TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS

 

Section 3.01.Initial Ownership.
Upon the formation of the Issuer by the contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05 and until the issuance of the Trust
Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Issuer.

 

Section 3.02.The Trust Certificates.
The Trust Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof; provided, however,
that one Trust Certificate may be issued in such denomination as required to include any residual amount. The Trust Certificates
shall be executed by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the
Owner Trustee and shall have deemed to have been validly issued when so executed and authenticated (as set forth in Section 3.03
below). Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures
were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Owner Trustee, shall be validly issued and binding obligations of the Issuer
and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication
and delivery of such Trust Certificates.

 

A transferee of a Trust Certificate shall
become a Certificateholder and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder hereunder
upon such transferee’s acceptance of a Trust Certificate duly registered in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.

 

Section 3.03.Authentication
and Delivery of Trust Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee shall cause to be authenticated and delivered upon
the order of the Depositor, in exchange for the Receivables and the other assets of the Issuer, simultaneously with the sale, assignment
and transfer to the Issuer of the Receivables, and the constructive delivery to the Issuer of the Receivable Files and the other
assets of the Issuer, Trust Certificates duly authenticated by the Owner Trustee, in authorized denominations equaling in the aggregate
the Original Certificate Balance and evidencing the entire ownership of the Issuer. No Trust Certificate shall entitle its Holder
to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Trust Certificate a certificate
of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or the Trust’s Authenticating
Agent, by manual signature; and such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Trust Certificate shall have
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Trust Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. Upon issuance,
authentication and delivery pursuant to the terms hereof, the Trust Certificates will be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.
Whenever, in any Basic Document, a reference is made to authentication by the Owner Trustee, such reference shall include authentication
by the Owner Trustee and/or authentication by a party appointed to act as the Authenticating Agent of the Owner Trustee.

Section 3.04.Registration
of Transfer and Exchange of Trust Certificates.

 

(a)The Certificate Registrar
shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, a Certificate Register in which, subject
to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall provide for the registration of Trust Certificates and of transfers
and exchanges of Trust Certificates as herein provided. The Owner Trustee shall act as initial Certificate Registrar. The Owner
Trustee may appoint an agent to act as Certificate Registrar. Upon any resignation of the Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee
shall promptly appoint a successor thereto.

 

The Trust Certificates have not been registered
under the Securities Act or listed on any securities exchange. No transfer of a Trust Certificate shall be made unless such transfer
is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is
exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities laws. In the event that a transfer
is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with
the Securities Act and such laws, the Holder desiring to effect such transfer and such Holder’s prospective transferee shall
each certify to the Issuer in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in the form of a Seller Certificate and Investment Letter
or a Rule 144A Letter. Except in the case of a transfer as to which the proposed transferee has provided a Rule 144A Letter, there
shall also be delivered to the Issuer an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities
Act and an Opinion of Counsel or memorandum of law that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from state securities
laws, which Opinion(s) of Counsel and memorandum of law shall not be an expense of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee. The Depositor
shall provide to any Holder of a Trust Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information regarding
the Trust Certificates and the Receivables and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility
set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Trust Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant
to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. Each Holder of a Trust Certificate desiring to effect such a transfer shall,
and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the
transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with federal and state securities laws. The Owner Trustee on behalf of the
Issuer shall cause each Trust Certificate to contain a legend in the form set forth on the form of Trust Certificate attached hereto
as Exhibit A.

 

(b)Upon surrender for registration
of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Registrar and subject to the satisfaction of the preceding
paragraph, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause its Authenticating Agent to authenticate and
deliver), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations
of a like aggregate original certificate balance dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any Authenticating Agent;
provided that prior to such execution, authentication and delivery, the Owner Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the proposed transfer will not cause the Issuer to be characterized, as an association (or a publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation or alter the tax characterization of the Notes for federal income tax purposes. At the option
of a Holder, Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other Trust Certificates of authorized denominations of a like aggregate original
certificate balance upon surrender of the Trust Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section
3.08.

