                       [AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES LETTERHEAD]

Date:         February 26, 2002

To:           Alain Couder

From:         Ned Barnholt

Subject:      Separation from Agilent Technologies

The following documents our verbal agreement regarding your resignation as
Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer effective March 1, 2002,
and your termination of employment from Agilent Technologies on or before May
31, 2002.

When we decided that you would look for opportunities to be a CEO outside
Agilent, you agreed to continue in the role of COO during Agilent's search for
your replacement. Your replacement has been identified, thus your last day as
COO will be March 1, 2002.

On March 4, 2002, you will begin taking time off using a combination of your
earned Flexible Time Off (FTO) and time off without pay. Your employment with
Agilent may not extend beyond May 31, 2002. Should you secure employment with
another firm, your employment will be terminated effective on your acceptance of
new employment. During this time, you shall make yourself available to Agilent
upon request to assist in the transition of your former workload to other
employees, to answer any questions regarding matters assigned to you prior to
the effective date of your resignation, and to otherwise assist Agilent in
transferring your responsibilities to others within the company.

Although you may not be actively performing work for Agilent from March 1, 2002
through May 31, 2002, as an employee of Agilent you remain subject to the
Standards of Business Conduct.

As discussed, Agilent commits the following:

   1. Agilent will pay to you a severance bonus payment in the gross amount of
      $2,000,000, to be reduced by applicable withholding. This bonus payment
      will be paid to you after a signed Settlement Agreement & General Release,
      in substantially the form attached, becomes effective, after the lapse of
      all time periods contemplated by the release.

<PAGE>
   2. On your termination date, all unvested stock options will be accelerated
      and vested. The post-termination exercise period will be three months.

   3. Medical coverage, Deferred Compensation, 401(k) Plan, and Excess Benefit
      Plan monies, as well as any other benefits not mentioned above, will be
      treated in accordance with then-existing plan documents for a standard
      termination.

In addition, in the unlikely event of death prior to your termination, your
stock options would be treated in accordance with the then-existing plan
document. Other benefits such as Medical coverage, Deferred Compensation, 401(k)
Plan, and Excess Benefit Plan monies will be treated in accordance with
then-existing plan documents.

You agree that you will not disclose the existence or contents of this letter or
any past or future related discussions or documentation to anyone other than
your spouse and/or personal advisors until Agilent makes any required disclosure
of this agreement and the Settlement Agreement and General Release, currently
contemplated to be filed as part of its Q2 10-Q in early June, 2002.

Alain, thank you for your contributions to the creation and successes of Agilent
Technologies. Best wishes in your next endeavors.

Sincerely,

Ned Barnholt

I agree to the terms and conditions as set forth in this letter and understand
that the terms cannot modified except in writing by Agilent's Chief Executive
Officer.

            Section 2.04. TEMPORARY TRANSITION BONDS.

            (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Transition Bonds
pursuant to Section 2.13, or in the case of Transition Bonds held in a
book-entry only system by a Clearing Agency, a Manager may execute, and upon
receipt of an Issuer Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary
Transition Bonds that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or
otherwise produced, of the tenor of the definitive Transition Bonds in lieu of
which they are issued and with such variations not inconsistent with the terms
of this Indenture as the Manager executing such Transition Bonds may determine,
as evidenced by such Manager's execution of such Transition Bonds.

            (b) If temporary Transition Bonds are issued, the Issuer shall cause
definitive Transition Bonds to be prepared without unreasonable delay except
where temporary Transition Bonds are held by a Clearing Agency. After the
preparation of definitive Transition Bonds, the temporary Transition Bonds shall
be exchangeable for definitive Transition Bonds upon surrender of the temporary
Transition Bonds at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as
provided in

                                       10
<PAGE>
Section 3.02, without charge to any Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of
any one or more temporary Transition Bonds, a Manager shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like Series (and
if applicable, Class) and aggregate initial principal amount of definitive
Transition Bonds in Authorized Denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary
Transition Bonds shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under
this Indenture as definitive Transition Bonds.

            Section 2.05. REGISTRATION; REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

                    (a) The Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the
"Transition Bond Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as
it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Transition
Bonds and the registration of transfers of Transition Bonds. The Trustee shall
be the registrar (the Trustee or any successor thereof in such capacity, the
"Transition Bond Registrar") for the purpose of registering Transition Bonds and
transfers of Transition Bonds as herein provided. Upon any resignation of any
Transition Bond Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, if
it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Transition Bond
Registrar.

                    (b) If a Person other than the Trustee is appointed by the
Issuer as Transition Bond Registrar, the Issuer shall give the Trustee and any
transfer, paying or listing agent of the Issuer appointed pursuant to Section
3.02(b) prompt written notice of the appointment of such Transition Bond
Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location, of the Transition
Bond Register; the Trustee and any such agent shall have the right to inspect
the Transition Bond Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies
thereof; and the Trustee and any such agent shall have the right to rely upon a
certificate executed on behalf of the Transition Bond Registrar by a duly
authorized officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Holders of the
Transition Bonds and the original and Outstanding principal amounts and number
of such Transition Bonds (separately stated by Series and, if applicable,
Class).

                    (c) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Transition Bond at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as
provided in Section 3.02, a Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall execute, and
the Trustee shall authenticate and the Transition Bondholder shall obtain from
the Trustee, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or
more new Transition Bonds in any Authorized Denominations, of a like Series
(and, if applicable, Class) and aggregate initial principal amount.

                    (d) At the option of the Holder, Transition Bonds may be
exchanged for other Transition Bonds of a like Series (and, if applicable,
Class) and aggregate initial principal amount in Authorized Denominations, upon
surrender of the Transition Bonds to be exchanged at the office or agency of the
Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.02. Whenever any Transition
Bonds are so surrendered for exchange, a Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and the Transition Bondholder shall
obtain from the Trustee, the Transition Bonds that the Transition Bondholder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.

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

                                       11
<PAGE>
            (f) Every Transition Bond presented or surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed
by, the Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing,
with such signature guaranteed by an Eligible Guarantor Institution in the form
set forth in such Transition Bond.

            (g) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration
of transfer or exchange of Transition Bonds (except as may be required by the
rules and regulations of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange with respect to any
Transition Bonds listed thereon), but, other than in respect of exchanges
pursuant to Sections 2.04 or 9.06 not involving any transfer, the Issuer may
require payment by such Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of
transfer or exchange of Transition Bonds, including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee.

            (h) The preceding provisions of this Section 2.05 notwithstanding,
except to the extent otherwise required by the rules and regulations of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange with respect to any Transition Bonds listed thereon,
the Issuer shall not be required to make, and the Transition Bond Registrar need
not register, transfers or exchanges of Transition Bonds selected for redemption
or transfers or exchanges of any Transition Bond for a period of 15 days
preceding the date on which final payment of principal is to be made with
respect to such Transition Bond.

            Section 2.06. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN TRANSITION BONDS.

                    (a) If (i) any mutilated Transition Bond is surrendered to
the Trustee, or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Transition Bond, and (ii) there is delivered
to the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the
Issuer and the Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer,
the Transition Bond Registrar or the Trustee that such Transition Bond has been
acquired by a protected purchaser, a Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall
execute, and upon a Manager's request the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Transition Bond, a replacement Transition Bond of like Series (and, if
applicable, Class), tenor and initial principal amount in Authorized
Denominations, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding; provided,
however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Transition Bond, but not a
mutilated Transition Bond, shall have become or within seven days shall be due
and payable, or shall have been called for redemption, instead of issuing a
replacement Transition Bond, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen
Transition Bond when so due or payable or upon the Redemption Date without
surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Transition Bond or
payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Transition Bond pursuant to the proviso
to the preceding sentence, a protected purchaser of the original Transition Bond
in lieu of which such replacement Transition Bond was issued presents for
payment such original Transition Bond, the Issuer and the Trustee shall be
entitled to recover such replacement Transition Bond (or such payment) from the
Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Transition
Bond from such Person to whom such replacement Transition Bond was delivered or
any assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled
to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any
loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee in
connection therewith.

            (b) Every replacement Transition Bond issued pursuant to this
Section 2.06 in replacement

                                       12
<PAGE>
of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Transition Bond shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Transition Bond 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 Transition Bonds
duly issued hereunder.

            (c) The provisions of this Section 2.06 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 Transition
Bonds.

            Section 2.07. PERSONS DEEMED OWNER.

            Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any
Transition Bond, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Transition Bond is registered (as
of the day of determination) as the owner of such Transition Bond for the
purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest on such Transition
Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Transition Bond
be overdue, and neither the Issuer or the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or
the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

            Section 2.08. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST; INTEREST ON OVERDUE
PRINCIPAL; PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

                    (a) The Transition Bonds shall accrue interest as provided
in the form of Transition Bond attached to the Series Supplement for such
Transition Bonds, at the applicable Interest Rate specified therein, and such
interest shall be payable on each Payment Date as specified therein. Any
installment of interest or principal payable on any Transition Bond that 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 Transition Bond (or one or
more Predecessor Transition Bonds) is registered on the Record Date for such
Payment Date, in the manner specified in the related Series Supplement, and if
not specified therein, either (i) by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid
to such Person's address as it appears on the Transition Bond Register on such
Record Date or (ii) with respect to Transition Bonds registered on a Record Date
in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be
Cede & Co.), payments shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available
funds to the account designated by such nominee, except for the final
installment of principal payable with respect to such Transition Bond on a
Payment Date, which shall be payable as provided in clause (b) below. The funds
represented by any such checks or other amounts returned undelivered shall be
held in accordance with Section 3.03.

