ARTICLE III
The Receivables

Section 3.1.                     Representations and Warranties of Seller.  The Seller makes the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which the Issuing Entity is deemed to have relied in acquiring the Receivables.  Such representations and warranties speak as of the Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Receivables, and as of the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, in the case of the Subsequent Receivables, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Issuing Entity and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

(a)           Title.  It is the intention of the Seller that the transfer and assignment herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Seller to the Issuing Entity and that the beneficial interest in and title to the Receivables not be part of the debtor’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy or similar law.  No Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Seller to any Person other than the Issuer.  Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, the Seller had good title to each Receivable, free and clear of all Liens and, immediately upon the transfer thereof, the Issuer shall have good title to each Receivable, free and clear of all Liens; and the transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Issuer has been, or within the timeframe required by Section 3.1(b) hereof will be, perfected under the UCC.

If (but only to the extent) that the transfer of the CNHCR Assets hereunder is characterized by a court or other governmental authority as a loan rather than a sale, the Seller shall be deemed hereunder to have granted to the Issuing Entity a security interest in all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the CNHCR Assets.  Such security interest shall secure all of Seller’s obligations (monetary or otherwise) under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party, whether now or hereafter existing or arising, due or to become due, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent.  The Seller shall have, with respect to the property described in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2, and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to Seller under this Agreement and applicable law, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC, and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

(b)           All Filings Made. All filings (including UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Issuer a first priority perfected ownership interest in the Receivables, and to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected security interest therein, have been made, or will be made within 10 days after the Closing Date.

(c)           Perfection Representations. The Seller further makes all the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Schedule P.

Section 3.2.                     Repurchase upon Breach.  (a)  The Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties to this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 6.1, a breach of CNHCA’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of the Liquidity Receivables Purchase

6

Agreement, or CNHCA’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of the Purchase Agreement.  Unless a breach pursuant to the sections and documents referenced in the preceding sentence shall have been cured by the last day of the second (or, if the Seller elects, the first) Collection Period after such breach is discovered by the Servicer or the Trustee or in which the Trustee receives written notice from the Seller or the Servicer of such breach, the Seller shall be obligated, and, if necessary, the Seller or the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of CNHCA under the Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, as applicable, to repurchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by any such breach as of such last day. As consideration for the repurchase of the Receivable, the Seller shall remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 5.5; provided, however, that the obligation of the Seller to repurchase any Receivable arising solely as a result of a breach of CNHCA’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of the Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement and Section 3.2(b) of the Purchase Agreement is subject to the receipt by the Seller of the Purchase Amount from CNHCA.  Subject to the provisions of Section 6.3, the sole remedy of the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of the representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.1 and the agreement contained in this Section shall be to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables pursuant to this Section, subject to the conditions contained herein, and to enforce CNHCA’s obligation to the Seller to repurchase such Receivables pursuant to the Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, as applicable.

(b)           With respect to all Receivables purchased or repurchased by, or otherwise transferred to (including Liquidated Receivables transferred under Section 4.3, 4.6 and 9.1) CNHCA, the Servicer, the Seller or their Affiliate pursuant to this Agreement, the Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Purchase Agreement: (i) the Issuing Entity, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee shall sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to CNHCA, the Servicer, the Seller or their Affiliate, as applicable, without recourse, representation or warranty, all of the Issuing Entity’s, the Seller’s and the Indenture Trustee’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Receivables, related Financed Equipment, and all other Initial Assets or Subsequent Assets related thereto, including all security and documents relating thereto, and (ii) the Issuing Entity, the Seller, and the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have released any security interest and any other claim under this Agreement and the Basic Documents in such Receivables, related Financed Equipment, and all other Initial Assets or Subsequent Assets related thereto, including all security and documents relating thereto, without any further act or deed, and such Receivables, related Financed Equipment, and all security and documents relating thereto will be free of the Grant contained in the Indenture.

Section 3.3.                     Custody of Receivable Files.  To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Issuing Entity hereby revocably appoints the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act for the benefit of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee as custodian of the following documents or instruments, which are hereby constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Issuing Entity (or, in the case of the Subsequent Receivables, will as of the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date be constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Issuing Entity) with respect to each Receivable:

(a)           the original fully executed copy of the Receivable;

7

(b)           a record or facsimile of the original credit application fully executed by the Obligor;

(c)           the original certificate of title or file stamped copy of the UCC financing statement or such other documents that the Servicer shall keep on file (if any), in accordance with its customary procedures, evidencing the security interest of CNHCA in the Financed Equipment; and

(d)           any and all other documents that the Servicer, the Seller or CNHCA shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary procedures, relating to a Receivable, an Obligor or any of the Financed Equipment.

Section 3.4.                     Duties of Servicer as Custodian.  (a)  Safekeeping. The Servicer (or its Affiliates, but only in accordance with the second following sentence) shall hold the Receivable Files for the benefit of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee and maintain such accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems pertaining to each Receivable File as shall enable the Issuing Entity to comply with this Agreement. In performing its duties as custodian, the Servicer shall act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to the receivable files relating to all comparable equipment receivables that the Servicer services for its Affiliates or others.  The Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, may at any time delegate its duties as custodian to any Affiliate of the Servicer; provided, that no such delegation shall relieve the Servicer of its responsibility with respect to such duties and the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Issuing Entity, the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee for its duties hereunder as if the Servicer alone were performing such duties. The Servicer shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, periodic audits of the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems, in such a manner as shall enable the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee to verify the accuracy of the Servicer’s record keeping.  The Servicer shall promptly report to the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee any material failure on its part, or its Affiliate’s part, to hold the Receivable Files and maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require an initial review or any periodic review by the Issuing Entity, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee of the Receivable Files.

(b)           Maintenance of and Access to Records. The Servicer shall maintain each Receivable File at one or more of its offices and/or one or more of its Affiliate’s offices; provided that at no time shall a Receivable File be moved to an office or location outside the geographic boundaries of the United States.  With at least five (5) Business Days prior notice, the Servicer shall make available for inspection by the Seller, the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee or their respective duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors a list of locations of the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems maintained by the Servicer at such times during normal business hours as the Seller, the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee shall instruct.

Section 3.5.                     Instructions; Authority To Act.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have received proper instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of written instructions signed by a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee.

