Owner Trustee are required to take pursuant to the Related Documents. In
furtherance thereof, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Administrator
and to each successor Administrator appointed pursuant to the terms hereof, one
or more powers of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto,
appointing the Administrator the attorney-in-fact of the Issuer for the purpose
of executing on behalf of the Issuer all such documents, reports, filings,
instruments, certificates and opinions. Subject to Section 1.06, and in
accordance with the directions of the Owner Trustee, the Administrator shall
administer, perform or supervise the performance of such other activities in
connection with the Collateral (including the Related Documents) as are not
covered by any of the foregoing provisions and as are expressly requested by the
Owner Trustee and are reasonably within the capability of the Administrator.

specify the amount of any withholding tax required to be withheld by the Owner
Trustee pursuant to such provision.

to the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible for performance of the

with respect to, among other things, accounting and reports to Owners; provided,
however, that the Owner Trustee shall retain responsibility for the distribution
of the Schedule K-1's, necessary to enable each Owner to prepare its federal and
state income tax returns; provided further, that such Schedule K-1's have been
prepared by the Administrator and delivered to the Owner Trustee.

      (f)   The Administrator shall perform any duties expressly required to be
performed by the Administrator under the Trust Agreement or the Indenture.


                                        6



      (g)   In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other obligations
under this Agreement, the Administrator may enter into transactions or otherwise
deal with any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any such
transactions or dealings shall be in accordance with any directions received
from the Issuer and shall be, in the Administrator's opinion, no less favorable
to the Issuer than would be available from unaffiliated parties.

      (h)   With respect to matters that in the reasonable judgment of the
Administrator are non-ministerial, the Administrator shall not take any action
unless within a reasonable time before the taking of such action, the
Administrator shall have notified the Owner Trustee of the proposed action and
the Owner Trustee shall not have withheld consent or provided an alternative
direction. For the purpose of the preceding sentence, "non-ministerial matters"
shall include:

            (i)     the amendment of or any supplement to the Indenture;

            (ii)    the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by the Issuer and the

      Documents;

            (iv)    the appointment of successor Note Registrars, successor
      Paying Agents and successor Indenture Trustees pursuant to the Indenture
      or the appointment of successor Administrators or successor Servicers, or
      the consent to the assignment by the Note Registrar, any Paying Agent or
      Indenture Trustee of its obligations under the Indenture; and

            (v)     the removal of the Indenture Trustee.

      (i)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Administrator shall not be obligated to, and shall not, (i) make any payments to
the Noteholders under the Related Documents, (ii) sell the Owner Trust Estate
pursuant to Section 5.04 of the Indenture, (iii) take any other action that the
Issuer directs the Administrator not to take on its behalf or (iv) take any
other action which may be construed as having the effect of varying the
investment of the Trust Certificateholders.

      Section 1.03   Records. The Administrator shall maintain appropriate books
of account and records relating to services performed hereunder, which books of
account and records shall be accessible for inspection by the Issuer and the
Depositor at any time during normal business hours.

      Section 1.04   Compensation. As compensation for the performance of the
Administrator's obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its
expenses related thereto, the Administrator shall be entitled to an annual

subject to the supervision of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee with respect to
the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations
hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer, the Administrator shall
have no authority to act for or represent the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in any
way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee.

      Section 1.07   No Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement (i)
shall constitute the Administrator and either the Issuer or the Owner Trustee as
members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate,
unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) shall be construed to
impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) shall be deemed to confer
on any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any
obligation or liability on behalf of the others.

      Section 1.08   Other Activities of Administrator. Nothing herein shall
prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses
or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an
administrator for any other Person or entity, even though such person or entity
may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

Administrator. This Agreement shall continue in force until the dissolution of
the Issuer, upon which event this Agreement shall automatically terminate.

      reporting obligation under the Exchange Act with respect to any class of
      asset-backed securities, the Administrator shall (i) notify the Issuer in
      writing of any material litigation or governmental proceedings pending
      against the Administrator and (ii) provide to the Issuer a description of
      such proceedings.

