SERVICING OF THE 2009-A LEASES AND 2009-A VEHICLES

     Section 8.01 Identification of 2009-A Leases and 2009-A Vehicles; Securitization
Value. The Servicer hereby identifies as 2009-A SUBI Assets the Leased Vehicles and the Leases
relating to such Leased Vehicles more particularly described in the Schedule of 2009-A Leases and
2009-A Vehicles (respectively, the “2009-A Vehicles” and the “2009-A Leases”). The
Servicer shall calculate the Securitization Value for each 2009-A Lease as of the Cutoff Date.

     Section 8.02 Reallocation and Repurchase of 2009-A Leases and 2009-A Vehicles; Purchase of
Matured Vehicles; Lease Pull-Forwards.

     (a) (i) If the Servicer grants a lease term extension of more than 6 months or an extension
that extends beyond the Note Final Scheduled Payment Date for the Class A-4 Notes, with respect to
any 2009-A Lease, the Servicer shall, on the related Deposit Date, (A) deposit or cause to be
deposited into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account an amount equal to the

2

 

Repurchase Payment and (B) direct the Titling Trustee to either reallocate such 2009-A Lease
and the related 2009-A Vehicle from the 2009-A SUBI to the UTI or cause such 2009-A Lease and
2009-A Vehicle to be conveyed to the Servicer; and (ii) if a Lessee changes the domicile of or
title to a 2009-A Vehicle and such change would be likely to result in the Titling Trust doing
business in a Restricted Jurisdiction, the Titling Trust, or the Titling Trustee on behalf of the
Titling Trust, shall, as an obligation of the Titling Trust and at the direction of the Servicer,
on the related Deposit Date, (A) deposit or cause to be deposited into the 2009-A SUBI Collection
Account, from amounts held by the Titling Trust, an amount equal to the Repurchase Payment and (B)
either reallocate such 2009-A Lease and the related 2009-A Vehicle from the 2009-A SUBI to the UTI
or cause such 2009-A Lease and 2009-A Vehicle to be conveyed to the Servicer.

     (b) The Servicer hereby makes to the other parties hereto and the parties to the SUBI Trust
Agreement the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.06(a) of the Basic
Servicing Agreement as to each 2009-A Lease and 2009-A Vehicle as of the Vehicle Representation
Date. The Servicer also hereby represents and warrants that (i) each 2009-A Lease is an 2009-A
Eligible Lease and (ii) it used no adverse selection procedures in selecting any of the 2009-A
Leases or any of the 2009-A Vehicles for allocation to the 2009-A SUBI. Upon discovery by the
Titling Trustee, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Depositor that any
representation or warranty in this Section 8.02(b) was incorrect as of the Cutoff Date in a
manner that materially adversely affects the interest of the Issuing Entity in the related 2009-A
Lease or 2009-A Vehicle, the entity discovering such incorrectness (if other than the Servicer)
shall give prompt written notice to the Servicer. If the Servicer does not cure in all material
respects the circumstance or condition with respect to which the representation or warranty was
incorrect as of the Cutoff Date prior to the end of the Collection Period which includes the
60th day (or, if the Servicer elects, an earlier date) after the date that the Servicer
discovers such incorrectness (whether pursuant to such notice or otherwise), then the Servicer
shall (i) deposit (or cause to be deposited) into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account an amount
equal to the Repurchase Payment on the Deposit Date following the end of such Collection Period,
and (ii) direct the Titling Trustee to either reallocate such 2009-A Lease and the related 2009-A
Vehicle from the 2009-A SUBI to the UTI or cause such 2009-A Lease and 2009-A Vehicle to be
conveyed to the Servicer.

     (c) Immediately prior to the sale or disposition of a Matured Vehicle or a Defaulted Vehicle,
the Servicer may reallocate such Matured Vehicle or Defaulted Vehicle from the 2009-A SUBI to the
UTI for purposes of implementing NMAC’s like kind exchange program. In connection with such
reallocation, NILT Trust, as the UTI Beneficiary, will cause to be deposited into the 2009-A SUBI
Collection Account the Reallocation Payments no later than two Business Days after such
reallocation, or, if the Monthly Remittance Condition is met, the Servicer shall be permitted to
retain the Reallocation Payments received during a Collection Period until such amounts are
required to be disbursed as set forth in Section 8.03(c). Upon receipt of the Reallocation
Payments, the 2009-A SUBI shall have no claim against or interest in such Matured or Defaulted
Vehicle.

     (d) In connection with the purchase by the Servicer of a Matured Vehicle relating to a 2009-A
Lease pursuant to Section 2.06(f) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, if (i) no Sales
Proceeds Advance has been made, the purchase price of such Matured Vehicle will equal the

3

 

Securitization Value of such 2009-A Lease as of the date of expiration and (ii) a Sales
Proceeds Advance has been made, (A) the purchase price will equal the amount of the Sales Proceeds
Advance, (B) no additional amounts need be remitted by the Servicer, and (C) the Servicer shall be
deemed to have been reimbursed for such Sales Proceeds Advance.

     (e) If any 2009-A Lease and the related 2009-A Vehicle are reallocated to the UTI, until such
time thereafter, if ever, as such Lease and Leased Vehicle are allocated to an Other SUBI, the
Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Related Beneficiaries, the Issuing Entity
and the Titling Trust from and against any and all loss or liability with respect to or resulting
from such 2009-A Lease or 2009-A Vehicle (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel).

     (f) If the Servicer permits a Lease Pull-Forward, all Pull-Forward Payments due and payable by
the Lessee under the Lease will be paid and deposited in the SUBI Collection Account within the
time period required for the Servicer to deposit collections into the SUBI Collection Account;
provided that, if the Servicer waives the Pull-Forward Payment (or any portion thereof) payable by
the Lessee during any Collection Period, the Servicer will be required to deposit the waived amount
of the Pull-Forward Payment into the SUBI Collection Account by the next Deposit Date related to
such Collection Period.

     Section 8.03 Collections and Payment Date Advance Reimbursement.

     (a) The Servicer shall, with respect to SUBI Collections and amounts in respect of the 2009-A
SUBI Certificate, from time to time, determine the respective amounts and recipients and:

     (i) during each Collection Period, in addition to the deposits required by Section
2.07 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, deposit into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account
all Repurchase Payments pursuant to Section 8.02(a) and Section 8.02(b), and
any Reallocation Payments pursuant to Section 8.02(c);

     (ii) on, or prior to each Deposit Date, deposit into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account
all Advances, any Residual Value Surplus from the sale of a Matured Vehicle for which the
Servicer made a Sales Proceeds Advance and any Net Auction Proceeds from the disposition of
a Matured Vehicle at auction for which the Servicer was reimbursed during the related
Collection Period pursuant to Section 8.06; and

     (iii) on each Payment Date, pursuant to the related Payment Date Certificate, allocate
Available Funds on deposit in the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account with respect to the related
Collection Period and instruct the Indenture Trustee to make, no later than 11:00 a.m., New
York City time, or such other time as may be agreed to by the applicable parties, the
following deposits and distributions in the following amounts and order of priority:

     (A) to the Servicer the sum of outstanding (1) Sales Proceeds Advances (x) in
respect of 2009-A Vehicles that were sold during the related Collection Period
(other than a sale to the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.02(d)(ii)), and
(y) that have been outstanding as of the end of that Collection

4

 

Period for at least 90 days and (2) Monthly Payment Advances as to which the
related Lessee has made all or a portion of the advanced Monthly Payment or that
have been outstanding as of the end of the Collection Period for at least 90 days
(collectively, the “Payment Date Advance Reimbursement”);

     (B) to or on behalf of the Servicer, the Servicing Fee in respect of the
related Collection Period, together with any unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of one
or more prior Collection Periods; and

     (C) to the Note Distribution Account, the Reserve Account and Certificate
Distribution Account, as applicable, such distributions in the amounts and order of
priority as set forth in Sections 8.04(a) and 10.01 of the
Indenture.

     (b) Notwithstanding Section 2.07 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall
remit into the SUBI Collection Account the amounts provided for in such Section received during a
Collection Period, by (subject to Section 8.03(c)) the close of business on the second
Business Day after identification.

     (c) Notwithstanding Sections 8.02(c) or 8.03(b) hereof, the Servicer shall be
permitted to retain the amounts provided for in such subsections received during a Collection
Period until the Business Day preceding the Payment Date on which such amounts are required to be
disbursed (or such other date as provided in the Public ABS Transaction referred to below), for so
long as no Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing, and the following requirements are met
(collectively, the “Monthly Remittance Condition”):

     (i) (A) NMAC (or its successors pursuant to Section 5.03(b) of the Basic
Servicing Agreement) is the Servicer, and (B) NMAC’s short-term unsecured debt obligations
are rated at least “Prime-1” by Moody’s, “A-1” by Standard & Poor’s (in each case, so long
as Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s is a Rating Agency);

     (ii) if (A) the Servicer obtains a Servicer Letter of Credit or certain other
arrangements are made that are acceptable to the Rating Agencies and (B) the Trustee and
the Owner Trustee gives prior written notice to each Rating Agency of the obtaining of any
such Servicer Letter of Credit;

     (iii) the Servicer otherwise satisfies each Rating Agency’s requirements; or

     (iv) if the Outstanding Amount is reduced to zero and 100% of the outstanding Trust
Certificates are owned by the Trust, the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an
Affiliate is the Servicer) and their respective Affiliates.

     Pending deposit into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account, SUBI Collections may be employed by
the Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and shall not be segregated from its own
funds. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a subsequent Public ABS Transaction
calls for changes in making monthly deposits to the related collection account, then, if it is
acceptable to each Rating Agency then rating the Notes without a reduction in the rating of any
Class of Notes, the Servicer will no longer be bound by the Monthly Remittance Condition

5

 

hereunder, and will instead be subject to the conditions to making monthly deposits as
required by the subsequent Public ABS Transaction.

     (d) Notwithstanding Sections 2.07(a) and 2.11(a) of the Basic Servicing
Agreement, the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts in accordance with its Customary
Servicing Practices to (i) collect all payments required under each Lease and (ii) cause each
Lessee to make all payments required under its Lease, accompanied by an invoice, payment coupon or
electronic funds transfer notice bearing the lease number to which such payment relates.

     Section 8.04 Net Deposits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
2009-A Servicing Supplement, for so long as NMAC is the Servicer, the Servicer shall be permitted
to deposit into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account only the net amount distributable to the Issuing
Entity, as holder of the 2009-A SUBI Certificate on the related Deposit Date. The Servicer shall,
however, account to the Issuing Entity, the Titling Trustee, the Trust Agent, the Indenture Trustee
(or any successor to the duties of the Indenture Trustee), the Owner Trustee and the Holders of the
Securities as if all of the deposits and distributions described herein were made individually.

     Section 8.05 Servicing Compensation.

     (a) As compensation for the performance of its obligations under the Servicing Agreement, the
Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee.

     (b) The Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation with respect to
the 2009-A SUBI Assets in the form of, among other things, Administrative Charges to the extent not
required for the payment of insurance premiums, taxes, or similar charges allocable to the 2009-A
Leases.

     Section 8.06 Advances.

     (a) If during a Collection Period a Lessee makes a Lessee Partial Monthly Payment, the
Servicer shall make, by deposit into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account on the related Deposit
Date, a Monthly Payment Advance, unless such Advance is not required to be made pursuant to
Section 8.06(c).

