INTRODUCTION

 
This is a general summary of the Retirement Plan for
Employees of BRE Properties, Inc., a Putnam prototype retirement plan that has been adopted by your Employer. The Plan is designed to allow you to save for your retirement on a tax-deferred basis by making a salary reduction agreement with your
Employer and to provide you with the opportunity to share in your Employer’s contributions to the Plan. 
 
This summary highlights the most important provisions of the Plan, but it is not the complete Plan. In case of any difference between this summary and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will control.
A copy of the complete Plan is available for inspection at your Employer’s office. 
 
PLAN TYPE 
 

	1.	 	What is a 401(k) Plan? 

 
A 401(k) Plan is a deferred compensation plan designed to allow you to save for your retirement on a tax-deferred basis by entering into a
salary reduction agreement with your Employer. 
 
All contributions under the Plan will be held in a Trust Fund. A separate Account will be established to record your share of the amount held in the Trust Fund. 
 
PLAN PARTICIPATION 
 

	2.	 	Are all employees eligible to participate in the Plan? 

 
All employees of the Employer are eligible to participate in the Plan except members of a collective
bargaining unit, leased employees and temporary employees. 
 

	3.	 	What are the requirements for participation in the Plan? 

 
You will begin to participate in the Plan after you have completed one 6-month Eligibility Period.

 
An Eligibility Period is a period of 6
consecutive months, starting on your first day of work, or any anniversary of that day, or the period of 6 consecutive months following your first day of work or any anniversary thereof. 
 
If you are an employee of an acquired business, the Eligibility Period for you will be the period described
above beginning on the date you began work with the acquired business. 
 

	4.	 	When will I become a Participant in the Plan? 

 
If you were a Participant in a Plan of the Employer on the day before the Effective Date, you automatically continue to participate in the
Plan. 
 
Otherwise, you will begin to participate
in the Plan on the first day of the month following the date you fulfill the requirements. 
 
If you are a member of an ineligible group of employees when you satisfy the eligibility requirements, you will become a Participant on the date when you change to an eligible group. 
 

-2- 

 

	5.	 	What happens if I leave my job and then I am re-employed by my Employer? 

 
If you were not a Participant in the Plan before you left your job, you must satisfy the eligibility
requirements described in Questions 2 and 3 before you can participate in the Plan after your re-employment. If you were a Participant in the Plan before you left your job, and some portion of your Employer Matching Account had become vested (see
Question 18), you will become a Participant again as soon as you become a member of an eligible group of employees of the Employer.  
 
If you were a Participant in the Plan before you left your job, but no portion of your Employer Matching Account had become vested
(see Question 18), you will become a Participant again when you become a member of an eligible group of employees of the Employer only if your time away from the Employer did not extend for five consecutive One-Year Eligibility Breaks. A
One-Year Eligibility Break is a period of 12 consecutive months, starting on your first day of work or any anniversary of that day, in which you are credited with not more than 500 Hours of Service. If you return to work with the Employer after you
have five consecutive One-Year Eligibility Breaks, you will be considered a new employee. 
 
PLAN CONTRIBUTIONS 
 

	6.	 	Am I required to contribute to the Plan? 

 
You are not required to contribute to the Plan, but you will receive Employer Matching Contributions under the Plan only if you
contribute. 
 

	7.	 	May I voluntarily contribute to the Plan? 

 
You may save for your retirement on a tax-deferred basis by requesting that your Employer make Elective Deferrals to the Plan on your
behalf through payroll deductions. The amount you choose to have contributed as an Elective Deferral reduces the amount of compensation on which you must pay federal income tax. 
 
You may only make Elective Deferrals to the Plan. You may not make voluntary after-tax contributions. Any
after-tax contributions you made in prior Plan Years will remain in the Plan until they are distributed or withdrawn. Your voluntary after-tax contributions will be accounted for separately from any employer contributions, and the earnings on these
contributions will not be taxed until they are distributed or withdrawn. 
 
If you are in a group of employees eligible to participate in the Plan, you may contribute to the Plan as a “rollover” contribution certain amounts distributed to you from another employer’s qualified
retirement plan. You do not have to satisfy the Plan’s age and service requirements before you make a rollover contribution. Amounts so contributed will be credited to a Rollover Account for your benefit. 
 

-3- 

 

	8.	 	How can I request that my Employer make Elective Deferrals to the Plan on my behalf? 

 
You can arrange to make Elective Deferrals to the Plan by
entering into a salary reduction agreement with your Employer. The amount you designate in your salary reduction agreement will be contributed by your Employer to the Plan as an Elective Deferral on your behalf. 
 
You may enter into a salary reduction agreement effective as
of the first business day of each month. 
 
In your salary reduction agreement, you can elect to reduce your Earnings by an amount up to 15% of your Earnings for the Plan Year. 
 
You may not separately elect to have separate Elective Deferrals taken out of cash bonuses you receive from your Employer. 
 
For purposes of determining the amount and allocation of
Elective Deferrals and Employer Matching Contributions under the Plan, your Earnings include the first $200,000 (for 2002) of Form W-2 compensation as defined in Section 2.8 of the Plan and any amounts you contribute to a 401(k) plan, Section 125
plan, Section 403(b) plan, SARSEP, Section 457 plan or Section 414(h)(2) plan. 
 
The $200,000 limit on Earnings will be adjusted periodically to reflect changes in the cost of living. For any short Plan Year, the $200,000 limit will be pro-rated based upon the number of months in
the short Plan Year. 
 
Compensation is based on
what you earn during the Plan Year. However, for your initial year of participation in the Plan, compensation is recognized from the date you enter the Plan. 
 

	9.	 	Can I change the amount of my Elective Deferrals to the Plan? 

 
Once you enter into a salary reduction agreement with your Employer, you can change the amount of Elective
Deferrals being made on your behalf by entering into a new salary reduction agreement effective as of any date listed in Question 8. You can stop Elective Deferrals altogether at any time by terminating your salary reduction agreement with your
Employer, effective as soon as administratively feasible. 
 

	10.	 	Are there legal limits on my Elective Deferrals?  

 
There are legal limits on the amount of Elective Deferrals that may be made to the Plan on your behalf.
First, the total amount of Elective Deferrals that can be made during any calendar year, to this Plan and any other 401(k) plan in which you participate, is $11,000 for 2002. These dollar amounts are adjusted periodically for inflation by the
IRS. 
 

-4- 

 
If you exceed
this limit in any calendar year, you can request that the excess amount be returned to you from this Plan. To do so, you must notify your Employer that you made excess Elective Deferrals during the calendar year, and specify the amount of excess
Elective Deferrals to be distributed from this Plan. Your Employer must receive your notice no later than March 15 following the end of the calendar year in which you contributed the excess amount. The amount of your excess Elective Deferrals
(adjusted for income or loss) will be returned to you by April 15. 
 
A second limitation applies only to certain highly compensated Participants. Highly compensated Participants are certain owners of the Employer’s business and Participants who earn over a certain dollar amount. The
maximum amount of Elective Deferrals that may be made on behalf of those Participants in any Plan Year depends on the amount of Elective Deferrals made for all other Participants. If the elective Deferrals for any highly compensated Participant
exceed this limit during any Plan Year, then the excess Elective Deferrals (adjusted for income or loss) will be returned to the highly compensated Participant by the last day of the following Plan Year. 
 
If you are or have ever been a Participant in another
Qualified Plan maintained by your Employer, certain limitations may apply to allocations under this Plan. If these limitations apply to you, your Employer will contact you. 
 

	11.	 	Aside from Elective Deferrals, will my Employer make other types of contributions to the Plan? 

 
Yes, your Employer may also make the following contributions
to the Plan: 
 

	 	a.	 	Employer Matching Contributions. 

 

	 	b.	 	Qualified Matching Contributions. 

 

	 	c.	 	Qualified Non-Elective Contributions. 

 

	12.	 	What are Employer Matching Contributions? 

 
Your Employer makes Employer Matching Contributions to the Plan on behalf of all Qualified Participants. 
 
The amount of Employer Matching Contributions for each
Qualified Participant for each Plan Year will be 75% of Elective Deferrals up to 4% of Earnings. 
 
To be a Qualified Participant eligible to receive Employer Matching Contributions for a Plan Year, an Employee must be credited with one
Hour of Service in the Plan Year. 
 
Forfeitures
of Employer Matching Contributions by Participants who leave employment will be applied toward the Employer Matching Contribution for remaining Participants. 
 

	13.	 	Are there legal limits on Matching Contributions? 

 
There are legal limits on the amount of Matching Contributions that can be made for certain highly-paid
Participants, based on the Matching Contributions made for all other Participants. If the Matching Contributions for any highly-paid Participant exceed the limit during any Plan Year, the excess amount (adjusted for income or loss) shall be
forfeited if forfeitable under the Plan, or if not forfeitable, distributed to the highly-paid Participant no later than the end of the following Plan Year. 
 

-5- 

 

	14.	 	What are Qualified Matching Contributions? 

 
Your Employer may make Qualified Matching Contributions to the Plan on behalf of all Qualified Participants who have made Elective
Deferrals to the Plan. 
 
The amount of Qualified
Matching Contributions, if any, for each eligible Qualified Participant for each Plan Year will be a variable amount, selected by the Employer. 
 

	15.	 	What are Qualified Non-Elective Contributions? 

 
Your Employer may make Qualified Non-Elective Contributions to the Plan on behalf of all Participants who are non-highly compensated
employees who made Elective Deferrals during the Plan Year in which the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are made. 
 
The amount of Qualified Non-Elective Contributions made by your Employer each Plan Year is an amount determined by your Employer each
year, to be shared in proportion to the earnings by Participants on whose behalf the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are made. 
 

	16.	 	Am I entitled to any minimum contribution? 

 
For any Plan Year when the Plan is a “top heavy” plan, certain Participants (called non-Key Employees) who are employed on the
last day of the Plan Year must receive a minimum contribution. The minimum contribution for these Participants is three percent of their Earnings (or the highest percentage of Earnings that is allocated to any Key Employee, if that is less than
three percent). A plan is “top-heavy” if more than 60% of the assets in its Trust Fund are held in the Accounts of certain owners or officers of the Employer. 
 

	17.	 	Who is responsible for accounting to me for my benefits in the Plan? 

 
The Plan Administrator is required to account for each Participant’s interest in the Plan. When you
become a Participant, a separate Account will be set up for you on the records of the Plan, showing the different types of contributions to the Plan allocated to your Account, such as: 
 

	 	a.	 	Elective Deferrals; 

 

	 	b.	 	Employer Matching Contributions; 

 

	 	c.	 	Qualified Matching Contributions; 

 

	 	d.	 	Qualified Non-Elective Contributions; and 

 

	 	e.	 	Rollover Contributions. 

 
Your Employer will provide you with a periodic statement of your Account in the Plan. 
 

-6- 

 

	18.	 	Will I receive all the funds in my Account when I leave employment? 

 
You will receive the funds in your Elective Deferral Account and Rollover Account when you reach Normal
Retirement Age (which is age 65), or when you die or become disabled, or when your employment terminates for any other reason. You are always 100% vested in your Elective Deferral and Rollover Accounts. 
 
You will receive only that portion of your Employer Matching
Account that has become vested under the vesting schedule below. You will have a 100% vested interest in your Account when you reach Normal Retirement Age (age 65), or when you die or become disabled. If you leave your job with the Employer before
one of these events occurs, you will be vested in your Employer Matching Account in accordance with the following schedule: 
 

	 Employer Matching Account
	  	 	 	  	 	 	  	 	 	  	 	 	  	 	 
	
	 Five-Year Graded Schedule:

	  	 5
	  

 

	19.	 	Can I lose all or part of my Account? 

 
Upon termination of employment, you can lose only the portion of your Account that is not vested. Any part of your Employer
Matching Account in which you are not vested will be forfeited, and lost to you as a benefit, at the end of the Plan Year in which you incur five consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, unless you take a distribution of your vested balance before
the five-year break, in which case the nonvested portion is considered forfeited in the year of distribution. If you return to work with the Employer before you have five consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, you will not forfeit any portion of
your Account. (Exception: If the vested portion of your Account was distributed to you upon your termination of employment, you must repay the distributed amount back to the Plan in order to reclaim the non-vested portion when you return to
employment.) 
 
Forfeited amounts will be used to
reduce other contributions required of the Employer. 
 
You can lose only the portion of your Account that is not vested. You will always be 100% vested in any amounts in the following Accounts: 
 

	 	a.	 	Elective Deferral Account; 

 

	 	b.	 	Rollover Account; 

 

	 	c.	 	Qualified Matching Contribution Account; and 

 

	 	d.	 	Qualified Non-Elective Contribution Account. 

 
In addition, if you made after-tax contributions to a plan your Employer formerly maintained, those contributions and their earnings will
be 100% vested at all times and will be held in a separate Account under this Plan.

DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS

 

	20.	 	How do I become entitled to receive a distribution from the Plan? 

 
You (or your beneficiary) will be entitled to receive a distribution of your vested Account in the Plan upon
termination of your employment; your retirement, death or disability; termination of the Plan, without the establishment of a successor plan; the Employer’s sale to an unrelated corporation of the business in which you are employed; or upon
your request after you reach age 59 1/2. 
 

	21.	 	When will my benefit distribution occur? 

 
If you terminate employment, retire or become disabled, your distribution will begin no later than 60 days after the end of the Plan Year
in which you become entitled to a distribution. 
 
If you retire before you reach 70 1/2 and you elect to postpone your distribution, you must begin to receive your distribution no later than the April 1 following the year you reach age 70 1/2. 
 
You will be eligible for a distribution on account of
disability if you have terminated employment with the Employer, and you are unable to engage in substantial gainful activity on account of a mental or physical impairment that can be expected to last for at least 12 months or to result in your
death. 
 
If you continue to be employed after you
reach Normal Retirement Age, you will continue to be eligible to make Elective Deferrals and to continue to receive any Employer Matching Contributions. 
 
If you are still employed after age 70 1/2, you will not be required to receive a distribution from the Plan until the April 1 following
the year you retire. As described in “Withdrawals and Loans,” you may make a voluntary withdrawal from your vested Account before you retire. 
 
