In furtherance of the foregoing, (i) the purpose of the Trust shall be to protect and conserve the assets of the Trust, and the Trust shall not at any time engage in or carry on any kind of business for U.S. federal income tax purposes or any kind of commercial activity and (ii) the Trust and Owner Trustee (upon direction from the Majority Certificateholders) (and any agent of either person) shall take, or refrain from taking, all such action as is necessary to maintain the status of the Trust as a fixed investment trust described in Treasury Regulation section 301.7701-4(c) that
10

is treated as a grantor trust under subtitle A, chapter 1, subchapter J, part I, subpart E of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, neither the Trust nor the Owner Trustee (nor any agent of either person) shall (1) acquire any assets or dispose of any portion of the Trust other than pursuant to the specific provisions of this Agreement, (2) vary the investment of the Trust within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 301.7701-4(c) or (3) substitute new investments or reinvest so as to enable the Trust to take advantage of variations in the market to improve the investment of any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted consistent with and to further this intention of the parties. The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate taxing authorities or by law, the Trust will not file or cause to be filed annual or other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the characterization of the Trust as an entity separate from its owner.
(c)            Neither the Owner Trustee nor any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner will, under any circumstances, and at any time, make an election on IRS Form 8832 or otherwise, to classify the Trust as an association taxable as a corporation for federal, state or any other applicable tax purpose.
(d)            If, the appropriate taxing authorities determine, contrary to the agreed upon treatment above, that for any taxable period the Trust is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Exeter shall be designated as the Partnership Representative and the Trust will, to the extent practicable, make the election described in Section 6226 of the Code.
(e)            For each taxable year in which the Trust is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, capital accounts shall be maintained by the initial Servicer, or a Person (other than the Owner Trustee or the Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as successor Servicer if so appointed)) designated by the initial Servicer, for each Certificate Owner in accordance with the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code and the capital account balance for each beneficial owner of the Certificates shall be determined by the initial Servicer, or a Person (other than the Owner Trustee or the Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as successor Servicer if so appointed)) designated by the initial Servicer, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All income, gain, deduction, expense, and loss of the Trust shall be allocated solely to (i) the Certificateholders and the Certificate Owners pro rata based upon the applicable nominal principal amount of the interests in the Certificates held by such Certificateholders or beneficially held by such Certificate Owner.
(f)            To the extent required by applicable law, all Certificateholders and Certificate Owners shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Issuer prior to the first Distribution Date and at any time or times required by applicable law, (i) a correct, complete and properly executed IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY (but without any IRS Forms W-8ECI attached) or IRS Form W-8EXP (with appropriate attachments to these forms), or any successor form, as applicable, and (ii) any documentation that is required under FATCA or is otherwise necessary (in the sole determination of the Issuer, Owner Trustee or Certificate Registrar, as applicable) to enable the Issuer, Owner Trustee, Certificate Registrar, and any other agent of the Issuer to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner) has complied
11

with its obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from a payment.
ARTICLE III.

Certificates and Transfer of Interest
SECTION 3.1.      Initial Ownership.
Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.5 and until the issuance of the Certificates to the initial Certificateholders, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust, and upon the issuance of the Certificates, the Depositor will no longer be a beneficiary of the Trust, except to the extent that the Depositor is a Certificateholder or Certificate Owner.
SECTION 3.2.      The Certificates.
The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates. A transferee of any Certificate shall become a Certificateholder, and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of the Certificateholders hereunder, upon due registration of such Certificate in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.7.
SECTION 3.3.      Authentication of Certificates.
(a)            Concurrently with the contribution of the Conveyed Assets (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) by the Trust in exchange for the Holding Trust Certificate pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, at the written direction of the Depositor, one or more Regulation S Certificates that are Book-Entry Certificates (each, a “Regulation S Global Certificate”) shall be executed by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Certificate Registrar in the name of Cede & Co. and (b) one or more 144A Certificates that are Book-Entry Certificates (each, a “Rule 144A Global Certificate”) shall be executed by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Certificate Registrar in the name of Cede & Co. The Certificates shall in the aggregate represent 100% of the Percentage Interest in the Trust.
SECTION 3.4.      Book-Entry Certificates.
(a)            The Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more typewritten Certificates representing Book-Entry Certificates, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, to be delivered to the Certificate Registrar, as agent for the Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Trust. The Book-Entry Certificates shall be issued in an aggregate nominal principal amount of $100,000 (which shall be deemed to be the equivalent of 100,000 units, with
12

$1 of principal amount being the equivalent of 1 unit). The Trust shall not issue any Certificate that would cause the aggregate nominal principal amount of all Certificates (including any Certificates that are issued on or after the Closing Date as Definitive Certificates) to exceed $100,000, or 100,000 units. All beneficial interests in the Certificates shall be owned in the minimum nominal principal amount of $4,546 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. No distributions of moneys to the Certificateholders under the Basic Documents shall be deemed to reduce the nominal principal amount of any Certificate prior to payment in full of all Notes; provided, however, that the final aggregate $100,000 that is allocated to payment of the Certificates pursuant to the Basic Documents upon final distribution of the Owner Trust Estate and termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 8.1 shall be deemed to repay the aggregate nominal principal amount of the Certificates in full; provided, further, that any failure to pay in full the nominal principal amount of a Certificate on such final Distribution Date shall not result in any recourse to, claim against or liability of any Person for such shortfall. Any amounts payable to the Certificateholders on or in respect of the Certificates under the Basic Documents shall be paid and allocated to the various Certificateholders ratably based on their respective Percentage Interests. Each Book-Entry Certificate shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) as the initial Clearing Agency, and no Certificate Owner will receive a Definitive Certificate representing such Certificate Owner’s interest in such Certificate, except as provided in Section 3.6. For so long as any Book-Entry Certificates remain outstanding:
(i)            the provisions of this Section shall be in full force and effect;
(ii)            the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Paying Agent, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Agreement (including the payment of amounts payable under the Basic Documents and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Certificateholders, and shall have no obligation to the Certificate Owners thereof;
(iii)             to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall control;
(iv)            the rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between or among such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants or Persons acting through Clearing Agency Participants. The initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments due under the Basic Documents with regard to the Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants;
(v)            whenever this Agreement requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Certificateholders representing a specified percentage of the Percentage Interest, the Clearing Agency shall deliver instructions to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect (which receipt the Owner Trustee and
13