     (b) On each Deposit Date, the Servicer shall make, by deposit into the 2009-A SUBI Collection
Account, Sales Proceeds Advances, unless such Advance is not required to be made pursuant to
Section 8.06(c). After the Servicer has made a Sales Proceeds Advance with respect to a
Matured Vehicle, the Issuing Entity shall have no claim against or interest in such Matured Vehicle
or any Net Auction Proceeds resulting from the sale or other disposition thereof, except with
respect to any related Residual Value Surplus. If the Servicer shall sell or otherwise dispose of a
Matured Vehicle after having made a Sales Proceeds Advance, the Issuing Entity may retain all of
such Sales Proceeds Advance, and the Servicer shall retain the related Net Auction Proceeds up to
the Securitization Value of the related 2009-A Lease, and shall deposit the Residual Value Surplus,
if any, into the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account. If the Net Auction Proceeds are less than the
Securitization Value of the related 2009-A Lease, the Servicer may deduct the difference from SUBI
Collections in respect of one or more future Collection Periods

6

 

and retain such amount as reimbursement for the outstanding portion of the related Sales
Proceeds Advance. If the Servicer has not sold a Matured Vehicle within six calendar months after
it has made a Sales Proceeds Advance, it shall be reimbursed for such Sales Proceeds Advance from
the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account. Within six months of receiving such reimbursement, if the
related 2009-A Vehicle has not been sold, the Servicer shall, if permitted by applicable law, cause
such 2009-A Vehicle to be sold at auction and shall remit the proceeds associated with such auction
sale to the 2009-A SUBI Collection Account.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be
required to make an Advance only to the extent that it determines that such Advance will be
recoverable from future payments on or in respect of the related 2009-A Lease or 2009-A Vehicle.

     Section 8.07 Third Party Claims. In addition to the requirements set forth in
Section 2.14 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall immediately notify the
Depositor (in the event that NMAC is not acting as Servicer) and the Indenture Trustee (or any
successor to the duties of the Indenture Trustee) upon learning of a claim or Lien of whatever kind
of a third party that would materially and adversely affect the interests of the Depositor or the
Issuing Entity with respect to the 2009-A SUBI Assets.

     Section 8.08 Contingent and Excess Liability Insurance Policy. So long as any
Securities are outstanding, the Servicer shall maintain and pay when due all premiums with respect
to, and the Servicer may not terminate or cause the termination of, the Contingent and Excess
Liability Insurance Policy unless (i) a replacement Insurance Policy is obtained that provides
coverage against third party claims that may be raised against the Titling Trust, the Titling
Trustee on behalf of the Titling Trust or the Issuing Entity in an amount at least equal to $1
million combined single limit per occurrence and excess coverage of at least $15 million combined
single limit each occurrence and in the aggregate, without limit on the number of occurrences in
any policy period (which Insurance Policy may be a blanket Insurance Policy covering the Servicer
and one or more of its Affiliates) and (ii) each Rating Agency receives prior written notice of
such termination and any replacement insurance policy. The obligations of the Servicer pursuant to
this Section shall survive any termination of the Servicer’s other obligations under the Servicing
Agreement until such time as claims can no longer be brought that would be covered by such
Insurance Policies, whether as a result of the expiration of relevant statutes of limitations or
otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall only be required to maintain the
Contingent and Excess Liability Insurance Policy that is required to be maintained by the Servicer
in the most recent Public ABS Transaction; provided, that if no such Contingent and Excess
Liability Insurance Policy is required to be maintained in the most recent Public ABS Transaction,
then no such Contingent and Excess Liability Insurance Policy shall be required hereunder.

     Section 8.09 Reporting by the Servicer; Delivery of Certain Documentation.

     (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, and periodically thereafter as required in order to
update the contents thereof upon any changes in the matters certified therein, the Servicer shall
furnish to the Titling Trustee and the Related Beneficiary an Officer’s Certificate listing the
officers of the Servicer involved in, or responsible for, the servicing of the 2009-A Leases.

7

 

     (b) On the tenth calendar day of each month (or, if the 10th day is not a Business
Day, the next succeeding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Titling Trustee and each
Related Beneficiary a Settlement Statement, substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit
A hereto for the immediately preceding Collection Period.

     Section 8.10 Accountants’ Attestation and Other Reports. On or before the last day of
the third month after the end of the fiscal year of the Servicer, beginning with June 30, 2009, the
Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants, who may also render other
services to the Servicer or to its Affiliates, to deliver to the Issuing Entity, the Indenture
Trustee and each Rating Agency a report that such firm has audited the consolidated financial
statements of the Servicer in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, that such firm
is independent of the Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and expressing such firm’s
opinion thereon. So long as the Depositor is filing any reports with respect to the Issuing Entity
under the Exchange Act, on or before the last day of the third month after the end of the fiscal
year of the Servicer, beginning with June 30, 2010, the Servicer shall cause a firm of independent
certified public accountants to render an attestation report as to the Servicer’s Assessment Report
of its compliance with the applicable servicing criteria set forth under Item 1122 of Regulation AB
during the Servicer’s preceding fiscal year (or since the date of the issuance of the Notes in the
case of the first such statement). The form of attestation report may be replaced by any similar
form using any standards that are now or in the future in use by servicers of comparable assets or
which otherwise comply with any note, regulation, “no action” letter or similar guidelines
promulgated by the Commission.

     Section 8.11 Servicer’s Assessment Report; Annual Servicer’s Compliance Statement;
Officer’s Certificate.

     (a) So long as the Depositor is filing any reports with respect to the Issuing Entity under
the Exchange Act, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each

year of the Servicer, beginning June 30, 2010, a report assessing the Servicer’s compliance with

     (b) The Servicer shall also deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each of

respect to the Plans to each Rating Agency, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee.

     Section 8.12 Servicer Defaults; Termination of Servicer.

     (a) Each of the following acts or occurrences constitutes a “Servicer Default” under
the Servicing Agreement with respect to the 2009-A SUBIs:

     (i) the Servicer fails to deliver, or cause to be delivered, any required payment to
the Indenture Trustee for distribution to the Noteholders or to the Owner Trustee for
distribution to the Trust Certificateholders, which failure continues for five Business Days
after discovery of such failure by an officer of the Servicer or receipt by the Servicer of
written notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee, or Noteholders or Trust
Certificateholders, as applicable, evidencing at least a Majority Interest in the applicable
Securities (which for this purpose includes Trust Certificates held by the Issuing Entity,
the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an Affiliate is the Servicer) and their
respective Affiliates), voting together as a single class;

     (ii) the Servicer fails to duly observe or perform in any material respect any of its
covenants or agreements in the Servicing Agreement not otherwise covered in this Section
8.12(a), which failure materially and adversely affects the rights of a Holder of the
2009-A SUBI Certificate, the Noteholders or Trust Certificateholders, as applicable, and
which continues unremedied for 60 days (or for such longer period not in excess of 90 days
as may be reasonably necessary to remedy such failure; provided that (A) such failure is
capable of remedy within 90 days or less and (B) a Majority Interest in the applicable
Securities consents to such longer cure period) after receipt by the Servicer of written
notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee or the related holders evidencing at least a
Majority Interest in the applicable Securities or such default becomes known to the
Servicer;

     (iii) any representation, warranty, or statement of the Servicer made in the Servicing
Agreement, any other Basic Document to which the Servicer is a party or by which it is bound
or any certificate, report or other writing delivered pursuant to the Servicing Agreement
that proves to be incorrect in any material respect when made, which failure materially and
adversely affects the rights of a Holder of the 2009-A SUBI Certificate or the holders of
the Notes, or the Trust Certificateholders, continues unremedied for 60 days (or for such
longer period not in excess of 90 days as may be reasonably necessary to remedy such
failure; provided that (A) such failure is capable of remedy within 90 days or less and (B)
a Majority Interest in the applicable Securities consents to such longer cure period) after
receipt by the Servicer of written notice thereof

9

 

from the Titling Trustee or the related holders evidencing a Majority Interest in the
applicable Securities, or such default becomes known to the Servicer;

     (iv) (A) the existence of any Proceeding in, or the entry of a decree or order for
relief by, a court or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer in an
involuntary case under the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter in effect, (B) the
appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, or other
similar official with respect to the Servicer or of any substantial part of its property or
(C) the ordering of the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Servicer, and in
each case, the continuance of any such Proceeding unstayed and in effect for a period of 90
consecutive days, or immediately upon entry of any decree or order; or

     (v) the Servicer (A) applies for or consents to the appointment of, or the taking of
possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee, or liquidator of itself or of all or a
substantial part of its property, (B) is generally unable to pay its debts as they become
due, (C) makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (D) commences a voluntary
case under the federal bankruptcy laws (E) is adjudicated to be bankrupt or insolvent, (F)
files a petition seeking to take advantage of any other law providing for the relief of
debtors, or (G) takes any corporate action for the purpose of effecting any of the
foregoing;

provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of the Servicing
Agreement, (i) for the purpose of determining what constitutes a Servicer Default with respect to
the 2009-A SUBI, the provisions contained in this Section 8.12(a) shall replace in their
entirety the provisions contained in Section 4.01(a) of the Basic Servicing Agreement and
(ii) any Servicer Default with respect to the 2009-A SUBI shall not constitute a Servicing Default
with respect to any other Sub-Trust and any Servicing Default (as such term is defined in the Basic
Servicing Agreement) with respect to any other Sub-Trust shall constitute a Servicer Default (as
such term is defined in the Basic Servicing Agreement) only with respect to such Sub-Trust and not
with respect to the 2009-A SUBI.

     (b) Upon the occurrence of any Servicer Default, the Servicer, in addition to complying with
the notice requirements of Section 4.01(b) of the Basic Servicing Agreement (except that
references therein to Registered Pledgees shall mean each Registered Pledgee of the 2009-A SUBI
Certificate), shall provide to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee prompt notice of any (i)
Servicer Default or (ii) event or condition that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time,
or both, would become a Servicer Default, accompanied in each case by a description of the nature
of the default and the Servicer’s efforts to remedy the same.

     (c) In addition to the provisions of Section 4.01(c) of the Basic Servicing Agreement,
if a Servicer Default shall have occurred and is continuing with respect to the 2009-A SUBI, the
Titling Trustee, on behalf of the Titling Trust, shall, at the direction of the Required Related
Holders, by notice given to the Servicer, each Rating Agency, the Related Beneficiary and the
holders of the Rated Securities, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this
2009-A Servicing Supplement in accordance with such Section. In the event that the Servicer is
removed as servicer with respect to servicing the 2009-A SUBI Assets, subject to the consent of the
Titling Trustee, the Required Related Holders shall appoint a successor Servicer. The

10

 

successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable
to the Titling Trustee. Such successor Servicer shall be approved by the Titling Trustee, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.01(e)
of the Basic Servicing Agreement, with respect to any Servicer Default related to the 2009-A SUBI
Assets, the Titling Trustee, acting on the direction of the Required Related Holders, may waive any
default of the Servicer in the performance of its obligations under the Servicing Agreement and its
consequences with respect to the 2009-A SUBI and, upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to
exist and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every
purpose of the Servicing Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default
or impair any right consequent thereto. For purposes of this Section, so long as the Lien of the
Indenture is in place, the Required Related Holders shall be deemed to be the Indenture Trustee (as
Registered Pledgee of the 2009-A SUBI Certificate), acting at the direction of the Required
Percentage of the Noteholders and thereafter, the Owner Trustee, acting at the direction of the
Required Percentage of the Trust Certificateholders (which for this purpose shall include Trust
Certificates owned by the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an
Affiliate is the Servicer) and any of their respective Affiliates) until the Certificate Balance
has been reduced to zero.

     (d) If the Servicer is removed with respect to servicing the 2009-A SUBI Assets, the Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement for any outstanding Advances made pursuant to this 2009-A
Servicing Supplement, to the extent of the funds available therefor with respect to all Advances
made by the Servicer.

     Section 8.13 Servicer Representations and Warranties. Effective as of the date hereof,
the Servicer hereby reaffirms the representations and warranties set forth in Section
2.06(a) and Section 5.01 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, except that references to
“this Agreement” shall be deemed to refer to the Servicing Agreement, as such term is defined
herein.

     Section 8.14 Compliance with Regulation AB. The Servicer agrees to perform all duties
and obligations applicable to or required of the Issuing Entity set forth in Schedule A attached
hereto and made a part hereof in all respects and makes the representations and warranties therein
applicable to it.

     Section 8.15 Additional Covenants of Servicer.

     (a) If the aggregate Securitization Value of 2009-A Leases that have been extended and that
also constitute Hybrid Chattel Paper exceeds 9.0% of the outstanding aggregate Securitization Value
of the 2009-A Leases and related 2009-A Vehicles, and if such excess amount is not otherwise
reduced prior to the end of the second Collection Period following such discovery (or, if the
Servicer elects, an earlier date), the Servicer will purchase 2009-A Leases and the related 2009-A
Vehicles having a sufficient aggregate Securitization Value to reduce the aggregate Securitization
Value of 2009-A Leases that have been extended and that also constitute Hybrid Chattel Paper to
less than 9.0% of the then outstanding Securitization Value of the 2009-A Leases and related 2009-A
Vehicles.

