If TMCC shall resign as Servicer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or if all of the rights and obligations of any Servicer shall have been terminated under Section 8.01, the appointment of TMCC (as Servicer) as custodian shall be terminated hereunder without further action by the Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee, Noteholders or the Certificateholder. The Indenture Trustee or, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee may terminate the Servicer's appointment as custodian, with cause, at any time upon written notification to the Servicer, and without cause upon 30 days' prior written notification to the Servicer. The Owner Trustee, Indenture Trustee or Noteholders may terminate the Servicer as custodian hereunder in the same manner as the Owner Trustee, Indenture Trustee or Noteholders may terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under Section 8.01. As soon as practicable after any termination of such appointment, the Servicer shall deliver the Receivable Files to the Relevant Trustee or the agent thereof at such place or places as the Relevant Trustee may reasonably designate. ARTICLE IV ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES SECTION 4.01 DUTIES OF SERVICER. The Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuer and the Securityholders (to the extent provided herein), shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to comparable automotive receivables that it services for itself or others. The Servicer's duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors or by federal, state or local government authorities with respect to the Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment information to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors in accordance with its customary practices, accounting for collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to payments and distributions and making Advances and performing the other duties 30 specified herein. The Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies and procedures as in effect from time to time and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary or desirable. Nothing in the foregoing or in any other section of this Agreement shall be construed to prevent the Servicer from implementing new programs, whether on an intermediate, pilot or permanent basis, or on a regional or nationwide basis, or from modifying its standards, policies and procedures as long as, in each case, the Servicer does or would implement such programs or modify its standards, policies and procedures in respect of comparable assets serviced for itself in the ordinary course of business. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securityholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables and the Financed Vehicles. The Servicer is hereby authorized to communicate with Obligors in the ordinary course of its servicing of the Receivables and Financed Vehicles in its own name. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of the Issuer, a legal proceeding to enforce a Defaulted Receivable or to commence or participate in a legal proceeding (including without limitation a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, including a Defaulted Receivable. If the Servicer shall commence or participate in a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Issuer shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned to the Servicer, solely for the purpose of collection on behalf of the party retaining an interest in such Receivable, such Receivable and the other property conveyed to the Issuer hereby with respect to such Receivable for purposes of commencing or participating in any such proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver in the Servicer's name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other documents or instruments in connection with any such proceeding. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall, at the Servicer's expense and direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder and/or the Noteholders. The Owner Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents and take any other steps which the Servicer may deem necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement. SECTION 4.02 COLLECTION AND ALLOCATION OF RECEIVABLE PAYMENTS. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such customary collection procedures as it follows with respect to comparable automotive receivables that it services for itself or others. The Servicer shall be authorized to grant extensions, rebates or adjustments on a Receivable in accordance with the customary servicing standards of the Servicer without the prior consent of the Owner Trustee, Indenture Trustee or any Securityholder; provided, however, that if, as a result of any change in the related APR or the Amount Financed, any increase in the total number of Scheduled Payments or any extension of payments such that the Receivable will be outstanding later than the Class A-4 Final Scheduled Payment Date, the amount of any 31 Scheduled Payment due in a subsequent Collection Period is reduced, the Servicer shall be obligated to either repurchase such Receivable pursuant to Section 4.08 or to make an Advance in respect of such Receivable in each subsequent Collection Period equal to the amount by which such Scheduled Payment has been reduced. In addition, in the event that any such rescheduling or extension of a Receivable modifies the terms of such Receivable in such a manner as to release the security interest in the related Financed Vehicle or constitute a cancellation of such Receivable and the creation of a new automobile or light duty truck receivable, the Servicer shall purchase such Receivable pursuant to Section 4.08, and the receivable created shall not be included as an asset of the Issuer. The Servicer may, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, waive any prepayment charge, late payment charge or any other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing the Receivables. SECTION 4.03 REBATES ON FULL PREPAYMENTS. In the event that the amount of a full Prepayment by an Obligor under a Precomputed Receivable, after adjustment for the applicable Rebate, is less than the amount that would be payable under the actuarial method if a full Prepayment were made at the end of the billing month under such Precomputed Receivable, either because the Rebate calculated under the terms of such Precomputed Receivable is greater than the amount calculable under the actuarial method or because the Servicer's customary servicing procedure is to credit a greater Rebate, the Servicer, as part of its servicing duties, shall remit such difference by deposit into the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.05. SECTION 4.04 REALIZATION UPON RECEIVABLES. On behalf of the Issuer, the Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with its customary servicing procedures, to repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of any Financed Vehicle that it has reasonably determined should be repossessed or otherwise converted following a default under the Receivable secured by the Financed Vehicle (and shall specify such Receivables to the Relevant Trustee no later than the Determination Date following the end of the Collection Period in which the Servicer shall have made such determination). The Servicer shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable and as shall be customary and usual in its servicing of automobile and light duty truck receivables, which practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any Dealer Recourse, selling the related Financed Vehicle at public or private sale and other actions to realize upon such a Receivable. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover its Liquidation Expenses with respect to each Defaulted Receivable. All Net Liquidation Proceeds realized in connection with any such action with respect to a Receivable shall be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account in the manner specified in Section 5.02. The foregoing is subject to the proviso that, in any case in which the Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any repair or towards the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair and/or repossession shall increase the Liquidation Proceeds of the related Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. SECTION 4.05 PHYSICAL DAMAGE INSURANCE. The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, require that each Obligor shall have delivered proof that it has obtained physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle at the date of origination of the related Receivable, but shall not obtain any such coverage on behalf of any Obligor. The Servicer shall be required to monitor the maintenance by any Obligor of such 32 insurance only to the same extent, if any, that the Servicer monitors such maintenance by obligors with respect to retail automobile sales contracts that are held for the account of TMCC. SECTION 4.06 MAINTENANCE OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN FINANCED VEHICLES. The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures and at its own expense, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Issuer hereby authorizes the Servicer to take such steps as are necessary to again perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason. In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to the Issuer is insufficient, without a notation on the related Financed Vehicle's certificate of title, to grant to the Issuer a first priority perfected security interest in the related Financed Vehicle, the Servicer hereby agrees to serve as the agent of the Issuer for the purpose of perfecting the security interest of the Issuer in such Financed Vehicle and agrees that the Servicer's listing as the secured party on the certificate of title is in this capacity as agent of the Issuer. SECTION 4.07 COVENANTS OF SERVICER. The Servicer hereby makes the following covenants to the Issuer on which the Issuer has relied in purchasing the Receivables and issuing the Certificate, and on which the Indenture Trustee will rely in undertaking the trusts set forth in the Indenture and issuing the Notes. (a) LIENS IN FORCE. Except as contemplated by this Agreement, the Servicer shall not release in whole or in part any Financed Vehicle from the security interest securing the related Receivable. (b) NO IMPAIRMENT. The Servicer shall do nothing to impair the rights of the Securityholders in the Receivables. (c) NO AMENDMENTS. Except as provided in Section 4.02, the Servicer shall not amend or otherwise modify any Receivable such that the total number of Scheduled Payments, the Amount Financed or the APR is altered, or extend the maturity of such Receivable beyond the Class A-4 Final Scheduled Payment Date. SECTION 4.08 PURCHASE OF RECEIVABLES UPON BREACH. The Servicer shall inform the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee promptly, in writing, upon the actual knowledge of one of its officers of, and the Owner Trustee shall inform the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee promptly, in writing, upon the actual knowledge of one of its Trust Officers of, any breach pursuant to Section 4.06 or 4.07 that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer in a Receivable, or if an extension, rescheduling or modification of a Receivable is made by the Servicer as described in Section 4.02 and the Servicer does not elect to make Advances to cover resulting reductions in interest accruals as provided in Section 4.02, the party discovering such event shall give prompt written notice to the others. As of the last day of the second Collection Period following the Collection Period in which it discovers or receives notice of such event (or, at the Servicer's election, the last day of the first Collection Period following the Collection Period in which it discovers or receives notice of such breach), the Servicer shall, unless such event shall have been cured in all material respects or such modification has been rescinded or the Servicer has elected to and does make all required Advances, purchase from the Issuer such 33 Receivable. In consideration of the purchase of any such Receivable, on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date the Servicer shall remit the Administrative Purchase Payment to the Collection Account in the manner specified in Section 5.05, and shall be entitled to receive the Released Administrative Amount. Upon such deposit of the Administrative Purchase Payment, the Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have released all claims for reimbursement of Outstanding Advances made in respect of such Receivable. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.02, the sole remedy of the Owner Trustee, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any Securityholders against the Servicer with respect to a breach pursuant to Section 4.02, 4.06 or 4.07 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase the related Receivables pursuant to this Section. The Owner Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section. In connection with such repurchase, the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee shall take all steps necessary to effect a transfer of such Receivable to the Servicer as set forth in Section 9.01(d). SECTION 4.09 SERVICING FEE AND EXPENSES. As compensation for the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive on each Payment Date, out of Available Collections, the Total Servicing Fee. The Basic Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection Period shall be calculated based on a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, the Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement (including fees and disbursements of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Administrator and the independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with its preparation of reports hereunder and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under this Agreement to be for the account of the Certificateholder). SECTION 4.10 SERVICER'S CERTIFICATE. On or before each Determination Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, each Paying Agent, the Swap Counterparty (unless TMCC or an Affiliate thereof is the Servicer and the Swap Counterparty at the time of delivery), the Indenture Trustee and the Seller, with a copy to each Rating Agency, a Servicer's Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, containing the information necessary to make the payments to be made on the related Payment Date and the information necessary for the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to send statements to the Securityholders pursuant to the Trust Agreement or Indenture, as the case may be. The Servicer shall also specify therein the identity of any Receivable that the Servicer or the Seller became obligated to repurchase or that the Servicer has determined to be a Defaulted Receivable during the related Collection Period. Receivables purchased or to be purchased by the Servicer or the Seller and Receivables that the Servicer has determined during such Collection Period to be Defaulted Receivables and with respect to which payment of the Administrative Purchase Payment or Warranty Purchase Payment has been provided from whatever source as of last day of such Collection Period shall be identified by the related Obligor's account number (as specified in the Schedule of Receivables). SECTION 4.11 ANNUAL STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE; NOTICE OF DEFAULT. (a) Within 120 days after March 31 of each calendar year (commencing with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002), the Servicer shall deliver an Officer's Certificate to the Owner Trustee, the Swap Counterparty (unless TMCC or an Affiliate thereof is the Servicer and the Swap Counterparty at 34 the time of delivery) and the Indenture Trustee to the effect that a review of the activities of the Servicer during the prior fiscal year (or since the Closing Date in the case of the first such Officer's Certificate) has been made under the supervision of the officer executing such Officer's Certificate with a view to determining whether during such period the Servicer has performed and observed all of its obligations under this Agreement, and either (i) stating that, to the best of his or her knowledge, no default by the Servicer under this Agreement has occurred and is continuing, or (ii) if such a default has occurred and is continuing, specifying such default and the nature and status thereof. (b) The Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Swap Counterparty (unless TMCC or an Affiliate thereof is the Servicer and the Swap Counterparty at the time of delivery) and the Rating Agencies, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officer's Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default under Section 8.01(a) or (b). SECTION 4.12 ANNUAL ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT. Within 120 days after March 31 of each fiscal year for the Servicer (commencing with the year ended March 31, 2002), the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee a report prepared by the Independent Accountants of the Servicer concerning their review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding 12-month period ended March 31 (or other applicable period in the case of the first such report or letter) to the effect that such accountants have reviewed certain records and documents relating to the servicing of the Receivables under this Agreement (using procedures specified in such report or letter) and as a result of such review, and in connection with such procedures, they are reporting such exceptions, if any, as shall be set forth therein. Such report or letter shall also indicate that the firm is independent with respect to the Seller and the Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In the event such Independent Accountants require the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee to agree to the procedures performed by such firm, the Servicer shall direct the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee need make no independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures. SECTION 4.13 ACCESS TO CERTAIN DOCUMENTATION AND INFORMATION REGARDING RECEIVABLES. The Servicer shall provide to the Swap Counterparty, the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee reasonable access to the documentation regarding the Receivables as provided in Section 3.03(b). The Servicer will provide such access to any Securityholder only in such cases where the Certificateholder or Noteholders shall be required by applicable statutes or regulations to review such documentation. In each case, such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during the normal business hours at the respective offices of the Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall derogate from the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors and 35 the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section. SECTION 4.14 APPOINTMENT OF SUBSERVICER. The Servicer may at any time appoint a subservicer to perform all or any portion of its obligations as Servicer hereunder if each Rating Agency has received reasonable advance notice of the Servicer's intention to do so and has not notified the Servicer that such an appointment would or might result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of a rating then assigned by such rating Agency to any Class of Notes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer shall remain obligated and be liable to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Swap Counterparty, the Certificateholder and the Noteholders for the servicing and administering of the Receivables in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation and liability by virtue of the appointment of such subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Receivables. The fees and expenses of the subservicer shall be as agreed between the Servicer and its subservicer from time to time, and none of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Swap Counterparty, the Certificateholder or the Noteholders shall have any responsibility therefor. SECTION 4.15 AMENDMENTS TO SCHEDULE OF RECEIVABLES. If the Servicer, during a Collection Period, assigns to a Receivable an account number that differs from the original account number identifying such Receivable on the Schedule of Receivables, the Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, on or before the Payment Date relating to such Collection Period, an amendment to the Schedule of Receivables reporting the newly assigned account number, together with the old account number of each such Receivable. The first such delivery of amendments to the Schedule of Receivables shall include monthly amendments reporting account numbers appearing on the Schedule of Receivables with the new account numbers assigned to such Receivables during any prior Collection Period. SECTION 4.16 REPORTS TO SECURITYHOLDERS AND RATING AGENCIES. The Owner Trustee shall send a copy of each Officer's Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 4.11 and each report of independent accountants delivered pursuant to Section 4.12 to the Rating Agencies within five days of its receipt thereof from the Servicer or accountants. A copy of any such Officer's Certificate or accountants report may be obtained by any Certificateholder, Noteholder or Note Owner by a request in writing to the Owner Trustee addressed as set forth in Section 10.03 hereof. Upon the telephone request of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee will promptly furnish the Owner Trustee a list of Noteholders as of the date specified by the Owner Trustee. ARTICLE V ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS AND DISTRIBUTIONS; STATEMENTS to SECURITYHOLDERS SECTION 5.01 ESTABLISHMENT OF COLLECTION ACCOUNT AND PAYAHEAD ACCOUNT. (a) The Servicer on behalf of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, shall establish the Collection Account and Payahead Account in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each such 36 account shall be an account initially established with the Indenture Trustee and maintained with the Indenture Trustee so long as (i) the commercial paper or other short-term unsecured debt obligations of the Indenture Trustee are rated "P-1" or better by Moody's, or if not so rated by Moody's then otherwise approved by Moody's, and "A-1+" or better by Standard & Poor's if rated by Standard & Poor's, or if not so rated by Standard & Poor's then otherwise approved by Standard & Poor's, in each case at the time of any deposit therein, or (ii) such account is a segregated trust account located in the corporate trust department of the Indenture Trustee bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein (other than interest or investment earnings thereon) are held in trust for the benefit of the Securityholders, and the Indenture Trustee has a long-term deposit rating from Moody's (so long as Moody's is a Rating Agency) of at least "A1" (or such lower rating as Moody's shall approve in writing) and corporate trust powers under applicable federal and state laws and is organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in the event that the Indenture Trustee no longer meets either of the foregoing requirements, then the Servicer shall, with the Indenture Trustee's assistance as necessary, cause the Collection Account and Payahead Account to be moved to a bank or trust company that satisfies either of such requirements. (b) For so long as the depository institution or trust company then maintaining the Collection Account and Payahead Account meets the requirements of Section 5.01(a)(i) or (a)(ii), all amounts held in these accounts shall, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations, be invested, as directed in writing by the Servicer, in Eligible Investments; otherwise such amounts shall be maintained in cash. Earnings on investment of funds in these accounts (net of losses and investment expenses) shall be paid to the Servicer on each Payment Date as servicing compensation, and any losses and investment expenses shall be charged against the funds on deposit in the related account. (c) For so long as Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association is the Relevant Trustee, the Collection Account and Payahead Account shall be maintained with Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association as described in clause (ii) of the second sentence of Section 5.01(a). In the event that the long-term debt rating of the Relevant Trustee does not satisfy clause (ii) of the second sentence of Section 5.01(a), the Servicer shall, with the assistance of the Relevant Trustee as necessary, cause the Collection Account and the Payahead Account to be moved to an institution or an account otherwise satisfying the requirements of Section 5.01(a). (d) Subject to the foregoing, the Servicer, on behalf of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, shall establish and maintain as the Collection Account an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of and under the exclusive control of the Indenture Trustee, bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Certificateholder. On the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee will transfer, or cause to be transferred, to such Collection Account all funds or investments on deposit in the Collection Account established pursuant to the Trust Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholder, and all of the proceeds thereof, and will transfer all of its right, title and interest in the Collection Account, all funds or investments held or to be held therein and all proceeds thereof, whether or not on behalf of the Certificateholder, to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Swap Counterparty, the Noteholders and Certificateholder. The Indenture Trustee will be obligated to transfer all amounts remaining on deposit in the Collection Account 37 on the Payment Date on which the Notes of all Classes have been paid in full and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement has been terminated and all Swap Payments Outgoing and all Swap Termination Payments payable to the Swap Counterparty have been paid (or substantially all of the Trust Estate is otherwise released from the lien of the Indenture) to the Collection Account established pursuant to the Trust Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholder, and to take all necessary or appropriate actions to transfer all of its right, title and interest in the Collection Account, all funds or investments held or to be held therein and all proceeds thereof, whether or not on behalf of the Swap Counterparty or the Noteholders and the Certificateholder, to the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholder, subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture with respect to amounts held for payment to the Swap Counterparty or to Noteholders that do not promptly deliver a Note for payment on such Payment Date. (e) With respect to the Collection Account and all property held therein, the Owner Trustee agrees, by its acceptance hereof that, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, for so long as Notes of any Class or the Interest Rate Swap Agreement remain outstanding, the Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest therein (excluding interest or investment income thereon payable to the Servicer), and that such account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Swap Counterparty and the Noteholders and the Certificateholder, as the case may be, as set forth in the Indenture. Subject to the right of the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals therefrom, as directed by the Servicer, for the purposes and in the amounts set forth in Section 5.06, the Payahead Account and all funds held therein shall be the property of the Servicer and not the property of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer, Owner Trustee, Seller and Indenture Trustee will treat the Payahead Account, all funds therein and all net investment income with respect thereto as assets of the Servicer for federal income tax and all other purposes. The parties hereto agree that the Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Indenture Trustee or by the Owner Trustee with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, to instruct the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Collection Account and the Payahead Account for the purpose of permitting the Servicer, Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee to carry out its respective duties hereunder or under the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, as the case may be. SECTION 5.02 COLLECTIONS. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall remit daily to the Collection Account all payments received by or on behalf of the Obligors on or in respect of the Receivables (other than, in the case of Precomputed Receivables, payments constituting Payments Ahead) and all Net Liquidation Proceeds within two Business Days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as the Monthly Remittance Conditions are satisfied, the Servicer shall not be required to remit such collections to the Collection Account on the foregoing daily basis but shall be entitled to retain such collections, without segregation from its other funds, until the Business Day before each Payment Date at which time the Servicer shall remit all such collections in respect of the related Collection Period to the Collection Account in immediately available funds. Commencing with the first day of the first Collection Period that begins at least two Business Days after the day on which any Monthly Remittance Condition ceases to be satisfied and for so long as any Monthly Remittance Condition is not satisfied, all collections then held by the Servicer shall be immediately deposited into the Collection Account and all future collections on or in respect of 38 the Receivables and all Net Liquidation Proceeds shall be remitted by the Servicer to the Collection Account on a daily basis within two Business Days after receipt thereof. (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall deposit all Payments Ahead in the Collection Account within two Business Days after receipt thereof, which Payments Ahead shall be transferred to the Payahead Account pursuant to Section 5.06(a)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as all Monthly Remittance Conditions are satisfied, the Servicer will not be required to deposit Payments Ahead in the Payahead Account within two Business Days after receipt thereof but shall be entitled to retain such Payments Ahead, without segregation from its other funds, until such time as the Servicer shall be required to remit Applied Payments Ahead to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.06(a)(i). Commencing with the first day of the first Collection Period that begins at least two Business Days after the day on which any Monthly Remittance Condition ceases to be satisfied and for so long as all Monthly Remittance Conditions are not satisfied, all Payments Ahead then held by the Servicer shall be immediately deposited into the Payahead Account and all future Payments Ahead shall be remitted by the Servicer to the Payahead Account within two Business Days after receipt thereof. (c) The Servicer shall give the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency written notice of the failure of any Monthly Remittance Condition (and any subsequent curing of a failed Monthly Remittance Condition) as soon as practical after the occurrence thereof. Notwithstanding the failure of any Monthly Remittance Condition, the Servicer may utilize an alternative collection or Payment Ahead remittance schedule (which may be the remittance schedule previously utilized prior to the failure of such Monthly Remittance Condition), if the Servicer provides to the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such alternative remittance schedule will not result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the rating then assigned to any Class of Notes. SECTION 5.03 APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS. As of the Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date, all collections for the related Collection Period shall be applied by the Servicer as follows: (a) With respect to each Receivable (other than an Administrative Receivable or a Warranty Receivable), payments made by or on behalf of the Obligor which are not Supplemental Servicing Fees shall be applied first to reimburse the Servicer for Outstanding Advances made with respect to such Receivable (each such payment, an "Overdue Payment"). Next, the amount of any payment in excess of Supplemental Servicing Fees and Outstanding Advances with respect to such Receivable shall be applied to the Scheduled Payment with respect to such Receivable. If the amount of such payment remaining after the applications described in the two preceding sentences (i) equals (together with any Deferred Prepayment) the unpaid principal balance of such Receivable, it shall be applied to prepay the principal balance of such Receivable, or (ii) is less than the unpaid principal balance of such Receivable, it shall constitute an Excess Payment with respect to such Receivable. (b) With respect to each Administrative Receivable and Warranty Receivable, payments made by or on behalf of the Obligor shall be applied in the same manner, except that any Released Administrative Amount or Released Warranty Amount shall be remitted to the 39 Servicer or the Seller, as applicable. A Warranty Purchase Payment or an Administrative Purchase Payment with respect to any Receivable shall be applied, first, to reduce Outstanding Advances with respect to such Receivable and then to the Scheduled Payment, in each case to the extent that the payments by the Obligor shall be insufficient, and then to prepay the unpaid principal balance of such Receivable in full. SECTION 5.04 ADVANCES; SWAP PAYMENTS. (a) As of the close of business on the last day of each Collection Period, if the payments by or on behalf of the Obligor on a Precomputed Receivable (other than an Administrative Receivable or a Warranty Receivable) after application under Section 5.03(a) shall be less than the Scheduled Payment (determined as of the Closing Date), whether as a result of any modification or extension granted to the Obligor or otherwise, then the Deferred Prepayment, if any, with respect to such Precomputed Receivable shall be applied by the Servicer to the extent of the shortfall, and such Deferred Prepayment shall be reduced accordingly. Subject to the provisions of the last sentence of this paragraph, the Servicer shall deposit an amount equal to such shortfall (each, a "Precomputed Advance") in the Collection Account on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date. In addition, as of the last day of a Collection Period, if the payments during such Collection Period by or on behalf of the Obligor on or in respect of a Simple Interest Receivable (other than an Administrative Receivable or a Warranty Receivable) after application under Section 5.03(a) shall be less than the Scheduled Payment (determined as of the Closing Date), whether as a result of any modification or extension granted to the Obligor or otherwise, then an amount equal to the product of the principal balance of such Receivable as of the first day of the related Collection Period and one-twelfth of its Annual Percentage Rate minus the amount of interest actually received on such Receivable during the Collection Period (each, a "Simple Interest Advance") shall be deposited by the Servicer into the Collection Account on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Payment Date. If such a calculation in respect of a Simple Interest Receivable results in a negative number, an amount equal to such negative amount shall be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of any outstanding Simple Interest Advances made with respect to such Receivable. In addition, in the event that a Simple Interest Receivable becomes a Liquidated Receivable, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not including interest for the current Collection Period) shall, up to the amount of any outstanding Simple Interest Advances made with respect to such Receivable, be withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of such outstanding Simple Interest Advances. No Advances will be made with respect to the Principal Balance of Simple Interest Receivables. The Servicer shall not be required to make an Advance (other than a Simple Interest Advance in respect of an interest shortfall arising from the Prepayment of a Simple Interest Receivable) to the extent that the Servicer, in its sole discretion, shall determine that such Advance is unlikely to be recovered from subsequent payments made by or on behalf of the related Obligor, Liquidation Proceeds, by the Administrative Purchase Payment or by the Warranty Purchase Payment with respect to such Receivable or otherwise.

