of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Servicer, or constitute a material
breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement to which
the Servicer is a party or by which the Servicer or any of the
Servicer's properties may be bound, or result in the creation of or

ARTICLE IV
PERFECTION OF TRANSFER AND PROTECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS;
Section 4.01. Custody of Contracts. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Section 4.01, the contents of each Contract File shall be
held in the custody of the Servicer for the benefit of, and as agent for, the
Certificateholders and the Trustee as the owner thereof.
(b) The Servicer agrees to maintain the related Contract Files at its
offices where they are currently maintained, or at such other offices of the
Servicer in the State of Nevada as shall from time to time be identified to the
Trustee by written notice. The Servicer may temporarily move individual Contract
Files or any portion thereof without notice as necessary to conduct collection
and other servicing activities in accordance with its customary practices and
procedures; provided, however, that the Servicer will take all action necessary
to maintain the perfection of the Trust's interest in the Contracts and the
proceeds thereof. It is intended that by the Servicer's agreement pursuant to
Section 4.01(a) above and this Section 4.01(b) the Trustee shall be deemed to
have possession of the Contract Files for purposes of Section 9-305 of the
Uniform Commercial Code of the State in which the Contract Files are located.
(c) As custodian, the Servicer shall have and perform the
following powers and duties:
(i) hold the Contract Files on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, maintain accurate records
pertaining to each Contract to enable it to comply with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, maintain a current inventory thereof,
conduct annual physical inspections of Contract Files held by it under
this Agreement and certify to the Trustee annually that it continues to
maintain possession of such Contract Files;
(ii) implement policies and procedures in writing and signed
by a Servicing Officer with respect to persons authorized to have
access to the Contract Files on the Servicer's premises and the
receipting for Contract Files taken from their storage area by an
employee of the Servicer for purposes of servicing or any other
purposes;
(iii) attend to all details in connection with maintaining
custody of the Contract Files on behalf of the Certificateholders and
the Trustee;
(iv) at all times maintain the original of the fully
executed Contract and store such original Contract in a fireproof
vault;
(v) stamp each Contract on both the first and the signature
page (if different) as of the Closing Date (or Subsequent Transfer
Date, as the case may be) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M;
-29-
(vi) within 30 days of the Closing Date (or Subsequent
Transfer Date, as the case may be) deliver an Officer's Certificate to
the Trustee certifying that as of a date no earlier than the Closing
Date (or Subsequent Transfer Date, as the case may be) it has conducted
an inventory of the Contract Files (which in the case of Subsequent
Contracts, need be only of the Contract Files related to such
Subsequent Contracts) and that there exists a Contract File for each
Contract and stating all exceptions to such statement, if any; and
(vii) within 185 days of the Closing Date (or Subsequent
Transfer Date, as the case may be) deliver an Officer's Certificate to
the Trustee listing each Contract with respect to which there did not
exist as of 180 days of the Closing Date (or Subsequent Transfer Date,
as the case may be) an original title certificate to the motorcycle and
the certificate of lien recordation relating thereto.
(d) In performing its duties under this Section 4.01, the Servicer
agrees to act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and care that it
exercises with respect to similar contracts for the installment purchase of
consumer goods owned and/or serviced by it, and in any event with no less degree
of skill and care than would be exercised by a prudent servicer of motorcycle
conditional sales contracts. The Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustee
any failure by it to hold the Contract Files as herein provided and shall
promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. In acting as
custodian of the Contract Files, the Servicer further agrees not to assert any
legal or beneficial ownership interest in the Contracts or the Contract Files,
except as provided in Section 5.06. The Servicer agrees to indemnify the
Certificateholders, the Trustee for any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, payments, costs, or expenses of any kind whatsoever which may
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Certificateholders, or the
Trustee as the result of any act or omission by the Servicer relating to the
maintenance and custody of the Contract Files; provided, however, that the
Servicer will not be liable for any portion of any such amount resulting from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Certificateholder, or the
Trustee. The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or otherwise oversee the
Servicer's performance as custodian hereunder.
Section 4.02. Filing. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Servicer
shall cause the UCC financing statement(s) referred to in Section 2.02(g) hereof
to be filed and from time to time the Servicer shall take and cause to be taken
such actions and execute such documents as are necessary or desirable or as the
Trustee may reasonably request to perfect and protect the Trust's first priority
perfected interest in the Trust Corpus against all other persons, including,
without limitation, the filing of financing statements, amendments thereto and
continuation statements, the execution of transfer instruments and the making of
notations on or taking possession of all records or documents of title.
-30-
Section 4.03. Name Change or Relocation. (a) During the term of this
Agreement, neither the Seller nor the Trust Depositor shall change its name,
identity or structure or relocate its chief executive office without first
giving at least 30 days' prior written notice to the Trustee.
(b) If any change in either the Seller's or the Trust Depositor's name,
identity or structure or other action would make any financing or continuation
statement or notice of lien filed under this Agreement seriously misleading
within the meaning of applicable provisions of the UCC or any title statute,
the Servicer, no later than five days after the effective date of such change,
shall file such amendments as may be required to preserve and protect the
Trust's interests in the Trust Corpus and the proceeds thereof. In addition,
neither the Seller nor the Trust Depositor shall change its place of business
(within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) from the location specified in
Section 12.09 below unless it has first taken such action as is advisable or
necessary to preserve and protect the Trust's interest in the Trust Corpus.
Promptly after taking any of the foregoing actions, the Servicer shall deliver
to the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements or
amendments necessary to preserve and protect the interests of the Trustee in
the Trust Corpus have been filed, and reciting the details of such filing.
Section 4.04. Chief Executive Office. During the term of this
Agreement, the Trust Depositor will maintain its chief executive office in one
of the States of the United States, except Louisiana, Tennessee, Colorado,
Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah or Wyoming.
Section 4.05. Costs and Expenses. The Servicer agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and disbursements in connection with the perfection and the
maintenance of perfection, as against all third parties, of the Trust's right,
title and interest in and to the Contracts (including, without limitation, the
security interest in the Motorcycles granted thereby).
ARTICLE V
SERVICING OF CONTRACTS
Section 5.01. Responsibility for Contract Administration. The Servicer
will have the sole obligation to manage, administer, service and make
collections on the Contracts and perform or cause to be performed all
contractual and customary undertakings of the holder of the Contracts to the
Obligor. The Trustee, at the written request of a Servicing Officer, shall
furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or
appropriate in the opinion of the Trustee to enable the Servicer to carry out
its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer is hereby
appointed the servicer hereunder until such time as any Service Transfer may be
effected under Article VII.
Section 5.02. Standard of Care. In managing, administering, servicing
and making collections on the Contracts pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer
will exercise that degree of skill and care consistent with the skill and care
that the Servicer exercises with respect to similar
-31-
contracts serviced by the
Servicer, and, in any event no less degree of skill and care than would be
exercised by a prudent servicer of motorcycle conditional sales contracts;
provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not
release or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance on any Contract.
Section 5.03. Records. The Servicer shall, during the period it
is servicer hereunder, maintain such books of account and other records as will
enable the Trustee to determine the status of each Contract.
Section 5.04. Inspection. (a) At all times during the term hereof, the
Servicer shall afford the Trustee and its respective authorized agents
reasonable access during normal business hours to the Servicer's records
relating to the Contracts and will cause its personnel to assist in any
examination of such records by the Trustee, or such authorized agents and allow
copies of the same to be made. The examination referred to in this Section will
be conducted in a manner which does not unreasonably interfere with the
Servicer's normal operations or customer or employee relations. Without
otherwise limiting the scope of the examination the Trustee may, using generally
accepted audit procedures, verify the status of each Contract and review the
Computer Disk and records relating thereto for conformity to Monthly Reports
prepared pursuant to Article VI and compliance with the standards represented to
exist as to each Contract in this Agreement.
(b) At all times during the term hereof, the Servicer shall keep
available a copy of the List of Contracts at its principal executive office for
inspection by Certificateholders.
Section 5.05. Trust Accounts. (a) On or before the Closing Date, the
Trust Depositor shall establish the Collection Account and the Special
Distribution Subaccount therein, each in the name of the Trustee for the benefit
of the Certificateholders. The Trustee is hereby required to ensure that each of
the Trust Accounts is established and maintained as an Eligible Account.
(b) The Trustee shall deposit (or the Servicer shall deposit, with
respect to payments by or on behalf of the Obligors received directly by the
Servicer), without deposit into any intervening account, into the Collection
Account as promptly as practical (but in any case not later than the second
Business Day following the receipt thereof):
(i) With respect to principal and interest on the Contracts
(as well as Late Payment Penalty Fees and Extension Fees) received on
or after the Initial Cutoff Date or Subsequent Cutoff Date, as
applicable (which for the purpose of this paragraph (b)(i) shall
include those monies in the Lockbox Account allocable to principal and
interest on the Contracts), all such amounts received by the Trustee or
Servicer;
(ii) All Net Liquidation Proceeds related to the
Contracts;
-32-
(iii) The aggregate of the Repurchase Prices for Contracts
repurchased by the Seller as described in Section 8.06;
(iv) All Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to
Section 8.03(a);
(v) All amounts paid by the Seller in connection with an
optional repurchase of the Contracts described in Section 8.08;
(vi) All amounts realized in respect of Carrying Charges
transferred from the Interest Reserve Account as contemplated in
Section 8.03(b); and
(vii) All amounts received in respect of interest, dividends,
gains, income and earnings on investments of funds in the Trust
Accounts as contemplated in the last sentence of Section 5.05(d)
hereof.
(c) The Trustee shall, if amounts remain on deposit in the Pre-Funding
Account at the expiration of the Funding Period, make demand, immediately upon
expiration of the Funding Period, upon the Trust Depositor and the Collateral
Agent for the payment of Liquidated Damages as contemplated in Section 2.02 of
the Deposit Agreement and Section 3.03 of the Security Agreement. The Trustee
shall deposit the amounts received from the Deposit Collateral Agent in respect
of such Liquidated Damages into the Special Distribution Subaccount in the
Collection Account to be distributed on the next upcoming Payment Date as
contemplated in Section 8.04(b) hereof.
(d) If the Servicer so directs, in writing, the Trustee shall in its
capacity as Trustee hereunder, invest the amounts in the Trust Accounts in
Eligible Investments that mature not later than one Business Day prior to the
next succeeding Payment Date. Once such funds are invested, the Trustee shall
not change the investment of such funds. Any loss on such investments shall be
deposited in the applicable Trust Account by the Servicer out of its own funds
immediately as realized. Funds in the Trust Accounts not so invested must be
insured to the extent permitted by law by the Bank Insurance Fund or the Savings
Association Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Subject
to the restrictions herein, the Trustee may purchase an Eligible Investment from
itself or an Affiliate. Any investment of funds in the Trust Accounts shall be
made in Eligible Investments (a) held in the possession of the Trustee or
maintained with another institution as an Eligible Account with respect to which
such institution has noted the Trustee's interest therein on its books and
records and a confirmation of the Trustee's interest has been sent to the
Trustee by such institution, and (b) with respect to Eligible Investments
comprised of securities, the Trustee has purchased such securities for value in
good faith without notice of any adverse claim thereto, and which securities (A)
if certificated and in bearer form, have been delivered to the Trustee, or in
registered form, have been issued or endorsed to the Trustee or in blank, (B) if
uncertificated, the transfer of which is registered on the books of the issuer
thereof, or (C) have been transferred (x)
-33-
through acquisition or possession by a
financial intermediary of a certificated security specially endorsed to or
issued in the name of the Trustee, or (y) through confirmation by a financial
intermediary (not a clearing corporation) of the Trustee's purchase of a
certificated security and appropriate identification of its interest in the
records of such intermediary, or (z) through the making of appropriate entries
to the Trustee's (or its designee's) account on the books of a clearing
corporation in accordance with Section 8-320 of the applicable Uniform
Commercial Code. Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Trustee shall have
sole control over each such investment and the income thereon, and any
certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment, if any, shall
be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together with each document
of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the
Trustee in a manner which complies with this Section 5.05(d). All interest,
dividends, gains upon sale and other income from, or earnings on, investments
of funds in the Trust Accounts shall be deposited in the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 5.05(b)(ii) and distributed on the next Payment Date
pursuant to Section 8.04(b).
Section 5.06. Enforcement. (a) The Servicer will, consistent with
Section 5.02, act with respect to the Contracts in such manner as will maximize
the receipt of principal and interest on such Contracts. However, nothing
provided herein will give the Servicer the power to vary the investment of the
Certificateholders in such a way as to cause the trust not to be treated as an
investment trust under the regulations promulgated under Code Section 7701.
(b) The Servicer may ▇▇▇ to enforce or collect upon Contracts, in its
own name, if possible, or as agent for the Trustee. If the Servicer elects to
commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Contract, the act of commencement shall
be deemed to be an automatic assignment of the Contract to the Servicer for
purposes of collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal
proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce a Contract on the ground
that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the
Contract, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall, at the Servicer's expense,
take such steps as the Servicer deems reasonably necessary to enforce the
Contract, including bringing suit in its name or the names of the
Certificateholders.
(c) The Servicer shall exercise any rights of recourse against third
persons that exist with respect to any Contract in accordance with the
Servicer's usual practice. In exercising recourse rights, the Servicer is
authorized on the Trustee's behalf to reassign the defaulted Contract or the
related Motorcycle to the person against whom recourse exists at the price set
forth in the document creating the recourse; provided, however, the Servicer in
exercising recourse against any third persons as described in the immediately
preceding sentence shall do so in such manner as to maximize the aggregate
recovery with respect to the Contract; and provided further, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing the Servicer in its capacity as such may exercise
such recourse only if such Contract was not required to be repurchased by the
Seller pursuant to the Transfer and Sale Agreement or was required to be
repurchased by the Seller and the Seller has defaulted on such repurchase
obligation.
-34-
(d) The Servicer will not permit any rescission or cancellation
of any Contract due to the acts or omissions of the Servicer.
(e) The Servicer may grant to the Obligor on any Contract an extension
of payments due under such Contract, provided that (i) the extension period is
limited to 45 days, (ii) the Obligor has been in good standing for the previous
twelve-month period, (iii) such extension is consistent with the Servicer's
customary servicing procedures and is consistent with Section 5.02, (iv) such
extension does not extend the maturity date of the Contract beyond the latest
maturity date of any of the Contracts as of the Initial Cutoff Date (or, if a
transfer of Subsequent Contracts to the Trust occurs, beyond the latest
maturity date of such Subsequent Contracts) and (v) the aggregate Principal
Balances of Contracts which have had extensions granted does not exceed more
than 3.00% of the aggregate of the Class A Initial Certificate Balance and the
Class B Initial Certificate Balance.
(f) The Servicer will not add to the outstanding Principal Balance of
any Contract the premium of any physical damage or other individual insurance on
a Motorcycle securing such Contract it obtains on behalf of the Obligor under
the terms of such Contract, but may create a separate Obligor obligation with
respect to such premium if and as provided by the Contract.
(g) If the Servicer shall have repossessed a Motorcycle on behalf of
the Trust, the Servicer shall either (i) maintain at its expense physical damage
insurance with respect to such Motorcycle, or (ii) indemnify the Trust against
any damage to such Motorcycle prior to resale or other disposition. The Servicer
shall not allow such repossessed Motorcycles to be used in an active trade or