 

    	10

    	 

    

(c)At the option of a Certificateholder,
Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate original certificate
balance upon surrender of the Trust Certificates to be exchanged at the office of the Certificate Registrar. Whenever any Trust
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall execute, authenticate and deliver
(or shall cause its Authenticating Agent to authenticate and deliver) the Trust Certificates that the Certificateholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
duly executed by the Holder or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

(d)No service charge shall be
made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates, but the Owner Trustee (or the Paying Agent) 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 Trust Certificates.

 

(e)The Trust Certificates may
not be acquired or held by or for the account of a Benefit Plan Investor or a person who is not a United States Person within the
meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code. No transfer of a Trust Certificate shall be made unless the prospective transferee
has certified to the Issuer in writing that it is not a Benefit Plan Investor.

 

(f)All Trust Certificates surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange, if surrendered to the Issuer or any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Issuer under this
Agreement, shall be delivered to the Owner Trustee and promptly cancelled by it, or, if surrendered to the Owner Trustee, shall
be promptly cancelled by it, and no Trust Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of
the provisions of this Agreement. The Owner Trustee shall dispose of cancelled Trust Certificates in accordance with its normal
practice.

 

(g)The preceding provisions of
this Section notwithstanding, the Owner Trustee shall not make, and the Certificate Registrar shall not register transfers or exchanges
of, Trust Certificates for a period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Trust Certificates.

 

Section 3.05.Mutilated, Destroyed,
Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates. If (i) any mutilated Trust Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the
Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Certificate and (ii)
there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to a Responsible Officer of the Owner Trustee that such Trust Certificate
has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall execute and the Owner Trustee or its
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate in an authorized denomination and of a like original certificate balance. In connection
with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate under this Section, the Owner Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not
the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

 

    	11

    	 

    

Section 3.06.Persons Deemed
Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Trust Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate is registered as the
owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any of their respective agents shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

Section 3.07.Access to List
of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer
and the Depositor, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Servicer or
the Depositor, a list, in such form as the Servicer or the Depositor may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders, or one or more Certificateholders evidencing
not less than 51% of the Percentage Interests of the Trust Certificates (hereinafter referred to as the “Applicants”),
apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Trust Certificates, then the Certificate Registrar
shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such Applicants access during normal business hours
to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed
not to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its
name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

 

Section 3.08.Maintenance of
Office or Agency. The Trust shall maintain an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee or its agent in respect of
the Trust Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Owner Trustee initially designates 190 South LaSalle Street,
7th Floor, Chicago, Illinois 60603, as its office for such purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the
Depositor and to the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

 

    	12

    	 

    

Section 3.09.Appointment of
Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant
to Sections 5.02 and 5.03 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have
the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred
to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion
that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Owner Trustee
shall act as the initial Paying Agent. Each Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written
notice to the Owner Trustee. In the event that the Owner Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall appoint
a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying
Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument in
which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that, as Paying Agent, such successor
Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for
the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The Paying Agent
shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all
funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04, 8.01 and 8.02 shall apply to the Owner
Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable,
to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying
agent unless the context requires otherwise.

 

Section 3.10.Definitive Trust
Certificates. The Trust Certificates, upon original issuance, will be issued in definitive, fully registered form.

 

Section 3.11.Repayment of
Trust Certificates. In the event of an optional purchase pursuant to Section 8.01 (a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
the Trust Certificates will be prepaid in whole, but not in part, at an aggregate prepayment price equal to the aggregate Certificate
Balance of all the Trust Certificates plus accrued interest thereon at the Certificate Rate.

APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

 

Section 5.01.Establishment
of Trust Account. The Owner Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain (or shall cause
to be established and maintained) in the name of the Issuer an Eligible Account (the “Certificate Distribution Account”),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

 

The Issuer shall possess all right, title
and interest in funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in the proceeds thereof. Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the
Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Owner Trustee ceases to be an Eligible Institution,
the Owner Trustee (or the Depositor on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate Distribution Account is not then held by
the Owner Trustee or an Affiliate thereof) shall cause the Certificate Distribution Account to be moved to an Eligible Institution
and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Certificate Distribution Account. Monies on deposit in the Certificate
Distribution Account may be invested in Eligible Investments upon the terms set forth in Section 4.01 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, as if the Certificate Distribution Account were an “Account”. Earnings on investments of funds in the Certificate
Distribution Account shall be paid to the Servicer as part of the Supplemental Servicing Fee and any losses and investment expenses
shall be charged against the funds in such account.

 

Section 5.02.Application of
Trust Funds.

 

(a)On each Payment Date, the
Paying Agent will distribute to Certificateholders, on the basis of the Percentage Interest evidenced by their Trust Certificates,
amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect
to such Payment Date.

 

(b)On each Payment Date, the
Paying Agent shall send to each Certificateholder the statement or statements provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant
to Section 4.10 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Payment Date.

 

(c)In the event that any withholding
tax is imposed on the Issuer’s payment (or allocations of income) to an Owner, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise
distributable to the Owner in accordance with this Section. The Paying Agent will retain from amounts otherwise distributable to
the Owners sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Issuer (but such authorization shall not prevent
the Owner Trustee or the Paying Agent from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment of such tax,
if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings) upon the written direction of the Depositor. The amount of any withholding
tax imposed with respect to an Owner shall be treated as cash distributed to such Owner at the time it is withheld by the Issuer
and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to
a distribution, the Paying Agent may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c).

 

    	15

    	 

    

Section 5.03.Method of Payment.
Subject to Section 9.01(c) respecting the final payment upon retirement of each Trust Certificate, distributions required to be
made to Certificateholders on any Payment Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date by
wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions at least
five Business Days prior to such Payment Date, or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such Holder
appearing in the Certificate Register.

 

Section 5.04.No Segregation
of Monies; No Interest. Subject to Sections 5.01 and 5.02, monies received by the Owner Trustee or the Paying Agent hereunder
need not be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law or the Sale and Servicing Agreement and may be deposited
under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and neither the Owner Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be liable for
any interest thereon.

 

Section 5.05.Accounting and
Reports to Owners, Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books
of the Issuer on a fiscal year basis ending March 31 of each year and the accrual method of accounting. In addition, the Issuer
shall deliver to each Owner such information, reports or statements prepared by the Administrator as may be required by the Code
and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required to enable each Owner to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.
Consistent with the Issuer’s characterization for tax purposes, as disregarded as an entity separate from the Owner, no federal
income tax return shall be filed on behalf of the Issuer unless either (i) the Owner Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel
that, based on a change in applicable law occurring after the date hereof, the Code requires such a filing or (ii) the Internal
Revenue Service shall determine that the Issuer is required to file such a return. Neither the Owner Trustee nor any Certificateholder
will, under any circumstances, and at any time, make an election on IRS Form 8832 or otherwise, to classify the Trust as an association
taxable as a corporation for federal, state or any other applicable tax purpose. In the event that the Issuer is required to file
tax returns, the Owner Trustee shall, to the extent not undertaken by the Administrator pursuant to the Administration Agreement,
prepare or shall cause to be prepared any tax returns required to be filed by the Issuer and shall remit such returns to the Depositor
(or if the Depositor no longer owns any Certificates, the Owner designated for such purpose by the Depositor to the Owner Trustee
in writing) at least five days before such returns are due to be filed. The Depositor (or such designee Owner, as applicable) shall
promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Owner Trustee and such returns shall be filed by the
Owner Trustee with the appropriate tax authorities. In no event shall the Owner Trustee or the Depositor (or such designee Owner,
as applicable) be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Issuer or the Noteholders arising out of the application
of any tax law, including federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income
(or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) except for any such liability,
cost or expense attributable to any act or omission by the Owner Trustee or the Depositor (or such designee Owner, as applicable),
as the case may be, in breach of its obligations under this Agreement.