(c) To the extent that the Servicer has determined that any Outstanding Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Servicer may, in the relevant Servicer's Certificate, set forth the amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance, and on the related Payment Date, the Relevant Trustee shall promptly remit to the Servicer from Actual Payments on deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Servicer's determination of Available Collections for any Collection Period shall take into account the amount of Nonrecoverable Advances specified in any such Officer's Certificate. (d) For so long as the Monthly Remittance Conditions are satisfied, in lieu of causing the Servicer first to deposit and then the Relevant Trustee to remit to the Servicer the amounts described in clauses (i) through (iii) in Section 5.04(b) reimbursable in respect on Outstanding Advances, or the amounts described in Section 5.04(c) applicable in respect of Nonrecoverable Advances, the Servicer may deduct such amounts from deposits otherwise to be made into the Collection Account.

With respect to the final payment upon retirement of a Note or of the Certificate, the Servicer shall on the relevant final Payment Date instruct the Relevant Trustee to pay or distribute the amounts due thereon only upon delivery for cancellation of the certificate representing such Note or Certificate in accordance with the Indenture or the Trust Agreement, as the case may be. SECTION 5.07 RESERVE ACCOUNT. (a) In order to assure that certain amounts will be available to make required payments to Noteholders, the Seller will, pursuant to the Securities Account Control Agreement and the Indenture, establish and maintain with the Indenture Trustee a segregated trust account (the "Reserve Account") which will include the money and other property deposited and held therein pursuant to Section 5.06(c)(i)(D) and this Section. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall deposit an amount equal to the Reserve Account Initial Deposit into the Reserve Account. As and to the extent set forth in Section 5.06(c)(i)(D), as directed in writing by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee will deposit Available Collections into the Reserve Account on each Payment Date, until the amount on deposit therein equals the Specified Reserve Account Balance. On each Payment Date, to the extent that Available Collections are insufficient to fully fund the payments and distributions described in clauses (i)(A) through (C) of Section 5.06(c) or in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 5.06(d), the Indenture Trustee will withdraw amounts then on deposit in the Reserve Account (excluding net investment income on Eligible Investments which amounts are payable to the Seller therefrom), up to the amounts of any such deficiencies, and deposit such amounts into the Collection Account for application pursuant to such clauses. Also on each Payment Date, as directed in writing by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee will release to the Seller any amounts remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account in excess of the Specified Reserve Account Balance. Also, upon the termination of the trusts established under the Trust Agreement and the Indenture, as directed in writing by the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee will release to the Seller any amounts remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account. Upon any such distribution to the Seller, the Issuer, Owner Trustee, Certificateholder, Indenture Trustee and Noteholders will have no further rights in, or claims to, such amounts. (b) All amounts held in the Reserve Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee, as directed in writing by the Servicer, in Eligible Investments. Earnings on investment of funds in the Reserve Account shall be paid to the Seller on each Payment Date, and losses and any investment expenses shall be charged against the funds on deposit therein. The Indenture Trustee shall incur no liability for the selection of investments or for losses thereon absent its own negligence or willful misfeasance. The Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity date or the failure of the Servicer to provide timely written investment directions. (c) Subject to the right of the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals therefrom, as directed by the Servicer, for the purposes and in the amounts set forth in Section 5.06, the Reserve Account and all funds held therein shall be the property of the Seller and not the property of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer, Owner Trustee, Seller and Indenture Trustee will treat the Reserve Account, all funds therein and all net investment income with respect thereto as assets of the Seller for federal income tax and all other purposes. 45 (d) The Seller will grant to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, a security interest in all funds (including Eligible Investments) in the Reserve Account (including the Reserve Account Initial Deposit) and the proceeds thereof, and the Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights of a secured party under the UCC with respect thereto; provided that all income from the investment of funds in the Reserve Account and the right to receive such income are retained by the Seller and are not transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed hereunder. If for any reason the Reserve Account is no longer an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly cause the Reserve Account to be moved to another institution or otherwise changed so that the Reserve Account becomes an Eligible Deposit Account. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall enter into any subordination or intercreditor agreement with respect to the Reserve Account.

SECTION 5.09 NET DEPOSITS. As an administrative convenience, the Seller, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may make any remittances pursuant to this Article net of amounts to be distributed by the applicable recipient to such remitting party. Nonetheless, each such party shall account to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder for all of the above described remittances, payments and distributions as if all deposits, payments, distributions and transfers were made individually.

