Administrator shall perform such calculations and shall prepare or shall cause
the preparation by other appropriate Persons of, and shall execute on behalf of
the Issuer, all such documents, notices, reports, filings, instruments,

amount of any withholding tax required to be withheld by the Owner Trustee
pursuant to such provision.

the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible for performance of the

however, that the Owner Trustee shall retain responsibility for the distribution
of the Schedule K-1's, necessary to enable each Owner to prepare its federal and

performed by the Administrator under the Trust Agreement or the Indenture.

under this Agreement, the Administrator may enter into transactions or otherwise
deal with any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any such
transactions or dealings shall be in accordance with any directions received
from the Issuer and shall be, in the Administrator's opinion, no less favorable
to the Issuer than would be available from unaffiliated parties.
(h) With respect to matters that in the reasonable judgment of the
Administrator are non-ministerial, the Administrator shall not take any action
unless within a reasonable time before the taking of such action, the

shall include:

Depositor at any time during normal business hours.

Administrator's obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its
expenses related

Agreement, the Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not be

the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations
hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer, the Administrator shall
have no authority to act for or represent the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in any
way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer or the Owner

Section 1.08 Other Activities of Administrator. Nothing herein shall
prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses
or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an

may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

Section 1.12 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by

or the Certificateholders, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or
of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders; provided, that such amendment will not, in the Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect
the interest of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders. This Agreement
may also be amended by the parties hereto with the written consent of the Owner
Trustee and the Holders of Notes evidencing at least a majority of the
Outstanding Amount and the Holders of Trust Certificates evidencing at least a
majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Trust Certificates for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any

shall not be unreasonably withheld. Prior to its execution of any amendment to

by the Issuer and the Owner Trustee and subject to the satisfaction of the
Rating Agency Condition in respect thereof. An assignment with such consent and
satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder in
the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Agreement may be assigned by the Administrator without the
consent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to a corporation or other
organization that is a successor (by merger, consolidation or purchase of
assets) to the Administrator; provided, that such successor organization
executes and delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee
an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee, in which such corporation or other organization
agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in the same manner
as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto.

Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder (or the provision in a private offering of disclosure comparable to
that required under the Securities Act). The Administrator acknowledges that
interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time,
whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff,

counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Indenture
Trustee, the Servicer or any other party to the Transaction Documents in good
faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of
evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection therewith, the
Administrator shall cooperate fully with the Administrator, on behalf of the
Issuer to deliver to the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer (including any
of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications,
records and any other information necessary in the good faith determination of
the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, to permit the Administrator, on
behalf of the Issuer, to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB.
