Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibits A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4a, A-4b and A-5 are part of the
terms of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 2.2.                                          Execution,
Authentication and Delivery.  The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the
Issuing Entity by any of its Authorized Officers.  The signature of any such Authorized Officer
on the Notes may be manual or facsimile.

 

Notes
bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at the time
of signature Authorized Officers of the Issuing Entity shall bind the Issuing
Entity, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did
not hold such offices at the date of such Notes.

 

The
Indenture Trustee shall upon Issuing Entity Order authenticate and deliver A-1
Notes, A-2 Notes, A-3 Notes, A-4a Notes, A-4b Notes and Class B Notes for
original issue in an aggregate principal amount of $     ,
$     , $    , $    and
$        , respectively.  The Outstanding Amount of A-1 Notes, A-2
Notes, A-3 Notes, A-4a Notes, A-4b Notes and Class B Notes at any time may
not exceed such respective amounts except as provided in Section 2.5.

 

Each
Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The Notes shall be issuable as registered
Notes in the minimum denomination of $1,000 and in greater whole-dollar
denominations in excess thereof.

 

No
Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the
Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories,
and such certificate of authentication shall be conclusive evidence, and the
only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder.

 

SECTION 2.3.                                          Temporary
Notes.  Pending the
preparation of Definitive Notes, the Issuing Entity may execute, and upon
receipt of an Issuing Entity Order, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten,
mimeographed or otherwise produced, of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in
lieu of which they are issued and with such variations not inconsistent with
this Indenture as the Authorized Officers executing such Notes may determine,
as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

 

If
temporary Notes are issued, the Issuing Entity will cause Definitive Notes to
be prepared without unreasonable delay. 
After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be
exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the
office or agency of the Issuing Entity to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2,
without charge to the Holder.  Upon
surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuing 

 

4

 

Entity
shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in
exchange therefor a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized
denominations.  Until so exchanged, the
temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under
this Indenture as if they were Definitive Notes.

 

SECTION 2.4.                                          Registration;
Registration of Transfer and Exchange.  The Issuing Entity shall cause to be kept a
register (the “Note Register”) in which, subject
to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuing Entity shall
provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of
Notes.  The Indenture Trustee shall be
the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of
registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided.  Upon any resignation of any Note Registrar,
the Issuing Entity shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to
make such an appointment, assume the duties of the Note Registrar.

 

If
a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed by the Issuing Entity as
the Note Registrar, the Issuing Entity will give the Indenture Trustee prompt
written notice of the appointment of such Note Registrar and of the location,
and any change in the location, of the Note Register, and the Indenture Trustee
shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at all reasonable times, to
obtain copies thereof and to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the
Note Registrar by an Executive Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of
the Holders of the Notes and the principal amounts and number of such Notes.

 

Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of
the Issuing Entity to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, if the
requirements of Section 8-401(a) of the UCC are met, the Issuing
Entity shall execute, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the
Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes in any authorized
denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

 

At
the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other new Notes of the
same Class in any authorized denominations of a like aggregate principal
amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or
agency.  Whenever any Notes are so
surrendered for exchange, if the requirements of Section 8-401(a) of
the UCC are met, the Issuing Entity shall execute, the Indenture Trustee shall
authenticate and the Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, the
Notes that the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

 

By
its acquisition of a Note or any interest therein, each purchaser or transferee
shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not an “employee
benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”),
that is subject to Title I of ERISA, a “plan” as defined in Section 4975
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),
an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” of any of the foregoing or a “governmental
plan” as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA that is subject to any law
substantially similar to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) the
acquisition and holding of the Note or any interest therein will not result in
a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975
of the Code or any substantially similar applicable law.

 

5

 

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

 

Every
Note 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 Indenture 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” meeting the requirements of
the Note Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in
the Securities Transfer Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”)
or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Note
Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with
the Exchange Act.

 

No
service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes, but the Issuing Entity may require payment 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 Notes, other than
exchanges pursuant to Sections 2.3 or 9.6 not involving any transfer.

 

SECTION 2.5.                                          Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.  If: (i) any mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and
(ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by the Indenture Trustee and the Issuing Entity to
hold the Indenture Trustee and the Issuing Entity, respectively, harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Issuing Entity, the Note Registrar or the
Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met,
the Issuing Entity shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same
Class; provided, however,
that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall
have become, or within seven days shall be, due and payable, or shall have been
called for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuing
Entity may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or
upon the Redemption Date without surrender thereof.  If, after the delivery of such replacement
Note (or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to
the preceding sentence), a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of
which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note,
the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such
replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or
any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such
replacement Note was delivered (or payment made) or any assignee of such
Person, except a bona fide 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 Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee in
connection therewith.

 

Upon
the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section, the Issuing Entity may
require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and
any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture
Trustee) connected therewith.

 

6

 

Every
replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Issuing Entity, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

 

The
provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

 

SECTION 2.6.                                          Persons
Deemed Owner.  Prior to
due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuing Entity,
the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuing Entity or the Indenture
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the
day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving
payments of principal and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other
purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the
Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee nor any agent of the Issuing Entity or
the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

SECTION 2.7.                                          Payment
of Principal and Interest; Defaulted
Interest.  (a)   The A-1 Notes, A-2 Notes, A-3 Notes, A-4a
Notes, A-4b Notes and Class B Notes shall accrue interest at the A-1 Note
Rate, the A-2 Note Rate, the A-3 Note Rate, the A-4a Note Rate, the A-4b Note
Rate and the Class B Note Rate, respectively, and such interest shall be
payable on each Payment Date, subject to Section 3.1.  Any installment of interest or principal, if
any, payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for by the
Issuing Entity on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the
Record Date by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid, to such Person’s
address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date.  However, unless Definitive Notes have been
issued, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the
nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede &
Co.), payment will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to
the account designated by such nominee. 
Notwithstanding the above, the final installment of principal payable
with respect to such Note (and except for the Redemption Price for any Note
called for redemption pursuant to Section 10.1(a)) shall be payable as
provided in clause (b)(ii).  The funds represented by any such checks
returned undelivered shall be held in accordance with Section 3.3.

 

(b)         (i) The principal of
each Note shall be payable in installments on each Payment Date as provided in
this Indenture, and except as provided below each such installment shall be due
and payable only to the extent that there are funds available to make the
payment in accordance with the Basic Documents. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing:  (A) the
entire Outstanding Amount of each Class of Notes shall be due and payable
on the related Class Final Scheduled Maturity Date, and (B) the
entire Outstanding Amount of all Classes of Notes shall be due and payable,
ratably to all Noteholders, on any date on which an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing if the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes
representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes
have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner
provided in Section 5.2.  All
principal payments on the Class A-1 Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of the Class A-1 Notes. 
All 

 

7

 

principal payments on the Class A-2 Notes shall
be made pro rata to the Noteholders of the Class A-2 Notes. All principal
payments on the Class A-3 Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders
of the Class A-3 Notes.  All
principal payments on the Class A-4 Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of the Class A-4 Notes. 
All principal payments on the Class B Notes shall be made pro rata
to the Noteholders of the Class B Notes.

 

(ii)                                  The Indenture
Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close
of business on the Record Date preceding the Payment Date on which the Issuing
Entity expects that the final installment of principal of and interest on such
Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed no later than five Business Days
prior to such final Payment Date and shall specify that such final installment
will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall
specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment
of such installment. Notices in connection with redemptions of Notes shall be
mailed to Noteholders as provided in Section 10.2.

 

(c)          If the Issuing Entity
defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Issuing Entity shall pay,
in any lawful manner, defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted
interest to the extent lawful) at the applicable interest rate from the Payment
Date for which such payment is in default. 
The Issuing Entity may pay such defaulted interest to the Persons who
are Noteholders on a subsequent special record date, which date shall be at
least five Business Days prior to the special payment date.  The Issuing Entity shall fix or cause to be
fixed any such special record date and special payment date, and, at least 15
days before any such special record date, shall mail to each Noteholder a
notice that states the special record date, the special payment date and the
amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

 

SECTION 2.8.                                          Cancellation.  All Notes surrendered for payment,
registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any
Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee
and shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee.  The Issuing Entity may at any time deliver to
the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and
delivered hereunder that the Issuing Entity may have acquired in any manner
whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the
Indenture Trustee.  No Notes shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in
this Section except as expressly permitted by this Indenture.  All canceled Notes may be held or disposed of
by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal
policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuing Entity shall direct by an
Issuing Entity Order that they be returned to it; provided, that such Issuing
Entity Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by
the Indenture Trustee.

 

SECTION 2.9.                                          Release
of Collateral.  Subject to
Sections 8.4 and 11.1 and the Basic Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall
release property from the Lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an
Issuing Entity Request accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of
Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA §§314(c) and
314(d)(l), or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to
the effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates.

 

8

 

SECTION 2.10.                                    Book-Entry
Notes.  The Notes,
upon original issuance, will be issued in the form of typewritten Notes
representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust
Company (“DTC”) (the initial Clearing Agency), or
its custodian, by, or on behalf of, the Issuing Entity. Such Notes shall
initially be registered on the Note Register in the name of Cede &
Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Note Owner of such Note
will receive a Definitive Note representing such Note Owner’s interest in such
Note, except as provided in Section 2.12. Unless and until definitive,
fully registered Notes (the “Definitive Notes”)
representing Notes have been issued to Note Owners:

 

(i)                                     this Section shall
be in full force and effect;

 

(ii)                                  the Note
Registrar and the Indenture Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all
purposes (including the payment of principal of and interest on the applicable
Notes) as the authorized representative of the Note Owners;

 

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

 

(iv)                              the rights of
Note Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be
limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and
the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the
Note Depository Agreement.  Unless and
until Definitive Notes are issued, the Clearing Agency will make book-entry
transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit
payments of principal of and interest on the applicable Notes to such Clearing
Agency Participants; and

 

(v)                                 whenever this
Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or
directions of Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes (or a Class of Notes), the Clearing Agency
shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has
received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or Clearing Agency
Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of
the beneficial interest in the Notes (or Class of Notes) and has delivered
such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

 

SECTION 2.11.                                    Notices
to Clearing Agency. 
Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required
under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes for the Notes have been
issued to Note Owners, the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and
communications to the Clearing Agency.

 

SECTION 2.12.                                    Definitive
Notes.  Notes
initially or subsequently cleared through a clearing agency may be issued in
definitive, fully registered certificated form to Noteholders if requested by
the DTC participants to whom the Notes are credited and in accordance with DTC’s
rules and procedures.  Upon any
surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the
Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions,
the Issuing Entity shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate,
the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing
Agency.  None of the Issuing Entity, the
Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any 

 

9

 

delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such
instructions.  Upon the issuance of
Definitive Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the
Definitive Notes as Noteholders.  In
addition, Notes issued as Definitive Notes from time to time may be
subsequently issued as Book-Entry Notes and cleared through a Clearing Agency
at the request of applicable Holders of the Definitive Notes.

 

SECTION 2.13.                                    Tax
Treatment.  It is the
intent of the Seller, the Servicer, the Noteholders and the Note Owners that,
for purposes of federal and State income tax and any other tax measured in
whole or in part by income, until the Certificates are held by other than the
Seller, the Trust be disregarded as an entity separate from the Seller and the
Notes be treated as debt of the Seller. 
At such time that the Certificates are held by more than one Person, it
is the intent of the Seller, the Servicer, the Noteholders and the Note Owners
that, for such tax purposes, the Trust be treated as a partnership and the
Notes be treated as debt of the Trust. 
Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case
of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, agrees to treat, and to take
no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the Notes for such tax purposes
as provided in this Section 2.13.

 

ARTICLE III

Covenants

 

SECTION 3.1.                                          Payment
of Principal and Interest.  The Issuing Entity will duly and punctually
pay the principal and interest, if any, on the Notes in accordance with the
terms of the Notes and this Indenture. 
Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Sections 8.2(c) and (e),
the Issuing Entity will cause to be distributed to Holders of the Notes all
amounts on deposit in the Note Distribution Account on a Payment Date deposited
therein for the benefit of the Notes pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement.  Amounts properly withheld
under the Code or any applicable State law by any Person from a payment to any
Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been paid
by the Issuing Entity to such Noteholder for all purposes of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 3.2.                                          Maintenance
of Office or Agency.  The
Issuing Entity will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuing Entity in
respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served.  The Issuing Entity hereby initially appoints
the Indenture Trustee to serve as its agent for the foregoing purposes.  The Issuing Entity will give prompt written
notice to the Indenture Trustee and the Counterparties of the location, and of
any change in the location, of any such office or agency.  If at any time the Issuing Entity shall fail
to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee
and the Counterparties with the address thereof, such surrenders, notices and
demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Issuing
Entity hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such
surrenders, notices and demands.

 

SECTION 3.3.                                          Money
for Payments To Be Held in Trust.  As provided in Sections 8.2(a) and (b),
all payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to
be made from amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account and the Note
Distribution Account pursuant to Section 8.2(c) or Section 8.2(e),
as applicable, shall be made on behalf of 

 

10

 

the Issuing Entity by the Indenture Trustee or by
another Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from the Collection Account and
the Note Distribution Account for payments of Notes shall be paid over to the
Issuing Entity except as provided in this Section.

 

One
Business Day prior to each Payment Date and Redemption Date, the Issuing Entity
shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Note Distribution Account an
aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the Notes,
such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto
and (unless the Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify
the Indenture Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

 

Any
Paying Agent shall be appointed by Issuing Entity Order with written notice
thereof to the Indenture Trustee.  Any
Paying Agent appointed by the Issuing Entity shall be a Person who would be
eligible to be Indenture Trustee hereunder as provided in Section 6.11.

 

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

 

(i)                                     hold in trust
all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes 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
Indenture Trustee and the Counterparties notice of any default by the Issuing
Entity (or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge
in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

11

 

Subject
to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the
Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount
due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such
amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be
paid to the Issuing Entity on Issuing Entity Order; and the Holder of such Note
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuing
Entity for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to
the Issuing Entity), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying
Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that
the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any
such repayment, shall at the expense and direction of the Issuing Entity 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, 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 will be repaid
to the Issuing Entity.  The Indenture
Trustee shall also adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuing Entity, any
other reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including mailing
notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not
been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in monies due and
payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture

Notes, the Collateral and each other instrument or agreement included in the
Trust Estate.

Issuing Entity will from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements

On the Closing Date, the Issuing Entity shall furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such
counsel, such action has been taken or will be taken with respect to the
recording and filing of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto and
any other requisite documents, and with respect to the execution and filing of
any financing statements and continuation statements, as are necessary to
perfect and make effective the Lien and security interest created by this
Indenture and reciting the details of such action, or stating that, in the
opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to make such Lien and
security interest effective.

 

(b)         On or before April 30
in each calendar year commencing in the calendar year 20XX the Issuing Entity

interest of this Indenture until April 30 in the following calendar year.

 

SECTION 3.7.                                          Performance
of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables.  (a)  
The Issuing Entity will not take any action and will use its best
efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any
Person from any material covenants or obligations under any instrument or
agreement included in the Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment,
hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the
validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as
expressly provided in this Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or such
other instrument or agreement.

 

(b)         The Issuing Entity may
contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this
Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the
Indenture Trustee in an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuing Entity shall be
deemed to be action taken by the Issuing Entity.  Initially, the Issuing Entity has contracted
with the Servicer and the Administrator to assist the Issuing Entity in performing
its duties under this Indenture.

 

(c)          The Issuing Entity will
punctually perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained
in this Indenture, the other Basic Documents and in the instruments and
agreements included in the Trust Estate, including filing or causing to be
filed all UCC financing statements and continuation statements required to be
filed by this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with
and within the time periods provided for herein and therein.  Except as otherwise expressly provided
therein, the Issuing Entity shall not waive, amend, modify, supplement or
terminate any Basic Document or any provision thereof without the consent of
the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes.

 

13

 

(d)         If the Issuing Entity shall
have knowledge of the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Issuing Entity
shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee, the Counterparties and the Rating
Agencies thereof, and shall specify in such notice the action, if any, the
Issuing Entity is taking with respect to such default.  If a Servicer Default shall arise from the
failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the
Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Receivables, the Issuing
Entity shall take all reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure.