8

Section 3.6.                     Custodian’s Indemnification.  The Servicer as custodian shall indemnify the Trust, the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee (and each of their officers, directors, employees and agents) for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Trust, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee (or any of their officers, directors and agents) as the result of any improper act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody by the Servicer as custodian of the Receivable Files; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable: (a) to the Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Trustee, and (b) to the Indenture Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Indenture Trustee; and, provided further, that the Servicer shall only be liable pursuant to this Section 3.6 for its acts or omissions committed during the period it is serving as custodian hereunder.  Indemnification under this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Servicer as custodian, the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee or the termination of this Agreement.

Section 3.7.                     Effective Period and Termination.  The Servicer’s appointment as custodian shall become effective as of the Initial Cutoff Date and shall continue in full force and effect until terminated pursuant to this Section. If any Servicer shall resign as Servicer in accordance with this Agreement or if all of the rights and obligations of any Servicer shall have been terminated under Section 8.1, the appointment of such Servicer as custodian shall be terminated by:  (a) the Indenture Trustee, (b) the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance, (c) with the consent of Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance, the Trustee or (d) Certificateholders evidencing not less than 25% of the beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, in the same manner as the Indenture Trustee or such Holders may terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under Section 8.1.  The Indenture Trustee or, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Trustee may terminate the Servicer’s appointment as custodian, with cause, at any time upon written notification to the Servicer, and without cause upon 30 days’ prior written notification to the Servicer. As soon as practicable after any termination of such appointment, the Servicer shall deliver the Receivable Files to the Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Trustee’s agent at such place(s) as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate.  The Issuing Entity shall give notification to the Counterparties upon termination of the Servicer as custodian.

Section 3.8.                     Backup Servicer as Custodian.  The Backup Servicer shall only act as custodian pursuant to Section 3.4 hereunder if it is simultaneously acting as Successor Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV
Administration and Servicing of Receivables

Section 4.1.                     Duties of Servicer.  The Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuing Entity, and (to the extent provided herein) the Indenture Trustee shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, exercises with respect to all comparable equipment receivables that it services for its Affiliates or others. The Servicer’s duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on such

9

Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons or statements to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions. Subject to Section 4.2, the Servicer shall follow its then current customary standards, policies and procedures (“Servicing Procedures”) in performing its duties as Servicer.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or the Financed Equipment securing such Receivables. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Issuing Entity shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Trustee shall, at the Servicer’s direction (and, so long as the Servicer is NH Credit, at the Servicer’s expense), take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders. The Trustee or the Indenture Trustee shall, upon the written request of the Servicer, furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

Section 4.2.                     Collection and Allocation of Receivable Payments.  The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow its Servicing Procedures.  The Servicer shall allocate collections between principal and interest in accordance with its Servicing Procedures.

Without limiting the generality of the preceding or Section 4.1, the Servicer may grant extensions, rebates, refunds, deferrals, amendments, modifications or adjustments on a Receivable (regardless of whether or not the Receivable is a 180-Day Receivable, subject only to the following proviso) in accordance with its Servicing Procedures; provided, however, that if a Receivable is not a 180-Day Receivable and the Servicer (i) extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of any Receivable beyond the Final Scheduled Maturity Date or (ii) reduces the APR of a Receivable or reduces the aggregate amount of the Scheduled Payments due on any Receivable other than as required by applicable law (including the order of a court of competent jurisdiction), the Servicer may make such modifications to a Receivable but it shall promptly purchase the Receivable from the Issuing Entity in accordance with Section 4.6 (a “Modification Purchase Event”); provided, further, that the Servicer shall not make a modification described in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) that would trigger a Modification Purchase Event for the sole purpose of purchasing a Receivable from the Issuing Entity. The Servicer may, in its discretion, waive any late payment charge or any other fees (other than extension fees or any other fees that represent interest charges on deferred Scheduled Payments) that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable.

Subject to the proviso of the third sentence of this Section 4.2, the Servicer and its Affiliates may engage in any marketing practice or promotion or any sale of any products, goods

10

or services to Obligors with respect to the Receivables so long as such practices, promotions or sales are offered to obligors of comparable equipment receivables serviced by the Servicer for itself or others, whether or not such practices, promotions or sales might result in a decrease in the aggregate amount of payments on the Receivables, prepayments or faster or slower timing of the payment of the Receivables.  The Servicer and its Affiliates may also sell insurance or debt cancellation products, including products which result in the cancellation of some or all of the amount of a Receivable upon the death or disability of an Obligor or any casualty with respect to the Financed Equipment.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer and its Affiliates may refinance any Receivable and deposit an amount equal to the Purchase Amount for such Receivable into the Collection Account.  The receivable created by such refinancing shall not be property of the Issuing Entity, and related Financed Equipment and any part of the Receivables Files and other Initial Assets or Subsequent Assets related to such Receivable shall be released to the Servicer or its Affiliate and shall no longer be subject to the terms hereof or the Indenture; provided further, that any security interests in favor of the Issuing Entity or the Indenture Trustee hereunder or under the Indenture in the related Financed Equipment and any other Initial Assets or Subsequent Assets related to such Receivable shall be deemed released upon such deposit.  The parties hereto intend that the Servicer and its Affiliates will not refinance a Receivable pursuant to this Section 4.2 in order to provide direct or indirect assurance to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Trustee, the Noteholders, or the Certificateholder, as applicable, against loss by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency (or other credit condition) of, or default by, the Obligor on, or the uncollectability of, any Receivable.

Section 4.3.                     Realization upon Receivables.  For the benefit of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall use reasonable efforts, consistent with its Servicing Procedures, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of the Financed Equipment securing any Receivable as to which the Servicer shall have determined eventual payment in full is unlikely.  The Servicer shall follow such Servicing Procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of equipment receivables, which may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any recourse to Dealers and selling the Financed Equipment at public or private sale (it being understood that, if the Backup Servicer is acting as Successor Servicer, it shall have no duty to enforce remedies against Dealers).  The foregoing shall be subject to the provision that, in any case in which the Financed Equipment shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Equipment unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair and/or repossession will increase the Liquidation Proceeds by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses.

Liquidated Receivables will be transferred to the Servicer or CNHCA (as the Servicer determines at such time) on the Business Day following the day on which such Receivable becomes a Liquidated Receivable (the “Liquidated Receivable Transfer Date”) so long as the related Liquidation Proceeds are deposited before the Liquidated Receivables are transferred to the Servicer or CNHCA, as applicable, and as of the Liquidated Receivable Transfer Date such Liquidated Receivables will no longer constitute Receivables for any purposes hereunder.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as of the applicable Liquidated Receivable Transfer Date (i) the Issuing Entity, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee shall transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to CNHCA or Servicer, as applicable, without recourse,

11

representation or warranty, all of the Issuing Entity’s, the Seller’s and the Indenture Trustee’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Liquidated Receivables and any related Financed Equipment and Collateral, and all security and documents relating thereto, other than Liquidation Proceeds (the “Liquidated Collateral”), and (ii) the Issuing Entity, the Seller, and the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have released any security interest and any other claim in such Liquidated Collateral under this Agreement and the Basic Documents, without any further act or deed, and such Liquidated Collateral shall be free of the Grant contained in the Indenture.