The Depositor is authorized and directed

and forms required to be filed in accordance with applicable law or the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission.

Section 6.01.General Authority.
Subject to the provisions and limitations of Sections 2.03 and 2.06, the Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and
deliver the Basic Documents to which the Issuer is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit
to or contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Issuer is to be a party and any amendment or other agreement, as evidenced
conclusively by the Owner Trustee’s execution thereof. In addition to the foregoing, the Owner Trustee is authorized, but
shall not be obligated, to take all actions required of the Issuer pursuant to the Basic Documents. The Owner Trustee is further
authorized from time to time to take such action as the Administrator recommends with respect to the Basic Documents.

 

Section 6.02.General Duties.
Subject to the provisions and limitations of Sections 2.03 and 2.06, it shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or
cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which
the Issuer is a party and to administer the Issuer in the interest of the Owners, subject to the Basic Documents and in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its
duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Basic Documents to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Administration
Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Owner Trustee hereunder or under any Basic Document, and the Owner
Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration
Agreement.

 

Section 6.03.Action Upon Instruction.

 

(a)Subject to Article Four, in
accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Owners may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management
of the Issuer. Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Owners pursuant to Article Four.

 

(b)The Owner Trustee shall not
be required to take any action hereunder or under any other Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined,
or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is
contrary to the terms hereof or of any other Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

 

    	17

    	 

    

(c)Whenever the Owner Trustee
is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or under any other
Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to
the Owners requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith
in accordance with any written instruction of the Owners received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action
to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such
shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall
be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement and the other Basic Documents,
as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

 

(d)In the event that the Owner
Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any such provision is
ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that
this Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the
Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as
shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Owners requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee acts
or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable,
on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within
ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary
under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this
Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and shall have no liability
to any Person for such action or inaction.

 

Section 6.04.No Duties Except
as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make
any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to otherwise
take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee
is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the
Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any other Basic
Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement
in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to
it hereunder or to prepare or file any Commission filing for the Issuer or to record this Agreement or any other Basic Document.
The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to
discharge any liens (other than the lien of the Indenture) on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by, or
claims against, the Owner Trustee that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust Estate.

 

Section 6.05.No Action Except
Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise
deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate except in accordance with (i) the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon
the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the Basic Documents and (iii) any document or instruction delivered to the Owner

presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified. The Owner Trustee shall
give such notice to the Certificate Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent (if other than the Owner Trustee)
at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. Upon presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates, the Paying Agent
shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.02. The Owner
Trustee shall promptly notify the Administrator (who shall make such notice available to each Rating Agency pursuant to Section
1.02(c) of the Administration Agreement) upon the final payment of the Trust Certificates.

 

(d)In the event that all of the
Certificateholders shall not surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in
the above mentioned written notice, the Owner Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to
surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year
after the second notice all the Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take
appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender
of their Trust Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to

or examination by federal or state authorities and (v) have the Required Rating. If such person shall publish reports of condition

of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set
forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified

Section 10.02.Resignation
or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving
written notice thereof to the Administrator. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint
a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
Owner Trustee, and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition at
the Issuer’s expense any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

 

If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with Section 10.01 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator,
or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of
the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee
or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Administrator may remove
the Owner Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence,
the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee and shall pay all fees
and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

 

Any resignation or removal of the Owner
Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective
until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 and payment of all fees and expenses owed
to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to each
Rating Agency pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the Administration Agreement.

 

Section 10.03.Successor Owner
Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator
and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective, and such successor Owner Trustee without any further act, deed
or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement,
with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and expenses
deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement and the Administrator
and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required
for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

 

    	26

    	 

    

No successor Owner Trustee shall accept
appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant
to Section 10.01.

