Purchaser to the Trustee.
Section
2.3. Procedure
for Initial Issuance and for Increasing the Class A-1 Invested
Amount.
(a) Subject
to Section 2.3(b), (i) on the Effective Date, each Class A-1 Purchaser
shall purchase a Class A-1 Note in accordance with Section 2.1 and (ii) on any
Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to (but excluding) the
Class A-1 Increase Expiry Date such Class A-1 Purchaser hereby agrees that the
Class A-1 Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to such Class A-1 Purchaser may
be increased by an amount equal to its Class A-1 Commitment Percentage of the
Class A-1 Increase Amount (an “Class
A-1 Increase”), upon
the request of CRCF (each date on which an increase in the Class A-1 Invested
Amount occurs hereunder being herein referred to as the “Class
A-1 Increase Date”
applicable to such Class A-1 Increase); provided,
however, that
CRCF shall have given the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Trustee)
irrevocable written notice (effective upon receipt), by telecopy (receipt
confirmed), substantially in the form of Exhibit
B hereto,
of such request no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third
Business Day prior to the Effective Date or such Class A-1 Increase Date, as the
case may be. Such notice shall (x) notify the Administrative Agent of the
Effective Date or the Class A-1 Increase Date, as the case may be, and
(y) state the initial invested amount (the “Class
A-1 Initial Invested Amount”) or the
proposed amount of the increase in the Class A-1 Invested Amount (an
“Class
A-1 Increase Amount”), as
the case may be. The obligations of each Class A-1 Purchaser to fund a Class A-1
Increase Amount is several and no Class A-1 Purchaser shall be responsible for
the failure of another Class A-1 Purchaser to fund its Class A-1 Increase.
-27-
(b) No
Purchaser shall be required to make the initial purchase of a Series 2004-1 Note
on the Effective Date or, in the case of a Class A-1 Purchaser, to increase its
Class A-1 Purchaser Invested Amount on any Class A-1 Increase Date hereunder
unless:
(i) (1) in
the case of a Class A-1 Purchaser, such Class A-1 Purchaser’s Class A-1
Commitment Percentage of the Class A-1 Initial Invested Amount or such Class A-1
Increase Amount is equal to (A) $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000
in excess thereof (except as set forth in clause (iv)) or (B) if less, the
excess of the Class A-1 Maximum Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to such
Class A-1 Purchaser over the Class A-1 Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to
such Class A-1 Purchaser and (2) in the case of a Class A-2 Purchaser, the
initial purchase shall be equal to the such Class A-2 Purchaser’s Class A-2
Purchaser Invested Amount as of the Effective Date;
(ii) in the
case of a Class A-1 Purchaser, after giving effect to the Class A-1 Initial
Invested Amount or such Class A-1 Increase Amount, the Class A-1 Purchaser
Invested Amount with respect to such Class A-1 Purchaser would not exceed the
Class A-1 Maximum Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to such Class A-1
Purchaser;
(iii) after
giving effect thereto, no AESOP I Operating Lease Vehicle Deficiency would occur
and be continuing;
(iv) no
Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event would occur and be continuing
prior to or after giving effect thereto;
(v) all of
the representations and warranties made by each of CRCF, the Lessees, the
Lessors and the Administrator in the Base Indenture, this Supplement and the
Related Documents to which each is a party are true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the Effective Date or such Class A-1 Increase Date, as the
case may be, as if made on and as of such date (except to the extent such
representations and warranties are expressly made as of another date in which
case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all
material respects as of such other date); and
(vi) the Class
A-1 Increase Date shall occur prior to the Class A-1 Increase Expiry
Date;
(vii) all
conditions precedent to the making of any Loan under the applicable Loan
Agreements would be satisfied.
CRCF’s
acceptance of funds in connection with (x) the initial purchase of Series 2004-1
Notes on the Effective Date and (y) each Class A-1 Increase occurring on any
Class A-1 Increase Date shall constitute a representation and warranty by CRCF
to the Purchasers as of the Effective Date or, in the case of the Class A-1
Purchasers, such Class A-1 Increase Date (except to the extent such
representations and war-ran-ties are expressly made as of another date), as the
case may be, that all of the conditions con-tained in this Section 2.3(b) have
been satisfied.
(c) Upon
receipt of any notice required by Section 2.3(a) from CRCF, the
Administrative Agent shall forward (by telecopy or electronic messaging system)
a copy of such notice to each Class A-1 Purchaser, no later than 5:00 p.m.
(New York City time) on the day
-28-
received.
After receipt by any Class A-1 Purchaser of such notice from the Administrative
Agent, such Class A-1 Purchaser shall, so long as the condi-tions set forth in
Sections 2.3(a) and (b) are satisfied, pay in immediately available funds its
Class A-1 Commitment Percentage (or any portion thereof) of the amount of such
Class A-1 Increase on the related Class A-1 Increase Date to the Trustee for
deposit into the Series 2004-1 Collection Account.
(d) Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Class A-1 Purchaser
prior to the proposed date of any Class A-1 Increase that such Class A-1
Purchaser will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Class A-1
Purchaser’s Class A-1 Commitment Percentage of such Class A-1 Increase, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Class A-1 Purchaser has made its Class
A-1 Commitment Percentage of such Class A-1 Increase available on such date in
accordance with Section 2.3(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to CRCF a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Class A-1
Purchaser has not in fact made its Class A-1 Commitment Percentage of such Class
A-1 Increase available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Class
A-1 Purchaser and CRCF severally agree to pay the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest
thereon, for each day from an including the date such amount is made available
to CRCF to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i)
in the case of a payment to be made by such Class A-1 Purchaser, the greater for
the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the
case of a payment to be made by CRCF, the interest rate applicable to the
Alternate Base Rate Tranche. If CRCF and such Class A-1 Purchaser shall pay such
interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to CRCF the amount of such interest
paid by CRCF for such period. If such Class A-1 Purchaser pays its share of the
applicable Class A-1 Increase, then the amount so paid shall constitute such
Class A-1 Purchaser’s Class A-1 Commitment Percentage included in such Class A-1
Increase. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Class A-1 Purchaser or
CRCF with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.3(d) shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error.
(e) On the
Effective Date, each Class A-2 Purchaser shall, so long as the condi-tions to
the occurrence of the Effective Date have been satisfied, pay in immediately
available funds an amount equal to the amount specified on Schedule
1 next to
such Class A-2 Purchaser’s name to the Trustee for deposit into the Series
2004-1 Collection Account.
Section
2.4. Procedure
for Decreasing the Series 2004-1 Invested Amount. (a) Class
A-1 Invested Amount. On any
Distribution Date prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, upon the
written request of CRCF or the Administrator on behalf of CRCF, the Class A-1
Invested Amount may be reduced (a “Class
A-1 Decrease”) by the
Trustee’s withdrawing from the Series 2004-1 Excess Collection Account,
depositing into the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account and dis-trib-uting to the
Administrative Agent funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1 Excess Collection
Account on such day in accordance with Section 3.5(b) in an amount not to exceed
the amount of such funds on deposit on such day; provided that
CRCF shall have given the Adminis-trative Agent (with a copy to the Trustee)
irrevocable written notice (effective upon receipt) of the amount of such Class
A-1 Decrease prior to 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business
Day prior to such Class A-1 Decrease; provided, that
any such Class A-1 Decrease shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 and