Section 4.4.                     Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Equipment.  The Servicer shall, in accordance with its Servicing Procedures, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Equipment (which may consist of Substitute Equipment); provided however, the Servicer may allow Financed Equipment to be released from any security interest in connection with Section 4.14.  The Servicer is hereby authorized to take such steps as are necessary to perfect or re-perfect such security interest for the benefit of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of any Financed Equipment, any change to the UCC, a substitution of Substitute Equipment  or for any other reason.  Any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Successor Servicer in connection with any such re-perfection shall be reimbursable in accordance with Section 5.6(b)(x).

Section 4.5.                     Covenants of Servicer.  The Servicer shall not release the Financed Equipment securing any Receivable from the security interest granted by such Receivable in whole or in part except in the event of payment in full by the Obligor thereunder or repossession, or as permitted under Section 4.14 or if such Receivable is a Reacquired Receivable, nor shall the Servicer impair the rights of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders in such Receivables. The Servicer shall, in accordance with its Servicing Procedures, require that each Obligor shall have obtained physical damage insurance covering the Financed Equipment as of the execution of the Receivable.

Section 4.6.                     Purchase of Receivables upon Breach or Due to Modification.  The Servicer or the Trustee shall inform the other party, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller, NH Credit and CNHCA promptly, in writing, upon the occurrence or discovery of any breach pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.4 or 4.5.  Unless a breach, pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.4 or 4.5 shall have been cured by the last day of the Collection Period in which such breach occurs or is discovered, as applicable, the Servicer shall purchase or shall cause CNHCA to purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach as of such last day.  In connection with a Modification Purchase Event, or if the Servicer takes any action not in accordance with its Servicing Procedures during any Collection Period pursuant to Section 4.2 that materially impairs the rights of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders in any Receivable, the Servicer shall purchase the related Receivable as of the last day of such Collection Period.  As consideration for the purchase of any such Receivable pursuant to either of the two preceding sentences, the Servicer shall remit or shall cause CNHCA to remit, as applicable, the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 5.5.  Subject to Section 7.2, the sole remedy of the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders with respect to a breach pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.4 or 4.5 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase or to cause CNHCA to purchase, as applicable, Receivables pursuant to this Section.  The Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative

12

investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the purchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section.  In no event shall the Backup Servicer as Successor Servicer be obligated to purchase any Receivables pursuant to this Section 4.6.

Section 4.7.                     Servicing Fee.  The Servicing Fee for each Collection Period shall be equal to 1/12th of 1.00% of the Pool Balance as of the first day of such Collection Period; provided that with respect to any Successor Servicer hereunder, the Servicing Fee for each Collection Period shall be equal to the greater of (a) 1/12th of 1.00% of the Pool Balance as of the first day of such Collection Period, (b) $8.50 per Contract in the Trust Estate as of the first day of such Collection Period and (c) $5,000.

Section 4.8.                     Servicer’s Certificate.  On each Determination Date (beginning with the Determination Date immediately preceding the initial Payment Date) the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Seller and the Backup Servicer, with a copy to the Rating Agencies and the Counterparties, a Servicer’s Certificate (containing substantially the same information as set forth in the form on Exhibit C) containing all information necessary to make the distributions pursuant to Sections 5.6 and 5.7 and the deposits to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.3 for the Collection Period preceding the date of such Servicer’s Certificate.

Section 4.9.                     Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Default.  (a)  The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee, on or before March 30 of each year, an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer providing such information as is required under Item 1123 of Regulation AB with respect to the prior calendar year.

(b)           The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuing Entity, on or before March 30 of each year, a report regarding the Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the applicable servicing criteria specified in Item 1122 of Regulation AB during the immediately preceding calendar year, including any material instance of noncompliance identified by the Servicer as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB.

(c)           The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Counterparties and the Rating Agencies, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officer’s Certificate of any event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default under  Section 8.1(a) or (b).

Section 4.10.                   Annual Independent Certified Public Accountants’ Report.  The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants, which may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller or any other Affiliate of CNH Global, to deliver to the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies on or before March 30 of each year a report, providing its assessment of compliance with the minimum servicing criteria during the preceding calendar year, including disclosure of any material instance of non-compliance, as required by Rule 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item
1122(b) of Regulation AB.  Such attestation will be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

13

The report required by this Section may be replaced, at the Servicer’s option, by any similar report or certification using standards which are now or in the future in use by servicers of comparable assets or which otherwise comply with any rule, regulation, “no action” letter or similar guidance promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In the event that such firm requires the Indenture Trustee to agree to the procedures performed by such firm, the Servicer shall direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Indenture Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee makes no independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.

Such report will also indicate that the firm is independent of the Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

Notwithstanding the preceding in this Section 4.10 or 4.9(b), if the Backup Servicer is acting as the Successor Servicer, as to any fiscal year of the Issuing Entity when the Issuing Entity’s reporting obligations under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act are suspended as provided in Rule 15d-22 under the Exchange Act, the Backup Servicer shall only be required to provide a copy of its annual SAS 70 report and its audited financial statements.

Section 4.11.                   Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding Receivables.  The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Indenture Trustee access to the Receivable Files in such cases where the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee shall be required by applicable statutes or regulations to review such documentation. Access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during the normal business hours at the office of the Servicer.  Provided, however, at any time upon written request of the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer will provide (within 10 days of receipt of such request) an electronic data file containing all relevant loan level information on each Receivable necessary for a Successor Servicer to assume servicing responsibilities, including current mailing address and telephone number, current balance, payment schedule and past due status of each Obligor (such request not to be made more frequently than one per month).  Nothing in this Section shall affect the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

Section 4.12.                   Servicer Expenses.  The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder, including fees and disbursements of independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Servicer and expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to Certificateholders and the Noteholders. All reasonable costs and expenses and indemnities (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the engagement of a Backup Servicer (including obtaining a Backup Servicer to replace SST as Backup Servicer), or transitioning the Backup Servicer to the role of Successor Servicer, including any engagement fees, travel expenses or due diligence costs and other reasonable expense reimbursements incurred by the Backup Servicer pursuant to the Backup Servicing Agreement and all indemnification payments payable to the Backup Servicer pursuant to the

14

Backup Servicing Agreement (collectively, such fees, expenses and costs and indemnities, the “Backup Servicer Expenses”) shall be paid from funds available in the Backup Servicer Account upon presentation of reasonable documentation to the Servicer.  Distributions of Backup Servicer Expenses shall be made in accordance with Section 5.13. To the extent that any Backup Servicer Expenses exceed the amount on deposit in the Backup Servicer Account (any such shortfall, a “Backup Servicer Account Shortfall Amount”), the Servicer (so long as the Servicer is NH Credit) agrees, within thirty days of demand thereof, to deliver to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Backup Servicer Account,  such Backup Servicer Account Shortfall Amount.