 

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor
Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Administrator shall mail notice thereof to all Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee
and the Noteholders; and, in the case of each Rating Agency, shall make such notice available pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the
Administration Agreement. If the Administrator shall fail to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of such appointment
by the successor Owner Trustee the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Administrator.

 

Section 10.04.Merger or Consolidation
of Owner Trustee. Any Person into which the Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated,
or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Owner Trustee shall be the successor of the Owner
Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, that such Person shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01 and, provided,
further, that the Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or consolidation to the Administrator (who shall make such notice
available to each Rating Agency pursuant to Section 1.02(c) of the Administration Agreement).

 

Section 10.05.Appointment
of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of
meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the
time be located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all
instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Administrator and Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the
Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person,
in such capacity, such title to the Trust or any part thereof and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers,
duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator
shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, the Owner Trustee alone
shall have the power to make such appointment. The Owner Trustee agrees that upon receipt of a written request from the Administrator
to appoint a co-trustee, it will, at the expense of the Issuer, either (i) promptly provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrator that such co-trustee is not required or (ii) cooperate fully to ensure a co-trustee is appointed with any required
timeframe. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor
Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01, except that such co-trustee or successor trustee shall have the Required Rating, and no
notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03.

 

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

 

    	27

    	 

    

(a)all rights, powers, duties
and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee
and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized
to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in
which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act
or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner 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 Owner Trustee;

 

(b)no trustee under this Agreement
shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

 

(c)the Administrator and the
Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

 

Any notice, request or other writing given
to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as
if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the
conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested
with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as
may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement
relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall
be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

 

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at
any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited
by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee
shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall
vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor co-trustee
or separate trustee.

delivery thereof by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, have been satisfied. The Owner Trustee may, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under

	0.00% ASSET BACKED CERTIFICATE

 

 

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the Issuer, as
defined below, the property of which includes a pool of retail installment sale or conditional sale contracts secured by new and
used Honda and Acura motor vehicles (including automobiles and light-duty trucks).

 

(This Trust Certificate does not represent
an interest in or obligation of American Honda Receivables LLC, American Honda Finance Corporation or any of their respective affiliates.)

 

THIS CERTIFIES THAT American Honda Receivables
LLC is the registered owner of a 100 percent nonassessable, fully-paid, undivided interest in the Honda Auto Receivables
2012-2 Owner Trust (the “Issuer”), formed by American Honda Receivables LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Depositor”).

 

The Issuer was created pursuant to a Trust
Agreement dated as of March 20, 2012, as amended and restated by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement dated April 25, 2012 (as
amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), among the Depositor and U.S. Bank Trust National
Association, as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth below. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Trust
Agreement.

 

    	A-1

    	 

    

This Trust Certificate is one of the duly
authorized certificates designated as “Asset Backed Certificates” (the “Trust Certificates”). Issued under
an Indenture dated April 25, 2012 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as
indenture trustee, are four classes of Notes designated as “Class A-1 0.30112% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-2
0.56% Asset Backed Notes”, “Class A-3 0.70% Asset Backed Notes” and “Class A-4 0.91% Asset Backed Notes”
(collectively, the “Notes”). This Trust Certificate is issued under and is subject to terms, provisions and conditions
of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the Holder of this Trust Certificate, by virtue of its acceptance thereof, assents
and by which such Holder is bound. The property of the Issuer includes, among other things, a pool of retail installment sale or
conditional sale contracts for new and used Honda and Acura motor vehicles (including automobiles and light-duty trucks) (collectively,
the “Receivables”), all monies received on or in respect of the Receivables on or after April 1, 2012, security interests
in the vehicles financed thereby, certain bank accounts and the proceeds thereof, proceeds from claims on certain insurance policies
and certain other rights under the Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and all proceeds of the foregoing.