However, if you are a 5% or greater owner of the Employer’s business, your distribution must begin no later than the April 1
following the year you reach age 70 1/2, regardless of when you retire. 
 

	22.	 	May I postpone distribution of my benefits? 

 
The Plan will automatically distribute in a lump sum any vested Account balance that does not exceed $5,000, as soon as administratively
feasible and no later than 60 days after the end of Plan Year in which you terminate employment. If your vested Account balance is more than this dollar amount, you may elect to postpone distribution of your benefits until you are required to begin
receiving distributions as described above. 
 

-8- 

 

	23.	 	May I assign or pledge my interest in the Plan? 

 
No. However, your interest in the Plan may be subject to claims under a “qualified domestic relations
order” issued by a court, granting to your spouse, former spouse, children or other dependents a right to receive all or part of your Account as support, alimony, or property settlement. 
 

	24.	 	Who is entitled to receive my Account if I die before it is distributed? 

 
If you are married at the time of your death, your Account will be distributed to your surviving spouse
unless your spouse has previously consented in writing, before a Plan representative or notary public, to payment of the death benefit to another beneficiary you have named. If you are unmarried at the time of your death, the death benefit
will be distributed to your named beneficiary. 
 
You may name a beneficiary only by completing a form provided to you for this purpose by the Employer, and returning the completed form to the Employer. If you wish to change the beneficiary you have named, you must complete a
second form and return it to the Employer. The latest form you have completed and returned to the Employer before your death will control. 
 
If you do not have a spouse or a named beneficiary living at the time of your death, your death benefit will be distributed to the
personal representative (executor or administrator) of your estate. 
 

	25.	 	How will my benefits be distributed? 

 
You may elect any of the following forms of payment: 
 

	 	a.	 	a single cash payment (If your Account is invested in Employer Stock, a lump sum payment may be made in cash or in Employer Stock or in a combination of
both); or 

 

	 	b.	 	a series of cash payments, or Employer Stock, in substantially equal installments; or 

 

	 	c.	 	any other optional form of distribution available under the Plan of the Employer in effect prior to the Effective Date. 

 
Exception:    If the value
of the vested portion of your Account is not more than $5,000, your benefits will be distributed in a single payment in cash. 
 

-9- 

 
If you choose
a form other than a single payment, the period over which payments are made cannot be longer than one of the following: 
 

	 	i.	 	your lifetime, or 

 

	 	ii.	 	the lifetime of you and your designated beneficiary, or 

 

	 	iii.	 	a number of years no longer than your life expectancy, or the joint life expectancy of you or your designated beneficiary. 

 
If you die after payments begin but before they are finished,
payments will continue to your beneficiary at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution you selected. 
 
Spousal Benefit Rules 
 
If this Plan is an amendment to a prior plan that provided a life annuity as the normal or automatic form of benefit, the Spousal Benefit
Rules described in the following paragraphs apply to every married Participant. 
 
The Spousal Benefit Rules provide that: 
 

	 	a.	 	If you are married when distributions begin, your Account will be distributed in the form of a joint and survivor annuity for you and your spouse, unless you elect
otherwise and your spouse consents to your election in writing before a Plan representative or a notary public. The joint and survivor annuity contract will provide monthly payments to you during your lifetime, and if you die before your
spouse, monthly payments equal to 50% of the payments made during your life will continue to your surviving spouse until his or her death. The amount of the annuity payments will depend on the value of the annuity that can be purchased with your
Account at the time distribution begins. 

 

	 	b.	 	If you are unmarried, your Account will be distributed in the form of a life annuity unless you elect otherwise in writing. The life annuity will provide for monthly
payments to you during your lifetime and all payments will end at your death. The amount of the annuity payments will depend upon the value of the annuity that can be purchased with your Account at the time distribution begins.

 
If the Spousal Benefit Rules do
not apply to you, then you cannot elect any annuity payable for a person’s lifetime, but you can elect an annuity for a specified number of years. 
 

	26.	 	How will my benefits be taxed?  

 
Income tax withholding rules apply to distributions from the Plan. If your Account distributions will continue over a period of at least
10 years in substantially equal installments, you may elect whether to have federal income tax withheld. If your Account will be distributed in any other form—such as a single payment—then the Plan must withhold federal income tax equal to
20% of the distribution unless you arrange for a direct transfer to an individual retirement account (IRA) or another employer’s qualified retirement plan. You will receive a special tax notice explaining the choices available to you about
withholding before any payment is made to you from the Plan. 
 

-10- 

 
INVESTMENT OF PLAN ASSETS

 

	27.	 	How are contributions to the Plan invested? 

 
Contributions to the Plan are invested by the Trustee in shares of Putnam mutual funds or other investments available under the Plan as
chosen by your Employer. The Plan Administrator will provide you with current copies of the prospectus describing each investment option on request to the Plan Administrator. 
 
Investments for your Accounts will be selected by you and may be changed daily. Please see your Plan
Administrator for an explanation of the procedures you must follow to direct the investment of your Account. 
 
Employer stock will be voted in accordance with the Participant’s instructions. 
 
Employer Stock will be tendered in accordance with the
Participant’s instructions. 
 
WITHDRAWALS AND LOANS

 

	28.	 	Is any portion of my Account available to me while I am still working for the Employer? 

 
If you contributed a Rollover Contribution to the Plan, you
may withdraw all or part of such Rollover Contribution for any reason upon request, even if you are still employed by the Employer. 
 
If you have made after-tax contributions to the Plan prior to the Plan Year in which your Employer adopted this Plan, you may withdraw all
or part of them on the same terms that applied under your Employer’s prior plan. 
 
You may withdraw from your Elective Deferral Account (adjusted for income or loss through December 31, 1988), Rollover Account, and Employer Matching Contribution Account if you demonstrate to the Plan
Administrator that you are experiencing financial need. Hardship distributions can be made only for uninsured medical expenses, purchase of your principal residence, payment of the next 12 months of post-secondary education for you or a member of
your immediate family, or to prevent the loss of your residence. You must stop making Elective Deferrals for 12 months after a hardship distribution, and your yearly dollar limit for Elective Deferrals in the calendar year you resume participation
will be reduced by the amount of Elective Deferrals you made in the calendar year of your hardship distribution. 
 
If you have reached age 59 1/2, you may withdraw all or part of the vested portion of your Account.

	29.	 	Are loans available to Participants under the Plan? 

 
You may borrow from your Account, subject to the Loan Program established by your Employer and the following
requirements: 
 
The total amount of all loans may
not exceed the lesser of: 
 

	 	a.	 	one-half of your vested Account balance; or 

 

	 	b.	 	$50,000 (reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance for all loans during the one-year period ending on the day before the date this loan becomes effective).

 
This limit applies to all loans
from the Plan and other tax qualified retirement plans of the Employer and considers all loans outstanding from all plans. 
 
A loan must be repaid over a period of no more than five years, unless it is used to acquire your principal residence, in which case the
repayment period may exceed five years. You must make payments of principal and interest no less frequently than quarterly over the term of your loan. Payment will be made through payroll deduction. Interest will be charged at a rate established by
the Employer, on a nondiscriminatory basis, taking into consideration the interest rates then being charged on similar loans by independent commercial lenders (for example, savings and loan companies in your locality). You will be required to sign a
promissory note pledging up to half of the value of your vested Plan Account as collateral for the loan. 
 
Your loan will be accounted for separately. After the loan proceeds are paid to you, the value of your Account will include your
obligation to repay the loan (usually represented by the promissory note or credit agreement that you signed (“Note”)). Repayments of principal and interest will be deposited in your Account and applied against this Note reducing your
outstanding loan balance. If your employment with the Employer ends while a loan is outstanding, the remaining unpaid balance of the loan is offset against the remaining value of the Note. The Note will be canceled and you will receive any remaining
cash held in the Account (to the extent vested). You may be subject to income taxes and a penalty tax on the distribution from your Account, including the value of any principal and interest on your Plan loan that you have not repaid. You may avoid
income taxes by repaying the full amount of your loan and then making a direct rollover of your Account balance to an IRA or another employer’s plan. Contact your Plan Administrator for more information. 
 
CLAIMS PROCEDURES 
 

	30.	 	How may I file a claim for benefits? 

 
You or your beneficiary may notify the Plan Administrator in writing of a claim for benefits under the Plan. If your claim is denied, the
Plan Administrator will provide you with written notice specifying the reason for denial and pointing out the Plan provisions on which the denial is based, and explaining what additional evidence (if any) you should submit to prove that you are
entitled to the benefit claimed. You must be given a reasonable opportunity for a full and fair review of your claim, and you are entitled to examine Plan documents and records and to submit issues and comments in support of your claim in writing or
orally. The Plan Administrator’s decision on review of your denied claim will be made and communicated in writing no later than 120 days after receipt of your request for review.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

 

	31.	 	May changes be made to the Plan? 

 
Although it intends to continue the Plan indefinitely, your Employer specifically reserves the right to amend or to terminate the Plan,
but no amendment to the Plan may take away any amount already credited to your Account. If the Plan is terminated, every Participant’s Account will become fully vested and will be distributed from the Trust in one of the forms described in
Question 25. 
 

	32.	 	Who has the authority to make decisions in connection with the Plan? 

 
The Plan Administrator has discretionary authority to interpret the written terms of the Plan and to apply
them to specific situations (for example, to determine whether a person has completed the requirements for Plan participation). 
 

	33.	 	Are there limitations on my rights under the Plan? 

 
The Plan does not give any person the right to remain as an employee of the Employer. It creates only those
rights specifically provided in the Plan. 
 
Section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 limits the amount of benefits and contributions that may be made to qualified retirement plans for a person in a given year. If this limit ever affects your Account in the Plan, the
Employer will notify you. 
 

	34.	 	Are my benefits guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC)? 

 
Benefits under the Plan are not insured by the Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation, because the Plan is a “defined contribution” plan. The retirement benefit you receive will depend on how long you work for the Employer, the amount you and the Employer contribute, the amount of your earnings
and the investment performance of your Account. 
 

	35.	 	What legal rights do I have as a Participant in the Plan? 

 
As a Participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all Plan Participants shall be entitled to: 
 
Receive Information About Your Plan and Benefits 
 

	 	a.	 	Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrator’s office and at other specified locations, such as worksites and union halls, all documents governing the
Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements, and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Pension and
Welfare Benefits Administration. 

 

-13- 

 

	 	b.	 	Obtain, upon written request to the Plan Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and collective
bargaining agreements, and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated Summary Plan Description. The Plan Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. 

 

	 	c.	 	Receive a summary of the Plan’s annual financial report. The Plan Administrator is required by law to furnish each Participant with a copy of this Summary
Annual Report. 

 

	 	d.	 	Obtain a statement telling you whether you have a right to receive a pension at Normal Retirement Age and if so, what your benefits would be at Normal Retirement Age
if you stop working under the Plan now. If you do not have a right to a pension, the statement will tell you how many more years you have to work to get a right to a pension. This statement must be requested in writing and is not required to be
given more than once every 12 months. The Plan must provide the statement free of charge. 

 
Prudent Actions By Plan Fiduciaries 
 
In addition to creating rights for Plan Participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the
Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called “fiduciaries” of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan Participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your Employer, your union, or any other
person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a pension benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. 
 
Enforce Your Rights 
 
If your claim for a pension benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain
copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. 
 
Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance— 
 

	 	•	 	If you request a copy of the Plan documents or the latest annual report from the Plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a Federal court.
In such a case, the court may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the Plan Administrator.

 

	 	•	 	If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or Federal court. 

 

-14- 

 

	 	•	 	If you disagree with the Plan’s decision or lack thereof concerning the qualified status of a domestic relations order or a medical child support order, you may
file suit in Federal court. 

 

	 	•	 	If it should happen that Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from
the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the
court may order you to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. 

 
Assistance With Your Questions 
 
If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Plan Administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or
about your rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Plan Administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone
directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also obtain certain publications about your rights
and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration.

executed by the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of one of its
authorized signatories, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and

         On the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall have received: (i) an

         SECTION 3.01      COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS ON LOANS; TRUST ACCOUNTS.

         The Servicer shall establish and maintain each of the Trust Accounts
specified in Section 7.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture
Trustee shall ensure that each of the Trust Accounts is established and
maintained as an Eligible Deposit Account with a Qualified Institution. If any
institution with which any of the Trust Accounts established pursuant to
subsection 7.01(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement are established ceases to
be a Qualified Institution, the Servicer, or if the Servicer fails to do so, the
Indenture Trustee (as the

                                       10

<PAGE>

case may be) shall within ten (10) Business Days establish a replacement account
at a Qualified Institution after notice of such event. The Indenture Trustee
shall make all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes, subject to
Section 3.03 and as provided in Section 3.05 herein from moneys on deposit in
the Note Distribution Account.

         SECTION 3.02      MAINTENANCE OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

         The Issuer will maintain with the Indenture Trustee an office or agency
where, subject to satisfaction of conditions set forth herein, Notes may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and
demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be
served. The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Indenture Trustee to serve as
its agent for the foregoing purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice
to the Indenture Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of
any such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any
such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the
address thereof, such surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee, and the Issuer hereby
appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such surrenders,
notices and demands.

         SECTION 3.03      MONEY FOR PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; PAYING AGENT.

         As provided in Section 3.01, all payments of amounts due and payable
with respect to any Notes or Swaps that are to be made from amounts withdrawn
from the Note Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.01 shall be made on
behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by another Paying Agent, and no
amounts so withdrawn from the Note Distribution Account for payments of Notes or
any Swaps shall be paid over to the Issuer except as provided in this Section
3.03.

         The Issuer 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 3.03, that such Paying Agent will:

                  (i)      hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts
         due with respect to the Notes or the Swaps 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 notice of any default by
         the Issuer in the making of any payment required to be made with
         respect to the Notes or the Swaps;

                  (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 Paying Agent and forthwith pay
         to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment
         of Notes or the Swaps if at any time it ceases to meet the standards
         required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment;
         and

                                       11

<PAGE>

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

         The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the 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.