 

(e)          As promptly as possible
after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of the Servicer’s
rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall become the successor servicer (the “Successor Servicer”) (or if there is no Backup Servicer on
such date, then the Issuing Entity shall appoint a Successor Servicer
acceptable to the Indenture Trustee), and such Successor Servicer shall accept
its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture
Trustee.  In the event that a Successor
Servicer has not been appointed and accepted its appointment at the time when
the previous Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Indenture Trustee without
further action shall automatically be appointed as the Successor Servicer.  Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture
Trustee shall, if it is unable to so act, (i) notify the Issuing Entity of
its resignation as Successor Servicer and (ii) appoint or petition a court
of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established institution, having a net
worth of not less than $                    and
whose regular business shall include the servicing of equipment receivables as
the successor to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.  In accordance with Section 8.2 of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuing Entity shall enter into an agreement
with such Successor Servicer for the servicing of the Receivables (such
agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture
Trustee).  If the Indenture Trustee shall
succeed to the previous Servicer’s duties as servicer of the Receivables as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity
and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions
of Article VI shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties
as the Successor Servicer and the servicing of the Receivables.  In case the Indenture Trustee shall become
the Successor Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture
Trustee shall be entitled to act through or appoint as Servicer any one of its
Affiliates; provided, that it shall be fully liable for the actions and
omissions of such Affiliate in its capacity as Successor Servicer.  Notwithstanding anything else herein to the
contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing
fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder
and the amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as Successor
Servicer under this Indenture and the transactions set forth or provided for
herein, or be liable for or be required to make any servicer advances.

 

(f)            Upon any termination of the
Servicer’s rights and powers pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the
Issuing Entity shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the
Counterparties.  As soon as a Successor
Servicer is appointed, the Issuing Entity shall notify the Indenture Trustee
and the Counterparties of such appointment, specifying in such notice the name
and address of such Successor Servicer.

 

SECTION 3.8.                                          Negative
Covenants.  So long as
any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuing Entity shall not:

 

14

 

(i)                                     except as
expressly permitted by this Indenture, the Purchase Agreement or the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of
the properties or assets of the Issuing Entity, including those included in the
Trust Estate, unless directed to do so by the Indenture Trustee;

 

(ii)                                  claim any
credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or interest payable in
respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly withheld from such payments
under the Code or applicable State law) or assert any claim against any present
or former Noteholder by reason of the payment of the taxes levied or assessed
upon any part of the Trust Estate; or

 

(iii)                               (A) permit
the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be impaired, or permit the
Lien of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or
discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or
obligations with respect to the Notes under this Indenture except as may be
expressly permitted hereby, (B) permit any Lien (other than the Lien of
this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden
the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds
thereof or (C) permit the Lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid
first priority (other than with respect to any tax lien, mechanics’ lien or
other lien not considered a Lien) security interest in the Trust Estate.

 

SECTION 3.9.                                          Annual

Indenture Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the
Issuing Entity, an Officer’s Certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit B,
stating that:

 

(i)                                     a review of the

the Issuing Entity or for any substantial part of the Trust Estate, or ordering

The
Issuing Entity shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Counterparties,
within five days after the Issuing Entity or the Administrator obtains actual
knowledge thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of
any event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would
become an Event of Default under clause  (iii), its status and what action the Issuing Entity is
taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

 

SECTION 5.2.                                          Acceleration
of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.  If an Event of Default should occur and be
continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of
Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount may
declare all the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing
to the Issuing Entity (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by Noteholders),
and upon any such declaration the Outstanding Amount, together with accrued and
unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become
immediately due and payable.

 

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 Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the
Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the Outstanding
Amount, by written notice to the Issuing Entity, the Counterparties and the
Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences
if:

 

(i)                                     the Issuing
Entity has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to
pay:

 

(A)                              all amounts owed to the
Counterparties under the Interest Rate Swap Agreements, payments of principal
of and interest on all Notes and all other amounts, in each case, that would
then be due hereunder if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration
had not occurred; and

 

21

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 5.3.                                          Collection
of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Indenture Trustee.  (a)  The Issuing Entity covenants that
if an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(i) or
(ii) occurs, the Issuing Entity
will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for
principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal at the
applicable interest rate, and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest
shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the
applicable interest rate, and in addition thereto such further amount as shall
be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture
Trustee and its agents and counsel.

 

(b)         In case the Issuing Entity
shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture
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 Issuing Entity or other obligor upon such Notes and collect in the manner
provided by law out of the property of the Issuing Entity or other obligor upon
such Notes, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

 

(c)          In case an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, as more particularly
provided in Section 5.4, in its discretion,
proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and
the Counterparties, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee by this
Indenture or by law.

 

(d)         In case there shall be
pending, relative to the Issuing Entity or any other obligor upon the Notes or
any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Trust Estate,
Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a
receiver, assignee, trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator,
sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession
of the Issuing Entity or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in
case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuing
Entity or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the
Issuing Entity or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of
whether the principal of any Notes shall then be 

 

22

 

due and payable as therein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee
shall have made any demand pursuant to this Section, 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 Notes and to file such other papers or documents as
may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture
Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture
Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents,
attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities
incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor
Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the
Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

 

(ii)                                  unless
prohibited by applicable law or regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders
of the Notes in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or any Person
performing similar functions in any such Proceedings;

 

(iii)                               to collect and
receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims
and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the
Noteholders and of the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes
allowed in any judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuing Entity, its
creditors and its property;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

23

 

disbursements and compensation of the Indenture
Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and
attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

 

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

 

SECTION 5.4.                                          Remedies;
Priorities.  (a) 
If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.2 following an Event of Default, the
Indenture Trustee may do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.5):

 

(i)                                     institute
Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the
collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes and to the Counterparties
or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise,
enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuing Entity and any
other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

 

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

 

(iii)                               exercise any
remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action
to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee, the
Counterparties and the Holders of the Notes;

 

(iv)                              sell the Trust
Estate, or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more
public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law;
and

 

(v)                                 make demand
upon the Servicer, by written notice, that the Servicer deliver to the Indenture
Trustee all Receivable Files;

 

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or
otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate following an Event of Default, other than
an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(i) or
(ii), unless:  (A) all the Noteholders consent thereto,
(B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the
Noteholders and the Counterparties are sufficient to discharge in full all
amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest and
under the Interest Rate Swap Agreements for any Net Swap Payments (including
interest on any overdue Net Swap Payments) and any Swap Termination Payments or
(C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Trust Estate will not
continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and
interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been
declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of
Holders of 66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes. In determining such
sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses (B) and
(C), the Indenture 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 Trust Estate for such purpose.  The 

 

24

 

Indenture
Trustee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Trust Estate or
any part thereof at any sale pursuant to this Section 5.4
conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. 
Each of the Issuing Entity and Holders hereby waives any claims against
the Indenture Trustee arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the
Trust Estate may have been sold at such sale was less than the price that might
have been obtained, even if the Indenture Trustee accepts the first offer
received and does not offer the Trust Estate to more than one offeree, so long
as such sale is conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.

 

(b)         If the Indenture Trustee
collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, it shall pay
out such money or property in the following order:

 

FIRST:  to pay the
Backup Servicer its accrued and unpaid Backup Servicer Fees;

 

SECOND:  to pay the
Servicer its accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee;

 

THIRD:  to the
Indenture Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.7
and to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 8.1
of the Trust Agreement;

 

FOURTH:  to the
Administrator its accrued and unpaid Administration Fees;

 

FIFTH:  to the Note
Distribution Account for distribution pursuant to Section 8.2(e) to
the extent of all amounts payable under such Section, other than any amounts
that would be deposited into the Certificate Distribution Account under such
Section;

 

SIXTH:  first, to
the Backup Servicer, to cover any accrued and unpaid reimbursable expenses
(including the Backup Servicer Expenses) to the extent unreimbursed after
application of Section 4.12 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement and second to the Servicer, to cover any accrued and unpaid
reimbursable expenses;

 

SEVENTH:  to the
Trustee for amounts due to the Trustee under Article VIII
of the Trust Agreement to the extent not paid under clause THIRD
above; and

 

EIGHTH:  to the
Issuing Entity for distribution to the Certificateholders.

 

The
Indenture Trustee may fix a special record date and special payment date for
any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section.  At least 15 days before such special record
date, the Issuing Entity shall mail to each Noteholder, the Counterparties and
the Indenture Trustee a notice that states the special record date, the special
payment date and the amount to be paid.

 

SECTION 5.5.                                          Optional
Preservation of the Receivables.  If the Notes have been declared to be due and
payable under Section 5.2 following an
Event of Default, and such declaration and its consequences have not been
rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to
maintain possession of the Trust Estate. 
It is the desire of the parties

 

25

 

hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all
times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the
Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when
determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust Estate.  In determining whether to maintain possession
of the Trust Estate, the Indenture 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 Trust Estate for such purpose.

 

SECTION 5.6.                                          Limitation
of Suits.  No Holder
of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, 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 Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event
of Default;

 

(ii)                                  the Holder(s)
of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes have made written
request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of
such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

 

(iii)                               such Holder(s)
have offered to the Indenture Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the
costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

 

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

 

(v)                                 no direction
inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee
during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes;

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 5.7.                                          Unconditional
Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and Interest.  Notwithstanding any other provisions in this
Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on
such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note
or in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption
Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such
right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 

26

 

SECTION 5.8.                                          Restoration
of Rights and Remedies.  If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder
has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this
Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason
or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such
Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuing Entity, the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such
Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions
hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and
the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been
instituted.

 

SECTION 5.9.                                          Rights and Remedies Cumulative.  No right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders 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 Indenture Trustee
or any Holder of Notes to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any
Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute
a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein.  Every right and remedy given by
this Article or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be
exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the
Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

 

SECTION 5.11.                                    Control
by Noteholders.  The Holders
of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes shall have
the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for
any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided, that:

 

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

 

(ii)                                  subject to the
express terms of Section 5.4, any direction to the
Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be by all the
Noteholders;

 

(iii)                               if the
conditions set forth in Section 5.5 have
been satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Trust Estate
pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the Indenture Trustee by
Holders of Notes representing less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be of no force and effect;
and

 

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

 

27

 

provided
further, however, that, subject to Section 6.1, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action
that it determines might involve it in liability or might materially adversely
affect the rights of any Noteholder(s) not consenting to such action.

 

SECTION 5.12.                                    Waiver
of Past Defaults.  Prior to
the time a judgment or decree for payment of money due has been obtained as
described in Section 5.3, the Holders of Notes
of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes may waive
any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences except a
Default:  (a) in payment of principal of
or interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision
hereof that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of
each Note.  In the case of any such
waiver, the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes
shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively;
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

 

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

 

SECTION 5.13.                                    Undertaking
for Costs.  All parties
to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note 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 Indenture Trustee for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture 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 attorney’s fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due
regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to:  (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture
Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder(s) holding in the aggregate
more than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or (c) any suit instituted
by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or
interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such
Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the
Redemption Date).

 

SECTION 5.14.                                    Waiver
of Stay or Extension Laws.  The Issuing Entity 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
Issuing Entity (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
Indenture 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 Notes.  The
Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under
this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application
of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture.  Neither the 

 

28

 

Lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of
the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of
any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuing Entity or by the levy
of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or
upon any of the assets of the Issuing Entity. Any money or property collected
by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.4(b).

 

SECTION 5.16.                                    Performance
and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.  (a) 
Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at
the Administrator’s expense, the Issuing Entity shall take all such lawful
action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance
and observance by the Seller and the Servicer, as applicable, of each of their
obligations to the Issuing Entity under or in connection with the Sale and
Servicing Agreement or to the Seller under or in connection with the Purchase
Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise any and all
rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuing
Entity under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement (or the
Seller under or in connection with the Purchase Agreement) to the extent and in
the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of
notices of default on the part of the Seller or the Servicer thereunder and the
institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or
secure performance by the Seller or the Servicer of each of their obligations
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Purchase Agreement.

 

(b)         If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction
(which direction shall be in writing) of the Holders of not less than 66 2/3%
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes shall, exercise all rights, remedies,
powers, privileges and claims of the Issuing Entity against the Seller or the
Servicer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance
or observance by the Seller or the Servicer of each of their obligations to the
Issuing Entity thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction,
approval, extension or waiver under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and any
right of the Issuing Entity to take such action shall be suspended.

 

(c)          If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction
(which direction shall be in writing) of the Holders of not less than 66 2/3%
of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes shall, exercise all rights, remedies,
powers, privileges and claims of the Seller against CNHCA under or in
connection with the Purchase Agreement, including the right or power to take
any action to compel or secure performance or observance by CNHCA, of each of
its obligations to the Seller thereunder and to give any consent, request,
notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Purchase Agreement,
and any right of the Seller to take such action shall be suspended.

 

ARTICLE VI

The Indenture Trustee

 

SECTION 6.1.                                          Duties
of the Indenture Trustee.  (a)  If
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall
exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same
degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise
or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

 

29

 

(b)         Except during the
continuance of an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer:

 

(i)                                     the Indenture
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 Indenture Trustee;
and

 

(ii)                                  in the absence
of bad faith on its part, the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided,
however, in the case of any such
certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required
to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall examine
the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture.

 

(c)          The Indenture 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;

 

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

 

(iii)                               the Indenture
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
the Indenture;

 

(iv)                              the Indenture
Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of an Event of Default or Servicer
Default unless a Responsible Officer obtains actual knowledge of such event or
the Indenture Trustee receives written notice of such event from the Seller,
Servicer or Note Owners owning Notes aggregating not less than 10% of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes; and

 

(v)                                 the Indenture
Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the performance of the Issuing Entity,
the Trustee, the Seller or the Servicer, nor shall it have any liability in
connection with malfeasance or nonfeasance by the Issuing Entity, the Trustee,
the Seller or the Servicer.  The
Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in connection with compliance of the
Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Seller or the Servicer with statutory or
regulatory requirements related to the Receivables.  The Indenture Trustee shall not make or be
deemed to have made any representations or warranties with respect to the
Receivables or the validity or sufficiency of any assignment of the Receivables
to the Trust Estate or the Indenture Trustee.

 

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

 

30

 

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

 

(f)            Money held in trust by the
Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent
required by law, this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

(g)         No provision of this
Indenture shall require the Indenture 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 repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense 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 Indenture Trustee shall be subject to this Section and the
TIA.

 

SECTION 6.2.                                          Rights
of Indenture Trustee. 
(a)  The Indenture Trustee may
conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting on any document
reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper Person.  The Indenture Trustee
need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such document.

 

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

 

(c)          The Indenture Trustee may
execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder
either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, a custodian or a nominee,
and the Indenture 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.

 

(d)         The Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct,
negligence or bad faith.

 

(e)          The Indenture Trustee may
consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to
legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes 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.

 

(f)            The Indenture Trustee shall
not be required to make any initial or periodic examination of any files or
records related to the Receivables for the purpose of establishing the presence
or absence of defects, the compliance by the Issuing Entity with its representations
and warranties or for any other purpose.

 

31

 

(g)         In the event that the
Indenture Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent or Note Registrar hereunder,
the rights and protections afforded to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article VI shall also be afforded to the Indenture Trustee
in its capacity as such Paying Agent or Note Registrar.

 

SECTION 6.3.                                          Individual
Rights of the Indenture Trustee.  The Indenture Trustee shall not, in its
individual capacity, but may in a fiduciary capacity, become the owner of Notes
or otherwise extend credit to the Issuing Entity.  The Indenture Trustee may otherwise deal with
the Issuing Entity or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it
were not the Indenture Trustee.  Any
Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same
with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.

 

SECTION 6.4.                                          Indenture
Trustee’s Disclaimer.  The
Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation as
to the validity or adequacy of, this Indenture or the Notes; shall not be
accountable for the Issuing Entity’s use of the proceeds from the Notes; and
shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuing Entity in this
Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or
in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

 

SECTION 6.5.                                          Notice
of Defaults.  If a
Default occurs and is continuing and is known to a Responsible Officer, the
Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Counterparties and each Noteholder notice
of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. 
Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest
on any Note [(including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption
provisions of such Note)], the Indenture 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 Noteholders and the
Counterparties.

 

SECTION 6.6.                                          Reports
by Indenture Trustee to the Holders.  The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to each
Noteholder such information as may be required to enable such Holder to prepare
its federal, State and other income tax returns.  Within 60 days after each December 31,
starting with December 31, 20XX, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each
Noteholder a brief report as of such December 31 that complies with TIA § 313(a)
(if required by said section).

