                          DUTIES OF THE OWNER TRUSTEE

          Section 5.01.  Action Upon Instructions. (a) It is the intention of
                         ------------------------
the Beneficiary that the powers and duties of the Owner Trustee are to be purely
ministerial only, and that the Beneficiary will have the power to direct the
Owner Trustee as to all nonministerial matters concerning the administration of
the Trust (to the extent such matters are within the powers of the Beneficiary).
Accordingly, subject to subsections 5.01(b), 5.01(c), and Article XII, the
                        -------------------  -------      -----------
Beneficiary will direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust and the

specified in any instructions delivered in accordance with subsection 5.01(a);

provided, however, that the Owner Trustee will not be required to take any such
--------  -------
action if the Trustee Bank will have been advised by counsel that such action
(i) is contrary to the terms hereof or of any document contemplated hereby to
which the Trust or the Owner Trustee is a party or is otherwise contrary to law,
or (ii) is reasonably likely to result in liability on the part of the Trustee
Bank, unless the Trustee Bank will have received additional indemnification or
security satisfactory to the Trustee Bank from the Beneficiary against all
costs, expenses and liabilities arising from the Owner Trustee's taking such
action.

          (c)    The Beneficiary will not direct the Owner Trustee to take or
refrain from taking any action contrary to this Agreement, nor will the Owner
Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction.

          (d)    In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the
application of any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or
such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in
conflict with any other applicable provision, or this Agreement permits any
determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the
course of action to be adopted, the Owner Trustee will promptly give notice to
the Beneficiary requesting written instructions as to the course of action to be
adopted and, to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance
with such written instructions received from the Beneficiary, the Owner Trustee
shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner
Trustee will not have received appropriate written instructions within 30 days
of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be
specified in such notice) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain
from taking such action, not inconsistent with

                                      14

this Agreement, as it deems to be in the best interests of the Beneficiary, and

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the Trustee
Bank nor the Owner Trustee, except a Trustee Bank authorized as co-trustee, will
be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of
Delaware if the taking of such action would (i) require the consent or approval
or authorization or order of or the giving of notice to, or the registration
with or taking of any action in respect of, any state or other governmental
authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (ii)
result in any fee, tax or governmental charge under the laws of any jurisdiction
or any political subdivisions thereof in existence on the date hereof other than

of Delaware for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation
of the transactions by the Trustee Bank or the Owner Trustee, as the case may
be, contemplated hereby. The Owner Trustee shall be entitled to obtain advice of
counsel (which advice shall be at the expense of the Beneficiary) to determine
whether any action required to be taken pursuant to the Agreement results in the
consequences described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence.
In the event that said counsel advises the Owner Trustee that such action will
result in such consequences, the Owner Trustee may, or if instructed to do so by
the Beneficiary, shall, appoint an additional trustee pursuant to Section 8.04
                                                                  ------------

connection with, this Agreement, the Trust or any document contemplated hereby
to which the Trust or the Owner Trustee is a party, except as expressly provided
by the terms of this Agreement or in written instructions from the Beneficiary
received pursuant to Section 5.01; and no implied duties or obligations will be
                     ------------
read into this Agreement against the Owner Trustee. Unless otherwise directed by
the Beneficiary in accordance with Section 5.01(a), the Owner Trustee shall have

no obligation or duty to take any action the Trust is authorized and empowered
to take pursuant to Section 2.03(a). The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that
                    ---------------
it will, in its individual capacity and at its own cost and expense, promptly
take all action as may be necessary to discharge any lien, pledge, security
interest or other encumbrance on any part of the Trust Estate which results from
actions by or claims against the Trustee Bank not related to the ownership of
any part of the Trust Estate.

upon, the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Trust Agreement, or (ii) in accordance
with the express terms hereof or with written instructions from the Beneficiary
pursuant to Section 5.01. Unless otherwise directed by the Beneficiary in
            ------------
accordance with Section 5.01(a), the Owner Trustee shall not be required to
                ---------------
perform any obligations or duties of the Trust under the Indenture, which duties
and obligations shall be the sole responsibility of the Beneficiary.

          Section 5.04.  Trust Operation. The operations of the Trust will be

Beneficiary, the Beneficiary's affiliates or any other third person, and will
use stationery and other business forms of the Owner Trustee or the Trust and
not that of the Beneficiary or any of its affiliates, and will use its best

Beneficiary or any affiliates thereof, or (ii) that the assets of the Trust are
available to pay the creditors of the Beneficiary or any affiliates thereof;

Persons; and

          (g)    the Trust will not enter into any voluntary bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding without a finding by the Owner Trustee that the Trust's
liabilities exceeds its assets or that the Trust is unable to pay its debts in a
timely manner as they become due.