         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 (2)
years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such
trust and be paid to the Issuer on an Issuer Order; and the Holder of such Note
shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for
payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer),
and all liability of the 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 Issuer cause to be published once, in
an Authorized Newspaper, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that,
after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days
from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then
remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall also adopt
and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable
means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited to, 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 moneys due and
payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Indenture
Trustee or of any Paying Agent, at the last address of record for each such
Holder).

         SECTION 3.04      EXISTENCE.

         The Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and
franchises as a business trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless
it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the
laws of any other state or of the United States, in which case the Issuer will
keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such
other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do
business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be
necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the
Notes, the Swaps, the other Transaction Documents, the Indenture Collateral and
each other instrument or agreement included in the Indenture Collateral.

         SECTION 3.05      PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.

         The Issuer will duly and punctually pay (i) the principal of and
interest on the Notes in accordance with the terms of such Notes, this Indenture
and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and (ii) all amounts payable under the
Swaps in accordance with the terms thereof. The Issuer

                                       12

<PAGE>

will cause to be distributed all amounts on deposit in the Note Distribution
Account on a Remittance Date deposited therein pursuant to the Sale and
Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the Notes, to the applicable Noteholders,
and for the benefit of the Swaps, to the applicable Swap Counterparties. 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 Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this
Indenture.

         SECTION 3.06      PROTECTION OF INDENTURE COLLATERAL.

         (a)      The Issuer intends the security interest Granted pursuant to
this Indenture in favor of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders
and the Swap Counterparties to be prior to all other liens in respect of the
Indenture Collateral, and the Issuer shall take or shall cause the Servicer to
take all actions necessary to obtain and maintain, for the benefit of the
Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties, a
first lien on and a first priority, perfected security interest in the Indenture
Collateral. In connection therewith, pursuant to Section 2.06 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall cause to be delivered into the possession
of the Indenture Trustee as pledgee hereunder, indorsed in blank, any
"instruments" (within the meaning of the UCC), not constituting part of chattel
paper, evidencing any Loan which is part of the Indenture Collateral and all
other portions of the Loan Files. The Indenture Trustee acknowledges and agrees
that (i) it holds the Loan Assets delivered to it under the Sale Agreement for
the benefit of the Trust Depositor, (ii) it holds the Loan Assets delivered to
it under the Sale and Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the Trust, and
(iii) it holds the Indenture Collateral delivered to it pursuant to this
Indenture for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties. The
Indenture Trustee agrees to maintain continuous possession of such delivered
instruments and the Loan Files as pledgee hereunder until this Indenture shall
have terminated in accordance with its terms or until, pursuant to the terms
hereof or of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee is
otherwise authorized to release such instrument from the Indenture Collateral.
The Servicer, on behalf of the Issuer, will from time to time prepare (or shall
cause to be prepared), execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments
hereto and all such financing statements, continuation statements, instruments
of further assurance and other instruments, and will take such other action
necessary or advisable to:

                  (i)      maintain or preserve the lien and security interest
         (and the priority thereof) of this Indenture or carry out more
         effectively the purposes hereof;

                  (ii)     perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of
         any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture;

                  (iii)    enforce any of the Loans transferred to the Issuer as
         and to the extent commercially reasonable; or

                  (iv)     preserve and defend title to the Indenture Collateral
         and the rights of the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Swap
         Counterparties in such Indenture Collateral against the claims of all
         persons and parties.

                                       13

<PAGE>

         (b)      Except as otherwise provided in or permitted by the Sale and
Servicing Agreement or this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not remove
any portion of the Indenture Collateral that consists of money or is evidenced
by an instrument, certificate or other writing from the jurisdiction in which it
was held at the date of the most recent Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to
Section 3.07 (or from the jurisdiction in which it was held as described in the
Opinion of Counsel delivered at the Closing Date pursuant to subsection 3.07(a),
if no Opinion of Counsel has yet been delivered pursuant to subsection 3.07(b))
unless the Indenture Trustee shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the lien and security interest created by this Indenture with
respect to such property will continue to be maintained after giving effect to
such action or actions.

         The Issuer hereby designates the Indenture Trustee its agent and
attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement, continuation statement or
other instrument required to be executed pursuant to this Section 3.06.

         SECTION 3.07      OPINIONS AS TO INDENTURE COLLATERAL.

         (a)      On or before the Closing Date, the Issuer shall furnish to the
Indenture Trustee and Swap Counterparties an Opinion of Counsel either stating
that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to
the delivery of the Underlying Notes 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 of 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 December 31 in each calendar year, beginning in
2002, the Servicer on behalf of the Issuer will furnish to the Indenture Trustee
and Swap Counterparties an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the Issuer
either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken
with respect to any other requisite documents and with respect to the execution
and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements as is
necessary to maintain the perfection of 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 maintain the perfection
of such lien and security interest. Such Opinion of Counsel shall also describe
any other requisite documents and the execution and filing of any financing
statements and continuation statements that will, in the opinion of such
counsel, be required to maintain the lien and security interest of this
Indenture until December 31 in the following calendar year.

         SECTION 3.08      [RESERVED].

         SECTION 3.09      PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS; SALE AND SERVICING
                 AGREEMENT.

         (a)      The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its
obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the Transaction
Documents and in the instruments and agreements included in the Indenture
Collateral.

         (b)      The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in
performing its duties under this Indenture, the Transaction Documents and in the
instruments and agreements included

                                       14

<PAGE>

in the Indenture Collateral, and any performance of such duties by a Person
identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer
shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. Initially, the Issuer has
contracted with the Servicer to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under
this Indenture, the Transaction Documents and in the instruments and agreements
included in the Indenture Collateral.

         (c)      The Issuer will not take any action or permit any action to be
taken by others which would release any Person from any of such Person's
covenants or obligations under any of the documents relating to the Loans or
under any instrument included in the Indenture Collateral, or which would result
in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or
impair the validity or effectiveness of, any of the documents relating to the
Loans or any such instrument, except such actions as the Servicer is expressly
permitted to take in the Transaction Documents.

         (d)      If the Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of a
Servicer Default, the Issuer shall promptly notify in writing the Indenture
Trustee, each Swap Counterparty and the Rating Agencies thereof, and shall
specify in such notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking in respect of
such Servicer Default. If such Servicer Default arises from the failure of the
Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and
Servicing Agreement with respect to the Loans, the Issuer may remedy such
failure. So long as any such Servicer Default shall be continuing, the Indenture
Trustee may exercise its remedies set forth in Section 8.02 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement. Unless granted or permitted by the Holders of the Notes and
the Swap Counterparties to the extent provided above, the Issuer may not waive
any such Servicer Default or terminate the rights and powers of the Servicer
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         SECTION 3.10      NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

         So long as any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall not:

                  (i)      except as expressly permitted by this Indenture or
         any other Transaction Document, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise
         dispose of the Indenture Collateral, 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 or Swap Counterparty by reason of the payment of the taxes
         levied or assessed upon any part of the Indenture Collateral;

                  (iii)    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 or Swaps under this Indenture except as may be
         expressly permitted hereby, permit any lien, charge, excise, claim,
         security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien
         of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document) to be created on
         or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden the Indenture Collateral
         or

                                       15

<PAGE>

         any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof or
         permit the lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid first
         priority security interest in the Indenture Collateral; or

                  (iv)     except as contemplated in the Transaction Documents,
         dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part.

         SECTION 3.11      ANNUAL STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE.

         The Issuer will deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Swap
Counterparties and the Rating Agencies, within ninety (90) days after the end of
each calendar year (commencing with the calendar year ending 2002), an Officer's
Certificate stating, as to the Person signing such Officer's Certificate, that:

                  (i)      a review of the activities of the Issuer during such
         year and of its performance under this Indenture has been made under

         review, the Issuer has complied with all conditions and covenants under
         this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been such a
         default in its compliance with any such condition or covenant,
         specifying each such default known to such Person and the nature and
         status thereof.

         SECTION 3.12      RECORDING OF ASSIGNMENTS.

         The Issuer shall submit or cause to be submitted for recording all
Assignments of Mortgages within the time period set forth in the Sale and
Servicing Agreement.

         SECTION 3.13      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONCERNING THE LOANS.

         The Issuer has pledged to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties all of its rights under the Sale
Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture Trustee has the
benefit of the representations and warranties made by the Originator and the
Trust Depositor in such documents concerning the Loans transferred into the Loan
Assets and the right to enforce any remedy against the Originator and the Trust
Depositor provided in the Sale Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
to the same extent as though such representations and warranties were made
directly to the Indenture Trustee.

         SECTION 3.14      INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S REVIEW OF LOAN FILES.

         The Indenture Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Noteholders and
the Swap Counterparties, to review the Loan Files as provided in Section 2.08 of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         SECTION 3.15      INDENTURE COLLATERAL; RELATED DOCUMENTS.

         (a)      When instructed to do so by the Issuer or the Servicer, the
Indenture Trustee 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 which are not inconsistent with the provisions of
this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement. No party relying upon an
instrument executed by the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Article III
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
moneys.

         (b)      In order to facilitate the servicing of the Loans, the
Indenture Trustee authorizes the Servicer in the name and on behalf of the

Costs, release all of the Indenture Collateral to the Issuer (other than any
cash held for the payment of the Notes or the Swaps pursuant to Section 3.03 or
4.06), subject, however, to the rights of the Indenture Trustee under Section
6.07.

         SECTION 3.16      AMENDMENTS TO SALE AND SERVICING AGREEMENT.

         The Indenture Trustee may enter into any amendment or supplement to the

         by a Swap;

                  (ii)     have a schedule of periodic payment periods which

                  (iii)    on the Closing Date, have an amortizing notional
         amount such that the Aggregate Notional Amount during any current or

         Rate Loans for the corresponding Due Period; and (B) the product of
         100% and the Outstanding Loan Balance of the Floating Prime Rate Loans
         for the corresponding Due Period, in each case, based on the

         the same date with respect to a Swap Transaction will be netted so that
         only the net difference between such payments will be paid, with any
         net periodic payments to be paid into the Principal and Interest
         Account (if payable by the Swap Counterparty) or from the Principal and
         Interest Account (if payable by the Issuer) and distributed pursuant to

order to meet the Issuer's obligations under Section 3.32 hereof or except as
otherwise contemplated in this Section 3.32 and in subsection 5.02(g) of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement. Nothing herein shall have the effect of releasing
the Issuer from any of its obligations under any Swap or any Swap Transaction,
nor be construed as requiring the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any
Noteholder or any Swap Counterparty for the performance by the Issuer of any
such obligations.

         (c)      The Issuer hereby agrees to maintain a register of outstanding
Swaps. Such register shall contain the name of each Swap Counterparty as well as
the address of each Swap Counterparty. The Issuer shall provide such names and
addresses to the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and each Rating Agency
on a current basis.

         (d)      The Indenture Trustee shall, upon notice from the Issuer,
establish a single, segregated trust account which shall be designated as the
Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account, which shall be held in trust in the name
of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Swap
Counterparties and over which the Trustee shall have the exclusive control and
the sole right of withdrawal. The Trustee shall deposit all collateral received
from a Swap Counterparty under a Swap in the Hedge Counterparty Collateral
Account. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit
of, the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall be held in trust by the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the

                                       25

<PAGE>

Swap Counterparties. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds
on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Hedge Counterparty Collateral
Account shall be upon Issuer Order (i) for application to obligations of a Swap
Counterparty to the Issuer under Swap if such Swap becomes subject to early
termination or (ii) to return collateral to such Swap Counterparty when and as
required by such Swap. The Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon such
Issuer Order. The Hedge Counterparty Collateral Account shall remain at all
times with the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee or a financial
institution acceptable to the Swap Counterparties having a long-term debt rating
at least equal to "BBB+" or its equivalent.

         SECTION 3.33      PAYMENTS FROM OBLIGOR LOCK-BOXES AND OBLIGOR LOCK-BOX
                  ACCOUNTS.

         The Issuer agrees not to make, or permit to be made, any change, in the
direction of, or instructions with respect to, any payments to be made by an
Obligor Lock-Box Bank from any Obligor Lock-Box or any Obligor Lock-Box Account
in any manner that would diminish, impair, delay or otherwise adversely effect
the timing or receipt of such payments by the Lock-Box Bank or to change the
name in which an Obligor Lock-Box or Obligor Lock-Box Account is maintained
without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee and with the consent
of the Majority Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties. The Issuer further
agrees to provide the Indenture Trustee promptly, but in no case later than one
(1) Business Day after the Issuer's receipt, any notice it receives that an
Obligor is changing the direction of or instructions with respect to any
payments from any Obligor Lock-Box or any Obligor Lock-Box Account or the name
in which an Obligor Lock-Box or Obligor Lock-Box Account is maintained.

                                   ARTICLE IV

               THE NOTES; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

         SECTION 4.01      THE NOTES.

         Certain of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes shall be registered
initially in the name of Cede & Co. Beneficial Owners will hold interests in the
Class A Notes and the Class B Notes through the book-entry facilities of the
Depository in minimum denominations of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. Subject to subsections 4.02(b), (p), (q) and (r),
certain of the Class A Notes and Class B Notes and all of the Class C Notes and
the Class D Notes shall be issued in such names and denominations as may be set
forth on an Issuer Order delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

         The Notes shall, on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer
by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner
Trustee, authenticated by the Note Registrar and delivered by the Indenture
Trustee to or upon the order of the Issuer.

         SECTION 4.02      REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF NOTES.

         (a)      The Indenture Trustee shall cause to be kept a Note Register
(the "Note Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and the
registration of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The
Indenture Trustee shall be "Note Registrar" for the purpose of registering Notes

                                       26

<PAGE>

and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Note Register shall contain the
name, remittance instructions, Class of each Noteholder, as well as the Series
and the number in the Series.