the Certificate Registrar shall have no duty to verify or confirm) from Certificate Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants or Persons acting through Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Certificates;
(vi)            owners of a beneficial interest in a Book-Entry Certificate will not be entitled to have any portion of a Book-Entry Certificate registered in their names and will not be considered to be the Certificateholders of any Certificates under this Agreement; and
(vii)            payments on a Book-Entry Certificate will be made to the Clearing Agency, or its nominee, as the registered owner thereof, and none of the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Certificate Paying Agent will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Book-Entry Certificate or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to the beneficial ownership interests.
(b)            Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Book-Entry Certificate remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Clearing Agency, transfers of a Book-Entry Certificate, in whole or in part, shall only be made in accordance with Section 3.4(a). Subject to clauses (i)-(iv) of Section 3.4(a), transfers of a Book-Entry Certificate shall be limited to transfers of such Book-Entry Certificate in whole, but not in part, to a nominee of the Clearing Agency or to a successor of the Clearing Agency or such successor’s nominee.
In the event that a Book-Entry Certificate is exchanged for one or more Definitive Certificates pursuant to Section 3.6, such Certificates may be exchanged for one another only in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and with such procedures as may be from time to time adopted by the Trust and the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar.
SECTION 3.5.      Notices to Clearing Agency.
Whenever a notice or other communication to the Book-Entry Certificate Owners is required under this Agreement, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the Certificate Owners to the Clearing Agency and the Depositor.
SECTION 3.6.      Definitive Certificates.
(a)            If (i) the Depositor advises the Certificate Registrar and the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to any Book-Entry Certificates, and the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor at its option advises the Certificate Registrar and the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all effected Certificate Owners, the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon (x) the occurrence of either of the events set forth in the immediately preceding
14

sentence and (y) the surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the typewritten Certificate or Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by re-registration instructions, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Definitive Certificates representing the applicable Certificates in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates representing the Certificates, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Paying Agent and the Indenture Trustee shall recognize such Holders of the Definitive Certificates, as reflected on the Certificate Register, as the applicable Certificateholders.
(b)            If Exeter provides notice to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar in writing that either (i) the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller acquired or is acquiring any Book-Entry Certificates on or after the Closing Date and that such Person has elected to exchange such Book-Entry Certificates for Definitive Certificates or (ii) that the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor is transferring Book-Entry Certificates to a transferee who is required to accept Definitive Certificates pursuant to the applicable terms of Section 3.7(g), such notice shall be provided no later than two (2) Business Days prior to such Person’s exchange or transfer of such Certificates and shall specify (i) the date of such exchange or transfer (the “DWAC Decrease Date”), (ii) the nominal principal amount of the Book-Entry Certificates immediately prior to the DWAC Decrease Date (the “Pre-DWAC Nominal Principal Amount”), (iii) the amount by which the Pre-DWAC Nominal Principal Amount will be decreased in connection with issuance of the corresponding Definitive Certificates (the “DWAC Decrease Amount”), (iv) the nominal principal amount of the Book-Entry Certificates, as decreased by the DWAC Decrease Amount (the “Post-DWAC Nominal Principal Amount”), and (v) the DTC participant number of the transferor.  On the DWAC Decrease Date, the transferor of the Certificates that are the subject of such exchange or transfer will initiate, or cause to be initiated, a DWAC with the Clearing Agency in order to decrease the Pre-DWAC Nominal Principal Amount of the Book-Entry Certificates by the DWAC Decrease Amount.  In connection with such DWAC Decrease Amount, upon confirmation by the Seller that such DWAC has occurred and on the DWAC Decrease Date, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver one or more Definitive Certificates representing the applicable Certificates corresponding with such DWAC Decrease Amount to the Seller or such Affiliate, as applicable, in accordance with the re-registration instructions of the Seller and in accordance with Section 3.7 hereof. None of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of any such Definitive Certificates, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Paying Agent and the Indenture Trustee shall recognize such Holders of the Definitive Certificates, as reflected on the Certificate Register, as the applicable Certificateholders.
(c)            Subject to the transfer restrictions contained herein and in the Certificates, any Holder of a Certificate may transfer all or any portion of the Percentage Interest (subject to the requirements set forth in Section 3.4 and Section 3.7) evidenced by such Certificate upon surrender thereof to the Certificate Registrar accompanied by the documents required by this Article III. Promptly upon the receipt of such documents and receipt by the Certificate Registrar
15

of the transferor’s Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall record the name of such transferee as a Certificateholder and its Percentage Interest in the Certificate Register and issue, execute and deliver to such Certificateholder a Certificate evidencing such Percentage Interest. In the event a transferor transfers only a portion of its Percentage Interest, the Certificate Registrar shall register and issue to such transferor a new Certificate evidencing such transferor’s new Percentage Interest and shall issue, execute and deliver to such transferee a new Certificate evidencing such transferee’s Percentage Interest. Subsequent to each transfer of a beneficial interest and upon the issuance of the new Certificate or Certificates, the Certificate Registrar shall cancel and destroy in accordance with its customary practices the Certificate surrendered to it in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar shall treat, for all purposes whatsoever (other than as required under applicable law), the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the sole owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by such Certificate without regard to any notice to the contrary.
(d)            Definitive Certificates will not be eligible for clearing or settlement through DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream.
SECTION 3.7.      Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a)            The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.10, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall (i) provide for the registration of the Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of the Certificates as herein provided and (ii) record the Percentage Interest evidenced by each Certificate. Wilmington Trust Company shall be the initial Certificate Registrar.

