts owed by the Originator to the Purchaser under this
Agreement.

     (b) Until the Issuer Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in
cash, no payments (whether for principal or interest) may be made, directly or
indirectly, by the Purchaser on the Originator Note except from amounts received
by the Purchaser under the Indenture. The Originator agrees not to ask, demand,
sue for or take or receive from the Purchaser in cash or other property by
set-off (including, without limitation, from or by way of collateral), payment
of all or any part of the Originator Note, except as permitted by the Indenture.
The Originator agrees that upon any distribution of all or any of the assets of
the Purchaser to creditors of the Purchaser upon the dissolution, winding up,
total or partial liquidation, arrangement, reorganization, adjustment,
protection, relief, or composition of the Purchaser or its debts, any payment or
distribution of any kind in respect of the Originator Note that otherwise would
be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Originator Note, directly
or indirectly, by set-off or in any other manner, including, without limitation,
from or by way of collateral, shall be paid or delivered directly to the Trustee
for application (in the case of cash) to or as collateral (in the case of
non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment in full of, the
Obligations until the obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in
cash. All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the Originator Note
that are received by the Originator contrary to the provisions of the Indenture
or the Originator Note shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by the
Originator and shall be forthwith paid over to the Trustee in the same form as
so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash)
to, or held as collateral (in the

                                       26

<PAGE>

case of non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment in full
of, the Issuer Obligations until the Issuer Obligations shall have been
indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Originator agrees that no payment or
distribution to the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Originator
Note shall entitle the Originator to exercise any rights or subrogation in
respect thereof until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full
in cash. The Originator and the Purchaser each hereby waives promptness,
diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the
Obligations and the Originator Note and any requirement that any Secured Party
protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien on any property
subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Purchaser or
any other Person or any Collateral.

     (c) The Originator agrees and confirms that the Originator Note represents
solely the right to receive certain amounts from funds available to the
Purchaser under the Indenture and that the Originator Note does not represent a
security interest in the Purchased Receivables or their proceeds. No payments
may be received, directly or indirectly, by the Originator (and if received, the
Originator agrees to return such payments to the Purchaser) on the Originator
Note unless all amounts required pursuant to the Indenture to be paid prior to
the payments in respect of the Originator Note have been paid.

     (d) The Originator agrees and confirms that the Trustee shall not have any
duty whatsoever to the Originator as holder of the Originator Note and that the
Trustee shall not be liable to the Originator for any action taken or omitted to
be taken with respect to the Originator Note.

     SECTION 9.2 Restrictions on Transfer of Originator Note. Neither any
Originator Note, nor any right of the Originator to receive payments thereunder,
shall be assigned, transferred, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated, participated
or otherwise conveyed unless the Trustee shall have received a non-petition
letter in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.

                                    ARTICLE X
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     SECTION 10.1 Amendments, Etc. No amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement, or consent to any departure by the Originator or
the Initial Seller therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by the Purchaser, the Enhancement Providers, the
Notice Persons of each Series and the Trustee and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which given. No material amendment of this Agreement shall be effective
unless the Trustee shall have received written confirmation by the Rating
Agencies that such amendment shall not cause the rating on the then outstanding
Notes to be downgraded or withdrawn. The Purchaser shall, promptly following the
effective date thereof, provide a copy of each amendment to or consent or waiver
under this Agreement to the Trustee, which shall provide each Rating Agency with
a copy thereof.

     SECTION 10.2 Notices Etc. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telex, facsimile or cable
communication) and mailed, telegraphed, telexed, transmitted, cabled or

the other parties. All such notices and communications shall when mailed or
telecopied be effective when deposited in the mails, or transmitted by
telecopier, respectively, except that notices to the Purchaser pursuant to
Article II shall not be effective until received by the Purchaser.

     SECTION 10.3 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Purchaser
to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under this Agreement shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of
any remedies provided by law.

     SECTION 10.4 Binding Effect; Governing Law. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Originator, the Initial Seller and the
Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns, except that the
Originator shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any
interest herein without the prior written consent of the Purchaser and the
Notice Persons. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing
obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain
in full force and effect until such time, after the Purchase Termination Date,
until the Purchaser shall not have any interest in any Purchased Receivables and
all obligations of the Originator and the Initial Seller hereunder shall have
been paid in full; provided, however, that the indemnification provisions of
Article VIII shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this
Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflict of laws
principles thereof (other than Section 5-1401 of the New York General
Obligations Law), except that the parties hereto agree that in order to
effectuate their intent that this Agreement evidences a sale, the determination
of whether the transfer by the Seller of the Purchased Receivables constitutes a
sale or whether it constitutes a grant of a security interest, by means of a
pledge or otherwise, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the State of Texas (without regard to the conflict of laws principles
thereof), including without limitation ss.9.109(e) of the Texas UCC.

     SECTION 10.5 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. In addition to the rights of
indemnification granted to the Purchaser under Article VIII, the Originator and
the Initial Seller agree to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the
Purchaser and the Trustee in connection with the preparation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Indenture and the other agreements and documents
to be delivered hereunder and thereunder, including, without limitation, the
reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Purchaser and the
Trustee with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Purchaser and the

connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement
or the other documents to be

                                       28

<PAGE>

delivered hereunder, and agrees to hold the Purchaser harmless from and against
any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or
omitting to pay such taxes and fees.

     SECTION 10.6 No Bankruptcy Petition. Each of the Originator and the Initial
Seller covenants and agrees that prior to the date which is one year and one day
after the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the
Originator Note) it will not institute against, or join any other Person in
instituting against, the Purchaser any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law. This Section 10.6 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.7 Acknowledgment of Assignments. Each of the Originator and the
Initial Seller hereby acknowledges and consents to the assignment by the
Purchaser of Purchased Receivables and the rights of the Purchaser under this
Agreement to the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Each of the Originator and
the Initial Seller further acknowledges that, in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture, the Trustee may, under certain circumstances exercise some or all
of the rights of the Purchaser hereunder.

     SECTION 10.8 Waiver of Setoff. All payments hereunder by the Originator and
the Initial Seller to the Purchaser or by the Purchaser to the Originator or the
Initial Seller shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and
each of the Purchaser, the Initial Seller and the Originator hereby waives any
and all of its rights to assert any right of setoff, counterclaim or other
defense to the making of a payment due hereunder to the Originator, the Initial
Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be; provided, however; that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser hereby reserves any and all of its
rights to assert any such right of setoff, counterclaim or other defense against
the Originator or the Initial Seller with respect to the Purchase Price of
Receivables purchased from the Originator or the Initial Seller hereunder in the
ordinary course of the Purchaser's business.

     SECTION 10.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or
invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.10 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment or supplement
hereto or any waiver granted in connection herewith may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by the different parties on separate counterparts and
each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement.

     SECTION 10.11 Grant of License to Use Trademarks. For the sole purpose of
enabling the Purchaser (or its assignees) to perform the functions of servicing
and collecting the Purchased Receivables upon a Purchase Termination Event, each
of the Originator and the Initial Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser (or its
assignees) an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of

                                       29

similar rights or properties now owned or hereafter acquired by the Originator
and the Initial Seller, and wherever the same may be located, and including in
such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items
may be recorded or stored and to all computer and automatic machinery software
and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The aforementioned
servicing and collecting functions shall be performed in accordance with

affect any of such licenses or licensed items.

     SECTION 10.12 Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

     (a) The Originator, the Initial Seller and the Purchaser hereby submit to
the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any United States District Court for the

to, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby. The
Originator, the Initial Seller and the Purchaser hereby irrevocably waive, to
the fullest extent possible, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the
venue of any such proceeding and any claim that any such proceeding has been
brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing in this Section 10.12 shall affect the
right of the Trustee, any Enhancement Provider or any Noteholder to bring any
action or proceeding against the Originator, the Initial Seller and the
Purchaser or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

     (b) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT OF TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR
ANY MATTER ARISING THEREUNDER.

     SECTION 10.13 Third Party Beneficiaries. Each of the Secured Parties shall
be third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.14 Confirmation of Intent. It is the express intent of the
parties hereto that the sale to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof of
all of the Originator's and the Initial Seller's right, title and interest, in,
to and under (i) all Purchased Receivables now existing and hereafter arising,
all newly created Purchased Receivables and all rights (but not the obligations)
to, in and under the related Contract, (ii) all moneys due or to become due with
respect to the foregoing, (iii) all proceeds of the foregoing including, without
limitation, insurance proceeds relating thereto and (iv) all Recoveries on
account of Purchased Receivables, in each case shall be treated under applicable

Seller, as applicable, to the Purchaser. However, if it is determined contrary
to the express intent of the parties that the transfer is not a sale and that
all or any portion of the assets described in Section 2.1(a) continue to be
property of the Originator or the Initial Seller, then the Originator and the
Initial Seller hereby grant to the Purchaser a security interest in all of the
Originator's and the Initial Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under
all such assets and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law. The Originator, the Initial Seller, the Purchaser and the
Trustee shall, to the extent consistent with the Indenture and this Agreement,
take such action as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the assets described in Section 2.1(a),
such interest would be

                                       30

<PAGE>

deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable
law and will be maintained as such throughout the terms of this Agreement and
the Indenture.

     SECTION 10.15 [Reserved].

     SECTION 10.16 Section and Paragraph Headings. Section and paragraph
headings used in this Agreement are provided solely for convenience of reference
and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this
Agreement.

     SECTION 10.17 Interpretation. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
all warranties, covenants, indemnities and other obligations of "the Originator"
hereunder shall be the joint and several obligations of each Person which is an
Originator hereunder.

     SECTION 10.18 Interest. Without limitation to the express intent of the
parties set forth in the first sentence of Section 10.14, if the sales
contemplated under this Agreement are ever determined to constitute financing
arrangements, the parties hereto intend that Purchaser shall conform strictly to
usury laws applicable to it, if any. Accordingly, if the transactions
contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law, if any, then, in
that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any
other agreement entered into in connection with this Agreement, it is agreed as
follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under
applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by
Purchaser under this Agreement or under any other agreement entered into in
connection with this Agreement shall under no circumstances exceed the Highest
Lawful Rate and any excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore
paid, shall at the option of Purchaser be applied on the principal amount due
Purchaser or refunded by Purchaser to the Originator or the Initial Seller, as
applicable, and (ii) in the event that the maturity of any amount due is
accelerated or in the event of any prepayment or repurchase, then such
consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to Purchaser, may
never include more than the Highest Lawful Rate and excess interest, if any, to
Purchaser, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled
automatically as of the date of such acceleration, prepayment or repurchase and,
of theretofore paid, shall, at the option of Purchaser be credited by Purchaser
on the principal amount due to Purchaser or refunded by Purchaser to Originator
or the Initial Seller, as applicable. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to
Purchaser for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to
the extent permitted under applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and
spread throughout the full term of the payments until payment in full so that
the rate or amount of interest or account of such payments does not exceed the
applicable usury ceiling. To the extent that Section 339.004 of the Texas
Finance Code is relevant to the Purchasers for purposes of determining the
Highest Lawful Rate, Purchaser hereby elects to determine the applicable rate
ceiling under such Article by the indicated (weekly) rate ceiling from time to
time in effect, subject to Purchaser's right subsequently to change such method
in accordance with applicable law and it is the express intent of the parties
hereto that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code applies to all Sales occurring
under this Agreement.

pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement as adjusted from
time to time pursuant to Section 2.4 and 6.8 of the Receivables Purchase
Agreement (as the same may be increased or decreased from time to time), on the

Note" described in, and is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, the

Agreement"), between CFLP, as the Purchaser, and Conn Appliances, Inc., and CAI,
collectively as Originator, and Conn Funding I, L.P., as the Initial Seller.
Reference is hereby made to the Receivables Purchase Agreement for a statement
of certain other rights and obligations of CFLP and [Conn] [CAI]. In the case of
any conflict between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Receivables
Purchase Agreement, the terms of the Receivables Purchase Agreement shall

<PAGE>

     refunding thereof and together with any Series Supplement (the "Indenture")

outstanding on each day at a variable rate per annum equal to the prime rate as
reported by the Wall Street Journal from time to time.

     Section 1.04. Interest Payment Dates. Subject to the Subordination
Provisions, CFLP shall pay accrued interest on this Note on each Payment Date
and on the Final Maturity Date (or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the
next succeeding Business Day). CFLP also shall pay accrued interest on the

     Section 1.05. Basis of Computation. Interest accrued hereunder shall be

premium or penalty.

     Section 1.07. Subordination Provisions. CFLP covenants and agrees, and
[Conn] [CAI] and any other holder of this Note, by its acceptance of this Note,
likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of all Junior Liabilities is
hereby expressly subordinated in right of payment to the payment and performance
of the Senior Indebtedness to the extent and in the manner set forth in the
following clauses of this Section 1.07. To the extent this Section 1.07
conflicts with the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall
control.

     (a) No payment or other distribution of CFLP's assets of any kind or
character, whether in cash, securities, or other rights or property, shall be
made on account of this Note except to the extent such payment or other
distribution is (i) permitted under the Indenture and (ii) made pursuant to
Section 1.04 or 1.06 of this Note;

     (b) If an Event of Bankruptcy has occurred with respect to CFLP or the
Purchase Termination Date has occurred, then the Senior Indebtedness shall first
be paid and performed in full and in cash before [Conn] [CAI] or any other
holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or
distribution in respect of the Junior Liabilities. In order to implement the
foregoing: (x) all payments and distributions of any kind or character

                                      A-2

<PAGE>

in respect of the Junior Liabilities to which [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder
of this Note would be entitled except for this subsection 1.07(b) shall be made
directly to the Senior Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders);
and (y) [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note hereby irrevocably agrees
that the Senior Agent, in the name of [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this
Note or otherwise, may demand, sue for, collect, receive and receipt for any and
all such payments or distributions, and file, prove and vote or consent in any
such proceeding with respect to any and all claims of [Conn] [CAI] or any other
holder of this Note relating to the Junior Liabilities, in each case until the
Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash.

     (c) In the event that [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note
receives any payment or other distribution of any kind or character from CFLP or
from any other source whatsoever, in respect of the Junior Liabilities, other
than as expressly permitted by the terms of this Note, such payment or other
distribution shall be received in trust for the Senior Interest Holders and
shall be turned over by [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note to the
Senior Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) forthwith. All
payments and distributions received by the Senior Agent in respect of this Note,
to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by the Senior
Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) first to the payment of
any and all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and other legal expenses) paid or incurred by the Senior Agent
or the Senior Interest Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or
in endeavoring to collect or realize upon the Junior Liabilities, and any
balance thereof shall, solely as between [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of
this Note and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by the Senior Agent toward
the payment of the Senior Indebtedness in a manner determined by the Senior
Agent to be in accordance with the Indenture; but as between the Purchaser and
its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall
be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Indebtedness.

     (d) Upon the final payment in full and in cash of all Senior Indebtedness,
[Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note shall be subrogated to the rights
of the Senior Interest Holders to receive payments or distributions from CFLP
that are applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the Junior Liabilities are
paid in full.

     (e) These Subordination Provisions are intended solely for the purpose of
defining the relative rights of [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note,
on the one hand, and the Senior Interest Holders, on the other hand. Nothing
contained in the Subordination Provisions or elsewhere in this Note is intended
to or shall impair, as between CFLP, its creditors (other than the Senior
Interest Holders) and [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note, CFLP's
obligation, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay the Junior Liabilities
as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms
hereof and of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or to affect the relative
rights of [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note and creditors of CFLP
(other than the Senior Interest Holders).

     (f) [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note shall not, until the
Senior Indebtedness have been finally paid and performed in full and in cash,
(i) cancel, waive, forgive, transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to
enforce or collect, or subordinate to any obligation of CFLP, howsoever created,
arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute

                                      A-3

<PAGE>

or contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, other than
the Senior Indebtedness, the Junior Liabilities, or any rights in respect
thereof or (ii) convert the Junior Liabilities into an equity interest in the
Purchaser, unless, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, [Conn]
[CAI] or any other holder of this Note shall have received the prior written
consent of the Senior Agent in each case.

     (g) [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note shall not, without the
advance written consent of the Senior Agent, commence, or join with any other
Person in commencing, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any federal or state
bankruptcy or similar law, with respect to CFLP until at least one year and one
day shall have passed since the Senior Indebtedness shall have been finally paid
and performed in full and in cash.

     (h) If, at any time, any payment (in whole or in part) made with respect to
any Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must be restored or returned by a Senior
Interest Holder (whether in connection with any Event of Bankruptcy or
otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or
shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been
made.

     (i) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, to the
extent consistent with the Transaction Documents, at its sole discretion,
without notice to [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note, and without
waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all
of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property to
secure any of the Senior Indebtedness; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or
secondary obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of
the Senior Indebtedness; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether
or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior
Indebtedness, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect
to any of the Senior Indebtedness; (iv) amend, supplement, or otherwise modify
any Transaction Document; and (v) release its security interest in, or
surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of
any rights or property securing any of the Senior Indebtedness, or extend or
renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period),
or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any
obligor with respect to any such rights or property.

     (j) [Conn] [CAI] or any other holder of this Note hereby waives: (i) notice
of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest
Holders; (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance
of all or any of the Senior Indebtedness; and (iii) all diligence in
enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon the Senior
Indebtedness, or any thereof, or any security therefor.

     (k) These Subordination Provisions constitute a continuing offer from CFLP
to all Persons who become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior
Indebtedness; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the
Senior Interest Holders, and the Senior Agent may proceed to enforce such
provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.

     Section 1.08. Amendments, Etc. No failure or delay on the part of [Conn]
[CAI] or any other holder of this Note in exercising any power or right
hereunder shall operate as a

                                      A-4

<PAGE>

waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or
right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other power or right. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with
respect to, any provision of this Note shall in any event be effective unless
(a) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by CFLP and [Conn]
[CAI] or any other holder of this Note, and (b) all consents required for such
actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the
appropriate Persons.

     Section 1.09. Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Note
to the contrary, CFLP shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any
amount outstanding hereunder, and shall never be required to pay interest on the
principal amount outstanding hereunder, at a rate in excess of the maximum
interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received without violating
applicable federal or state law.

     Section 1.10. No Negotiation. This Note is not negotiable.

     Section 1.11. Governing Law. THIS NOTE SHALL GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF TEXAS WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF
LAWS PRINCIPLES.

     Section 1.12. Captions. Paragraph captions used in this Note are provided
solely for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of any provision of this Note.

              PERFECTION REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the
Purchase Agreement, the Originator hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to
the Trustee as follows on the Closing Date:

                                     General

1. The Purchase Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as
defined in the applicable UCC) in the Purchased Receivables in favor of the
Purchaser, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is
enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Originator.

2. The Purchased Receivables constitute "accounts", "tangible chattel paper" or
"electronic chattel paper" within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the
States of Texas and New York.

3. The Trust Accounts constitute either a deposit account or a securities
account within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the States of Texas and
New York.

                                    Creation

4. The Originator owns and has good and marketable title to the Purchased
Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person,
excepting only liens for taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges or
levies incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and
payable or as to which any applicable grace period shall not have expired, or
that are being contested in good faith by proper proceedings and for which
adequate reserves have been established, but only so long as foreclosure with
respect to such a lien is not imminent and the use and value of the property to
which the Lien attaches is not impaired during the pendency of such proceeding.

                                   Perfection:

5. The Originator has caused or will have caused, within ten days after the
effective date of the Purchase Agreement, the filing of all appropriate
financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate
jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the sale of the Purchased
Receivables from the Originator to the Purchaser, and the security interest in
the Purchased Receivables granted to the Trustee under the Indenture; and
Servicer has in its possession the original copies of such instruments,
certificated securities or tangible chattel paper that constitute or evidence
the Purchased Receivables, and all financing statements referred to in this
paragraph contain a statement that: "A purchase of or security interest in any
collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the
Trustee."