 

SECTION 6.7.                                          Compensation
and Indemnity.  The Issuing
Entity shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, pay to the Indenture Trustee from
time to time reasonable compensation for its services as agreed to between the
Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee in writing.  The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall
not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express
trust.  The Issuing Entity shall, or
shall cause the Servicer to, reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses 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
Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts.  The Issuing Entity shall or shall cause the
Servicer to indemnify the Indenture Trustee and its officers, directors,
employees and agents against any and all loss, liability or expense (including
attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by them in connection with the
administration of this trust and the performance of its duties 

 

32

 

hereunder. 
The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuing Entity and the Servicer
promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity.  Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify
the Issuing Entity and the Servicer shall not relieve the Issuing Entity or the
Servicer of its respective obligations hereunder.  The Issuing Entity shall, or shall cause the
Servicer to, defend the claim and the Indenture Trustee may have separate
counsel and the Issuing Entity shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, pay the
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the
Issuing Entity nor the Servicer need reimburse any expense or indemnify against
any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the
Indenture Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

 

The
Issuing Entity’s payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this
Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture or the earlier
resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee.  When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses
after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section
5.1(iv) or (v), 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 6.8.                                          Replacement
of the Indenture Trustee.  No resignation or removal of the Indenture
Trustee and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become
effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture
Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8.  The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time
by so notifying the Issuing Entity in writing. 
The Holders of not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee in
writing and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.  The Issuing Entity shall remove the Indenture
Trustee if:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(iv)                              the Indenture
Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

 

If
the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event
being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuing Entity
shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.

 

A
successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its
appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuing Entity.  Thereupon the resignation or removal of the
retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Indenture
Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee
under this Indenture.  The successor
Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to the Counterparties
and the Noteholders. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all
property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee.

 

33

 

If
a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture
Trustee, the Issuing Entity or the Holders of not less than a majority of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

 

If
the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11,
any Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

 

Notwithstanding
the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuing
Entity’s and the Administrator’s obligations under Section 6.7
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.  The retiring Indenture Trustee shall have no
liability for any act or omission by any successor Indenture Trustee other than
itself, serving again as Indenture Trustee.

 

SECTION 6.9.                                          Successor
Indenture Trustee by Merger.  If the Indenture 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 without any further act shall be
the successor Indenture Trustee.  The
Indenture Trustee shall provide prompt written notice of any such transaction
following the consummation thereof to the Issuing Entity, the Counterparties
and, subject to Section 11.21, to the Rating
Agencies; provided, that such corporation or banking association shall be
otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11.

 

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

 

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 Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee
shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one
or more Person(s) to act as co-trustee(s), or separate trustee(s), of all or
any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person(s), in such capacity
and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any
part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers,
duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture 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 Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate
trustee shall be required under Section 6.8.

 

34

 

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

 

(i)                                     all rights,
powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee
shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture
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 Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that
under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act(s) are to be
performed, the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform
such act(s), in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations
(including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in
any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate
trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;

 

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

 

(iii)                               the Indenture
Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove, in its sole
discretion, any separate trustee or co-trustee.

 

(c)          Any notice, request or other
writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to
each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given
to each of them.  Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and
the conditions of this Article 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
Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee. 
Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

 

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

 

(e)          The Indenture Trustee shall
have no obligation to determine whether a co-trustee or separate trustee is
legally required in any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate may
be located.

 

SECTION 6.11.                                    Eligibility;
Disqualification.  The
Indenture Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA § 310(a)
and, upon Issuing Entity Order, Section 26(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended.  The Indenture
Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $       as
set forth in its most recent published 

 

35

 

annual report of condition and it shall have a long
term senior, unsecured debt rating of “Baa3” or better by Moody’s (or, if not
rated by Moody’s, a comparable rating by another statistical rating
agency).  The Indenture Trustee shall
comply with TIA § 310(b), including the optional provision permitted by the
second sentence of TIA § 310(b)(9); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of
TIA § 310(b)(1) any indenture(s) under which other securities of the Issuing
Entity are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA
§ 310(b)(1) are met.

 

If
a default occurs under this Indenture, and the Indenture Trustee is deemed to
have a conflicting interest as a result of acting as trustee for both (1) the
Class A Notes and (2) the Class B Notes, a successor Indenture Trustee shall be
appointed for one or more of such Classes, so that there will be separate
Indenture Trustees for the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes,
respectively.  No such event shall alter
the voting rights of the Class A Noteholders or the Class B Noteholders under
this Indenture or any other Basic Document. 
However, so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class
A Notes, only the Indenture Trustee for the Class A Noteholders will have the
right to exercise remedies under this Indenture (but subject to the express
provisions of Section 5.4 and to the right of
the Class B Noteholders to receive their respective shares of any proceeds of
enforcement, subject to the subordination of the Class B Notes to the Class A
Notes as described herein).  Upon repayment
of the Class A Notes in full, but so long as any amounts remain unpaid with
respect to the Class B Notes, only the Indenture Trustee for the Class B
Noteholders will have the right to exercise remedies under this Indenture (but
subject to the express provisions of Section 5.4).

 

In
the case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Indenture Trustee with
respect to any Class of Notes, the Issuing Entity, the retiring Indenture
Trustee and the successor Indenture Trustee with respect to such Class of Notes
shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein the each
successor Indenture Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall
contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and
confirm to, and to vest in, the successor Indenture Trustee all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the
Notes of the Class to which the appointment of such successor Indenture Trustee
relates, (ii) if the retiring Indenture Trustee is not retiring with respect to
all Classes of Notes, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes of each
Class as to which the retiring Indenture Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in the retiring Indenture Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or
change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide
for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one
Indenture Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such
supplemental indenture shall constitute such Indenture Trustees co-trustees of
the same trust and that each such Indenture Trustee shall be trustee of a trust
or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder
administered by any other such Indenture Trustee; and upon the execution and
delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the
retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided
therein.

 

SECTION 6.12.                                    Preferential
Collection of Claims Against the Issuing Entity.  The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA §
311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed

 

36

 

in TIA § 311(b). 
An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject
to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

 

SECTION 6.13.            Information to Be Provided
by the Indenture Trustee. 
At any time when the Issuing Entity’s reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act are not
suspended, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the Servicer promptly after the
Indenture Trustee becomes aware of (a) the initiation of any legal
proceedings against the Indenture Trustee, or of which any property of the
Indenture Trustee is subject, that are material to the Noteholders, (b) any
developments in any such proceedings that are material to the Noteholders and (c) any
such material proceedings that are contemplated by any governmental authority against
the Indenture Trustee.

 

SECTION 6.14.            Representations and Warranties.  The
Indenture Trustee hereby represents that:

 

(a)   the Indenture Trustee is duly organized and validly existing as a

and be continuing, all or a portion of the funds in the Trust Accounts shall be
invested in Eligible Investments and reinvested by the Indenture Trustee upon
Issuing Entity Order, subject to the provisions of Section 5.1(b) of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement.  All
income or other gain from investments of monies deposited in the Trust Accounts
shall be deposited by the Indenture Trustee in the Collection Account, and any
loss or expenses resulting from such investments shall be charged to such
account.  The Issuing Entity will not
direct the Indenture Trustee to make any investment of any funds or to sell any
investment held in any of the Trust Accounts 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 Indenture
Trustee to make any such investment or sale, if requested by the Indenture
Trustee, the Issuing Entity shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel to such effect.

 

(b)   Subject to Section 6.1(c),
the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable for the selection of
Eligible Investments or by reason of any insufficiency in any of the Trust
Accounts resulting from any loss on any Eligible Investment included therein,
except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make
payments on such Eligible Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its
commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in accordance with
their terms; provided, however, that the limitation to the 

 

42

 

Indenture Trustee’s liability does not extend to any
actions constituting willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

 

(c)   If (i) the Issuing Entity shall have failed to give
investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Trust Accounts to the
Indenture Trustee by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) (or such other time
as may be agreed by the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee) on any
Business Day; or (ii) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been
declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.2,
or, if such Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event
of Default, but amounts collected or receivable from the Trust Estate are being
applied in accordance with Section 5.4(b) as
if there had not been such a declaration; then the Indenture Trustee shall, to
the fullest extent practicable, invest and reinvest funds in the Trust Accounts
in the Eligible Investments identified in clause (d) of
the definition of Eligible Investments.

 

(d)   [Reserved].

 

SECTION 8.4.              Release
of Trust Estate.  (a) 
Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Section 6.7, the Indenture Trustee may, and when
required by this Indenture shall, execute instruments to release property from
the Lien of this Indenture, or convey the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the
same, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with this
Indenture.  No party relying upon an
instrument executed by the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Article shall
be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee’s authority, inquire into the
satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any
monies.

 

(b)   The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as there are no Notes
Outstanding and all sums due to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 and the Counterparties under the Interest
Rate Swap Agreements have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Trust
Estate that secured the Notes from the Lien of this Indenture and release to
the Issuing Entity or any other Person entitled thereto any funds then on
deposit in the Trust Accounts.  The
Indenture Trustee shall release property from the Lien of this Indenture
pursuant to this paragraph only upon receipt of an Issuing Entity Request
accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel, and (if
required by the TIA) Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA §§ 314(c) and
314(d)(1) meeting the applicable requirements of Section 11.1
or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect
that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates.

 

SECTION 8.5.              Opinion
of Counsel.  The Indenture
Trustee shall receive at least seven days’ notice when requested by the Issuing
Entity to take any action pursuant to Section 8.4(a),
accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Indenture Trustee
shall also require, as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel
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 Notes or the rights of the Noteholders in
contravention of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required
to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Trust Estate.  Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely,
without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any 

 

43

 

certificate or other instrument delivered to the
Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, any such Opinion of Counsel shall include each Counterparty as an
addressee thereof.

 

ARTICLE IX

SECTION 9.1.              Supplemental
Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders.

 

(a)   Without the consent of the Holders of Notes but with prior written
notice to the Rating Agencies (which notice shall be given pursuant to Section 11.21), the Issuing Entity, the Counterparties
and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuing Entity Order, at any
time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental
hereto (which shall conform to the TIA as in force at the date of the execution
thereof), in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the
following purposes:

 

(i)            to correct or amplify the description of any property at
any time subject to the Lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and
confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be
subjected to the Lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the Lien of this
Indenture additional property;

 

(ii)           to evidence the succession, in compliance with the
applicable provisions hereof, of another Person to the Issuing Entity, and the
assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuing Entity herein
and in the Notes;

 

(iii)          to add to the covenants of the Issuing Entity, for the
benefit of the Holders of Notes, or to surrender any right or power herein
conferred upon the Issuing Entity;

 

(iv)          to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any
property to or with the Indenture Trustee;

 

(v)           to replace the Spread Account with another form of credit
enhancement; provided, the Rating Agency
Condition is satisfied;

 

(vi)          to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any
provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with
any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or to make any other
provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or
in any supplemental indenture; provided, that such action shall not materially
adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Notes;

 

(vii)         to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the
appointment hereunder by a successor or additional trustee with respect to the
Notes or any class thereof and to add to or change any of the provisions of
this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the
trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI;

 

(viii)        to modify, eliminate or add to the
provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the
qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or 

 

44

 

under any similar federal
statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as
may be expressly required by the TIA; or

 

(ix)           to amend the “Specified Spread Account Balance” definition
in a manner that results in an increase in the amounts required to be on
deposit in the Spread Account pursuant to such definition.

 

The
Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental
indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that
may be therein contained.

 

(b)   The Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by
an Issuing Entity Order, may, without the consent of any of the Holders of
Notes but with prior written notice to the Counterparties and the Rating
Agencies (which notice shall be given pursuant to Section 11.21),
enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto to cure any
ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Indenture or for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the
rights of the Holders of Notes under this Indenture; provided,
however, that such action shall not, as
evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller, adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of any Noteholder.  A supplemental indenture shall be deemed not
to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Class of
Notes if the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such
supplemental indenture for such Class of Notes.

 

(c)   With respect to any amendment pursuant to this Section 9.1, if any amendment or supplement would
either: (1) materially and adversely affect any of the Counterparties’
rights or obligations under an Interest Rate Swap Agreement or any other Basic
Document; or (b) materially and adversely modify the obligations of, or
materially and adversely impact the ability of, the Trust to fully perform any
of the Trust’s obligations under an Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Trust and
the Indenture Trustee shall be required to first obtain the written consent of
the applicable Counterparties to the affected Interest Rate Swap Agreements
before entering into any such amendment or supplement (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld).

 

SECTION 9.2.              Supplemental
Indentures With Consent of Noteholders.  The Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee,
when authorized by an Issuing Entity Order, may, with prior written notice to
the Counterparties and the Rating Agencies (which notice shall be given
pursuant to Section 11.21) and with the consent
of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuing Entity and
the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental
hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the Holders of Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that
no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Note affected thereby:

 

(i)            delay the Class Final Scheduled Maturity Date of any
Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate thereon or the
Redemption Price with respect 

 

45

 

thereto or change any place
of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest
thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement
of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds
available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount
due on or after the respective due dates thereof (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

 

(ii)           reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount, the
consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture,
or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance
with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and
their consequences provided for in this Indenture;

 

(iii)          modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the
definition of “Outstanding”;

 

(iv)          reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount required to
direct the Indenture Trustee to direct the Issuing Entity to sell or liquidate
the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.4;

 

(v)           modify any provision of this Section except to
increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional
provisions of this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot be modified or
waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby;

 

(vi)          modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such
manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or
principal due on any Note on any Payment Date (including the calculation of any
of the individual components of such calculation) [or to affect the rights of
the Holders of Notes to the benefit of any provisions for the mandatory
redemption of the Notes contained herein]; or

 

(vii)         permit the creation of any Lien ranking prior to or on a
parity with the Lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust
Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the
Lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive
any Holder of Notes of the security provided by the Lien of this Indenture.

 

It
shall not be necessary for any Act of the Noteholders under this Section to
approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it
shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining such consents (and
any other consents of Noteholders provided for in this Indenture or in any
other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution
thereof by Noteholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the
Indenture Trustee may provide.

 

Promptly
after the execution by the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall
mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental
indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such
supplemental indenture.  Any failure of
the Indenture 

 

46

 

Trustee
to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way
impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

 

With
respect to any amendment pursuant to this Section 9.2,
if any amendment or supplement would either: (1) materially and adversely
affect any of the Counterparties’ rights or obligations under an Interest Rate
Swap Agreement or any other Basic Document; or (b) materially and
adversely modify the obligations of, or materially and adversely impact the
ability of, the Trust to fully perform any of the Trust’s obligations under an
Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Administrator shall be required to first
obtain the written consent of the applicable Counterparties to the affected
Interest Rate Swap Agreements before entering into any such amendment or supplement
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

of Supplemental Indentures. 
In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX
or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the
Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and, subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.2, shall be
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the
execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this
Indenture.  The Indenture Trustee may,
but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that
affects the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities
under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

SECTION 9.4.              Effect of
Supplemental Indenture. 
Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the
provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and
amended in accordance therewith with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and
the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities
and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing
Entity and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined, exercised
and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and
amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture
shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture
for any and all purposes.

 

SECTION 9.5.              Conformity
with Trust Indenture Act. 
Every amendment of this Indenture and every supplemental indenture
executed pursuant to this Article IX
shall conform to the requirements of the TIA as then in effect so long as this
Indenture shall then be qualified under the TIA.

 

SECTION 9.6.              Reference
in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.  Notes authenticated and delivered after the
execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and
if required by the Indenture Trustee shall, bear a notation in form approved by
the Indenture Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental
indenture.  If the Issuing Entity or the
Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in
the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuing Entity, to any such
supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuing Entity and
authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for
Outstanding Notes.