integral multiples of $100,000
-29-
in excess
thereof. Upon each Class A-1 Decrease, the Administrative Agent shall indicate
in its records such Class A-1 Decrease and the Class A-1 Purchaser Invested
Amount outstanding with respect to each Class A-1 Purchaser after giving effect
to such Class A-1 Decrease.
(b) Class
A-2 Invested Amount.On any
Distribution Date prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, upon the
written request of CRCF or the Administrator on behalf of CRCF, the Class A-2
Invested Amount may be reduced (a “Class
A-2 Decrease”) by the
Trustee’s withdrawing from the Series 2004-1 Excess Collection Account,
depositing into the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account and dis-trib-uting to the
Administrative Agent funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1 Excess Collection
Account on such day in accordance with Section 3.5(b) in an amount not to exceed
the amount of such funds on deposit on such day; provided that
CRCF shall have given the Adminis-trative Agent (with a copy to the Trustee)
irrevocable written notice (effective upon receipt) of the amount of such Class
A-2 Decrease prior to 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business
Day prior to such Class A-2 Decrease; provided, that
any such Class A-2 Decrease shall be in an amount equal to $10,000,000 and
integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. Upon each Class A-2 Decrease,
the Administrative Agent shall indicate in its records such Class A-2 Decrease
and the Class A-2 Purchaser Invested Amount outstanding with respect to each
Class A-2 Purchaser after giving effect to such Class A-2 Decrease. Once
reduced, the Class A-2 Purchaser Invested Amounts may not be subsequently
increased.
Section
2.5. Reductions
of the Class A-1 Maximum
Invested Amount.
(a)
On any Business Day prior to the Class A-1 Increase Expiry Date, CRCF may, upon
two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent
(effec-tive upon receipt) (with copies to the Administrator and the Trustee)
reduce the Class A-1 Maximum Invested Amount in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or
a whole multi-ple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that no
such termination or reduction shall be per-mitted if, after giving effect
thereto and to any reduction in the Class A-1 Invested Amount on such date, (x)
the Class A-1 Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to any Class A-1 Purchaser
would exceed the Class A-1 Maximum Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to
such Class A-1 Purchaser then in effect or (y) the Class A-1 Invested Amount
would exceed the Class A-1 Maximum Invested Amount. Any reduc-tion in the Class
A-1 Maximum Invested Amount shall be made on a pro
rata basis to
the Class A-1 Maximum Purchaser Invested Amounts with respect to the Class A-1
Purchasers, based on the Class A-1 Maximum Purchaser Invested Amount with
respect to each Class A-1 Purchaser. Once reduced, the Class A-1 Maximum
Purchaser Invested Amounts may not be subsequently reinstated without each such
Class A-1 Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall be granted or
not in the sole discretion of such Class A-1 Purchaser.
Section
2.6. Interest;
Fees. (a) Interest
shall be payable on the Series 2004-1 Notes on each Distribution Date pursuant
to Section 3.3. Unless otherwise provided for herein or otherwise specified
in writing by CRCF, any Class A-1 Increase Amount shall be allocated to an
Alternate Base Rate Tranche and shall be reallocated to a Class A-1 Eurodollar
Tranche on the first Distribution Date following the applicable Class A-1
Increase Date. Unless otherwise provided for herein or otherwise specified in
writing by CRCF, the proceeds of the Class A-2 Notes shall be allocated to a
Class A-2 Eurodollar Tranche.
-30-
(b) On not
less than three Business Days notice, the Administrator may, on CRCF’s behalf,
convert any Eurodollar Tranche into any Alternate Base Rate Tranche on the last
day of the Eurodollar Period for such Eurodollar Tranche. On not less than three
Business Days notice, the Administrator may, on CRCF’s behalf, convert on any
Business Day any Alternative Base Rate Tranche to a Eurodollar
Tranche.
(c) CRCF
shall pay with funds available pursuant to Section 3.3(a) to the Administra-tive
Agent, for the account of each Class A-1 Purchaser, on each Distribution Date, a
commitment fee with respect to the Series 2004-1 Interest Period ending on the
day preceding such Distribution Date (the “Commitment
Fee”) during
the period from the Effective Date to and including the Class A-1 Increase
Expiry Date at the Commitment Fee Rate of the average daily Class A-1 Maximum
Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to such Class A-1 Purchaser during such
Series 2004-1 Interest Period less the sum of the aver-age daily Class A-1
Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to such Class A-1 Purchaser. The
Commitment Fees shall be payable monthly in arrears on each Distribution Date.
(d) Calculations
of per annum rates under this Supplement shall be made on the basis of a 360-
(or 365-/366- in the case of interest on an Alternate Base Rate Tranche) day
year. Calculations of Commitment Fees shall be made on the basis of a 360-day
year. Each determination of the Adjusted LIBO Rate by the Administrative Agent
shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the parties hereto in the absence
of manifest error.
(e) In no
event shall the interest charged with respect to a Series 2004-1 Note exceed the
maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law. If at any time the interest rate
charged with respect to the Series 2004-1 Notes exceeds the maximum rate
permitted by Applicable Law, the rate of interest to accrue pursuant to this
Supplement and such Series 2004-1 Note shall be limited to the maximum rate
permitted by Applicable Law, but any subsequent reductions in LIBO Rate shall
not reduce the interest to accrue on such Series 2004-1 Note below the maximum
amount permitted by Applicable Law until the total amount of interest accrued on
such Series 2004-1 Note equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if
a varying rate per annum equal to the interest rate had at all times been in
effect. If the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Series 2004-1
Note under the foregoing provisions is less than the total amount of interest
that would have accrued if the interest rate had at all times been in effect,
CRCF agrees to pay to the Series 2004-1 Noteholders an amount equal to the
difference between (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest that would
have accrued if the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law had at all times
been in effect, or (ii) the amount of interest that would have accrued if the
Adjusted LIBO Rate had at all times been in effect, and (b) the amount of
interest accrued in accordance with the other provisions of this
Supplement.
Section
2.7. Indemnification
by CRCF.
CRCF
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee, the Administrative Agent,
each Purchaser and each of their respective officers, directors, agents and
employees (each, a “Company
indemnified person”) from
and against any loss, liabil-ity, expense, damage or injury suffered or
sustained by (a “Claim”) such
Company indem-nified person by reason of (i) any acts, omissions or alleged acts
or omissions arising out of, or relating to, activities of CRCF pursuant to the
Indenture or the other Related Documents to which it is a party, (ii) a breach
of any representation or warranty made or deemed made by CRCF (or any of its
officers) in the Indenture or other Related Document or (iii) a
-31-
failure
by CRCF to comply with any applicable law or regulation or to perform its
covenants, agreements, duties or obliga-tions required to be performed or
observed by it in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture or the other
Related Documents, including, but not limited to, any judgment, award,
settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reason-able costs or expenses
incurred in connec-tion with the defense of any actual or threatened action,
proceeding or claim, except to the extent such loss, liability, expense, damage
or injury resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of
such Company indemnified person or its officers, directors, agents, princi-pals,
employees or employers or includes any Excluded Taxes; provided that any
payments made by CRCF pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be made solely from
funds available pursuant to Section 3.3(e), shall be non-recourse other than
with respect to such funds, and shall not constitute a claim against CRCF to the
extent that such funds are insufficient to make such payment.

