certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein
executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized
signatories, and such certificate upon any Note will be conclusive evidence, and
the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder.

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

               If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive
Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of
Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes will be exchangeable for Definitive Notes
upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer to
be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, without charge to the Noteholder. Upon
surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer will
execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so
exchanged, the temporary Notes will in all respects be entitled to the same
benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

               SECTION 2.4 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer will
provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of
Notes. The Trustee will be "Note Registrar" for the purpose of registering Notes
and transfers of Notes as herein provided. Upon any resignation of any Note
Registrar, the Issuer will promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to
make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note Registrar.

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

                                       12
<PAGE>

               Subject to Sections 2.10 and 2.12, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer to be
maintained as provided in Section 3.2, if the requirements of Section 8-401(1)
of the UCC are met the Issuer will execute and upon its request the Trustee will
authenticate and the Noteholder will obtain from the Trustee, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, in any authorized
denominations, of the same class and a like aggregate principal amount.

               At the option of the Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other
Notes in any authorized denominations, of the same class and a like aggregate
principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or
agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, subject to Sections
2.10 and 2.12, if the requirements of Section 8-401(1) of the UCC are met the
Issuer will execute and upon its request the Trustee will authenticate and the
Noteholder will obtain from the Trustee, the Notes which the Noteholder making
the exchange is entitled to receive.

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

               Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange will be (i) duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in the form attached to Exhibits A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4 and B
duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized
in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar which requirements
include membership or participation in Securities Transfer Agents Medallion
Program ("STAMP") or such other "signature guarantee program" as may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP,
all in accordance with the Exchange Act, and (ii) accompanied by such other
documents as the Trustee may require.

               Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any sale or other
transfer of a Definitive Note, the transferor of such Definitive Note will be
required to represent and warrant in writing that the prospective transferee
either (a) is not (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in section 3(3) of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA")),
which is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a plan (as defined
in section 4975(e)(1) of the Code), which is subject to Section 4975 of the
Code, or (iii) an entity whose underlying assets are deemed to be assets of a
plan described in (i) or (ii) above by reason of such plan's investment in the
entity (any such entity described in clauses (i) through (iii), a "Benefit Plan
Entity") or (b) is a Benefit Plan Entity, it is purchasing a Class A Note and
the acquisition and holding of such Definitive Note by such prospective
transferee is covered by a Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class
Exemption. Each transferee of a Book Entry Note that is a Benefit Plan Entity
and is purchasing a Class A Note will be deemed to represent that its
acquisition and holding of such Book Entry Note is covered by a Department of
Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption.

               No service charge will be made to a Noteholder for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Note Registrar may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of

                                       13
<PAGE>

transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.3 or
9.6 not involving any transfer.

the Issuer will not be required to make and the Note Registrar will not register
transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption or of any Note for a
period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the
Note.

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

               Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.5,
the Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

               Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.5 in
replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note will constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note will be at any time enforceable by
anyone, and will be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

               The provisions of this Section 2.5 are exclusive and will
preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to
the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any on such Note

               SECTION 2.12 Definitive Notes. If (i) the Servicer advises the
Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to
properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book Entry Notes,
and the Servicer is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Servicer at
its option advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the
book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of
an Event of Default, Note Owners representing beneficial interests aggregating
at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Book Entry Notes advise the
Trustee through the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book
entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of
the Owners of the Book Entry Notes, then the Clearing Agency will notify all
Owners of Book Entry Notes and the Trustee of the occurrence of any such event
and of the availability of Definitive Notes to such Owners requesting the same.
Upon surrender to the Trustee of the typewritten Note or Notes representing the
Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration
instructions, the Issuer will execute and the Trustee will authenticate the
Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency.
None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Trustee will be liable for any
delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and will be
fully protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Notes, the Trustee will recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes
as Noteholders.

                                    Covenants

        SECTION 3.1 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Issuer will duly and
punctually pay the principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with the
terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Issuer will cause to be distributed all amounts on deposit in the Note
Distribution Account on a Distribution Date deposited therein pursuant to the
Sale and Servicing Agreement (i) for the benefit of the Class A-l Notes, to
Class A-1 Noteholders, (ii) for the benefit of the Class A-2 Notes, to Class A-2
Noteholders, (iii) for the benefit of the Class A-3 Notes, to Class A-3
Noteholders, (iv) for the benefit of the Class A-4 Notes, to Class A-4
Noteholders and (v) for the benefit of the Class B Notes, to the Class B
Noteholders. Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a
payment to any Noteholder of interest and/or principal will be considered as
having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this
Indenture.

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

        SECTION 3.3 Money for Payments to be Held in Trust. On or before each
Distribution Date and Redemption Date, the Issuer will deposit or cause to be
deposited in the Note Distribution Account from the Collection Account (and
cause all other transfers to and from the accounts provided for herein to be
made) an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the
Notes, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto and (unless the Note Paying Agent is the Trustee) will promptly notify
the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

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

        (i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect
     to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until
     such sums will be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
     provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;

                                       18
<PAGE>

        (ii) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other
     obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the making of
     any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

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

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

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

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

        Subject to applicable laws with respect to the escheat of funds, any
money held by the Trustee or any Note Paying Agent in trust for the payment of
any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years
after such amount has become due and payable will be discharged from such trust
and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request with the consent of the Insurer
(unless an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) and will be deposited
by the Trustee in the Collection Account; and the Holder of such Note will
thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for
payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer),
and all liability of the Trustee or such Note Paying Agent with respect to such
trust money will thereupon cease; provided, however, that if such money or any
portion thereof had been previously deposited by the Insurer or the Trustee for
the payment of principal or interest on the Notes, to the extent any amounts are
owing to the Insurer, such amounts will be paid promptly to the Insurer upon the
Trustee's receipt of a written request by the Insurer to such effect; and
provided, further, that the Trustee or such Note Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such repayment, will at the expense of the Issuer cause to
be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily
published on each Business Day and of general circulation in New York, New York,
notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified
therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication,
any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer.
The Trustee will also adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuer, any other
reasonable means of notification of such repayment (including, but not limited
to, mailing notice of such repayment to Holders whose Notes have been called but
have not been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in moneys
due and payable but not

                                       19
<PAGE>

claimed is determinable from the records of the Trustee or of any Note Paying
Agent, at the last address of record for each such Holder).

        SECTION 3.4 Existence. Except as otherwise permitted by the provisions
of Section 3.10, the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and
franchises as a business trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless
it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the
laws of any other state or of the United States of America, in which case the
Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the
laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification
to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or will be
necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the
Notes, the Collateral and each other instrument or agreement included in the
Trust Estate.

        SECTION 3.5 Protection of Trust Estate. The Issuer intends the security
interest Granted pursuant to this Indenture in favor of the Issuer Secured
Parties to be prior to all other liens in respect of the Trust Estate, and the
Issuer will take all actions necessary to obtain and maintain, in favor of the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Issuer Secured Parties, a first lien on and a
first priority, perfected security interest in the Trust Estate. The Issuer will
from time to time prepare (or will cause to be prepared), execute and deliver
all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such financing statements,
continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments,
and will take such other action necessary or advisable to:

        (i) Grant more effectively all or any portion of the Trust Estate;

        (ii) maintain or preserve the lien and security interest (and the
     priority thereof) in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer
     Secured Parties created by this Indenture or carry out more effectively the
     purposes hereof;

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

        (iv) enforce any of the Collateral;

        (v) preserve and defend title to the Trust Estate and the rights of the
     Trustee in such Trust Estate against the claims of all persons and parties;
     and

     Estate when due.

The Issuer hereby designates the Trustee its agent and attorney-in-fact to

taken with respect to the recording and filing of this Indenture, any indentures
supplemental hereto, and any other requisite documents, and with respect to the
execution and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements, as
are necessary to perfect and make effective the first priority lien and security
interest in favor of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Issuer Secured Parties,
created by this Indenture and reciting the details of such action, or stating
that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to make such
lien and security interest effective.