If amounts in the Backup Servicer Account are insufficient to fully reimburse the Backup Servicer in respect of Backup Servicer Expenses, the Backup Servicer shall be reimbursed pursuant to Section 5.6(b)(xi).

Section 4.13.                   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, however, that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied in connection therewith (other than with respect to the appointment of CNHCA, as subservicer, with respect to the Receivables); and provided further, that the Servicer shall remain obligated and be liable to the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Counterparties, the Certificateholders and the Noteholders for the servicing and administering of the Receivables in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation and liability by virtue of the appointment of such subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Receivables. The fees and expenses of any subservicer shall be as agreed between the Servicer and such subservicer from time to time and none of the Issuing Entity, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Counterparties, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders shall have any responsibility therefor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Backup Servicer as Successor Servicer shall have the right to terminate any prior or existing subservicing arrangement with or without cause.

Section 4.14.                   Substitution of Financed Equipment.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Basic Documents to the contrary, in accordance with the Servicing Procedures, the Financed Equipment relating to a Receivable may be replaced with substitute equipment, of equal or greater value (in the Servicer’s reasonable determination) than the original related Financed Equipment (“Substitute Equipment”); provided, however, the only conditions to such a substitution (in addition to its being in accordance with the Servicing Procedures) shall be the perfection of the first priority security interest in the related Substitute Equipment in favor of CNHCA, and a first priority perfected security interest of the Indenture Trustee in all of CNHCA’s right, title and interest in its security interest in the Substitute Equipment.  Following such substitution, the Substitute Equipment shall be considered the Financed Equipment related to such Receivable for all purposes hereunder and under the Basic Documents, and (i) the Issuing Entity, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee shall sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to CNHCA (or its Affiliate designated by it), without recourse, representation or warranty, all of the Issuing Entity’s, the Seller’s and the Indenture Trustee’s right, title and interest in, to and under such original Financed Equipment, and all security and documents relating thereto, and (ii) the Issuing Entity, the Seller, and the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have released any security interest and any other claim in such original Financed Equipment (and all security and documents relating thereto) hereunder and under the other Basic

15

Documents, without any further act or deed, and such original Financed Equipment (and all security and documents relating thereto) will be free of the Grant contained in the Indenture.

The Indenture Trustee shall possess or control all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Backup Servicer Account and in all proceeds thereof (including all income thereon). The Backup Servicer Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Backup Servicer.

(ii)                                  With respect to the Trust Account Property or Backup Servicer Account Property, the Indenture Trustee agrees, by its acceptance hereof, that:

(A)          any Trust Account Property or Backup Servicer Account Property that is held in deposit accounts shall be held solely in Eligible Deposit Accounts, subject to the last sentence of Section 5.1(c)(i);  and each such Eligible Deposit Account shall be subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto;

(D)          with respect to any Trust Account Property or Backup Servicer Account Property that constitutes a Federal Book Entry Security, the Indenture Trustee shall maintain and obtain Control over such property.

18

(iii)          The Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Indenture Trustee or by the Trustee, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, to instruct the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Trust Accounts and the Backup Servicer Account for the purpose of permitting the Servicer or the Trustee to carry out its respective duties hereunder or permitting the Indenture Trustee to carry out its duties under the Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as: (i) NH Credit remains the Servicer, (ii) no Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii) prior to ceasing remittances as described in the preceding sentence, the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied (and any conditions or limitations imposed by the Rating Agencies in connection therewith are complied with), the Servicer shall remit such collections with respect to the related Collection Period to the Collection Account on the Transfer Date immediately following the end of such Collection Period.  For purposes of this Article V,  the phrase “payments by or on behalf of the Obligors” shall mean payments made with respect to the Receivables by Persons other than the Servicer or the Seller.  On any Payment Date with respect to which the Backup Servicer shall have been acting as Successor Servicer during the related Collection Period, the Backup Servicer, in its capacity as Successor Servicer, may direct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from the Collection Account and pay to the Backup Servicer, in its capacity as Successor Servicer, the sum of any accrued amounts expended by such Successor

(vii)         to the Note Distribution Account, the Class Interest Amount for the Class B Notes;

(viii)        to the Note Distribution Account, the Note Monthly Principal Distributable Amount;

(ix)           to the Spread Account to the extent necessary so that the balance on deposit therein will equal the Specified Spread Account Balance;

It is understood and agreed that, with respect to the amounts to be distributed pursuant to this Section 5.6(c), the Servicer shall, to the extent necessary (i) deposit into the Collection Account any amounts received as payments by or on behalf of any Obligor (and not previously deposited into the Collection Account) on or prior to the A-1 Note Final Scheduled Maturity Date, (ii) make each calculation that would otherwise be made on a Determination Date (with appropriate adjustments) in accordance with Section 4.8 on the Business Day immediately proceeding the A-1 Note Final Scheduled Maturity Date, (iii) on the Payment Date immediately succeeding the A-1 Note Final Scheduled Maturity Date, make any adjustments to the Note Monthly Principal Distributable Amount, the Class Interest Amount and any other amount to be paid on such Payment Date, and (iv) make any other calculation, adjustment or correction that may be required as a result of any payment made on the A-1 Note Final Scheduled Maturity Date.

Section 5.7.                     Spread Account.  (a)  On the Closing Date and on each Subsequent Transfer Date, the Seller shall deposit the applicable Spread Account Initial Deposit into the Spread Account.

(b)           If the amount on deposit in the Spread Account on any Payment Date (after giving effect to all deposits or withdrawals therefrom on such Payment Date) is greater than the Specified Spread Account Balance for such Payment Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to distribute the amount of the excess to the Seller (and its transferees and assignees in accordance with their respective interests); provided, that if, after giving effect to all payments made on the Notes on such Payment Date, the sum of the Pool Balance and the Pre-Funded Amount as of the first day of the Collection Period in which such Payment Date occurs is less than the Note Balance, such excess shall not be distributed to the Seller (or such transferees or assignees) and shall be retained in the Spread Account for application in accordance with this Agreement. Amounts properly distributed pursuant to this Section 5.7(b) shall be deemed released from the Trust and the security interest therein granted to the Indenture Trustee, and the Seller (and such transferees and assignees) shall in no event thereafter be required to refund any such distributed amounts.