         (b)      Each Class of Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations
of $1,000,000 initial principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof, except that one Note of each Class may be in a different
denomination so that the sum of the denominations of all outstanding Notes of
such Class shall equal the applicable Initial Class A Principal Balance, the
Initial Class B Principal Balance, the Initial Class C Principal Balance and the
Initial Class D Principal Balance, respectively. On the Closing Date, the
Indenture Trustee will execute and authenticate (i) one or more Global Notes
and/or (ii) Individual Notes all in an aggregate principal amount that shall
equal the applicable Initial Class A Principal Balance, the applicable Initial
Class B Principal Balance, the applicable Initial Class C Principal Balance and
the applicable Initial Class D Principal Balance.

         At the option of the Class C Noteholders on and after the Class C
Interest Commencement Date, the Class C Note issued in the form of an Individual
Note may be exchanged for, and the Indenture Trustee will execute and
authenticate, (i) one or more Global Notes and/or (ii) Individual Notes all in
an aggregate principal amount that shall equal the Class C Principal Balance on
such date.

         The Global Notes (i) shall be delivered by the Issuer to the Depository
or, pursuant to the Depository's instructions, shall be delivered by the Issuer
on behalf of the Depository to and deposited with the DTC Custodian, and in each
case shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. and (ii) with respect to the
Rule 144A Global Notes, shall bear a legend substantially to the following
effect:

                  "Unless this Note is presented by an authorized representative
                  of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation
                  ("DTC"), to the Note Registrar or its agent for registration
                  of transfer, exchange or payment, and any Note issued is
                  registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as
                  is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any
                  payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is
                  requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY
                  TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY
                  OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner
                  hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein."

         The Global Notes may be deposited with such other Depository as the
Issuer may from time to time designate, and shall bear such legend as may be
appropriate; provided, that, such successor Depository maintains a book-entry
system that qualifies to be treated as "registered form" under Section 163(f)(3)
of the Code.

         The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee are hereby authorized to execute
and deliver a Letter of Representations with the Depository relating to the
Notes.

         (c)      With respect to Notes registered in the Note Register in the
name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, the Issuer, the Servicer, the
Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) and the Indenture Trustee
shall have no responsibility or obligation to Direct

                                       27

<PAGE>

or Indirect Participants or Beneficial Owners for which the Depository holds
Notes from time to time as a Depository. Without limiting the immediately
preceding sentence, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, (as such and in
its individual capacity), and the Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility
or obligation with respect to (a) the accuracy of the records of the Depository,
Cede & Co., or any Direct or Indirect Participant with respect to the ownership
interest in the Notes, (b) the delivery to any Direct or Indirect Participant or
any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a Note, (c) the payment to
any Direct or Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered
Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register, of any amount with respect to
any distribution of principal or interest on the Notes or (d) the making of
book-entry transfers among Participants of the Depository with respect to Notes
registered in the Note Register in the name of the nominee of the Depository. No
Person other than a registered Holder of a Note as shown in the Note Register
shall receive a Note evidencing such Note.

         (d)      Upon delivery by the Depository to the Indenture Trustee of
written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a
new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with
respect to the payment of distributions by the mailing of checks or drafts to
the registered Holders of Notes appearing as registered Owners in the Note
Register on a Record Date, the name "Cede & Co." in this Indenture shall refer
to such new nominee of the Depository.

         (e)      In the event that (i) the Depository or the Servicer advises
the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or
able to discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with
respect to the Global Notes and the Servicer is unable to locate a qualified
successor or (ii) the Servicer at its sole option elects to terminate the
book-entry system through the Depository, the Global Notes shall no longer be
restricted to being registered in the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co.
(or a successor nominee) as nominee of the Depository. At that time, the
Servicer may determine that the Global Notes shall be registered in the name of
and deposited with a successor depository operating a global book-entry system,
as may be acceptable to the Servicer, or such depository's agent or designee
but, if the Servicer does not select such alternative global book-entry system,
then upon surrender to the Note Registrar of the Global Notes by the Depository,
accompanied by the registration instructions from the Depository for
registration, the Indenture Trustee shall at the Servicer's expense authenticate
Individual Notes. Neither the Servicer nor the Indenture Trustee shall be liable
for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and
shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of
Individual Notes, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Servicer, any
Paying Agent and the Issuer shall recognize the Holders of the Individual Notes
as Noteholders hereunder.

         (f)      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, so long as any Global Notes are registered in the name of Cede & Co.,
as nominee of the Depository, all distributions of principal and interest on
such Global Notes and all notices with respect to such Global Notes shall be
made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the Letter of
Representations.

         (g)      Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Note at the office of the Note Registrar and,
upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Issuer shall execute in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new

                                       28

<PAGE>

Note or Notes of the same Percentage Interest and dated the date of
authentication by the Indenture Trustee. The Note Registrar shall notify the
Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of any such transfer.

         At the option of the Noteholders, Notes may be exchanged for other
Notes in authorized denominations of a like Class, upon surrender of the Notes
to be exchanged at such office. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for
exchange, the Issuer shall execute the Notes which the Noteholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. Every Note presented or surrendered for
transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by wiring instructions, if applicable,
in the form of Exhibit C.

         (h)      No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange
of Notes, but prior to transfer the Note Registrar may require payment by the
transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may
be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.

         All Notes surrendered for payment, transfer and exchange or redemption
shall be marked canceled by the Note Registrar and retained for one year and
destroyed thereafter.

         (i)      By acceptance of an Individual Note, whether upon original
issuance or subsequent transfer, each holder of such a Note acknowledges the
restrictions on the transfer of such Note set forth in the Securities Legend and
agrees that it will transfer such a Note only as provided herein. In addition to
the provisions of subsection 4.02(n) the following restrictions shall apply with
respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of an Individual Note to a
transferee that takes delivery in the form of an Individual Note:

                  (i)      The Note Registrar shall register the transfer of an
         Individual Note if the requested transfer is being made to a transferee
         who has provided the Note Registrar with a Rule 144A Certification; or

                  (ii)     The Note Registrar shall register the transfer of any
         Individual Note if (x) the transferor has advised the Note Registrar in
         writing that the Note is being transferred to an Institutional
         Accredited Investor; and (y) prior to the transfer the transferee
         furnishes to the Note Registrar a Transferee Letter; provided, that, if
         based upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the delivery of (x)
         and (y) above are not sufficient to confirm that the proposed transfer
         is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not
         subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and
         other applicable laws, the Note Registrar may as a condition of the
         registration of any such transfer require the transferor to furnish
         other certifications, legal opinions or other information prior to
         registering the transfer of an Individual Note.

         (j)      Subject to subsection 4.02(n), so long as a Global Note
remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository, transfers of
beneficial interests in the Global Note, or transfers by holders of Individual
Notes to transferees that take delivery in the form of beneficial interests in
the Global Note, may be made only in accordance with this subsection 4.02(j) and
in accordance with the rules of the Depository.

                  (i)      Rule 144A Global Note to Regulation S Global Note
         During the Restricted Period. If, during the Restricted Period, a
         Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at
         any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global
         Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a

         Owner may, in addition to complying with all applicable rules and
         procedures of the Depository and Clearstream or Euroclear applicable to
         transfers by their respective participants (the "Applicable
         Procedures"), transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial
         interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S
         Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions of this subsection

         Office of (1) written instructions given in accordance with the
         Applicable Procedures from a Depository Participant directing the Note
         Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to another specified
         Depository Participant's account a beneficial interest in the
         Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the denomination of the
         beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be transferred, (2)
         a written order given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
         containing information regarding the account of the Depository
         Participant (and the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may
         be) to be credited with, and the account of the Depository Participant
         to be debited for, such beneficial interest, and (3) a certificate in
         the form of Exhibit E hereto given by the Beneficial Owner that is
         transferring such interest, the Note Registrar shall instruct the
         Depository to reduce the denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note by
         the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global
         Note to be so transferred and, concurrently with such reduction, to
         increase the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note by the
         denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to
         be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account
         of the Person specified in such instructions (who shall be a Depository
         Participant acting for or on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, or
         both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the Regulation S
         Global Note having a denomination equal to the amount by which the
         denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note was reduced upon such
         transfer.

                  (ii)     Rule 144A Global Note to Regulation S Global Note
         After the Restricted Period. If, after the Restricted Period, a
         Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note wishes at
         any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global
         Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a
         beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, such holder may, in
         addition to complying with all Applicable Procedures, transfer or cause
         the transfer of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial
         interest in a Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the
         provisions of this subsection 4.02(j)(ii). Upon receipt by the Note
         Registrar at its Corporate Trust Office of (1) written instructions
         given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures from a Depository
         Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit or cause to be
         credited to another specified Depository Participant's account a
         beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal
         to the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global
         Note to be transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with
         the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account

         the Depository Participant to be debited for, such beneficial interest,
         and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit F hereto given by the
         Beneficial Owner that is transferring such interest, the Note Registrar
         shall instruct the Depository to reduce the denomination of the Rule
         144A Global Note by the aggregate denomination of the beneficial
         interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred and,
         concurrently with such reduction, to increase the denomination of the
         Regulation S Global Note by the aggregate denomination of the
         beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to be so transferred,
         and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person
         specified in such instructions (who shall be a Depository Participant
         acting for or on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, or both, as the
         case may be) a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note
         having a denomination equal to the amount by which the denomination of
         the Rule 144A Global Note was reduced upon such transfer.

                  (iii)    Regulation S Global Note to Rule 144A Global Note. If
         the Beneficial Owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note
         wishes at any time to transfer its beneficial interest in such
         Regulation S Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery
         thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global
         Note, such holder may, in addition to complying with all Applicable
         Procedures, transfer or cause the transfer of such beneficial interest
         for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note only
         upon compliance with the provisions of this subsection 4.02(j)(iii).
         Upon receipt by the Note Registrar at its Corporate Trust Office of (1)
         written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
         from a Depository Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit or

         account a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note in an amount
         equal to the denomination of the beneficial interest in the Regulation
         S Global Note to be transferred, (2) a written order given in
         accordance with the Applicable Procedures containing information
         regarding the account of the Depository Participant to be credited
         with, and the account of the Depository Participant (or, if such
         account is held for Euroclear or Clearstream, the Euroclear or
         Clearstream account, as the case may be) to be debited for such
         beneficial interest, and (3) with respect to a transfer of a beneficial
         interest in the Regulation S Global Note for a beneficial interest in
         the related Rule 144A Global Note (i) during the Restricted Period, a

         denomination of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note
         to be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the
         account of the Person specified in such instructions (who shall be a
         Depository Participant acting for or on behalf of Euroclear or
         Clearstream, or both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the
         Rule 144A Global Note having a denomination equal to the amount by
         which the denomination of the Regulation S Global Note was reduced upon

                  (iv)     Transfers Within Regulation S Global Notes During
         Restricted Period. If, during the Restricted Period, the Beneficial
         Owner of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note wishes at any time
         to transfer its beneficial interest in such Trust Certificate to a
         Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Regulation
         S Global Note, such Beneficial Owner may transfer or cause the transfer
         of such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in
         such Regulation S Global Note only upon compliance with the provisions
         of this subsection 4.02(j)(iv) and all Applicable Procedures. Upon
         receipt by the Note Registrar at its Corporate Trust Office of (1)
         written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable Procedures
         from a Depository Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit or
         cause to be credited to another specified Depository Participant's
         account a beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note in an
         amount equal to the denomination of the beneficial interest to be
         transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with the
         Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of
         the Depository Participant to be credited with, and the account of the
         Depository Participant (or, if such account is held for Euroclear or
         Clearstream, the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may be)
         to be debited for, such beneficial interest and (3) a certificate in
         the form of Exhibit H hereto given by the transferee, the Note
         Registrar shall instruct the Depository to credit or cause to be
         credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions
         (who shall be a Depository Participant acting for or on behalf of
         Euroclear or Clearstream, or both, as the case may be) a beneficial
         interest in the Regulation S Global Note having a denomination equal to
         the amount specified in such instructions by which the account to be
         debited was reduced upon such transfer. The Note Registrar shall not be
         required to monitor compliance by Beneficial Owners of the provisions
         of this subsection 4.02(j)(iv).

         (k)      Any and all transfers from a Global Note to a transferee
wishing to take delivery in the form of an Individual Note will require the
transferee to take delivery subject to the restrictions on the transfer of such
Individual Note described on the face of such Note, and such transferee agrees
that it will transfer such Individual Note only as provided therein and herein.
No such transfer shall be made and the Note Registrar shall not register any
such transfer unless such transfer is made in accordance with this subsection
4.02(k).

                  (i)      Transfers of a beneficial interest in a Global Note
         to an Institutional Accredited Investor will require delivery of such
         Note to the transferee in the form of an Individual Note and the Note
         Registrar shall register such transfer only if prior to the transfer
         such transferee furnishes to the Note Registrar (1) a Transferee Letter
         to the effect that the transfer is being made to an Institutional
         Accredited Investor in accordance with an applicable exemption under
         the Securities Act, and (2) an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the
         Indenture Trustee that such transfer is in compliance with the
         Securities Act.

                  (ii)     Transfers of a beneficial interest in a Global Note
         to a Qualified Institutional Buyer or a Regulation S Investor wishing
         to take delivery in the form of an Individual Note will be registered
         by the Note Registrar only upon compliance with the provisions of
         subsection 4.02(j) and if the Note Registrar is provided with a Rule
         144A Certification or a Regulation S Transfer Certificate, as
         applicable.

                  (iii)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, no transfer of a
         beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note to an Individual Note
         pursuant to subparagraph (B) above shall be made prior to the
         expiration of the Restricted Period. Upon acceptance for exchange or
         transfer of a beneficial interest in a Global Note for an Individual
         Note, as provided herein, the Note Registrar shall endorse on the
         schedule affixed to the related Global Note Registrar (or on a
         continuation of such schedule affixed to such Global Note Registrar and
         made a part thereof) an appropriate notation evidencing the date of
         such exchange or transfer and a decrease in the denomination of such
         Global Note Registrar equal to the denomination of such Individual Note
         Registrar issued in exchange therefor or upon transfer thereof. Unless
         determined otherwise by the Company in accordance with applicable law,
         an Individual Note Registrar issued upon transfer of or exchange for a
         beneficial interest in the Global Note Registrar shall bear the
         Securities Legend.