All such transfers of the Certificates will only be made to (i) the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) a Qualified Institutional Buyer, (iii) an Accredited Investor or (iv) pursuant to another exemption from registration under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with the applicable terms of Section 3.7.
(c)            If a Certificate Owner of a Rule 144A Global Certificate deposited with the Clearing Agency wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate for an interest in the corresponding Regulation S Global Certificate, or to transfer its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the corresponding Regulation S Global Certificate, such Certificate Owner, provided such Certificate Owner or, in the case of a transfer, the transferee is (A) a Qualified Institutional Buyer, (B) not a U.S. person, and (C) is acquiring such interest in an offshore transaction, may, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence and the rules and procedures of the Clearing Agency, exchange or transfer, or cause the exchange or transfer of, such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the corresponding Regulation S Global Certificate. Upon receipt by the Clearing Agency of (A) instructions given in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s procedures from a participant directing the Clearing Agency to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial
16

interest in the corresponding Regulation S Global Certificate, but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such Certificate Owner’s Certificate, in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate to be exchanged or transferred, and (B) a written order given in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Clearing Agency to be credited with such increase, then the Clearing Agency shall reduce the nominal principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Certificate and increase the nominal principal amount of the Regulation S Global Certificate by the aggregate nominal principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate to be exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the securities account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the corresponding Regulation S Global Certificate equal to the reduction in the nominal principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Certificate.
(d)            If a Certificate Owner of a Regulation S Global Certificate deposited with the Clearing Agency wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Regulation S Global Certificate for an interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Certificate or to transfer its interest in such Regulation S Global Certificate to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Certificate, such Certificate Owner, provided such Certificate Owner or, in the case of a transfer, the transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer, may, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence and the rules and procedures of the Clearing Agency, exchange or transfer, or cause the exchange or transfer of, such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Certificate. Upon receipt by the Clearing Agency of (A) instructions given in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s procedures from a participant directing the Clearing Agency to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Certificate, but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such Certificate Owner’s Certificate, in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Certificate to be exchanged or transferred, and (B) a written order given in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Clearing Agency to be credited with such increase, then the Clearing Agency shall reduce the nominal principal amount of the Regulation S Global Certificate and increase the nominal principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Certificate by the aggregate nominal principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Certificate to be exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the securities account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the corresponding Rule 144A Global Certificate equal to the reduction in the nominal principal amount of the Regulation S Global Certificate.
(e)            No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Certificates.
(f)            The Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state or other applicable securities laws and will not be listed on any exchange.

(h)            Subject to the transfer restrictions herein, a Certificateholder may assign, convey or otherwise transfer all or any of its right, title and interest in a Certificate. A Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer or exchange in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and accompanied by IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) or IRS Form W-8 BEN-E (or other applicable IRS Form W‑8, not including IRS Form W-8ECI, or IRS Form W-8IMY with any IRS Forms W-8ECI attached), and such other documentation as may be reasonably required by the Owner Trustee in order to comply with Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, each in a form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the applicable Certificateholder or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and, at the Certificate Registrar’s request, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Certificate Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in the Securities Transfer Agent’s Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Certificate Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Exchange Act. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice. No transfer will be effectuated hereunder unless the Owner Trustee has received the transfer documentation required hereunder.

(j)            The transferee of a Certificate acknowledges that it is deemed to represent that, as a result of its own activities separate from those of the Issuer, it would not be required to treat income from the Certificate as effectively connected to a United States trade or business of a person that is not U.S. person (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), and it further acknowledges that this Agreement provides that no Holder of a Certificate shall provide the Owner Trustee or Certificate Registrar with either an IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form) or an IRS Form W-8IMY (or successor form) to which an IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form) is attached (either directly or as part of another form attached to such IRS Form W-8IMY).
(k)            No portion of a Certificate or any interest therein may be transferred, directly or indirectly, to any Person which would provide an IRS Form W‑8ECI or IRS Form W‑8IMY with an attached IRS Form W‑8ECI in response to the withholding requirements of the Code.
(l)            Each Holder of a Certificate or a Certificate Owner, by acceptance of such Certificate or such interest in such Certificate, will be deemed to have represented and covenanted, upon which representation and covenant the Owner Trustee and Certificate Registrar may conclusively rely, that (A) either (I) it is not and will not become for U.S. federal income tax purposes a Flow-Through Entity or (II) if it is or becomes a Flow-Through Entity, then (1) (y) none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such Flow-Through Entity has or ever will have more than 50% of the value of its interest in such Flow-Through Entity attributable to the interest of such Flow-Through Entity in the Class E Notes, the Certificates and any other equity interests in the Trust or (z) it is a Flow-Through Entity that is a special purpose
21

