In any case where several matters are required to be certified by,

or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Wherever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or
certificate or report to the Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall
deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as
evidence of compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and
accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective
date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and
opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to
the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency
of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to
affect the
24
Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion
contained in any such document as provided in Section 7.01(a)(ii).
Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the absence of the
occurrence and continuation of a Default or Event of Default or Servicer Event
of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any action by the Trustee
at the request or direction of the Issuer, then, notwithstanding that the
satisfaction of such condition is a condition precedent to the Issuer's right to
make such request or direction, the Trustee shall be protected in acting in
accordance with such request or direction if it does not have knowledge of the
occurrence and continuation of such Default or Event of Default or Servicer
Event of Default. For all purposes of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be
deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default nor shall the
Trustee have any duty to monitor or investigate to determine whether a default
has occurred (other than an Event of Default of the kind described in Section
6.01(a)) or Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee shall have actual knowledge thereof or shall have been notified in
writing thereof by the Issuer, the Servicer, or any Noteholder.
SECTION 1.04. Acts of Noteholders, etc.
(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by
agents duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such
instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is
hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments
(and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Noteholders signing such
instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of
a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of
this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01) conclusive in favor of the
Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section
1.04.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer
authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the
individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the
execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a
capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit
shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date
of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of
the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner
which the Trustee deems sufficient.
(c) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act of the holder of any Note shall bind every future
holder of the same Note and the holder of every Note issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefore or in lieu
thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to
25
be done by the Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not
notation of such action is made upon such Note.
(d) By accepting the Notes issued pursuant to this Indenture, each
Noteholder irrevocably appoints the Trustee hereunder as the special
attorney-in-fact for such Noteholder vested with full power on behalf of
such Noteholder to effect and enforce the rights of such Noteholder and
the revisions pursuant hereto for the benefit of such Noteholder; provided
that nothing contained in this Section 1.04(d) shall be deemed to confer
upon the Trustee any duty or power to vote on behalf of the Noteholders
with respect to any matter on which the Noteholders have a right to vote
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.
SECTION 1.05. Notices, etc., to Trustee, Servicer, Issuer and Rating
Agencies.
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver, Act of Noteholders, or other document provided or permitted by this
Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, the Trustee,
the Issuer or the Servicer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder
(unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed,
first-class postage prepaid or certified mail return receipt requested, or sent
by private courier or confirmed telecopy. Unless otherwise specifically provided
herein, no such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver, Act of Noteholders or other document shall be effective until received
and any provision hereof requiring the making, giving, furnishing, or filing of
the same on any date shall be interpreted as requiring the same to be sent or
delivered in such fashion that it will be received on such date. Any such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, Act of
Noteholders, or other document shall be sent or delivered to the following
addresses:

SECTION 1.06. Notice to Noteholders; Waiver.
(a) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any
event, or the mailing of any report to Noteholders, such notice or report shall
be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing
and mailed, first-class postage prepaid or certified mail return receipt
requested, or sent by private courier or confirmed telecopy to each Noteholder
affected by such event or to whom such report is required to be mailed, at its
address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and
not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice or
the mailing of such report. In any case where a notice or report to Noteholders
is mailed, neither the failure to mail such notice or report, nor any defect in
any notice or report so mailed, to any particular Noteholder shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice or report with respect to other Noteholders. Where
this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after
the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of
notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not
be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon
such waiver.
(b) In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or
by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to mail or send notice to
Noteholders, in accordance with Section 1.06(a), of any event or any report to
Noteholders when such notice or report is required to be delivered pursuant to
any provision of this Indenture, then such notification or delivery as shall be
made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification
for every purpose hereunder.
SECTION 1.07. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.
The Article and Section headings herein and in the Table of Contents
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.
SECTION 1.08. Successors and Assigns.