            (b) The principal of each Transition Bond of each Series (and, if
applicable, Class) shall be payable in installments on each Payment Date
specified in the Expected Amortization Schedule included in the form of
Transition Bond attached to the Series Supplement for such Transition Bonds, but
only to the extent that moneys are available for such payment pursuant to
Section 8.02. Failure to pay in accordance with such Expected Amortization
Schedule because moneys are not so available pursuant to Section 8.02 to make
such payments shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under this
Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire Outstanding principal
amount of the Transition Bonds of any Series or Class shall be due and payable,
if not previously paid, either: (i) on the Final Maturity Date therefor, (ii) on
the date on which the Transition Bonds of all Series have been declared
immediately due and payable in accordance with Section 5.02 or (iii) on the
Redemption Date, if any, therefor. The Trustee shall notify the Person in whose
name a

                                       13
<PAGE>
Transition Bond is registered, at the close of business on the second Record
Date preceding the Payment Date on which the Issuer expects the final
installment of principal of and interest on such Transition Bond to be paid.
Such notice shall be mailed no later than five days prior to such final Payment
Date, shall specify that such final installment of principal will be payable
only upon presentation and surrender of such Transition Bond and shall specify
the place where such Transition Bond may be presented and surrendered for
payment of such installment, which, so long as any Transition Bonds are listed
on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, shall include the office of the paying agent
in Luxembourg appointed pursuant to Section 3.02(b). The Trustee shall also
arrange for such notice to be published in an Authorized Newspaper not later
than the fifth day of the month of the expected payment of such final
installment. Notices in connection with redemptions of Transition Bonds shall
also be mailed to Transition Bondholders as provided in Section 10.03.

            (c) If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the
Transition Bonds of any Series or in the payment of any amount payable to any
counterparty under any Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Issuer shall pay
defaulted interest, plus interest on such defaulted interest at the applicable
Interest Rate in any lawful manner. The Issuer may pay such defaulted interest
to the Persons who, on a subsequent special record date (which date shall be at
least five Business Days prior to the payment date), are Transition Bondholders
at the rate specified in the related Series Supplement. In addition, the Issuer
may pay amounts to any counterparty under any Interest Rate Swap Agreement, at
the rate specified in the related Interest Rate Swap Agreement. In the case of a
default in a payment of interest on the Transition Bonds of any Series, the
Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment
date, and, at least 15 days before any such special record date, the Issuer
shall mail to each affected Transition Bondholder a notice that states the
special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be
paid.

            Section 2.09. CANCELLATION.

            All Transition Bonds 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 canceled by the
Trustee. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any
Transition Bonds previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the
Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Transition Bonds so
delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Transition Bonds shall
be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Transition Bonds canceled
pursuant to this Section 2.09, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.
All canceled Transition Bonds 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 Transition
Bonds have not been previously disposed of by the Trustee.

BONDS.

                     with the related Bill of Sale are effective to create, in
                     favor of the Issuer, a valid security interest (as such
                     term is defined in Section 1-201 of the New Jersey UCC) in
                     the Seller's rights in the Bondable Transition Property
                     described in the Bill of Sale, which security interest if

                     amount paid by the Issuer for such Bondable Transition
                     Property, it being noted that the term "security interest"

                     account and no opinion need be expressed as to the proper
                     characterization of the transfer of such Bondable

                     of the Seller (other than the Lien created by the Seller in
                     favor of the Issuer pursuant to the Sale Agreement) is
                     equal or prior to the security interest of the Issuer in

                     (I) upon the giving of value by the Trustee to the Issuer
              with respect to the Collateral,

                            (1) this Indenture creates in favor of the Trustee,

                     valid security interest in the rights of the Issuer in, to
                     and under that portion of the Collateral subject to Article
                     9 of

                                       17

                     in accordance with the New Jersey UCC, such security
                     interest will be perfected, and

                            (3) based solely on a review of the UCC Search
                     Reports, no other security interest of any other creditor
                     of the Issuer is equal or prior to the security interest of
                     the Trustee for the benefit of the Transition Bondholders
                     in the Article 9 Collateral;

                     (J) this Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust
              Indenture Act and either the Series Supplement for the Transition
              Bonds being issued, has been duly qualified under the Trust
              Indenture Act or no such qualification of such Series Supplement
              is necessary;

                     Transition Bonds being issued is effective under the
                     Securities Act of 1933 and, to the best of such counsel's
                     knowledge and information, no stop order suspending the
                     effectiveness of such registration statement has been
                     issued under the Securities Act of 1933 nor have
                     proceedings therefor been instituted or threatened by the
                     Commission or

                            (2) the Transition Bonds being issued are exempt
                     from the registration requirements under the Securities Act
                     of 1933; and

                     (M) the Issuer is not now and, following the issuance of

       recalculations of calculations and information provided by the Issuer as
       they have deemed necessary for the purpose of determining, and have

                                       18
<PAGE>
       the Series Issuance Date in the Subaccounts for each Series (after giving

       Trustee that the Required Capital Amount for such Series has been
       credited to the Capital Subaccount for such Series.

       Agency that such action will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of
       the then current rating by such Rating Agency of any Outstanding Series

Series or Class thereof, the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such
percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect
from Transition Bond Owners or Clearing Agency Participants owning or
representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest
in the Transition Bonds or such Series or Class and has delivered such
instructions to the Trustee.

majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of all Series advise
the Trustee through the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a
book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests
of the Transition Bond Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all
affected Transition Bond Owners and the Trustee of the occurrence of any such
event and of the availability of Definitive Transition Bonds to affected
Transition Bond Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the
typewritten Transition Bond or Transition

       (b) The Issuer shall 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 3.03, that such Paying
Agent will:

              (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of or
       interest on the Transition Bonds in trust for the benefit of the Persons
       entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or
       otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such
       Persons as herein provided;

              (ii) give the Trustee notice of any Default by the Issuer (or any
       other obligor upon the Transition Bonds) of which such Paying Agent has
       actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with
       respect to the Transition Bonds;

              (iii) at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon

       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 such Paying Agent in trust for the payment of
       Transition Bonds if at any time such Paying Agent ceases to meet the
       standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its
       appointment; and

              (v) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the

                                       22

discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer; and the Holder of such
Transition Bond 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 or such Paying Agent with respect
to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee
or such Paying Agent, 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 the City of New York, and in an Authorized Newspaper,
notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication,
any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall 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 (including mailing
notice of such repayment to Holders whose Transition Bonds have been called but

due and payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Trustee

Hedge Agreement and any Interest Rate Swap Agreement and to compel or secure the
performance and observance by the Seller and the Servicer and any counterparty

Bonds of all Series or (ii) with respect to any Interest Rate Swap Agreement,
the Holders of that percentage

                                       28
<PAGE>
of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of the related Class specified
in the related Series Supplement, shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers,
privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Seller, the Servicer, the
Administrator or any counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate
Swap Agreement in connection with the Sale Agreement, the Servicing Agreement,
the Administration Agreement, such Hedge Agreement or such Interest Rate Swap
Agreement, as the case may be, including the right or power to take any action
to compel or secure performance or observance by, as the case may be, the
Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator, or such counterparty of each of their
respective obligations to the Issuer thereunder, and to give any consent,

right of the Issuer to take any such action shall be suspended.

       (c) With the consent of the Trustee, the Sale Agreement, the Servicing
Agreement and the Administration Agreement may be amended at any time and from
time to time, so long as the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect
to such amendment, without the consent of the Transition Bondholders or the
counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or any Interest Rate Swap Agreement.
However, such amendment may not adversely affect in any material respect (i) the
interest of any Transition Bondholder without the consent of the Holders of a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of each Series or
Class materially and adversely affected thereby, or (ii) the interest of any
counterparty under any Interest Rate Swap Agreement without the consent of each
such counterparty materially and adversely affected thereby. Further, with the
consent of the Trustee and the counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or
Interest Rate Swap Agreement, such Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap
Agreement, as the case may be, may be amended at any time and from time to time,

amendment; provided, however, that no such amendment may adversely affect in any
material respect the interest of any Transition Bondholder or any counterparty
under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement without the consent of
66 2/3% of the Holders of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of each
Series or Class and each such counterparty materially and adversely affected
thereby.

       (d) If the Issuer, the Seller or the Servicer proposes to amend, modify,
waive, supplement, terminate or surrender, or agree to any amendment,
modification, waiver, supplement, termination, or surrender of, the terms of the
Sale Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, the Administration Agreement or any
Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement, or waive timely performance or
observance thereunder by the Seller, the Servicer or the relevant counterparty,
respectively, in each case in such a way as would materially and adversely
affect the interests of any Class of any Series of Transition Bondholders or the
counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the
Issuer shall first notify the Rating Agencies of the proposed amendment,
modification, waiver, supplement, termination or surrender. Upon receiving
notification regarding whether the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied
with respect to such proposed action, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee, and
the Trustee shall notify the Transition Bondholders and each counterparty under
such Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement, if applicable, of such
proposed action and whether the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with
respect thereto. With respect to any such proposed action related to the Sale
Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or the Administration Agreement, the Trustee
shall consent to such proposed action only (i) with the consent of the Holders
of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of each Class of
each Series, and each counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate
Swap Agreement, in each case if such counterparty is materially and adversely
affected thereby and

                                       29
<PAGE>
(ii) upon satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. With respect to any such
proposed action related to any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement,
the Trustee shall consent to such proposed action only (x) with the consent of
the Holders representing 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition
Bonds of the related Series or Class, as the case may be, and each counterparty
under such Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement, as the case may be,
materially and adversely affected thereby and (y) upon satisfaction of the
Rating Agency Condition with respect to such action. If any such amendment,
modification, supplement or waiver shall be so consented to by the Trustee or
such Holders, the Issuer shall execute and deliver, in its own name and at its
own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other documents as may
be necessary or appropriate in the circumstances. For so long as any of the
Transition Bonds are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of
that exchange so require, notice of such proposed action shall be published by
an agent to be appointed by the Issuer in an Authorized Newspaper promptly
following its effectiveness.