(c)           Following: (i) the payment in full of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes and of all other amounts owing or to be distributed hereunder or under the Indenture to the Noteholders, the Counterparties, the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and (ii) the termination of the Trust, any amount remaining on deposit in the Spread Account shall be distributed to the Seller or any transferee or assignee pursuant to  clause (e) .  The Seller (and such transferees and assignees) shall in no event be required to refund any amounts properly distributed pursuant to this Section 5.7(c).

(e)           The Seller may at any time, without consent of the Noteholders, sell, transfer, convey or assign in any manner its rights to and interests in distributions from the Spread Account, including interest and other investment earnings thereon; provided, that the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

Section 5.8.                     Pre-Funding Account.  (a)  Subject to the proviso set forth in Section 5.1(a)(iv), on the Closing Date, the Trustee will deposit, on behalf of the Seller, in the Pre-Funding Account $0 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes.  On each Subsequent Transfer Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from the Pre-Funding Account an amount equal to: (i) the aggregate Contract Value of the Subsequent Receivables transferred to the Issuing Entity on such Subsequent Transfer Date  less  the amounts described

(b)           If:  (i) the Pre-Funded Amount has not been reduced to zero on the Payment Date on which the Funding Period ends (or, if the Funding Period does not end on a Payment Date, on the first Payment Date following the end of the Funding Period) or (ii) the Pre-Funded Amount has been reduced to $200,000 or less on any Determination Date, in either case after giving effect to any reductions in the Pre-Funded Amount on such date pursuant to paragraph (a), the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from the Pre-Funding Account, in the case of clause (i), on such Payment Date or, in the case of clause (ii), on the Payment Date immediately succeeding such Determination Date, the amount remaining at the time in the Pre-Funding Account (such remaining amount being the “Remaining Pre-Funded Amount”) and deposit such amounts in the Collection Account, for inclusion in the Total Distribution Amount for that Payment Date.

Section 5.9.                     Negative Carry Account.  Subject to the proviso set forth in Section 5.1(a)(v), on the Closing Date, the Seller shall deposit the Negative Carry Account Initial Deposit into the Negative Carry Account.  On each Payment Date, the Servicer will instruct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from the Negative Carry Account and deposit into the Collection Account an amount equal to the Negative Carry Amount for such Collection Period.

Section 5.10.                   Principal Supplement Account.  On each Subsequent Transfer Date the Servicer shall calculate the amount, if any, of the Principal Supplement Account Deposit applicable to such Subsequent Transfer Date, and, if such amount is positive, the Seller shall deposit such amount into the Principal Supplement Account (subject to the proviso set forth in Section 5.1(a)(vi)).  In the event that the sum of (x) the First Principal Payment Amount and the Noteholders’ Distributable Amount for a Payment Date, (y) the Net Swap Payments (including interest on any overdue Net Swap Payments) for a Payment Date, if any, and (z) the Priority Swap Termination Payments payable by the Issuing Entity, if any, exceeds the amount deposited into the Note Distribution Account pursuant to Sections 5.6(b)(iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) on such Payment Date and Section 5.7(d) on such Payment Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee on such Payment Date to withdraw from the Principal Supplement Account on such Payment Date an amount equal to such excess, to the extent of funds available therein, and deposit such amount into the Note Distribution Account.  Funds on deposit in the Principal Supplement Account may be withdrawn and paid to the Seller on any day if each Rating Agency has confirmed that such action will not result in a withdrawal or downgrade of its rating of any Class of Notes.

Section 5.11.                   Statements to Certificateholders and Noteholders.  (a)  On each Determination Date the Servicer shall provide to the Indenture Trustee (with a copy to the Rating

23

Agencies), for the Indenture Trustee to make available to each Noteholder of record, and, if NH Credit or an Affiliate is not the Servicer or the Depositor is not the sole Certificateholder, to the Indenture Trustee (if the Indenture Trustee is responsible on the related Payment Date to make the payment required under Section 5.2(a) of the Trust Agreement) or the Trustee (if the Trustee is responsible on the related Payment Date to make the payment required under Section 5.2(a) of the Trust Agreement), for the Indenture Trustee or Trustee, as applicable, to forward to each Certificateholder of record, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C, setting forth at least the following information as to each Class of the Notes and the Certificates to the extent applicable:

The Indenture Trustee will make the statement to Noteholders available each month to Noteholders and other parties to the Basic Documents via the Indenture Trustee’s internet website, which is presently located at ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇.

Persons who are unable to use the above website are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the Indenture Trustee at (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇.  The Indenture Trustee shall have the right to change the way the statement to Noteholders is distributed in order to make such distribution more convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties and to the Noteholders.  The Indenture Trustee shall provide timely and adequate notification to all above parties and to the Noteholders regarding any such change.

In connection with any electronic transmissions of information, including without limitation, the use of electronic mail or internet or intranet web sites, the systems used in such

25

transmissions are not fully tested by the Indenture Trustee and may not be completely reliable as to stability, robustness and accuracy.  Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that information electronically transmitted as described herein may not be relied upon as timely, accurate or complete and that the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability hereunder in connection with such information transmitted electronically.  The parties hereto further acknowledge that any and all systems, software or hardware utilized in posting or retrieving any such information are utilized on an “as is” basis without representation or warranty as to the intended uses of such systems, software or hardware.  The Indenture Trustee makes no representation or warranty that the systems and the related software used in connection with the electronic transmission of information are free and clear of threats known as software and hardware viruses, time bombs, logic bombs, Trojan horses, worms, or other malicious computer instructions, intentional devices or techniques which may cause a component or system to become erased, damaged, inoperable, or otherwise incapable of being used in the manner to which it is intended, or which would permit unauthorized access thereto.

Section 5.12.                   Net Deposits.  As an administrative convenience, unless the Servicer is required to remit collections within two Business Days of the Posted Date, the Servicer will be permitted to make the deposit of collections net of distributions, if any, to be made to the Servicer with respect to the Collection Period.  The Servicer, however, will account to the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders as if all deposits, distributions and transfers were made individually.