                                 Schedule VII-1

<PAGE>

6. With respect to Purchased Receivables that constitute tangible chattel paper,
either:

     (i) All original executed copies of each such tangible chattel paper have
     been delivered to the Trustee;

     (ii)(A) Such tangible chattel paper is in the possession of the Custodian
     and the Trustee has received a written acknowledgment from the Custodian
     that the Custodian is holding such tangible chattel paper solely on behalf
     and for the benefit of the Trustee; (B) the Originator has marked on or
     before the date that is sixty (60) days after the Initial Closing Date the
     authoritative copy of each Contract or lease that constitutes or evidences
     the Receivables with a legend to the following effect: "[Conn Appliances,
     Inc.][CAI, L.P.] has sold all its rights and interest herein to Conn
     Funding II, L.P."; and (C) such Contracts or leases do not have any other
     marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or
     otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Purchaser; or

     (iii) A third party custodian received possession of such instruments or
     tangible chattel paper after the Trustee received a written acknowledgment
     from such custodian that such custodian is acting solely as agent of the
     Trustee;

7. With respect to Receivables that constitute electronic chattel paper, either:

     (a) The Originator has caused, or will have caused within ten days of the
effective date of the Purchase Agreement, the filing of financing statement
against the Originator in favor of the Purchaser in connection herewith
describing such Receivables and containing a statement that: "A purchase of or
security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will
violate the rights of the Purchaser and the Trustee"; or

     (b) All of the following are true:

          (i) Only one authoritative copy of each such Contract or lease exists;
     and each such authoritative copy (A) is unique, identifiable and
     unalterable (other than with the participation of the Purchaser and the
     Trustee in the case of an addition or amendment of an identified assignee
     and other than a revision that is readily identifiable as an authorized or
     unauthorized revision), (B) has been marked with a legend to the following
     effect: "Authoritative Copy" and (C) has been communicated to and is
     maintained by the Trustee or a custodian who has acknowledged in writing
     that it is maintaining the authoritative copy of each electronic chattel
     paper solely on behalf of and for the benefit of the Purchaser (or the
     Trustee), or is acting solely as its agent; and

          (ii) the Originator has marked the authoritative copy of each Contract
     or lease that constitutes or evidences the Receivables with a legend to the
     following effect: "[Conn Appliances, Inc.][CAI, L.P.] has sold all its
     rights and interest herein to Conn Funding II, L.P." Such Contract or
     leases do not have any other marks or notations indicating that they have
     been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the
     Purchaser or the Trustee; and

                                 Schedule VII-2

<PAGE>

          (iii) the Originator has marked all copies of each Contract or lease
     that constitute or evidence the Receivables other than the authoritative
     copy with a legend to the following effect: "This is not an authoritative
     copy"; and

          (iv) The records evidencing the Receivables have been established in a
     manner such that (a) all copies or revisions that add or change an
     identified assignee of the authoritative copy of each such electronic
     chattel paper must be made with the participation of the Purchaser or the
     Trustee and (b) all revisions of the authoritative copy of each such
     electronic chattel paper must be readily identifiable as an authorized or
     unauthorized revision.

                                    Priority

8. Other than the transfer of the Purchased Receivables to the Purchaser under
the Purchase Agreement, the Originator has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted
a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Purchased Receivables
or the Trust Accounts. The Originator has not authorized the filing of, or is
aware of any financing statements against the Originator that include a
description of collateral covering the Purchased Receivables or the Trust
Accounts other than those that have been released and any financing statement
relating to the sale of the Purchased Receivables to the Purchaser, relating to
the security interest granted to the Trustee under the Indenture or that has
been terminated.

9. The Originator is not aware of any judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings
against the Originator.

10. Neither the Originator nor a custodian holding any Collateral that is
electronic chattel paper has communicated an authoritative copy of any loan
agreement or lease that constitutes or evidences the Receivables to any Person
other than the Purchaser or the Trustee.

11. None of the tangible chattel paper or electronic chattel paper that
constitutes or evidences the Purchased Receivables has any marks or notations
indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any
Person other than the Purchaser, other than the security interest assigned to
the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

12. Survival of Perfection Representations. Notwithstanding any other provision
of the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Perfection
Representations contained in this Schedule shall be continuing, and remain in
full force and effect (notwithstanding any replacement of the Servicer or

Obligations under the Indenture have been finally and fully paid and performed.

13. No Waiver. The Purchaser shall not, without satisfying the Rating Agency
Condition, waive any of the Perfection Representations.

that, unless otherwise provided for in a related Series Supplement, the
Enhancement provided for any Series shall not be available for any other Series)
without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time or
times of authentication and delivery, all in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Base Indenture and the related Series Supplement. If
specified in the Series Supplement for any Series, the related Notes shall be
issued upon initial issuance as a single note as described in Section 2.16 in an
original principal amount equal to the Investor Interest of such Series and
Class. The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and
delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. Each Series of Notes shall be
issued in the minimum denominations set forth in the related Series Supplement.

     Section 2.2.   New Series Issuances. The Notes may be issued in one or more
Series. Each Series of Notes shall be created by a Series Supplement.

          (a)  The Issuer may effect the issuance of one or more Series of Notes
on or after the Initial Closing Date (a "New Series Issuance") from time to time
by notifying the Trustee in writing at least three (3) days in advance (a "New
Series Issuance Notice") of the date upon which the New Series Issuance is to
occur (a "New Series Issuance Date"). Any New Series Issuance Notice shall state
the designation of any Series (and each Class thereof, if applicable) to be
issued on the New Series Issuance Date and, with respect to each such Series:
(a) its Initial Investor Interest (or the method for calculating such Initial
Investor Interest), which, at any time, may not be greater than the Issuer
Interest at such time (taking into account any Subsequently Purchased
Receivables that the Issuer will purchase with the proceeds of such New Series
Issuance) minus the highest Minimum Issuer Interest specified in the Series
Supplement for any outstanding Series, (b) the aggregate initial outstanding
principal amount of the Notes thereof (or the method for calculating such
amount), and (c) the Enhancement Provider, if any, with respect to such Series.
On the related New Series Issuance Date, the Issuer shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver any such Series of Notes only upon
delivery to it of the following:

          (i)    an Issuer Order authorizing and directing the authentication
     and delivery of the Notes of such new Series by the Trustee and specifying
     the designation of such new Series and the aggregate principal amount of
     Notes of such new Series (and each Class thereof) to be authenticated with
     respect to such new Series;

          (ii)   a Series Supplement in form reasonably satisfactory to the
     Trustee executed by the Issuer and the Trustee and specifying the Principal
     Terms of such new Series;

          (iii)  the related Enhancement, if any;

          (iv)   the related Enhancement Agreement, if any, executed by each of
     the parties thereto, other than the Trustee;

          (v)    unless otherwise specified in the related Series Supplement, a
     Tax Opinion with respect to the issuance of such Series, subject to the
     assumptions and qualifications stated therein, and in a form substantially
     acceptable to the Trustee, dated the applicable New Series Issuance Date;

          (vi)   written consent from each Notice Person and written
     confirmation that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied
     with respect to such issuance;

                                       34

<PAGE>

          (vii)  a Conn Officer's Certificate of the Issuer that on such New
     Series Issuance Date, after giving effect to such New Series Issuance, the
     Issuer Interest would be at least equal to the highest Minimum Issuer
     Interest of any outstanding Series;

          (viii) evidence that each of the parties to the Transaction Documents
     (other than any Series Supplement, Enhancement Agreement or other
     Transaction Document relating solely to another Series of Notes) has
     covenanted and agreed that, prior to the date which is one year and one day
     after the payment in full of the latest maturing Note, it will not
     institute against, or join with any other Person in instituting against,
     the Issuer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
     liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings, under any Federal or state
     bankruptcy or similar law;

          (ix)   an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably
     satisfactory to the Trustee as to the Trustee's Lien in and to the Trust
     Estate;

          (x)    evidence (which, in the case of the filing of financing
     statements on form UCC-1, may be telephonic, followed by prompt written
     confirmation) that the Issuer has delivered the Trust Estate to the Trustee
     and has caused all filings (including filing of financing statements on
     form UCC-1) and recordings to be accomplished as may be reasonably required
     by law to establish, perfect, protect and preserve the rights, titles,
     interests, remedies, powers and security interest of the Trustee in the
     Trust Estate for the benefit of the Secured Parties;

          (xi)   any consents required pursuant to Section 13.1 or otherwise;
     and

          (xii)  such other documents, instruments, certifications, agreements
     or other items as the Trustee may reasonably require.

Upon satisfaction of such conditions, the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, as provided above, such Series of Notes, and a corresponding reduction
in the Issuer Interest will result. There is no limit to the number of New
Series Issuances that may be performed under the Indenture.

          (b)  In conjunction with each New Series Issuance, the parties hereto
shall execute a Series Supplement, which shall specify the relevant terms with
respect to any newly issued Series of Notes, which may include without
limitation, as applicable: (i) its name or designation, (ii) the initial
aggregate principal amount of Notes of such Series or a method for calculating
the principal and a method for determining principal for any Series with a
variable principal amount, (iii) the Initial Investor Interest or a method for
calculating the Initial Investor Interest and a method for determining any
adjusted Investor Interest, (iv) the portion of the Trust Estate to be allocated
with respect to such Series and the provisions governing such allocations, (v)
the Note Rate (or the method for calculating such Note Rate) with respect to
such Series, (vi) the Closing Date, (vii) each Rating Agency, if any, rating
such Series, (viii) the name of the

                                       35

<PAGE>

Clearing Agency, if any, (ix) the rights of the Issuer that have been
transferred to the Holders of such Series pursuant to such New Series Issuance
(including any rights to allocations of Collections of Finance Charges,
Principal Receivables and Recoveries), (x) the Interest Period, the interest
payment date or dates and the date or dates from which interest shall accrue,
(xi) the periods during which or dates on which principal will be paid or
accrued, (xii) the method of allocating Collections with respect to Principal
Receivables for such Series and, if applicable, with respect to other Series and
the method by which the principal amount of Notes of such Series shall amortize
or accrete and the method for allocating Collections with respect to Finance
Charges and Recoveries, (xiii) any other Collections with respect to Receivables
or other amounts available to be paid with respect to such Series, (xiv) the
names of any Series Accounts and the terms governing the operation of any such
account and use of moneys therein, (xv) the Servicing Fee and Trustee and
Back-Up Servicer Fees and Expenses allocation, (xvi) the Minimum Issuer Interest

respect to such Series and the Enhancement Provider, (xviii) the Group, if any,
applicable to such Series, (xix) the terms on which the Notes of such Series may
be repurchased, refinanced, defeased or remarketed to other investors, (xx) any
deposit into any Series Account, (xxi) the number of Classes of such Series, and
if more than one Class, the rights and priorities of each such Class, including
the method of allocating Collections among such Classes, (xxii) the extent to
which the Notes will be issuable in temporary or permanent global form, (xxiii)
whether the Notes may be issued in bearer form and any limitations imposed
thereon, (xxiv) the subordination, if any, of such Series with respect to any
other Series, (xxv) whether such Series will or may be a Companion Series and
the Series with which it will be paired, (xxvi) transfer restrictions applicable
to Notes of such Series and (xxvii) any other relevant terms of such Series of
Notes (all such terms, the "Principal Terms" of such Series).

          (c)  The terms of such Series Supplement may modify or amend the terms
of this Indenture solely as applied to such new Series. If on the date of the
issuance of such Series there is issued and outstanding one or more Series of
Notes and no Series of Notes is currently rated by a Rating Agency, then as a
condition to such New Series Issuance a nationally recognized investment banking
firm or commercial bank shall also deliver to the Trustee an officer's
certificate stating, in substance, that the New Series Issuance will not have an
adverse effect on the timing or distribution of payments to such other Series of
Notes then issued and outstanding.

     Section 2.3.   [Reserved].

     Section 2.4.   Execution and Authentication.

          (a)  Each Note shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature by
the Issuer. Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of the individual
who was, at the time when such signature was affixed, authorized to sign on
behalf of the Issuer shall not be rendered invalid, notwithstanding that such
individual has ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and
delivery of such Notes or does not hold such office at the date of such Notes.

                                       36

<PAGE>

Unless otherwise provided in the related Series Supplement, no Notes shall be
entitled to any benefit under this Indenture, or be valid for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially
in the form provided for herein, duly executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by
the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory (and the Luxembourg agent
(the "Luxembourg Agent"), if such Notes are listed on Luxembourg Stock
Exchange), and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and
the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder.

          (b)  Pursuant to Section 2.2, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver a Series of Notes having the terms specified in
the related Series Supplement, upon the written order of the Issuer, to the
purchasers thereof, the underwriters for sale or to the Issuer for initial
retention by it. If specified in the related Series Supplement for any Series,
the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the
Global Note that is issued upon original issuance thereof, upon the written
order of the Issuer, to the Depository against payment of the purchase price
therefor. If specified in the related Series Supplement for any Series, the
Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Book-Entry Notes that
are issued upon original issuance thereof, upon the written order of the Issuer,
to a Clearing Agency or its nominee as provided in Section 2.16 against payment
of the purchase price thereof.

          (c)  All Notes shall be dated and issued as of the date of their
authentication except Bearer Notes which shall be dated the applicable issuance
date as provided in the related Series Supplement.

          (d)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer,
and the Issuer shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation as
provided in Section 2.13 together with a written statement (which need not
comply with Section 15.1 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel)
stating that such Note has never been issued and sold by the Issuer, for all
purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been
authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture.

     Section 2.5.   Authenticating Agent.

          (a)  The Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents with
respect to the Notes which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee
in authenticating the Notes in connection with the issuance, delivery,
registration of transfer, exchange or repayment of the Notes. Whenever reference
is made in this Indenture to the authentication of Notes by the Trustee or the
Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
authenticating agent. Each authenticating agent must be acceptable to the
Issuer.

                                       37

<PAGE>

          (b)  Any institution succeeding to the corporate agency business of an
authenticating agent shall continue to be an authenticating agent without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or such authenticating agent.

          (c)  An authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written
notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Issuer. The Trustee may at any
time terminate the agency of an authenticating agent by giving notice of
termination to such authenticating agent and to the Issuer. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time an
authenticating agent shall cease to be acceptable to the Trustee or the Issuer,
the Trustee promptly may appoint a successor authenticating agent. Any successor
authenticating agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become
vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with
like effect as if originally named as an authenticating agent.

          (d)  The Issuer agrees to pay each authenticating agent from time to
time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 2.5.

          (e)  Pursuant to an appointment made under this Section 2.5, the Notes
may have endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of
authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the
following form:

     This is one of the certificates described in the Indenture.

                        [Name of Authenticating Agent],

                        as Authenticating Agent
                         for the Trustee,

                        By:
                           ----------------------------
                           Responsible Officer

     Section 2.6.   Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.

          (a)  (i) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the office or agency to
be maintained by a transfer agent and registrar (the "Transfer Agent and
Registrar"), in accordance with the provisions of subsection 2.6(c) and the
Bearer Rules, a register (the "Note Register") in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Transfer Agent and Registrar
shall provide for the registration of the Notes of each Series (unless otherwise
provided in the related Series Supplement) and registrations of transfers and
exchanges of the Notes as herein provided. The Trustee is hereby initially
appointed Transfer Agent and Registrar for the purposes of registering the Notes
and transfers and exchanges of the Notes as herein provided. If a Person other
than the Trustee is appointed by the Issuer as Transfer Agent and Registrar, the
Issuer will give the Trustee prompt written notice of the appointment of such
Transfer Agent and

                                       38

<PAGE>

Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location, of the Note
Register, and the Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at
all reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof, and the Trustee shall have
the right to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Transfer Agent
and Registrar by a Responsible Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of
the Holders of the Notes and the principal amounts and number of such Notes. If
any form of Note is issued as a Global Note, the Trustee may, or if and so long
as any Series of Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, and such
exchange shall so require, the Trustee shall appoint a co-transfer agent and
co-registrar in Luxembourg or another European city. Any reference in this
Indenture to the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall include any co-transfer
agent and co-registrar unless the context otherwise requires. The Trustee shall
be permitted to resign as Transfer Agent and Registrar upon thirty (30) days'
written notice to the Servicer and the Issuer. In the event that the Trustee
shall no longer be the Transfer Agent and Registrar, the Issuer shall appoint a
successor Transfer Agent and Registrar.

          (ii)   Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at any
office or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar, if the requirements of
Section 8-401(1) of the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, subject to the
provisions of subsection 2.6(b), and the Trustee shall authenticate and (unless
the Transfer Agent and Registrar is different than the Trustee, in which case
the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall) deliver and the Noteholder shall obtain
from the Trustee, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one
or more new Notes in authorized denominations of like aggregate principal
amount; provided, that the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to
Bearer Notes.

          (iii)  All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange
of Notes shall be valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered
upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

          (iv)   At the option of any Holder of Registered Notes, Registered
Notes may be exchanged for other Registered Notes of the same Series of the same
Class in authorized denominations of like aggregate principal amounts in the
manner specified in the Series Supplement for such Series, upon surrender of the
Registered Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Transfer Agent
and Registrar maintained for such purpose. Registered Notes may not be exchanged
for Bearer Notes. At the option of any Holder of Bearer Notes, subject to
applicable laws and regulations (including without limitation, the Bearer
Rules), Bearer Notes may be exchanged for other Bearer Notes or Registered Notes
of the same Series of the same Class in authorized denominations of like
aggregate principal amounts, in the manner specified in the Series Supplement
for such Series, upon surrender of the Bearer Notes to be exchanged at an office
or agency of the Transfer Agent and Registrar located outside the United States.
Each Bearer Note surrendered pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall have attached
thereto (or be accompanied by) all unmatured Coupons, provided that any Bearer
Note so surrendered after the close of business on the Record Date preceding the
relevant Payment Date after the related Series Termination Date need not have
attached the Coupons relating to such Payment Date.

                                       39

<PAGE>

          (v)    Whenever any Notes of any Series are so surrendered for
exchange, if the requirements of Section 8-401(1) of the UCC are met the Issuer
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and (unless the Transfer Agent
and Registrar is different than the Trustee, in which case the Transfer Agent
and Registrar shall) deliver and the Noteholders shall obtain from the Trustee,
the Notes of such Series which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive. Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar duly executed
by the Noteholder thereof or his attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing.

          (vi)   The preceding provisions of this Section 2.6 notwithstanding,
the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, shall not
be required to register the exchange of any Global Note of any Series for a
Definitive Note or the transfer of or exchange any Note of any Series for a
period of five (5) Business Days preceding the due date for any payment with
respect to the Notes of such Series or during the period beginning on any Record
Date and ending on the next following Payment Date.

          (vii)  Unless otherwise provided in the related Series Supplement, no
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes, but the Transfer Agent and 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 Notes.

          (viii) All Notes (together with any Coupons attached to Bearer Notes)
surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be cancelled by the
Transfer Agent and Registrar and disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the
Trustee. The Trustee shall cancel and destroy any Global Note upon its exchange
in full for Definitive Notes and shall deliver a certificate of destruction to
the Issuer. Such certificate shall also state that a certificate or certificates
of each Foreign Clearing Agency to the effect referred to in Section 2.19 was
received with respect to each portion of the Global Note exchanged for
Definitive Notes.

          (ix)   Upon written direction, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee
or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as applicable, Bearer Notes and Registered
Notes in such amounts and at such times as are necessary to enable the Trustee
to fulfill its responsibilities under this Indenture and the Notes.

          (x)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.6, the
typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes for any Series may be
transferred, in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency for such Series, or to a successor Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency for such Series selected or approved by the
Issuer or to a nominee of such successor Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing
Agency, only if in accordance with this Section 2.6.

                                       40

<PAGE>

          (xi)   If the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, the
Trustee or the Luxembourg Agent, as the case may be, shall send to the Issuer
upon any transfer or exchange of any Note information reflected in the copy of
the register for the Notes maintained by the Registrar or the Luxembourg Agent,
as the case may be.

          (xii)  By its acceptance of a Note, each Noteholder and Note Owner
shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that either (i) it is not
acquiring the Note with the assets of a benefit plan subject to ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code, or (ii) its purchase and holding of the Note will not,
throughout the term of its holding an interest therein, constitute a non-exempt
"prohibited transaction" under Section 406(a) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code.

