            select as the next succeeding Tranche Period for such Tranche (and
            any subsequent Tranche Periods designated by such Funding Agent) a
            period of one month during which Interest shall be computed by
            reference to the Adjusted

                                       33

            Borrower may notify the applicable Funding Agent that, in view of

            be computed by reference to the Base Rate.

                                   ARTICLE II

                         AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE LOANS

            SECTION 2.01 The Loans.

            (a) On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, on the
Amendment Effective Date, and thereafter from time to time prior to the
Termination Date, each Conduit Lender may in its sole discretion, and each
Committed Lender shall if the Conduit Lender in its related Lender Group elects
not to do so, make Loans to the Borrower in an amount in Dollars, for each
Lender Group, equal to its Lender Group Percentage of the amount requested by
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02; provided that, after giving effect to
such Loans:

                  (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans
            for any Lender Group shall not exceed its Lender Group Limit; and

                  (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans
            for all Lenders shall not exceed the Facility Limit.

If there is more than one Committed Lender in a Lender Group, each such
Committed Lender shall lend its Pro Rata Share of such Lender Group's Lender
Group Percentage of each Loan, to the extent not loaned by the related Conduit
Lender. Each borrowing of Loans hereunder (each a "Borrowing") shall be in a
minimum principal amount equal to such amount as will ensure that (x) no Lender
Group's Lender Group Percentage of such Borrowing would be less than $1,000,000
and (y) each Lender Group's Lender Group Percentage of such Borrowing would be
an integral multiple of $100,000. Subject to the foregoing and to the
limitations set forth in Section 2.05(d), the Borrower may borrow, prepay and
reborrow the Loans hereunder.

                                       35
<PAGE>

            (b) The Loans made by the Lenders in any Lender Group shall be
evidenced by a promissory note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (each, a
"Note"). Each Note shall be dated the date of this Agreement, shall be duly
executed by the Borrower, shall be payable to the Funding Agent for the
applicable Lender Group and shall have a stated maximum principal amount equal
to the Lender Group Limit for such Lender Group. Each Funding Agent may, in its
discretion, enter on a schedule attached to its Note a notation (which may be
computer generated) with respect to each Loan made hereunder by the Lenders in
its Lender Group of (i) the date and principal amount thereof and (ii) each
payment and repayment of principal thereof. The failure of any Funding Agent to
make any such notation on the schedule to its Note shall not limit or otherwise
affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the
terms thereof and hereof.

            (c) The Borrower may, from time to time upon at least five Business
Days' prior written notice via electronic mail followed by telecopy to each
Funding Agent, elect to reduce the Facility Limit, provided that after giving
effect to any such reduction and any principal payments on such date, the
Aggregate Principal Balance shall not exceed the Facility Limit. Any such
reduction shall reduce each Lender Group Limit (and the corresponding Conduit
Lending Limit(s)) hereunder ratably in accordance with their respective Lender
Group Percentages and shall reduce each Committed Lender's Commitment ratably
within its Lender Group in accordance with each Committed Lender's Pro Rata
Share. Once the Facility Limit is reduced pursuant to this Section 2.01(c) it
may not subsequently be reinstated without the consent of each Committed Lender.

            SECTION 2.02 Borrowing Procedures.

            (a) Borrowing Request.

            (i) The Borrower shall request a Borrowing hereunder by submitting
      to each Funding Agent a written notice, substantially in the form of
      Exhibit B (each, a "Borrowing Request") prior to (A) in the case of Loans
      which are to accrue interest by reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate,
      1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date
      of the proposed Borrowing (each, a "Borrowing Date") and (B) with respect
      to a Loan of any other Rate Type, 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the
      Business Day prior to the Borrowing Date.

            (ii) Each Borrowing Request shall: (A) specify (1) the amount of the
      requested Borrowing and the allocation of such amount among the Lender
      Groups, (2) the Aggregate Principal Balance after giving effect to such
      Borrowing, (3) the desired Borrowing Date and (4) the desired Tranche
      Period(s) and allocations of the principal amount of such Borrowing
      thereto pursuant to Section 2.10 and (B) certify that, after giving effect
      to the proposed Borrowing, (1) the Percentage Factor would not exceed the
      Maximum Percentage Factor, as determined by reference to the most recent
      Portfolio Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement (which Portfolio
      Report shall contain information as of a date not more than five Business
      Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date) and (2) in the good faith
      judgment of the Collection Agent, the Percentage Factor would not exceed
      the Maximum Percentage Factor, as determined by

                                       36
<PAGE>

      reference to the most recent information then available to the Collection
      Agent. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the
      Borrower.

            (b) Conduit Lender Acceptance or Rejection. If a Conduit Lender
shall receive a Borrowing Request on a day prior to its Conduit Lender
Termination Date, such Conduit Lender shall instruct the related Funding Agent
to accept or reject such request by giving notice to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent through telephone or facsimile by no later than the close
of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the applicable Borrowing
Date. If a Conduit Lender rejects a Borrowing Request, the related Funding Agent
shall promptly notify the related Committed Lenders of such rejection. At no
time will a Conduit Lender be obligated to make Loans hereunder regardless of
any notice given by it pursuant to this Section.

            (c) Committed Lender's Commitment.

                  (i) If a Conduit Lender rejects a Borrowing Request, or if the
            Conduit Lender Termination Date has occurred for a Conduit Lender,
            any Loan requested by the Borrower in such Borrowing Request that
            would otherwise be made by such Conduit Lender shall be made by the
            related Committed Lenders in its Lender Group on a pro rata basis in
            accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of such Loan.

                  (ii) The obligations of any Committed Lender to make Loans
            hereunder are several from the obligations of any other Committed
            Lenders (whether or not in the same Lender Group). The failure of
            any Committed Lender to make Loans hereunder shall not release the
            obligations of any other Committed Lender (whether or not in the
            same Lender Group) to make Loans hereunder, but no Committed Lender
            shall be responsible for the failure of any other Committed Lender
            to make any Loan hereunder.

                  (iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a
            Committed Lender shall not be obligated to fund any Loan at any time
            on or after the Termination Date or if, after giving effect thereto,
            the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans funded by
            such Committed Lender hereunder would exceed an amount equal to (i)
            such Committed Lender's Commitment divided by 1.02 less (ii) such
            Committed Lender's ratable share of the aggregate outstanding
            principal balance of the Loans held by the Conduit Lender in such
            Committed Lender's Lender Group.

            (d) Disbursement of Funds. On each Borrowing Date, each applicable
Lender shall remit its share of the aggregate amount of the Loans requested by
the Borrower to the account of its related Funding Agent specified therefor to
such Lender by wire transfer of same day funds. Upon receipt of such funds, each
Funding Agent shall remit such funds to the account specified by the Borrower in
the relevant Borrowing Request by wire transfer of same day funds.

                                       37
<PAGE>

            SECTION 2.03 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of
the Loans only to (i) pay the purchase price for Receivables sold to it pursuant
to the terms of the Transfer Agreement, (ii) pay transaction costs incurred in
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents and (iii) fund payments of interest and principal with
respect to the Intercompany Note.

            SECTION 2.04 Interest and Fees.

            (a) On each Settlement Date for a Tranche, the Borrower shall pay to
the relevant Funding Agent all accrued and unpaid Interest with respect to such
Tranche.

            (b) The Collection Agent shall be entitled to receive a fee (the
"Servicing Fee") on the average daily Outstanding Balance of the Pool
Receivables, payable in arrears on each Servicing Fee Payment Date at a rate per
annum equal to the Servicing Fee Percentage. Upon three Business Days' notice to
the Funding Agents, the Collection Agent (if not an Originator, the Borrower or
its designee or an Affiliate of the Borrower or an Originator) may, with the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Committed
Lenders, elect to be paid, as such fee, another percentage per annum on the
average daily Outstanding Balance of the Pool Receivables. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Servicing Fee shall be payable only from
Collections pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payments set forth in,
Sections 2.06 and 2.07. To the extent such Collections are not sufficient to pay
the Servicing Fee in full, none of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Funding Agents or the Lenders shall have any liability for the deficiency.

            (c) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and each
Funding Agent certain fees (collectively, the "Fees") in the amounts and on the
dates set forth in (i) the fee agreement of even date herewith between the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent (as the same may be amended or restated
from time to time, the "Administrative Agent Fee Letter") and (ii) the amended
and restated fee agreement of even date among the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the Funding Agents (as the same may be further amended or restated
from time to time, the "Lender Fee Letter").

            (d) On or before the Business Day immediately before the end of each
Tranche Period, the relevant Funding Agent shall furnish the Borrower with an
invoice setting forth the amount of the accrued and unpaid Interest and Fees for
such Tranche Period with respect to the Tranches held by the Lender(s) in such
Funding Agent's Lender Group. To the extent necessary, such Interest shall be
calculated using an estimate of the CP Rate for the remaining days in such
Tranche Period, provided that such Interest shall be adjusted as follows: if the
Funding Agent shall have used an estimate of the CP Rate with respect to the
preceding Tranche Period, the Funding Agent shall compute the actual CP Rate and
Interest for such Tranche Period and (i) if the actual Interest so computed is
greater than the estimated Interest calculated for such preceding Tranche
Period, the Interest calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence for the
current Tranche Period shall be increased by the amount of such difference, and
(ii) if the actual Interest so computed is less than the estimated Interest for
such preceding Tranche Period, the Interest calculated pursuant to the preceding
sentence for the current Tranche Period shall be decreased by the amount of such
difference.

                                       38

            SECTION 2.05 Payment and Prepayment of Loans. The Borrower shall
repay the outstanding principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date. Prior
thereto, the Borrower:

            (a) shall, immediately upon any acceleration of the Loans pursuant
to Section 7.02, repay the amount of the Loans to the extent so accelerated;

            (b) shall, if on any date the Percentage Factor exceeds the Maximum
Percentage Factor, as determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio
Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement, make a prepayment of the Loans
on such date in an amount sufficient to cause the Percentage Factor to be less
than or equal to the Maximum Percentage Factor, as determined by reference to
such Portfolio Report;

            (c) shall, if on any date the Aggregate Principal Balance of the
Loans exceeds the Facility Limit, make a prepayment of the Loans on such date in
an amount sufficient to cause the Aggregate Principal Balance to be less than or
equal to the Facility Limit, such prepayment to be made solely out of
Collections available for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.07, as
applicable; and

            (d) from and after the Termination Date, shall repay the Loans out
of Collections available for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.07.

The Borrower may, at its option, prepay on any Business Day all or any portion
of the Loans upon prior written notice delivered to each Funding Agent not later
than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) three Business Days prior to the date of
such payment, in the case of Loans accruing interest by reference to the
Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, and no later than 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) two
Business Days prior to the date of such payment, in the case of Loans of any
other Rate Type. Each such notice shall be in the form attached as Exhibit I and
shall (i) specify the aggregate amount of the prepayment to be made on the Loans
and the Tranches to which such prepayment is to be applied and (ii) specify the
Business Day on which the Borrower will make such prepayment. Each such
prepayment shall be made ratably among the Lender Groups based on the aggregate
outstanding Principal Balance of the Loans held by each. Each prepayment of the
Loans (whether optional or mandatory) must be accompanied by a payment of all
accrued and unpaid Interest on the amount prepaid and any other amounts
(including amounts payable under Section 2.11) due hereunder in respect of such
prepayment. No optional prepayment shall be made by the Borrower hereunder
except out of Collections.

            SECTION 2.06 Application of Collections Prior to Termination Date.

            (a) On each Business Day prior to the Termination Date, the
Collection Agent shall cause all Collections deposited into any Collection
Account or otherwise received prior to such Business Day to be remitted to the
Concentration Account.

            (b) On each Business Day prior to the Termination Date, the
Collection Agent shall cause all Collections on deposit in the Concentration
Account (including, if applicable, any investment earnings received with respect
to funds on deposit in the Concentration Account) to be applied in the following
order and priority:

                                       39
<PAGE>

                  (i) on a pro rata basis, set aside and hold in trust for the
            Lenders, the Funding Agents, the Administrative Agent, the Hedge
            Counterparties and the Collection Agent an amount equal to the
            aggregate Interest, Fees, Credit Default Swap Obligations and
            Servicing Fee accrued through such day and not previously set aside,
            such amount to be allocated among the Lenders, the Funding Agents,
            the Administrative Agent, the Hedge Counterparties and the
            Collection Agent ratably in accordance with the proportion of such
            amounts owing to each such Person;

                  (ii) if the Percentage Factor exceeds the Maximum Percentage
            Factor as determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio
            Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement, or the Aggregate
            Principal Balance exceeds the Facility Limit, deposit to the
            Collateral Account an amount necessary to cause the Percentage
            Factor to be less than or equal to the Maximum Percentage Factor, as
            determined by reference to such Portfolio Report, and the Aggregate
            Principal Balance to be less than or equal to the Facility Limit;

                  (iii) if any Borrower Obligations (other than Interest, the
            Servicing Fee and Loans) are then due and payable by the Borrower to
            any Secured Party, pay to each such Secured Party (ratably in
            accordance with the amounts owing to each) the Borrower Obligations
            so due and payable;

                  (iv) [Reserved]; and

                  (v) apply any remaining Collections in accordance with Section
            2.06(h) (any such remittance, a "Release"); provided that, if the
            conditions precedent for such Release set forth in Section 3.02 are
            not satisfied, the Collection Agent shall retain such Collections in
            the Concentration Account and shall apply such Collections in
            accordance with this Section 2.06 on the next Business Day.

            (c) On each Settlement Date for a Tranche, the Collection Agent
shall pay to the relevant Lender(s) all Collections set aside for Interest in
respect of such Tranche pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(i). On each date on which
any Fees are payable pursuant to the Fee Letters, the Collection Agent shall pay
such Fees to the Persons entitled thereto pursuant to the Fee Letters out of
Collections set aside for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(i). On each
date on which any Credit Default Swap Obligations are payable pursuant to the
terms of the Credit Default Swaps, the Collection Agent shall pay such Credit
Default Swap Obligations to the Hedge Counterparties entitled thereto out of
Collections set aside for such purpose pursuant to Sections 2.06(b)(i) and
(iii).

            (d) [Reserved].

            (e) In the event any deposit is made to the Collateral Account
pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii), the amount of such deposit shall be allocated
among all Lender Groups ratably in proportion to the outstanding principal
balance of the Loans held by each. On the next Settlement Date applicable to any
such Lender Group, the Administrative Agent shall distribute

                                       40
<PAGE>

to the related Funding Agent such Lender Group's allocable share of such deposit
for application to the repayment of the Loans held by such Lender Group.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Business Day after such deposit is made
and prior to the distribution of such deposit pursuant to this Section 2.06(e),
the Collection Agent delivers a Portfolio Report with more recent data
indicating that the Percentage Factor is less than the Maximum Percentage
Factor, the Collection Agent may request the Administrative Agent to withdraw
the Collections so deposited for application in accordance with Section 2.06(b)
to the extent that, after giving effect to such withdrawal and application, the
Percentage Factor would not exceed the Maximum Percentage Factor, as determined
by reference to such Portfolio Report.

            (f) On each Servicing Fee Payment Date, the Collection Agent shall
pay to itself the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee out of Collections set aside
for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(i).

            (g) So long as no Termination Event or Involuntary Bankruptcy Event
has occurred and is continuing, and the Parent Guarantor has a published Debt
Rating of B or better from S&P and B2 or better from Moody's, the Collection
Agent shall not be required to segregate any Collections set aside by it
pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(i) from its other funds. At all other times, the
Collection Agent shall segregate such Collections from its other funds by
retaining the amount of such Collections in the Concentration Account.

            (h) Any Collections available pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(v) shall
be applied by the Collection Agent, on behalf of the Borrower: (i) first, if so
requested by the Borrower, to pay or prepay (or set aside for the payment or
prepayment of) Loans or other Borrower Obligations, (ii) second, to pay the
purchase price for Receivables to be acquired by the Borrower from the
Transferor under the Transfer Agreement, (iii) third, to make payments of
principal and interest in respect of the Intercompany Note, and (iv) fourth, to
invest in Permitted Investments, to pay other expenses and obligations as
required under the Borrower's limited liability company agreement, to pay
dividends to the Borrower's members and in such other manner as the Borrower may
specify and that is permitted under the terms of the Transaction Documents.
Unless otherwise specifically directed by the Borrower, the Collection Agent
shall cause all Collections available pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(v) to be
released to the Seller Agent under (and as defined in) the Originator Purchase
Agreement on a daily basis, and the Collections so released to the Seller Agent
will be deemed to be applied in accordance with this Section 2.06(h). On or
prior to each Monthly Reporting Date the Collection Agent shall determine the
portion of the Collections so released which were applied to each of the items
described in clauses (i) through (iv) above during the related Calculation
Period and shall record the same in its books and records.

            SECTION 2.07 Application of Collections After Termination Date.

            (a) On each Business Day on and after the Termination Date, the
Collection Agent shall cause all Collections deposited into any Collection
Account or otherwise received prior to such Business Day to be remitted to the
Concentration Account.

