(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Basic Documents to the contrary, the Administrator shall be responsible for performance of the duties of the Administrator set forth in Section 5.04(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of the Trust Agreement with respect to, among other things, accounting and reports to the Certificateholders; provided, however, that the Owner Trustee shall remain exclusively responsible for the mailing of the Schedule K-1s necessary to enable each Certificateholder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

(iv) If the Certificateholder is not the Administrator or any of its Affiliates, the Administrator shall satisfy its obligations with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) above and under the Trust Agreement by retaining, at the expense of the Administrator, a firm of independent public accountants (the “Accountants”) which shall perform the obligations of the Administrator thereunder.

In connection with paragraph (ii) above, the Administrator will cause the Accountants to provide, prior to December 1 of each year, a letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee as to whether any tax withholding is then required and, if required, the procedures to be followed with respect thereto to comply with the requirements of the Code; provided, however, that the Certificateholder is not the Administrator or any of its Affiliates.

election to enter into such a Currency Swap Agreement, the Administrator will prepare all necessary and appropriate documentation and take all of the necessary and appropriate actions to cause the Issuer to enter into such a Currency Swap Agreement on behalf of the Trust.

(vii) The Administrator shall perform all duties and obligations applicable to or required of the Issuer set forth in Appendix A to the Sale and Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

(viii) In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other obligations under this Agreement, the Administrator may enter into transactions with or otherwise deal with any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any such transactions or dealings shall be in accordance with any directions received from the Issuer and shall be, in the Administrator’s opinion, no less favorable to the Issuer than would be available from unaffiliated parties.

(i) With respect to matters that in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial, the Administrator shall not take any action unless within a reasonable time before the taking of such action (x) the Administrator shall have notified the Owner Trustee of the proposed action and the Owner Trustee shall have consented thereto or provided an alternative direction, and (y) all approvals required under the Basic Documents shall have been obtained.

7. OTHER ACTIVITIES OF ADMINISTRATOR. Nothing herein shall prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or, in its or their sole discretion, from acting as an administrator for any other person or entity, or in a similar capacity therefor,

even though such person or entity may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.