       (e) If the Issuer or the Servicer proposes to amend, modify, waive,
supplement, terminate or surrender in any material respect, or to agree to any
material amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination or surrender
of, the Transition Bond Charge Adjustment Process, the Issuer shall notify the
Trustee and the Trustee shall notify Transition Bondholders of such proposal,
and the Trustee shall consent thereto only with the consent of the Holders a
majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of each Series
materially and adversely affected thereby and only if the Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied with respect thereto.

       (f) Promptly following a default by, as applicable, the Seller, the
Servicer or a counterparty under the Sale Agreement, the Servicing Agreement,
any Hedge Agreement or any Interest Rate Swap Agreement, and at the Issuer's
expense, the Issuer shall take all such lawful actions as the Trustee may
request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller, the
Servicer or such counterparty, as the case may be, of its obligations to the
Issuer thereunder or in connection therewith in accordance with the terms
thereof, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges
lawfully available to the Issuer thereunder or in connection therewith, to the
extent and in the manner directed by the Trustee, including the transmission of
notices of default on the part of the Seller, the Servicer or such counterparty,
as the case may be, thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative
actions or proceedings to compel or secure its performance of its obligations
thereunder.

       (g) If the Issuer shall have actual knowledge of the occurrence of a
Servicer Default under the Servicing Agreement or an event of default,
termination event or downgrade event under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate
Swap Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly give written notice thereof to the
Trustee and the Rating Agencies, and shall specify in such notice what action,
if any, the Issuer is taking with respect to such default or event.

       (h) If a Servicer Default shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to
perform any of its duties or obligations under the Servicing Agreement with
respect to the Bondable Transition Property or the Transition Bond Charge, the
Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure.
The Issuer shall not take any action to terminate the Servicer's rights and
powers under the Servicing Agreement following a Servicer Default without the
prior written consent of the Trustee and of the Holders of a majority of the
Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of all Series.

                                       30
<PAGE>
       (i) As promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to
the Servicer and the Rating Agencies of the Servicer's rights and powers
pursuant to Section 6.01 of the Servicing Agreement, the Trustee, with the
consent of the Holders of Transition Bonds evidencing not less than a majority
of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of all Series, may appoint a
successor Servicer (the "Successor Servicer"), and such Successor Servicer shall
accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the
Issuer and the Trustee. A person shall qualify as a Successor Servicer only if
such Person satisfies the requirements of Section 6.04 of the Servicing
Agreement. In connection with any such appointment, the Issuer may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such Successor Servicer as it and such
Successor Servicer shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and
in the Servicing Agreement, and in accordance with Section 6.04 of the Servicing
Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such Successor Servicer
for the servicing of the Bondable Transition Property (such agreement to be in
form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee).

       (j) Upon termination of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to the
Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer, the
Transition Bondholders and the Rating Agencies of such termination. As soon as a

pay all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon it or
any of its properties or assets or with respect to any of its franchises,

              therefor;

              (ii) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums
       payable hereunder by the Issuer with respect to such Series; and

satisfied and discharged pursuant to Section 4.01(a) or 4.01(b) and have been
paid in full. Thereafter, the obligations in Sections 6.07 and 4.04 with respect

       Section 4.02. CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE.

       (a) The Issuer may exercise the Legal Defeasance Option or the Covenant
Defeasance Option with respect to any Series of Transition Bonds only if:

              (i) the Issuer irrevocably deposits or causes to be deposited in
       trust with the Trustee cash or U.S. Government Obligations for the
       payment of principal of and interest and premium, if any, on such Series
       of Transition Bonds to the Expected Final Payment Date or Redemption Date
       therefor, as applicable, such deposit to be made in the Defeasance
       Subaccount for such Series of Transition Bonds;

              (ii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee a certificate from a
       nationally recognized firm of Independent accountants expressing its
       opinion that the payments of principal and interest when due and without
       reinvestment on the deposited U.S. Government Obligations plus any
       deposited cash without investment will provide cash at such times and in
       such amounts (but, in the case of the Legal Defeasance Option only, not
       more than such amounts) as will be sufficient to pay in respect of the
       Transition Bonds of such Series (A) subject to clause (B), principal in
       accordance with the Expected Amortization Schedule therefor, (B) if such
       Series is to be redeemed, the Redemption Price therefor on the Redemption
       Date therefor and (C) interest when due;

              (iii) in the case of the Legal Defeasance Option, 95 days pass
       after the deposit is made and during such 95 day period no Default
       specified in Section 5.01(e) or 5.01(f) occurs that is continuing at the
       end of such period; provided, however, that in determining whether a

                                       33
<PAGE>
       default under Section 5.01(e) has occurred, the requirement that the
       decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for 90 days shall be
       disregarded;

              (iv) no Default has occurred and is continuing on the day of such
       deposit and after giving effect thereto;

              (v) in the case of the Legal Defeasance Option, the Issuer
       delivers to the Trustee an Issuer Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the
       Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal
       Revenue Service a ruling, or (B) since the date of execution of this
       Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax
       law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion
       shall confirm that, the Holders of the Transition Bonds of such Series
       will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes
       as a result of the exercise of such Legal Defeasance Option and will be
       subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and
       at the same times as would have been the case if such legal defeasance
       had not occurred;

              (vi) in the case of the Covenant Defeasance Option, the Issuer
       delivers to the Trustee an Issuer Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
       the Holders of the Transition Bonds of such Series will not recognize
       income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the
       exercise of such Covenant Defeasance Option and will be subject to
       federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the
       same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had
       not occurred; and

              (vii) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Issuer Officer's
       Certificate and an Issuer Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
       conditions precedent to the satisfaction and discharge of the Transition
       Bonds of such Series to the extent contemplated by this Article IV have
       been complied with.

       (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.02 to the
contrary, no delivery of cash or U.S. Government Obligations to the Trustee
under this Section 4.02 shall terminate any obligations of the Issuer under this
Indenture with respect to any Transition Bonds that are to be redeemed prior to
the Expected Final Payment Date therefor until such Transition Bonds shall have
been irrevocably called or designated for redemption on a date thereafter on
which such Transition Bonds may be redeemed in accordance with the provisions of
this Indenture and either (i) proper notice of such redemption shall have been
given in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture or (ii) the Issuer
shall have given the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, irrevocable
instructions to give, in the manner and at the times prescribed herein, notice
of redemption of such Series.

       Section 4.03. APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY.

       All moneys or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee
pursuant to Sections 4.01 or 4.02 with respect to any Series of Transition Bonds
shall be held in trust in the Defeasance Subaccount for such Series and applied
by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Transition Bonds and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent, as the
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the particular Transition Bonds for the
payment or redemption of which such moneys or obligations, as the case may be,
have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon
for principal and interest. Such moneys or

                                       34
<PAGE>
obligations, as the case may be, shall be segregated and held apart solely for
paying such Transition Bonds, and such Transition Bonds shall not be entitled to
any amounts on deposit in the Collection Account other than amounts on deposit
in the Defeasance Subaccount for such Transition Bonds.

       Section 4.04. REPAYMENT OF MONEYS HELD BY PAYING AGENT.

       In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or
the Covenant Defeasance Option or Legal Defeasance Option with respect to the
Transition Bonds of any Series, all moneys then held by any Paying Agent other
than the Trustee under the provisions of this Indenture with respect to such
Transition Bonds shall, upon demand of the Issuer, be paid to the Trustee to be
held and applied according to Section 3.03 and thereupon such Paying Agent shall
be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys.

       Section 5.02. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

       (a) If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default under Section
5.01(g)) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case either the
Trustee or the Holders of Transition Bonds representing not less than a majority
of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of all Series may, but need
not, declare all the Transition Bonds to be immediately due and payable, by a
notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Transition
Bondholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of the
Transition Bonds of all Series, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and
payable.

       (b) 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 contemplated hereafter in this Article V, the Holders
of Transition Bonds representing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Transition Bonds of all Series, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee,
may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, provided that:

              (i) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee, for deposit
       in the General Subaccount of the Collection Account, a sum sufficient to
       pay

                     (A) all of the principal of, and interest and premium, if
              any, on all Transition Bonds of all Series and all other amounts

<PAGE>
              (ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the
       principal of the Transition Bonds of all Series that has become due
       solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in
       Section 5.12.

       (c) No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any
right consequent thereto.

       Section 5.03. 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 Transition Bond when such interest becomes due and payable
and such Default continues for five Business Days, (ii) Default is made in the
payment of the then unpaid principal of any Transition Bond on the Final
Maturity Date therefor or (iii) Default is made in the payment of the Redemption
Price for any Transition Bond on the Redemption Date therefor, the Issuer shall,
upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of the
Transition Bonds of such Series, such 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
and the whole amount then due and payable on such Transition Bonds 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 respective Interest Rate of such Series or the
applicable Class of such Series.

       (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay the amounts specified
in clause (a) above upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of
the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or
final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon
such Transition Bonds and collect in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Issuer or other obligor upon such Transition Bonds, wherever
situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

       (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, as
more particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion, proceed to
protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Transition Bondholders, 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 including foreclosing or
otherwise enforcing the Lien on the Bondable Transition Property securing the
Transition Bonds or applying to the BPU or a court of competent jurisdiction for
sequestration of revenues arising with respect to such Bondable Transition
Property.

       (d) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Transition Bonds or any Person having or claiming an ownership
interest in the Collateral, 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 Transition Bonds, or

                                       37
<PAGE>
to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Trustee,
irrespective of whether the principal of any Transition Bonds 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 5.03, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
Proceedings or otherwise:

              (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of
       principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Transition
       Bonds 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 or
       bad faith) and of the Transition Bondholders allowed in such Proceedings;

              (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote
       on behalf of the Holders of Transition Bonds 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 Transition Bondholders 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 Holders of Transition Bonds 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 Transition Bondholders to
       make payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee shall
       consent to the making of payments directly to such Transition
       Bondholders, 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 or bad
       faith.

