Ratings Effect with respect to any Outstanding Class A(2003-4) Notes
and (ii) delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Note Rating
Agencies a Master Trust Tax Opinion and an Issuer Tax Opinion.
Section 2.03. Interest Payment.
(a) For each Interest Payment Date, the amount of
interest due with respect to the Class A(2003-4) Notes shall be an
amount equal to the product of (i)(A) a fraction, the numerator of
which is the actual number of days in the related Interest Period and

agent appointed to calculate LIBOR for each Interest Period (the
"Calculation Agent"). The Issuer hereby initially appoints the
Indenture Trustee as the Calculation Agent for purposes of determining
LIBOR for each Interest Period. The Calculation Agent may be removed
by the Issuer at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable or
unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Issuer, or if the
Calculation Agent fails to determine LIBOR for an Interest Period, the
Issuer shall promptly appoint a replacement Calculation Agent that does
not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the
Issuer or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its
duties, and the Issuer may not remove the Calculation Agent, without a
successor having been duly appointed.
(b) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation
Agent shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate for deposits in
United States dollars for a one-month period which appears on Telerate
Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. If such rate
does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the rate for that LIBOR
Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of the rates at
which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference
Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime
banks in the London interbank market for a one-month period. The
Calculation Agent shall request the principal London office of each of
the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least
two such quotations are provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination
Date shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two
quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR
Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by
major banks in New York City, selected by the Beneficiary, at
approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in
United States dollars to leading European banks for a one-month period.
(c) The Note Interest Rate applicable to the then current

telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at
(000) 000-0000 or such other telephone number as shall be designated by
the Indenture Trustee for such purpose by prior written notice by the
Indenture Trustee to each Noteholder from time to time.

Agent shall send to the Indenture Trustee and the Beneficiary, by
facsimile transmission, notification of LIBOR for the following
Interest Period.

Date, except that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date
in the name of the nominee of Cede & Co., payment shall be made by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by
such nominee.

shall deliver the Class A(2003-4) Notes when authenticated, each in
accordance with Section 303 of the Indenture.
Section 2.08. Targeted Deposits to the Accumulation Reserve
Account.
The deposit targeted to be made to the Accumulation Reserve
Account for any Monthly Period during the Accumulation Reserve Funding
Period will be an amount equal to the Required Accumulation Reserve
sub-Account Amount.
Section 2.09. Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding any other
express or implied agreement to the contrary, each of the Issuer and
the Class A(2003-4) Noteholders are hereby deemed to agree that they
and any recipient of the Prospectus Supplement dated April 16, 2003 and
the Prospectus dated April 15, 2003, each relating to the Class A(2003-
4) Notes (or their employees, representatives, or other agents), may
disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the
Tax Treatment and Tax Structure of any transaction relating to the
Issuer or the Class A(2003-4) Notes and all materials of any kind
(including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of
them relating to such Tax Treatment and Tax Structure. For purposes of
this Section 2.09, "Tax Treatment" refers to the purported or claimed
treatment of the Issuer and the Class A(2003-4) Notes under the
Internal Revenue Code, and "Tax Structure" refers to any fact that may
be relevant to understanding such Tax Treatment. It is hereby
confirmed that each of the foregoing have been deemed to so agree since