 

It is the intent of the Depositor, the Servicer
and the Certificateholder that, solely for purposes of federal income, state and local income tax and any other income taxes, the
Issuer will be treated as a disregarded entity not separate from the sole Certificateholder. The purchaser hereof, by acceptance
of the Trust Certificates, agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the above treatment for so long as it is the
sole Owner.

 

Solely in the event the Trust Certificates
are held by more than a single Owner, it is the intent of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Certificateholders that, solely for
purposes of federal income, state and local income and single business tax and any other income taxes, the Issuer will be treated
as a partnership and the Certificateholders will be treated as partners in the partnership. The purchaser hereof and the other
Certificateholders, by acceptance of a Trust Certificate, agree to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment
of, the Trust Certificates for such tax purposes as partnership interests in the Issuer.

 

Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance
of a Trust Certificate, covenants and agrees that such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against the Depositor,
or join in any institution against the Depositor 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 Trust Certificates, the Notes, the Trust Agreement or any other Basic Document.

 

Distributions on this Trust Certificate
will be made as provided in the Trust Agreement by the Owner Trustee by wire transfer or check mailed to the Certificateholder
of record in the Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of this Trust Certificate or the making of any notation
hereon. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Trust
Certificate will be made after due notice by the Owner Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation
and surrender of this Trust Certificate at the office or agency maintained for the purpose by the Owner Trustee.

 

Reference is hereby made to the further
provisions of this Trust Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the
same effect as if set forth at this place.

 

    	A-2

    	 

    

Unless the certificate of authentication
hereon shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee or the authenticating agent, by manual signature,
this Trust Certificate shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement
or be valid for any purpose.

 

THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, 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.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner Trustee, on
behalf of the Issuer and not in its individual capacity, has caused this Trust Certificate to be duly executed.

[REVERSE OF TRUST
CERTIFICATE]

 

The Trust Certificates do not represent
an obligation of, or an interest in, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or any of their respective affiliates and no
recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust
Agreement or the other Basic Documents. In addition, this Trust Certificate is not guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality
and is limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries with respect to the Receivables (and certain other amounts),
all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. A copy of each of the Sale and Servicing Agreement
and the Trust Agreement may be examined by any Certificateholder upon written request during normal business hours at the principal
office of the Depositor and at such other places, if any, designated by the Depositor.

 

The Trust Agreement permits, with certain
exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor and the
rights of the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement at any time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of
the Trust Certificates and the Notes, each voting as a class, evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced
by the outstanding Trust Certificates, or a majority of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes of each such class. Any
such consent by the Holder of this Trust Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of
this Trust Certificate and of any Trust Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether
or not notation of such consent is made upon this Trust Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in
certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Trust Certificates.

 

As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject
to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Trust Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon
surrender of this Trust Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained
by the Owner Trustee, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more
new Trust Certificates evidencing the same original certificate balance in the Issuer will be issued to the designated transferee.

 

Except as provided in the Trust Agreement,
the Trust Certificates are issuable only as registered Trust Certificates. As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Trust Certificates are exchangeable for new Trust Certificates evidencing the same aggregate original
certificate balance, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration
of transfer or exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

 

The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar
and any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Trust Certificate is registered
as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any such agent shall be affected
by any notice to the contrary.

 

    	A-4

    	 

    

The obligations and responsibilities created
by the Trust Agreement and the Issuer created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required
to be paid to them pursuant to the Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the disposition of all property held
as part of the Owner Trust Estate. The Servicer of the Receivables may at its option purchase the Owner Trust Estate at a price
specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such purchase of the Receivables and other property of the Issuer will effect
early retirement of the Trust Certificates; provided, however, such right of purchase is exercisable only as of the last day of
any Collection Period as of which the Pool Balance is less than or equal to 10% of the Original Pool Balance.

 

The Trust Certificates may not be acquired
or held by a Benefit Plan Investor or a person who is not a United States Person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the
Code. By accepting and holding this Trust Certificate, the Holder hereof shall be required to have represented and warranted that
it is not a Benefit Plan Investor.
