                           express trust);

                                    (B)      reimburse the Indenture Trustee
                           upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
                           disbursements and advances incurred or made by the
                           Indenture Trustee in accordance with any provision of
                           the Indenture (including the reasonable compensation,
                           expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel)
                           to the extent the Indenture Trustee is entitled to
                           such reimbursement by the Issuer under the Indenture;

                                    (C)      indemnify the Indenture Trustee
                           for, and hold it harmless against, any losses,
                           liability or expense incurred without negligence or
                           bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee,
                           arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
                           or administration of the trusts and duties
                           contemplated by the Indenture, including the
                           reasonable costs and expenses of defending themselves
                           against any claim or liability in connection
                           therewith to the extent the Indenture Trustee is
                           entitled to such indemnification from the Issuer
                           under the Indenture;

                                    (D)      pay the reasonable expense of any
                           examination or investigation by the Owner Trustee
                           undertaken pursuant to Section 7.01(e) of the Trust
                           Agreement, and if such expense is paid by the Owner
                           Trustee, then such expense shall be reimbursed by the
                           Administrator upon demand.

                  (b)      Additional Duties.

                           (i)      In addition to the duties of the
                  Administrator set forth above, the Administrator shall perform
                  such calculations, and shall prepare for execution by the
                  Issuer or the Owner Trustee or shall cause the preparation by
                  other appropriate persons of all such documents, reports,
                  filings, instruments, certificates and opinions as it shall be
                  the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to prepare, file
                  or deliver pursuant to the Basic Documents, and at the request
                  of the Owner Trustee shall take all appropriate action that it
                  is the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to take
                  pursuant to the Basic Documents. Subject to Section 5 of this
                  Agreement, and in accordance with the reasonable written
                  directions of the Owner Trustee, the Administrator shall
                  administer, perform or supervise the performance of such other
                  activities in connection with the Collateral (including the
                  Basic Documents) as are not covered by any of the foregoing
                  provisions and as are expressly requested by the Owner Trustee
                  and are reasonably within the capability of the Administrator.

                           (ii)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
                  or the Basic Documents to the contrary, the Administrator
                  shall be responsible for promptly notifying the Owner Trustee
                  in the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the
                  Issuer's payments (or allocations of income) to a
                  Certificateholder as contemplated in Section 5.02(c) of the
                  Trust Agreement. Any such notice shall

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  specify the amount of any withholding tax required to be
                  withheld by the Owner Trustee pursuant to such provision.

                           (iii)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
                  or the Basic Documents to the contrary, the Administrator
                  shall be responsible for performance of the duties of the
                  Administrator set forth in Section 5.04(a), (b), (c), (d), (e)
                  and (f) of the Trust Agreement with respect to, among other
                  things, accounting and reports to the Certificateholders;
                  provided, however, that the Owner Trustee shall remain
                  exclusively responsible for the mailing of the Schedule K-1s
                  necessary to enable each Certificateholder to prepare its
                  federal and state income tax returns.

                           (iv)     The Administrator shall satisfy its
                  obligations with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) above and
                  under the Trust Agreement by retaining, at the expense of the
                  Administrator, a firm of independent public accountants (the
                  "Accountants") which shall perform the obligations of the
                  Administrator thereunder; provided, however, that the
                  Certificateholder is not the Administrator or any of its
                  Affiliates.

                           In connection with paragraph (ii) above, the
                  Accountants will provide, prior to December 1 of each year, a
                  letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee
                  as to whether any tax withholding is then required and, if
                  required, the procedures to be followed with respect thereto
                  to comply with the requirements of the Code; provided,
                  however, that the Certificateholder is not the Administrator
                  or any of its Affiliates. The Accountants shall be required to
                  update the letter in each instance that any additional tax
                  withholding is subsequently required or any previously
                  required tax withholding shall no longer be required.

                           (v)      The Administrator shall perform the duties
                  of the Administrator specified in Section 10.02 of the Trust
                  Agreement required to be performed in connection with the
                  resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee, and any other
                  duties expressly required to be performed by the Administrator
                  under the Trust Agreement.