lesser of (x) the unreimbursed amount of such Series 2004-1 Letter of

Disbursement, of the amount of the Series 2004-1 Past Due Rent Payment remaining
after Payment pursuant to clause (i) above;
(iii) if the
occurrence of such Series 2004-1 Lease Payment Deficit resulted in a withdrawal
being made from the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account, deposit in the Series
2004-1 Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the amount
of the Series 2004-1 Past Due Rent Payment remaining after any payment pursuant

Section
3.6. Administrator’s
Failure to Instruct the Trustee to Make a Deposit or Payment. If the
Administrator fails to give notice or instructions to make (i) any payment from
or deposit into the Collection Account (including the administrative subaccounts
therein established for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each
Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty), the Series 2004-1 Reserve
Account or the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account or (ii) drawn upon the
Series 2004-1 Letters of Credit, required to be given by the Adminis-trator, at
the time speci-fied in the Administration Agreement or any other Related
Document (including appli-cable grace periods), the Trustee shall make such
payment or deposit into or from the Collection Account (including the
administrative subaccounts therein established for the benefit of the Series
2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty), the
Series 2004-1 Reserve Account or the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account, as
applicable, without such notice or instruction from the Administrator,
provided that the
Adminis-tra-tor, upon request of the Trustee or, with respect to the Series
2004-1 Reserve Account, or the Series Cash Collateral Account or Series 2004-1
Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent upon request of the Trustee,
promptly provides the Trustee with all information necessary to allow the
Trustee to make such payment, deposit or draw, as the case may be. When any
payment or deposit hereunder or under any other Related Document is required to
be made by the Trustee or the Paying Agent at or prior to a specified time, the
Administrator shall deliver any applicable written instructions with respect
thereto reasonably in advance of such specified time.
Section
3.7. Series
2004-1 Reserve Account.
(a) Establishment
of Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. CRCF
shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge
Counterparty, or cause to be established and maintained, an account (the
“Series
2004-1 Reserve Account”),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1
Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty. The Series 2004-1 Reserve Account shall be
maintained (i) with a Qualified Institution, or (ii) as a segre-gated trust
account with the corporate trust depart-ment of a depository institution or
trust com-pany having corporate trust powers and acting as trustee for funds
deposited in the Series 2004-1 Reserve 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 com-pany shall be reduced to below “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s or
“Baa3” by Xxxxx’x, then CRCF shall, within 30 days of such reduction, establish
a new Series 2004-1 Reserve Account with a new Qualified Institution. If the
Series 2004-1 Reserve Account is not maintained in accordance with the pre-vious
sentence, CRCF shall establish a new Series 2004-1 Reserve Account, within ten
(10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact, which complies with
such sentence, and shall instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer all cash
and investments from the non-qualifying Series 2004-1 Reserve Account into the
new Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. Initially, the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account
will be established with The Bank of New York.
-46-
(b) Administration
of the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. The
Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the Series 2004-1 Reserve
Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1 Reserve 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 2004-1 Reserve Account is held with
the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such Distribution Date and
such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such Distribution
Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series 2004-1
Reserve 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 (as defined in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) 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 CRCF, take such action as is
required to maintain the Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted
Investments credited to the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. CRCF 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
purchase price of such Permitted Investments. In the absence of written
investment instructions hereunder, funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1 Reserve
Account shall remain uninvested.
(c) Earnings
from Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. All
interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on
deposit in the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account shall be deemed to be on deposit
therein and available for distribution.
(d) Series
2004-1 Reserve Account Constitutes Additional Collateral for Series 2004-1
Notes. In
order to secure and provide for the repayment and payment of the CRCF
Obligations with respect to the Series 2004-1 Notes, CRCF hereby grants a
security interest in and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, all of CRCF’s right, title and interest
in and to the following (whether now or hereafter existing or acquired): (i) the
Series 2004-1 Reserve Account, includ-ing any security entitlement thereto; (ii)
all funds on deposit therein from time to time; (iii) all certificates and
instruments, if any, representing or evidencing any or all of the Series 2004-1
Reserve Account or the funds on deposit therein from time to time; (iv) all
investments made at any time and from time to time with monies in the Series
2004-1 Reserve Account, whether consti-tuting securities, instruments, general
intangibles, investment property, financial assets or other property; (v) all
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 2004-1 Reserve 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
2004-1 Reserve Account Collateral”). The
Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in and to all funds on
deposit from time to time in the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account and in all
proceeds thereof, and shall be the only person authorized to originate
entitle-ment orders in respect of the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. The Series
2004-1 Reserve Account Collateral shall be under the sole dominion and

(e) Preference
Amount Withdrawals from the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account or the Series 2004-1
Cash Collateral Account. If a
Purchaser notifies the Trustee in writing of the existence of a Preference
Amount, then, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the
next succeeding sentence, on the Business Day on which those conditions are
first satisfied, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Series 2004-1 Cash
Collateral Account and pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to such Preference
Amount. Prior to any withdrawal from the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account
pursuant to this Section 3.7(e), the Trustee shall have received (i) a
certified copy of the order requiring the return of such Preference Amount; (ii)
an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Trustee that such order is final and
not subject to appeal; and (iii) a release as to any claim against CRCF by the
Purchaser for any amount paid in respect of such Preference Amount. On the
Business Day after Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date, the Trustee
shall transfer the amount on deposit in the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account to the
Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account.
(f) Series
2004-1 Reserve Account Surplus. In the
event that the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account Surplus on any Distribution Date on
which no Amortization Event is continuing, after giving effect to all
withdrawals from the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account, is greater than zero, the
Trustee, acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrator
pursuant to the Administration Agreement, shall withdraw from the Series 2004-1
Reserve Account an amount equal to the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account Surplus and
shall pay such amount to CRCF; provided that if
the Distribution Date is the Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date and
the Series 2004-1 Demand Note Payment Amount is greater than zero, the Trustee
shall transfer the Series 2004-1 Available Reserve Account Amount to the Series
2004-1 Cash Collateral Account.
(g) Termination
of Series 2004-1 Reserve Account. Upon
the termination of this Supplement pursuant to Section 10.15, the Trustee,
acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrator, after
the prior payment of all amounts owing to the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and
payable from the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account as provided herein, shall
withdraw from the Series 2004-1 Reserve Account all amounts on deposit therein
for payment to CRCF.
Section
3.8. Series
2004-1 Letters of Credit and Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral
Account.
(a) Series
2004-1 Letters of Credit and Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account Constitute
Additional Collateral for Series 2004-1 Notes. In
order to secure and provide for the repayment and payment of CRCF’s obligations
with respect to the Series 2004-1 Notes, CRCF hereby grants a security interest
in and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to the
-48-
Trustee,
for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest
Rate Hedge Counterparty, all of CRCF’s right, title and interest in and to the
following (whether now or hereafter existing or acquired): (i) each Series
2004-1 Letter of Credit; (ii) the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account,
including any security entitle-ment thereto; (iii) all funds on deposit in
the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account from time to time; (iv) all
certificates and instruments, if any, representing or evidencing any or all of
the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account or the funds on deposit therein from
time to time; (v) all investments made at any time and from time to time
with monies in the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account, whether constituting
securities, instruments, general intangibles, investment property, financial
assets or other property; (vi) all 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 2004-1 Cash Collateral
Account, the funds on deposit therein from time to time or the investments made
with such funds; and (vii) all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing,
including, without limitation, cash (the items in the foregoing clauses (ii)
through (vii) are referred to, collectively, as the “Series
2004-1 Cash Collateral Account Collateral”). The
Trustee shall, for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, possess all right, title and interest
in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral
Account and in all
proceeds thereof, and shall be the only person authorized to originate
entitlement orders in respect
of the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account. The Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral
Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the
benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate
Hedge Counterparty. The Series 2004-1 Agent hereby agrees (i) to act as the
securities intermediary (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the New York
UCC) with respect to the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account; (ii) that its
jurisdiction as securities intermediary is New York; (iii) that each item of

and (iv) to comply with any entitlement order (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8)
of the New York UCC) issued by the Trustee without further consent by CRCF
or any other entitlement holder.
(b) Series

prior to the date which is ten (10) days prior to the then scheduled Series
2004-1 Letter of Credit Expiration Date with respect to any Series 2004-1 Letter
of Credit, excluding the amount available to be drawn under such Series 2004-1
Letter of Credit but taking into account each substitute Series 2004-1 Letter of
Credit which has been obtained from a Series 2004-1 Eligible Letter of Credit
Provider and is in full force and effect on such date, the Series 2004-1
Enhancement Amount would be equal to or more than the Series 2004-1 Required
Enhancement Amount, then the Administrator shall notify the Trustee in writing
no later than two Business Days prior to such Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit

days prior to the then scheduled Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Expiration Date
with respect to any Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit, excluding the amount
available to be drawn under such Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit but taking into
account a substitute Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit which has been obtained from
a Series 2004-1 Eligible Letter of Credit Provider and is in full force and
effect on such date, the Series 2004-1 Enhancement Amount would be less than the

such expiring Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit but taking into account any
substitute Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit which has been obtained from a Series
2004-1 Eligible Letter of Credit Provider and is in full force and effect on
such date, and (y) the amount available to be drawn on such expiring Series
2004-1 Letter of Credit on such date. Upon receipt of such notice by the Trustee

