Section 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLER AND TMCC.

statement and such additional registration statement or (ii) any such
additional registration statement proposed to be filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) will become effective upon filing
pursuant to Rule 462(b) and upon such filing the Notes will have been
duly registered under the Act pursuant to the initial registration
statement and such additional registration statement. If the Seller
does not propose to amend the initial registration statement, any such
additional registration statement or any post-effective amendment to
either such registration statement filed with the Commission prior to
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, then the most recent
amendment (if any) to each such registration statement has been
declared effective by the Commission or has become effective upon
filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) under the Act ("Rule 462(c)") or Rule
462(b).
For purposes of this Agreement, "Effective Time" with respect
to the initial registration statement or, if filed prior to the

Commission or has become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c)
or (B) if the Seller has advised the Representatives that it proposes
to file an amendment or post-effective amendment to such registration
statement, the date and time as of which such registration statement as
amended by such amendment or post-effective amendment, as the case may
be, is declared effective by the Commission. If the Seller has advised
the Representatives that it proposes to file, but has not filed, an
additional registration statement. Prior to the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, "Effective Time" with respect to such additional
registration statement means the date and time as of which such
registration statement is filed and becomes effective pursuant to Rule
462(b). "Effective Date" with respect to the initial registration
statement or the additional registration statement (if any) means the

Effective Time, including all information (A) contained in the
additional registration statement (if any), (B) deemed to be a part of
the initial registration statement as of the Effective Time of the
additional registration statement (if any) pursuant to the General
Instructions of the Form on which it is filed and (C) deemed to be a
part of the initial registration statement as of its Effective Time
pursuant to Rule 430A(b) under the Act ("Rule 430A(b)"), is hereinafter
referred to as the "Initial Registration Statement". The additional
registration statement, as amended at its Effective Time, including (A)
the contents of the initial registration statement incorporated by
reference therein and (B) deemed to be a part of the additional
registration statement as of its Effective Time pursuant to Rule
430A(b), is hereinafter referred to as the "Additional Registration
Statement." The Initial Registration Statement and the Additional
Registration Statement are hereinafter referred to collectively as the
"Registration Statements" and individually as a "Registration
Statement." The form of
-3-
prospectus supplement relating to the Notes (the "Prospectus
Supplement") and the form of prospectus (the "Base Prospectus")
relating to the Registered Securities (including the Notes), as first
filed with the Commission in connection with the offering and sale of
the Notes pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Act
("Rule 424(b)") or, if no such filing is required, as included in a
Registration Statement, including all material incorporated by
reference in such prospectus, is hereinafter referred to as the
"Prospectus". Any reference herein to "Registration Statement" or
"Prospectus" shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents
incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3
which were filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, (the "Exchange Act") on or before the Effective Date of the
Registration Statement or the issue date of the Prospectus, as the
case may be; and any reference herein to the terms "amend",
"amendment" or "supplement" with respect to the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing

Registration Statement, or the issue date of the Prospectus, as the
case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference; any
reference in this Agreement to documents, financial statements and
schedules and other information which is "contained", "included",
"stated", "described" or "referred to" in the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be
deemed to mean and include all such documents, financial statements
and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus, as the case may be.
(ii) (A) On the Effective Date of any Registration Statement

of this Agreement each such Registration Statement conforms and (C) on
any related Effective Date subsequent to the date of this Agreement,
each such Registration Statement will conform, in all material respects
with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission promulgated under the Act (the "Rules and Regulations"), and
at such times did not and will not include any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. At

no such filing is required, at the Effective Date of the Additional
Registration Statement that includes the Prospectus, on the date of
this Agreement and at the Closing Date (as such term is defined in
Section 3 hereof), the Prospectus will conform in all material respects
to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, and does
not include, or will not include, any untrue statement of a material
fact nor does the Prospectus omit, nor will it omit, any material fact,
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The two
immediately preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or
omissions from a Registration Statement or the Prospectus based upon

Section 7(a) or to that part of the Registration Statement which

Registration Statement is subsequent to the date of this Agreement, no
Additional Registration Statement has been or will be filed.
(iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Basic Documents, and the fulfillment of the
terms thereof, will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of
the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in
the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any of the

indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, guarantee, lease
financing agreement or similar agreement or instrument under which the
Seller or TMCC is a debtor or guarantor.