Any corporation (a) into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, (b) which may result from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party or (c) which may succeed to all or substantially all of the business of the Servicer, which corporation in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement, shall be the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 7.01 shall have been breached (except that the representations regarding the due organization and valid existence of the successor may be deemed to reference jurisdictions other than California), and no Servicer Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default, shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, (iii) the Servicer shall have given 10 days' written notice to each Rating Agency of its intent or expectation to enter such transaction and neither Rating Agency shall have notified the Seller, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee that such transaction might or would cause it to reduce, withdraw or modify its then current rating of any Class of Notes, (iv) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, the successor to the Servicer shall become the Administrator under the Administration Agreement in 53 accordance with Section 8 of such Agreement and (v) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Receivables and reciting the details of such filings or (B) no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clause (a), (b) or (c) above. SECTION 7.04 LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF SERVICER AND OTHERS. Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Seller, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholder, except as provided under this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its duties to service the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer may (with the written consent of the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee) undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of the Basic Documents and the rights and duties of the parties to the Basic Documents and the interests of the Certificateholder under this Agreement and the Noteholders under the Indenture. In such event, the reasonable legal expenses and costs for such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Estate (if any Notes are then outstanding) or the Owner Trust Estate (if no Notes are then outstanding) and the Servicer will be entitled to be reimbursed therefor solely from Available Collections.

No such resignation shall become effective until the Indenture Trustee or a successor Servicer shall have (i) assumed the responsibilities and obligations of TMCC in accordance with Section 54 8.02 and (ii) become the Administrator under the Administration Agreement in accordance with Section 8 of such Agreement. ARTICLE VIII DEFAULT SECTION 8.01 SERVICER DEFAULT.

By the 55 same required vote, the Noteholders specified in the prior sentence may waive any such Servicer Default (other than a default in the making of any required deposits or payments from or to the Collection Account, Reserve Account or Payahead Account) for a specified period or permanently. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 8.02 APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR. (a) Upon the Servicer's receipt of notice of termination pursuant to Section 8.01 or the Servicer's resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the predecessor Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, in the case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until receipt of such notice and, in the case of resignation, until the later of (i) the date 45 days from the delivery to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or written confirmation of such notice) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) the date upon which the predecessor Servicer shall become unable to act as Servicer, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel.

The predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the Successor Servicer and the Owner Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the predecessor Servicer, in the Collection Account or Payahead Account or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables and all Payments Ahead that shall at that time be held by the predecessor Servicer. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Receivable Files to the Successor Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. In the event that the Indenture Trustee succeeds to the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder, and a subsequent transfer of such rights and obligations is effected pursuant to Section 8.01 or this Section 8.02 hereof, the original Servicer hereunder shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable costs and expenses as described in the immediately preceding sentence. Upon receipt of notice of the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Indenture Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Rating Agencies. SECTION 8.03 REPAYMENT OF ADVANCES; COMPENSATION PAYABLE.

To exercise such option, the Servicer, or any successor to the Servicer, shall notify the Swap Counterparty, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of its intention to do so in writing, no later than the tenth day of the month preceding the month in which the Payment Date as of which such purchase is to be effected and shall, on or before the Payment Date on which such purchase is to occur, deposit pursuant to Section 5.05 in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Optional Purchase Price, and shall succeed to all interests in and to the Trust Estate and the Owner Trust Estate.

The Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer and assignment and take such other actions as shall be reasonably requested by the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, to effect the conveyance of such Receivable pursuant to this Section. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it is held that the Seller or Servicer may not enforce a repurchased Receivable on the ground that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer and the Certificateholder, and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders shall, at the written direction and expense of the Seller or Servicer, as the case may be, take such reasonable steps as the Seller or Servicer deems necessary to enforce the Receivable, including bringing suit in the name or names of the Issuer, Certificateholder or Noteholders. 58 SECTION 9.02 TERMINATION OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT.

(a) The Note Registrar shall maintain a Note Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes as provided in this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially appointed Note Registrar for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes as provided in this Indenture.

In the event that a transfer is to be made as described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, the prospective transferee shall deliver or cause to be delivered an Opinion of Counsel in the form and substance satisfactory to the Issuer to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state or foreign securities laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made to an institutional accredited investor as described in clause (iv), the Indenture Trustee shall require that the transferee execute a representation letter acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuer certifying to the Indenture Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which representation shall not be an expense of the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer. In the case of a transfer under either clause (ii) or clause (iv), the Holder of a Class A-1 Note desiring to effect such transfer, shall and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state and foreign securities laws. Neither the Servicer, the Issuer nor the Indenture Trustee is under any obligation to register any Class A-1 Notes under the Securities Act or any applicable state or foreign securities laws. Prospective purchasers of the Class A-1 Notes are hereby notified that the seller of any Class A-1 Notes may be relying on the exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act provided by Rule 144A under the Act.

(c) Upon the proper surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.02, the Issuer shall execute, and 12 the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Class in authorized denominations of a like aggregate principal amount. (d) At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. (e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Indenture Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes. (f) All Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed pursuant to Section 2.08. SECTION 2.05 MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN NOTES. If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute, and upon its request the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class. In connection with the issuance of any new Note under this Section, the Issuer may require payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith. Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time 13 enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of the same Class duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. SECTION 2.06 PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. SECTION 2.07 PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. (a) The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes shall accrue interest during each Interest Period at the Class A-1 Rate, the Class A-2 Rate, the Class A-3 Rate and the Class A-4 Rate, respectively, and such interest shall be payable on each related Payment Date as specified in such Notes, pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 3.01 hereof. Any installment of interest or principal payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such Person. (b) The principal of each Note shall be payable in installments on each Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and subject to the availability of funds therefor. All principal payments on each Class of Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders of such Class entitled thereto. In accordance with Section 10.01, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Payment Date on which the final installment of principal of and interest on such Note will be paid. Such notice shall be mailed or transmitted by facsimile not less than 15 nor more than 30 days prior to such final Payment Date, shall specify that such final installment will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for payment of such installment. (c) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust's payment (or allocations of income) to the Noteholders, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Noteholders in accordance with this Section. The Issuer will instruct the Indenture Trustee regarding the imposition of such withholding tax and, upon receiving such instruction, the Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Noteholders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Indenture Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax 14 imposed with respect to the Noteholders shall be treated as cash distributed to the Noteholders at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to any distribution (such as any distribution to a Non-U.S. Person), the Indenture Trustee may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c). In the event that any Noteholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Noteholder in making such claim so long as the Noteholder agrees to reimburse the Indenture Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. SECTION 2.08 CANCELLATION. All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee, be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by the Indenture Trustee.

The Issuer will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer hereby initially appoints Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association to serve as its agent for the foregoing purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Indenture Trustee of the location, and of any change in the location, of any such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Indenture Trustee with the address thereof, such surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office, and the Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its agent to receive all such surrenders, notices and demands. SECTION 3.03 MONEY FOR PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST. All payments of amounts due and payable with respect to any Notes or the Certificate or to the Swap Counterparty (to the extent such payments to the Swap Counterparty were not deducted from amounts remitted to the Collection Account by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.04(e) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement) that are to be made from amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account, Principal Distribution Account or Reserve Fund (provided that only the Collection Account is available for any amounts payable to the Swap Counterparty) pursuant to Sections 2.07, 3.01, 4.02 and 4.03 shall be made on behalf of the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by a Paying Agent, and no amounts so withdrawn from such accounts for payments of Notes or the Certificate or to the Swap Counterparty (provided that such amounts payable to the Swap Counterparty were not deducted from amounts remitted to the Collection Account by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.04(e) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement) shall be paid over to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Administrator except as provided in this Section. On or before each Payment Date, the Issuer shall deposit in the Collection Account or, in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement, cause to be deposited (including the provision of instructions to the Indenture Trustee to make any required withdrawals from the Payahead Account or Reserve Account and to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account) to the extent of funds available therefor, an aggregate sum sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due under the Notes and the Certificate, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless the Paying Agent is the Indenture Trustee) shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of its action or failure so to act. The Indenture Trustee, as Paying Agent, hereby agrees with the Issuer that it will, and the Issuer will cause each Paying Agent other than the Indenture Trustee, as a condition to its acceptance of its appointment as Paying Agent, to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Indenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: (a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes or the Certificate or to the Swap Counterparty or for release to the Issuer for payment to the Certificateholder in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay or release such sums to such Persons as herein provided; 18 (b) give the Indenture Trustee notice of any default by the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) of which it has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes or to the Swap Counterparty or the release of any amounts to the Issuer to be paid to the Certificateholder; (c) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Indenture Trustee, forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent; (d) immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes (or for release to the Issuer) or to the Swap Counterparty if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Paying Agent at the time of its appointment; and (e) comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes or the Certificate (or assisting the Issuer to withhold from payment to the Certificateholder) or to the Swap Counterparty of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith. The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, by Issuer Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Indenture Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Indenture Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Indenture Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Indenture Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed after such amount has become due and payable and after the Indenture Trustee has taken the steps described in the next paragraph shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the California Special Olympics upon presentation thereto of an Issuer Request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Indenture Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease. In the event that any Noteholder shall not surrender its Notes for retirement within six months after the date specified in the written notice of final payment described in Section 2.07, the Indenture will give a second written notice to the registered Noteholders that have not surrendered their Notes for final payment and retirement. If within one year after such second notice any Notes have not been surrendered, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be paid to California Special Olympics. The Indenture Trustee 19 shall also adopt and employ, at the expense and direction of the Issuer, any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment specified by the Issuer or the Administrator. SECTION 3.04 EXISTENCE. The Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a business trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other State or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral and each other instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate or the Owner Trust Estate. SECTION 3.05 PROTECTION OF TRUST ESTATE. The Issuer will from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and all such financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and will take such other action necessary or advisable to: (a) maintain or preserve the lien and security interest (and the priority thereof) of this Indenture or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof; (b) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any Grant made or to be made by this Indenture; (c) enforce any of the Collateral (including all rights under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement); or (d) preserve and defend title to the Trust Estate and the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders in such Trust Estate against the claims of all persons and parties. The Issuer hereby designates the Indenture Trustee its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement, continuation statement or other instrument required to be executed pursuant to this Section 3.05. SECTION 3.06 OPINIONS AS TO TRUST ESTATE. (a) On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the execution, recording and filing of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, any requisite financing statements and continuation statements and any other requisite documents necessary to perfect and make effective the lien and security interest of this Indenture or stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to make such lien and security interest effective. (b) As and when specified in Section 10.02(h) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the execution, recording, filing or re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, any financing statements and continuation statements and any other requisite documents necessary to 20 maintain the lien and security interest created by this Indenture or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to maintain such lien and security interest. Such Opinion of Counsel shall also describe the execution, recording, filing or re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any indentures supplemental hereto, any financing statements and continuation statements and any other documents that will, in the opinion of such counsel, be required to maintain the lien and security interest of this Indenture until the date in the following calendar year on which such Opinion of Counsel must again be delivered. SECTION 3.07 PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS; SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES. (a) The Issuer will not take any action and will use its best efforts not to permit any action to be taken by others that would release any Person from any of such Person's material covenants or obligations under any instrument or agreement included in the Trust Estate or that would result in the amendment, hypothecation, subordination, termination or discharge of, or impair the validity or effectiveness of, any such instrument or agreement, except in each case as expressly provided in the Basic Documents and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. (b) The Issuer may contract with other Persons to assist it in performing its duties under this Indenture, and any performance of such duties by a Person identified to the Indenture Trustee in an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer shall be deemed to be action taken by the Issuer. Initially, the Issuer has contracted with the Servicer and the Administrator to assist the Issuer in performing its duties under this Indenture. (c) The Issuer will punctually perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained in the Basic Documents and in the instruments and agreements included in the Trust Estate, including but not limited to filing or causing to be filed all UCC financing statements and continuation statements required to be filed by the terms of the Trust Agreement, this Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with and within the time periods provided for herein and therein. (d) If an Authorized Officer of the Issuer shall have knowledge of the occurrence of a Servicer Default under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and shall specify in such notice the action, if any, the Issuer is taking with respect of such default, and the Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of such Servicer Default and proposed actions of the Issuer. If a Servicer Default shall arise from the failure of the Servicer to perform any of its duties or obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Receivables, the Issuer shall take all reasonable steps available to it to remedy such failure. (e) As promptly as possible after the giving of notice of termination to the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and powers pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or if the Servicer resigns in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice of such event to the Noteholders and each Rating Agency and shall act to appoint a successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer"). Any such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event that a Successor Servicer has not been appointed and accepted its appointment as set forth in Section 8.02 of the Sale and Servicing 21 Agreement, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the Successor Servicer and shall thereafter be entitled to the Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture Trustee shall, if it shall be unwilling or legally unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established institution having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of automobile and/or light-duty truck receivables, as the successor to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon such appointment, the Indenture Trustee will be released from the duties and obligations of acting as Successor Servicer, such release effective upon the effective date of the servicing agreement entered into between the Successor Servicer and the Issuer. In connection with any such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor as it and such Successor Servicer shall agree, subject to the limitations set forth below and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and in accordance with Section 8.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer shall enter into an agreement with such successor for the servicing of the Receivables (such agreement to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee). If the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the Servicer's duties as servicer of the Receivables as provided herein, it shall do so in its individual capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VI hereof shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as Successor Servicer and the servicing of the Receivables. In case the Indenture Trustee shall become the Successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to appoint as a subservicer any one of its affiliates, provided that the Indenture Trustee, in its capacity as Successor Servicer, shall remain fully liable for the actions and omissions of such Affiliate. (f) Without derogating from the absolute nature of the assignment granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture or the rights of the Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Issuer agrees that it will not enter into any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver with respect to any Basic Document and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement except (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement or for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions in this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder, and in each case with the consent of the Indenture Trustee (but without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder) and delivery of an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, to the effect that such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder or the Certificateholder; (ii) for the purpose of changing the formula for determining the Specified Reserve Account Balance, the manner in which the Reserve Account is funded, changing the remittance schedule for the deposit of collections with respect to the Receivables in the Collection Account or Payahead Account pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or changing the definition of Eligible Investment, in each case with the consent of the Indenture Trustee (but without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder) if the Indenture Trustee and/or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, has received a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such Rating Agency will not qualify, reduce or withdraw the rating it has currently assigned to any Class of Notes as a result of such amendment (provided that no such amendment may increase or reduce in any manner or accelerate or delay the timing of collections on the Receivables or payments required to be made to any Class of Notes or the Certificate without the consent of all Holders of 22 each affected Class); or (iii) with the consent of the Indenture Trustee and satisfaction of all other conditions precedent to such action set forth in the related Basic Document and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. If any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be so consented to by the Indenture Trustee or such Holders, as applicable, the Issuer agrees, promptly following a request by the Indenture Trustee to agree to such amendment and to execute and deliver, in its own name and at its own expense, such agreements, instruments, consents and other documents as the Indenture Trustee may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances to implement such amendment and to cause the relevant Basic Documents and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, as amended, to be enforceable against the Issuer. SECTION 3.08 NEGATIVE COVENANTS. So long as any Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer shall not: (a) except as expressly permitted by Basic Documents, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of any of the properties or assets of the Issuer, including those included in the Trust Estate, unless directed to do so by the Indenture Trustee; (b) claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code) or assert any claim against any present or former Noteholder by reason of the payment of the taxes levied or assessed upon any part of the Trust Estate; (c) except as may be expressly permitted hereby and by the Basic Documents, (A) permit the validity or effectiveness of this Indenture to be impaired, or permit the lien of this Indenture to be amended, hypothecated, subordinated, terminated or discharged, or permit any Person to be released from any covenants or obligations with respect to the Notes under this Indenture, (B) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim, security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance (other than the lien of this Indenture) to be created on or extend to or otherwise arise upon or burden the Trust Estate or any part thereof or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof (other than tax liens, mechanics' liens and other liens that arise by operation of law, in each case on any of the Financed Vehicles and arising solely as a result of an action or omission of the related Obligor), (C) permit the lien of this Indenture not to constitute a valid first priority (other than with respect to any such tax, mechanics' or other lien) security interest in the Trust Estate or (D) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part; or (d) assume or incur any indebtedness other than the Notes or as expressly contemplated by this Indenture (in connection with the obligation to reimburse Advances from the Trust Estate, or to pay expenses from the Trust Estate) or by the Basic Documents as in effect on the date hereof. SECTION 3.09 ANNUAL STATEMENT AS TO COMPLIANCE. The Issuer will cause the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee concurrently with its delivery thereof to the Issuer the annual statement of compliance described in Section 4.11 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. In addition, on the same date annually upon which such annual statement of compliance is to be delivered by the Servicer, the Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating, as to the Authorized Officer signing such Officer's Certificate, that: 23 (a) a review of the activities of the Issuer during such year and of its performance under this Indenture has been made under such Authorized Officer's supervision; and (b) to the best of such Authorized Officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Issuer has complied with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in its compliance with any such condition or covenant, specifying each such default known to such Authorized Officer and the nature and status thereof.