SECTION 1.10. Legal Holidays.
In any case where any Payment Date or the Stated Maturity or any
other date on which principal of or interest on any Note is proposed to be paid
shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this
Indenture or of the Notes) such payment need not be made on such date, but may
be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if
made on such Payment Date, Stated Maturity, or other date on which principal of
or interest on any Note is proposed to be paid, provided that no interest shall
accrue for the period from and after such Payment Date, Stated Maturity, or any
other date on which principal of or interest on any Note is proposed to be paid,
as the case may be, until such next succeeding Business Day.
SECTION 1.11. Execution in Counterparts.
This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
SECTION 1.12. Inspection.
The Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit
the representatives of the Trustee or any Noteholder holding Notes, or a
beneficial interest therein, evidencing at least 25% of the Outstanding
Principal Amount of the Receivable Notes or 25% of the Outstanding Principal
Amount of the Class R Notes, during the Issuer's normal business hours, to
examine all of the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the
Issuer, to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be
audited by independent accountants selected by the Issuer and reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee or such Noteholder, as the case may be, and to discuss
its affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, employees and independent
accountants (and by this provision the Issuer hereby authorizes its accountants
to discuss with such representatives such affairs, finances and accounts), all
at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested for the
purpose of reviewing or evaluating the financial condition or affairs of the
Issuer or the performance of and compliance with the covenants and undertakings
of the Issuer in this Indenture, the Assignment and Servicing Agreement or any
of the other documents referred to herein or therein. Any expense incident to
the exercise by the Trustee at any time or any Noteholder during the continuance
of any Default or Event of Default, of any right under this Section 1.12 shall
be borne by the Issuer.
SECTION 1.13. Survival of Representations and Warranties.
The representations, warranties and certifications of the Issuer
made in this Indenture or in any certificate or other writing delivered by the
Issuer pursuant hereto shall survive the authentication and delivery of the

SECTION 2.02. Execution, Authentication, Delivery, and Dating.
(a) The Notes shall be manually executed by the Issuer.
(b) Any Note bearing the signature of an individual who was at the

notwithstanding that such individual ceases to hold such office prior to the

of such Note.
(c) No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or

(d) The Notes may from time to time be executed by the Issuer and
delivered to the Trustee for authentication together with a Trust Request to the

