     This SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated as of June 29, 2011 (this “Agreement” or “Servicing Agreement”), by and between GE EQUIPMENT TRANSPORTATION LLC, SERIES 2011-1, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Issuer”), and GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION (“GE Capital”), in its capacity as the servicer hereunder (the “Servicer”).

     In consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

     Section 1.1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 1 of Annex A to this Agreement.

     Section 1.2. Other Interpretive Matters. For purposes of this Agreement, the other interpretive matters set forth in Section 2 of Annex A shall govern. All exhibits, schedules, and other attachments hereto, or expressly identified hereto are incorporated herein by reference and, taken together with this Agreement, shall constitute but a single agreement.

ARTICLE II

APPOINTMENT OF THE SERVICER; CERTAIN DUTIES
AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SERVICER.

     Section 2.1. Appointment of the Servicer. The Issuer hereby appoints the Servicer as its agent to service the Loans and enforce its rights and interests in and under the Loans and to serve in such capacity until the termination of its responsibilities pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 6.1. In connection therewith, the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations set forth herein. The Servicer may, upon giving prior written notice to the Issuer, delegate any duties to any Person, or subcontract with a Sub-Servicer, for the collection, servicing or administration of the Loans; provided, that (a) the Servicer shall remain liable for the performance of the duties and obligations of any delegate or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof and (b) any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or services relating to the Loans involving a Sub-Servicer shall be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone, and the Issuer shall not be deemed party thereto and shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such Sub-Servicer.

     Section 2.2. Duties and Responsibilities of the Servicer. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer shall conduct the servicing, administration and collection of the Loans and shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions that (a) may be necessary or advisable to service, administer and collect the Loans from time to time, (b) the Servicer would take if the Loans were

700148759 06142559		Servicing Agreement

owned by the Servicer, and (c) are consistent with the Credit and Collection Policies. The Servicer shall also perform on behalf of, and as directed by, the Issuer all of the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture other than any obligations to pay money and any obligations to be performed by the Administrator under the Administration Agreement.

     Section 2.3. Unrelated Amounts. If the Servicer determines that amounts which are not property of the Issuer (the “Unrelated Amounts”) have been deposited in the Collection Account, then the Servicer shall provide written evidence thereof to the Issuer no later than the first Business Day following the day on which the Servicer had actual knowledge thereof. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Servicer shall withdraw the Unrelated Amounts from the Collection Account, and the same shall not be treated as Available Amounts on Loans and shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12.

     Section 2.4. Authorization of the Servicer. The Servicer is hereby authorized to take any and all reasonable steps necessary or desirable and consistent with the ownership of the Loans by the Issuer and pledge of the Loans to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture, in the determination of the Servicer, to (a) collect all amounts due under the Loans, including endorsing its name on checks and other instruments representing Available Amounts on the Loans, executing and delivering any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments with respect to the Loans, and consistent with its normal procedures, arranging with the Obligor to extend or modify Scheduled Payments in its discretion, and (b) after the Loans become delinquent and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with applicable law and regulations, (i) commence proceedings with respect to the enforcement of payment of the Loans, (ii) adjust, settle or compromise any payments due thereunder and (iii) initiate proceedings against any Collateral securing the obligations due under the Loans, in each case, consistent with the Credit and Collection Policies; provided, that, with respect to clause (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not agree to any modification of the APR on any Loan or of the amount of any Scheduled Payment on a Loan if such modification has a Material Adverse Effect on the Noteholders; and provided, further, that in no event will such modification be permitted to extend the final payment date beyond the Final Maturity Date.

     If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Loan, the Issuer (in the case of a Loan other than a Purchased Loan) shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Loan to the Servicer. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Loan on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Loan, the Managing Member shall take steps to enforce such Loan, including bringing suit in its name.

     The Issuer shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Issuer shall assist the Servicer to the fullest extent to enable the Servicer to collect the Loans and otherwise discharge its duties hereunder. In no event shall the Servicer be entitled to make the Issuer a party to any litigation without the Issuer’s express prior written consent.

700148759 06142559		Servicing Agreement

     Section 2.5. Servicing Fee and Servicing Advance. (a) As compensation for its servicing activities and as reimbursement for its reasonable expenses in connection therewith, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee for each Collection Period. The Servicer shall be required to pay for all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder (including any payments to accountants, counsel or any other Person) and shall not be entitled to any payment therefor other than the Servicing Fee. The Servicer shall also be entitled to reimbursement for any outstanding Servicing Advance owing to the Servicer with respect to all preceding Collection Periods.

     (b) The Servicer may, but shall have no obligation to, make a Servicing Advance in the manner and to the extent provided herein, but only to the extent the Servicer, in its sole discretion, expects to be reimbursed for such Servicing Advance. If the Servicer elects to make a Servicing Advance, prior to the close of business on each Determination Date, the Servicer will determine the amount of the Servicing Advance that it has elected to make on the related Transfer Date. The Servicer shall include information as to such determination in the Servicer’s Certificate furnished by it in accordance with Section 2.7 and shall be obligated to transfer to the Collection Account on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the related Transfer Date in next day funds the amounts applicable to such determinations appearing in such Servicer’s Certificate. All Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable to the Servicer, without interest, when a payment relating to a Loan with respect to which a Servicing Advance has previously been made is subsequently received. Upon the determination by the Servicer that reimbursement from the preceding source is unlikely or nonrecoverable, it will be entitled to recover unreimbursed Servicing Advances from Available Amounts on or in respect of other Loans.

     Section 2.6. Covenants of the Servicer. The Servicer covenants and agrees that from and after the Closing Date and until the earlier of the Final Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as applicable:

     (a) Ownership of Loans. The Servicer shall identify the Loans clearly and unambiguously in its Servicing Records to reflect that the Loans are owned by the Issuer and have been pledged to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.

     (b) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policies; Law. The Servicer shall comply in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policies with respect to the Loans and in all material respects with applicable law with respect to the Loans, unless, in either case, such failure to comply would not be reasonably expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect on the Servicer or the Issuer.

     Section 2.7. Servicer’s Certificate. On each Determination Date the Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee, the Seller and the Rating Agencies, a Servicer’s Certificate containing all information necessary to make the distributions pursuant to Section 2.14 and the deposits to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 2.12 and the deposits to, or withdrawals from, the Reserve Account pursuant to Section 2.13, for the Collection Period preceding the date of such Servicer’s Certificate. Loans to be repurchased by the Seller shall be

700148759 06142559		Servicing Agreement

identified by the Servicer by account number with respect to such Loan (as specified in the Schedule of Loans delivered on the Closing Date).

     Section 2.8. Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Default. (a) The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee, on or before March 15 after the end of each calendar year of the Issuer (commencing with the calendar year 2012), an Officers’ Certificate stating that: (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding twelve (12)-month period (or, in the case of the first such certificate, from the Cut-off Date to December 31, 2011) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, such Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

     (b) The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officers’ Certificate of any event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default under Section 5.1.

     Section 2.9. Annual Reports on Assessment of Compliance with Servicing Criteria. On or before March 15 of each calendar year of the Issuer (commencing with the calendar year 2012) each Reporting Servicer shall furnish, and shall cause each Servicing Function Participant with which it has entered into a servicing relationship with respect to the Loans to furnish, to the Issuer, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee, a report on assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria that contains (A) a statement by such Reporting Servicer of its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Servicing Criteria applicable to it, (B) a statement that such Reporting Servicer used the Servicing Criteria to assess compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria, (C) such Reporting Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for the period ending December 31, including, if there has been any material instance of noncompliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the nature and status thereof, and (D) a statement that a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such Reporting Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for such period; 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 Securities Exchange Act and shall be provided as an exhibit to such Reporting Servicer’s report on assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria.

     Section 2.10. Appointment of Subservicer. The Servicer may at any time appoint a subservicer to perform all or any portion of its obligations as Servicer hereunder; provided, that the Servicer shall remain obligated and be liable to the Issuer, for the servicing and administering of the Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof, without diminution of such obligations and liabilities by virtue of the appointment of any subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer itself were servicing and administering the Loans. The fees and expenses of any subservicer shall be as agreed between the Servicer and its subservicer from time to time and the Issuer shall not have any responsibility therefor.

700148759 06142559		Servicing Agreement

     Section 2.11. Maintenance of Security Interests in Loans. The Servicer shall, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policies, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Loan in any of the Equipment. The Issuer hereby authorizes the Servicer to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer or its assigns for any reason, including the filing of UCC financing statements and any amendments thereto without the related debtor’s signature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall make or maintain all required federal lien filings or registrations in the name of the Issuer, as applicable. Upon discovery by the Issuer or the Servicer of a breach of its obligation to maintain perfection of the security interest in each Loan pursuant to this Section 2.11, which breach is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Issuer, the party discovering the same shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party hereto. As liquidated damages for such breach, the Issuer shall, on the Transfer Date relating to the Collection Period during which the breach is discovered, request the Servicer to, and the Servicer shall pay to, or at the direction of, the Issuer the Purchase Amount for the applicable Loans (measured at the end of the Collection Period during which such breach is discovered). Upon such payment, all rights, title and interest of the Issuer in and to such Loans will be deemed to be automatically released without the necessity of any further action by the Issuer, the Servicer or any other party and such Loans will become the property of the Servicer.

     Section 2.12. Accounts. As of the Closing Date, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the Issuer and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the Collection Account and the Reserve Account, each of which shall be an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of the Issuer.

     (a) Not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Transfer Date, the Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account all Available Amounts with respect to the related Collection Period that have not previously been deposited into the Collection Account (it being understood that no such deposits are required to be made prior to the Transfer Date unless a Daily Deposit Event has occurred).

     (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Daily Deposit Event, the Servicer shall transfer to the Collection Account, on each Business Day in same day funds, all Available Amounts then held or thereafter received by it that are required to be deposited into the Collection Account, within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof.

     Section 2.13. Reserve Account. The Servicer shall determine the amounts for deposit into or for withdrawal from the Reserve Account on each Transfer Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.4 of the Indenture.

     Section 2.14. Disbursement from the Collection Account. On each Transfer Date, the Servicer, on behalf of the Issuer, shall withdraw from the Collection Account for payment to itself an amount equal to any accrued but unpaid Servicing Fee and any accrued but unpaid Servicing Advance owing to the Servicer (based on the information contained in the Servicer’s Certificate delivered on the related Determination Date pursuant to Section 2.7) in accordance with Section 2.5.

700148759 06142559		Servicing Agreement

     Section 2.15. Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others. Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Issuer or the Noteholders, except as provided under this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such Person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.

     Except as provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its duties to service the Loans in accordance with this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement, the Related Documents and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement, the other Related Documents and the interests of the Noteholders under the Indenture.

     (b) The Servicer may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it upon its determination that (i) the performance of its duties hereunder has become impermissible under applicable law, and (ii) there is no reasonable action which the Servicer could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under applicable law.

     (b) the Servicer shall terminate each Sub-Servicing Agreement that may have been entered into by it and the Successor Servicer shall not be deemed to have assumed any of such outgoing servicer’s interest therein or to have replaced such outgoing servicer as a party to any such Sub-Servicing Agreement.

     Section 6.4. Effect of Termination or Resignation.