ARTICLE V REMEDIES SECTION 5.01 EVENTS OF DEFAULT. "Event of Default," wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): (a) default in the payment of any interest on any Class A Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of five days; or (b) default in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable; or (c) default in the observance or performance of any covenant or agreement of the Issuer made in this Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement, a default in the observance or performance of which is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with) which shall continue or not be cured for a period of 90 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes acting together as a single class, a written notice specifying such default and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a notice of Default hereunder; (d) any representation or warranty of the Issuer made in this Indenture or in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall have been made, and such default shall continue or not be cured, or the circumstance or condition in respect of which such misrepresentation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured, for a period of 30 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes acting together as a single class, a written notice specifying such incorrect representation or warranty and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a notice of Default hereunder; or (e) the filing of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the Issuer or any substantial part of the Trust Estate in an involuntary case under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or 29 hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or for any substantial part of the Trust Estate, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the Issuer's affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; (f) the commencement by the Issuer of a voluntary case under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or the consent by the Issuer to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or the consent by the Issuer to the appointment or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or for any substantial part of the Trust Estate, or the making by the Issuer of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure by the Issuer generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of any action by the Issuer in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or (g) termination of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement on the Early Termination Date (as defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement), without the execution by the Trust and a replacement Swap Counterparty of a replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement with substantially the same terms as the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and acceptable to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and the assignment of such replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement to the Indenture Trustee. For purposes of determining whether an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5.01(b) has occurred, the amount of principal required to be paid to the Holders of any Class of Notes on any Payment Date is the amount available to be paid thereto as principal pursuant to Sections 5.06(c) and (d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided however that (i) the Class A-1 Notes are required to be paid in full on or before the Class A-1 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that Holders of Class A-1 Notes are entitled to have received on or before such date payments in respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-1 Initial Principal Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through such date; (ii) the Class A-2 Notes are required to be paid in full on or before the Class A-2 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that Holders of Class A-2 Notes are entitled to have received on or before such date payments in respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-2 Initial Principal Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through such date, (iii) the Class A-3 Notes are required to be paid in full on or before the Class A-3 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that Holders of Class A-3 Notes are entitled to have received on or before such date payments in respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-3 Initial Principal Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through such date and (iv) the Class A-4 Notes are required to be paid in full on or before the Class A-4 Final Scheduled Payment Date, meaning that Holders of Class A-4 Notes are entitled to have received on or before such date payments in respect of principal in an aggregate amount equal to the Class A-4 Initial Principal Balance together with all interest accrued thereon through such date. The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Swap Counterparty, within five days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer's Certificate of any Default which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under clause (c), the status of such Default and any action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 30 SECTION 5.02 ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes acting together as a single Class (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates), may, without the consent of the Certificateholder, declare all the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid principal amount of such Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable. At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of Class A Notes representing at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates), acting together as a single Class, without the consent of the Certificateholder, in each case, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: (a) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: (i) all payments of principal of and interest on the respective Class of Notes and all other amounts that would then be due hereunder (including all payments payable to the Swap Counterparty under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) or in accordance with the terms of the Notes if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and (ii) all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and (b) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal or interest of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 5.03 COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) Default is made in the payment of any interest on any Class A Note, so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class A Notes, when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any 31 Note when the same becomes due and payable (as described in the penultimate paragraph of Section 5.01 hereof), the Issuer will, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on such Class of Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Notes and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel. (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes, wherever situated, the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable. (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.04, in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders and, incidentally thereto, the Certificateholder, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law. (d) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, then, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise: (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and the Certificate, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder allowed in such Proceedings; 32 (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings; (iii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders or the Certificateholder and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property; and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith. (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person. (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes or the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes and, incidentally thereto, for the benefit of the Certificateholder. (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings. SECTION 5.04 REMEDIES; PRIORITIES; INSOLVENCY OF SELLER. (a) If an Event of Default under Section 5.01 shall have occurred and be continuing which results in the acceleration of the Notes (whether or not the Trust Estate is sold in one or 33 more public or private sales as provided in Section 5.04(c)(iv)), and unless and until such acceleration has been rescinded, the Indenture Trustee will make payments on the Notes and the Certificate as set forth in Section 5.06(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, rather than pursuant to Section 5.06(c). (b) If the Indenture Trustee, in compliance with Section 5.04(a), is deemed to have a conflict of interest under the TIA and is required to resign as Indenture Trustee hereunder, the Indenture Trustee, pursuant to Section 6.10, may appoint an indenture trustee to act separately hereunder for the Class A Notes. In the event a separate indenture trustee is appointed for the Class A Notes, so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to the Class A Notes, only the Indenture Trustee for the Class A Noteholders shall be entitled to waive any Event of Default or Servicer Default or exercise any remedies under this Indenture. (c) In accordance with Section 5.03, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.05): (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes to the Swap Counterparty or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer, the Swap Counterparty and any other obligor upon such Notes moneys adjudged due; (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate; (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and (iv) sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described in Section 5.01(a) or (b), unless (A) the Holders of 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes consent thereto or (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Noteholders are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Trust Estate will not continue to provide sufficient funds on an ongoing basis to make all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of Holders of 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a single class). In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. In connection with any such sale, the Indenture Trustee will afford the Holders of each 34 Class of Notes adequate advance notice and information as to the conduct of such sale such that any such Holders (acting individually, as Classes, as a single Class or otherwise) will be reasonably able to submit bids for the purchase of the assets to be liquidated, and that the Indenture Trustee will consider any and all such bids on the same basis that it considers any other bids submitted by any other party or parties. The proceeds of such sale or liquidation (net of the expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the conduct thereof, which will be retained by the Indenture Trustee from such proceeds) will be treated as collections and deposited into the Collection Account by the Indenture Trustee for distribution to the Noteholders and the Certificateholder in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 5.06(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee will have no liability with respect to the amount of such proceeds or the adequacy thereof to make payments in full of any Class of Notes or the Certificate. The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before such record date, the Issuer shall mail to each Noteholder and the Indenture Trustee a notice that states the related record date, payment date and amount to be paid. (d) If an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Seller, the Indenture Trustee (or the Indenture Trustee for the Class A Notes, pursuant to Section 5.04(c)) will sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law and in a commercially reasonable manner and on commercially reasonable terms in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02 of the Trust Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indenture Trustee (or the Indenture Trustee for the Class A Notes, pursuant to Section 5.04(c)) may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate in connection with such event if, prior to the termination of the Trust Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Trust Agreement, the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes so long as any amounts remain unpaid with respect to such Notes (excluding from such action and calculation all Notes held by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates) notify the Indenture Trustee in writing that they disapprove of such sale or liquidation and the termination of trusts created hereby in connection therewith; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in connection with any such sale the Indenture Trustee will afford the Holders of each Class of Notes adequate advance notice and information as to the conduct of such sale such that any such Holders (acting individually, as Classes, as a single Class or otherwise) will be reasonably able to submit bids for the purchase of the assets to be liquidated, and that the Indenture Trustee will consider any and all such bids on the same basis that it considers any other bids submitted by any other party or parties. The proceeds of such sale or liquidation (net of the expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the conduct thereof, which will be retained by the Indenture Trustee from such proceeds) will be treated as collections and deposited into the Collection Account by the Indenture Trustee for distribution to the Noteholders and Certificateholders in accordance with the priorities specified in Section 5.06(d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Indenture Trustee will have no liability with respect to the amount of such proceeds or the adequacy thereof to make payments in full of any Class of Notes or the Certificate. The Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the commercial reasonableness of the conduct of any such sale or liquidation and as to the expenses incurred by 35 the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith, the costs of which may be retained by the Indenture Trustee from the proceeds of such sale or liquidation. SECTION 5.05 OPTIONAL PRESERVATION OF THE RECEIVABLES. Except as provided in Section 5.04(c)(iv), if the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, unless otherwise directed by the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together as a single class (excluding from such action and calculation all Notes held by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates), but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Trust Estate and direct the Issuer, Servicer and Administrator not to take steps to liquidate the Receivables. It is the desire of the parties hereto, the Swap Counterparty and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of any obligations under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to the Swap Counterparty and principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. SECTION 5.06 LIMITATION OF SUITS. No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless such Holder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, and: (a) the Event of Default arises from the Servicer's failure to remit payments when due or (b) the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together as a single class, have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder and have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request and the Indenture Trustee for 30 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings. It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided. SECTION 5.07 UNCONDITIONAL RIGHTS OF NOTEHOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (in each case with reference to the calculations to be made pursuant to the 36 Sale and Servicing Agreement) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. SECTION 5.08 RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted. SECTION 5.09 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. SECTION 5.10 DELAY OR OMISSION NOT A WAIVER. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be. SECTION 5.11 CONTROL BY NOTEHOLDERS. The Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes, acting together as a single class, shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that: (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture; (ii) any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be by Holders of Notes representing not less than percentages of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes of the relevant Class set forth in Section 5.04 or 5.05, as applicable (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates); and (iii) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. 37 Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section, subject to Sections 5.07 and 6.01, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines would be illegal or may not lawfully be taken, might subject it to personal liability or would be unduly prejudicial to the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action. SECTION 5.12 WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02 or the liquidation or sale of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04, the Holders of Class A Notes representing at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a single Class), without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates); may waive any past Default, Event of Default or Servicer Default and its consequences except a (a) Servicer Default in the deposit of collections or other required amounts into the Collection Account, Principal Distribution Account, Payahead Account or Reserve Fund, or (b) Default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 5.13 UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note or Note Owner by such Holder's acceptance of such Note or beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of Notes, or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture. SECTION 5.14 WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, 38 delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. SECTION 5.15 ACTION ON NOTES. The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.06. SECTION 5.16 PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS. (a) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so and at the Administrator's expense, the Issuer shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by the Seller, the Servicer and the Swap Counterparty, as applicable, of each of their obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement or by the Seller of its remedies under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller or the Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by the Seller or the Servicer of each of their respective obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the direction (which direction shall be in writing or by telephone, confirmed in writing promptly thereafter) of the Holders of 66-2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a single class but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates), shall exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Seller, the Servicer or the Swap Counterparty under or in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, against the Seller under or in connection with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, or against the Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by the Seller, the Servicer or the Administrator, of each of their obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension, or waiver thereunder and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended. 39 ARTICLE VI THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE SECTION 6.01 DUTIES OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) The Indenture Trustee, both prior to and after the occurrence of a Servicer Default under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. (b) The Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee that shall be specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture. (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, its own bad faith or its own willful misfeasance; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that: (i) the duties and obligations of the Indenture Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee, the permissive right of the Indenture Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee and conforming on their face to the requirements of this Indenture; (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in performing its duties in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a single class but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates) relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. Moreover, if more than one Indenture Trustee has been appointed, each Indenture Trustee shall owe any and 40 all fiduciary duties only to the Class or Classes of Notes on whose behalf it shall have been appointed. (d) The Indenture 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 under this Indenture, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. (e) All information obtained by the Indenture Trustee regarding the Obligors and the Receivables contained in the Trust, whether upon the exercise of its rights under this Indenture or otherwise, shall be maintained by the Indenture Trustee in confidence and shall not be disclosed to any other Person, unless such disclosure is required by any applicable law or regulation or pursuant to subpoena. (f) Pursuant to Sections 3.02 and 4.08 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, in the event that a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee discovers that a representation or warranty with respect to a Receivable was incorrect as of the time specified with respect to such representation and warranty or that a covenant of the Servicer has been breached, and such incorrectness or breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Servicer and the Owner Trustee of such incorrectness. SECTION 6.02 RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01: (i) the Indenture Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer's Certificate, certificate of an authorized signatory, 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; (ii) the Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it under this Indenture in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel; (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Indenture, or in relation to this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby; 41 (iv) the Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; (v) the Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to recalculate, reverify, or make any investigation into the facts of 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 to do so by Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes (acting together as a single class but excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Indenture Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Indenture 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 Administrator or, if paid by the Indenture Trustee, shall be reimbursed by the Administrator upon demand; and nothing in this clause shall derogate from the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors; and (vi) the Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers under this Indenture or perform any duties under this Indenture either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian. (b) No Noteholder will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to this Indenture except upon satisfying the conditions set forth in Section 5.06. SECTION 6.03 INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the Holder, beneficial owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, in so doing the Indenture Trustee must comply with Sections 6.11 and 6.12. SECTION 6.04 INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER. The Indenture Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes or the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (other than the execution by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Trust of, and the certificate of authentication on, the Notes), or of the Certificate. The Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation to perform any of the duties of the Servicer or the Administrator unless explicitly set forth in this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of the Notes, the Interest Rate Swap Agreement or any Receivable, any ownership interest in any Financed Vehicle, or the maintenance of any such ownership interest, or for or with respect to the efficacy of the Trust or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Noteholders under this Indenture or to the Swap Counterparty under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, 42 including without limitation the validity of the assignment of the Receivables to the Trust or of any intervening assignment; the existence, condition, location and ownership of any Receivable or Financed Vehicle; the existence and enforceability of any physical damage or credit life or credit disability insurance; the existence and contents of any retail installment sales contract or any computer or other record thereof; the completeness of any retail installment sales contract; the performance or enforcement of any retail installment sales contract; the compliance by the Issuer with any covenant or the breach by the Issuer, Seller or Servicer of any warranty or representation made under this Indenture or in any Basic Document or other related document and the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to the Indenture Trustee's receipt of notice or other discovery of any noncompliance therewith or any breach thereof; the acts or omissions of the Issuer, Seller or the Servicer; or any action by the Indenture Trustee taken at the instruction of the Servicer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Indenture Trustee of its obligation to perform its duties under this Indenture. Except with respect to a claim based on the failure of the Indenture Trustee to perform its duties under this Indenture or based on the Indenture Trustee's willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence, no recourse shall be had for any claim based on any provision of this Indenture, the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Notes or the Certificate or assignment thereof against the institution serving as the Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity. The Indenture Trustee shall not have any personal obligation, liability or duty whatsoever to any Noteholder, the Swap Counterparty or any other Person with respect to any such claim, and any such claim shall be asserted solely against the Issuer or any indemnitor who shall furnish indemnity as provided in this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of any of the Notes or of the proceeds of such Notes, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Servicer in respect of the Notes. SECTION 6.05 NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. If a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee knows that a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder and the Swap Counterparty notice of such Default within 10 days of the discovery thereof. Except in the case of a Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold such notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders. SECTION 6.06 REPORTS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS. The Indenture Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered annually to each Noteholder of record such information as may be required to enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns. The Indenture Trustee shall also deliver or cause to be delivered annually to each Noteholder of record a report relating to its eligibility and qualification to continue as Indenture Trustee under this Indenture, any amounts advanced by it under this Indenture, the amount, interest rate and maturity date of certain indebtedness owed by the Issuer to such Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity, the property and funds physically held by such Indenture Trustee in its capacity as such, and any action taken by it that materially affects the Notes and that has not been previously reported. SECTION 6.07 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY. The Issuer shall pay or shall cause the Servicer to pay to the Indenture Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. The Indenture Trustee's compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall cause the Servicer to reimburse 43 the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee's agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Administrator shall indemnify or shall cause the Servicer to indemnify the Indenture Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Administrator and the Servicer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Administrator and the Servicer shall not relieve the Administrator or the Servicer of its obligations hereunder. In case any such action is brought against the Indenture Trustee under this Section 6.07 and it notifies the Administrator of the commencement thereof, the Administrator will assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee (who may, unless there is, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel to the Indenture Trustee stating that there is an unwaivable conflict of interest, be counsel to the Administrator), and neither the Administrator nor the Servicer will be liable to the Indenture Trustee under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation. Neither the Administrator nor the Servicer need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. The Administrator's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 5.01(e) or (f) or the Seller incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Seller, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. SECTION 6.08 REPLACEMENT OF INDENTURE TRUSTEE. The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by providing written notice of its resignation to the Issuer. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, may remove the Indenture Trustee if: (a) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11; (b) the Indenture Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent; (c) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property; or (d) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes legally or practically incapable of fulfilling its duties hereunder. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and no 44 appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.08. A successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee, to the Servicer and to the Administrator. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders and the Swap Counterparty. The retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee. If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Administrator or the Holders of a majority in Outstanding Amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder may at any time thereafter petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee. Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Issuer's and the Administrator's obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee. SECTION 6.09 SUCCESSOR INDENTURE TRUSTEE BY MERGER. If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee if such surviving Person or transferee corporation or bank shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Issuer, the Servicer and the Rating Agencies reasonable prior written notice of any such transaction. In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have. SECTION 6.10 APPOINTMENT OF CO-INDENTURE TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE INDENTURE TRUSTEE. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee shall have the power and may execute 45 and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, 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 and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 6.08 hereof. (b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in and/or directing such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture 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 Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee; (ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and (iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee. (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts thereupon conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee. (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the 46 Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee. SECTION 6.11 ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION. The Indenture Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Indenture Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition and it or its parent shall have a long-term debt rating of Baa3 or better by Moody's or shall otherwise be acceptable to Moody's. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), including the optional provision permitted by the second sentence of TIA Section 310(b)(9); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities of the Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met. SECTION 6.12 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST ISSUER. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated. SECTION 6.13 [RESERVED] SECTION 6.14 INTEREST RATE SWAP PROVISIONS. The Issuer has entered into the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, in a form satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, to hedge the floating rate interest expense on the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes. The Issuer may, from time to time, enter into one or more replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreements in the event that any Interest Rate Swap Agreement is terminated prior to its scheduled expiration pursuant to a Swap Event of Default or a Swap Termination Event. All Swap Payments Outgoing and Swap Termination Payments owed by the Issuer to the Swap Counterparty will rank senior to interest payments on the Class A Notes. (a) Except as provided in Section 5.04(e) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee will be responsible for remitting all Swap Payments Outgoing and any Swap Termination Payments payable to the Swap Counterparty and for collecting Swap Payments Incoming and any Swap Termination Payments payable by the Swap Counterparty. (b) Upon the occurrence of (i) any Swap Event of Default arising from any action taken, or failure to act, by the Swap Counterparty, or (ii) any Swap Termination Event (except as described in the following sentence) with respect to which the Swap Counterparty is an Affected Party (as defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement), the Indenture Trustee may and will, at the direction of the Holders of at least 51% of the Outstanding Amount of the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes and the Class A-4 Notes, acting together as a single Class (excluding for such purposes the outstanding principal amount of any Notes held of record or beneficially owned by TMCC, TAFR LLC or any of their Affiliates), designate an Early Termination Date (as defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) with respect to the Swap Agreement. If a Swap Termination Event occurs (i) as a result of the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer or the Swap Counterparty or (ii) because the Issuer or the Swap Counterparty becomes 47 subject to registration as an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Indenture Trustee will designate an Early Termination Date. (c) At least five days before the effective date of any proposed amendment or supplement to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Administrator shall provide the Rating Agencies with a copy of such amendment or supplement. Unless the amendment or supplement clarifies any term or provisions, corrects any inconsistency, cures any ambiguity, or corrects any typographical error in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, an amendment or supplement to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement will be effective only after satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. (d) The Administrator shall notify the Swap Counterparty of any proposed amendment or supplement to any of the Basic Documents. If such proposed amendment or supplement would adversely affect any of the Swap Counterparty's rights or obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement or modify the obligations of, or impair the ability of the Issuer to fully perform any of its obligations under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Administrator shall obtain the consent of the Swap Counterparty prior to the adoption of such amendment of supplement, provided, the Swap Counterparty's consent to any such amendment or supplement shall not be unreasonably withheld, and provided further, the Swap Counterparty's consent will be deemed to have been given if the Swap Counterparty does not object to writing within ten Business Days of receipt of a written request for such consent. ARTICLE VII NOTEHOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS SECTION 7.01 NOTE REGISTRAR TO FURNISH NAMES AND ADDRESSES OF NOTEHOLDERS. The Note Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee, Servicer or Administrator, within 15 days after receipt by the Note Registrar of a written request therefrom, a list of the names and addresses of the Noteholders of any Class as of the most recent Record Date. If three or more Holders of Notes of any Class, or one or more Holders of such Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of such Notes (hereinafter referred to as "Applicants"), apply in writing to the Indenture Trustee, and such application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Notes and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Indenture Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such Applicants access, during normal business hours, to the current list of Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee may elect not to afford the requesting Noteholders access to the list of Noteholders if it agrees to mail the desired communication by proxy, on behalf of and at the expense of the requesting Noteholders, to all Noteholders. Every Noteholder, by receiving and holding a Note, agrees with the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer that none of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Issuer, the Servicer or the Administrator shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders under this Indenture, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. 48 If the Indenture Trustee shall cease to be the Note Registrar, then thereafter the Administrator will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee not more than five days after the most recent Record Date or at such other times as the Indenture Trustee reasonably may request in writing, a list, in such form as the Indenture Trustee reasonably may require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes as of such Record Date. SECTION 7.02 PRESERVATION OF INFORMATION; COMMUNICATIONS TO NOTEHOLDERS. (a) The Indenture Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes contained in the most recent list furnished to the Indenture Trustee as provided in Section 7.01 and the names and addresses of Holders of Notes received by the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar. The Indenture Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in such Section 7.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. (b) Noteholders may communicate pursuant to TIA Section 312(b) with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the Notes. (c) The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar shall have the protection of TIA Section 3.12(c). SECTION 7.03 REPORTS BY ISSUER.

