DEPOSIT OF CERTIFICATE

SECTION 2.1 Deposit of Certificate and Initial Deposit.
(a) In consideration of the Issuer's delivery of the Notes to and upon the
order of the Depositor, the Depositor does hereby transfer, assign, set-over,
pledge and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse (subject to the
Depositor's obligations herein), all right, title, and interest of the

Depositor in, to and under (i) the Series Certificate, and all money,
instruments, investment property and other property (together with all
earnings, dividends, distributions, income, issues, and profits relating
thereto), distributed or distributable in respect of the Series Certificate
pursuant to the terms of the Series Supplement and the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement after the Closing Date and (ii) the initial deposit to the Owner
Trust Spread Account in the amount of $8,928,570 on the Closing Date.

This Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a
security agreement within the meaning of the UCC, and the conveyance by the
Depositor provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be and hereby is
a grant by the Depositor to the Issuer of a security interest in and to all
of the Depositor's right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in, to and under all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper,
instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, arising from, or relating to
the Series Certificate and the proceeds thereof, to secure the rights of the
Issuer under this Agreement and the obligations of the Depositor hereunder.
The Depositor and the Issuer shall, to the extent consistent with this
Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that the security
interest in the Series Certificate created hereunder will be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.

It is the intention of the Depositor and the Issuer that (a)
the assignment and transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the
Series Certificate, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens
and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Issuer and (b) the Series
Certificate not be part of the Depositor's estate in the event of an
insolvency of the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to
be a pledge to secure a loan, the Depositor hereby grants to the Issuer a
first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor's right,
title and interest in, to and under the Series Certificate, and in all
proceeds of the foregoing, to secure the loan deemed to be made in connection
with such pledge and, in such event, this Agreement shall constitute a
security agreement under applicable law.

(b) To the extent that the Depositor retains any interest
in the Series Certificate, the Depositor hereby grants to the Indenture
Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a security interest in
all of the Depositor's right, title, and interest, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired, in, to, and under all accounts, general intangibles,
chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates
of deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit, and investment
property consisting of, arising from, or relating to the Series Certificate
and the proceeds thereof (collectively, the "Indenture Collateral"), to
secure the performance of all of the obligations of the Depositor under the
Indenture and the other Basic Documents. With respect to the Indenture

Collateral, the Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights it has under
the Indenture and the other Basic Documents. The Indenture Trustee shall
have all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC in New York and
the UCC in Delaware.

SECTION 2.2 Closing. The sale of the Series Certificate
shall take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, New York, New
York on the Closing Date, simultaneously with the closing of the other
transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents.

SECTION 2.3 Books and Records.

(a) In connection with the transfer, assignment, set-over,
pledge and conveyance set forth in Section 2.1, the Depositor agrees to
record and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and
continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when
applicable) required to be filed with respect to the Series Certificate
assigned by the Depositor hereunder, meeting the requirements of applicable
state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary under
applicable law to perfect the transfer, assignment, set-over, pledge and
conveyance of the Series Certificate to the Issuer, and to deliver a file-
stamped copy of such financing statements or other evidence of such filings
to the Issuer on or prior to the Closing Date (excluding such continuation
and similar statements, which shall be delivered promptly after filing).

(b) In connection with the transfer, assignment, set-over,
pledge and conveyance hereunder, the Depositor further agrees, at its own
expense, on or prior to the Closing Date to cause the Master Trust Trustee to
register the Issuer as the registered owner of the Series Certificate.

SECTION 2.4 Holder of the Series Certificate. For so long
as the Series Certificate is pledged to the Indenture Trustee under the
Indenture, the Indenture Trustee initially shall be deemed to be the holder
of the Series Certificate for all purposes under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and the Series Supplement. To the extent the Series Certificate is
sold or otherwise transferred, subject to the provisions of Section 5.4 of
the Indenture and Section 16 of the Series Supplement, to a third-party in
connection with the sale or liquidation of the Owner Trust Estate pursuant to
the provisions of the Indenture, such transferee shall be deemed to be the
holder of the Series Certificate for all purposes under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and the Series Supplement.

ARTICLE III

DEPOSITOR REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

SECTION 3.1 Representations and Warranties of Depositor.
The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties with respect
to the Series Certificate on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied in
acquiring the Series Certificate. Such representations and warranties speak
as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but shall survive the
transfer and assignment of the Series Certificate to the Issuer and the
pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

(a) Title. It is the intention of the Depositor (i) that
the transfer contemplated in subsection 2.1(a) herein constitute either (A) a
sale of the Series Certificate, or (B) a grant of a perfected security
interest therein from the Depositor to the Issuer and (ii) to the extent that
the Depositor retains any interest in the Series Certificate after the
transfer contemplated by subsection 2.1(a) herein, that the grant

security interest therein from the Depositor to the Indenture Trustee for the
benefit of the Holders of the Notes and that the beneficial interest in the
title to the Series Certificate not be part of the debtor's estate in the
event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor
under any bankruptcy law. The Series Certificate has not been sold,
transferred, assigned or pledged by the Depositor to any Person other than
pursuant to this Agreement. Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment
herein contemplated, the Depositor had good and marketable title to the
Series Certificate, free and clear of all liens and rights of others and,
immediately upon the transfer thereof, the Issuer shall have good and
marketable title to the Series Certificate, free and clear of all liens of
rights of others or a first priority perfected security interest therein; and
the transfer has been perfected, by the filing of appropriate financing
statements pursuant to the UCC, under the UCC. The Depositor has no actual
knowledge of any current statutory or other non-consensual liens to which the
Series Certificate is subject.