       (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
Transition Bondholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Transition Bonds or the rights of any Holder thereof
or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Transition
Bondholder 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 Transition Bonds, may be enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Transition Bonds or the production thereof in any trial
or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any 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
compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective
agents and attorneys,

                                       38
<PAGE>
shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Transition Bonds.

       (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any Proceedings
involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the
Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the
Holders of the Transition Bonds, and it shall not be necessary to make any
Transition Bondholder a party to any such Proceedings.

       adjudged due;

              (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or
       partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Collateral;

              (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the New
       Jersey UCC or the Competition Act or any other applicable law and take
       any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and
       remedies of the Trustee and the Holders of the Transition Bonds;

              (iv) sell the Collateral 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; and

              (v) exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims
       of the Issuer against, as applicable, the Seller, the Servicer, the
       Administrator or any counterparty under, as the case may be, the Sale
       Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, the Administration Agreement, any
       Hedge Agreement or any Interest Rate Swap Agreement, as provided in
       Section 3.20(b);

provided, however, that the Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate any
portion of the Collateral following an Event of Default, other than an Event of
Default described in Section 5.01(a), 5.01(b) or 5.01(c), with respect to any
Series unless (A) the Holders of 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Transition Bonds of all Series consent thereto, (B) the proceeds of such sale or
liquidation distributable to the Transition Bondholders of all Series are
sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such
Transition Bonds for principal, interest and premium, if any, or (C) the Trustee
determines that the Collateral will not continue to provide sufficient funds for
all payments on the Transition Bonds of all Series as they would have become due
if the Transition Bonds had not been declared due and payable and the Trustee
obtains the consent of Holders of 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Transition Bonds of all Series. In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency
with respect to clause (B) and (C), 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 Collateral for such purpose. Upon any sale or other
liquidation of the Collateral or any portion thereof, the Trustee

                                       39
<PAGE>
shall apply the net proceeds of such sale or liquidation in accordance with
Section 8.02(e).

       (b) If an Event of Default under Section 5.01(g) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders, shall be entitled and
empowered to the extent permitted by applicable law to institute or participate
in Proceedings reasonably necessary to compel performance of or to enforce the
pledge and agreement of the State of New Jersey in Section 17.a of the
Competition Act and to collect any monetary damages incurred by the Holders or
the Trustee as a result of any such Event of Default, and may prosecute any such
Proceeding to final judgment or decree. Such remedy shall be the only remedy
that the Trustee may exercise if the only Event of Default that has occurred and
is continuing is an Event of Default under Section 5.01(g).

       Section 5.05. OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE COLLATERAL.

       If the Transition Bonds have been declared to be due and payable under
Section 5.02 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its
consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Trustee may, but need
not, elect, as provided in Section 5.11(c), to maintain possession of the
Collateral and not sell or liquidate the same. It is the desire of the parties
hereto and the Transition Bondholders that there be at all times sufficient
funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Transition Bonds, and
the Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not
to maintain possession of the Collateral or sell or liquidate the same. In
determining whether to maintain possession of the Collateral or sell or
liquidate the same, 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 Collateral for such purpose.

       Section 5.06. LIMITATION OF PROCEEDINGS.

       (a) No Holder of any Transition Bond of any Series shall have any right
to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, or to avail itself of any
remedies provided in the Competition Act, with respect to this Indenture, or for
the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder,
unless:

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

              (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of
       the Transition Bonds of all 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 Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee security
       or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs,
       expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

              (iv) the Trustee for 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 60 day period by the Holders of a
       majority of the Outstanding Amount

                                       40
<PAGE>
       of the Transition Bonds of all Series;

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

              (b) In the event the Trustee shall receive conflicting or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of
Transition Bonds, each representing less than a majority of the Outstanding
Amount of the Transition Bonds of all Series, the Trustee in its sole discretion
may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Indenture.

              Section 5.07. UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF TRANSITION BONDHOLDERS TO
RECEIVE PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.

       Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of any
Transition Bond shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, and
shall not be impaired without the consent of each such Holder, (a) to receive
payment of (i) the interest, if any, on such Transition Bond on or after the due
dates thereof expressed in such Transition Bond or in this Indenture, (ii) the
unpaid principal, if any, of such Transition Bonds on or after the Final
Maturity Date therefor or (iii) in the case of redemption, receive payment of
the unpaid principal, if any, and interest, if any, on such Transition Bond on
or after the Redemption Date therefor and (b) to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without
the consent of such Holder.

       Section 5.08. RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

       If the Trustee or any Transition Bondholder 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 Transition Bondholder, then and in every such case the
Issuer, the Trustee and the Transition Bondholders 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 Transition Bondholders shall continue as though no such
Proceeding had been instituted.

       Section 5.09. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

       No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to
the Transition Bondholders 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 5.10. DELAY OR OMISSION NOT A WAIVER.

       No delay or omission of the Trustee or any Transition Bondholder to
exercise any right or

                                       41
<PAGE>
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 V or by law
to the Trustee or to the Transition Bondholders may be exercised from time to
time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the
Transition Bondholders, as the case may be.

       Section 5.11. CONTROL BY TRANSITION BONDHOLDERS.

       The Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition
Bonds of all Series (or, if less than all Series or Classes are affected, of the
affected Series or Class or Classes) 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 Transition Bonds of such Series or Class or Classes
or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to such
Series or Class or Classes; provided that:

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

       (b) subject to the express terms of Section 5.04, any direction to the
Trustee to sell or liquidate the Collateral shall be by the Holders of
Transition Bonds representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of
the Transition Bonds of all Series;

       (c) if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have been satisfied and
the Trustee elects to retain the Collateral pursuant to such Section and elects
not to sell or liquidate the same, then any direction to the Trustee by Holders
of Transition Bonds representing less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Transition Bonds of all Series to sell or liquidate the Collateral shall be of
no force and effect; and

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

provided, further, that, subject to Section 6.01, the Trustee need not take any
action that it determines might involve it in liability for which it reasonably
believes it will not be adequately indemnified against the costs, expenses and
liabilities that might be incurred by it in complying with this request. The
Trustee also need not take any action that it determines might materially and
adversely affect the rights of any Transition Bondholders not consenting to such
action.

       Section 5.12. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

              (a) Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity
of the Transition Bonds of all Series as provided in Section 5.02, the Holders
of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of
all Series may waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences
except a Default (i) in payment of principal of, or interest or any premium on,
any of the Transition Bonds or (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof
that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of all Holders of
Transition Bonds of all Series or Classes affected. In the case of any such
waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Transition Bonds 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.

                                       42
<PAGE>
       (b) 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 5.13. UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

       All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Transition
Bond by such Holder's acceptance thereof 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 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any suit
instituted by the Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Transition Bondholder,
or group of Transition Bondholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more
than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of a Series or (c)
any suit instituted by any Transition Bondholder for the enforcement of the
payment of (i) interest on any Transition Bond on or after the due dates
expressed in such Transition Bond and in this Indenture, (ii) the unpaid
principal, if any, of any Transition Bond on or after the Final Maturity Date
therefor or (iii) in the case of redemption, the unpaid principal of and
interest on any Transition Bond on or after the Redemption Date therefor.

       Section 5.14. 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.

       Section 5.15. ACTION ON TRANSITION BONDS.

       The Trustee's right to seek and recover judgment on the Transition Bonds
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
Transition Bondholders 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 Collateral or upon any of the assets of the Issuer.

                                   Article VI
                                   THE TRUSTEE

       Section 6.01. DUTIES AND LIABILITIES OF TRUSTEE.

              (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Trustee shall exercise the

                                       43
<PAGE>
rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care
and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs.

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

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

              (ii) in the absence of 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.

       (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except
that:

              (i) this clause (c) does not limit the effect of clause (b) of
       this Section 6.01;

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

              (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 5.11.

       (d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the
Trustee is subject to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 6.01.

       (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by
it except as provided in this Indenture or as the Trustee may agree in writing
with the Issuer.

       (f) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other
funds held by the Trustee except to the extent required by law or the terms of
this Indenture, the Sale Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, any Hedge Agreement
or any Interest Rate Swap Agreement.

       (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers,
if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayments of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
it.

       (h) 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 6.01 and to the provisions of the TIA.

       (i) Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable for any
indebtedness of the Issuer, the Servicer or the Seller evidenced by or arising
under the Transition Bonds or any Basic Document.

<PAGE>
       Section 6.02. RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

       (a) The Trustee may rely on any document believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee
need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

       (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an
Issuer Officer's Certificate or an Issuer Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee shall
not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance
on an Issuer Officer's Certificate or an Issuer Opinion of Counsel.

       (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 or a custodian or nominee, and the Trustee shall not be responsible
for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, any
such agent attorney, custodian, or nominee appointed with due care by it
thereunder.

       (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to
take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers; provided, however, that the Trustee's conduct does not constitute
willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

       (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of
counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the
Transition Bonds shall be full and complete authorization and protection from
liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

       Section 6.03. INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE.

       The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner
or pledgee of Transition Bonds and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its
affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying
Agent, Transition Bond Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent, or agent
appointed pursuant to Section 3.02(b) may do the same with like rights. However,
the Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.

       Section 6.04. TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER.

       The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as
to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Transition Bonds. The
Trustee shall not be accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the
Transition Bonds, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any statement of
the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the
sale of the Transition Bonds or in the Transition Bonds other than the Trustee's
certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the
form, character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any of the
Collateral or for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of the Transition
Bonds (other than the certificate of authentication for the Transition Bonds) or
the Basic Documents, and the Trustee shall in no event assume or incur any
liability, duty or obligation to any Holder of a Transition Bond, in each case
other than as expressly provided for in this Indenture. The Trustee shall not be
liable for the default or misconduct of the Issuer, the Seller, the Servicer or
the Member or any Manager under any Basic Document or otherwise, or the default
or misconduct of any

                                       45
<PAGE>
counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap Agreement, and the
Trustee shall have no obligation or liability to perform the obligations of the
Issuer.