            (b) On the Termination Date, and on each Business Day thereafter
until the Final Payout Date, the Collection Agent shall transfer to the
Collateral Account all Collections

                                       41
<PAGE>

on deposit in the Concentration Account or otherwise held by it on such date
(including amounts previously set aside pursuant to Section 2.06(b)).

            (c) On each Settlement Date to occur on or after the Termination
Date, the Administrative Agent shall distribute all funds on deposit in the
Collateral Account (including, without limitation, any investment earnings
received with respect to such funds) in the following order of priority:

            (i) first, pay, to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the
      Borrower Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent in respect of costs
      and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any
      Transaction Document or the collection of any amounts due thereunder;

            (ii) second, if the Collection Agent is a Person other than TRW
      Automotive U.S. LLC or an Affiliate thereof, pay to the Collection Agent
      the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee;

            (iii) third, pay to the Lenders, the Funding Agents and the
      Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate accrued and unpaid
      Interest on the Loans and Fees (ratably in accordance with the proportion
      of such amounts owing to each such Person);

            (iv) fourth, pay to the Lenders an amount equal to the aggregate
      Principal Balance of the Loans (ratably in accordance with the outstanding
      principal balance of such Loans held by each);

            (v) fifth, if any Borrower Obligations (other than Interest, Fees,
      the Servicing Fee and the Loans) are then due and payable by the Borrower
      to any Secured Party, pay to each such Secured Party (ratably in
      accordance with the amounts owing to each) the Borrower Obligations so due
      and payable;

            (vi) sixth, [Reserved]

            (vii) seventh, if the Collection Agent is TRW Automotive U.S. LLC or
      an Affiliate thereof, pay to the Collection Agent the accrued and unpaid
      Servicing Fee; and

            (viii) eighth, after all Borrower Obligations are paid in full, pay
      to the Borrower any remaining funds in accordance with Section 2.07(e).

            (d) [Reserved].

            (e) Any Collections remitted to the Borrower pursuant to Section
2.07(c)(viii) shall be applied by the Collection Agent, on behalf of the
Borrower: (i) first, to make payments of principal and interest in respect of
the Intercompany Note, and (ii) second, in such other manner as the Borrower may
specify and that is not prohibited by the terms of the Transaction Documents.

            SECTION 2.08 Deemed Collections; Application of Payments.

                                       42
<PAGE>

            (a) Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, and unless an
Obligor designates a payment be applied to a specific Receivable, all
Collections from an Obligor shall be applied to the oldest Receivables (whether
or not such Receivables are Pool Receivables) of such Obligor.

            (b) If and to the extent the Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent
or any Lender shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor any
amount received on its behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have
been so received but rather to have been retained by the Borrower and,
accordingly, the Administrative Agent, such Funding Agent or such Lender, as the
case may be, shall have a claim against the Borrower for such amount, payable
when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor
is made in respect thereof.

            (c) If on any day a Receivable becomes a Diluted Receivable, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such
Receivable in the amount of the applicable reduction or cancellation, and the
Borrower shall pay to the Collection Agent an amount equal to such reduction or
cancellation; provided that, prior to the Termination Date and so long as no
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and the Percentage Factor is
less than or equal to the Maximum Percentage Factor (determined by reference to
the most recent Portfolio Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement), the
amount so payable by the Borrower shall not exceed the amount (if any) required
in order to cause (i) the Percentage Factor to be less than or equal to the
Maximum Percentage Factor, determined by reference to such Portfolio Report and
(ii) the Aggregate Principal Balance to be less than or equal to the Facility
Limit. Any such amount shall be applied by the Collection Agent as a Collection
in accordance with Section 2.06 or 2.07 hereof, as applicable.

            (d) If on any day any of the representations or warranties in
Article IV was or becomes untrue with respect to a Receivable or the nature of
the Administrative Agent's interest therein, the Borrower shall be deemed to
have received on such day a Collection of such Receivable in full and the
Borrower shall, on such day, pay to the Collection Agent an amount equal to the
Outstanding Balance of such Receivable; provided that, prior to the Termination
Date and so long as no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and the
Percentage Factor is less than or equal to the Maximum Percentage Factor
(determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio Report delivered under the
Servicing Agreement), the amount so payable by the Borrower shall not exceed the
amount (if any) required in order to cause (i) the Percentage Factor to be less
than or equal to the Maximum Percentage Factor, determined by reference to such
Portfolio Report and (ii) the Aggregate Principal Balance to be less than or
equal to the Facility Limit. Any such amount shall be allocated and applied by
the Collection Agent as a Collection in accordance with Section 2.06 or 2.07
hereof, as applicable.

            SECTION 2.09 Payments and Computations, Etc.

            (a) All amounts to be paid by the Borrower or the Collection Agent
to the Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent or any Lender hereunder shall be
paid no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in same
day funds to the applicable Funding Agent's Account. All amounts to be deposited
by the Borrower or the Collection Agent

                                       43
<PAGE>

into the Collateral Account, any Funding Agent's Account or any other account
shall be deposited no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date
when due.

            (b) Each of the Borrower and the Collection Agent shall, to the
extent permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by it
when due hereunder (after as well as before judgment), at an interest rate per
annum equal to 2.00% per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand.

            (c) All computations of Interest, Fees, and other amounts hereunder
shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days
(including the first but excluding the date of payment) elapsed, except that
computations of interest and Interest based on clause (i)(b)(A) of the
definition of Base Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days (or
366, as applicable). Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall
be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made
on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included
in the computation of such payment or deposit. Any computations by the
Administrative Agent or the applicable Funding Agent of amounts payable by the
Borrower hereunder shall be binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error.

            (d) All payments required to be made hereunder to any Lender shall
be made by paying such amount to the applicable Funding Agent's Account in
accordance with this Section 2.09. Upon receipt of funds, such Funding Agent
shall pay such funds to the related Lender(s) owed such funds in accordance with
the records maintained by such Funding Agent. If a Funding Agent shall have paid
to any Lender any funds that (i) must be returned for any reason (including any
Event of Bankruptcy) or (ii) exceeds that which such Lender was entitled to
receive, such amount shall be promptly repaid to such Funding Agent by such
Lender.

            (e) All payments of principal and interest in respect of any Tranche
and all other payments to be made by the Collection Agent or the Borrower
hereunder shall be made solely in Dollars.

            SECTION 2.10 Tranches. Each Loan made by the Lenders in the same
Lender Group on any Borrowing Date shall be allocated to one or more "Tranche
Periods" as set forth in the definition of such term. Any portion of a Loan
having one Tranche Period and one Rate Type is referred to herein as a
"Tranche". Either the Borrower or (following a Termination Event or an Incipient
Termination Event) the Funding Agent for the applicable Lender Group may, upon
notice to the other party received at least three Business Days prior to the
last day of any Tranche Period in the case of the Borrower giving notice, or up
to the last day of such Tranche Period in the case of the Funding Agent giving
notice, either (i) divide any Tranche originating on such last day or having a
Tranche Period ending on such last day into two or more Tranches having an
aggregate Principal Balance equal to the Principal Balance of such divided
Tranche, or (ii) combine any two or more Tranches originating on such last day
or having Tranche Periods ending on such last day into a single Tranche having a
Principal Balance equal to the aggregate of the Principal Balance of such
Tranches; provided, however, that no Tranche owned by any Conduit Lender may be
combined with a Tranche owned by any other Lender and a Tranche held by the
Committed Lenders in any Lender Group may not be combined with any Tranche held
by the Committed Lenders in any other Lender Group.

            SECTION 2.11 Breakage Costs.

            (a) The Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders and any related Program
Support Provider against any loss or expense incurred by the Lenders and such
Program Support Providers, either directly or indirectly, as a result of the
failure of any Borrowing (other than a Borrowing of Loans, the Interest Rate for
which was to be determined by reference to the Base Rate) to be made for any
reason on the date specified by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02, including
any loss or expense incurred by the Lenders by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of funds acquired by the Lenders (including funds obtained by
issuing Commercial Paper, obtaining deposits as loans from third parties and
reemployment of funds) to fund such Borrowing.

            (b) The Borrower further agrees to pay all Liquidation Fees
associated with a reduction of the Principal Balance of any Tranche at any time.

            (c) A certificate as to any loss, expense or Liquidation Fees
payable pursuant to this Section 2.11 submitted by any Lender, through its
Funding Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error.

            SECTION 2.12 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if the adoption of or any change in any Law or in the interpretation
or application thereof by any relevant Official Body shall make it unlawful for
any Lender to make or maintain Tranches for which Interest is calculated by
reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate (each a "Eurodollar Tranche") as
contemplated by this Agreement or to obtain in the interbank Eurodollar market
the funds with which to make or maintain any such Eurodollar Tranche, (a) such
Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, its Funding Agent and the
Borrower thereof, (b) the obligation of such Lender to fund or maintain
Eurodollar Tranches or continue Eurodollar Tranches as such shall forthwith be
cancelled and (c) such Lender's Tranches then outstanding as Eurodollar
Tranches, if any, shall be converted on the last day of the Tranche Period for
such Tranches or within such earlier period as required by Law into Tranche that
accrue Interest based on the Base Rate (each a "Base Rate Tranche").

            SECTION 2.13 Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rate. If prior to the
commencement of any Tranche Period for a Eurodollar Tranche:

            (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall
be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as
applicable, for such Tranche Period; or

            (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Committed
Lenders that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable,
for such Tranche Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Lenders of making or maintaining the related Tranche for such Tranche Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and each
Funding Agent by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter
and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and each Funding Agent
that the circumstances giving rise to such

                                       45
<PAGE>

notice no longer exist, (i) any request to convert a Tranche to, or to continue
any Tranche as, a Eurodollar Tranche shall be ineffective and such Tranche shall
be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Tranche Period applicable
thereto, a Base Rate Tranche and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a
Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Tranche.

            SECTION 2.14 Indemnity for Reserves and Expenses.

            (a) If any Change in Law shall:

                  (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special
            deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
            for the account of, or credit extended by, any Indemnified Party
            (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted
            Eurodollar Rate); or

                  (ii) impose on any Indemnified Party any other condition
            affecting this Agreement, any Asset Purchase Agreement, any Program
            Support Agreement or any other Transaction Document or Eurodollar
            Tranches made or maintained by such Indemnified Party;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Indemnified Party of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Tranche (or of
maintaining its obligation to fund any such Tranche or its obligations under any
Program Support Agreement or Asset Purchase Agreement) or to reduce the amount
of any sum received or receivable by such Indemnified Party hereunder (whether
of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such
Indemnified Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Indemnified Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

            (b) Subject to the limitations set forth in the Lender Fee Letter,
if any Indemnified Party determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Indemnified Party's capital or on the capital of such Indemnified Party's
holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, any Asset Purchase
Agreement or any Program Support Agreement or the Loans made or acquired by such
Indemnified Party, to a level below that which such Indemnified Party or holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such Indemnified Party's policies and the policies of such
Indemnified Party's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from
time to time the Borrower will pay to such Indemnified Party such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party or such Indemnified
Party's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

            (c) A certificate of an Indemnified Party setting forth the amount
or amounts necessary to compensate such Indemnified Party or its holding
company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section
shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. The Borrower shall pay such Indemnified Party the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

            (d) Promptly after any Indemnified Party has determined that it will
make a request for compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Indemnified
Party shall notify the

                                       46
<PAGE>

Borrower of such determination. Failure or delay on the part of any Indemnified
Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a
waiver of such Indemnified Party's right to demand such compensation; provided
that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate an Indemnified Party
pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more
than 180 days prior to the date that such Indemnified Party notifies the
Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such Indemnified Party's intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

            SECTION 2.15 Indemnity for Taxes.

            (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be
required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section) the recipient of such payment receives an amount equal to
the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the
Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable law.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable law.

            (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Indemnified Party within 10
days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes paid by such Indemnified Party on or with respect to any payment
by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or
liability delivered to the Borrower by an Indemnified Party, or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf
of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

            (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body, the Borrower shall deliver to
the related Funding Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued
by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such
Funding Agent.

            (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the
Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with
respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable

                                       47
<PAGE>

law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be
made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

            (f) If an Indemnified Party determines, in its sole discretion, that
it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund
to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.15 with respect to
the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket
expenses of such Indemnified Party and without interest (other than any interest
paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to such refund); provided that
the Borrower, upon the request of such Indemnified Party, agrees to repay the
amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Official Body) to such Indemnified Party in the event
such Indemnified Party is required to repay such refund to such Official Body.
This Section shall not be construed to require any Indemnified Party to make
available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which
it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

            SECTION 2.16 Security Interest. As security for the performance by
the Borrower of all the terms, covenants and agreements on the part of the
Borrower to be performed under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document,
including the punctual payment when due of all Borrower Obligations, the
Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, a security interest in, all of the Borrower's right, title and
interest in and to the following (collectively, the "Collateral"):

            (a) all Receivables, whether now owned and existing or hereafter
acquired or arising, together with all Related Security and Collections with
respect thereto;

            (c) the Originator Purchase Agreement, the Transfer Agreement, the
Servicing Agreement, the Performance Guaranty, the Credit Default Swaps and the
Control Agreements (collectively, the "Collateral Agreements"), including,
without limitation, (i) all rights of the Borrower to receive moneys due or to
become due under or pursuant to the Collateral Agreements, (ii) all security
interests and property subject thereto from time to time purporting to secure
payment of monies due or to become due under or pursuant to the Collateral
Agreements, (iii) all rights of the Borrower to receive proceeds of any
insurance, indemnity, warranty or guaranty with respect to the Collateral
Agreements, (iv) all claims of the Borrower for damages arising out of or for
breach of or default under the Collateral Agreements, and (v) the right to
compel performance and otherwise exercise all remedies and enforce all rights
under the Collateral Agreements;

            (d) the Collection Accounts, the Concentration Account, any Credit
Default Collateral Accounts (as defined in the Transfer Agreement), the Credit
Default Premium Reserve Account and the Collateral Account, including, without
limitation, (i) all funds and other evidences of payment held therein and all
certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or
evidencing any of such accounts or any funds and other evidences of payment

                                       48
<PAGE>

held therein, (ii) all investment property and other financial assets
held in, or acquired with funds from, such accounts and all certificates and

exchange for any and all of such accounts;

            (e) all other assets of the Borrower, whether now owned and existing

as in effect on the date hereof in the State of New York) in which the Borrower
has any interest; and

            (f) to the extent not included in the foregoing, all Proceeds of any
and all of the foregoing.

            SECTION 2.17 [Reserved].

            SECTION 2.18 [Reserved].

            SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

            (a) If any Committed Lender requests compensation under Section
2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Committed Lender or any Official Body for the account of any Committed Lender
pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Committed Lender shall use reasonable
efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans
hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such
Committed Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15, as applicable, in the future
and (ii) would not subject such Committed Lender or its related Conduit Lender
to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Committed Lender or its related Conduit Lender in any
material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Committed Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.

            (b) If any Lender in a Lender Group requests compensation under
Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to
such Lender or any Official Body for the account of such Lender pursuant to
Section 2.15, or if such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may,
at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender, the related Funding
Agent and the Administrative Agent, (i) if such Lender is a Committed Lender,
require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with
and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.03), all its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee acceptable
to the related Funding Agent that shall assume such obligations (which assignee
may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (ii) require all
Lenders in such Lender Group to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
accordance with an subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.03), all
their interests,

                                       49

rights and obligations under this Agreement to assignees selected by the
Borrower; provided that, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii), that (x) the
Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (y) the assigning
Lender(s) shall have received payment of an amount equal to the aggregate
outstanding Principal Balance of their respective Loans, accrued Interest
thereon through the last day of the Tranche Periods therefor, accrued Fees and
all other amounts payable to them hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of
such outstanding Principal Balance and accrued Interest and Fees) or the
Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (z) in the case of any such
assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. Nothing in this Section
2.19 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against
any Committed Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.

            Commercial Paper; and

                  (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or
            before the date hereof all of the instruments, documents,
            agreements, certificates and opinions specified on Schedule IV or

                  (i) The representations and warranties contained in Section

            as of such date, except that the representations and warranties set
            forth in Sections 4.01(e), (f) and (q)(i) shall be required to be
            true and correct only as of each Borrowing Date and each Reporting
            Date,

                  (ii) No event has occurred and is continuing, or would result
            from such Borrowing or Release, that constitutes a Termination

                                   ARTICLE IV

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

            SECTION 4.01 Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The
Borrower hereby represents and warrants as follows as of the date hereof and as
of the date of each Borrowing and each Release hereunder and as of each
Reporting Date (except that the representations and warranties set forth in
paragraphs (e), (f) and (q)(i) below shall be made solely on the date of each
Borrowing and each Reporting Date):

            (a) The Borrower is a limited liability company duly formed, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, and is duly qualified
to do business, and is in good standing, in every jurisdiction where the nature
of its business requires it to be so qualified, unless the failure to so qualify
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the
Transaction Documents, including the Borrower's use of the proceeds of Loans,
(i) are within the Borrower's limited liability company powers, (ii) have been
duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action, (iii) do not
contravene (A) the Borrower's certificate of formation or limited liability
company agreement, (B) any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Borrower,
(C) any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Borrower or its
property or (D) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding
on or affecting the Borrower or its property, where any such contravention
described in this clause (iii) could reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and (iv) do not
result in or require the creation of any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to
any of its properties (except as created pursuant to the Transaction Documents).
Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly executed and delivered by the
Borrower.