Section 5.13.                   Backup Servicer Account.  (a)  On the Closing Date, the Seller, or the Servicer on its behalf, shall deposit the Backup Servicer Account Initial Deposit into the Backup Servicer Account. On each Payment Date to the extent that any Backup Servicer Expenses are then due and payable, the Servicer will instruct the Indenture Trustee in writing to withdraw an amount equal to such Backup Servicer Expenses then due and payable, and distribute such amount to the Person entitled thereto. If the amount on deposit in the Backup Servicer Account on any Payment Date (after giving effect to the withdrawal therefrom for the payment of Backup Servicer Expenses for such Payment Date) is greater than the Backup Servicer Account Required Amount, the excess will be released to the Seller; provided however, such excess will only be released to the Seller (i) to the extent that all reimbursable expenses of the Backup Servicer as set forth in the following sentence that are due have been paid and (ii) so long as no Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  In addition, the amount on deposit in the Backup Servicer Account will also be made available to pay reasonable costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred by the Backup Servicer.  The Seller (and any of its transferees and assignees) shall in no event be required to refund any amounts properly distributed to it pursuant to this Section 5.13.

(b)           If the amount on deposit in the Backup Servicer Account is insufficient to cover any Backup Servicer Expenses, NH Credit, as Servicer, shall pay such fees and expenses to the Backup Servicer out of its Servicing Fee.

(c)           Following: (i) the payment in full of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes and all amounts owing or to be distributed to the Backup Servicer hereunder and (ii) the termination of the Trust, any amount remaining on deposit in the Backup Servicer Account shall be distributed to the Seller or any transferee or assignee.

(e)                                  The Servicer shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, reimburse either the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee, respectively, upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made in accordance with the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, respectively, (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its agents and either in-house counsel or outside counsel, but not both), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s or the Trustee’s, respectively negligence, bad faith or willful misfeasance.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sections 7.2(a)(ii), (a)(iv), (b), (c), (d) and (e) shall not apply to the Backup Servicer in its capacity as Successor Servicer.  For purposes of this Section, in the event of the termination of the rights and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.1, or a resignation by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to be the Servicer pending appointment of a Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 8.2.

Indemnification under this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or the termination of this Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Indenture and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.  If the Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer, without interest.

Section 7.3.                                                                Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Servicer.  Any Person: (a) into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, (b) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or (c) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Servicer substantially as a whole, which Person (in any of the foregoing circumstances) executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer hereunder (or is deemed by law to have assumed such obligations), shall be the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement without further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Servicer Default, and no event that, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee and Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section and that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, (iii) the Rating Agencies and the Counterparties shall have received at least ten days’ prior written notice of such transaction and (iv) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either: (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee,

33

respectively, in the Receivables and reciting the details of such filings, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (a), (b) or (c); provided, however, that this Section 7.3 shall not apply to mergers or consolidations of the Backup Servicer in its capacity as Successor Servicer within ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank N.A.

Section 7.4.                                                                Limitation on Liability of 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 Issuing Entity, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, 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 misfeasance, 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 Receivables 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 Basic Documents and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement, the Basic  Documents and the interests of the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

Section 7.5.                                                                NH Credit Not to Resign as Servicer.  Subject to Section 7.3, NH Credit shall not resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it as Servicer under this Agreement except upon determination that the performance of its duties under this Agreement shall no longer be permissible under applicable law and such impermissibility cannot be reasonably and promptly cured. Notice of any such determination shall be communicated to the Trustee, the Counterparties, the Backup Servicer and the Indenture Trustee at the earliest practicable time (and, if such communication is not in writing, shall be confirmed in writing at the earliest practicable time) and any such determination shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee, the Counterparties and the Indenture Trustee concurrently with or promptly after such notice.  No such resignation shall become effective until the Indenture Trustee or a Successor Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of NH Credit in accordance with Section 8.2.

Section 7.6.                                                                Servicer to Act as Administrator.  In the event of the resignation or removal of the Administrator and the failure of a successor Administrator to have been appointed and to have accepted such appointment as successor Administrator, the Servicer shall become the successor Administrator and shall be bound by the terms of the Administration Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Backup Servicer, in its capacity as Successor Servicer, be required to act as Administrator.

ARTICLE VIII
Default

Section 8.1.                                                                Servicer Default.  If any one of the following events (a “Servicer Default”) shall occur and be continuing:

(a)                                  any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or the Certificate Distribution Account any required payment or to direct the Indenture Trustee or the Trustee to make any required distributions therefrom, which failure continues unremedied for three Business Days after written notice of such failure is received by the Servicer from the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or after discovery of such failure by an officer of the Servicer;

(b)                                 any failure by the Servicer or the Seller, as the case may be, duly to observe or to perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements (other than as set forth in  clause (a))  of the Servicer or the Seller (as the case may be) set forth in this Agreement or any other Basic Document, which failure shall: (i) materially and adversely affect the rights of Certificateholders or Noteholders and (ii) continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given: (A) to the Servicer or the Seller (as the case may be) by the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or (B) to the Servicer or the Seller (as the case may be) and to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, by the Noteholders or Certificateholders, as applicable, evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or 25% of the beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity;

(c)                                  an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Servicer; or

(d)                                 the failure by NH Credit as Servicer to engage a replacement Backup Servicer within one hundred eighty days after the date that SST is terminated as Backup Servicer, unless SST is terminated as Backup Servicer pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Backup Servicing Agreement, in which case a Backup Servicer will no longer be required, notwithstanding anything in the Basic Documents to the contrary;

then, and in each and every case, so long as the Servicer Default shall not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee, or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, by notice then given in writing to the Servicer and to any Backup Servicer that is engaged at that time (and to the Indenture Trustee and the Trustee if given by the Noteholders), may terminate all the rights and obligations (other than the obligations set forth in Section 7.2) of the Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Backup Servicer, acting as Successor Servicer, may not be terminated for a Servicer Default set forth in Section 8.1(b) with respect to the Seller or under Section 8.1(d).  On or after the receipt by the Servicer and any Backup Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificates, the Receivables or otherwise, shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in (a) the Backup Servicer, or if no Backup Servicer is then engaged (b) the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer as may be appointed under Section 8.2; and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee and the Trustee are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf

35

of the predecessor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the termination of the Servicer, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables and related documents, or otherwise.  The predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the Successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the Successor Servicer for administration by it of: (i) all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for deposit, or shall thereafter be received by it with respect to a Receivable and (ii) all Receivable Files. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with such transfer, including the costs of transferring the Receivable Files to the Successor Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect its succession as Servicer, shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses.  Upon receipt of written notice of the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Trustee shall give written notice thereof to the Rating Agencies and the Counterparties.