       Section 6.05. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS.

       If a Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any Class or Series
and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee
shall mail to each Rating Agency and to each Holder of Transition Bonds of all
Series notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs or, in the case of a
Default that becomes an Event of Default before the lapse of 90 days, as soon as
practicable after such Default becomes an Event of Default and is actually known
by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default in
payment of principal of or interest on any Transition Bond and subject to the
requirements of the preceding sentence, the Trustee may withhold the notice if
and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines
that withholding the notice is in the interests of Transition Bondholders.

       (a) The Trustee shall deliver to each Holder of Transition Bonds
such information as may be required to enable such Holder to prepare its federal

Bonds, on or prior to each Payment Date therefor, the Trustee shall prepare and

              (viii) the amount paid to the Trustee since the previous Payment
       Date to and including such Payment Date;

in an Authorized Newspaper that such statement shall be available with the
Issuer's listing agent in Luxembourg appointed pursuant to Section 3.02(b).

       (d) The Trustee's responsibility for disbursing the information described
in clause (b) above to Holders of Transition Bonds is limited to the
availability, timeliness and accuracy of the information provided by the

       Section 6.07. COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

       (a) The Issuer shall pay to the Trustee from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services. The Trustee's compensation shall not
be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The
Issuer shall reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by it, including costs of
collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses
shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee from and against any and all
costs, damages, expenses, losses, liabilities or other amounts whatsoever
(including counsel fees) incurred by the Trustee in connection with the
administration of this trust, the enforcement of this trust and all of the
Trustee's rights, powers and duties under this Indenture and

                                       47
<PAGE>
the performance by the Trustee of the duties and obligations of the Trustee
under or pursuant to this Indenture. The Trustee shall notify the Issuer
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to
so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder.

       (b) The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate
counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The
Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability
or expense incurred by the Trustee (i) through the Trustee's own willful
misconduct, negligence or bad faith or (ii) to the extent the Trustee was
reimbursed for or indemnified against any such loss, liability or expense by the
Seller pursuant to the Sale Agreement or by the Servicer pursuant to the
Servicing Agreement.

       (c) When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default
specified in Section 5.01(e) or 5.01(f) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses
are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the
United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law.

       Section 6.08. REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE.

       (a) The Trustee may resign at any time upon 30 days' prior written
notice by so notifying the Issuer. The Issuer may remove the Trustee with or
without cause at any time, with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, upon 30
days' prior written notice, and shall remove the Trustee if:

              (i) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

              (ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

              (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the
       Trustee or its property; or

              (iv) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

       (b) If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to
hereinafter as the "Retiring Trustee"), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee.

       (c) In addition, the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the
Transition Bonds of all Series may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Issuer
and the Trustee and such Holders may appoint a successor Trustee.

       (d) A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the Retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation
or removal of the Retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this
Indenture. No resignation or removal of the Trustee shall become effective until
the acceptance of the appointment by a successor Trustee. The successor Trustee
shall mail a notice of its succession to Transition Bondholders. The Retiring
Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the
successor Trustee.

                                       48
<PAGE>
       (e) If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
Retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the Retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the
Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the Transition Bonds of all
Series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Trustee.

       (f) If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Transition
Bondholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of
the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

       (g) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 6.08, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the
benefit of the Retiring Trustee.

       Section 6.09. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER.

       (a) If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or
transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to,
another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or
transferee corporation or banking association shall, without any further act be
the successor Trustee. Notice of any such event shall be promptly given to each
Rating Agency by the successor Trustee and any agent in Luxembourg appointed
pursuant to Section 3.02(b).

       (b) In case at the time such successor or successors by merger,
conversion, consolidation or transfer shall succeed to the trusts created by
this Indenture any of the Transition Bonds shall have been authenticated but not
delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of
authentication of any Retiring Trustee, and deliver such Transition Bonds so
authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Transition Bonds shall not
have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such
Transition Bonds either in the name of any Retiring Trustee hereunder or in the
name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force and effect granted by the Transition Bonds or by this
Indenture and this force and effect shall be equal to any certificate issued by
the Trustee.

       Section 6.10. APPOINTMENT OF CO-TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE TRUSTEE.

       (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Collateral 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 Collateral, and to vest in such
Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Transition
Bondholders, such title to the Collateral, or any part hereof, and, subject to
the other provisions of this Section 6.10, 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 6.11 and no notice to
Transition Bondholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 6.08. Notice of any such appointment shall be
promptly given to each Rating Agency by the Trustee.

       (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:

                                       49
<PAGE>
              (i) 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 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 Collateral 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;

              (ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of
       any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

              (iii) the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or
       remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

       (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the 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 VI. 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 Indenture,
specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.

       (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 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
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or
successor trustee.

       Section 6.11. ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

       The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section
310(a) and Section 26(a)(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trustee

Section 310(b)(9); 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.

       Section 6.12. PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUER.

       The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor
relationship

                                       50
<PAGE>
listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee that has resigned or been removed shall
be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

       Section 6.13. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE TRUSTEE.

       The Trustee hereby represents and warrants that:

       (a) the Trustee is a _______________ validly existing in good standing
under the laws of the State of _______________; and

       (b) the Trustee has full power, authority and legal right to execute,

                                  Article VIII
                      ACCOUNTS, DISBURSEMENTS AND RELEASES

       Section 8.01. 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 Collateral, 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 V.

       Section 8.02. COLLECTION ACCOUNT.

       (a)

              (i)

       (i) On or prior to the Series Issuance Date for the first Series issued
hereunder, the Issuer shall open, at the Trustee's Corporate Trust Office, or at
another Eligible Institution, one or more segregated trust accounts in the
Trustee's name for the benefit of the Holders (collectively, the "Collection
Account"). The Collection Account shall initially be divided into subaccounts,
which need not be separate bank accounts: a general subaccount (the "General
Subaccount"), an overcollateralization subaccount for each Series of Transition
Bonds (each, an "Overcollateralization Subaccount" or "Series
Overcollateralization Subaccount"), a capital subaccount for each Series of
Transition Bonds (each, a "Capital Subaccount" or "Series Capital Subaccount"),
a reserve subaccount for each Series of Transition Bonds (each, a "Reserve
Subaccount" or "Series Reserve Subaccount"), a series subaccount for each Series
of Transition Bonds (each, a "Series Subaccount") and a class subaccount for any
Class of any Series of Transition Bonds that has a floating rate of interest if
and as specified in the related Series Supplement (each, a "Class Subaccount").
On or prior to the Series Issuance Date for each Series issued after the Series
Issuance Date for the first Series issued hereunder, the Issuer shall establish
for such Series an additional Series Subaccount, a Series Overcollateralization
Subaccount, a Series Capital Subaccount, a Series Reserve Subaccount and, if and
as specified in the related Series Supplement, a Class Subaccount for any Class
of such Series that has a floating rate of interest, each as Subaccounts of the
Collection Account. Prior to

                                       53
<PAGE>
depositing funds or U.S. Government Obligations in the Collection Account
pursuant to Sections 4.01 or 4.02, the Issuer shall establish defeasance
subaccounts (each, a "Defeasance Subaccount") for each Series for which funds
shall be deposited, as subaccounts of the Collection Account. All amounts in the
Collection Account not allocated to any other Subaccount shall be allocated to
the General Subaccount. Prior to the Payment Date for the initial Series of
Transition Bonds, all amounts in the Collection Account (other than funds
deposited into the Capital Subaccount for such Series, up to the Required
Capital Amount) shall be allocated to the General Subaccount. All payments
received by the Trustee from any counterparty under any Interest Rate Swap
Agreement with respect to any Class of floating rate Transition Bonds shall be
deposited in the Class Subaccount, if any, for such Class unless otherwise
specified in the related Series Supplement. All references to the Collection
Account shall be deemed to include reference to all subaccounts contained
therein. Withdrawals from and deposits to each of the foregoing subaccounts of
the Collection Account shall be made as set forth in Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03
and this Section 8.02. The Collection Account shall at all times be an Eligible
Securities Account and only the Trustee shall have access to the Collection
Account for the purpose of making deposits in and withdrawals from the
Collection Account in accordance with this Indenture. Funds in the Collection
Account shall not be commingled by the Issuer with any other moneys, and shall
not be commingled by the Trustee. All moneys deposited from time to time in the
Collection Account, all deposits therein pursuant to this Indenture, and all
investments made in Eligible Investments with such moneys, including all income
or other gain from such investments, shall be held by the Trustee in the
Collection Account as part of the Collateral as herein provided.

              (ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the
       Collection Account shall be a securities account and shall be established
       only with a securities intermediary (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14)
       of the New Jersey UCC) that agrees with the Trustee that (A) the
       Collection Account shall be a securities account of the Trustee, (B) all
       property credited to the Collection Account and each Subaccount
       thereunder shall be treated as a financial asset, (C) such securities
       intermediary shall treat the Trustee as entitled to exercise the rights
       that comprise each financial asset credited to the Collection Account and
       each Subaccount thereunder, (D) such securities intermediary shall comply
       with entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without the further
       consent of any other person or entity, (E) such securities intermediary
       shall not agree with any person other than the Trustee to comply with
       entitlement orders originated by such other person, (F) the Collection
       Account, each Subaccount thereunder and all property credited to any of
       them shall not be subject to any Lien, security interest, right of
       set-off in favor of such securities intermediary or anyone claiming
       through it (other than the Trustee), and (G) such agreement shall be
       governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey. The Collection Account
       and each Subaccount thereunder shall be under the control (within the
       meaning of Section 8-106 of the New Jersey UCC) of the Trustee. If at any
       time the Collection Account or any Subaccount thereunder ceases to be an
       Eligible Securities Account, the Trustee shall, within ten (10) days,
       establish a new Collection Account or Subaccount, as the case may be, as
       an Eligible Securities Account.