            (ii) As a condition to the succession to Administrator as
      administrator by any Person as permitted by Section 1.09 hereof the
      Administrator shall provide to the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer,
      at least 10 Business Days prior to the effective date of such succession
      or appointment, (x) written notice to the Administrator, on behalf of the
      Issuer, of such succession or appointment and (y) in writing all
      information in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item
      6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to any class of asset-backed securities.

            (iii) In addition to such information as the Administrator, as
      administrator, is obligated to provide pursuant to other provisions of
      this Agreement, if so requested by the Issuer, the Administrator shall
      provide such information regarding the performance or servicing of the
      Receivables as is reasonably required to facilitate preparation of
      distribution reports in accordance with Item 1121 of Regulation AB.

(b)   Administrator Compliance Statement. On or before June 1st of each calendar
year, commencing in 2007, the Administrator shall deliver to the Issuer a
statement of compliance addressed to the Issuer and signed by an authorized
officer of the Administrator to the effect that (i) a review of the
Administrator's activities during the immediately preceding reporting year (or
applicable portion thereof) and of its performance under this Agreement during
such period has been made under such officer's supervision, and (ii) to the best
of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Administrator has
fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects
throughout such reporting year (or applicable portion thereof) or, if there has
been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect,
specifically identifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature
and the status thereof. If the Administrator is the same party as the Servicer,
such party's compliance with Section 3.11(a) of


                                       12



the Sale and Servicing Agreement will satisfy the Administrator's obligations
set forth in this Section 1.21(b).

      (c)   Report on Assessment of Compliance and Attestation

            On or before 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, commencing
      with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, the Administrator shall:

            (i)     deliver to the Issuer a report (in form and substance
      reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer) regarding the Administrator's
      assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the
      immediately preceding reporting year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and
      15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report
      shall be addressed to the Issuer and signed by an authorized officer of
      the Administrator, and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria
      specified on a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto
      delivered to the Issuer concurrently with the execution of this Agreement;

            (ii)    deliver to the Issuer a report of a registered public
      accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Issuer that attests to, and
      reports on, the assessment of compliance made by the Administrator and
      delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph. Such attestation shall be
      in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under
      the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

            (iii)   if requested by the Issuer not later than May 1 of the
      calendar year in which such certification is to be delivered, deliver to
      the Issuer and any other Person that will be responsible for signing the
      certification a Sarbanes Certification on behalf of an asset-backed issuer
      with respect to a securitization transaction a certification in the form
      attached hereto as Exhibit B.

The Administrator acknowledges that the parties identified in clause (a)(iii)
above may rely on the certification provided by the Administrator pursuant to
such clause in signing a Sarbanes Certification and filing such with the
Commission. The Issuer will not request delivery of a certification under clause
(a)(iii) above unless the Depositor is required under the Exchange Act to file
an annual report on Form 10-K with respect to an issuing entity whose asset pool
includes the Receivables.

If the Administrator is the same party as the Servicer, such party's compliance
with Section 3.12 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement will satisfy the
Administrator's obligations set forth in this Section 1.21(c).

      (d)   Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness. The Issuer and the
Administrator acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Section 1.21 of this
Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Issuer with the provisions of
Regulation AB and related rules and regulations of the Commission.


                                       13



      Neither the Issuer nor the Administrator shall exercise its right to
request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions
other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder (or the provision in a private offering of disclosure comparable to
that required under the Securities Act). The Administrator acknowledges that
interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time,
whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff,
consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of
counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Indenture
Trustee, the Servicer or any other party to the Transaction Documents in good
faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of
evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection therewith, the
Administrator shall cooperate fully with the Administrator, on behalf of the
Issuer to deliver to the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer (including any
of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications,
records and any other information necessary in the good faith determination of
the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, to permit the Administrator, on
behalf of the Issuer, to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB.

      The Issuer (including any of its assignees or designees) shall cooperate
with the Administrator by providing timely notice of requests for information
under these provisions and by reasonably limiting such requests to information
required, in the Administrator's, on behalf of the Issuer, reasonable judgment,
to comply with Regulation AB.


                                       14
