(f) ESTABLISHMENT OF SERIES 2002-1 CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT. On or
prior to the date of any drawing under a Series 2002-1 Letter of Credit
pursuant to Section 2.8(b), (c) or (d) above, AFC-II shall establish and
maintain in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2002-1

maintained, an account (the "Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account"),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein

with a Qualified Institution, or (ii) as a segregated trust account with
the corporate trust department of a depository institution or trust company
having corporate trust powers and acting as trustee for funds deposited in
the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account; PROVIDED that, if at any time
such Qualified Institution is no longer a Qualified Institution or the
credit rating of any securities issued by such depository institution or
trust company shall be reduced to below BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Xxxxx'x,
then AFC-II shall, within 30 days of such reduction, establish a new Series
2002-1 Cash Collateral Account with a new Qualified Institution or a new

AFC-II shall instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer all cash and
investments from the non-qualifying Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account
into the new Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account.
(g) ADMINISTRATION OF THE SERIES 2002-1 CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT.
AFC-II may instruct (by standing instructions or otherwise) the institution
maintaining the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account to invest funds on
deposit in the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account from time to time in
Permitted Investments; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such investment shall
mature not later than the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date
following the date on which such funds were received, unless any Permitted
Investment held in the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account is held with
the Paying
-36-
Agent, in which case such investment may mature on such Distribution Date
so long as such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such
Distribution Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the
Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account and any such Permitted Investments
that constitute (i) physical property (and that is not either a United
States security entitlement or a security entitlement) shall be physically
delivered to the Trustee; (ii) United States security entitlements or
security entitlements shall be controlled by the Trustee pending maturity
or disposition, and (iii) uncertificated securities (and not United States
security entitlements) shall be delivered to the Trustee by causing the
Trustee to become the registered holder of such securities. The Trustee
shall, at the expense of AFC-II, take such action as is required to
maintain the Trustee's security interest in the Permitted Investments
credited to the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account. AFC-II shall not
direct the Trustee to dispose of (or permit the disposal of) any Permitted
Investments prior to the maturity thereof to the extent such disposal would
result in a loss of principal of such Permitted Investment. In the absence
of written investment instructions hereunder, funds on deposit in the
Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account shall remain uninvested.
(h) EARNINGS FROM SERIES 2002-1 CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT. All
interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds
on deposit in the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account shall be deemed to
be on deposit therein and available for distribution.
(i) SERIES 2002-1 CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT SURPLUS. In the event
that the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account Surplus on any Distribution
Date (or, after the Series 2002-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date, on any
date) is greater than zero, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the
written instructions (a copy of which shall be provided by the
Administrator to the Surety Provider) of the Administrator, shall withdraw
from the Series 2002-1 Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the

Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the Series 2002-1
Distribution Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2002-1
Distribution Account from time to time in Permitted Investments; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that any such investment shall mature not later than the Business Day
prior to the Distribution Date following the date on which such funds were
received, unless any Permitted Investment held in the Series 2002-1 Distribution
Account is held with the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such

to such Distribution Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to
the Series 2002-1 Distribution Account.
(c) EARNINGS FROM SERIES 2002-1 DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT. All interest
and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on deposit in
the Series 2002-1 Distribution Account shall be deemed to be on deposit and

security interest in and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to
the Series 2002-1 Agent, for the benefit of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders and

following (whether now or hereafter existing or acquired): (i) the Series 2002-1
Distribution Account, including any security entitlement thereto; (ii) all funds
on deposit therein from time to time; (iii) all certificates and instruments, if

interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time
received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for
the Series 2002-1 Distribution Account, the funds on deposit therein from time
to time or the investments made with such funds; and (vi) all proceeds of any
and all of the foregoing, including, without limitation, cash (the items in the
foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) are referred to, collectively, as the "Series
2002-1 Distribution Account Collateral"). The Series 2002-1 Agent shall possess
all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the
Series 2002-1 Distribution Account and in and to all proceeds thereof, and shall
be the only person authorized to originate entitlement orders in respect of the
Series 2002-1 Distribution Account. The Series 2002-1 Distribution Account
Collateral shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Series 2002-1
Agent for the benefit of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders and the Surety Provider.
Section 2.10 SERIES 2002-1 INTEREST RATE CAPS. (a) On the Series
2002-1 Closing Date, AFC-II shall acquire one or more interest rate caps
acceptable to the Surety Provider (each a "Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap")
from a Qualified Interest Rate Cap Counterparty. The aggregate initial notional
amount of all Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Caps shall equal the Series 2002-1
Initial Invested Amount, and the aggregate notional amount of all Series 2002-1
Interest Rate Caps may be reduced pursuant to the related Series 2002-1 Interest
Rate Cap but shall not at any time be less than the Series 2002-1 Invested
Amount. The strike rate of each Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap shall not be
greater than 5.5%.
(b) If, at any time, an Interest Rate Cap Counterparty does not
have at least one of (x) a short-term unsecured debt rating of at least "A-1" or
(y) a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least "A+" or (z) a counterparty
rating of "AAA", in each case, from S&P, then AFC-II will cause the Interest
Rate Cap Counterparty within 30 days following such occurrence (unless within
such period Standard & Poor's has reaffirmed the immediately prior Shadow
Rating), at the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty's expense, to do one of the
following (the choice of such action to be determined by the Interest Rate Cap
Counterparty) (i) obtain a replacement interest rate cap on the same terms as
the Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap from a Qualified Interest Rate Cap
Counterparty and simultaneously with such replacement AFC-II shall terminate the
Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap being replaced, (ii) obtain a guaranty from, or
contingent agreement of, another person who qualifies as a Qualified Interest
Rate Cap Counterparty to honor the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty's obligations
under the Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap and written confirmation from Standard
& Poor's that the substantive terms of the guaranty agreement are sufficient to
maintain or restore the immediately prior Shadow Rating, (iii) post and maintain
collateral, which Standard & Poor's has confirmed in writing is sufficient to
maintain or restore the immediately prior Shadow Rating or (iv) enter into any
arrangement satisfactory
-39-
to Standard & Poor's, Moody's and the Surety Provider, which is sufficient to
maintain or restore the immediately prior Shadow Rating; PROVIDED that no
termination of the Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap shall occur until AFC-II has
entered into a replacement Interest Rate Cap. Each Series 2002-1 Interest Rate
Cap must provide that if the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty is required to take
any of the actions described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the
preceding sentence and such action is not taken within 30 days, then the
Interest Rate Cap Counterparty must, until a replacement Series 2002-1 Interest
Rate Cap is executed and in effect, collateralize its obligations under such
Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap in an amount equal to the greatest of (i) the
marked to market value of such Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap, (ii) the next
payment due from the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty and (iii) 1% of the notional
amount of such Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap.
(c) If (x) an Interest Rate Cap Counterparty is not a Moody's
Qualified Interest Rate Cap Counterparty, or (y) the long-term senior and
unsecured debt rating of the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty falls below "Al"
from Moody's or "A+" by Standard & Poor's or (z) the short-term senior and
unsecured debt rating of the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty falls below "P-1"
from Moody's or "A-1" from Standard & Poor's, then, in each case AFC-II shall
cause the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty within 30 days following such
occurrence to do one of the following (i) enter into a replacement Series 2002-1
Interest Rate Cap with a Qualified Interest Rate Cap Counterparty on
substantially similar terms to the Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap being
replaced, and simultaneously with such replacement, AFC-II shall terminate the
Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap being replaced, (ii) obtain a guaranty of the
obligation of the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty under the Series 2002-1
Interest Rate Cap from another person who qualifies as a Qualified Interest Rate
Cap Counterparty, (iii) enter into a collateral agreement with the Interest Rate
Cap Counterparty, the Surety Provider and a third-party collateral agent, if
necessary, in form and substance and with collateral acceptable to the Surety
Provider to post and maintain collateral, in an amount at least equal to the
xxxx-to-market value of the Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap, which is sufficient
to restore the immediately prior Shadow Rating or (iv) enter into any
arrangement satisfactory to Standard & Poor's, Moody's and the Surety Provider.
If the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty fails to take any of the actions described
in clauses (i) through (iv) of the preceding sentence upon the occurrence of any
of the events described in clauses (y) or (z) of the preceding sentence, or if
at any time the long-term senior and unsecured debt rating of the Interest Rate
Cap Counterparty is withdrawn or falls below "Baal" by Moody's or "BBB+" by
Standard & Poor's, then the Surety Provider may terminate the Series 2001-2
Interest Rate Cap; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap
shall not terminate until the completion of either (A) or (B) below: (A) the
Interest Rate Cap Counterparty, or AFC-II at the direction of the Surety
Provider, and in each case at the expense of the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty,
obtains a replacement Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap with a Qualified Interest
Rate Cap Counterparty on substantially similar terms to the Series 2002-1
Interest Rate Cap being replaced (or with modifications acceptable to the Surety
Provider) or (B) the Interest Rate Cap Counterparty at its expense enters into
any arrangement satisfactory to Standard & Poor's, Moody's and the Surety
Provider.
(d) To secure payment of all obligations to the Series 2002-1
Noteholders and the Surety Provider, AFC-II grants a security interest in, and
assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to the Series 2002-1 Agent,
for the benefit of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders and the Surety Provider, all of
AFC-II's right, title and interest in the Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Caps
-40-
and all proceeds thereof (the "Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap Collateral").
AFC-II shall require all Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap Proceeds to be paid to,
and the Trustee shall allocate all Series 2002-1 Interest Rate Cap Proceeds to,
the Series 2002-1 Accrued Interest Account of the Series 2002-1 Collection
Account.