(b) No Consents Required. All approvals, authorizations,
consents, orders or other actions of any Person or of any Governmental
Authority required in connection with the execution and delivery by the
Depositor of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, the performance by
the Depositor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other
Basic Document and the fulfillment by the Depositor of the terms hereof and
thereof have been obtained or have been completed and are in full force and
effect (other than approvals, authorizations, consents, orders and other
actions which if not obtained or completed or in full force or effect would
not have a material adverse effect on the Depositor or the Issuer or upon the
collectibility of the proceeds from the Series Certificate or upon the
ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations under this Agreement).

(c) Transfers Comply. Each of (i) the transfer of the
Series Certificate by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, (ii) the pledge of the Series Certificate by the Depositor to
the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) the pledge of the Series Certificate
by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture, comply with the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and the Series Supplement relating to the transfers of the Series
Certificate.

(d) All Actions Taken. All actions necessary under the
applicable UCC in any jurisdiction to be taken (i) to give the Issuer a first
priority perfected security interest or ownership interest in the Series
Certificate, and (ii) to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority
perfected security interest therein (including, without limitation, UCC
filings with the Delaware Secretary of State), in each case subject to any
statutory or other non-consensual liens with respect to the Series
Certificate, have been taken. The Depositor has no actual knowledge of any
current statutory or other non-consensual liens to which the Series
Certificate is subject.

and the Issuer all such documents, reports, filings, instruments,
certificates and opinions.

(c) Non-Ministerial Matters. (i) With respect to matters
that in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial, the

Administrator shall not take any action unless within a reasonable time
before the taking of such action, the Administrator shall have notified the
Owner Trustee of the proposed action and the Owner Trustee shall not have
withheld consent or provided an alternative direction. For the purpose of the
preceding sentence, "non-ministerial matters" shall include, without

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to, and shall
not, (x) make any payments to the Noteholders or the
Certificateholder under the Basic Documents, (y) sell the Owner Trust
Estate pursuant to the Indenture other than pursuant to a written
directive of the Indenture Trustee or (z) take any action that the
Issuer directs the Administrator not to take on its behalf.

(d) Reports by the Administrator. On or prior to each
Transfer Date, the Administrator will provide to the Indenture Trustee for
the Indenture Trustee to forward to each Noteholder of record, and to the
Owner Trustee, a statement setting forth (to the extent applicable) the
following information as to the Notes with respect to the related Payment
Date or the period since the previous Payment Date, as applicable:

(i) the amount of the distribution allocable to principal
of the Notes;

(iii) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the
Notes after giving effect to all payments reported under clause (i)
above on such date; and

(iv) the amount, if any, on deposit in the Owner Trust
Spread Account on such Payment Date, after giving effect to all
transfers and withdrawals therefrom and all transfers and deposits
thereto on such Payment Date, and the amount required to be on
deposit in the Owner Trust Spread Account on such date.

Each amount set forth pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above
will be expressed as a dollar amount per $1,000 of the initial principal
balance of the Notes.

(e) Owner Trust Accounts. The Administrator shall
establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit
of the Noteholders, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Note Distribution
Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited
therein are held for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Administrator shall
establish and maintain, in the name of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit
of the Class C Noteholders (and, to the extent expressly provided in the
Indenture, the Certificateholder), an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Owner
Trust Spread Account", and together with the Note Distribution Account, the
"Owner Trust Accounts"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the
funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Class C Noteholders
and the Certificateholder. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right,
title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Owner
Trust Accounts and in all proceeds thereof. The Note Distribution Account
shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the
benefit of the Noteholders. The Owner Trust Spread Account shall be under
the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the
Class C Noteholders (and, to the extent expressly provided in the Indenture,
the Certificateholder). If, at any time, any Owner Trust Account ceases to
be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Administrator shall notify the Indenture
Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee upon being notified (or the Administrator
on its behalf) shall, within 10 Business Days, establish a new Owner Trust
Account which meets the conditions specified in the definition of Eligible
Deposit Account, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such new
Owner Trust Account. The Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the
Administrator, shall make withdrawals from the Owner Trust Accounts from time
to time, in the amounts and for the purposes set forth in the Indenture.