entity organized by the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller for the purpose of owning Certificates and whose organizational documents provide (i) for no more than two (2) beneficial owners as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes in total (collectively, if there is more than one such special purpose entity), (ii) that no such beneficial owner is or shall become a Flow-Through Entity, and (iii) that, prior to the entry into any amendment to or waiver of the organizational documents of such Flow-Through Entity, an opinion of nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel must be delivered to the Trust confirming that, after giving effect to such amendment or waiver, the Trust will not be characterized as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (2) it is not and will not be a principal purpose of the arrangement involving the investment of such Flow-Through Entity in any Certificate to permit any partnership to satisfy the 100 partner limitation of section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations necessary for such partnership not to be classified as a publicly traded partnership under the Code, (B) it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise convey any participating interest in any Certificate or any financial instrument or contract the value of which is determined by reference in whole or in part to any Certificate, (C) it is not acquiring and will not sell, transfer, assign, participate, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Certificate (or interest therein) if such acquisition, sale, transfer, assignment, participation, pledge or disposition is through, or would cause any Certificate (or interest therein) to be marketed on or through an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code, including, without limitation, an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations and (D) it does not and will not beneficially own any Certificate (or any beneficial interest therein) in an amount that is less than the minimum denomination for such Certificate. To the extent a Holder of a Certificate or a Certificate Owner is unable to make each of the representations contained in the foregoing clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D), such Holder of a Certificate or Certificate Owner acknowledges that it is deemed to agree to provide to the Trust an opinion of nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel that its acquisition of a Certificate (or any beneficial interest therein) will not cause the Trust to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. Any transfer of a Certificate (or any beneficial interest therein) that does not comply with the foregoing requirements will be deemed null and void ab initio.
(m)            Each Holder of a Certificate or a Certificate Owner acknowledges that it has been afforded an opportunity to request from the Trust, the Depositor, the originator, the Servicer and the Placement Agent (as defined in an offering document with respect to the Certificates), and has received and reviewed, all information which it has deemed necessary in connection with its decision to purchase the Certificates (or a beneficial interest therein). It acknowledges that none of the Trust, the Depositor, the originator, the Servicer, the Placement Agent nor any of their respective affiliates or any person representing any of them has made any representation to it with respect to any information relating to the offering or sale of the Certificates (or a beneficial interest therein), other than the information contained in an offering document with respect to the Certificates, a copy of which has been delivered to it.
(n)            Each Holder of a Certificate or a Certificate Owner understands that all information furnished to it by the Depositor or representatives of the Depositor in connection with its evaluation of an investment in the Certificates (or a beneficial interest therein) was provided to it on a confidential basis and it agrees not to disclose such information, in whole or in part, to any other person except (i) as required by law, (ii) to purchasers or potential purchasers of the Certificates (or a beneficial interest therein), (iii) pursuant to an order of a court or administrative
22

agency, (iv) in any pending legal or administrative proceeding, (v) upon the request or demand of a regulatory authority, (vi) to such Holder’s or Certificate Owner’s affiliates, employees, counsel and auditors, or (vii) to the extent such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of disclosure by such Holder or Certificate Owner or was or becomes available to such Holder or Certificate Owner from a source not known by such owner to be subject to a confidentiality obligation to the Depositor.
(o)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, no sale or transfer of a Certificate (or beneficial interest therein) shall be permitted (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation), and no such sale or transfer shall be effective hereunder, if the sale or transfer thereof increases to more than 100 the sum of the number of Certificateholders of any Definitive Certificates, the number of Certificate Owners of any Book-Entry Certificates and the number of beneficial owners of the Class E Notes. For purposes of determining the total number of Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and beneficial owners of the Class E Notes, a beneficial owner of an interest in a partnership, grantor trust, S corporation or other Flow-Through Entity that owns, directly or through other Flow-Through Entities, any Definitive Certificates, Book-Entry Certificates or Class E Notes is treated as a Certificateholder of any Definitive Certificates, Certificate Owner of any Book-Entry Certificates or beneficial owner of any Class E Notes if (i) substantially all of the value of such beneficial owner's interest (directly or indirectly) in the Flow-Through Entity is attributed to the Flow-Through Entity's interest in such Certificates or Notes and (ii) a principal purpose of the use of the Flow-Through Entity to hold such Certificates or Notes is to satisfy the 100-holder limitation set out above. If using a Flow-Through Entity to acquire a Certificate, the Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall be deemed to have represented that it is not using the Flow-Through Entity in order to avoid the 100-holder limitation set out above.  In addition, no sale or transfer of a Certificate shall be effective hereunder unless, as evidenced by a written representation and covenant by the transferee in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar (in the case of a Definitive Certificate) or the Depositor (in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate), upon which representation and covenant such Person may conclusively rely, no member of such transferee’s expanded group as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(4) (including through a controlled partnership as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(1)) is or will become the beneficial owner of a Note. If a Certificateholder (in the case of a Definitive Certificate) or Certificate Owner (in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate), or a member of such Certificateholder’s or Certificate Owner’s expanded group becomes the beneficial owner of a Note, the Depositor is authorized at its discretion to compel such Certificateholder or Certificate Owner, as applicable, to sell its Certificates or beneficial interest in Certificates to a Person whose ownership or beneficial ownership complies with this paragraph so long as such sale does not otherwise cause a material adverse effect on the Trust. Any Person that becomes a Certificate Owner shall, by acceptance of its beneficial interest, be deemed to have made the acknowledgments, representations, warranties and covenants required of transferees in this Section 3.7 and covenants and agrees that it will abide by the transfer restrictions applicable to Holders of Certificates set forth herein.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Owner Trustee shall have any obligation to determine the total number of Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and beneficial owners of the Class E Notes or whether any transfer would cause the number of Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and beneficial owners of the Class E Notes to exceed the 100-holder limitation.
23

SECTION 3.8.      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 that such Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Certificate Registrar, or Wilmington Trust Company, as the Certificate Registrar’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 Certificates under this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificates issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates shall be found at any time.
SECTION 3.9.      Persons Deemed Certificateholders.
Every Person by virtue of becoming a Certificateholder in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Prior to due presentation of the Certificates for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificates shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificates for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.
SECTION 3.10.      Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Certificate Registrar shall maintain an office or offices or agency or agencies where the Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Certificate Registrar initially designates its Corporate Trust Office for such purposes. The Certificate Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.
SECTION 3.11.      Tax Treatment of Trust Certificate Register and Transfer Provisions.
The provisions in this Article III relating to the Trust Certificate Register and transfers of the Trust Certificate are intended to comply with the requirements that the Trust Certificate must meet in order to be considered in “registered form” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.871-14(c) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
24