accordance with the Servicer's normal business practices.
Section 5.07. Trustee to Cooperate. Upon payment in full on any
Contract, the Servicer will notify the Trustee and the Trust Depositor on the
next succeeding Payment Date by certification of a Servicing Officer (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
in connection with such payments which are required to be deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.05 have been so deposited) and shall
(if the Servicer is not then in possession of the Contracts and Contract Files)
request delivery of the Contract and Contract File to the Servicer. Upon receipt
of such delivery and request, the Trustee shall promptly release or cause to be
released such Contract and Contract File to the Servicer. Upon receipt of such
Contract and Contract File, each of the Trust Depositor and the Servicer is
authorized to execute an instrument in satisfaction of such Contract and to do
such other acts and execute such other documents as the Servicer deems necessary
to discharge the Obligor thereunder and eliminate the security interest in the
Motorcycle related thereto. The Servicer shall determine when a Contract has
been paid in full; to the extent that insufficient payments are received on a
Contract credited by the Servicer as prepaid or paid in full and satisfied, the
shortfall shall be paid by the Servicer out of its own funds. From time to time
as appropriate for servicing and repossession in connection with any Contract,
if the Servicer is not then in
-35-
possession of the Contracts and Contract Files,
the Trustee shall, upon written request of a Servicing Officer and delivery to
the Trustee of a receipt signed by such Servicing Officer, cause the original
Contract and the related Contract File to be released to the Servicer and shall
execute such documents as the Servicer shall deem reasonably necessary to the
prosecution of any such proceedings. Such receipt shall obligate the Servicer to
return the original Contract and the related Contract File to the Trustee when
the need by the Servicer has ceased unless the Contract shall be repurchased as
described in Section 8.09. Upon request of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee
shall perform such other acts as reasonably requested by the Servicer and
otherwise cooperate with the Servicer in the enforcement of the
Certificateholders' rights and remedies with respect to Contracts.
Section 5.08. Costs and Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred by
the Servicer in carrying out its duties hereunder, fees and expenses of
accountants and payments of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with
the enforcement of Contracts (including enforcement of defaulted Contracts and
repossessions of Motorcycles securing such Contracts when such Contracts are not
repurchased pursuant to Section 8.06) and all other fees and expenses not
expressly stated hereunder to be for the account of the Trust shall be paid by
the Servicer and the Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement hereunder.
Section 5.09. Maintenance of Security Interests in Motorcycles. The
Servicer shall take such steps as are necessary to maintain continuous
perfection and the first priority of the security interest created by each
Contract in the related Motorcycle. The Trustee hereby authorizes the Servicer
to take such steps as are necessary to perfect such security interest and to
maintain the first priority thereof in the event of a relocation of a Motorcycle
or for any other reason.

