Please
refer to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 30, 2004 (as
in
effect on the date hereof, the "Receivables Purchase
Agreement") among Navistar Financial Retail Receivables Corporation, as
Seller, Navistar Financial Corporation, as Servicer, Thunder Bay Funding, LLC,
as Company, and Royal Bank of Canada, as Agent. Capitalized terms used but
not
defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Receivables
Purchase Agreement.
The
Receivables Purchase Agreement requires, among other things, the
following:
(i) Section
5.1(a) requires that the Servicer deliver to the Agent (x) within 120 days
after
the close of each fiscal year, a copy of the annual report for the Servicer
for
such fiscal year on Form 10-K (the "10-K Delivery
Requirement") and (y) within 45 days after the close of the first three
quarterly periods of a fiscal year, a copy of the quarterly report for the
Servicer for such fiscal year on form 10-Q (the "10-Q Delivery
Requirement"); and
(ii) Section
6.10 requires that on or before February 1 of each year, beginning February
1,
2005, the Servicer shall cause a firm of independent accountants to deliver
to
the Agent an independent Accountant's Report for the preceding fiscal year
(the
"IndependentAccountant's
Report Delivery
Requirement").
For
(x)
the fiscal years ended on October 31, 2005 (the "2005 Fiscal Year")
and October 31, 2006 (the "2006 Fiscal Year"),
the Servicer has failed to satisfy the 10-K Delivery Requirement and has failed
to satisfy the Independent Accountant's Report Delivery Requirement and (y)
the
fiscal year ended on October 31, 2007 (the "2007 Fiscal Year"),
the Servicer expects to fail to satisfy the 10-K Delivery Requirement and
expects to fail to satisfy the Independent Accountant's Report Delivery
Requirement.
Additionally,
the Servicer has notified the Agent that it (i) has failed to timely file its
annual reports on Form 10-K for the 2005 Fiscal Year and the 2006 Fiscal Year
with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the Securities
and Exchange Act of
1934,
(ii) has failed to timely file quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for all of its
fiscal quarters in 2006 and 2007 with the Securities Exchange Commission in
accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and (iii) expects to fail
to timely file its annual report on Form 10-K for the 2007 Fiscal Year and
expects to fail to timely file one or more of its quarterly reports on Form
10-Q
for fiscal quarters in 2008 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in
accordance with the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the occurrence of
any
such failure, a "Periodic Reporting
Failure").
The
Servicer has requested that the Agent waive any potential Servicer Defaults
arising from the matters described above. The Agent xxxxxx agrees to waive
the
occurrence of any Servicer Defaults to the extent described below.
1. The
Agent hereby waives any Servicer Default arising solely from the failure to
satisfy the 10-K Delivery Requirements for the 2005 Fiscal Year, the 2006 Fiscal
Year and the 2007 Fiscal Year; provided that this waiver shall only remain
effective until November 30, 2008 unless the Servicer shall have satisfied
the
10-K Delivery Requirements for the 2005 Fiscal Year, the 2006 Fiscal Year and
the 2007 Fiscal Year prior to such date.
2. The
Agent hereby waives any Servicer Default arising solely from the failure to
satisfy the 10-Q Delivery Requirements for any fiscal quarter in the 2006 fiscal
year of the Servicer, any fiscal quarter in the 2007 fiscal year of the Servicer
and any fiscal quarter in the 2008 fiscal year of the Servicer; provided that
this waiver shall only remain effective until November 30, 2008 unless the
Servicer shall have satisfied the 10-Q Delivery Requirements for each fiscal
quarter in the 2006, 2007 and 2008 fiscal year of the Servicer prior to such
date.
3. The
Agent hereby waives any Servicer Default arising under Section 5.1(c) of the
Receivables Purchase Agreement from any Periodic Reporting Failure; provided
that this waiver shall only remain effective until November 30, 2008 unless
the
Servicer shall have caused the annual reports and quarterly reports giving
rise
to any Periodic Reporting Failure to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission prior to such date.
4. The
Agent hereby waives any Servicer Default arising solely from the failure of
the
Servicer to satisfy the Independent Accountant's Report Delivery Requirements;
provided that this waiver shall only remain effective until November 30, 2008
unless the Servicer shall have satisfied each Independent Accountant's Report
Delivery Requirement prior to such date.
The
Agent
hereby expressly reserves, and nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver
of,
(i) any Servicer Default specified in paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 4 above, to the
extent that the effectiveness of the waiver of such Servicer Default shall
lapse
as described therein and (ii) any rights with respect to any breach constituting
a Servicer Default or Potential Servicer Default existing or arising for any
other reason.
This
waiver may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different
parties on separate counterparts, and each such counterpart shall be deemed
to
be an original but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and
the
same waiver. This waiver shall be a contract made under and governed by the
internal laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to
be
performed entirely within such State.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this waiver to he duly executed
and
delivered by their respective duly authorized officers on the day and year
first
above written.