court or governmental agency or body is required to be obtained or made

required under state securities laws and the filing of any financing
statements required to perfect the transfer of the Receivables.
(v) Neither the Seller nor TMCC is in violation of its charter
or by-laws or in default in the performance or observance of any
obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any agreement
or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or its properties
are bound which could have a material adverse effect on the
transactions contemplated herein or in the Basic Documents. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Basic
Documents and the issuance and sale of the Notes and compliance with
the terms and provisions of the Notes will not, subject to obtaining
any consents or approvals as my be required under the securities laws
of various jurisdictions in the United States and elsewhere), result in
a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or
constitute a default under, any statute, rule, regulation or order of
any governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction over
the Seller or TMCC or any of their respective properties or any
agreement or instrument to which the Seller or TMCC is a party or by

defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"Investment Company Act").
(b) As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of the
Seller and of TMCC in each of the Basic Documents to which it is a party will be

with the several Underwriters that:
-7-
(a) If the Effective Time is prior to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Seller will file the Prospectus with
the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) not later
than the second business day following the execution and delivery of
this Agreement. The Seller will advise the Representatives promptly of
any such filing pursuant to Rule 424(b). If the Effective Time of the

thereof has not occurred as of such execution and delivery, the Seller
will file the Additional Registration Statement or a post-effective
amendment thereto, as the case may be, with the Commission pursuant to
and in accordance with Rule 424(b) on or prior to 10:00 p.m., New York

(b) The Seller will advise the Representatives promptly of any
proposal to amend or supplement the initial registration statement or

related Effective Time is subsequent to the execution and delivery of

Statement or the Prospectus and of the institution by the Commission of
any stop order proceedings in respect of any Registration Statement and
will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop
order and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting, if issued.
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Notes is
required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a result of
which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is
necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply
with the Act, the Seller will promptly notify the Representatives and
will promptly prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, with
the Commission an amendment or supplement which will correct such
statement, or omission, or an amendment or supplement which will effect
such compliance. Neither the Representatives consent to, nor the
delivery by the Representatives of, any such amendment or supplement
shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section
6 hereof.
(d) As soon as practicable, but not later than the
Availability Date (as defined below), the Seller will cause the Owner
Trustee to make generally available to the Noteholders an earnings
statement with respect to the Trust covering a period of at least

time, on the second business day following the later of the execution
and delivery of this Agreement or the Effective Time of the Initial
Registration Statement. All other documents shall be furnished as soon
as available and in such quantities as the Representatives reasonably

to the Underwriters all such documents.
(f) The Seller will arrange for the qualification of the Notes
for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions in the United
States as the Representatives may reasonably designate and will
continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the

obligated to qualify to do business nor become subject to service of
process generally, but only to the extent required for such
qualification, in any jurisdiction in which it is not currently so
qualified.

TMCC, as the case may be, will deliver or cause to be delivered to the

the ownership by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust of such
-9-
Receivables, other than as permitted by the Sale and Servicing
Agreement or as required by law.
(i) The Seller and TMCC will pay all expenses incident to the
performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement,

reproduction and distribution of the Registration Statement as
originally filed and each amendment thereto and the Prospectus

Underwriters for any expenses (including reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Underwriters in connection
with the qualification of the Notes for sale under the securities laws
of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Representatives may
designate pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof and in connection with the
preparation of any blue sky or legal investment survey, if any is
required.
(j) For a period of 14 days from the date hereof, neither the
Seller, TMCC nor any of their respective affiliates will, without the
prior written consent of the Representatives, directly or indirectly,
offer, sell or contract to sell or announce the offering of, in a
public or private transaction, any other collateralized securities
similar to the Notes.
(k) So long as any Notes are outstanding, the Seller and TMCC
will cause to be delivered to the Representatives a reliance letter
relating to each Opinion of Counsel delivered to any Rating Agency by
counsel to the Seller or counsel to TMCC pursuant to the Basic
Documents.
(l) To the extent if any, that the rating at the Closing Date
provided with respect to the Notes by any Rating Agency is conditional
upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other actions by
the Seller or TMCC, the Seller or TMCC, as the case may be, shall
furnish such documents and take any such other actions as may be
required. A copy of any such document shall be sent to the
Representatives at the time it is sent to either Rating Agency.

