Certificate Rate for such Distribution Date and (iii) the Class B Invested
Amount as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Record Date.
On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date,

first Distribution Date, the Closing Date) to (but excluding) such Distribution
Date, and (ii) the Collateral Invested Amount as of the close of business on the
last day of the preceding Monthly Period; provided, however, with respect to the
first Distribution Date, Collateral Monthly Interest shall be equal to the
interest accrued on the Collateral Initial Invested Amount at the Collateral
Rate for the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the first
Distribution Date.

the Servicer shall determine an amount (the "Collateral Interest Shortfall")
equal to (x) the aggregate Collateral Monthly Interest for such Distribution
Date minus (y) the aggregate amount of funds allocated and available to pay such
Collateral Monthly Interest on such Distribution Date. If the Collateral
Interest Shortfall with respect to any Distribution Date is greater than zero,
on each subsequent Distribution Date until such Collateral Interest Shortfall is
fully paid, an additional amount ("Collateral Additional Interest") shall be
payable as provided herein with respect to the Collateral Invested Amount equal

thereof which has not been paid to the Collateral Interest Holder).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Collateral Additional Interest
shall be payable or distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder only to the
extent permitted by applicable law.
Section 4.03. Principal Funding Account; Controlled
Accumulation Period.
(a) (i) The Servicer, for the benefit of the Series 2003-3
Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee, on
behalf of the Trust, an Eligible Deposit Account (the "Principal Funding
Account"), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited
therein
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 17
are held for the benefit of the Series 2003-3 Certificateholders. The
Principal Funding Account shall initially be established with The Bank of New
York.
(ii) At the written direction of the Servicer, funds on
deposit in the Principal Funding Account shall be invested by the Trustee in
Eligible Investments selected by the Servicer. All such Eligible Investments
shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2003-3
Certificateholders; provided that on each Distribution Date all interest and
other investment income (net of losses and investment expenses) ("Principal
Funding Account Investment Proceeds") on funds on deposit therein shall be
applied as set forth in paragraph (iii) below. Funds on deposit in the Principal
Funding Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so
that such funds will be available at the close of business on the Transfer Date
preceding the following Distribution Date. Unless the Servicer directs
otherwise, funds deposited in the Principal Funding Account on a Transfer Date
(which immediately precedes a Payment Date) upon the maturity of any Eligible
Investments are not required to be invested overnight. No such Eligible
Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided, however, that
the Trustee may sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible Investment
before its maturity, at the written direction of the Servicer, if such sale,
liquidation or disposal would not result in a loss of all or part of the
principal portion of such Eligible Investment or if, prior to the maturity of
such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal, interest
or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment.
(iii) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled
Accumulation Period, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to
withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and deposit into the Collection
Account all Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds then on deposit in the
Principal Funding Account and such Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds
shall be treated as a portion of Class A Available Funds and Class B Available
Funds.
(iv) Reinvested interest and other investment income on funds
deposited in the Principal Funding Account shall not be considered to be
principal amounts on deposit therein for purposes of this Supplement.
(b) (i) The Trustee shall possess all right, title and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Principal Funding
Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Principal Funding Account shall be
under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series
2003-3 Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Principal Funding Account ceases
to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf)
shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30 calendar
days, as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Principal
Funding Account meeting the conditions specified in paragraph (a)(i) above as an
Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such
new Principal Funding Account.
(ii) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in
subsection 3.01(b) of the Agreement, the Servicer shall have the power to make
withdrawals and payments or to instruct the Trustee to make withdrawals and
payments from the Principal Funding Account for the purposes of carrying out the
Servicer's or Trustee's duties hereunder. Pursuant to the authority granted to
the Paying Agent in Section 5.01 of this Supplement and Section 6.07 of the
Agreement, the Paying Agent shall have the power to withdraw funds from the
Principal Funding Account for the purpose of making distributions to the Series
2003-3 Certificateholders.
(c) The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to
commence at the close of business on the last day of the March 2007 Monthly
Period; provided, however, that if the Controlled Accumulation Period Length
(which shall be determined as described below) is less than 12 months, the date
on which the Controlled Accumulation Period actually commences will be delayed
to the close of business on the last day of the month preceding the month that
is the number of months prior to the
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 18
Expected Final Payment Date at least equal to the Controlled Accumulation Period
Length and, as a result, the number of Monthly Periods in the Controlled
Accumulation Period will at least equal the Controlled Accumulation Period
Length. On the Determination Date immediately preceding the March 2007
Distribution Date, and on each Determination Date thereafter that occurs prior
to the Determination Date occurring in the Monthly Period in which the
Controlled Accumulation Period commences, the Servicer will determine the
"Controlled Accumulation Period Length" which will equal the number of months
such that the sum of the Controlled Accumulation Period Factors for each month
during such period will be equal to or greater than the Required Accumulation
Factor Number; provided, however, that the Controlled Accumulation Period Length
shall not be less than one month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Controlled Accumulation Period Length shall have been determined to be less than
12 months and, after the date on which such determination is made, a Pay-Out
Event or Reinvestment Event (as those terms are defined in the Supplement for
such Series) shall occur with respect to any outstanding Principal Sharing
Series other than Series 2003-3, the Controlled Accumulation Period will
commence on the earlier of (i) the first day of the Monthly Period immediately
succeeding the date that such Pay-Out Event or Reinvestment Event shall have
occurred with respect to such Series and (ii) the date on which the Controlled
Accumulation Period is then scheduled to commence.
Section 4.04. Required Amount.
(a) With respect to each Distribution Date, on the related
Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount (the "Class A
Required Amount"), if any, by which (x) the sum of (i) Class A Monthly Interest
for such Distribution Date, (ii) any Class A Monthly Interest previously due but
not paid to the Class A Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, (iii)
any Class A Additional Interest for such Distribution Date and (iv) any Class A
Additional Interest previously due but not paid to the Class A
Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, (v) if TRS or an Affiliate of
TRS is no longer the Servicer, the Class A Servicing Fee for such Distribution
Date, (vi) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, any Class A
Servicing Fee previously due but not paid to the Servicer, and (vii) the Class A
Investor Default Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date exceeds (y) the
Class A Available Funds. In the event that the difference between (x) the Class
A Required Amount for such Distribution Date and (y) the amount of Excess Spread
and Excess Finance Charge Collections applied with respect thereto pursuant to
subsection 4.07(a) on such Distribution Date is greater than zero, the Servicer
shall give written notice to the Trustee of such excess Class A Required Amount
on the date of computation.
(b) With respect to each Distribution Date, on the related
Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the amount (the "Class B
Required Amount"), if any, equal to the sum of (x) the amount, if any, by which
(A) the sum of (i) Class B Monthly Interest for such Distribution Date, (ii) any
Class B Monthly Interest previously due but not paid to the Class B
Certificateholders, (iii) Class B Additional Interest, if any, for such
Distribution Date, (iv) any Class B Additional Interest previously due but not
paid to the Class B Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, (v) if TRS
or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the Servicer, the Class B Servicing Fee for
such Distribution Date and (vi) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the
Servicer, any Class B Servicing Fee previously due but not paid to the Servicer
exceeds (B) the Class B Available Funds and (y) the Class B Investor Default
Amount for such Distribution Date. In the event that the difference between (x)
the Class B Required Amount for such Distribution Date and (y) the amount of
Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections applied with respect thereto
pursuant to subsection 4.07(c) on such Distribution Date is greater than zero,
the Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee of such excess Class B
Required Amount on the date of computation.
Section 4.05. Application of Class a Available Funds, Class B
Available Funds, Collateral Available Funds and Available Principal Collections.
The Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Trustee to apply by written
instruction to the Trustee, on each Distribution Date, Class A Available Funds,
Class B Available Funds, Collateral Available Funds and Available Principal
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 19