SECTION 2.03. Transfer and Exchange.
(a) The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office
a register (the "Note Register") in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the
registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Trustee is hereby appointed
"Note Registrar" for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as
herein provided.
No transfer of any Class E Note may be made unless that transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act
and an effective registration or a qualification under applicable state
securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such
registration or qualification because the transfer satisfies one of the
following: (i) such transfer is in compliance with Rule 144A under the
Securities Act, to a person who the transferor reasonably believes is a
Qualified Institutional Buyer (as defined in Rule 144A) that is purchasing for
its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer and to
whom notice is given that such transfer is being made in reliance upon Rule 144A
under the Securities Act as certified by such transferee in a letter in the form
of Exhibit B hereto; (ii) after the appropriate holding period, such transfer is
pursuant to an exemption from registration under the
32
Securities Act provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (iii) such
transfer is to a transferee who is an "Accredited Investor" (as defined in Rule
501 of the Securities Act) in a transaction exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any State of the United States or (iv) such
transfer is otherwise exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act. If any resale or other transfer of (a) the Class R Notes is
proposed to be made to an Accredited Investor pursuant to clause (iii) above or
(b) the Class E Notes is proposed, the Trustee will require, in order to assure
compliance with such laws, that the Class E Noteholder's or Class R Noteholder's
prospective transferee referred to in the preceding clauses (iii) or (iv)
deliver an investment letter certifying to the Issuer and the Trustee as to the
facts surrounding such transfer in the form of Exhibit B hereto. Except in the
case of a transfer of Class E Notes or Class R Notes to a transferee referred to
in the preceding clause (i) or, in general, a transfer that is to be made after
three years from the Issuance Date, the Trustee shall require an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to it to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant
to an exemption from the Securities Act without such registration (which opinion
of counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Servicer or the
Issuer). None of the Issuer, the Servicer or the Trustee is obligated to
register or qualify the Class E Notes or the Class R Notes under the Securities
Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required
under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Class E Note or Class R Note
without registration.
The Trustee shall not register the transfer of any Note (other than
the transfer of a Note to the nominee of the Clearing Agency) unless the
transferee has executed and delivered to the Trustee a certification to the
effect that either (i) the transferee is not (A) an employee benefit plan (as
defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended ("ERISA")) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA or
(B) a plan (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code")) that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code (each
of the foregoing, a "Benefit Plan"), and is not acting on behalf of or investing
the assets of a Benefit Plan, or (ii) the transferee's acquisition and continued
holding of the Note will be covered by a U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited
Transaction Class Exemption. Each transferee of a book-entry Note shall be
deemed to make one of the foregoing representations.
(b) Each transferee of Class R Notes represented by an interest in a
Rule 144A Global Note will be deemed to have represented and agreed as follows
(terms used in this paragraph that are defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act are used herein as defined therein):
(1) The transferee (A) is a "qualified institutional buyer", (B)
is aware that the sale of the Class R Notes to it is being
made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided
by Rule 144A under the Securities Act and (C) is acquiring the
Class R Notes for its own account or for one or more accounts,
each of which is a QIB, and as to each of which the transferee
exercises sole investment discretion, and in a principal
amount of not less than $1,000,000, for the transferee and for
each such account. The transferee has
33
such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
its investment in the Class R Notes, and the transferee and
any accounts for which it is acting are each able to bear the
economic risk of the transferee's or its investment.
(2) The transferee understands that the Class R Notes are being
offered only in a transaction not involving any public
offering in the United States within the meaning of the
Securities Act, the Class R Notes have not been and will not
be registered under the Securities Act, and, if in the future
the transferee decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise
transfer the Class R Notes, such Class R Notes may be offered,
resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only in accordance
with the legend on such Class R Notes described above. The
transferee acknowledges that no representation is made by the
Issuer as to the availability of any exemption under the
Securities Act or any state securities laws for resale of the
Class R Notes.
(3) The transferee has carefully read and understands the Class R
Private Placement Memorandum, including, without limitation,
the "Risk Factor" section therein, and has based its decision
to purchase the Class R Notes upon the information contained
therein and not upon any information, if any, provided to it
by any of the Issuer, the Placement Agent or any other Person.
The transferee is not purchasing the Class R Notes with a view
to the resale, distribution or other disposition thereof in
violation of the Securities Act. The transferee understands
that an investment in the Class R Notes involves certain
risks, including the risk of loss of a substantial part of its
investment under certain circumstances. The transferee has had
access to such financial and other information concerning the
Issuer and the Class R Notes as it deemed necessary or
appropriate in order to make an informed investment decision
with respect to its purchase of the Class R Notes, including
an opportunity to ask questions of and request information
from the Placement Agent.
(4) In connection with the transfer of the Class R Notes: (i) none
of the Issuer, the Placement Agent or the Servicer is acting
as a fiduciary or financial or investment adviser for the
transferee; (ii) the transferee is not relying (for purposes
of making any investment decision or otherwise) upon any
advice, counsel or representations (whether written or oral)
of the Issuer, the Placement Agent or the Servicer other than
any in a current private placement memorandum for such Class R
Notes and any representations expressly set forth in a written
agreement with such party; (iii) none of the Issuer, the
Placement Agent or the Servicer
34
has given to the transferee (directly or indirectly through
any other person) any assurance, guarantee, or representation
whatsoever as to the expected or projected success,
profitability, return, performance, result, effect,
consequence, or benefit (including legal, regulatory, tax,
financial, accounting, or otherwise) of the Indenture or
documentation for the Class R Notes; (iv) the transferee has
consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business,
investment, financial, and accounting advisers to the extent
it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment
decisions (including decisions regarding the suitability of
any transaction pursuant to the Indenture) based upon its own
judgment and upon any advice from such advisers as it has
deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by the
Issuer; (v) the transferee has determined that the rates,
prices or amounts and other terms of the purchase and sale of
the Class R Notes reflect those in the relevant market for
similar transactions; (vi) the transferee is acquiring the
Class R Notes with a full understanding of all of the terms,
conditions and risks thereof (economic and otherwise), and it
is capable of assuming and willing to assume (financially and
otherwise) those risks; and (vii) the transferee is a
sophisticated investor.
(5) The transferee understands that the Class R Notes offered in
reliance on Rule 144A will bear the legend set forth in the
form of Class R Notes attached hereto as Exhibit A, and will
be represented by one or more Rule 144A Global Notes. The
Class R Notes may not at any time be held by or on behalf of
U.S. persons that are not QIBs or institutional accredited
investors. Before any interest in a Rule 144A Global Note may
be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred to a
person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a
Definitive Note, the transferor will be required to provide
the Trustee with a written certification (in the form provided
as Exhibit B hereto) as to compliance with the transfer
restrictions.
(6) The transferee will not, at any time, offer to buy or offer to
sell the Class R Notes by any form of general solicitation or
advertising, including, but not limited to, any advertisement,
article, notice or other communication published in any
newspaper, magazine or similar medium or broadcast over
television or radio or seminar or meeting whose attendees have
been invited by general solicitations or advertisings.
(7) The transferee by its purchase of the Class R Notes,
represents that either (i) it is not a Benefit Plan and is not
acting on behalf of or investing the assets of a Benefit Plan
or (ii) the transferee's acquisition and continued holding of
such Class R Notes will be
35