        (b) Within 120 days after the beginning of each calendar year, beginning
with the first calendar year beginning more than six months after the Closing
Date, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee and the Insurer an Opinion of
Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has
been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of

following calendar year.

        SECTION 3.7 Performance of Obligations; Servicing of Receivables.

        (a) The Issuer will not take any action and will use its best efforts
not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person
from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument
or agreement included in the Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment,
hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the
validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except as
ordered by any bankruptcy or other court or as expressly provided in this
Indenture, the Basic Documents or such other instrument or agreement.

        (b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons acceptable to the Insurer
(so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) to assist it in
performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties
by a Person identified to the Trustee and the Insurer in an Officer's
Certificate of the Issuer will be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer;
provided that the Issuer will remain liable for performing these duties
hereunder. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer to assist the
Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture.

        (c) The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its
obligations and agreements contained in this Indenture, the Basic Documents and
in the instruments and agreements included in the Trust Estate, including,

Basic Document or any provision thereof without the consent of the Trustee, the
Insurer or the Majority Noteholders.

        (d) If a responsible officer of the Issuer has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event under the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee, the Insurer and the
Rating Agencies thereof in accordance with Section 11.4, and will specify in
such notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking in respect of such default.
If a Servicer Termination Event arises from the failure of the Servicer to
perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement
with respect to the Receivables, the Issuer will take all reasonable steps
available to it to remedy such failure.

        (e) The Issuer agrees that it will not waive timely performance or
observance by the Servicer or the Seller of their respective duties under the

Default has occurred and is continuing) or (y) if the effect thereof would
adversely affect the Holders of the Notes.

the Issuer will not:

     properties or assets of the Issuer, including those included in the Trust
     Estate, unless directed to do so by the Controlling Party;

        (ii) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or
     interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly

     or assessed upon any part of the Trust Estate; or

     burden the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any interest therein or the
     proceeds thereof (other than tax liens, mechanics' liens and other liens
     that arise by operation of law, in each case on a Financed Vehicle and

     any of the foregoing; or

        (vii) the Issuer becoming taxable as an association or a publicly traded

     representation or warranty of the Issuer made in this Indenture, in any
     Basic Document or in any certificate or any other writing delivered
     pursuant hereto or in connection herewith proving to have been incorrect in
     any material respect as of the time when the same has been made, and such
     default will continue or not be cured, or the circumstance or condition in
     respect of which such misrepresentation or warranty was incorrect will not
     have been eliminated or otherwise cured, for a period of 30 days (or for
     such longer period, not in excess of 90 days, as may be reasonably
     necessary to remedy such default) after there has been given, by registered
     or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Trustee or to the Issuer and the
     Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the
     Notes, a written notice specifying such default or incorrect representation
     or warranty and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is
     a "Notice of Default" hereunder.

                                       29
<PAGE>

        The Issuer will deliver to the Trustee and the Insurer, within five days
after knowledge of the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an
Officer's Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice and the lapse
of time would become an Event of Default under clause (iii), its status and what
action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

        SECTION 5.2 Rights Upon Event of Default.

        (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Controlling Party may exercise any of the remedies specified in Section 5.4(a).
In the event of any acceleration of any Notes by operation of this Section 5.2,
the Trustee will continue to be entitled to make claims under the Note Policy
pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement for Scheduled Payments on the
Notes. Payments under the Note Policy following acceleration of any Notes will
be applied by the Trustee:

        FIRST: to Class A Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Class A
     Notes for interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind,
     according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A Notes for interest;
     and

        SECOND: first, to the Class A-1 Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid
     for principal, then to Holders of the other Classes of Class A Notes for
     amounts due and unpaid on such Class A Notes for principal, ratably,
     without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due
     and payable on such Class A Notes for principal.

        (b) In the event any Notes are accelerated due to an Event of Default,
the Insurer has the right (in addition to its obligation to pay Scheduled
Payments on the Notes in accordance with the Note Policy), but not the
obligation, to make payments under the Note Policy or otherwise of interest and
principal due on such Notes, in whole or in part, on any date or dates following
such acceleration as the Insurer, in its sole discretion, will elect.

        (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than Events
of Default specified in Section 5.1(v) and (vi)), the Trustee may, with consent
of the Insurer (if the Insurer is the Controlling Party), and will, at the
direction of the Controlling Party, declare by written notice to the Issuer that
the Notes become, whereupon they will become, immediately due and payable to
par, together with accrued interest thereon. If an Event of Default specified in
Section 5.1(v) or (vi) occurs, the Notes will automatically become due and
payable at par, together with interest thereon, without any declaration or other
act on the part of its Trustee, any Noteholder or the Controlling Party.

        (d) If at any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity
has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has
been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the
Controlling Party, by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

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

                                       30
<PAGE>

                             (A) all payments of principal of and interest on
                      all Notes and all other amounts that would then be due
                      hereunder or upon such Notes if the Event of Default
                      giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and

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

        (ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal
     of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been
     cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13.

        No such rescission will affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereto.

        SECTION 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee.

        (a) The Issuer covenants that, notwithstanding any rights of any other
party herein to exercise any of its remedies as provided herein, if (i) default
is made in the payment of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and
payable, and such default continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default
is made in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal
of any Note when the same becomes due and payable, the Issuer will pay to the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due
and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the
overdue principal, and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest will be
legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at the applicable
Interest Rate and in addition thereto such further amount as will be sufficient
to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents
and counsel.

        (b) Each Issuer Secured Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
appoints the Controlling Party as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of such
Issuer Secured Party, with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge
and deliver any notice, document, certificate, paper, pleading or instrument and
to do in the name of the Controlling Party as well as in the name, place and
stead of such Issuer Secured Party such acts, things and deeds for or on behalf
of and in the name of such Issuer Secured Party under this Indenture (including
specifically under Section 5.4) and under the Basic Documents which such Issuer
Secured Party could or might do or which may be necessary, desirable or
convenient in such Controlling Party's sole discretion to effect the purposes
contemplated hereunder and under the Basic Documents and, without limitation,
following the occurrence of an Event of Default, exercise full right, power and
authority to take, or defer from taking, any and all acts with respect to the
administration, maintenance or disposition of the Trust Estate.

        (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
with the consent of the Controlling Party and will, at the direction of the
Controlling Party, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of
the Noteholders by such appropriate Proceedings as the Trustee or the
Controlling Party will deem most effective to protect and enforce any such

                                       31
<PAGE>

        rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
        agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power
        granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or
        equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

        (d) [Reserved.]

        (e) In case there will be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in
the Trust Estate, proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any
other applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law,
or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization,
liquidator, sequestrator or similar official has been appointed for or taken
possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in
case of any other comparable judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or
other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or
such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any
Notes will then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee has made any demand pursuant
to the provisions of this Section, will be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceedings or otherwise to, and may with the Insurer's
consent (so long as the Insurer is the Controlling Party), and will, at the
direction of the Controlling Party:

        (i) file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal
     and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and file such other
     papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
     claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to
     the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents,
     attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and
     liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each
     predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence, bad faith or willful
     misconduct) and of the Noteholders allowed in such proceedings;

        (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, vote on behalf
     of the Noteholders in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or
     person performing similar functions in any such proceedings;

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

        (iv) file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be
     necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee or the
     Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its
     creditors and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in
any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make
payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee will consent to the
making of payments directly, to such Noteholders, to pay to the Trustee such
amounts as will be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee,
each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and
all

                                       32
<PAGE>

other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee
and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

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

        (g) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture or
under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of
any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other proceedings
relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Trustee
will be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery
of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and
compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective
agents and attorneys, will be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the
Notes.

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

        SECTION 5.4 Remedies.

