with the directions of the Owner Trustee, the Administrator shall administer,
perform or supervise the performance of such other activities in connection with

are reasonably within the capability of the Administrator. Such
responsibilities shall include providing to the Depositor and the Indenture
Trustee the monthly servicing report in an appropriate electronic

to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other obligations under this
Agreement, the Administrator may enter into transactions or otherwise deal with
any of its affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any such

connection with TALF, the Administrator shall be authorized to execute and
deliver on behalf of the Issuer any documents, certificates, agreements and

preceding sentence, “non-ministerial matters” shall include, without
limitation:

which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations

Administrator shall have no authority to act for or represent the Issuer or the
Owner Trustee in any way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the
Issuer or the Owner Trustee.

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

Section
7.
|
Other Activities of
Administrator.
|
Nothing
herein shall prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other
businesses or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an
administrator for any other person or entity even though such person or entity
may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.
The
Administrator and its affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business
with any person party to a Related Agreement, any of its affiliates and any
person who may do business with or own securities of any such person or any of

provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of Noteholders or the
Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment may (a) reduce the
interest rate or principal amount of any Note or Certificate or delay the Stated
Maturity Date of any Note without the consent of any Holder of such Note or
(b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the holders of Notes and Trust
Certificates which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the
consent of the holders of all the outstanding Notes and Trust Certificates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may not amend this Agreement
without the permission of the Seller, which permission shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Prior to consenting to any such amendment the Indenture
Trustee shall have the right to receive (at other than its own expense) an
Opinion of Counsel that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this
Agreement.

Section
12. Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by the
Administrator unless such assignment is previously consented to in writing by
the Issuer and the Owner Trustee and subject to the satisfaction of the Rating
Agency Condition in respect thereof. An assignment with such consent
and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder
in the same manner as the Administrator is bound
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be
assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee to a corporation or other organization that is a successor (by merger,
consolidation or purchase of assets) to the Administrator; provided that such
successor organization executes and delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee an agreement in which such corporation or other
organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in the
same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder and represents that it has
the financial ability to satisfy its indemnification obligations
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator can
transfer its obligations to any affiliate that succeeds to substantially all of
the assets and liabilities of the Administrator and who has represented and
warranted that it is not less creditworthy than the
Administrator. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind
any successors or assigns of the parties hereto.
Section
13. GOVERNING
LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW
PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER

Section
14. Headings. The
section headings hereof have been inserted for convenience of reference only and

Agreement.
Section
15. Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall
be an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same
agreement.
Section
16. Severability. Any
provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section
17. Not
Applicable to Citibank, N.A. in Other Capacities. Nothing in
this Agreement shall affect any obligation Citibank, N.A. may have in any other
capacity.

the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the
benefits of, the terms and provisions of Articles VI, VII and VIII of the Trust

the certificates, notices or agreements delivered pursuant hereto, as to all of
which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer.
(c) No
recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer contained in
this Agreement shall be had against any agent of the Issuer (including the
Administrator and the Owner Trustee) as such by the enforcement of any
assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or
otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is
solely an obligation of the Issuer as a Delaware statutory trust, and that no
personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any agent of the
Issuer (including the Administrator and the Owner Trustee), as such, under or by
reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Issuer
contained in this Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal
liability for breaches by the Issuer of any such obligations, covenants or
agreements, either at common law or at equity, or by statute or constitution, of
every such agent is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in
consideration for the execution of this Agreement.
Section
19. Third-Party
Beneficiary. The Seller, the Depositor and the Owner Trustee
are third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement and are entitled to the rights
and benefits hereunder and may enforce the provisions hereof as if each were a
party hereto.

Agreement, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee shall not, prior to the

Issuer to invoke the process of any court of government authority for the
purpose of commencing or sustaining a case against the Issuer under any Federal
or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official
of the Issuer or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding
up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer.

Agreement, the Administrator shall not have any obligations under this Agreement
other than those specifically set forth herein, and no implied obligations of
the Administrator shall be read into this Agreement. Neither the
Administrator nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it or them
under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own
negligence or willful misconduct and in no event shall the Administrator be
liable under or in connection with this Agreement for indirect, special or
consequential losses or damages of any kind, including lost profits, even if
advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the form of action by which
such losses or damages may be claimed. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Administrator may (a) consult with legal counsel (including
counsel for the Issuer), independent public accountants and other experts
selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel,
accountants or experts and (b) shall incur no liability under or in respect of
this Agreement by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone),
consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile)