Account.
If the
Trustee does not receive the notice from the Administrator described in the

the long-term senior unsecured debt credit rating of any Series 2004-1 Letter of
Credit Provider has fallen below “A+” as determined by Standard & Poor’s or
“A1” as determined by Xxxxx’x or (ii) the short-term senior unsecured debt
credit rating of any Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Provider has fallen below
“A-1” as determined by Standard & Poor’s or “P-1” as determined by Xxxxx’x.
At such time the Administrator or the Administrative Agent shall also notify the
Trustee of (i) the excess, if any, of the Series 2004-1 Required
Enhancement Amount over the Series 2004-1 Enhancement Amount, excluding the
available amount under the Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit issued by such Series
2004-1 Letter of Credit Provider, on such date and (ii) the amount

such Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit of the amount of such draw on the Series
2004-1 Letters of Credit.
-50-
(e) Establishment
of Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account. On or
prior to the date of any drawing under a Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit pursuant
to Section 3.8(b) or (c) above, CRCF shall establish and maintain in the
name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each
Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, or cause to be estab-lished and
maintained, an account (the “Series
2004-1 Cash Collateral Account”),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1
Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty. The Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account
shall be maintained (i) with a Qualified Institution, or (ii) as a
segre-gated trust account with the corporate trust depart-ment of a depository
institution or trust company having corporate trust powers and act-ing as
trustee for funds deposited in the Series 2004-1 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
Standard & Poor’s or “Baa3” by Xxxxx’x, then CRCF shall, within 30 days of
such reduction, establish a new Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account with a new
Qualified Institution or a new segre-gated 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 2004-1 Cash
Collateral Account. If a new Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account is
established, CRCF shall instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer all cash and
invest-ments from the non-qualifying Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account into
the new Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account.
(f) Administration
of the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account. CRCF
may instruct (by standing instructions or otherwise) the institution maintaining
the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account to invest funds on deposit in the
Series 2004-1 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 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account is
held with the Paying 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 2004-1 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 (as defined in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) 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 CRCF, take such action as is required to
maintain the Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted Investments credited
to the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account. CRCF 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
purchase price of such Permitted Investments. In the absence of written
investment instructions hereunder, funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1 Cash
Collateral Account shall remain uninvested.
(g) Earnings
from Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account. All
interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on
deposit in the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account shall be deemed to be on
deposit therein and available for distribution.
-51-
(h) Series
2004-1 Cash Collateral Account Surplus. In the
event that the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account Surplus on any Distribution
Date (or, after the Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date, on any
date) is greater than zero, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the written
instructions of the Administrator, shall with-draw from the Series 2004-1 Cash
Collateral Account an amount equal to the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account
Surplus and shall pay such amount: first, to the Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit
Providers to the extent of any unreimbursed drawings under the related Series
0000-0 Xxxxxxxxxxxxx Agreement, for application in accordance with the
provisions of the related Series 0000-0 Xxxxxxxxxxxxx Agreement, and, second, to
CRCF any remaining amount.
(i) Termination
of Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account. Upon
the termina-tion of this Supplement in accordance with its terms, the Trustee,
acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrator, after
the prior payment of all amounts owing to the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and
payable from the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account as provided herein, shall
withdraw from the Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Account all amounts on deposit
therein (to the extent not withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.8(h) above) and

succeeding the Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date, the
Administrator shall determine the Series 2004-1 Demand Note Payment Amount as of
the Series 2004-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date. If the Series 2004-1 Demand
Note Payment Amount is greater than zero, then the Administrator shall instruct

receipt of any such notice by the Trustee on or prior to 11:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on a Business Day, the Trustee shall, by 12:00 noon
(New York City time) on such Business Day draw an amount equal to the

the Trustee shall draw an amount equal to the product of (a) 100% minus the
Series 2004-1 Cash Collateral Percentage and (b) the lesser of the amounts
referred to in clause (i) or (ii) on such Business Day on the Series 2004-1
Letters of Credit as calculated by the Administrator and provided in writing to

Section
3.9. Series
2004-1 Distribution Account.
(a) Establishment
of Series 2004-1 Distribu-tion Account. CRCF shall establish and maintain in the
name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each
Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, or cause to be established and
maintained, an account (the “Series 2004-1 Distribution Account”), bearing a
designa-tion clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for
the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest
Rate Hedge Counterparty. The Series 2004-1 Distribution Account shall be
maintained (i) with a
-52-
Qualified
Institu-tion, 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 2004-1
Distri-bution Account; provided that, if at any time such Quali-fied Institution
is no longer a Qualified Institution or the credit rating of any securities
issued by such depos-itory institution or trust company shall be reduced to
below “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s or “Baa3” by Xxxxx’x, then CRCF shall,
within 30 days of such reduction, establish a new Series 2004-1 Distribution
Account with a new Qualified Institu-tion. If the Series 2004-1 Distribution
Account is not maintained in accordance with the previous sen-tence, CRCF shall
establish a new Series 2004-1 Distribution Account, within ten (10) Business
Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact, which complies with such sentence,
and shall instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer all cash and investments
from the non-qualify-ing Series 2004-1 Distribution Account into the new
Series 2004-1 Distribution Account. Initially, the Series 2004-1 Distribu-tion
Account will be established with The Bank of New York.
(b) Administration
of the Series 2004-1 Dis-tribution Account. The
Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the Series 2004-1
Distribution Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1
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 2004-1 Distribution Account is held
with the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such Distribution Date
and such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such
Distribution Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series
2004-1 Distribution 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 (as defined in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) 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 CRCF, take such action as is
required to maintain the Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted
Investments credited to the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account. CRCF 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
purchase price of such Permitted Investments. In the absence of written
investment instructions hereunder, funds on deposit in the Series 2004-1
Distribution Account shall remain uninvested.
(c) Earnings
from Series 2004-1 Distribution Account. All
interest and earn-ings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on
deposit in the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account shall be deemed to be on
deposit and available for distribution.
(d) Series
2004-1 Distribution Account Constitutes Additional Collateral for Series 2004-1
Notes. In
order to secure and provide for the repayment and payment of the CRCF
Obligations with respect to the Series 2004-1 Notes, CRCF hereby grants a
security interest in and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, all of CRCF’s right, title and interest
in and to the following (whether now or hereafter existing or acquired): (i) the
Series 2004-1 Distri-bution Account, including any security entitlement thereto;
(ii) all
-53-
funds on
deposit therein from time to time; (iii) all certificates and instruments,
if any, representing or evidencing any or all of the Series 2004-1 Distribution
Account or the funds on deposit therein from time to time; (iv) all investments
made at any time and from time to time with monies in the Series 2004-1
Distribution Account, whether constituting securities, instruments, general
intangibles, invest-ment property, financial assets or other property; (v) all
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 2004-1 Distribution Account, the funds on deposit therein from time
to time or the invest-ments made with such funds; and (vi) all proceeds of any
and all of the fore-going, including, without limitation, cash (the items in the
foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) are referred to, collec-tively, as the
“Series
2004-1 Distribution Account Collateral”). The
Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from
time to time in the Series 2004-1 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 2004-1 Distribution Account. The
Series 2004-1 Distribution Account Collateral shall be under the sole dominion
and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and
each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty. The Series 2004-1 Agent
hereby agrees (i) to act as the securities intermediary (as defined in Section
8-102(a)(14) of the New York UCC) with respect to the Series 2004-1
Distribution Account; (ii) that its jurisdiction as securities intermediary
is New York, (iii) that each item of property (whether investment property,
financial asset, security, instrument or cash) credited to the Series 2004-1
Distribution Account shall be treated as a financial asset (as defined in
Section 8-102(a)(9) of the New York UCC) and (iv) to comply with any
entitlement order (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the New York UCC)
issued by the Trustee without further consent by CRCF or any other entitlement
holder.
Section
3.10. Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Xxxxxx.
(a) CRCF may
from time to time enter into one or more interest rate swaps or interest rate
caps (each a “Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge”) with a
Qualified Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty in order to hedge its floating rate
interest rate exposure. Each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge shall limit the
right of the related Qualified Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty to receive
payments from CRCF only to the extent of funds available for such purpose in
accordance with the provisions of this Supplement.
(b) To secure
payment of all CRCF Obligations with respect to the Series 2004-1 Notes,
CRCF grants a security interest in, and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and
sets over to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2004-1
Noteholders, all of CRCF’s right, title and interest in the Series 2004-1 Interest
Rate Xxxxxx and all proceeds thereof (the “Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Collateral”). CRCF
shall require all Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Proceeds to be paid to,
and the Trustee shall allocate all Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Proceeds
to, the Series 2004-1 Accrued Interest Account of the Series 2004-1
Collection Account.
(c) If at any
time the Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty to a Series 2004-1
Interest Rate Hedge is no longer a Qualified Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty,
then CRCF shall take one of the following actions within 30 days from the date
it ceases to be a Qualified Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty: (i) cause the
Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty to post collateral in an amount
and in a manner acceptable to the Administrative
-54-
Agent;
(ii) cause the Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty to provide at the
Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty’s cost a guarantee of its
obligations under each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge to which it is a party
from a person who would qualify as a Qualified Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty
or (iii) with the consent of the Administrative Agent, terminate the Series
2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge with such Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge
Counterparty.
(d) If at any
time (i) a Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty fails to make a
payment on a Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge or (ii) a Series 2004-1 Interest
Rate Hedge Counterparty is no longer a Qualified Interest Rate Hedge
Counterparty and fails to take one of the actions within the timeframe set forth
in Section 3.10(c) hereof, CRCF shall, at the Administrative Agent’s direction,
terminate such Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge.
(e) CRCF
shall, promptly following the execution of a Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge,
deliver to the Trustee such Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge.
Section
3.11. Series
2004-1 Demand Notes Constitute Additional Collateral for Series 2004-1
Notes. In
order to secure and provide for the repayment and payment of the obligations
with respect to the Series 2004-1 Notes, CRCF hereby grants a security interest