(ii) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the
Servicer, an amount equal to the Class A Servicing Fee for
such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class A

the Servicer (unless such amount has been netted against
deposits to the Collection Account in accordance with Section
4.03 of the Agreement);
(iii) an amount equal to the Class A Investor Default
Amount for such Distribution Date shall be treated as a
portion of Available Principal Collections for such
Distribution Date; and

and shall be allocated and distributed or deposited as set
forth in Section 4.07.
(b) On each Distribution Date, an amount equal to the Class B
Available Funds with respect to such Distribution Date will be distributed or

Distribution Date and any Class B Additional Interest
previously due but not distributed to Class B
Certificateholders on a prior Distribution Date, shall be
distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class B
Certificateholders;
(ii) if TRS or an Affiliate of TRS is no longer the
Servicer, an amount equal to the Class B Servicing Fee for
such Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Class B

Servicer on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed to
the Servicer (unless such amount has been netted against

shall be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied
in accordance with Section 4.04 of the Agreement.
(e) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled
Accumulation Period, an amount equal to the Available Principal Collections

distributed in the following order of priority:
(i) an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Controlled
Deposit Amount and (y) the sum of the Class A Adjusted
Invested Amount and the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount shall
be deposited in the Principal Funding Account;
(ii) for each Distribution Date prior to the Distribution
Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid in full,
after giving effect to paragraph (i) above, an amount equal to
the balance, if any, of such Available Principal Collections
shall be paid to the Collateral Interest Holder for
application in accordance with the Loan Agreement to the
extent the Collateral Invested Amount exceeds the Required
Collateral Invested Amount;
(iii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the
Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount shall
have been paid in full, an amount up to the Collateral
Invested Amount shall be paid to the Collateral Interest
Holder for application in accordance with the Loan Agreement;
and

(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 21
(ii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the
Distribution Date on which the Class A Invested Amount is paid
in full, an amount up to the Class B Adjusted Invested Amount
on such Distribution Date shall be deposited in the Principal
Funding Account for distribution to the Class B
Certificateholders;
(iii) for each Distribution Date beginning on the
Distribution Date on which the Class B Invested Amount is paid