     (b) Notwithstanding the forgoing, if (a) the Servicer or the Titling Trust employs processes
and procedures to convert tangible “records” evidencing modifications of 2009-A

11

 

Leases that were originated as “electronic chattel paper” to electronic “records” (as such
terms are used in the UCC) and (b) the Servicer and the Titling Trust (i) deliver to the Rating
Agencies a written opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Rating Agencies,
to the effect that, such processes and procedures so employed satisfy the requirements of the UCC
such that the Titling Trust or its agent has control of both the original electronic contract and
the electronic “records” that resulted from the conversion or (ii) otherwise satisfy the Rating
Agencies that the Servicer’s or the Titling Trust’s processes and procedures are sufficient to
perfect the Titling Trust’s or its agent’s security interest in the 2009-A Leases, then such
“records” will no longer constitute Hybrid Chattel Paper.

ARTICLE NINE

MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 9.01 Termination of Servicing Supplement. This 2009-A Servicing Supplement
shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the 2009-A SUBI or (ii) the
resignation or removal of the Servicer with respect to the 2009-A SUBI in accordance with the terms
of the Servicing Agreement. Any such termination hereunder shall effect a termination only with
respect to the 2009-A SUBI Assets and not as to Trust Assets allocated to any other Sub-Trust, and
shall not effect a termination of the Basic Servicing Agreement or any other supplement to the
Basic Servicing Agreement.

     Section 9.02 Governing Law. This 2009-A Servicing Supplement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to any
otherwise applicable principles of conflict of laws.

     Section 9.03 Amendment.

     (a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Basic Servicing Agreement, the Basic Servicing
Agreement, as supplemented by this 2009-A Servicing Supplement, to the extent that it relates
solely to the 2009-A SUBI and the 2009-A SUBI Assets, may be amended in accordance with this
Section 9.03.

     (b) Any term or provision of this 2009-A Servicing Supplement may be amended by the parties
hereto, without the consent of any other Person; provided that (i) either (A) any amendment
that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders shall require the consent of
Noteholders evidencing not less than a Majority Interest of the Notes voting together as a single
class or (B) such amendment shall not, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer
delivered to the Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect the interests of the
Noteholders, and (ii) any amendment that adversely affects the interests of the Trust
Certificateholder, Titling Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner
Trustee shall require the prior written consent of the Persons whose interests are adversely
affected; provided, further that an opinion of counsel is delivered to the Titling
Trustee to the effect that after such amendment, for federal income tax purposes, the Titling Trust
will not be treated as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation
and Notes will properly be characterized as indebtedness that is secured by the assets of the
Issuing Entity. An amendment shall be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the interests
of the

12

 

Noteholders if the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to such amendment and the
Officer’s Certificate described in the preceding sentence is provided to the Indenture Trustee. The
consent of the Trust Certificateholder, the Delaware Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be deemed
to have been given if the Servicer does not receive a written objection from such Person within 10
Business Days after a written request for such consent shall have been given. The Titling Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that
affects the Titling Trustee’s or the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or
immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall (i) reduce the interest rate or
principal amount of any Note, or change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest
in any Note, or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, without the consent of the Holder of
such Note or (ii) reduce the Outstanding Amount, the Holders of which are required to consent to
any matter without the consent of the Holders of at least a Majority Interest of the Notes which
were required to consent to such matter before giving effect to such.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any term or provision of this 2009-A
Servicing Supplement may be amended by the parties hereto without the consent of any of the
Noteholders or any other Person to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be necessary or
advisable in order to comply with or obtain more favorable treatment under or with respect to any
law or regulation or any accounting rule or principle (whether now or in the future in effect); it
being a condition to any such amendment that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied
and the Officer’s Certificate described in Section 9.03(b)(i)(B) is delivered to the
Indenture Trustee.

     (e) Any term or provision of this 2009-A Servicing Supplement may also be amended by the
parties hereto without the consent of any Noteholder or any other Person to (i) change the formula
for determining the Reserve Account Requirement or (i) add a supplemental required Reserve Account
amount and require immediate payments and distributions to the Reserve Account up to an amount
equal to the sum of the Reserve Account Requirement and such supplemental required Reserve Account
amount upon (A) satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, and (B) delivery by the Servicer to
the Indenture Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate stating that such amendment will not materially
and adversely affect the interests of any Noteholder.

     (f) It shall not be necessary for the consent of any Person pursuant to this Section for such
Person to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such
Person consents to the substance thereof.

     (g) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this 2009-A SUBI Servicing Supplement, the
Servicer shall provide each Rating Agency, the Trust Certificateholder, the Depositor, the Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with written notice of the substance of such amendment. No later
than 10 Business Days after the execution of any amendment to this 2009-A SUBI Servicing
Supplement, the Servicer shall furnish a copy of such amendment to each Rating Agency, the Trust
Certificateholder, Titling Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
Trustee.

13

 

     (h) None of U.S. Bank, as trustee of NILT Trust and as Trust Agent, NILT, Inc., nor the
Indenture Trustee shall be under any obligation to ascertain whether a Rating Agency Condition has
been satisfied with respect to any amendment. When the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with
respect to such amendment, the Servicer shall deliver to a Responsible Officer of U.S. Bank, NILT,
Inc. and the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to that effect, and U.S. Bank National
Association. NILT, Inc. and the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely upon the Officer’s
Certificate from the Servicer that a Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to
such amendment.

     Section 9.04 Relationship of this 2009-A Servicing Supplement to Other Trust
Documents. Unless the context otherwise requires, this 2009-A Servicing Supplement and the
other Trust Documents shall be interpreted so as to give full effect to all provisions hereof and
thereof. In the event of any actual conflict between the provisions of this 2009-A Servicing
Supplement and (i) the Titling Trust Agreement, with respect to the servicing of any Trust Assets,

Agreement, the provisions of this 2009-A Servicing Supplement shall control.

     Section 9.09 Third-Party Beneficiaries. The Issuing Entity, each Holder of the 2009-A
SUBI, each Related Beneficiary, and each Registered Pledgee shall be third-party beneficiaries of
the Servicing Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in the Servicing Agreement, no other Person
shall have any rights hereunder. For purposes of the Servicing Agreement, this Section replaces
Section 6.12 of the Basic Servicing Agreement in its entirety.

     Section 9.10 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in
exercising, on the part of any party hereto, any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power,

right, remedy, power, or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers, and privileges herein provided

14

 

are cumulative and not exhaustive of any rights, remedies, powers, and privileges provided at

except as duly authorized in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

     (b) The initial sole purpose of the Issuing Entity is to conserve the Owner Trust Estate and
collect and disburse the periodic income therefrom for the use and benefit of the Trust
Certificateholders, and in furtherance of such purpose to engage in the following ministerial
activities:

          (i) to issue the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Trust Certificates pursuant to
this Agreement;

2

 

          (ii) to acquire the 2009-A SUBI Certificate from the Depositor and the other property of
the Owner Trust Estate in exchange for (A) the issuance of the Notes to the Depositor, (B)

          (iii) to pay interest on and principal of the Notes;

          (iv) to assign, grant, transfer, pledge mortgage and convey the Owner Trust Estate
pursuant to the Indenture to the Indenture Trustee as security for the Notes and to hold,
manage and distribute to the Trust Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
any portion of the Owner Trust Estate released from the Lien of, and remitted to the Issuing
Entity pursuant to, the Indenture;

          (v) to enter into and perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which the
Issuing Entity is a party;

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

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

     (c) The Issuing Entity shall not engage in any activity other than in connection with the

Documents.

     SECTION 2.04 Appointment of Owner Trustee. The Depositor hereby appoints the Owner
Trustee as trustee of the Issuing Entity effective as of the date hereof, to have all the rights,
powers and duties set forth herein, and the Owner Trustee hereby accepts such appointment.

     SECTION 2.05 Liability of the Trust Certificateholders. No Trust Certificateholder
shall have any personal liability for any liability or obligation of the Issuing Entity, solely by
reason of it being a Trust Certificateholder.

     SECTION 2.06 Initial Capital Contribution of Owner Trust Estate. The Owner Trustee
hereby acknowledges receipt from the Depositor in connection with the Initial Trust Agreement of
the sum of $1.00, which constituted the initial Owner Trust Estate and shall be deposited in the

3

 

therefrom for the use and benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, who are intended to be
“beneficial owners” within the meaning of the Statutory Trust Statute, subject to the Lien of the
Indenture Trustee and the obligations of the Issuing Entity under the Basic Documents. It is the
intention of the parties hereto that the Issuing Entity constitutes a statutory trust under the
Statutory Trust Statute and that this Agreement constitutes the governing instrument of such
statutory trust. Consistent with Section 11.01, it is the intention of the parties hereto
that, solely for income and franchise tax purposes, the Issuing Entity shall be treated as a
division or branch of the Trust Certificateholder. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner
Trustee shall have all rights, powers and duties set forth herein and under Delaware law for the
purpose and to the extent necessary to accomplish the purpose of the Issuing Entity as set forth in
Sections 2.03(a) and 2.03(b). At the direction of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee
caused to be filed the Certificate of Trust pursuant to the Statutory Trust Statute, and the Owner
Trustee shall file or cause to be filed such amendments thereto as shall be necessary or
appropriate to satisfy the purposes of this Agreement and as shall be consistent with the
provisions hereof.

shall be vested at all times in the Issuing Entity as a separate legal entity.

     SECTION 2.09 Situs of Issuing Entity. The Issuing Entity shall be located and
administered in the state of Delaware. All bank accounts maintained by the Owner Trustee on behalf
of the Issuing Entity shall be located in the states of California, Delaware or New York. The
Issuing Entity shall not have any employees in any state other than Delaware; provided,
however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit the Owner Trustee from having
employees within or without the state of Delaware.

     SECTION 2.10 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor. The Depositor hereby
represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee as of the Closing Date that:

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

     (b) Due Qualification. The Depositor has been duly qualified to do business as a
limited liability company in good standing, and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals
in all jurisdictions in which the conduct of its business requires such qualifications, except when
the failure to have any such license, approval or qualification would not have a material adverse
effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Depositor or would not have a material
adverse effect on the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

     (c) Power and Authority. The Depositor (i) has the power and authority to execute and
deliver this Agreement and to carry out its terms; (ii) had, immediately prior to the sale and
transfer contemplated by the Trust SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement, good title to and is the
sole legal and beneficial owner of the 2009-A SUBI Certificate, free and clear of Liens and claims;
(iii) has full power and authority to transfer the 2009-A SUBI Certificate and deposit the same
with the Issuing Entity; (iv) duly authorized such transfer and deposit to the Issuing Entity

4

 

by all necessary action; and (v) duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by all necessary action.

     (d) Binding Obligation. This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Depositor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be subject
to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other
similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity, regardless
of whether such enforceability shall be considered in a proceeding in equity or law.

     (e) No Violation. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and the fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement do not conflict with or breach any of the terms
or provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the
certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Depositor (together, the
“Depositor’s Formation Documents”), any material indenture, agreement or other instrument
to which the Depositor is a party or by which it shall be bound; nor result in the creation or
imposition of any material Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such
indenture, agreement or other instrument (other than the Basic Documents); nor violate any law or,
to the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Depositor
of any court or of any federal or State regulatory body, administrative agency or other
governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties, which
breach, default, conflict, Lien or violation in any case would have a material adverse effect on
the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

     (f) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending, or to the
Depositor’s knowledge, threatened, before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or
other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties: (i)
asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents to which it is
party; (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the Trust Certificates or the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Basic
Documents to which it is a party; (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that would be likely
materially and adversely to affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under, or
the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents to which it
is a party; or (iv) relating to the Depositor and that would be likely materially and adversely to
affect the federal income tax or any state income tax attributes of the Issuing Entity, the Notes
or the Trust Certificates.