In addition, such counsel shall state that such counsel has
participated in conferences with the officers and other representatives of
TMCC and the Seller, representatives of the independent public accountants
therefor and the Underwriters, at which the contents of the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed and, although
such counsel is not passing upon, and does not assume any responsibility for,
the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained therein
and has not made any independent check or verification thereof, during the
course of such participation (relying in its determination as to materiality
to an extent upon the statements of officers and other representatives of
TMCC and the Seller), such counsel does not believe that any Registration
Statement, at the related Effective Time, or any such amendment or
supplement, as of its effective date, contained any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that
the Prospectus, at the date of the Prospectus Supplement (or any such
amendment or supplement, as of its respective date) or at the Closing Date
included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or
omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; it being understood that such counsel need express no opinion or
belief as to any financial statements or other financial, numerical or
statistical data contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration
Statement or the Prospectus or the Trustee's Statement of Qualification on
Form T-1.
Such counsel's opinions as to enforceability shall be subject to the
unenforceability under certain circumstances: (1) of waivers of rights
granted by law where the waivers are against public policy or prohibited by
law; (2) of waivers of vaguely or broadly stated rights or future rights; (3)
of any indemnification provisions; (4) of any provisions that rights or
remedies are not exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative and may
be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy or that the
election of some particular remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to
one or more other remedies; (5) the unenforceability under certain
circumstances of choice of law provisions; and (6) the unenforceability under
certain circumstances of severability provisions, provided that such
enforceability will not, subject to the other exceptions, qualifications and
limitations contained in such opinion, render the relevant agreements invalid
as a whole or substantially interfere with the substantial realization of the
principal benefits that such agreements purport to provide (except for the
economic consequences of procedural or other delay).
(2) The favorable opinion, dated the Closing Date, of Xxxx
X. Xxxxx, Esq., General Counsel of TMCC and counsel to the Seller,
in form and scope to the Representatives and their counsel, to the
effect that:
-16-
(i) Each of the Seller and TMCC is a corporation duly
organized, existing and in good standing under the laws of
the State of California.
(ii) Each of the Seller and TMCC is duly incorporated
or qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business
and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which their
respective ownership or lease of substantial properties or
the conduct of their respective businesses requires such
qualification and in which the failure to so qualify and be
in good standing would materially adversely affect their
respective businesses or financial condition.
(iii) To such counsel's knowledge (A) there are no
legal or governmental proceedings pending or threatened
against TMCC or in connection with the origination and
servicing of the Receivables by TMCC which are required to
be disclosed in the Registration Statements, other than
those disclosed therein, (B) there are no legal or
governmental proceedings to which TMCC is a party or to
which any of its property is subject which are not
described in TMCC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended September 30, 1998, or its Quarterly Reports for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999, which are required to be
disclosed therein other than those disclosed therein and
(C) there are no pending legal or governmental proceedings
to which the Seller is a party or to which any of its
property is subject.
(iv) To such counsel's knowledge (A) no default
exists in the due performance or observance by TMCC of any
obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in
any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement note,
lease or other instrument to which it is a party or by
which it may be bound, which default would have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, earnings,
business affairs, business prospects, properties or results
of operations of TMCC and its subsidiaries considered as
one enterprise, and (B) other than this Agreement, and the
Basic Documents and the corresponding agreements in
connection with the Toyota Auto Receivables 1995-A Grantor
Trust, the Toyota Auto Receivables 1996-A Grantor Trust and
the Toyota Auto Receivables 1997-A Grantor Trust and the
subordinated notes payable to TMCC the Seller is not a
party to any material contract, indenture, mortgage, loan
agreement, note, lease or other instrument.
(v) The transfer of the Receivables and the other
property of the Trust transferred by TMCC to the Seller
pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the
execution delivery and performance of the Basic Documents
and this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
herein and therein contemplated will not (A) conflict with
or constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in
the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or
assets of TMCC or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, any
material contract, indenture,
-17-
mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument
known to such counsel to which TMCC or any of its
subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may
be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of TMCC
or any of its subsidiaries is subject, (B) result in any
violation of the provisions of the charter or bylaws of
TMCC or (C) to such counsel's knowledge, result in any
violation of any applicable law, administrative regulation
or administrative or court decree.
(vi) The transfer of the Receivables to the Owner
Trustee acting on behalf of the Trust the assignment of the
security interest of the Seller in the Financed Vehicles,
the issuance and sale of the Notes, and the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Basic Documents and the
Notes, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated herein and therein will not (A) conflict with
or constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in
the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or
assets of the Seller pursuant to, any contract, indenture,
mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument
to which the Seller is a party or by which it may be bound,
or to which any of the property or assets of the Seller is
subject, (B) result in any violation of the provisions of
the charter or bylaws of the Seller or (C) to such
counsel's knowledge, result in any violation of any
applicable law, administrative regulation or administrative
or court decree.
(vii) Each of the Seller and TMCC has obtained all
necessary licenses and approvals under the federal law of
the United States and the laws of the State of California
to conduct their respective businesses in which the failure
to obtain such licenses and approvals would render any
Receivable or any other material part of the corpus of the
Trust unenforceable or would materially and adversely
affect the ability of either the Seller or TMCC to perform
any of their respective obligations under, or the
enforceability of, any of the Basic Documents.
(viii) Such counsel is familiar with the standard
operating procedures of TMCC relating to the acquisition by
TMCC of a first perfected security interest in the
automobiles and/or light duty trucks financed by the retail
installment sale contracts purchased by TMCC in the
ordinary course of its business and relating to the sale to
TMCC of such contracts and such security interests in the
automobiles or light duty trucks financed thereby in the
ordinary course of its business. Assuming that such
standard procedures are followed with respect to the
perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles
(and such counsel has no reason to believe that TMCC has
not or will not continue to follow its standard procedures
in connection with the perfection of first perfected
security interests in the Financed Vehicles), TMCC has
acquired a first perfected security interest in the
Financed Vehicles.