such Distribution Date shall be paid to the Collateral
Interest Holder for application in accordance with the Loan
Agreement; and
(iv) for each Distribution Date, after giving effect to
paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above, an amount equal to the
balance, if any, of such Available Principal Collections will
be treated as Shared Principal Collections and applied in
accordance with Section 4.04 of the Agreement.
Section 4.06. Defaulted Amounts; Investor Charge-Offs.
(a) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate
the Class A Investor Default Amount, if any, for the related Distribution Date.
If, on any Distribution Date, the Class A Required Amount for the related
Monthly Period exceeds the sum of (x) the amount of Reallocated Principal
Collections allocated to Series 2003-3 with respect to such Monthly Period and
(y) the amount of Excess Spread and the Excess Finance Charge Collections
allocable to Series 2003-3 with respect to such Monthly Period, the Collateral
Invested Amount, if any, will be reduced by the amount of such excess, but not
by more than the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date. In
the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral Invested Amount to be a
negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount will be reduced to zero and the
Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount by which the Collateral
Invested Amount would have been reduced below zero, but not by more than the
excess, if any, of the Class A Investor Default Amount for such Distribution
Date over the amount of such reduction, if any, of the Collateral Invested
Amount with respect to such Distribution Date. In the event that such reduction
would cause the Class B Invested Amount to be a negative number, the Class B
Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero, and the Class A Invested Amount shall
be reduced by the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount would have been
reduced below zero, but not by more than the excess, if any, of the Class A
Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date over the aggregate amount of
the reductions, if any, of the Collateral Invested Amount and the Class B
Invested Amount for such Distribution Date (a "Class A Investor Charge-Off").
Class A Investor Charge-Offs shall thereafter be reimbursed and the Class A
Invested Amount increased (but not by an amount in excess of the aggregate
unreimbursed Class A Investor Charge-Offs) on any Distribution Date by the
amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and
available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.07(b). References to
"negative numbers" above shall be determined without regard to the requirement
that the Invested Amount of a Class not be reduced below zero.
(b) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate
the Class B Investor Default Amount, if any, for the related Distribution Date.
If, on any Distribution Date, the Class B Required Amount for such Distribution
Date exceeds the sum of (x) the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance
Charge Collections allocated to Series 2003-3 with respect to the related
Monthly Period which are allocated and available to pay such amount pursuant to
subsection 4.07(c) and (y) the Reallocated Principal Collections allocable to
the Collateral Interest and not required to pay the Class A Required Amount with
respect to such Distribution Date, then the Collateral Invested Amount shall be
reduced by the amount of such excess. In the event that such reduction would
cause the Collateral Invested Amount to be a negative number, the Collateral
Invested Amount shall be reduced to zero, and the Class B Invested Amount shall
be reduced by the amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount would have been
reduced below zero, but not by more than the excess, if any, of the Class B
Investor Default Amount for such Distribution Date over the amount of such
reduction, if any, of the Collateral
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 22
Invested Amount with respect to such Distribution Date (a "Class B Investor
Charge-Off"). Class B Investor Charge-Offs shall thereafter be reimbursed and
the Class B Invested Amount increased (but not by an amount in excess of the
aggregate unreimbursed Class B Investor Charge-Offs) on any Distribution Date by
the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and
available for that purpose pursuant to subsection 4.07(e). References to
"negative numbers" above shall be determined without regard to the requirement
that the Invested Amount of a Class not be reduced below zero.
(c) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate
the Collateral Default Amount. If on any Distribution Date the Collateral
Default Amount for the previous Monthly Period exceeds the amount of Excess
Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 2003-3 with
respect to the related Monthly Period which are allocated and available to pay
such amount pursuant to subsection 4.07(h), the Collateral Invested Amount will
be reduced by the amount of such excess but not by more than the lesser of the
Collateral Default Amount and the Collateral Invested Amount for such
Distribution Date (a "Collateral Charge-Off"). The Collateral Invested Amount
will be reimbursed after any reduction pursuant to this Section 4.06 on any
Distribution Date by the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge
Collections allocated and available on such Distribution date for that purpose
as described under subsection 4.07(i).
Section 4.07. Excess Spread; Excess Finance Charge
Collections. The Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Trustee to apply by
written instruction to the Trustee, on each Distribution Date, Excess Spread and
Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to Series 2003-3 with respect to the
related Monthly Period, to make the following distributions or deposits in the
following order of priority:
(a) an amount equal to the Class A Required Amount, if any,
with respect to such Distribution Date shall be distributed by the Trustee to
fund the Class A Required Amount in accordance with, and in the priority set
forth in, subsections 4.05(a)(i), (ii) and (iii);
(b) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Class A
Investor Charge-Offs which have not been previously reimbursed shall be treated
as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;
(c) an amount equal to interest on the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of the Class B Certificates not otherwise distributed to the
Class B Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.05(b)(i), at a rate per annum
equal to the Class B Certificate Rate, shall be distributed to the Class B
Certificateholders, except that interest previously due but not paid will accrue
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Class B Certificate Rate plus 2% per
annum;
(d) an amount equal to the Class B Required Amount, if any,
with respect to such Distribution Date will be (i) used to fund the Class B
Required Amount and be applied in accordance with subsection 4.05(b)(ii), and
then (ii) an amount up to the Class B Investor Default Amount will be treated
and applied as Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date;
(e) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the Class
B Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the
definition of "Class B Invested Amount" in Section 2.01 of this Supplement (but
not in excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions which have not been
previously reimbursed) shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal
Collections for such Distribution Date;
(f) an amount equal to Collateral Monthly Interest for such
Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Monthly Interest previously
due but not distributed to the Collateral Interest Holder on a prior
Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Collateral Additional Interest for
such Distribution Date and any Collateral Additional Interest previously due but
not distributed to the
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 23
Collateral Interest Holder on a prior Distribution Date, shall be distributed
to the Collateral Interest Holder for application in accordance with the Loan
Agreement;
(g) an amount equal to the Monthly Servicing Fee for such
Distribution Date that has not been paid to the Servicer and any Monthly
Servicing Fee due but not paid to the Servicer on a prior Distribution Date
shall be paid to the Servicer;
(h) an amount equal to the Collateral Default Amount, if any,
for such Distribution Date shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal
Collections for such Distribution Date;
(i) an amount equal to the aggregate amount by which the
Collateral Invested Amount has been reduced pursuant to clauses (c), (d) and (e)
of the definition of "Collateral Invested Amount" (but not in excess of the
aggregate amount of such reductions which have not been previously reimbursed)
shall be treated as a portion of Available Principal Collections for such
Distribution Date;
(j) on each Distribution Date from and after the Reserve
Account Funding Date, but prior to the date on which the Reserve Account
terminates pursuant to subsection 4.12(f), an amount up to the excess, if any,
of the Required Reserve Account Amount over the Available Reserve Account Amount
shall be deposited into the Reserve Account;
(k) an amount equal to the aggregate of any other amounts then
required to be applied pursuant to the Loan Agreement (to the extent such
amounts are required to be applied pursuant to the Loan Agreement out of Excess
Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections) shall be distributed to the
Collateral Interest Holder for application in accordance with the Loan
Agreement; and
(l) the balance, if any, will constitute a portion of Excess
Finance Charge Collections for such Distribution Date and will be available for
allocation to other Series or to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates as
described in Section 4.05 of the Agreement.
Section 4.08. Reallocated Principal Collections. On each
Distribution Date, the Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Trustee to
apply, Reallocated Principal Collections with respect to such Distribution Date,
to make the following distributions or deposits in the following order of
priority:
(a) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Class A
Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date over (ii) the
amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to
Series 2003-3 with respect to the related Monthly Period shall be distributed by
the Trustee to fund any deficiency pursuant to and in the priority set forth in
subsections 4.05(a)(i), (ii) and (iii); and
(b) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Class B
Required Amount, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date over (ii) the
amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated and
available to the Class B Certificates pursuant to subsections 4.07(c) and (d) on
such Distribution Date shall be applied first to fund any deficiency pursuant to
subsections 4.05(b)(i) and (ii) and then to fund any deficiency pursuant to and
in the priority set forth in subsections 4.07(c) and (d).
On each Distribution Date, the Collateral Invested Amount
shall be reduced by the amount of Reallocated Principal Collections for such
Distribution Date. In the event that such reduction would cause the Collateral
Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Collateral Charge-Offs for such
Distribution Date) to be a negative number, the Collateral Invested Amount
(after giving effect to any Collateral Charge-Offs for such Distribution Date)
shall be reduced to zero and the Class B Invested Amount shall be reduced by the
amount by which the Collateral Invested Amount would have been reduced below
zero. In the event that the reallocation of Reallocated Principal Collections
would cause the Class B Invested Amount (after giving effect to any Class B
Investor Charge-Offs for such
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 24
Distribution Date) to be a negative number on any Distribution Date, Reallocated
Principal Collections shall be reallocated on such Distribution Date in an
aggregate amount not to exceed the amount which would cause the Class B Invested
Amount (after giving to any Class B Investor Charge-Offs for such Distribution
Date) to be reduced to zero. References to "negative numbers" above shall be
determined without regard to the requirement that the Invested Amount of a Class
not be reduced below zero.
Section 4.09. Excess Finance Charge Collections. Series 2003-3
shall be an Excess Allocation Series. Subject to Section 4.05 of the Agreement,
Excess Finance Charge Collections with respect to the Excess Allocation Series
for any Distribution Date will be allocated to Series 2003-3 in an amount equal
to the product of (x) the aggregate amount of Excess Finance Charge Collections
with respect to all the Excess Allocation Series for such Distribution Date and
(y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Finance Charge Shortfall for
Series 2003-3 for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the
aggregate amount of Finance Charge Shortfalls for all the Excess Allocation
Series for such Distribution Date. The "Finance Charge Shortfall" for Series
2003-3 for any Distribution Date will be equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the
full amount required to be paid, without duplication, pursuant to subsections
4.05(a), 4.05(b) and 4.05(c) and subsections 4.07(a) through (k) on such
Distribution Date over (b) the sum of (i) the Reallocated Investor Finance
Charge Collections, (ii) if such Monthly Period relates to a Distribution Date
with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period or Early Amortization Period,
the amount of Principal Funding Account Investment Proceeds, if any, with
respect to such Distribution Date and (iii) the amount of funds, if any, to be
withdrawn from the Reserve Account which, pursuant to subsection 4.12(d), are
required to be included in Class A Available Funds with respect to such
Distribution Date.
Section 4.10. Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections.
(a) That portion of Group II Investor Finance Charge
Collections for any Distribution Date equal to the amount of Reallocated
Investor Finance Charge Collections for such Distribution Date will be allocated
to Series 2003-3 and will be distributed as set forth in this Supplement.
(b) Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections with
respect to any Distribution Date shall equal the sum of (i) the aggregate amount
of Series 2003-3 Monthly Interest, Investor Default Amount, Series 2003-3
Monthly Fees and Series 2003-3 Additional Amounts for such Distribution Date and
(ii) that portion of excess Group II Investor Finance Charge Collections to be
included in Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections pursuant to
subsection (c) hereof; provided, however, that if the amount of Group II
Investor Finance Charge Collections for such Distribution Date is less than the