     (g) Independent Manager. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Depositor’s
Formation Documents, the Depositor shall ensure that at least one manager of the Depositor shall be
an Independent Manager.

     SECTION 2.11 Power of Attorney. Pursuant to the Trust Administration Agreement, the
Owner Trustee has authorized the Administrative Agent to perform certain of its administrative
duties hereunder, including duties with respect to the management of the Owner Trust Estate, and in
connection therewith hereby grants the Administrative Agent its revocable power of attorney. Each
Trust Certificateholder by such Holder’s acceptance of any Trust Certificate or beneficial interest
therein, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have granted power of attorney

5

 

to the
Administrative Agent for purposes of actions taken or to be taken with respect to the Trust
Certificates.

Person except in accordance with Sections 3.04 and 3.10 and any attempted sale,
pledge, exchange or transfer (each referred to hereinafter as a “transfer”) in violation of such
Sections shall be null and void. The Trust Certificate shall be issued in the name of the
Depositor. Upon delivery to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar of a
letter in the form of Exhibit C, any Trust Certificate shall be reissued in the name and in the
denomination set forth in such letter.

     (b) The Trust Certificates may be printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or
otherwise produced, and may be executed on behalf of the Issuing Entity by manual or facsimile
signature of an Authenticating Agent. Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures
of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to
sign on behalf of the Issuing Entity, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefits of this
Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not hold such
offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates. If registration of a
transfer of a Trust Certificate is permitted pursuant to Section 3.04 and Section
3.10, the transferee of such Trust Certificate shall become a Trust Certificateholder and shall
be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Trust Certificateholder hereunder,
upon such transferee’s acceptance of a Trust Certificate duly registered in such transferee’s name
pursuant to Section 3.04.

     SECTION 3.03 Authentication and Delivery of Trust Certificates. Concurrently with the
transfer of the 2009-A SUBI Certificate to the Issuing Entity, the Owner Trustee shall cause to be
executed on behalf of the Issuing Entity the Trust Certificate in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the Initial Trust Certificate Balance, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written
order of the Depositor, in authorized denominations, evidencing the entire ownership of the Issuing
Entity. No Trust Certificate shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Agreement, or shall
be valid for any purpose, unless there shall appear on such Trust Certificate a certificate of
authentication, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or
its Authenticating Agent, by manual or facsimile signature; and such authentication shall
constitute conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Trust Certificate shall have been

6

 

duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Trust Certificates shall be dated the date of their
authentication. Upon issuance, execution and delivery pursuant to the terms hereof, the Trust
Certificates shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. Wilmington Trust Company shall
be the initial Authenticating Agent of the Owner Trustee hereunder, and all references herein to
authentication by the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to include the Authenticating Agent.

     SECTION 3.04 Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

     (a) The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency
maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, a register (the “Certificate Register”), in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall
provide for the registration of Trust Certificates and, if and to the extent transfers are
permitted pursuant to Section 3.04(b) and Section 3.10, the registration of
transfers of Trust Certificates. No transfer of a Trust Certificate shall be recognized except upon
registration of such transfer. Wilmington Trust Company is hereby appointed as the initial
Certificate Registrar. The Certificate Registrar hereby agrees to notify the Paying Agent in
writing of any changes to the Registered Holders of the Trust Certificates. If the Certificate
Registrar shall for any reason become unable to act as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate
Registrar shall give prompt written notice to such effect to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and
the Servicer. The Owner Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor, which shall be another trust
company or bank, and shall agree to act in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
applicable to it as successor Certificate Registrar under this Agreement.

     (b) Each Trust Certificate shall bear a legend regarding transfers to the effect of the legend
on the form of Trust Certificate attached as Exhibit A hereto, unless determined otherwise
by the Servicer (as certified to the Certificate Registrar in an Officer’s Certificate) consistent
with applicable law.

     If and to the extent transfers are permitted pursuant to Section 3.10, as a condition
to the registration of any transfer of a Trust Certificate, the prospective transferee shall be
required to represent in writing to the Owner Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar
the following:

          (i) It has neither acquired nor will it transfer any Trust Certificate it purchases (or
any interest therein) or cause any such Trust Certificates (or any interest therein) to be
marketed on or through an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section
7704(b)(1) of the Code, including, without limitation, an over-the counter-market or an
interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations.

          (ii) It either (A) is not, and will not become, a partnership, Subchapter S corporation
or grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) is such an entity, but none of
the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such transferee have
allowed or caused, or will allow or cause, 50% or more (or such other percentage as the
Depositor may establish prior to the time of such proposed transfer) of the value of such
interests to be attributable to such transferee’s ownership of Trust Certificates.

7

 

          (iii) It understands that no subsequent transfer of the Trust Certificates is permitted
unless (A) such transfer is of a Trust Certificate with a denomination of at least $250,000,
(B) it causes its proposed transferee to provide to the Issuing Entity and the Certificate.
Registrar a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, or such other written
statement as the Depositor shall prescribe and (C) the Depositor consents in writing to the
proposed transfer, which consent shall be granted unless the Depositor determines that such
transfer would create a risk that the Issuing Entity or the Titling Trust would be classified
for federal or any applicable state tax purposes as an association (or a publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation; provided, however, that any attempted
transfer that would either cause (1) the number of registered holders of Trust Certificates
to exceed 95 or (2) the number of holders of direct or indirect interests in the Titling
Trust to exceed 50, shall be a void transfer.

          (iv) It understands that the Opinion of Counsel to the Issuing Entity that the Issuing
Entity is not a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation is dependent in part on
the accuracy of the representations in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

          (v) It is not a Benefit Plan, will not acquire or hold the Trust Certificates being
transferred on behalf of or with “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section
2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of a Benefit Plan, and is not a Person
acting on behalf of such a Benefit Plan nor using the assets of such a Benefit Plan to effect
such transfer;

          (vi) If it is a governmental plan, foreign plan or any other plan that is subject to any
Similar Law, its acquisition, holding and disposition of the Trust Certificates will not
result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under, or a violation of, Similar Law.

          (vii) It is a Person who is either (A)(1) a citizen or resident of the United States,
(2) a corporation, partnership or other entity organized in or under the laws of the United
States or any political subdivision thereof or (3) a Person not described in (A)(1) or (2)
whose ownership of the Trust Certificates is effectively connected with such Person’s conduct
of a trade or business within the United States (within the meaning of the Code) and its
ownership of any interest in a Trust Certificate will not result in any withholding
obligation with respect to any payments with respect to the Trust Certificates by any Person
(other than withholding, if any, under Section 1446 of the Code) or (B) an estate or trust
the income of which is includible in gross income for federal income tax purposes, regardless
of source or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary
supervision of the administration of the trust and one or more “U.S. persons” (as such term
is defined in the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.
It agrees that it will provide a certification of non-foreign status signed under penalty of
perjury and, alternatively, that if it is a Person described in clause (A)(3) above, it will
furnish to the Depositor and the Owner Trustee a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI and a new
IRS Form W-8ECI upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form (and
such other certifications, representations or Opinions of Counsel as may be requested by the
Depositor and the Owner Trustee).

8

 

          (viii) It understands that any purported transfer of any Trust Certificate (or any
interest therein) in contravention of any of the restrictions and conditions in this Section
shall be void, and the purported transferee in such transfer shall not be recognized by the
Issuing Entity or any other Person as a Trust Certificateholder for any purpose.

     (c) By acceptance of any Trust Certificate, the related Trust Certificateholder specifically
agrees with and represents to the Depositor, the Issuing Entity and Certificate Registrar that no
transfer of such Trust Certificate shall be made unless the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws are complied with, or such transfer is
exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act because the transfer satisfies
one of the following:

          (i) Such transfer is in compliance with Rule 144A, to a transferee who the transferor
reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer that is purchasing for its own account
or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer and to whom notice is given that such
transfer is being made in reliance upon Rule 144A and (A) the transferor thereof executes and
delivers to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar, a Rule 144A certificate
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B and (B) the transferee executes and delivers
to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar an investment letter substantially in the form
attached as Exhibit C.

          (ii) After the appropriate holding period, such transfer is pursuant to an exemption
from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act and
the transferee, if requested by the Depositor or the Certificate Registrar, delivers an
Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor.

     (d) The Depositor shall make the Rule 144A Information available to the prospective transferor
and transferee of a Trust Certificate. The Rule 144A Information shall include any or all of the
following items requested by the prospective transferee:

          (i) the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented to the date of such transfer;

          (ii) each Payment Date Certificate delivered to Trust Certificateholders on each Payment
Date preceding such request; and

          (iii) such other information as is reasonably available to the Depositor in order to
comply with requests for information pursuant to Rule 144A.

     None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee is under an obligation
to register any Trust Certificate under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

     (e) Upon surrender for registration of transfer or exchange of any Trust Certificate at the
office of the Certificate Registrar and upon compliance with the provisions of this Agreement
relating to such transfer or exchange, provided that the requirements of Section 8-401 (a) of the
UCC are met, the Owner Trustee shall execute and shall, or shall cause the Authenticating Agent

9

 

to, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate face amount dated the date
of such authentication or the Trust Certificates that the Trust Certificateholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive, as the case may be.

     The Certificate Registrar shall require that every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer
and accompanied by IRS Form W-8BEN or W-9 or such other form as may be reasonably required in form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Trust Certificateholder or such
Person’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

     No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Trust
Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
registration of transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates.

     The Certificate Registrar shall cancel and retain or destroy, in accordance with the
Certificate Registrar’s retention policy then in effect, all Trust Certificates surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange and shall upon written request certify to the Depositor as to
such retention or destruction.

     (f) The provisions of this Section generally are intended, among other things, to prevent the
Issuing Entity from being characterized as a “publicly traded partnership,” within the meaning of
Section 7704 of the Code, in reliance on Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1 (e) and (h), and the
Depositor shall take such intent into account in determining whether or not to consent to any
proposed transfer of any Trust Certificate.

     The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner Trustee shall not make and
the Certificate Registrar shall not register any transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates for a
period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Trust Certificates.

     SECTION 3.05 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates. If any
mutilated Trust Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate
Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust
Certificate and there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security
or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of
notice that such Trust Certificate has been transferred to a protected purchaser and provided that
the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuing
Entity shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for
or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust
Certificate of like tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust
Certificate under this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall
constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest in the Issuing Entity, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

10

 

     SECTION 3.06 Persons Deemed Trust Certificateholders. Prior to due presentation of a
Trust Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any
Paying Agent and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name any Trust
Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Trust Certificate for
the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any of
their respective agents shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     SECTION 3.07 Access to List of Trust Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The
Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Owner Trustee, the Servicer and
the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, within 15 days after its receipt of a
request therefor from the Owner Trustee, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee in
writing, a list, in such form as the requesting party may reasonably request, of the names and
addresses of the Trust Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If (i) two or more
Trust Certificateholders or (ii) one or more Trust Certificateholders evidencing not less than 25%
of the Certificate Balance apply in writing to the Owner Trustee, and such application states that
the applicants desire to communicate with other Trust Certificateholders with respect to their
rights under this Agreement or under the Trust Certificates and such application is accompanied by
a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Owner Trustee shall,
within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access
during normal business hours to the current list of Trust Certificateholders. Each Trust
Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not
to hold any of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, as the case
may be, accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source
from which such information was derived.

     SECTION 3.08 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee shall maintain in The
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and
demands to or upon the Owner Trustee in respect of the Trust Certificates and the other Basic
Documents to which the Issuing Entity is a party may be served. The Owner Trustee initially
designates Wilmington Trust Company, c/o Computershare Trust Company of New York, Wall Street
Plaza, 88 Pine Street, 19th Floor, New York, New York, as the office for such purposes. The Owner
Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor and the other Trust Certificateholders of
any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

     SECTION 3.09 Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions
to the Trust Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.02, and shall report the amounts of
such distributions to the Owner Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to
withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the
distributions referred to above. The Paying Agent initially shall be U.S. Bank. The Owner Trustee
may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole
discretion that the Paying Agent has failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any
material respect. Any co-paying agent chosen by the Depositor and acceptable to the Owner Trustee
shall also be a Paying Agent. Each Paying Agent may resign upon 30 days’ written notice to the
Owner Trustee. In the event that a Paying Agent may no longer act as

11

 

Paying Agent, the Owner Trustee shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall
be a bank or trust company). The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any
additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee
an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the
Owner Trustee that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall
hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Trust Certificateholders in trust for the
benefit of the Trust Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums are paid to the Trust
Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon
removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the
Owner Trustee. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 8.01
shall apply to the Owner Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Owner Trustee
shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed
hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent
unless the context requires otherwise.

