Interest Rate Swap
In order to manage interest rate risk, the issuance trust intends to enter
into an interest rate swap with a financial institution with a rating of at least
"A" or its equivalent by at least two nationally recognized rating agencies, as swap
counterparty.
 
Under the interest rate swap, the issuance trust will pay interest monthly
to the swap counterparty on the notional amount based on a floating rate of interest
equal to [   ] LIBOR plus a margin not greater than [  ]% per annum and the
swap counterparty will pay interest monthly to the issuance trust on the
notional amount at the fixed rate of interest applicable to these Class A notes.
 
The interest rate swap will have a notional amount equal to the outstanding dollar principal amount of these Class A notes and will terminate on the expected principal payment date of these Class A notes.
 
The issuance trust’s net swap payments will be paid out of funds available in the interest funding subaccount for these Class A notes. Net swap receipts from the swap counterparty will be deposited into the interest funding subaccount for these Class A notes and will be available to pay interest on these Class A notes.
 
Neither a ratings downgrade or a default by the swap counterparty nor a termination of the interest rate swap will constitute an early redemption event or an event of default with respect to these Class A notes, nor affect the obligation of the issuance trust to pay interest on and principal of these Class A notes.
 
Based on a reasonable good faith estimate of maximum probable exposure, the
significance percentage of the interest rate swap is less than 10%.
Monthly Accumulation Amount:
An amount equal to one twelfth of the initial dollar principal amount of these Class A notes
Maximum Class B Note Subordination:
An amount equal to 5.98291% of the initial dollar principal amount of these Class A notes