 

SECTION 9.7.              Amendment
without Consent.  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary (other than as provided in Section 9.1(c) and
Section 9.2), any term or provision

 

47

 

of this Agreement may be amended by the Issuing
Entity and the Indenture Trustee without the consent of the Noteholders or any
other Person to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be necessary or
advisable in order to comply with or obtain more favorable treatment for the
Issuing Entity, the Seller or any of their Affiliates under or with respect to
any law or regulation or any accounting rule or principle (whether now or
in the future in effect); it being a condition to any such amendment that the
Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

 

SECTION 9.8.              Backup Servicer
Consent. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary,
for so long as there is a Backup Servicer, the Issuing Entity and the Indenture
Trustee shall not, without the consent of the Backup Servicer (such consent is
not to be unreasonably withheld), make, execute, acknowledge or deliver
amendments to this Indenture or enter into any supplemental indentures hereto
or thereto or otherwise waive or amend any provision of this Indenture if such
action shall have, or it is expected may have, a material adverse effect on the
Backup Servicer or any Successor Servicer.

Failure to give notice of redemption, or any defect therein, to any
Holder of any Note shall not impair or affect the validity of the redemption of
any other Note.

Article, become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price

Miscellaneous

 

SECTION 11.1.            Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc.  (a) 
Upon any application or request by the Issuing Entity to the Indenture Trustee

for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with, (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such
conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with and (iii) (if

in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of
such documents is specifically required by this Indenture, no additional
certificate or opinion need be furnished.

 

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

 

(w)          a statement that each
signatory of such certificate or opinion has read or has caused to be read such

(x)            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;

 

(y)           a statement that, in
the opinion of each such signatory, such signatory has made (or has caused to
be 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

 

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

 

(b) (i)  Prior to
the deposit of any Collateral or other property or securities with the
Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis for the release of any property
or securities subject to the Lien of this Indenture, the Issuing Entity shall,
in addition to any obligation 

 

49

 

imposed in Section 11.1(a) or
elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such
certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days after such deposit) to the
Issuing Entity of the Collateral or other property or securities to be so
deposited.

 

(ii)           Whenever the Issuing Entity is required to furnish to the Indenture
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate described in clause (i),
the Issuing Entity shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent
Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to the Issuing Entity of
the Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited and of all
other such Collateral or other property or securities made the basis of any
such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then-current fiscal
year of the Issuing Entity, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant
to clause (i) and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any
Collateral or other property or securities so deposited if the fair value thereof
to the Issuing Entity as set forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is (A) less
than $25,000 or (B) less than one percent of the then Outstanding Amount
of the Notes.

 

(iii)          Other than with respect to property as contemplated by clause (v), whenever any Collateral or other property or
securities are to be released from the Lien of this Indenture, the Issuing
Entity shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to
the fair value (within 90 days after such release) of the Collateral or other
property or securities proposed to be released and stating that in the opinion
of such person the proposed release will not impair the security under this
Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

 

(iv)          Whenever the Issuing Entity is required to furnish to the
Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of
any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii),
the Issuing Entity shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Independent
Certificate as to the same matters if the fair value to the Issuing Entity of
the Collateral or other property or securities and of all other property, other
than property as contemplated by clause (v), or
securities released from the Lien of this Indenture since the commencement of
the then-current fiscal year, as set forth in the certificates required by clause (iii) and this clause (iv),
equals 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such certificate
need not be furnished in the case of any release of Collateral or other
property or securities if the fair value thereof to the Issuing Entity as set
forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is (A) less than $25,000 or (B) less
than one percent of the then Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

 

(v)           Notwithstanding Section 2.9
or any other provision of this Section, the Issuing Entity may, without
compliance with the requirements of the other provisions of this Section:  (A) collect, liquidate, sell or
otherwise dispose of Receivables and Financed Equipment as and to the extent
permitted or required by the Basic Documents and (B) make cash payments
out of the Trust Accounts as and to the extent permitted or required by the Basic
Documents so long as the Issuing Entity shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee
every six months, commencing [Month Day], 20XX, an Officer’s Certificate of 

 

50

 

the Issuing Entity stating
that all such dispositions of Collateral that occurred since the execution of
the previous such Officer’s Certificate (or for the first such Officer’s
Certificate, since the Closing Date) were in the ordinary course of the Issuing
Entity’s business and that the proceeds thereof were applied in accordance with
the Basic Documents.

 

SECTION 11.2.            Form of Documents
Delivered to Indenture Trustee. 
In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or
covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all
such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such
Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one
such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one
or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify
or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

 

Any
certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuing Entity 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, opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or
opinion is based is/are erroneous.  Any
such certificate of an Authorized Officer or 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, the Seller, the
Issuing Entity or the Administrator, stating that the information with respect
to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Seller, the
Issuing Entity or the Administrator, as applicable, unless such Authorized Officer
or counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the
certificate, opinion or representations with respect to such matters is/are
erroneous.

 

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

 

Whenever
in this Indenture, in connection with any application, certificate or report to
the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuing Entity shall deliver any
document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of
the Issuing Entity’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 Issuing Entity to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the Indenture 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 11.3.            Acts of Noteholders.  (a)  
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders
may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instrument(s) of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents
duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided,
such action shall become effective when such 

 

51

 

instrument(s) are delivered to the Indenture
Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuing
Entity.  Such instrument(s) (and the
action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to
as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument(s).  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 6.1)
conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuing Entity, if made in
the manner provided in this Section.

 

(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 Indenture Trustee
deems sufficient.

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 11.4.            Notices, etc., to the
Indenture Trustee, Issuing Entity, Counterparties and Rating Agencies.  Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders, or other documents
provided or permitted by this Indenture, shall be in writing and, if such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of
Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

 

(a)   the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuing Entity,
shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or
filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office, or

 

(b)   the Issuing Entity by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder,
shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed,
first-class, postage prepaid, to the Issuing Entity addressed to:  CNH Equipment Trust 20XX-Y, in care of
[Wilmington Trust Company, Rodney Square North, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington,
Delaware 19890, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, (facsimile: (302)
636-4140)], and to New Holland Credit Company, LLC, as Administrator, 100
Brubaker Avenue, New Holland Pennsylvania, 17557, Attention: Finance Manager,
(facsimile: (630) 887-5448); with a copy to: New Holland Credit Company, LLC,
6900 Veterans Boulevard, Burr Ridge, Illinois 60527, Attention: Assistant
Treasurer, (facsimile: (630) 887-5448), or at any other address or facsimile
number previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuing
Entity or the Administrator.  The Issuing
Entity shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders
to the Indenture Trustee and the Counterparties, or

 

(c)   the Counterparties by the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee,
shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, hand delivered or sent by overnight courier
service or by telecopy in legible form to the Counterparties addressed to:         , or at any other address or facsimile

 

52

 

number previously furnished
in writing to the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee by the applicable
Counterparty.

 

Subject
to Section 11.21, notices required to
be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuing Entity, the Counterparties, the
Indenture Trustee or the Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered or
mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by facsimile to their
respective addresses or facsimile numbers set forth above or, to the extent not
set forth there, as set forth in Section 10.3
of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

SECTION 11.5.            Notices to Noteholders;
Waiver.  Where this
Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be
sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such
event, at his address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving
of such notice.  In any case where notice
to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor
any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect
the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any
notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be
presumed to have been duly given.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 11.6.            Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. 
Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to
the contrary, the Issuing Entity may enter into any agreement with any Holder
of a Note providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee
or any Paying Agent to such Holder, that is different from the methods provided
for in this Indenture or the Notes for such payments or notices.  The Issuing Entity will furnish to the
Indenture Trustee a copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee will
cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such
agreements.

 

SECTION 11.7.            Conflict with Trust
Indenture Act.  If any
provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof
that is required to be included in this Indenture by the TIA, such required
provision shall control.

 

53

 

The
provisions of TIA §§ 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 11.8.            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 11.9.            Successors and Assigns.  All
covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuing Entity
shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.  All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents of the
Indenture Trustee.

 

SECTION 11.10.          Severability.  Any provision of this Indenture or the Notes
that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or of the
Notes, as applicable, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

 

SECTION 11.11.          Benefits of Indenture.  Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes,
express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and
their successors hereunder, the Noteholders, the Counterparties, the Trustee,
the Backup Servicer, a Successor Servicer, any other party secured hereunder
and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Trust
Estate, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this
Indenture.

 

SECTION 11.12.          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 Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such
date, but may be made on the next 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 11.13.          Governing Law.  This Indenture shall be construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, and the obligations, rights
and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with
such laws.

 

SECTION 11.14.          Counterparts.  This Indenture may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument.

 

SECTION 11.15.          Recording of Indenture.  If this Indenture is subject to recording in
any public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuing
Entity and, at its expense, accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (which may be
counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel reasonably acceptable to
the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is necessary either
for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or
for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture Trustee
under this Indenture.

 

54

 

SECTION 11.16.          Trust Obligation.  No recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuing Entity, the Trustee
or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any
certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith,
against:  (i) the Indenture Trustee
or the Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a
beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity or (iii) any partner, owner,
beneficiary, officer, director, employee or agent of:  (a) the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee
in their individual capacities, (b) any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuing Entity, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or (c) of any
successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee in their individual
capacities, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it being
understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Trustee have no such obligations
in their individual capacities) and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary
shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid
consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture,
in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuing Entity
hereunder, the Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of,
Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement.

 

SECTION 11.17.          No Petition.  The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this
Indenture, and each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenant and agree
that they will not at any time institute against the Seller or the Issuing
Entity, or solicit or join or cooperate with or encourage any institution
against the Seller or the Issuing Entity of, any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under
any United States federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with
any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any of the Basic
Documents.  The foregoing shall not limit
the rights of the Indenture Trustee to file any claim in or otherwise take any
action with respect to any insolvency proceeding that was instituted against
the Issuing Entity by any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.

 

SECTION 11.18.          Inspection.  The Issuing Entity agrees that, on reasonable
prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee,
during the Issuing Entity’s normal business hours, to examine all the books of
account, records, reports and other papers of the Issuing Entity, to make
copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent
certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuing Entity’s affairs,
finances and accounts with the Issuing Entity’s officers, employees and
Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as
often as may be reasonably requested. 
The Indenture Trustee shall and shall cause its representatives to hold
in confidence all such information; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall
not be construed to prohibit:  (i) disclosure
of any and all information that is or becomes publicly known, or information
obtained by the Indenture Trustee from sources other than the Issuing Entity or
Servicer, (ii) disclosure of any and all information:  (A) if required to do so by any
applicable statute, law, rule or regulation, (B) to any government
agency or regulatory or self-regulatory body having or claiming authority to
regulate or oversee any aspects of the Indenture Trustee’s business or that of
its Affiliates, (C) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigative demand
or similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or
arbitration to which the Indenture Trustee or an Affiliate or any officer,
director, employee or shareholder thereof is subject, (D) in any
preliminary or final offering circular, registration statement or contract or
other document pertaining to the transactions contemplated by the Indenture and
approved in advance by the 

 

55

 

Issuing Entity or (E) to any Affiliate,
independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Indenture
Trustee having a need to know the same; provided,
that the Indenture Trustee advises such recipient of the confidential nature of
the information being disclosed and such recipient agrees to keep such
information confidential, and provided
further, that the Indenture Trustee promptly notifies the Issuing Entity
of any disclosure of such information that it is required to make pursuant to
the preceding clause (A), (B) or
(C) so that the Issuing
Entity may seek appropriate protective orders or restrictions on the disclosure
of the information involved; (iii) any other disclosure authorized by the
Issuing Entity or the Servicer or (iv) disclosure to the other parties to
the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents.

 

SECTION 11.19.          Subordination.  Issuing Entity and each Noteholder by
accepting a Note acknowledge and agree that such Note represents indebtedness
of Issuing Entity and does not represent an interest in any assets (other than
the Trust Estate) of CNHCR (including by virtue of any deficiency claim in
respect of obligations not paid or otherwise satisfied from the Trust Estate
and proceeds thereof).  In furtherance of
and not in derogation of the foregoing, to the extent CNHCR enters into other
securitization transactions, the Issuing Entity as well as each Noteholder by
accepting a Note acknowledge and agree that it shall have no right, title or
interest in or to any assets (or interests therein) (other than Trust Estate)
conveyed or purported to be conveyed by CNHCR to another securitization trust
or other Person or Persons in connection therewith (whether by way of a sale,

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

 

This
Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuing Entity,
designated as its                 %
Class A-1 Asset Backed Notes (herein called the “A-1 Notes” or the “Notes”), all issued under an Indenture
dated as of [Month Day], 20XX (such Indenture, as supplemented or amended, is
herein called the “Indenture”)
between the Issuing Entity and [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A.], not in its individual capacity but solely as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any successor
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes.  The Notes
are subject to all terms of the Indenture. 
All terms used in this Note that are not otherwise defined herein and
that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in
or pursuant to the Indenture.

 

The
Notes, the A-2 Notes, the A-3 Notes and the A-4 Notes are and will be equally
and ratably secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided
in the Indenture.

 

The
Issuing Entity shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the
A-1 Note Rate to the extent lawful.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in the Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse
may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the
Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or
any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith,
against:  (i) the Indenture Trustee
or the Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a
beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity or (iii) any partner, owner,
beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of:  (a) the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee
in their individual capacities, (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in
the Issuing Entity, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of (c) any
successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee in their individual
capacities, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that
any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent
provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital
contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such partner,
owner or beneficiary.

 

It
is the intent of the Seller, the Servicer, the Noteholders and the Note Owners
that, for purposes of federal and State income tax and any other tax measured
in whole or in part by income, the Notes qualify as debt.  Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance
of a Note, or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note,
agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the
Notes for such tax purposes as debt.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that by accepting
the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder will not at any time
institute against the Seller or the Issuing Entity, or join in any institution
against the Seller or the Issuing Entity of, any bankruptcy, reorganization or
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States
federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

 

Exhibit A-1 (Page 5)

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or in the case of Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in the Note, represents that either (a) it is
not (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the
provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, (iii) any
entity whose underlying assets include plan assets of any of the foregoing
(each a “Benefit Plan”), or (iv) a
governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32)
of ERISA) that is subject to any law substantially similar to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) the
purchase and holding of the Note, or a beneficial interest therein, will not
result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975
of the Code or any substantially similar applicable law.

 

This
Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties
hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

 

No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuing Entity, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note
at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the
Basic Documents, neither [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.], in
its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing
Entity, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers,
directors, employees, successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor
shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or
interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants,
obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note or the Indenture, it
being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and
indemnifications have been made by the Indenture Trustee for the sole purposes
of binding the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the assets of the Issuing
Entity.  The Holder of this Note by the
acceptance hereof, and each Note Owner by the acceptance of a beneficial
interest herein, each agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder
and Note Owner shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any
deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided,
however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to,
and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing Entity for any and all
liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this
Note.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

 

This
Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuing Entity, designated as
its       % Class A-3 Asset Backed
Notes (herein called the “A-3 Notes” or
the “Notes”), all issued under an Indenture
dated as of [Month Day], 20XX (such Indenture, as supplemented or amended, is
herein called the “Indenture”)
between the Issuing Entity and [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A.], not in its individual capacity but solely as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any successor
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes.  The Notes
are subject to all terms of the Indenture. 
All terms used in this Note that are not otherwise defined herein and
that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in
or pursuant to the Indenture.

 

The
Notes, the A-1 Notes, the A-2 Notes and the A-4 Notes are and will be equally
and ratably secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided
in the Indenture.

 

The
Issuing Entity shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the
A-3 Note Rate to the extent lawful.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in the Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse
may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the
Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or
any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith,
against:  (i) the Indenture Trustee
or the Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a
beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity or (iii) any partner, owner,
beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of:  (a) the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee
in their individual capacities, (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in
the Issuing Entity, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of (c) any
successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee in their individual
capacities, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that
any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent
provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid
capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such
partner, owner or beneficiary.

 

It
is the intent of the Seller, the Servicer, the Noteholders and the Note Owners
that, for purposes of federal and State income tax and any other tax measured
in whole or in part by income, the Notes qualify as debt.  Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance
of a Note, or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note,
agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the
Notes for such tax purposes as debt.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that by accepting
the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder will not at any time
institute against the Seller or the Issuing Entity, or join in any institution
against the Seller or the Issuing Entity of, any bankruptcy, reorganization or
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States 

 

Exhibit A-3 (Page 5)

 

federal
or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating
to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or in the case of Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in the Note, represents that either (a) it is
not (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the
provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, (iii) any
entity whose underlying assets include plan assets of any of the foregoing
(each a “Benefit Plan”), or (iv) a
governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32)
of ERISA) that is subject to any law substantially similar to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) the
purchase and holding of the Note, or a beneficial interest therein, will not
result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975
of the Code or any substantially similar applicable law.

