No Certificate shall entitle its holder to any benefit under this Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or ____________________, by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

No Person shall become a Certificateholder until it shall establish its non-foreign status by submitting to the Certificate Paying Agent an IRS Form W-9 and the Certificate of Non-Foreign Status set forth in Exhibit C hereto.

No transfer of a Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor shall prior to such transfer require the transferee to execute (i) (a) an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor certifying to the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor that such transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” under Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or (b) solely with respect to the Designated Certificate, an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E), acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, which investment letters shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer or the Depositor and (ii) the Certificate of Non-Foreign Status (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, which certificate shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor. The Holder of a Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of a Certificate shall be made unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received either (i) a representation letter from the proposed transferee of such Certificate to the effect that such proposed transferee is not an employee benefit plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code, or a Person acting on behalf of any such plan or using the assets of any such plan, which representation letter shall not be an expense of the Trust, Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer or the Depositor or (ii) in the case of any such certificate presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a trustee of any such plan, or any other Person who is using the assets of any such plan to effect such acquisition, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and addressed and delivered to, the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Certificate will not result in the assets of the Owner Trust Estate being deemed to be “plan assets” and subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or the prohibited transaction provisions of the Code, will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 or Section 407 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and will not subject the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in

7

addition to those explicitly undertaken in this Trust Agreement which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or Depositor.

Section 3.06.Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice to the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee or ________________, as the Trust’s authenticating agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.06, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 3.07.Persons Deemed Certificateholders. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Certificate Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Section 3.08.Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, a list, in such form as the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Trust, the Depositor, the Holder of the Designated Certificate, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

Section 3.09.Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust, shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee in respect of the Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Owner Trustee initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Owner Trustee as its office for such purposes. The Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Holder of the Designated Certificate and the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

8

Section 3.10.Certificate Paying Agent. (a) The Certificate Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the provisions of the Certificates and Section 5.01 hereof from payments remitted to the Certificate Paying Agent by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture.

(c)The Trust may revoke such power and remove the Certificate Paying Agent if the Administrator determines in its sole discretion that the Certificate Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Trust Agreement in any material respect. __________________ shall be permitted to resign as Certificate Paying Agent upon 30 days written notice to the Owner Trustee; provided ________________ is also resigning as Paying Agent under the Indenture at such time. In the event that ___________________ shall no longer be the Certificate Paying Agent under this Trust Agreement and Paying Agent under the

9

Indenture, the Administrator shall appoint a successor to act as Certificate Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company) and which shall also be the successor Paying Agent under the Indenture. The Administrator shall cause such successor Certificate Paying Agent or any additional Certificate Paying Agent appointed by the Administrator to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument to the effect set forth in this Section 3.10 as it relates to the Certificate Paying Agent. The Certificate Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Trust and upon removal of a Certificate Paying Agent such Certificate Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Trust. The provisions of Sections 6.01, 6.03, 6.04 and 7.01 shall apply to the Certificate Paying Agent to the extent applicable.

Section 9.05.Appointment of Co-trustee or Separate Trustee.

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

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

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Trust Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be

23

provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Trust Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as 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 Trust Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor co-trustee or separate trustee.