sum of (w) Group II Investor Monthly Interest, (x) Group II Investor Default
Amount, (y) Group II Investor Monthly Fees and (z) Group II Investor Additional
Amounts, then Reallocated Investor Finance Charge Collections shall equal the
sum of the following amounts for such Distribution Date:
(A) The product of (I) Group II Investor Finance Charge
Collections (up to the amount of Group II Investor Monthly
Interest) and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is
Series 2003-3 Monthly Interest and the denominator of which is
Group II Investor Monthly Interest;
(B) the product of (I) Group II Investor Finance Charge
Collections less the amount of Group II Investor Monthly
Interest (up to the Group II Investor Default Amount) and (II)
a fraction, the numerator of which is the Investor Default
Amount and the denominator of which is the Group II Investor
Default Amount;
(C) the product of (I) Group II Investor Finance Charge
Collections less the amount of Group II Investor Monthly
Interest and the Group II Investor Default Amount (up to Group
II Investor Monthly Fees) and (II) a fraction, the numerator
of which is
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 25
Series 2003-3 Monthly Fees and the denominator of which is
Group II Investor Monthly Fees; and
(D) the product of (I) Group II Investor Finance Charge
Collections less the sum of (i) Group II Investor Monthly
Interest, (ii) the Group II Investor Default Amount and (iii)
Group II Investor Monthly Fees and (II) a fraction, the
numerator of which is Series 2003-3 Additional Amounts and the
denominator of which is Group II Investor Additional Amounts.
(c) If the amount of Group II Investor Finance Charge
Collections for such Distribution Date exceeds the sum of (i) Group II Investor
Monthly Interest, (ii) Group II Investor Default Amount, (iii) Group II Investor
Monthly Fees and (iv) Group II Investor Additional Amounts, then Reallocated
Investor Finance Charge Collections for such Distribution Date shall include an
amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such excess and (y) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Invested Amount as of the last day of the second
preceding Monthly Period (or, for Series 2003-3 only, with respect to the first
Distribution Date, as of the Closing Date) and the denominator of which is the
sum of such Invested Amount and the aggregate invested amounts for all other
Series included in Group II as of such last day (or, for Series 2003-3 only,
with respect to the first Distribution Date, as of the Closing Date).
Section 4.11. Shared Principal Collections. Subject to Section
4.04 of the Agreement, Shared Principal Collections for any Distribution Date
will be allocated to Series 2003-3 in an amount equal to the product of (x) the
aggregate amount of Shared Principal Collections with respect to all Principal
Sharing Series for such Distribution Date and (y) a fraction, the numerator of
which is the Series 2003-3 Principal Shortfall for such Distribution Date and
the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls for all
the Series which are Principal Sharing Series for such Distribution Date. The
"Series 2003-3 Principal Shortfall" will be equal to (a) for any Distribution
Date with respect to the Revolving Period, zero, (b) for any Distribution Date
with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period, the excess, if any, of the
Controlled Deposit Amount with respect to such Distribution Date over the amount
of Available Principal Collections for such Distribution Date (excluding any
portion thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections), and (c) for any
Distribution Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, the excess, if
any, of the Invested Amount over the amount of Available Principal Collections
for such Distribution Date (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Shared
Principal Collections).
Section 4.12. Reserve Account.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, in the name of
the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, for the benefit of the Class A
Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder, an Eligible Deposit
Account (the "Reserve Account") bearing a designation clearly indicating that
the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Class A
Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder. The Reserve Account shall
initially be established with The Bank of New York. The Trustee shall possess
all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the
Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Reserve Account shall be under
the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Class A
Certificateholders and the Collateral Interest Holder. If at any time the
Reserve Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee (or the
Servicer on its behalf) shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period,
not to exceed 30 calendar days, as to which each Rating Agency shall consent)
establish a new Reserve Account meeting the conditions specified above as an
Eligible Deposit Account, and shall transfer any cash or any investments to such
new Reserve Account. The Trustee, at the direction of the Servicer, shall (i)
make withdrawals from the Reserve Account from time to time in an amount up to
the Available Reserve Account Amount at such time, for the purposes set forth in
this Supplement, and (ii) on each Distribution Date (from and after the Reserve
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 26
Account Funding Date) prior to the termination of the Reserve Account make a
deposit into the Reserve Account in the amount specified in, and otherwise in
accordance with, subsection 4.07(j).
(b) Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be invested
at the written direction of the Servicer by the Trustee in Eligible Investments.
Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Transfer Date, after giving
effect to any withdrawals from the Reserve Account on such Transfer Date, shall
be invested in such investments that will mature so that such funds will be
available for withdrawal on or prior to the following Transfer Date. No such
Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity; provided,
however, that the Trustee may sell, liquidate or dispose of any such Eligible
Investment before its maturity, at the written direction of the Servicer, if
such sale, liquidation or disposal would not result in a loss of all or part of
the principal portion of such Eligible Investment or if, prior to the maturity
of such Eligible Investment, a default occurs in the payment of principal,
interest or any other amount with respect to such Eligible Investment. On each
Distribution Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment
expenses) accrued since the preceding Distribution Date on funds on deposit in
the Reserve Account shall be retained in the Reserve Account (to the extent that
the Available Reserve Account Amount is less than the Required Reserve Account
Amount) and the balance, if any, shall be deposited in the Collection Account
and treated as collections of Finance Charge Receivables allocable to Series
2003-3. For purposes of determining the availability of funds or the balance in
the Reserve Account for any reason under this Supplement, except as otherwise
provided in the preceding sentence, investment earnings on such funds shall be
deemed not to be available or on deposit.
(c) On the Determination Date preceding each Distribution Date
with respect to the Controlled Accumulation Period and the first Special Payment
Date, the Servicer shall calculate the "Reserve Draw Amount" which shall be