solely from the monies and in accordance with the priorities described in
Section 8.04(b). No recourse may be had to the Seller, Trust Depositor, Trustee,
Servicer, or any of their respective Affiliates in the event that amounts
available under Section 8.04(b) are insufficient for payment of the Trustee Fee
and the Monthly Servicing Fee.
Section 8.03. Advances; Realization of Carrying Charge. (a) On each
Determination Date, the Servicer shall compute the amount of Delinquent
Interest, if any, on the Contracts for the immediately preceding Due Period. Not

related Due Period and (ii) the amount of the Advance, if any, made by the
Servicer in respect of such Delinquent Interest pursuant to this Section 8.03.
If the amount of such Advance is less than the amount of the Delinquent
Interest, the relevant Monthly Report shall be accompanied by a certificate of a
Servicing Officer setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the
determination by the Servicer that the portion of the Delinquent Interest not
advanced would become an Uncollectible Advance. By each Determination Date, the
Servicer shall determine the amount of prior unreimbursed Advances for which it
desires to be reimbursed pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.03 (such
amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"). The Servicer shall be entitled to be
reimbursed for any outstanding Advance with respect to a Contract by means of a
first priority withdrawal from the Collection Account of such Reimbursement
Amount as provided in Section 8.04(b)(i).
(b) The Servicer shall determine no later than 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on the second Business Day prior to a Payment Date the Carrying

the Trustee shall, pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, make demand upon the Trust

to the extent of) the amount then on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account.
Such demand shall be effected by giving the notice to the Collateral Agent

(b) On each Payment Date, the Trustee will, based on the information in
the Monthly Report, distribute as a Special Distribution from the Special
Distribution Subaccount (a) to the Holders of the Class A Certificateholders,
pro rata, in an amount equal to the Class A Percentage multiplied by the amount
in the Special Distribution Subaccount and (b) to the Class B

distribute the following amounts in the following order of priority:

the Servicer;
(ii) from Available Interest, the Servicing Fee for the
related Due Period to the Servicer;
-44-
(iii) from Available Interest, the Trustee's Fee for the
related Due Period to the Trustee;
(iv) to the Class A Certificateholders of record, from
Available Interest, an amount equal to the Class A Interest
Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such Available
Interest is insufficient, the Class A Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall first, from the Class B Percentage of Available
Principal and second, if such amounts are still insufficient, from
monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund;
(v) to the Class B Certificateholders of record, from
Available Interest, an amount equal to the Class B Interest
Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such Available
Interest is insufficient, the Class B Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall from monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund;
(vi) to the Class A Certificateholders of record, from
Available Principal, an amount equal to the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such Available
Principal is insufficient, the Class A Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall first, from Available Interest, and second, if such
amounts are still insufficient, from monies on deposit in the Reserve
Fund;
(vii) to the Class B Certificateholders of record, from
Available Principal, an amount equal to the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such Available
Principal is insufficient, the Class B Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall first, from Available Interest, and second, if such
amounts are still insufficient, from monies on deposit in the Reserve
Fund; and
(viii) any remaining Available Funds after the payments
described in clauses (i) through (vii) above shall be paid to the
Reserve Agent for deposit in the Reserve Fund.
Any monies intended for the payment of Class A Distributable Amounts or
Class B Distributable Amounts but which remain unclaimed by Certificateholders
for a period of two years after the Final Scheduled Payment Date shall, upon the
written request of the Trust Depositor, be paid to the Trust Depositor, and such
Certificateholders shall thereafter look only to the Trust Depositor for
payment, and then only to the extent of the amounts so received without interest
thereon; provided, however, that within thirty days prior to the expiration of
the two-year period mentioned above, the Trustee, before being required to make
any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Trust Depositor, cause to be
published in a financial journal a notice that after a date named therein said
monies will be returned to the Trust Depositor.
Section 8.05. Withdrawal from Reserve Fund to Cover a Shortfall. The
Trustee shall determine no later than 10:00 a.m., Chicago, Illinois time, on the
Payment Date (but after
-45-
making, and taking into account, the determination,
demand and transfer of funds contemplated in Section 8.03(b) above) whether
there exists a Shortfall with respect to the upcoming Payment Date. In the event
that the Trustee determines that there exists a Shortfall, the Trustee shall
furnish to the Reserve Agent no later than 12:00 noon, Chicago, Illinois time,
on such Payment Date a written notice specifying the Shortfall for such Payment
Date and directing the Reserve Agent to remit monies in respect of such
Shortfall (to the extent of funds available to be so distributed pursuant to the
Reserve Fund Agreement) to the Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account.
Upon receipt of any such funds the Trustee shall deposit such amounts into the
Collection Account.
Section 8.06. Repurchases of Contracts for Breach of Representations
and Warranties. Upon a discovery by the Servicer, the Trust Depositor or the
Trustee of a breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller as set forth
in Exhibit K hereto or as made in any Subsequent Purchase Agreement relating to
Subsequent Contracts that materially adversely affects the Trust's interest in
such Contract (without regard to the benefits of the Reserve Fund),
the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice to the other
parties provided, that the Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to inquire
or to investigate the breach by the Seller of any of such representations or
warranties. The Seller, as provided in the Transfer and Sale Agreement and in
accordance with this Section 8.06, shall repurchase a Contract at its Repurchase
Price, two Business Days prior to the first Determination Date after the Seller
becomes aware, or should have become aware, or receives written notice from the
Trustee, the Servicer or the Trust Depositor of any breach of a representation
or warranty of the Seller set forth in Article III of the Transfer and Sale
Agreement that materially adversely affects such Contract or the Trust's
interest in such Contract and which breach has not been cured; provided,
however, that with respect to any Contract incorrectly described on the List of
Contracts with respect to unpaid Principal Balance which the Seller would
otherwise be required to repurchase under the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the
Seller may, in lieu of repurchasing such Contract, deposit in the Collection
Account not later than one Business Day after such Determination Date cash in an
amount sufficient to cure such deficiency or discrepancy, and provided further
that with respect to a breach of representation or warranty relating to the
Contracts in the aggregate and not to any particular Contract the Seller may
select Contracts (without adverse selection) to repurchase such that had such
Contracts not been included as part of the Trust Corpus there would have been no
breach of such representation or warranty; provided further that (a) the failure
of a Contract File to be complete or of the original certificate of title and
evidence of recordation of such certificate to be included in the Contract File
as of 180 days after the Closing Date (or Subsequent Transfer Date, in the case
of Subsequent Contracts) or (b) the failure to maintain perfection of the
security interest in the Motorcycle securing a Contract in accordance with
Section 5.09, shall be deemed to be a breach materially and adversely affecting
the Trust's interest in the Contract or in the related Contracts.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligation of the
Seller under the Transfer and Sale Agreement and described in this Section 8.06
shall not terminate or be deemed released by any party hereto upon a Service
-46-
Transfer pursuant to Article VII. The repurchase obligation described in this
Section 8.06 is in no way to be satisfied with monies in the Reserve Fund.
Section 8.07. Reassignment of Repurchased Contracts. Upon receipt by
the Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account of the Repurchase Price as
described in Section 8.06 or Section 8.08, and upon receipt of a certificate of
a Servicing Officer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, the Trustee shall
assign to the Seller all of the Trust's right, title and interest in the
repurchased Contract without recourse, representation or warranty, except as to
the absence of liens, charges or encumbrances created by or arising as a result
of actions of the Trustee.
Section 8.08. Seller's Repurchase Option. As provided in the Transfer
and Sale Agreement, on written notice to the Trustee at least 20 days prior to a
Payment Date, and provided that aggregate of the Class A Certificate Balance and
Class B Certificate Balance is then less than 10% of the Class A Initial
Certificate Balance and Class B Initial Certificate Balance, and provided a
valuation letter is delivered as required in Section 5.02 of the Transfer and
Sale Agreement, the Seller may (but is not required to) repurchase on that
Payment Date all outstanding Contracts at a price equal to the aggregate of the
Class A and Class B Certificate Balance on the previous Payment Date plus the
aggregate of the Class A Interest Distributable Amount and the Class B Interest
Distributable Amount for the current Payment Date thereon, the Reimbursement
Amount (if any) as well as accrued and unpaid Monthly Servicing Fees and
Trustee Fees to the date of such repurchase. Such price is to be deposited in
the Collection Account one Business Day before such Payment Date, against the
Trustee's release of the Contracts and the Contract Files to the Seller in the
manner described in Section 8.07 above.