representing or evidencing the Series 2004-1 Demand Notes; and (iii) all
proceeds of any and all of the foregoing, including, without limitation, cash.
On the date hereof, CRCF shall deliver to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest Rate Hedge
Counterparty, each Series 2004-1 Demand Note, endorsed in blank. The Trustee,
for the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest
Rate Hedge Counterparty, shall be the only Person authorized to make a demand
for payments on the Series 2004-1 Demand Notes.

Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary in the Indenture or the Related Docu-ments, upon
the Trustee’s receipt of notice from any Lessee, any Borrower or CRCF (i) to the
effect that a Manufacturer Program is no longer an Eligible Manufacturer Program
and that, as a result, either (a) the Series 2004-1 Maximum Non-Program Vehi-cle
Amount is or will be exceeded or (b) an excess will exist under clause (y) of
paragraph (ii) of the definition of Series 2004-1 Required Enhancement Amount or
(ii) that the Les-sees, the Borrowers and CRCF have determined to in-crease any
Series 2004-1 Maximum Amount or the percentage set forth in clause (y) of any of
paragraphs (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vii) or (viii) of the definition of Series
2004-1 Required Enhancement Amount, (such notice, a “Waiver
Request”), each
Series 2004-1 Note-holder may, at its option, waive the Series 2004-1 Maximum
Non-Program Vehicle Amount, any other Series 2004-1 Maximum Amount or any
increase in the Series 2004-1 Required Enhancement Amount based upon clause (y)
of any of paragraphs (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vii) or (viii) of the definition
of the Series 2004-1 Required Enhancement Amount (collectively, a “Waivable
Amount”) if (i)
no Amortization Event exists, (ii) the Requisite Noteholders consent to such
waiver and (iii) 60 days’ prior written notice of such proposed waiver is
provided to the Administrative Agent 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 2004-1 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 Trust-ee in the
Series 2004-1 Collection Account for ratable distribution as described
below.
-57-
Within
ten (10) Business Days after the Trustee receives a Waiver Request, the Trustee
shall furnish notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be
accompanied by a form of consent (each a “Consent”) in the
form of Exhibit C hereto
by which the Series 2004-1 Noteholders may, on or before the Consent Period
Expiration Date, consent to waiver of the applicable Waivable Amount. Upon
receipt of notice of a Waiver Request, the Administrative Agent shall forward a
copy of such request together with the Consent to each Purchaser. If the Trustee
receives the Consents from the Requisite Noteholders agreeing to waiver of the
applicable Waivable Amount within forty-five (45) days after the Trustee
notifies the Administrative Agent of a Waiver Request (the day on which such
forty-five (45) day period expires, the “Consent
Period Expiration Date”), (i)
the applicable Waivable Amount shall be deemed waived by the consenting Series
2004-1 Noteholders, (ii) the Trus-tee 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
Purchaser 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.

Trustee receives Consents from the Requisite Noteholders on or before the
Consent Period Expiration Date, then on the immediately following Dis-tribution

pay the Designated Amounts to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the
non-consenting Purchasers. Upon the receipt of funds from the Trustee pursuant
to this Article V, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Designated Amounts as
follows:
(i) to each
non-consenting Purchaser, such Purchaser’s pro rata share based on the Purchaser
Invested Amount with respect to such Purchaser relative to the Purchaser
Invested Amount with respect to all non-consenting Purchasers of the Designated
Amounts up to the amount required to reduce to zero the Purchaser Invested
Amounts with respect to all non-consenting Purchasers; and
(ii) any
remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2004-1 Excess Collection
Account.
If the
amount distributed pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph is not
sufficient to reduce the Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to each
non-consenting Purchaser to zero on the date specified therein, then on each day
following such Dis-tribution Date, the Admin-istrator will allocate to the
Series 2004-1 Collection Account on a daily basis all Designated Amounts
collected on such day. On each fol-lowing Distribution Date, the Trustee will
withdraw such Designated Amounts from the Series 2004-1 Collection Account and
deposit the same in the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account for distribution to
the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the non-consenting Purchasers. Upon
the receipt of funds from the Trustee pursuant to this Article V, the
Administrative Agent shall pay the Designated Amounts as follows:
(a) to each
non-consenting Purchaser, such Purchaser’s pro rata share based on the Purchaser
Invested Amount with respect to such Purchaser relative to the Purchaser
Invested Amount with respect to all non-consenting Purchasers of the Designated
Amounts in the Series 2004-1 Collection Account as of the applicable
-58-
Determination
Date up to the amount required to reduce to zero the Purchaser Invested Amounts
with respect to all non-consenting Purchasers; and
(b) any
remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2004-1 Excess Collection
Account.
If the
Requisite Noteholders do not timely consent to such waiver, the Desig-nated
Amounts will be re-allocated to the Series 2004-1 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 2004-1 Amor-tization Period shall commence after receipt
by the Trustee of a Waiver Request, all such Designated Amounts will thereafter
be considered Principal Collections allo-cated to the Series 2004-1
Noteholders.