       (b) All or a portion of the funds in the Collection Account shall be
invested in Eligible Investments and, so long as no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, shall be reinvested by the Trustee upon Issuer
Order; provided, however, that no funds in the Defeasance Subaccount for any
Series of Transition Bonds shall be invested in Eligible Investments or

                                       54
<PAGE>
otherwise, except that U.S. Government Obligations deposited by the Issuer with
the Trustee pursuant to Sections 4.01 or 4.02 shall remain as such. Except as
provided in Section 8.02(e)(xii), all income or other gain from investments of
moneys deposited in the Collection Account shall be deposited by the Trustee in
the Collection Account, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be
charged to the Collection Account. The Issuer shall not direct the Trustee to
make any investment of any funds or to sell any investment held in the
Collection Account unless the security interest granted and perfected in such
account will continue to be perfected in such investment or the proceeds of such
sale, in either case without any further action by any Person, and, in
connection with any direction to the Trustee to make any such investment or
sale, if requested by the Trustee, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an
Issuer Opinion of Counsel, acceptable to the Trustee, to such effect. Subject to
Section 6.01(c), the Trustee shall not in any way be held liable for the
selection of Eligible Investments or for investment losses incurred thereon
except for losses attributable to the Trustee's failure to make payments on such
Eligible Investments issued by the Trustee, in its commercial capacity as
principal obligor and not as Trustee, in accordance with their terms. The
Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the
liquidation of any Eligible Investment prior to its stated maturity or the
failure of the Issuer to provide timely written investment directions. The
Trustee shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any amounts held
hereunder in the absence of written investment direction pursuant to an Issuer
Order; provided, however, that if (i) the Issuer shall have failed to give
investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Collection Account to the
Trustee by 11:00 a.m. (prevailing New York City time) (or such other time as may
be agreed by the Issuer and Trustee) on any Business Day, or (ii) a Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing but the Transition Bonds
shall not have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.02, then the
Trustee shall, to the fullest extent practicable, invest and reinvest funds in
the Collection Account in one or more Eligible Investments of the kind described
in clause (d) of the definition thereof.

       (c) Any TBC Collections remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee, any
Indemnity Amounts remitted to the Trustee by the Seller or the Servicer or
otherwise received by the Trustee or the Issuer, any other proceeds of
Collateral received by the Servicer, the Issuer or the Trustee, and any amounts
paid by any counterparty under any Hedge Agreement or Interest Rate Swap
Agreement received by the Servicer, the Issuer or the Trustee, shall be
deposited in the General Subaccount.

       (d) Monthly, by 12:00 noon (prevailing New York City time) on the [xth]
day of each calendar month (other than a month in which a Payment Date occurs),
or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day thereafter,
beginning ______ 2002 (each, a "Monthly Fee Disbursement Date"), the Trustee
shall, at the direction of the Servicer, apply all amounts on deposit into the
General Subaccount and, if and to the extent necessary and available, any
investment earnings on the subaccounts in the Collection Account (other than the
Capital Subaccounts) in the following priority:

              (i) to the Trustee, the fee owed to the Trustee for all Series for
       such month and any unpaid monthly trustee fees for prior months, plus any
       expenses, including legal fees and expenses, Indemnity Amounts (up to a
       maximum of $______ per calendar year in the aggregate for all Series
       (including all current and past due amounts), unless the Issuer has
       received confirmation from S&P, Moody's and Fitch that a further amount
       will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the then current rating
       of the Outstanding Transition Bonds), and any other amounts due and owing
       to the Trustee pursuant to the Basic Documents for such month;

                                       55
<PAGE>
              (ii) to the Issuer, the monthly fees for the Independent Managers
       and any unpaid monthly Independent Manager fees for prior months;

              (iii) to the Servicer, the Monthly Servicing Fee and any unpaid
       Monthly Servicing Fees for prior months;

              (iv) to the Administrator, the monthly administration fee payable
       under the Administration Agreement and any unpaid monthly Administrator
       fees for prior months;

              (v) to the Persons entitled thereto (or, to the extent such
       Persons have already been paid by the Issuer, to the Issuer), so long as
       no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused by
       such payment, all Operating Expenses other than those described in
       clauses (i) through (iv) above up to an aggregate amount for all Series
       (including all current and past due amounts) equal to $[[100,000] divided
       by the number of months between Payment Dates].

Of the total amount applied on any Monthly Fee Disbursement Date pursuant to
each of clauses (i) through (v) of this Section 8.02(d), each outstanding Series
of Transition Bonds shall be deemed to have paid, pursuant to each such clause,
a portion of such total amount equal to the product of (A) the total amount
applied pursuant to such clause on such date times (B) the fraction (x) whose
numerator is the principal amount of Transition Bonds of such Series as of the
immediately preceding Payment Date and (y) whose denominator is the aggregate
principal amount of Transition Bonds of all Series as of the immediately
preceding Payment Date. In addition, if on any Monthly Fee Disbursement Date
amounts available in the general subaccount of the Collection Account (including
available investment earnings in the subaccounts (other than the Capital
Subaccounts) of the Collection Account) are insufficient to pay a Series' share
of the monthly fees and expenses listed in clauses (i) through (v) of this
Section 8.02(d), the Trustee shall, at the direction of the Servicer, draw from
funds on deposit in the Reserve Subaccount for such Series up to the amount
necessary to make such payments.

       (e) On the Business Day preceding each Payment Date, the Trustee, at the
direction of the Servicer, shall deposit into the General Subaccount any
investment earnings on the subaccounts in the Collection Account (including
without limitation the Capital Subaccounts) and, after taking into account such
deposits and the amounts remitted on such Business Day by the Servicer pursuant
to Section 3.03 of the Servicing Agreement, shall allocate to the Series
Subaccount for each outstanding Series of Transition Bonds an amount equal to
(x) the amount of funds on deposit in the General Subaccount times (y) the
fraction whose numerator is the amount of Revenue Requirements for such Series
as of such Business Day and whose denominator is the Total Revenue Requirement
as of such Business Day. By 12:00 noon (prevailing New York City time) on the
Payment Date immediately following such Business Day, the Trustee shall, at the
direction of the Servicer, apply the amount so allocated to each Series
Subaccount in the following priority:

              (i) to the Trustee, such Series' share of the fee owed to the
       Trustee for the month in which such Payment Date occurs, plus any unpaid
       Trustee fees, plus such Series' share of any expenses, including legal
       fees and expenses, Indemnity Amounts (up to a maximum of $______ per
       calendar year in the aggregate for all Series (including all current and
       past due amounts) unless the Issuer has received confirmation from S&P,
       Moody's and Fitch that a further amount will not result in a reduction or
       withdrawal of the then current rating of the

                                       56

       Outstanding Transition Bonds), and any other amounts due and owing to the
       Trustee pursuant to the Basic Documents for such month so long as no
       Event of Default would result from the payment of such Indemnity Amounts
       (as limited above) or such other amounts;

              (ii) to the Issuer, such Series' share of the monthly fees for the
       Independent Managers and any unpaid Independent Manager fees;

              (iii) to the Servicer, such Series' share of the Monthly Servicing
       Fee and any unpaid servicing fees;

              (iv) to the Administrator, such Series' share of the monthly
       administration fee payable under the Administration Agreement and any
       unpaid Administrator fees, plus reimbursement of the Administrator's fees
       and expenses;

              (v) to the Persons entitled thereto (or, to the extent such
       Persons have already been paid by the Issuer, to the Issuer), so long as
       no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused by
       such payment, such Series' share of all Operating Expenses other than
       those described in clauses (i) through (iv) above up to an aggregate
       amount for all Series (including all current and past due amounts) equal
       to $[[100,000] divided by the number of months between Payment Dates];

              (vi) to the Transition Bondholders of such Series, the Interest
       payable on each Class of such Series on such Payment Date plus any
       previously accrued and unpaid interest on each such Class (provided that,
       in the case of any floating rate Class for which an Interest Rate Swap
       Agreement is in effect, such amount shall equal the amount specified, and
       the payee of such amount shall be the payee specified, in the related
       Series Supplement as payable on such Payment Date);

              (vii) to the Transition Bondholders of such Series, the Principal
       of each Class of such Series of Transition Bonds payable as a result of
       acceleration pursuant to Section 5.02, any Principal of any Class of such
       Series of Transition Bonds payable on the Final Maturity Date of such
       Class, and any Principal of any Class of such Series of Transition Bonds
       payable on the Redemption Date for such Class;

              (viii) to the Transition Bondholders of such Series, the Principal
       scheduled to be paid on each Class of such Series of Transition Bonds on
       such Payment Date according to the related Expected Amortization
       Schedules, excluding any amounts provided for pursuant to Section
       8.02(e)(vii);

              (ix) to the Persons entitled thereto (or, to the extent such
       Persons have already been paid by the Issuer, to the Issuer), such
       Series' share (as determined below) of any remaining unpaid Operating
       Expenses;

              (x) to the Capital Subaccount for such Series, the amounts, if
       any, necessary to restore the balance in such account to its Required
       Capital Amount;

              (xi) to the Overcollateralization Subaccount for such Series, the
       amount, if any, necessary to bring the balance in such account to such
       Series' Scheduled

                                       57
<PAGE>
       Overcollateralization Level;

              (xii) to the Issuer, free and clear of the Lien of this Indenture,
       so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, an amount
       equal to investment earnings on amounts in the Capital Subaccount of such
       Series;

              (xiii) to the Reserve Subaccount for such Series, any remaining
       amounts; provided that such amounts shall be subject to reallocation on
       such Payment Date to another Series as may be necessary to prevent or
       mitigate a Default pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) on such Payment
       Date (such funds to be drawn pro rata, in the case of an aggregate
       surplus of such funds in the Reserve Subaccounts, based on the amount of
       funds on deposit in the Reserve Subaccounts for each Series in respect of
       whose payment obligations no such Default or Event of Default exists or
       needs prevention); and

              (xiv) in the event such Series of Transition Bonds shall have been
       paid in full on such Payment Date, the balance, if any, in the Series
       Subaccount, Capital Subaccount, Overcollateralization Subaccount and
       Reserve Subaccount of such Series shall be released on such Payment Date
       to the Issuer free and clear of the Lien of this Indenture or, to the
       extent, if any, specified in the Series Supplements for one or more
       Series, shall be allocated on such Payment Date to the Series Subaccounts
       of one or more other Series.