          (b)  Unless otherwise provided in the related Series Supplement,
registration of transfer of Registered Notes containing a legend relating to the
restrictions on transfer of such Registered Notes (which legend shall be set
forth in the Series Supplement relating to such Notes) shall be effected only if
the conditions set forth in such related Series Supplement are satisfied.

     Whenever a Registered Note containing the legend set forth in the related
Series Supplement is presented to the Transfer Agent and Registrar for
registration of transfer, the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall promptly seek
instructions from the Issuer regarding such transfer. The Transfer Agent and
Registrar and the Trustee shall be entitled to receive written instructions
signed by a Responsible Officer prior to registering any such transfer or
authenticating new Registered Notes, as the case may be. The Issuer hereby
agrees to indemnify the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee and to hold
each of them harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without
negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with
actions taken or omitted by them in reliance on any such written instructions
furnished pursuant to this subsection 2.6(b).

          (c)  The Transfer Agent and Registrar will maintain at its expense in
the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York (and subject to this Section 2.6,
if specified in the related Series Supplement for any Series, any other city
designated in such Series Supplement) an office or offices or an agency or
agencies where Notes of such Series may be surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange (except that Bearer Notes may not be surrendered for
exchange at any such office or agency in the United States, but may be
surrendered for exchange at such office or agency outside the United States as
shall be specified in the related Supplement). For purposes of this subsection
2.6(c), "United States" includes Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the
Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, Wake Island and American Samoa.

     Section 2.7.   Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make
payments to the Secured Parties from the appropriate account or accounts
maintained for the benefit of the Secured Parties as specified in this Base
Indenture or the related Series Supplement for any Series pursuant to Articles 5
and 6. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to

                                       41

<PAGE>

withdraw funds from such appropriate account or accounts for the purpose of
making distributions referred to above. The Trustee (or the Servicer on behalf
of the Issuer if the Trustee is the Paying Agent) may revoke such power and
remove the Paying Agent, if the Trustee (or the Servicer on behalf of the Issuer
if the Trustee is the Paying Agent) determines in its sole discretion that the
Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Indenture
in any material respect or for other good cause. The Trustee (or the Servicer on
behalf of the Issuer if the Trustee is the Paying Agent) shall notify each
Rating Agency of the removal of any Paying Agent. The Paying Agent, unless the
Series Supplement with respect to any Series states otherwise, shall initially
be the Trustee. The Trustee shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon
thirty (30) days' written notice to the Servicer on behalf of the Issuer. In the
event that the Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent, the Trustee shall
appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust
company).

     If specified in the related Series Supplement for any Series, so long as
the Notes of such Series are outstanding, the Issuer shall maintain a co-paying
agent in New York City (for Registered Notes only) or any other city designated
in such Series Supplement which, if and so long as any Series of Notes is listed
on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or other stock exchange and such exchange so
requires, shall be in Luxembourg or the location required by such other stock
exchange. Any reference in this Indenture to the Paying Agent shall include any
co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise. For so long as any Bearer
Notes are outstanding, the Issuer shall maintain a Paying Agent and a Transfer
Agent and Registrar outside the United States (as defined in subsection 2.6(c)).

     Section 2.8.   Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

          (a)  The Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
shall agree with the Trustee (and if the Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby
so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent
will:

          (i)    hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with
     respect to the Issuer Obligations in trust for the benefit of the Persons
     entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
     disposed of as provided herein and in the applicable Series Supplement and
     pay such sums to such Persons as provided herein and in the applicable
     Series Supplement;

          (ii)   give the Trustee written notice of any default by the Issuer
     (or any other obligor under the Issuer Obligations) of which it (or, in the
     case of the Trustee, a Trust Officer) has actual knowledge in the making of
     any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

                                       42

<PAGE>

          (iii)  at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon
     the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums
     so held in trust by such Paying Agent;

          (iv)   immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the
     Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of the Issuer
     Obligations if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be
     met by a Trustee hereunder; and

          (v)    comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the
     withholding from any payments made by it on any Issuer Obligations of any
     applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any
     applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

          (b)  The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by
such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as
those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment
by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all
further liability with respect to such money.

          (c)  Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any
money held by the Trustee, any Paying Agent or any Clearing Agency in trust for
the payment of any amount due with respect to any Issuer Obligation and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable
shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request;
and the holder of such Issuer Obligation shall thereafter, as an unsecured
general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the
extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Trustee,
such Paying Agent or such Clearing Agency with respect to such trust money shall
thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee, such Paying Agent or such
Clearing Agency, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the
expense of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in
the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general
circulation in New York City and, if the related Series of Notes has been listed
on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, and if the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so
requires, in a newspaper customarily published on each Luxembourg business day
and of general circulation in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, notice that such
money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall
not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The
Trustee may also adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuer, any other
reasonable means of notification of such repayment.

     OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE
     UNITED STATES AND ANY OTHER JURISDICTION AND BASED ON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
     IF THE ISSUER AND THE TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR SO REQUEST, IN EACH CASE
     IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INDENTURE AND ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY

     Section 2.10.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.

          (a)  If (i) any mutilated Note (together, in the case of Bearer Notes,
with all unmatured Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto) is surrendered to the
Transfer Agent and Registrar, or the Transfer Agent and Registrar receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and
(ii) there is delivered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold the Transfer Agent and
Registrar and the Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and provided
that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC (which generally permit the
Issuer to impose reasonable requirements) are met, the Issuer shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate and (unless the Transfer Agent and Registrar is
different from the Trustee, in which case the Transfer Agent and Registrar
shall) deliver (in compliance with applicable law), in exchange for or in lieu
of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of
like tenor and aggregate principal balance; provided, however, that if any such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or
within seven (7) days shall be due and payable or shall have been called for
redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable without surrender thereof.

     If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed,
lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona
fide purchaser for value of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement
Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the
Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment)
from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement
Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any
assignee of such Person, except a bona fide purchaser for value, 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 Issuer or the
Trustee in connection therewith.

          (b)  Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this
Section 2.10, the Transfer Agent and Registrar or the Trustee may require the
payment by the Holder of such Note 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 Trustee and the
Transfer Agent and Registrar) connected therewith.

          (c)  Any duplicate Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of contractual debt obligation of
the Issuer, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Note shall be found at any time.

          (d)  Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.10 in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original additional Contractual Obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note

                                       45

<PAGE>

shall be at any time enforceable by anyone and shall be entitled to all the
benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Notes duly issued hereunder.

          (e)  The provisions of this Section 2.10 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 Notes.

     Section 2.11.  Temporary Notes.

          (a)  Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes, the Issuer may
request and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate and
deliver temporary Notes of such Series. Temporary Notes shall be substantially
in the form of Definitive Notes of like Series but may have variations that are
not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture as the officers executing such
Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

          (b)  If temporary Notes are issued pursuant to subsection 2.11(a)
above, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary
Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary
Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in
Section 8.2, without charge to the Noteholder. Upon surrender for cancellation
of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and at the Issuer's
request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like
principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so
exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

     Section 2.12.  Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Note
for registration of transfer, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat a Person in
whose name any Note is registered (as of any date of determination) as the owner
of the related Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal and
interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever whether or
not such Note be overdue, and neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by
any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that in determining whether the
requisite number of Holders of Notes have given any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder (including under
any Series Supplement), Notes owned by any of the Issuer, the Sellers, the
Initial Seller, the Servicer or any Affiliate controlled by or controlling Conn
shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in
determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Notes
which a Trust Officer in the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee knows to be
so owned shall be so disregarded.

     In the case of a Bearer Note, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Transfer
Agent and Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the holder of a
Bearer Note or Coupon as the

                                       46

<PAGE>

owner of such Bearer Note or Coupon for the purpose of receiving distributions
and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee, the Paying
Agent, the Transfer Agent and Registrar nor any agent of any of them shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary.

     Section 2.13.  Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly
cancelled by the Trustee. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which
the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so
delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in
this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled
Notes may be held or disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its standard
retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall
direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to it; provided
that such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed
of by the Trustee. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee
any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.

     Section 2.14.  Release of Trust Estate. The Trustee shall (a) in
connection with any removal of Removed Receivables from the Trust Estate,
release the portion of the Trust Estate securing the Removed Receivables from
the Lien created by this Indenture upon receipt of a Conn Officer's Certificate
certifying that the Outstanding Principal Balance with respect thereto has been
deposited into the Collection Account and (b) on or after the Indenture
Termination Date, release any remaining portion of the Trust Estate from the
Lien created by this Indenture and in each case deposit in the Collection
Account any funds then on deposit in any other Trust Account upon receipt of a
Issuer Request accompanied by a Conn Officer's Certificate, and Independent
Certificates (if this Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA) in
accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) meeting the applicable
requirements of Section 15.1.

     Section 2.15.  Payment of Principal and Interest.

          (a)  The principal of each Series of Notes shall be payable at the
times and in the amounts set forth in the related Series Supplement and in
accordance with Section 8.1.

          (b)  Each Series of Notes shall accrue interest as provided in the
related Series Supplement and such interest shall be payable at the times and in
the amounts set forth in the related Series Supplement and in accordance with
Section 8.1.

          (c)  Any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any
Note which is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer on the
applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is
registered at the close of business on any Record Date with respect to a Payment
Date for such Note and such Person shall be entitled to receive the

                                       47

<PAGE>

principal and interest payable on such Payment Date notwithstanding the
cancellation of such Note upon any registration of transfer, exchange or
substitution of such Note subsequent to such Record Date, by check mailed
first-class, postage prepaid, to such Person's address as it appears on the Note
Register on such Record Date or, if the related investor has provided the
Trustee wiring instructions at least three (3) Business Days prior to the
related Payment Date, then by wire transfer in immediately available funds to
the account designated by the Holder of such Note, except that, unless
Definitive Notes have been issued pursuant to Section 2.18, with respect to
Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment will be made by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee and except for the final installment of principal payable with respect
to such Note on a Payment Date or on the Legal Final Payment Date (and except
for the Redemption Price for any Note called for redemption pursuant to Section
14.1) which shall be payable as provided herein; except that, any interest
payable at maturity shall be paid to the Person to whom the principal of such
Note is payable. The funds represented by any such checks returned undelivered
shall be held in accordance with Section 2.8.

     Section 2.16.  Book-Entry Notes.

          (a)  If provided in the related Series Supplement, the Notes of such
Series, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of Book-Entry Notes,
to be delivered to the depository specified in such Series Supplement (the
"Depository,") which shall be the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency, by
or on behalf of such Series. The Notes of each Series issued as Book-Entry Notes
shall, unless otherwise provided in the related Series Supplement, initially be
registered on the Note Register in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency. Unless otherwise provided in a related Series
Supplement, no Note Owner of Notes issued as Book-Entry Notes will receive a
definitive note representing such Note Owner's interest in the related Series of
Notes, except as provided in Section 2.18.

          (b)  For each Series of Notes to be issued in registered form, the
Issuer shall duly execute, and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.4
hereof, authenticate and deliver initially, unless otherwise provided in the
applicable Series Supplement, one or more Global Notes that shall be registered
on the Note Register in the name of a Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency
or such Clearing Agency's or Foreign Clearing Agency's nominee. Each Global Note
registered in the name of DTC or its nominee shall bear a legend substantially
to the following effect:

     UNLESS THIS NOTE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
     DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION, TO CONN FUNDING II, L.P.
     OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY
     NOTE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. ("CEDE") OR SUCH OTHER
     NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY
     PAYMENT

                                       48

<PAGE>

     HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
     AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF
     FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED
     OWNER HEREOF, CEDE, HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

     So long as the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency or its nominee is
the registered owner or holder of a Global Note, the Clearing Agency or Foreign
Clearing Agency or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole
owner or holder of the Notes represented by such Global Note for purposes of
this Indenture and such Notes. Members of, or participants in, the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency shall have no rights under this Indenture with
respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Clearing Agency or
Foreign Clearing Agency, and the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency may
be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any agent of such entities
as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the
Trustee, any Agent and any agent of such entities from giving effect to any
written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency or impair, as between the Clearing Agency or
Foreign Clearing Agency and its agent members, the operation of customary
practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note.

          (c)  Subject to paragraph 2.6(a)(xi), the provisions of the
"Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System" and the "Terms and Conditions
Governing Use of Euroclear" and such procedures governing the use of such
Clearing Agencies as may be enacted from time to time shall be applicable to a
Global Note insofar as interests in such Global Note are held by the agent
members of Euroclear or Clearstream (which shall only occur in the case of a
temporary Regulation S Global Note and a permanent Regulation S Global Note).
Account holders or participants in Euroclear and Clearstream shall have no
rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Note and the registered
holder may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any agent of the
Issuer or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Note for all purposes
whatsoever.

          (d)  Title to the Notes shall pass only by registration in the Note
Register maintained by the Transfer Agent and Registrar pursuant to Section 2.6.

          (e)  Any typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes shall
provide that they represent the aggregate or a specified amount of outstanding
Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate
amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be
increased or reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a typewritten Note
or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes to reflect the amount, or any increase or
decrease in the amount, or changes in the rights of Note Owners represented
thereby, shall be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be
specified therein or in the Issuer Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant
to subsection 2.4(b). The Trustee

                                       49

<PAGE>

shall deliver and redeliver any typewritten Note or Notes representing
Book-Entry Notes in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or
Persons specified therein or in the applicable Issuer Order. Any instructions by
the Issuer with respect to endorsement or delivery or redelivery of a
typewritten Note or Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes shall be in writing
but need not comply with Section 13.3 hereof and need not be accompanied by an
Opinion of Counsel.

          (f)  Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes of any Series
or any Class thereof ("Definitive Notes") have been issued to Note Owners with
respect to any Series of Notes initially issued as Book-Entry Notes pursuant to
Section 2.18 or the applicable Series Supplement:

          (i)    the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall be in full force and
     effect with respect to each such Series;

          (ii)   the Issuer, the Sellers, the Servicer, the Paying Agent, the
     Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing
     Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for
     all purposes of this Indenture (including the making of payments on the
     Notes of each such Series and the giving of instructions or directions
     hereunder) as the authorized representatives of such Note Owners;

          (iii)  to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.16 conflict
     with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section
     2.16 shall control;

          (iv)   whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken
     based upon instructions or directions of Holders of such Series of Notes
     evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding principal amount of
     such Series of Notes, the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency, as
     applicable, shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent
     that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or
     their related Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing,
     respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in such
     Series of Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Trustee;

          (v)    the rights of Note Owners of each such Series shall be
     exercised only through the Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and
     their related Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those
     established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the related
     Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency
     Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement applicable to a Series,
     unless and until Definitive Notes of such Series are issued pursuant to
     Section 2.18, the applicable Clearing Agencies or Foreign Clearing Agencies
     will make book-entry transfers among their related Clearing Agency
     Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal and interest on
     such Series of Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants; and

                                       50

<PAGE>

          (vi)   Note Owners may receive copies of any reports sent to
     Noteholders of the relevant Series generally pursuant to the Indenture,
     upon written request, together with a certification that they are Note
     Owners and payments of reproduction and postage expenses associated with
     the distribution of such reports, from the Trustee at the Corporate Trust
     Office.

     Section 2.17.  Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever notice or other
communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and
until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section
2.18 or the applicable Series Supplement, the Trustee shall give all such
notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes
to the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency for distribution to
the Holders of the Notes.

     Section 2.18.  Definitive Notes.

          (a)  Conditions for Exchange. If with respect to any Series of
Book-Entry Notes (i) (A) the Issuer advises the Trustee in writing that the
Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to
discharge properly its responsibilities under the applicable Depository
Agreement and (B) neither the Trustee nor the Issuer is able to locate a
qualified successor, (ii) the Issuer, at its option, advises the Trustee in
writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency with respect to any Series of Notes or (iii)
after the occurrence of a Servicer Default or Event of Default, Note Owners of a
Series representing beneficial interests aggregating not less than 50% (or such
other percent specified in a related Series Supplement) of the portion of
outstanding principal amount of the Notes represented by such Series advise the
Trustee and the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency through
the applicable Clearing Agency Participants in writing that the continuation of
a book-entry system through the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing
Agency is no longer in the best interests of the Note Owners of such Series, the
Trustee shall notify all Note Owners of such Series, through the applicable
Clearing Agency Participants, of the occurrence of any such event and of the
availability of Definitive Notes to Note Owners of such Series requesting the
same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the typewritten Note or Notes
representing the Book-Entry Notes of such Series by the applicable Clearing
Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from
the applicable Clearing Agency or Foreign Clearing Agency for registration, the
Trustee shall issue the Definitive Notes of such Series or Class. Neither the
Issuer nor the 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. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes of such Series and upon
the issuance of any Series of Notes or any Class thereof in definitive form in
accordance with the related Series Supplement, all references herein to
obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the applicable Clearing Agency or
Foreign Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the
Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Notes, and the
Trustee shall recognize the Holders of

                                       51

<PAGE>

the Definitive Notes of such Series or Classes as Noteholders of such Series or
Classes hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary,
Definitive Notes shall not be issued in respect of any Series Temporary
Regulation S Global Note unless the applicable Restricted Period has expired and
then only upon receipt by the Trustee from the Holder thereof of any
certifications required by the relevant Series Supplement.

          (b)  Transfer of Definitive Notes. Subject to the terms of this
Indenture (including the requirements of any relevant Series Supplement), the
holder of any Definitive Note may transfer the same in whole or in part, in an
amount equivalent to an authorized denomination, by surrendering at the office
maintained by the Transfer Agent and Registrar for such purpose in the Borough
of Manhattan, the City of New York, such Note with the form of transfer endorsed
on it duly completed and executed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Transfer Agent and Registrar
by, the holder thereof and, if applicable, accompanied by a certificate
substantially in the form required under the related Series Supplement. In
exchange for any Definitive Note properly presented for transfer, the Issuer
shall execute and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver or cause
to be executed, authenticated and delivered in compliance with applicable law,
to the transferee at such office, or send by mail (at the risk of the
transferee) to such address as the transferee may request, Definitive Notes for
the same aggregate principal amount as was transferred. In the case of the
transfer of any Definitive Note in part, the Issuer shall execute and the
Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver or cause to be authenticated and
delivered to the transferor at such office, or send by mail (at the risk of the
transferor) to such address as the transferor may request, Definitive Notes for
the aggregate principal amount that was not transferred. No transfer of any
Definitive Note shall be made unless the request for such transfer is made by
the Holder at such office. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be liable
for any delay in delivery of transfer instructions and each may conclusively
rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the
issuance of Definitive Notes for such Series, the Trustee shall recognize the
Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders of such Series.

     Section 2.19.  Global Note; Euro-Note Exchange Date. If specified in the
related Series Supplement for any Series, (i) the Notes may be initially issued
in the form of a single temporary global note (the "Global Note") in registered
or bearer form, without interest coupons, in the denomination of the initial
aggregate principal amount of the Notes and (ii) a Class of Notes may be
initially issued in the form of a single temporary Global Note in registered or
bearer form, in the denomination of the portion of the initial aggregate
principal amount of the Notes represented by such Class, each substantially in
the form attached to the related Series Supplement. Unless otherwise specified
in the related Series Supplement, the provisions of this Section 2.19 shall
apply to such Global Note. The Global Note will be authenticated by the Trustee
upon the same conditions, in substantially the same manner and with the same
effect as the Definitive Notes. The Global Note may be exchanged in the manner
described in the related Series Supplement for Registered Notes or Bearer Notes
in definitive form.