 

This
Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties
hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

 

No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuing Entity, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note
at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the
Basic Documents, neither [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.], in
its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing
Entity, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers,
directors, employees, successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor
shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or
interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants,
obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note or the Indenture, it
being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and
indemnifications have been made by the Indenture Trustee for the sole purposes
of binding the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the assets of the Issuing
Entity.  The Holder of this Note by the
acceptance hereof, and each Note Owner by the acceptance of a beneficial
interest herein, each agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder
and Note Owner shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any
deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and
enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing Entity for any and all
liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this
Note.

that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in
or pursuant to the Indenture.

Notes, the A-1 Notes, the A-2 Notes, the A-3 Notes and the A-4a Notes are and
will be equally and ratably secured by the collateral pledged as security
therefor as provided in the Indenture.

Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or
beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law,

It

agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the
Notes for such tax purposes as debt.

 

Each

Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or in the case of Note Owner,
a beneficial interest in the Note, represents that either (a) it is not (i) an
employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of
ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan
described in Section 4975(e)(1) of
the Code, (iii) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets of
any of the foregoing (each a “Benefit Plan”),
or (iv) a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) that is subject to any law
substantially similar to ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code or (b) the purchase and holding of the Note, or a beneficial
interest therein, will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any
substantially similar applicable law.

 

This
Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties
hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

 

No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuing Entity, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note
at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the
Basic Documents, neither [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.], in
its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing
Entity, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers,

herein, each agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents,
in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder and Note
Owner shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss
or claim therefrom; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and
enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing Entity for any and all
liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this
Note.

% CLASS B ASSET BACKED NOTES

 

CNH
Equipment Trust 20XX-Y, a statutory trust organized and existing under the laws
of the State of Delaware (including any successor, the “Issuing
Entity”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE &
CO. or registered assigns, the principal sum of                           ($                        ),
partially payable on each Payment Date in an amount equal to the aggregate amount,
if any, payable from the Note Distribution Account in respect of principal on
the Class B Notes pursuant to Section 3.1
of the Indenture; provided, however, that the
entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the
earlier of the [Month Day], 20XX Payment Date and the Redemption Date, if any,
pursuant to Section 10.1(a) of the
Indenture.  No payments of principal of
the Notes will be made on any Payment Date until the A-1 Notes, the A-2 Notes,
the A-3 Notes and the A-4 Notes have been paid in full.  The Issuing Entity will pay interest on this
Note at the rate per annum shown above, on each Payment Date until the
principal of this Note is paid or made available for payment, on the principal
amount of this Note outstanding on the preceding Payment Date (after giving
effect to all payments of principal made on the preceding Payment Date),
subject to certain limitations contained in Section 3.1
of the Indenture.  Interest on this Note
will accrue for each Payment Date from the most recent Payment Date on which
interest has been paid to but excluding the then current Payment Date or, if no
interest has yet been paid, from the date hereof.  Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.  Such principal of and interest on this Note
shall be paid in the manner specified in the Indenture.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

 

This
Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuing Entity,
designated as its               %
Class B Asset Backed Notes (herein called the “Class B
Notes” or the “Notes”), all
issued under an Indenture dated as of [Month Day], 20XX (such Indenture, as
supplemented or amended, is herein called the “Indenture”)
between the Issuing Entity and [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A.], not in its individual capacity but solely as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any successor
Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes.  The Notes
are subject to all terms of the Indenture. 
All terms used in this Note that are not otherwise defined herein and
that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in
or pursuant to the Indenture.

 

The
Class B Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by the collateral
pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture, but the interest of
the Class B Noteholders in such collateral is subordinated and second to the rights
of the Class A Noteholders.

 

The
Issuing Entity shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the
Class B Note Rate to the extent lawful.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in the Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse
may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the
Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or
any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith,
against:  (i) the Indenture Trustee or
the Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a beneficial
interest in the Issuing Entity or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent,
officer, director or employee of:  (a)
the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee in their individual capacities, (b) any
holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, the Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee or of (c) any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or
the Trustee in their individual capacities, except as any such Person may have
expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall
be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid
consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any
installment or call owing to such partner, owner or beneficiary.

 

It
is the intent of the Seller, the Servicer, the Noteholders and the Note Owners
that, for purposes of federal and State income tax and any other tax measured
in whole or in part by income, the Notes qualify as debt.  Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance
of a Note, or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note,
agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the
Notes for such tax purposes as debt.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that by accepting
the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder will not at any time
institute against the Seller or the Issuing Entity, or join in any institution
against the Seller or the Issuing Entity of, any bankruptcy, 

 

Exhibit A-5 (Page 5)

 

reorganization
or arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States
federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the Basic Documents.

 

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note, or in the case of Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in the Note, represents that either (a) it is not
(i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section
3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of
ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section
4975(e)(1) of the Code, (iii) any entity whose underlying assets
include plan assets of any of the foregoing (each a “Benefit Plan”),
or (iv) a governmental plan (as defined in Section
3(32) of ERISA) that is subject to any law substantially similar to
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code
or (b) the purchase and holding of the Note, or a beneficial interest therein,
will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any
substantially similar applicable law.

 

This
Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties
hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

 

No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuing Entity, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note
at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the
Basic Documents, neither [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.], in
its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuing
Entity, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers,
directors, employees, successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor
shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or
interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants,
obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note or the Indenture, it
being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and
indemnifications have been made by the Indenture Trustee for the sole purposes
of binding the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the assets of the Issuing
Entity.  The Holder of this Note by the
acceptance hereof, and each Note Owner by the acceptance of a beneficial interest
herein, each agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents,
in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder and Note
Owner shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss
or claim therefrom; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and
enforcement against, the assets of the Issuing Entity for any and all

Note.

FORM OF SECTION 3.9 OFFICER’S CERTIFICATE

 

[The
Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.]

[2 North LaSalle Street, Suite 1020

Chicago, Illinois 60602]

 

Pursuant
to Section 3.9 of the Indenture,
dated as of [Month Day], 20XX (the “Indenture”)
between CNH Equipment Trust 20XX-Y (the “Issuing Entity”)
and [The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.], as Indenture Trustee,
the undersigned hereby certifies that:

 

(a)           a review of the activities of the
Issuing Entity during the previous fiscal year and of performance under the
Indenture has been made under the supervision of the undersigned; and

 

(b)           to the best knowledge of the
undersigned, based on such review, the Issuing Entity has complied with all
conditions and covenants under the Indenture throughout such year. [or, if
there has been a default in the compliance of any such condition or covenant,
this certificate is to specify each such default known to the undersigned and
the nature and status thereof]

  Title:

  	
   

  

 

Exhibit B (Page 1)

 

Schedule P

 

1.             General.  The Indenture creates[, or with respect to
the Receivables that are Subsequent Receivables upon the transfer of such
Subsequent Receivables pursuant to the Subsequent Transfer Assignment will
create,] a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable
UCC) in all of the Issuing Entity’s right, title and interest in, to and under
(i) the Receivables, (ii) the security interests in the Financed Equipment
granted by Obligors pursuant to the Receivables, (iii) the Liquidity
Receivables Purchase Agreement (only with respect to Owned Contracts), (iv) the
Sale and Servicing Agreement (including all rights of the Seller under the
Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreements and the Purchase Agreement assigned
to the Issuing Entity pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement), and (v)
the Interest Rate Swap Agreements, in each case, in favor of the Indenture
Trustee, which, (a) security interest is enforceable upon execution of the
Indenture against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuing Entity as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable Debtor Relief Laws, now or
hereafter in effect, and by general principles of equity (whether considered in
a suit at law or in equity), and (b) upon filing of the financing statements
described in clause 4 below will
be prior to all other Liens.

 

2.             Characterization.  The Receivables constitute “tangible chattel
paper” within the meaning of UCC Section
9-102.  The rights granted
under the agreements described in clause 1(ii)
through (iv) constitute “general intangibles”
within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102.  The Issuing Entity has taken or will take all
steps necessary to perfect its security interest in the property securing the
Receivables within 10 days of the Closing Date.

 

3.             Creation.  Immediately prior to the grant to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuing Entity owns and has
good and marketable title to, or has a valid security interest in, the
Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

 

4.             Perfection.  The Issuing Entity has caused or will have
caused, within ten days of the Closing Date, the filing of all appropriate
financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate
jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest
granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture in the Receivables.  With respect to the Collateral that
constitutes tangible chattel paper, the Servicer or a Subservicer, as
custodian, received possession of such tangible chattel paper after the
Indenture Trustee received a written acknowledgment (which is contained in the
Sale and Servicing Agreement) from such custodian that it is acting solely as
agent of the Indenture Trustee.  All
financing statements filed under this clause 4
contain a statement that “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral
described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Secured
Party”.

 

5.             Priority.  Other than the security interest granted to
the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuing Entity has not
pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed
any of the Collateral.  The Issuing
Entity has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing
statements against the Issuing Entity that include a description of collateral
covering the Collateral other than any financing statement (i) relating to the
security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, (ii)
that has been terminated or relating to a security interest which has been
released, or (iii) that has been granted pursuant to 

 

Schedule P (Page 1)

 

the
terms of the Basic Documents.  None of
the tangible chattel paper that constitutes or evidences the Collateral has any
marks or notations indicating that they have pledged, assigned or otherwise
conveyed to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.  The Issuing Entity is not aware of any
judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against it.

 

6.             Survival of Perfection
Representations.  Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Indenture or any other Basic Document, the Perfection
Representations contained in this Schedule P shall be continuing, and remain in
full force and effect (other than with respect to Reacquired Receivables);

 

7.             No Waiver.  The parties to the Indenture:  (i) shall not, without obtaining a
confirmation of the then-current rating of the Notes, waive a material breach
of any of the representations and warranties in this Schedule P (the “Perfection Representations”); (ii) shall provide the Ratings
Agencies with prompt written notice of any material breach of the Perfection
Representations, and shall not, without obtaining a confirmation of the
then-current rating of the Notes (as determined after any adjustment or
withdrawal of the ratings following notice of such breach) waive a material
breach of any of the Perfection Representations.

 

8.             Servicer to Maintain Perfection
and Priority.  The Servicer covenants
that, in order to evidence the interests of Issuing Entity and the Indenture
Trustee under this Agreement, Servicer shall take such action, or execute and
deliver such instruments as may be necessary or advisable (including, without
limitation, such actions as are requested by Issuing Entity) to maintain and
perfect, as a first priority interest, the Indenture Trustee’s security
interest in the Receivables.  Servicer
shall, from time to time and within the time limits established by law, prepare
and present to the Indenture Trustee for the Indenture Trustee to authorize the
Servicer to file, all financing statements, amendments, continuations, initial
financing statements in lieu of a continuation statement, terminations, partial
terminations, releases or partial releases, or any other filings necessary or
advisable to continue, maintain and perfect the Indenture Trustee’s security
interest in the Receivables as a first-priority interest (each a “Filing”).  Issuing
Entity shall promptly authorize in writing Servicer to, and Servicer shall,
effect such Filing under the Uniform Commercial Code without the signature of
the Indenture Trustee or Issuing Entity where allowed by applicable law.

Organization

 

SECTION 2.1                 Name.  The
Trust created hereby shall be known as “CNH Equipment Trust 20XX-Y”, in which
name the Trustee may conduct the business of the Trust, make and execute
contracts and other instruments on behalf of the Trust and sue and be sued.

 

SECTION 2.2                 Office.  The
office of the Trust shall be in care of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust
Office or at such other address as the Trustee may designate by written notice
to the Certificateholders and the Depositor.

 

SECTION 2.3                 Purposes
and Powers.  The purpose of the Trust is, and
the Trust shall have the power and authority to, engage in the following
activities:

 

(a)           to issue the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Trust
Certificates pursuant to this Agreement and to sell the Notes and/or the Trust
Certificates in one or more transactions;

 

(b)           with the proceeds of the sale of the Notes and/or the
Trust Certificates, [to fund the Pre-Funding Account and] to purchase the
Receivables pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement;

 

(c)           to assign, Grant, transfer, pledge, mortgage and convey
the Trust Estate pursuant to the Indenture and to hold, manage and distribute
to the Certificateholders pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement any
portion of the Trust Estate released from the Lien of, and remitted to the Trust
pursuant to, the Indenture;

 

(d)           to enter into and perform its obligations under the Basic
Documents to which it is to be a party;

 

(e)           to engage in those activities, including entering into
agreements, that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the
foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected therewith; and

 

(f)            subject to compliance with the Basic Documents, to engage
in such other activities as may be required in connection with conservation of
the Trust Estate and the making of distributions to the Certificateholders and
the Noteholders.

 

The
Trust shall not engage in any activity other than in connection with the
foregoing or other than as required or authorized by this Agreement or the
Basic Documents.

 

SECTION 2.4                 Appointment
of Trustee.  The
Depositor hereby appoints [Wilmington Trust Company] as Trustee of the Trust
effective as of the date hereof, to have all the rights, powers and duties set
forth herein.

 

SECTION 2.5                 Initial
Capital Contribution of Trust Estate.  The Depositor
hereby contributes to the Trustee, as of the date hereof, the sum of $1.00. The
Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt in trust from the Depositor, as of the date
hereof, of the foregoing 

 

2

 

contribution, which shall constitute the initial
Trust Estate and shall be deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account.
The Depositor shall pay organizational expenses of the Trust as they may arise
or shall, upon the request of the Trustee, promptly reimburse the Trustee for
any such expenses paid by the Trustee. 
The Depositor may also take steps necessary, including the execution and
filing of any necessary filings, to ensure that the Trust is in compliance with
any applicable State securities law.

 

SECTION 2.6                 Declaration
of Trust.  The Trustee hereby declares that
it will hold the Trust Estate in trust upon and subject to the conditions set
forth herein for the use and benefit of the Certificateholders, subject to the
obligations of the Trust under the Basic Documents. It is the intention of the
parties hereto that the Trust constitute a statutory trust under the Trust
Statute and that this Agreement constitute the governing instrument of such
statutory trust.  It is the intention of
the parties hereto that, solely for income and franchise tax purposes, until
the Trust Certificates are held by a Person other than the Depositor, the Trust
be disregarded as an entity separate from the Depositor and the Notes be
treated as debt of the Depositor.  At
such time that the Trust Certificates are held by more than one Person, it is
the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for income and franchise tax
purposes, the Trust be treated as a partnership, with the assets of the
partnership being the Receivables and other assets held by the Trust, the
partners of the partnership being the Certificateholders (including the
Depositor (or its successor in interest) in its capacity as recipient of
distributions from the Spread Account), and the Notes being debt of the partnership.  The parties agree that, unless otherwise
required by appropriate tax authorities, until the Trust Certificates are held
by more than one Person the Trust will not file or cause to be filed annual or
other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the
characterization of the Trust as an entity separate from the Depositor (or
other sole owner of the Trust Certificates). Effective as of the date hereof,
the Trustee shall have all rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in
the Trust Statute with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Trust.  The Trustee shall file a Certificate of Trust
on behalf of the Trust with the Secretary of State pursuant to Section 3810
of the Trust Statute.

 

SECTION 2.7                 Liability
of the Certificateholders.  No Certificateholder shall have
any personal liability for any liability or obligation of the Trust. The
Certificateholders shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal
liability extended to stockholders of corporations under the Delaware General
Corporation Law.

 

SECTION 2.8                 Title to
Trust Property.  Subject to the Lien granted in the
Indenture, legal title to all the Trust Estate shall be vested at all times in
the Trust as a separate legal entity except where applicable law in any jurisdiction
requires title to any part of the Trust Estate to be vested in a trustee or
trustees, in which case title shall be deemed to be vested in the Trustee, a
co-trustee and/or a separate trustee, as the case may be.