     SECTION 3.10 Ownership by the Depositor of Trust Certificates. The Depositor shall
receive on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 3.02 and shall thereafter retain
beneficial and record ownership of Trust Certificates representing 100% of the Certificate Balance.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any attempted transfer of
any Trust Certificate that would reduce such interest of the Depositor below 100% of the
Certificate Balance shall be void. The Owner Trustee shall cause one Trust Certificate issued to
the Depositor (representing 100% of the Certificate Balance) to bear a legend stating “THIS
CERTIFICATE IS NON-TRANSFERABLE.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a dissolution or termination
of the Depositor, the Trust Certificates held by it shall be distributed to NMAC without regard to
the provisions of Section 3.02 or this Section 3.10.

     SECTION 3.11 Trust Certificates Held by Issuing Entity, Depositor or Their
Affiliates. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement or other Basic Documents, any Trust
Certificates owned by the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an
Affiliate is the Servicer) or any of their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to the benefits
under this Agreement equally and proportionately to the benefits afforded other owners of the Trust
Certificates, except that such Trust Certificates shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the
purpose of determining whether the requisite percentage of Securityholders have given any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or other action under the Basic Documents (other
than the commencement by the Issuing Entity of a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy), unless all
Securities are owned by the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an
Affiliate is the Servicer) or any of their respective Affiliates.

     SECTION 4.04 Restrictions on Trust Certificateholders’ Power. The Trust

     SECTION 5.01 Establishment of Certificate Distribution Account and Reserve Account.

     (a) The Owner Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, shall establish and
maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, at the direction of the Depositor, an Eligible
Account with and in the name of the Owner Trustee which shall be designated the “Certificate
Distribution Account.” The Owner Trustee and the Depositor hereby authorize and direct U.S.
Bank to establish the Certificate Distribution Account for the benefit of the Owner Trustee. The
Certificate Distribution Account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Trust
Certificateholders and shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein
are held for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders.

     The Owner Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from

and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders. If at any time
the Certificate Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, the Owner Trustee (or the
Depositor on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate Distribution Account is not then held
by the Owner Trustee or an Affiliate thereof) shall, within ten Business Days following
notification of such occurrence (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which
each Rating Agency may consent), establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an Eligible

     (b) The Servicer, on behalf of the Issuing Entity, shall establish and maintain an Eligible

is reduced to zero, and thereafter, in the name of the Owner Trustee, which is designated as the
“Reserve Account”. The Reserve Account shall be held for the benefit of the
Securityholders, and shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds on deposit therein
are held for the benefit of the Securityholders.

     The Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee

the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section 8.04 of the Indenture, after the
payment in full of the Notes, for the payment of principal of the Trust Certificates on such
Payment Date, pro rata to the Trust Certificateholders of record at the close of business on the
Record Date with respect to such Payment Date. On any Payment Date on which the amount on deposit
in the Reserve Account, after giving effect to all withdrawals therefrom and deposits thereto in
respect of that Payment Date, exceeds the Reserve Account Requirement, any such excess shall be
released to the Depositor.

     (b) On or after the date on which the Outstanding Amount of the Notes has been reduced to
zero, pursuant to the Indenture and the Control Agreement, dominion and control over the Reserve
Account shall be transferred to the Owner Trustee. On each Payment Date thereafter, all amounts

forth in Section 7.03), all of the Issuing Entity’s right, title, and interest in, to and
under the Reserve Account Property. In addition, on or following the Payment Date on which the

15

 

Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero, the Depositor may direct the Owner Trustee in
writing to distribute to it, and upon receipt of such direction the Owner Trustee shall distribute
to the Depositor, the remaining assets of the Issuing Entity.

     (c) If requested by the Trust Certificateholder, for any Payment Date, the Owner Trustee shall

immediately preceding Payment Date;

     (vi) the Note Distribution Amount for each Class of Notes and the Certificate
Distribution Amount;

     (vii) the amount of the Note Distribution Amount allocable to interest on and principal
of the Notes and any Principal Carryover Shortfall for each Class of the Notes;

     (viii) the amount of any principal paid on, and Principal Carryover Shortfall for, the

     The information required to be delivered by such Distribution Statement may be included with
such other information or reports furnished by the Servicer to the Owner Trustee in connection with
the making of payments pursuant to the other Basic Documents.

     (d) If any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuing Entity’s payment (or, if the Issuing
Entity is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, allocations of income) to a
Trust Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Trust
Certificateholder in accordance with this Section. The Owner Trustee is hereby authorized and
directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to such Trust Certificateholders,
sufficient funds for the payment of any withholding tax that is legally owed by the Issuing Entity
(but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such tax in
appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the
outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Trust
Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Trust Certificateholders, at the
time it is withheld by the Issuing Entity for remittance to the appropriate taxing authority. If
the Owner Trustee determines that there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with
respect to a distribution (such as any distribution to a “non-U. S. person” (as defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code)), the Owner Trustee may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts

17

 

in accordance with this Section. If a Trust Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of
any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Trust
Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Trust Certificateholder agrees to reimburse
the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

     (e) Subject to Section 6.07 of the Indenture and 8.01 hereof, as the case may
be, neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall in any way be
held liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Reserve Account resulting from any loss on any
Permitted Investment included therein, except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s or
the Owner Trustee’s, as the case may be, failure to make payments on any such Permitted Investments
issued by the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, in its commercial
capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in accordance with their terms.

     SECTION 5.03 Method of Payment. Subject to Section 9.01(c) respecting the
final payment upon retirement of the Trust Certificates, distributions required to be made to Trust
Certificateholders on any Payment Date shall be made to each Trust Certificateholder of record on
the related Record Date by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder at the address of such
holder appearing on the Certificate Register, except that a Trust Certificateholder having original
denominations aggregating at least $1 million may request payment by wire transfer of funds
pursuant to written instructions delivered to the Owner Trustee at least five Business Days prior
to the Record Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment on the Trust Certificates
shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificates at the office or
agency specified in the notice of final payment to the Trust Certificateholders. The Owner Trustee
or a Paying Agent shall, upon receipt of at least 10 days’ notice from the Issuing Entity or the
Administrative Agent as set forth in the Indenture, provide such notice to the Trust
Certificateholders of record not more than 30 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date on
which such final payment is expected to occur.

     SECTION 5.04 Accounting and Reports.

     (a) The Owner Trustee shall, based on information provided by the Depositor, (i) maintain (or
cause to be maintained) the books of the Issuing Entity on a fiscal year basis ending on March 31
on the accrual method of accounting (except as required by Article Eleven), (ii) deliver to each
Trust Certificateholder not later than the latest date permitted by law (A) a statement of the
amounts provided for in Section 8.04 of the Indenture and (B) such information as may be
required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations with respect to instruments such as the
Trust Certificates and (iii) in addition to the Owner Trustee’s rights under Section 5.02,
take such action as instructed by the Depositor to collect or cause to be collected and paid over
to applicable authorities any withholding tax as described in and in accordance with Section
5.02 and Article Eleven with respect to income or distributions to Trust Certificateholders.
The Owner Trustee shall make all elections pursuant to Article Eleven as directed by the Depositor.

     (b) The Depositor shall maintain such books and records, and shall prepare and file such
reports and returns, as are required pursuant to this Section and Section 5.02.

     SECTION 5.05 Duties of Depositor on Behalf of Issuing Entity. On behalf of the
Issuing Entity, the Depositor shall prepare or cause the Servicer to prepare and, after execution

18

 

by the Issuing Entity, file with the Commission and any applicable state agencies all
documents required to be filed by the Issuing Entity on a periodic basis with the Commission and
any applicable state agencies (including any summaries thereof required by rules and regulations
prescribed thereby), and transmit such summaries to the Noteholders, pursuant to Section 7.03 of
the Indenture.

ARTICLE SIX

AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE

     SECTION 6.01 General Authority. The Owner Trustee shall administer the Issuing Entity
in the interest of the Trust Certificateholders, subject to the Lien of the Indenture Trustee, in
accordance with the Basic Documents. Subject to the provisions and limitations of Sections
2.03 and 2.07, the Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and deliver on
behalf of the Issuing Entity the Basic Documents to which the Issuing Entity is to be a party and
each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Basic Documents
to which the Issuing Entity is to be a party, in each case in such form as the Depositor shall
approve as evidenced conclusively by the Owner Trustee’s execution thereof and the Depositor’s
execution of this Agreement, and on behalf of the Issuing Entity, to direct the Indenture Trustee
to authenticate and deliver Class A-1 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $208,000,000,
Class A-2 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $304,000,000, Class A-3 Notes in the aggregate
principal amount of $485,000,000 and Class A-4 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$85,610,000. In addition to the foregoing, the Owner Trustee is authorized to take all actions
required of the Issuing Entity pursuant to the Basic Documents. The Owner Trustee is further
authorized from time to time to take such action on behalf of the Issuing Entity as is permitted by
the Basic Documents and that the Servicer or the Administrative Agent recommends with respect to
the Basic Documents, except to the extent this Agreement expressly requires the consent of the
Trust Certificateholders for such action.

     SECTION 6.02 General Duties. Subject to the provisions and limitations of
Sections 2.03 and 2.07, it shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to
discharge or cause to be discharged all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of the Basic
Documents to which the Issuing Entity is a party and to administer the Issuing Entity in the
interest of the Trust Certificateholders, subject to the Lien of the Indenture Trustee and in
accordance with the provisions of the Basic Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner
Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the
other Basic Documents to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed in the Trust Administration
Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Issuing Entity or the Owner Trustee
hereunder or under any other Basic Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be held liable for the
default or failure of the Administrative Agent to carry out its obligations under the Trust
Administration Agreement.

     SECTION 6.03 Action Upon Instruction.

     (a) Subject to Article Four and in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the
Depositor may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the administration of the Issuing
Entity subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Basic Documents. The Owner

19

 

Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports,
documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee that shall be specifically
required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to
determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement.

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

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

     (d) If the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or
any other Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or
appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement
or any other Basic Document permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is
incomplete as to the course of action the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a
particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate
under the circumstances) to the Trust Certificateholders requesting instruction and, to the extent
the Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such
instruction received from Trust Certificateholders holding not less than a Majority Interest of the
Trust Certificates and in accordance with Sections 6.04 and 6.05, the Owner Trustee
shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee
shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such
shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or as may be necessary under
the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action,
not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the
best interests of the Trust Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such
action or inaction.

     (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of the Depositor or the Trust Certificateholders
to take any action affecting the Owner Trust Estate shall be subject to the rights of the Indenture
Trustee under the Indenture.

20

 

     SECTION 6.04 No Duties Except as Specified. The Owner Trustee shall not be required
to perform any of the obligations of the Issuing Entity under this Agreement or the other Basic
Documents that are required to be performed by (i) the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement or
the 2009-A SUBI Supplement, (ii) the Depositor under this Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, the
Indenture, the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement, or the Back-Up Security Agreement, (iii) the
Administrative Agent under the Trust Administration Agreement or (iv) the Indenture Trustee under
the Indenture. The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment
with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate,
or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document
contemplated hereby to which the Issuing Entity is a party, except as expressly provided by the
terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee
pursuant to Section 6.03; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement or any other Basic Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no
responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time
or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any ownership or security interest in the
Owner Trust Estate or to record this Agreement or any other Basic Document. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any Basic Document, neither the Indenture Trustee, the
Titling Trustee nor the Trust Agent shall be required to execute, deliver or certify on behalf of
the Issuing Entity or any other person any filings, certificates, affidavits or other instruments
required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Owner
Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as
may be necessary to discharge any Liens (other than the Lien of the Indenture) on any part of the
Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by or claims against the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust
Estate.