SECTION 3.12.      ERISA Restrictions.
The Certificates (or a beneficial interest therein) may not be purchased by or transferred to any person that is or will be, or that is acting on behalf of or investing assets of an entity that is or will be (i) an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code) that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) any entity whose underlying assets are deemed to include assets of an employee benefit plan or a plan described in (i) or (ii) above by reason of such employee benefit plan’s or plan’s investment in the entity (collectively, a “Plan”), or (iv) an employee benefit plan, a plan or other similar arrangement that is not a Plan but is subject to any provision of federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations substantially similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (each, a “Benefit Plan”). By accepting and holding its beneficial ownership interest in its Certificate, any such Holder thereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.
SECTION 3.13.      Appointment of Certificate Paying Agent.
The Certificate Paying Agent shall make distributions to the Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Article VIII and Article XI hereof. Any Certificate Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee shall revoke such power and remove the Certificate Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee or the Depositor by written direction to the Owner Trustee determines, each in its sole discretion, that the Certificate Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Certificate Paying Agent initially shall be Wilmington Trust Company and any co-paying agent chosen by Wilmington Trust Company and the Depositor. Wilmington Trust Company shall be permitted to resign as Certificate Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor. In the event that Wilmington Trust Company shall no longer be the Certificate Paying Agent, the Depositor, with the consent of the Owner Trustee, shall appoint a successor to act as Certificate Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Certificate Paying Agent or any additional Certificate Paying Agent appointed hereunder to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument in which such successor Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that, as Certificate Paying Agent, such successor Certificate Paying Agent or additional Certificate Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to the Certificateholders. If a successor Certificate Paying Agent does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Certificate Paying Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Certificate Paying Agent, Depositor or the Majority Certificateholders may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Certificate Paying Agent (with all costs, fees, expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Certificate Paying Agent in connection with such petition to be paid by the Trust). The Certificate Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Certificate Paying Agent such Certificate Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee.
25

SECTION 3.14.      Multiple Roles. The provisions of Articles VI and VII of this Agreement shall apply to the Owner Trustee also in its role as Certificate Paying Agent and Certificate Paying Agent for so long as it shall act as Certificate Paying Agent or Certificate Registrar, respectively, and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent, certificate registrar or authenticating agent appointed hereunder.  Any reference in this Agreement to the Certificate Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.  It is expressly acknowledged, agreed and consented to that Wilmington Trust Company will be acting in the capacities of Owner Trustee, Certificate Registrar, and Certificate Paying Agent.  Wilmington Trust Company may, in such multiple capacities, discharge its separate functions fully, without hindrance or regard to conflict of interest principles, duty of loyalty principles or other breach of fiduciary duties (if any) to the extent that any such conflict or breach arises from the performance by Wilmington Trust Company of its express duties set forth in this Agreement or any other Basic Document in such multiple capacities, all of which defenses, claims or assertions are hereby expressly waived by the Depositor, the Trust, the Certificateholders and the Certificate Owners, except in the case of willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence by Wilmington Trust Company in the performance of such multiple capacities.
ARTICLE IV.

Voting Rights and Other Actions
SECTION 4.1.      Prior Notice to Holders with Respect to Certain Matters.
With respect to the following matters, the Owner Trustee shall not take action unless at least 30 days before the taking of such action, the Owner Trustee shall have notified the Certificateholders in writing of the proposed action and no Certificateholder shall have notified the Owner Trustee in writing prior to the 30th day after such notice is given that such Certificateholder has withheld consent or provided alternative direction:
(a)            the election by the Trust to file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust (unless such amendment is required to be filed under the Statutory Trust Statute or unless such amendment would not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders);
(b)            the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is required;
(c)            the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is not required, unless the Owner Trustee shall have received an officer’s certificate of the Depositor to the effect that such amendment will not materially adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders, upon which the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely; or
(d)            except pursuant to Section 12.1(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the amendment, change or modification of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or defect or to amend or supplement any provision in a manner that would not materially adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders (as evidenced by an officer’s certificate of the Depositor to such effect, upon which the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely).
26

The Owner Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders in writing of any appointment of a successor Note Registrar or Indenture Trustee within five Business Days after receipt of notice thereof.
SECTION 4.2.      [Reserved].
SECTION 4.3.      Restrictions on Certificateholders’ Power.
(a)            The Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.3 nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given.
(b)            Each Certificateholder shall not have any right by virtue or by availing itself of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action, or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement or any Basic Document, unless such Certificateholder previously shall have given to the Owner Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as provided in this Agreement, and also unless such Certificateholder shall have made written request upon the Owner Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Owner Trustee under this Agreement and shall have offered to the Owner Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Owner Trustee, for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request, and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit, or proceeding, and during such 30-day period no request or waiver inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Owner Trustee pursuant to and in compliance with this Section or Section 5.3. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, the Certificateholders and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.
SECTION 4.4.      [Reserved].
SECTION 4.5.      Action with Respect to Bankruptcy Action.
(a)            The Trust shall not, without the prior written consent of the Owner Trustee, (i) institute any proceedings to adjudicate the Trust bankrupt or insolvent, (ii) consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Trust, (iii) file a petition seeking or consenting to reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law relating to bankruptcy with respect to the Trust, (iv) consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Trust or a substantial part of its property, (v) make any assignment for the benefit of the Trust’s creditors; (vi) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; (vii) declare or effect a moratorium on its debt; or (viii) take any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing (any of the above foregoing actions, a “Bankruptcy Action”). In considering whether to give or withhold written consent to a Bankruptcy Action by the Trust, the Owner Trustee, with the consent of the Majority Certificateholders (hereby given, which consent each such Certificateholder believes to be in the best interests of the Certificateholder and the Trust), shall consider the interests of the Noteholders in addition to the interests of the Trust and whether the Trust is insolvent; provided, however, that
27