        (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Notes
have been declared due and payable and such declaration and its consequences
have not been rescinded, the Trustee may, with the consent of the Insurer (so
long as the Insurer is the Controlling Party) and will, at the direction of the
Controlling Party, do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.5):

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

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

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

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

                                       33
<PAGE>

                      (A) if the Insurer is the Controlling Party, the Insurer
               may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate unless the
               proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the
               Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then
               due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest (except
               that, if the proceeds are not sufficient to discharge all amounts
               due the Class B Noteholders, and all of the Class B Noteholders
               have consented to such sale, then the Insurer may sell or
               liquidate the Trust Estate); or

                      (B) if the Trustee is the Controlling Party, the Trustee
               may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate following an
               Event of Default unless

                             (I) such Event of Default is of the type described
                      in Section 5.1(i) or (ii), or

                             (II) either

                                    (x) the Majority Noteholders consent
                             thereto, or

                                    (y) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation
                             distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to
                             discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid
                             upon such Notes for principal and interest, or

                                    (z) the Trustee determines that the Trust
                             Estate will not continue to provide sufficient
                             funds for the payment of principal of and interest
                             on the Notes as they would have become due if the
                             Notes had not been declared due and payable, and
                             the Trustee provides prior written notice to the
                             Rating Agencies and obtains the consent of Holders
                             of 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

        In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause
(y) and (z), the Trustee may, but need not, obtain and conclusively rely upon an
opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national
reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the
sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

        SECTION 5.5 Optional Preservation of the Receivables. If the Trustee is
the Controlling Party and if the Notes have been declared to be due and payable
under Section 5.2 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its
consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Trustee may but need not
maintain possession of the Trust Estate. It is the desire of the parties hereto
and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment
of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Trustee will take such desire
into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust
Estate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the
Trustee may, but need not, obtain and conclusively rely upon an opinion of an
Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to
the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust
Estate for such purpose.

        SECTION 5.6 Priorities.

        (a) Following (1) the acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 5.2
or (2) if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, the occurrence of
an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.1(i), 5.1(ii), 5.1(v), 5.1(vi),
5.1(vii), 5.1(viii) or 5.1(ix) of this Indenture or (3) the receipt of
Insolvency Proceeds pursuant to Section 10.1(b) of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Distribution Amount, including any money or property collected
pursuant to Section 5.4 of this Indenture and any such Insolvency Proceeds, will
be applied by the Trustee; after the payment of all amounts owing to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Indenture, on the related Distribution Date in
the following order of priority:

        FIRST: amounts due and owing and required to be distributed to the
     Servicer (provided there is no Servicer Termination Event), the Owner
     Trustee, the Trustee, and Back Up Servicer, respectively, pursuant to
     priorities (i) and (ii) of Section 5.7(b) of the Sale and Servicing
     Agreement and not previously distributed, in the order of such priorities
     as set forth therein and without limitation, preference or priority of any
     kind within such priorities;

        SECOND: to the Holders of the Class A Notes, for amounts due and unpaid
     on such Class A Notes for interest, ratably, without preference or priority
     of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A Notes
     for interest;

        THIRD: to Class B Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Class B
     Notes for interest;

        FOURTH: to the Class A-1 Noteholders, for amounts due and unpaid on the
     Class A-1 Notes for principal, then, to the Holders of the other classes of
     Class A Notes, for amounts due and unpaid on such Class A Notes for
     principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according
     to the amounts due and payable on such Class A Notes for principal;

        FIFTH: amounts due and owing and required to be distributed to the
     Insurer pursuant to priorities (x) and (xiii) of Section 5.7(b) of the Sale
     and Servicing Agreement and not previously distributed);

        SIXTH: to Class B Noteholders for amounts due and unpaid on the Class B
     Notes for principal; and

        SEVENTH: any remainder to the Holders of the Certificates.

        (b) The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment
to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.6. At least 15 days before such record
date the Issuer will mail to each Noteholder and the Trustee a notice that
states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

        SECTION 5.7 Limitation of Suits. No Holder of any Note has any right to
institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture,
or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy
hereunder, unless:

                                       35
<PAGE>

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

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

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

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

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

        (vi) the Insurer is not the Controlling Party;

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

        In the event the Trustee receives conflicting or inconsistent requests
and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each representing less
than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the Trustee will act at
the direction of the group of Noteholders with the greater Outstanding Amount of
Notes, provided, however, that in the event the Trustee receives conflicting or
inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders
representing an equal Outstanding Amount of Notes, the Trustee in its sole
discretion may determine what action, if any, will be taken, notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Indenture.

        SECTION 5.8 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and
Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of
any Note has the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment
of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or after the
respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture (or, in
the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) and to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right will not be impaired
without the consent of such Holder.

        SECTION 5.9 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Controlling Party
or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such
Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Trustee and the
Noteholders will, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be

                                       36
<PAGE>

restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Noteholders will
continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

        SECTION 5.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Controlling Party or to the Noteholders is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy will, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment
of any other appropriate right or remedy.

        SECTION 5.11 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the
Trustee, the Controlling Party or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right
or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default will impair any such
right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default
or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by
law to the Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and
as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Noteholders, as
the case may be.

        SECTION 5.12 Control by Noteholders. If the Trustee is the Controlling
Party, the Majority Noteholders will have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee
with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee; provided that

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

        (ii) subject to the express terms of Section 5.4, any direction to the
     Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate will be by the Noteholders
     representing not less than 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes;

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

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

provided, however, that, subject to Article VI, the Trustee need not take any
action that it determines might involve it in liability, financial or otherwise,
without receiving indemnity satisfactory to it, or might materially adversely
affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

        SECTION 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Insurer may, or if an Insurer
Default has occurred and is continuing, prior to the declaration of the
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.4, the
Majority Noteholders may, waive any past Default or

                                       37
<PAGE>

Event of Default and its consequences except a Default (a) in payment of
principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or
provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
Holder of each Note. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and
the Holders of the Notes will be restored to their former positions and rights
hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or
other Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

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

        SECTION 5.14 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree,
and each Holder of any Note by such Holder's acceptance thereof will be deemed
to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for
the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee,
the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs
of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit,
having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by
such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section will not apply to (a)
any suit instituted by the Trustee or the Controlling Party, (b) any suit
instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in
the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or (c) any
suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of
principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates
expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of redemption, on
or after the Redemption Date).

        SECTION 5.15 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon,
or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of,
any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in
force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and
the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives
all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but
will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law
had been enacted.

        SECTION 5.16 Action on Notes. The Trustee's right to seek and recover
judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture will not be affected by the
seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to
this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of
the Trustee or the Noteholders will be impaired by the recovery of any judgment
by the Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such
judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the
Issuer.

                                       38
<PAGE>

        SECTION 5.17 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations.

        (a) Promptly following a request from the Trustee to do so and at the
Servicer's expense, the Issuer agrees to take all such lawful action as the
Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the
Servicer, of its obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale
and Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, and to exercise
any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the
Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the
extent and in the manner directed by the Trustee, including the institution of
legal or administrative actions or Proceedings to compel or secure performance
by the Servicer of its obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

        (b) If the Trustee is a Controlling Party and if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Trustee may, and, at the written direction of
the Majority Noteholders will, subject to Article VI, exercise all rights,
remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Servicer under
or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement, including the right or
power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the
Servicer of its obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent,
request, notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver under the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, and any right of the Issuer to take such action will be
suspended.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                   The Trustee

        SECTION 6.1 Duties of Trustee.

        (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
will exercise, subject to the provisions of Article V, the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture and the Basic Documents to which it is a Party
and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's
own affairs.

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

        (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties
     as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or
     obligations will be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

        (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
     conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of
     the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to
     the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; however,
     the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether
     or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture.

        (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except
that:

                                       39
<PAGE>

        (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of Section 6.1 (b);

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

        (iii) the Trustee will not be liable with respect to any action it takes
     or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by
     it pursuant to Section 5.12.

        (d) The Trustee will not be liable for interest on any money received by
it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.

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

        (f) No provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers,
if it has reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or
indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not
assured to it.

        (g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or
affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee will be
subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and to the provisions of the TIA.

        (h) The Trustee will, upon two Business Days' prior notice to the
Trustee, permit any representative of the Insurer at the expense of the Trust,
during the Trustee's normal business hours, to examine all books of account,
records, reports and other papers of the Trustee relating to the Notes, to make
copies and extracts therefrom and to discuss the Trustee's affairs and actions,
as such affairs and actions relate to the Trustee's duties with respect to the
Notes, with the Trustee's officers and employees responsible for carrying out
the Trustee's duties with respect to the Notes.