                           (vi)     The Administrator shall advise the Owner
                  Trustee in all regards with respect to its duties pursuant to
                  any Swap Agreement into which the Trust enters pursuant to
                  Section 5.02(d) of the Trust Agreement, including the
                  recommendation of and retention, at its expense, of any such
                  agents or advisors that are deemed by the Owner Trustee to be
                  reasonably necessary to undertake its duties pursuant to any
                  such Swap Agreement. Pursuant to Section 5.02(d) of the Trust
                  Agreement, if the Certificateholders notify the Administrator
                  with respect to the Trust's election to enter into such a Swap
                  Agreement, the Administrator will prepare all necessary and
                  appropriate documentation and take all of the necessary and
                  appropriate actions to cause the Issuer to enter into such a
                  Swap Agreement on behalf of the Trust.

                           (vii)    In carrying out the foregoing duties or any
                  of its other obligations under this Agreement, the
                  Administrator may enter into transactions with or otherwise
                  deal with any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the
                  terms of any such transactions or dealings shall be in
                  accordance with any directions received from the Issuer and
                  shall be, in the Administrator's opinion, no less favorable to
                  the Issuer than would be available from unaffiliated parties.

                  (c)      Non-Ministerial Matters.

                           (i)      With respect to matters that in the
                  reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial,
                  the Administrator shall not take any action unless within a
                  reasonable time before the taking of such action (x) the
                  Administrator shall have notified the Owner Trustee of the
                  proposed action and the Owner Trustee shall have consented
                  thereto or provided an alternative direction, and (y) all
                  approvals required under the Basic Documents shall have been
                  obtained. For the purpose of the preceding sentence,
                  "non-ministerial matters" shall include, without limitation:

                                    (A)      the amendment of the Indenture or
                           execution of any supplement to the Indenture;

                                    (B)      the initiation of any claim or
                           lawsuit by the Issuer and the compromise of any
                           action, claim or lawsuit brought by or against the
                           Issuer (other than in connection with the collection
                           of the Receivables);

                                    (C)      the amendment, change or
                           modification of any of the Basic Documents;

                                    (D)      the appointment of successor Note
                           Registrars or successor Paying Agents pursuant to the
                           Indenture or the appointment of successor
                           Administrators, or the consent to the assignment by
                           the Note Registrar, Paying Agent or Indenture Trustee
                           of its obligations, in each case under the Indenture;
                           and

                                    (E)      the removal of the Indenture
                           Trustee.

                           (ii)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
                  this Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to,
                  and shall not (x) make any payments to the Noteholders under
                  the Basic Documents, (y) sell the Trust Estate pursuant to
                  Section 5.04 of the Indenture or (z) take any other action
                  that the Issuer directs the Administrator not to take on its
                  behalf.

                  (d)      Swap Agreement. As set forth in Section 5.11 of the
                  Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer may enter into a
                  currency Swap Agreement with a Swap Counterparty to swap
                  amounts payable to Certificateholders from U.S. dollars to
                  Japanese yen, according to the terms set forth in Section 5.11
                  of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 5.02(d) of the
                  Trust Agreement.

account and records shall be accessible for inspection by the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at any time during normal business hours upon
reasonable advance written notice.

         3.       COMPENSATION. As compensation for the performance of the
Administrator's obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its
expenses related thereto, the Administrator shall be entitled to a fee of
$200.00 per month which shall be solely an obligation of the Servicer.

         4.       ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO BE FURNISHED TO THE ISSUER. The
Administrator shall furnish to the Issuer from time to time such additional
information regarding the Collateral as the Issuer shall reasonably request.

         5.       INDEPENDENCE OF THE ADMINISTRATOR. For all purposes of this
Agreement, the Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not be
subject to the supervision of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture
Trustee with respect to the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of
its obligations hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer hereunder
or otherwise, the Administrator shall have no authority to act for or represent
the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, and shall not otherwise
be or be deemed an agent of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture
Trustee.

         6.       NO JOINT VENTURE. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall
(i) constitute the Administrator and any of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee as members of any partnership, joint venture, association,
syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) be construed
to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) be deemed to confer on
any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation
or liability on behalf of the others.

         7.       OTHER ACTIVITIES OF ADMINISTRATOR. Nothing herein shall
prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses
or, in its or their sole discretion, from acting as an administrator for any
other person or entity, or in a similar capacity therefor, even though such
person or entity may engage in business activities similar to those of the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

         8.       TERM OF AGREEMENT; RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF ADMINISTRATOR.

                  (a)      This Agreement shall continue in force until the
         termination of the Issuer, upon which event this Agreement shall
         automatically terminate.