         (l)      Transfers of Individual Note to the Global Notes. If a Holder
of an Individual Note wishes at any time to transfer such Note to a Person who
wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the
related Regulation S Global Note or the related Rule 144A Global Note, such
transfer may be effected only in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, and
this subsection 4.02(l). Upon receipt by the Note Registrar at the Corporate
Trust Office of (1) the Individual Note to be transferred with an assignment and
transfer, (2) written instructions given in accordance with the Applicable
Procedures from a Depository Participant directing the Note Registrar to credit
or cause to be credited to another specified Depository Participant's account a
beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Note or such Rule 144A Global
Note, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the denomination of the
Individual Note to be so transferred, (3) a written order given in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the account of
the Depository Participant (and, in the case of any transfer pursuant to
Regulation S, the Euroclear or Clearstream account, as the case may be) to be
credited with such beneficial interest, and (4) (x) if delivery is to be taken
in the form of a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Note, a
Regulation S Transfer Note from the transferor or (y) a Transferee Letter from
the transferee to the effect that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional
Buyer, if delivery is to be taken in the form of a beneficial interest in the
Rule 144A Global Note, the Note Registrar shall cancel such Individual Note,
execute and deliver a new Individual Note for the denomination of the Individual
Note not so transferred, registered in the name of the Holder, and the Note
Registrar shall instruct the Depository to increase the denomination of the
Regulation S Global Note or the Rule 144A Global Note, as the case may be, by
the denomination of the Individual Note to be so transferred, and to credit or
cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions
(who, in the case of any increase in the Regulation S Global Note during the
Restricted Period, shall be a Depository Participant acting for or on behalf of
Euroclear or Clearstream, or both, as the case may be) a corresponding
denomination of the Rule 144A Global Note or the Regulation S Global Note, as
the case may be.

         It is the intent of the foregoing that under no circumstances may an
Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer
take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note.

         (m)      An exchange of a beneficial interest in a Global Note for an
Individual Note or Notes, an exchange of an Individual Note or Notes for a
beneficial interest in a Global Note and

                                       33

<PAGE>

an exchange of an Individual Note or Notes for another Individual Note or Notes
(in each case, whether or not such exchange is made in anticipation of
subsequent transfer, and in the case of the Global Notes, so long as the Global
Notes remain outstanding and are held by or on behalf of the Depository), may be
made only in accordance with this Section 4.02 and in accordance with the rules
of the Depository and Applicable Procedures.

         (n)      (i)      Upon acceptance for exchange or transfer of an
Individual Note for a beneficial interest in the Global Note as provided herein,
the Note Registrar shall cancel such Individual Note and shall (or shall request
the Depository to) endorse on the schedule affixed to the applicable Global Note
(or on a continuation of such schedule affixed to the Global Note and made a
part thereof) an appropriate notation evidencing the date of such exchange or
transfer and an increase in the Note balance of the Global Note equal to the
Note balance of such Individual Note exchanged or transferred therefor.

                  (ii)     Upon acceptance for exchange or transfer of a
         beneficial interest in the Global Note for an Individual Note as
         provided herein, the Note Registrar shall (or shall request the
         Depository to) endorse on the schedule affixed to the Global Note (or
         on a continuation of such schedule affixed to the Global Note and made
         a part thereof) an appropriate notation evidencing the date of such
         exchange or transfer and a decrease in the Note balance of the Global
         Note equal to the Note balance of such Individual Note issued in
         exchange therefor or upon transfer thereof.

         (o)      The Securities Legend shall be placed on any Individual Note
issued in exchange for or upon transfer of another Individual Note or of a
beneficial interest in the Global Note.

         (p)      Subject to the restrictions on transfer and exchange set forth
in this Section 4.02, the holder of any Individual Note may transfer or exchange
the same in whole or in part (in an initial Note balance equal to the minimum
authorized denomination of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof) by surrendering such Note at the Corporate Trust Office, or at
the office of any transfer agent, together with an executed instrument of
assignment and transfer satisfactory in form and substance to the Note Registrar
in the case of transfer and a written request for exchange in the case of
exchange. The holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may, subject to
the rules and procedures of the Depository, cause the Depository (or its
nominee) to notify the Note Registrar in writing of a request for transfer or
exchange of such beneficial interest for an Individual Note or Notes. Following
a proper request for transfer or exchange, the Note Registrar shall, within five
(5) Business Days of such request made at such Corporate Trust Office, cause the
Indenture Trustee to authenticate and the Note Registrar to deliver at such
Corporate Trust Office, to the transferee (in the case of transfer) or holder
(in the case of exchange) or send by first class mail at the risk of the
transferee (in the case of transfer) or holder (in the case of exchange) to such
address as the transferee or holder, as applicable, may request, an Individual
Note or Notes, as the case may require, for a like aggregate Percentage Interest
and in such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested. The
presentation for transfer or exchange of any Individual Note shall not be valid
unless made at the Corporate Trust Office by the registered holder in person, or
by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact.

         (q)      No transfer of any Note shall be made unless such transfer is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and
laws. No transfer of any Note shall be made if such transfer would require the
Issuer to register as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act.
In the event of any such transfer, unless such transfer is made in reliance upon
Rule 144A under the Securities Act or Regulation S under the Securities Act, (i)
the Indenture Trustee may require a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made
pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, or the Servicer and (ii) the Indenture
Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a Transferee Letter certifying
to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer,
which Transferee Letter shall not be an expense of the Indenture Trustee, the
Issuer or the Servicer. The holder of a Note desiring to effect such transfer
shall, and by accepting a Note and the benefits of this Indenture does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Servicer and the
Initial Purchaser against any liability that may result if the transfer is not
so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws. None of
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Trust Depositor or the Initial Purchaser
intends or is obligated to register or qualify any Note under the Securities Act
or any state securities laws.

         (r)      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, on the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate in the
name of, and deliver to, the Trust Depositor, the Class C Note and the Class D
Note each in the form of a single Individual Note in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the Initial Class C Principal Balance and Initial Class D
Principal Balance, as applicable; provided, however, upon request of the Class C
Noteholder, on and after the Class C Interest Commencement Date, the Indenture
Trustee shall authenticate in the name of, and deliver to, the Class C
Noteholder one or more Global Notes and/or Individual Notes in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the Class C Principal Balance on such date. The Holder
of the Class C Note and the Class D Note shall initially be the Trust Depositor.
No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of one or more Class C Notes,
Class D Notes or Trust Certificates shall be made until the Class C Interest
Commencement Date unless after giving effect to such transfer, sale, pledge or
other disposition the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Trust
Certificates would be held by the same Person. No transfer, sale, pledge or
other disposition of one or more Class D Notes (a "Transfer") shall be made, on
and after the Class C Interest Commencement Date, unless simultaneously with the
Transfer (1) a proportionate amount of Trust Certificates are Transferred so
that the ratio of the Percentage Interest of the Trust Certificates so
Transferred to all Trust Certificates and the ratio of the Percentage Interest
of the Class D Notes so Transferred to all Class D Notes are equal, (2) the
Transfers of the Trust Certificates and Class D Notes referred to herein are
made to the same Person, and (3) the Percentage Interest of the Trust
Certificates and Class D Notes, respectively, so transferred is no less than ten
(10%) percent.

         (s)      The Class C Notes (prior to the Class C Interest Commencement
Date) and the Class D Notes may only be owned by United States Persons (as
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code).

                                       35

         (t)      No Class C Note (prior to the Class C Interest Commencement
Date) or Class D Note may be acquired directly or indirectly, for, on behalf of
or with the assets of an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement
subject to ERISA, and/or Section 4975 of the Code (collectively, a "Plan"). No
transfer of a Class C Note (prior to the Class C Interest Commencement Date) or
a Class D Note representing an Individual Note shall be made unless the
Indenture Trustee shall have received a certification from the transferee of
such Individual Note, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to
the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to the effect that such transferee is
acquiring a Class C Note or a Class D Note in conformance with the requirements
of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein,
in the event any purported transfer of any Class C Note (prior to the Class C
Interest Commencement Date) or a Class D Note representing an Individual Note is
made without delivery of the certification referred to above, such certification
shall be deemed to have been made by the Transferee by its acceptance of such
Individual Note.

         SECTION 4.03      MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN NOTES.

         Subject to UCC Section 8-405, 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 it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the
absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee
that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Issuer 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; provided, however, that if any such destroyed,
lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven
(7) days shall be due and payable, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the
Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable
without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or
payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the
preceding sentence, a protected purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which
such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the
Issuer 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 any assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and
shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to
the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the
Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

         Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 4.03, the
Issuer 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.

         Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 4.03 in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note 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.

                                       36

<PAGE>

         The provisions of this Section 4.03 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 4.04      PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST; DEFAULTED
                  INTEREST.

         (a)      The Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Accrual
Period on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during such Interest
Accrual Period and a year assumed to consist of 360 days. Any installment of
interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note which is punctually paid or
duly provided for by the Issuer on the applicable Remittance Date shall be paid
to the Person in whose name such Note 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, except that, unless Global Notes have
been issued pursuant to Section 4.02, with respect to Notes registered on the
Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Depository (initially, such
nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment will be made by wire transfer in immediately
available funds to the account designated by such Person and except for the
final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Remittance
Date or on the applicable Expected Maturity Date which shall be payable as
provided below. The funds represented by any such checks returned undelivered
shall be held in accordance with Section 3.03.

         (b)      The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on
each Remittance Date as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes
shall be due and payable, if not previously paid, on the date on which an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if the Indenture Trustee with
the consent of the Majority Noteholders have declared the Notes to be
immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02. All
principal payments among the Classes of Notes shall be made in the order and
priorities set forth herein and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and all
principal payments on the Notes of the same Class shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders of such Class. 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 Remittance Date on which the Issuer expects that the final
installment of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice
shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such final Remittance 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 10.02.

         SECTION 4.05      TAX TREATMENT.

         The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Notes will be
issued, with the intention that, for federal, state and local income, business
and franchise tax purposes, (i) the Notes (other than the Class C Notes (prior
to the Class C Interest Commencement Date) and the Class D Notes) will qualify
as indebtedness secured by the Indenture Collateral and (ii) the Issuer shall
not be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a
corporation. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder
(other than the Class C Noteholders (prior to the Class C Interest Commencement
Date) and the Class D Noteholders), by the

                                       37

<PAGE>

acceptance of any such Note (and each beneficial owner of a Note, by it's
acceptance of an interest in the applicable Note), agree to treat such Notes for
federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of
the Issuer. Each Holder of such Note (other than the Class C Noteholders (prior
to the Class C Interest Commencement Date) and the Class D Noteholders) agrees
that it will cause any beneficial owner of such Note acquiring an interest in a
Note through it to comply with this Indenture as to treatment of indebtedness
under applicable tax law, as described in this Section 4.05. The parties hereto
agree that they shall not cause or permit the making, as applicable, of any
election under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7703-3 whereby the Issuer or any
portion thereof would be treated as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes and, except as required by the terms of this Indenture, shall not file
tax returns or obtain any federal employer identification number for the Issuer,
but shall treat the Issuer as a security device or disregarded entity for
federal income tax purposes. The provisions of this Indenture shall be construed
in furtherance of the foregoing intended tax treatment.

         It is the intent of the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Class C
Noteholders (prior to the Class C Interest Commencement Date), the Class D
Noteholders and the Certificateholders that, (i) until the Class C Interest
Commencement Date, the Trust Certificates, the Class C Notes and the Class D
Notes will be owned by a single Holder, and, therefore, for federal income tax
purposes, the Trust will be treated as a division of such Holder, and such
Holder, by acceptance of the Trust Certificates, the Class C Notes and the Class
D Notes, agrees to take no action inconsistent with such treatment and (ii) on
the Class C Interest Commencement Date and thereafter, in the event that the
Trust Certificates and/or the Class D Notes are owned by more than one (1)
Holder, the Trust will be treated as a partnership, the partners of which are
the Certificateholders and the Class D Noteholders, and the Certificateholders
and the Class D Noteholders, by acceptance of a Trust Certificate and a Class D
Note, respectively, agree to treat the Trust Certificates and the Class D Notes
as equity and to take no action inconsistent with such treatment.

         SECTION 4.06      SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

         This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the
Notes except as to (i) rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii)
substitution of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, (iii) rights of
Noteholders to receive payments of principal thereof and interest thereon, (iv)
Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.10, 3.19, 3.21, 3.22, 4.05 and 11.16, (v) the
rights, obligations and immunities of the Indenture Trustee hereunder (including
the rights of the Indenture Trustee under Section 6.07 and the obligations of
the Indenture Trustee under Section 4.07) and (vi) the rights of Noteholders as
beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the
Indenture Trustee payable to all or any of them, and the Indenture Trustee, on
written demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with
respect to the Notes, when:

                           (A)      all Notes of such Series theretofore
                  authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Notes that have
                  been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or
                  paid as provided in Section 4.03 and (ii) Notes for whose
                  payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or
                  segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter
                  repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust, as

                                       38

                  provided in Section 3.03) have been delivered to the Indenture
                  Trustee for cancellation; and

                           (B)      the Issuer has delivered to the Indenture
                  Trustee an Officer's Certificate meeting the applicable
                  requirements of Section 11.01 and, subject to Section 11.01,
                  stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for
                  relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
                  with respect to the Notes have been complied with.

         This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to each
Swap when such Swap has been terminated and the Swap Counterparty has received
all amounts it is entitled to receive upon such termination.

         SECTION 4.07      APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY.

         All moneys deposited with the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section
4.06 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the
provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or
through any Paying Agent, as the Indenture Trustee may determine, to the Holders
of Notes for the payment or redemption of which such moneys have been deposited
with the Indenture Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon for
principal and interest; but such moneys need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required herein or in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or
required by law.

         SECTION 4.08      REPAYMENT OF MONEYS HELD BY PAYING AGENT.

         In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
with respect to the Notes, all moneys then held by any Paying Agent other than
the Indenture Trustee under the provisions of this Indenture with respect to
such Notes shall, upon demand of the Issuer, be paid to the Indenture Trustee to
be held and applied according to Section 3.05 and thereupon such Paying Agent
shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys.