        (i) The Trustee will, and hereby agrees that it will, perform all of the
obligations and duties required of it under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

        (j) The Trustee will, and hereby agrees that it will, hold the Note
Policy in trust, and will hold any proceeds of any claim on the Note Policy in
trust solely for the use and benefit of the Noteholders.

        (k) Without limiting the generality of this Section 6.1, the Trustee
will have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing or depositing of this
Indenture or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement
evidencing a security interest in the Financed Vehicles, or to see to the
maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any recording,
refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (ii) to see to any insurance of the
Financed Vehicles or Obligors or to effect or maintain any such insurance, (iii)
to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment or other governmental
charge or any Lien or encumbrance of

                                       40
<PAGE>

any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied against any part of the
Trust, (iv) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates
delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing
Agreement believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties, or (v) to inspect the Financed
Vehicles at any time or ascertain or inquire as to the performance of observance
of any of the Issuer's, the Seller's or the Servicer's representations,
warranties or covenants or the Servicer's duties and obligations as Servicer and
as custodian of the Receivable Files under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

        (l) In no event will JPMorgan Chase Bank, in any of its capacities
hereunder, be deemed to have assumed any duties of the Owner Trustee under the
Delaware Business Trust Statute, common law, or the Trust Agreement.

        SECTION 6.2 Rights of Trustee.

        (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely on any report, certificate,
opinion, statement or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate
any fact or matter stated in the document.

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

        (c) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys or a custodian or nominee, and the Trustee will not be responsible for
any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, Triad
Financial Corporation, or any other such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee
appointed with due care by it hereunder.

        (d) The Trustee will not be liable for any action it takes or omits to
take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers; provided, however, that the Trustee's conduct does not constitute
willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

        (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of
counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes
will be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect
to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in
accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

        (f) The Trustee will be under no obligation to institute, conduct or
defend any litigation under this Indenture or in relation to this Indenture, at
the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders or the Controlling
Party, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Noteholders or
the Controlling Party has offered to the Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred
therein or thereby; provided, however, that the Trustee will, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default (that has not been cured), exercise the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture, subject to Article V, with reasonable
care and skill.

                                       41
<PAGE>

        (g) The Trustee will not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper
or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Insurer (so long as no
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) or (if an Insurer Default has
occurred and is continuing) by the Noteholders evidencing not less than 25% of
the Outstanding Amount thereof; provided, however, that if the payment within a
reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to
be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by
the terms of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee may
require reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or liability as a
condition to so proceeding; the reasonable expense of every such examination
will be paid by the Person making such request, or, if paid by the Trustee, will
be reimbursed by the Person making such request upon demand.

        (h) The Trustee will not be liable for any losses on investments except
for losses resulting from the failure of the Trustee to make an investment in
accordance with instructions given in accordance hereunder. If the Trustee acts
as the Note Paying Agent or Note Registrar, the rights and protections afforded
to the Trustee will be afforded to the Note Paying Agent and Note Registrar.

        (i) The Trustee will not be required to take notice or be deemed to have
notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or Servicer Termination
Event unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice or
obtained actual knowledge thereof. In the absence of receipt of such notice or
actual knowledge, the Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no Default
or Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event.

        (j) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no
event will the Trustee liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or
damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even
if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and
regardless of the form of action.

        SECTION 6.3 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual
or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise
deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it
were not Trustee. Any Note Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-Note
Paying Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply
with Sections 6.11 and 6.12.

        SECTION 6.4 Trustee's Disclaimer. The Trustee will not be responsible
for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this
Indenture, the Trust Estate or the Notes, it will not be accountable for the
Issuer's use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it will not be responsible for
any statement of the Issuer in the Indenture or in any document issued in
connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee's
certificate of authentication.

        SECTION 6.5 Notice of Defaults. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing and if it is either known by, or written notice of the existence
thereof has been delivered to, a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee
will mail to each Noteholder

                                       42
<PAGE>

notice of the Default within 90 days after such knowledge or notice occurs.
Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any
Note (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such
Note), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as it in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

        SECTION 6.6 Reports by Trustee to Holders. The Trustee will deliver to
each Noteholder such information as may be reasonably required to enable such
Holder to prepare its federal and State income tax returns.

        SECTION 6.7 Compensation and Indemnity.

        (a) Pursuant to Section 5.7(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the
Issuer will, or will cause the Servicer to, pay to the Trustee and the Backup
Servicer from time to time compensation for its services as per a separate fee
schedule. The Trustee's compensation will not be limited by any law on
compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer will, or will cause
the Servicer to reimburse the Trustee and the Backup Servicer for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in
addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses will include the
reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee's and the Backup Servicer's agents, counsel, accountants and experts.
The Issuer will, or will cause the Servicer to, indemnify the Trustee and the
Backup Servicer and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents
against any and all loss, liability or expense (including attorneys' fees and
expenses) incurred by each of them in connection with the acceptance or the
administration of this Trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The
Trustee or the Backup Servicer will notify the Issuer and the Servicer promptly
of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee or the
Backup Servicer to so notify the Issuer and the Servicer will not relieve the
Issuer of its obligations hereunder or the Servicer of its obligations under
Section 8.2 and Article XI of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Issuer will,
or will cause the Servicer to, defend the claim, and if failure to provide
separate counsel will result in a conflict of interest, the Trustee or the
Backup Servicer may have separate counsel and the Issuer will cause the Servicer
to pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor the
Servicer need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or
expense incurred by the Trustee or the Backup Servicer through the Trustee's or
the Backup Servicer's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

        (b) The Issuer's payment obligations to the Trustee and the Backup
Servicer pursuant to this Section 6.7 will survive the discharge of this
Indenture or the respective earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee or the
Backup Servicer. When the Trustee or the Backup Servicer incurs expenses after
the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.1(iv) or (v) with respect to
the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or
State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. Notwithstanding anything else set
forth in this Indenture or the Basic Documents, the Trustee agrees that the
obligations of the Issuer (but not the Servicer) to the Trustee hereunder and
under the Basic Documents will be recourse to the Trust Estate only and
specifically will not be recourse to the assets of the Certificateholder or any
Noteholder. In addition, the Trustee agrees that its recourse to the Issuer, the
Trust Estate, the Seller and amounts held in the Spread Account will be limited
to the right to receive the distributions referred to in Section 5.7(b) of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 5.6 hereof.

                                       43
<PAGE>

        SECTION 6.8 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time
by so notifying the Issuer and the Insurer. The Issuer may, with the consent of
the Controlling Party, and will at the request of the Controlling Party, remove
the Trustee, if:

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

        (ii) a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the
     Trustee in an involuntary case or proceeding under federal or State banking
     or bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other
     applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law,
     has entered a decree or order granting relief or appointing a receiver,
     liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, conservator, sequestrator (or
     similar official) for the Trustee or for any substantial part of the
     Trustee's property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the
     Trustee's affairs;

        (iii) an involuntary case under the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or
     hereafter in effect, or another present or future federal or State
     bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law is commenced with respect to the
     Trustee and such case is not dismissed within 60 days;

        (iv) the Trustee commences a voluntary case under any federal or state
     banking or bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted, or any other
     applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or
     consents to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver,
     liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, conservator, sequestrator (or
     other similar official) for the Trustee or for any substantial part of the
     Trustee's property, or makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors or
     fails generally to pay its debts as such debts become due or takes any
     corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

        (v) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting.

        If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the
office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to
herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer will promptly appoint a successor
Trustee acceptable to the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default has occurred
and is continuing). If the Issuer fails to appoint such a successor Trustee, the
Insurer may appoint a successor Trustee.

        A successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment
to the retiring Trustee, the Insurer (provided that no Insurer Default has
occurred and is continuing) and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, subject to satisfaction
of the Rating Agency Condition and the successor Trustee will have all the
rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trustee under this Indenture. The
successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. The
retiring Trustee, at the expense of the Trust, will promptly transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee.