Section 8.2.                                                                Appointment of Successor Servicer.  (a)  Upon the Servicer’s receipt of notice of termination, pursuant to Section 8.1, or the Servicer’s resignation in accordance with this Agreement, the predecessor Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, in the case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until receipt of such notice and, in the case of resignation, until the earlier of: (x) the date 60 days from the delivery to the Trustee, the Counterparties and the Indenture Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or written confirmation of such notice) in accordance with this Agreement and (y) the date upon which the predecessor Servicer shall become unable to act as Servicer, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel. In the event of the Servicer’s termination hereunder, if no Backup Servicer is then engaged, the Issuing Entity shall appoint a Successor Servicer acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, and the Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee.  In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed at the time when the predecessor Servicer has ceased to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer and shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee.  Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture Trustee shall, if it shall be unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established institution, having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of equipment receivables, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement.

(b)                                 Upon appointment, the Successor Servicer (including the Indenture Trustee acting as Successor Servicer) shall be the successor in all respects to the predecessor Servicer (except with respect to responsibilities and obligations of the predecessor Servicer set forth in Section 7.2) and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities arising thereafter relating thereto placed on the predecessor Servicer and shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all the rights granted to the predecessor Servicer by this Agreement.  None of the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or any other Successor Servicer shall be deemed to be liable for or in breach of any obligations hereunder due to any act or omission of a predecessor Servicer, including but not limited to failure of such predecessor Servicer to timely deliver to the Indenture Trustee any required information pertaining to the Receivables, any funds required to

36

be deposited with the Indenture Trustee, or any breach of duty of such predecessor Servicer to cooperate with a transfer of servicing as required hereunder.  Any Successor Servicer shall from time to time provide to NH Credit such information as NH Credit shall reasonably request with respect to the Receivables and collections thereon.

(c)                                  Subject to the Indenture Trustee’s right to appoint a Successor Servicer pursuant to the last sentence of clause (a) after the Indenture Trustee has become Servicer, the Servicer may not resign unless it is prohibited from serving as such by law as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Trustee.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any transition expenses, servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein or be liable for or be required to make any servicer advances.

Section 8.3.                                                                Notification to Noteholders and Certificateholders.  Upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this  Article VIII , the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Noteholders, the Counterparties, the Backup Servicer and the Rating Agencies.

Section 8.4.                                                                Waiver of Past Defaults.  The Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Note Balance (or the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the beneficial interest in the Issuing Entity, in the case of any default that does not materially and adversely affect the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders) may, on behalf of all the Noteholders and Certificateholders, waive in writing any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from any of the Trust Accounts or the Backup Servicer Account in accordance with this Agreement.  Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement.  No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto.

ARTICLE IX
Termination

Section 9.1.                                                                Optional Purchase of All Receivables.  (a)  As of the first day of any Collection Period immediately preceding a Payment Date as of which the Pool Balance is 10% or less of the Initial Pool Balance, CNHCA shall have the option (but no obligation) to purchase all of the Trust Estate, other than the Trust Accounts.  To exercise such option, CNHCA shall deposit, pursuant to Section 5.5, in the Collection Account an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables plus the value of any other property held by the Trust, such value to be as reasonably determined by CNHCA, and CNHCA shall succeed to all interests in, to and under the Trust Estate, other than the Trust Accounts; provided that CNHCA shall not exercise such option unless the amount so deposited, together with funds on deposit in the Trust

37

Accounts, would be sufficient to pay the Redemption Price pursuant to Section 10.1(a) of the Indenture and all amounts due and payable to the Counterparties.

(b)                                 Upon any sale of the assets of the Trust, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to deposit the proceeds from such sale after all payments and reserves therefrom have been made (the “Sale Proceeds”) in the Collection Account.  On the Payment Date, or, if such proceeds are not so deposited on a Payment Date, on the first Payment Date following the date on which the Sale Proceeds are deposited in the Collection Account, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to make the following payments and deposits (after the application on such Payment Date of the Total Distribution Amount and funds on deposit in the Spread Account pursuant to  Sections 5.6 and 5.7) from the Sale Proceeds and any funds remaining on deposit in the Spread Account (including the proceeds of any sale of investments therein as described in the following sentence):

(i)                                     first, to pay the Backup Servicer its accrued and unpaid Backup Servicer Fees;

(ii)                                  second, to pay the Servicer its accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee;

(iii)                               third, to the Indenture Trustee for amounts due under Section 6.7 of the Indenture;

(iv)                              fourth, to the Administrator, its accrued and unpaid Administration Fees;

(v)                                 fifth, to the Note Distribution Account for distribution pursuant to Section 8.2(e) of the Indenture to the extent of all amounts payable under such Section, other than any amounts that would be deposited into the Certificate Distribution Account under such Section ;

(vi)                              sixth, first, to the Backup Servicer, to cover any accrued and unpaid reimbursable expenses (including the Backup Servicer Expenses) to the extent unreimbursed after application of Section 4.12 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and second to the Servicer, to cover any accrued and unpaid reimbursable expenses; and

(vii)                           seventh, to the Issuing Entity for distribution to the Certificateholders.

Any investments on deposit in the Spread Account that will not mature on or before such Payment Date shall be sold by the Indenture Trustee at such time as will result in the Indenture Trustee receiving the proceeds from such sale not later than the Transfer Date preceding such Payment Date.

(c)                                  As described in Article IX of the Trust Agreement, once CNHCA has made its determination to make the purchase described under Section 9.1(a) (the “Clean-Up Call”), the Servicer shall send notice of the anticipated dissolution of the Trust to the Trustee and the Backup Servicer as soon as practicable after the Servicer has received notice of the Clean-Up Call.  In addition, the Servicer shall give notice of termination of the Trust to the Counterparties.

38

(d)                                 Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the Certificateholders will succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder and the Trustee will succeed to the rights of, and assume the obligations of, the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE X
Miscellaneous Provisions

Section 10.1.                                                          Amendment.  Any term or provisions of this Agreement may be amended by the Issuing Entity, the Seller and the Servicer without the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Certificateholder, any Noteholder, the Counterparties, the Trustee or any other Person (other than the written consent of the Backup Servicer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) subject to the satisfaction of one of the following conditions:

(i)                                     the Seller or the Servicer delivers an Opinion of Counsel to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; or

(ii)                                  the Seller and the Servicer deliver an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller and Servicer, respectively, to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders.

An amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholders of a Class of Notes if the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such amendment for such Class of Notes.