                                    REMEDIES

         SECTION 5.01      EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

         Any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of
Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by
operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or
any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body) shall
constitute an Event of Default:

                  (i)      a default in the payment of any interest on any Note
         when the same becomes due and payable and such default shall continue
         for a period of two (2) Business Days;

                  (ii)     failure to reduce to zero the Aggregate Outstanding

         payment or deposit required under the Sale and Servicing Agreement
         within two (2) Business Days after the date the payment or deposit is
         required to be made;

                  (iv)     there occurs a default in the observance or
         performance in any material respect of any covenant or agreement of the
         Originator, the Trust Depositor or the Issuer made in the Sale and
         Servicing Agreement or this Indenture, or any representation or
         warranty of the Originator, the Trust Depositor or the Issuer made in
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement or this Indenture proving to have been
         incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall
         have been made and such default or incorrect representation or warranty
         has a material adverse effect on the rights of the Noteholders and the
         Swap Counterparties, and such default shall continue or not be cured,
         or the circumstance or condition in respect of which such
         representation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated
         or otherwise cured, for a period of thirty (30) days (if such failure
         can be remedied) after the first to occur of (i) actual knowledge
         thereof by a Responsible Officer of the Trust Depositor or (ii) there
         shall have been given to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or to the
         Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, by any Noteholder, a written notice
         specifying such default or incorrect representation or warranty and
         requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a notice of
         default hereunder;

                  (v)      there occurs the filing of a decree or order for
         relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the
         Trust Depositor, the Issuer or any substantial part of the Indenture
         Collateral in an involuntary case under any applicable federal or state
         bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,
         or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,

         the winding-up or liquidation of the Trust Depositor's or the Issuer's
         affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect
         for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days;

                  (vi)     there occurs the commencement by the Trust Depositor
         or the Issuer of a voluntary case under any applicable federal or state
         bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,

         first priority security interest in the Indenture Collateral, and such

                  (viii)   the Issuer shall be required to register as an
         "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
         amended;

                  (ix)     prior to the Class C Interest Commencement Date, the
         Class C Notes, the Class D Notes and the Trust Certificates are not
         held by the same Person; or

                  (x)      on any day, any Swap Transaction fails to meet the
         requirements set forth in this Agreement.

         The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, each Swap
Counterparty and the Rating Agencies, within two (2) Business Days after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, written notice in the form of an Officer's
Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time
would become an Event of Default under clause (v) of the definition of "Event of
Default," its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take
with respect thereto.

         SECTION 5.02      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 Majority Noteholders may declare
the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the
Issuer and the Rating Agencies (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by
Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such
Notes, 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
Majority Noteholders, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
and each Swap Counterparty, may rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences if:

                           (A)      the Issuer has paid or deposited with the
                  Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

                                    (i)      all payments of principal of and
                           interest on the Notes, all scheduled payments then
                           due and payable under each Swap and all other amounts
                           that would then be due hereunder, upon the Notes and
                           each Swap if the Event of Default giving rise to such
                           acceleration had not occurred; and

                                    (ii)     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

                           (B)      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.

                                       41

         No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent default or
impair any right consequent thereto. No such rescission or annulment shall
affect a Swap or any Swap Transaction that has been terminated in accordance
with the terms thereof.

         SECTION 5.03      COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT
                  BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a)      The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the
payment of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and
such default continues for a period of five (5) Business Days, or (ii) default
is made in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal
of any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues
for a period of two (2) Business Days, the Issuer will, upon demand of the
Indenture Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Noteholders, the whole
amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, with
interest upon the overdue principal, 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 Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts
upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust, with the consent of the Majority Noteholders and subject to the
provisions of Section 11.17 hereof may institute a Proceeding for the collection
of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or
final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon
the Notes and collect in the manner provided by law out of the Indenture
Collateral, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

         (c)      If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture
Trustee subject to the provisions of Section 11.17 hereof may, as more
particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion, proceed to protect and
enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties
and 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 Issuer or any
other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership
interest in the Indenture Collateral, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United
States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or
reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been
appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other
obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings
relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or
property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee,
irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable
as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether
the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 5.03, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
Proceedings or otherwise:

                                       42

<PAGE>

                  (i)      to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole
         amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
         Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or
         advisable in order to have the claims of the 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 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) and of the Noteholders allowed in
         such Proceedings;

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

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

                  (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 Noteholders allowed in any judicial
         proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property; and

                  (v)      to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of
         any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian 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 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 as trustee
of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the
expenses,

                                       43

<PAGE>

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 5.04      REMEDIES; PRIORITIES.

         (a)      If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
subject to the provisions of Section 11.17 hereof, the Indenture Trustee may do
one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.05 and Section 5.15):

                  (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 or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by
         declaration or otherwise, and all amounts payable under the Sale and
         Servicing Agreement, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from
         the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes moneys adjudged due;

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

                  (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 Holders of the Notes
         and the Swap Counterparties; and

                  (iv)     sell the Indenture Collateral or any portion thereof
         or rights or interest therein;

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise
liquidate the Indenture Collateral following an Event of Default, other than a
default in the payment of any principal or interest on the Notes for thirty (30)
days or more, unless (A) (i) prior to the payment in full of the Class A Notes
and the Class B Notes, the Class A Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate
Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A Notes, the Class B Noteholders
evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B
Notes and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to each Swap
Counterparty upon a termination of its Swap, each Swap Counterparty consents
thereto, (ii) from and after the payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class
B Notes and amounts due under the Swaps, Class C Noteholders evidencing 100% of
the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes consent
thereto, (iii) from and after payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B
Notes, the Class C Notes and amounts due under the Swaps, the Class D
Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of
all Class D Notes consent thereto, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation
distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts
then due and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest and all amounts
payable to each Swap Counterparty upon termination of the Swaps, or (C) the
Indenture Trustee determines that the Loans will not continue to provide
sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on

                                       44

<PAGE>

the Notes, in accordance with their respective terms as they would have become
due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture
Trustee obtains the consent of (i) prior to the payment in full of the Class A
Notes and the Class B Notes, the Class A Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the
aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A Notes, the Class B
Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of
all Class B Notes and, unless it shall be paid in full all amounts payable to
each Swap Counterparty upon a termination of its Swap, each Swap Counterparty,
(ii) from and after the payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes
and amounts due under the Swaps, Class C Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the
aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes, and (iii) from and
after the payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C
Notes and amounts due under the Swaps, the Class D Noteholders evidencing 66
2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D 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
Indenture Collateral for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as
a Servicer Default has not occurred, any Sale of the Indenture Collateral shall
be made subject to the continued servicing of the Loans by the Servicer as
provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         (b)      If the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property
pursuant to this Article V, it shall pay out the money or property as set forth
in Section 7.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

         The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and Remittance Date for any
payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.04. At least five (5) days
before such record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder and the
Indenture Trustee a notice that states the record date, the Remittance Date and
the amount to be paid.

         SECTION 5.05      OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE INDENTURE COLLATERAL.

         If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section
5.02 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences
have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not,
elect to maintain possession of the Indenture Collateral. It is the desire of
the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient
funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, amounts due
under the Swaps and other obligations of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee
shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain
possession of the Indenture Collateral. In determining whether to maintain
possession of the Indenture Collateral, 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 Indenture Collateral for such purpose.

         SECTION 5.06      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 and subject to
the provisions of Section 11.17 hereof:

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

                  (ii)     (A) prior to the payment in full of the Class A Notes
         and the Class B Notes, the Class A Noteholders evidencing 25% of the
         aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A Notes and the
         Class B Noteholders evidencing 25% of the aggregate Outstanding
         Principal Balance of all Class B 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, (B) from and
         after the payment in full of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes,
         Class C Noteholders evidencing 25% of the aggregate Outstanding
         Principal Balance of all Class C 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, and (C) from
         and after the payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes
         and the Class C Notes, Class D Noteholders evidencing 25% of the
         aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D 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 or Holders have offered to the Indenture
         Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and
         liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

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

                  (v)      (A) prior to the payment in full of the Class A Notes
         and Class B Notes, no direction inconsistent with such written request
         has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such sixty (60) day
         period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Principal
         Balance of the Class A Notes and Class B Notes, (B) from and after
         payment in full of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, no
         direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the
         Indenture Trustee during such sixty (60) day period by the Holders of a
         majority of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Class C Notes, and
         (C) from and after payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B
         Notes and the Class C Notes, no direction inconsistent with such
         written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such
         sixty (60) day period by the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding
         Principal Balance of the Class D Notes.

It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders 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
Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or

                                       46

<PAGE>

preference over any other Holders 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 (2) or more groups of Holders of
Notes, each representing less than a majority of the Aggregate Outstanding
Principal Balance, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion may determine
what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Indenture.

         SECTION 5.07      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 and
such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

         SECTION 5.08      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 Issuer, 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 5.09      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 any Note
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 V 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 Majority Noteholders 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 5.04, any
         direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Indenture
         Collateral shall be by Holders of the Notes representing (A) prior to
         the payment in full of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, 100% of
         the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A Notes and

         of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class D Notes;

                  (iii)    if the conditions set forth in Section 5.05 have been
         satisfied and the Indenture Trustee elects to retain the Indenture
         Collateral pursuant to such Section, then any direction to the
         Indenture to sell or liquidate the Indenture Collateral shall be of no
         force and effect unless (A) prior to the payment in full of the Class A
         Notes and the Class B Notes, the Class A Noteholders evidencing 100% of
         the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class A Notes and
         the Class B Noteholders evidencing 100% of the aggregate Outstanding
         Principal Balance of all Class B Notes and, unless it shall be paid in
         full all amounts payable to each Swap Counterparty upon a termination
         of its Swap, each Swap Counterparty consent thereto, (B) from and after
         the payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and amounts
         due under the Swaps, Class C Noteholders evidencing 100% of the
         aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class C Notes consent

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

         Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section
5.11, subject to Section 6.01, 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 Noteholders or Swap Counterparties not consenting to
such action.

         SECTION 5.12      WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

         Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the
Notes as provided in Section 5.02, the Majority Noteholders, may waive any past
Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default with respect to
payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or in respect of a
covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the
consent of the Holder of each Note. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer,
the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to
any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

         Upon any such waiver, 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 Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereto. No such waiver shall affect a
Swap or any Swap Transaction that has been terminated in accordance with its
terms.

         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 attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due
regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party
litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any
suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any
Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more
than 25% of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance 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.

         SECTION 5.14      WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

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

         SECTION 5.15      SALE OF INDENTURE COLLATERAL.

         (a)      The power to effect any sale or other disposition (a "Sale")
of any portion of a Indenture Collateral pursuant to Section 5.04 is expressly
subject to the provisions of

                                       49

<PAGE>

Section 5.05 and this Section 5.15. The power to effect any such Sale shall not
be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Indenture
Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire
Indenture Collateral shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes
and under this Indenture shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee hereby
expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any
Sale.

         (b)      The Indenture Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the
Indenture Collateral, or any portion thereof, unless the Holders of all the
Class A Notes, Class B Notes and Class C Notes (from and after the Class C
Interest Commencement Date) and each Swap Counterparty consent to or direct the
Indenture Trustee to make such Sale and:

                  (i)      the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than the
         entire amount which would be payable to the Noteholders under the Notes
         and the Swap Counterparties under the Swaps, in full payment thereof
         (including all Swap Breakage Costs and other amounts payable in
         connection with the termination of the Swaps) on the Remittance Date
         next succeeding the date of such Sale, or

                  (ii)     the Indenture Trustee determines, in its sole
         discretion, that the conditions for retention of the Indenture
         Collateral set forth in Section 5.05 cannot be satisfied (in making any
         such determination, the Indenture Trustee may rely upon an opinion of
         an Independent investment banking or accounting firm obtained and
         delivered as provided in Section 5.05, and the Majority Noteholders
         consent to such Sale, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

         (c)      In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the
Indenture Collateral:

                  (i)      any Holder or Holders of Notes may bid for and
         purchase the property offered for Sale, and upon compliance with the
         terms of Sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such
         property, without further accountability, and may, in paying the
         purchase money therefor, deliver any Notes or claims for interest
         thereon in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall, upon distribution
         of the net proceeds of such Sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes,
         in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount
         due thereon, shall be returned to the Holders thereof after being
         appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;

                  (ii)     the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the
         property offered for Sale in connection with any Sale thereof, and,
         subject to any requirements of, and to the extent permitted by,
         Requirements of Law in connection therewith, may purchase all or any
         portion of the Indenture Collateral in a private sale, and, in lieu of
         paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by
         crediting the gross Sale price against the sum of (A) the amount which
         would be distributable to the Holders of the Notes and Swap
         Counterparties as a result of such Sale in accordance with subsection
         5.04(b) on the Remittance Date next succeeding the date of such Sale
         and (B) the expenses of the Sale and of any Proceedings in connection
         therewith which are reimbursable to it, without being required to
         produce the Notes in order to complete any such Sale or in order for
         the net Sale price to be credited against such Notes, and any property
         so acquired by the

                                       50

<PAGE>

         Indenture Trustee shall be held and dealt with by it in accordance with
         the provisions of this Indenture;

                  (iii)    the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an
         appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any
         portion of the Indenture Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof;

                  (iv)     the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed
         the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its
         interest in any portion of the Indenture Collateral in connection with
         a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale;
         and

                  (v)      no purchaser or transferee at such a Sale 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 moneys.

         SECTION 5.16      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 lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee,
the Swap Counterparties or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of
any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any
execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Indenture Collateral or
upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the
Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with subsection 5.04(b).

         SECTION 5.17      PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS.