(iii) Neither the execution nor delivery by U.S.

consummation of any of the transactions by U.S. Bank
contemplated thereby require the consent or approval of,

or state law governing the banking or trust powers of U.S.
Bank.
(iv) The execution and delivery of each Basic

special Delaware counsel for the Trust, dated the Closing Date, in form
and scope satisfactory to the Representatives and counsel for the
Representatives, to the effect that:

regard to conflicts of laws principles), and assuming that
the security interest created by the Indenture in the
Receivables has been duly created and has attached, upon
the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware the Trustee
will have a perfected security interest in such Receivables
and the proceeds thereof, and such security interest will

security interests in proceeds under ss. 9-306(3) of the

Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State.
(viii) Neither the consummation by the Owner Trustee
or Delaware Trustee of the transactions contemplated in the
Trust Agreement or, on behalf of the Trust, the transactions
contemplated in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing
Agreement nor the fulfillment of the terms thereof by the
Owner Trustee will conflict with or result in a breach or
violation of any law of the State of Delaware applicable to
the Trust.
Such opinion may contain such assumptions, qualifications and
limitations as are customary in opinions of this type and are reasonably
acceptable to counsel to the Representatives. In rendering such opinion, such
counsel may state that they express no opinion as to the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the federal law of the United States of America and the