All income or other gain from investments of moneys deposited in the Collection Account and Payahead Account shall be deposited by the Indenture Trustee in the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer as servicing compensation on each Payment Date, and any loss resulting from such investments in excess of such income or gain (against which such losses will first be applied) shall be charged to such account. The Servicer will not direct the Indenture Trustee to make any investment of any funds or to sell any investment held in the Collection Account or Payahead Account unless the security interest granted and perfected in such account will continue to be perfected in such investment or the proceeds of such sale, in either case without any further action by any Person, and, in connection with any direction to the Indenture Trustee to make any such investment or sale, if requested by the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, to such effect. (b) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or a portion of the funds in the Reserve Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments and reinvested by the Indenture Trustee (by delivery to the Securities Intermediary of appropriate Entitlement Orders) at the written direction of the Seller, subject to the provisions of Section 5.07 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the provisions of the Securities Account Control Agreement. All income or other gain from investments of moneys deposited in the Reserve Account shall be paid by the Indenture Trustee to the Seller on each Payment Date (by delivery to the Securities Intermediary of appropriate Entitlement Orders). Subject to the right of the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals therefrom, as directed by the Servicer, for the purposes and in the amounts set forth in Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Reserve Account and all funds held therein shall be the property of the Seller and not the property of the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee. The Seller will grant to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, a security interest in all funds (including Eligible Investments, but not the income from such investments) in the Reserve Account (including the Reserve Account Initial Deposit) and the proceeds thereof, and the Indenture Trustee shall have all of the rights of a secured party under the UCC with respect thereto; provided that all income from the investment of funds in the Reserve Account and the right to receive such income are retained by the Seller and are not transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed hereunder. The Seller will not direct the Indenture Trustee to make any investment of any funds or to sell any investment held in the Reserve Account unless the security interest granted and perfected in such account will continue to be perfected in such investment or the proceeds of such sale, in either case without any further action by any Person, and, in connection with any direction to the Indenture Trustee to make any such investment or sale, if requested by the Indenture Trustee, the Seller shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, to such effect.

(d) If (i) the Servicer or Seller shall have failed to give investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Collection Account, Payahead Account and Reserve Account, as the case may be, to the Indenture Trustee by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuer and Indenture Trustee) on any Business Day or (ii) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.02 or (iii) if such Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default, but amounts collected or receivable from the Trust Estate are being applied in accordance with Section 5.05 as if there had not been such a declaration, then the Indenture Trustee shall, to the fullest extent practicable, invest and reinvest funds in the Trust Accounts in one or more Eligible Investments specified in clause (h) of the definition of Eligible Investments provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. SECTION 8.05 RELEASE OF TRUST ESTATE. (a) Subject to the payment of its fees and expenses pursuant to Section 6.07, the Indenture Trustee may, and when required by the provisions of this Indenture shall, execute instruments to release property from the lien of this Indenture, or convey the Indenture Trustee's interest in such property, in a manner and under circumstances that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture. No party relying upon an instrument executed by the Indenture Trustee as provided in this Article VIII shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys. (b) The Indenture Trustee shall, at such time as there are no Notes outstanding, all sums due to the Swap Counterparty have been paid, and all sums due the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.07 have been paid, release any remaining portion of the Trust Estate that secured the Notes from the lien of this Indenture and release to or to the order of the Issuer or, in the case of the Reserve Account, to the Seller, entitled thereto any funds then on deposit in the Collection Account, Payahead Account and Reserve Account, as the case may be. The Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture pursuant to this Section 8.05(b) only upon receipt of an Issuer Request accompanied by an Officer's Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and (if required by the TIA) Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) meeting the applicable requirements of Section 11.01. SECTION 8.06 OPINION OF COUNSEL. The Indenture Trustee shall receive at least seven days notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action pursuant to Section 8.05(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Indenture Trustee shall also require, as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not materially and adversely impair the security for the 52 Notes or the rights of the Noteholders in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Trust Estate. Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action. ARTICLE IX SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES SECTION 9.01 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES WITHOUT CONSENT OF NOTEHOLDERS. Subject to Section 9.03, without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Order, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of the execution thereof), in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, for any of the following purposes: (a) to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property; (b) to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable provisions hereof, of another person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and in the Notes contained; (c) to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes or the Swap Counterparty, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer; (d) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to or with the Indenture Trustee; (e) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture to the extent such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes or the Certificate or the Swap Counterparty; (f) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes and the Swap Counterparty and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI; or (g) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of this Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to effect the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or under any similar 53 federal statute hereafter enacted and to add to this Indenture such other provisions as may be expressly required by the TIA. The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained.

The Indenture Trustee may in its discretion determine whether or not any Notes would be adversely affected by any supplemental indenture and any such determination shall be conclusive upon the Holders of all Notes, whether theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any such determination made in good faith. It shall not be necessary for any Action of Noteholders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Action shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Indenture Trustee to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

The Owner Trustee shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency of any prospective termination pursuant to this Section.

In the event such notice is given, the Seller, the Servicer, or any successor to the Servicer, or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall make deposits into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 5.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or, in the case of an optional purchase of Receivables pursuant to Section 10.02, shall deposit the amount specified in Section 10.02. Upon presentation and surrender of the Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be distributed to Noteholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. SECTION 10.02 OPTIONAL PURCHASE OF ALL RECEIVABLES. If the Servicer, or any successor to the Servicer, shall notify the Swap Counterparty, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of its intention to exercise the option granted to it in the Sale and Servicing Agreement to repurchase the outstanding Receivables primarily comprising the Owner Trust Estate, then the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee shall give written notice thereof to each Securityholder and the Rating Agencies as soon as practicable after their receipt of notice from the Servicer. Upon deposit by the Servicer or successor to the Servicer of the amount necessary to effect such purchase of the corpus of the Owner Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee shall make the final distributions to the Noteholders and Certificateholders as set forth in Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 10.01 hereof and shall promptly transfer all of its right, title and interest in and to any amounts or investments remaining on deposit in the Collection Account and all of its rights to make withdrawals from the Payahead Account and the Reserve Account (excluding any portion thereof necessary to make distributions to Noteholders described in Section 3.03) to the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholder and release from the lien of this Indenture all of the remaining Collateral.

Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include: (i) a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto; (ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; (iii) a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory, such signatory has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable such signatory to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and (iv) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with. (b) (i) Prior to the deposit of any Collateral or other property or securities with the Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis for the release of any property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in Section 11.01(a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such deposit) to the Issuer of the Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited. (ii) Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signatory thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the Issuer shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same matters, if the fair value to the Issuer of the securities to be so deposited and of all other such securities made the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then-current fiscal year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Issuer as set forth in the related Officer's Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes. 58 (iii) Whenever any property or securities are to be released from the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days of such release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof. SECTION 11.02 FORM OF DOCUMENTS DELIVERED TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE. In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents. Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which such officer's certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Servicer, the Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Servicer, the Seller, the Issuer or the Administrator, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous. Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuer's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI. ` SECTION 11.03 ACTS OF NOTEHOLDERS. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly 59 provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Action" of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section. (b) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient. (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register. (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Notes shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. SECTION 11.04 NOTICES, ETC., TO INDENTURE TRUSTEE, ISSUER AND RATING AGENCIES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Action of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Action of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with: (a) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or (b) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Toyota Auto Receivables 2001-B Owner Trust, 19001 South Western Avenue, Torrance, California 90509, Attention: Treasury Department, Vice President, Treasury, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer or the Administrator.

In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.

(v) NO BANKRUPT OBLIGORS. None of the Receivables shall be due, to the best knowledge of the Seller, from any Obligor who is presently the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding or is insolvent. (vi) NO GOVERNMENT OBLIGORS. None of the Receivables shall be due from the United States or any state, or from any agency, department or instrumentality of the United States or any state or local government. (vii) EMPLOYEE OBLIGORS. None of the Receivables shall be due from any employee of the Seller, the Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates. (viii) SECURITY INTEREST IN FINANCED VEHICLES. Immediately prior to the sale, assignment and transfer thereof pursuant hereto, each Receivable shall be secured by a validly perfected first priority security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the Seller as secured party or all necessary and appropriate action with respect to such Receivable shall have been taken to perfect a first priority security interest in such Financed Vehicle in favor of the Seller as secured party. (ix) RECEIVABLES IN FORCE. No Receivable shall have been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor shall any Financed Vehicle have been released in whole or in part from the lien granted by the related Receivable. (x) NO WAIVERS. No provision of a Receivable shall have been waived in such a manner that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto. (xi) NO AMENDMENTS. No Receivable shall have been amended or modified in such a manner that the total number of Scheduled Payments has been increased or that the related Amount Financed has been increased or that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto.

No facts shall be known to the Seller which would give rise to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, nor shall the same have been asserted or threatened, with respect to any Receivable. 9 (xiii) NO LIENS. To the knowledge of the Seller, no liens or claims shall have been filed as of the date of this Agreement, including liens for work, labor or materials relating to a Financed Vehicle, that shall be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in such Financed Vehicle granted by the related Receivable, which Liens shall not have been released or satisfied as of the Closing Date.

(xvi) GOOD TITLE. It is the intention of the Seller that the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, taken as a whole, constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Seller to the Purchaser and that the beneficial interest in and title to the Receivables not be part of the debtor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law. No Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Seller to any Person other than the Purchaser, and no provision of a Receivable shall have been waived, as provided in clause (x) above; immediately prior to the transfer and assignment herein contemplated, the Seller had good and marketable title to each Receivable free and clear of all Liens and rights of others; immediately upon the transfer and assignment thereof, the Purchaser shall have good and marketable title to each Receivable, free and clear of all Liens and rights of others; and the transfer and assignment herein contemplated has been perfected under the UCC. (xvii) LAWFUL ASSIGNMENT.

(xviii) ALL FILINGS MADE.

(b) NOTICE OF BREACH. The representations and warranties set forth in this Section shall speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Purchaser and any subsequent assignment or transfer pursuant to Article Two of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Purchaser, the Seller or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties promptly, in writing, upon discovery of any breach of the Seller's representations and warranties pursuant to this Section which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) in any Receivable. (c) REPURCHASE OF RECEIVABLES. In the event of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.03(a) which materially and adversely affects the interest of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) in any Receivable, unless such breach shall have been cured in all material respects, the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable by the last day of the second Collection Period following the Collection Period in which the discovery of the breach is made or notice is received, as the case may be (or, at the option of the Seller, the last day in the first Collection Period following the Collection Period in which such discovery is made or such notice received). This repurchase obligation shall obtain for all representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Section 2.03(a) of this Agreement whether or not the Seller has knowledge of the breach at the time of the breach or at the time the representations and warranties were made. In consideration of the purchase of any such Receivable, the Seller shall remit an amount equal to the Warranty Purchase Payment in respect of such Receivable to the Purchaser, and the Seller shall be entitled to receive the Released Warranty Amount from (or on behalf of) the Purchaser. The sole remedy of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) with respect to a breach of the Seller's representations and warranties pursuant to this Agreement shall be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivable pursuant to this Section. Upon any such repurchase, the Purchaser shall, without further action, be deemed to transfer, assign, 11 set-over and otherwise convey to the Seller, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Purchaser in, to and under such repurchased Receivable, all monies due or to become due with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof. The Purchaser or the Owner Trustee, as applicable, shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Seller to effect the conveyance of such Receivable pursuant to this Section.

(b) DELIVERY OF PAYMENTS. The Seller agrees to deliver in kind upon receipt to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement (if other than the Seller) all payments received by the Seller in respect of the Receivables as soon as practicable after receipt thereof by the Seller from and after the appointment of the Servicer as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Toyota Auto Receivables 2001-B Owner Trust.

Each such account shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Deposit Account, and, subject to provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture, bearing a designation clearly indicating that, subject to Section 5.01(b), the funds deposited therein are held by the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholder, in each case in accordance with Section 5.01 in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Subject to Section 5.01(b), the Owner Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Collection Account and the Payahead Account and in all proceeds thereof (other than any net investment earnings on Eligible Investments held therein). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Collection Account and the Payahead Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholder. If, at any time, the Collection Account or the Payahead Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Owner Trustee (or the Administrator on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Collection Account is not then held by the Owner Trustee or an affiliate thereof) shall within 10 Business Days establish a new equivalent Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new account. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, concurrently with, the execution and delivery of any Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are issued, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or shall cause to be established and maintained, at the direction of the Depositor, accounts of the Trust ("Trust Accounts") in the name of and under the control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders, in each case in accordance with Section 5.01 of the Sale and 11 Servicing Agreement. The Owner Trustee shall thereupon promptly transfer any cash and/or investments then on deposit in the equivalent Trust Accounts maintained by it pursuant to Section 5.01(a) to the newly established Trust Accounts on the terms and conditions set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee will be obligated to transfer back to the equivalent Trust Accounts established pursuant to Section 5.01(a) all funds or investments held or to be held in the Trust Accounts established pursuant to this Section 5.01(b) on the Payment Date on which the Notes of all Classes have been paid in full or the Indenture is otherwise terminated (excluding any amounts to be retained for distribution in respect of Notes that are not promptly delivered for payment on such Payment Date), and to take all necessary or appropriate actions to transfer all right, title and interest of the Indenture Trustee in such funds or investments and all proceeds thereof, to the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholder. SECTION 5.02 APPLICATION OF AMOUNTS IN TRUST ACCOUNTS. (a) For so long as any Notes are outstanding, on each Payment Date, the Owner Trustee will take reasonable steps to determine that the Servicer has properly delivered the Servicer's Certificate identifying how amounts on deposit in the Trust Accounts are to be allocated and distributed and will instruct the Indenture Trustee, or cause the Indenture Trustee to be instructed, to distribute to the Certificateholder the amounts distributable thereto pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Section 3.01 of the Indenture. From and after the date on which the Notes of all Classes have been paid in full, on each Payment Date the Owner Trustee shall distribute to the Certificateholder amounts on deposit in the Collection Account that are distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer pursuant to Sections 5.06(c) and (d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon the release from the Lien of the Indenture of amounts on deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or any other portion of the Owner Trust Estate, the Owner Trustee will cause such property to be properly deposited into Trust Accounts under the control of the Owner Trustee or distributed to the Certificateholder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, as the case may be. (b) On each Payment Date, the Owner Trustee shall send to the Certificateholder the statement provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.08 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Payment Date. (c) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust's distributions (or allocations of income) to the Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section. The Owner Trustee and Paying Agent are hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such tax or the withholding requirement with respect to any such tax in appropriate proceedings if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to the Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to the Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to any distribution (such as any distribution to a Non-U.S. Person), the Owner Trustee may, in its sole discretion, withhold such amounts in accordance with this paragraph (c). In the event that the 12 Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Certificateholder in making such claim so long as the Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection therewith.

Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the powers and duties conferred thereto under this Agreement, shall be vested with the estates or specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator. SECTION 10.06 POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR CO-TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE TRUSTEE. Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

EX-4.6 7 a2049889zex-4_6.txt EXHIBIT 4.6 EXHIBIT 4.6 (MULTICURRENCY - CROSS BORDER) ISDA(R) International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. MASTER AGREEMENT dated as of........................... ..................................... and ...................................... have entered and/or anticipate entering into one or more transactions (each a "Transaction") that are or will be governed by this Master Agreement, which includes the schedule (the "Schedule"), and the documents and other confirming evidence (each a "Confirmation") exchanged between the parties confirming those Transactions. Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:- 1. INTERPRETATION (a) DEFINITIONS. The terms defined in Section 14 and in the Schedule will have the meanings therein specified for the purpose of this Master Agreement. (b) INCONSISTENCY. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Schedule and the other provisions of this Master Agreement, the Schedule will prevail. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of any Confirmation and this Master Agreement (including the Schedule), such Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the relevant Transaction. (c) SINGLE AGREEMENT. All Transactions are entered into in reliance on the fact that this Master Agreement and all Confirmations form a single agreement between the parties (collectively referred to as this "Agreement"), and the parties would not otherwise enter into any Transactions. 2. OBLIGATIONS. (a) GENERAL CONDITIONS. (i) Each party will make each payment or delivery specified in each Confirmation to be made by it, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. (ii) Payments under this Agreement will be made on the due date for value on that date in the place of the account specified in the relevant Confirmation or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, in freely transferable funds and in the manner customary for payments in the required currency. Where settlement is by delivery (that is, other than by payment), such delivery will be made for receipt on the due date in the manner customary for the relevant obligation unless otherwise specified in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement. (iii) Each obligation of each party under Section 2(a)(i) is subject to (1) the condition precedent that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to the other party has occurred and is continuing, (2) the condition precedent that no Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction has occurred or been effectively designated and (3) each other applicable condition precedent specified in this Agreement. (b) CHANGE OF ACCOUNT. Either party may change its account for receiving a payment or delivery by giving notice to the other party at least five Local Business Days prior to the scheduled date for the payment or delivery to which such change applies unless such other party gives timely notice of a reasonable objection to such change. (c) NETTING. If on any date amounts would otherwise be payable:- (i) in the same currency; and (ii) in respect of the same Transaction, by each party to the other, then, on such date, each party's obligation to make payment of any such amount will be automatically satisfied and discharged and, if the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by one party exceeds the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by the other party, replaced by an obligation upon the party by whom the larger aggregate amount would have been payable to pay to the other party the excess of the larger aggregate amount over the smaller aggregate amount. The parties may elect in respect of two or more Transactions that a net amount will be determined in respect of all amounts payable on the same date in the same currency in respect of such Transactions, regardless of whether such amounts are payable in respect of the same Transaction. The election may be made in the Schedule or a Confirmation by specifying that subparagraph (ii) above will not apply to the Transactions identified as being subject to the election, together with the starting date (in which case subparagraph (ii) above will not, or will cease to, apply to such Transactions from such date). This election may be made separately for different groups of Transactions and will apply separately to each pairing of Offices through which the parties make and receive payments or deliveries. (d) DEDUCTION OR WITHHOLDING FOR TAX. (i) GROSS-UP. All payments under this Agreement will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If a party is so required to deduct or withhold, then that party ("X") will:- (1) promptly notify the other party ("Y") of such requirement; (2) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid by X to Y under this Section 2(d)) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against Y; (3) promptly forward to Y an official receipt (or a certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to Y, evidencing such payment to such authorities; and (4) if such Tax is an Indemnifiable Tax, pay to Y, in addition to the payment to which Y is otherwise entitled under this Agreement, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Y (free and clear of Indemnifiable Taxes, whether assessed against X or Y) will equal the full amount Y would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required. However, X will not be required to pay any additional amount to Y to the extent that it would not be required to be paid but for:- (A) the failure by Y to comply with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d); or (B) the failure of a representation made by Y pursuant to Section 3(f) to be accurate and true unless such failure would not have occurred but for (I) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, on or after the date on which a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (II) a Change in Tax Law. 2 (ii) LIABILITY. If:-- (1) X is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, to make any deduction or withholding in respect of which X would not be required to pay an additional amount to Y under Section 2(d)(i)(4); (2) X does not so deduct or withhold; and (3) a liability resulting from such Tax is assessed directly against X. then, except to the extent Y has satisfied or then satisfies the liability resulting from such Tax, Y will promptly pay to X the amount of such liability (including any related liability for interest, but including any related liability for penalties only if Y has failed to comply with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)). (c) DEFAULT INTEREST; OTHER AMOUNTS. Prior to the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction, a party that defaults in the performance of any payment obligation will, to the extent permitted by law and subject to Section 6(c), be required to pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the overdue amount to the other party on demand in the same currency as such overdue amount, for the period from (and including) the original due date for payment to (but excluding) the date of actual payment, at the Default Rate. Such interest will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding and the actual number of days elapsed. If, prior to the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction, a party defaults in the performance of any obligation required to be settled by delivery, it will compensate the other party on demand if and to the extent provided for in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement. 3. REPRESENTATIONS Each party represents to the other party (which representations will be deemed to be repeated by each party on each date on which a Transaction is entered into and, in the case of the representations in Section 3(f), at all times until the termination of this Agreement) that:-- (a) BASIC REPRESENTATIONS.