against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by,
any Purchaser (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted
LIBO Rate); or
(ii) impose on
any Purchaser (or its holding company) or the London interbank market any other
condition affecting the Indenture or the Related Documents or the funding of
Eurodollar Tranches by such Purchaser;
and the
result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Purchaser
of mak-ing, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Tranches (or
maintaining its obliga-tion to do so) or to reduce any amount received or
receivable by such Purchaser hereunder or in connection herewith (whether
principal, interest or otherwise), then CRCF will pay to such Purchaser such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
-61-
(b) If any
Purchaser determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Purchaser’s
capital or the capital of any corporation controlling such Purchaser as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such
Purchaser or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law
(taking into consideration such Purchaser’s or such corporation’s policies with
respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, CRCF shall pay to such
Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser
for any such reduction suffered.
(c) A
certificate of a Purchaser setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to
compensate such Purchaser as specified in subsections (a) and (b) of this
Section 7.1 shall be delivered to CRCF (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any payments made by CRCF
pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be made solely from funds available in the
Series 2004-1 Distribution Account for the payment of Article VII Costs, shall
be non-recourse other than with respect to such funds, and shall not constitute
a claim against CRCF to the extent that insufficient funds exist to make such
payment. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this
Supplement and the Base Indenture and the payment of all amounts payable
hereunder and thereunder.
(d) Failure
or delay on the part of a Purchaser to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 7.1 shall not constitute a waiver of such Purchaser’s right to
demand such compensation; provided that
CRCF shall not be required to compensate any Purchaser pursuant to this
Section 7.1 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270
days prior to the date that such Purchaser notifies CRCF of the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Purchaser’s
intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reduc-tions is retroactive, then
the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof.
Section
7.2. Taxes. (a) Any and
all payments by or on account of any obligation of CRCF here-under shall be made
free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes; provided that if
CRCF shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such
payments, then (i) subject to Section 7.2(c) below, the sum payable shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 7.2)
the recipient receives an amount equal to the sum that it would have received
had no such deductions been made, (ii) CRCF shall make such deduc-tions and
(iii) CRCF shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b) In
addition, CRCF shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law.
(c) CRCF
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser within the later of
10 days after written demand therefor and the Distribution Date next following
such demand for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by
the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser on or with respect to any payment by
or on account of any obligation of CRCF hereunder or under the Indenture
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other
-62-
Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section 7.2) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority; provided that no
Person shall be indemnified pursuant to this Section 7.2(c) or entitled to
receive additional amounts under the proviso of Section 7.2(a) to the extent
that the reason for such indemnification results from the failure by such Person
to comply with the provisions of Section 7.2(e) or (g). A certificate as to the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to CRCF by the Administrative
Agent or any Purchaser shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any payments
made by CRCF pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be made solely from funds
available in the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account for the payment of Article
VII Costs, shall be non-recourse other than with respect to such funds, and
shall not constitute a claim against CRCF to the extent that insufficient funds
exist to make such payment. The agreements in this Section shall survive the
termination of this Supplement and the Base Indenture and the payment of all
amounts payable hereunder and thereunder.
(d) As soon
as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by CRCF to
a Governmental Authority, CRCF shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the
original or a certified copy of a receipt, if any, issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return, if any, reporting such
payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and reasonably available to CRCF.
(e) The
Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, if entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax with respect to payments made
hereunder or under the Indenture shall (to the extent legally able to do so)
deliver to CRCF (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law and
reason-ably requested by CRCF on the later of (i) 30 Business Days after such
request is made and the applicable forms are provided to the Administrative
Agent or such Purchaser or (ii) 30 Business Days before prescribed by applicable
law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or with an
exemption from or reduction of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.
(f) If the
Administrative Agent or any Purchaser receives a refund solely in respect of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, it shall pay over such refund to CRCF to the
extent that it has already received indemnity payments or additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 7.2 with respect to such Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes giving rise to the refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses and without
interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with
respect to such refund); provided,
however, that
CRCF shall, upon request of the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser, repay
such refund (plus interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser if the Administrative
Agent or such Purchaser is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. Nothing contained herein shall require the Administrative Agent or
any Purchaser to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its
taxes which it deems confidential) available to CRCF or any other
Person.
(g) The
Administrative Agent and each Purchaser (other than any such entity which is a
domestic corporation) shall:
-63-
(i) upon or
prior to becoming a party hereto, deliver to CRCF and the Administrative Agent
two (2) duly completed copies of IRS Form X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-9, or successor
applicable forms, as the case may be, establishing a complete exemption from
withholding of United States federal income taxes or backup withholding taxes
with respect to payments under the Series 2004-1 Notes and this
Supplement;
(ii) deliver
to CRCF and the Administrative Agent two (2) further copies of any such form or
certification establishing a complete exemption from withholding of United
States federal income taxes or backup withholding taxes with respect to payments
under the Series 2004-1 Notes and this Supplement on or before the date that any
such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence
of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by
it to CRCF; and
(iii) obtain
such extensions of time for filing and completing such forms or certifications
as may reasonably be requested by CRCF and the Administrative
Agent;
unless,
in any such case, any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the
Effective Date (or, if later, the date the Administrative Agent or such
Purchaser becomes an indemnified party hereunder) and prior to the date on which
any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders the relevant form
inapplicable or which would prevent the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser
from duly completing and delivering the relevant form with respect to it, and
the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser so advises CRCF and the
Administrative Agent.
(h) If a
beneficial or equity owner of the Administrative Agent or Purchaser (instead of
the Administrative Agent or a Purchaser itself) is required under United States
federal income tax law or the terms of a relevant treaty to provide IRS Form
X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-9, or any successor applicable forms, as the case may be, in
order to claim an exemption from withholding of United States federal income
taxes or backup withholding taxes, then each such beneficial owner or equity
owner shall be considered to be the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser for
purposes of Section 7.2(g).
Section
7.3. Break
Funding Payments. CRCF
agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and to hold each Purchaser harmless from any
loss or expense which such Purchaser may sustain or incur as a consequence of
(a) the failure by CRCF to accept any Class A-1 Increase after CRCF has given
irrevocable notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this
Supplement, (b) default by CRCF in making any prepay-ment in connection with a
Class A-1 Decrease and/or Class A-2 Decrease after CRCF has given irrevocable
notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.5, (c) the making
of any prepayment of a Eurodollar Tranche, or the conversion of any Alternate
Base Rate Tranche into a Eurodollar Tranche prior to the termination of the
Eurodollar Period for such Eurodollar Tranche or (d) the failure of CRCF to
convert any Eurodollar Tranche or Alternate Base Rate Tranche after notice of
such conversion has been given pursuant to Section 2.6(d) hereof. Such
indemnification shall include an amount determined by such Purchaser equal to
either (x) the excess, if any, of (i) such Purchaser’s cost of funding the
amount so prepaid or not so bor-rowed for the period from the date of such
prepayment or, in the case of a Class A-1 Purchaser, of such failure to borrow
to the last day of the Eurodollar Period (or in the case of a failure to borrow
the Eurodollar Period that
-64-
would
have com-menced on the date of such prepayment or of such failure), as the case
may be, over (ii) the amount of interest earned by such Purchaser upon
redeployment of an amount of funds equal to the amount prepaid or, in the case
of a Class A-1 Purchaser, not borrowed for a com-parable period or (y) if such
Purchaser is able to terminate the funding source before its sched-uled
maturity, any costs associated with such termination. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any payments made by CRCF pursuant to this subsection shall be made
solely from funds available in the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account for the
payment of Article VII Costs, shall be non-recourse other than with respect to
such funds, and shall not constitute a claim against CRCF to the extent that
such funds are insufficient to make such payment. This covenant shall survive
the termination of this Supplement and the Base Indenture and the pay-ment of
all amounts payable hereunder and thereunder. A certificate as to any additional
amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by any Purchaser to
CRCF shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Section
7.4. Alternate
Rate of Interest. If
prior to the commencement of any Eurodollar Period:
(a) the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining
the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Eurodollar Period, or
(b) the
Administrative Agent is advised by any Purchaser that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for
such Eurodollar Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Purchaser of making or maintaining the Eurodollar Tranches during such
Eurodollar Period,
then the
Administrative Agent shall promptly give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof
to CRCF and the Trustee, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies CRCF
and the Trustee that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
exist, the Purchaser Invested Amount with respect to any Purchaser shall not be
allocated to any Eurodollar Tranche.
Section
7.5. Mitigation
Obligations. If a
Purchaser requests compensation under Section 7.1, or if CRCF is required to pay
any additional amount to any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the
account of any Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.2, then, upon written notice from
CRCF, such Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a
different lending office for funding or booking its obligations hereunder or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches
or affiliates, which pays a price for such assignment which is acceptable to
such Purchaser and its assignee, in the judgment of such Purchaser, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant
to Section 7.1 or 7.2, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not
subject such Purchaser to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not
otherwise be disadvantageous to such Purchaser. CRCF hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Purchaser in connection with any
such designation or assignment.

