THIS POOLING AGREEMENT is made as of July 28, 2008 by and between Navistar Financial Retail Receivables Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“NFRRC” and, in its capacity as the Seller hereunder, the “Seller”), and Navistar Financial 2008-B Owner Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”).
WHEREAS, NFC has sold the Initial Receivables and the Related Security, and has agreed to sell Subsequent Receivables from time to time, to the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
WHEREAS, the Seller desires to sell the Initial Receivables and the Subsequent Receivables and the Related Security to the Issuer in exchange for the Securities and the receipt of funds drawn under the Notes.
WHEREAS, the Seller and the Issuer wish to set forth the terms pursuant to which the Receivables and the Related Security are to be sold from time to time by the Seller to the Issuer.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the other good and valuable consideration and the mutual terms and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

DEFINITIONS

Certain capitalized terms used in the above recitals and in this Agreement are defined in and shall have the respective meanings assigned them in Part I of Appendix A to this Agreement. All references herein to “the Agreement” or “this Agreement” are to this Pooling Agreement as it may be amended, supplemented (whether in connection with a Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment or otherwise) or modified from time to time, the exhibits hereto and the capitalized terms used herein which are defined in such Appendix A, and all references herein to Articles, Sections and subsections are to Articles, Sections or subsections of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The rules of construction set forth in Part II of such Appendix A shall be applicable to this Agreement.
ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF RECEIVABLES; ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
SECTION 2.01 Conveyance of Initial Receivables. In consideration of the Issuer’s delivery of the Securities to, or upon the order of, the Seller and the receipt by the Seller of the funds drawn under the Notes on the date hereof, the Seller does hereby enter into this Agreement and agree to fulfill all of its obligations hereunder and hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Issuer, as of the date hereof, without recourse (except as provided in Section 2.06), pursuant to an assignment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Initial PSA Assignment”), all right, title and interest of the Seller in, to and under:
(a) the Retail Notes identified on the Schedule of Retail Notes to the Initial PSA Assignment delivered to the Issuer and the Related Security with respect to those Retail Notes; and
(b) the rights, but not the obligations, acquired by the Seller under the Purchase Agreement and the Initial PA Assignment pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the Initial Receivables.
It is the intention of the Seller and the Issuer that the transfer and assignment contemplated by this Section 2.01 shall constitute a sale of the Initial Receivables and Related Security by the Seller to the Issuer and the beneficial interest in and title to the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall not be part of the Seller’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law. The Seller intends to treat such transfer and assignment as a sale for tax and other purposes and as a secured financing for accounting purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such transfer and assignment did not constitute such a sale or that such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable or that such beneficial interest is a part of the Seller’s estate (any of the foregoing, a “Recharacterization”), then (i) the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to the Issuer a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Seller’s right title and interest in, to and under the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01, and the Seller hereby grants such security interest, and (ii) the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be deemed to include all rights, powers and options (but none of the obligations, if any) of the Seller under any agreement or instrument included in the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01, including the immediate and continuing right to claim for, collect, receive and give receipt for principal and interest payments in respect of the Initial Receivables included in the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01 and all other monies payable under the Initial Receivables conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01, to give and receive notices and other communications, to make waivers or other agreements, to exercise all rights, powers and options, to bring Proceedings in the name of the Seller or otherwise and generally to do and receive anything that the Seller is or may be entitled to do or receive under or with respect to the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01. For purposes of such grant, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under the UCC. In the case of any Recharacterization, each of the Seller and the Issuer represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of Collections by the Seller to the Issuer hereunder or in connection herewith will have been (i) in payment of a debt incurred by the Seller in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Seller and the Issuer and (ii) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Seller and the Issuer.
In addition, on the Closing Date, the Seller shall cause the Reserve Account Initial Deposit to be deposited into the Reserve Account. Within two Business Days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall cause to be deposited into the Collection Account all collections (from whatever source) on or with respect to the assets conveyed pursuant to this Section 2.01 received by the Seller pursuant to Section 5.07 of the Purchase Agreement.