            (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice
to or filing with, any Official Body is required for the due execution, delivery
and performance by the

                                       51
<PAGE>

Borrower of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party or any other
document to be delivered thereunder, except for the filing of UCC financing
statements referred to on Schedule IV.

            (d) Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is a
party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to the
effects of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, (ii)
general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law and (iii) implied covenants of
good faith and fair dealing.

            (e) Since December 31, 2003 there has been no event or circumstance
which has had or that is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (f) As of each Borrowing Date and Reporting Date, there are no
actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any Official
Body or in arbitration, to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower, threatened in writing against or affecting the Borrower or any of its
business, property or rights which in either case, (i) involve the Transaction
Documents or the Transactions (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement as in
effect on the date hereof) or (ii) as to which an adverse determination is
reasonably probable and which could reasonably be expected to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or materially and adversely
effect the Transactions. The Borrower is not in default of any order of any
Official Body where such default could reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

            (g) No proceeds of any Borrowing will be used to purchase or carry,
or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying, "margin
stock" within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X promulgated by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System from time to time.

            (h) Each Receivable treated as or represented to be a Pool
Receivable is owned by the Borrower free and clear of any Adverse Claim (other
than Permitted Adverse Claims). The Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, has a valid and perfected first priority security interest in
each Pool Receivable now existing or hereafter arising and in the Related
Security and Collections with respect thereto and all other Collateral, in each
case free and clear of any Adverse Claim (other than Permitted Adverse Claims).
No effective financing statement or other instrument similar in effect is filed
in any recording office listing the Borrower, the Transferor or any Originator
as debtor, covering any Pool Receivable, Related Security or other Collateral
except such as (i) may be filed in favor of the Administrative Agent in
accordance with this Agreement and (ii) as may be filed in favor of the Borrower
or the Transferor and assigned to the Administrative Agent in accordance with
this Agreement and the Transfer Agreement.

            (i) Each Portfolio Report (if prepared by any Transaction Party or
one of their respective Affiliates, or to the extent that information contained
therein is supplied by any Transaction Party or an Affiliate), information,
exhibit, document, book, record or report

                                       52
<PAGE>

furnished in writing at any time by or on behalf of any Transaction Party to the
Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent or any Lender in connection with this
Agreement is accurate in all material respects as of its date or (except as
otherwise disclosed to the Administrative Agent, such Funding Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, at such time) as of the date so furnished. The
Information Memorandum is accurate in all material respects as of its date and
does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All
financial statements and other financial data which have been or shall hereafter
be furnished by any Transaction Party fairly present, and will fairly present,
in all material respects, the financial condition of the applicable Transaction
Party and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates set forth therein and
the results of operations of such Transaction Party and its consolidated
subsidiaries for the periods ended on such dates.

            (j) The Borrower is located in the State of Delaware for the
purposes of Section 9-307 of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York.

            (k) The names and addresses of all the Collection Account Banks and
the Concentration Account Bank together with the account numbers of the
Collection Accounts and the Concentration Account at such Collection Account
Banks and the Concentration Account Bank are as specified in Schedule V hereto,
as such Schedule V may be updated from time to time pursuant to Section 5.01(g).

            (l) Since its formation, the Borrower has not used any company name,
tradename or doing-business-as name other than the name in which it has executed
this Agreement. The Borrower's Federal Employer Identification Number is
57-1140153.

            (m) The Borrower was formed on February 20, 2003 and the Borrower
did not engage in any business activities prior to the date of the Existing Loan
Agreement. The Borrower has no Subsidiaries. The Transferor directly owns 100%
of the membership interests of the Borrower, free and clear of any Adverse
Claims.

            (n) The Borrower is not an "investment company" as defined in, or
subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

            (o) (i) The fair value of the assets of the Borrower, at a fair
valuation, exceed the debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or
otherwise, of the Borrower; (ii) the present fair saleable value of the property
of the Borrower is greater than the amount that will be required to pay the
probable liabilities of the Borrower on its debts and other liabilities, direct,
subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities
become absolute and matured; (iii) the Borrower will be able to pay its debts
and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts
and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (iv) the Borrower will not have
unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which it is
engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted
following the Closing Date. The Borrower does not intend to, and does not
believe that it will, incur debts or liabilities beyond its ability to pay such
debts and liabilities as they mature, taking into account the timing and amounts
of cash to be received by it and the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on
or in respect of its Indebtedness.

                                       53
<PAGE>

            (p) With respect to each Receivable treated as or represented to be
a Pool Receivable, the Transferor purchased such Receivable from the applicable
Originator in exchange for payment (made by the Transferor to such Originator in
accordance with the provisions of the Originator Purchase Agreement) of cash, an
addition to the principal amount of the Intercompany Note, or a combination
thereof in an amount which constitutes fair consideration and reasonably
equivalent value. With respect to each Receivable acquired by the Borrower from
the Transferor, such Receivable has been acquired by the Borrower from the
Transferor in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Agreement. Each such
purchase referred to above shall not have been made for or on account of an
antecedent debt owed by the applicable Originator to the Transferor, or by the
Transferor to the Borrower, as the case may be, and no such sale is or may be
voidable or subject to avoidance under any section of the United States
Bankruptcy Code or any other Law, whether foreign or domestic.

            (q) (i) The Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates are in compliance with
the applicable provisions of ERISA and the provisions of the IRC relating to
Plans and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder and any
similar applicable non-U.S. law, except for such noncompliance that could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Reportable Event
has occurred during the past five years as to which the Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate was required to file a report with the PBGC, other than reports that
have been filed and reports the failure of which to file could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Amendment Effective Date,
the present value of all benefit liabilities under each Plan of the Borrower and
the ERISA Affiliates (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan), as of
the last annual valuation date applicable thereto for which a valuation is
available, did not exceed the value of the assets of such Plan by an amount that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the present
value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on those
assumptions used to fund each such Plan), as of the last annual valuation dates
applicable thereto for which valuations are available, did not exceed the value
of the assets of all such underfunded Plans by an amount that could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Borrower and the
ERISA Affiliates has incurred or could reasonably be expected to incur any
Withdrawal Liability that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. None of the Borrower and the ERISA Affiliates has received any
written notification that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or has
been terminated within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, or has knowledge that
any Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be
terminated, where such reorganization or termination has had or could reasonably
be expected to have, through increases in the contributions required to be made
to such Plan or otherwise, a Material Adverse Effect. (ii) No Adverse Claim
exists in favor of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation on any of the
Collateral.

            (r) Each Receivable included in the calculation of the Net
Receivables Balance on any date shall be an Eligible Receivable as of such date.

            (s) No event has occurred and is continuing and no condition exists
which constitutes a Termination Event.

                                    COVENANTS

            SECTION 5.01 Covenants of the Borrower. Until the Final Payout Date:

            (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. The Borrower will comply in all
respects with all applicable Laws and preserve and maintain its limited
liability company existence, rights, franchises, qualifications, and privileges
except to the extent that the failure so to comply with such Laws or the failure
so to preserve and maintain such rights, franchises, qualifications, and
privileges would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (b) Offices, Records and Books of Account. The Borrower will keep
its office where it keeps its records concerning the Pool Receivables at (i) the
address of the Borrower specified in Section 11.02 as of the date of this
Agreement or (ii) upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent
and each Funding Agent, at any other locations in jurisdictions where all
actions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to protect and perfect
its security interest in the Collateral have been taken and completed. The
Borrower also will maintain and implement administrative and operating
procedures (including, without limitation, an ability to recreate records
evidencing Pool Receivables and related Contracts in the event of the
destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and maintain all documents,
books, records and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the
collection of all Pool Receivables (including, without limitation, records
adequate to permit the daily identification of each Pool Receivable and all
Collections of and adjustments to each existing Pool Receivable).

            (c) Performance and Compliance with Contracts and Credit and
Collection Policy. The Borrower will, at its expense, (i) timely and fully
perform and comply in all material respects with all provisions, covenants and
other promises (if any) required to be observed by it under the Contracts
related to the Pool Receivables in the same manner as if this Agreement did not
exist and (ii) timely and fully comply in all material respects with the Credit
and Collection Policy (as amended from time to time in accordance with the terms
hereof).

            (d) Sales, Liens, Etc. The Borrower will not sell, assign (by
operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or create or suffer to
exist any Adverse Claim (except for Permitted Adverse Claims) upon or with
respect to, any Collateral or any other asset of the Borrower, or assign any
right to receive income in respect thereof. Nothing in this Section 5.01(d)
shall prevent the Borrower from making Restricted Payments otherwise permitted
under Section 5.01(o).

            (e) Extension or Amendment of Receivables and Contracts. Except as
provided in Section 2.2(c) of the Servicing Agreement, the Borrower will not
extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Pool Receivable or amend,
modify or waive any term or condition of any Contract related thereto in a
manner that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the collectibility
of such Pool Receivable.

            (f) Change in Business or Credit and Collection Policy. The Borrower
will not make any change in the character of its business or in the Credit and
Collection Policy,

                                       55
<PAGE>

except for any such change in a Credit and Collection Policy that would not (i)
impair the collectibility of any Pool Receivables in any material respect or
(ii) otherwise be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (g) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. The Borrower will
not add or terminate any Collection Account or the Concentration Account from
those listed in Schedule V to this Agreement, or make any change in its
instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made in respect of the
Receivables or payments to be made to any Collection Account or the
Concentration Account, unless the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent
shall have received notice of such addition, termination or change (including an
updated Schedule V) and a fully executed Control Agreement with respect to each
new Collection Account and each new Concentration Account; provided that, the
Collection Account (Lockbox No. 98912; Acct. No. 8188102974) maintained with
Bank of America may be terminated so long as the relevant Obligors are
instructed to make payments to another Collection Account. Each Collection
Account and Concentration Account shall be maintained at all times in the name
of the Transferor.

            (h) Deposits to Collection Accounts and Concentration Account. The
Borrower will cause all Obligors to be instructed to remit all their payments in
respect of Receivables to a Collection Account (either directly by wire transfer
or electronic funds transfer or by check mailed to a lock-box maintained by the
relevant Collection Account Bank). If the Borrower shall receive any Collections
directly, the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within one Business Day)
cause such Collections to be deposited into a Collection Account or the
Concentration Account. The Borrower will use its reasonable best efforts to
prevent funds which do not constitute Collections of Receivables from being
deposited into any Collection Account or the Concentration Account. The Borrower
shall cause each Collection Account Bank to be instructed to remit funds on
deposit in each Collection Account to the Concentration Account on a daily
basis.

            (i) Further Assurances; Change in Name or Jurisdiction of
Organization, etc.

                  (A) The Borrower agrees from time to time, at its expense,
            promptly to execute and deliver all further instruments and
            documents, and to take all further actions, that may be necessary or
            desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request,
            to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Administrative
            Agent's security interest in the Collateral, or to enable the
            Conduit Lenders, the Committed Lenders, the Funding Agents or the
            Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce their respective rights
            and remedies under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing,
            the Borrower will, upon the request of the Administrative Agent,
            execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or
            amendments thereto, and such other instruments and documents, that
            may be necessary or desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may
            reasonably request, to perfect, protect or evidence the
            Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral.

                  (B) The Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to file
            financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto and
            assignments thereof, relating to the Collateral without the
            signature of the Borrower. A

                                       56
<PAGE>

            photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be
            sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.

                  (C) The Borrower will at all times be organized under the laws
            of the State of Delaware and will not take any action to change its
            jurisdiction of organization.

                  (D) The Borrower will not change its name, identity, limited
            liability company structure or tax identification number unless the
            Administrative Agent shall have received at least thirty (30) days
            advance written notice of such change and all action by the Borrower
            necessary or appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of
            the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral
            (including, without limitation, the filing of all financing
            statements and the taking of such other action as the Administrative
            Agent may request in connection with such change) shall have been
            duly taken.

            (j) Reporting Requirements. The Borrower will cause to be provided
to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent the following:

                  (i) Annual Financial Statements: As soon as available, but in
            any event within 90 days after the close of each of the Borrower's
            fiscal years, a copy of the unaudited balance sheet of the Borrower
            as at the end of such year, in each case, together with the related
            statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows of the
            Borrower for such year, setting forth in each case in comparative
            form the figures for the previous year, certified by its chief
            financial officer as having been prepared in accordance with GAAP;

                  (ii) Quarterly Financial Statements. As soon as available, but
            in any event not later than 45 days after the end of each of the
            first three quarterly periods of each fiscal year of the Borrower,
            unaudited balance sheets for the Borrower as at the close of each
            such period and related statements of income, shareholders' equity
            and cash flows in each case for the period from the beginning of
            such fiscal year to the end of such quarter, in each case certified
            by its chief financial officer as having been prepared in accordance
            with GAAP;

                  (iii) Compliance Certificate. At the time of the delivery of
            the financial statements provided for in clause (i) or clause (ii)
            of this Section 5.01(j) of the Borrower, a certificate of a
            Financial Officer of the Borrower, to the effect that, to the best
            of such officer's knowledge, no Termination Event or Incipient
            Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or, if any
            Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event has occurred and is
            continuing, specifying the nature and extent thereof;

                  (iv) Termination Event and Incipient Termination Event. As
            soon as possible and in any event within one Business Day after a
            Responsible Officer of the Borrower obtains actual knowledge of the
            occurrence of any Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event,
            a statement of a Financial Officer of the

                                       57

            at any time during the preceding five years and shall not be as long

            officer, manager, partner, shareholder or employee of the Parent
            Guarantor, any Originator or any of their respective directors,
            members, partners, Subsidiaries, shareholders or Affiliates other

            Parties"), (ii) a supplier to any of the Independent Parties, (iii)
            a person controlling or under common control with any directors,
            members, partners, shareholder or supplier of any of the Independent
            Parties or (iv) a member of the immediate family of any director,
            member, partner, shareholder, officer, manager, employee or supplier
            of the Independent Parties, (B) has prior experience as an
            independent director for a corporation or limited liability company
            whose charter documents required the unanimous consent of all
            independent directors thereof before such corporation or limited
            liability company could consent to the institution of bankruptcy or
            insolvency proceedings against it or could file a petition seeking
            relief under any applicable federal or state law relating to
            bankruptcy and (C) has at least three years of employment experience
            with one or more entities that provide, in the ordinary course of
            their respective businesses, advisory, management or placement

            instruments, agreements or securities.

                  (ii) The Borrower will at all times have sufficient personnel
            and/or duly compensated agents to run its business and operations
            and will compensate its employees (if any) and agents from its own
            available funds for services provided to it. In the event employees
            of the Borrower participate in pension, insurance and other benefit
            plans of any Independent Party, the Borrower will on a current basis
            reimburse such Independent Party for its pro rata share of the costs
            thereof.

                  (iii) The Borrower will pay its own liabilities out of its own
            funds and assets.

                  (iv) The Borrower will maintain a separate office (a) which if
            leased from any Independent Party will be on terms no more or less
            favorable to the Borrower than could be obtained in a comparable
            arm's-length transaction with an unaffiliated Person and (b) which
            will be conspicuously identified as the Borrower's office so it can
            be easily located by outsiders. The Borrower will use its own
            electronic mail address, stationery, invoices, checks and telephone
            and facsimile numbers.

                  (v) The Borrower will hold itself out and identify itself as a
            separate and distinct entity under its own name and not as a
            division or part of any other Person.

                  (vi) The Borrower will promptly correct any misunderstanding
            of which it has knowledge regarding its separate existence and
            identity.

                  (vii) The Borrower will prepare and maintain its own full and
            complete books, records and financial statements separate from any
            other Person. The Borrower's financial statements will comply with
            generally accepted accounting principles.

                  (viii) The Borrower will maintain at least one bank account in
            its own name.

                  (ix) All business transactions entered into by the Borrower
            with any of its Affiliates will be on terms that are intrinsically
            fair and not more or less favorable to the Borrower, as the case may
            be, than terms and conditions available at the time to the Borrower
            for comparable arm's-length transactions with unaffiliated Persons,
            it being understood that the Transaction Documents satisfy the
            provisions of this paragraph (ix).

                  (x) The Borrower will not assume or guarantee or become
            obligated for debts of any Independent Party and no Independent
            Party will assume or guarantee or become obligated for the debts of
            the Borrower, other than as provided in the Transaction Documents.
            The Borrower will not hold its credit out as being available to
            satisfy the obligations of any other Persons.

                  (xi) The Borrower will not acquire obligations or securities
            of any Independent Party. The Borrower will not make loans, advances
            or otherwise extend credit to any Independent Party except as
            expressly contemplated by the Originator Purchase Agreement and the
            Transfer Agreement.