          Section 5.05.  Execution of Documents. The Owner Trustee will, at the
                         ----------------------

          Section 10.01. Issuance of Trust Certificates. (a) Promptly following
                         ------------------------------
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the
Trust will issue and deliver to the Beneficiary a certificate of beneficial
ownership of the Trust Estate substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the
                                                           ---------
"Trust Certificate") evidencing the Beneficiary's ownership interest (the
 -----------------
"Ownership Interest") in the Trust.
 ------------------

          (b)    The Trust Certificate will be executed by manual signature on
behalf of the Trust by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. A Trust
Certificate bearing the manual signature of an individual who was, at the time
when such signature was affixed, an authorized officer will bind the Trust,
notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to be so authorized prior to the
delivery of such Trust Certificate. The Trust Certificate will be dated the date
of its execution.

          (c)    The Beneficiary will be entitled to all rights provided to it
under this Agreement and in the Trust Certificate and will be subject to the
terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and in the Trust Certificate.

Section 2.07, or at the office of any agent appointed by it and approved in
------------
writing by the Beneficiary, a register for the registration of the Trust
Certificate. Such register will show the name and address of the holder of the
Trust Certificate, and the Owner Trustee will treat such register as definitive
and binding for all purposes hereunder.

          (e)    When the Trust Certificate is duly executed and issued by the
Trust and duly authenticated by the Owner Trustee in accordance with this
Agreement, the Trust Certificate will be fully paid, validly issued, non-
assessable and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

          Section 10.02. Beneficial Interest; Prohibitions on Transfer. (a) The
                         ---------------------------------------------
Ownership Interest will initially be beneficially owned by MBNA. Transfers of
the Ownership Interest and the Trust Certificate may be made between MBNA and
any other Person who is an Affiliate of MBNA (a "Permitted Affiliate
                                                 -------------------
Transferee") upon delivery to the Master Trust Trustee and the Owner Trustee of
----------
a Master Trust Tax Opinion and an Issuer Tax Opinion, respectively, with respect
to such transfer. The Beneficiary may not sell, participate, transfer, assign,
exchange or otherwise pledge or convey all or any part of its right, title and
interest in and to the Trust Certificate or its Ownership Interest to any other
Person, except (i) to any Permitted Affiliate Transferee, or (ii) to the extent
a corresponding transfer of the Collateral Certificate would be permitted by the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Any purported transfer by the Beneficiary of
all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to the Trust Certificate
or its Ownership Interest to any Person will be effective only upon the issuance
of a Master Trust Tax Opinion

                                      23
<PAGE>

and an Issuer Tax Opinion (each as defined in the Indenture), which will not be
an expense of the Owner Trustee or the Trustee Bank. Any purported transfer by
the Beneficiary of all or any part of its right, title and interest in and to
the Trust Certificate or its Ownership Interest which is not in compliance with
the terms of this Section 10.02 will be null and void.
                  -------------

          (b)    The Trust Certificate will bear a legend setting forth the
restriction on the transferability of the Ownership Interest substantially as
follows:

     "THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED OR
     OTHERWISE PLEDGED OR CONVEYED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF
     THE TRUST AGREEMENT REFERRED TO BELOW. IN ADDITION, THE BENEFICIAL
     INTEREST IN THE TRUST REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN
     AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
     AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY
                   --------------
     NOT BE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OFFERED OR SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
     OF BY THE HOLDER HEREOF UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM
     REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF
     1940, AS AMENDED AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS."

          (c)    The Owner Trustee shall not be required to ascertain whether
any purported transfer of the Ownership Interest and the Trust Certificate
complies with the Securities Act or with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

          Section 10.03. Lost or Destroyed Trust Certificate. If the Trust
                         -----------------------------------

on behalf of the Trust will, upon the written request of the Beneficiary, and
compliance with all applicable terms of this paragraph, execute and deliver to
such holder in replacement thereof a new Trust Certificate dated the same date
as on the Trust Certificate so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen. If the
Trust Certificate being replaced has been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen,
the Beneficiary will furnish to the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required by the Owner Trustee to save the Owner Trustee harmless from any
damage, loss or liability in connection with such Trust Certificate, and the
Owner Trustee may require from the Beneficiary payment of a sum to reimburse the
Owner Trustee for, or to provide funds for, the payment of any costs, fees and
expenses and any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith and
any charges paid or payable by the Owner Trustee.

Trust Estate or the action or inaction of the Owner Trustee, or the Trustee Bank
under this Agreement, and the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, nonacceptance,

the Indemnified Person.

     In case any such action, investigation or proceeding will be brought

shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     The indemnification set forth herein will survive the termination of this
Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee Bank.