ARTICLE III
ACCOUNTS; INVESTMENT OF MONEYS; COLLECTION
AND APPLICATION OF MONEYS; REPORTS
SECTION 3.01. Trust Accounts; Investments by Trustee.
(a) On or before the Issuance Date, the Trustee shall establish the
Collection Account and the Reserve Account in the name of the Trustee for the
benefit of the Receivable Noteholders to the extent of their interests therein
as provided in this Indenture and in the Assignment and Servicing Agreement
which accounts shall be Eligible Accounts maintained at the Corporate Trust
Office. On or before the Issuance Date, the Trustee shall establish the Residual
Account and the Liquidity Reserve Account in the name of the Trustee for the
benefit of the Class R Noteholders to the extent of their interests therein as
provided in this Indenture and in the Assignment and Servicing Agreement, which
accounts shall be Eligible Accounts maintained at the Corporate Trust Office.
Subject to the further provisions of this Section 3.01(a), the Trustee shall,
upon receipt or upon transfer from another account, as the case may be, deposit
into such accounts all amounts received by it which are required to be deposited
therein in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. All such amounts
and all investments made with such amounts, including all income and other gain
from such investments, shall be held by the Trustee in such accounts as part of
the Trust Estate as herein provided, subject to withdrawal by the Trustee in
accordance with, and for the purposes specified in the provisions of, this
Indenture.
(b) The Trustee shall hold in trust but shall not be required to
deposit in any account specified in Section 3.01(a) any payment received by it
until such time as the Trustee shall have identified to its reasonable
satisfaction the nature of such payment and, on the basis thereof, the proper
account or accounts into which such payment is to be deposited. In determining
into which of the accounts, if any, referred to above any amount received by the
Trustee is to be deposited, the Trustee may conclusively rely (in the absence of
bad faith on the part of the Trustee) on the advice of the Servicer. Unless the
Trustee is advised differently in writing by the Lessee making the payment or by
the Servicer in writing (with the Servicer's instruction controlling), the
Trustee shall assume that any amount remitted to it by such Lessee is to be
deposited into the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.03. The Trustee may
establish from time to time such deadline or deadlines as it shall determine are
reasonable or necessary in the administration of the Trust Estate after which
all amounts received or collected by the Trustee on any day shall not be deemed
to have been received or collected until the next succeeding Business Day.
(c) Neither the Servicer, Trustee nor the institution then acting as
Trustee shall have any right of set-off with respect to the Collection Account,
the Reserve Account, the Residual Account or the Liquidity Reserve Account, or
any investment therein.
42
(d) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, all or a portion of the amounts in the Trust Accounts, shall be
invested and reinvested by the Trustee pursuant to a Trust Order or Servicer
Order in one or more Eligible Investments. Subject to the restrictions on the
maturity of investments set forth in Section 3.01(f), each such Trust Order or
Servicer Order may authorize the Trustee to make the specific Eligible
Investments set forth therein, to make Eligible Investments from time to time
consistent with the general instructions set forth therein, or to make specific
Eligible Investments pursuant to instructions received in writing or by
telegraph or facsimile transmission from the employees or agents of the Issuer
or the Servicer, as the case may be, identified therein, in each case in such
amounts as such Trust Order or Servicer Order shall specify. The Issuer agrees
to report as income for financial reporting and tax purposes (to the extent
reportable) all investment earnings on amounts in the Collection Account, the
Reserve Account, the Residual Account, or the Liquidity Reserve Account. Each of
the Issuer and the Servicer agrees to give appropriate and timely investment
directions to the Trustee so that there will not be more than two Business Days
in any one calendar year at the end of which funds in the Trust Accounts are not
invested, directly or indirectly, pursuant to a Trust Order or a Servicer Order
in Eligible Investments that mature on or after the opening of business on the
next Business Day.
(e) In the event that either (i) the Issuer or the Servicer, as the
case may be, shall have failed to give investment directions to the Trustee by
9:30 A.M., New York City time on any Business Day on which there may be
uninvested cash or (ii) an Event of Default shall be continuing, the Trustee
shall promptly invest and reinvest the funds then in the Collection Account, the