     Section 2.20.  Tax Treatment. The Issuer has structured this Indenture and
any Collateral Interest, and the Notes have been (or will be) issued with the
intention that, the Notes and any Collateral Interest will qualify under
applicable tax law as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Trust Estate and
any entity acquiring any direct or indirect interest in any (i) Note by
acceptance of its Notes (or, in the case of a Note Owner, by virtue of such Note
Owner's acquisition of a beneficial interest therein) agrees to treat the Notes
(or beneficial interests therein) or (ii) Collateral Interest or any interest
therein agrees to treat the Collateral Interest or any interest therein, for
purposes of Federal, state and local and income or franchise taxes and any other
tax imposed on or measured by income, as indebtedness. Each Noteholder agrees
that it will cause any Note Owner acquiring an interest in a Note through it and
each owner of any Collateral Interest or any interest therein agrees that it
will cause any Person acquiring any such interest to comply with this Indenture
as to treatment as indebtedness for such tax purposes.

a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and
addresses of the Holders as of such Record Date, (b) at such other times as the
Trustee may request in writing, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the
Issuer of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not
more than ten (10) days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided,
however, that so long as the Trustee is the Transfer Agent and Registrar, no
such list shall be required to be furnished. The Trustee will furnish or cause
to be furnished by the Transfer Agent and Registrar to the Servicer or the
Paying Agent such list for payment of distributions to Noteholders.

     Section 4.2.   Preservation of Information; Communications to Noteholders.

          (a)  The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably
practicable, the names and addresses of the Holders contained in the most recent
list furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 4.1 and the names and
addresses of Holders received by the Trustee in its capacity as Transfer Agent
and Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in
such Section 4.1 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.

          (b)  Noteholders may communicate (including pursuant to TIA Section
312(b) (if this Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA)) with other
Noteholders with respect

                                       53

to their rights under this Indenture or under the Notes. Unless otherwise
provided in the related Series Supplement, if holders of Notes evidencing in
aggregate not less than 20% of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes of
any Series (the "Applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to
the Trustee reasonable proof that each such Applicant has owned a Note for a
period of at least 6 months preceding the date of such application, and if such
application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other
Noteholders of any Series with respect to their rights under this Indenture or
under the Notes and is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such
Applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee, after having been adequately
indemnified by such Applicants for its costs and expenses, shall within five (5)
Business Days after the receipt of such application afford or shall cause the
Transfer Agent and Registrar to afford such Applicants access during normal
business hours to the most recent list of Noteholders held by the Trustee and
shall give the Servicer notice that such request has been made within five (5)
Business Days after the receipt of such application. Such list shall be as of
the most recent Record Date, but in no event more than forty five (45) days
prior to the date of receipt of such Applicants' request.

          (c)  The Issuer, the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar
shall have the protection of TIA Section 312(c) (if this Indenture is required
to be qualified under the TIA). Every Noteholder, by receiving and holding a
Note, agrees with the Issuer and the Trustee that neither the Issuer, the
Trustee, the Transfer Agent and Registrar, nor any of their respective agents
shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as
to the names and addresses of the Noteholders in accordance with this Section
4.2, regardless of the source from which such information was obtained.

     Section 4.3.   Reports by Issuer.

          (a)  The Servicer on behalf of the Issuer shall:

     Commission, hard and electronic copies of the annual reports and of the
     information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any
     of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and
     regulations prescribe) which the Issuer may be required to file with the
     Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

          (ii)   file with the Trustee and the Commission in accordance with

     additional information, documents and reports, if any, with respect to
     compliance by the Issuer with the conditions and covenants of this
     Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and
     regulations;

          (iii)  supply to the Trustee (and the Trustee shall transmit by mail
     to all Noteholders) such summaries of any information, documents and
     reports required to be

                                       54

<PAGE>

     filed by the Issuer (if any) pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of this
     subsection 4.3(a) as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed
     from time to time by the Commission; and

          (iv)   prepare and distribute any other reports required to be
     prepared by the Servicer under any Transaction Documents.

with March 1, 2003, the Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder as required by TIA
Section 313(c) a brief report dated as of such date that complies with TIA
Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b).

     A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders shall be
filed by the Trustee with the Commission and each stock exchange, if any, on
which the Notes are listed. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee if and when the
Notes are listed on any stock exchange.

     Section 4.5.   Reports and Records for the Trustee and Instructions.

          (a)  Unless otherwise stated in the related Series Supplement with
respect to any Series and subject to the requirements of Section 4.4, on each
Determination Date the Servicer shall forward to the Trustee a Monthly Servicer
Report prepared by the Servicer.

          (b)  Unless otherwise specified in the related Series Supplement, on
each Payment Date, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall forward to each
Noteholder of record of each outstanding Series the Monthly Noteholders'
Statement with respect to such Series, with a copy to the Rating Agencies and
each Enhancement Provider with respect to such Series.

                                   ARTICLE 5.

                    ALLOCATION AND APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS

     Section 5.1.   Rights of Noteholders. Each Series of Notes shall be
secured by the entire Trust Estate, including the benefits of any Enhancement
issued with respect to such Series and the right to receive the Collections and
other amounts at the times and in the amounts specified in this Article 5 to be
deposited in the Investor Accounts and any other Series Account (if so specified
in the related Series Supplement) or to be paid to the Noteholders of such
Series. In no event shall the grant of a security interest in the entire Trust
Estate be deemed to entitle any Noteholder to receive Collections or other
proceeds of the Trust Estate in excess of the amounts described in Article 5.

                                       55

     Section 5.2.   Collection of Money. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and shall receive and
collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent or
other intermediary, all money and other property payable to or receivable by the
Trustee pursuant to this Indenture. The Trustee shall apply all such money
received by it as provided in this Indenture. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Indenture, if any default occurs in the making of any payment
or performance under any agreement or instrument that is part of the Trust
Estate, the Trustee may take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such
payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate
Proceedings. Any such action shall be without prejudice to any right to claim a
Default or Event of Default under this Indenture and any right to proceed
thereafter as provided in Article 9.

     Section 5.3.   Establishment of Accounts.

          (a)  The Collection Account. On or prior to the Initial Closing Date,
the Issuer shall cause the Servicer and the Servicer, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, shall establish and maintain in the city in which the Corporate
Trust Office is located, with a Qualified Institution or as a segregated trust
account with the corporate trust department of a depository institution or trust
company having corporate trust powers and acting as trustee for funds deposited
in the Collection Account, in the name of the Trustee, a non-interest bearing
segregated account (the "Collection Account") bearing a designation clearly
indicating that the funds deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of
the Secured Parties. Pursuant to authority granted to it pursuant to subsection
2.02(a) of the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall have the revocable power
to withdraw funds from the Collection Account for the purposes of carrying out
its duties thereunder. The Trustee shall be the entitlement holder of the
Collection Account, and shall possess all right, title and interest in all
moneys, instruments, securities and other property on deposit from time to time
in the Collection Account and the proceeds thereof for the benefit of the
Secured Parties. Initially, the Collection Account will be established with the
Trustee. Funds on deposit in the Collection Account that are not both deposited
and to be withdrawn on the same day shall be invested in Permitted Investments.

          (b)  The Finance Charge and Principal Accounts. The Trustee, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, shall establish and maintain in the city in
which the Corporate Trust Office is located, with a Qualified Institution, in
the name of the Trustee, two non-interest bearing segregated trust accounts (the
"Finance Charge Account" and the "Principal Account" respectively), each bearing
a designation clearly indicating that the funds therein are held for the benefit
of the Secured Parties. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest
in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Finance Charge Account and the
Principal Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Trustee shall be the
entitlement holder of both the Finance Charge Account and the Principal Account
and, subject to the next sentence, the Finance Charge Account and the Principal
Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the
benefit of the Secured Parties. Pursuant to authority granted to it hereunder
and in the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall have the revocable power to
instruct the Trustee to

                                       56

<PAGE>

withdraw funds from the Finance Charge Account and Principal Account for the
purpose of carrying out the Servicer's duties under the Servicing Agreement. The
Trustee at all times shall maintain accurate records reflecting each transaction
in the Principal Account and the Finance Charge Account and that funds held
therein shall at all times be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured
Parties.

          (c)  The Payment Accounts. For each Series, the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties of such Series, shall establish and maintain in
the State of New York or in the city in which the Corporate Trust Office is
located, with one or more Qualified Institutions, in the name of the Trustee, a
non-interest bearing segregated trust account (each, a "Payment Account" and
collectively, the "Payment Accounts") bearing a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held in trust for the benefit of the
Secured Parties of such Series. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Payment Accounts and
in all proceeds thereof. The Payment Accounts shall be under the sole dominion
and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties of such
Series.

          (d)  Series Accounts. If so provided in the related Series Supplement,
the Trustee or the Servicer, for the benefit of the Secured Parties of such
Series, shall cause to be established and maintained, in the name of the
Trustee, one or more accounts (each, a "Series Account" and, collectively, the
"Series Accounts"). Each such Series Account shall bear a designation clearly
indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Secured Parties of such Series. Each such Series Account will be a trust
account, if so provided in the related Series Supplement, and will have the
other features and be applied as set forth in the related Series Supplement.

          (e)  Administration of the Finance Charge and Principal Accounts.
Funds on deposit in the Principal Account and the Finance Charge Account that
are not both deposited and to be withdrawn on the same date shall be invested in
Permitted Investments. Any such investment shall mature and such funds shall be
available for withdrawal on or prior to the Series Transfer Date related to the
Monthly Period in which such funds were received or deposited, or if so
specified in the related Series Supplement, immediately preceding a Payment
Date. The Trustee shall: (i) hold each Permitted Investment (other than such as
are described in clause (c) of the definition thereof) that constitutes
investment property through a securities intermediary, which securities
intermediary shall (I) agree that such investment property shall at all times be
credited to a securities account of which the Trustee is the entitlement holder,
(II) comply with entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without the
further consent of any other person or entity, (III) agree that all property
credited to such securities account shall be treated as a financial asset, (IV)
waive any lien on, security interest in, or right of set-off with respect to any
property credited to such securities account, and (V) agree that its
jurisdiction for purposes of Section 8-110 and Section 9-305(a)(3) of the UCC
shall be New York, and that such agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
State of New York; and (ii) maintain for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
possession or control of each other Permitted Investment (including any
negotiable instruments, if any, evidencing such Permitted Investments) not
described in clause (i)

                                       57

<PAGE>

above (other than such as are described in clause (c) of the definition
thereof); provided that no Permitted Investment shall be disposed of prior to
its maturity date if such disposition would result in a loss. Terms used in
clause (i) above that are defined in the New York UCC and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meaning set forth in the New York UCC. At the end of each
month, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on
funds on deposit in the Principal Account and the Finance Charge Account shall
be deposited in the Collection Account and treated as Investment Earnings. If at
the end of a month losses and investment expenses on funds on deposit in either
of the Principal Account and the Finance Charge Account exceed interest and
earnings on such funds during such month, losses and expenses to the extent of
such excess will be allocated, with respect to any Series, among the Noteholders
of such Series and the Issuer as provided in the related Series Supplement.
Subject to the restrictions set forth above, the Issuer, or a Person designated
in writing by the Holder of the Issuer Interest, of which the Trustee shall have
received written notification thereof, shall have the authority to instruct the
Trustee with respect to the investment of funds on deposit in the Principal
Account and the Finance Charge Account.

          (f)  Qualified Institution. If, at any time, the institution holding
any account established pursuant to this Section 5.3 ceases to be a Qualified
Institution, the Trustee shall notify each Rating Agency and within ten (10)
Business Days establish a new account or accounts, as the case may be, meeting
the conditions specified above with a Qualified Institution, and shall transfer
any cash or any investments to such new account or accounts, as the case may be.

     Section 5.4.   Collections and Allocations.

          (a)  Collections in General. Subject to the last paragraph of this
Section 5.4(a), until this Indenture is terminated pursuant to Section 12.1, the
Issuer shall or shall cause the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement to cause
all Collections due and to become due, as the case may be, to be paid directly
into the Collection Account as promptly as possible after the date of receipt of
such Collections, but in no event later than the second Business Day following
such date of receipt. All monies, instruments, cash and other proceeds received
by the Servicer in respect of the Trust Estate pursuant to this Indenture shall
be deposited in the Collection Account as specified herein and shall be applied
as provided in this Article 5 and Article 6.

     The Servicer shall allocate such amounts to each Series of Notes and to the
Issuer in accordance with this Article 5 and shall withdraw the required amounts
from the Collection Account or pay such amounts to the Issuer in accordance with
this Article 5, in both cases as modified by any Series Supplement. The Servicer
shall make such deposits or payments on the date indicated therein by wire
transfer or as otherwise provided in the Series Supplement for any Series of
Notes with respect to such Series.

                                       58

<PAGE>

     Notwithstanding anything in this Base Indenture or the Servicing Agreement
to the contrary, and in consideration of and reliance upon the Issuer and the
Servicer securing the Servicer Letter of Credit, for so long as, and only so
long as, no Daily Payment Event shall have occurred and the aggregate amount of
Collections then held by the Servicer or otherwise commingled with its general
funds does not exceed the Available Servicer Letter of Credit Amount under the
Servicer Letter of Credit, the Issuer shall not be required to cause the
Servicer to make daily deposits of Collections into the Collection Account in
the manner provided in this Article 5 or as required under the Servicing
Agreement or, with respect to any Series, make daily payments from and daily
deposits into the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account or any Series
Account as provided in any applicable Series Supplement prior to the close of
business on the day any Collections are deposited in the Collection Account as
provided in this Article 5, but instead, the Servicer may commingle such
Collections with its general funds or otherwise during each Monthly Period and
make a single deposit in the Collection Account in immediately available funds
not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Series Transfer Date
immediately preceding the related Payment Date in an amount equal to the lesser
of (A) Collections received in the immediately preceding Monthly Period
allocable to the Aggregate Investor Interests for each Group and (B) the amount
required to be deposited in the Finance Charge Account, the Principal Account or
any Series Account or, without duplication, distributed on or prior to the
related Payment Date to the Secured Parties.

     If a Daily Payment Event shall have occurred or the aggregate amount of
Collections then held by the Servicer or otherwise commingled with its general
fund exceeds the Available Servicer Letter of Credit Amount, the Issuer shall or
shall cause the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement to cause all Collections
due and to become due, as the case may be, to be paid directly into the
Collection Account as promptly as possible after the date of receipt of such
Collections, but in no event later than the second Business Day following such
date of receipt.

          (b)  Allocation of Collections Between Finance Charges and Principal
Receivables. At all times and for all purposes of this Base Indenture, the
Servicer shall allocate Collections received in respect of any Receivables for
any Monthly Period to Finance Charges and to Principal Receivables in the manner
specified in subsection 3.02(b) of the Servicing Agreement.

          (c)  Issuer Distributions. Prior to the commencement of the Rapid
Amortization Period with respect to each Series of Notes, amounts on deposit in
the related Principal Account in excess of the related Principal Account Floor
may on each Business Day (other than a Series Transfer Date or Payment Date) be
paid to the Issuer ("Issuer Distributions") provided that (i) the Coverage Test
is satisfied; (ii) such payment to the Issuer shall be limited to the extent
used by the Issuer to pay the Sellers for Subsequently Purchased Receivables or
to repay any Originator Notes solely to the extent of any increase in the
principal of such Originator Note since the preceding Payment Date; (iii) there
shall not exist on such Business Day, and such payment and the application
thereof shall not result in the occurrence of, a Pay Out Event, a Potential Pay
Out Event, a Servicer Default, an Event of Default or a Default. The Issuer will

                                       59

<PAGE>

meet the " Coverage Test" if, on any date of determination, (i) the Issuer
Interest as of such date exceeds the largest required "Minimum Issuer Interest"
of any outstanding Series (such excess being herein called the " Available
Issuer Interest") as of such date (determined by the Servicer taking into
account any increases, decreases and status changes of the Receivables and any
increases or decreases in the outstanding notes including those scheduled to
occur on such date) and (ii) the Aggregate Net Investor Charge-Offs is zero as
of such date.

          (d)  Adjustments to Issuer Interest. The Issuer shall cause the
Servicer to deduct, on or prior to each Determination Date, on a net basis for
each Monthly Period from the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables used to
calculate the Issuer Interest the portion of each Principal Receivable which is
reduced by the Servicer by any rebate, refund, chargeback or adjustment
(including due to Servicer errors) made by the Servicer (a "Credit Adjustment").

          (e)  Disqualification of Institution Maintaining Collection Account.
Upon and after the establishment of a new Collection Account with a Qualified
Institution, the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited all Collections
as set forth in subsection 5.3(a) into the new Collection Account, and in no
such event shall deposit or cause to be deposited any Collections thereafter
into any account established, held or maintained with the institution formerly
maintaining the Collection Account (unless it later becomes a Qualified
Institution or qualified corporate trust department maintaining the Collection
Account).

          (f)  Sharing Collections. In the manner described in the related
Series Supplement, to the extent that Collections allocated to Principal
Receivables that are allocated to any Series are not needed to make payments to
the Secured Parties of such Series or required to be deposited in a cash reserve
account or a Payment Account for such Series, such Collections may be applied to
cover payments due to or for the benefit of the Secured Parties of another
Series. Any such reallocation will not result in a reduction in the Investor
Interest of the Series to which such Collections were initially allocated.

     Section 5.5.   Determination of Monthly Interest. Monthly interest with
respect to each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated and distributed
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Series Supplement.

     Section 5.6.   Determination of Monthly Principal. Monthly principal with
respect to each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated and distributed
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Series Supplement.
However, all principal or interest with respect to any Series of Notes shall be
due and payable no later than the Legal Final Payment Date with respect to such
Series.

     Section 5.7.   General Provisions Regarding Accounts. Subject to
subsection 11.1(c), the Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of
any insufficiency in any of the Trust Estate resulting from any loss on any
Permitted Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the
Trustee's failure to make payments on such Permitted Investments issued by

                                       60

<PAGE>

the Trustee, in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee,
in accordance with their terms.

     Section 5.8.   Removed Receivables. Upon satisfaction of the conditions
and the requirements of any of (i) subsection 8.3(a) and Section 15.1 hereof (to
the extent applicable), (ii) Section 2.08 of the Servicing Agreement or (iii)
Section 2.4 of the Purchase Agreement, as applicable, the Issuer shall execute
and deliver and the Trustee shall acknowledge an instrument in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit C evidencing the Trustee's release of the related Removed
Receivables and Related Security, and the Removed Receivables and Related
Security shall no longer constitute a part of the Trust Estate. No party relying
upon an instrument executed by the Trustee as provided in this Article 5 shall
be bound to ascertain the Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of
any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.

     Section 5.9.   [Reserved].

     Section 5.10.  Servicer  Letter of Credit. The following provisions
shall apply so long as CAI, L.P. is the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement.

          (a)  Servicer Letter of Credit. If with respect to any Series Transfer
Date the Issuer shall have failed to cause the Servicer to make in full, the
remittance of Collections required to be remitted by it pursuant to the
Servicing Agreement and Section 5.4 (the "Required Remittance Amount") the
Trustee shall draw (prior to making a draw on any Enhancement) on the Servicer
Letter of Credit, in accordance with the terms thereof, in the amount of the
difference between (i) the Required Remittance Amount, and (ii) the amount of
funds actually so remitted. Any such draw on the Servicer Letter of Credit shall
be made on or before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the applicable Series
Transfer Date. Upon receipt of the proceeds of any drawing under the Servicer
Letter of Credit, the Trustee shall deposit such proceeds into the Collection
Account and such proceeds shall, for all purposes of this Indenture, be deemed
to be Collections and shall be distributed accordingly. The Servicer shall
include in each Monthly Servicer Report, the Stated Amount (as defined in the
Servicer Letter of Credit) of the Servicer Letter of Credit as of the last day
of the immediately preceding calendar month. In the event that a successor
Servicer is appointed and acting as such as a result of a failure by the
Servicer to prepare and deliver a Monthly Servicer Report, the successor
Servicer shall prepare and deliver such statement to the Trustee as promptly as
practicable, and the Trustee shall make a drawing on the basis of such statement
on the next succeeding Series Transfer Date.

          (b)  Downgrade of Servicer Letter of Credit Bank or Expiration of Term
of Servicer Letter of Credit.

          (i)  On the fifteenth day prior to the expiry date of the
     Servicer Letter of Credit (as such letter of credit may have been renewed
     or extended), the Trustee shall give written notice thereof to the Issuer,
     the Servicer and each Rating Agency.