        If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed (notwithstanding that such resignation or
removal is not effective), the retiring Trustee, the Issuer or the Holders of a
majority in Outstanding Amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

                                       44
<PAGE>

        If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder with
the Insurer's consent (unless an Insurer Default exists) may petition any court
of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of
a successor Trustee.

        Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section will not become
effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee pursuant to
Section 6.8 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Trustee.

        Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section,
the Issuer's and the Servicer's obligations under Section 6.7 will continue for
the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

        SECTION 6.9 Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates
with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its
corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking
association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any
further act will be the successor Trustee; provided, that the surviving
corporation must satisfy the eligibility criteria set forth in Section 6.11. The
Trustee will provide the Rating Agencies prior written notice of any such
transaction.

        In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion
or consolidation to the Trustee will succeed to the trusts created by this
Indenture any of the Notes will have been authenticated but not delivered, any
such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any
predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at
that time any of the Notes will not have been authenticated, any successor to
the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor
hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases
such certificates will have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or
in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee will have.

        SECTION 6.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

        (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time,
for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which
any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the Trustee with the consent
of the Insurer (so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing)
will have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one
or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or
separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person
or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title
to the Trust, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may
consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder
will be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under
Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee
or separate trustee will be required under Section 6.8 hereof.

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

                                       45
<PAGE>

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

        (ii) no trustee hereunder will be personally liable by reason of any act
     or omission of any other trustee hereunder, including acts or omissions of
     predecessor or successor trustees; and

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

        (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee will 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 will refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
the trusts conferred, will be vested with the estates or property specified in
its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as
may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture,
specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument will be filed with the Trustee.

        (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the
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
will die, dissolve, become insolvent, become incapable of acting, resign or be
removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts will invest
in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.

        (e) Any and all amounts relating to the fees and expenses of the
co-trustee or separate trustee will be borne by the Trust Estate.

        SECTION 6.11 Eligibility: Disqualification. The Trustee will at all
times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee will have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most
recent published annual report of condition and it will have a long term debt
rating of BBB-, or an equivalent rating, or better by the Rating Agencies. The
Trustee will provide copies of such reports to the Insurer upon request. The
Trustee will comply with TIA Section 310(b), including the optional provision
permitted by the second sentence of TIA Section 310(b)(9); provided, however,
that there will be excluded from the operation

                                       46
<PAGE>

of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other
securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion
set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met.

        SECTION 6.12 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. The
Trustee will comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship
listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed will be
subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

        SECTION 6.13 Representations and Warranties of the Trustee. The Trustee
represents and warrants to the Issuer and to each Issuer Secured Party as
follows:

        (a) Due Organization. The Trustee is a New York banking corporation and
is duly authorized and licensed under applicable law to conduct its business as
presently conducted.

or filings, including any governmental approvals, are required for the valid
execution and delivery by the Trustee, or the performance by the Trustee, of
this Indenture and such other Basic Documents.

        (d) Valid and Binding Indenture. The Trustee has duly executed and
delivered this Indenture and each other Basic Document to which it is a party,
and each of this Indenture and each such other Basic Document constitutes the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Trustee, enforceable against the
Trustee in accordance with its terms, except as (i) such enforceability may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and similar laws relating to
or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) the
availability of equitable remedies may be limited by equitable principles of
general applicability.

        SECTION 6.14 Waiver of Setoffs. The Trustee hereby expressly waives any
and all rights of setoff that the Trustee may otherwise at any time have under
applicable law with respect to any Trust Account and agrees that amounts in the
Trust Accounts will at all times be held and applied solely in accordance with
the provisions hereof.

        SECTION 6.15 Control by the Controlling Party. The Trustee will comply
with notices and instructions given by the Issuer only if accompanied by the

notices and instructions given by the Controlling Party alone in the place and
stead of the Issuer.

days after receipt by the Issuer of any such request, a list of similar form and
content as of a date not more than 10 days prior to the time such list is
furnished; provided, however, that so long as the Trustee is the Note Registrar,
no such list will be required to be furnished. The Trustee or, if the Trustee is
not the Note Registrar, the Issuer will furnish to the Insurer in writing at
such times as the Insurer may request a copy of the list.

               SECTION 7.2 Preservation of Information; Communications to
Noteholders.

               (a) The Trustee will preserve, in as current a form as is

        required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual
        reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies
        of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time
        to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Issuer may be
        required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of
        the Exchange Act;

               (ii) file with the Trustee and the Commission in accordance with
        rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission

<PAGE>

               (iii) supply to the Trustee (and the Trustee will transmit by

Trustee will mail to each Noteholder as required by TIA Section 313(c) a brief

               A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders
will be filed by the Trustee with the Commission and each stock exchange, if
any, on which the Notes are listed. The Issuer will notify the Trustee if and

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                      Accounts, Disbursements and Releases

               SECTION 8.1 Collection of Money. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, the Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and will receive
and collect, directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent
or other intermediary, all money and other property payable to or receivable by
the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The
Trustee will apply all such money received by it as provided in this Indenture
and the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Indenture or in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, if any default occurs in
the making of any payment or performance under any agreement or instrument that
is part of the Trust Estate, the Trustee may take such action as may be
appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution
and prosecution of appropriate proceedings. Any such action will be without
prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this
Indenture and any right to proceed thereafter as provided in Article V.

               SECTION 8.2 Release of Trust Estate.

               (a) Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses and other
amounts pursuant to Section 6.7, the Trustee may (with the Insurer's consent, so
long as the Insurer is the Controlling Party), and will at the Controlling
Party's direction, execute instruments to release property from the lien of this
Indenture, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with
the provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed
by the Trustee as provided in this Article VIII will be bound to ascertain the
Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent
or see to the application of any moneys.

               (b) The Trustee will, at such time as there are no Notes
outstanding, all sums due the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 and all sums due
the Insurer under the Insurance Agreement have been paid, release any remaining
portion of the Trust Estate that secured the

                                       49
<PAGE>

Notes from the lien of this Indenture and release to the Issuer or any other
Person entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Trust Accounts. The
Trustee will release property from the lien of this Indenture pursuant to this
Section 8.2(b) only upon receipt of an Issuer Request accompanied by an
Officer's Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and (if required by the TIA)
Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1)
meeting the applicable requirements of Section 11.1.

               SECTION 8.3 Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee will receive at least
seven days' notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action pursuant to
Section 8.2(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the
Trustee may also require as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel in
form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, stating the legal effect of any
such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding
that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied
with and such action will not materially and adversely impair the security for
the Notes or the rights of the Noteholders in contravention of the provisions of
this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel will not be
required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Trust Estate. Counsel
rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the
accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the
Trustee in connection with any such action.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                             Supplemental Indentures

               SECTION 9.1 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of
Noteholders. Without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but with the
consent of the Insurer (unless an Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing) and with prior notice to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, as
evidenced to the Trustee, the Issuer and the Trustee, when authorized by an
Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more
indentures supplemental hereto (which will conform to the provisions of the
Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of the execution thereof), in form
satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes; provided that
such action will not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes
or of the Insurer as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to the Issuer:

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

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

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

                                       50
<PAGE>

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

               (v) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
        herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be inconsistent with
        any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or to make
        any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under
        this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture;

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

               (vii) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this
        Indenture to such extent as will be necessary to effect the
        qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar
        federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such
        other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA.

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

               SECTION 9.2 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Noteholders.
The Issuer and the Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, also may, with
prior notice to the Rating Agencies, with the consent of the Insurer (unless an
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) and with the consent of the
Majority Noteholders, by Act of such Holders delivered to the Issuer and the
Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the
purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the
rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however,
that, if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, such supplemental
indenture will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Insurer,
and that subject to the express rights of the Insurer under the Basic Documents,
no such supplemental indenture will, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Note affected thereby:

               (i) change the date of payment of any installment of principal of
        or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, the
        interest rate thereon or the Redemption Price with respect thereto,
        change the provision of this Indenture relating to the application of
        collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate to
        payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of
        payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the
        interest thereon is payable;

               (ii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of
        the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds
        available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such
        amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof
        (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date);

                                       51
<PAGE>

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

               (iv) modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the
        definition of the term "Outstanding";

               (v) reduce the percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes
        required to direct the Trustee to direct the Issuer to sell or liquidate
        the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.4;

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

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

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

               The Trustee may determine whether or not any Notes would be
affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination will be
conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter
authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Trustee will not be liable for any
such determination made in good faith.