equal to the excess, if any, of the Covered Amount with respect to such
Distribution Date or Special Payment Date over the Principal Funding Account
Investment Proceeds with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment
Date; provided, that such amount will be reduced to the extent that funds
otherwise would be available for deposit in the Reserve Account under subsection
4.07(j) with respect to such Distribution Date or Special Payment Date.
(d) In the event that for any Distribution Date the Reserve
Draw Amount is greater than zero, the Reserve Draw Amount, up to the Available
Reserve Account Amount, shall be withdrawn from the Reserve Account on the
related Transfer Date by the Trustee (acting in accordance with the instructions
of the Servicer), deposited into the Collection Account and included in Class A
Available Funds for such Distribution Date.
(e) In the event that the Reserve Account Surplus on any
Distribution Date, after giving effect to all deposits to and withdrawals from
the Reserve Account with respect to such Distribution Date, is greater than
zero, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the written instructions of the
Servicer, shall withdraw from the Reserve Account, and pay to the Collateral
Interest Holder for application in accordance with the Loan Agreement, an amount
equal to such Reserve Account Surplus.
(f) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the day on which the
Invested Amount is paid in full to the Series 2003-3 Certificateholders, (ii) if
the Controlled Accumulation Period has not commenced, the occurrence of a
Pay-Out Event with respect to Series 2003-3, (iii) if the Controlled
Accumulation Period has commenced, the earlier of the first Special Payment Date
and the Expected Final Payment Date and (iv) the termination of the Trust
pursuant to the Agreement, the Trustee, acting in accordance with the
instructions of the Servicer, after the prior payment of all amounts owing to
the Class A Certificateholders which are payable from the Reserve Account as
provided herein, shall withdraw from the Reserve Account and pay to the
Collateral Interest Holder for application in accordance with the Loan Agreement
all amounts, if any, on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Reserve Account
shall be deemed to have terminated for purposes of this Supplement.
Section 4.13. Investment Instructions.
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 27
(a) Any investment instructions required to be given to the
Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given to the Trustee no later than
10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the date such investment is to be made. In
the event the Trustee receives such investment instruction later than such time,
the Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the
event the Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment
instruction received by the Trustee after 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) on
such day, such investment shall be made by the Trustee on the next succeeding
Business Day. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any investment not
made pursuant to investment instructions received after 10:30 a.m. (New York
City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made.
(b) The Trustee shall hold each Eligible Investment that
constitutes investment property through a securities intermediary, which
securities intermediary shall agree with the Trustee that (i) such investment
property at all times shall be credited to a securities account of the Trustee,
(ii) all property credited to such securities account shall be treated as a
financial asset, (iii) such securities intermediary shall treat the Trustee as
entitled to exercise the rights that comprise each financial asset credited to
such securities account, (iv) such securities intermediary shall comply with
entitlement orders originated by the Trustee without the further consent of any
other person or entity, (v) such securities intermediary shall not agree with
any person or entity other than the Trustee to comply with entitlement orders
originated by any person or entity other than the Trustee, (vi) such securities
account and all property credited thereto shall not be subject to any lien,
security interest, right of set-off, or encumbrance in favor of such securities
intermediary or anyone claiming through such securities intermediary (other than
the Trustee), (vii) such agreement between such securities intermediary and the
Trustee shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, and (viii) such
securities intermediary's jurisdiction for purposes of the Uniform Commercial
Code shall be the State of New York. The Trustee shall maintain possession of
each other Eligible Investment in the State of New York, separate and apart from
all other property held by the Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Supplement, the Trustee shall not hold any Eligible Investment through an
agent except as expressly permitted by this Section 4.13(b). Each term used in
this Section 4.13(b) and defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code shall
have the meaning set forth in the New York Uniform Commercial Code.
Section 4.14. Determination of Libor.
(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Trustee will
determine LIBOR for the related Interest Accrual Period, which shall be the rate
for deposits in United States dollars for a period equal to one month
(commencing on the first day of such Interest Accrual Period) that appears on
Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. Upon such
determination, the Trustee shall notify the Servicer of LIBOR for such LIBOR
Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the rate
for the LIBOR Determination Date will be determined on the basis of the rates at
which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in the London
interbank market for a period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of
such Interest Accrual Period). The Servicer will request the principal London
office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at
least two such quotations are provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination
Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations
are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date will be
the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City,
selected by the Servicer, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on
that day for loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a
period equal to one month (commencing on the first day of such Interest Accrual
Period). If the banks selected by the Servicer are not quoting rates as provided
in the immediately preceding sentence, LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period
will be LIBOR in effect for the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Period.
(b) The Servicer shall determine, and promptly notify the
Trustee of, the Class A Certificate Rate and the Class B Certificate Rate for
the applicable Interest Accrual Period. The Class A
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 28
Certificate Rate and Class B Certificate Rate applicable to the then current and
the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Periods may be obtained by any
Investor Certificateholder by telephoning the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office at (000) 000-0000.
(c) On each LIBOR Determination Date prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, the
Trustee shall send to the Servicer by facsimile, notification of LIBOR for the
following Interest Accrual Period.