                                       61

<PAGE>

          (ii) In the event that the Trustee receives notice that the
     letter of credit rating of the Servicer Letter of Credit Bank has been
     withdrawn or reduced below the Required Rating, the Trustee shall promptly
     give written notice thereof to the Issuer and the Servicer. Within 35 days
     (or five Business Days, if the Servicer Letter of Credit Bank does not have
     letter of credit ratings equal to or higher than P-2 (or the equivalent
     thereof) from Moody's and, if rated by any other Rating Agency, such Rating
     Agency) of receipt of such notice, the Servicer shall either (x) deliver to
     the Trustee a substitute Servicer Letter of Credit in accordance with
     clause (c) below, (y) instruct the Trustee in writing to make a demand for
     a drawing under the Servicer Letter of Credit in accordance with Section
     5.10(e) or (z) commence depositing Collections including any Collections
     then held by it, into the Collection Account in the manner described in the
     first paragraph of Section 5.4(a).

          (c)  Substitute Servicer Letter of Credit. The Trustee shall accept
delivery of a letter of credit in substitution for the Servicer Letter of Credit
and shall deliver the Servicer Letter of Credit to the Servicer Letter of Credit
Bank for cancellation upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

               (i)   The substitute letter of credit shall be irrevocable and
          shall be issued by a bank or other financial institution whose letter
          of credit or short-term deposit or other debt obligations have the
          Required Rating, and the substitute letter of credit shall provide
          that drawings thereunder may be made on substantially the same terms
          and conditions as the initial Servicer Letter of Credit, and the
          substitute letter of credit shall have been delivered to the Trustee.

               (ii)  The amount available to be drawn under, and the Stated
          Amount of, the substitute letter of credit shall be at least equal to
          the amount which was available to be drawn under, and the Stated
          Amount of, the Servicer Letter of Credit being replaced.

               (iii) The Trustee shall have received written opinions of counsel
          (acceptable to the Trustee) (including domestic and foreign counsel,
          if applicable) from the issuer of the substitute letter of credit,
          which opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and its
          respective counsel, as to the enforceability of the substitute
          Servicer letter of credit.

               (iv)  The Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee a
          certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Servicer confirming the
          items set forth in (i) and (ii) above.

accordance with this section, such substitute letter of credit shall be the
Servicer Letter of Credit and the issuer thereof shall be the Servicer Letter of
Credit Bank for all purposes hereof.

                                       62

<PAGE>

          (d)  Regular Remittances. If the Servicer elects to begin regular
remittances of Collections to the Collection Account in accordance with the
first paragraph of subsection 5.4(a), the Servicer shall instruct the Trustee in
writing to submit the Servicer Letter of Credit to the Servicer Letter of Credit
Bank for cancellation and the Servicer shall begin such regular remittances in
accordance with the first paragraph of subsection 5.4(a).

          (e)  Special Drawing. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish
or cause to be established in the name of the Trustee a segregated trust account
(the "Servicer LC Escrow Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Secured
Parties. If the Servicer elects to instruct the Trustee to make a drawing as
described in clause (b)(ii)(y) above, the Servicer shall provide two Business
Days notice to the Servicer Letter of Credit Bank and shall instruct the Trustee
in writing to promptly draw upon the Servicer Letter of Credit to the full
extent of the Available Servicer Letter of Credit Amount thereunder and deposit
such amount into the Servicer LC Escrow Account. All funds on deposit in the
Servicer LC Escrow Account shall, at the direction of the Servicer, be invested
by the Trustee in Permitted Investments which will be held to maturity and which
will mature so that all funds on deposit therein will be available prior to the
Series Transfer Date next following the date of such investment. The Trustee
shall: (i) hold each Permitted Investment (other than such as are described in
clause (c) of the definition thereof) that constitutes investment property
through a securities intermediary, which securities intermediary shall (I) agree
that such investment property shall at all times be credited to a securities
account of which the Trustee is the entitlement holder, (II) comply with
entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without the further consent of any
other person or entity, (III) agree that all property credited to such
securities account shall be treated as a financial asset, (IV) waive any lien
on, security interest in, or right of set-off with respect to any property
credited to such securities account, and (V) agree that its jurisdiction for
purposes of Section 8-110 and Section 9-305(a)(3) of the UCC shall be New York,
and that such agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York;
and (ii) maintain for the benefit of the Secured Parties, possession or control
of each other Permitted Investment (including any negotiable instruments, if
any, evidencing such Permitted Investments) not described in clause (i) above
(other than such as are described in clause (c) of the definition thereof);
provided that no Permitted Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity
date if such disposition would result in a loss. Terms used in clause (i) above
that are defined in the New York UCC and not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meaning set forth in the New York UCC. Until the Indenture Termination Date,
if a drawing under the Servicer Letter of Credit is called for under subsection
(a) above, a withdrawal in the same amount from the Servicer LC Escrow Account
shall instead be made and the related funds applied as provided therein. From
and after the date of such Special Drawing, the term "Available Servicer Letter
of Credit Amount" with respect to the Servicer Letter of Credit shall be deemed
to refer to the amount on deposit in the Servicer LC Escrow Account (excluding
any investment earnings thereon). On the first Business Day after the Indenture
Termination Date, all funds in the Servicer LC Escrow Account shall be paid,
first, to the Servicer Letter of Credit Bank to the extent of any amounts
payable thereto under the reimbursement agreement for the Servicer Letter

                                       63

<PAGE>

of Credit, second, to the Excess Funding Account to the extent of any payments
by the Issuer to the Servicer Letter of Credit Bank under such reimbursement
agreement and, third, to the Servicer (the "Payment Priorities"). Any investment
earnings on the Servicer LC Escrow Account shall be remitted on each Series
Transfer Date in accordance with the Payment Priorities. All funds on deposit in
the Servicer LC Escrow Account shall be the sole and exclusive property of the
Trustee, subject to the rights of the Servicer as provided herein. Neither the
Issuer nor the Servicer shall at any time have any ownership or other interest
in such funds or any right to withdraw or to receive such funds except as
described in the third preceding sentence. In the event that, notwithstanding
the intention of the parties hereto, such funds are deemed to be the property of
the Issuer or the Servicer, each of the Issuer and the Servicer hereby grants to
the Trustee, a security interest in and to all of the Issuer's or the Servicer's
(as the case may be) right, title and interest in such funds for the purpose of
securing the rights of the Trustee hereunder.

     In the event that the Servicer delivers to the Trustee a substitute letter
of credit meeting the requirements of subsection (c) above, the Trustee shall
release any funds on deposit in the Servicer LC Escrow Account in accordance
with the Payment Priorities.

          (f)  Reimbursement. If any amounts are payable by the Issuer to the
Servicer Letter of Credit Bank under the reimbursement agreement for the
Servicer Letter of Credit, the Trustee shall pay such amounts on behalf of the
Issuer in accordance with each Series Supplement.

          (g)  Notices. If the Servicer Letter of Credit is amended, replaced or
terminated, the Issuer shall promptly provide written notice thereof to each
Rating Agency.

<PAGE>

on the Initial Closing Date the originals of which have been copied on microfilm

<PAGE>

covenant contained thereunder without the prior written consent of the Required
Persons for each Series. The Issuer shall take all actions reasonably requested
by the Trustee to enforce the Issuer's rights and remedies under the Transaction

Trustee and the Noteholders are entering into the transactions contemplated by
this Base Indenture and the other Transaction Documents in reliance upon the
Issuer's identity as a legal entity separate from any other Person. Therefore,
from and after the date hereof, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps to
continue the Issuer's identity as a separate legal entity and to make it
apparent to third Persons that the Issuer is an entity with assets and
liabilities distinct from those of any other Person, and is not a division of
any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in
addition to and consistent with the covenant set forth herein, the Issuer shall
take such actions as shall be required in order that:

          (i)    The Issuer will be a limited purpose limited partnership whose
     primary activities are restricted in a partnership agreement to owning
     financial assets and financing the acquisition thereof and conducting such
     other activities as it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out its
     primary activities;

          (ii)   At least two managers of the general partner of the Issuer (the
     "Independent Managers") shall be individuals who are not present or former
     directors, officers, employees or 5% beneficial owners of the outstanding
     common stock of any Person or entity beneficially owning any outstanding
     shares of common stock of Conn or any Affiliate thereof; provided, however,
     that an individual shall not be deemed to be ineligible to be an
     Independent Manager solely because such individual serves or has served in
     the capacity of an "independent manager" or similar capacity for special
     purpose entities formed by Parent or any of its Affiliates. The partnership
     agreement of the Issuer shall provide that (i) the general partner of the
     Issuer shall not approve, or take any other action to cause the filing of,
     a voluntary bankruptcy petition with respect to the Issuer unless the
     Independent Managers shall approve the taking of such action in writing
     prior to the taking of such action, and (ii) such provision cannot be
     amended without the prior written consent of the Independent Managers;

          (iii)  Any employee, consultant or agent of the Issuer will be
     compensated from funds of the Issuer, as appropriate, for services provided
     to the Issuer;

          (iv)   The Issuer will allocate and charge fairly and reasonably
     overhead expenses shared with any other Person. To the extent, if any, that
     the Issuer and any other Person share items of expenses such as legal,
     auditing and other professional services, such expenses will be allocated
     to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or the

                                       70

<PAGE>

     value of services rendered, and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to
     the actual use or the value of services rendered;

          (v)    The Issuer's operating expenses will not be paid by any other
     Person except as permitted under the terms of this Indenture or otherwise
     consented to by the Trustee and the Required Persons;

          (vi)   The Issuer's books and records will be maintained separately
     from those of any other Person;

          (vii)  All audited financial statements of any Person that are
     consolidated to include the Issuer will contain notes clearly stating that
     (A) all of the Issuer's assets are owned by the Issuer, and (B) the Issuer
     is a separate entity;

          (viii) The Issuer's assets will be maintained in a manner that
     facilitates their identification and segregation from those of any other
     Person;

          (ix)   The Issuer will strictly observe appropriate formalities in its
     dealings with all other Persons, and funds or other assets of the Issuer
     will not be commingled with those of any other Person, other than temporary
     commingling in connection with servicing the Receivables to the extent
     explicitly permitted by this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents;

          (x)    The Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, be named or enter
     into an agreement to be named, as a direct or contingent beneficiary or
     loss payee, under any insurance policy with respect to any amounts payable
     due to occurrences or events related to any other Person;

          (xi)   Any Person that renders or otherwise furnishes services to the
     Issuer will be compensated thereby at market rates for such services it
     renders or otherwise furnishes thereto. Except as expressly provided in the
     Transaction Documents, the Issuer will not hold itself out to be
     responsible for the debts of any other Person or the decisions or actions
     respecting the daily business and affairs of any other Person; and

          (xii)  comply with all material assumptions of fact set forth in the
     opinion with respect to certain bankruptcy matters delivered by Andrews &
     Kurth L.L.P. on the date hereof, relating to the Issuer, its obligations
     hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party
     and the conduct of its business with Conn, any other Seller, the Initial
     Seller or any other Person.

          (q)  Minimum Net Worth. Have a net worth (in accordance with GAAP) of
at least 1% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

                                       71

<PAGE>

          (r)  Servicer's Obligations. Cause the Servicer to comply with
subsection 2.02(c) and Sections 2.09 and 2.10 of the Servicing Agreement.

          (s)  Income Tax Characterization. For purposes of federal income,
state and local income and franchise and any other income taxes, unless
otherwise required by the relevant governmental authority, the Issuer will treat
the Notes as indebtedness.

     Section 8.3.   Negative Covenants. So long as any Notes are outstanding,
the Issuer shall not, unless the Required Persons of each Series shall otherwise
consent in writing:

          (a)  Sales, Liens, Etc. Except pursuant to, or as contemplated by,
the Transaction Documents, the Issuer shall not sell, assign (by operation of
law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or create or suffer to exist
voluntarily or, for a period in excess of thirty (30) days, involuntarily any
Adverse Claims upon or with respect to any of its assets, including, without
limitation, the Collateral, any interest therein or any right to receive any
amount from or in respect thereof.

          (b)  Claims, Deductions. Claim any credit on, or make any deduction
from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than
amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code) or assert any claim

     other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents; or

          (iv)  enter into any transaction with any Affiliate except for the
     transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and other
     transactions upon fair and

                                       72

<PAGE>

     reasonable terms materially no less favorable to the Issuer than would be
     obtained in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person not an
     Affiliate.

          (d)  Change in Business Policy. The Issuer shall not make any
change in the character of its business which would impair in any material
respect the collectibility of any Receivable.

          (e)  Other Debt. Except as provided for herein, the Issuer shall not
create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness whether current or
funded, other than (i) the Notes, (ii) Indebtedness of the Issuer representing

          (f)  Certificate of Limited Partnership and Limited Partnership

limited partnership agreement unless the Trustee shall have received written
confirmation by the Rating Agencies that after such amendment the Rating Agency
Condition will be met.

          (g)  Financing Statements. The Issuer shall not authorize the
filing of any financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of
registration under the laws of any jurisdiction) or statements relating to the
Trust Estate other than the financing statements authorized and filed in
connection with and pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

          (h)  Business Restrictions. The Issuer shall not (i) engage in any
business or transactions, or be a party to any documents, agreements or
instruments, other than the Transaction Documents or those incidental to the
purposes thereof, or (ii) make any expenditure for any assets (other than
Receivables) if such expenditure, when added to other such expenditures made
during the same calendar year would, in the aggregate, exceed Ten Thousand
Dollars ($10,000); provided, however, that the foregoing will not restrict the
Issuer's ability to pay servicing compensation as provided herein and, so long
as no Default, Event of Default, Pay Out Event or Potential Pay Out Event shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Issuer's ability to pay amounts due on the
Originator Note or other payments or distributions legally made to the Issuer's
equity owners.

          (i)  ERISA Matters.

          (i)   To the extent applicable, the Issuer will not (A) engage or
     permit any of its respective ERISA Affiliates to engage in any prohibited

     ERISA) for which an exemption is not available or has not previously been
     obtained from the U.S. Department of Labor; (B) fail to make any payments
     to any Multiemployer Plan that the Issuer or any ERISA Affiliate of the
     Issuer is required to make under the agreement relating to such
     Multiemployer Plan or any law

                                       73

<PAGE>

     pertaining thereto; (C) terminate any Pension Plan so as to result in any
     liability to Issuer or any ERISA Affiliate; or (D) permit to exist any
     occurrence of any reportable event described in Title IV of ERISA, if such
     prohibited transactions, failures to make payment, terminations and
     reportable events described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above would in
     the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (ii)  To the extent applicable, the Issuer will not permit to exist
     any accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section 302(a) of ERISA
     and Section 412(a) of the Code) or funding deficiency with respect to any
     Title IV Plan other than a Multiemployer Plan.

          (iii) To the extent applicable, the Issuer will not cause or permit
     any of its ERISA Affiliates to cause or permit the occurrence of an ERISA
     Event with respect to Title IV Plans of the Issuer or its ERISA Affiliates

     $1,000,000.

          (j)  Name, Principal Office. The Issuer will not change its name,
its jurisdiction of organization or the location of its chief executive office
or principal place of business (within the meaning of the applicable UCC)
without prior written notice to the Trustee sufficient to allow the Trustee to
make all filings (including filings of financing statements on form UCC-1) and
recordings necessary to maintain the perfection of the interest of the Trustee
in the Trust Estate pursuant to this Indenture. The Issuer further agrees that
it will not become or seek to become organized under the laws of more than one
jurisdiction. In the event that the Issuer desires to so change its jurisdiction
of incorporation or its office or change its name, the Issuer will make any
required filings and prior to actually making such change the Issuer will
deliver to the Trustee (i) a Conn Officers' Certificate and (except with respect
to a change of the location of the Issuer's chief executive office or principal
place of business to a new location in the same county) an Opinion of Counsel
confirming that all required filings have been made to continue the perfected
interest of the Trustee in the Trust Estate in respect of such change and (ii)
copies of all such required filings with the filing information duly noted
thereon by the office in which such filings were made.

     Section 8.4.   Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee,
the Issuer will execute and deliver such further instruments, furnish such other
information and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to
carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

     Section 8.5.   Appointment of Successor Servicer. If the Trustee has given

pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Servicing Agreement, as promptly as possible
thereafter, the Trustee shall appoint a successor servicer in accordance with
Section 2.01 of the Servicing Agreement.

the Initial Seller or the Servicer;

          (b)  all of the Sellers shall become unable for any reason to

(collectively, an "Issuer Pay Out Event"), a Pay Out Event with respect to all
Series of Notes shall occur and (ii) unless otherwise specified in the related
Series Supplement, in the case of any event described in clause (e) above, a Pay
Out Event with respect to only Notes of the related Series shall occur, in each
case, unless otherwise specified in a related Series Supplement, without any
notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or the affected Noteholders

     Section 10.1.  Events of Default. Unless otherwise specified in a Series
Supplement, an "Event of Default", wherever used herein, means any one of the

     the Issuer or any of its Affiliates) when the same becomes due and payable,
     and such default shall continue (and shall not have been waived by the
     Required Persons of each affected Series) for a period of five (5) Business
     Days after receipt of notice thereof from the Trustee;

          (ii)  default in the payment of the principal of or any installment
     of the principal of any Class of Notes of any Series (other than the most

     such subordinated Class is retained by the Issuer or any of its Affiliates)
     when the same becomes due and payable on the related Legal Final Payment
     Date;

          (iii) the filing of a decree or order for relief by a court having

     Section 10.2.  Rights of the Trustee Upon Events of Default.

          (a)  If and whenever an Event of Default (other than in clause (iii)
and (iv) of Section 10.1) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee
may, and, at the written direction of the Required Noteholders shall, cause the
principal amount of all Notes of all Series outstanding to be immediately due
and payable at par, together with interest thereon. If an Event of Default with
respect to the Issuer specified in clause (iii) and (iv) of Section 10.1 shall
occur, all unpaid principal of and accrued interest on all the Notes of all
Series outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable
without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any
Noteholder. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it
under applicable law and Section 10.4. Any amounts obtained by the Trustee on
account of or as a result of the exercise by the Trustee of any right shall be
held by the Trustee as additional collateral for the repayment of the Issuer
Obligations and shall be applied as provided in Article 5 hereof. If so
specified in the applicable Series Supplement, the Trustee may agree to limit
its exercise of rights and remedies available to it as a result of the
occurrence of an Event of Default to the extent set forth therein.

          (b)  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
then at any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article 10 provided, the Required
Noteholders, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and
annul such declaration and its consequences if:

          (i)  the Issuer has paid to or deposited with the Trustee a sum
     sufficient to pay

               (A)  all payments of principal of and interest on all Notes and
          all other amounts that would then be due hereunder or upon such Notes
          if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not
          occurred; and

               (B)  all sums paid by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable
          compensation, expenses, disbursements of the Trustee and its agents
          and counsel; and

          (ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal
     of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been
     cured or waived as provided in Section 10.6.

     No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereto.

          (c)  Additional Remedies. In addition to any rights and remedies now
or hereafter granted hereunder or under applicable law with respect to the Trust
Estate, the Trustee

                                       77

<PAGE>

shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as
enacted in any applicable jurisdiction.

     Section 10.3.  Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee.

          (a)  The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment
of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such
default continues for a period of five (5) days, or (ii) default is made in the
payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when
the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of
five (5) days, the Issuer will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the
benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on
such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal,
and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally
enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the applicable Note Rate
and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the
costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.

          (b)  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of
the Secured Parties by such appropriate Proceedings as the Trustee shall deem
most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or
legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

          (c)  In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any
proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture),
the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Secured Parties, and it shall not
be necessary to make any such Person a party to any such proceedings.

          (d)  In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any
other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership
interest in the Trust Estate, proceedings under Title 11 of the United States
Code or any other applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or
reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been
appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other
obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial proceedings
relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or
property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of
whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee
shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be
entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise:

                                       78

<PAGE>

          (i)   to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of
     principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file
     such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to
     have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable
     compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their
     respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all
     expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee
     and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence, bad faith
     or willful misconduct) and of the Secured Parties allowed in such
     proceedings;

          (ii)  unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on
     behalf of the Secured Parties in any election of a trustee, a standby
     trustee or person performing similar functions in any such proceedings;

          (iii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
     deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with
     respect to the claims of the Secured Parties and of the Trustee on their
     behalf; and

          (iv)  to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as
     may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee or
     the Secured Parties allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the
     Issuer, its creditors and its property;

     and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official
in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Secured Parties to
make payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent
to the making of payments directly to such Secured Parties, to pay to the
Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to
the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and
counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made,
by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence,
bad faith or willful misconduct.