 

SECTION 2.9                 Situs of
Trust.  The Trust will be
located and administered in the States of [Delaware and Pennsylvania] and/or in
any other states to which the Depositor consents in writing.  All bank accounts maintained by the Trustee
on behalf of the Trust shall be located in the State of [Delaware or New York]
and/or in any other states to which the Depositor consents in writing.  The Trust shall not have any employees.  Payments will be received by the Trust only
in [Delaware or New York] and/or in any other states to which the Depositor
consents in writing 

 

3

 

and payments will be made by the Trust only from
[Delaware or New York] and/or in any other states to which the Depositor
consents in writing.

 

SECTION 2.10               Representations
and Warranties of the Depositor. 
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee that as of
the date hereof:

 

(a)           The Depositor is duly organized and validly existing as a
limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware, with power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its
business as such properties are currently owned and such business is presently
conducted.

 

(b)           The Depositor is duly qualified to do business as a
foreign limited liability company in good standing, and has obtained all
necessary licenses and approvals, in all jurisdictions in which the ownership
or lease of property or the conduct of its business shall require such
qualifications.

 

(c)           The Depositor has the power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement and to carry out its terms; the Depositor has full power and
authority to sell and assign the property to be sold and assigned to and
deposited with the Trust and the Depositor has duly authorized such sale and
assignment and deposit to the Trust by all necessary limited liability company
action; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been
duly authorized by the Depositor by all necessary limited liability company
action.

 

(d)           The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict with, result
in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or
without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the certificate of formation,
limited liability company agreement or by-laws of the Depositor, or any
indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Depositor is a party or
by which it is bound; or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon
any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement or
other instrument (other than pursuant to the Basic Documents); or violate any
law or, to the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, any order, rule or
regulation applicable to the Depositor of any court or of any federal or State
regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality
having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties.

 

(e)           The Depositor has duly executed and delivered this
Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation
of the Depositor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether
such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

SECTION 2.11               Federal
Income Tax Allocations; Tax Treatment.  If the Trust Certificates and interests in
the Spread Account are held by more than one Person, this Agreement shall be
amended to include such provisions as are required or appropriate under

 

4

 

Subchapter K of the Code in order for the Trust to
be treated as a partnership whose partners are the beneficial owners of the
Trust Certificates and the Depositor (or other holders of interests in the
Spread Account).

 

ARTICLE III

Trust Certificates and Transfer of Interests

 

SECTION 3.1                 Initial
Ownership.  Upon the
formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.5, and until the issuance
of the Trust Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the
Trust; and upon the issuance of the Trust Certificates, the Depositor will no
longer be a beneficiary of the Trust, except to the extent that the Depositor
is a Certificateholder.

 

SECTION 3.2                 The Trust
Certificates.  The Trust
Certificates shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and
shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an
authorized officer of the Trustee.  Trust
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to
sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be, when authenticated pursuant to Section 3.3, validly issued, fully
paid, non-assessable and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates
or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such
Trust Certificates.

 

SECTION 3.3                 Authentication
of Trust Certificates. 
Concurrently with the sale of the Receivables to the Trust pursuant to
the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall cause the Trust Certificate
evidencing the 100% beneficial interest in the Trust to be executed on behalf
of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the
Depositor, signed by its chairman of the board, its president, any vice
president, any secretary, any assistant secretary, any treasurer, or any
assistant treasurer, without further action by the Depositor.  No Trust Certificate shall entitle its holder
to any benefit under this Agreement, or shall be valid for any purpose, unless
there shall appear on such Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Trustee
by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories; such certificate
of authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence, and the only evidence,
that such Trust Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Trust Certificates shall be dated the date of their
authentication.  No further Trust
Certificates shall be issued except pursuant to Section 3.4 or 3.5 hereunder.

 

SECTION 3.4                 Registration
of Transfer and Exchange of Trust Certificates.  The Trust shall keep or cause to be kept, at
the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8,
a register (the “Certificate Register”)
in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trust
shall provide for the registration of Trust Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of Trust Certificates.  The
Trustee shall be the “Certificate Registrar”
for the purpose of registering Trust Certificates and the transfers of Trust
Certificates as herein provided.  Upon
any resignation of any Certificate Registrar, the Depositor shall promptly
appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume
the duties of the Certificate Registrar. 
The initial Trust Certificate shall be registered in the name of [“CNH Capital Receivables LLC”] as the
initial registered owner thereof.

 

5

 

Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office
or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8,
the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates
evidencing such transferee’s beneficial interest in the Trust, which Trust
Certificates will be issued in amounts equal, in the aggregate, to the
percentage of beneficial interest in the Trust transferred by such transferor.

 

At
the option of a Certificateholder, upon surrender of the Trust Certificates to
be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.8, a Trust Certificate may
be exchanged for a new Trust Certificate evidencing the same percentage of
beneficial interest in the Trust as the Trust Certificate so exchanged.  Whenever any Trust Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver
the Trust Certificates that the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled
to receive.

 

All
Trust Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Trust Certificates shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement
as the Trust Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or
exchange.

 

Every
Trust Certificate 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 and the Certificate Registrar
duly executed by, the Certificateholder thereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing. No transfer of a Trust Certificate shall be registered unless the
transferee shall have provided (i) if the transferee is not the Seller or
an Affiliate of the Seller and the transferor is not the Seller or an Affiliate
of the Seller, an opinion of counsel that no registration is required under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or applicable State laws, and (ii) if
the transferee is the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller, an Officer’s
Certificate as to compliance with Section 6.6
of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. 
Each Trust Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Trustee in
accordance with its customary practice.

 

No
service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar may require payment 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 Trust Certificates.

 

The
Trust Certificates and any beneficial interest in such Trust Certificates may
not be acquired by: (a) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of
ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (b) a plan
described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any entity
whose underlying assets include plan assets of any of the foregoing (each a “Benefit Plan”). By accepting and holding a
Trust Certificate or an interest therein, the Certificateholder thereof shall
be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan. The
Trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether or not a Certificateholder
of a Trust Certificate is or is not a Benefit Plan.

 

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, no transfer of a Trust Certificate or
beneficial interest therein shall be allowed, and any such purported transfer
shall be void ab initio, if such
transfer would cause the Trust to have more than 100 partners within the
meaning 

 

6

 

of
Treasury Regulation section 1.7704-1(h)(1). 
For purposes of determining the number of partners in the Trust under
Treasury Regulation section 1.7704-1(h)(1), a person owning an interest in a
partnership, grantor trust, or S corporation (a “flow-through entity”) that owns, directly or through other
flow-through entities, an interest in the Trust, will be treated as a partner
in the Trust if more than 50 percent of the value of such person’s interest in
the flow-through entity is attributable to the flow-through entity’s interest
(direct or indirect) in the Trust.

 

No
transfer (or purported transfer) of a Trust Certificate (or any beneficial
interest therein), whether to another Certificateholder or to a person who is
not a Certificateholder, shall be effective, and any such transfer (or
purported transfer) shall be void ab initio,
and no person shall otherwise become a Certificateholder, and none of the
Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any of the Certificateholders
will recognize such transfer (or purported transfer), unless the transferee has
first represented and warranted in writing to the Trust that:

 

(A)          it is acquiring the Trust
Certificate for its own account and is the sole beneficial owner of such Trust
Certificate;

 

(B)           the transfer is not being
effected on or through (x) an “established securities market” within the
meaning of Section 7704(a)(1) of the Code, including without
limitation, an over-the-counter market or an interdealer quotation system that
regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations or (y) a “secondary
market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704(a)(2) of
the Code and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury Regulations thereunder;
and

 

(C)           such transfer will not cause
the Trust to be classified as a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, and such purchaser or transferee will not take any action,
including any subsequent disposition of such Trust Certificate (or any
beneficial interest therein), that would cause the Trust to be treated as a
publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

SECTION 3.5                 Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates.  If:  (a) any
mutilated Trust Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar,
or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Certificate (provided, that the
Trustee shall not be required to verify the evidence provided to it), and (b) there
shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee such security
or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then, in
the absence of notice that such Trust Certificate shall have been acquired by a
bona fide purchaser, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute,
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a replacement Trust Certificate
evidencing the same percentage of beneficial interest in the Trust as the Trust
Certificate so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen.

 

In
connection with the issuance of any replacement Trust Certificate under this
Section, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar may require the payment by
the Certificateholder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

 

7

 

Any
replacement Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate shall
constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally
issued, whether or not the mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed Trust
Certificate shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the
benefits of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 3.6                 Persons
Deemed Certificateholders.  Prior to due presentation of a Trust
Certificate for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate, the Trustee
or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Trust
Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register (as of the day of
determination) as the owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of
receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.2
and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor
the Certificate Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

 

SECTION 3.7                 Access
to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses.  The Trustee shall furnish or cause to be
furnished to the Servicer and the Depositor, within 15 days after receipt by
the Trustee of a request therefor from the Servicer or the Depositor in
writing, a list, in such form as the Servicer or the Depositor may reasonably
require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most
recent Record Date. If three or more Certificateholders evidencing in the
aggregate not less than 25% of the beneficial interest in the Trust apply in
writing to the Trustee, and such application states that the applicants desire
to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Trust Certificates and such application shall be
accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt
of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours
to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Certificateholder, by receiving
and holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any
of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee accountable by
reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived.

 

SECTION 3.8                 Maintenance
of Office or Agency.  The
Trustee shall maintain an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and
where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in respect of the Trust
Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served.  The Trustee shall give prompt written notice
to the Certificate Registrar of any surrender, transfer or exchange of the
Trust Certificates to the Trustee.  The
Trustee initially designates [its Corporate Trust Office] as its principal
corporate trust office for such purposes. 
The Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, to the
Certificate Registrar and to the Certificateholders of any change in the
location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

 

SECTION 3.9                 Appointment
of Paying Agent.  The Paying
Agent (or the Trustee if the Notes have been paid in full) shall make
distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account
pursuant to Section 5.2 and
the Indenture Trustee as Paying Agent shall report the amounts of such
distributions to the Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power
to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of
making the distributions referred to above. The Trustee may revoke such power
and remove the Paying Agent if the Trustee determines in its sole discretion
that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this
Agreement in any material respect.  The
Paying Agent 

 

8

 

shall initially be the Indenture Trustee, and any
co-paying agent chosen by and acceptable to the Trustee.  The Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign
as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Trustee. In the event that
the Indenture Trustee shall not be the Paying Agent, the Trustee shall appoint
a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust
company).  The Trustee shall cause such
successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Trustee
to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such successor
Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent (other than the Indenture Trustee or
the Trustee as Paying Agent) shall agree with the Trustee that as Paying Agent,
such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if
any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to
such Certificateholders.  The Paying
Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Trustee and upon removal of a Paying
Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the
Trustee.  The provisions of Sections 7.1, 7.3, 7.4 and 8.1 shall apply to the Indenture Trustee
or Trustee to the extent the Indenture Trustee or Trustee is a Paying Agent, for
so long as the Indenture Trustee or Trustee, as applicable, shall act as Paying
Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed
hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include
any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

 

ARTICLE IV

Actions by Trustee

 

SECTION 4.1                 Prior
Notice to Certificateholders With Respect to Certain Matters.  With respect to the following matters, the
Trustee shall not take action unless, at least 30 days before the taking of
such action (or such shorter period as shall be agreed to in writing by all
Certificateholders), the Trustee shall have notified the Certificateholders in
writing of the proposed action and the Certificateholders shall not have
notified the Trustee in writing prior to the 30th day (or such agreed upon
shorter period) after such notice is given that such Certificateholders have
withheld consent or shall not have provided alternative direction:

 

(a)           the initiation of any claim
or lawsuit by the Trust (except claims or lawsuits brought in connection with
the collection of the Receivables) and the compromise of any action, claim or
lawsuit brought by or against the Trust (except with respect to the
aforementioned claims or lawsuits for collection of Receivables);

 

(b)           the amendment of the
Indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is not required
and such amendment materially adversely affects the interest of the
Certificateholders;

 

(c)           the amendment, change or
modification of the Administration Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or
to amend or supplement any provision in a manner, or add any provision, that
would not materially adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders;
or

 

(d)           the appointment pursuant to
the Indenture of a successor Note Registrar, Paying Agent or Indenture Trustee,
or pursuant to this Agreement of a successor Certificate Registrar (other than
the Trustee), or the consent to the assignment by the 

 

9

 

Note Registrar, Paying Agent
or Indenture Trustee or Certificate Registrar (other than to the Trustee) of
its obligations under the Indenture or this Agreement, as applicable.

 

SECTION 4.2                 Action
By Certificateholders With Respect to Certain Matters.  The Trustee shall not have the power, except
upon the direction of the Certificateholders, to: (a) remove the
Administrator under the Administration Agreement, (b) appoint a successor
Administrator, (c) remove the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement;
or (d) except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, sell the
Receivables after the termination of the Indenture. The Trustee shall take the
actions referred to in the preceding sentence only upon written instructions
signed by the Certificateholders.

 

SECTION 4.3                 Action
By Certificateholders With Respect to Bankruptcy.  The Trustee shall not have the power to
commence a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy relating to the Trust (i) until
one year and one day after the Outstanding Amount of all the Notes has been
reduced to zero and (ii) without the unanimous prior approval of all
Certificateholders and (iii) without the delivery to the Trustee by each
such Certificateholder of a certificate certifying that such Certificateholder
reasonably believes that the Trust is insolvent.

 

SECTION 4.4                 Restrictions
on Certificateholders’ Power.  The Certificateholders shall not direct the
Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction
would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Trustee under this
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.3, nor shall the Trustee be
obligated to follow any such direction, if given.

 

SECTION 4.5                 Majority
Control.  Except as
expressly provided herein, any action that may be taken by the
Certificateholders under this Agreement may be taken by the Certificateholders
holding in the aggregate more than 50% of the beneficial interest in the Trust
at the time of such action. Except as expressly provided herein, any written
notice of the Certificateholders delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be
effective if signed by Certificateholders holding in the aggregate more than
50% of the beneficial interest in the Trust at the time of such action.

 

ARTICLE V

Application of Trust Funds; Certain Duties

 

SECTION 5.1                 Establishment
of Trust Account.  The Trustee
or the Paying Agent on the Trust’s behalf, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trust an
Eligible Deposit Account (the “Certificate
Distribution Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating
that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.

 

The
Trust shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from
time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds
thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Certificate
Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the
Trustee or the Paying Agent for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  If, at any time, the Certificate Distribution
Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee or the Paying
Agent on the Trust’s behalf (or the Depositor on behalf of the Trustee, if the 

 

10

 

Certificate
Distribution Account is not then held by the initial Paying Agent or the
Trustee or an affiliate thereof) shall, within 10 Business Days (or such longer
period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which the Rating Agency Condition
shall be satisfied), establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an
Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to
such new Certificate Distribution Account.

 

SECTION 5.2                 Applications
of Trust Funds.

 

(a)           On each Payment Date, the
Indenture Trustee (if any Notes are Outstanding or amounts are still due to the
Counterparties) or the Trustee (if the Notes and all payments to the
Counterparties have been paid in full) will distribute to Certificateholders,
on a pro rata basis, amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account
pursuant to Section 5.6 of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

(b)           On each Payment Date, the
Indenture Trustee or the Trustee, as applicable, shall make available using its
internet website or shall send to each Certificateholder the statement provided
to the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee, as applicable, by the Servicer
pursuant to Section 5.11 of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

 

(c)           In the event that any
withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to
a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable
to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section.  The Indenture Trustee and the Trustee, as
applicable, are hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise
distributable to the Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any
tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent
the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee, as applicable, from contesting any such
tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if
permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings).  The amount of any withholding tax imposed
with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to
such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust. If there is a
possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution
(such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Indenture Trustee
or the Trustee, as applicable, may, in its sole discretion, withhold such
amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c). 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trust shall
withhold and pay over to the Internal Revenue Service, pursuant to Sections
1441, 1442 and 1446 of the Code (or any successor provisions or any other
provision as may be enacted into law), at such times as required by such
provisions, such amounts as the Trust is required to withhold under such
provision on account of any foreign Certificateholder’s distributive share of
income of the Trust, as if the entire amount of such foreign Certificateholder’s
distributive share of such income is subject to withholding tax pursuant to
such provisions.  To the extent that a
foreign Certificateholder claims to be entitled to a reduced rate of, or
exemption from, U.S. withholding tax pursuant to an applicable income tax
treaty, or otherwise, such foreign Certificateholder shall furnish the
Depositor and the Trustee with such information and forms as it may require and
are necessary to comply with the regulations governing the obligations of
withholding tax agents, which the Depositor may forward to the Indenture
Trustee.  Each foreign 

 

11

 

Certificateholder represents
and warrants that any such information and form furnished by it shall be true
and accurate and agrees to indemnify the Trust and each of the other
Certificateholders from any and all damages, costs and expenses resulting from
the filing of inaccurate or incomplete information or forms relating to such
withholding taxes.  In the event that a
Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the
Indenture Trustee or the Trustee, as applicable, shall reasonably cooperate
with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such
Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee, as
applicable, for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

 

SECTION 5.3                 Method
of Payment.  Subject to Section 9.1(c),
distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Payment Date
shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date
either by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such
Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate
Registrar appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to
such Payment Date and such Certificateholder’s Trust Certificates aggregate not
less than $1,000,000, or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at
the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register.