Subject to Section 11, it will pay any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon it or in respect of its execution or performance of this Agreement by a jurisdiction in which it is incorporated. 4 organised, managed and controlled, or considered to have its seat, or in which a branch or office through which it is acting for the purpose of this Agreement is located ("Stamp Tax Jurisdiction") and will indemnify the other party against any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon the other party or in respect of the other party's execution or performance of this Agreement by any such Stamp Tax Jurisdiction which is not also a Stamp Tax Jurisdiction with respect to the other party. 5. EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND TERMINATION EVENTS (a) EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any Specified Entity of such party of any of the following events constitutes an event of default (an "Event of Default") with respect to such party:-- (i) FAILURE TO PAY OR DELIVER. Failure by the party to make, when due, any payment under this Agreement or delivery under Section 2(a)(i) or 2(e) required to be made by it if such failure is not remedied on or before the third Local Business Day after notice of such failure is given to the party; (ii) BREACH OF AGREEMENT. Failure by the party to comply with or perform any agreement or obligation (other than an obligation to make any payment under this Agreement or delivery under Section 2(a)(i) or 2(e) or to give notice of a Termination Event or any agreement or obligation under Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)) to be complied with or performed by the party in accordance with this Agreement if such failure is not remedied on or before the thirtieth day after notice of such failure is given to the party; (iii) CREDIT SUPPORT DEFAULT. (1) Failure by the party or any Credit Support Provider of such party to comply with or perform any agreement or obligation to be complied with or performed by it in accordance with any Credit Support Document if such failure is continuing after any applicable grace period has elapsed; (2) the expiration or termination of such Credit Support Document or the failing or ceasing of such Credit Support Document to be in full force and effect for the purpose of this Agreement (in either case other than in accordance with its terms) prior to the satisfaction of all obligations of such party under each Transaction to which such Credit Support Document relates without the written consent of the other party; or (3) the party or such Credit Support Provider disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the validity of such Credit Support Document; (iv) MISREPRESENTATION. A representation (other than a representation under Section 3(e) or (f)) made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated by the party or any Credit Support Provider of such party in this Agreement or any Credit Support Document proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated; (v) DEFAULT UNDER SPECIFIED TRANSACTION. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party (1) defaults under a Specified Transaction and, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, there occurs a liquidation of, an acceleration of obligations under, or an early termination of, that Specified Transaction, (2) defaults, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, in making any payment or delivery due on the last payment, delivery or exchange date of, or any payment on early termination, of a Specified Transaction (or such default continues for at least three Local Business Days if there is no applicable notice requirement or grace period) or (3) disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, a Specified Transaction for such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on its behalf); (vi) CROSS DEFAULT. If "Cross Default" is specified in the Schedule as applying to the party, the occurrence or existence of (1) a default, event of default or other similar condition or event (however 5 described) in respect of such party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party under one or more agreements or instruments relating to Specified Indebtedness of any of them (individually or collectively) in an aggregate amount of not less than the applicable Threshold Amount (as specified in the Schedule) which has resulted in such Specified Indebtedness becoming, or becoming capable at such time of being declared, due and payable under such agreements or instruments, before it would otherwise have been due and payable or (2) a default by such party, such Credit Support Provider or such Specified Entity (individually or collectively) in making one or more payments on the due date thereof in an aggregate amount of not less than the applicable Threshold Amount under such agreements or instruments (after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period); (vii) BANKRUPTCY. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party:-- (1) is dissolved (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger); (2) becomes insolvent or is unable to pay its debts or fails or admits in writing its inability generally to pay its debts as they become due; (3) makes a general assignment, arrangement or composition with or for the benefit of its creditors; (4) institutes or has instituted against it a proceeding seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law affecting creditors' rights, or a petition is presented for its winding-up or liquidation, and, in the case of any such proceeding or petition instituted or presented against it, such proceeding or petition (A) results in a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or the envy of an order for relief or the making of an order for its winding-up or liquidation or (B) is not dismissed, discharged, stayed or restrained in each case within 30 days of the institution or presentation thereof; (5) has a resolution passed for its winding-up, official management or liquidation (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger); (6) seeks or becomes subject to the appointment of an administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or substantially all its assets; (7) has a secured party take possession of all or substantially all its assets or has a distress, execution, attachment, sequestration or other legal process levied, enforced or sued on or against all or substantially all its assets and such secured party maintains possession, or any such process is not dismissed, discharged, stayed or restrained, in each case within 30 days thereafter; (8) causes or is subject to any event with respect to it which, under the applicable laws of any jurisdiction, has an analogous effect to any of the events specified in clauses (1) to (7) (inclusive); or (9) takes any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence, in any of the foregoing acts; or (viii) MERGER WITHOUT ASSUMPTION. The party or any Credit Support Provider of such party consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or substantially all its assets to, another entity, and, at the time of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer:-- (1) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity fails to assume all the obligations of such party or such Credit Support Provider under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it or its predecessor was a party by operation of law or pursuant to an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the other party to this Agreement; or (2) the benefits of any Credit Support Document fail to extend (without the consent of the other party) to the performance by such resulting, surviving or transferee entity of its obligations under this Agreement. (b) TERMINATION EVENTS. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any Specified Entity of such party of any event specified below constitutes an Illegality if the event is specified in (i) below, a Tax Event if the event is specified in (ii) below or a Tax Event Upon Merger if the event is specified in (iii) below, and, if specified to be applicable, a Credit Event 6 Upon Merger if the event is specified pursuant to (iv) below or an Additional Termination Event if the event is specified pursuant to (v) below:-- (i) ILLEGALITY. Due to the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law after the date on which a Transaction is entered into, or due to the promulgation of, or any change in, the interpretation by any court, tribunal or regulatory authority with competent jurisdiction of any applicable law after such date, it becomes unlawful (other than as a result of a breach by the party of Section 4(b)) for such party (which will be the Affected Party):-- (1) to perform any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery or to receive a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction or to comply with any other material provision of this Agreement relating to such Transaction; or (2) to perform, or for any Credit Support Provider of such party to perform, any contingent or other obligation which the party (or such Credit Support Provider) has under any Credit Support Document relating to such Transaction; (ii) TAX EVENT. Due to (x) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, on or after the date on which a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (y) a Change in Tax Law, the party (which will be the Affected Party) will, or there is a substantial likelihood that it will, on the next succeeding Scheduled Payment Date (1) be required to pay to the other party an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e)) or (2) receive a payment from which an amount is required to be deducted or withheld for or on account of a Tax (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e)) and no additional amount is required to be paid in respect of such Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (other than by reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)); (iii) TAX EVENT UPON MERGER. The party (the "Burdened Party") on the next succeeding Scheduled Payment Date will either (1) be required to pay an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e)) or (2) receive a payment from which an amount has been deducted or withheld for or on account of any Indemnifiable Tax in respect of which the other party is not required to pay an additional amount (other than by reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)), in either case as a result of a party consolidating or amalgamating with, or merging with or into, or transferring all or substantially all its assets to, another entity (which will be the Affected Party) where such action does not constitute an event described in Section 5(a)(viii); (iv) CREDIT EVENT UPON MERGER. If "Credit Event Upon Merger" is specified in the Schedule as applying to the party, such party ("X"), any Credit Support Provider of X or any applicable Specified Entity of X consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or substantially all its assets to, another entity and such action does not constitute an event described in Section 5(a)(viii) but the creditworthiness of the resulting, surviving or transferee entity is materially weaker than that of X, such Credit Support Provider or such Specified Entity, as the case may be, immediately prior to such action (and, in such event, X or its successor or transferee, as appropriate, will be the Affected Party); or (v) ADDITIONAL TERMINATION EVENT. If any "Additional Termination Event" is specified in the Schedule or any Confirmation as applying, the occurrence of such event (and, in such event, the Affected Party or Affected Parties shall be as specified for such Additional Termination Event in the Schedule or such Confirmation). (c) EVENT OF DEFAULT AND ILLEGALITY. If an event or circumstance which would otherwise constitute or give rise to an Event of Default also constitutes an illegality, it will be treated as an Illegality and will not constitute an Event of Default. 7 6. EARLY TERMINATION (a) RIGHT TO TERMINATE FOLLOWING EVENT OF DEFAULT. If at any time an Event of Default with respect to a party (the "Defaulting Party") has occurred and is then continuing, the other party (the "Non-defaulting Party") may, by not more than 20 days notice to the Defaulting Party specifying the relevant Event of Default, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding Transactions. If, however, "Automatic Early Termination" is specified in the Schedule as applying to a party, then an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding Transactions will occur immediately upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(1), (3), (5), (6) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8), and as of the time immediately preceding the institution of the relevant proceeding or the presentation of the relevant petition upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(4) or, to the extent analogous thereto. (8) (b) RIGHT TO TERMINATE FOLLOWING TERMINATION EVENT. (i) NOTICE. If a Termination Event occurs, an Affected Party will, promptly upon becoming aware of it, notify the other party, specifying the nature of that Termination Event and each Affected Transaction and will also give such other information about that Termination Event as the other party may reasonably require. (ii) TRANSFER TO AVOID TERMINATION EVENT. If either an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or a Tax Event occurs and there is only one Affected Party; or if a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is the Affected Party, the Affected Party will, as a condition to its right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv), use all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, excluding immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer within 20 days after it gives notice under Section 6(b)(i) all its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Affected Transactions to another of its Offices or Affiliates so that such Termination Event ceases to exist. If the Affected Party is not able to make such a transfer it will give notice to the other party to that effect within such 20 day period, whereupon the other party may effect such a transfer within 30 days after the notice is given under Section 6(b)(i). Any such transfer by a party under this Section 6(b)(ii) will be subject to and conditional upon the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld if such other party's policies in effect at such time would permit it to enter into transactions with the transferee on the terms proposed. (iii) TWO AFFECTED PARTIES. If an illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or a Tax Event occurs and there are two Affected Parties, each party will use all reasonable efforts to reach agreement within 30 days after notice thereof is given under Section 6(b)(i) on action to avoid that Termination Event. (iv) RIGHT TO TERMINATE. If:-- (1) a transfer under Section 6(b)(ii) or an agreement under Section 6(b)(iii), as the case may be, has not been effected with respect to all Affected Transactions within 30 days after an Affected Party gives notice under Section 6(b)(i); or (2) an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(2), a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event occurs, or a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is not the Affected Party. either party in the case of an Illegality, the Burdened Party in the case of a Tax Event Upon Merger, any Affected Party in the case of a Tax Event or an Additional Termination Event if there is more than one Affected Party, or the party which is not the Affected Party in the case of a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event if there is only one Affected Party may, by not more than 20 days notice to the other party and provided that the relevant Termination Event is then 8 continuing, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all Affected Transactions. (c) EFFECT OF DESIGNATION. (i) If notice designating an Early Termination Date is given under Section 6(a) or (b), the Early Termination Date will occur on the date so designated, whether or not the relevant Event of Default or Termination Event is then continuing. (ii) Upon the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date, no further payments or deliveries under Section 2(a)(i) or 2(c) in respect of the Terminated Transactions will be required to be made, but without prejudice to the other provisions of this Agreement. The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date shall be determined pursuant to Section 6(e). (d) CALCULATIONS. (i) STATEMENT. On or as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an Early Termination Date, each party will make the calculations on its part, if any, contemplated by Section 6(e) and will provide to the other party a statement (1) showing, in reasonable detail, such calculations (including all relevant quotations and specifying any amount payable under Section 6(e)) and (2) giving details of the relevant account to which any amount payable to it is to be paid. In the absence of written confirmation from the source of a quotation obtained in determining a Market Quotation, the records of the party obtaining such quotation will be conclusive evidence of the existence and accuracy of such quotation. (ii) PAYMENT DATE. An amount calculated as being due in respect of any Early Termination Date under Section 6(c) will be payable on the day that notice of the amount payable is effective (in the case of an Early Termination Date which is designated or occurs as a result of an Event of Default) and on the day which is two Local Business Days after the day on which notice of the amount payable is effective (in the case of an Early Termination Date which is designated as a result of a Termination Event). Such amount will be paid together with (to the extent permitted under applicable law) interest thereon (before as well as after judgment) in the Termination Currency, from (and including) the relevant Early Termination Date to (but excluding) the date such amount is paid, at the Applicable Rate. Such interest will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding and the actual number of days elapsed. (e) PAYMENTS ON EARLY TERMINATION. If an Early Termination Date occurs, the following provisions shall apply based on the parties' election in the Schedule of a payment measure, either "Market Quotation" or "Loss", and a payment method, either the "First Method" or the "Second Method". If the parties fail to designate a payment measure or payment method in the Schedule, it will be deemed that "Market Quotation" or the "Second Method", as the case may be, shall apply. The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date and determined pursuant to this Section will be subject to any Set-off. (i) EVENTS OF DEFAULT. If the Early Termination Date results from an Event of Default:-- (1) FIRST METHOD AND MARKET QUOTATION. If the First Method and Market Quotation apply, the Defaulting Party will pay to the Non- defaulting Party the excess, if a positive number, of (A) the sum of the Settlement Amount (determined by the Non-defaulting Party) in respect of the Terminated Transactions and the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Non-defaulting Party over (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Defaulting Party. (2) FIRST METHOD AND LOSS. If the First Method and Loss apply, the Defaulting Party will pay to the Non-defaulting Party, if a positive number, the Non-defaulting Party's Loss in respect of this Agreement. (3) SECOND METHOD AND MARKET QUOTATION. If the Second Method and Market Quotation apply, an amount will be payable equal to (A) the sum of the Settlement Amount (determined by the 9 Non-defaulting Party) in respect of the Terminated Transactions and the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Non-defaulting Party less (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Defaulting Party. If that amount is a positive number, the Defaulting Party will pay it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative number, the Non-defaulting Party will pay the absolute value of that amount to the Defaulting Party. (d) SECOND METHOD AND LOSS. If the Second Method and Loss apply, an amount will be payable equal to the Non-defaulting Party's Loss in respect of this Agreement. If that amount is a positive number, the Defaulting Party will pay it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative number, the Non-defaulting Party will pay the absolute value of that amount to the Defaulting Party. (ii) TERMINATION EVENTS. If the Early Termination Date results from a Termination Event:-- (1) ONE AFFECTED PARTY. If there is one Affected Party, the amount payable will be determined in accordance with Section 6(e)(i)(3), if Market Quotation applies, or Section 6(e)(i)(4), if Loss applies, except that, in either case, references to the Defaulting Party and to the Non-defaulting Party will be deemed to be references to the Affected Party and the party which is not the Affected Party, respectively, and if Loss applies and fewer than all the Transactions are being terminated, Loss shall be calculated in respect of all Terminated Transactions. (2) TWO AFFECTED PARTIES. If there are two Affected Parties:-- (A) if Market Quotation applies, each party will determine a Settlement Amount in respect of the Terminated Transactions, and an amount will be payable equal to (I) the sum of (a) one- half of the difference between the Settlement Amount of the party with the higher Settlement Amount ("X") and the Settlement Amount of the party with the lower Settlement Amount ("Y") and (b) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to X less (II) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to Y; and (B) if Loss applies, each party will determine its Loss in respect of this Agreement (or, if fewer than all the Transactions are being terminated, in respect of all Terminated Transactions) and an amount will be payable equal to one-half of the difference between the Loss of the party with the higher Loss ("X") and the Loss of the party with the lower Loss ("Y"). If the amount payable is a positive number, Y will pay it to X: if it is a negative number, X will pay the absolute value of that amount to Y. (iii) ADJUSTMENT FOR BANKRUPTCY. In circumstances where an Early Termination Date occurs because "Automatic Early Termination" applies in respect of a party, the amount determined under this Section 6(e) will be subject to such adjustments as are appropriate and permitted by law to reflect any payments or deliveries made by one party to the other under this Agreement (and retained by such other party) during the period from the relevant Early Termination Date to the date for payment determined under Section 6(d)(ii). (iv) PRE-ESTIMATE. The parties agree that if Market Quotation applies an amount recoverable under this Section 6(e) is a reasonable pre-estimate of loss and not a penalty. Such amount is payable for the loss of bargain and the loss of protection against future risks and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement neither party will be entitled to recover any additional damages as a consequence of such losses. 10 7. TRANSFER Subject to Section 6(b)(ii), neither this Agreement nor any interest or obligation in or under this Agreement may be transferred (whether by way of security or otherwise) by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, except that:-- (a) a party may make such a transfer of this Agreement pursuant to a consolidation or amalgamation with, or merger with or into, or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to, another entity (but without prejudice to any other right or remedy under this Agreement); and (b) a party may make such a transfer of all or any part of its interest in any amount payable to it from a Defaulting Party under Section 6(e). Any purported transfer that is not in compliance with this Section will be void. 8. CONTRACTUAL CURRENCY (a) PAYMENT IN THE CONTRACTUAL CURRENCY. Each payment under this Agreement will be made in the relevant currency specified in this Agreement for that payment (the "Contractual Currency"). To the extent permitted by applicable law, any obligation to make payments under this Agreement in the Contractual Currency will not be discharged or satisfied by any tender in any currency other than the Contractual Currency, except to the extent such tender results in actual receipt by the party to which payment is owed, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency so tendered into the Contractual Currency, of the full amount in the Contractual Currency of all amounts payable in respect of this Agreement. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received falls short of the amount in the Contractual Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party required to make the payment will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately pay such additional amount in the Contractual Currency as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received exceeds the amount in the Contractual Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party receiving the payment will refund promptly the amount of such excess. (b) JUDGMENTS. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if any judgment or order expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency is rendered (i) for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Agreement, (ii) for the payment of any amount relating to any early termination in respect of this Agreement or (iii) in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in (i) or (ii) above, the party seeking recovery, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which such party is entitled pursuant to the judgment or order, will be entitled to receive immediately from the other party the amount of any shortfall of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency and will refund promptly to the other party any excess of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency if such shortfall or such excess arises or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purposes of such judgment or order and the rate of exchange at which such party is able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency received into the Contractual Currency, to purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the currency of the judgment or order actually received by such party. The term "rate of exchange" includes, without limitation, any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of or conversion into the Contractual Currency. (c) SEPARATE INDEMNITIES. To the extent permitted by applicable law, these indemnities constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Agreement, will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the party to which any payment is owed and will not be affected by judgment being obtained or claim or proof being made for any other sums payable in respect of this Agreement. (d) EVIDENCE OF LOSS. For the purpose of this Section 8, it will be sufficient for a party to demonstrate that it would have suffered a loss had an actual exchange or purchase been made. 11 9. MISCELLANEOUS (a) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all oral communication and prior writings with respect thereto. (b) AMENDMENTS. No amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing (including a writing evidenced by a facsimile transmission) and executed by each of the parties or confirmed by an exchange of telexes or electronic messages on an electronic messaging system. (c) SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS. Without prejudice to Sections 2(a)(iii) and 6(c)(ii), the obligations of the parties under this Agreement will survive the termination of any Transaction. (d) REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Except as provided in this Agreement, the rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided by law. (e) COUNTERPARTS AND CONFIRMATIONS. (i) This Agreement (and each amendment, modification and waiver in respect of it) may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission), each of which will be deemed an original (ii) The parties intend that they are legally bound by the terms of each Transaction from the moment they agree to those terms (whether orally or otherwise). A Confirmation shall be entered into as soon as practicable and may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission) or be created by an exchange of telexes or by an exchange of electronic messages on an electronic messaging system, which in each case will be sufficient for all purposes to evidence a binding supplement to this Agreement. The parties will specify therein or through another effective means that any such counterpart, telex or electronic message constitutes a Confirmation. (f) NO WAIVER OF RIGHTS. A failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege in respect of this Agreement will not be presumed to operate as a waiver, and a single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise, of that right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. (g) HEADINGS. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction of or to be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement. 10. OFFICES: MULTIBRANCH PARTIES (a) If Section 10(a) is specified in the Schedule as applying, each party that enters into a Transaction through an Office other than its head or home office represents to the other party that, notwithstanding the place of booking office or jurisdiction of incorporation or organisation of such party, the obligations of such party are the same as if it had entered into the Transaction through its head or home office. This representation will be deemed to be repeated by such party on each date on which a Transaction is entered into. (b) Neither party may change the Office through which it makes and receives payments or deliveries for the purpose of a Transaction without the prior written consent of the other party. (c) If a party is specified as a Multibranch Party in the Schedule, such Multibranch Party may make and receive payments or deliveries under any Transaction through any Office listed in the Schedule, and the Office through which it makes and receives payments or deliveries with respect to a Transaction will be specified in the relevant Confirmation. 11. EXPENSES A Defaulting Party will, on demand, indemnify and hold harmless the other party for and against all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees and Stamp Tax, incurred by such other party by reason of the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document 12 to which the Defaulting Party is a party or by reason of the early termination of any Transaction, including, but not limited to, costs of collection. 12. NOTICES (a) EFFECTIVENESS.