                  (xii) Except to the extent provided in the Transaction
            Documents, the Borrower will not commingle any of its money or other
            assets with the money or assets of any other entity. The Borrower
            will ensure that its funds will be clearly traceable at each step in
            any financial transaction.

                  (xiii) The Borrower will engage in transactions and conduct
            all other business activities solely in its own name and through its
            own authorized officers and agents and will present itself to the
            public as a separate company. Except to the extent provided in the
            Transaction Documents, no Independent Party will be appointed agent
            of the Borrower.

                  (xiv) The Borrower will not engage in any transaction with any
            of its Affiliates involving any intent to hinder, delay or defraud
            any Person.

                  (xv) The Borrower will observe all limited liability company
            formalities.

                  (xvi) The Borrower will take, or refrain from taking, as the
            case may be, all other actions that are necessary to be taken or not
            to be taken in order to (x) ensure that the assumptions and factual
            recitations set forth in the Specified Bankruptcy Opinion Provisions
            remain true and correct with respect to the

                                       60
<PAGE>

            Borrower and (y) comply with those procedures described in such
            provisions which are applicable to the Borrower.

            (l) Collateral Agreements. Except as permitted under Section 5.01(x)
and Section 11.16, the Borrower will not terminate, amend, waive or modify, or
consent to any termination, amendment, waiver or modification of, any provision
of any Collateral Agreement or grant any other consent or other indulgence under
any Collateral Agreement, in each case without the prior written consent of the
Required Committed Lenders; provided that the consent of each Committed Lender
shall be required for any such amendment, waiver, modification, consent or other
indulgence that would (i) release any portion of the Collateral if a Termination
Event or Incipient Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or would
result therefrom or (ii) release the Parent Guarantor from its obligations under
the Performance Guaranty. The Borrower will perform all of its obligations under
the Collateral Agreements and will enforce the Collateral Agreements in
accordance with their respective terms. The Borrower will take all actions to
perfect and enforce its rights and interests (and the rights and interests of
the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties as assignees of Borrower) under
the Collateral Agreements as the Administrative Agent or the Required Committed
Lenders may from time to time reasonably request, including, without limitation,
making claims to which it may be entitled under any indemnity, reimbursement or
similar provision contained in any Collateral Agreement.

            (m) Nature of Business; No Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not
engage in any business other than the purchase of Receivables, Related Security
and Collections from the Originators and the other transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements. The Borrower will not create or
form any Subsidiary.

            (n) Mergers, Etc. The Borrower will not merge with or into or
consolidate with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of

substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) to, or
acquire all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock or other
ownership interest of, or enter into any joint venture or partnership agreement
with, any Person, other than as contemplated by this Agreement and the
Originator Purchase Agreement.

            (o) Distributions, Etc. The Borrower will not (i) declare or make
any dividend payment or other distribution of assets, properties, cash, rights,
obligations or securities on account of any membership interests or other equity
interests in the Borrower, or return any capital to its members or other equity
holders as such, or purchase, retire, defease, redeem or otherwise acquire for
value or make any payment in respect of any membership interests or other equity
of the Borrower or any warrants, rights or options to acquire any membership
interests or other equity of the Borrower, now or hereafter outstanding, (ii)
prepay, purchase or redeem any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness hereunder),
(iii) lend or advance any funds or (iv) repay any loans or advances to, for or
from any of its Affiliates (the amounts described in clauses (i) through (iv)
being referred to as "Restricted Payments"); provided, however, that, prior to
the Termination Date, the Borrower may declare and pay cash dividends to its
sole member, may make payments in respect of the Intercompany Note and may make
purchases under the Transfer Agreement so long as (i) the Percentage Factor does
not exceed the Maximum Percentage Factor, as determined by reference to the most
recent Portfolio Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement, and no other
Termination Event or Involuntary Bankruptcy Event shall

                                       61
<PAGE>

then exist or would occur as a result thereof and (ii) any such dividends are in
compliance with all applicable law including the Delaware Limited Liability
Company Act, and have been approved by all necessary and appropriate limited
liability company action of the Borrower and its board of directors.

            (p) Indebtedness. The Borrower will not create, incur, guarantee,
assume or suffer to exist any Indebtedness or other liabilities, whether direct
or contingent, other than (i) as a result of the endorsement of negotiable
instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary
course of business, (ii) the incurrence of obligations under this Agreement,
(iii) the incurrence of other obligations pursuant to, and, as expressly
contemplated in, the Transaction Documents, and (iv) the incurrence of operating
expenses in the ordinary course of business.

            (q) Limited Liability Company Agreement. The Borrower will not
amend, modify or delete (or permit any amendment, modification or deletion of)
(i) the definition of "Independent Director or "Special Member" in its limited
liability company agreement as in effect on the Closing Date or (ii) any other
provision of its limited liability company agreement as in effect on the Closing
Date if, pursuant to the terms thereof, such amendment, modification or deletion
requires the consent of the Independent Director or Special Member thereunder.

            (r) Tangible Net Worth. The Borrower will maintain Tangible Net
Worth at all times equal to at least 15% of the Outstanding Balance of the Pool
Receivables at such time.

            (s) Taxes. The Borrower will file all tax returns and reports
required by law to be filed by it and will promptly pay all taxes and
governmental charges at any time owing, except such as are being contested in
good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate reserves have
been established. The Borrower will pay when due any taxes payable in connection
with the Collateral, exclusive of taxes on or measured by income or gross
receipts of the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents, the Conduit Lenders or
the Committed Lenders.

            (t) Treatment as Sales. Except as required by GAAP, the Borrower
will not account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise) the
transactions contemplated by the Transfer Agreement in any manner other than as
the sale and/or absolute conveyance of the Transferred Assets (as defined
therein) by the Transferor to the Borrower (except that, in accordance with
applicable tax principles, each transfer under the Transfer Agreement may be
ignored for tax purposes).

            (u) Investments. The Borrower will not make any loans to, advances
to, investments in or otherwise acquire any capital stock or equity security of,
or any equity interest in, any other Person, except as provided in the
Transaction Documents.

            (v) Control Agreements. The Borrower will cause all Collection
Accounts, and the Concentration Account to be subject at all times to a Control
Agreement duly executed by the Collection Agent, the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the applicable bank at which such account is
maintained.

                                       62
<PAGE>

            (w) Hedge Counterparties. If at any time a Hedge Counterparty ceases
to be an Eligible Counterparty, the Borrower will cause the Transferor to
replace such Hedge Counterparty with an Eligible Counterparty under each Credit
Default Swap to which such Hedge Counterparty is a party by no later than the
earlier of (i) the 30th day following the date on which such Hedge Counterparty
ceases to be an Eligible Counterparty or (ii) the fifth Business Day after such
date in the event that such Hedge Counterparty's short-term debt rating is
withdrawn by any Rating Agency or is downgraded below A-2 by S&P or below P-2 by
Moody's. Each such replacement will be made pursuant to documentation in
substantially the form of Exhibit D or otherwise in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Required Committed Lenders.

            (x) Amendments to Credit Default Swaps. The Borrower will not, and
will not permit the Transferor to, supplement, amend, extend, replace, terminate
or otherwise modify any Credit Default Swap without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and each Committed Lender, except
that no such consent will be required to (A) enter into an amendment solely to
reduce the Notional Amount under a Credit Default Swap or (B) extend or
terminate a Credit Default Swap; provided that prior to (and, in any event, at
least five Business Days before) reducing the Notional Amount of or terminating
such Credit Default Swap, either (1) the Collection Agent provides the
Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and each Committed Lender with a
certificate (signed by a Responsible Officer of the Collection Agent) which
attaches a Weekly Report or Daily Report giving pro forma effect to any
reduction in the Net Receivables Balance resulting from the reduction or
termination of such Credit Default Swap and which certifies that, after giving
pro forma effect to the reduction or termination of such Credit Default Swap,
the Percentage Factor does not exceed the Maximum Percentage Factor, as
determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio Report delivered under the
Servicing Agreement or (2) the Transferor has posted cash collateral with
respect to its obligations under Section 2.09 of the Transfer Agreement in a
manner satisfactory to each Committed Lender and in an amount not less than the
Notional Amount of such Credit Default Swap that is being terminated or the
amount of the reduction of the Notional Amount thereof, as the case may, be or
if less than such amount, in an amount that is satisfactory to each Committed
Lender in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Agreement.

            SECTION 5.02 Inspections; Annual Agreed Upon Procedures Audit. Until
the Final Payout Date:

            (a) Each of the Borrower and the Collection Agent will, at their
respective expense, from time to time during regular business hours as requested
by the Administrative Agent and/or any Funding Agent upon reasonable prior
notice, permit the Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent, or their respective
agents or representatives (including independent public accountants, which may
be the Borrower's or the Collection Agent's independent public accountants), (i)
to conduct periodic audits of the Receivables, the Related Security, the other
Collateral and the related books and records and collections systems of the
Borrower or the Collection Agent, as the case may be, (ii) to examine and make
copies of and abstracts from all books, records and documents (including,
without limitation, computer tapes and disks) in the possession or under the
control of the Borrower or the Collection Agent, as the case may be, relating to
Receivables, the Related Security and the other Collateral, including, without
limitation, the Contracts, and (iii) to visit the offices and properties of the
Borrower or the

                                       63
<PAGE>

Collection Agent, as the case may be, for the purpose of examining such
materials described in clause (ii) above, and to discuss matters relating to
Receivables, the Related Security and the other Collateral or the Borrower's or
the Collection Agent's performance under the Transaction Documents or under the
Contracts with any of the officers or employees of the Borrower or the
Collection Agent, as the case may be, having knowledge of such matters; provided
that, so long as no Termination Event or Involuntary Bankruptcy Event has
occurred and is continuing and the most recent Accountants' Letter delivered
pursuant to Section 5.02(b) does not identify any material discrepancies, the
Borrower and the Collection Agent shall be required to pay the expenses of no
more than two audits conducted by the Administrative Agent and the Funding
Agents during any single calendar year (such audits to be made on the dates
specified by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Funding Agents).

            (b) On or before March 31 of each year, beginning with March 31,
2005, the Collection Agent shall cause Ernst & Young LLP or another firm of
nationally recognized independent public accountants acceptable to the
Administrative Agent (who may also render other services to the Collection Agent
or its Affiliates) to furnish a report (addressed to the Administrative Agent
and each Funding Agent) to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent (each
such report, an "Accountants' Letter") in a form acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, to the effect that they have performed certain procedures
as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Funding Agents
(which, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and each Funding
Agent, shall include the procedures identified on Exhibit E) and examined
certain documents and records relating to the Receivables and the servicing
thereof and have compared the information contained in certain of the Monthly
Reports delivered pursuant to this Agreement for the preceding twelve (12)
calendar month period with such documents and records and that, on the basis of
such procedures, have noted no instances where the amounts set forth in such
Monthly Reports are not in agreement with the Collection Agent's documents and
records, except for such exceptions as shall be set forth in such report. The
cost of any such Accountants' Letter shall be paid by the Collection Agent out
of its own funds.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                          ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

Collection Agent so designated under the Servicing Agreement from time to time.

            SECTION 6.02 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent.

            (a) At any time following the occurrence of a Termination Event or
an Involuntary Bankruptcy Event, and at any other time that the Parent Guarantor
does not have a published Debt Rating of at least B by S&P and at least B2 by
Moody's, the Administrative Agent may (and if so directed by the Required
Committed Lenders, shall) have each Collection Account and the Concentration
Account transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of
the Secured Parties and/or (if a Termination Event or Involuntary Bankruptcy

                                       64
<PAGE>

Event has occurred) assume exclusive control of the Collection Accounts and the
Concentration Account, and may take such actions to effect such transfer or
assumption as it may determine to be necessary or appropriate (including,
without limitation, delivering the notices attached to the Control Agreements).

            (b) At any time following the occurrence of a Termination Event or
an Involuntary Bankruptcy Event:

                  (i) At the Administrative Agent's request (acting either on
            its own initiative or at the request of the Required Committed
            Lenders) and at the Borrower's expense, the Collection Agent shall
            (and if the Collection Agent shall fail to do so within three
            Business Days, the Administrative Agent may) notify each Obligor of
            Receivables of the Administrative Agent's security interest therein
            under this Agreement and direct that payments be made directly to
            the Administrative Agent or its designee; provided that no such
            notice may be delivered if the only Termination Event(s) that shall
            have occurred are those set forth in 7.01(h), (k), (l) or (m).

                  (ii) At the Administrative Agent's request (acting either on
            its own initiative or at the request of the Required Committed
            Lenders) and at the Borrower's expense, the Borrower and the
            Collection Agent shall (A) assemble all of the documents,
            instruments and other records (including, without limitation,
            computer tapes and disks) that evidence or relate to the Collateral,
            or that are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the
            Collateral, and shall make the same available to the Administrative
            Agent at a place selected by the Administrative Agent or its
            designee, and (B) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments
            received by it from time to time constituting Collections of
            Collateral in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and,
            promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments,
            duly indorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the
            Administrative Agent or its designee.

            (c) The Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent, and hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact coupled
with an interest, with full power of substitution and with full authority in
place of the Borrower, following the occurrence and during the continuation of a
Termination Event or Involuntary Bankruptcy Event, to take any and all steps in
the Borrower's name and on behalf of the Borrower that are necessary or
desirable, in the determination of the Administrative Agent, to collect amounts
due under the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) endorsing the
Borrower's, the Collection Agent's, the Transferor's or any Originator's name on
checks and other instruments representing Collections of Collateral, (ii)
enforcing the Receivables and the Related Security and the Collateral Agreements
including to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and
give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in
connection with therewith and to file any claims or take any action or institute
any proceedings that the Administrative Agent (or such designee) may deem to be
necessary or desirable for the collection thereof or to enforce compliance with
the terms and conditions of, or to perform any obligations or enforce any rights
of the Borrower in respect of, the Receivables and the Related Security and the
Collateral Agreements; provided that no enforcement action of the type

                                       65
<PAGE>

described in this clause (ii) may be taken by the Administrative Agent if no
Involuntary Bankruptcy Event then exists and the only Termination Event(s) that
shall have occurred are those set forth in 7.01(h), (k), (l) or (m).

            SECTION 6.03 Performance of Obligations.

            (a) If the Collection Agent or the Borrower fails to perform any of
its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause
performance of, such obligation; and the Administrative Agent's costs and
expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the
Collection Agent or the Borrower, as applicable.

            (b) The Borrower and the Collection Agent shall perform their
respective obligations under the Contracts and the Collateral Agreements to the
same extent as if a security interest therein had not been granted to the
Administrative Agent and the exercise by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
the Secured Parties of their rights under this Agreement shall not release the
Collection Agent or the Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with
respect to any Contracts or Collateral Agreements. None of the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders or the Funding Agents shall have any obligation or liability
with respect to any Collateral Agreements or Contracts, nor shall any of them be
obligated to perform the obligations of any Transaction Party thereunder.

            (c) The Administrative Agent's rights and powers under this Article
VI and under the Servicing Agreement shall not subject the Administrative Agent
to any liability if any action taken by it proves to be inadequate or invalid
(in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the
Administrative Agent) nor shall such powers confer any obligation whatsoever
upon the Administrative Agent.

                                  ARTICLE VII

written notice thereof; or

            (d) any event or condition occurs that (i) results in any Material
Indebtedness becoming due prior to its scheduled maturity or (ii) enables or

of any Material Indebtedness or any trustee or agent on its or their behalf to

provided that this clause (d) shall not apply to secured Indebtedness that
becomes due as a result of the voluntary sale or transfer of the property or
assets securing such Indebtedness if such sale or transfer is permitted
hereunder and under the documents providing for such Indebtedness; or

            (e) any Event of Bankruptcy shall occur with respect to any

            (j) the Percentage Factor exceeds the Maximum Percentage Factor, as
determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio Report delivered under the

consecutive Business Days; or

            (k) the average Dilution Ratio for any three consecutive Calculation

is consummated and (y) no Loans shall have been outstanding as of the last day

            (o) a "Termination Event" shall occur under (and as defined in) the
Originator Purchase Agreement or a "Termination Event" shall occur under (and as
defined in) the Transfer Agreement or the "Termination Date" or any "Non-Payment
Event" shall occur under (and as defined in) the Originator Purchase Agreement;
or

            (p) the failure by any Transaction Party to pay one or more final

waived or stayed for a period of 30 consecutive days, or any action shall be
legally taken by a judgment creditor to levy upon assets or properties of any
Transaction Party to enforce any such judgment; or

            (q) any Financial Covenant Default shall occur; or

            (r) any of this Agreement, the Originator Purchase Agreement, the
Transfer Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or the Performance Guaranty shall

then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion,
and shall, at the direction of the Required Committed Lenders, declare the
Termination Date to have occurred upon notice to the Borrower (in which case the
Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred); provided that automatically
upon the occurrence of any event (without any requirement for the giving of
notice) described in paragraph (e) of this Section 7.01, the Termination Date
shall occur. Upon any such declaration or upon such automatic termination, the
Lenders, the Funding Agents and the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition
to the rights and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other
rights and remedies provided after default under the UCC and under other
applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

            SECTION 7.02 Acceleration of Maturity. If a Termination Event shall

Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of
acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable; provided

                                       68

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

            SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby appoints
and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its
behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the
Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall not have any
duties other than those expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, and no
implied obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Transaction Document,
or otherwise exist, against the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any obligation to, or
relationship of trust or agency with, any Transaction Party, the Conduit
Lenders, the Committed Lenders or the Funding Agents. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in no event shall
the Administrative Agent ever be required to take any action which exposes the
Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to any provision
of any Transaction Document or applicable law.