Section 7. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
(a) The Seller and TMCC will, jointly and severally, indemnify and
hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several as incurred, to which such Underwriter may become
subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any Registration Statement, the Term Sheet, the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each
Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that neither the Seller nor TMCC will be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission
from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Seller or TMCC by any Underwriter through the
Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed
that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the
information in the Prospectus appearing in the first textual paragraphs under
the tables on page S-46 and the first textual paragraph under the first table on
page S-47, the second table on page S-47 insofar as it describes the Selling
Concessions and the Reallowances, the last three paragraphs on page S-47 and the
second sentence of the third paragraph on page S-48, under the caption
"Underwriting" (the "Underwriters' Information"); provided that neither TMCC nor
the Seller shall be liable under this subsection (a) to any Underwriter to the
extent that such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arose out of or are
based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any Term Sheet that is
corrected in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) that has
been previously made available to such Underwriter if the person asserting such
loss, claim, damage or liability was not sent or given the Prospectus (or any
amendment or supplement thereto) on or prior to the confirmation of the sale of
the Notes.
(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and
hold harmless each of the Seller and TMCC, against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several as incurred, to which the Seller or
TMCC, may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of
or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in any Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
-24-
of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to
the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Seller or TMCC by such Underwriter
through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood
and agreed that the only such information furnished by such Underwriter
consists of such Underwriter's Underwriters' Information and will reimburse
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Seller and TMCC in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action as such expenses are incurred.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than
under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to
the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the
indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from
the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume
the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which
indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 7 (whether or
not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless
such settlement, compromise or consent does not contain a statement as to or an
admission of fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of any
indemnified party (unless such statement is agreed to by the indemnified party
in writing); provided, however, that in the event such settlement, compromise or
consent by the indemnifying party does not include an unconditional release of
each indemnified party from all liability arising out of any litigation,
investigation, proceeding or claim, the provisions of this Section with respect
to indemnification shall continue and survive.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable
or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or
(b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Seller and TMCC
on
-25-
the one hand and the Class A Underwriters, the Class B Underwriters or the
Class C Underwriters, as applicable, on the other hand, from the offering of the
Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the Seller and TMCC on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Seller and TMCC on the one
hand and the Class A Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same
proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting
expenses) received by the Seller and TMCC bear to the total underwriting
discounts and commissions received by the Class A Underwriters, the relative
benefits received by the Seller and TMCC on the one hand and the Class B
Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the
total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the
Seller and TMCC bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions
received by the Class B Underwriters and the relative benefits received by the
Seller and TMCC on the one hand and the Class C Underwriters and the other shall
be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the
offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Seller and TMCC bear to the
total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Class C
Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Seller or TMCC or the Underwriters and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in
the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this
subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no
Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which the total price at which the Notes underwritten by it and distributed
to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which
such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in this subsection
(d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting
obligations and not joint.
(e) The obligations of the Seller and TMCC under this Section shall be
in addition to any liability that the Seller or TMCC may otherwise have and
shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who
controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of
the Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability that
the respective Underwriters my otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same
terms and conditions, to each director of the Seller or TMCC, to each officer of
the Seller or
-26-
TMCC who has signed any Registration Statement and to each person,
if any, who controls the Seller or TMCC within the meaning of the Act.
Section 8. DEFAULT OF UNDERWRITERS. If any Class A Underwriter or Underwriters
default in their obligations to purchase Notes hereunder and (i) the aggregate
principal amount of Class A-1 Notes (in the case of the Class A-1 Underwriters),
that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase
does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes, (ii)
the aggregate principal amount of Class A-2 Notes (in the case of the Class A-2
Underwriters) that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed
to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of the Class A-2
Notes, (iii) the aggregate principal amount of Class A-3 Notes (in the case of
the Class A-3 Underwriters) that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters
agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount
of the Class A-3 Notes, (iv) the aggregate principal amount of Class B Notes (in
the case of the Class B Underwriters) that such defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total
principal amount of Class B Notes and (v) the aggregate principal amount of
Class C Notes (in the case of the Class C Underwriters) that such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of
the total principal amount of Class C Notes, the Representatives may make
arrangements satisfactory to the Seller and TMCC for the purchase of such Class
A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes, Class B Notes or Class C Notes, as
the case may be, by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no
such arrangements are made by the Closing Date the non-defaulting Class A-1
Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective
commitments hereunder, to purchase the Class A-1 Notes, the non-defaulting Class
A-2 Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective
commitments hereunder, to purchase the Class A-2 Notes, the non-defaulting Class
A-3 Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective
commitments hereunder, to purchase the Class A-3 Notes, the non-defaulting Class
B Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective
commitments hereunder, to purchase the Class B Notes, and the non-defaulting
Class C Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their
respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Class C Notes, in each case
that such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase. If any such
default or defaults occur and such default or defaults exceed 10% of the total
principal amount of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3
Notes, the Class B Notes or the Class C Notes, as the case may be, and
arrangements satisfactory to the Seller and TMCC for the purchase of such Notes
by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement
will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter,
the Seller or TMCC, except as provided in Section 9 hereof. As used in this
Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for an
Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting
Underwriter from liability for its default.
Section 9. SURVIVAL OF CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AND OBLIGATIONS. The
respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other
statements of the Seller and TMCC or their respective officers and of the
several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant
-27-
to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
investigation or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of
any Underwriter, the Seller, TMCC or any of their respective representatives,
officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of
and payment for the Notes. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
Section 8 hereof or if for any reason the purchase of the Notes by the
Underwriters is not consummated, the Seller and TMCC shall remain responsible
for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by the Seller and TMCC pursuant to
Section 5(i) hereof and the respective obligations of the Seller, TMCC and
the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 hereof shall remain in effect. If the
purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason
other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 8 hereof or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii),
(iv) or (v) of Section 6(c) hereof, the Seller and TMCC will reimburse the
Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements
of counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection with the offering of the
Notes.

and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and no
other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

offering material and will obtain any consent, approval or permission required

any responsibility therefor;
(b) No action has been or will be taken by such Underwriter that would
permit a public offering of the Notes or possession, or distribution of any
offering material in relation to the Notes in any jurisdiction where action for
that purpose is required unless the Seller or TMCC has agreed to such actions

(c) Each Underwriter represents and agrees that it will not offer, sell
or deliver any of the Notes or distribute any such offering material in or from
any jurisdiction except under circumstances, which will result in compliance
with applicable laws and regulations and which will not impose any obligation on

(d) Such Underwriter acknowledges that it is not authorized to give any
information or make any representations in relation to the Notes other than
those contained or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus for the Notes and
such additional information, if any, as the Seller or TMCC shall, in writing,
provide to and authorize such Underwriter so to use and distribute to actual and
potential purchasers of Notes; and
(e) Each Underwriter has complied and will comply with all applicable
provisions of the Financial Services Act 1986 ("FSA") with respect to anything
done by such Underwriter in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise
involving the United Kingdom; and
(f) Each Underwriter will have only issued or passed on and will only
issue or pass on in the United Kingdom any document received by it in connection
with the issue of the Notes, to a person who is of a kind described in Article
11(3) of the FSA (Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order 1996 or is a
person to whom such document may otherwise lawfully be issued or passed on.

of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