     SECTION 6.05 No Action Unless Specifically Authorized. The Owner Trustee shall not
manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate
except in accordance with (i) the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner
Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the other Basic Documents to which the Issuing Entity or
the Owner Trustee is a party and (iii) any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee
pursuant to Section 6.03. In particular, the Owner Trustee shall not transfer, sell,
pledge, assign or convey the 2009-A SUBI Certificate, except as specifically required or permitted
by the Basic Documents.

     SECTION 6.06 Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (i) that is
contrary to the purposes of the Issuing Entity set forth in Section 2.03 or (ii) that, to
the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would (a) affect the treatment of the Notes as debt for
federal income tax purposes, (b) be deemed to cause a taxable exchange of the Notes for federal
income tax purposes or (c) cause the Issuing Entity, the Depositor or the Titling Trust or any
portion thereof to be taxable as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a
corporation for federal or state income or franchise tax purposes. The Trust Certificateholders and
the Depositor shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions
of this Section. The Owner Trustee may not (i) initiate or settle any claim or lawsuit involving
the Issuing Entity (unless brought by the Servicer to collect amounts owed under a 2009-A Lease),
(ii) amend the Certificate of Trust (unless such amendment is required to be filed under applicable
law), (iii) amend this Agreement where Trust Certificateholder consent is required,

21

 

(iv) amend this Agreement where Trust Certificateholder consent is not required if such
amendment materially adversely affects the Trust Certificateholders, (v) amend any Basic Document
other than this Agreement if such amendment materially adversely affects the Trust
Certificateholders, or (vi) appoint a successor Owner Trustee or successor Indenture Trustee,
unless (a) the Owner Trustee provides 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Trust
Certificateholders and each Rating Agency and (b) Trust Certificateholders holding at least 25% of
the Certificate Balance (which for this purpose shall include Trust Certificates held by the
Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates) do not object in
writing to any such proposed amendment within 30 days of such notice. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Depositor, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates may maintain
normal commercial banking relationships with the Owner Trustee and its Affiliates.

Trustee made in Section 7.03. The indemnities contained in this Section shall survive the

indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section, the Indemnified Party’s choice of legal counsel
shall be subject to the approval of the Depositor and the Administrative Agent, which approval

judgment made by an officer of the Owner Trustee made in good faith, unless it is proved that such
officer was negligent in ascertaining the facts, (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken in

Certificateholder shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Issuing Entity.

     (c) Notice of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01(a),
specifying the Payment Date upon which the Trust Certificateholders shall surrender their Trust
Certificates to the Paying Agent for final payment and cancellation, shall be given by the Owner
Trustee by letter to Trust Certificateholders mailed within five Business Days of receipt of notice
of such termination from the Administrative Agent, stating (i) the Payment Date upon or with

26

 

respect to which final payment of the Trust Certificates shall be made upon presentation and
surrender of the Trust Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein designated, (ii) the
amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the
Trust Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified. The Owner Trustee shall
give such notice to the Certificate Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying
Agent at the time such notice is given to Trust Certificateholders and the Depositor. Upon
presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be
distributed to Trust Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to
Section 5.02. The Owner Trustee shall promptly notify each Rating Agency upon the final
payment of the Trust Certificates.

     (d) If one or more of the Trust Certificateholders shall not surrender their Trust
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above-mentioned
written notice, the Owner Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Trust
Certificateholders to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation and receive the final
distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice, all of the Trust
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take
appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining
Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates, and the cost thereof
shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement. Any
funds remaining in the Issuing Entity after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by the
Owner Trustee to the Administrative Agent.

     (e) Upon the winding up of the Issuing Entity and its termination, the Owner Trustee shall
cause the Certificate of Trust to be cancelled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the
Secretary of State in accordance with Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust Statute.

     SECTION 9.02 [Reserved].

     SECTION 9.03 Purchase of the 2009-A SUBI Certificate; Repayment of the Trust
Certificates.

     (a) The Servicer shall be permitted at its option to purchase, or cause to be purchased, the
2009-A SUBI Certificate from the Issuing Entity on any Payment Date if, either before or after
giving effect to any payment of principal required to be made on such Payment Date, (i) the
Securities Balance is less than or equal to 5% of the Initial Securities Balance or (ii) the
Outstanding Amount of the Notes is reduced to zero and 100% of the outstanding Trust Certificates
are owned by the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an Affiliate is
the Servicer) and/or their respective Affiliates (the exercise of such option is referred to as an
“Optional Purchase”). The purchase price (the “Optional Purchase Price”) shall
equal to (i) the aggregate Securitization Value of the 2009-A SUBI Assets and (ii) the appraised
value of any other property (other than cash, in which case such value shall be the amount of such
funds held in cash) held as part of the Issuing Entity (other than the Reserve Account) (less
Liquidation Expenses), and shall be deposited by the Servicer into the SUBI Collection Account on
the Deposit Date related to such Payment Date. The Servicer shall not exercise the Optional
Purchase if the Optional Purchase Price does not exceed the sum of (i) the Redemption Price, (ii)

27

 

unpaid portions of any outstanding Sales Proceeds Advances and Monthly Payment Advances, (iii)
the Servicing Fee in respect of the related Collection Period, together with any unpaid Servicing
Fees in respect of one or more prior Collection Periods, and (iv) the Certificate Balance. If the
Servicer exercises the Optional Purchase, the Notes shall be redeemed and the Trust Certificates
shall be repaid, in each case in whole but not in part on the related Payment Date. The Servicer,
at its option, may pay all or a portion of the Optional Purchase Price by issuing a demand note in
favor of the Issuing Entity, the terms of which, on the whole, shall be commercially reasonable and
substantially similar to terms that would prevail in an arms-length negotiation between
unaffiliated parties; provided, however, that (x) the Servicer shall pay in cash
the portion of the Optional Purchase Price that is equal to or greater than the sum of the amounts
specified in clauses (i) through (iii) of the second preceding sentence and (y) the Servicer may
issue a demand note to a Trust Certificateholder pursuant to this Section 9.03 only if such
Trust Certificateholder consents to the receipt of such demand note.

     (b) In connection with an Optional Purchase, the Trust Certificates shall be due and payable
on the related Payment Date, upon furnishing of a notice complying with Section 9.03(c) to
each Trust Certificateholder. The Administrative Agent or the Owner Trustee shall furnish each
Rating Agency notice of such repayment or redemption.

     (c) Notice of repayment or redemption under Section 9.03(b) shall be given (i) by the
Administrative Agent to the Owner Trustee by facsimile or by first-class mail, postage prepaid,
transmitted or mailed at least 10 days prior to the related Payment Date and (ii) by the Owner
Trustee to each Trust Certificateholder by facsimile or by first-class mail, postage prepaid,
transmitted or mailed at least 10 days (but no more than 30 days) prior to the related Payment
Date, at such Trust Certificateholder’s or the Depositor’s address appearing in the Certificate
Register.

     All notices of repayment shall state:

          (i) the related Payment Date for the repayment;

          (ii) the place where the Trust Certificates to be repaid are to be surrendered for
payment of the Repayment Price (which shall be the office or agency of the Owner Trustee to
be maintained as provided in Section 3.08); and

          (iii) that on the related Payment Date, the Repayment Price will become due and payable
upon each such Trust Certificate.

     Notice of repayment of the Trust Certificates shall be given by the Owner Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Issuing Entity. Failure to give notice of repayment or any defect
therein, to any Trust Certificateholder shall not impair or affect the validity of the repayment of
any Trust Certificate.

     (d) The Trust Certificates to be repaid shall, following notice of repayment as required by
Section 9.03(c) on the related Payment Date, become due and payable at the Repayment Price.

SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL OWNER TRUSTEES

     SECTION 10.01 Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall (i)
be a corporation satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Statute; (ii)
at all times be able and authorized to exercise corporate trust powers; (iii) have a long-term debt
rating of “A” or higher by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s, or be otherwise acceptable to each Rating
Agency; (iv) have combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000; and (v) be subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If the Owner Trustee shall publish
reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section, the combined capital and
surplus of the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in
its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02.

     SECTION 10.02 Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee may at any
time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to
the Administrative Agent, the Servicer, each Rating Agency, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee
and the Trust Certificateholders. If, for any reason, Wilmington Trust Company or any of its
Affiliates should assume the duties of the Indenture Trustee, then from that time forward
Wilmington Trust Company, in its capacity as Owner Trustee, shall resign as Owner Trustee hereunder
if any Event of Default under the Indenture occurs and is necessary to eliminate any conflict of
interest under the TIA with the Indenture Trustee or any other trustee under the Indenture. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Owner
Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee
shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

     If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of Section 10.01 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Administrative Agent, the Depositor or Trust Certificateholders holding not less than a Majority
Interest of the Trust Certificates (which, for this purpose, includes Trust Certificates owned by
the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the Servicer (so long as NMAC or an Affiliate is the Servicer)
or any of their respective Affiliates), or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable
to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its
property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner
Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the Depositor or such Trust Certificateholders may remove the Owner Trustee. If
the Owner Trustee shall be removed pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Depositor shall promptly
appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner
Trustee.

29

 

     Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of
appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 and payment of all
fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Depositor shall provide (or shall cause
to be provided) notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and the appointment of a
successor Owner Trustee to each of the Rating Agencies.

     SECTION 10.03 Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed
pursuant to Section 10.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrative
Agent and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this
Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become
effective and such successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under
this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner
Trustee shall, upon payment of its fees and expenses, deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all
documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Depositor, the
Administrative Agent and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments
and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and
confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

     No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the
time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section
10.01.

     Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section, the
Depositor shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee to all Trust Certificateholders,
the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency. If the Depositor shall fail to mail such notice
within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner
Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.

     SECTION 10.04 Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Any Person (i) into which the
Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, (ii) resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party or (iii)
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Owner Trustee, shall
be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any instrument
or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided, that such Person shall be
eligible pursuant to Section 10.01 anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The
Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger, conversion, or consolidation to each Rating Agency,
the Indenture Trustee and the Trust Certificateholders.

     SECTION 10.05 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements
of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate may at the time be located, the
Depositor and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver
all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner

30

 

Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust
Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Issuing Entity, or any part
thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations,
rights and trusts as the Depositor and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If
the Depositor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a
request to do so, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 and no notice of the appointment of any
co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03.

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

     (a) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee
shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee
or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not
authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent
that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the
Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner Trust Estate or
any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such
separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;

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

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

     Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been
given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees as effectively as if given to each of
them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement
and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of
appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein,
subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this
Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to the
Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given
to the Administrative Agent, the Servicer and the Depositor.

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

ARTICLE ELEVEN

TAX MATTERS

     SECTION 11.01 Tax and Accounting Characterization.

     (a) It is the intent of the parties hereto that the Issuing Entity not constitute a separate
entity for federal income, state income or franchise tax purposes. It is the intent of the
Depositor and the Trust Certificateholders that the Notes be treated as indebtedness secured by the
2009-A Vehicles and the payments on the 2009-A Leases and the other assets comprising the Owner
Trust Estate for federal income, state income and franchise tax purposes. If, however, the Issuing
Entity is re-characterized as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes, it is the
intention of the parties that it qualify as a partnership, with the assets of the partnership being
the Owner Trust Estate. The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax
authorities, the Issuing Entity shall not file or cause to be filed annual returns, reports or
other forms and will treat the Issuing Entity in a manner consistent with the characterization that
the Issuing Entity is not a separate entity for tax purposes; provided further, if the Issuing
Entity is determined to have more than one beneficial owner for tax purposes, the parties agree to
treat the Issuing Entity as a partnership for tax purposes.

     The Depositor and the Trust Certificateholder, by acceptance of a Trust Certificate, agree to
take no action inconsistent with the foregoing intention.

     (b) It is the intent of the Depositor to treat the Trust Certificates as equity interests in
the Issuing Entity for financial accounting purposes.

     SECTION 11.02 Signature on Returns; Tax Matters Partner.

     (a) If the Issuing Entity shall be required to file federal or other income tax returns as a
partnership, such returns shall be signed by an authorized signatory for the Depositor or such
other Person as shall be required by law to sign such returns of the Issuing Entity.