          (e)  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the
Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Secured Party or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Secured Party in
any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee
in bankruptcy or similar person.

          (f)  All rights of action and of asserting claims under this
Indenture or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other
proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by
the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and
any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements
and

                                       79

<PAGE>

compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective
agents and attorneys, shall be for the Secured Parties.

     Section 10.4.  Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee may do one or more of the following:

          (a)  institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable under the
Transaction Documents, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the
Issuer and any other obligor under the Transaction Documents moneys adjudged
due;

          (b)  institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or
partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate;

          (c)  subject to the limitations set forth in clause (d) below,
exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other
appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Trustee
and the Secured Parties; and

          (d)  sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or
interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in
any manner permitted by law; provided, however, that the Trustee may not sell or
otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate following an Event of Default unless:

          (i)   the Holders of 100% of all of the outstanding Notes and, unless
     otherwise specified in the applicable Series Supplement, the Enhancement
     Providers of each Series of all outstanding Series consent thereto,

          (ii)  the Investor Percentage of the proceeds of such sale or
     liquidation distributable to the Noteholders and Enhancement Providers of
     each Series are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and
     unpaid with respect to all outstanding Notes and to the Enhancement
     Providers of all outstanding Series at such date for principal and interest
     and any other amounts due Noteholders, or

          (iii) the Trustee determines that the Investor Percentage of the
     proceeds of the Trust Estate will not continue to provide sufficient funds
     for the payment of principal of and interest on the outstanding Notes of
     all outstanding Series as such amounts would have become due if the Notes
     had not been declared due and payable, and the Trustee obtains the consent
     of the Required Noteholders and the Enhancement Providers.

     In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses
(d)(ii) and (d)(iii), the Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an
opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national
reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the
sufficiency of the Receivables in the Trust Estate for such purpose.

                                       80

<PAGE>

     The Trustee may maintain a Proceeding even if it does not possess any of
the Notes or does not produce any of them in the Proceeding, and any such
Proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be in its own name as trustee. All
remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

     Section 10.5.  [Reserved].

     Section 10.6.  Waiver of Past Events. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the
maturity of the Notes as provided in subsection 10.2(a), the Required Persons of
each Series may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences
except a Default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) of or interest on
any of the Notes. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and
the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights
hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

     Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to
have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every
purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

     Section 10.7.  Limitation on Suits. No Secured Party shall have any right
to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Base
Indenture and related Series Supplement, or for the appointment of a receiver or
trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

          (i)   such Secured Party previously has given written notice to the
     Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

          (ii)  the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
     outstanding Notes of all affected Series have made written request to the
     Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in
     its own name as Trustee hereunder;

          (iii) such Secured Party has offered and, if requested, provided to
     the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs,
     expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

          (iv)  the Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such
     notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such
     Proceedings; and

          (v)   no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
     given to the Trustee during such sixty (60)-day period by the Required
     Noteholders;

                                       81

<PAGE>

     it being understood and intended that no one or more Secured Parties shall
have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any
provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any
other Secured Parties or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference
over any other Secured Parties or to enforce any right under this Indenture,
except in the manner herein provided.

     In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests
and indemnity from two or more groups of Secured Parties, each representing less
than the Required Noteholders, the Trustee shall proceed in accordance with the
request of the greater majority of the outstanding principal amount of the
Notes, as determined by reference to such requests.

     Section 10.8.  Unconditional Rights of Holders to Receive Payment;
Withholding Taxes.

          (a)   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right
of any Noteholder of a Note to receive payment of principal and interest, if
any, on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note or
in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such
respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or
affected without the consent of the Noteholder.

          (b)   The Paying Agent shall (or if the Trustee is not the Paying
Agent, the Trustee shall cause the Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee
that such Paying Agent shall) comply with all requirements of the Code regarding
the withholding of payments in respect of Federal income taxes due from
Noteholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of this Indenture
applicable to it.

     Section 10.9.  Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If any Noteholder has
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture
and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has
been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in
every such case the Issuer, the Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to
any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to
their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the
Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
instituted.

     Section 10.10. The Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is
authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Secured Parties allowed in any
judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the
Notes), its creditors or its property, and shall be entitled and empowered to
collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claim and any custodian in any

                                       82

<PAGE>

such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Secured Party to make such
payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the
making of such payments directly to the Secured Parties, to pay the Trustee any
amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under Section 11.6. To the extent that the payment of any such
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 11.6 out of the
estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the
same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all
distributions, dividends, money, notes and other properties which the Secured
Parties may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or
under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or
accept or adopt on behalf of any Secured Party any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any
Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim
of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.

     Section 10.11. Priorities. Following the declaration of a Pay Out Event or
an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1 or 10.2, all amounts in any Payment
Account, including any money or property collected pursuant to Section 10.4,
shall be applied by the Trustee on the related Payment Date in accordance with
the provisions of Article 5 and the applicable Series Supplement.

     The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to
Secured Parties pursuant to this Section. At least fifteen (15) days before such
record date the Issuer shall mail to each Secured Party and the Trustee a notice
that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

     Section 10.12. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree,
and each Secured Party shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the
provisions of this Section shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the
Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in
each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of the Notes on the date of the filing of such action or (c)
any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of
principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates
expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on
or after the Redemption Date).

     Section 10.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Secured Parties is intended
to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall,
to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

     Section 10.14. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the
Trustee or any Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any
Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute
a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.
Every right and remedy given by this Article 10 or by law to the Trustee or to
the Secured Parties may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be
deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Secured Parties, as the case may be.

     Section 10.15. Control by Noteholders. The Required Noteholders shall have
the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for
any remedy available to the Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any
trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided that:

          (i)   such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
     with this Indenture;

          (ii)  subject to the express terms of Section 10.4, any direction to
     the Trustee to sell or liquidate the Receivables shall be by the Holders of
     Notes representing not less than 100% of the aggregate outstanding
     principal balance of all the Notes of all Series; and

          (iii) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
     Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction;

provided, however, that, subject to Section 11.1, the Trustee need not take any
action that it determines might involve it in liability or might materially
adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

     Section 10.16. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon,
or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of,
any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in
force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and
the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but
will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law
had been enacted.

                                       84

     Section 10.17. Action on Notes. The Trustee's right to seek and recover
judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the
seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to
this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of
the Trustee or the Secured Parties shall be impaired by the recovery of any
judgment by the Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under
such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of
the Issuer.

     Section 10.18. Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.

          (a)   Promptly following a request from the Trustee to do so the
Issuer agrees to take all such lawful action as the Trustee may reasonably
request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Sellers, the
Initial Seller, the Parent and the Servicer, as applicable, of each of their
obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Transaction Documents
in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise any and all rights,
remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in
connection with the Transaction Documents to the extent and in the manner
directed by the Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the
part of the Sellers, the Initial Seller, the Parent or the Servicer thereunder
and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel
or secure performance by the Sellers, the Initial Seller, the Parent or the
Servicer of each of their obligations under the Transaction Documents.

          (b)   If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee may, and, at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by
telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of the Required
Noteholders shall, subject to subsection 10.2(b), exercise all rights, remedies,
powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Sellers, the Initial
Seller, the Parent or the Servicer under or in connection with the Transaction
Documents, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure
performance or observance by the Sellers, the Initial Seller, the Parent or the
Servicer of each of their obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any
consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the
Transaction Documents, and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be
suspended.

     Section 10.19. Reassignment of Surplus. Promptly after termination of this
Indenture and the payment in full of the Issuer Obligations, any proceeds of all
the Receivables and other assets in the Trust Estate received or held by the
Trustee shall be turned over to the Issuer and the Receivables and other assets
in the Trust Estate shall be released to the Issuer by the Trustee without
recourse to the Trustee and without any representations, warranties or
agreements of any kind.

                                  THE TRUSTEE

     Section 11.1.  Duties of the Trustee.

          (a)   If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and of
which a Trust Officer of the Trustee has knowledge, the Trustee shall exercise
such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same
degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or
use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs; provided,
however, that the Trustee shall have no liability in connection with any action
or inaction taken, or not taken, by it upon the deemed occurrence of an Event of
Default of which a Trust Officer has not received written notice; and provided,
further that the preceding sentence shall not have the effect of insulating the
Trustee from liability arising out of the Trustee's negligence or willful
misconduct.

          (b)   Except during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default:

          (i)   the Trustee undertakes to perform only those duties that are
     specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied
     covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the
     Trustee; and

          (ii)  in the absence of negligence and bad faith on its part, the
     Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
     correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
     opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
     this Indenture; provided, however, in the case of any such certificates or
     opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be
     furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and
     opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of
     this Indenture and, if applicable, the Transaction Documents to which the
     Trustee is a party, provided, further, that the Trustee shall not be
     responsible for the accuracy or content of any of the aforementioned
     documents and the Trustee shall have no obligation to verify or recompute
     any numeral information provided to it pursuant to the Transaction
     Documents.

          (c)   No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act, or its own willful misconduct or for the breach of the express
terms of the Indenture, except that:

          (i)   this clause does not limit the effect of clause (b) of this
     Section 11.1;

                                       86

<PAGE>

          (ii)  the Trustee shall not be personally liable for any error of
     judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer or Trust Officers of the
     Trustee, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining
     the pertinent facts;

          (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it
     takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
     received by it pursuant to Section 10.15;

          (iv)  the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure
     by the Servicer referred to in clauses (a), (b) or (c) of Section 2.04 of
     the Servicing Agreement unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee obtains
     actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives written notice of
     such failure from an Enhancement Provider, the Servicer or any Holders of
     Notes evidencing not less than 10% of the aggregate outstanding principal
     balance of the Notes of any Series adversely affected thereby.

          (d)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Indenture or any of the Transaction Documents, no provision of this Indenture
shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the
exercise of any of its rights and powers, if there is reasonable ground (as
determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion) for believing that the
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk is not
reasonably assured to it by the security afforded to it by the terms of this
Indenture.

          (e)   Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section and to the provisions of the TIA (if
this Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA).

          (f)   The Trustee shall, and hereby agrees that it will, perform all
of the obligations and duties required of it under the Servicing Agreement.

          (g)   Except for actions expressly authorized by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall take no action reasonably likely to impair the interests of the
Issuer in any asset of the Trust Estate now existing or hereafter created or to
impair the value of any asset of the Trust Estate now existing or hereafter
created.

          (h)   Except as provided in this subsection 11.1(h), the Trustee shall
have no power to vary the corpus of the Trust Estate including, without
limitation, the power to (i) accept any substitute obligation for an asset of
the Trust Estate assigned by the Issuer under the Granting Clause except for
actions expressly authorized by this Indenture or (ii) release any assets from
the Trust Estate, except in each case as permitted or contemplated by the
Transaction Documents permitted under Sections 5.8, 10.19, 12.1, 12.4, 15.1 or
Article 5 and Section 2.08 of the Servicing Agreement.

                                       87

<PAGE>

          (i)   The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they
substantially conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

          (j)   Without limiting the generality of this Section 11.1 and subject
to the other provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee shall have no duty (i) to
see to any recording, filing or depositing of this Indenture or any agreement
referred to herein, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing
or depositing or to any recording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (ii)
to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment or other governmental
Lien owing with respect to, assessed or levied against any part of the Issuer,
(iii) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates delivered
to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture or the Servicing Agreement believed by
the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties, or (iv) to inspect the Receivables at any time or ascertain or
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the Issuer's, the
Sellers', the Initial Seller's, the Parent's or the Servicer's representations,
warranties or covenants or the Servicer's duties and obligations as Servicer and
as Custodian of the Receivable Files under the Transaction Documents.

          (k)   Subject to subsection 11.1(d), in the event that the Paying
Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar (if other than the Trustee) shall fail
to perform any obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day
required to be performed by the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and
Registrar, as the case may be, under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be
obligated as soon as practicable upon actual knowledge of a Trust Officer
thereof and receipt of appropriate records and information, if any, to perform
such obligation, duty or agreement in the manner so required.

          (l)   No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to require the
Trustee to perform, or accept any responsibility for the performance of, the
obligations of the Servicer hereunder until it shall have assumed such
obligations in accordance with this Section 11.1 and the provisions of the
Servicing Agreement.

          (m)   Subject to Section 11.4, all moneys received by the Trustee
shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the
purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law or the Transaction Documents.

          (n)   Except as otherwise required or permitted by the TIA (if this
Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA), nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to engage in any business operations or
any activities other than those set forth in this Indenture. Specifically, the
Trustee shall have no authority to engage in any business operations, acquire
any assets other than those specifically included in the Trust Estate under this
Indenture or otherwise vary the assets held by the Issuer. Similarly, the
Trustee shall have no discretionary

                                       88

<PAGE>

duties other than performing those ministerial acts set forth above necessary to
accomplish the purpose of this Indenture.

          (o)   The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to
have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust
Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof. In the
absence of receipt of such notice, the Trustee may conclusively assume that
there is no Default or Event of Default.

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

     Section 11.2.  Rights of the Trustee. Except as otherwise provided by
Section 11.1:

          (a)   The Trustee may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in
acting upon or refraining from acting upon and in accord with, without any duty
to verify the contents or recompute any calculations therein, any document
(whether in its original or facsimile form), including any assignment of
Subsequently Purchased Receivables, the initial report, the Monthly Servicer
Report, the annual Servicer's certificate, the monthly payment instructions and
notification to the Trustee, the Monthly Noteholders' Statement, any resolution,
Conn Officer's Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
appraisal, bond or other paper or document, believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed by or presented by the proper person. Subject to Section 11.1,
the Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

          (b)   Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, the Trustee may
require a Conn Officer's Certificate or consult with counsel of its selection
and the Conn Officer's Certificate or the advice of such counsel or any Opinion
of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon.

          (c)   The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys, custodians and nominees and the Trustee shall not be liable for any
misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, any such
agent or attorneys, custodian or nominee so long as such agent, custodian or
nominee is appointed with due care.

          (d)   The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits
to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; provided, however, that the
Trustee's conduct does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad
faith or a breach of the express terms of this Indenture.

                                       89

<PAGE>

          (e)   The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Base Indenture, any Series Supplement or
any Enhancement Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation
hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of
the Noteholders or any Enhancement Provider, pursuant to the provisions of this
Base Indenture or any Series Supplement, unless such Noteholders or the
Enhancement Provider shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein
shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligations, upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of
the rights and powers vested in it by this Base Indenture or any Series
Supplement and any Enhancement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in
the conduct of his own affairs.

          (f)   The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts of matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or
other paper or document (including, any assignment of Subsequently Purchased
Receivables, the initial report, the Monthly Servicer's Report, the annual
Servicer's certificate, the monthly payment instructions and notification to the
Trustee or the Monthly Noteholders' Statement), unless requested in writing so
to do by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of Notes of any Series or any Enhancement Provider
which could be materially adversely affected if the Trustee does not perform
such acts, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or
investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee
shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be
entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or
by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability
or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;
provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee
of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making
of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured
to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture,
the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or
liability as a condition to so proceeding; the reasonable expense of every such
examination shall be paid by the Person making such request, or, if paid by the
Trustee, shall be reimbursed by the Person making such request upon demand.

          (g)   The Trustee shall have no liability for the selection of
Permitted Investments and shall not be liable for any losses or liquidation
penalties in connection with Permitted Investments, unless such losses or
liquidation penalties were incurred through the Trustee's own willful misconduct
or negligence. The Trustee shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any
amounts except as provided in this Indenture or as directed by the Issuer (or
the Servicer on its behalf).

                                       90

<PAGE>

          (h)   The Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any
successor to the Trustee so long as such acts or omissions were not the result
of the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the predecessor Trustee.

          (i)   The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits
given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be
indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each
of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person
employed to act hereunder.

          (j)   Except as may be required by paragraph 11.1(b)(ii) and
subsections 11.1(i), 11.2(a) and 11.2(f), the Trustee shall not be required to
make any initial or periodic examination of any documents or records related to
the Trust Estate for the purpose of establishing the presence or absence of
defects, the compliance by any Seller, the Initial Seller, the Parent or the
Servicer with their respective representations and warranties or for any other
purpose.

     Section 11.3.  Trustee Not Liable for Recitals in Notes. The Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the recitals contained in this
Indenture and in the Notes (other than the signature and authentication of the
Trustee on the Notes). Except as set forth in Section 11.16, the Trustee makes
no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the
Notes (other than the signature and authentication of the Trustee on the Notes)
or of any asset of the Trust Estate or related document. The Trustee shall not
be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer, the Initial Seller or
the Sellers of any of the Notes or of the proceeds of such Notes, or for the use
or application of any funds paid to the Sellers, the Initial Seller or to the
Issuer in respect of the Trust Estate or deposited in or withdrawn from the
Collection Account, the Principal Account, the Finance Charge Account or any
Series Account by the Servicer.

     Section 11.4.  Individual Rights of the Trustee. The Trustee in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and
may otherwise deal with the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer with the same
rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Transfer Agent
and Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights.
However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 11.9 and 11.11.

     Section 11.5.  Notice of Defaults. If a Default, Event of Default, Pay Out
Event or Potential Pay Out Event occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer
of the Trustee receives written notice or has actual knowledge thereof, the
Trustee shall promptly provide each Notice Person (and, with respect to any
Event of Default or Pay Out Event, each Noteholder (or, in the case of a Series
Pay Out Event, each Noteholder of the relevant Series)) and each Rating Agency
promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) after such knowledge
or notice occurs, to the extent possible by telephone and facsimile, and,
otherwise, by first class mail at their respective addresses appearing in the
Note Register.

     Section 11.6.  Compensation.

          (a)   To the extent not otherwise paid pursuant to the Indenture, the
Issuer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, reasonable compensation (which shall not
be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of
an express trust) for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trust
hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and
duties hereunder of the Trustee, and, the Issuer will pay or reimburse the
Trustee (without reimbursement from the Collection Account, any Investor
Account, any Series Account or otherwise) upon its request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances (including legal fees and costs and costs
of persons not regularly employed by the Trustee) incurred or made by the
Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture except any
such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its own willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith or breach of the express terms of this
Indenture and except as provided in the following sentence.

          (b)   The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 11.6 shall
survive the termination of this Base Indenture and the resignation or removal of
the Trustee.

     Section 11.7.  Replacement of the Trustee.

          (a)   A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee's
acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 11.7.

          (b)   The Trustee may, after giving sixty (60) days prior written
notice to the Issuer and the Servicer, resign at any time and be discharged from
the trust hereby created; provided, however, that no such resignation of the
Trustee shall be effective until a successor trustee has assumed the obligations
of the Trustee hereunder. The Issuer may remove the Trustee by so notifying the
Trustee and the Servicer. The Issuer may remove the Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee if:

          (i)   the Trustee fails to comply with Section 11.9;

          (ii)  a court or Federal or state bank regulatory agency having
     jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the Trustee shall have entered a
     decree or order granting relief or appointing a receiver, liquidator,
     assignee, custodian, trustee, conservator, sequestrator (or similar
     official) for the Trustee or for any substantial part of the Trustee's
     property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the Trustee's
     affairs;

          (iii) the Trustee consents to the appointment of or taking possession
     by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, conservator,
     sequestrator (or other

                                       92

<PAGE>

     similar official) for the Trustee or for any substantial part of the
     Trustee's property, or makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors or
     fails generally to pay its debts as such debts become due or takes any
     corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

          (iv)  the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

     If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office
of the Trustee for any reason, the Servicer shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall
be delivered to the resigning and one copy to the successor trustee.

          (c)   If a successor Trustee does not take office within thirty (30)
days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
trustee.