respect to a final distribution, distributions to Series 2003-3
Certificateholders hereunder shall be made by check mailed to each Series 2003-3

or before the date occurring five Business Days after the date such payment or
deposit is required to be made therein or herein or (ii) duly to observe or
perform any other covenants or agreements of the Transferors set forth in the

60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure,
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 30
requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to such Transferor by
the Trustee, or to the Transferors and the Trustee by any Holder of the Series

Section 2.01 or subsection 2.08(f) of the Agreement shall prove to have been
incorrect in any material respect when made or when delivered, which continues

on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied,
shall have been given to such Transferor by the Trustee, or to such Transferor
and the Trustee by any Holder of the Series 2003-3 Certificates and as a result
of which the interests of the Series 2003-3 Certificateholders are materially

pursuant to this subsection 6.01(d) shall not be deemed to have occurred
hereunder if a Transferor has accepted reassignment of the related Receivable,
or all of such Receivables, if applicable, during such period (or such longer

accordance with the provisions of the Agreement;
(e) a failure by a Transferor to convey Receivables in

ARTICLE VII
Optional Repurchase; Series Termination
Section 7.01. Optional Repurchase.
(a) So long as a Transferor is the Servicer or an Affiliate of
the Servicer, on any day occurring on or after the date on which the Invested
Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the Initial Invested Amount, such Transferor
shall have the option to purchase the Series 2003-3 Certificateholders'
Interest, at a purchase price equal to (i) if such day is a Distribution Date,
the Reassignment Amount for such Distribution Date or (ii) if such day is not a
Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for the Distribution Date following
such day. If, on the date on which a Transferor exercises such option, the
long-term unsecured debt obligations of either Transferor purchasing the Series
2003-3 Certificateholders' Interest is not rated at least in the third highest
rating category by the Rating Agency,
(Series 2003-3 Supplement) 31
such Transferor shall deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Rating Agency,
an Officer's Certificate which shall have attached to it the relevant fraudulent
conveyance statute, if any, and set forth the factual basis for a conclusion
that the exercise of such optional repurchase would not constitute a fraudulent
conveyance of such Transferor.
(b) The Transferors shall give the Servicer and the Trustee at
least 30 days prior written notice of the date on which the Transferors intend
to exercise such purchase option. Not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time,
on such day the Transferors shall deposit the Reassignment Amount into the
Collection Account in immediately available funds. Such purchase option is
subject to payment in full of the Reassignment Amount. Following the deposit of
the Reassignment Amount into the Collection Amount in accordance with the
foregoing, the Invested Amount for Series 2003-3 shall be reduced to zero and
the Series 2003-3 Certificateholders shall have no further interest in the
Receivables. The Reassignment Amount shall be distributed as set forth in
subsection 8.01(b).
Section 7.02. Series Termination.
(a) If, on the September 2010 Distribution Date, the Invested
Amount (after giving effect to all changes therein on such date) would be
greater than zero, the Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, within the
40-day period which begins on such Distribution Date, solicit bids for the sale
of Principal Receivables and the related Finance Charge Receivables (or
interests therein) in an amount equal to the Invested Amount at the close of
business on the last day of the Monthly Period preceding the Series 2003-3
Termination Date (after giving effect to all distributions required to be made
on the Series 2003-3 Termination Date, except pursuant to this Section 7.02).
Such bids shall require that such sale shall (subject to subsection 7.02(b))
occur on the Series 2003-3 Termination Date. The Transferors and the Collateral
Interest Holder shall be entitled to participate in, and to receive from the
Trustee a copy of each other bid submitted in connection with, such bidding
process. Each Transferor and its Affiliates shall be permitted to bid for the
Receivables and, in addition, shall have the right to match any bid and to
purchase the Receivables at such matched price if such matched price shall be
the highest bid price received by the Trustee.
(b) The Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall sell such
Receivables (or interests therein) on the Series 2003-3 Termination Date to the
bidder who made the highest cash purchase offer. The proceeds of any such sale
shall be treated as Collections on the Receivables allocated to the Series
2003-3 Certificateholders pursuant to the Agreement and this Supplement;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall determine conclusively the amount of
such proceeds which are allocable to Finance Charge Receivables and the amount
of such proceeds which are allocable to Principal Receivables. During the period
from the September 2010 Distribution Date to the Series 2003-3 Termination Date,
the Servicer shall continue to collect payments on the Receivables and allocate
and deposit such Collections in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement
and the Supplements.

This certifies that CEDE & CO. (the "Class A Certificateholder") is the
registered owner of a fractional undivided interest in certain assets of a trust
(the "Trust") created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as
of May 16, 1996 (as amended and supplemented, the "Agreement"), as supplemented
by the Series 2003-3 Supplement, dated as of May 7, 2003 (as amended and

Certificates and the Collateral Interest to the extent provided in the
Supplement. Although a summary of certain provisions of the Agreement and the
Supplement is set forth below and in the Summary of Terms and Conditions
attached hereto and made a part hereof, this Class A Certificate does not
purport to summarize the Agreement and the Supplement and reference is made to
the Agreement and the Supplement for information with respect to the interests,
rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds and duties evidenced hereby and the
rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee. A copy of the Agreement and the

capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Agreement or the Supplement, as applicable.
This Class A Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement and the Supplement, to which
Agreement and Supplement, each as amended and supplemented from time to time,
the Class A Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and is
bound.
It is the intent of the Transferors and the Class A
Certificateholder that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax
purposes, the Class A Certificates will qualify as indebtedness of the
Transferors secured by the Receivables. The Class A Certificateholder, by the
acceptance of this Class A Certificate, agrees to treat this Class A Certificate
for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as debt of the
Transferors.
In general, payments of principal with respect to the Class A
Certificates are limited to the Class A Invested Amount, which may be less than
the unpaid principal balance of the Class A Certificates. The Expected Final
Payment Date is the April 2008 Distribution Date, but principal with respect to
the Class A Certificates may be paid earlier or later under certain
circumstances described in the Agreement and the Supplement. If for one or more
months during the Controlled Accumulation Period there are not sufficient funds
to pay the Controlled Deposit Amount, then to the extent that excess funds are
not available on subsequent Distribution Dates with respect to the Controlled
Accumulation Period to make up for such shortfalls, the final payment of
principal of the Class A Certificates will occur later than the Expected Final
Payment Date.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by or on behalf of the Trustee, by manual signature, this Class A
Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or the
Supplement or be valid for any purpose.