     (b) By acceptance of its beneficial interest in a Trust Certificate, each Trust
Certificateholder agrees that in the event that the Issuing Entity is classified as a partnership
for federal income tax purposes, the Depositor shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Issuing
Entity pursuant to the Code. The Depositor hereby agrees not to make any tax election or otherwise
take any actions in its capacity as tax matters partner that would cause the Issuing Entity to be
treated as a corporation or an association taxable as a corporation for tax purposes.

     SECTION 11.03 Tax Reporting. Unless otherwise required by appropriate tax
authorities, the Issuing Entity shall not file or cause to be filed annual or other income or
franchise tax returns and shall not be required to obtain any taxpayer identification number.

adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders or the Trust Certificateholders shall require
the consent, respectively, of Noteholders evidencing not less than a Majority Interest of the Notes
voting together as a single class, or of Trust Certificateholders evidencing not less than a
Majority Interest of the Trust Certificates (provided that if the Depositor and its
Affiliates do not hold all of the Trust Certificates, then the Trust Certificates held by the
Depositor and its Affiliates shall not be deemed Outstanding for purposes of this provision) or (B)
such amendment shall not, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor delivered to
the Indenture Trustee (with respect to the Noteholders) or the Trust Certificateholders, as
applicable, adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, as the

Indenture Trustee shall require the prior written consent of the Persons whose interests are
materially and adversely affected, provided, further that an Opinion of Counsel
shall be furnished to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment
or supplement shall not affect the treatment of any outstanding Notes as debt for federal income
tax purposes, or cause the Issuing Entity or the 2009-A SUBI Certificate to be classified as an
association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes. An amendment shall be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the interests of the
Noteholders if the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to such amendment and the
Officer’s Certificate described in the preceding sentence is provided to the Indenture Trustee.
The consent of the Servicer shall be deemed to have been given if the Depositor does not receive a
written objection from such Person within 10 Business Days after a written request for such consent
shall have been given. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into or
consent to any such amendment that affects the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities
or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

     (b) [Reserved].

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall (i) reduce the interest rate or
principal amount of any Note, or change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest
in any Note or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, without the consent of the Holder of such
Note, or (ii) reduce the Outstanding Amount, the Holders of which are required to consent to any
matter without the consent of the Holders of at least a Majority Interest of the Notes which were
required to consent to such mater before giving effect to such amendment.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any term or provision of this Agreement
may be amended by the parties hereto without the consent of any of the Noteholders or any other
Person to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be necessary or advisable in order to
comply with or obtain more favorable treatment under or with respect to any law or regulation or
any accounting rule or principle (whether now or in the future in effect); it being a condition to
any such amendment that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied and the Officer’s
Certificate described in Section 12.01(a)(i)(B) is delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

     (e) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Depositor shall provide
each Rating Agency, the Trust Certificateholder, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee with written notice of the substance of such amendment. No later than 10

33

 

Business Days after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Depositor shall
furnish a copy of such amendment to each Rating Agency, the Trust Certificateholders, the Indenture
Trustee and the Owner Trustee.

     (f) This Agreement may also be amended or supplemented from time to time, at the request of
the holders of no less than 66 2/3% of all outstanding Trust Certificates (provided that if
the Depositor and its Affiliates do not hold all of the Trust Certificates, then the Trust
Certificates held by the Depositor and its Affiliates shall not be deemed Outstanding for purposes
of this provision) to approve any trust purpose with respect to the Issuing Entity in addition to
the purpose authorized pursuant to Section 2.03(b), upon not less that 90 days notice to
each Rating Agency and each Noteholder and subject to each of (1) the prior written notice to each
Rating Agency of such action, and (2) the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of all
outstanding Notes (including such Notes, if any, owned by the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the
Servicer (as long as NMAC or an Affiliate is the Servicer) and their respective Affiliates), and
provided, further that an Opinion of Counsel shall be furnished to the Indenture
Trustee and the Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment or supplement shall not affect the
treatment of any outstanding Notes as debt for federal income tax purposes, or cause the Issuing
Entity or the 2009-A SUBI Certificate to be classified as an association (or a publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

     (g) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall be
entitled to receive and rely upon an opinion of counsel stating that the execution of such
amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and that all conditions precedent to the
execution and delivery of such amendment have been satisfied. The Owner Trustee may, but shall not
be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties
or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

     (h) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to ascertain whether a Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied with respect to any amendment. When the Rating Agency Condition is
satisfied with respect to such amendment, the Servicer shall deliver to a Responsible Officer of
the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to that effect, and the Indenture Trustee may
conclusively rely upon the Officer’ Certificate from the Servicer that a Rating Agency Condition
has been satisfied with respect to such amendment.

     SECTION 12.02 No Legal Title to Owner Trust Estate. The Trust Certificateholders
shall not have legal title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate. The Trust Certificateholders
shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to their Trust Certificates only in
accordance with Articles Five and Nine. No transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of any
right, title or interest of the Trust Certificateholders to and in their ownership interest in the
Owner Trust Estate shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any
transferee to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any part of the Owner Trust
Estate.

NISSAN AUTO LEASE TRUST 2009-A

ASSET BACKED CERTIFICATE

evidencing a beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, as defined below, the property of
which includes, among other things, the 2009-A SUBI Certificate, evidencing a 100%
beneficial interest in the 2009-A SUBI. The property of the Issuing Entity has been pledged
to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture to secure the payment of the Notes issued
thereunder.

     This Trust Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of the Depositor,
Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation, the Owner Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates,
except to the extent described below.

			
	 	 	 
	     NUMBER 

     R-_____
	 	$                    

     This certifies that                      is the registered owner of a                      dollars
nonassessable, fully-paid, beneficial ownership interest in the Nissan Auto Lease Trust 2009-A (the
“Issuing Entity”) formed by Nissan Auto Leasing LLC II, a Delaware limited liability
company (the “Depositor”).

     The Issuing Entity was created pursuant to a trust agreement, as amended and restated as of
June 9, 2009 (the “Trust Agreement”), between the Depositor and Wilmington Trust Company,
as trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which
is set forth below. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the
meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement of Definitions.

     This Trust Certificate is one of the duly authorized Trust Certificates designated as “Asset
Backed Certificates” (the “Trust Certificates”). Also issued under an indenture, dated as
of June 9, 2009 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuing Entity and U.S. Bank National
Association, as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”), are the 1.04335% Asset Backed Notes,
Class A-1, the 2.01% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-2, the 2.92% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-3 and the
3.51% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-4. This Trust Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the holder of
this Trust Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Trust
Certificateholder is bound. The property of the Issuing Entity primarily includes, among other
things, (i) the 2009-A SUBI Certificate, evidencing a 100% beneficial interest in the 2009-A SUBI,
and (ii) all proceeds of the foregoing. The rights of the Issuing Entity in the foregoing property
have been pledged by the Issuing Entity to the Indenture Trustee to secure the payment of the
Notes.

     The Trust Certificates represent obligations of the Issuing Entity only and do not represent
interests in, recourse to or obligations of the Depositor, the UTI Beneficiary or any of their
respective Affiliates.

A-3

 

     Under the Trust Agreement, there will be distributed on the 15th day of each month (or, if
such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day), commencing July 15, 2009 (each, a
“Payment Date”), to the Person in whose name this Trust Certificate is registered at the
close of business on the day preceding each Payment Date (each, a “Record Date”) such Trust
Certificateholder’s percentage interest in the amount to be distributed with respect to the Trust
Certificates on such Payment Date.

     The holder of this Trust Certificate acknowledges and agrees that its rights to receive
payments in respect of this Trust Certificate are subordinated to the rights of the Noteholders as
described in the Indenture.

     It is the intent of the Depositor and Trust Certificateholder that the Issuing Entity not
constitute a separate entity for federal income, state income and franchise tax purposes, and that
the Notes be treated as indebtedness for such purposes. If, however, the Issuing Entity is treated
as having more than one beneficial owner and thus is characterized as a separate entity for federal
income tax purposes, it is the intention of the parties to the Trust Agreement that the Issuing
Entity be treated as a partnership for tax purposes and not as a corporation or association,
taxable as a corporation. The Depositor and the other Trust Certificateholders, by acceptance of a
Trust Certificate, agree to take no action inconsistent with the foregoing intention.

     Each Trust Certificateholder by accepting a Trust Certificate, covenants and agrees that prior
to the date that is one year and one day after the date upon which all obligations under each
Securitized Financing have been paid in full, it will not institute against, or join any other
Person in instituting against NMAC, the Grantor, the Depositor, the Titling Trustee, the Titling
Trust, the Issuing Entity, any Special Purpose Affiliate or any Beneficiary, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation Proceeding or other Proceeding under any
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

     Distributions on this Trust Certificate will be made as provided in the Trust Agreement by
check mailed to the Trust Certificateholder of record in the Certificate Register without the
presentation or surrender of this Trust Certificate or the making of any notation hereon. A Trust
Certificateholder having original denominations aggregating at least $1 million may request payment
by wire transfer of funds pursuant to written instructions delivered to the Owner Trustee at least
five (5) Business Days prior to the Record Date. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust
Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final payment on this Trust Certificate will be made
after due notice by the Owner Trustee of the pendency of such payment and only upon presentation
and surrender of this Trust Certificate at the office or agency specified in the notice of final
payment to the Trust Certificateholders.

     Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Trust Certificate set forth on the
reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set
forth at this place.

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

A-4

 

     THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

individual capacity, has caused this Trust Certificate to be duly executed.

[Reverse of Trust Certificate]

     The Trust Certificates do not represent an obligation of or an interest in the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Owner Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates, and no recourse may be had
against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated herein
or in the Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents. In addition, this Trust Certificate is not
guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality and is limited in right of payment to
certain collections and recoveries and certain other amounts respecting the assets of the Issuing
Entity, all as more specifically set forth in the Indenture. The Depositor will furnish, upon the
request of any holder of a Trust Certificate, such information as is specified in paragraph (d)(4)
of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Issuing Entity.

     The Trust Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto, without the consent of any other
Person; provided that (i) either (A) any amendment that materially and adversely affects
the interests of the Noteholders or the Trust Certificateholders shall require the consent,
respectively, of Noteholders evidencing not less than a Majority Interest of the Notes voting
together as a single class, or of Trust Certificateholders evidencing not less than a Majority
Interest of the Trust Certificates (provided that if the Depositor and its Affiliates do
not hold all of the Trust Certificates, then the Trust Certificates held by the Depositor and its
Affiliates shall not be deemed Outstanding for purposes of this provision) or (B) such amendment
shall not, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor delivered to the Indenture
Trustee (with respect to the Noteholders) or the Trust Certificateholders, as applicable, adversely
affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, as the case may be and (ii) any
amendment that adversely affects the interests of the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee shall
require the prior written consent of the Persons whose interests are materially and adversely
affected; provided, further that an Opinion of Counsel shall be furnished to the
Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment or supplement shall not
affect the treatment of any outstanding Notes as debt for federal income tax purposes, or cause the
Issuing Entity or the 2009-A SUBI Certificate to be classified as an association (or a publicly
traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. An amendment shall
be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders if the Rating
Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to such amendment and the Officer’s Certificate
described in the preceding sentence is provided to the Indenture Trustee. The consent of the
Servicer shall be deemed to have been given if the Depositor does not receive a written objection
from such Person within 10 Business Days after a written request for such consent shall have been
given. The Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into or consent to any such
amendment that affects the Indenture Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under
the Trust Agreement.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall (i) reduce the interest rate or principal
amount of any Note, or change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest in any
Note, or the Redemption Price with respect thereto, without the consent of the Holder of such Note,
or (ii) reduce the Outstanding Amount, the Holders of which are required to consent to any matter
without the consent of the Holders of at least a Majority Interest of the Notes which were required
to consent to such mater before giving effect to such amendment.