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

         (b)      If a Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Indenture Trustee, at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by
telephone (confirmed in writing promptly thereafter)) of (i) prior to the
payment in full of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, the Class A
Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of

aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Class B Notes consent thereto,
(ii) from and after the payment in full of the Class A Notes and the Class B
Notes, Class C Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding
Principal Balance of all Class C Notes consent thereto, and (iii) from and

                                       51

<PAGE>

after the payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class
C Notes, Class D Noteholders evidencing 66 2/3% of the aggregate Outstanding
Principal Balance of all Class D Notes consent thereto, shall exercise all
rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against 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 Servicer, of its obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to
give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and any right of the Issuer to take such
action shall not be suspended.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

         SECTION 6.01      DUTIES OF 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 with respect to the Indenture Collateral.

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

                  (i)      the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such

         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; however, 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 paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph
         (b) of this Section 6.01;

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

                  (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 Section 5.11.

                                       52

the Indenture Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (g) of this
Section 6.01.

         (e)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any

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

         (g)      The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise
any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture, to expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability or to honor the request or
direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture, unless the
Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity against the costs, expenses, and liabilities that might be incurred by
it in compliance with the request or direction.

         (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 the provisions of this Section 6.01.

                  (i)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have
         notice of any Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer assigned to
         and working in the Indenture Trustee's Corporate Trust Office has
         actual knowledge thereof.

         SECTION 6.02      RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         (a)      The Indenture Trustee may rely on any document believed by it

supervision of, any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed with
due care by it hereunder.

         (d)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it
takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or

                                       53

<PAGE>

         (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 bound to make any
investigation into the performance of the Issuer or the Servicer under this
Indenture or any other Transaction Document or into the matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, direction, consent, order, bond, note or other document, but the
Indenture Trustee, in its discretion, may make any further inquiry or
investigation into those matters that it deems appropriate, and if the Indenture
Trustee determines to inquire further, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the Issuer and the Servicer, personally or by
agent or attorney.

         (g)      If the Indenture Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent or as
Note Registrar, the rights and protections afforded to the Indenture Trustee
pursuant to the Article shall also be afforded to it in such additional
capacities.

         SECTION 6.03      INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE.

         The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may
become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or
its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture
Trustee. Any Note Registrar, co-registrar, Paying Agent or co-paying agent may
do the same with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with
Section 6.11.

         SECTION 6.04      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, the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the
validity or sufficiency of any security interest intended to be created or the
characterization of the Notes for tax purposes or the Notes, it shall not be
accountable for the Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall
not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in the 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 6.05      NOTICE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT.

         The Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder, each Swap
Counterparty and the Owner Trustee notice of an Event of Default within thirty
(30) days after the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge thereof in accordance
with Section 6.01. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of
principal of or interest on any 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 Swap Counterparties.

                                       54

<PAGE>

         SECTION 6.06      REPORTS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS.

         The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder such information
as may be required to enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income
tax returns. In addition, upon the Issuer's or a Noteholder's written request,
the Indenture Trustee shall promptly furnish information reasonably requested by
the Issuer or such Noteholder that is reasonably available to the Indenture
Trustee to enable the Issuer or such Noteholder to perform its federal and state
income tax reporting obligations.

         SECTION 6.07      COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY.

         The Issuer shall or shall cause the Trust Depositor to pay to the
Indenture Trustee on each Remittance Date such reasonable compensation for its
services pursuant to a separate agreement between the Indenture Trustee and the
Trust Depositor. The Indenture Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by
any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall or
shall cause the Trust Depositor 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 Issuer shall or shall cause the Trust Depositor to indemnify the Indenture
Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys'
fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the
performance of its duties hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the
Issuer and the Trust Depositor promptly of any claim for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the
Trust Depositor shall not relieve the Issuer or the Trust Depositor of its
obligations hereunder or under the Trust Agreement. Neither the Issuer nor the
Trust Depositor 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 Issuer's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to
this Section 6.07 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the
Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default
specified in clauses (iv) or (v) of the definition of "Event of Default" with
respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

         SECTION 6.08      REPLACEMENT OF 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 6.08.
The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. The
Majority Noteholders or the Issuer, with the written consent of the Majority
Noteholders, may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture
Trustee and the Rating Agencies in writing and may appoint a successor Indenture
Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

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

                                       55

                  (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;

                  (iv)     the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of
         acting; or

                  (v)      the Indenture Trustee defaults in any of its
         obligations under the Transaction Documents and such default is not
         cured within thirty (30) days after a Responsible Officer of the
         Indenture Trustee receives written notice of such default.

         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 Issuer
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 Issuer. 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. No successor Indenture Trustee
shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 6.08 unless at the time of
such acceptance such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section
6.11. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to
Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall
promptly transfer all property (including all Indenture Collateral) held by it
as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee and shall execute and
deliver such instruments and such other documents as may reasonably be required
to more fully and certainly vest and confirm in the successor Indenture Trustee
all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

         If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60)
days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Majority Noteholders, 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 6.08, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue
for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

         Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Indenture Trustee as
provided in this Section 6.08, the Servicer shall mail notice of such succession
hereunder to all Holders of Notes at their addresses as shown in the Note
Register and the Swap Counterparties at their addresses as shown on the register
kept by the Issuer, as provided to the Indenture Trustee. If the Servicer fails
to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the
successor Indenture Trustee, the successor Indenture Trustee shall cause such
notice to be mailed at the expense of the Servicer.

         SECTION 6.09      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; provided, that, such corporation or banking association shall be
otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall
provide the Rating Agencies and the Swap Counterparties prior written notice of
any such transaction.

         In case at the time such successor or successors 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 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 hereunder or in the name of the
successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates
shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

         SECTION 6.10      APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE
                  INDENTURE 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 Indenture Collateral 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 Persons, to act as a co-trustee or
co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Indenture Collateral, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity
and for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties, such
interest to the Indenture Collateral, or any part hereof, and, subject to the
other provisions of this Section 6.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights
and trusts as the 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 Indenture Trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to
the Noteholders or the Swap Counterparties of the appointment of any co-trustee
or separate trustee shall be required under Section 6.08 hereof. No appointment
of a co-trustee or a separate trustee shall relieve the Indenture Trustee of its
duties and obligations hereunder.

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

                  (i)      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 or acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be
         incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event
         such

                                       57

<PAGE>

         rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title
         to the Indenture Collateral or any portion thereof in any such
         jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate
         trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the 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 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 Indenture and
the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon
its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or
property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the
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, 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 Indenture 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.

         SECTION 6.11      ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION.

         The Indenture Trustee hereunder shall at all times be (i) a national
banking association or banking corporation or trust company organized and doing
business under the laws of any state or the United States, (ii) authorized under
such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, (iii) having a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000, (iv) having unsecured and unguaranteed
long-term debt obligations rated at least Baa3 by Moody's, BBB by Fitch and BBB-
by S&P, and (v) is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority. If such banking association publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.11 its combined
capital and surplus shall be deemed to be as set forth in its most recent report
of condition so published. In case at any time the Indenture Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.11, the
Indenture Trustee shall (a) give prompt notice to the Issuer, the Trust
Depositor, the Servicer, the Noteholders and the Swap Counterparties that it has
so ceased to be eligible to be the Indenture Trustee and (b) resign, upon the
request of the Majority Noteholders in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 6.08.

to which it is a party or the transactions contemplated in this Indenture and
the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

         (d)      The execution, delivery and performance by the Indenture

Indenture Trustee hereby agrees and covenants that it will not at any time in
the future, deny that this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents to
which it is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding agreement of the
Indenture Trustee.

         (f)      The Indenture Trustee shall not take any action, or fail to
take any action, if such action or failure to take action will materially

Noteholders or the Swap Counterparties under this Indenture or the other

Counterparties in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided,
however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an

or convey the Indenture Trustee's interest in the same, in a manner and under
circumstances that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture,
Section 5.08 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Indenture Trustee

         to the lien of this Indenture additional property;

         and in the Notes contained;

                  (iii)    to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the
         benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the Swap Counterparties, or to
         surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer;

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

         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 as evidenced by an
         Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Indenture Trustee, adversely affect
         the interests of the Noteholders or the Swap Counterparties in any
         material respect;

                  (vi)     to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the
         appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes
         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; and

                  (vii)    to add to the conditions, limitations and
         restrictions on the authorized amount, terms and purposes of the
         issuance, authentication and delivery of any Class of Notes, as herein
         set forth, additional conditions, limitations and restrictions
         thereafter to be observed.

         The Indenture 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 Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an
Issuer Order, may, also without the consent of any of the Holders of the Notes
but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, 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 the Notes or any Swap
Counterparty under this Indenture; provided, however, that such action shall
not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, (i) adversely affect in any material
respect the interest of any Noteholder or any Swap Counterparty or (ii) cause
the Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax or be classified as a taxable
mortgage pool within the meaning of Section 7701(i) of the Code.

         SECTION 9.02      SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF NOTEHOLDERS.

         The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer
Order, also may, with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and with the consent
of the Majority Noteholders by Act of such Holders and the Swap Counterparties,
enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental

                                       64

<PAGE>

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 the Notes under this Indenture; provided,
however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the
Holder of each Note affected thereby:

                  (i)      change the date of payment of any installment of
         principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount
         thereof or the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this
         Indenture relating to the application of collections on, or the
         proceeds of the sale of the Indenture Collateral to payment of
         principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment
         where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest
         thereon is payable, 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 the Notes on or after the
         respective due dates thereof;

                  (ii)     reduce the percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding
         Principal Balance, 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 any provision of this
         Indenture or defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in
         this Indenture;

                  (iii)    modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the
         definition of the term "Outstanding" or modify or alter the exception
         in the definition of the term "Holder";

                  (iv)     reduce the percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding
         Principal Balance required to direct the Indenture Trustee to direct
         the Issuer to sell or liquidate the Indenture Collateral pursuant to
         Section 5.04;

                  (v)      modify any provision of this Section 9.02 except to
         increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain
         additional provisions of this Indenture or the Transaction Documents
         cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each
         Note affected thereby; or

                  (vi)     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 Indenture Collateral 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 Noteholder or any
         Swap Counterparty of the security provided by the lien of this
         Indenture; and provided, further, that such action shall not, as
         evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Issuer to be subject to
         an entity level tax or be classified as a taxable mortgage pool within
         the meaning of Section 7701(i) of the Code.

         Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, in no
event may Section 3.32 of the Indenture be amended or modified in any respect
without the prior written consent of each Swap Counterparty.

         The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not
any Notes would be affected by any supplemental indenture and any such
determination shall be conclusive upon the

                                       65

<PAGE>

Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and
delivered hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any such
determination made in good faith.

         It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders or Swap
Counterparties under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any
proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall
approve the substance thereof.

         Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of
any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Indenture Trustee
shall mail to the Holders of the Notes and the Swap Counterparties to which such
amendment or supplemental indenture relates a copy of such supplemental
Indenture or a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such
supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such
notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect
the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

         SECTION 9.03      EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

         In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any
supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby
of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled
to receive, and subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02, 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. The Indenture
Trustee shall provide copies of each supplemental indenture to the Rating
Agencies.

         SECTION 9.04      EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.

         Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the
provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and shall 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
Issuer and the Noteholders 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 9.05      [RESERVED].

         SECTION 9.06      REFERENCE IN NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

         Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX 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
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to
conform, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, to any such
supplemental

                                       66

<PAGE>

indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and
delivered by the Indenture Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

                                   ARTICLE X

                                   [RESERVED]

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         SECTION 11.01     COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES AND OPINIONS, ETC.

         (a)      Upon any application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture
Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Issuer
shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating that all
conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the
proposed action have been complied with, and, if required, an Opinion of Counsel
stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if
any, have been complied with, except that, in the case of any such application
or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required
by any provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be
furnished.

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

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

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

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

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

                  (v)      if the signer of such Trust Certificate or Opinion is
         required to be Independent, the Statement required by the definition of
         the term "Independent".

         (b)      (i)      Prior to the deposit of any Indenture 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 Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in subsection
11.01(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an

                                       67

<PAGE>

Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing
such certificate as to the estimated fair value (within ninety (90) days of such
deposit) to the Issuer of the Indenture Collateral or other property or
securities to be so deposited.

                  (ii)     Subject to clause (iii), whenever any property or
         securities are to be released from the lien of this Indenture, the
         Issuer 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 estimated fair value (within ninety (90)
         days of such release) of the property or securities proposed to be
         released and stating that in the opinion of such person the proposed
         release will not impair the security under this Indenture in
         contravention of the provisions hereof.

                  (iii)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture, the
         Issuer may, without compliance with the requirements of the other
         provisions of this Section 11.01, (A) collect, sell or otherwise
         dispose of Loans and Indenture Collateral as and to the extent
         permitted or required by the Transaction Documents, or (B) make cash
         payments out of the Trust Accounts.

         SECTION 11.02     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 Issuer may
be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion
of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which
the certificate or opinion is based 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 Issuer, the Trust Depositor, or other
appropriate Person, stating that the information with respect to such factual
matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Issuer, the Trust Depositor or
such other Person, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

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

         Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer
shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application,
or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended
that the truth and accuracy in all material respects, 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

                                       68

<PAGE>

facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be
construed to affect the 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 11.03     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 instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents
duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided
such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required,
to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein
and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the
Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in
favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in
this Section 11.03.

         (b)      The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the 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 other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder
of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in
lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the
Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of
such action is made upon such Note.

         SECTION 11.04     NOTICES, ETC., TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND OTHERS.

         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:

                  (i)      the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the
         Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given,
         furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee and
         received at the Corporate Trust Office, or

                  (ii)     the Issuer 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 Issuer addressed
         to: CapitalSource Commercial Loan Trust 2002-1, c/o Wilmington Trust
         Company, One Rodney Square North, Wilmington, Delaware 19890,
         Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, with a copy to CapitalSource
         Finance LLC at 4445 Willard Avenue, 12th Floor, Chevy Chase, Maryland
         20815, Attention: James

                                       69

<PAGE>

         Mozingo, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the
         Indenture Trustee by the Issuer, CapitalSource or the Trust Depositor.
         The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the
         Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

         Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered
or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to (i) in the case of
S&P, at the following address: Standard and Poor's Rating Service, 55 Water
Street, 41st Floor, New York, New York 10007, Attention: Surveillance:
Asset-Backed Services, (ii) in the case of Fitch, at the following address: 55
East Monroe Street, Suite 3500, Chicago, Illinois 60603, Attention: CDO
Surveillance, and (iii) in the case of Moody's, at the following address:
Moody's Investors Service, ABS Monitoring Department, 99 Church Street, New
York, New York 10007; or as to each of the foregoing, at such other address as
shall be designated by written notice to the other parties; provided, however,
that no notice shall be required to be given to the Rating agencies until a
Class of Notes has been rated by such Rating Agency.

         Notices required to be given to any Swap Counterparty by the Issuer,
the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally
delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the notice
address shown in the register kept by the Issuer, as provided to the Indenture
Trustee.

         SECTION 11.05     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, by nationally recognized overnight courier
or by 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 as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical
to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be
given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving
such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to
be a sufficient giving of such notice.

                                       70

<PAGE>

         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 an Event of
Default.

         SECTION 11.06     ALTERNATE PAYMENT AND NOTICE PROVISIONS.

         Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to
the contrary, the Issuer 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 for such payments or notices. The Issuer 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 11.07     [RESERVED].

         SECTION 11.08     EFFECT OF HEADINGS.

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

         SECTION 11.09     SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

         All covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the
Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All
agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors,
co-trustees and agents.

         SECTION 11.10     SEVERABILITY.

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

         SECTION 11.11     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, and the Noteholders, and any other party secured hereunder (including
the Swap Counterparties), and any other Person with an ownership interest in any
part of the Indenture Collateral, 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
succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on
which nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after
any such nominal date.

                                       71

<PAGE>

         SECTION 11.13     GOVERNING LAW.

         (a)      THIS INDENTURE, EACH SUPPLEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT
REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH
LAWS.

         (b)      EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT
OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS INDENTURE. Each party hereto (i) certifies that no representative,
agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise,
that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the
foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have
been induced to enter into this Indenture by, among other things, the mutual
waivers and certifications in this subsection 11.13(b).

         SECTION 11.14     COUNTERPARTS.

         This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts (including
by facsimile), each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but
all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

         SECTION 11.15     [RESERVED].

         SECTION 11.16     ISSUER OBLIGATION.

         No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Issuer, the Owner 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 Owner
Trustee in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director,
employee or agent of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any
such Person may have expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture
Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations in their individual
capacity) 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 Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee and the

in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any
of the Transaction Documents.

         SECTION 11.18     INSPECTION; CONFIDENTIALITY.

         The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any
representative of the Indenture Trustee, during the Issuer's normal business
hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the Issuer's
normal operations, to examine all the books of account, records, reports and
other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such
books to be audited by Independent certified public accountants, and to discuss
the Issuer's affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer's officers,
employees, and Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable
times, in such reasonable manner, and as often as may be reasonably requested.
THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE SHALL AND SHALL CAUSE ITS REPRESENTATIVES, ITS LEGAL
COUNSEL AND ITS AUDITORS TO HOLD IN CONFIDENCE ALL SUCH INFORMATION EXCEPT TO
THE EXTENT DISCLOSURE MAY BE REQUIRED BY LAW (AND ALL REASONABLE APPLICATIONS
FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT ARE UNAVAILING) AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE
INDENTURE TRUSTEE MAY REASONABLY DETERMINE THAT SUCH DISCLOSURE IS CONSISTENT
WITH ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

         SECTION 11.19     LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

         It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (a)
this Indenture is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not
individually or personally but solely as Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer
under the Trust Agreement, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred
and vested in it, (b) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements
herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal
representations, undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Trust Company but is
made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer, (c) nothing herein
contained shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Trust
Company individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or
implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by
the parties to this Indenture and by any person claiming by, through or under
them and (d) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company be personally
liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be
liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or
covenant made or undertaking by the Issuer under this Indenture or any related
documents.

         SECTION 11.20     DISCLAIMER AND SUBORDINATION.

         Each Noteholder by accepting a Note and each Swap Counterparty by
accepting the benefits of this Indenture acknowledges and agrees that this
Indenture and the Notes represent a debt obligation of the Issuer only and do
not represent an interest in any assets (other than the Indenture Collateral) of
the Trust Depositor (including by virtue of any deficiency claim in respect of
obligations not paid or otherwise satisfied from the Trust Assets and proceeds
thereof).

                                       73

<PAGE>

In furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, each Noteholder by
accepting a Note and each Swap Counterparty by accepting the benefits of this
Indenture acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right, title or interest
in or to any assets (or interests therein) (other than the Indenture Collateral)
conveyed or purported to be conveyed by the Trust Depositor to another
securitization trust (i.e., other than the Issuer) or other Person or Persons in
connection therewith (whether by way of a sale, capital contribution or by
virtue of the granting of a Lien) ("Other Assets"). To the extent that,
notwithstanding the agreements and provisions contained in the preceding
sentences of this Section 11.20, any Noteholder or Swap Counterparty either (i)
asserts an interest in or claim to, or benefit from, Other Assets, whether
asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other Person owned by the
Trust Depositor, or (ii) is deemed to have any such interest, claim or benefit
in or from Other Assets, whether by operation of law, legal process, pursuant to
applicable provisions of any applicable insolvency laws or otherwise (including
without limitation by virtue of Section 111l(b) of the federal Bankruptcy Code
or any successor provision having similar effect under the Bankruptcy Code or
any successor provision having similar effect under the Bankruptcy Code), and
whether deemed asserted against or through the Trust Depositor or any other
Person owned by the Trust Depositor, then each Noteholder by accepting a Note
and each Swap Counterparty by accepting the benefits of this Indenture further
acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim or benefit in or from
Other Assets is and shall be expressly subordinated to the indefeasible payment
in full of all obligations and liabilities of the Trust Depositor which, under
the terms of the relevant documents relating to the securitization of such Other
Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the benefits of, or otherwise
secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or security
interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to a priority of
distribution or application under applicable law, including any applicable
insolvency laws, and whether asserted against the Trust Depositor or any other
Person owned by the Trust Depositor), including, without limitation, the payment
of post-petition interest on such other obligations and liabilities. This
subordination agreement shall be deemed a subordination agreement within the
meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Noteholder and each Swap
Counterparty further acknowledges and agrees that no adequate remedy at law
exists for a breach of this Section 11.20 and that the terms and provisions of
this Section 11.20 may be enforced by an action for specific performance.
Nothing in this Section 11.20 shall in any way affect the rights of any Swap
Counterparty against any guaranty by CapitalSource Finance LLC of the Issuer's
obligations under any Swap.

is herein called the "Indenture"), between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank
Minnesota, National Association, as indenture 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
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Class A Notes. The Class A
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture. All terms used in this Class A
Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or amended, shall have
the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture, as so

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of
the Class A Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee, or the
Majority Noteholders have declared the Class A Notes to be immediately due and
payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture. All principal
payments on the Class A Notes shall be made pro rata to the Class A Noteholders
entitled thereto.

         Each Class A Noteholder or Class A Note Owner, by acceptance of a Class
A Note or, in the case of a Class A Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Class
A Note covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture on
the Class A Notes or under any certificate or other writing delivered in
connection therewith, against the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity.

         On each Remittance Date, commencing May 20, 2002, the Indenture Trustee
or Paying Agent shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Class A Note
is registered at the close of business on the calendar day immediately preceding
a Remittance Date (or, in the case of the first Remittance Date, May 19, 2002)
(the "Record Date") an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest of
the Class A Notes evidenced by this Class A Note and the amount required to be
distributed to Holders of Class A Notes on such Remittance Date pursuant to
Section 3.05 of the Indenture.

         During each Interest Accrual Period, this Class A Note will bear
interest at the Class A Note Interest Rate.

         Distributions on this Class A Note will be made by the Indenture
Trustee or Paying Agent by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such name and address shall appear on the Note Register or, upon
written request to the Indenture Trustee, by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto as shall appear on
the Note Register without the presentation or surrender of this Note or the
making of

                                     A-1-5

any notation thereon, at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, and, in the case of wire transfers, at the expense of such Person
unless such Person shall own of record Class A Notes which have Initial Class A
Principal Balances aggregating at least $1,000,000.

         Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Class A Note
will be made after due notice by the Indenture Trustee of the pendency of such

Interest Account and the Reserve Fund may be made by the Indenture Trustee from
time to time for purposes other than distributions to Class A Noteholders, such
purposes including reimbursement to the Servicer of advances made, or certain
expenses incurred, by it, and investment in Permitted Instruments.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Class A Note is registrable in the Note Register
upon surrender of this Class A Note for registration of transfer at the offices
or agencies maintained by the Note Registrar in New York, New York, duly

         This Class C Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Class C Notes of
the Issuer, designated as its CapitalSource Commercial Loan Trust Notes, Series
2002-1, Class C (herein called the "Class C Notes"), all issued under an
Indenture, dated as of May 16, 2002 (such indenture, as supplemented or amended,
is herein called the "Indenture"), between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank
Minnesota, National Association, as indenture 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
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Class C Notes. The Class C
Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture. All terms used in this Class C
Note that are defined in the Indenture, as supplemented or amended, shall have
the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture, as so
supplemented or amended.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of
the Class C Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee, or the
Majority Noteholders have declared the Class C Notes to be immediately due and
payable in the manner provided in Section 5.02 of the Indenture. All principal
payments on the Class C Notes shall be made pro rata to the Class C Noteholders
entitled thereto.

         Each Class C Noteholder or Class C Note Owner, by acceptance of a Class
C Note or, in the case of a Class C Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Class
C Note covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or
indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer under the Indenture on
the Class C Notes or under any certificate or other writing delivered in
connection therewith, against the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity or any of their
Affiliates.

         On each Remittance Date prior to the Class C Interest Commencement
Date, commencing May 20, 2002, the Indenture Trustee or Paying Agent shall
distribute to the Person in whose name this Class C Note is registered at the
close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding a
Remittance Date (or in the case of the first Remittance Date, May 19, 2002) (the
"Record Date") an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest of the
Class C Notes evidenced by this Class C Note and the amount required to be
distributed to Holders of Class C Notes on such Remittance Date pursuant to
Section 3.05 of the Indenture; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing,
if, after the Class C Interest Commencement Date, the Class C Note is issued as
a book-entry Note the Record Date shall be the close of business on the calendar
day immediately preceding a Remittance Date.

         Prior to the Class C Interest Commencement Date, this Class C Note will
not bear interest. During each Interest Accrual Period on and after the Class C
Interest Commencement Date, this Class C Note will bear interest at the Class C
Note Interest Rate.

         Distributions on this Class C Note will be made by the Indenture
Trustee or Paying Agent by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such name and address shall appear on the Note Register or, upon
written request to the Indenture Trustee, by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto as shall appear on
the

                                      A-3-5

<PAGE>

Note Register without the presentation or surrender of this Note or the making
of any notation thereon, at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, and, in the case of wire transfers, at the expense of such Person
unless such Person shall own of record Class C Notes which have Initial Class C
Principal Balances aggregating at least $1,000,000.

         Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Class C Note
will be made after due notice by the Indenture Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Class C Note at
the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Note Registrar in New
York, New York.

         As provided in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
deposits and withdrawals from the Note Distribution Account, the Principal and
Interest Account and the Reserve Fund may be made by the Indenture Trustee from
time to time for purposes other than distributions to Class C Noteholders, such
purposes including reimbursement to the Servicer of advances made, or certain
expenses incurred, by it, and investment in Permitted Instruments.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Class C Note is registrable in the Note Register
upon surrender of this Class C Note for registration of transfer at the offices
or agencies maintained by the Note Registrar in New York, New York, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to, the Indenture Trustee, duly executed by the holder hereof or
such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Class C Notes in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
undivided Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

         The Class C Note is issuable only as a registered Class C Note. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the Class C Note is exchangeable for a new Class C Note evidencing the same
undivided ownership interest, as requested by the holder surrendering the same.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Servicer, the Trust Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Note
Registrar, and any agent of any of the foregoing, may treat the person in whose
name this Class C Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
none of the foregoing shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations and responsibilities created by the Indenture with
respect to this Class C Note shall terminate upon the payment to Class C
Noteholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Indenture
and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the disposition of all property held as
part of the Indenture Collateral with respect to this Class C Note.

Affiliates.

         On each Remittance Date, commencing May 20, 2002, the Indenture Trustee

         Distributions on this Class D Note will be made by the Indenture

thereto as such name and address shall appear on the Note Register or, upon
written request to the Indenture Trustee, by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto as shall appear on
the Note Register without the presentation or surrender of this Note or the
making of any notation thereon, at a bank or other entity having appropriate
facilities therefor, and, in the case of wire transfers, at the expense of such
Person unless such Person shall own of record Class D Notes which have Initial
Class D Principal Balances aggregating at least $1,000,000.

         Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Class D Note
will be made after due notice by the Indenture Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Class D Note at
the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Note Registrar in New
York, New York.

         As provided in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
deposits and withdrawals from the Note Distribution Account, the Principal and
Interest Account and the Reserve Fund may be made by the Indenture Trustee from
time to time for purposes other than distributions to Class D Noteholders, such
purposes including reimbursement to the Servicer of advances made, or certain
expenses incurred, by it, and investment in Permitted Instruments.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Class D Note is registrable in the Note Register
upon surrender of this Class D Note for registration of transfer at the offices
or agencies maintained by the Note Registrar in New York, New York, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to, the Indenture Trustee, duly executed by the holder hereof or
such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Class D Notes in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
undivided Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

         The Class D Note is issuable only as a registered Class D Note. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the Class D Note is exchangeable for a new Class D Note evidencing the same
undivided ownership interest, as requested by the holder surrendering the same.

         No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

         The Servicer, the Trust Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Note
Registrar, and any agent of any of the foregoing, may treat the person in whose
name this Class D Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and
none of the foregoing shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

         The obligations and responsibilities created by the Indenture shall
terminate upon the payment to Class D Noteholders of all amounts required to be
paid to them pursuant to the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and
the disposition of all property held as part of the Indenture Collateral.