 

SECTION 5.4                 No Segregation
of Monies; No Interest.  Subject to Sections 5.1 and 5.2, monies
received by the Trustee or the Paying Agent hereunder need not be segregated in
any manner except to the extent required by law or the Sale and Servicing
Agreement and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be
prescribed by law, and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as applicable, shall
not be liable for any interest thereon.

 

SECTION 5.5                 Accounting
and Reports to the Noteholders, Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue
Service and Others.  The
Depositor or, if any Trust Certificates are held by any Person other than the
Depositor or its Affiliate, the Trustee, shall: (a) maintain (or cause to
be maintained) the books of the Trust on a calendar year basis on the accrual
method of accounting, (b) deliver to each Certificateholder, as may be
required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, such information as
may be required (including Schedule K-1, if applicable) to enable each
Certificateholder to prepare its federal, State and local income tax returns, (c) file
such tax returns relating to the Trust (including, if applicable, a partnership
information return on Internal Revenue Service Form 1065 or its
successor), and make such elections as may from time to time be required or
appropriate under any applicable State or federal statute or rule or
regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Trust’s characterization as a
disregarded entity or partnership for federal income tax purposes, as
applicable, (d) cause such tax returns to be signed in the manner required
by law and (e) collect or cause to be collected any withholding tax as
described in and in accordance with Section 5.2(c) with respect to
income or distributions to Certificateholders. 
The Trustee shall elect under Section 1278 of the Code to include
in income currently any market discount that accrues with respect to the
Receivables and shall elect under Section 171 of the Code to amortize any
bond premium with respect to the Receivables. 
The Trustee shall not make the election provided under Section 754
of the Code.

 

12

 

SECTION 5.6                 Signature
on Returns; Tax Matters Partner.

 

(a)           The Depositor, or if any
Trust Certificates are held by any Person other than the Depositor, the Trustee
shall sign on behalf of the Trust the tax returns of the Trust, unless
applicable law requires a Certificateholder to sign such documents, in which
case such documents shall be signed by such Certificateholder.

 

(b)           In the event the Trust is
characterized as a partnership, in accordance with Section 2.6, the
Depositor shall be designated the “tax matters partner” of the Trust pursuant
to Section 6231(a)(7)(A) of the Code and applicable Treasury
Regulations.

 

ARTICLE VI

Authority and Duties of Trustee

 

SECTION 6.1                 General
Authority.  The Trustee
is authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Basic Documents to which
the Trust is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as
an exhibit to or contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Trust is to
be a party, in each case in such form as the Depositor shall approve as
evidenced conclusively by the Trustee’s execution thereof, and, on behalf of
the Trust, to direct the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver the
Notes in the aggregate principal amount specified in a letter of instruction
from the Depositor to the Trustee.  In
addition to the foregoing, the Trustee is authorized, but shall not be
obligated, to take all actions required of the Trust pursuant to the Basic
Documents.  The Trustee is further
authorized from time to time to take such action as the Administrator
recommends with respect to the Basic Documents.

 

SECTION 6.2                 General
Duties.  It shall be
the duty of the Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its
responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement and the Basic Documents to which
the Trust is a party and to administer the Trust in the interest of the
Certificateholders, subject to the Basic Documents and in accordance with this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall be deemed to have
discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the Basic
Documents to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Administration
Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Trustee hereunder
or under any Basic Document, and the Trustee shall not be held liable for the
default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the
Administration Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.3                 Action
upon Instruction.

 

(a)           Subject to Article IV and in accordance with
the Basic Documents, the Certificateholders may by written instruction direct
the Trustee in the management of the Trust. Such direction may be exercised at
any time by written instruction of the Certificateholders pursuant to Article IV.

 

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

 

13

 

(c)           Whenever the Trustee is
unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by
this Agreement or any Basic Document, the Trustee shall promptly give notice
(in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the
Certificateholders requesting instruction as to the course of action to be
adopted, and to the extent the Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with
any written instruction of the Certificateholders received, the Trustee shall
not be liable on account of such action to any Person.  If the Trustee shall not have received
appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter
period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be
necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take
or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the
Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action
or inaction.

 

(d)           In the event that the Trustee
is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any Basic
Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or
appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event
that this Agreement permits any determination by the Trustee or is silent or is
incomplete as to the course of action that the Trustee is required to take with
respect to a particular set of facts, the Trustee may give notice (in such form
as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Certificateholders
requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Trustee acts or refrains
from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the
Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any
Person.  If the Trustee shall not have
received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such
shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary
under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain
from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic
Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action
or inaction.

 

SECTION 6.4                 No
Duties Except as Specified in This Agreement or in Instructions.  The Trustee shall not have any duty or
obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell,
dispose of or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or
refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document
contemplated hereby to which the Trustee is a party, except as expressly
provided by this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received
by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3;
and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any
Basic Document against the Trustee.  The
Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any financing or continuation
statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain
the perfection of any security interest or Lien granted to it hereunder or to
prepare or file any Securities and Exchange Commission filing for the Trust or
to record this Agreement or any Basic Document. 
The Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and
expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any Liens on
any part of the Trust Estate arising by, through or under the Trustee
(including in its individual capacity) which are unrelated to the
administration or ownership of the Trust Estate.

 

14

 

Further,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other document, the
Trustee shall not be required to execute, deliver or certify on behalf of the
Trust, the Servicer, the Depositor or any other Person any filings,
certificates, affidavits or other instruments required under Section 302
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. 
Notwithstanding any Person’s right to instruct the Trustee, neither the
Trustee nor any agent, employee, director or officer of the Trustee shall have
any obligation to execute any certificates or other documents required pursuant
to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, and the refusal to comply with any such
instructions shall not constitute a default or breach under this Agreement or
any other document in connection herewith.

 

SECTION 6.5                 No
Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions.  The Trustee shall not manage, control, use,
sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except: (i) in
accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the
Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the Basic
Documents and (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction
delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.3.

 

SECTION 6.6                 Restrictions.  The Trustee shall not take any action (a) that
is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.3 or (b) that, to the
actual knowledge of the Trustee, would result in the Trust’s becoming taxable
as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.  The Certificateholders shall not direct the Trustee
to take action that would violate this Section.

 

ARTICLE VII

Concerning the Trustee

 

SECTION 7.1                 Acceptance
of Trusts and Duties.  The
Trustee accepts the trusts hereby created and agrees to perform its duties
hereunder with respect to such trusts but only upon the terms of this
Agreement. The Trustee also agrees to disburse all monies actually received by
it constituting part of the Trust Estate upon the terms of the Basic Documents
and this Agreement. The Trustee shall not be answerable or accountable
hereunder or under any Basic Document under any circumstances, except: (i) for
its own willful misconduct or negligence or (ii) in the case of the
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 7.3 expressly made by the
Trustee. In particular, but not by way of limitation (and subject to the
exceptions set forth in the preceding sentence):

 

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

 

(b)           the Trustee shall not be
liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in
accordance with the instructions of the Administrator, the Servicer or any
Certificateholder;

 

(c)           no provision of this
Agreement or any Basic Document shall require the Trustee to expend or risk
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of
its rights or powers hereunder or under any Basic Document, if

 

15

 

the Trustee shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured or provided
to it;

hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, that as of the date hereof (other than with respect to Section 7.3(e),
which is as of the dates specified therein):

 

16

 

(a)           it is a [banking
corporation] duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the
laws of the State of [Delaware], with the requisite corporate power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement,

 

(b)           it has taken all corporate
action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by it of this
Agreement, and this Agreement will be executed and delivered by one of its
officers who is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement on its
behalf,

 

(c)           the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not conflict with, result
in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or
without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the [certificate of incorporation
or by-laws] of the Trustee, or to the best of its knowledge without independent
investigation any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Trustee
is a party or by which it is bound; or violate any federal or State law
governing the banking or trust powers of the Trustee; or, to the best of the
Trustee’s knowledge, violate any order, rule or regulation applicable to
the Trustee of any court or of any federal or State regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction
over the Trustee or its properties,

 

(d)           this Agreement, assuming due
authorization, execution and delivery by the Depositor, constitutes a valid,
legal and binding obligation of the Trustee, enforceable against it in
accordance with the terms hereof subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity, regardless of
whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and

 

(e)           as of the date of the
Underwriting Agreement, the Preliminary Prospectus Date, the Prospectus Date
and the Closing Date, to its knowledge without independent investigation, there
are no legal proceedings pending against the Trustee, or of which any property
of the Trustee is subject, that are material to the Noteholders, and to the
knowledge of the Trustee no such legal proceedings are contemplated by any
governmental authority.

 

SECTION 7.4                 Information
to be Provided by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall notify the Depositor
promptly after the Trustee becomes aware of (a) the initiation of any

instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report,
opinion, bond or other document or paper (whether in its original or facsimile
form) believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the
proper party or parties. The Trustee may accept a 

 

17

 

certified copy of a resolution of the board of
directors or other governing body of any party as conclusive evidence that such
resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full
force and effect. As to any fact or matter the method of the determination of
which is not specifically prescribed herein, the Trustee may for all purposes
hereof rely on a certificate, signed by the president, any vice president, any
treasurer, any assistant treasurer, any secretary, any assistant secretary or
other authorized officers of the relevant party as to such fact or matter, and such
certificate shall constitute full protection to the Trustee for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

 

(b)           In the exercise or
administration of the trusts hereunder and in the performance of its duties and
obligations under this Agreement or the Basic Documents, the Trustee: (i) may
act directly or through its agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered
into with any of them, and the Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or
misconduct of such agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have
been selected by the Trustee with reasonable care, and (ii) may consult
with counsel, accountants and other skilled Persons to be selected with
reasonable care and employed by it.  The
Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good
faith by it in accordance with the written opinion or advice of any such
counsel, accountants or other such Persons and which opinion or advice states
that such action is not contrary to this Agreement or any Basic Document.

 

SECTION 7.6                 Not
Acting in Individual Capacity.  Except as provided in this Article VII, in accepting the trusts
hereby created [Wilmington Trust Company] acts solely as Trustee hereunder and
not in its individual capacity and all Persons having any claim against the
Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any
Basic Document shall look only to the Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction
thereof.

 

SECTION 7.7                 Trustee
Not Liable For Trust Certificates or Receivables.  The recitals contained herein and in the
Trust Certificates (other than the signature and counter-signature of the
Trustee on the Trust Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of the
Depositor, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness
thereof.  The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, of any
Basic Document, of the Trust Certificates (other than the signature and
countersignature, if any, of the Trustee on the Trust Certificates) or of the
Notes, or of any Receivable or related documents.  The Trustee shall at no time have any
responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and
enforceability of any Receivable, or the perfection and priority of any
security interest created by any Receivable in any of the Financed Equipment or

of any Financed Equipment, (b) the existence and enforceability of any
insurance thereon, (c) the existence and contents of any Receivable on any
computer or other record thereof, (d) the validity of the assignment of
any Receivable to the Trust or of any intervening assignment, (e) the
completeness of any Receivable, (f) the performance or enforcement of any
Receivable, and (g) the compliance by the Depositor or the Servicer with
any warranty or representation made under any Basic Document or in any related
document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation or any action 

 

18

 

of the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee or the
Servicer or any subservicer taken in the name of the Trustee.

 

SECTION 7.8                 Trustee
May Not Own Notes.  The Trustee shall not, in its individual
capacity, but may in a fiduciary capacity, become the owner or pledgee of Notes
or otherwise extend credit to the Issuing Entity.  The Trustee may otherwise deal with the
Depositor, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer with the
same rights as it would have if it were not the Trustee.

compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives,
experts and counsel as the Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise
and performance of its rights and its duties hereunder.

costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and
expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, “Expenses”), which may at any time be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Trustee or any other
Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the
Basic Documents, the Trust Estate, the administration of the Trust Estate or
the action or inaction of the Trustee hereunder, except only that the Depositor
shall not be liable for or required to indemnify an Indemnified Party from and
against Expenses arising or resulting from: (a) such Indemnified Party’s
willful misconduct or negligence, (b) with respect to the Trustee, the
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 7.3 expressly made by the
Trustee or (c) any tax imposed on an Indemnified Party based on, measured
by or with respect to the net or gross income, capital or net worth, gross or
net receipts, franchise, excess profits or conduct of business by such
Indemnified Party (including, but not limited to, taxes imposed on, measured by,
or with respect to any fees or compensation received by the Trustee
hereunder).  The indemnities contained in
this Section shall survive the resignation or termination of the Trustee
or the termination of this Agreement. In any event of any claim, action or
proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section, the
Trustee’s choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the
Depositor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

SECTION 8.3                 Payments
to the Trustee.  Any amounts
paid to the Trustee pursuant to this Article VIII
shall be deemed not to be a part of the Trust Estate immediately after such

entitled to interest on all fees and expenses that are due and unpaid for more
than sixty (60) days after they have been billed to the party responsible for
the 

 

19

 

payment of such amounts at a rate equal to the rate
publicly announced by [Wilmington Trust Company] as its prime rate from time to
time.

 

ARTICLE IX

Termination of Trust Agreement

 

SECTION 9.1                 Termination
of Trust Agreement.  (a) The
Trust shall dissolve upon the final distribution by the Trustee of all monies
or other property or proceeds of the Trust Estate in accordance with the
Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Article V.  The
bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of any
Certificateholder shall not: (x) operate to dissolve or terminate this
Agreement or the Trust, (y) entitle such Certificateholder’s legal
representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the
Trust or Trust Estate or (z) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and
liabilities of the parties hereto.

 

(b)           Except as provided in Section 9.1(a),
neither the Depositor nor any Certificateholder shall be entitled to dissolve,
revoke or terminate the Trust; provided  however, for the sake of
clarity, no action is necessary by the Depositor, the Certificateholder or any
other Person as a prerequisite for a dissolution under Section 9.1(a) to
occur.

 

(c)           Notice of any anticipated
dissolution of the Trust, specifying the Payment Date upon which the
Certificateholders shall surrender their Trust Certificates to the Paying Agent
for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly
by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed within five Business Days
of receipt of notice of such anticipated dissolution from the Servicer given
pursuant to Section 9.1(c) of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such notice from the Trustee shall state:
(i) the Payment Date upon which final payment of the Trust Certificates
shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates at the
office of the Paying Agent therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such
final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and
surrender of the Trust Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein
specified.  The Trustee shall give such
notice to the Certificate Registrar (if other than the Trustee) and the Paying
Agent at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. Upon presentation
and surrender of the Trust Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be
distributed to Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date
pursuant to Section 5.2.

 

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

 

20

 

shall
remain subject to this Agreement.  Any
funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such remedies shall be
distributed by the Trustee to the Depositor.

 

(d)           Upon the dissolution of the
Trust and the payment of all liabilities of the Trust in accordance with
applicable law, the Trustee shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be canceled
by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in
accordance with the provisions of Section 3810 (or successor section) of
the Trust Statute, at which time the Trust and this Agreement (other than Article VIII) shall terminate.

 

ARTICLE X

Successor Trustees and Additional Trustees

 

SECTION 10.1               Eligibility

of Section 26(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, (b) be authorized to exercise corporate trust powers, (c) have
a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and be subject to
supervision or examination by federal or State authorities, and (d) have
(or have a parent that has) a rating of at least “Baa3” by [    ].  If such corporation shall publish reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this
Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed
to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report
of condition so published. At all times, at least one Trustee of the Trust
shall satisfy the requirements of Section 3807(a) of the Trust
Statute. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.2.