               It will not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this
Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental
indenture, but it will be sufficient if such Act will approve the substance
thereof.

               Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.2, the Trustee will mail to
the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture
relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such
supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Trustee to mail such notice, or any
defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of
any such supplemental indenture.

               SECTION 9.3 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing,
or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture
permitted by this Article

                                       52
<PAGE>

IX or the amendments or modifications thereby of the trusts created by this
Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive, will be fully protected in
relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such
supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee
may, but will not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture
that affects the Trustee's own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise.

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

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

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

                               Redemption of Notes

               SECTION 10.1  Redemption.

               (a) The Notes are subject to redemption in whole, but not in
part, at the direction of the Servicer pursuant to Section 10.1(a) of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement, on any Distribution Date on which the Servicer
exercises its option to purchase the Owner Trust Estate, other than the Trust
Accounts, on the last day of any Collection Period as of which the Pool Balance
will be less than or equal to 10% of the Original Pool Balance, (with the
consent of the Insurer if such purchase would result in a claim on the Note
Policy or would result in any amount owing to the Insurer under the Insurance
Agreement remaining unpaid) pursuant to said Section 10.1(a), for a purchase
price equal to the Redemption Price; provided, however, that the Issuer has
available funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price. The Servicer or the
Issuer will furnish the Insurer and the Rating Agencies notice of such
redemption. If the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 10.1(a),
the Servicer or the Issuer will furnish notice of such

                                       53
<PAGE>

election to the Trustee not later than 25 days prior to the Redemption Date and
the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee in the Collection Account the
Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed at least two Business Days prior to
the Redemption Date whereupon all such Notes will be due and payable on the
Redemption Date upon the furnishing of a notice complying with Section 10.2 to
each Holder of Notes.

               (b) In the event that the assets of the Trust are distributed
pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Trust Agreement, all amounts on deposit in the
Note Distribution Account will be paid to the Noteholders up to the Outstanding
Amount of the Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. If amounts are
to be paid to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 10.1(b), the Servicer or the
Issuer will, to the extent practicable, furnish notice of such event to the
Trustee not later than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date whereupon all such
amounts will be payable on the Redemption Date.

               SECTION 10.2 Form of Redemption Notice.

               Notice of redemption under Section 10.1 will be given by the
Trustee by facsimile or by first-class mail, postage prepaid, transmitted or
mailed prior to the applicable Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes, as of
the close of business on the Record Date preceding the applicable Redemption
Date, at such Holder's address appearing in the Note Register.

               All notices of redemption will state:

               (i) the Redemption Date;

               (ii) the Redemption Price;

               (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
        Redemption Date is not applicable and that payments will be made only
        upon presentation and surrender of such Notes and the place where such
        Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price (which
        will be the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided
        in Section 3.2); and

               (iv) that interest on the Notes will cease to accrue on the
Redemption Date.

               Notice of redemption of the Notes will be given by the Trustee in
the name and at the expense of the Issuer. Failure to give notice of redemption,
or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Note will not impair or affect the
validity of the redemption of any other Note.

               SECTION 10.3 Notes Payable on Redemption Date. The Notes to be
redeemed will, following notice of redemption as required by Section 10.2 (in
the case of redemption pursuant to Section 10.1(a)), on the Redemption Date
become due and payable at the Redemption Price and (unless the Issuer will
default in the payment of the Redemption Price) no interest will accrue on the
Redemption Price for any period after the date to which accrued interest is
calculated for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                  Miscellaneous

               SECTION 11.1 Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc. Upon any
application or request by the Issuer to the Trustee to take any action under any
provision of this Indenture, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee and to the
Insurer (i) an Officer's Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if
any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been
complied with, (ii) if requested by the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating
that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have
been complied with and (iii) (if required by the TIA) an Independent Certificate
from a firm of certified public accountants meeting the applicable requirements
of this Section, except that, in the case of any such application or request as
to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any
provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be
furnished.

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

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

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

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

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

               (b) (i)(i) Prior to the deposit of any Collateral or other
property or securities with the Trustee that is to be made the basis for the
release of any property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture,
other than in connection with a release of any Purchased Receivable or
Liquidated Receivable, the Issuer will, in addition to any obligation imposed in
Section 11.1(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Trustee and the
Insurer an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each
person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such
deposit) to the Issuer of the Collateral or other property or securities to be
so deposited.

        (ii) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Trustee and the
        Insurer an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of
        any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the
        Issuer will also deliver to the Trustee and the Insurer an Independent
        Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to the Issuer of

                                       55
<PAGE>

        the securities to be so deposited and of all other such securities made
        the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of
        the then-current fiscal year of the Issuer, as set forth in the
        certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and this clause
        (ii), is 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such a
        certificate need not be furnished with respect to any securities so
        deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuer as set forth in the
        related Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than 1%
        percent of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.

               (iii) Other than with respect to the release of any Purchased
        Receivables or Liquidated Receivables, whenever any property or
        securities are to be released from the lien of this Indenture, the
        Issuer will also furnish to the Trustee and the Insurer an Officer's
        Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing
        such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such release)
        of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that
        in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the
        security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

               (iv) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Trustee
        and the Insurer an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the
        opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause
        (iii) above, the Issuer will also furnish to the Trustee and the Insurer
        an Independent Certificate as to the same matters if the fair value of
        the property or securities and of all other property other than
        Purchased Receivables and Defaulted Receivables, or securities released
        from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement of the then
        current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates required by
        clause (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of the
        Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such certificate need not be
        furnished in the case of any release of property or securities if the
        fair value thereof as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is
        less than $25,000 or less than 1 percent of the then Outstanding Amount
        of the Notes.

               (v) Notwithstanding Section 2.9 or any other provision of this
        Section 11.1(b), the Issuer may (A) collect, liquidate, sell or
        otherwise dispose of Receivables as and to the extent permitted or
        required by the Basic Documents and (B) make cash payments out of the
        Trust Accounts as and to the extent permitted or required by the Basic
        Documents.

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

               Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer
may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or
opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which his or her

                                       56
<PAGE>

certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an
Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to
factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an
officer or officers of the Servicer, the Seller or the Issuer, stating that the
information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the
Servicer, the Seller or the Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.

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

               Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer will
deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as
evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that
the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at
the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the
facts and opinions stated in such document will in such case be conditions
precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the
sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing will not, however, be
construed to affect the Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of
any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article
VI.

               SECTION 11.3 Acts of Noteholders.

               (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken
by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents
duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided
such action will become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the
Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and
evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the
Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent will be sufficient for
any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor
of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section
11.3.

               (b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved in any customary manner of the Trustee.

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

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

sent to the attention of the General Counsel "URGENT MATERIAL ENCLOSED."

or, as to each of the foregoing, at such other address as will be designated by
written notice to the other parties. Any such demand, notice or communication
hereunder will be deemed to have been received on the date delivered to or
received at the premises of the addressee as evidenced by the date noted on the
return receipt.

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

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

               In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a
result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it will be impractical to
mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given
pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such
notice as will be satisfactory to the Trustee will be deemed to be a sufficient
giving of such notice.

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

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

               The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties
on any person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein
unless expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this
Indenture, whether or not physically contained herein.

in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer will bind its successors and
assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this
Indenture will bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this
Indenture will bind its successors.

               SECTION 11.10 Separability. In case any provision in this
Indenture or in the Notes will be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in
any way be affected or impaired thereby.