Section
9.1. Appointment. Each of
the Purchasers hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative
Agent as the agent of such Person under this Supplement and irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Supplement and to exercise such powers
and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms of this Supplement, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
elsewhere in this Supplement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties
or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary
relationship with any Purchaser, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obliga-tions or liabilities shall be read into this
Supplement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.
Section
9.2. Delegation
of Duties. The
Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Supplement by or
through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
Section
9.3. Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully
taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with
the Base Indenture, this Supplement or any other Related Document (except
to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such
Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii)
responsible in any manner to any of the Purchasers for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties made by CRCF, the Lessors, the Lessees, the
Permitted Sublessees, the Intermediary, the Administrator or any officer thereof
contained in this Supple-
-68-
ment or
any other Related Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other
document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administra-tive
Agent under or in connection with, this Supplement or any other Related Document
or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Supplement, any other Related Document, or for any failure
of any of CRCF, the Lessors, the Lessees, the Permitted Sublessees, the
Intermediary or the Administrator to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any
Purchaser to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any
of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Supplement, any other
Related Document or to inspect the properties, books or records of CRCF, the
Lessors, the Lessees, the Permitted Sublessees, the Intermediary or the
Administrator.
Section
9.4. Reliance
by Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in
relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document
or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been
signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (includ-ing, without limitation, counsel to CRCF or
the Administrator), independent accountants and other experts selected by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the registered
holder of any Series 2004-1 Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a
written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been
filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Supplement or any
other Related Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence
of the Requisite Noteholders, as it deems appropriate or it shall first be
indemnified to its satisfaction by the Purchasers against any and all liability
and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to
take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Supplement and the
other Related Documents in accordance with a request of the Requisite
Noteholders (unless, in the case of any action relating to the giving of consent
hereunder, the giving of such consent requires the consent of all Series 2004-1
Noteholders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding upon all the Purchasers.
Section
9.5. Notice
of Administrator Default or Amortization Event or Potential Amortization
Event. The
Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event or any
Administrator Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written
notice from a Purchaser, CRCF or the Administrator referring to the Indenture or
this Supplement, describing such Amortization Event or Potential Amortization
Event, or Adminis-tra-tor Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event” or “notice of an
Administrator Default,” as the case may be. In the event that the Administrative
Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof
to the Purchasers, the Trustee, CRCF and the Administrator. The Administrative
Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably
directed by the Requisite Noteholders, provided that unless and until the
Adminis-trative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such event as it shall deem advisable in the
best interests of the Purchasers.
-69-
Section
9.6. Non-Reliance
on the Administrative Agent and Other Purchasers. Each of
the Purchasers expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor
any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by
the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs
of CRCF, the Lessors, the Lessees, the Permitted Sublessees, the Intermediary or
the Administrator shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty
by the Administrative Agent to any such Person. Each of the Purchasers
repre-sents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administra-tive Agent or any other Purchaser and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own apprai-xxx
of and investi-ga-tion into the business, operations, property, financial and
other condi-tion and creditworthiness of CRCF, the Lessors, the Lessees, the
Permitted Sublessees, the Intermediary and the Administrator and made its own
decision to enter into this Supplement. Each of the Purchasers also represents
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent
or any other Purchaser and based on such docu-ments and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and deci-sions in taking or not taking action under this Supplement
and the other Related Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems
necessary to inform itself as to the business, opera-tions, property, financial
and other condition and creditworthiness of CRCF, the Lessors, the Lessees, the
Permitted Sublessees, the Intermediary and the Adminis-trator. Except for
notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the
Purchasers by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall
have no duty or responsibility to provide any Purchaser with any credit or other
information concerning the busi-ness, operations, property, condi-tion
(financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of CRCF, the Lessors,
the Lessees, the Permitted Sublessees, the Intermediary or the Administrator
which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates.
Section
9.7. Indemnification. Each of
the Purchasers agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as
such (to the extent not xxxx-bursed by CRCF and the Administrator and without
limiting the obligation of CRCF and the Administrator to do so), ratably
according to their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect on the date on which
indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7 from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Supplement, any of the other Related
Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted
by the Administrative Agent under or in connec-tion with any of the foregoing;
provided that no Purchaser shall be liable for the payment of any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and
nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of all amounts payable
hereunder.
Section
9.8. The
Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from
and generally engage in any kind of business with CRCF, the Administrator or any
of their Affiliates as though
-70-
the
Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect
to any Series 2004-1 Note held by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative
Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Supplement and the other
Related Documents as any Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were
not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Purchaser” shall include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.
Section
9.9. Resignation
of Administrative Agent; Successor Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent at any time by giving 30
days’ notice to the Purchasers, the Trustee, CRCF and the Administrator. If
Mizuho shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Supplement, then the
Requisite Noteholders shall appoint a successor administrative agent from among
the Purchasers, which successor administrative agent shall be approved by CRCF
and the Administrator (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) whereupon
such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the
Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Supplement.
If no
successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent
by the date which is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice
of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall
nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Purchaser with the greatest
Purchaser Invested Amount (or, if such Person is the retiring Administrative
Agent, the Person with the next highest Purchaser Invested Amount) shall assume
and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such
time, if any, as the Requisite Noteholders appoint a successor agent as provided
for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this
Supplement.
ARTICLE

Section
10.1. Successors
and Assigns.
(a) This
Supplement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and assigns, except that CRCF may not assign or
transfer any of its rights under this Supplement without the prior written
consent of all of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders, and no Purchaser may assign or
transfer any of its rights under this Supplement other than in accordance with
clauses (b) and/or (c) below of this Section 10.1.
(b) Any
Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accor-dance with
applicable law, at any time sell all or any part of its rights and obligations
under this Supplement and the Series 2004-1 Notes (including its Commitment),
with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and, prior to the
occurrence and continuance of an Amortization Event CRCF and the Administrator
(in each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), to one or more
banks (an “Acquiring
Purchaser”)
pursuant to a transfer supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit
H (the
“Transfer
Supplement”),
executed by
-71-
such
Acquiring Purchaser, such assigning Purchaser, the Administrative Agent, CRCF
and the Administrator and delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided that
no prior written consent of CRCF or the Administrator shall be required by a
Purchaser to assign its Series 2004-1 Note to an Affiliate that directly or
indirectly owns 100% of such Purchaser or is directly or indirectly 100% owned
by such Purchaser.
(c) Any
Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accor-dance with
applicable law, at any time sell to one or more financial institutions or other
entities (“Participants”)
participations in its Series 2004-1 Note, its Commitment and its rights
hereunder pur-suant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to such
Purchaser and the Participant; provided, however, that (i) in the event of any
such sale by a Purchaser to a Participant, (A) such Purchaser’s obligations
under this Supplement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Purchaser shall
remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and (C) CRCF and the
Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Purchaser in connection with its rights and obligations under this Supplement
and (ii) no Purchaser shall sell any participating interest under which the
Participant shall have rights to approve any amend-ment to, or any consent or
waiver with respect to, this Supplement, the Base Indenture or any Related
Document, except to the extent that the approval of such amendment, consent or
waiver otherwise would require the unanimous consent of all Purchasers
hereunder. A Participant shall have the right to receive Article VII Costs but
only to the extent that the related selling Purchaser would have had such right
absent the sale of the related participation and, with respect to amounts due
pursuant to Section 7.2, only to the extent such Participant shall have complied
with the provisions of Section 7.2(e) and (g) as if such Participant were the
Administrative Agent or a Purchaser.
(d) CRCF
authorizes each Purchaser to disclose to any Participant or Acquiring Purchaser
(each, a “Transferee”) and
any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Purchaser’s
possession concerning CRCF, the Collateral, the Administrator and the Related
Documents which has been delivered to such Purchaser by CRCF or the
Administrator in connection with such Purchaser’s credit evaluation of CRCF, the
Collateral and the Administrator; provided that
each Transferee or Potential Transferee has agreed to comply with the
confidentiality provisions of Section 10.20 hereof.
Section
10.2. Securities
Law. Each
Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to CRCF that it is an “accredited
investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act and has sufficient assets to bear the economic risk of, and
sufficient knowledge and experi-ence in financial and business matters to
evaluate the merits and risks of, its investment in a Series 2004-1 Note. Each
Purchaser agrees that its Series 2004-1 Note will be acquired for invest-ment
only and not with a view to any public distribution thereof, and that such
Purchaser will not offer to sell or otherwise dispose of its Series 2004-1 Note
(or any interest therein) in violation of any of the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, or any appli-cable state or other securities laws. Each
Purchaser acknowledges that it has no right to require CRCF to register its
Series 2004-1 Note under the Securities Act or any other securities law. Each
Purchaser hereby confirms and agrees that in connection with any transfer by it
of an interest in the Series 2004-1 Note, such Purchaser has not engaged and
will not engage in a general soli-ci-ta-tion or general advertising including
advertisements, articles, notices or other communi-cations published in any
newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over radio
-72-
or
television, or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any
general solicitation or general advertising.
Section
10.3. Adjustments;
Set-off.
(a) If
any Purchaser (a “Benefitted
Purchaser”) shall
at any time receive in respect of its Purchaser Invested Amount any distribution
of principal, interest or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether
voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off or otherwise) in a greater propor-tion
than any such distribution received by any other Purchaser, if any, in respect
of such other Purchaser’s Purchaser Invested Amount, or interest thereon, such
Benefitted Purchaser shall purchase for cash from the other Purchaser such
portion of such other Purchaser’s interest in the Series 2004-1 Notes, or shall
provide such other Purchaser with the benefits of any such collateral, or the
proceeds thereof, as shall be neces-sary to cause such Benefitted Purchaser to
share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with
the other Purchaser; provided,
however, that if
all or any por-tion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered
from such Benefitted Purchaser, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the
purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest. CRCF agrees that any Purchaser so purchasing a portion of
another Purchaser’s Purchaser Invested Amount may exercise all rights of payment
(including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion
as fully as if such Purchaser were the direct holder of such
portion.
(b) In
addition to any rights and remedies of the Purchaser provided by law, each
Purchaser shall have the right, without prior notice to CRCF, any such notice
being expressly waived by CRCF to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon
any amount becom-ing due and payable by CRCF hereunder or under the Series
2004-1 Notes to set-off and appro-priate and apply against any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provi-sional or final), in any currency,
and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any
time held or owing by such Purchaser to or for the credit or the account of
CRCF. Each Purchaser agrees promptly to notify CRCF, the Administrator and the
Administrative Agent after any such set-off and appli-ca-tion made by such
Purchaser; provided that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application.
Section
10.4. No
Bankruptcy Petition.
(a) Each
of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers hereby covenants and agrees that,
prior to the date which is one year and one day after the later of payment in
full of all Series of Notes, it will not institute against, or join any other
Person in instituting against, CRCF any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other similar proceedings under any
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.
(b) This
covenant shall survive the termination of this Supplement and the Base Indenture
and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder and thereunder.
Section
10.5. Costs
and Expenses. CRCF
agrees to pay on demand (x) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of
the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent) and of each Purchaser
(including in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this
Supplement the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel to the
Administrative Agent
-73-
and the
Purchaser) in connection with (i) the preparation, execution and delivery of
this Supplement and the other Related Documents and any amendments or waivers
of, or consents under, any such documents and (ii) the enforcement by the
Administrative Agent or any Purchaser
of the
obligations and liabilities of CRCF, the Lessors, the Lessees, the Permitted
Sublessees, the Intermediary and the Administrator under the Indenture, this
Supplement, the other Related Documents or any related document and all costs
and expenses, if any (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), in
connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Related
Documents and (y) all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent) in connection with the
administration of this Supplement and the other Related Documents. Any
payments made by CRCF pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be made solely from
funds available in the Series 2004-1 Distribution Account for the payment of
Article VII Costs, shall be non-recourse other than with respect to such funds,
and shall not constitute a claim against CRCF to the extent that insufficient
funds exist to make such payment. The agreements in this Section shall survive
the termination of this Supplement and the Base Indenture and the payment of all
amounts payable hereunder and thereunder.

agrees that it will not make any Loan under any Loan Agreement to finance the
acquisi-tion of any Vehicle by AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leas-ing II or CCRG, as the
case may be, if, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, the acquisition

Section
10.16. Collateral
Representations and Warranties of CRCF. CRCF
hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, the Administrative Agent and each
Purchaser that:
(a) the Base
Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the
applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders, which security interest is prior to all other liens, and is
enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from CRCF. This
Supplement will create a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in
the applicable UCC) in the Series 2004-1 Collateral in favor of the Trustee for
the benefit of the Series 2004-1 Noteholders and each Series 2004-1 Interest
Rate Hedge Counterparty, which security interest is prior to all other liens,
and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from CRCF.
(b) The
Collateral and the Series 2004-1 Collateral (in each case, other than the
Vehicles) consist of “investment property,” “securities accounts,”
“instruments,” “general intangibles,” “deposit accounts” and “chattel paper”
within the meaning of the applicable UCC.
(c) CRCF owns
and has good and marketable title to the Collateral and the Series 2004-1
Collateral free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any
Person.
(d) With
respect to the portion of the Collateral that consists of instruments, all
original executed copies of each instrument that constitute or evidence part of
the Collateral have been delivered to the Trustee. None of the instruments that
constitute or evidence the Collateral have any marks or notations indicating
that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other
than the Trustee.
(e) With
respect to the portion of the Collateral that consists of general intangibles,
CRCF has caused the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper
filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to
perfect the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Trustee under the
Base Indenture.
(f) With
respect to the portion of the Collateral and the Series 2004-1 Collateral that
consists of deposit or securities accounts maintained with a bank other than the
Trustee (collectively, the “Bank
Accounts”), CRCF
has delivered to the Trustee a fully executed agreement pursuant to which the
bank maintaining the Bank Accounts has agreed to comply with all instructions
originated by the Trustee directing disposition of the funds in the Bank
Accounts without further consent by CRCF. The Bank Accounts are not in the name
of any person other than CRCF or the Trustee. CRCF has not consented to the bank
maintaining the Bank Accounts to comply with instructions of any person other
than the Trustee.
(g) Other
than the security interest granted to the Trustee under the Base Indenture and
this Supplement, CRCF has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security
interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Collateral or the Series 2004-1
Collateral. CRCF has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any
financing statements

against
CRCF that includes a description of collateral covering the Collateral other
than any financing statement under the Base Indenture or that has been
terminated. CRCF is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against
CRCF.

not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements
against CRCF that include a description of collateral covering the
Collateral other
than any financing statements (i) relating to the security interest granted to
the Trustee in the Base Indenture or (ii) that has been terminated.
Section
10.17. No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No
failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Trustee, the
Administrative Agent or any Purchaser, any right, remedy, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are
cumulative and not exhaustive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges
provided by law.
Section
10.18. Waiver

10.20. Confidential
Information. (a) The
Trustee and each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential
Information in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustee or such
Purchaser in good faith to protect Confidential Information of third parties
delivered to such Person; provided, that
such Person may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to: (i) such

the
-77-
Confidential
Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.20;
(ii) such Person’s financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree

(or in accordance with such other confidentiality procedures as are acceptable

2004-1 Notes, the Indenture or any other Related Document; and provided,
further,
however, that

and (x) above, that it shall use the Confidential Information for the sole
purpose of making an investment in the Series 2004-1 Notes or administering its

of the Confidential Information by such Purchaser, such Purchaser agrees to use
reasonable efforts to protect the confiden-tiality of the Confidential
Information. Each Purchaser, by its acceptance of a Series 2004-1 Note, will be
deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this
Section 10.20; provided, that in
no event shall any Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof be obligated or required
to return any materials furnished by CRCF.
(b) For the
purposes of this Section 10.20, “Confidential

Purchaser; (iii) otherwise is
-78-
known or
becomes known to the Trustee or any Purchaser other than (x) through disclosure
by CRCF or (y) as a result of the breach of a fiduciary duty to CRCF or a
contractual duty to CRCF; or (iv) is allowed to be treated as non-confidential
by consent of CRCF.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, each of the parties hereto (and each of its
employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons,

including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees, paralegal’s fees and

rights and remedies hereunder. Such costs of collection shall bear interest at
the Default Rate until paid.

the Demand Note Issuer shall fail to pay any principal, interest or other
amounts on the date of written demand for payment; provided that such demand is
made prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, or on the next

event shall such rate exceed the highest rate permissible under applicable
law.

valuation and appraisement, demand, presentment, protest and demand, and notice
of protest, demand and dishonor, and nonpayment of this Demand Note, and agrees
that Holder shall have the right, without notice, to grant any extension or
extensions of time for payment of any of said indebtedness or any other
indulgences or forbearances whatsoever.

No
Waiver. No
delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising its rights under this
Demand Note, or delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising its rights
hereunder, or course of conduct relating thereto, shall operate as a waiver of
such rights or any other right of Holder, nor shall any waiver by Holder of any
such right or rights on any one occasion be deemed a bar to, or waiver of, the
same right or rights on any future occasion. Acceptance by Holder of any payment
after its due date shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to require prompt
payment when due of all other sums, and acceptance of any payment after Holder
has declared the indebtedness evidenced by this Demand Note due and payable
shall not cure any Event of Default or operate as a waiver of any right of
Holder.
Modifications. No
amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision
of this Demand Note shall in any event be effective unless (a) the same shall be
in writing and signed and delivered by each of Holder and the Demand Note