       Of the total amount applied on any Payment Date (for all Series of
Transition Bonds) pursuant to each of clauses (i) through (v) and clauses (ix)
and (x) of this Section 8.02(e), the portion of such total amount representing
the share of each outstanding Series of Transition Bonds for purposes of this
Section 8.02(e) shall be an amount equal to the product of (A) the total amount
applied pursuant to such clause (for all Series of Transition Bonds) on such
date times (B) the fraction (x) whose numerator is the principal amount of
Transition Bonds of such Series as of the immediately preceding Payment Date and
(y) whose denominator is the aggregate principal amount of Transition Bonds as
of the immediately preceding Payment Date.

       (f) If, on any Payment Date, funds on deposit in any Series Subaccount
for any Series for which the allocation made on such Payment Date pursuant to
Section 8.02(e) are insufficient to make the payments and allocations
contemplated by Section 8.02(e)(i) through (xiii) with respect to such Series,
the Trustee shall, at the direction of the Servicer, draw from amounts on
deposit in the following subaccounts for such Series in the following order up
to the amount of such shortfall in order to make such payments and allocations:

              (i) from the Reserve Subaccount for such Series, for payments and
       allocations contemplated by Section 8.02(e)(i) through (xiii), with
       respect to such Series,

              (ii) from the Overcollateralization Subaccount for such Series,
       for payments and allocations contemplated by Section 8.02(e)(i) through
       (viii) and 8.02(e)(x), with respect to such Series, and

              (iii) from the Capital Subaccount for such Series, for payments
       and allocations contemplated by Section 8.02(e)(i) through (viii), with
       respect to such Series.

       In addition, if on any Payment Date the funds available for allocations
and payments with

                                       58
<PAGE>
respect to one or more Series of Transition Bonds are insufficient to prevent or
cure a Default or Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b)
notwithstanding the aforementioned allocations pursuant to this Section 8.02(f)
and any reallocations pursuant to the proviso to Section 8.02(e)(xiii), the
Trustee shall, at the direction of the Servicer, draw from funds on deposit in
the Reserve Subaccount for each other Series of Transition Bonds in respect of
whose payment obligations no such Default or Event of Default exists or requires
prevention (or which, if it exists or requires prevention, can be cured or
prevented using less than all of the funds on deposit in such Series' Reserve
Subaccount) up to the amount necessary to make such payments. In the event that
funds in more than one other Series' Reserve Subaccounts are available for such
an allocation, such funds shall be drawn pro rata from those Reserve Subaccounts
based on the amount of funds that remain in each such Reserve Subaccount after
allocations have been made to cure or prevent a Default or Event of Default in
respect of the payment obligations of the Series to which such Reserve
Subaccount relates.

       (g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 8.02, if any Class of
any Series of Transition Bonds has a floating rate of interest, then the Series
Supplement relating to such Series shall specify the priority and other terms
governing the basis, if any, on which (i) amounts in the Series Subaccount for
such Series shall be allocable to a Class Subaccount, if any, for such Class on
each Payment Date and (ii) amounts in the Overcollateralization Subaccount and
Capital Subaccount for such Series shall be allocable to the Class Subaccount,
if any, for such Series (it being understood that such Series Supplement shall
provide that amounts in the Reserve Subaccount for such Series shall be so
allocable to such counterparty).

       (h) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 8.02, if a Hedge
Agreement is entered into with respect to any Series, then the Series Supplement
relating to such Series shall specify the priority and other terms governing the
basis, if any, on which (i) amounts in the Series Subaccount for such Series
shall be allocable to the counterparty under such Hedge Agreement and (ii)
amounts in the Overcollateralization Subaccount and Capital Subaccount for such
Series shall be allocable to the counterparty under such Hedge Agreement (it
being understood that such Series Supplement shall provide that amounts in the
Reserve Subaccount for such Series shall be so allocable).

       Section 8.03. RELEASE OF COLLATERAL.

       (a) All money and other property withdrawn from the Collection
Account by the Trustee for payment to the Issuer as provided in this Indenture
in accordance with Section 8.02 shall be deemed released from this Indenture
when so withdrawn and applied in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII,
without further notice to, or release or consent by, the Trustee.

       (b) Other than as provided for in clause (a) above, the Trustee shall
release property from the Lien of this Indenture only as and to the extent
permitted by the Basic Documents and only upon receipt of an Issuer Request
accompanied by an Issuer Officer's Certificate, an Issuer Opinion of Counsel and
Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1)
meeting the applicable requirements of Section 11.01 or an Issuer Opinion of
Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the TIA does
not require any such Independent Certificate.

       (c) Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Section
6.07, the Trustee may, and when required by the provisions of this Indenture
shall, execute instruments to release property from the Lien of this Indenture,
or convey the Trustee's interest in the same, in a manner

                                       59
<PAGE>
and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this
Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Trustee as
provided in this Article VIII 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.

       (d) Subject to Section 8.03(b), the Trustee shall, at such time as there
are no Transition Bonds Outstanding and all sums due the Trustee pursuant to
Section 6.07 have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Collateral
that secured the Transition Bonds from the Lien of this Indenture and release to
the Issuer or any other Person entitled thereto any funds or investments then on
deposit in or credited to the Collection Account.

       Section 8.04. ISSUER OPINION OF COUNSEL.

       The Trustee shall receive at least five days' notice when requested by
the Issuer to take any action pursuant to Section 8.03, accompanied by copies of
any instruments involved, and the Trustee shall also require, as a condition to
such action, an Issuer Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to
the Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps
required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to
the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not
materially and adversely impair the security for the Transition Bonds or the
rights of the Transition Bondholders in contravention of the provisions of this
Indenture; provided, however, that such Issuer Opinion of Counsel shall not be
required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Collateral. Counsel
rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the
accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the
Trustee in connection with any such action.

       Section 8.05. REPORTS BY INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS.

       The Issuer shall appoint a firm of Independent certified public
accountants of recognized national reputation for purposes of preparing and
delivering the reports or certificates of such accountants required by this
Indenture and the related Series Supplements. Upon any resignation by such firm,
the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor thereto that shall also be a firm
of Independent certified public accountants of recognized national reputation.
If the Issuer shall fail to appoint a successor to a firm of Independent
certified public accountants that has resigned within 15 days after such
resignation, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such failure in
writing. If the Issuer shall not have appointed a successor within ten days
thereafter, the Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor firm of Independent
certified public accountants of recognized national reputation. The fees of such
firm of Independent certified public accountants and its successor shall be
payable by the Issuer.

       conferred upon the Issuer;

              (iv) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property

       Section 9.04. EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.

       Upon the execution of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to the

       Transition Bonds authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
Supplemental Indenture pursuant to this Article IX 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

the Trustee and the Issuer, to any such Supplemental Indenture may be prepared

exchange for Outstanding Transition Bonds.

                                   Article X
                         REDEMPTION OF TRANSITION BONDS

       Section 10.01. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION BY ISSUER.

       If and to the extent provided in the related Series Supplement, and if no
Interest Rate Swap Agreement with respect to any Class of that Series is in
effect, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem all, but not less than all, of the
Transition Bonds of a Series on any Payment Date if, after giving effect to
payments that would otherwise be made on such Payment Date, the Outstanding
Amount of any such Series of Transition Bonds has been reduced to a percentage
of the initial principal balance of such Series below the percentage specified
in such Series Supplement. The redemption price in any case shall be equal to
the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed plus accrued and
unpaid interest thereon at the Interest Rate to the Redemption Date (the
"Redemption Price"). If the Issuer elects to redeem the Transition Bonds of a
Series pursuant to this Section 10.01, it shall furnish notice of such election
to (a) the Trustee, not later than 25 days prior to the Redemption Date for such
redemption and (b) to the Rating Agencies, not later than 10 days prior to such
Redemption Date, whereupon all such Transition Bonds shall be due and payable on
such Redemption Date upon the furnishing of a notice complying with Section
10.03 to each Holder of the Transition Bonds of such Series pursuant to this
Section 10.01.

       Section 10.02. MANDATORY REDEMPTION BY ISSUER.

       The Issuer shall redeem the Transition Bonds of a Series on the
Redemption Date or Dates, if any, in the amounts required, if any, and at the
redemption price specified in the Series Supplement for such Series, which in
any case shall be not less than the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds to
be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to such Redemption Date. If the
Issuer is required to redeem the Transition Bonds of a Series pursuant to this
Section 10.02, it shall furnish notice of such requirement to the Trustee not
later than 25 days prior to the Redemption Date for such redemption whereupon
all such Transition Bonds shall be due and payable on the Redemption Date upon
the furnishing of a notice complying with Section 10.03 to each Holder of the
Transition Bonds of such Series pursuant to this Section 10.02.

       Section 10.03. FORM OF REDEMPTION NOTICE.

       (a) Unless otherwise specified in the Series Supplement relating to
a Series of Transition Bonds, notice of redemption under Sections 10.01 or 10.02
shall be given by the Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not
less than five days nor more than 45 days prior to the applicable Redemption
Date to each Holder of Transition Bonds 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 Transition Bond Register.

                                       65
<PAGE>
         (b) All notices of redemption shall state:

                  (i)      the Redemption Date;

                  (ii)     the Series and amount of the Transition Bonds to be

         redeemed;

                  (iii)    the Redemption Price; and

                  (iv)     the place where Transition Bonds to be redeemed are
         to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued
         interest (which shall be the office or agency of the Issuer to be
         maintained as provided in Section 3.02).

         (c) Notice of redemption of the Transition Bonds to be redeemed shall
be given by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer. For so
long as any Transition Bonds are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the
rules of such exchange so require, the Trustee shall arrange that such notice
will also be given by publication in an Authorized Newspaper at least ten days
prior to the Redemption Date. Failure to give notice of redemption, or any
defect therein, to any Holder of any Transition Bond selected for redemption
shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of any other
Transition Bond. Notice of optional redemption shall be irrevocable once given.

         Section 10.04. PAYMENT OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

         If notice of redemption has been duly mailed or duly waived by the
Holders of all Transition Bonds called for redemption, then the Transition Bonds
called for redemption shall be payable on the applicable Redemption Date at the
applicable Redemption Price. No further interest shall accrue on the principal
amount of any Transition Bonds called for redemption after the Redemption Date,
and the Holders of such Transition Bonds shall have no rights with respect
thereto, if payment of the Redemption Price has been duly provided for on or
before the Redemption Date declared therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Holders of the Transition Bonds shall be entitled to payment of interest on the
Redemption Price accrued at the related Interest Rates to the extent the Issuer
fails to pay the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date. Payment of the
Redemption Price shall be made by the Trustee to or upon the order of the
Holders of the Transition Bonds called for redemption upon surrender of such
Transition Bonds, and the Transition Bonds so redeemed shall cease to be of
further effect and the Lien hereunder shall be released with respect to such
Transition Bonds.

                                   Article XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 11.01. 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 Issuer shall
furnish to the Trustee (i) an Issuer 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 Issuer Opinion of Counsel
stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if
any, have been complied with and (iii) (if required by the TIA) an Independent
Certificate from a firm of certified public accountants meeting

                                       66
<PAGE>
the applicable requirements of this Section 11.01, 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.

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

                  (i)      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 covenant or condition has been complied with.

         Section 11.02. FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO TRUSTEE.

         (a) 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.

         (b) Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized 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 certificate or
opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or
Issuer Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual
matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or
officers of the Servicer or the Seller or a Manager or Managers, stating that
the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Servicer, the Seller or the Issuer, unless such Authorized Officer or 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.

         (c) 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.

         (d) 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

                                       67
<PAGE>
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 VI.

         Section 11.03. ACTS OF TRANSITION BONDHOLDERS.

         (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken
by Transition Bondholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Transition Bondholders
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 Transition Bondholders 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 6.01)
conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner
provided in this Section 11.03.

         (b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Trustee deems
sufficient.

         (c) The ownership of Transition Bonds shall be proved by the Transition
Bond Register.

         (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action by the Holder of any Transition Bonds shall bind the
Holder of every Transition Bond 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 or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or
not notation of such action is made upon such Transition Bond.

         Section 11.04. NOTICES, ETC., TO TRUSTEE, ISSUER AND RATING AGENCIES.

         (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or Act of Transition Bondholders or other documents provided or

         Issuer, or

                  (ii)     the Issuer by the Trustee or by any Transition
         Bondholder,

shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in English and in writing,
and sent by United States first-class mail, reputable overnight courier service,
facsimile transmission or electronic mail (confirmed by telephone, United States
first-class mail or reputable overnight courier service in the case of notice by
facsimile transmission or electronic mail) or any other customary means of
communication, and any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or

                                       68
<PAGE>
Act shall be effective when delivered or transmitted, or if mailed, five days
after deposit in the United States first-class mail with proper postage for

Atlantic City Electric Transition Funding LLC, 800 King Street, P.O. Box 231,
Wilmington, Delaware 19899, Attention: Managers, or at any other address
previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Issuer. The Issuer shall
promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Transition Bondholders to
the Trustee.

         (b) Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer,
the Trustee or a Manager shall be in writing, delivered personally, via
facsimile transmission, by reputable overnight courier or by first-class mail,

case of Moody's: Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Attention: ABS Monitoring

         (a) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Transition
Bondholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless
otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and delivered by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, to each Transition Bondholder affected by such event, at
the address of such Transition Bondholder as it appears on the Transition Bond
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
Transition Bondholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice
nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Transition Bondholder
shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Transition
Bondholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall
conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

         (b) 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 Transition Bondholders 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.

         (c) In case it shall be impractical to deliver notice in accordance
with clause (a) of this Section 11.05 to the Holders of Transition Bonds 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.

         (d) 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 11.06. NOTICES TO LUXEMBOURG STOCK EXCHANGE.

         (a) For so long as any Transition Bonds are listed on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange

                                       69
<PAGE>

the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and any agent appointed pursuant to Section
3.02(b) if any rating assigned to such Transition Bonds is reduced or withdrawn
and shall arrange for such notice to be published in an Authorized Newspaper.

         (b) For so long as any Transition Bonds are listed on the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the Trustee shall make
available to the Holders of such Transition Bonds and shall deposit on file with
the Issuer's listing agent in Luxembourg appointed pursuant to Section 3.02(b),

pursuant to this Indenture, the prospectus related to such Transition Bonds, the
reports of independent certified public accountants obtained with respect to the
Issuer pursuant to this Indenture, the financial information regarding ACE (and,

ACE) in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2001 and copies of each annual report of ACE (and any such parent) on Form 10-K
for subsequent fiscal years. The Trustee shall deposit with the Chief Registrar
of the District Court of Luxembourg prior to listing on the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange a copy of the Issuer Certificate of Formation, the Issuer LLC Agreement
and any legal notices relating to the issuance of such Transition Bonds.

         Section 11.07. ALTERNATE PAYMENT AND NOTICE PROVISIONS.

         Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the
Transition Bonds to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement with
any Holder of a Transition Bond 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. The Issuer
shall furnish to the Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Trustee shall
cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such
agreements.

         Section 11.08. CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT.

         (a) 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.

         (b) 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.

         Section 11.09. EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS.

         The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are
for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

         Section 11.10. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

Transition Bonds by the Issuer shall bind its successors and permitted assigns,
whether so expressed or not.

         Section 11.11. SEVERABILITY.

         In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Transition Bonds
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby.

         Section 11.12. BENEFITS OF INDENTURE.

         Nothing in this Indenture or in the Transition Bonds, express or
implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their
successors hereunder, and the Transition Bondholders, and any other party
secured hereunder, and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part
of the Collateral, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under this Indenture.

         Section 11.13. LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

         In any case where the date on which any payment is due shall not be a
Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Transition Bonds
or this Indenture) 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 11.14. GOVERNING LAW.

         THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY, 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.

         Section 11.15. COUNTERPARTS.

         This Indenture may be executed in any number of 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.

         Section 11.16. ISSUER OBLIGATION.

         No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Issuer or the Trustee on the Transition Bonds or under this
Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith
or therewith, against (i) the Member or any Manager, employee or agent of the
Issuer or (ii) any stockholder, officer, director, employee or agent of the
Trustee (it being understood that none of the Trustee's obligations are in its
individual capacity).

         Section 11.17. NO PETITION.

                                       71
<PAGE>
         The Trustee, by entering into this Indenture, and each Transition
Bondholder, by accepting a Transition Bond, hereby covenants and agrees (or
shall be deemed to have covenanted and agreed) that it shall not at any time
institute against the Issuer, or join in the institution against the Issuer of,
or acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Issuer to invoke the
process of any court or governmental authority for the purpose of commencing or
sustaining a case against the Issuer under any federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any
substantial part of the property of the Issuer or ordering the winding up or
liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer.

         Section 11.18. PREFUNDING.

         If and to the extent specified in a Series Supplement, the Issuer may
elect to issue Transition Bonds in a principal amount that, on the date of
issuance, exceeds the aggregate amount of Bondable Transition Property created
under the related BPU Financing Order or other such orders then in effect. The
incremental amount of Transition Bonds issued over the amount of Bondable
Transition Property then created would be issued in anticipation of a subsequent
authorization by the BPU, within a period of time specified in the related
Series Supplement, of additional Bondable Transition Property in the same
incremental amount. In the event of such an incremental issuance, the Issuer
would immediately deposit the bond proceeds from the sale of such incremental
issuance into a separate prefunding account (the "Prefunding Account") to be
owned by the Issuer and administered by the Trustee. ACE may in its discretion
provide additional credit enhancement for the incremental principal amount of
such Transition Bonds. Amounts in the Prefunding Account would be used, to the
extent necessary, to meet obligations on the Transition Bonds of such Series in
the manner set forth in the related Series Supplement. If following such an
issuance but within the time period specified in the related Series Supplement,
the BPU approves the creation of additional Bondable Transition Property in an
amount equal to the incremental amount of Transition Bonds issued, ACE shall
sell such additional Bondable Transition Property to the Issuer pursuant to the
Sale Agreement and a Bill of Sale, and ACE shall receive in consideration
thereof all amounts in the Prefunding Account. If, however, the BPU shall not
have approved the creation of additional Bondable Transition Property in the
incremental amount within such time period, then at the end of such time period
all amounts in the Prefunding Account shall be applied to redeem the incremental
principal amount of Transition Bonds of such Series and pay accrued interest
thereon on the terms set forth in the related Series Supplement.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer and the Trustee have caused this
Indenture to be duly executed and delivered by a Manager and an officer,
respectively, thereof, each thereunto duly authorized, all as of the day and
year first above written.