     A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment
to the retiring or removed Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested
with all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Base Indenture
and any Series Supplement. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its
succession to Noteholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided, however, that
all sums owing to the retiring Trustee hereunder (and its agents and counsel)
have been paid and all documents and statements held by it hereunder, and the
Issuer and the predecessor 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 Trustee all such rights, powers, duties
and obligations. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 11.7, the Issuer's obligations under Sections 11.6 and 11.17 shall
continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

          (d)   Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 11.7 shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee
pursuant to this Section 11.7 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the
retiring Trustee.

          (e)   No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in
this Section 11.7 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.9 hereof.

     Section 11.8.  Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. Any Person into which the
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust
business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee

                                       93

<PAGE>

hereunder, provided such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of
Section 11.9 hereof, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

     In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or
consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this
Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any
such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any
predecessor Trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at
that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to
the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor
hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases
such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or
in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have.

     Section 11.9.  Eligibility: Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all
times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a) (if this Indenture is
required to be qualified under the TIA).

     The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any State
thereof authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a
long-term unsecured debt rating of at least BBB-/Baa3 (or the equivalent
thereof) by Moody's and, if rated by any other Rating Agency, such Rating
Agency's, having, in the case of an entity that is subject to risk-based capital
adequacy requirements, risk-based capital of at least $50,000,000 or, in the
case of an entity that is not subject to risk-based capital adequacy
requirements, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such
corporation publishes 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 11.9, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published.

     The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), including the optional
provision permitted by the second sentence of TIA Section 310(b)(9) (if this
Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA); provided, however, that
there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any
indenture or indentures under which other securities of the Issuer are
outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section
310(b)(1) are met.

          (a)   In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.9, the Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 11.7.

     Section 11.10. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

                                       94

<PAGE>

          (a)   Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Base Indenture or
any Series Supplement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal
requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate may at
the time be located, the Trustee shall have the power and may execute and
deliver all instruments to appoint one or more persons to act as a co-trustee or
co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part
thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 11.10 such powers,
duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet
the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 11.9 and no notice
to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be
required under Section 11.7. No co-trustee shall be appointed without the
consent of the Issuer unless such appointment is required as a matter of state
law or to enable the Trustee to perform its functions hereunder. The appointment
of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall not relieve the Trustee of any of
its obligations hereunder.

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

          (i)   the Notes of each Series shall be authenticated and delivered
     solely by the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee;

          (ii)  all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
     upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
     performed by the 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 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 (whether as Trustee hereunder or
     as successor to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement), the 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 Estate 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 Trustee;

          (iii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of
     any act or omission of any other trustees, hereunder, including acts or
     omissions of predecessor or successor trustees;

          (iv)  the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove
     any separate trustee or co-trustee; and

          (v)   the Trustee shall remain primarily liable for the actions of
     any co-trustee.

                                       95

<PAGE>

          (c)   Any notice, request or other writing given to the 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 Indenture and
the conditions of this Article 11. 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
Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions
of this Base Indenture and any Series Supplement, specifically including every
provision of this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement relating to the
conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee.
Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given
to the Servicer.

          (d)   Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute
the Trustee, 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 to this
Base Indenture or any Series Supplement 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 Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without
the appointment of a new or successor Trustee.

     Section 11.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Issuer. The
Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b) (if this Indenture is required to be
qualified under the TIA). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be
subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated (if this Indenture is
required to be qualified under the TIA).

     Section 11.12. Tax Returns. Neither the Trustee nor (except to the extent
the Servicer breaches its obligations or covenants contained in the Servicing
Agreement) the Servicer shall be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses
of the Issuer, the Noteholders nor the Note Owners arising under any tax law,
including without limitation federal, state, local or foreign income or
franchise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any
interest or penalty with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply
therewith).

     Section 11.13. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All
rights of action and claims under this Base Indenture or any Series of Notes may
be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Notes or the production thereof in any Proceeding relating thereto, and any such
proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as
trustee. Any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of any Series of Noteholders
in respect of which such judgment has been obtained.

     Section 11.14. Suits for Enforcement. If an Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing, the Trustee, in its discretion may, subject to the provisions
of Section 2.01 of the

                                       96

<PAGE>

Servicing Agreement and Section 11.19, proceed to protect and enforce its rights
and the rights of any Secured Party under this Indenture or any other
Transaction Document by a Proceeding, whether for the specific performance of
any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or such other Transaction
Document or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Indenture or
such other Transaction Document or for the enforcement of any other legal,
equitable or other remedy as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem
most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee or any
Secured Party.

     Section 11.15. Reports by Trustee to Holders. The Trustee shall deliver to
each Noteholder such information as may be reasonably required to enable such
Holder to prepare its Federal and state income tax returns.

     Section 11.16. Representations and Warranties of Trustee. The Trustee
represents and warrants to the Issuer and the Secured Parties that:

          (i)   the Trustee is a banking association duly organized, existing
     and authorized to engage in the business of banking under the laws of the
     United States of America;

          (ii)  the Trustee has full power, authority and right to execute,
     deliver and perform this Base Indenture and any Series Supplement issued
     concurrently with this Base Indenture and to authenticate the Notes, and
     has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and
     performance by it of this Base Indenture and any Series Supplement issued
     concurrently with this Base Indenture and to authenticate the Notes;

          (iii) this Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the
     Trustee; and

          (iv)  the Trustee meets the requirements of eligibility hereunder set
     forth in Section 11.9.

     Section 11.17. The Issuer Indemnification of the Trustee. The Issuer shall
fully indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee (and any predecessor Trustee) and
its directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all loss,
liability, claim, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by reason of
any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of the activities
of the Trustee pursuant to this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement and any
other Transaction Document to which it is a party, including but not limited to
any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs or
expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened
action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not
indemnify the Trustee or its directors, officers, employees or agents if such
acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions constitute negligence or willful
misconduct by the Trustee. The indemnity provided herein shall survive the
termination of this Indenture and the resignation and removal of the Trustee.

                                       97

<PAGE>

     Section 11.18. Trustee's Application for Instructions from the Issuer. Any
application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Issuer or the
Servicer may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action
proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date
on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be
effective. Subject to Section 11.1, the Trustee shall not be liable for any
action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal
included in such application on or after the date specified in such application
(which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days after the date any
Responsible Officer of the Issuer or the Servicer actually receives such
application, unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to any
earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in
the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions
in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

     Section 11.19. Rights of Noteholders to Direct Trustee. Unless otherwise
specified in this Indenture, Required Noteholders (or, with respect to any
remedy, trust or power that does not relate to all Series, 66 2/3% of the
aggregate Investor Interest of the Notes of all Series to which such remedy,
trust or power relates) shall have the right to direct the time, method, and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided, however, that,
subject to Section 11.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow
any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the
action so directed may not lawfully be taken, or if the Trustee in good faith
shall, by a Trust Officer or Trust Officers of the Trustee, determine that the
proceedings so directed would be illegal or involve it in personal liability or
be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Noteholders not parties to such
direction; and provided further, that nothing in this Indenture shall impair the
right of the Trustee to take any action deemed proper by the Trustee and which
is not inconsistent with such direction of such Holders of Notes.

     Section 11.20. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Trustee will maintain
at its expense in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York an office or
offices, or agency or agencies, where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee
in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Trustee initially
appoints its Corporate Trust Office as its office for such purposes. The Trustee
will give prompt written notice to the Issuer, the Servicer and to Noteholders
(or in the case of Holders of Bearer Notes, in the manner provided for in the
related Series Supplement) of any change in the location of the Note Register or
any such office or agency.

     Section 11.21. Concerning the Rights of the Trustee. The rights,
privileges and immunities afforded to the Trustee in the performance of its
duties under this Indenture shall apply equally to the performance by the
Trustee of its duties under each other Transaction Document to which it is a
party.

                             DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

     Section 12.1.  Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture
shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes except as to (i)
rights of Noteholders to receive payments of principal thereof and interest
thereon and any other amount due to Noteholders, (ii) Sections 8.1, 11.6, 11.12,
12.2, 15.16 and 15.17 and subsection 12.5(b), (iii) the rights, obligations and
immunities of the Trustee hereunder (including the rights of the Trustee under
Sections 11.6 and 11.17 and the obligations of the Trustee under Section 12.2)
and (iv) the rights of Noteholders as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the
property deposited with the Trustee as described below payable to all or any of
them, and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall
execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture with respect to the Notes (and their related Secured Parties), on the
first Business Day after the Payment Date with respect to any Series (the
"Indenture Termination Date") on which the Issuer has paid, caused to be paid or
irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited in the applicable
Payment Account and any applicable Series Account funds sufficient to pay in
full all amounts owed to each Enhancement Provider (and returned any original
documents issued by such Enhancement Provider evidencing such Enhancement) and
all Issuer Obligations and Collateral Interests, if any, and the Issuer has
delivered to the Trustee and any Enhancement Provider a Conn Officer's
Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and, if required by the TIA (if this
Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA), an Independent Certificate
from a firm of certified public accountants, each meeting the applicable
requirements of subsection 15.1(a) and each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture have been complied with.

     After any irrevocable deposit made pursuant to Section 12.1 and
satisfaction of the other conditions set forth herein, the Trustee promptly upon
request shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Issuer's obligations
under this Indenture except for those surviving obligations specified above.

     Section 12.2.  Application of Issuer Money. All moneys deposited with the
Trustee pursuant to Section 12.1 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in
accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Base Indenture and the
related Series Supplement, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying
Agent, as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the particular Notes for
the payment or redemption of which such moneys have been deposited with the
Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal and interest;
but such moneys need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required herein or in the other Transaction Documents or required by law.

     The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Indenture.

                                       99

<PAGE>

     Section 12.3.  Repayment of Moneys Held by Paying Agent. In connection
with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes,
all moneys then held by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee under the
provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Notes shall, upon demand of
the Issuer, be paid to the Trustee to be held and applied according to Section
8.1 and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability
with respect to such moneys.

     Section 12.4.  Cleanup Call.

          (a)   If so provided in any Series Supplement, the initial Servicer
may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase the Notes of any Series on any
Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the Investor Interests for
such Series and the Enhancement Invested Amount, if any, with respect to such
Series is less than or equal to 10% of the "Initial Note Principal" on the
Closing Date for such Series (or such other amount as may be specified in a
Series Supplement for such Series). Such purchase shall be made by depositing
into the applicable Payment Account or the applicable Series Account, not later
than the Series Transfer Date preceding such Payment Date, for application in
accordance with Section 12.5, the amount specified in such Series Supplement.

          (b)   The amount deposited pursuant to subsection 12.4(a) shall be
paid to the Noteholders of the related Series pursuant to Section 12.5 on the
related Payment Date following the date of such deposit. All Notes of a Series
which are paid pursuant to subsection 12.4(a) shall be delivered by the Issuer
upon such purchase to, and be cancelled by, the Transfer Agent and Registrar and
be disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer. The Notes
of each Series which is paid pursuant to subsection 12.4(a) shall, for the
purposes of the definition of "Issuer Interest," be deemed to be equal to zero
on the Payment Date following the making of the deposit, and the Issuer Interest
shall thereupon be deemed to have been increased by the Investor Interests of
such Series.

     Section 12.5.  Final Payment with Respect to Any Series.

          (a)  Written notice of any termination, specifying the Payment Date
upon which the Noteholders of any Series may surrender their Notes for final
payment with respect to such Series and cancellation, shall be given (subject to
at least two (2) Business Days' prior notice from the Servicer to the Trustee)
by the Trustee to Noteholders of such Series mailed not later than the last day
of the month preceding such final payment (or in the manner provided by the
Series Supplement relating to such Series) specifying (i) the Payment Date
(which shall be the Payment Date in the month (x) in which the deposit is made
pursuant to subsection 12.4(a) of this Base Indenture or such other section as
may be specified in the related Series Supplement, or (y) in which the related
Series Termination Date occurs) upon which final payment of such Notes will be
made upon presentation and surrender of such Notes at the office or offices
therein designated (which, in the case of Bearer Notes, shall be outside the
United States), (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the
Record Date otherwise applicable to such

                                      100

<PAGE>

Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and
surrender of the Notes at the office or offices therein specified. The
Servicer's notice to the Trustee in accordance with the preceding sentence shall
be accompanied by a Conn Officer's Certificate setting forth the information
specified in Article 6 of this Base Indenture covering the period during the
then current calendar year through the date of such notice and setting forth the
date of such final distribution. The Trustee shall give such notice to the
Transfer Agent and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to such
Noteholders.

          (b)  Notwithstanding the termination or discharge of the trust of the
Indenture pursuant to Section 12.1 or the occurrence of the Series Termination
Date with respect to any Series, all funds then on deposit in the Finance Charge
Account, the Principal Account, the Payment Account or any Series Account
applicable to the related Series shall continue to be held in trust for the
benefit of the Noteholders of the related Series and the Paying Agent or the
Trustee shall pay such funds to the Noteholders of the related Series upon
surrender of their Notes (which surrenders and payments, in the case of Bearer
Notes, shall be made only outside the United States). In the event that all of
the Noteholders of any Series shall not surrender their Notes for cancellation
within six (6) months after the date specified in the above-mentioned written
notice, the Trustee shall give second written notice (or, in the case of Bearer
Certificates, publication notice) to the remaining Noteholders of such Series
upon receipt of the appropriate records from the Transfer Agent and Registrar to
surrender their Notes for cancellation and receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within one and one-half years after the second notice with
respect to a Series, all the Notes of such Series shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps or may
appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Noteholders
of such Series concerning surrender of their Notes, and the cost thereof shall
be paid out of the funds in the Payment Account or any Series Account held for
the benefit of such Noteholders. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to
the Issuer upon request any monies held by them for the payment of principal or
interest which remains unclaimed for two (2) years. After such payment to the
Issuer, Noteholders entitled to the money must look to the Issuer for payment as
general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another
Person.

          (c)  All Notes surrendered for payment of the final distribution with
respect to such Notes and cancellation shall be cancelled by the Transfer Agent
and Registrar and be disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Issuer.

     Section 12.6.  Termination Rights of Issuer. Upon the termination of the
Lien of the Indenture pursuant to Section 12.1, and after payment of all amounts
due hereunder on or prior to such termination, the Trustee shall execute a
written release and reconveyance substantially in the form of Exhibit A pursuant
to which it shall release the Lien of the Indenture and reconvey to the Issuer
(without recourse, representation or warranty) all right, title and interest in
the Trust Estate, whether then existing or thereafter created, all moneys due or
to become due with respect to such Trust Estate (including all accrued interest
theretofore posted as Finance Charges) and all proceeds of the Trust Estate,
except for amounts held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent

                                      101

<PAGE>

pursuant to subsection 12.5(b). The Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer and assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall
be reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Servicer to vest in the Issuer all
right, title and interest in the Trust Estate.

     Section 12.7.  Repayment to the Issuer. The Trustee and the Paying Agent
shall promptly pay to the Issuer upon written request any excess money or,
pursuant to Sections 2.10 and 2.13, return any Notes held by them at any time.

                                   AMENDMENTS

     Section 13.1.  Without Consent of the Noteholders. Without the consent of
the Holders of any Notes, and, unless otherwise provided in any Series
Supplement, with the consent of the Notice Persons of each Series (or, with
respect to an amendment to a particular Series Supplement, the Notice Persons of
such Series) and, if the Servicer's rights and/or obligations are materially and
adversely affected thereby, the Servicer and with prior written notice to the
Rating Agencies by the Issuer, as evidenced to the Trustee, the Issuer and the
Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time,
may enter into one or more indenture supplements or amendments hereto or Series
Supplements or amendments to any Series Supplement (which shall conform to any
applicable provisions of the TIA as in force at the date of execution thereof),
in form satisfactory to the Trustee, unless otherwise provided in a Series
Supplement, for any of the following purposes:

          (a)  to create a new Series of Notes;

          (b)  to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time
subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm

this Indenture, or to subject to the Lien of this Indenture additional property;

          (c)  to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable

such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and in the Notes;

          (d)  to add to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of any
Secured Parties (and if such covenants are to be for the benefit of less than
all Series of Notes, stating that such covenants are expressly being included
solely for the benefit of such Series) or to surrender any right or power herein
conferred upon the Issuer;

          (e)  to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge to the Trustee
any property or assets as security for the Issuer Obligations and to specify the
terms and conditions upon which such property or assets are to be held and dealt
with by the Trustee and to set forth such

                                      102

<PAGE>

other provisions in respect thereof as may be required by the Indenture or as
may, consistent with the provisions of the Indenture, be deemed appropriate by
the Issuer and the Trustee, or to correct or amplify the description of any such
property or assets at any time so mortgaged, pledged, conveyed and transferred
to the Trustee;

          (f)  to cure any ambiguity, or correct or supplement any provision
herein or in any supplemental indenture hereto or in any Series Supplement or
amendment to any Series Supplement which may be inconsistent with any other
provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or any Series Supplement or
amendment to any Series Supplement or to make any other provisions with respect
to matters or questions arising under this Indenture (including any Series
Supplement or amendment to any Series Supplement) or with respect to the
restructuring of any Seller, the Servicer or the Issuer as a limited liability
company; provided, however, that such action shall not adversely affect the
interests of any Holder of the Notes in any material respect without its
consent;

          (g)  to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Notes of one or more Series
or to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be
necessary and permitted to provide for or facilitate the administration of the
trusts hereunder by more than one trustee pursuant to the requirements of
Article 11;

          (h)  to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture
to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this
Indenture under the TIA or under any similar Federal statute hereafter enacted
and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required
by the TIA; or

          (i)  to add any provisions to, or change in any manner or eliminate
any of the provisions of, this Indenture (including any Series Supplement or
amendment to any Series Supplement) or modify in any manner the rights of the
Holders of the Notes under this Indenture (including any Series Supplement or
amendment to any Series Supplement); provided, however, that no amendment or
supplement shall be permitted if it would result in a taxable event to any
Noteholder unless such Noteholder's consent is obtained.

     Upon the request of the Issuer and upon receipt by the Trustee of the
documents described in Section 2.2, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in
the execution of any supplemental indenture or Series Supplement authorized or
permitted by the terms of this Base Indenture and shall make any further
appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the
Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such Series Supplement which
affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

     Section 13.2.  Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders. The
Issuer and the Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may, and unless
otherwise provided in any Series Supplement, with the consent of the Required
Persons of each Series (or, with respect to

                                      103

<PAGE>

an amendment to a particular Series Supplement, the Required Persons of such
Series) and, if the Servicer's rights and/or obligations are materially and
adversely affected thereby, the Servicer and, unless otherwise specified in the
related Series Supplement, with the consent of at least two (if there are more
than one) Holders of not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of all Notes of all Series materially and adversely affected,
voting collectively by written notice delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee,
enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of
adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of, this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes of any Series under this Base
Indenture or any Series Supplement; provided, however, that no such supplemental
indenture shall, unless otherwise provided in the related Series Supplement,
without the consent of the Required Persons of each Series (or, with respect to
the amendment of a particular Series Supplement, the Required Persons of such
Series and any other Series affected thereby) and without the consent of the
Holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby (and in the case of clause
(iii) below, the consent of each Secured Party of all Series affected):

          (i)    change the date of payment of any installment of principal of
     or interest on, or any premium payable upon the redemption of, any Note or
     reduce in any manner the principal amount thereof, the interest rate
     thereon or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, modify the provisions
     of this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement relating to the application
     of collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate to
     payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes, or change any place of
     payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest
     thereon is payable;

          (ii)   change the definition of or the manner of calculating the
     Investor Interest, the Aggregate Investor Default Amount or the Investor
     Percentage of such Series;

          (iv)   impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the
     certain provisions of this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement
     requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in
     Article 9, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on or after
     the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or
     after the Redemption Date);

          (v)    reduce the percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal
     amount of the Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required for
     any such supplemental indenture or Series Supplement or amendment of a
     Series Supplement, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for
     any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Base Indenture or
     any Series Supplement or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences
     provided for in this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement;

                                      104

<PAGE>

          (vi)   modify or alter the provisions of this Base Indenture or any
     Series Supplement regarding the voting of Notes held by the Issuer, any
     Seller, the Initial Seller or an Affiliate of the foregoing;

          (vii)  reduce the percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal
     amount of the Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required to

     principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes;

          (viii) modify any provision of this Section 13.2, except to increase
     any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional
     provisions of this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement cannot be
     modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding
     Note affected thereby;

          (ix)   modify any of the provisions of this Base Indenture or any
     Series Supplement in such manner as to affect in any material respect the
     calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due on
     any Note on any Payment Date (including the calculation of any of the
     individual components of such calculation), to alter the application of
     "Available Investor Principal Collections" of any Series or to affect the
     rights of the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the
     mandatory redemption of the Notes contained in this Base Indenture or any
     Series Supplement; or

          (x)    permit the creation of any Lien ranking prior to or on a
     parity with the Lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the
     Trust Estate for the Notes (except for Permitted Encumbrances) or, except
     as otherwise permitted or contemplated in this Base Indenture or any Series
     Supplement, terminate the Lien of this Indenture on any such collateral at
     any time subject hereto or deprive any Secured Party of the security
     provided by the Lien of this Base Indenture or any Series Supplement;
     provided, further, that no amendment will be permitted if it would result
     in a taxable event to any Noteholder, unless such Noteholder's consent is
     obtained as described above.