Reserve Account, the Residual Account or the Liquidity Reserve Account, as the
case may be, to the fullest extent practicable in one or more Eligible
Investments. All investments made by the Trustee shall mature no later than the
maturity date therefore permitted by Section 3.01(f) unless the Trustee shall
have received written confirmation from each Rating Agency, that the liquidation
of such Eligible Investments prior to their respective maturity dates, will not
result in the reduction or withdrawal of such Rating Agency's then-current
rating of the Notes.
(f) Unless payable on demand, no investment of any amount held in
the Trust Accounts shall mature later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the Payment Date which is scheduled to occur immediately following the
date of investment. All income or other gains (net of losses) from the
investment of moneys deposited in the Trust Accounts shall be deposited by the
Trustee in such account immediately upon receipt.
(g) Any investment of any funds in the Trust Accounts and any sale
of any investment held in such accounts, shall be made under the following terms
and conditions:
(i) each such investment shall be made in the name of the Trustee or
in the name of a nominee of the Trustee, in each case in such manner as shall be
necessary to maintain the identity of such investments as assets of the Trust
Estate;
43
(ii) any certificate or other instrument evidencing such investment
shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent and the Trustee shall
have sole possession of such instrument, and all income on such investment; and
(iii) the proceeds of any sale of an investment shall be remitted by
the purchaser thereof directly to the Trustee for deposit in the account in
which such investment was held.
(h) If any amounts are needed for disbursement from the Trust
Accounts and sufficient uninvested funds are not collected and available therein
to make such disbursement, in the absence of a Trust Order or Servicer Order for
the liquidation of investments held therein in an amount sufficient to provide
the required funds, the Trustee shall select and cause to be sold or otherwise
converted to cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such accounts.
(i) The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any
insufficiency in the Trust Accounts resulting from losses on investments made in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.01 (but the institution serving
as Trustee shall at all times remain liable for its own debt obligations, if
any, constituting part of such investments). The Trustee shall not be liable for
any investment made by it in accordance with this Section 3.01 on the grounds
that it could have made a more favorable investment or a more favorable
selection for sale of an investment.
SECTION 3.02. Collection of Moneys.
(a) On or before the Issuance Date, the Servicer shall designate an
address for the receipt directly from Lessees of all Lease Payments, Casualty
Payments and Termination Payments on or in respect of each Lease (which payments
may be aggregated by the Lessee paying the same with Other Lease Payments and
which designated address may be the same designated address to which such Other
Lease Payments may be sent). The Servicer shall, within two Business Days of
receipt of any payment at such designated address, deposit such payment
(excluding Residual Realizations) in the Collection Account and Residual
Realizations in the Residual Account. All Lease Payments, Casualty Payments,
Termination Payments and other payments relating to a Lease received at such
designated address and so deposited shall constitute part of the Trust Estate.
Any Other Lease Payments from time to time received at such designated address
or otherwise received by the Servicer or deposited in the Collection Account
shall not constitute part of the Trust Estate.
(b) The Trustee shall from time to time, in accordance with
instructions of the Servicer, withdraw from the Collection Account any amounts
in the Collection Account which the Servicer advises the Trustee are Other Lease
Payments. Prior to such payment, the Trustee shall have rights to and an
interest in such amounts to the extent (but only to the extent) it is determined
that such amounts actually constitute Transaction Payment Amounts.
44
(c) If at any time the Issuer shall receive any payment on or in
respect of any Lease, it shall hold such Payment in trust for the benefit of the
Trustee and the holders of the Notes, shall segregate such payment from the
other property of the Issuer, and shall, promptly (but in no event later than
the next following Business Day) upon receipt, deliver such payment in the form
received to the Trustee.
SECTION 3.03. Collection Account; Payments.
(a) The Servicer shall within two Business Days of receipt (a
"Required Deposit Date") deposit the following funds, as received, into the
Collection Account:
(i) Lease Payments (net of any Excess Copy Charges, Maintenance