SECTION 2.02 Conveyance of Subsequent Receivables.
(a) Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.02(b) below, in consideration of the receipt by the Seller of the amount of any Incremental Funding pursuant to Article II of the Note Purchase Agreement in connection with such Subsequent Transfer, the Seller does hereby agree to sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse (except as provided in Section 2.06), pursuant to an assignment in substantially the form of Exhibit C (each, a “Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment”) delivered to the Issuer, all right, title and interest of the Seller in, to and under:
(i) the Retail Notes identified on the Schedule of Retail Notes to such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment and the Related Security with respect to those Retail Notes and
(ii) the rights, but not the obligations, acquired by the Seller under the Purchase Agreement and the Subsequent Transfer PA Assignment pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to those Subsequent Receivables.
It is the intention of the Seller and the Issuer that each transfer and assignment contemplated by this Section 2.02 shall constitute a sale of the related Subsequent Receivables and Related Security by the Seller to the Issuer and the beneficial interest in and title to the assets conveyed pursuant to the Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment shall not be part of the Seller’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law. The Seller intends to treat such transfer and assignment as a sale for tax and other purposes and as a secured financing for accounting purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any such transfer and assignment did not constitute such a sale or that such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable or that such beneficial interest is a part of the Seller’s estate, then (i) the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to the Issuer a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the assets conveyed pursuant to the related Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment, and the Seller hereby grants such security interest and (ii) the assets conveyed pursuant to such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment shall be deemed to include all rights, powers and options (but none of the obligations, if any) of the Seller under any agreement or instrument included in the assets conveyed pursuant to such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment, including the immediate and continuing right to claim for, collect, receive and give receipt for principal and interest payments in respect of the Subsequent Receivables included in the assets conveyed pursuant to such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment and all other monies payable under the Subsequent Receivables conveyed pursuant to such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment, to give and receive notices and other communications, to make waivers or other agreements, to exercise all rights, powers and options, to bring Proceedings in the name of the Seller or otherwise and generally to do and receive anything that the Seller is or may be entitled to do or receive under or with respect to the assets conveyed pursuant to such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment. For purposes of such grant, each such Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment, together with this Agreement, shall constitute a security agreement under the UCC. In the case of any Recharacterization, each of the Seller and the Issuer represents and warrants as
- 3 -
to itself that each remittance of Collections by the Seller to the Issuer hereunder or in connection herewith will have been (i) in payment of a debt incurred by the Seller in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Seller and the Issuer and (ii) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Seller and the Issuer.
Within two Business Days after each Subsequent Transfer Date, the Seller shall cause to be deposited into the Collection Account all collections (from whatever source) on or with respect to the assets conveyed pursuant to the related Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment received by the Seller pursuant to Section 5.07 of the Purchase Agreement.
(b) The Seller shall transfer to the Issuer Subsequent Receivables and the other property and rights related thereto described in Section 2.02(a) above only upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent on or prior to the related Subsequent Transfer Date:

(iii) the Seller shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Rating Agencies and the Agent a duly executed Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment, including the Schedule of Retail Notes included in such Subsequent Receivables (which schedules shall be deemed to supplement the existing Composite Schedule of Retail Notes in effect at such time);
(iv) the Seller shall, at its own expense, on or prior to each Subsequent Transfer Date, indicate in its computer files that the Subsequent Receivables conveyed on such date have been sold to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the related Subsequent Transfer PSA Assignment;

(e) any and all other documents that NFC keeps on file in accordance with its customary procedures relating to the individual Receivable, Obligor or Financed Vehicle.
SECTION 2.04 Acceptance by Issuer; Limitation on Transfer of International Purchase Obligations. The Issuer does hereby accept all property (and interests in property) conveyed by the Seller pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.02, and declares that the Issuer shall hold such property upon the trust set forth in the Trust Agreement for the benefit of Certificateholders, subject to the terms and conditions of the Trust Agreement, the Indenture, this Agreement and the other Basic Documents; provided, however, that the Issuer acknowledges and agrees that (a) the rights pursuant to the International Purchase Obligations are personal to NFC and only the proceeds of such rights have been assigned to the Issuer by NFRRC hereunder and by NFC to NFRRC under the Purchase Agreement, (b) neither the Issuer nor the Indenture Trustee is or is intended to be a third-party beneficiary of such rights, and (c) accordingly such rights are not exercisable by, enforceable by or for the benefit of, or preserved for the benefit of, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer hereby agrees and accepts the appointment and authorization of NFC as Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement (including each PSA Assignment), the Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the Trust Agreement constitute the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements.
SECTION 2.05 Representations and Warranties as to the Receivables. Pursuant to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.02(a)(ii) hereof, the Seller assigns to the Issuer all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Purchase Agreement. Such assigned right, title and interest includes the representations and warranties of NFC made to the Seller pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Purchase Agreement. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Issuer that the Seller has taken no action which would cause such representations and warranties to be false in any material respect as of the Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Receivables, and as of the
- 6 -
related Subsequent Transfer Date, in the case of Subsequent Receivables. The Seller further acknowledges that the Issuer is relying on the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement and of NFC under the Purchase Agreement in accepting the Receivables in trust and executing and delivering the Securities. The foregoing representation and warranty speaks as of the Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Receivables, and as of the related Subsequent Transfer Date, in the case of Subsequent Receivables, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.
SECTION 2.06 Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach of Warranty. Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer, either Trustee or the Agent of a breach of any of the representations and warranties in Section 3.01 of the Purchase Agreement (and, with respect to Section 3.01(j) of the Purchase Agreement, irrespective of any limitation regarding knowledge of NFC) or in Section 2.05 or Section 3.01 of this Agreement that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Financial Parties in any Receivable (it being understood that a breach of Section 3.01(v)(i) and Section 3.01(r)(i)(B) of the Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interest of the Financial Parties in such Receivables), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the others. As of the second Accounting Date following its discovery or its receipt of notice of breach (or, at the Seller’s election, the first Accounting Date following such discovery or notice), unless such breach shall have been cured in all material respects, in the event of a breach of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in Section 2.05 or Section 3.01, the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer on the related Distribution Date. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Issuer shall have any affirmative duty to conduct any investigation as to the occurrence of any event requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 2.06.
The repurchase price to be paid by any Warranty Purchaser shall be an amount equal to the Warranty Payment and shall be deposited by the Warranty Purchaser into the Collection Account on the Transfer Date for the related Distribution Date. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Warranty Purchaser to repurchase any Receivable as to which a breach has occurred and is continuing shall, if such repurchase obligations are fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against the Seller, the Servicer or NFC for such breach available to any Interested Party.
SECTION 2.07 Deposits into Reserve Account. Notwithstanding anything in the Basic Documents to the contrary, the Seller may from time to time deposit funds into the Reserve Account, which amounts shall then constitute Reserve Account Property.