            SECTION 8.02 Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Administrative Agent under
or in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the
Administrative Agent's servicing, administering or collecting Receivables as
Collection Agent), in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for
the Borrower or the Collection Agent), independent certified public accountants
and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any
Funding Agent, Conduit Lender or Committed Lender (whether written or oral) and
shall not be responsible to any Funding Agent, Conduit Lender or Committed
Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or
oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the
performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document on the part of any Transaction Party
or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Transaction
Party; (d) shall not be responsible to any Funding Agent, Conduit Lender or
Committed Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including notice by
telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telecopier) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and signed or sent by the
proper party or parties.

            SECTION 8.03 JPMorgan Chase and Affiliates. The obligation of
JPMorgan Chase to fund Loans under this Agreement may be satisfied by JPMorgan
Chase or

                                       69
<PAGE>

any of its Affiliates. With respect to any Loan or interest therein owned by it,
JPMorgan Chase shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any
Committed Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent. JPMorgan Chase and any of its Affiliates may generally
engage in any kind of business with the Transaction Parties or any Obligor, any
of their respective Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own
securities of the Transaction Parties or any Obligor or any of their respective
Affiliates, all as if JPMorgan Chase were not the Administrative Agent and
without any duty to account therefor to the Funding Agents, the Conduit Lenders
or the Committed Lenders.

            SECTION 8.04 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Each Committed
Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Transaction Parties), ratably based on the Commitment of such
Committed Lender (or, if the Commitments have terminated, ratably according to
the respective Commitment of such Committed Lender immediately prior to such
termination), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out
of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any action taken or
omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document, provided that no Committed Lender shall be liable for any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the
Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

            SECTION 8.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may
execute any of its duties through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be
entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or
misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable
care.

            SECTION 8.06 Action or Inaction by Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or
refusing to take action under any Transaction Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Funding Agents or the Required
Committed Lenders, as the case may be, and assurance of its indemnification by
the Committed Lenders, as it deems appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or
at the direction of the Required Committed Lenders, and such request or
direction and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding upon all Conduit Lenders, Committed Lenders and the Funding Agents. The
Lenders, the Funding Agents, and the Administrative Agent agree that unless any
action to be taken by the Administrative Agent under a Transaction Document (i)
specifically requires the advice or concurrence of all the Funding Agents or
(ii) specifically provides that it be taken by the Administrative Agent alone or
without any advice or concurrence of any Funding Agent, then the Administrative
Agent may (and shall, to the extent required hereunder) take action based upon
the advice or concurrence of the Required Committed Lenders.

            SECTION 8.07 Notice of Termination Events; Action by Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice
of the

                                       70
<PAGE>

occurrence of any Incipient Termination Event or of any Termination Event unless
the Administrative Agent has received notice from any Funding Agent, Lender, the
Collection Agent or the Borrower stating that an Incipient Termination Event or
Termination Event has occurred hereunder and describing such Incipient
Termination Event or Termination Event. If the Administrative Agent receives
such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to each Funding Agent
whereupon each Funding Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to its
respective Conduit Lender(s) and Committed Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall take such action concerning an Incipient Termination Event or a
Termination Event or any other matter hereunder as may be directed by the
Required Committed Lenders, (subject to the other provisions of this Article
VIII), but until the Administrative Agent receives such directions, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, as the Administrative Agent deems advisable and
in the best interests of the Lenders.

            SECTION 8.08 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Parties.
Each Funding Agent and Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees has
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the
Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the
Transaction Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by the Administrative Agent. Each Lender represents and warrants to the
Administrative Agent that, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will
continue to make its own appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and
creditworthiness of each Transaction Party and the Receivables and its own
decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any
Transaction Document. Except for items expressly required to be delivered under
any Transaction Document by the Administrative Agent to any Funding Agent or
Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Funding Agent or Lender with any information concerning the
Transaction Parties or any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of
the Administrative Agent or any of its directors, officers, agents, employees,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

            SECTION 8.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent may, upon at least thirty days' notice to the Borrower, the Collection
Agent and each Funding Agent, resign as Administrative Agent. Except as provided
below, such resignation shall not become effective until a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed by the Required Committed Lenders and has
accepted such appointment. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been
so appointed by the Required Committed Lenders, within 30 days after the
departing Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation, the departing
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Required Committed Lenders, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent, which successor Administrative Agent shall have
short-term debt ratings of at least A-1 from S&P and P-1 from Moody's and shall
be either a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$250,000,000 or a Subsidiary of such an institution and (so long as no
Termination Event has occurred and is continuing hereunder) shall be acceptable
to the Borrower. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Required Committed Lenders within 60 days after the departing
Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation, the departing
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Required Committed

                                       71
<PAGE>

Lenders, petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor
Administrative Agent, which successor Administrative Agent shall have short-term
debt ratings of at least A-1 from S&P and P-1 from Moody's, and shall be either
a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000
or a Subsidiary of such an institution. Upon such acceptance of its appointment
as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such
successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the
rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from any further duties and obligations
under the Transaction Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent's
resignation hereunder, the provisions of Section 2.6 of the Servicing Agreement
and Article X and this Article VIII of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit
as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the
Administrative Agent.

            SECTION 8.10 Consent to Agreed-Upon Procedures. Each Lender and
Funding Agent, by becoming a party to this Agreement, authorizes the
Administrative Agent (a) to execute on its behalf a letter agreement with
respect to the limited engagement of, and consenting to the agreed-upon
procedures to be performed by, the certified public accountants of the Parent
Guarantor and its Subsidiaries on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders and the Funding Agents in connection with the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents so long as such procedures are consistent with
Section 5.02; and (b) to approve additional agreed-upon procedures.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                               THE FUNDING AGENTS

            SECTION 9.01 Authorization and Action. Each Conduit Lender and each
Committed Lender which belongs to the same Lender Group hereby appoints and
authorizes the Funding Agent for such Lender Group to take such action as agent
on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated
to such Funding Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. No Funding Agent shall have any duties other than
those expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, and no implied
obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Transaction Document, or
otherwise exist, against any Funding Agent. No Funding Agent assumes, nor shall
it be deemed to have assumed, any obligation to, or relationship of trust or
agency with any Transaction Party, Conduit Lender or Committed Lender except as
otherwise expressly agreed by such Funding Agent. Notwithstanding any provision
of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in no event shall any
Funding Agent ever be required to take any action which exposes such Funding
Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to any provision of any
Transaction Document or applicable law.

            SECTION 9.02 Funding Agent's Reliance, Etc. No Funding Agent nor any
of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as a Funding Agent under or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents in the absence
of its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, a Funding Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel
(including counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or the Collection
Agent), independent certified public accountants and other experts selected by
it and shall not be liable

                                       72
<PAGE>

for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance
with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty
or representation to any Conduit Lender or Committed Lender (whether written or
oral) and shall not be responsible to any Conduit Lender or Committed Lender for
any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; (c)
shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document on the part of any Transaction Party or any other
Person or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any
Transaction Party; (d) shall not be responsible to any Conduit Lender or any
Committed Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Transaction
Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (e)
shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone),
consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier)
believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

            SECTION 9.03 Funding Agent and Affiliates. With respect to any Loan
or interests therein owned by it, each Funding Agent shall have the same rights
and powers under this Agreement as any Committed Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not a Funding Agent. A Funding Agent and any of its
Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with any Transaction
Party or any Obligor, any of their respective Affiliates and any Person who may
do business with or own securities of any Transaction Party or any Obligor or
any of their respective Affiliates, all as if such Funding Agent were not a
Funding Agent and without any duty to account therefor to any Conduit Lenders or
Committed Lenders.

            SECTION 9.04 Indemnification of Funding Agents. Each Committed
Lender in any Lender Group severally agrees to indemnify the Funding Agent for
such Lender Group (to the extent not reimbursed by the Transaction Parties),
ratably according to its Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Funding Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
or any action taken or omitted by such Funding Agent under this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document, provided that no Committed Lender shall be liable
for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such
Funding Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

            SECTION 9.05 Delegation of Duties. Each Funding Agent may execute
any of its duties through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to
advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Funding
Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

            SECTION 9.06 Action or Inaction by Funding Agent. Each Funding Agent
shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action
under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Lender Group and
assurance of its indemnification by the Committed

                                       73
<PAGE>

Lenders in its Lender Group, as it deems appropriate. Each Funding Agent shall
in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or
at the direction of the Committed Lenders in its Lender Group representing a
majority of the Commitments in such Lender Group, and such request or direction
and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon
all Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Lender Group.

            SECTION 9.07 Notice of Events of Termination. No Funding Agent shall
be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Incipient
Termination Event or of any Termination Event unless such Funding Agent has
received notice from the Administrative Agent, any other Funding Agent, any
Conduit Lender or Committed Lender, the Collection Agent or the Borrower stating
that an Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event has occurred hereunder
and describing such Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event. If a
Funding Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to
the Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Lender Group and to the
Administrative Agent (but only if such notice received by such Funding Agent was
not sent by the Administrative Agent). The Funding Agent may take such action
concerning an Incipient Termination Event or a Termination Event as may be
directed by Committed Lenders in its Lender Group representing a majority of the
Commitments in such Lender Group (subject to the other provisions of this
Article IX), but until such Funding Agent receives such directions, such Funding
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, as such Funding Agent deems advisable and in the best
interests of the Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Lender Group.

            SECTION 9.08 Non-Reliance on Funding Agent and Other Parties. Except
to the extent otherwise agreed to in writing between a Conduit Lender and its
Funding Agent, each Conduit Lender and Committed Lender in the same Lender Group
expressly acknowledges that neither the Funding Agent for its Lender Group nor
any of such Funding Agent's directors, officers, agents or employees has made
any representations or warranties to it and that no act by such Funding Agent
hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Transaction Parties,
shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Funding
Agent. Each Conduit Lender and Committed Lender in the same Lender Group
represents and warrants to the Funding Agent for such Lender Group that,
independently and without reliance upon such Funding Agent, any other Funding
Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Conduit Lender or Committed Lender
and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has
made and will continue to make its own appraisal of and investigation into the
business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and
creditworthiness of the Transaction Parties and the Receivables and its own
decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any
Transaction Document. Except for items expressly required to be delivered under
any Transaction Document by a Funding Agent to any Conduit Lender or Committed
Lender in its Lender Group, no Funding Agent shall have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Conduit Lender or Committed Lender in its Lender
Group with any information concerning the Transaction Parties or any of their
Affiliates that comes into the possession of such Funding Agent or any of its
directors, officers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

            SECTION 9.09 Successor Funding Agent. Any Funding Agent may, upon at
least thirty (30) days' notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the
Collection Agent and the Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Lender
Group, resign as Funding Agent for its Lender Group. Such resignation shall not
become effective until a successor Funding Agent is appointed in the manner
prescribed by the relevant Asset Purchase Agreement or, in the absence of any
provisions in such Asset Purchase Agreement providing for the appointment of a
successor Funding Agent, until a successor Funding Agent is appointed by the
Conduit Lender(s) in such Lender Group (with the consent of Committed Lenders
representing a majority of the Commitments in such Lender Group) and has
accepted such appointment. If no successor Funding Agent shall have been so
appointed within 30 days after the departing Funding Agent's giving of notice of
resignation, then the departing Funding Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders in
its Lender Group, appoint a successor Funding Agent for such Lender Group, which
successor Funding Agent shall have short-term debt ratings of at least A-1 from
S&P and P-1 from Moody's and shall be either a commercial bank having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 or an Affiliate of such an
institution. Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Funding Agent for such
Lender Group hereunder by a successor Funding Agent, such successor Funding
Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the
retiring Funding Agent, and the retiring Funding Agent shall be discharged from
any further duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents. After any
retiring Funding Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of Section 2.6 of
the Servicing Agreement and Article X and this Article IX of this Agreement
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was a Funding Agent.

            SECTION 9.10 Reliance on Funding Agent. Unless otherwise advised in
writing by a Funding Agent or by any Conduit Lender or Committed Lender in such
Funding Agent's Lender Group, each party to this Agreement may assume that (i)
such Funding Agent is acting for the benefit and on behalf of each of the
Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Lender Group, as well as for the
benefit of each assignee or other transferee from any such Person, and (ii) each
action taken by such Funding Agent has been duly authorized and approved by all
necessary action on the part of the Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its
Lender Group.

                                    ARTICLE X

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

            SECTION 10.01 Indemnities by the Borrower. Without limiting any
other rights that the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents, the Conduit
Lenders, the Committed Lenders, the Program Support Providers, any Program
Manager or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees,

hereunder or under applicable law, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each
Indemnified Party from and against any and all damages, losses, claims,
liabilities, deficiencies, costs, disbursements and expenses, including, without
limitation, interest, penalties, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable
attorneys' fees (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as
"Indemnified Amounts") arising out of or resulting from this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document or the use of proceeds of Loans or in respect of any
Collateral, excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent that such
Indemnified

                                       75

Indemnified Party and (b) any income taxes incurred by such Indemnified Party
arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or the ownership of Loans.
Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay on
demand to each Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such
Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts relating to
or resulting from any of the following (excluding Indemnified Amounts and taxes
described in clauses (a) and (b) above):

                  (i) any Receivable which the Borrower or the Collection Agent

            reinvestment or at any subsequent time;

                  (vi) any dispute, claim or defense (other than discharge in
            bankruptcy) of an Obligor to the payment of any Receivable
            (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Receivable
            or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding

<PAGE>

                  (viii) any products liability, environmental or other claim
            arising out of or in connection with merchandise, goods or services
            which are the subject of any Contract or the sale of which gave rise
            to any Receivable;

                  (ix) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time

            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, solely
for purposes of the Borrower's indemnification obligations in clauses (ii) and
(vii) of this Article X, any representation, warranty or covenant qualified by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of a Material Adverse Effect or similar
concepts of materiality shall be deemed to be not so qualified.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

            SECTION 11.01 Amendments, Etc. No failure on the part of the Funding
Agents, the Conduit Lenders, the Committed Lenders or the Administrative Agent
to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to
any departure by any Transaction Party therefrom shall be effective unless in a
writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the Required Committed Lenders
(and, in the case of any amendment, also signed by the Borrower and the
Collection Agent), and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given;
provided that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed by each Lender (or, in the case of clause (c) below, each Lender having
its fees reduced or delayed or its Commitment or Conduit Lending Limit
increased) in addition to the Administrative Agent:

                                       77

            date for payment thereof;

                  (b) increase the Facility Limit;

                  (c) reduce fees payable by the Borrower to the Funding Agents,
            the Conduit Lenders or the Committed Lenders or delay the dates on
            which such fees are payable;

                  (d) extend the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date or the
            Maturity Date;

                  (e) release any portion of the Collateral if a Termination
            Event or Incipient Termination Event has occurred or would result
            therefrom; or

                  (f) change any of the provisions of this Section or the
            definition of "Required Committed Lenders";

                  (g) amend any Termination Event set forth in Section 7.01(e)
            or (j); or

                  (h) amend the definition of "CP Rate", "Total Reserves",
            "Percentage Factor", "Loss and Dilution Reserve", "Carrying Cost
            Reserve", "Servicing Fee Reserve", "Default Ratio", "Eligible
            Counterparty", "Defaulted Receivable", "Delinquent Receivable" or
            "Net Receivables Balance" or increase the Maximum Percentage Factor
            or any Concentration Limit; or

                  (i) release any Performance Guarantor from its obligations
            under the Performance Guaranty;

and provided, further, that (x) no amendment, waiver or consent shall increase
the Commitment of any Committed Lender or the Conduit Lending Limit of any
Conduit Lender unless in writing and signed by such Committed Lender or such
Conduit Lender, as the case may be, and the relevant Funding Agent and (y) no
amendment, waiver or consent shall alter the duties of any Funding Agent in any
material respect without the consent of such Funding Agent.