the Reserve Account;
(vi) Casualty Payments (other than Residual Casualty Payments);
(vii) Servicer Advances;
(viii) Termination Payments (other than Residual Prepayments) to the
extent the Issuer does not reinvest such Termination Payments in Additional
Leases; and
(ix) payments from the Transferor to effect a redemption of the
Notes pursuant to Section 2.01(b).
(b) Unless the Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to
Section 6.02 and moneys collected by the Trustee are being applied in accordance
with Section 6.06, Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Account and the
amounts, if any, deposited into the Collection Account from the Reserve Account
in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.05 shall be withdrawn by the
Servicer on or before each Payment Date from the Collection Account, in the
amounts required, for application in the following order of priority, to make

amounts on such Payment Date. If at any time any amount or portion thereof
previously distributed pursuant to this Section 3.03(c) shall have been
recovered, or shall be subject to recovery, in any proceeding with respect to
the Issuer or otherwise, then for purposes of determining future distributions
pursuant to this Section 3.03(c) such amount or portion thereof shall be deemed

57
(i) such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the
Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;
(ii) the holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the then Outstanding
Principal Amount of the Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as
Trustee hereunder;

adequate indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
compliance with such request;
(iv) the Trustee for 30 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and
(v) so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding, no direction
inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such
30-day period by the holders of 66-2/3% of the then Outstanding Principal Amount
of the Notes;
it being understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders shall have any
right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of
this Indenture to affect, disturb, or prejudice the rights of any other
Noteholders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the
manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the
Noteholders. It is further understood and intended that so long as any portion
of the Notes remains Outstanding, Copelco shall not have any right to institute
any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture (other
than for the enforcement of Sections 3.03(b), 3.04(b), 3.05, 3.06, 4.01 and 4.02
hereof) or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee (including, without
limitation, a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code), or for any other remedy
hereunder. Nothing in this Section 6.07 shall be construed as limiting the
rights of otherwise qualified Noteholders to petition a court for the removal of
a Trustee pursuant to Section 7.09(h) hereof.
SECTION 6.08. Unconditional Right of Noteholders to Receive
Principal and Interest.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, other than

recoveries from the property of the Trust Estate, the holder of any Note shall
have the absolute and unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of

SECTION 6.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.
If the Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to
the Trustee or to such
58
Noteholder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter
all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Noteholders continue as though no
such proceeding had been instituted.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Notes in Section 2.04 (f), no
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the
Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every
right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any
right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.
SECTION 6.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.
No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any Note to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any
such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an
acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to
the Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the
case may be.
SECTION 6.12. Control by Noteholders.
Except as may otherwise be provided in this Indenture, until such
time as the conditions specified in Sections 10.01(i) and (ii) have been
satisfied in full, the holders of 66-2/3% of the then Outstanding Principal
Amount of the Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising
any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) no such direction shall be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture;
(ii) the Trustee shall not be required to follow any such direction
which the Trustee reasonably believes might result in any personal liability on
the part of the Trustee for which the Trustee is not adequately indemnified; and
(iii) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with any such direction; provided that the
Trustee shall give notice of any such action to each Noteholder.