Funds on deposit in the Owner Trust Spread Account shall be
invested at the direction of the Administrator by the Indenture Trustee in
Permitted Investments. The Indenture Trustee shall maintain for the benefit
of the Noteholders and the Series Certificateholder possession of the
negotiable instruments or securities, if any, evidencing such Permitted
Investments. No Permitted Investment shall be disposed of prior to its
maturity.

To the extent so instructed by the Administrator on any
Transfer Date, the Indenture Trustee shall, if the amount on deposit in the
Owner Trust Spread Account is greater than the Required Owner Trust Spread
Account Amount for such Transfer Date, pay the amount of such excess to the
Certificateholder pursuant to the Indenture.

SECTION 4.2 Records. The Administrator shall maintain
appropriate books of account and records relating to services performed
hereunder, which books of account and records shall be accessible for
inspection by the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the
Depositor at any time during normal business hours.

SECTION 4.3 [Reserved]

SECTION 4.4 Additional Information To Be Furnished to
Issuer. The Administrator shall furnish to the Issuer from time to time such
additional information regarding the Collateral as the Issuer shall
reasonably request, including notification of Noteholders pursuant to Section
4.1(a) hereof.

SECTION 4.5 Independence of Administrator. For all
purposes of this Agreement, the Administrator shall be an independent
contractor and shall not be subject to the supervision of the Issuer or the
Owner Trustee with respect to the manner in which it accomplishes the
performance of its obligations hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the
Issuer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, the Administrator shall have
no authority to act for or represent the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in any
way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee.

SECTION 4.6 No Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall (i) constitute the Administrator and either of the Issuer or
the Owner Trustee as members of any partnership, joint venture, association,
syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) be
construed to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) be deemed
to confer on any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur
any obligation or liability on behalf of the others.

SECTION 4.7 Other Activities of Administrator. (a) Nothing
herein shall prevent the Administrator or its affiliates from engaging in
other businesses or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar
capacity as an administrator for any other person or entity even though such
person or entity may engage in business activities similar to those of the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

(b) The Administrator and its affiliates may generally
engage in any kind of business with any person party to a Basic Document, any

of its affiliates and any person who may do business with or own securities
of any such person or any of its affiliates, without any duty to account
therefor to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 4.8 Net Deposits. As an administrative
convenience, so long as Chase USA is the Administrator and the
Certificateholder, the Administrator will be permitted to make the deposit of
amounts with respect to the Series Certificate for or with respect to any
Monthly Period net of distributions to be made to the Certificateholder with
respect to such Monthly Period. The Administrator, however, will account to
the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders as if the
amounts paid to the Certificateholder were paid pursuant to the Indenture.

ARTICLE V

amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the Outstanding Notes.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders
pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall
approve the substance thereof.

SECTION 6.3 Protection of Title to Owner Trust.

(a) The Depositor shall take all actions necessary and the
Issuer shall cooperate with the Depositor, if applicable, to perfect, and
maintain perfection of, the interests of the Issuer in the Series

and filed such financing statements and continuation statements, all in such
manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to perfect,
maintain, and protect the interest of the Issuer in the Series Certificate
and in the proceeds thereof and the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the
Owner Trust Estate and the proceeds thereof. The Depositor shall deliver (or
cause to be delivered) to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-
stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided
above, as soon as available following such filing.

financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with
paragraph (a) above or otherwise seriously misleading within the meaning of
9-402(7) of the UCC (regardless of whether such a filing was ever made),

unless it shall have given the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at
least five days' prior written notice thereof and, if applicable, shall have
timely filed appropriate amendments to any and all previously filed financing
statements or continuation statements (so that the interest of the Issuer or
the Indenture Trustee is not adversely affected).

(c) Each of the Depositor and the Administrator shall have
an obligation to give the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at least 60
days' prior written notice of any relocation of its principal executive
office if, as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of the
UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed
financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement
(regardless of whether such a filing was ever made) and shall promptly, if
applicable, file any such amendment.

(d) The Administrator shall permit the Indenture Trustee
and its agents at any time following reasonable notice and during normal

specified in such sections.

SECTION 6.4 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not
be assigned by the Administrator unless such assignment is previously
consented to in writing by the Issuer and the Owner Trustee and subject to
satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect thereto. An
assignment with such consent and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee,
shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the Administrator is
bound hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be
assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee to a corporation or other organization that is a successor (by
merger, consolidation or purchase of assets) to the Administrator, provided
that such successor organization executes and delivers to the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in which such

of said assignment in the same manner as the Administrator is bound
hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind any

in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall together constitute but
one and the same agreement.

SECTION 6.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement
that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective

the remaining provisions hereof and any such prohibition or unenforceability
in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such
provision in any other jurisdiction.

in any other capacity.

such agent is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration
for the execution of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.11 Third-Party Beneficiary. Each of the Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee is a third-party beneficiary to this