 

SECTION 10.2               Resignation
or Removal of Trustee.

 

(a)           The Trustee may at any time
resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written
notice thereof to the Administrator. 
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrator shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one
copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one
copy to the successor Trustee.  Other than
such instrument, and as provided in Section 10.2(b) and 10.3 below,
no other documentation or action shall be required, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in the Basic Documents, no consent shall be
required of any Person with respect to such appointment or entering into any
such agreement, and the amendment provisions hereof will not apply to such
instrument.  If no successor Trustee
shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after
the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition at
the expense of the Administrator any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

If
at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with Section 10.1 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by the Administrator, or if at any time the
Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or
insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed,
or any public officer shall take charge or control 

 

21

 

of
the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation,
conservation or liquidation, then the Administrator may remove the
Trustee.  If the Administrator shall
remove the Trustee under the authority of the preceding sentence, the
Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing
Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee, and pay all fees owed
to the outgoing Trustee.  Other than such
instrument, and as provided in Section 10.2(b) and 10.3 below, no
other documentation or action shall be required, and notwithstanding anything
herein or in the Basic Documents to the contrary, no consent shall be required
of any Person with respect to such appointment or entering into any such
agreement, and the amendment provisions hereof will not apply to such
instrument.

 

(b)           Any resignation or removal
of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Section shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee
pursuant to Section 10.3 and
payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Trustee.  The Administrator shall provide notice of
such resignation or removal of the Trustee to each of the Rating Agencies and
the Counterparties.

 

SECTION 10.3               Successor
Trustee.  Any
successor Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 10.2
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its
predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this
Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee
shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties, and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like
effect as if originally named as the Trustee. 
Such instrument shall identify the situs of the Trust, locations where
payments will be made and/or received, and where bank accounts will be
maintained for purposes of Section 2.9 hereof, if such locations are to
change following such appointment.  As of
the effective date of such instrument, Section 2.9 hereof shall be read to
include such locations identified in such instrument. The predecessor Trustee
shall upon payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor Trustee
all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and
the Administrator and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully
and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee all such rights,
powers, duties and obligations.

 

No
successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless
at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible
pursuant to Section 10.1.

 

Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee pursuant to this Section, the
Administrator shall mail notice of such appointment to all Certificateholders,
the Indenture Trustee, the Counterparties, the Noteholders and the Rating
Agencies.  If the Administrator shall
fail to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the
successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed
at the expense of the Administrator. Any successor Trustee shall file an
amendment to the Certificate of Trust as required by the Statutory Trust Act.

 

22

 

SECTION 10.4               Merger
or Consolidation of Trustee.  Any corporation or other entity into which
the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or
any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or
substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided, such corporation shall be
eligible pursuant to Section 10.1,
without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the
part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding; and provided further, that the Trustee shall mail notice of
such merger or consolidation to the Counterparties and the Rating Agencies
subject to Section 11.18.

 

SECTION 10.5               Appointment
of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of
any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust or any Financed Equipment may
at the time be located, the Administrator and the Trustee acting jointly shall
have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or
more Person(s) approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee(s), jointly
with the Trustee, or separate trustee(s), of all or any part of the Trust
Estate, and to vest in such Person(s), in such capacity and for the benefit of
the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part thereof,
and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the Trustee may
consider necessary or desirable.  If the
Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after
the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Trustee alone shall have the power
to make such appointment.  No co-trustee
or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee pursuant to Section 10.1
and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be
required pursuant to Section 10.3.

 

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

 

(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(s) are to be performed, the Trustee shall be
incompetent or unqualified to perform such act(s), in which event such rights,
powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust
Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the
direction of the Trustee;

 

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

 

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

 

23

 

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 Agreement and the conditions
of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in
its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as
may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the
conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the
Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy
thereof given to the Administrator.

 

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

 

The
Trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether a co-trustee or separate
trustee is legally required in any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust
Estate may be located.

 

ARTICLE XI

Miscellaneous

 

SECTION 11.1               Supplements
and Amendments.  Any term or
provision of this Agreement may be amended by the Depositor and the Trustee
without the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder, the Issuing
Entity or any other Person subject to the satisfaction of one of the following
conditions:

 

(i)            the Depositor delivers an
Opinion of Counsel to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment
will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or
the Certificateholders; or

 

(ii)           the Depositor delivers an
Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor to the Indenture Trustee to the effect
that such amendment will not materially and adversely affect the interests of
the Noteholders or the Certificateholders.

 

An
amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Noteholders of a Class of Notes if the Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied with respect to such amendment for such Class of
Notes.

 

This
Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor and the
Trustee, with prior written notice to the Counterparties and the Rating
Agencies (which notice shall be given pursuant to Section 11.18), with the
written consent of (x) Noteholders holding Notes evidencing not less than
a majority of the Note Balance and (y) the Certificateholders holding in
the aggregate more than 50% of the beneficial interest in the Trust at the time
of such action, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying
in any manner the rights of the Noteholders 

 

24

 

or
the Certificateholders; provided, however,
that no such amendment shall: (a) reduce the interest or principal of any
Note or Certificate or delay the Final Scheduled Maturity Date of any Note or (b) reduce
the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount and the beneficial interest
in the Trust required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of
the holders of all the outstanding Notes and Trust Certificates.

 

Notwithstanding
the above, the permitted activities of the Trust set forth in Section 2.3 may not be significantly
amended without the consent of Noteholders, other than the Seller and its
Affiliates as Noteholders, evidencing not less than a majority of the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes held by parties exclusive of the Seller and its
Affiliates.

 

Promptly
after the execution of any such amendment or consent (or, in the case of the
Counterparties and the Rating Agencies, prior thereto), the Trustee shall
furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to
each Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee, the Counterparties and, subject
to Section 11.18, to each of the Rating Agencies.

 

It
shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders, the Noteholders
or the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section to approve the
particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be
sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of
obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Certificateholders provided
for in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document) and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject
to such reasonable requirements as the Trustee may prescribe.

 

Promptly
after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Trustee
shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State.

 

Prior
to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the Certificate of
Trust, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of
Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted
by this Agreement and that all conditions precedent to the execution and
delivery of such amendment has been satisfied. 
The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
amendment that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under
this Agreement or otherwise.

 

With
respect to any amendment pursuant to this Section 11.1,
if any amendment or supplement would either: (a) materially and adversely
affect any of the Counterparties’ rights or obligations under an Interest Rate
Swap Agreement or any other Basic Document; or (b) materially and
adversely modify the obligations of, or materially and adversely impact the
ability of, the Trust to fully perform any of the Trust’s obligations under an
Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee shall be
required to first obtain the written consent of the applicable Counterparties

of The Depositor.  If any litigation
with claims in excess of $1,000,000 to which the Depositor is a party that

Certificate acknowledges that such Certificateholder’s Trust Certificates
represent beneficial interests in the Trust only and do not represent interests
in or obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse may be
had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth
or contemplated in this Agreement, the Trust Certificates or the Basic

Information”) or (y) the language set forth in Section 11.16(b) that was furnished by [WTC] for use under the

together with the Periodic Information and the 11.15 Information, the “Trustee

(ii)           the omission to state in the

circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,

 

29

 

(b)           The Disclosure Information
for purposes of Section 11.16(a)(ii) is
as follows:

 

“[Wilmington
Trust Company] is the trustee under the trust agreement.  [Wilmington Trust Company is a Delaware
banking corporation] with trust powers [incorporated in 1903]. [Wilmington
Trust Company’s principal place of business is located at 1100 North Market
Street, Wilmington, Delaware, 19890]. [Wilmington Trust Company] has served as
trustee in numerous asset-backed securities transactions involving equipment
retail installment loans, consumer installment loans and retail installment
sale contracts.  [Wilmington Trust
Company has served as trustee for trusts involving securitizations of retail
installment sale contracts and retail installment loans by the depositor since
2007.]

 

[Wilmington
Trust Company] is subject to various legal proceedings that arise from time to
time in the ordinary course of business. [Wilmington Trust Company] does not
believe that the ultimate resolution of any of these proceedings will have a
materially adverse effect on its services as trustee or on the noteholders.

 

[Wilmington
Trust Company] has provided the above information for purposes of complying
with Regulation AB. Other than the above two paragraphs, [Wilmington Trust
Company] has not participated in the preparation of, and is not responsible for,
any other information contained in this prospectus supplement or the
accompanying prospectus.”

 

(c)           With respect to
the indemnification provided in Section 11.16(a), in no event will [WTC]
be liable for special, indirect or consequential damages relating to such
indemnification.  In case any proceeding
(including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any
person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant thereto, such
person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify [WTC] in writing. 
In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain
its own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be
at the expense of such indemnified party. 
[WTC] may, at its option, at any time upon written notice to the
indemnified party, assume the defense of any proceeding relating to such
indemnity and may designate counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party in connection therewith provided that the counsel so designated would have
no actual or potential conflict of interest in connection with such
representation.  Unless it shall assume the defense of any proceeding
[WTC] shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without
its written consent.  If [WTC] assumes the defense of any proceeding, it
shall be entitled to settle such proceeding with the consent of the indemnified
party or, if such settlement provides for release of the indemnified party in
connection with all matters relating to the proceeding which have been asserted
against the indemnified party in such proceeding by the other parties to such
settlement, without the consent of the indemnified party.

 

(d)           Depositor agrees to pay, and
to protect, indemnify and save harmless [WTC], and its respective officers,
directors, shareholders, employees, agents and each person, if any, who
controls [WTC], within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against, any and all
claims, losses, liabilities (including penalties), actions, suits, judgments,
demands, damages, costs 

 

30

 

or expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses
of attorneys or, as necessary, consultants and auditors and reasonable costs of
investigations) (collectively, “[WTC] Losses”) of any nature to the extent such
[WTC] Losses result from any untrue statement of a material fact contained
under the heading “Depositor” in the base prospectus contained in the
Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, any omission to state under the
heading “Depositor” in the base prospectus contained in the Preliminary
Prospectus and the Prospectus a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstance under
which they were made, not misleading, or any untrue information with respect to
Affiliation Parties provided by the Depositor pursuant to the last paragraph of
Section 11.14 (unless [WTC] has actual knowledge that such Affiliation
Party information is incorrect).

 

(e)           With respect to
the indemnification provided in Section 11.16(d), in no event will
Depositor be liable for special, indirect or consequential damages relating to
such indemnification.  In case any
proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted
involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant
thereto, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify Depositor
in writing.  In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the
right to retain its own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party.  Depositor may, at its option, at any time
upon written notice to the indemnified party, assume the defense of any
proceeding relating to such indemnity and may designate counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party in connection therewith provided that the
counsel so designated would have no actual or potential conflict of interest in
connection with such representation.  Unless it shall assume the defense
of any proceeding Depositor shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent.  If Depositor assumes the
defense of any proceeding, it shall be entitled to settle such proceeding with
the consent of the indemnified party or, if such settlement provides for
release of the indemnified party in connection with all matters relating to the
proceeding which have been asserted against the indemnified party in such
proceeding by the other parties to such settlement, without the consent of the
indemnified party.

 

SECTION 11.17             Paying Agent Protection.  The Paying Agent shall be entitled to all the
same rights, protections, immunities and indemnities as the Indenture Trustee
under the Indenture as if specifically set forth herein.

 

SECTION 11.18             Communications with Rating
Agencies.  The parties
hereto (other than the Seller and its Affiliates but excluding the Issuing
Entity) agree that any notices or requests to, or any other written
communications with, any of the Rating Agencies, or any of their respective

than the Seller and its Affiliates but excluding the Issuing Entity) further
agree to provide such notices, requests and communications or copies thereof,
as applicable, to the Seller at least one Business Day prior to the date when
such notices, requests

Affiliates but excluding the Issuing Entity) agrees that neither it nor any
party on its behalf shall engage in any oral communications with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, under the Basic Documents or in any way
relating to the Notes with any Rating Agency or any of their respective

property of which includes a pool of retail installment sale contracts and
retail installment loans [(including consumer installment loans)] secured by
new and used agricultural, construction and/or other equipment and sold to the
Trust by CNH Capital Receivables LLC.

 

(This
Trust Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of CNH
Capital Receivables LLC, CNH Capital America LLC, New Holland Credit Company,
LLC, CNH Global N.V. or CNH America LLC, or any of their respective affiliates,
except to the extent described below.)

 

THIS
CERTIFIES THAT CNH CAPITAL RECEIVABLES LLC is the registered owner of a [[           ] DOLLARS ($[       ])] nonassessable, fully-paid, fractional
undivided interest in CNH Equipment Trust 20XX-Y (the “Trust”) formed by CNH Capital Receivables
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Depositor”).

 

The
Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of [Month Day], 20XX
(the “Trust Agreement”) between the Depositor and [Wilmington Trust Company], as
trustee (the “Trustee”).  To the extent not otherwise defined herein,
the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the
Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement (the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”) dated as of
[Month Day], 20XX among the Trust, the Depositor and New Holland Credit
Company, LLC, as servicer (the “Servicer”),
as applicable.  This Trust Certificate is
one of the duly authorized Trust Certificates [designated as “Asset-Backed
Certificates”] (herein called the “Trust
Certificates”) issued under and subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the holder of this
Trust Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which
holder is bound.  The provisions and
conditions of the Trust Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference as

Asset Backed Notes,” “Floating Rate Class A-4b Asset Backed Notes,” and “[    ]% Class B Asset Backed Notes”.  [The][Each] holder of this Trust Certificate
acknowledges and agrees that its rights to receive distributions in respect of
this Trust Certificate are subordinated to the rights of the Noteholders as described
in the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture.

 

It
is the intent of the Depositor, Servicer and [the holder of this Trust
Certificate][Certificateholders] that, for purposes of federal income, State
and local income and franchise and any other income taxes measured in whole or
in part by income, until the Trust Certificates are held by a Person other than
the Depositor, the Trust be disregarded as an entity separate from the
Depositor.  At such time that the Trust
Certificates are held by more than one person, it is the intent of the
Depositor, Servicer and the Certificateholders that, for purposes of federal
income, State and local income and franchise and any other income taxes
measured in whole or in part by income, the Trust be treated as a partnership,
the assets of which are the assets held by the Trust, and the
Certificateholders (including the Depositor (and its transferees and assigns)
in its capacity as recipient of distributions from the Spread Account) will be
treated as partners in that partnership. 
The Depositor and the [holder of this Trust Certificate][other
Certificateholders], by acceptance of this Trust Certificate, agree to treat,
and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the Trust
Certificates as such for tax purposes.

 

[The][Each]
Certificateholder, by its acceptance of [a][this] Trust Certificate, covenants
and agrees that such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against
the Depositor or the Trust, or join in any institution against the Depositor or
the Trust, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal
or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating
to [the Trust Certificates][this Trust Certificate], the Notes, the Trust
Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

 

[The][Each]
Certificateholder, by its acceptance of [this][a] Trust Certificate, represents
and warrants in writing that: (a) it is acquiring [this][a] Trust Certificate
for its own account and is the sole beneficial owner of such Trust Certificate;
(b) the transfer is not being effected on or through (x) an “established
securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(a)(1) of the
Code, including without limitation, an over-the-counter market or an
interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell
quotations or (y) a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent
thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704(a)(2) of the Code and
any proposed, temporary or final Treasury regulations thereunder; and (c) such
transfer will not cause the Trust to be classified as a publicly traded
partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and such purchaser or
transferee will not take any action, including any subsequent disposition of
such Trust Certificate (or any beneficial interest therein), that would cause
the Trust to be treated as a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal
income tax purposes.

 

[This
Trust Certificate][The Certificates] may not be acquired by or for the account
of: (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)),
that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan described
in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, or (iii) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets
of any of the foregoing

“Benefit Plan”). By accepting and
holding this Certificate, the Certificateholder shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.

Trust Certificate does][The Trust Certificates do] not represent an obligation
of, or an interest in, the Depositor, the Servicer, CNH Capital America LLC,
New Holland Credit Company, LLC, CNH America LLC, CNH Global N.V., the Trustee
or any affiliates of any of them and no recourse may be had against such
parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated
herein or in the Trust Agreement or the Basic Documents.

 

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

 

This
Trust Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the state
of Delaware, without reference to its conflict of law provisions, and the
obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined
in accordance with such laws.