                  (b)      Subject to Sections 8(e) and 8(f), the Administrator

         any of the following events shall occur:

                           (i)      the Administrator shall fail to perform in
                  any material respect any of its duties under this Agreement
                  and, after notice of such default, shall not cure such default
                  within 10 days (or, if such default cannot be cured in such
                  time, shall not give within such 10 days such assurance of
                  timely and complete cure as shall be reasonably satisfactory
                  to the Issuer);

                           (ii)     the entry of a decree or order by a court or
                  agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the
                  premises for the appointment of a trustee in bankruptcy,
                  conservator, receiver or liquidator for the Administrator in
                  any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
                  of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the
                  winding up or liquidation of their respective affairs, and the
                  continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect
                  for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

                           (iii)    the consent by the Administrator to the
                  appointment of a trustee in bankruptcy, conservator or
                  receiver or liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency,
                  readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or
                  similar proceedings of or relating to the Administrator of or
                  relating to substantially all of their property, or the
                  Administrator shall admit in writing its inability to pay its
                  debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take
                  advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization
                  statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors,
                  or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

                           The Administrator agrees that if any of the events
         specified in clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section shall occur, it
         shall give written notice thereof to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and
         the Indenture Trustee within seven days after the occurrence of such
         event.

                  (e)      No resignation or removal of the Administrator
         pursuant to this Section shall be effective until (i) a successor
         Administrator shall have been appointed by the Issuer and (ii) such
         successor Administrator shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the
         terms of this Agreement on substantially the same terms as the
         Administrator is bound hereunder.

                  (f)      The appointment of any successor Administrator shall
         be effective only after each Rating Agency (other than Moody's) has
         provided to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee notice that the
         proposed appointment will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of
         any rating, if any, then assigned by such Rating Agency to any Class of
         Notes or the Certificates. Promptly after the appointment of any
         successor Administrator, the Owner Trustee will provide notice of such
         appointment to Moody's (so long as Moody's is then rating any
         outstanding Notes).

         acknowledges that upon the appointment of a Successor Servicer pursuant
         to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Administrator shall
         immediately resign and such Successor Servicer shall automatically
         succeed to the rights, duties and obligations of the Administrator
         under this Agreement.

         9.       ACTION UPON TERMINATION, RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL. Promptly upon
the effective date of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8(a) or
the resignation or removal of the Administrator pursuant to Section 8(b) or 8(c)
or 8(d), the Administrator shall be entitled to be paid all fees and
reimbursable expenses accruing to it to the date of such termination,
resignation or removal. The Administrator shall forthwith upon such termination
pursuant to Section 8(a) deliver to or to the order of the Issuer all property
and documents of or relating to the Collateral then in the custody of the
Administrator. In the event of the resignation or removal of the Administrator
pursuant to Section 8(b) or 8(c) or 8(d), the Administrator shall cooperate with

or to such other address as any party shall have provided to the other parties
in writing. Any notice required to be in writing hereunder shall be deemed given
if such notice is mailed by certified mail, postage prepaid, or hand delivered

         11.      AMENDMENTS. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by
a written amendment duly executed and delivered by the Issuer, the
Administrator, and the Indenture Trustee, with the consent of the Owner Trustee
but without the consent of any Noteholders or the Certificateholders, for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or modifying or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such
amendment does not and will not, in the Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect the interest of any
Noteholder or Certificateholder. This Agreement may also be amended from time to
time by the Issuer, the Administrator, and the Indenture Trustee with the
consent of the Owner Trustee and (i) the holders of Notes evidencing a majority
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, voting as a single class; or (ii) in the
case of any amendment that does not adversely affect the Indenture Trustee or
the Noteholders (as evidenced by an Officer's Certificate of the Servicer and an
outside Opinion of Counsel indicating that such amendment will not adversely
affect the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders), the holders of the
Certificates evidencing a majority of the outstanding Certificate Balance of the
Certificates (but excluding for purposes of calculation and action all
Certificates held by the Seller, the Servicer or any of their Affiliates unless
at such time all Certificates are then owned by the Seller, the Servicer and
their Affiliates), for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of those Noteholders or Certificateholders
which are not covered by the immediately preceding sentence.

         12.      SUCCESSOR AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement may not be assigned by
the Administrator unless such assignment is consented to in writing by the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, and the conditions
precedent to appointment of a successor Administrator set forth in Section 8 are
satisfied. An assignment with such consent and satisfaction, if accepted by the
assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the
Administrator is bound hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
may be assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to a corporation or other organization
that is a successor (by merger, consolidation or purchase of assets) to the
Administrator, provided that such successor organization executes and delivers
to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in which
such corporation or other organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the

                                       11
<PAGE>

terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Administrator is bound
hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind any successors or
assigns of the parties hereto.