The following representations and warranties speak as of the Closing Date in the case of the Initial Receivables and as of the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date in the case of the Subsequent Receivables, but in each case such representations and warranties shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of such Receivables to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

TERMINATION
SECTION 4.01 Servicer’s Optional Purchase of All Receivables. On any Distribution Date following the last day of any Monthly Period as of which the Aggregate Receivables Balance is 10% or less of the Aggregate Starting Receivables Balance, the Servicer shall have the option to purchase the assets of the Owner Trust Estate other than the Designated Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account. If the Servicer’s long term unsecured debt rating from Xxxxx’x is equal to or higher than “Baa3” at the time that it seeks to exercise such option, then to exercise such option, the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the aggregate Administrative Purchase Payments for the Receivables (including Liquidating Receivables), plus the appraised value of any such other property contained in the Owner Trust Estate (less the Liquidation Expenses to be incurred in connection with the recovery thereof), such value to be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, each Trustee and the Agent. If the Servicer’s long term unsecured debt rating from Xxxxx’x is less than “Baa3” at the time that it seeks to exercise such option, then to exercise such option, the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the appraised value of the Receivables (including Liquidating Receivables), plus the appraised value of any such other property contained in the Owner Trust Estate (less the Liquidation Expenses to be incurred in connection with the recovery thereof), such values to be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, each Trustee and the Agent; provided, in all events that such
- 10 -
amount (when added to any funds then on deposit in the Designated Accounts which are to be used to pay the Redemption Price) must be at least equal to the aggregate Redemption Price of all outstanding Notes together with all amounts due the Swap Counterparty (including in respect of any termination payments) through the Redemption Date. Thereupon, the Servicer shall succeed to all interests in and to the Owner Trust Estate (other than the Designated Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account).

PART II - RULES OF CONSTRUCTION
(A) Accounting Terms. As used in this Appendix or the Basic Documents, accounting terms which are not defined, and accounting terms partly defined, herein or therein shall have the respective meanings given to them under generally accepted accounting principles. To the extent that the definitions of accounting terms in this Appendix or the Basic Documents are inconsistent with the meanings of such terms under generally accepted accounting principles, the definitions contained in this Appendix or the Basic Documents will control.
(B) “Hereof,” etc. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Appendix or any Basic Document will refer to this Appendix or such Basic Document as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Appendix or such Basic Document; and Section, Schedule and Exhibit references contained in this Appendix or any Basic Document are references to Sections, Schedules and Exhibits in or to this Appendix or such Basic Document unless otherwise specified. The word “or” is not exclusive.
(C) Use of “related”. As used in this Appendix and the Basic Documents, with respect to any Distribution Date, the “related Determination Date,” the “related Monthly Period,” and the “related Record Date” will mean the Determination Date, the Monthly Period, and the Record Date, respectively, immediately preceding such Distribution Date. With respect to any Purchase Date, the “related Cutoff Date” will mean the Cutoff Date established for the closing of the purchase of receivables on that Purchase Date.
(D) Use of “outstanding” etc. Whenever the term “outstanding Notes,” “outstanding principal amount” and words of similar import are used in this Appendix or any Basic Document for purposes of determining whether the Noteholders of the requisite outstanding principal amount of the Notes have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder or under any Basic Document, Notes owned by the Issuer, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Seller or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing Persons (it being understood that the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity shall not be considered an Affiliate of any of the foregoing) shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Indenture Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Notes that the Indenture Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as “outstanding” if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee the pledgor’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Seller or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing Persons.
(E) Number and Gender. Each defined term used in this Appendix or the Basic Documents has a comparable meaning when used in its plural or singular form.
