ARTICLE III

Certificates and Transfer of Interests

SECTION 3.01. Initial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by DCRR as described in Section 2.05 and until the issuance of the Certificates, the Depositor shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust.

SECTION 3.02. The Certificates. The Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of a one percent Percentage Interest in the Trust. The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Certificates.

A transferee of a Certificate shall become a Certificateholder and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee’s acceptance of a Certificate duly registered in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.

SECTION 3.03. Authentication of Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Certificates in an aggregate Percentage Interest equal to 100% to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or upon the written order of the

Depositor, signed by its chairman of the board, its president, any vice president, secretary or any assistant treasurer, without further corporate action by the Depositor, in the authorized denominations. No Certificate shall entitle its Owner to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall appear on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as the Trust’s authenticating agent, by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

SECTION 3.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of the Certificates; Limitations on Transfer. (a) The Trust shall cause to be kept a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trust shall provide for the registration of Certificates and the registration of transfers of Certificates. The Trust hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee to be the initial “Certificate Registrar” for the purpose of the registration of the Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon any resignation of any Certificate Registrar, the Trust shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Certificate Registrar.

(b) The Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and will not be listed on any exchange. No transfer of a Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities laws. Except in the case of transfers made on the Closing Date to the Company or any of its affiliates (including Chrysler Residual Depositor LLC and Chrysler Retail Residual Trust (or Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as indenture trustee therefor)) (the “Residual Transfers”), in the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and state securities laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Owner desiring to effect such transfer and such Owner’s prospective transferee shall each certify to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit C (the “Transferor Certificate”) and either Exhibit D (the “Investment Letter”) or Exhibit E (the “Rule 144A Letter”). Except in the case of (i) Residual Transfers or (ii) a transfer as to which the proposed transferee has provided a Rule 144A Letter, there shall also be delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act and state securities laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust or the Owner Trustee; provided that such Opinion of Counsel in respect of the applicable state securities laws may be a memorandum of law rather than an opinion if such counsel is not licensed in the applicable jurisdiction. The Depositor shall provide to any Owner of a Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Owner, information regarding the Certificates and the Receivables and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Owner of a Certificate desiring to effect such a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee, and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with federal and state securities laws. The Owner Trustee

or the Certificate Registrar shall cause each Certificate to contain a legend in the form set forth on the form of Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(c) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08 and subject to the satisfaction of the preceding paragraph, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause the Indenture Trustee as the Trust’s authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of like tenor and in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Percentage Interest dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent; provided that prior to such execution, authentication and delivery, the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the proposed transfer will not cause the Trust to be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or alter the tax characterization of the Senior Notes for federal income tax purposes or Michigan income and single business tax purposes. At the option of an Owner, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of like tenor and of authorized denominations of a like aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08.

(d) Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Owner or such Owner’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice.

(e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

(f) The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner Trustee shall not make, and the Certificate Registrar shall not register transfers or exchanges of, Certificates for a period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Certificates.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary but subject to Section 3.04(h) below, no Certificate shall be transferred without a simultaneous transfer of an identical Percentage Interest of the Class D Notes to the same transferee. Any purported transfer of a Certificate without such simultaneous transfer of Class D Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be null and void ab initio. The Notes Registrar and the Certificate Registrar shall maintain records with respect to ownership and transfers of the Class D Notes identical in all respect to the records maintained with respect to the Certificates.

(h) The preceding Section 3.04(g) shall not apply if the Owner of a Certificate shall have (at its sole expense) supplied the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar with an opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that a transfer of a Certificate that is

not in accordance with the preceding Section 3.04(g) would not cause the Trust to be treated as a corporation or an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

SECTION 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee, as the Owner Trustee’s authenticating agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

SECTION 3.06. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 3.07. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the Depositor, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a written request therefor from the Servicer or the Depositor, a list, in such form as the Servicer or the Depositor may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. If a Certificateholder applies in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the applicant desires to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicant access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Each Owner, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Depositor, the Company or the Certificate Registrar accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

SECTION 3.08. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Owner Trustee shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee in respect of the Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Trust initially designates the Certificate Registrar, as its office for such purposes. The Trust shall give prompt written notice to the Company and to the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

SECTION 3.09. Definitive Certificates. The Certificates, upon original issuance, will be issued in definitive, fully registered form.

ARTICLE IV

Actions by Owner Trustee

(c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or under any Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Owners requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any written instruction of the Owners received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Owners, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

(b) No trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee.

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates,

properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor co-trustee or separate trustee.

This Agreement may be amended by the Depositor, the Company and the Owner Trustee, with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies, without the consent of any of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement or for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions in this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder or Certificateholder.

This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Company and the Owner Trustee, with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies, with the consent of the Holders (as defined in the Indenture) of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the consent of the Owners of Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates, 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, however, that no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on the Receivables or distributions that shall be required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the Certificates required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all the outstanding Notes and the Owners of the Certificates.

Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Owner Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee and each of the Rating Agencies.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders or Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State.

Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the

execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Owner Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

In connection with the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or any amendment of any other agreement to which the Trust is a party, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment is authorized or permitted by the Basic Documents and that all conditions precedent in the Basic Documents for the execution and delivery thereof by the Trust or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, have been satisfied.

Prior to the payment in full of the Senior Notes, this Agreement may be amended upon the request of any Certificateholder to permit the transfer of the Certificates other than in accordance with Section 3.04(g), which amendment may include the addition or deletion of any provisions appropriate thereto; provided that the requesting Certificateholder shall have (at its sole expense) supplied the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with an opinion of nationally recognized counsel to the effect that the execution of such amendment will not result in the recognition by any Holder of a Senior Note of a “taxable event” within the meaning of Section 1001 of the Code or adversely affect any rights or remedies of any Holder of a Senior Note.

SECTION 11.02. No Legal Title to Owner Trust Estate in Owners. The Owners shall not have legal title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate. The Owners shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to their undivided ownership interest therein only in accordance with Articles V and IX. No transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of any right, title or interest of the Owners to and in their ownership interest in the Trust shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any transferee to an accounting or to the transfer to it of legal title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate.

SECTION 11.03. Limitations on Rights of Others. The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Owner Trustee, the Depositor, the Owners, the Administrator and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Noteholders, and nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give to any other Person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim in the Owner Trust Estate or under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenants, conditions or provisions contained herein.

(b) Any notice required or permitted to be given to a Certificateholder shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such Owner as shown in the Certificate Register. Any notice so mailed within the time prescribed in this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Certificateholder receives such notice.

SECTION 11.05. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 11.06. Separate Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

SECTION 11.07. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Depositor and its permitted assignees, the Owner Trustee and its successors and each Owner and its successors and permitted assigns, all as herein provided. Any request, notice, direction, consent, waiver or other instrument or action by an Owner shall bind the successors and assigns of such Owner.

SECTION 11.09. No Recourse. Each Certificateholder by accepting a Certificate acknowledges that such Certificateholder’s Certificates represent beneficial interests in the Trust only and do not represent interests in or obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Company, DCRR, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated in this Agreement, the Certificates or the Basic Documents.

SECTION 11.10. Headings. The headings of the various Articles and Sections herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

SECTION 11.11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

THIS CERTIFIES THAT is the registered owner of a PERCENT nonassessable, fully-paid, undivided percentage interest in DaimlerChrysler Auto Trust 2007-A (the “Trust”), formed by DaimlerChrysler Financial Services Americas LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (the “Depositor”), and DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (the “DCRR”).

A-1

The Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of November 1, 2006, as amended and restated by the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement dated as of November 1, 2007 (as so amended and restated and further amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), among the Depositor, DCRR and The Bank of New York (Delaware), as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1, 2007 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), between the Trust and the Depositor, as seller and as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), as applicable.

This Certificate is one of the duly authorized class of certificates (herein called the “Certificates”). Also issued under an Indenture dated as of November 1, 2007 (the “Indenture”), between the Trust and Citibank, N.A., as indenture trustee, are the nine classes of Notes designated as “Class A-1 4.94500% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-2a 4.94% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-2b Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-3a 5.00% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-3b Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes,” “Class A-4 5.28% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class B 6.25% Asset Backed Notes,” “Class C 6.25% Asset Backed Notes” and “Class D Asset Backed Notes” (collectively, the “Notes”).

The Company, by acceptance of the Certificates, agrees to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the above treatment for so long as the Company is the sole Owner.

Solely in the event the Certificates are held by more than a single Owner, it is the intent of the Depositor, the Company, DCRR, the Servicer and the Certificateholders that, for purposes of federal income, state and local income and single business tax and any other income taxes, the Trust will be treated as a partnership and the Certificateholders (including the Company) will be treated as partners in the partnership. The Company and the other Certificateholders, by acceptance of a Certificate, agree to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the Certificates for such tax purposes as partnership interests in the Trust.

Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Certificate covenants and agrees that such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against the Company, or join in any institution against the Company of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not entitle the Owner hereof to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

[REVERSE OF CERTIFICATE]

The Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Company, DCRR, the Owner Trustee or any affiliates of any of them and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust Agreement or the Basic Documents. A copy of each of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement may be examined by any Certificateholder upon written request during normal business hours at the principal office of the Depositor and at such other places, if any, designated by the Depositor.

The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor and the Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Company and the Owner Trustee with the consent of the holders of the Certificates and the Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interests evidenced by the outstanding Certificates or a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes. Any such consent by the Owner of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Owner and on all future Owners of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Owners of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained by the Trust in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Owner hereof or such Owner’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee. The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is Citibank, N.A.

Except as provided in the Trust Agreement, the Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates. As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate denomination, as requested by the Owner surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the disposition of all property held as part of the Owner Trust

Estate. The Servicer of the Receivables may at its option purchase the Owner Trust Estate at a price specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such purchase of the Receivables and other property of the Trust will effect early retirement of the Certificates; provided, however, such right of purchase is exercisable only as of the last day of any Collection Period as of which the Pool Balance is less than or equal to 10% of the Original Pool Balance.

The Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire the Certificates (each, a “Benefit Plan”). By accepting and holding this Certificate, the Owner hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.