Certificates to be executed on behalf of the
-47-
Trust by an authorized Trust
officer, and authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the
Trust Depositor, without further corporate action by the Trust Depositor, in
authorized denominations. No Certificate shall entitle its Holder to any benefit
under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall appear on
such Certificate a certificate of authentication, executed by the Trustee by
manual signature. Such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that
such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All
Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
Section 9.03 Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Trustee
shall cause to be kept a register (the "Certificate Register") in which, subject
to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide
for the registration of Certificates and the registration of transfers of
Certificates. The Trustee shall be the initial "Certificate Registrar" for the
purpose of registering Certificates and transfers of Certificates as herein
provided. Upon the resignation of any Certificate Registrar, the Trustee shall
promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment,
assume the duties of Certificate Registrar.
If a Person other than the Trustee is appointed as Certificate
Registrar, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice of the appointment of
such Certificate Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location,
of the Certificate Register, and the Trustee shall have the right to inspect the
Certificate Register at all reasonable times, to obtain copies thereof and to
rely conclusively upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Certificate
Registrar by an authorized officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders and the principal amounts and number of the Certificates.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the
office or agency of the Trustee to be maintained as provided in Section 6.08,
the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver to the designated transferee
or transferees, one or more new Certificates in any authorized denominations of
a like aggregate principal amount.
At the option of the Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged
for other Certificates in any authorized denominations of a like aggregate
principal amount. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the
Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver to the Certificateholder the
Certificates that the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive.
All Certificates issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates shall be the valid obligations of the Trust, evidencing the same
interest in the Trust and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as
the Certificates surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
(b) Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of
transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form
-48-
satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by, the
holder thereof or such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, with such
signature guaranteed by a commercial bank or trust company located or having a
correspondent located in [________] or the city in which the Corporate Trust
Office is located or by a member firm of a national securities exchange, and
such other documents as the Trustee may require.
(c) No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Trustee may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or
exchange of Certificates.
Section 9.04 Certain Transfer Restrictions. [RESERVED]
Section 9.05 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 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 has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate
under this Section, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership of a
beneficial interest in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the
lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 9.06 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a
Certificate for registration of transfer, the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered in
the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of
receiving distributions pursuant to Section 8.04 and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be bound
by any notice to the contrary.
Section 9.07 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses.
The Certificate Registrar will furnish to the Trustee, the Trust Depositor and
the Servicer, within five days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a
request therefor from the Trustee or the Certificateholder in writing, a list,
in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses
of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If Class A
Certificateholders or Class B Certificateholders with aggregate Fractional
Interests representing 25% or more of the Class A Certificate Balance or Class B
Certificate Balance, respectively,
-49-
(hereinafter referred to as "Applicants")
apply in writing to the Trustee, and such application states that the Applicants
desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights
under this Agreement or under the Certificates and is accompanied by a copy of
the communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee
shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford
such Applicants access during normal business hours to the most recent list of
Certificateholders held by the Trustee. If such list is as of a date more than
90 days prior to the date of receipt of such Applicants' request, the Trustee
shall promptly request from the Certificate Registrar a current list as provided
above, and shall afford such Applicants access to such list promptly upon
receipt. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees
with the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee that none of the Trust Depositor,
the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of
the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders
Section 9.08 Book-Entry Certificates. Unless the Holder thereof
requests that Class A Certificates be delivered in definitive, fully registered
form ("Definitive Certificates"), the Class A Certificates, upon original
issuance, will be issued in the form of one or more typewritten Certificates
representing Book-Entry Certificates, to be delivered to the Depository Trust
Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by or on behalf of the Trust. The
Book-Entry Certificates shall be registered initially on the Certificate
Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency.
With respect to the Book-Entry Certificates:
(1) the provisions of this Section shall be in full force and
effect;
(2) the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Registrar and the
Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes
(including the making of distributions on the Book-Entry
Certificates) as the sole Holder of such Book-Entry
Certificates and shall have no obligation to the related
Certificate Owner;
(3) to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict
with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of
this Section shall control;
(4) the rights of such Certificate Owners shall be exercised only
through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such Certificate
Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency
Participants pursuant to the Depository Agreement. The initial
Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the
Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit
distributions of principal and interest on the Book-Entry
Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants; and
(5) whenever this Agreement requires or permits actions to be
taken based upon instructions or directions of
Certificateholders evidencing a specified percentage
-50-
of the Certificate Balance, the Clearing Agency shall be
deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that
it has received instructions to such effect from Certificate
Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or
representing, respectively, such required percentage of the
beneficial interest in the Book-Entry Certificates and has
delivered such instructions in writing to the Trustee.
Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall have any responsibility
to monitor or restrict the transfer of beneficial ownership in any Certificate
an interest in which is transferable through the facilities of the Depository.
Section 9.09 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other
communication to Holders of the Book-Entry Certificates is required under this
Agreement, the Trustee and the Servicer shall give all such notices and
communications specified herein to be given to Holders of Certificates to the
Clearing Agency.

-51-

receipts, general corporation, personal property, privilege or license taxes
(but not including any federal, state or other taxes arising out of the creation
of the Trust and the issuance of the Certificates) and costs, expenses and
reasonable counsel fees in defending against the same, whether arising by reason

Section 10.04 shall not relate to any actions of any subsequent Servicer after a
Service Transfer) and any payment of the amount owing under, or any repurchase
by the Seller of, any such Contract and shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.
Section 10.05. Operation of Indemnities. Indemnification under this
Article X shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel and expenses of litigation. If the Servicer has made any indemnity
payments to the Trustee pursuant to this Article X and the Trustee thereafter