AMERICAN EXPRESS CREDIT ACCOUNT MASTER TRUST
SERIES 2003-3
CLASS A FLOATING RATE ASSET BACKED CERTIFICATE
Summary of Terms and Conditions
The Receivables consist of Principal Receivables which arise
generally from the purchase of goods and services and amounts advanced to
cardmembers as cash advances and Finance Charge Receivables. This Class A
Certificate is one of a Series of Certificates entitled American Express Credit
Account Master Trust, Series 2003-3 (the "Series 2003-3 Certificates"), and one
of a class thereof entitled Class A Series 2003-3 Floating Rate Asset Backed
Certificates (the "Class A Certificates"), each of which represents a
fractional, undivided interest in certain assets of the Trust. The assets of the
Trust are allocated in part to the investor certificateholders of all
outstanding Series (the "Certificateholders' Interest") with the remainder
allocated to the Holders of the Transferor Certificates. The aggregate interest
represented by the Class A Certificates at any time in the Principal Receivables
in the Trust shall not exceed an amount equal to the Class A Invested Amount at
such time. The Class A Initial Invested Amount is $618,750,000. The Class A
Invested Amount on any date will be an amount equal to (a) the Class A Initial
Invested Amount, minus (b) the aggregate amount of principal payments made to
the Class A Certificateholder on or prior to such date, minus (c) the excess, if
any, of the aggregate amount of Class A Investor Charge-Offs for all prior
Distribution Dates over Class A Investor Charge-Offs reimbursed pursuant to
subsection 4.07(b) of the Supplement prior to such date.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the
Transferors may, from time to time, direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust,
to issue one or more new Series of Investor Certificates, which will represent
fractional, undivided interests in certain of the Trust Assets.
On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute
to each Class A Certificateholder of record on the last day of the preceding
calendar month (each a "Record Date") such Class A Certificateholder's pro rata
share of such amounts (including amounts on deposit in the Collection Account
and Principal Funding Account) as are payable to the Class A Certificateholder
pursuant to the Agreement and the Supplement. Distributions with respect to this
Class A Certificate will be made by the Paying Agent by check mailed to the
address of the Class A Certificateholder of record appearing in the Certificate
Register without the presentation or surrender of this Class A Certificate or
the making of any notation thereon (except for the final distribution in respect
of this Class A Certificate) except that with respect to Class A Certificates
registered in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee for The Depository Trust
Company, distributions will be made in the form of immediately available funds.
Final payment of this Class A Certificate will be made only upon presentation
and surrender of this Class A Certificate at the office or agency specified in
the notice of final distribution delivered by the Trustee to the Series 2003-3
Certificateholders in accordance with the Agreement and the Supplement.
On any day occurring on or after the day on which the Invested
Amount is reduced to 5% or less of the Initial Invested Amount, the Transferors
have the option to repurchase the Series 2003-3 Certificateholders' Interest in
the Trust. The repurchase price will be equal to (a) if such day is a
Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for such Distribution Date or (b) if
such day is not a Distribution Date, the Reassignment Amount for the
Distribution Date following such day. Following the deposit of the Reassignment
Amount in the Collection Account, Series 2003-3 Certificateholders will not have
any interest in the Receivables and the Series 2003-3 Certificates will
represent only the right to receive such Reassignment Amount.
A-1-5
(Series 2003-3 Supplement)
This Class A Certificate does not represent an obligation of,
or an interest in, the Transferors or the Servicer or any affiliate of any of
them and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality. This Class A
Certificate is limited in right of payment to certain Collections with respect
to the Receivables (and certain other amounts), all as more specifically set
forth hereinabove and in the Agreement and the Supplement.
The Class A Certificates are issuable only in minimum
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of this
Class A Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register upon
surrender of this Class A Certificate for registration of transfer at any office
or agency maintained by the Transfer Agent and Registrar accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee or the
Transfer Agent and Registrar, duly executed by the Class A Certificateholder or
such Class A Certificateholder's attorney, and duly authorized in writing with
such signature guaranteed, and thereupon one or more new Class A Certificates of
authorized denominations and for the same aggregate fractional undivided
interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Class A Certificates are exchangeable for new
Class A Certificates evidencing like aggregate fractional, undivided interests
as requested by the Class A Certificateholder surrendering such Class A
Certificates. No service charge may be imposed for any such exchange but the
Servicer or Transfer Agent and Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith.
The Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Transfer
Agent and Registrar and any agent of any of them, may treat the person in whose
name this Class A Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, and neither the Servicer nor the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Transfer Agent and Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by
notice to the contrary except in certain circumstances described in the
Agreement.
THIS CLASS A CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW
PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER

fractional, undivided interest in certain assets of the Trust. The assets of the
Trust are allocated in part to the investor certificateholders of all

represented by the Class B Certificates at any time in the Principal Receivables
in the Trust shall not exceed an amount equal to the Class B Invested Amount at
such time. The Class B Initial Invested Amount is $60,000,000. The Class B

Reallocated Principal Collections that have resulted in a reduction in the
Collateral Invested Amount pursuant to Section 4.08), minus (e) an amount equal
to the amount by which the Class B Invested Amount has been reduced to cover the
Class A Investor Default Amount on all prior Distribution Dates, and plus (f)
the amount of Excess Spread and Excess Finance Charge Collections allocated to
Series 2003-3 and applied on all prior Distribution Dates for the purpose of
reimbursing amounts deducted pursuant to the foregoing clauses (c), (d) and (e);
provided, however, that the Class B Invested Amount may not be reduced below
zero.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the
Transferors may, from time to time, direct the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust,
to issue one or more new Series of Investor Certificates, which will represent
fractional, undivided interests in certain of the Trust Assets.
On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute
to each Class B Certificateholder of record on the last day of the preceding
calendar month (each a "Record Date") such Class B Certificateholder's pro rata
share of such amounts (including amounts on deposit in the Collection Account
and Principal Funding Account) as are payable to the Class B Certificateholder
pursuant to the Agreement and the Supplement. Distributions with respect to this
Class B Certificate will be made by the Paying Agent by check mailed to the

Register without the presentation or surrender of this Class B Certificate or
the making of any notation thereon (except for the final distribution in respect

Company, distributions will be made in the form of immediately available funds.