         13.      GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without
reference to its conflict of law provisions (other than Section 5-1401 of the
General Obligations Law of the State of New York), and the obligations, rights
and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with
such laws.

         14.      NO PETITION. The Administrator, by entering into this
Administration Agreement, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any
time institute against the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Issuer
of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state
bankruptcy or similar law, in connection with any obligations relating to the
Notes, the Certificates or any of the Basic Documents.

         15.      HEADINGS. The section headings hereof have been inserted for
convenience of reference only and shall not be construed to affect the meaning,
construction or effect of this Agreement.

         16.      COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall together constitute but one and the same
agreement.

         17.      SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any one or more of the
agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason
whatsoever held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then such
agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement
or the other rights of the parties hereto.

         18.      NOT APPLICABLE TO NMAC IN OTHER CAPACITIES. Nothing in this
Agreement shall affect any obligation, right or benefit NMAC may have in any
other capacity or under any Basic Document.

         19.      LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF OWNER TRUSTEE AND INDENTURE
TRUSTEE. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this
instrument has been countersigned by Wilmington Trust Company, not in its
individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Owner Trustee of the Issuer,
and Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, not in its individual
capacity but solely in its capacity as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture and
in no event shall Wilmington Trust Company in its individual capacity, Wells
Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, in its individual capacity, or any
Certificateholder have any liability for the representations, warranties,
covenants, agreements or other obligations of the Issuer hereunder or in any of
the certificates, notices or agreements delivered pursuant hereto, as to all of
which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer.

                           YIELD SUPPLEMENT AGREEMENT

Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association

Minneapolis, MN 55479
Attn: Asset Backed Securities Department

Nissan Auto Receivables 2003-C Owner Trust
In care of: Wilmington Trust Company
Rodney Square North
1100 North Market Street
Wilmington, DE 19890
Attn: Nissan Auto Receivables 2003-C Owner Trust

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Nissan Auto Receivables Corporation II (the "Company") hereby confirms
arrangements made as of the date hereof with you, Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota,
National Association, as Indenture Trustee, and Wilmington Trust Company, as
Owner Trustee for the Nissan Auto Receivables 2003-C Owner Trust (the "Trust"),
for the benefit of the Noteholders, to be effective upon (i) receipt by the
Company of the enclosed copy of this letter agreement (the "Yield Supplement
Agreement"), executed by Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation ("NMAC"), the
Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, (ii) execution of the Purchase
Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the "Purchase Agreement"), between the
Company and NMAC, (iii) receipt by NMAC of the payment by the Company of the
purchase price under the Purchase Agreement, and (iv) the receipt by the Company
of the capital contribution of NMAC in connection with the payment of the
purchase price under the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and
not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in
the Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among NMAC, as
Servicer, the Company, and Nissan Auto Receivables 2003-C Owner Trust, as Issuer
(the "Sale and Servicing Agreement").

         1.       On or prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
notify the Company and the Owner Trustee of the "Yield Supplement Deposit" (as
defined below) for the related Distribution Date, the amount on deposit in the
Yield Supplement Account (as defined below), the Servicing Payment Deposit with
respect to the related Distribution Date and the amount of reinvestment income
during the related Collection Period on the Yield Supplement Account. The "Yield
Supplement Deposit" means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the amount by
which (i) the aggregate amount of interest that would have been due during the
related Collection Period on all Yield Supplemented Receivables (as defined
below) if such Yield Supplemented Receivables bore interest at the Required Rate
(as defined below) exceeds (ii) the amount of interest accrued on such Yield
Supplemented Receivables at their respective APRs and due during such Collection
Period. "Required Rate" means, with respect to each Collection Period, 4.16%.
"Yield Supplemented Receivable" means any Receivable that has an APR less than
the Required Rate.