collected to the Servicer, without interest.
ARTICLE XI
THE TRUSTEE
Section 11.01. Duties of Trustee. The Trustee, prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Termination and after the curing of all Events of Termination
which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties
as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. If an Event of Termination has
occurred (which has not been cured), the Trustee shall exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of
care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the
Trustee which are specifically required to
-52-
be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform as to form to the requirements of this Agreement and shall promptly
notify the Servicer and each Certificateholder of any failure of any of the
foregoing to so conform.
Subject to Section 11.03, no provision of this Agreement shall be
construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action,
its own negligent failure to act (including actions or omissions within its
control resulting in the failure of Certificateholders to receive timely payment
of either the Class A Distributable Amount or the Class B Distributable Amount)
or its own misconduct; provided, however, that:
(a) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Termination, and
after the curing of all such Events of Termination which may have
occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations
as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee
and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the
Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Agreement;
(b) The Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment
made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless it
shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts;
(c) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to
any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith
in accordance with the direction of Certificateholders with aggregate
Fractional Interests representing 25% or more of the Trust relating to
the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee, under this Agreement; and
(d) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any
event referred to in Section 7.01 unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office obtains actual knowledge of such
event or the Trustee receives written notice of such event from the
Seller, the Trust Depositor, the Servicer or the Certificateholders
with aggregate Fractional Interests representing 25% or more of the
Trust.
The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it,
provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall relieve the Trustee of
the obligations, upon the
-53-
occurrence of an Event of Termination (which has not
been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his own affairs.
None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event
require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance
of, any of the obligations of the Seller, the Trust Depositor or the Servicer
under this Agreement.
Without limiting the generality of this Section 11.01, the Trustee
shall have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing or depositing of this
Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement
evidencing a security interest in the Motorcycles or to see to the maintenance
of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any re-recording, refiling
or redepositing of any thereof, (ii) to see to any insurance of the Motorcycles
or Obligors or to effect or maintain any such insurance, (iii) to see to the
payment or discharge of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge or any
lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied
against any part of the Trust, (iv) to confirm or verify the contents of any
reports or certificates delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement
believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper party or parties, or (v) to inspect the Motorcycles at any time or
ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the Seller's
or the Servicer's representations, warranties or covenants or the Servicer's
duties and obligations as Servicer and as custodian of the Contract Files under
this Agreement.
Section 11.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 11.01 and provided the Paying Agent shall also
benefit from the provisions of this Section 11.02:
(a) The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining
from acting upon any resolution, Officer's Certificate, certificate of a
Servicing Officer, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or
other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties;
(b) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any opinion of any counsel
for the Seller, the Trust Depositor or the Servicer shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or
omitted by the Trustee hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such
opinion of counsel;
(c) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute, conduct or
defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or
direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee
-54-
reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
which may be incurred therein or thereby; provided, however, that nothing
contained herein shall relieve the Trustee of the obligations, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Termination (which has not been cured), to exercise
such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the
same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise
or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;
(d) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Termination and after the
curing of all Events of Termination which may have occurred, the Trustee shall
not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless
requested in writing so to do by Certificateholders with aggregate Fractional
Interests representing 25% or more of the Trust; provided, however, that if the
payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is,
in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the
security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require
reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or liability as a condition to
so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by
the Servicer or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be reimbursed by the Servicer
upon demand; and
(e) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys or co-trustees or a custodian and shall not be liable for any acts or
omissions of such agents, attorneys or co-trustees or custodians if appointed by
it with due care hereunder; provided, however, if the Servicer is acting as
custodian, the Servicer is deemed by all parties to have been appointed with due
care.
Section 11.03. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Contracts. The
Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the recitals contained
herein or in the Certificates (other than the Trustee's execution thereof). The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Agreement, the Trust or of the Certificates (other than its execution thereof)
or of any Contract, Contract File or related document. The Trustee shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Servicer or the Trust Depositor of
funds paid to the Trust Depositor in consideration of conveyance of the
Contracts to the Trust by the Trust Depositor or deposited in or withdrawn from
the Collection Account by the Servicer.
Section 11.04. Trustee May Own Certificates. The Trustee in its
individual or other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates
representing less than all the beneficial interest in the Trust with the same
rights as it would have if it were not Trustee.
Section 11.05. Rights to Direct Trustee and to Waive Events of
Termination. Certificateholders with aggregate Fractional Interests representing
25% or more of the Trust shall have the right to direct the time, method, and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
-55-
available to the Trustee under
this Agreement or any Transaction Document assigned to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee under this Agreement or
any Transaction Document assigned to the Trustee; provided, however, that,
subject to Section 11.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow
any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the
action so directed may not lawfully be taken, or if the Trustee in good faith
shall, by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee,
determine that the proceedings so directed would be illegal or involve the
Trustee in personal liability or (in the case of directions by the
Certificateholders) be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Certificateholders
not parties to such direction; and provided further that nothing in this
Agreement shall impair the right of the Trustee to take any action deemed proper
by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such direction by the
Certificateholders. Certificateholders with aggregate Fractional Interests
representing 51% or more of the Trust may waive any past Event of Termination
hereunder and its consequences, and upon any such waiver, such Event of
Termination shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been cured for
every purpose of this Agreement; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Event of Termination or impair any right consequent thereon.
The Trustee shall have no liability for acting upon the direction of the
Certificateholders.
Section 11.06. The Servicer to Pay Trustee's Expenses. The Servicer
agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss,
liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the Trustee's
part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this trust and its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise
or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.
This Section 11.06 shall be for the benefit of the Trustee in its
capacities as Trustee, Paying Agent, and Certificate Registrar hereunder, and
shall not terminate or be deemed released upon a Service Transfer pursuant to
Article VII and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 11.07. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee
hereunder shall at all times be a financial institution organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or any state, authorized
under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, whose long term Unsecured
debt is rated at least Baa3 by ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ and shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000 or shall be a member of a bank holding system
the aggregate combined capital and surplus of which is $50,000,000 and subject
to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority, provided that the
Trustee's separate capital and surplus shall at all times be at least the amount
required by Section 310(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. If
such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of a supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section 11.07, the combined capital and surplus of such Person
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any
-56-
time the Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.07,
the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 11.08.
Section 11.08. Resignation or Removal of Trustee. The Trustee may at
any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving
written notice thereof to the Servicer with a copy to the Trust Depositor, the
Seller, and the Certificateholders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation,
the Servicer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to each of the
Trust Depositor, the Seller, and the Certificateholders and one copy to the
successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed and
shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 11.07 and shall fail to resign after written
request therefor by the Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee shall be legally
unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of
the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall
take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Servicer may
remove the Trustee. If the Servicer shall have removed the Trustee under the
authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Servicer shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed, the Trust Depositor and
the Seller and one copy to the successor trustee.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 11.08 shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as
provided in Section 11.09.
Any resigning or removed Trustee shall be entitled to payment of all
Trustee's Fees earned and reimbursement for all expenses incurred by it up to
the date of resignation. All indemnification obligations of the Servicer and the
Seller shall survive such resignation or removal.
Section 11.09. Successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed as
provided in Section 11.08 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Servicer, the Trust Depositor and to its predecessor Trustee, with a copy to the
Certificateholders, an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become
effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as Trustee. The predecessor Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to the successor Trustee the Contracts and the Contract Files (if any such
Contracts and Contract Files are in the Trustee's possession) and any related
documents
-57-
and statements held by it hereunder; and, if the Contracts are then
held by a custodian pursuant to a custodial agreement, the predecessor Trustee
and the custodian shall amend such custodial agreement to make the successor
Trustee the successor to the predecessor Trustee thereunder; and the Servicer,
the Trust Depositor and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and
certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee all such rights,
powers, duties and obligations.
No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 11.09 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall
be eligible under the provisions of Section 11.07.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in
this Section 11.09, the Servicer shall cause notice of the succession of such
Trustee hereunder to be mailed to each Rating Agency and to each
Certificateholder at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register. If
the Servicer fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such
notice to be mailed at the expense of the Servicer.
Section 11.10. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any Person into
which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding
to the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the
Trustee hereunder, provided such Person shall be eligible under the provisions
of Section 11.07, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. Upon such occasion, the Servicer shall cause notice thereof to
be mailed to each Rating Agency and each Certificateholder. If the Servicer
fails to mail such notice within ten days after such succession, the successor
Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Servicer
with a copy to each Certificateholder.
Section 11.11. Tax Returns.
(a) The Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall request that the
Trustee furnish the Servicer with all such information in the Trustee's
possession as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation of
all tax returns of the Trust and the Trustee shall, upon such request, furnish
such information and execute such returns; and
(b) As directed by the Servicer in writing, the Trustee shall take all
action specified in such writing relating to (i) certain withholding
requirements applicable to non-U.S. persons; (ii) backup withholding
requirements; and (iii) certain taxpayer certification requirements relating to
clauses (i) and (ii) above.
-58-
Section 11.12. Obligor Claims. In connection with any offset defenses,
or affirmative claims for recovery, asserted in legal actions brought by
Obligors under one or more Contracts based upon provisions therein complying
with, or upon other rights or remedies arising from, any legal requirements
applicable to the Contracts, including, without limitation, the Federal Trade
Commission's Trade Regulation Rule Concerning Preservation of Consumers' Claims
and Defenses (16 C.F.R. ss.433) as amended from time to time:
(a) The Trustee is not, and shall not be deemed to be, either
in any individual capacity, as trustee hereunder or otherwise, a
creditor, or a joint venturer with or an Affiliate of, or acting in
concert or cooperation with, any seller of Motorcycles, in the
arrangement, origination or making of Contracts. The Trustee is the
holder of the Contracts only as trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders, and not as a principal or in any individual or
personal capacity;
(b) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for or
obligated to pay Obligors any affirmative claims asserted thereby, or
responsible to Certificateholders for any offset defense amounts
applied against Contract payments pursuant to such legal actions;
(c) The Trustee will pay, solely from available Trust monies,
affirmative claims for recovery by Obligors only pursuant to final
judicial orders or judgments, or judicially approved settlement
agreements, resulting from such legal actions; and
(d) The Servicer has agreed to indemnify, hold harmless and
defend the Trustee and Certificateholders from and against any and all
liability, loss, costs and expenses of the Trustee and
Certificateholders resulting from any affirmative claims for recovery
asserted or collected by Obligors under the Contracts. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the obligation of the Servicer
described in this Section 11.12(d) shall not terminate or be deemed
released upon a Service Transfer pursuant to Article VII and shall
survive termination of this Agreement.
Section 11.13 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of
meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction having authority over the
Trust, the Contracts or the Obligors, the Servicer and Trustee acting jointly
shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint
one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees,
jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or
any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity,
such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other
provisions of this Section 11.13, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and
trusts as the Servicer and the 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, or in case an Event of Termination shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make
such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
-59-
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section
11.07 hereunder and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of
co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 11.09
hereof; provided, however, that notice of appointment of any co-trustee or
separate trustee shall be provided to Moody's, and any co-trustee or separate
trustee shall have a long-term debt rating from Moody's of Baa3 or higher.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee
pursuant to this Section 11.13, all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee and such co-trustee or separate trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or
as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the 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 Trust or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by
such co-trustee or separate trustee at the direction of the Trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to each of the then co-trustees and separate trustees,
as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
co-trustee or separate trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article XI. Each co-trustee and separate 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 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
Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
Any co-trustee or separate trustee may, at any time, constitute the
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 co-trustee or separate 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
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or
successor trustee.

Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee, makes the following
representations and warranties:
(a) The Trustee is duly organized and validly existing as an

obligation of the Trustee, enforceable in accordance with its terms,

this Agreement, or (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that
might materially and adversely affect the performance by the Trustee
of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this

the Agreement or in any document issued in connection with the sale of
the Certificates or in the Certificates other than the Trustee's
certificate of authentication.

payable to the Certificateholders in respect of Class A Distributable Amounts
and Class B Distributable
-62-
Amounts and payment of all other amounts owed to the
Certificateholders shall be paid to the Seller.

specifically provided herein, whenever Certificateholder approval,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action is required

aggregate Fractional Interests representing 51% or more of the Trust.
(b) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by
Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments
of substantially similar tenor signed by such Certificateholders in person or by
an agent duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments
are delivered to the Trustee and, where required, to the Servicer. Proof of
execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall
be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement and (subject to Section 11.01)
conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Servicer, the Trust Depositor and the
Seller if made in the manner provided in this Section 12.05.
(c) The fact and date of the execution by any Certificateholder of any
such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the
Trustee deems sufficient.
(d) The ownership of Certificates shall be proved by the

(e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other act by a Certificateholder shall bind every holder of every

-63-
Section 12.07. Assignment or Delegation by Trust Depositor. Except as
specifically authorized hereunder, the Trust Depositor may not convey and assign
or delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder absent the prior written
consent of 100% of the Class A Certificateholders and the Class B
Certificateholders, and any attempt to do so without such consent shall be void.
Section 12.08. Amendment. (a) This Agreement may be amended from time
to time by the Servicer, the Trust Depositor and the Trustee, without the
consent of any of the Certificateholders, to correct manifest error, to cure any
ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein or therein which may
be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or therein, as the case may be,
or to add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising
under this Agreement which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Agreement; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an
opinion of Counsel for the Trust Depositor, adversely affect the interests of
any Certificateholder.
(b) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Servicer, the Trust Depositor and the Trustee, with the consent of
Certificateholders with aggregate Fractional Interests representing 66-2/3% or
more of each Class voting as a separate Class, 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
Certificateholders; and any Event of Termination may be waived by the
Certificateholders with aggregate Fractional Interests representing 51% of the
Trust; provided, however, that no such amendment or waiver described above shall
(a) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, collections of
payments on the Contracts or distributions which are required to be made on any
Certificate or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage required to consent to any
such amendment, without the consent of the holders of all Certificates then
outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Depositor may, from time to time after the date of this Agreement, request each
Rating Agency to approve a formula for determining the Reserve Fund Requisite
Amount that is different from that on the Closing Date and would result in a
decrease in the Reserve Fund Requisite Amount or the manner by which the
Reserve Fund is funded. In the event each Rating Agency delivers a letter to
the Trustee to the effect that the use of any such new formulation will not
result in a qualification, reduction or withdrawal of its then-current rating
of the Class A Certificates and the Class B Certificates, then either the
Reserve Fund Requisite Amount will be determined in accordance with such new
formula or the manner by which the Reserve Fund is funded will be modified.
(c) Promptly after the execution of any amendment or consent pursuant
to this Section 12.08, the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the
substance of such amendment and a copy of such amendment to each
Certificateholder, and to each Rating Agency.
-64-
(d) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders
under this Section 12.08 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the
substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to
such reasonable requirements as the Trustee may prescribe.
(e) The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
amendment which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under
this Agreement or otherwise.
(f) In connection with any amendment pursuant to this Section 12.08,
the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an opinion of counsel to the Servicer
and acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that such amendment is authorized or
permitted by this Agreement.
(g) Upon the execution of any amendment or consent pursuant to this
Section 12.08, this Agreement shall be modified in accordance therewith, and
such amendment or consent shall form a part of this Agreement for all purposes,
and every holder of Certificates theretofore or thereafter issued hereunder
shall be bound thereby.