            SECTION 11.02 Notices, Etc. Except as provided below, all
communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including
telecopy or electronic facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be
given to the other party at its address or telecopy number specified below or at
such other address or telecopy number as such party may hereafter specify for
the purposes of notice to such party. Each such notice or other communication
shall be effective (i) if given by telecopy, when such telecopy is transmitted
to the telecopy number specified in this Section 11.02 and confirmation is
received, (ii) if given by mail three Business Days following such posting,
postage prepaid, U.S. certified or registered, (iii) if given by overnight
courier, one Business Day after deposit thereof with a national overnight
courier service, or (iv) if given by any other means, when received at the

to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent to effect Borrowings and Tranche
Period and Interest Rate selections based on telephonic

                                       78

in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower. The Borrower
agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent a
written confirmation of each telephonic notice signed by an authorized officer
of Borrower. However, the absence of such confirmation shall not affect the
validity of such notice. If the written confirmation differs in any material
respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent or such Funding Agent,
the records of the Administrative Agent or such Funding Agent shall govern
absent manifest error.

            SECTION 11.03 Assignability.

            (a) This Agreement and each Lenders' rights and obligations
hereunder shall be assignable by such Lender and its successors and permitted
assigns to any Eligible Assignee. Each assignor of a Loan or any interest
therein shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of any such
assignment. Each assignor of a Loan or any interest therein may, in connection
with the assignment or participation, disclose to the assignee or participant
any information relating to the Transaction Parties, including the Collateral,
furnished to such

                                       79
<PAGE>

assignor by or on behalf of any Transaction Party or by the Administrative
Agent; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant
agrees to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating
to the Transaction Parties received by it from any of the foregoing entities in
a manner consistent with Section 11.06(b).

            (b) Assignments by Conduit Lenders. Each Conduit Lender may assign,
grant security interests in or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the
Loans to any Eligible Assignee or Program Support Provider with respect to such
Conduit Lender without prior notice to or consent from any other party or any
other condition or restriction of any kind. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, each Conduit Lender may, from time to time with prior or
concurrent notice to the Borrower and each Funding Agent, assign all or any
portion of its interest in the Loans and its rights and obligations under this
Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party to a
Conduit Assignee. Upon such assignment by a Conduit Lender to a Conduit
Assignee, (i) unless a new Lender Group is being established pursuant to Section
11.03(i) below, the Funding Agent for such Conduit Lender will act as the
Funding Agent for such Conduit Assignee hereunder, (ii) such Conduit Assignee
and its liquidity support provider(s) and credit support provider(s) and other
related parties (including all of its Program Support Providers) shall have the
benefit of all the rights and protections provided to such Conduit Lender and
its related Committed Lenders herein and in the other Transaction Documents
(including, without limitation, any limitation on recourse against such Conduit
Assignee), (iii) such Conduit Assignee shall assume all of such Conduit Lender's
obligations hereunder or under any other Transaction Document (whenever created,
whether before or after such assignment) with respect to the assigned portion of
the Loans held by such Conduit Lender and such Conduit Lender shall be released
from all such obligations, (iv) all distributions to such Conduit Lender
hereunder with respect to the assigned portion of the Loans shall be made to
such Conduit Assignee, (v) the definition of the term "CP Rate" shall be
determined on the basis of the interest rate or discount applicable to
Commercial Paper issued by such Conduit Assignee (rather than such assigning
Conduit Lender), (vi) the defined terms and other terms and provisions of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be interpreted in accordance
with the foregoing, and (vii) if requested by the Administrative Agent or
Funding Agent with respect to the Conduit Assignee, the parties will execute and
deliver such further agreements and documents (including amendments to this
Agreement) and take such other actions as the Administrative Agent or such
Funding Agent may reasonably request to evidence and give effect to the
foregoing.

            (c) Assignment by Committed Lenders. Each Committed Lender may
assign to any Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its
Commitment and any Loans or interests therein owned by it); provided, however
that

                  (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a
            varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this
            Agreement,

                  (ii) the amount being assigned pursuant to each such
            assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and
            Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be
            less than the lesser of (x) $10,000,000 and (y) all of the assigning
            Committed Lender's Commitment, and

                                       80
<PAGE>

                  (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and
            deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and
            recording in the Register (as defined below), an Assignment and
            Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of
            $2,500.

            Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording from and
after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the
assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that
rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned to it pursuant to
such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Committed
Lender thereunder and (y) the assigning Committed Lender shall, to the extent
that rights and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment
and Acceptance, relinquish such rights and be released from such obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering
all or the remaining portion of an assigning Committed Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement, such Committed Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto). In addition, any Committed Lender or any of its Affiliates may
assign any of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to payment of
Principal Balance and Interest) under this Agreement to any Federal Reserve Bank
without notice to or consent of any Transaction Party, any other Committed
Lender or Conduit Lender, any Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent.

            (d) Register. At all times during which any Loan is outstanding, the
Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.02
of this Agreement (or such other address of the Administrative Agent notified by
the Administrative Agent to the other parties hereto) a register as provided
herein (the "Register"). All Loans and any interest therein, and any Assignments
and Acceptances of any Loans and any interest therein delivered to and accepted
by the Administrative Agent, shall be registered in the Register, and the
Register shall serve as a record of ownership that identifies the owner of each
Loan and any interest therein. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, no transfer of any Loan or any interest therein shall be effective
unless and until such transfer has been recorded in the Register. The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error, and the Borrower, the Collection Agent, the Administrative Agent, the
Funding Agents, the Conduit Lenders and the Committed Lenders may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Committed Lender or Conduit
Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement for all purposes of this
Agreement. This Section 11.03(d) shall be construed so that each Loan and any
interest therein is maintained at all times in "registered form" within the
meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h) and 881(c) of the IRC, solely for the
purposes of this Section 11.03, the Administrative Agent will act as an agent of
the Borrower. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower,
any Funding Agent, any Conduit Lender or any Committed Lender at any reasonable
time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

            (e) Procedure. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Committed Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the
Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been duly
completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the
information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
thereof to the Borrower.

                                       81
<PAGE>

            (f) Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or
more banks or other entities (each a "Participant") in or to all or a portion of
its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation,
all or a portion of its interests in the Loans owned by it and, in the case of a
Committed Lender, its Commitment); provided, however, that

                  (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall
            remain unchanged,

                  (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
            parties to this Agreement for the performance of such obligations,

                  (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents, the other
            Lenders, the Borrower and the Collection Agent shall have the right
            to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
            connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
            Agreement.

            Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that the Participant shall not have any right to
direct the enforcement of this Agreement or other Transaction Documents or to
approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement
or the other Transaction Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument
may provide that such Committed Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of a type that would
require the consent of each Lender affected thereby pursuant to Section 11.01.
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a Committed Lender's source of funds may
derive in part from its Participants. Accordingly, references in Sections 2.11,
2.12, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 10.01 and 11.04 and the other terms and provisions of
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to determinations, reserve
and capital adequacy requirements, expenses, increased costs, reduced receipts,
Indemnified Amounts and the like as they pertain to such Lender shall be deemed
also to include those of its Participants.

            (g) Neither the Borrower nor the Collection Agent may assign any of
its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Committed Lenders.

            (h) The Collection Agent and the Borrower agree to assist each
Committed Lender, upon its reasonable request, in syndicating their respective
Commitments hereunder, including making management and representatives of the
Collection Agent and the Borrower reasonably available to participate in
informational meetings with potential assignees.

            (i) In connection with any assignment by a Conduit Lender of all or
any portion of its Conduit Lending Limit to a Conduit Assignee, such Conduit
Assignee may elect to establish a new Lender Group hereunder by the execution
and delivery of a Joinder Agreement by such Conduit Assignee, the Committed
Lenders which are to be in its Lender Group and the Person which is to be the
Funding Agent for such Lender Group, in each case without the consent of any
other party. Upon the effective date of such Joinder Agreement, (a) the Person
specified therein as a "Funding Agent" shall become a party hereto and a party
to the Lender Fee Letter as a Funding Agent, entitled to the rights and subject
to the obligations of a Funding Agent

            SECTION 11.05 No Proceedings. Each of the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Collection Agent, each Funding Agent, each Conduit
Lender, each Committed Lender, each assignee of a Loan or any interest therein
and each Person which enters into a commitment to purchase Loans or interests

long as any Commercial Paper or other senior indebtedness issued by such Conduit
Lender shall be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one
day since the last day on which any such Commercial Paper or other senior
indebtedness shall have been outstanding.

            SECTION 11.06 Confidentiality.

            (a) Subject to Section 11.06(c) below, the Fee Letters (including
any prior drafts thereof) and any other pricing information relating to the
facility contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including, without
limitation, such information set forth in any

                                       83
<PAGE>

engagement letter, term sheet or proposal prior to the date hereof)
(collectively, "Product Information") is confidential. Each of the Borrower and
the Collection Agent agrees:

                  (i) to keep all Product Information confidential and to
            disclose Product Information only to those of its officers,
            employees, agents, accountants, legal counsel and other
            representatives (collectively "Representatives") who have a need to
            know such Product Information for the purpose of assisting in the
            negotiation, completion and administration of the facility
            contemplated hereby (the "Facility");

                  (ii) to use the Product Information only in connection with
            the Facility and not for any other purpose; and

                  (iii) to cause its Representatives to comply with these
            provisions and to be responsible for any failure of any
            Representative to so comply.

            The provisions of this Section shall not apply to Product
Information that is or hereafter becomes (through a source other than the
Borrower, the Collection Agent or any of their respective Affiliates or
Representatives) a matter of general public knowledge. The provisions of this
Section shall not prohibit the Borrower or the Collection Agent from filing with
any governmental or regulatory agency any information or other documents with
respect to the Facility as may be required by applicable Law.

            (b) Subject to Section 11.06(c) below, each Lender, each Funding
Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees to maintain the confidentiality of
all non-public information with respect to the Borrower, the Collection Agent or
the Receivables furnished or delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement;
provided, that such information may be disclosed (i) to such party's officers,
employees, agents, accountants, legal counsel and other representatives
(collectively "Lender Representatives") who have a need to know such information
for the purpose of assisting in the negotiation, completion and administration
of the facility contemplated hereby, (ii) to such party's assignees and
participants and potential assignees and participants to the extent such
disclosure is made pursuant to a written agreement of confidentiality
substantially similar to this Section 11.06(b), (iii) to the Rating Agencies and
the Program Support Providers for each Conduit Lender, (iv) to the extent
required by applicable Law or by any Official Body and (v) in connection with
the enforcement of any Transaction Document.

            The provisions of Section 11.06(b) shall not apply to information
that is or hereafter becomes (through a source other than the applicable Lender,
Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent or any Lender Representative
associated with such party) a matter of general public knowledge. The provisions
of this Section shall not prohibit any Lender, Funding Agent or the
Administrative Agent from filing with or making available to any governmental or
regulatory agency any information or other documents with respect to the
Facility as may be required by applicable Law or requested by such governmental
or regulatory agency.

            (c) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, from the
commencement of discussions with respect to the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (the "Transaction"), each of the
parties hereto (and each of their

                                       84
<PAGE>

respective, and their respective affiliates, employees, officers, directors,
advisors, representatives and agents) are permitted to disclose to any and all
persons, without limitation of any kind, the structure and tax aspects (as such
terms are used in Internal Revenue Code Sections 6011, 6111 and 6112 and the
regulations promulgated thereunder) of the Transaction, and all materials of any
kind (including opinions or other tax analysis) that are provided to any party
hereto related to such structure and tax aspects. In this regard, each party
hereto acknowledges and agrees that the disclosure of the structure or tax
aspects of the Transaction is not limited in any way by an express or implied
understanding or agreement, oral or written (whether or not such understanding
or agreement is legally binding). Furthermore, each party hereto acknowledges
and agrees that it does not know or have reason to know that its use or
disclosure of information relating to the structure or tax aspects of the
Transaction is limited in any other manner (such as where the Transaction is
claimed to be proprietary or exclusive) for the benefit of any other Person. To
the extent that disclosure of the structure or tax aspects of the Transaction by
any party hereto is limited by any existing agreement between the parties
hereto, such limitation is agreed to be void ab initio and such agreement is
hereby amended to permit disclosure of the structure and tax aspects of the
Transaction.

            SECTION 11.07 Further Assurances. Each of the Borrower and the
Collection Agent shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be
executed, acknowledged or delivered, from time to time, within a reasonable time
period of such request, (A) such amendments or supplements to this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents as are requested by the Administrative Agent
(acting at the direction of the each Funding Agent and the Committed Lenders
necessary to approve such action pursuant to Section 11.01), and (B) such
further instruments and take such further action, in each case, as may be
reasonably necessary (as determined by the Funding Agents in consultation with
the Collection Agent), to obtain the confirmation of the current ratings
assigned to the Commercial Paper of any Conduit Lender (on an unwrapped basis),
to the extent such ratings are attributable to the transactions contemplated
hereby and the other Transaction Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing and
thereafter from time to time as may be necessary, each of the Borrower and the
Collection Agent shall (A) cooperate with each Rating Agency in connection with
any review of the Transaction Documents which may be undertaken by such Rating
Agency and (B) provide each Rating Agency with such information or access to
such information as they may reasonably request in connection with any future
review of the ratings referred to above.

            SECTION 11.08 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

            SECTION 11.09 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be
deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute
one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
page to this Agreement by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart of this Agreement.

            SECTION 11.10 Integration; Binding Effect; Survival of Termination.
This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents executed by the parties
hereto on the date hereof contain the final and complete integration of all
prior expressions by the parties hereto

                                       85
<PAGE>

with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire
agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
superseding all prior oral or written understandings. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns (including any trustee in bankruptcy). Any
provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing
obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms and shall remain
in full force and effect until the Final Payout Date; provided, however, that
the provisions of Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 10.01, 11.04, 11.05,
11.06 and 11.15 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

            SECTION 11.11 Consent to Jurisdiction.

            (a) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New
York City in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, and each party hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in
respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New
York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. The
parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may
effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any
such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

            (b) Each of the Borrower and the Collection Agent consents to the
service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing
of copies of such process to it at its address specified in Section 11.02.
Nothing in this Section 11.11 shall affect the right of any Conduit Lender, any
Committed Lender, any Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent to serve legal
process in any other manner permitted by law.

            SECTION 11.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES,
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL
PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN
TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED
WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.

            SECTION 11.13 Right of Setoff. Each Lender is hereby authorized (in
addition to any other rights it may have) at any time after the occurrence of
the Termination Date due to the occurrence of a Termination Event, or during the
continuation of an Incipient Termination Event, to set off, appropriate and
apply (without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby
expressly waived) any deposits and any other indebtedness held or owing by such
Lender to, or for the account of, the Borrower against the amount of the
Borrower Obligations owing by the Borrower to such Person.

                                       86
<PAGE>

            SECTION 11.14 Ratable Payments. If any Committed Lender, whether by
setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it with respect to any Borrower
Obligations in a greater proportion than that received by any other Committed
Lender entitled to receive a ratable share of such Borrower Obligations, such
Committed Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without
recourse or warranty a portion of such Borrower Obligations held by the other
Committed Lenders so that after such purchase each Committed Lender will hold
its ratable proportion of such Borrower Obligations; provided that if all or any
portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Committed
Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the
extent of such recovery, but without interest.

            SECTION 11.15 Limitation of Liability.

            (a) No claim may be made by any Transaction Party or any other
Person against any Lender, any Funding Agent, the Administrative Agent or their
respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents (each
a "Lender Party") for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability
arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document, or any act, omission or event occurring in
connection herewith or therewith, except with respect to any claim arising out
of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Lender Party; and each of
the Borrower and the Collection Agent hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to
sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or
not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

            (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
obligations of the respective Conduit Lenders under this Agreement are solely
the corporate obligations of each such Conduit Lender and shall be payable only
at such time as funds are actually received by, or are available to, such
Conduit Lender in excess of funds necessary to pay in full all outstanding
Commercial Paper issued by such Conduit Lender and, to the extent funds are not
available to pay such obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not
constitute a claim against such Conduit Lender. Each party hereto agrees that
the payment of any claim (as defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code) of any such party shall be subordinated to the payment in full
of all Commercial Paper.

            (c) No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of any
Conduit Lender contained in this Agreement shall be had against any
incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent
of such Conduit Lender, the Funding Agent with respect to such Conduit Lender or
any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) by the enforcement
of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any
statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this
Agreement is solely a corporate obligation of such Conduit Lender, and that no
personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any incorporator,
stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of any
Conduit Lender, any Funding Agent or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue
of such capacity) or any of them under or by reason of any of the obligations,
covenants or agreements of such Conduit Lender contained in this Agreement, or
implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by any
Conduit Lender of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at
common law or at equity, or by statute, rule or regulation, of every such
incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent
is

                                       87
<PAGE>

hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution
of this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Person
from any liability it might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions
taken or fraudulent omissions made by them.