(whether now or hereafter existing or acquired): (i) the Series 2002-1 Demand
Notes; (ii) all certificates and instruments, if any, representing or evidencing
the Series 2002-1 Demand Notes; and (iii) all proceeds of any and all of the

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Indenture or the
Related Documents, upon the Trustee's receipt of notice from any Lessee, any
Borrower or AFC-II (i) to the effect that a Manufacturer Program is no longer an
Eligible Manufacturer Program and that, as a result, the Series 2002-1 Maximum
Non-Program Vehicle Amount is or will be exceeded or (ii) that the Lessees, the
Borrowers and AFC-II have determined to increase any Series 2002-1 Maximum
Amount, (such notice, a "Waiver Request"), each Series 2002-1 Noteholder may, at
its option, waive the Series 2002-1 Maximum Non-Program Vehicle Amount or any
other Series 2002-1 Maximum Amount if (i) no Amortization Event exists, (ii) the
Requisite Noteholders and the Surety Provider consent to such waiver and (iii)
60 days' prior written notice of such proposed waiver is provided to the Rating
Agencies by the Trustee.
Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Waiver Request (a copy of which the
Trustee shall promptly provide to the Rating Agencies), all amounts which would
otherwise be allocated to the Series 2002-1 Excess Collection Account
(collectively, the "Designated Amounts") from the date the Trustee receives a
Waiver Request through the Consent Period Expiration Date will be held by the
Trustee in the Series 2002-1 Collection Account for ratable distribution as
described below.
Within ten (10) Business Days after the Trustee receives a Waiver
Request, the Trustee shall furnish notice thereof to the Series 2002-1
Noteholders and the Surety Provider, which notice shall be accompanied by a form
of consent (each a "Consent") in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto by which the
Series 2002-1 Noteholders may, on or before the Consent Period Expiration Date,
consent to waiver of the applicable Series 2002-1 Maximum Amount. If the Trustee
receives the consent of the Surety Provider and Consents from the Requisite
Noteholders agreeing to waiver of the applicable Series 2002-1 Maximum Amount
within forty-five (45) days after the Trustee notifies the Series 2002-1
Noteholders of a Waiver Request (the day on which such forty-five (45) day
period expires, the "Consent Period Expiration Date"), (i) the applicable Series
2002-1 Maximum Amount shall be deemed waived by the consenting Series 2002-1
Noteholders, (ii) the Trustee will distribute the Designated Amounts as set
forth below and (iii) the Trustee shall promptly (but in any event within two
days) provide the Rating Agency with notice of such waiver. Any Series 2002-1
Noteholder from whom the Trustee has not received a Consent on or before the
Consent Period Expiration Date will be deemed not to have consented to such
waiver.
-43-
If the Trustee receives Consents from the Requisite Noteholders on or
before the Consent Period Expiration Date, then on the immediately following
Distribution Date, the Trustee will pay the Designated Amounts as follows:
(i) to the non-consenting Series 2002-1 Noteholders, if any, PRO
RATA up to the amount required to pay all Series 2002-1 Notes held by such
non-consenting Series 2002-1 Noteholders in full; and
(ii) any remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2002-1 Excess
Collection Account.
If the amount paid pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph
is not paid in full on the date specified therein, then on each day following
such Distribution Date, the Administrator will allocate to the Series 2002-1
Collection Account on a daily basis all Designated Amounts collected on such
day. On each following Distribution Date, the Trustee will withdraw a portion of
such Designated Amounts from the Series 2002-1 Collection Account and deposit
the same in the Series 2002-1 Distribution Account for distribution as follows:
(a) to the non-consenting Series 2002-1 Noteholders, if any, PRO
RATA an amount equal to the Designated Amounts in the Series 2002-1
Collection Account as of the applicable Determination Date up to the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Series 2002-1 Notes held by
the non-consenting Series 2002-1 Noteholders; and
(b) any remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2002-1 Excess
Collection Account.

consent to such waiver, the Designated Amounts will be re-allocated to the
Series 2002-1 Excess Collection Account for allocation and distribution in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Related Documents.
In the event that the Series 2002-1 Rapid Amortization Period shall
commence after receipt by the Trustee of a Waiver Request, all such Designated
Amounts will thereafter be considered Principal Collections allocated to the
Series 2002-1 Noteholders.

herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any distribution of principal of or
interest on the Series 2002-1 Notes that is made with moneys received pursuant
to the terms of the Surety Bond shall not (except for the purpose of calculating
the Principal Deficit Amount) be considered payment of the Series 2002-1 Notes

on the Series 2002-1 Notes
-48-
to the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders or to the Series
2002-1 Noteholders (including any Preference Amounts as defined in the Surety

the extent of the payments so made to be a Series 2002-1 Noteholder and (ii) the

Series 2002-1 Notes, including any Preference Amount, as defined in the Surety
Bond, the Surety Provider is to be fully subrogated to the extent of such
payment and any additional interest due on any late payment, to the rights of
the Series 2002-1 Noteholders under the Indenture. Each of AFC-II and the
Trustee agree to such subrogation and, further, agree to take such actions as
the Surety Provider may reasonably request in writing to evidence such
subrogation.