CERTIFICATE FOR HARLEY-DAVIDSON MOTORCYCLE CONTRACTS
Harley-Davidson Eaglemark Trust ___
___.% Certificate, Class A
This Class A Certificate does not represent an obligation of or an
interest in Eaglemark Customer Funding Corporation-__, Eaglemark, Inc. or any
affiliate thereof, except to the extent set forth in the Agreement. This Class A
Certificate has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any
state securities laws and may not be sold, transferred or pledged in the absence
of an effective Registration Statement under such Act and laws or unless the
conditions set forth in Section 9.02 of the Agreement have been complied with.
The principal represented by this Class A Certificate is payable in
installments, as described herein and in the Agreement. Accordingly, the unpaid
Class A Certificate Balance of this Class A Certificate may be less than that
set forth below. Anyone acquiring this Class A Certificate may ascertain the
current unpaid Class A Certificate Balance represented by this certificate by
inquiry of the Trustee.
No. Class A Initial Certificate Principal Balance:$_________
Fractional Interest: ______%
This certifies that ____________________________ is the registered owner of the
undivided Fractional Interest represented by the Class A Initial Certificate
Principal Balance set forth above in Harley-Davidson Eaglemark Trust _____ (the
"Trust"), which includes among its assets a pool of fixed-rate, simple interest
Harley-Davidson motorcycle conditional sales contracts (including, without
limitation, all security interests and any and all rights to receive payments
which are collected pursuant thereto on or after the Initial Cutoff Date or the
related Subsequent Cutoff Date in respect of Subsequent Contracts as described
below) (the "Contracts") and rights under the Deposit Agreement described
herein. The Trust has been created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement
(the "Agreement"), dated as of _______________, by and among Eaglemark Customer
Funding Corporation-__, as trust depositor (the "Trust Depositor"), Eaglemark,
Inc., as servicer (in such capacity, the "Servicer"), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust and
Savings Bank, as Trustee of the Trust (in such capacity, the "Trustee"). This
Class A Certificate is one of the Class A Certificates described in the
Agreement and is issued, together with the Class B Certificates, pursuant and
subject to the Agreement. By acceptance of this Class A Certificate the holder
assents to and becomes bound by the Agreement. The Agreement provides that the
holder of a Class A Certificate agrees to report the income on the Class A
Certificate in a manner consistent with the intended characterization of the
Trust as a grantor trust. To the extent not defined herein, all capitalized
terms have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement and all Section
references, unless otherwise specified, are to Sections of the Agreement.
It is contemplated by the Transaction Documents that the proceeds from
the issuance of the Certificates will be used in their entirety to purchase
Contracts, including the Subsequent Contracts. To the extent that proceeds from
the Certificates are intended to purchase Subsequent Contracts, those proceeds
shall be deposited at Closing in the Pre-Funding Account and will be withdrawn
therefrom from time to time during the Funding Period only to purchase
Subsequent Contracts. Any funds remaining in the Pre-Funding Account at the end
of the Funding Period shall be distributed as a Special Distribution of
principal to the Class A Certificateholders in an amount equal to the Class A
Percentage multiplied by the amount on deposit in the Special Distribution
Account. The Pre-Funding Account and the funds therein are not a part of the
Trust but will be held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee
pursuant to the Security Agreement.
The Agreement contemplates, subject to its terms, payment on the
fifteenth day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business Day) (each, a "Payment Date") of each calendar month commencing
_________, so long as the Agreement has not been terminated, by check from funds
drawn from the Collection Account (or in certain instances the Special
Distribution Account) to the registered Class A Certificateholder at the address
appearing on the Certificate Register (or by wire transfer if the Class A
Certificateholder delivers written instructions to the Trustee at least ten days
prior to such Payment Date) as of the last Business Day of the immediately
preceding calendar month (each such month during the term of the Agreement
constituting a "Due Period"), an amount equal to the Class A Certificateholder's
Fractional Interest of the Class A Principal Distributable Amount and the Class
A Interest Distributable Amount (as well as, in certain instances, the
Fractional Interest of Special Distributions). The final scheduled Payment Date
of this Certificate is_________________, which relates to the month following
the latest maturity date of the Contracts (including any Subsequent Contracts).
This Class A Certificate does not represent an obligation of or an
interest in the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer or the
Trustee and the Trustee in its individual capacity is not personally liable to
the Class A Certificateholder for any amounts payable under this Class A
Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement,
subject to any liability under the Agreement.
This Class A Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement
and reference is made to the Agreement for information with respect to the
interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby
and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee. Copies of the Agreement
and all amendments thereto will be provided to any Class A Certificateholder
free of charge upon a written request to the Trustee, at its Corporate Trust
Department, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.
"Class A Interest Distributable Amount" means, with respect to any
Payment Date (other than the first Payment Date), the sum of (i) the product of
(A) one-twelfth (or, with respect to the first Payment Date, a fraction, the
numerator of which equals the number of days from and including the Closing Date
to but excluding the first Payment Date and the denominator of which equals 360)
of the Class A Pass-Through Rate and (B) the Class A Certificate Balance as of
the immediately preceding Payment Date (after giving effect to distributions of
principal made on such immediately preceding Payment Date) or, in the case of
the first Payment Date, the Class A Initial Certificate
Balance plus (ii) the Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall for such Payment
Date. "Class A Principal Distributable Amount" means, with respect to any
Payment Date, the sum of (i) the product of (a) the Class A Percentage and the
(b) Monthly Principal for such Payment Date plus (ii) the Class A Principal
Carryover Shortfall for such Payment Date. "Available Interest" means, with
respect to any Payment Date, the total (without duplication) of the following
amounts received by the Servicer on or in respect of the Contracts during the
related Due Period: (i) all amounts received in respect of interest on the
Contracts (as well as Late Payment Penalty Fees and Extension Fees), (ii) the
interest component of all Net Liquidation Proceeds, (iii) the interest component
of the aggregate of the Repurchase Prices for Contracts repurchased by the
Seller pursuant to Section 8.06, (iv) all Advances made by the Servicer pursuant
to Section 8.03, (v) the interest component of all amounts paid by the Seller in
connection with an optional repurchase of the Contracts pursuant to Section
8.08, (vi) all amounts received in respect of Carrying Charges transferred from
the Interest Reserve Account pursuant to Section 8.03, and (vii) all amounts
received in respect of interest, dividends, gains, income and earnings on
investment of funds in the Trust Accounts as contemplated in the last sentence
of Section 5.05(d). "Available Principal" means, with respect to any Payment
Date, the total (without duplication) of the following amounts received by the
Servicer on or in respect of the Contracts during the related Due Period: (i)
all amounts received in respect of principal on the Contracts, (ii) the
principal component of all Net Liquidation Proceeds, (iii) the principal
component of the aggregate of the Repurchase Prices for Contracts repurchased by
the Seller pursuant to Section 8.06, and (iv) the principal component of all
amounts paid by the Seller in connection with an optional repurchase of the
Contracts pursuant to Section 8.08. "Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall"
means, with respect to any Payment Date, (i) the excess of the Class A Interest
Distributable Amount for the preceding Payment Date over the amount of interest
that was actually distributed to Class A Certificateholders on such preceding
Payment Date, plus (ii) 30 days of interest on the amount specified in clause
(i), to the extent permitted by law, at the Class A Pass-Through Rate. "Class A
Principal Carryover Shortfall" means, with respect to any Payment Date, (i) the
excess of the Class A Principal Distributable Amount over (ii) the amount of
principal that was actually distributed to Class A Certificateholders on such
preceding Payment Date. "Principal Balance" means (a) with respect to any
Contract as of any date, an amount equal to the unpaid principal balance of such
Contract as of the opening of business on the Initial Cutoff Date or related
Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable, reduced by the sum of (x) all payments
received by the Servicer as of such date allocable to principal and (y) any Cram
Down Loss in respect of such Contract; provided, however, that (i) if (x) a
Contract is repurchased by the Seller pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Transfer
and Sale Agreement and Section 8.06 because of a breach of representation or
warranty or if (y) the Seller gives notice of its intent to purchase the
Contracts in connection with an optional termination of the Trust pursuant to
Section 5.02 of the Transfer and Sale Agreement and Section 8.08, in each case
the Principal Balance of such Contract or Contracts shall be deemed as of the
related Determination Date to be zero for the Due Period in which such event
occurs and for each Due Period thereafter, (ii) from and after the third Due
Period succeeding the final Due Period in which the Obligor is required to make
the final scheduled payment on a Contract, the Principal Balance, if any, of
such Contract shall be deemed to be zero, and (iii) from and after the Due
Period in which a Contract becomes a Liquidated Contract, the Principal Balance
of such Contract shall be deemed to be zero; and (b) where the context requires,
the aggregate of the Principal Balances described in clause (a) for all such
Contracts. "Monthly Principal" means, as to any Payment Date, the following
amount calculated as of the related Determination Date: the difference between
(i) the
sum of (A) the Principal Balance of the Contracts as of the first day of the
Due Period preceding the Due Period in which such
Payment Date occurs (or, in the case of
the first Payment Date, the Principal Balance of the Contracts as of the Initial
Cutoff Date), plus (B) the Pre-Funded Amount on such date (or, in the case of
the first Payment Date, the Pre-Funded Amount on the Closing Date) and (ii) the
sum of (A) the Principal Balance of the Contracts as of the first day of the Due
Period in which such Payment Date occurs, plus (B) the Pre-Funded Amount on such
day, plus (C) the amount of any Special Distribution occurring from the day
referred to in clause (i)(A) above to the day referred to in clause (ii)(A)
above; provided, that on the Final Scheduled Payment Date, Monthly Principal
shall equal the aggregate of the Class A Certificate Balance and the Class B
Certificate Balance. For purposes of determining the amount in clause (ii)(C)
above as to any particular Payment Date and with respect to the Due Period
preceding such Payment Date, if the Funding Period ends during such Due Period
and Liquidated Damages (as defined in the Security Agreement) are consequently
paid from the Pre- Funding Account during such Due Period but will not be
distributed as a Special Distribution until the Payment Date occurring in the
following Due Period (i.e., the particular Payment Date referred to above), then
the amount calculated in clause (ii)(C) for such preceding Due Period shall be
deemed to include such Special Distribution in such amount (although paid as a
Special Distribution on the Payment Date occurring during the following Due
Period) will not be included in the next calculation of clause (ii)(C) to be
made with respect to the following Due Period.
On each Payment Date, the Trustee will cause to be distributed from
Available Funds, Available Interest and Available Principal for such Payment
Date in the Collection Account to the Certificateholders the following amounts
(after the payment of the Reimbursement Amount, the Servicing Fee, the Trustee's
Fee and the Back-up Servicer Fee) in the following priorities (which includes
the benefit of (a) the subordination (as described below) of the Class B
Percentage of Available Interest and Available Principal and (b) the Reserve
Fund) (l) to the Class A Certificateholders of record, from Available Interest,
an amount equal to the Class A Interest Distributable Amount for such Payment
Date and, if such Available Interest is insufficient, the Class A
Certificateholders will receive such shortfall first, from the Class B
Percentage of Available Principal and second, if such amounts are still
insufficient, from monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund; (2) to the Class B
Certificateholders of record, from Available Interest, an amount equal to the
Class B Interest Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such
Available Interest is insufficient, the Class B Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall from monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund; (3) to the Class A
Certificateholders of record, from Available Principal, an amount equal to the
Class A Principal Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such
Available Principal is insufficient, the Class A Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall first, from Available Interest, and second, if such amounts are
still insufficient, from monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund; and (4) to the
Class B Certificateholders of record, from Available Principal, an amount equal
to the Class B Principal Distributable Amount for such Payment Date and, if such
Available Principal is insufficient, the Class B Certificateholders will receive
such shortfall first, from Available Interest, and second, if such amounts are
still insufficient, from monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund. Any Available
Funds remaining in the Collection Account after such distributions will be paid
to the Trust Depositor subject to the conditions of the Reserve Fund Agreement.
The Seller will repurchase a Contract by depositing the
Repurchase Price for such Contract into the Collection Account no later
than two Business Days prior to the Determination Date which is more than
ninety days after the Trust Depositor becomes aware, or should have
become aware or receives written notice from the Trustee, of breach of a
warranty of the Seller set forth in Article III of the Transfer and Sale
Agreement that materially adversely affects the Trust's interest in such
Contract, which breach has not been cured (the Seller's obligation to repurchase
such Contract constituting the Certificateholders' sole remedy with respect to
such a breach of a representation and warranty set forth in the Transfer and
Sale Agreement).
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights of the Certificateholders
under the Agreement at any time by the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Trust
Depositor, and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of Class A
Certificates evidencing Fractional Interests representing 66-2/3% or more of
such Class voting as a separate Class and holders of Class B Certificates
evidencing Fractional Interests representing 66-2/3% or more of the Class B
Certificates voting as a separate Class. Any such consent by the holder of this
Class A Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such holder and upon all
future holders of this Class A Certificate and of any Class A Certificate issued
upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not
notation of such consent is made upon this Class A Certificate. The Agreement
also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without
the consent of any of the Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to the limitations set forth
therein, the transfer of this Class A Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register of the Certificate Registrar upon surrender of this Class A
Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by
the Trustee in Chicago, Illinois as previously described, accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar duly executed by the holder thereof or his or her attorney
duly authorized in writing, and upon receipt by the Trustee of either (i)
evidence of the effectiveness or continued effectiveness of a registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to this
Class A Certificate, and registration under the applicable state laws, or (ii) a
certificate in writing of the transferee satisfactory to the Trust Depositor
regarding the facts surrounding such disposition; provided, however, at the
election of the Trust Depositor, the Trust Depositor may, in addition, if such
certification is not substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 to the Agreement,
require the delivery of an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Trustee (which
shall not be at the expense of the Trust Depositor or the Trustee) that no such
registration is required, and thereupon one or more new Class A Certificates
evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Interest will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, Class A Certificates are exchangeable for new Class A Certificates of
authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Fractional Interest as
requested by the holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made
for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Certificate Registrar
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in connection therewith.
The Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Trustee,
the Paying Agent and
the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Trust Depositor,
the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the
Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying
Agent, the Certificate Registrar nor any such agent shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary.
The obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement and the
Trust created thereby shall terminate (after distribution of all Class A
Distributable Amounts and Class B Distributable Amounts) on the Payment Date on
which the Class A Certificate Balance and Class B Certificate Balance is reduced
to zero; provided, that in no event shall the trust created thereby continue
beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the
descendants of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the late Ambassador of the United States to
the Court of St. ▇▇▇▇▇, living on the date hereof.