            SECTION 11.16 Limitation on the Addition and Termination of
Originators. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
Originator Purchase Agreement, the Borrower shall not consent to any request
made to terminate the right or obligation of any Originator to continue selling
all its Receivables to the Transferor under the Originator Purchase Agreement,
nor will any Originator which is the subject of such request be terminated under
the Originator Purchase Agreement, in each case unless (i) the Collection Agent
provides the Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and each Committed Lender
with a certificate (signed by a Responsible Officer of the Collection Agent)
which attaches a Weekly Report or Daily Report giving pro forma effect to any
reduction in the Net Receivables Balance resulting from the termination of such
Originator and any change in the Total Reserves as set forth in the next
sentence, and which certifies that, after giving pro forma effect to such
termination and any prepayments of Loans on or prior to the date of such
termination, the Percentage Factor does not exceed the Maximum Percentage
Factor, as determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio Report delivered
under the Servicing Agreement, (ii) no Termination Event or Incipient
Termination Event (other than with respect to the Originator so terminated) has
occurred and is continuing (both before and after giving effect to such
termination) and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Funding Agents will have
received prior notice of such termination. In the event any Originator is so
terminated, the ratios used in calculating the Total Reserves shall be
determined as if the Receivables of such Originator had never existed.

(b) The Borrower will not, and will not permit the Transferor to, consent to the
addition of a new Originator under the Originator Purchase Agreement except (i)
with the consent of the Required Committed Lenders (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld), (ii) upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent
specified in such Originator Purchase Agreement and (iii) upon the delivery of
an amended Schedule VII reflecting the addition of such new Originator.

            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be

                                  DEFINITIONS

            1.1 Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms
which are used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the
Amended and Restated Receivables Loan Agreement dated as of December 31, 2004

time parties thereto as "Conduit Lenders," "Committed Lenders" and "Funding

otherwise modified from time to time, the "Receivables Loan Agreement").

            1.2 Other Terms. All accounting terms not specifically defined
herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP. All terms used in Article 9
of the UCC in the State of New York, as in effect on the date hereof and not

Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all references herein to "Article,"
"Section," "Schedule" or "Exhibit" means articles and sections of, and schedules
and exhibits to, this Agreement. Headings are for purposes of reference only and
shall not otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision

            1.3 Amendment and Restatement. Subject to the satisfaction of the

                                   ARTICLE II
                         ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTIONS

            2.1 Designation of Collection Agent. The servicing, administration,
collection and management of the Pool Receivables shall be conducted by the
Person so designated hereunder from time to time (such Person, the "Collection
Agent"). Until the Administrative Agent (with the consent or at the direction of
the Required Committed Lenders) gives notice to the Borrower of the designation
of a new Collection Agent (which notice may be given at any time following the
occurrence and during the continuation of a Collection Agent Default), TRW U.S.
is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations
of, the Collection Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents. TRW U.S. may not resign from the obligations and
liabilities hereby imposed on it. The Administrative Agent may, and at the
direction of the Required Committed Lenders shall, at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuation of a Collection Agent Default, designate
as Collection Agent any Person (including itself) to succeed TRW U.S. or any
successor Collection Agent, on such terms and conditions as the Administrative
Agent and such successor Collection Agent shall agree. The Collection Agent may,
with the prior consent of the Required Committed

                                       2
<PAGE>

Lenders, subcontract with any other Person for the servicing, administration,
collection or management of the Receivables (each such Person a "Sub-Collection
Agent"); provided that TRW U.S. may without such consent delegate its duties as
Collection Agent hereunder to any Affiliate. Any such subcontract or delegation
shall not affect the Collection Agent's liability for performance of its duties
and obligations pursuant to the terms hereof. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Person that has
entered into a subcontract with the Collection Agent or to whom the Collection
Agent has delegated any of its duties (including, without limitation, any
Seller) shall be deemed to be an action or omission by the Collection Agent
(including, without limitation, for purposes of determining whether any
Receivable is a Diluted Receivable and for purposes of Sections 2.6 of this
Agreement and 10.01 of the Receivables Loan Agreement).

            2.2 Duties of Collection Agent.

                  (a) The Collection Agent shall take or cause to be taken all
such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect and manage each Pool
Receivable from time to time, all in accordance in all material respects with
applicable Laws and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy. The
Borrower and the Administrative Agent hereby appoint the Collection Agent, from
time to time designated pursuant to Section 2.1, as their agent to enforce their
respective rights and interests in the Pool Receivables, the Related Security
and the related Contracts. In performing its duties as Collection Agent, the
Collection Agent shall exercise reasonable care and diligence and shall use the
same care and apply the same policies as it would exercise and apply if it owned
such Pool Receivables and shall act in such manner as it reasonably deems to be
in the best interests of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Following the
occurrence and during the continuation of a Collection Agent Default, if the
Termination Date has occurred, the Administrative Agent shall have the sole
right to direct the Collection Agent to commence or settle any legal action to
enforce collection of any Receivable or any Related Security with respect
thereto.

                  (b) The Collection Agent shall perform and shall comply with,
and agrees to be bound by, the terms of the Receivables Loan Agreement in the
same manner as if it were a party thereto. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Collection Agent shall (i) administer, manage and apply the
Collections in accordance with Article II of the Receivables Loan Agreement and
(ii) cause Accountants' Letters to be delivered, at its own expense, as and when
required pursuant to Section 5.02(b) of the Receivables Loan Agreement.

                  (c) If no Termination Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Collection Agent, may, in accordance with the Credit and
Collection Policy, extend the maturity or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any
Pool Receivable as the Collection Agent deems appropriate to maximize
Collections thereof, provided that the classification of any such Pool
Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted Receivable shall not be
affected by any such extension, and provided further that if such Pool
Receivable is an Eligible Receivable, the Collection Agent shall not amend or
modify such Pool Receivable or any Contract related thereto in a manner that
would cause such Receivable to cease to be an Eligible Receivable unless (i)
following such amendment or modification the Percentage Factor would not exceed
the Maximum Percentage Factor, as determined by the most recent Portfolio Report
delivered hereunder, and (ii) the applicable Originator has granted or paid all
Purchase Price Credits (as

                                       3
<PAGE>

defined in the Originator Purchase Agreement) required in connection therewith.
Following the occurrence and during the continuation of a Termination Event, the
Collection Agent may grant such extensions or adjustments only with the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent. In no event shall the Collection
Agent be entitled to make any Lender, any Funding Agent or the Administrative
Agent a party to any litigation involving the Transaction Documents or the
Receivables without such Lender's, such Funding Agent's or the Administrative
Agent's prior written consent.

                  (d) The Collection Agent shall hold in trust for the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents and each Lender, in accordance with
their respective interests, all documents, instruments and records (including,
without limitation, computer tapes or disks) which evidence or relate to Pool
Receivables or Related Security. The Collection Agent shall mark or cause to be
marked the Borrower's, the Transferor's and each Originator's master data
processing records evidencing the Pool Receivables with a legend, reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent, evidencing that the Pool Receivables
have been sold to the Borrower and a security interest has been granted in favor
of the Administrative Agent.

                  (e) The Collection Agent shall, as soon as practicable
following receipt and identification thereof, and in any event within one
Business Day, turn over to the Borrower or such other Person as may be entitled
thereto any cash collections or other cash proceeds received in the Collection
Accounts or the Concentration Account and not constituting Collections of
Collateral.

            2.3 Reports.

                  (a) Monthly Report. No later than 4:00 p.m., New York City
time, on each Monthly Reporting Date, the Collection Agent shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and the Borrower a Monthly Report
containing the information listed in Exhibit A-1 as of the close of business on
the last Business Day of the immediately preceding Calculation Period and such
other information as the Administrative Agent or any Funding Agent may
reasonably request.

                  (b) Weekly Reports. No later than 4:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the third Business Day of each calendar week, for so long as the
Collection Agent is not required to deliver Daily Reports hereunder, the
Collection Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent
and the Borrower a Weekly Report setting forth the information listed in Exhibit
A-2 as of the close of business on the last Business Day of the immediately
preceding week, and such other information as the Administrative Agent or any
Funding Agent may reasonably request.

                  (c) Daily Reports. No later than 4:00 p.m., New York City
time, on each Business Day commencing on the date which falls six months after
the Closing Date (or, if the Performance Guarantor does not have a published
Debt Rating from S&P of at least B and from Moody's of at least B2, on the date
which falls three months after the Closing Date) the Collection Agent shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and the Borrower a Daily
Report setting forth the information listed in Exhibit A-3 as of the close of
business on the second preceding Business Day, and such other information as the

                                       4
<PAGE>

Administrative Agent or any Funding Agent may reasonably request; provided that
during any such period when the Performance Guarantor has a published Debt
Rating from S&P of at least B+ and from Moody's of at least B1, no such Daily
Report shall be required unless the Percentage Factor exceeds 80%, in which case
a Daily Report shall be required on second Business Day following the 29th day
of each calendar month with respect to such day (or, if such 29th day is not a
Business Day or if there is no such 29th day, in the case of February, the next
succeeding Business Day).

                  (d) Transmission of Portfolio Reports. The Collection Agent
shall transmit each Portfolio Report to each Funding Agent by electronic mail.
In addition, the Collection Agent shall transmit a copy of each such Portfolio
Report to the Administrative Agent and, upon request, each Funding Agent by
facsimile (certified by a Financial Officer of the Collection Agent or such
other employee of the Collection Agent as shall have primary responsibility for
the preparation of such report and shall have been authorized to certify
Portfolio Reports hereunder by a Financial Officer).

                  (e) Notice of Termination Events. The Collection Agent shall
provide to the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent, promptly, and in any
event within one Business Day after a Responsible Officer of the Collection
Agent obtains actual knowledge thereof, notice of any Termination Event or
Incipient Termination Event.

                  (f) Notice of Downgrades. Promptly after a Responsible Officer
of the Collection Agent obtains actual knowledge thereof, the Collection Agent
shall provide to each Funding Agent notice of any downgrade in the Debt Rating
(or the withdrawal by either S&P or Moody's of a Debt Rating) of the Performance
Guarantor, setting forth the Indebtedness affected and the nature of such change
(or withdrawal).

                  (g) Notice of Litigation; Material Adverse Effect. Promptly
after a Responsible Officer of the Collection Agent obtains actual knowledge
thereof, the Collection Agent shall provide to the Administrative Agent and each
Funding Agent notice of:

                        (i) the filing or commencement of, or any written threat
or notice of intention of any person to file or commence, any action, suit or
proceeding, whether at law or in equity or by or before any Official Body or in
arbitration, against the Collection Agent or any of its Subsidiaries as to which
an adverse determination is reasonably probable and which could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

                        (ii) any other development that is not a matter of
general public knowledge and that has had, or could reasonably be expected to
have, a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (h) Other Information. The Collection Agent shall provide to
the Administrative Agent and each Funding Agent, promptly upon request, such
other information respecting the Receivables or the condition or operations,
financial or otherwise, of the Collection Agent (including, without limitation,
information regarding any pending or threatened litigation) as the
Administrative Agent or any Funding Agent may from time to time reasonably
request.

            2.4 Transition to Successor Collection Agent. If replaced as
Collection Agent, TRW U.S. agrees that it will (i) terminate, and cause each
existing Sub-Collection Agent to terminate, its collection activities in a
manner and to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent to facilitate the
transition to a new Collection Agent and (ii) transfer to the Administrative
Agent (or its designee), or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law and
contract) license to the Administrative Agent (or its designee) the use of, all
software used in connection with the collection of the Pool Receivables. To the
extent any such transfer or license would require the payment of any license fee
or other amount, TRW U.S. agrees to pay such fee or other amount out of its own
funds promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent. TRW U.S. shall cooperate
with and assist any successor Collection Agent in the performance of its
responsibilities as Collection Agent (including, without limitation, providing
access to, and transferring, to such successor Collection Agent all records
related to the Collateral and allowing (to the extent permitted by applicable
law and contract) the successor Collection Agent to use all licenses, hardware
or software necessary or desirable to collect or obtain or store information
regarding the Pool Receivables. TRW U.S. irrevocably agrees to act (to the
extent requested to do so by the Administrative Agent) as the data-processing
agent for any successor Collection Agent in substantially the same manner as TRW
U.S. conducted such data-processing functions while it acted as the Collection
Agent.

            2.5 Sub-Collection Agents.

                  (a) As the initial Collection Agent, TRW U.S. hereby appoints
each Seller to be its Sub-Collection Agent with respect to the Pool Receivables
originated by such Seller. Each Seller hereby accepts such appointment and
agrees to act as Sub-Collection Agent in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth herein and in the other Transaction Documents.

                  (b) Each Sub-Collection Agent shall take or cause to be taken
all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Pool
Receivable for which it acts as Sub-Collection Agent from time to time, all in
accordance in all material respects with applicable Laws and in accordance with
the Credit and Collection Policy. In performing its duties as Sub-Collection
Agent, each Sub-Collection Agent shall exercise reasonable care and diligence
and shall use the same care and apply the same policies as it would exercise and
apply if it owned such Pool Receivables and shall act in such manner as it
reasonably deems to be in the best interests of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent. Each Sub-Collection Agent agrees to be bound by the
provisions of Section 2.2(c) to the same extent as if it were the Collection
Agent.

                  (c) Each Sub-Collection Agent shall hold in trust for the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents and each Lender, in
accordance with their respective interests, all documents, instruments and
records (including, without limitation, computer tapes or disks) which evidence
or relate to Pool Receivables or Related Security. Each Sub-Collection Agent
shall mark its master data processing records evidencing the Pool Receivables
with a legend, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, evidencing
that the Pool Receivables have been sold to the Borrower and a security interest
has been granted in favor of the Administrative Agent.

                                       6
<PAGE>

                  (d) To the extent the Administrative Agent is entitled to
exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Collection Agent, each
Sub-Collection Agent acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may
exercise the same rights and remedies against such Sub-Collection Agent with
respect to the Pool Receivables originated by such Sub-Collection Agent. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Sub-Collection Agent hereby
acknowledges and agrees that its appointment as Sub-Collection Agent hereunder
shall automatically terminate upon the appointment of a new Collection Agent in
accordance with the terms hereof. Upon the designation of a successor Collection
Agent, each Seller agrees that it will (i) terminate its collection activities
in a manner and to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent to
facilitate the transition to a new Collection Agent and (ii) transfer to the
Administrative Agent (or its designee), or (to the extent permitted by
applicable Law and contract) license to the Administrative Agent (or its
designee) the use of, all software used by such Seller in connection with the
collection of the Pool Receivables. To the extent any such transfer or license
would require the payment of any license fee or other amount, such Seller agrees
to pay such fee or other amount out of its own funds promptly upon demand by the
Administrative Agent. Each Seller shall cooperate with and assist any successor
Collection Agent in the performance of its responsibilities as Collection Agent
(including, without limitation, providing access to, and transferring, to such
successor Collection Agent all records related to the Collateral and allowing
(to the extent permitted by applicable law and contract) the successor
Collection Agent to use all licenses, hardware or software necessary or
desirable to collect or obtain or store information regarding the Receivables.
Each Seller irrevocably agrees to act (to the extent requested to do so by the
Administrative Agent) as the data-processing agent for any successor Collection
Agent in substantially the same manner as such Seller conducted such
data-processing functions while it acted as a Sub-Collection Agent.

                  (e) On or prior to the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding each Reporting Date, each Sub-Collection Agent shall
deliver a report to the Collection Agent a report (each an "Originator Report")
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-4 with respect to the Receivables for
which it acts as Sub-Collection Agent.

            2.6 Indemnities.

                  (a) Indemnities by Collection Agent. Without limiting any
other rights that the Indemnified Parties may have under the Transaction
Documents or under applicable law, and in consideration of its appointment as
Collection Agent, TRW U.S. hereby agrees to indemnify each Secured Party, the
Borrower and the Transferor (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and
against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities, deficiencies, costs,

Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or the

            other statement made or deemed made by any Collection Agent Party

            Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

                  (iv) the commingling of Collections of Collateral at any time
            by any Collection Agent Party or any Affiliate of a Collection Agent
            Party (other than the Borrower or the Transferor) with other funds;

                  (v) any action by any Collection Agent Party (other than an
            action required by the Transaction Documents) reducing or impairing
            the rights of the Borrower, the Transferor or the Secured Parties
            with respect to any Pool Receivable or the value of any Pool
            Receivable;

                  (vi) any Servicing Fees or other costs and expenses payable to

                  (vii) any claim brought by any Person arising from any

            its obligations under this Agreement;

                  (ix) any failure by any Collection Agent Party to fully comply

            preceding any Release Date or Borrowing Date.

                  (b) Indemnities by Sub-Collection Agents. Without limiting any
other rights that the Indemnified Parties may have under the Transaction
Documents or under applicable law, and in consideration of its appointment as a
Sub-Collection Agent, each Seller hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified
Party from and against any and all Special Indemnified Amounts arising out of or
resulting from any action, omission or breach of such Seller of a type described
in any of clauses (i) through (x) of Section 2.6(a) above (excluding, however,
(a) Special Indemnified Amounts to the extent such Special Indemnified Amounts

                                       8
<PAGE>

resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such
Indemnified Party and (b) any income taxes or any other tax or fee measured by
income incurred by such Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of this
Agreement or the Collateral or any interest of the Secured Parties therein).

                  (c) Construction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, solely for purposes of the indemnification obligations described
in this Section 2.6, any representation, warranty or covenant of a Collection
Agent Party qualified by the occurrence or non-occurrence of a Material Adverse
Effect or similar concepts of materiality shall be deemed to be not so
qualified.