         2.       On or before the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall
establish and maintain with the Securities Intermediary and pledge to the
Indenture Trustee a segregated trust account in the name of the Indenture
Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders (the "Yield Supplement Account") in
accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement to secure the payment
of interest on the Notes, or such other account as may be acceptable to the
Rating

<PAGE>

Agencies, and the Trust hereby grants to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit
of the Noteholders a first priority security interest in the Yield Supplement
Account and the monies on deposit and the other property that from time to time
comprise the Yield Supplement Account (including the Initial Yield Supplement
Amount), and any and all proceeds thereof (collectively, the "Yield Supplement
Account Property"). The Indenture Trustee shall possess all of the rights of a
secured party under the UCC with respect thereto. The Yield Supplement Account
Property and the Yield Supplement Account shall be under the sole dominion and
control of the Indenture Trustee. Neither the Company, the Trust nor any Person
claiming by, through or under the Company or the Trust shall have any right,
title or interest in, any control over the use of, or any right to withdraw from
amounts from, the Yield Supplement Account Property or the Yield Supplement
Account. All Yield Supplement Account Property in the Yield Supplement Account
shall be applied by the Relevant Trustee as specified in this Yield Supplement
Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Relevant Trustee shall, not
later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time on the Business Day preceding each
Distribution Date, withdraw from the Yield Supplement Account and deposit in the
Collection Account an amount equal to the Yield Supplement Deposit plus the
amount of reinvestment income on the Yield Supplement Account for such
Distribution Date.

         3.       On or prior to the date hereof, the Company shall make a
capital contribution to the Trust of $56,304,525.68 (the "Initial Yield
Supplement Amount"), by depositing such amount into the Yield Supplement
Account. The amount required to be on deposit in the Yield Supplement Account on
the date of issuance of the Notes and for each Distribution Date until the Notes
of all Classes have been paid in full or the Indenture is otherwise terminated
(the "Required Yield Supplement Amount"), as determined by the Servicer and
notified to the Relevant Trustee, means an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
aggregate amount of each Yield Supplement Deposit that will become due on each
future Distribution Date, assuming that payments on the Receivables are made on
their scheduled due dates, no Receivable becomes a prepaid Receivable and a
discount rate of 0.75%, and (ii) the Initial Yield Supplement Amount. The
Required Yield Supplement Amount may decline as a result of prepayments or
repayments in full of the Receivables. The Relevant Trustee shall have no duty
or liability to determine the Required Yield Supplement Amount and may fully
rely on the determination thereof by the Servicer. If, on any Distribution Date,
the funds in the Yield Supplement Account are in excess of the Required Yield
Supplement Amount for such Distribution Date after giving effect to all
distributions to be made on such Distribution Date, the Relevant Trustee shall
deposit the amount of such excess into the Collection Account for distribution
by the Relevant Trustee in accordance with the terms of Sections 5.06(c), (d),
(e) and (h) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Yield Supplement Account
shall be part of the Trust. It is the intent of the parties that the Yield
Supplement Account Property be treated as property of the Trust for all federal,
state and local income and franchise tax purposes. The provisions of this Yield
Supplement Agreement should be interpreted accordingly. Further, the Trust shall
include in its gross income all income earned on the Yield Supplement Account
Property and the Yield Supplement Account.

         4.       All or a portion of the Yield Supplement Account may be
invested and reinvested in the manner specified in Section 5.08 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement in accordance with written instructions from the Servicer or
the Secured Party (as defined in the Securities Account Control Agreement) under
the Securities Account Control Agreement, as the case may be. All such
investments shall be made in the name of the Relevant Trustee. Earnings on
investment of funds in the Yield Supplement Account shall be deposited in the
Collection Account on each Distribution Date, and losses and any investment
expenses shall be charged against the funds on deposit therein. Upon payment in
full of the Notes under the Indenture, as directed in writing by the Servicer,
the Indenture Trustee will release any amounts remaining on deposit in the Yield
Supplement Account to the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, which amounts the Owner Trustee shall deposit into the Trust
Collection Account, and the Company shall have no further obligation to pay to
the Servicer the Servicing Payment Deposit. If for any reason the Yield
Supplement Account is no longer an Eligible Deposit Account, the Relevant
Trustee shall promptly cause the Yield Supplement Account to be moved to another
institution or otherwise changed so that the Yield Supplement Account becomes an
Eligible Deposit Account.

         5.       Our agreements set forth in this Yield Supplement Agreement
are our primary obligations and such obligations are irrevocable, absolute and
unconditional, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff or defense
(other than full and strict compliance by us with our obligations hereunder) and
shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be
released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstances or condition
whatsoever.

         7.       THIS YIELD SUPPLEMENT AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK,
WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401
OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), AND THE OBLIGATIONS,
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DETERMINED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

this Yield Supplement Agreement shall be in writing, personally delivered, sent
by telecopier, sent by courier or mailed by certified mail, return receipt
requested, and shall be effective upon receipt thereof. All notices shall be