Harley-Davidson Eaglemark Trust ____
_____% Certificate, Class B
This Class B Certificate does not represent an obligation of or an
interest in Eaglemark Customer Funding Corporation-___, Eaglemark, Inc. or any
affiliate thereof, except to the extent set forth in the Agreement. This Class B
Certificate has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any
state securities laws and may not be sold, transferred or pledged in the absence
of an effective Registration Statement under such Act and laws or unless the
conditions set forth in Section 9.02 of the Agreement have been complied with.
Distributions on this Class B Certificate are subordinate to distributions on
the Class A Certificates as described in the Agreement.
The principal represented by this Class B Certificate is payable in
installments, as described herein and in the Agreement. Accordingly, the unpaid
Class B Certificate Balance of this Class B Certificate may be less than that
set forth below. Anyone acquiring this Class B Certificate may ascertain the
current unpaid Class B Certificate Balance represented by this certificate by
inquiry of the Trustee.
No. Class B Initial Certificate Principal Balance:$________
Fractional Interest: _______%
This certifies that ______________________________ is the registered owner of
the undivided Fractional Interest represented by the Class B Initial Certificate
Principal Balance set forth above in Eaglemark Trust _____ (the "Trust"), which
includes among its assets a pool of fixed-rate, simple interest Harley-Davidson
motorcycle conditional sales contracts (including, without limitation, all
security interests and any and all rights to receive payments which are
collected pursuant thereto on or after the Initial Cutoff Date or the related
Subsequent Cutoff Date in respect of Subsequent Contracts as described below)
(the "Contracts") and rights under the Deposit Agreement described herein. The
Trust has been created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the
"Agreement"), dated as of ________, by and among Eaglemark Customer Funding
Corporation-___, as trust depositor (the "Trust Depositor"), Eaglemark, Inc., as
servicer (in such capacity, the "Servicer"), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust and Savings Bank,
as Trustee of the Trust (the "Trustee"). This Class B Certificate is one of the
Class B Certificates described in the Agreement and is issued, together with the
Class A Certificates, pursuant and subject to the Agreement. By acceptance of
this Class B Certificate the holder assents to and becomes bound by the
Agreement. The Agreement provides that the holder of a Class B Certificate
agrees to report the income on the Class B Certificate in a manner consistent
with the intended characterization of the Trust as a grantor trust. To the
extent not defined herein, all capitalized terms have the meanings assigned to
such terms in the Agreement and all Section references, unless otherwise
specified, are to Sections of the Agreement.
It is contemplated by the Transaction Documents that the proceeds from
the issuance of the Certificates will be used in their entirety to purchase
Contracts, including the Subsequent Contracts. To the extent that proceeds from
the Certificates are intended to purchase Subsequent Contracts, those proceeds
shall be deposited at Closing in the Pre-Funding Account and will be withdrawn
therefrom from time to time during the Funding Period only to purchase
Subsequent Contracts. Any funds remaining in the Pre-Funding Account at the end
of the Funding Period shall be distributed as a Special Distribution of the
Class B percentage of principal to the Class B Certificateholders in an amount
equal to the Class B Percentage multiplied by the amount on deposit in the
Special Distribution Account. The Pre-Funding Account and the funds therein are
not a part of the Trust but will be held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the Trustee pursuant to the Security Agreement.
The Agreement contemplates, subject to its terms, payment on the
fifteenth day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding
Business Day) (each, a "Payment Date") of each calendar month commencing
__________, so long as the Agreement has not been terminated, by check from
funds drawn from the Collection Account (or in certain instances the Special
Distribution Account) to the registered Class B Certificateholder at the address
appearing on the Certificate Register (or by wire transfer, if the Class B
Certificateholder delivers written instructions to the Trustee at least ten days
prior to such Payment Date) as of the last Business Day of the immediately
preceding calendar month (each such month during the term of the Agreement
constituting a "Due Period"), an amount equal to the Class B Certificateholder's
Fractional Interest of the Class B Principal Distributable Amount and the Class
B Interest Distributable Amount (as well as, in certain instances, the
Fractional Interest of Special Distributions). The final scheduled Payment Date
of this Certificate is ____________, which relates to the month following the
latest maturity date of the Contracts (including any Subsequent Contracts).
This Class B Certificate does not represent an obligation of or an
interest in the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Back-up Servicer or the
Trustee and the Trustee in its individual capacity is not personally liable to
the Class B Certificateholder for any amounts payable under this Class B
Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement,
subject to any liability under the Agreement.
This Class B Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement
and reference is made to the Agreement for information with respect to the
interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby
and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee. Copies of the Agreement
and all amendments thereto will be provided to any Class B Certificateholder
free of charge upon a written request to the Trustee, at its Corporate Trust
Department, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.

and Liquidated Damages (as defined in the Security Agreement) are consequently
paid from the Pre- Funding Account during such Due Period but will not be
distributed as a Special Distribution until the Payment Date occurring in the
following Due Period (i.e., the particular Payment Date referred to above), then
the amount calculated in clause (ii)(C) for such preceding Due Period shall be
deemed to include such Special Distribution in such amount (although paid as a
Special Distribution on the Payment Date occurring during the following Due