            2.7 Concentration Account. On or prior to the date hereof, the
Collection Agent shall establish, in the name of the Transferor, with an
Eligible Account Bank, a segregated account (the "Concentration Account"),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collection Agent shall cause
all Collections deposited into any Collection Account or otherwise received by
the Collection Agent or any other Transaction Party to be transferred to the
Concentration Account on or prior to the next Business Day following the day on
which such Collections are so deposited or received. If the bank at which the
Concentration Account is maintained ceases to be an Eligible Account Bank, the
Collection Agent shall promptly and in any event within 30 days establish a new
Concentration Account at an Eligible Account Bank and shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent a duly executed Control Agreement covering such
Concentration Account. Upon such establishment and delivery, all funds on
deposit in the prior Concentration Account shall be transferred to the new
Concentration Account. The Collection Agent shall not at any time use more than
one Concentration Account unless such use has been approved in writing by the
Administrative Agent.

            2.8 Collateral Account.

                  (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent
shall cause to be established, in its own name at an Eligible Account Bank a
segregated account (the "Collateral Account"), bearing a designation clearly
indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Secured Parties.

                  (b) Each of the Borrower and the Collection Agent agrees that
the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control over the
Collateral Account and all monies, instruments and other property from time to
time deposited in or credited to the Collateral Account.

                  (c) The Administrative Agent may invest funds on deposit in
the Collateral Account, reinvest proceeds of any such investments which may
mature or be sold, and invest interest or other income received from any such
investments, in each case in such Permitted Investments as the Collection Agent
may select (or, in the absence of any such selection by the Collection Agent, as
the Administrative Agent may select in its sole discretion); provided that each
such Permitted Investment shall have a maturity date no later than the next
succeeding Settlement Date. Such proceeds, interest or income which are not so
invested or reinvested in Permitted Investments shall, except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, be

                                       9
<PAGE>

deposited and held in the Collateral Account; provided that, prior to the
Termination Date, any interest or income in respect of such Permitted
Investments shall, at the direction of the Collection Agent be deposited into
the Concentration Account and applied as Collections in accordance with Section
2.06 of the Receivables Loan Agreement. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its Affiliates shall be liable to the Borrower, the Collection Agent, any
Secured Party or any other Person for, or with respect to, any decline in value
of amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account. Permitted Investments from time
to time purchased and held pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be referred to as
"Collateral Securities" and shall, for purposes of this Agreement and each other
Transaction Document, constitute part of the funds held in the Collateral
Account in amounts equal to their respective outstanding principal amounts. Each
such Permitted Investment shall be made in the name of the Administrative Agent
or its designee.

                  (d) Following the occurrence of any Termination Event, the
Administrative Agent may, at any time or from time to time after funds are
either deposited in the Collateral Account or invested in Collateral Securities,
after selling, if necessary, any Collateral Securities, withdraw funds then held
in the Collateral Account and apply the same in accordance with the priority of
payments set forth in Section 2.07 of the Receivables Loan Agreement. The
Borrower agrees that Permitted Investments are of a type customarily sold on a
recognized market and, accordingly, no notice of sale of any Permitted
Investments shall be required. To the extent notice of sale of any Collateral
Securities shall be required by law, at least ten days' notice to the Borrower
of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private
sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative
Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement
at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice,
be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

                  (e) The Administrative Agent shall have the sole right of
withdrawal with respect to the Collateral Account. None of the Borrower, the
Collection Agent or any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower, or
the Collection Agent shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in
the Collateral Account.

                  (f) The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in
the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Collateral Account and
shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment
substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own
property, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any
parties with respect to any such funds.

                  (g) On the Final Payout Date, any funds remaining on deposit
in the Collateral Account shall be paid to the Borrower.

            2.9 Collection Agent Default. If any one or more of the following
events shall occur (each, a "Collection Agent Default"):

                  (a) (i) any Collection Agent Party or, to the extent that any
            Originator or any Affiliate of an Originator is then a Collection
            Agent Party, such Originator

                                       10
<PAGE>

            or such Affiliate, as applicable, shall fail to observe or perform
            any material term, covenant or agreement under this Agreement or any
            other Transaction Document (other than as referred to in clauses
            (ii) and (iii) of this Section 2.9(a)), and such failure shall
            remain unremedied for ten days after a Responsible Officer of such
            Collection Agent Party has knowledge or obtains notice thereof or
            (ii) the Collection Agent or, to the extent that any Originator or
            any Affiliate of an Originator is then acting a Collection Agent
            Party, such Originator or such Affiliate, as applicable, shall fail
            to make any payment or deposit required to be made by it under this
            Agreement or any other Transaction Document when due and such
            failure remains unremedied for one Business Day, (iii) the
            Collection Agent shall fail to deliver any Weekly Report or Monthly
            Report within two Business Days of the date when due or any Daily
            Report within one Business Day of the date when due or shall fail to
            deliver any other report required to be delivered by it hereunder or
            under the Receivables Loan Agreement within two Business Days after
            a Responsible Officer of the Collection Agent has knowledge or
            obtains notice thereof, or (iv) during any calendar month, the
            Collection Agent shall fail to deliver more than two Weekly Reports
            on the date when due or more than two Daily Reports on the date when
            due; or

                  (b) any representation, warranty, certification or statement
            made by any Collection Agent Party or, to the extent that any
            Originator or any Affiliate of an Originator is then a Collection
            Agent Party, by such Originator or such Affiliate, as applicable, in
            this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or in any report or
            other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall prove to
            have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed
            made; or

                  (c) any Event of Bankruptcy shall occur and be continuing with
            respect to any Collection Agent Party; or

                  (d) there shall have occurred since December 31, 2003 any
            event or condition which has had or could reasonably be expected to
            have a material adverse effect on the ability of any Collection
            Agent Party to perform its obligations under the Transaction
            Documents; or

                  (e) there shall have occurred any other Termination Event of
            the type described in Section 7.01(d) or 7.01(e) of the Receivables
            Loan Agreement; or

                  (f) the Performance Guaranty or this Agreement shall cease,
            for any reason, to be in full force and effect, or any Transaction
            Party shall so assert in writing or the Performance Guarantor or any
            Collection Agent Party shall otherwise seek to terminate or
            disaffirm its obligations under the Performance Guaranty or this
            Agreement;

then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion,
and shall, at the direction of the Required Committed Lenders, designate another
Person to succeed TRW U.S. as the Collection Agent.

                                       11
<PAGE>

            2.10 Servicing Fee. The Collection Agent shall be paid a Servicing
Fee out of Collections available for such purpose pursuant to the Receivables
Loan Agreement and subject to the priorities therein. Each Sub-Collection Agent
shall be paid such fees as the Collection Agent and such Sub-Collection Agent
shall agree from time to time; provided that such fees shall be the sole
responsibility of the Collection Agent and none of the Borrower or any of the
Secured Parties shall have any liability therefor.

            2.11 Power of Attorney. The Collection Agent authorizes the
Administrative Agent, and hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent
as its attorney-in-fact coupled with an interest, with full power of
substitution and with full authority in place of the Collection Agent, following
the occurrence and during the continuation of a Termination Event or Involuntary
Bankruptcy Event, to take any and all steps in the Collection Agent's name and
on behalf of the Collection Agent that are necessary or desirable, in the
determination of the Administrative Agent, to collect amounts due under the
Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) endorsing the Borrower's, the
Collection Agent's, the Transferor's or any Originator's name on checks and
other instruments representing Collections of Collateral, (ii) enforcing the
Receivables and the Related Security and the Collateral Agreements including to
ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance
and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with
therewith and to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings
that the Administrative Agent (or such designee) may deem to be necessary or
desirable for the collection thereof or to enforce compliance with the terms and
conditions of, or to perform any obligations or enforce any rights of the
Borrower in respect of, the Receivables and the Related Security and the
Collateral Agreements; provided that no enforcement action of the type described
in this clause (ii) may be taken by the Administrative Agent if no Involuntary
Bankruptcy Event then exists and the only Termination Event(s) that shall have
occurred are those set forth in Section 7.01(h), (k), (l) or (m) of the
Receivables Loan Agreement.

            2.12 Receivables Loan Agreement Provisions. Each party to this
Agreement hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) Collections shall be applied
as provided in Sections 2.06 and 2.07 of the Receivables Loan Agreement and (ii)
any right or claim of such party to receive any payment from such Collections is
subject to the terms, conditions and priorities of such Sections.

            2.13 Remittance of Other Receivables Payments. Each of the Borrower,
the Collection Agent and the Administrative Agent hereby agree that in the event
any payment is made into a Collection Account, the Concentration Account or the
Collateral Account with respect to a Receivable that is not a Pool Receivable,
such Person shall promptly after becoming aware thereof pay over such payment to
the Originator that owns the relevant Receivable.

                                       13
<PAGE>

reasonably probable and which could reasonably be expected to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

            (g) All Obligors have been instructed to remit all their payments in
respect of Pool Receivables directly to a Collection Account.

            (h) Each Portfolio Report (if prepared by such Collection Agent

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                    COVENANTS

            4.1 Covenants of the Collection Agent Parties. Until the Final
Payout Date:

            (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Each Collection Agent Party will
comply in all respects with all applicable Laws and preserve and maintain its
corporate existence, rights, franchises, qualifications, and privileges except
to the extent that the failure so to comply with such Laws or the failure so to
preserve and maintain such rights, franchises, qualifications, and privileges
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            (b) Records and Books of Account. Each Collection Agent Party will
maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures (including,
without limitation, an ability to recreate records evidencing Pool Receivables
and related Contracts in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof),
and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and other information
reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all Pool Receivables or,
in the case of a Sub-Collection Agent, all Pool Receivables for which it acts as
Sub-Collection Agent (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit
the daily identification of each such Receivable and all Collections of and
adjustments to each such existing Receivable).

            (c) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Each Collection
Agent Party will timely and fully comply in all material respects with the
Credit and Collection Policy

                                       14
<PAGE>

in regard to Purchased Receivables that are treated as or represented by such
Collection Agent Party to be Eligible Receivables.

            (d) Extension or Amendment of Receivables and Contracts. Except as
provided in Section 2.2(c), no Collection Agent Party will extend, amend or
otherwise modify the terms of any Pool Receivable or amend, modify or waive any
term or condition of any Contract related thereto in a manner that could
reasonably be expected to adversely affect the collectability of such Pool
Receivable.

            (e) Change in Credit and Collection Policy. No Collection Agent
Party will make any change in the Credit and Collection Policy, except (i) for
any such change that would not impair the collectibility of any Pool Receivables
in any material respect or otherwise be reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect or (ii) as required by applicable Law. In the event that any
Collection Agent Party makes any material change to the Credit and Collection
Policy, it shall, promptly following such change, provide the Administrative
Agent and each Funding Agent with an updated Credit and Collection Policy and a
summary of all material changes.

            (f) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. No Collection Agent
Party will add or terminate any Collection Account or any Concentration Account
from those listed in Schedule V to the Receivables Loan Agreement, or make any
change in its instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made in respect
of the Receivables or payments to be made to any Collection Account or the
Concentration Account, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice of such addition, termination or change (including an updated Schedule V)
and a fully executed Control Agreement with respect to each new Collection
Account and each new Concentration Account, provided that, the Collection
Account (Lockbox No. 98912; Acct. No. 8188102974) maintained with Bank of
America may be terminated so long as the relevant Obligors are instructed to
make payments to another Collection Account. Each Collection Account and the
Concentration Account shall be maintained at all times in the name of the
Transferor.

            (g) Deposits to Collection Accounts. Each Collection Agent Party
will instruct all Obligors to remit all their payments in respect of Receivables
to a Collection Account (either directly by wire transfer or electronic funds
transfer or by check mailed to a lock-box maintained by the relevant Collection
Account Bank). If any Collection Agent Party shall receive any Collections
directly, such Collection Agent Party shall promptly (and in any event within
one Business Day) cause such Collections to be deposited into a Collection
Account or the Concentration Account. Each Collection Agent Party will use its
reasonable best efforts to prevent funds which do not constitute Collections of
Receivables from being deposited into any Collection Account or the
Concentration Account. Each Collection Agent Party shall instruct each
Collection Account Bank to remit funds on deposit in each Collection Account to
the Concentration Account on a daily basis.

            (h) Control Agreements. The Collection Agent shall cause all
Collection Accounts and the Concentration Account to be subject at all times to
a Control Agreement duly executed by the Collection Agent, the Transferor, the
Administrative Agent and the applicable bank.

                                       15
<PAGE>

            (i) Inspections. Each Collection Agent Party will, from time to time
during regular business hours as requested by the Administrative Agent or any
Funding Agent upon reasonable prior notice, permit the Administrative Agent, any
Funding Agent, or their respective agents or representatives (including
independent public accountants, which may be the Borrower's or the Collection
Agent's independent public accountants), (i) to conduct periodic audits of the
Receivables, the Related Security, the other Collateral and the related books
and records and collections systems of each Collection Agent Party, (ii) to
examine and make copies of and abstracts from all books, records and documents
(including, without limitation, computer tapes and disks) in the possession or
under the control of any Collection Agent Party relating to Receivables, the
Related Security and the other Collateral, including, without limitation, the
Contracts, and (iii) to visit the offices and properties of any Collection Agent
Party for the purpose of examining such materials described in clause (ii)
above, and to discuss matters relating to Receivables, the Related Security and
the other Collateral or any Collection Agent Party's performance under the

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

            5.1 Amendment. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to
any departure by any Collection Agent Party therefrom shall be effective unless
in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the Required Committed
Lenders (and, in the case of any amendment, also signed by the Collection
Agent), and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided,
however, that no consent of the Borrower, TRW U.S. or any Seller shall be
required for any amendment which modifies the representations, warranties,
covenants or responsibilities of the Collection Agent at any time when the
Collection Agent is not TRW U.S. or any Affiliate of TRW U.S. or upon the
replacement of the Collection Agent with a Person who is not TRW U.S. or any
Affiliate of TRW U.S.

            5.2 Notices. All communications and notices provided for hereunder
shall be in writing (including telecopy or electronic facsimile transmission or
similar writing) and shall be given to the other party (i) in the case of the
Borrower, the Collection Agent and the Administrative Agent, at its address or
telecopy number specified for notices pursuant to the Receivables Loan Agreement
and (ii) in the case of any Seller, at its address or telecopy number specified
for notices pursuant to the Originator Purchase Agreement to which it is a party
or, in any such case, at such other address or telecopy number as such party may
hereafter specify for the purposes of notice to such party. Each such notice or
other communication shall be effective (i) if given by telecopy, when such
telecopy is transmitted to the telecopy number specified in this Section 5.2 and
confirmation is received, (ii) if given by mail three Business Days following
such posting, postage prepaid, U.S. certified or registered, (iii) if given by
overnight courier, one Business Day after deposit thereof with a national
overnight courier service, or (iv) if given by any other means, when received at

            5.3 Assignments. No Collection Agent Party may assign any of its
rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Committed Lenders. The
Borrower may assign its rights hereunder only to the Administrative Agent
pursuant to the Receivables Loan Agreement. The Administrative Agent may assign
any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein to any
successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to the terms of the
Receivables Loan Agreement.

            5.4 No Proceedings. Each Collection Agent Party hereby agrees that
it will not institute against the Borrower any proceeding of the type referred
to in the definition of "Event of Bankruptcy" until there shall have elapsed one
year plus one day since the Final Payout Date. Each Collection Agent Party
further agrees that it will not institute against any Conduit Lender any
proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of "Event of Bankruptcy" so
long as any Commercial Paper or other senior indebtedness issued by such Conduit
Lender shall be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one
day since the last day on which any such Commercial Paper or other senior
indebtedness shall have been outstanding.

            5.5 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

            5.6 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same
agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Agreement by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement.

            5.7 Binding Effect; Survival of Termination. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns (including any trustee in bankruptcy). Any
provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing
obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms and shall remain
in full force and effect until the Final Payout Date; provided, however, that
the provisions of Sections 2.6 and 5.4 shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.

            5.8 Consent to Jurisdiction.

            (a) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New
York City in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, and each party hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in
respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New
York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. The
parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may
effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding. The parties hereto agree

                                       17

that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other
manner provided by law.

            (b) Each party hereto consents to the service of any and all process
in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to it
at its address for notices specified or referred to in Section 5.2. Nothing in
this Section 5.8 shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent to serve
legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

            5.9 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL
PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN
TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED
WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.

            5.10 Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement will inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. The Secured Parties are express third party
beneficiaries of this Agreement.

            5.11 Additional Sellers. In the event any Person becomes a "Seller"
under (and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in) the
Originator Purchase Agreement after the date hereof, such Person shall
automatically become a party to this Agreement as a Sub-Collection Agent upon
the execution and delivery of an "Additional Seller Supplement" pursuant to the
Originator Purchase Agreement.