SECTION 6.13. Residual Notes Events of Default.
(a) Upon a default in making of Principal Payments at the Stated
Maturity of the relevant Class R Notes or Interest Payments on the Class R Notes
when such become due and payable (a "Residual Event of Default"), the unpaid
principal amount of the Class R Notes shall automatically become due and payable
at par together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
waived by the Issuer.
(b) At any time after such a Residual Event of Default has occurred
and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained
by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the holders of Class R
Notes evidencing 66-2/3% of the then Outstanding Principal Amount of the Class R
Notes by written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul
such declaration and its consequences if the Issuer has paid or deposited with
the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all Principal Payments on the Class R Notes
which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and
interest thereon from the date when the same first became due until the date of
payment or deposit at the appropriate Note Interest Rate all Interest Payments
due with respect to any Class R Notes and, to the extent that payment of such
interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest from the date when the same
first became due until the date of payment or deposit at a rate per annum equal
to the appropriate Note Interest Rates, and all sums paid or advanced by the
Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements, and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. No such rescission shall affect
any subsequent Residual Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
(c) If a Residual Event of Default occurs and is continuing of which
a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, the Trustee shall immediately give
notice to each Noteholder as set forth in Section 7.02. Following any
acceleration of the Class R Notes, the Trustee shall have all of the rights,
powers and remedies with respect to the Residual Realizations as are available
to secured parties under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law.
Such rights, powers and remedies may be exercised by the Trustee in its own name
as trustee of an express trust. If a Residual Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal
and interest remaining unpaid. In exercising its rights and obligations under
this Section 6.13, the Trustee may sell the rights to receive Residual
Realizations to a third party. Neither the Trustee nor any Class R Noteholder
shall have any rights against the Issuer other than to sell the Residual
Realizations.
(d) Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article
following a sale of rights to Residual Realizations following a Residual Event
of Default, and any moneys that may then be held or thereafter received by the
Trustee for the benefit of the Class R Notes or otherwise available in the
Residual Account or the Liquidity Reserve Account shall be applied in the
following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee, upon presentation of
the Class R Notes and surrender thereof:
60
first--to the payment of all costs and expenses of collection
incurred by the Trustee and the Class R Noteholders (including the
reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel to the Trustee and the
Noteholders);
second--if the person then acting as Servicer under the Assignment
and Servicing Agreement is not Copelco Capital or an Affiliate of Copelco
Capital, to the payment of all Residual Servicer's Fees then due to such
person;
third--first to the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the
Outstanding Class X-0 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, second to the payment of all
accrued and unpaid interest on the Outstanding Class R-2 Principal Amount,
third to the payment of the Outstanding Class R-1 Principal Amount and
fourth to the payment of the Outstanding Class R-2 Principal Amount;
fourth--to the payment of amounts then due the Trustee hereunder;
fifth--if the person then acting as Servicer is Copelco Capital or an
Affiliate of Copelco Capital, to the payment of all Residual Servicer's
Fees then due to such Person; and
sixth--to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Issuer or any
other Person legally entitled thereto.
SECTION 6.14. Undertaking for Costs.
All parties to this Indenture agree (and each holder of any Note by
its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed) that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such
suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in
its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and
good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the
provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the
Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders,
holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the then Outstanding Principal Amount
of the Notes, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of
the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the
Maturities for such payments, including the Stated Maturity as applicable.
SECTION 6.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.
The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that
it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim
or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law
and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or
61
impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer
and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been
enacted.
SECTION 6.16. Sale of Trust Estate.
(a) The power to effect any sale of any portion of the Trust Estate
described pursuant to Section 6.03 shall not be exhausted by any one or more
sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate remaining unsold, but shall continue
unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts
payable on the Notes shall have been paid. The Trustee may from time to time,
upon directions in accordance with Section 6.12, postpone any public sale by
public announcement made at the time and place of such sale. For any public sale
of the Trust Estate, the Trustee shall have provided each Noteholder with notice
of such sale at least two weeks in advance of such sale which notice shall
specify the date, time and location of such sale.
(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee shall not
in any private sale sell to a third party the Trust Estate, or any portion
thereof unless,
(i) until such time as the conditions specified in Sections
10.01(a)(i) and (ii) have been satisfied in full, the holders of 66-2/3% of the
then Outstanding Principal Amount of each Class of the Notes voting separately
consent to or direct the Trustee in writing to make such sale; or
(ii) the proceeds of such sale would be not less than the sum of all
amounts due to the Trustee hereunder and the entire unpaid principal amount of
the Notes and interest due or to become due thereon in accordance with Section
6.06 on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such sale.
The foregoing provisions shall not preclude or limit the ability of the Trustee
to purchase all or any portion of the Trust Estate at a private sale.
(c) In connection with a sale of all or any portion of the Trust
Estate:
(i) any one or more Noteholders may bid for and purchase the
property offered for sale, and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold,
retain, and possess and dispose of such property, without further
accountability, and any Noteholder may, in paying the purchase money therefore,
deliver in lieu of cash any Outstanding Notes or claims for interest thereon for
credit in the amount that shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such
sale, be payable thereon, and the Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon
shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Noteholders
after being appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;
(ii) the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument
of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in
connection with a sale thereof;
62
(iii) the Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and
attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any
portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a sale thereof, and to take all
action necessary to effect such sale; and
(iv) no purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to
ascertain the Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any
conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.
(d) The method, manner, time, place and terms of any sale of all or
any portion of the Trust Estate shall be commercially reasonable.
(e) The provisions of this Section 6.16 shall not be construed to
restrict the ability of the Trustee to exercise any rights and powers against
the Issuer or the Trust Estate that are vested in the Trustee by this Indenture,
including, without limitation, the power of the Trustee to proceed against the
collateral subject to the lien of this Indenture and to institute judicial
proceedings for the collection of any deficiency remaining thereafter.

particular act is to be performed, the Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
obligations shall be exercised and performed by such co-trustee or separate
trustee.
(iii) The Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed
by it, with the concurrence of the Issuer evidenced by a Trust Order, may accept

this Section, and, in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such
co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of the Issuer. Upon the
written request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall join with the Trustee in the
execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary
or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any
co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the
manner provided in this Section.

unsigned Class R-2 Note and the signed "power of attorney" in separate

R-2 Note.