the Owner Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the Noteholders. The Owner Trustee shall have no duty to give such written consent to a Bankruptcy Action by the Trust if the Owner Trustee shall not have been furnished (at the expense of the Trust or the Person that requested that such letter be furnished to the Owner Trustee) with a letter from an independent accounting firm of national reputation stating that in the opinion of such firm the Trust is then insolvent. The Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) shall not be personally liable to any Person on account of the Owner Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Section or in connection with the Owner Trustee’s giving prior written consent to a Bankruptcy Action by the Trust in accordance herewith, or withholding such consent, in good faith, and neither the Trust nor the Certificateholders shall have any claim for breach of fiduciary duty or otherwise against the Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) for giving or withholding its consent to any such Bankruptcy Action.
(b)            The parties hereto stipulate and agree that no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner has power to commence any Bankruptcy Action on the part of the Trust or to direct the Owner Trustee to take any Bankruptcy Action on the part of the Trust except as provided in Section 4.5(a). To the extent permitted by applicable law, the consent of the Indenture Trustee shall be obtained prior to taking any Bankruptcy Action by the Trust.
(c)            The provisions of this Section do not constitute an acknowledgement or admission by the Trust, the Owner Trustee, any Certificateholder, any Certificate Owner or any creditor of the Trust that the Trust is eligible to be a debtor, under the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq., as amended.
SECTION 4.6.      Covenants and Restrictions on Conduct of Business.
(a)            The Trust agrees to abide by the following restrictions:
(i)            other than as contemplated by the Basic Documents and related documentation, the Trust shall not incur any indebtedness;

(xii)            hold itself out as a separate entity from the Certificateholders and not conduct any business in the name of the Certificateholders;
(xiii)        correct any known misunderstanding regarding its separate identity;
(xiv)        not identify itself as a division (other than for tax reporting purposes) of any other person or entity; and
(xv)         except as required or specifically provided in the Trust Agreement, conduct business with the Certificateholders or any Affiliate thereof on an arm’s length basis.
(c)            So long as the Notes or any other amounts owed under the Indenture remain outstanding, the Trust shall not amend this Section 4.6 unless the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied.
29

It shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge (or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and to administer the Trust in the interest of the Holders, subject to the Basic Documents and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the Basic Documents to the extent the Servicer has agreed in the Sale and Servicing Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Trust or the Owner Trustee hereunder or under any Basic Document, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the default or failure of the Servicer to carry out its obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
SECTION 5.3.      Action upon Instruction.
(a)            Subject to Article IV, the Depositor shall have the exclusive right to direct the actions of the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust, so long as such instructions are not inconsistent with the express terms set forth herein or in any Basic Document. The Depositor shall not instruct the Owner Trustee in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents.
(b)            The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law.
(c)            Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or any Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Depositor requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Depositor received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

31

the Depositor, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

The Owner Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, of any Basic Document or of the Certificates (other than the signature and countersignature of the Owner Trustee and, if the Owner Trustee is the Certificate Registrar, the authentication by the Certificate Registrar on the Certificates) or the Notes, or related documents. The Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Owner Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to the Certificateholders under this Agreement or the Noteholders under the Indenture, including, without limitation: the compliance by the Depositor, the Servicer or any other Person with any warranty or representation made under any Basic Document or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation or any action of the Owner Trustee or the Servicer or any subservicer taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

37

or any of the Basic Documents to which the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Paying Agent is a party.
SECTION 6.9.      Doing Business in Other Jurisdictions.

SECTION 6.11.      Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s Customer Due Diligence Requirements.
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Customer Identification Program (CIP) requirements established under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Title III of Pub. L. 107 56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “USA PATRIOT Act”), the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s (“FinCEN”) Customer Due Diligence Requirements and such other laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions (“Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law”), requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. Accordingly, in order to comply with Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, the Owner Trustee will request on or before the Closing Date and from time to time thereafter reasonable documentation to verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. For a non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Owner Trustee will ask for reasonable
38

documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity, financial statements, licenses, tax identification documents, and identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity or other relevant documentation and information (including beneficial owners of such entities). The Owner Trustee may, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected and indemnified in relying on, any such information received, and failure to provide such information may result in an inability of the Owner Trustee to perform its obligations hereunder which, at the sole option of the Owner Trustee, may result in the immediate resignation of the Owner Trustee, in accordance with Section 9.2.
In addition to the Owner Trustee’s obligations under the USA PATRIOT Act, the Corporate Transparency Act (31 U.S.C. § 5336) and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “CTA”), may require the Trust to file certain reports with FinCEN after the date of this Agreement.  It shall be the Depositor’s or the Servicer’s duty, and not the Owner Trustee’s duty, to cause the Trust to make such filings or to cause the Trust to comply with its obligations under the CTA, if any.
The parties hereto agree that for purposes of Applicable Anti-Money Laundering Law, including without limitation the CTA as applicable, (a) the Certificateholders are and shall be deemed to be the sole direct owners of the Trust and (b) one or more Controlling Parties of the Certificateholders shall be deemed to be the parties with the power and authority to exercise substantial control over the Trust.

Compensation of Owner Trustee
SECTION 7.1.      Owner Trustee’s Fees and Expenses.