     The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
amendment or supplement which affects the Trustee's rights, duties or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise.

     Notwithstanding anything in Sections 13.1 and 13.2 to the contrary, the
Series Supplement with respect to any Series may be amended with respect to the
items and in accordance with the procedures provided in such Series Supplement.

     It shall not be necessary for any consent of Noteholders under this Section
to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

                                      105

<PAGE>

     The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization
of the execution thereof by Note shall be subject to such reasonable
requirements as the Trustee may prescribe.

     Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture, amendment to this Base Indenture, or any Series
Supplement pursuant to this Section, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of
the Notes of all Series (or with respect to an amendment of a Series Supplement,
to the Noteholder of the applicable Series), to any related Enhancement Provider
and to each Rating Agency rating any affected Series a notice setting forth in
general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, amendment to this
Base Indenture, or any Series Supplement. Any failure of the Trustee to mail
such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or
affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

     Section 13.3.  Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article 13 or the modifications thereby
of the trust created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, and subject to Section 11.1, shall be fully protected in relying upon,
an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture
is authorized, permitted or not prohibited (as the case may be) by this
Indenture. Such Opinion of Counsel may be subject to reasonable qualifications
and assumptions of fact. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter
into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee's own rights,
duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

     Section 13.4.  Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture shall
be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect
to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights,
obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the
Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined,
exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications
and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental
indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this
Indenture for any and all purposes.

     Section 13.5.  Conformity With TIA. Every amendment of this Indenture and
every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article 13 shall conform
to the requirements of the TIA as then in effect so long as this Indenture shall
then be required to be qualified under the TIA.

     Section 13.6.  Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures. Notes
authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Article 13 may, and if required by the Trustee shall, bear a
notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such
supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Trustee shall so determine, new
Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Issuer,
to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared, executed, authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee in exchange for outstanding Notes.

                                      106

<PAGE>

     Section 13.7.  Series Supplements. The initial effectiveness of each
Series Supplement shall be subject to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency
Condition with respect to such Series Supplement. In addition to the manner
provided in Sections 13.1 and 13.2, each Series Supplement may be amended as
provided in such Series Supplement.

     Section 13.8.  Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment or
waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Noteholder of a Note is a
continuing consent by the Noteholder and every subsequent Noteholder of a Note
or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Noteholder's
Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such
Noteholder or subsequent Noteholder may revoke the consent as to his Note or
portion of a Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before
the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver
becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every
Noteholder. The Issuer may fix a record date for determining which Noteholders
must consent to such amendment or waiver.

     Section 13.9.  Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an
appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Note thereafter
authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee
shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment or waiver. Failure to
make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity
and effect of such amendment or waiver.

     Section 13.10. The Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign
any Series Supplement authorized pursuant to this Article 13 if the Series
Supplement does not adversely affect in any material respect the rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does have such a materially
adverse effect, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing such Series
Supplement, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, if requested, an indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive and, subject to Section 11.1, shall
be fully protected in relying upon, a Conn Officer's Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel as conclusive evidence that such Series Supplement is authorized,
permitted or not prohibited (as the case may be) by this Indenture and that it
will be valid and binding upon the Issuer in accordance with its terms.

                                  ARTICLE 14.

                       REDEMPTION AND REFINANCING OF NOTES

     Section 14.1.  Redemption and Refinancing. If specified in a Series
Supplement, the Notes of any Series are subject to redemption as may be
specified in the related Series Supplement, on any Payment Date on which the
Issuer exercises its option to refinance or purchase the Trust Estate pursuant
to Section 12.4, for a purchase price equal to the Redemption Price; provided,
however, that the Issuer has available funds sufficient to pay the Redemption
Price. If the Notes of any Series are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section
14.1, the Issuer shall furnish notice of such election to the Trustee not later
than fifteen (15) days prior to the

                                      107

<PAGE>

Redemption Date and the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee in the related
Payment Account the Redemption Price of the Notes of such Series to be redeemed
whereupon all such redeemed Notes shall be due and payable on the Redemption
Date upon the furnishing of a notice complying with Section 14.2 to each Holder
of such Notes.

     Section 14.2.  Form of Redemption Notice. Notice of redemption under
Section 14.1 shall be given by the Trustee by facsimile or by first-class mail,
postage prepaid, transmitted or mailed prior to the applicable Redemption Date
to each Holder of Notes of the Series to be redeemed, as of the close of
business on the Record Date preceding the applicable Redemption Date, at such
Holder's address appearing in the Note Register.

     All notices of redemption shall state:

          (i)   the Redemption Date;

          (ii)  the Redemption Price;

          (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Redemption
     Date is not applicable and that payments shall be made only upon
     presentation and surrender of such Notes and the place where such Notes are
     to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price (which shall be the
     office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section
     8.2); and

          (iv)  that interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on the
     Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption of the Notes shall be given by the Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Issuer. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any
defect therein, to any Holder of any Note to be redeemed shall not impair or
affect the validity of the redemption of any other Note.

     Section 14.3.  Notes Payable on Redemption Date. The Notes of any Series
to be redeemed shall, following notice of redemption as required by Section 14.2
(in the case of redemption pursuant to Section 14.1), on the Redemption Date
become due and payable at the Redemption Price and (unless the Issuer shall
default in the payment of the Redemption Price) no interest shall accrue on the
Redemption Price for any period after the date to which accrued interest is
calculated for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

                                   ARTICLE 15.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 15.1.  Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc. (a) Upon any
application or request by the Issuer to the Trustee to take any action under any
provision of this Indenture, the

                                      108

<PAGE>

Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee if requested thereby (i) a Conn Officer's
Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this
Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with, (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such
conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with and (iii) (if this
Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA) an Independent Certificate
from a firm of certified public accountants meeting the applicable requirements
of this Section, except that, in the case of any such application or request as
to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any
provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be
furnished.

     Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or
covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

          (i)   a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion
     has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the
     definitions herein relating thereto;

          (ii)  a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the
     examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions
     contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

          (iii) a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory, such
     signatory has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to
     enable such signatory to express an informed opinion as to whether or not
     such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

          (iv)  a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such
     signatory such condition or covenant has been complied with.

          (b)  (i) Prior to the deposit of any Receivables or other property
or securities (other than cash) with the Trustee that is to be made the basis
for the release of any property or securities subject to the Lien of this
Indenture, the Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in subsection
15.1(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Trustee upon the
Trustee's request a Conn Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion
of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90)
days of such deposit) to the Issuer of the Receivables or other property or
securities to be so deposited.

          (ii)  Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Trustee a
     Conn Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer
     thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the Issuer shall
     also deliver to the Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same
     matters, if the fair value to the Issuer of the securities to be so
     deposited and of all other such securities made the basis of any such
     withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then-current fiscal
     year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to
     clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or

                                      109

<PAGE>

     more of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all the Notes of all
     Series issued by the Issuer, but such a certificate need not be furnished
     with respect to any securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to
     the Issuer as set forth in the related Conn Officer's Certificate is less
     than $25,000 or less than 1% percent of the aggregate outstanding principal
     amount of all the Notes of all Series issued by the Issuer of the Notes.

          (iii) Other than with respect to the release of any Removed
     Receivables or liquidated Receivables (and the Related Security therefor),
     and except for discharges of this Indenture as described in Section 12.1,
     whenever any property or securities are to be released from the lien of
     this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Trustee a Conn
     Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person
     signing such certificate as to the fair value (within ninety (90) days of
     such release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and
     stating that in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not
     impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions
     hereof.

          (iv)  Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Trustee a
     Conn Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer
     thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii) above, the Issuer shall
     also furnish to the Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same
     matters if the fair value of the property or securities and of all other
     property other than Removed Receivables and Defaulted Receivable, or
     securities released from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement
     of the then current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates
     required by clause (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of
     the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Notes of all Series
     issued by the Issuer, but such certificate need not be furnished in the
     case of any release of property or securities if the fair value thereof as
     set forth in the related Conn Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or
     less than 1% percent of the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of
     all Notes of all Series issued by the Issuer of the Notes.

     Section 15.2.  Form of Documents Delivered to Trustee. In any case where
several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of,
any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by,
or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified
or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an
opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to
other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such
matters in one or several documents.

     Any certificate or opinion of a Responsible Officer of the Issuer may be
based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of,
or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of
reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations
with respect to the matters upon which his or her certificate or opinion is
based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Responsible Officer or Opinion
of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a
certificate or opinion of, or

                                      110

<PAGE>

representations by, an officer or officers of the Servicer, the Sellers or the
Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in
the possession of or known to the Servicer, the Sellers or the Issuer, unless
such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous.

     Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more
applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other
instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and
form one instrument.

     Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall
deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as
evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that
the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at
the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of
any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article
10.

     Section 15.3.  Acts of Noteholders.

          (a)  Wherever in this Indenture a provision is made that an action may
be taken or a notice, demand or instruction given by Noteholders, such action,
notice or instruction may be taken or given by any Noteholder, unless such
provision requires a specific percentage of Noteholders. Notwithstanding
anything in this Indenture to the contrary, none of the Sellers, the Initial
Seller, the Issuer or any Affiliate controlled by Conn or controlling Conn shall
have any right to vote with respect to any Note, provided that the voting rights
of any other Affiliate of Conn shall be subject to Section 3.16(a) of the TIA
(if this Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA).

          (b)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents
duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided
such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the
Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and
evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the
Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 11.1) conclusive in
favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this
Section.

                                      111

<PAGE>

          (c)  The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any customary manner of the Trustee.

          (d)  The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

          (e)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action by the Holder of any such Notes shall bind such
Noteholder and the Holder of every Note and every subsequent Holder of such
Notes issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the
Trustee, the Servicer or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation
of such action is made upon such Note.

     Section 15.4.  Notices. All demands, notices and communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally
delivered at, sent by facsimile to, sent by courier at or mailed by registered
mail, return receipt requested, to (a) in the case of the Issuer, to 3295
College Street, Beaumont, Texas 77701, Attention: David Atnip, (b) in the case
of the Servicer or Conn, to 3295 College Street, Beaumont, Texas 77701,
Attention: David Atnip, (c) in the case of the Trustee, to the Corporate Trust
Office, (e) in the case of any Enhancement Provider for, or Required Person with
respect to, a particular Series, the address, if any, specified in the Series
Supplement relating to such Series and (f) in the case of the Rating Agency for
a particular Series, the address, if any, specified in the Series Supplement
relating to such Series; or, as to each party, at such other address as shall be
designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. Unless
otherwise provided with respect to any Series in the related Series Supplement
or otherwise expressly provided herein, any notice required or permitted to be
mailed to a Noteholder shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, at
the address of such Noteholder as shown in the Note Register, or with respect to
any notice required or permitted to be made to the Holders of Bearer Notes, by
publication in the manner provided in the related Series Supplement. If and so
long as any Series or Class is listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and such
exchange shall so require, any notice to Noteholders shall be published in an
authorized newspaper of general circulation in Luxembourg (which maybe the
Luxembourger Wort or Zeitung) within the time period prescribed in this
Indenture. Any notice so mailed or published, as the case may be, within the
time prescribed in this Indenture shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given, whether or not the Noteholder receives such notice.

     The Issuer or the Trustee by notice to the other may designate additional
or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications; provided,
however, the Issuer may not at any time designate more than a total of three (3)
addresses to which notices must be sent in order to be effective.

     Any notice (i) given in person shall be deemed delivered on the date of
delivery of such notice, (ii) given by first class mail shall be deemed given
five (5) days after the date that such notice is mailed, (iii) delivered by
telex or telecopier shall be deemed given on the date of

                                      112

<PAGE>

delivery of such notice, and (iv) delivered by overnight air courier shall be
deemed delivered one Business Day after the date that such notice is delivered
to such overnight courier.

     Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, the
Trustee shall have no liability based upon or arising from the failure to
receive any notice required by or relating to this Indenture or the Notes.

     If the Issuer mails a notice or communication to Noteholders, it shall mail
a copy to the Trustee at the same time.

     Section 15.5.  Notices to Noteholders: Waiver. Where this Indenture
provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such
event, at his address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving
of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed
to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner here
in provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

     Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be
waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before
or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.
Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Trustee but such filing
shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such a waiver.

     In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of
a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail
notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given
pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such
notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a
sufficient giving of such notice.

     Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to
give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created
hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a Default or Event of
Default.

     Section 15.6.  Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Trustee
on behalf of the Issuer may enter into any agreement with any Holder of a Note
providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Trustee or any Paying Agent
to such Holder, that is different from the methods provided for in this
Indenture for such payments or notices, provided that such methods are consented
to by the Issuer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Trustee
will cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such
agreements.

                                      113

     Section 15.7.  Conflict with TIA. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies
or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in
this indenture by any of the provisions of the TIA, such required provision
shall control (if this Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA).

     The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties on any
person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless
expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture,
whether or not physically contained herein (if this Indenture is required to be
qualified under the TIA). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and regardless of
whether the Indenture is required to be qualified under the TIA, the provisions
of Section 316(a)(1) of the TIA shall be excluded from this Indenture.

     Section 15.8.  Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and
Section headings herein and the Table of Contents and Cross-Reference Table are
for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and
shall not affect the meaning or construction hereof.

     Section 15.9.  Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this
Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns,
whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture
shall bind its successors.

     Section 15.10. Separability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Indenture or Notes shall for
any reason whatsoever be held invalid, then such covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants,
agreements, provisions or terms of this Indenture and shall in no way affect the
validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Indenture or of the
Notes or rights of the Holders thereof.

     Section 15.11. Benefits of Indenture. Except as set forth in this
Indenture, nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors
hereunder and the Secured Parties, any benefit or any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under the Indenture.

     Section 15.12. Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on which any
payment is due to any Secured Party shall not be a Business Day, then
(notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture) any such
payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which
nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any
such nominal date.

     Section 15.13. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION. THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES
SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE

                                      114

<PAGE>

OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE
OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS INDENTURE AND EACH
SECURED PARTY HEREBY AGREES TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED
STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE
COURT HAVING JURISDICTION TO REVIEW THE JUDGEMENT THEREOF. EACH OF THE PARTIES
AND EACH SECURED PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS
AND ANY OBJECTION TO VENUE OF ANY ACTION INSTITUTED HEREUNDER IN ANY OF THE
AFOREMENTIONED COURTS AND CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE
RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT.

     Section 15.14. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number
of counterparts, and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of
which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts
shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

     Section15.15.  Recording of Indenture. If this Indenture is subject to
recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be
effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
(which may be counsel to the Trustee or any other counsel reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee) to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the
protection of the Noteholders or any other person secured hereunder or for the
enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Trustee under this Indenture.

     Section 15.16. Issuer Obligation. No recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer or under this
Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith
or therewith, against (i) any Seller, the Initial Seller, the Servicer or the
Trustee or (ii) any partner, owner, incorporator beneficiary, beneficial owner,
agent, officer, director, employee, shareholder or agent of the Issuer, the
Initial Seller, any Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee, except (x) as any such
Person may have expressly agreed and (y) nothing in this Section shall relieve
any Seller, the Initial Seller or the Servicer from its own obligations under
the terms of any Transaction Document. Nothing in this Section 15.16 shall be
construed to limit the Trustee from exercising its rights hereunder with respect
to the Trust Estate.

     Section 15.17. No Bankruptcy Petition Against the Issuer. Each of the
Secured Parties and the Trustee by entering into the Indenture, any Enhancement
Agreement, any Series Supplement or any Note Purchase Agreement (as defined in
such Series Supplement) and in the case of a Noteholder and Note Owner, by
accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date which is
one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing Note and
the termination of the Indenture, it will not institute against, or join with
any other Person in instituting against, the Issuer any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency

                                      115

<PAGE>

or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings, under any United States
Federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or any of the Transaction Documents. In the
event that any such Secured Party or the Trustee takes action in violation of
this Section 15.17, the Issuer shall file an answer with the bankruptcy court or
otherwise properly contesting the filing of such a petition by any such Secured
Party or the Trustee against the Issuer or the commencement of such action and
raising the defense that such Secured Party or the Trustee has agreed in writing
not to take such action and should be estopped and precluded therefrom and such
other defenses, if any, as its counsel advises that it may assert. The
provisions of this Section 15.17 shall survive the termination of this
Indenture, and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Nothing contained
herein shall preclude participation by any Secured Party or the Trustee in the
assertion or defense of its claims in any such proceeding involving the Issuer.

     Section 15.18. No Joint Venture. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed
or construed to create a co-partnership or joint venture between the parties
hereto and the services of the Servicer shall be rendered as an independent
contractor and not as agent for the Trustee.

     Section 15.19. Rule 144A Information. For so long as any of the Notes of
any Series or any Class are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule
144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, the Issuer, the Servicer and the Trustee
agree to cooperate with each other to provide to any Noteholders of such Series
or Class and to any prospective purchaser of Notes designated by such Noteholder
upon the request of such Noteholder or prospective purchaser, any information
required to be provided to such holder or prospective purchaser to satisfy the
condition set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act if at the time
of the request the Issuer is not a reporting company under Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act.

     Section 15.20. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and
no delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee, any Secured Party, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof;
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies,
powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exhaustive of any
rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

     Section 15.21. Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Indenture will inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, the Secured Parties, and
their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as otherwise provided
in this Article 15, no other Person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

     Section 15.22. Merger and Integration. Except as specifically stated
otherwise herein, this Indenture sets forth the entire understanding of the
parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and all prior understandings,
written or oral, are superseded by this Indenture.

                                      116

<PAGE>

     Section 15.23. Rules by the Trustee. The Trustee may make reasonable rules
for action by or at a meeting of any Secured Parties.

     Section 15.24. Duplicate Originals. The parties may sign any number of
copies of this Indenture. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture.

     Section 15.25. Waiver of Trial by Jury. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, each of the Secured Parties irrevocably waives all right of
trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or in
connection with this Indenture or the Transaction Documents or any matter
arising hereunder or thereunder.

                    ----------------------------------------

     RELEASE AND RECONVEYANCE OF TRUST ESTATE, dated as of __________, _____,

from time to time be, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the "Base
Indenture");

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Base Indenture, upon the termination of the Lien
of the Base Indenture pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Base Indenture and after

                     PERFECTION REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES
                                  AND COVENANTS

In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the

as follows on the Closing Date:

                                     General
                                     -------

1.   The Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined
in the applicable UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Trustee, which
security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such as
against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer.

2.   The Receivables constitute "accounts", "tangible chattel paper" or
"electronic chattel paper" within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the
State of Texas.

3.   Each of the Trust Accounts and all subaccounts thereof constitute either a
deposit account or a securities account.

                                    Creation
                                    --------

4.   The Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables free