(b) CHANGE OF ADDRESSES. Either party may by notice to the other change the address, telex or facsimile number or electronic messaging system details at which notices or other communications are to be given to it. 13. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION (a) GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the law specified in the Schedule. (b) JURISDICTION. With respect to any suit, action or proceedings relating to this Agreement ("Proceedings"), each party irrevocably:-- (i) submits to the jurisdiction of the English courts, if this Agreement is expressed to be governed by English law, or to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the United States District Court located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, if this Agreement is expressed to be governed by the laws of the State of New York; and (ii) waives any objection which it may have at any time to the laying of venue of any Proceedings brought in any such court, waives any claim that such Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and further waives the right to object, with respect to such Proceedings, that such court does not have any jurisdiction over such party. Nothing in this Agreement precludes either party from bringing Proceedings in any other jurisdiction (outside, if this Agreement is expressed to be governed by English law, the Contracting States, as defined in Section 1(3) of the Civil Jurisdiction and Judgments Act 1982 or any modification, extension or re-enactment thereof for the time being in force) nor will the bringing of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction. (c) SERVICE OF PROCESS. Each party irrevocably appoints the Process Agent (if any) specified opposite its name in the Schedule to receive, for it and on its behalf, service of process in any Proceedings. If for any 13 reason any party's Process Agent is unable to act as such, such party will promptly notify the other party and within 30 days appoint a substitute process agent acceptable to the other party. The parties irrevocably consent to service of process given in the manner provided for notices in Section 12. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of either party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. (d) WAIVER OF IMMUNITIES.

"LOSS" means, with respect to this Agreement or one or more Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, and a party, the Termination Currency Equivalent of an amount that party reasonably determines in good faith to be its total losses and costs (or gain, in which case expressed as a negative number) in connection with this Agreement or that Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, including any loss of bargain, cost of funding or, at the election of such party but without duplication, loss or cost incurred as a result of its terminating, liquidating, obtaining or reestablishing any hedge or related trading position (or any gain resulting from any of them). Loss includes losses and costs (or gains) in respect of any payment or delivery required to have been made (assuming satisfaction of each applicable condition precedent) on or before the relevant Early Termination Date and not made, except, so as to avoid duplication, if Section 6(e)(i)(1) or (3) or 6(e)(ii)(2)(A) applies. Loss does not include a party's legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses referred to under Section 11. A party will determine its Loss as of the relevant Early Termination Date or, if that is not reasonably practicable, as of the earliest date thereafter as is reasonably practicable. A party may (but need not) determine its Loss by reference to quotations of relevant rates or prices from one or more leading dealers in the relevant markets. "MARKET QUOTATION" means, with respect to one or more Terminated Transactions and a party making the determination, an amount determined on the basis of quotations from Reference Market-makers. Each quotation will be for an amount, if any, that would be paid to such party (expressed as a negative number) or by such party (expressed as a positive number) in consideration of an agreement between such party (taking into account any existing Credit Support Document with respect to the obligations of such party) and the quoting Reference Market-maker to enter into a transaction (the "Replacement Transaction") that would have the effect of preserving for such party the economic equivalent of any payment or delivery (whether the underlying obligation was absolute or contingent and assuming the satisfaction of each applicable condition precedent) by the parties under Section (2)(a)(i) in respect of such Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions that would, but for the occurrence of the relevant Early Termination Date, have 15 been required after that date. For this purpose, Unpaid Amounts in respect of the Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions are to be excluded but, without limitation, any payment or delivery that would, but for the relevant Early Termination Date, have been required (assuming satisfaction of each applicable condition precedent) after that Early Termination Date is to be included. The Replacement Transaction would be subject to such documentation as such party and the Reference Market-maker may, in good faith, agree. The party making the determination (or its agent) will request each Reference Market-maker to provide its quotation to the extent reasonably practicable as of the same day and time (without regard to different time zones) on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant Early Termination Date. The day and time as of which those quotations are to be obtained will be selected in good faith by the party obliged to make a determination under Section 6(c), and, if each party is so obliged, after consultation with the other. If more than three quotations are provided, the Market Quotation will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations without regard to the quotations having the highest and lowest values. If exactly three such quotations are provided, the Market Quotation will be the quotation remaining after disregarding the highest and lowest quotations. For this purpose, if more than one quotation has the same highest value or lowest value, then one of such quotations shall be disregarded. If fewer than three quotations are provided, it will be deemed that the Market Quotation in respect of such Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions cannot be determined.

"POTENTIAL EVENT OF DEFAULT" means any event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default. "REFERENCE MARKET-MAKERS" means four leading dealers in the relevant market selected by the party determining a Market Quotation in good faith (a) from among dealers of the highest credit standing which satisfy all the criteria that such party applies generally at the time in deciding whether to offer or to make an extension of credit and (b) to the extent practicable, from among such dealers having an office in the same city. "RELEVANT JURISDICTION" means, with respect to a party, the jurisdictions (a) in which the party is incorporated, organised, managed and controlled or considered to have its seat, (b) where an Office through which the party is acting for purposes of this Agreement is located, (c) in which the party executes this Agreement and (d) in relation to any payment, from or through which such payment is made. "SCHEDULED PAYMENT DATE" means a date on which a payment or delivery is to be made under Section 2(a)(i) with respect to a Transaction. "SET-OFF" means set-off, offset, combination of accounts, right of retention or withholding or similar right or requirement to which the payer of an amount under Section 6 is entitled or subject (whether arising under this Agreement, another contract, applicable law or otherwise) that is exercised by, or imposed on, such payer. "SETTLEMENT AMOUNT" means, with respect to a party and any Early Termination Date, the sum of:-- (a) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Market Quotations (whether positive or negative) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions for which a Market Quotation is determined; and (b) such party's Loss (whether positive or negative and without reference to any Unpaid Amounts) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions for which a Market Quotation cannot be determined or would not (in the reasonable belief of the party making the determination) produce a commercially reasonable result.

"STAMP TAX" means any stamp, registration, documentation or similar tax. "TAX" means any present or future tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, assessment or fee of any nature (including interest, penalties and additions thereto) that is imposed by any government or other taxing authority in respect of any payment under this Agreement other than a stamp, registration, documentation or similar tax.

"TERMINATED TRANSACTIONS" means with respect to any Early Termination Date (a) if resulting from a Termination Event, all Affected Transactions and (b) if resulting from an Event of Default, all Transactions (in either case) in effect immediately before the effectiveness of the notice designating that Early Termination Date (or, if "Automatic Early Termination" applies, immediately before that Early Termination Date). "TERMINATION CURRENCY" has the meaning specified in the Schedule. "TERMINATION CURRENCY EQUIVALENT" means, in respect of any amount denominated in the Termination Currency, such Termination Currency amount and, in respect of any amount denominated in a currency other than the Termination Currency (the "Other Currency"), the amount in the Termination Currency determined by the party making the relevant determination as being required to purchase such amount of such Other Currency as at the relevant Early Termination Date, or, if the relevant Market Quotation or Loss (as the case may be), is determined as of a later date, that later date, with the Termination Currency at the rate equal to the spot exchange rate of the foreign exchange agent (selected as provided below) for the purchase of such Other Currency with the Termination Currency at or about 11:00 a.m. (in the city in which such foreign exchange agent is located) on such date as would be customary for the determination of such a rate for the purchase of such Other Currency for value on the relevant Early Termination Date or that later date. The foreign exchange agent will, if only one party is obliged to make a determination under Section 6(e), be selected in good faith by that party and otherwise will be agreed by the parties. "TERMINATION EVENT" means an illegality, a Tax Event or a Tax Event Upon Merger or, if specified to be applicable, a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event. "TERMINATION RATE" means a rate per annum equal to the arithmetic mean of the cost (without proof or evidence of any actual cost) to each party (as certified by such party) if it were to fund or of funding such amounts. "UNPAID AMOUNTS" owing to any party means, with respect to an Early Termination Date, the aggregate of (a) in respect of all Termination Transactions, the amounts that became payable (or that would have become payable but for Section 2(a)(iii)) to such party under Section 2(a)(i) on or prior to such Early Termination Date and which remain unpaid as at such Early Termination Date and (b) in respect of each Terminated Transaction, for each obligation under Section 2(a)(i) which was (or would have been but for Section 2(a)(iii)) required to be settled by delivery to such party on or prior to such Early Termination Date and which has not been so settled as at such Early Termination Date, an amount equal to the fair market 17 value of that which was (or would have been) required to be delivered as of the originally scheduled date for delivery, in each case together with (to the extent permitted under applicable law) interest, in the currency of such amounts, from (and including) the date such amounts or obligations were or would have been required to have been paid or performed to (but excluding) such Early Termination Date, at the Applicable Rate. Such amounts of interest will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding and the actual number of days elapsed. The fair market value of any obligation referred to in clause (b) above shall be reasonably determined by the party obliged to make the determination under Section 6(e) or, if each party is so obliged, it shall be the average of the Termination Currency Equivalents of the fair market values reasonably determined by both parties.

Party A may transfer this Agreement to another party (the "Transferee"), on ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice, PROVIDED that (i) such notice shall be accompanied by a guarantee by Party A of such Transferee's obligations in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee; (ii) Party A delivers an opinion of independent counsel of recognized standing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee confirming that as of the date of such transfer the Transferee will not, as a result of such transfer, be required to withhold or deduct on account of tax under this Agreement; (iii) a Termination Event or Event of Default does not occur under this Agreement as a result of such transfer and (iv) the Indenture Trustee has received written affirmation of Standard & Poor's and Moody's (or their successors) that such transfer shall not adversely affect the then-current ratings of the Notes.