               SECTION 11.11 Benefits of Indenture. The Insurer and its
successors and assigns will be a third-party beneficiary to the provisions of
this Indenture, and will be entitled to rely upon and directly to enforce such
provisions of this Indenture so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, will
give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors
hereunder, the Insurer, and the Noteholders, and any other party secured
hereunder, and any other person with an ownership interest in any part of the
Trust Estate, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
this Indenture. The Insurer may disclaim any of its rights and powers under this
Indenture (in which case the Trustee may exercise such right or power
hereunder), but not its duties and obligations under the Note Policy, upon
delivery of a written notice to the Trustee.

               In exercising any of its voting rights, rights to direct or
consent or any other rights as the Insurer under this Indenture or any other
Basic Document, subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture, the
Insurer will not have any obligation or duty to any Person to consider or take
into account the interests of any Person and will not be liable to any Person
for any action taken by it or at its discretion or any failure by it to act or
to direct that any action be taken, without regard to whether such inaction or
action benefits or adversely affects any Noteholder, the Issuer or any other
Person.

               Without limiting the generality of this Section 11.11, the
Insurer, so long as it is the Controlling Party, will be entitled to instruct
the Trustee, by delivery of a written direction in the form of a Removal
Direction (as defined in Section 1.3 of the Intercreditor Agreement), to remove
the Servicer in accordance with such direction if the Insurer has terminated the
Servicer

                                       60
<PAGE>

pursuant to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and the Trustee will,
upon receipt of such Removal Direction from the Insurer, act in accordance with
the instructions of the Insurer and in accordance with the procedures as set
forth in Section 1.3 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

               SECTION 11.12 Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on which
any payment is due will not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other
provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and
effect as if made on the date an which nominally due, and no interest will
accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

               SECTION 11.13 GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE WILL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS
CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER WILL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

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

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

               SECTION 11.16 Trust Obligation. No recourse may be taken,
directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the
Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Trustee on
the Notes or under this Indenture, any other Basic Document or any certificate
or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the
Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Owner Trustee
(including in its individual capacity), (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest
in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer,

being understood that the Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Owner Trustee
have no such obligations in their individual capacity) and except that any such
partner, owner or beneficiary will be fully liable, to the extent provided by
applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital
contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For
all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations
of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee will be subject to, and entitled to
the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Article VI, VII and VIII of the
Trust Agreement.

obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee will be subject to, and

                                [REVERSE OF NOTE]

               This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the
Issuer, designated as its Class A-1 1.72313% Asset Backed Notes (herein called
the "Class A-1 Notes"), all issued under an Indenture dated as of August 1, 2002
(such indenture, as supplemented or amended, is herein called the "Indenture"),
between the Issuer and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as trustee (the "Trustee," which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture) to which the Indenture
and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement
of the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the
Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as
supplemented or amended, will have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant
to the Indenture, as so supplemented or amended.

               The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes,
the Class A-4 Notes and the Class B Notes (together, the "Notes") are and will
be secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.

               Principal of the Class A-1 Notes will be payable on each
Distribution Date in an amount described on the face hereof. "Distribution Date"
means the 12th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day,
the next succeeding Business Day, commencing September 12, 2002. The term
"Distribution Date," will be deemed to include the Final Scheduled Distribution
Date.

               As described above, the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note will be due and payable on the earlier of the Final Scheduled Distribution
Date and the Redemption Date, if any, pursuant to the Indenture. As described
above, a portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be due and
payable on the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid
principal amount of the Notes will be due and payable (i) on the date on which
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Insurer has declared
the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in the
Indenture so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, at the
direction of the Insurer or (ii) if an Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, on the date on which an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the Trustee or the Majority Noteholders have declared the Notes
to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in the Indenture. All
principal payments on the Class A-1 Notes will be made pro rata to the Class A-1
Noteholders entitled thereto.

Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each Distribution Date,
together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full
payment of this Note, will be made by check mailed to the Person whose name
appears as the Holder of this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) on the
Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date, except that with
respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the
Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be
made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated
by such nominee. Such checks will be mailed to the Person entitled thereto at
the address of such Person as it appears on the Note Register as of the
applicable Record Date without requiring that this Note be submitted for
notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any
one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Distribution
Date will be binding

<PAGE>

upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the
Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of
this Note on a Distribution Date, then the Trustee, in the name of and on behalf
of the Issuer, will notify the Person who was the Holder hereof as of the Record
Date preceding such Distribution Date by notice mailed prior to such
Distribution Date and the amount then due and payable will be payable only upon
presentation and surrender of this Note at the Trustee's principal Corporate
Trust Office or at the office of the Trustee's agent appointed for such purposes
located in New York, New York.

               The Issuer will pay interest on overdue installments of interest
at the Class A-1 Interest Rate to the extent lawful.

               As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note
Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office
or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, (i) duly endorsed
by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar which requirements
include membership or participation in Securities Transfer Agents Medallion
Program ("STAMP") or such other "signature guarantee program" as may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP,
all in accordance with the Exchange Act, and (ii) accompanied by such other
documents as the Trustee may require, and thereupon one or more new Notes of
authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be
charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the
transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.

               Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the
case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note covenants and agrees (i)
that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Trustee on the Notes or
under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection
therewith, against (a) the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner
Trustee in its individual capacity, (b) any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuer or (c) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or
employee of the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the
Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or the Trustee or of any successor or
assign of the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it
being understood that the Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations
in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner, owner or
beneficiary will be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for
any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to
pay any installment or call owing to such entity, and (ii) to treat the Notes as
indebtedness for purposes of federal income, state and local income and
franchise and any other income taxes.

<PAGE>

               Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this
Note, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Insurer and any agent of the Issuer, the
Trustee or the Insurer may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the
day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the
Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not
this Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Insurer nor any
such agent will be affected by notice to the contrary.

               The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the
Indenture at any time by the Issuer with the consent of the Insurer and of the
Majority Noteholders. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the
Noteholders representing specified percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the
Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under
the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder
of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) will be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any
Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this
Note. The Indenture also permits the Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the
Notes issued thereunder.

               The term "Issuer" as used in this Note includes any successor to
the Issuer under the Indenture.

               The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain
circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Trustee and
the Noteholders under the Indenture.

               The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations
as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

               This Note and the Indenture will be construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder
and thereunder will be determined in accordance with such laws.

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

               Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as
expressly provided in the Indenture or the Basic Documents, neither Wilmington
Trust Company in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuer, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents,
officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns will be personally

                                [REVERSE OF NOTE]

               This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the
Issuer, designated as its Class A-2 1.99% Asset Backed Notes (herein called the
"Class A-2 Notes"), all issued under an Indenture dated as of August 1, 2002
(such indenture, as supplemented or amended, is herein called the "Indenture"),
between the Issuer and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as trustee (the "Trustee," which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture) to which the Indenture
and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement
of the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the
Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as
supplemented or amended, will have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant
to the Indenture, as so supplemented or amended.

               The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes,
the Class A-4 Notes and the Class B Notes (together, the "Notes") are and will
be secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.

               Principal of the Class A-2 Notes will be payable on each
Distribution Date in an amount described on the face hereof. "Distribution Date"
means the 12th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day,
the next succeeding Business Day, commencing September 12, 2002. The term
"Distribution Date," will be deemed to include the Final Scheduled Distribution
Date.

               As described above, the entire unpaid principal amount of this
Note will be due and payable on the earlier of the Final Scheduled Distribution
Date and the Redemption Date, if any, pursuant to the Indenture. As described
above, a portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be due and
payable on the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid
principal amount of the Notes will be due and payable (i) on the date on which
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Insurer has declared
the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in the
Indenture so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii)
if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, on the date on which an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee or the holders
have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided
in the Indenture. All principal payments on the Class A-2 Notes will be made pro
rata to the Class A-2 Noteholders entitled thereto.

               Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Distribution Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the
extent not in full payment of this Note, will be made by check mailed to the
Person whose name appears as the Holder of this Note (or one or more Predecessor
Notes) on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date,
except that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of
the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.),
payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the
account designated by such nominee. Such checks will be mailed to the Person
entitled thereto at the address of such Person as it appears on the Note
Register as of the applicable Record Date without requiring that this Note be
submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this
Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any
Distribution Date will be binding

<PAGE>

upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the
Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of
this Note on a Distribution Date, then the Trustee, in the name of and on behalf
of the Issuer, will notify the Person who was the Holder hereof as of the Record
Date preceding such Distribution Date by notice mailed prior to such
Distribution Date and the amount then due and payable will be payable only upon
presentation and surrender of this Note at the Trustee's principal Corporate
Trust Office or at the office of the Trustee's agent appointed for such purposes
located in New York, New York.

               The Issuer will pay interest on overdue installments of interest
at the Class A-2 Interest Rate to the extent lawful.

               As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note
Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office
or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, (i) duly endorsed
by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized
in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor
institution" meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar which requirements
include membership or participation in Securities Transfer Agents Medallion
Program ("STAMP") or such other "signature guarantee program" as may be
determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP,
all in accordance with the Exchange Act, and (ii) accompanied by such other
documents as the Trustee may require, and thereupon one or more new Notes of
authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be
charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the
transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.

               Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the
case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note covenants and agrees (i)
that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Trustee on the Notes or
under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection
therewith, against (a) the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner
Trustee in its individual capacity, (b) any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuer or (c) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or
employee of the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the
Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or the Trustee or of any successor or
assign of the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it
being understood that the Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations
in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner, owner or
beneficiary will be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for
any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to
pay any installment or call owing to such entity, and (ii) to treat the Notes as
indebtedness for purposes of federal income, state and local income and
franchise and any other income taxes.

Note, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Insurer and any agent of the Issuer, the

day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the
Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not
this Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Insurer nor any
such agent will be affected by notice to the contrary.

               The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the
Indenture at any time by the Issuer with the consent of the Insurer and of the
Majority Noteholders. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the
Noteholders representing specified percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the
Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the
Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under
the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder
of this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) will be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any
Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this
Note. The Indenture also permits the Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the
Notes issued thereunder.

               The term "Issuer" as used in this Note includes any successor to
the Issuer under the Indenture.

               The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain
circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Trustee and
the Noteholders under the Indenture.

               The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations
as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

               This Note and the Indenture will be construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder
and thereunder will be determined in accordance with such laws.

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

               Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as
expressly provided in the Indenture or the Basic Documents, neither Wilmington
Trust Company in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuer, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents,
officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns will be personally
liable for, nor will recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of
principal of or interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of
the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note or the
Indenture, it being expressly understood that said covenants,

                                     A-2-6

obligations and indemnifications have been made for the sole purposes of binding
the assets of the Issuer. The Holder of this Note by the acceptance hereof
agrees that except as expressly provided in the Indenture or the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder
will have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein will be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for
any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture
or in this Note.

Note will be due and payable on the earlier of the Final Scheduled Distribution
Date and the Redemption Date, if any, pursuant to the Indenture. As described
above, a portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be due and

extent not in full payment of this Note, will be made by check mailed to the
Person whose name appears as the Holder of this Note (or one or more Predecessor
Notes) on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date,
except that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of
the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.),
payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the
account designated by such nominee. Such checks will be mailed to the Person
entitled thereto at the address of such Person as it appears on the Note

upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether

amount of this Note, the records of the Trustee will be determinative. If funds
are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full
of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Distribution
Date, then the Trustee, in the name of and on behalf of the Issuer, will notify
the Person who was the Holder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such

documents as the Trustee may require, and thereupon one or more new Notes of
authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be
charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the
transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.

case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note covenants and agrees (i)
that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the

                                [REVERSE OF NOTE]

            This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer,
designated as its Class B 8.00% Asset Backed Notes (herein called the "Class B
Notes"), all issued under an Indenture dated as of August 1, 2002 (such
indenture, as supplemented or amended, is herein called the "Indenture"),
between the Issuer and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as trustee (the "Trustee," which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture) to which the Indenture
and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement
of the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee
and the Holders of the Notes. The Notes are subject to all terms of the
Indenture. All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture, as
supplemented or amended, will have the meanings assigned to them in or pursuant
to the Indenture, as so supplemented or amended.

            The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the
Class A-4 Notes and the Class B Notes (together, the "Notes") are and will be
secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.

            Principal of the Class B Notes will be payable on each Distribution
Date in an amount described on the face hereof. "Distribution Date" means the
12th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day, commencing September 12, 2002. The term "Distribution
Date," will be deemed to include the Final Scheduled Distribution Date.

            As described above, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note
will be due and payable on the earlier of the Final Scheduled Distribution Date
and the Redemption Date, if any, pursuant to the Indenture. As described above,
a portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be due and payable
on the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid
principal amount of the Notes will be due and payable (i) on the date on which
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Insurer has declared
the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in the
Indenture so long as no Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii)
if an Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, on the date on which an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee or the Majority
Noteholders have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the
manner provided in the Indenture. All principal payments on the Class B Notes
will be made pro rata to the Class B Noteholders entitled thereto.

            Payments of interest on this Note due and payable on each
Distribution Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the
extent not in full payment of this Note, will be made by check mailed to the
Person whose name appears as the Holder of this Note (or one or more Predecessor
Notes) on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date,
except that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of
the nominee of the Clearing Agency, payments will be made by wire transfer in
immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. Such
checks will be mailed to the Person entitled thereto at the address of such
Person as it appears on the Note Register as of the applicable Record Date
without requiring that this Note be submitted for notation of payment. Any
reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor
Notes) effected by any payments made on any Distribution Date will be binding
upon all future Holders of this

<PAGE>

Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are
expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of
the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Distribution Date,
then the Trustee, in the name of and on behalf of the Issuer, will notify the
Person who was the Holder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such
Distribution Date by notice mailed prior to such Distribution Date and the
amount then due and payable will be payable only upon presentation and surrender
of this Note at the Trustee's principal Corporate Trust Office or at the office
of the Trustee's agent appointed for such purposes located in New York, New
York.

            The Issuer will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at
the Class B Interest Rate to the extent lawful.

            As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set
forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register
upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency
designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, (i) duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, with such signature guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor institution"
meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar which requirements include
membership or participation in Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program
("STAMP") or such other "signature guarantee program" as may be determined by
the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in
accordance with the Exchange Act, and (ii) accompanied by such other documents
as the Trustee may require, and thereupon one or more new Notes of authorized
denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any
registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be
required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
that may be imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer or
exchange.

            Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the
case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note covenants and agrees (i)
that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Trustee on the Notes or
under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection
therewith, against (a) the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner
Trustee in its individual capacity, (b) any owner of a beneficial interest in
the Issuer or (c) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or
employee of the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the
Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or the Trustee or of any successor or
assign of the Seller, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its
individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it
being understood that the Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations
in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner, owner or
beneficiary will be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for
any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to
pay any installment or call owing to such entity, and (ii) to treat the Notes as
indebtedness for purposes of federal income, state and local income and
franchise and any other income taxes.

Note, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Insurer and any agent of the Issuer, the

day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the
Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not

the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Issuer with the consent of the Insurer and of the Majority

representing specified percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, on
behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Issuer with
certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Note (or any one of more Predecessor Notes) will be conclusive and binding
upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The
Indenture also permits the Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the
Notes issued thereunder.

            The term "Issuer" as used in this Note includes any successor to the
Issuer under the Indenture.

            The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain
circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Trustee and
the Noteholders under the Indenture.

            The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as
provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

            This Note and the Indenture will be construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law
provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder
and thereunder will be determined in accordance with such laws.

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

            Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly
provided in the Indenture or the Basic Documents, neither Wilmington Trust
Company in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the
Issuer, nor any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers,
directors, employees or successors or assigns will be personally liable for, nor
will recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest
on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations
or indemnifications contained in this Note or the Indenture, it being expressly
understood that said covenants,

                                      B-6
<PAGE>

obligations and indemnifications have been made for the sole purposes of binding
the assets of the Issuer. The Holder of this Note by the acceptance hereof
agrees that except as expressly provided in the Indenture or the Basic
Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Holder
will have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or
claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein will be taken
to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for
any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture
or in this Note.