The Specified Spread Account Balance may be reduced or the definition thereof otherwise modified without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders if the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer and the Issuing Entity, with the written consent of the Indenture Trustee, but without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, to: (x) replace the Spread Account with another form of credit enhancement as long as such substitution will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any Class of the Notes or (y) add credit enhancement for the benefit of any Class of the Notes.

This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer and the Issuing Entity, with the written consent of (a) the Indenture Trustee, (b) Noteholders holding Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Note Balance, and (c) the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the beneficial interest in the Trust, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall: (a) reduce the interest rate or principal of any Note or Certificate, or delay the Class Final Scheduled Maturity Date of any Note or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Notes and the Certificates that are required to consent to any such

39

amendment, without the consent of the holders of all the outstanding Notes and Certificates affected thereby.

Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent (or, in the case of the Rating Agencies and the Counterparties, prior thereto), the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee, each of the Rating Agencies and the Counterparties.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of 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.

Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Trustee and the Indenture 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 the other Basic Documents and that all conditions precedent to such execution and delivery by the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee have been satisfied. The Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Trustee’s or the Indenture Trustee’s, as applicable, own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (other than as provided in the following paragraph), any term or provision of this Agreement may be amended by the Seller, and the Servicer without the consent of any of the Noteholders, Certificateholders, the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee or any other Person to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be necessary or advisable in order to comply with or obtain more favorable treatment under or with respect to any law or regulation or any accounting rule or principle (whether now or in the future in effect); it being a condition to any such amendment that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

With respect to any amendment pursuant to this Section 10.1, if any amendment or supplement would either: (a) materially and adversely affect any of the Counterparties’ rights or obligations under an Interest Rate Swap Agreement or any other Basic Document; or (b) materially and adversely modify the obligations of, or materially and adversely impact the ability of, the Trust to fully perform any of the Trust’s obligations under an Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee shall be required to first obtain the written consent of the applicable Counterparties to the affected Interest Rate Swap Agreements before entering into any such amendment or supplement (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Basic Documents, the Seller, the Servicer and the Originator may enter into, deliver and perform any agreements, documents and certificates in connection with a sale of the Class B Notes on or after the Closing Date without notice to, or the consent of, any Noteholders, Certificateholders or any other Person, and without satisfaction of a Rating Agency Condition or any other conditions.  The Issuing Entity, the Counterparties, Indenture Trustee, Backup Servicer, and the Trustee may enter into, deliver and perform any agreements, documents and certificates in connection with such sale of the Class B Notes without notice to, or the consent of, any Noteholders, Certificateholders or any

40

other Person, and without satisfaction of a Rating Agency Condition (unless satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition is required due to reliance on clause (ii) below) or any other conditions, so long as the Seller (i) delivers an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller to the Indenture Trustee to the effect that such agreements, documents and/or certificates will not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders (it being agreed hereunder that the officer delivering such Officer’s Certificate may assume therein that an entity making as of such sale date representations in such agreements, documents or certificates that were also made in the Basic Documents as of the Closing Date do not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders and/or Certificateholders) or (ii) satisfies the Rating Agency Condition.

Section 10.2.                                                          Protection of Title to Trust.  (a)  The Seller shall execute and file such financing statements, and cause to be executed and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by applicable law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the right, title and interest of the Issuing Entity and the interests of the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables, the other property sold hereunder and in the proceeds thereof.  The Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above as soon as available following such filing.  The Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller in connection with the obligations set forth above and will execute any and all documents reasonably required to fulfill the intent of this paragraph.

(b)                                 Neither the Seller nor the Servicer shall change its name, identity or organizational structure in any manner that would or could reasonably be expected to make any financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with paragraph (a) seriously misleading within the applicable provisions of the UCC and shall give the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee notice thereof no later than 10 days after the effective date thereof and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements or continuation statements.

(c)                                  Each of the Seller and the Servicer shall have an obligation to give the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee notice within 15 days after (and, in any case, no later than 10 days after the effective date thereof) of any relocation of its principal executive office or its “location” as defined in Section 9-307 of the UCC and if, as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement and shall promptly file any such amendment. The Servicer shall at all times maintain each office from which it shall service Receivables, and its “location” (as defined in Section 9-307 of the UCC), within the United States of America.

(d)                                 The Servicer shall maintain accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit: (i) the reader thereof to know at any time the status of such Receivable, including payments and recoveries made and payments owing (and the nature of each) and (ii) reconciliation between payments or recoveries on (or with respect to) each Receivable and the amounts from time to time deposited in the Collection Account in respect of such Receivable.

41

(e)                                  The Servicer shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of sale under this Agreement of the Receivables, the Servicer’s master computer records (including any backup archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly the interest of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by the Issuing Entity and has been pledged to The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Indenture Trustee. Indication of the Issuing Entity’s and the Indenture Trustee’s interest in a Receivable may be deleted from or modified on the Servicer’s computer systems when, and only when, the related Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased or purchased by the Servicer, or otherwise transferred to the Servicer or CNHCA pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof.

(f)                                    If at any time the Seller or the Servicer shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in equipment receivables to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Servicer shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records or printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Issuing Entity and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee.  From and after the date of this Agreement, the Servicer will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on, any interest in, to and under the Receivables (other than Reacquired Receivables).

(g)                                 The Servicer shall permit the Indenture Trustee and its agents at any time during normal business hours to inspect, audit and make copies of and abstracts from the Servicer’s records regarding any Receivable.  The Indenture Trustee and its agents shall give reasonable notice of any such inspection or audit and such inspection shall be conducted in a manner that does not cause undue disruption or interference with the Servicer’s business.

(h)                                 Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee or to the Indenture Trustee, within five Business Days, a list of all Receivables (by contract number and name of Obligor) then held as part of the Trust, together with a reconciliation of such list to the Schedule of Receivables and to each of the Servicer’s Certificates furnished before such request indicating removal of Receivables from the Trust.

(i)                                     The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee:

(1)                                  promptly after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, an Opinion of Counsel either: (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements and continuation statements have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables, and reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest; and

(2)                                  within 90 days after the beginning of each calendar year beginning with the first calendar year beginning more than three months after the Initial Cutoff Date, an Opinion of Counsel, dated as of a date during such 90-day period, either: (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements

42

and continuation statements have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables, and reciting the details of such filings or referring to prior Opinions of Counsel in which such details are given, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest.

Each Opinion of Counsel referred to in clause (1) or (2) shall specify any action necessary (as of the date of such opinion) to be taken in the following year to preserve and protect such interest.

(j)                                     The Seller shall, to the extent required by applicable law, cause the Certificates and the Notes to be registered with the Commission pursuant to Section 12(b) or Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in such sections.