The indemnities contained in this Section and the rights under Section 7.1 shall survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee or the termination of this Agreement. In any event of any claim, action or proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section, the Owner Trustee’s choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the Depositor which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. To the extent any such Expenses due to the Owner Trustee or other Indemnified Party hereunder shall not have been paid or reimbursed by the Trust pursuant to Section 5.7(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 5.6 of the Indenture, as applicable, within ninety (90) days after receipt by the Trust and Exeter of a detailed invoice in respect thereof, Exeter shall promptly pay the Owner Trustee or such other Indemnified Party for any such unpaid Expenses. If, subsequent to any such payment by Exeter to the Owner Trustee or other Indemnified Party described in the immediately preceding sentence, the Owner Trustee or such other Indemnified Party receives payment or reimbursement in respect of the related Expenses, in part or in full, from the Trust, then the Owner Trustee or such other Indemnified Party shall promptly refund Exeter for the amount of such payment or reimbursement received from the Trust on such subsequent date.
SECTION 7.3.      Payments to the Owner Trustee.
Any amounts paid to the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Article VII shall be deemed not to be a part of the Owner Trust Estate immediately after such payment.
SECTION 7.4.      Non-recourse Obligations.

The Seller or the Servicer shall promptly notify the Owner Trustee of any prospective dissolution pursuant to this Section.

In the event that any Certificateholder shall not surrender its Certificate for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Servicer on behalf of the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall give a second written notice to such Certificateholder to surrender its Certificate for cancellation and receive the final
41

distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice such Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact such Certificateholder concerning surrender of its Certificate, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement. Any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed, subject to applicable escheat laws, by the Certificate Paying Agent to the Holders.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be located, the Servicer and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Owner Trust Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Servicer and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, the Owner Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 9.3.
Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(i)            all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Owner Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;
(ii)            no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and
44

(iii)            the Servicer and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Servicer.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Certificateholders or the Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of the Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe. Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State.
Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an opinion of counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Agreement, if any, to the execution and delivery of such amendment have been satisfied. The Owner Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any amendment to this Agreement or the Basic Documents which affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities.
No amendment pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall be effective which affects the rights, protections or duties of the Certificate Registrar or the Certificate Paying Agent without the prior written consent of such Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Depositor shall (i) obtain all such consents or (ii) certify that no such consent is required, upon which, in either case, the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely.

ARTICLE XI.

Application of Trust Funds; Certain Duties
SECTION 11.1.      Establishment of Trust Accounts.
(a)            The Certificate Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trust a distribution non-interest bearing, uninvested account (the “Certificate Distribution Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Certificate Distribution Account shall be maintained as an Eligible Deposit Account.
(b)            The Trust shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Certificate Paying Agent for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Certificate Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Certificate Paying Agent shall within ten Business Days establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new Certificate Distribution Account.
SECTION 11.2.      Application of Trust Funds.
(a)            On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Paying Agent shall distribute amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date in the following order of priority:
(i)            to make payments to the Certificateholders, pro rata based on the Percentage Interest of each Certificateholder, any remaining amount deposited therein; and
(ii)            to clear and terminate the Certificate Distribution Account upon the termination of this Agreement;
(b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificate Paying Agent shall distribute amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account on the Distribution Date solely to the extent the Certificate Distribution Account is funded by 12:00 P.M., eastern standard time on the Distribution Date.  Amounts received in the Certificate Distribution Account after 12:00 P.M. eastern standard time on the Distribution Date will be distributed without interest as soon as practicable, but no later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof.
(c)            In the event that any U.S. federal withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to the Certificateholders, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders in accordance with this Section. The Owner Trustee or Certificate Paying Agent is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Paying Agent from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding
51

payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed with respect to the Certificateholders shall be treated as cash distributed to the Certificateholders at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that U.S. federal withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Paying Agent may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph.
(d)            Any Holder of a Certificate that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date such Holder becomes a Holder, (i) notify the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent and (ii)(A) provide the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent with IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) or IRS Form W-8 BEN-E (or other applicable IRS Form W‑8, not including IRS Form W-8ECI, or IRS Form W-8IMY with any IRS Forms W-8ECI attached), as appropriate, or (B) notify the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent that it is not entitled to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax or a reduction in the rate thereof on payments of interest. Any such Holder agrees by its acceptance of a Certificate, on an ongoing basis, to provide like certification for each taxable year and to notify the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent should subsequent circumstances arise affecting the information provided the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Paying Agent in clauses (i) and (ii) above. The Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon, and each Holder by its acceptance of a Certificate hereunder agrees to indemnify and hold the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent harmless against all claims or liability of any kind arising in connection with or related to the Owner Trustee’s and the Certificate Paying Agent’s reliance upon any documents, forms or information provided by any Holder to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Paying Agent.
SECTION 11.3.      Method of Payment.
Distributions required to be made to the Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of each Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Paying Agent appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to such Distribution Date, or, if not, by check mailed to each Certificateholder at the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register.
SECTION 11.4.      Preservation of Information; Communications to Certificateholders.
(a)            The Certificate Registrar shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Certificateholders received in its capacity as the Certificate Registrar and provide a copy thereof to the Owner Trustee and Certificate Paying Agent; provided, however, that so long as the Certificate Paying Agent is the Certificate Registrar, no list separate from the Certificate Register shall be required to be provided to the Certificate Paying Agent.
(b)            The Certificateholders may communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates. Upon receipt by the
52

Certificate Registrar of any written request by three or more Certificateholders or by one or more Certificateholders holding in the aggregate more than 25% of the Percentage Interests to receive a copy of the most current list of Certificateholders together with a copy of the communication that the applicant proposes to send, the Certificate Registrar shall, at the expense of the Trust, distribute such list to the requesting Certificateholders; provided, that the Certificate Registrar may elect not to afford the requesting Certificateholders access to the list of Certificateholders if it agrees to mail the desired communication or proxy, on behalf of and at the expense of the requesting Certificateholders, to all Certificateholders. By accepting a Certificate or an interest in a Certificate, each Certificateholder agrees that the Certificate Registrar may distribute the information described in, and in accordance with, this Section and shall have no liability to any person for such distribution.