A-7

 

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any term or provision of the Trust Agreement
may be amended by the Depositor without the consent of any of the Noteholders or any other Person
to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be necessary or advisable in order to comply with
or obtain more favorable treatment under or with respect to any law or regulation or any accounting
rule or principle (whether now or in the future in effect); it being a condition to any such
amendment that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied and the Officer’s Certificate
described in Section 12.01(a)(i)(B) is delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

     Prior to the execution of any amendment to the Trust Agreement, the Depositor shall provide
each Rating Agency, the Trust Certificateholder, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee with written notice of the substance of such amendment. No later than 10 Business Days
after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Depositor shall furnish a copy of such
amendment to each Rating Agency, the Trust Certificateholders, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
Trustee.

     The Trust Agreement may also be amended or supplemented from time to time, at the request of
the holders of no less than 66 2/3% of all outstanding Trust Certificates (provided that if
the Depositor and its Affiliates do not hold all of the Trust Certificates, then the Trust
Certificates held by the Depositor and its Affiliates shall not be deemed Outstanding for purposes
of this provision), to approve any trust purpose with respect to the Issuing Entity in addition to
the purpose authorized pursuant to the Trust Agreement, upon not less that 90 days notice to each
Rating Agency and each Noteholder and subject to each of (1) the prior written notice to each
Rating Agency of such action, and (2) the consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of all
outstanding Notes (including such Notes, if any, owned by the Issuing Entity, the Depositor, the
Servicer (as long as NMAC or an Affiliate is the Servicer) and their respective Affiliates), and
provided, further that an Opinion of Counsel shall be furnished to the Indenture Trustee and the
Owner Trustee to the effect that such amendment or supplement shall not affect the treatment of any
outstanding Notes as debt for federal income tax purposes, or cause the Issuing Entity or the
2009-A SUBI Certificate to be classified as an association (or a publicly traded partnership)
taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

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

     The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to ascertain whether a Rating Agency
Condition has been satisfied with respect to any amendment. When the Rating Agency Condition is
satisfied with respect to such amendment, the Servicer shall deliver to a Responsible Officer of
the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to that effect, and the Indenture Trustee may
conclusively rely upon the Officer’ Certificate from the Servicer that a Rating Agency Condition
has been satisfied with respect to such amendment.

     As provided in the Trust Agreement, if and to the extent transfers are permitted and if the
Depositor delivers an Opinion of Counsel that the Trust Certificates are transferable in

A-8

 

accordance with the terms set forth therein, which opinion the Depositor has not determined
can be given under the Internal Revenue Code and existing and proposed regulations thereunder, the
transfer of this Trust Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of
this Trust Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate
Registrar maintained by the Owner Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
accompanied by, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Trust Certificateholder hereof or such Trust
Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Trust
Certificates of the same class and in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate
interest in the Issuing Entity will be issued to the designated transferee. The initial Certificate
Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is Wilmington Trust Company.

     The Trust Certificates are issuable only as registered Trust Certificates without coupons in
minimum denominations of $250,000. As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Trust Certificates are exchangeable for new Trust Certificates of
authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate denomination, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

     The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and any of their respective
agents may treat the Person in whose name this Trust Certificate is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and
any of their respective agents shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     The obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and the trust created
thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Trust Certificateholders of all amounts required to be
paid to them pursuant to the Trust Agreement and the Indenture and the disposition of all property
held as part of the Owner Trust Estate.

     Any prospective transferee of a Trust Certificate will be required to deliver a letter to the
Depositor and the Certificate Registrar substantially in the form of Exhibit C to the Trust
Agreement, which letter includes a representation that such prospective transferee is not a Benefit
Plan. The Trust Certificates may not be transferred, sold, pledged or otherwise disposed to or for
the account of a Benefit Plan.

     The Trust Certificates may not be acquired by a Benefit Plan. By accepting and holding this
Trust Certificate, the holder hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is
not a Benefit Plan and is not acquiring this Trust Certificate or an interest therein for the
account of a Benefit Plan. If the holder hereof is a governmental plan, foreign plan or any other
plan that is subject to Similar Law, it shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that its
acquisition, holding and disposition of this Trust Certificate or an interest therein will not
result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under, or a violation of, Similar Law.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     In connection with our proposed purchase of $______ aggregate principal amount of
Certificates (the “Certificates”) representing an undivided interest in the Nissan Auto
Lease Trust 2009-A (the “Issuing Entity”), the investor on whose behalf the undersigned is
executing this letter (the “Purchaser”) confirms that:

     1. Reference is made to the Prospectus Supplement, dated June 2, 2009, together with the
Prospectus, dated May 26, 2009 (collectively, the “Prospectus”), relating to the
Certificates. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Prospectus. The Purchaser has received a copy of the Prospectus and such
other information as the Purchaser deems necessary in order to make its investment decision and the
Purchaser has been provided the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the
Servicer and Nissan Auto Leasing LLC II, as the Depositor, concerning the Servicer, the UTI
Beneficiary and the Depositor and the terms and conditions of the offering described in the
Prospectus. The Purchaser has received and understands the above, and understands that substantial
risks are involved in an investment in the Certificates. The Purchaser represents that in making
its investment decision to acquire the Certificates, the Purchaser has not relied on
representations, warranties, opinions, projections, financial or other information or analysis, if
any, supplied to it by any person, including you, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Owner Trustee
or any of your or their affiliates, except as expressly contained in the Prospectus and in the
other written information, if any, discussed above. The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment in the Certificates, and the Purchaser is able to bear the substantial economic risks of
such an investment. The Purchaser has relied upon its own tax, legal and financial advisors in
connection with its decision to purchase the Certificates.

     2. The Purchaser is (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”)) and has delivered to you a

C-1

 

certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex 1 or Annex 2, as applicable and
(B) acquiring the Certificates for its own account or for the account of an investor of the type
described in clause (A) above as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment
discretion. The Purchaser is purchasing the Certificates for investment purposes and not with a
view to, or for, the offer or sale in connection with, a public distribution or in any other manner
that would violate the 1933 Act or the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any state.

     3. The Purchaser understands that the offer and sale of the Certificates have not been and
will not be registered under the 1933 Act or under the securities or blue sky laws of any state,
and that (i) if it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Certificate, such
Certificate may be resold, pledged or transferred without registration only to an entity that has
delivered to the Depositor and the Owner Trustee a certification that it is a Qualified
Institutional Buyer that purchases (1) for its own account or (2) for the account of such a
Qualified Institutional Buyer, that is, in either case, aware that the resale, pledge or transfer
is being made in reliance on said Rule 144A and (ii) it will, and each subsequent holder will be
required to, notify any purchaser of any Certificate from it of the resale restrictions referred to
in clause (i) above.

     4. The Purchaser understands that each of Certificate will bear a legend to the following
effect, unless otherwise agreed by the Depositor and the Owner Trustee:

“OFFER AND SALE OF THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE

ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES AND
SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES AND ANY OTHER
APPLICABLE JURISDICTION. THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE OR AN INTEREST HEREIN
MAY NOT BE PURCHASED OR HELD WITH PLAN ASSETS OF ANY “EMPLOYEE BENEFIT
PLAN” AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3(3) OF THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME
SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED (“ERISA”), THAT IS SUBJECT TO TITLE I
OF ERISA, ANY “PLAN” AS DEFINED IN SECTION 4975(e)(1) OF THE INTERNAL
REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED, (THE “CODE”) THAT IS SUBJECT TO
SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR ANY ENTITY DEEMED TO HOLD THE “PLAN ASSETS”

TO THE FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY OR PROHIBITED TRANSACTION PROVISIONS OF
TITLE I OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE (“SIMILAR LAW”), IT SHALL
BE DEEMED TO REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT ITS ACQUISITION, HOLDING AND
DISPOSITION OF THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE OR AN INTEREST HEREIN WILL NOT
RESULT IN A NONEXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER, OR A VIOLATION OF,
SIMILAR LAW.”

     5. If the Purchaser is acquiring any Certificate as a fiduciary or agent for one or more
investor accounts, it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and that it
has full power to make the acknowledgements, representations and agreements contained herein on
behalf of such account.

     6. The Purchaser is not (a) an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA),
that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (b) a “plan” (as defined in Section
4975(e)(1) of the Code) that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or (c) any entity deemed to
hold the “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section
3(42) of ERISA) of any of the foregoing (each, a “Benefit Plan”). If the Purchaser is a
governmental plan, foreign plan or any other plan that is subject to any applicable law that is
substantially similar to the fiduciary responsibility or prohibited transaction provisions of Title
I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”), its acquisition, holding and
disposition

C-3

 

of any Certificate or an interest therein will not result in a nonexempt prohibited
transaction under, or a violation of, Similar Law.

     7. The Purchaser has neither acquired nor will it transfer any Certificate it purchases (or
any interest therein) or cause any such Certificates (or any interest therein) to be marketed on or
through an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Code,
including, without limitation, an over-the-counter-market or an interdealer quotation system that
regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations.

     8. The Purchaser either (A) is not, and will not become, a partnership, Subchapter S
corporation or grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) is such an entity, but
none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such transferee have
allowed or caused, or will allow or cause, 50% or more (or such other percentage as the Depositor
may establish prior to the time of such proposed transfer) of the value of such interests to be
attributable to such transferee’s ownership of Certificates.

     9. The Purchaser understands that no subsequent transfer of the Certificates is permitted
unless (A) such transfer is of a Certificate with a denomination of at least $250,000, (B) it
causes its proposed transferee to provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar a letter
substantially in the form of Exhibit C to the Trust Agreement, as applicable, or such other written
statement as the Depositor shall prescribe and (C) the Depositor consents in writing to the
proposed transfer, which consent shall be granted unless the Depositor determines that such
transfer would create a risk that the Issuing Entity or the Titling Trust would be classified for
federal or any applicable state tax purposes as an association (or a publicly traded partnership)
taxable, as a corporation; provided, however, that any attempted transfer that
would either cause (1) the number of registered holders of Certificates to exceed 95 or (2) the
number of holders of direct or indirect interests in the Titling Trust to exceed 50, shall be a
void transfer.

     10. The Purchaser understands that the opinion of counsel to the Issuing Entity that the
Issuing Entity is not a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation is dependent in part
on the accuracy of the representations in paragraphs 7, 8 and 9 above.

     11. The Purchaser is a Person who is either (A)(1) a citizen or resident of the United States,
(2) a corporation, partnership or other entity organized in or under the laws of the United States
or any political subdivision thereof or (3) a Person not described in (A)(1) or (2) whose ownership
of the Certificates is effectively connected with such Person’s conduct of a trade or business
within the United States (within the meaning of the Code) and its ownership of any interest in a
Certificate will not result in any withholding obligation with respect to any payments with respect
to the Certificates by any Person (other than withholding, if any, under Section 1446 of the Code)
or (B) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for federal income tax purposes
regardless of source or a trust if the court within the United States is able to exercise primary
supervision of the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons have the
authority to control all substantial decisions of the Issuing Entity. It agrees that it will
provide a certification of non-foreign status signed under penalty of perjury and, alternatively,
that if it is a Person described in clause (A)(3) above, it will furnish to the Depositor and the
Owner Trustee a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI and a new W-8ECI upon the expiration or
obsolescence of any previously delivered form (and such other

C-4

 

certifications, representations or Opinions of Counsel as may be requested by the Depositor
and the Owner Trustee).

     12. The Purchaser agrees that if at some time in the future it wishes to transfer or exchange
any of the Certificates, it will not transfer or exchange any of the Certificates unless such
transfer or exchange is in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Trust Agreement. The
Purchaser understands that any purported transfer of the Certificates (or any interest therein) in
contravention of any of the restrictions and conditions in the Trust Agreement, as applicable,
shall be a void, and the purported transferee in such transfer shall not be recognized by the
Issuing Entity or any other Person as a Certificateholder, as the case may, be for any purpose.

     13. The Purchaser hereby irrevocably requests you to arrange for definitive Certificates
representing the Certificates purchased by the Purchaser to be registered and delivered promptly
after the Closing Date as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Principal Amount of	 	 	 	Deliver Definitive
	Definitive Certificate:	 	Registered in Name of	 	Certificate to:
	 
	 

	 	 

	 	 

	 

	 	 

	 	 

	 

	 	 

	 	 

     You and the Owner Trustee are entitled to rely upon this letter and are irrevocably authorized
to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal
proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	Very truly yours,

 	 
	 	By:
