WHEREAS, the Depositor and the Owner Trustee entered into that certain Trust Agreement, dated as of August 11, 2014 (the “Original Trust Agreement”), for purposes of forming “Corolla Trust”; and

WHEREAS, the Depositor and the Owner Trustee desire to amend and restate in its entirety the Original Trust Agreement on the terms herein in order to permit the issuance of the Offered Notes and the Owner Trust Certificate;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows, and further that the Original Trust Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

GRANTING CLAUSE

To secure the Offered Notes, the Trust hereby pledges, assigns, conveys, delivers, transfers and sets over to the Note Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, and hereby grants to the Note Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, a security interest in the Trust’s right, title and interest in, to and under, in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising, all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, securities, investment property, commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, documents, goods and letter-of-credit rights and any and all other personal property of any type or nature owned by it that constitute or are the proceeds of the Junior Surplus Notes (collectively, the “Trust Assets”).

The foregoing grant is made in trust to secure the Offered Notes and to secure compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, in each case as provided in this Agreement.

(ii) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel, dated the date of such transfer, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of the Owner Trust Certificate or any interest therein under the Securities Act or any state securities law except for any such registration that has been duly completed and become effective.

(b) In connection with any such transfer, the Person to whom the Owner Trust Certificate is transferred will, by its acquisition and holding of the Owner Trust Certificate, assume all of the rights and obligations of the Certificateholder as described in this Agreement.

Any information so provided will be made available by the Note Trustee free of charge at the Corporate Trust Office of the Note Trustee.

(iv) Any purported transfer of an Offered Note (or any beneficial interest therein) not in accordance with this Section 4.03 shall be null and void ab initio and shall not be given effect for any purpose hereunder and will not operate to transfer any rights to such Person, notwithstanding any instructions to the contrary to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Note Trustee, the Paying Agent or any intermediary, and neither the Note Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall make any distributions on such Offered Note for as long as such Person is the Holder of such Offered Note.

(vi) It intends to treat the Offered Notes as indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(h) Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.

(ii) Upon the receipt by the Registrar of a Registered Note and a written instrument of transfer or exchange, the Registrar shall (x) register the transfer of such Registered Note or exchange such Registered Note for one or more Registered Notes representing, in the aggregate, the same principal balance as the Registered Note transferred or exchanged, or (y) subject to its receipt of (i) written instructions from an Agent Member directing the Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account a beneficial interest in a Global Note representing the same principal balance of Registered Notes so transferred and (ii) a written order from an Agent Member containing information regarding the account of such Agent Member to be credited with such beneficial interest, cancel such Registered Note and instruct DTC to increase the principal balance of Offered Notes represented by the Global Note by the amount of Registered Notes so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note the same principal balance of Registered Notes so transferred. Any expenses relating to the exchange of a Registered Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall be at the sole expense of the holder seeking to effect such transfer. Each transfer must satisfy all transfer restrictions in this Agreement and the Offered Notes.

(i) Each Registered Note surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Registrar in accordance with its customary practice.

(j) No service charge shall be made for the registration of transfer or exchange of any Registered Note, but the Registrar may require from the Holder surrendering such Registered Note payment of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Registered Note. Any costs or expenses of the Trust in connection with the transfer or exchange of any Registered Note shall be borne by the Noteholder requesting such transfer or exchange.

The Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed on the issuance of the new Offered Note under this Section. Any duplicate Offered Note issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership of such Offered Note, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen, or destroyed Offered Note is found. Any costs or expenses of the Trust in connection with the issuance of an Offered Note pursuant to this shall be borne by the Noteholder requesting such transfer or exchange.

No Agent Member, nor any other Persons on whose behalf Agent Members may act, shall have any rights under this Agreement with respect to any Global Note registered in the name of DTC or any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Note. DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Trustees, the Registrar, and any paying agent for the Offered Notes as the absolute owner and holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Trustees, the Registrar, or any paying agent for the Offered Notes or any agent

- 14 -

Registered Notes issued in exchange for such Global Note (or partial beneficial interest therein) shall be issued and delivered to, and registered in the Register in, such names and denominations as DTC shall designate, as reflected in the records of beneficial interest maintained by DTC.

TAXES

Section 13.01. Tax Treatment as Grantor Trust

(o) It is the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for income and franchise tax purposes, the Trust shall be treated as a grantor trust, with the assets of the Trust being the Trust Assets and the owner of the grantor trust being the Certificateholder; provided, however, that if the Internal Revenue Service asserts that the Trust fails to qualify as a grantor trust, the parties agree to treat the Trust as disregarded as an entity separate from the Certificateholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes during any period in which there is a single Certificateholder.

(p) If, notwithstanding the preceding paragraph and the intention of the parties, the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership for tax purposes and (x) the Depositor is the Certificateholder (or one of the Certificateholders), then the Depositor shall serve as tax matter partner and shall make all decisions, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, relating to Taxes and shall be responsible for filing or causing to be filed as returns, reports and other forms on the part of the Trust or (y) the Depositor is not a Certificateholder, then the Certificateholder (or, if there is more than one Certificateholder, the Certificateholder owning the largest percentage interest in the Certificate or Certificates) shall serve as the tax matters partner with the responsibilities set forth in clause (x). The Trustees shall have no responsibility for ensuring that the Trust is in compliance with applicable tax laws, rules or regulations, except to the extent required by law. The Trustees shall, however, provide the tax matters partner with all information with regard to the Trust which the tax matters partner reasonably deems to be necessary in order to fulfill its duties as tax matters partner provided that the Trustees obtained such information in their capacity as Trustees of the Trust and such information is available to the Trustees.

Section 13.02. Tax Treatment of the Notes

(c) The Trust, the Certificateholder, the Note Trustee and each Holder agree to treat the Notes as indebtedness for all U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.

(d) The Trust, the Certificateholder, the Note Trustee and each Holder agree to treat the Notes as not providing for any payment before the Maturity Date for all U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.

Section 13.03. Tax Reports to Holders, Internal Revenue Service and Others.

(e) The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust, acting at the direction of the Certificateholder, will file

- 37 -

or cause to be filed annual or other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the characterization of the Trust as provided in Section 13.01(a) hereof for such tax purposes.

(f) The Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust, acting at the direction of the Certificateholder (or in the event that the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership and the Notes are recharacterized as partnership interests for tax purposes, the tax matters partner), shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, reports or statements as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations and as may be required to enable the Holders to prepare their U.S. Federal and state income tax returns and the Owner Trustee shall deliver to the Holders such information, upon receipt from the Certificateholder (or in the event that the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership and the Notes are recharacterized as partnership interests for tax purposes, the tax matters partner). Consistent with the Trust’s characterization for tax purposes as a grantor trust, no U.S. Federal income tax return (other than any such return required with respect to grantor trust tax treatment) shall be filed on behalf of the Trust unless either (a) the Trust, the Certificateholder or a Noteholder shall receive an Opinion of Counsel that the Code requires such a filing or (b) the Internal Revenue Service shall determine that the Trust is required to file such a return. In the event that the Trust is required to file U.S. Federal and/or state tax returns, the Certificateholder (or in the event that the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership for tax purposes, the tax matters partner) shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared, at its sole cost and expense, any U.S. Federal and/or state tax returns required to be filed by the Trust and shall remit such returns to the Owner Trustee at least five days before such returns are due to be filed. The Certificateholder (or in the event that the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership for tax purposes, the tax matters partner), the Owner Trustee, or any other such party required by law, shall promptly sign such returns and deliver such returns after signature to the Certificateholder (or in the event that the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership for tax purposes, the tax matters partner) and such returns shall be filed by, or at the direction of the Certificateholder (or in the event that the Trust is recharacterized as a partnership for tax purposes, the tax matters partner) with the appropriate tax authorities. In no event shall the Trustees be liable for any liabilities, costs or expenses of the Trust arising out of the application of any tax law, including Federal, state, foreign or local income or excise taxes or any other tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest, penalty or addition with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith), except for any such liability, cost or expense attributable to any act or omission by such Trustee which constitutes negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustees shall have no responsibility for ensuring that the Trust is in compliance with applicable tax laws, rules or regulations, except to the extent required by law.

(g) Prior to the first payment to any Noteholder under this Agreement, such Noteholder (or, with respect to any Global Note, each holder of a beneficial interest therein) shall deliver to the Paying Agent (x)(i) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8ECI (or applicable successor form and any related forms as may from time to time be adopted to document a claim to which such form relates) or (ii) a duly completed copy of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form and any related forms as may from time to time be adopted to document a claim to which such form relates) and (y) any information requested pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code. Each Noteholder (or, with respect to any Global Note, each holder of a beneficial

- 38 -

interest therein) shall certify that (A) in the case of any form provided pursuant to clause (x)(i) of the preceding sentence it is a non-U.S. Person and is entitled to receive payments hereunder without deduction or withholding of any United States Federal income taxes or (B) in the case of any form provided pursuant to clause (x) (ii) of the preceding sentence it is a U.S. Person and is entitled to receive payments hereunder without deduction or withholding of any United States Federal backup withholding taxes. Each Noteholder (or, with respect to any Global Note, each holder of a beneficial interest therein) also agrees to deliver further copies of said Form W-8BEN, Form X-0XXX-X, X-0XXX or W-9 (or applicable successor form and any related forms as may from time to time be adopted to document a claim to which such form relates), and any related certification or information as described in the preceding two sentences, as the case may be, (i) on or before the date that any such form previously provided expires or becomes obsolete, (ii) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously provided unless a change in a treaty, law or regulation has occurred prior to the date on which delivery would otherwise be required that renders all such forms inapplicable or that would prevent such Noteholder (or, with respect to any Global Note, each holder of a beneficial interest therein) from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Noteholder (or, with respect to any Global Note, each holder of a beneficial interest therein) so advises the Owner Trustee and (iii) upon reasonable request of the Owner Trustee.

Section 13.04. Withholding.

(a) In the event that any withholding or deduction for or on account of any Tax is required by law on any payment to be made to the Holders under this Agreement and such Holder has not or cannot provide the documentation required by Section 13.02(c) of this Agreement (or such documentation is deemed invalid by the United States Internal Revenue Service), the Paying Agent shall:

(viii) promptly notify the Holder of such requirement;

(ix) make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of such Tax;

(x) pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of such Tax from the payment due to such Holder to the relevant taxation authority or other governmental authority promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed;

(xi) as soon as practicable after the date of any payment of such Tax to the relevant taxation authority or other governmental authority, furnish to the Holder the official receipt or a certified copy thereof, evidencing payment thereof.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, the Paying Agent has no obligation to pay any additional amount that would cause the net amount actually received by the Holder (free and clear of all Taxes) to equal the full amount the Holder would have received had no such deduction or withholding in respect of such Tax been required. The Holder will receive payment net of any withholding or deduction for or on account of any Tax required by law.