(Reverse of Certificate)
This Certificate does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or any Affiliates of any of them and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust Agreement, the Indenture or the Basic Documents. In addition, this Certificate is not guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality and is limited in right of payment to certain collections with respect to the Receivables, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. A copy of each of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement may be examined during normal business hours at the principal office of the Seller, and at such other places, if any, designated by the Seller, by the Certificateholder upon written request.
The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Seller under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Seller and the Owner Trustee with the consent of the Majority Noteholders and the Majority Certificateholders. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Certificateholders.
As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained by the Certificate Registrar in the Corporate Trust Office, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the holder hereof or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Certificate evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee. The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is Wilmington Trust Company. No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
It is the intention of the parties to the Trust Agreement that, solely for U.S. federal income or state and local income, franchise and value added tax purposes, (i) the Trust will be treated as a fixed investment trust described in Treasury Regulation section 301.7701-4(c) that is treated as a grantor trust under subtitle A, chapter 1, subchapter J, part I, subpart E of the Code and (ii) the Notes will be treated as debt. By accepting this Certificate, the Certificateholder hereby agrees to take no action inconsistent with the foregoing intended tax treatment.
No sale or transfer of a Certificate (or beneficial interest therein) shall be permitted (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation), and no such sale or transfer shall be effective under the Trust Agreement, if the sale or transfer thereof increases to more than 100 the sum of the number of Certificateholders of any Definitive Certificates, the number of Certificate Owners of any Book-Entry Certificates and the number of beneficial owners of the Class E Notes. For purposes of determining the total number of Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and

A-6
beneficial owners of the Class E Notes, a beneficial owner of an interest in a partnership, grantor trust, S corporation or other Flow-Through Entity that owns, directly or through other Flow-Through Entities, any Definitive Certificates, Book-Entry Certificates or Class E Notes is treated as a Certificateholder of any Definitive Certificates, Certificate Owner of any Book-Entry Certificates or beneficial owner of any Class E Notes if (i) substantially all of the value of such beneficial owner's interest (directly or indirectly) in the Flow-Through Entity is attributed to the Flow-Through Entity's interest in such Certificates or Notes and (ii) a principal purpose of the use of the Flow-Through Entity to hold such Certificates or Notes is to satisfy the 100-holder limitation set out above. If using a Flow-Through Entity to acquire a Certificate, the Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall be deemed to have represented that it is not using the Flow-Through Entity in order to avoid the 100-holder limitation set out above.  In addition, no sale or transfer of a Certificate shall be effective under the Trust Agreement unless, as evidenced by a written representation and covenant by the transferee in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar (in the case of a Definitive Certificate) or the Depositor (in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate), upon which representation and covenant such Person may conclusively rely, no member of such transferee’s expanded group as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(4) (including through a controlled partnership as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(1)) is or will become the beneficial owner of a Note. If a Certificateholder (in the case of a Definitive Certificate) or Certificate Owner (in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate), or a member of such Certificateholder’s or Certificate Owner’s expanded group becomes the beneficial owner of a Note, the Depositor is authorized at its discretion to compel such Certificateholder or Certificate Owner, as applicable, to sell its Certificates or beneficial interest in Certificates to a Person whose ownership or beneficial ownership complies with this paragraph so long as such sale does not otherwise cause a material adverse effect on the Trust. Any Person that becomes a Certificate Owner shall, by acceptance of its beneficial interest, be deemed to have made the acknowledgments, representations, warranties and covenants required of transferees in Section 3.7 of the Trust Agreement and covenants and agrees that it will abide by the transfer restrictions applicable to holders of Certificates set forth therein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Owner Trustee shall have any obligation to determine the total number of Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and beneficial owners of the Class E Notes or whether any transfer would cause the number of Certificateholders, Certificate Owners and beneficial owners of the Class E Notes to exceed the 100-holder limitation.
THE FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE APPLICABLE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CERTIFICATIONS (GENERALLY, AN INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (“IRS”) FORM W-9 (OR SUCCESSOR FORM) IN THE CASE OF A PERSON THAT IS A “UNITED STATES PERSON” WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 7701(A)(30) OF THE CODE, OR AN APPROPRIATE IRS FORM W-8 (OR SUCCESSOR FORM) OTHER THAN AN IRS FORM W-8ECI OR IRS FORM W-8IMY WITH AN IRS FORM W-8ECI ATTACHED IN THE CASE OF A PERSON THAT IS NOT A UNITED STATES PERSON) MAY RESULT IN THE IMPOSITION OF U.S. FEDERAL WITHHOLDING OR BACK-UP WITHHOLDING UPON PAYMENTS TO THE HOLDER IN RESPECT OF THIS CERTIFICATE.

Each of the Owner Trustee, Certificate Registrar, Certificate Paying Agent and any agent of thereof may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee, Certificate Registrar, Certificate Paying Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
The obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to the Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust. The Seller or the Servicer of the Receivables may at its option purchase the corpus of the Trust at a price specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such purchase of the Receivables and other property of the Trust will effect early retirement of the Certificates; however, such right of purchase is exercisable, subject to certain restrictions, only as of the last day of any Collection Period as of which the Pool Balance is 10% or less of the Original Pool Balance.
This Certificate may not be purchased by or transferred to any person that is or will be, or that is acting on behalf of or investing assets of an entity that is or will be (i) an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) any entity whose underlying assets are deemed to include assets of an employee benefit plan or a plan described in (i) or (ii) above by reason of such employee benefit plan’s or plan’s investment in the entity (collectively, a “Plan”), or (iv) an employee benefit plan, a plan or other similar arrangement that is not a Plan but is subject to any provision of federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations substantially similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (each, a “Benefit Plan”). By accepting and holding this Certificate, the Holder hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, and neither the Owner Trustee nor Certificate Registrar assume responsibility for the correctness thereof.  The Owner Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Certificate and neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate
