The Master Servicer shall have responsibility for the management of the servicing and receipt of Collections in respect of the Receivables originated by the Originators. The Master Servicer shall have the authority to make any management decisions relating to each Receivable to the extent such authority is granted to the Master Servicer hereunder and under any Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Unless and until the Master Servicer has been replaced as Master Servicer in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall treat the Master Servicer as Master Servicer and may conclusively rely on the instructions, notices and reports of the Master Servicer for so long as the Master Servicer continues in its appointment as Master Servicer.

Prior to such delegation or assignment being effective, the Master Servicer shall have received notice that the Rating Agency Condition shall be satisfied after giving effect to such delegation or assignment and the written consent of the Company, the Trustee and each Funding Agent to such delegation or assignment shall have been obtained. No delegation or assignment of duties by the Master Servicer permitted hereunder shall relieve the Master Servicer of its liability and responsibility with respect to such duties.
(c) In order to perform the obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall appoint each Originator as a local servicer (in such capacity, "Local Servicer") for the Receivables generated by such Originator. References to the servicing covenants, duties and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder shall also be deemed to refer to the Local Servicers' covenants, duties and obligations; provided, however, that in the event that a Local Servicer shall resign or be removed from their position, unless an alternate Local Servicer can be found, the Master Servicer shall itself service the Receivables previously serviced by such Local Servicer.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing or any other provision contained herein, the preparation, delivery and submission
4
of the UK Originator Daily Reports shall solely be made in accordance with the UK Receivables Purchase Agreement and in accordance with Section 4.01 of this Agreement and only the Master Servicer will (among other things), manage the preparation and submission of the Daily Reports.
Section 2.02. Servicing Procedures.
(a) The Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through any party properly designated by it hereunder, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration that it may deem necessary or desirable, but subject to the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to Section 6.01, the Master Servicer or its designee is hereby authorized and empowered (i) to execute and deliver, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables and, after the delinquency of any Receivable and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with the Policies and with applicable Requirements of Law, to commence enforcement proceedings with respect to Receivables and (ii) to make any filings, reports, notices, applications, registrations with, and to seek any consents or authorizations from the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities authority and any foreign securities authority on behalf of the Trust as may be necessary or advisable to comply with any Federal, state or foreign securities or reporting requirements or laws.
(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to Section 6.02, the Master Servicer or its designee is hereby authorized and empowered to give written direction to the Trustee with respect to transfers within and withdrawals from the Company Concentration Accounts and payments to the Company Receipts Accounts (which directions may be in the form of a Daily Report) and as otherwise specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreements.
(c) The Master Servicer or its designee shall, at its cost and expense and as agent for the Company, collect, and in accordance with the Policies, as and when the same becomes due, the amount owing on each Receivable. The Master Servicer or its designee shall not make any material change in its administrative, servicing and collection systems that deviates from the Policies, except as expressly permitted by the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreements and after giving written notice to the Trustee of any such change. In the event of default under any Receivable, the Master Servicer or its designee shall have the power and authority, on behalf of the Company, to take such action in respect of such Receivable as the Master Servicer or its designee may deem advisable. In the enforcement or collection of any Receivable, the Master Servicer or its designee shall be entitled, but not required, to xxx thereon in (i) its own name or (ii) if, but only if, the Company consents in writing (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), as agent for the Company. In no event shall the Master Servicer or its designee be entitled to take any action that would make the Company, the Trustee, any Funding Agent or any Investor Certificateholder a party to any litigation without the express prior written consent of such Person.
(d) Except as provided in any Pooling and Servicing Agreements, neither the Master Servicer or its designee nor the Liquidation Servicer or any Successor Master Servicer shall be obligated to use separate servicing procedures, offices, employees or accounts for servicing the Receivables transferred to the Company from the procedures, offices, employees and accounts used by the Master Servicer or a Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, in connection with servicing other receivables.
(e) The Master Servicer or its designee shall comply with and perform its servicing obligations with respect to the Receivables in accordance with the Contracts relating to the Receivables and the Policies.
(f) The Master Servicer or its designee shall not take any action to cause any U.S. Receivable not evidenced by any "instrument" or which does not constitute "chattel paper" (each as defined under the applicable UCC or other similar applicable law, statute or legislation) upon origination to become
5
evidenced by an "instrument" or become "chattel paper" and the Master Servicer or its designee shall not take any action to cause any interest in any U.S. Receivable to be evidenced by any title documents in bearer form, except in connection with its enforcement or collection of such Receivable. If any U.S. Receivable is evidenced by an "instrument" or "chattel paper" (as defined under the applicable UCC), the Master Servicer or its designee shall either (i) deliver such instrument or title documents to the Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event more than three (3) calendar days after execution thereof or (ii) immediately stamp the Contract relating to such Receivable in red with words substantially to the following effect: "THIS RECEIVABLE HAS BEEN PLEDGED TO X.X. XXXXXX BANK (IRELAND) PLC, (F/K/A CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (IRELAND) PLC) AS TRUSTEE PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED POOLING AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 26, 2001, AMONG HUNTSMAN RECEIVABLES FINANCE, LLC, HUNTSMAN (EUROPE) BVBA AND X.X. XXXXXX BANK (IRELAND) PLC."
Section 2.03. Collections.
(a) Obligors shall have been instructed to make all payments in respect of the Receivables to one of the Collection Accounts. Each of the Company and the Master Servicer represents, warrants and agrees that all Collections shall be collected, processed and deposited by it pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, the Pooling and Servicing Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall comply with the provisions of subsection 3.01(d) of the Pooling Agreement as to remittance of funds available in any Collection Account or Master Collection Account. All Collections in the Collection Accounts or Master Collection Accounts shall be transferred to the applicable Company Concentration Accounts by no later than 12:30 p.m. London time on the next Business Day following the day of receipt of Collections in the Collection Accounts. In the event that any payments in respect of any Receivable are made directly to the Master Servicer or any Local Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Local Servicer shall, within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof, deliver or deposit such amounts to the appropriate currency Company Concentration Account and, prior to forwarding such amounts, the Master Servicer or the Local Servicer shall hold such payments on behalf of the Company.
(b) The Master Servicer shall administer amounts on deposit in the Collection Accounts and the Master Collection Accounts in accordance with the terms hereof and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreements. The Trustee (at the direction of the Master Servicer) shall administer amounts on deposit in the Company Concentration Accounts in accordance with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreements. Each of the Company and the Master Servicer acknowledges and agrees that (i) it shall not have any right to withdraw any funds on deposit in any Collection Account and the Master Collection Account except pursuant to the terms hereof and the Pooling and Servicing Agreements and (ii) all amounts deposited in any Company Concentration Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee (in each case pursuant to the security interest granted by the Company under the Pooling Agreement), subject to the Master Servicer's rights to direct the applications and transfers of any such amounts as provided by the terms of any Pooling and Servicing Agreements, such directions to be included in the Daily Report.
(c) If the Collections received in respect of a Receivable that is not set forth in a Daily Report can be identified by the Master Servicer within five (5) Local Business Days of receipt, the Master Servicer shall send written notice to the Trustee identifying such Receivable and setting forth the amount of Collections attributable to such Receivable. If the Trustee shall have received such written notice within five (5) Local Business Days of the Local Business Day on which such Collections have been deposited into a Collection Account, such Collections shall be transferred to the relevant Company Receipts Account by the Trustee. If the Collections received with respect to an Excluded Receivable can be identified by the Master Servicer immediately upon receipt of such Collections in any Collection Account, such Collections may be transferred to the relevant Company Receipts
6
Account by the Trustee in accordance with the Daily Report, such transfers to be made in accordance with Section 3.01(d)(vii) of the Pooling Agreement. If the Collections with respect to such Excluded Receivable cannot be immediately identified by the Master Servicer upon receipt, such Collections shall be allocated as set forth in subsections 3.01(d), 3.01(e), 3.01(f), 3.01(g) and 3.01(h) of the Pooling Agreement, as applicable.
(d) The Master Servicer hereby agrees that if the Master Servicer can attribute a Collection to a specific Obligor and a specific Receivable, then such collection shall be applied to pay such Receivable of such Obligor; provided, however, that if the Master Servicer cannot attribute a Collection to a specific Receivable, then such Collection shall be applied to pay the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of maturity of such Receivables, beginning with the Receivable that has been outstanding the longest period of time and ending with the Receivable that has been outstanding the shortest period of time.
(e) The Master Servicer shall procure the Forward Rates from the FX Counterparty or the Funding Agent in order to prepare the Daily Report and the Monthly Settlement Report and the Company shall procure the Spot Rates from the FX Counterparty or the Funding Agent in order to make the distributions from the Series Concentration Accounts set forth in Sections 3.01(d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) of the Pooling Agreement.
Section 2.04. Reconciliation of Deposits. If in respect of Collections on account of a Receivable, the Master Servicer deposits into a Collection Account, or a Company Concentration Account (a) a check that is not honored for any reason or (b) an amount that is less than or more than the actual amount of such Collections, the Master Servicer shall, in lieu of making a reconciling withdrawal or deposit, as the case may be, adjust the amount subsequently deposited into such Collection Account or Company Concentration Account to reflect such dishonored check or deposit mistake. Any Receivable in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not to have been paid; provided, that no adjustments made pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall change any amount previously reported pursuant to Section 4.02.
Section 2.05. Servicing Compensation.
(a) Prior to the Liquidation Servicer Commencement Date, as compensation for the administration and servicing activities hereunder and reimbursement for the expenses set forth in subsection 2.05(b), each Local Servicer and Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date in arrears, for the preceding Settlement Period prior to the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling Agreement, a portion (expressed as a percentage) of a servicing fee (the "Servicing Fee"), which shall be a maximum amount equal to the product of (A) the Servicing Fee Percentage, (B)(i) the average aggregate Principal Amount of the Receivables for such Settlement Period or (ii) with respect to the initial Accrual Period, the average aggregate Principal Amount of the Receivables from (and including) the Series 0000-0 Xxxxxxxx Date to (but excluding) the last day of the initial Settlement Period and (C) the number of days in such Settlement Period divided by 360. The Company and the Initial Master Servicer may from time to time agree in writing to a reduced Servicing Fee. If there is a Master Servicer Default and a Successor Master Servicer Default is appointed by the Trustee, the servicing fee for such Successor Master Servicer shall be the fee agreed upon between the Trustee and such Successor Master Servicer; provided, however, that such servicing fee shall not exceed the maximum Servicing Fee payable hereunder to the Master Servicer. The servicing fee payable to the Liquidation Servicer shall be the Liquidation Servicing Fee. Except as otherwise set forth in the related Supplement, the share of the Servicing Fee allocable to Certificates of each Outstanding Series for any Settlement Period shall be an amount equal to the product of (i) the Servicing Fee for such Settlement Period and (ii) a fraction (expressed as a percentage) (A) the numerator of which is the daily average Invested Amount for such Settlement Period with respect to such Outstanding Series and (B) the denominator of which is the daily average Aggregate Invested Amount for such Settlement Period (with respect to any such Series, the "Monthly Servicing Fee"). The Master Servicer (acting in such capacity)
7
shall be entitled to 10% of the Servicing Fee. Each Local Servicer shall be entitled to receive a percentage of the remaining Servicing Fee in an amount equal to the percentage obtained by dividing the aggregate Principal Amount of Eligible Receivables conveyed by such Local Servicer to the Contributor or the Company, as the case may be, by the Aggregate Receivables Amount. The Servicing Fee shall be payable to such Local Servicers and the Master Servicer solely pursuant to the terms of, and to the extent amounts are available for payment under, Article III of the Pooling Agreement. Any such fee which is payable to a Local Servicer belonging in the United Kingdom shall be inclusive of United Kingdom value added tax and the application of Section 89 of the United Kingdom Value Added Tax Act 1994 shall be excluded in relation to such fee.
(b) The Company hereby directs the Master Servicer to pay amounts due to the Liquidation Servicer, in the event it has been appointed a Successor Master Servicer, including the Liquidation Servicer's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses relating to the Liquidation Servicer's inspections, if any, of the Master Servicer's servicing facilities which inspections shall occur not more frequently than once per calendar year (or, following the commencement and continuation of an Early Amortization Period), such inspection shall occur at the discretion of the Liquidation Servicer. The Liquidation Servicer shall ensure that the Liquidation Servicer has (i) completed the Master Servicer Site Review and (ii) reviewed the Master Servicer's Standby Liquidation System and confirmed to the Trustee that such system is operating to the Liquidation Servicer's satisfaction within sixty (60) days following the Effective Date; provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Liquidation Servicer, in the event it has been appointed as Successor Master Servicer, be liable for any Federal, state or local income or franchise tax, or any interest or penalties with respect thereto, assessed on the Trust, the Trustee or the Investor Certificateholders or the Liquidation Servicer except in accordance with Section 5.02 and as otherwise expressly provided herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Pooling and Servicing Agreements, in the event that the Master Servicer fails to pay any amount due to the Liquidation Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Pooling Agreement, or following the commencement and continuation (for a period greater than any applicable grace period) of an Early Amortization Period, the Liquidation Servicer shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights it may have under law and under the Pooling Agreement, to receive directly such amounts owing to it under the Pooling and Servicing Agreements from, and in the same order of priority as, the Servicing Fee before payment to the Master Servicer or Local Servicer of any portion thereof. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay expenses for its own account and shall not be entitled to any payment therefor other than the Servicing Fee. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to limit the obligation of the Master Servicer or the Company to pay any amounts due to the Liquidation Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Pooling Agreement. Other than as provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Trustee may not set-off or apply funds except as permitted by Article III of the Pooling Agreement or any Supplement thereto and the Trustee hereby agrees that it shall have no right of setoff or banker's lien against, and no right to otherwise deduct from, the Servicing Fee for any amount owed to it by the Master Servicer, in its capacities the Master Servicer or otherwise, pursuant to the Transaction Documents.
Section 2.06. Advances by the Master Servicer.
(a) The Master Servicer to the extent it determines that such Advance would be recoverable from subsequent Collections may deposit into the applicable Series Concentration Principal Subaccounts monies in an Approved Currency in an amount equal to any projected liquidity shortfall as determined by the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall set forth in the Daily Report and the Monthly Settlement Report the amount of all Servicer Advances made by the Master Servicer during the related reporting period.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall reimburse the Master Servicer for the Outstanding Amount Advanced in accordance with the provisions of each Supplement.

Master Servicer Indemnified Person and shall survive the termination, in whole or in part, of the Agreement and the resignation or removal, as applicable, of the Master Servicer.
(b) In addition to subsection (a) above, the Master Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless each Master Servicer Indemnified Person from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by reason of a breach by the Master Servicer or Local Servicer of any covenant contained in subsections 2.02(f) or (g) or Sections 4.05, 4.06, 4.07 or 4.12 that materially adversely affects the interest of the Company, the Trust or the Investor Certificateholders under the Transaction Documents with respect to any Receivable or the collectibility of any Receivable (a "Master Servicer Indemnification Event"), in an amount equal to the outstanding Principal Amount of such Receivable at the time of such event. Payment shall occur on or prior to the 30th Business Day after the day such Master Servicer Indemnification Event becomes known to the Master Servicer unless such Master Servicer Indemnification Event shall have been cured on or before such day.
Section 5.03. Master Servicer Not to Resign. The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (a) upon determination that (i) the performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under applicable law, and (ii) there is no reasonable course of action that it could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under applicable law or (b) if the Master Servicer is terminated as Master Servicer pursuant to Section 6.01 or (c) if the Master Servicer obtains the prior written consent of each Funding Agent and provides evidence that such resignation satisfies the Rating Agency Condition; provided, however, that such resignation shall not in any way affect the Servicer Guarantor's obligations hereunder or under any other Transaction Document. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced as to clause (a)(i) above by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Company, the Trustee and each Funding Agent. No such resignation shall become effective until the Servicer Guarantor, or in the event of a default under the Servicing Guarantee, a Successor Master Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.02. The Trustee, the Company, each Funding Agent and each Rating Agency shall be notified of such resignation (or termination) by the Master Servicer.
Section 5.04. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Receivables. The Master Servicer shall retain and hold in trust for the Company, each Originator, each Funding Agent, and the Trustee at the office of the Master Servicer all hard copies of the UK Originator Daily Reports, Originator Daily Reports and Offers received and printed out by the Master Servicer in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the UK Receivables Purchase Agreement, Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of each attachment to the Omnibus Receivables Purchase Agreement and Section 4.01 of this Agreement, and all copies and notifications received and/or sent pursuant to and in accordance with the UK Receivables Purchase Agreement and Section 4.01 of this Agreement and such computer programs, books of account and other records as are reasonably necessary to enable the Trustee to determine at any time the status of the Receivables and all collections and payments in respect thereof (including, without limitation, an ability to recreate records evidencing the Receivables in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof).

17
(b) failure by the Master Servicer or Local Servicer to pay any amount required to be paid by it under any Pooling and Servicing Agreement (which, with respect to the Local Servicer, has not been paid by the Master Servicer) or to give any direction with respect to the allocation or transfer of funds under any Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the date such payment is due or such allocation or transfer is required to be made;
(c) failure on the part of the Master Servicer or Local Servicer duly to observe or to perform in any material respect any other of their respective covenants or agreements set forth in any Pooling or Servicing Agreement that has a Material Adverse Effect on the Holders of any Outstanding Investor Certificates and that continues unremedied until five (5) Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on which a Responsible Officer of the Master Servicer has knowledge of such failure and (ii) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to the Master Servicer by the Company or the Trustee, or (B) to the Company, the Trustee and to the Master Servicer by Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing 25% or more of the Aggregate Invested Amount or by any Funding Agent; provided that if such failure may be cured and the Master Servicer or the Servicer Guarantor is diligently pursuing such cure, such event shall not constitute a Master Servicer Default for an additional five (5) calendar days; and provided, further, that no Master Servicer Default shall be deemed to occur under this subsection with respect to a failure on the part of the Master Servicer if the Master Servicer shall have complied with the provisions of Section 5.02(b) with respect thereto;
(d) any representation, warranty or certification made by the Master Servicer, Local Servicer or Servicer Guarantor herein or in any Pooling or Servicing Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made, which incorrectness has a Material Adverse Effect on the Holders of any Outstanding Investor Certificates or on the collectibility of the Receivables as a whole and which Material Adverse Effect continues unremedied until five (5) Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on which a Responsible Officer of the Master Servicer has knowledge of such failure and (ii) the date on which written notice thereof, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to the Master Servicer by the Company or the Trustee, or (B) to the Company, to the Trustee and to the Master Servicer by Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing 25% or more of the Aggregate Invested Amount; provided, that if such incorrectness may be cured and the Master Servicer is diligently pursuing such cure, such event shall not constitute a Master Servicer Default for an additional five (5) calendar days;
(e) an Insolvency Event shall have occurred with respect to the Master Servicer or the Servicer Guarantor;
(f) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Program Termination Event under any Origination Agreement;
(g) any of this Agreement, the Pooling Agreement, the Supplement or the Origination Agreements shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect, or the Company, the Master Servicer, any Local Servicer or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, shall so assert in writing;
(h) any action, suit, investigation or proceeding at law or in equity (including, without limitation, injunctions, writs or restraining orders) shall be brought or commenced or filed by or before any arbitrator, court or Governmental Authority against the Company, the Master Servicer or Local Servicer or any properties, revenues or rights of any thereof which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Holders of any Outstanding Series of Investor Certificates; or
(i) the Servicer Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries shall default in the observance or performance of any agreement or condition relating to any of its outstanding Indebtedness or
18
contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; provided, however, that no Series 2002-1 Early Amortization Event shall be deemed to occur under this paragraph unless the aggregate amount of Indebtedness in respect of which any default or other event or condition referred to in this paragraph shall have occurred shall be equal to at least $20,000,000;
then, in the event of any Master Servicer Default, so long as the Master Servicer Default shall not have been remedied (or waived in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents), the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Aggregate Invested Amount voting as a single class, the Trustee shall, by notice then given in writing to the Master Servicer, each Funding Agent and to each Rating Agency (a "Termination Notice"), terminate all or any part of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer hereunder and under the Pooling Agreement and Servicing Agreements (other than rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreements existing prior to a Master Servicer Default); provided that so long as an Affiliate of the Company is the Master Servicer, unless otherwise designated in writing by the Company to the Trustee, any act or omission of the Master Servicer shall not constitute a Master Servicer Default hereunder if and to the extent that such act or omission results only in a failure to transfer to the Company Receipts Account (or otherwise to pay to the Company) any amount which should have been so transferred (or paid). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.01, a delay in or failure of performance referred to under clause (a) or (b) above for a period of five (5) Business Days after the applicable grace period shall not constitute a Master Servicer Default, if such delay or failure could not have been prevented by the exercise of reasonable diligence by the Master Servicer and such delay or failure was caused by a Force Majeure Delay with respect to the Master Servicer. After receipt by the Master Servicer of a Termination Notice or delivery by the Master Servicer of a Resignation Notice, on the date that the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as applicable, shall have been appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.02, all authority and power of the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer under any Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent specified in such Termination Notice shall pass to and be vested in the Liquidation Servicer (a "Service Transfer") or the Successor Master Servicer, as applicable, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby directed, authorized and empowered (upon the failure of the Master Servicer to cooperate) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments upon the refusal of the Master Servicer to execute or to deliver such documents or instruments, and to do and to accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such Service Transfer and the Trustee shall incur no liability in connection with effecting such Service Transfer. The Master Servicer and each Local Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Company, the Trustee and or the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as applicable, in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer to conduct their duties hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as applicable, of all authority of the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer to service the Receivables, provided for under the Pooling and Servicing Agreements (including without limitation, all authority over all Collections that shall on the date of transfer be held by the Master Servicer for deposit, or that have been deposited by the Master Servicer, in any Collection Account, Master Collection Account or Company Concentration Account or that shall thereafter be received with respect to the Receivables), and in assisting the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be. Upon a Service Transfer, the terminated Master Servicer and each Local Servicer shall promptly (x) assemble all of its documents, instruments and other records (including credit files, licenses (to the extent transferable), rights, copies of all relevant computer programs and any necessary licenses (to the
19
extent transferable) for the use thereof, related material, computer tapes, disks, cassettes and data) that (i) evidence or record Receivables which are the subject of the Participation and (ii) are otherwise necessary to enable the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, to coordinate servicing of all such Receivables and to prepare and deliver Daily Reports and Monthly Settlement Reports, (iii) are otherwise necessary to enable the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, to effect the immediate Collection of such Receivables, with or without the participation of an Originator or the Master Servicer and (y) deliver to the extent permitted by law or license (to the extent transferable) the use of all of the foregoing documents, instruments and other records to such Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, at a place designated by such Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be required, to the extent it has an ownership interest in any electronic records, computer software or licenses, to transfer, assign, set-over or otherwise convey such ownership interests to the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be. In recognition of the terminated Master Servicer's need to have access to any such documents, instruments and other records that may be transferred to the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, whether as a result of its continuing responsibility as a servicer of accounts receivable that are not the subject of the Participation or otherwise, such Liquidation Servicer or Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide to such terminated Master Servicer reasonable access to such documents, instruments and other records transferred by such terminated Master Servicer to it in connection with any activity arising in the ordinary course of the terminated Master Servicer's business; provided that the terminated Master Servicer shall not disrupt or otherwise interfere with the Liquidation Servicer's or the Successor Master Servicer's, as the case may be, use of and access to such documents, instruments and other records. To the extent that compliance with this Section 6.01 shall require the terminated Master Servicer to disclose to such Successor Master Servicer information of any kind that the terminated Master Servicer reasonably deems to be confidential, the Liquidation Servicer or the Successor Master Servicer, as the case may be, shall be required to enter into such customary licensing and confidentiality agreements as the terminated Master Servicer shall reasonably deem necessary to protect its interests. All costs and expenses incurred by the terminated Master Servicer and the Trustee in connection with any Service Transfer shall be for the account of the terminated Master Servicer and to the extent any costs or expenses incurred by the Trustee are not so paid, the Trustee shall be entitled to be paid such items from amounts that would otherwise be distributable to the Company under Article III of the Pooling Agreement.
Section 6.02. Trustee To Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) Upon (i), in the case of a termination of the Master Servicer, the receipt by the Master Servicer of a Termination Notice pursuant to Section 6.01 or (ii), in the case of a resignation of the Master Servicer, notification by the Master Servicer to the Trustee, the Company, each Funding Agent and each Rating Agency in writing of its resignation pursuant to Section 5.03 (the "Resignation Notice"), the Master Servicer shall continue to perform all servicing functions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreements until (1) in the case of a termination of the Master Servicer, the earlier of (A) the date on which the appointment of the Liquidation Servicer as Successor Master Servicer has been activated and (B) the date occuring five (5) Business Days after delivery of the Termination Notice by the Trustee to the Master Servicer or, (2) in the case of a resignation of the Master Servicer, the earlier of (X) the date on which a Successor Master Servicer accepts its appointment and (Y) 60 days after the delivery of such Resignation Notice, as the case may be. In the case of a resignation of the Master Servicer, upon the receipt by the Trustee of a Resignation Notice, the Trustee shall endeavor to appoint an eligible Successor Master Servicer subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition (the "Successor Master Servicer") and such Successor Master Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Trustee.
20
(b) In the case of a resignation of the Master Servicer, in the event that a Successor Master Servicer has not been appointed or has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Master Servicer ceases to act as Master Servicer and in the case of the termination of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, without further action, shall in each case notify the Liquidation Servicer (in the case of a termination, concurrent with giving the Termination Notice) to activate the commencement of servicing by the Liquidation Servicer and to establish the Liquidation Servicer Commencement Date.
(c) Upon its appointment, the Successor Master Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer with respect to servicing functions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreements (with such changes as are agreed to between such Successor Master Servicer and the Company (with the consent of the Rating Agencies) or the Company and the Trustee) and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and all references in any Pooling or Servicing Agreement to the Master Servicer shall be deemed to refer to such Successor Master Servicer. The Successor Master Servicer shall not be liable for, and the replaced Master Servicer shall indemnify the Successor Master Servicer against costs incurred by the Successor Master Servicer as a result of, any acts or omissions of such replaced Master Servicer or any events or occurrences occurring prior to the Successor Master Servicer's acceptance of its appointment as successor to the Master Servicer. Any Successor Master Servicer shall manage the servicing and administration of the Receivables in accordance with the Policies and the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreements.
(d) The Company and the Trustee hereby agree that the Successor Master Servicer shall receive the Servicing Fee as its servicing compensation and that the Trustee shall not be liable for any Servicing Fee differential as a result of the Master Servicer fulfilling its obligations hereunder.
Section 6.03. Waiver of Past Defaults. Holders of Investor Certificates evidencing more than 51% of the Aggregate Invested Amount may waive any continuing default by the Master Servicer or the Company in the performance of its respective obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in the failure to make any required deposits or payments in respect of any Series of Investor Certificates, which shall require a waiver by the Holders of all of the affected Investor Certificates. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of the Pooling and Servicing Agreements. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. The Company and the Master Servicer shall provide notice to each Rating Agency of any such waiver.
Section 7.01. Guaranty. In order to induce the Company and the Trustee to execute and deliver this Agreement, and in consideration thereof, the Servicer Guarantor hereby (i) unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Company and the Trustee the obligations of the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer to perform all of the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements to be made by the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer under this Agreement, the Pooling Agreement or the Origination Agreements, (ii) agrees to cause the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer to perform and observe duly and punctually all of the foregoing, and (iii) agrees that, if for any reason whatsoever the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer fails to so perform and observe such terms, conditions, covenants and agreements, the Servicer Guarantor will duly and punctually perform and observe the same (the obligations referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) above are collectively referred to as the "Guaranteed Obligations"). The liabilities and obligations of the Servicer Guarantor under the guaranty contained in this Article VII (this "Guaranty") will be absolute and unconditional under all circumstances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company and the
21
Trustee acknowledge and agree that this Guaranty shall be a guaranty of performance and not of payment.
Section 7.02. Scope of Guarantor's Liability. The Guaranteed Obligations are independent of the obligations of the Master Servicer, any other guarantor or any other Person, and the Company and the Trustee may enforce any of their rights hereunder independently of any other right or remedy that the Company and the Trustee may at any time hold with respect to their Guaranteed Obligations or any security or other guaranty therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company and the Trustee may bring a separate action against the Servicer Guarantor without first proceeding against the Master Servicer or any Local Servicer, any other guarantor or any other Person, and regardless of whether the Master Servicer or any other guarantor or any other Person is joined in any such action. The Servicer Guarantor's liability hereunder shall at all times remain effective with respect to Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer under the Pooling Agreement, notwithstanding any limitations on the liability of any Master Servicer or any Local Servicer to the Company and the Trustee contained in any of the Transaction Documents or elsewhere. The Company and the Trustee's rights hereunder shall not be exhausted by any action taken by the Company and the Trustee until all Guaranteed Obligations have been fully performed.
Section 7.03. The Company and the Trustee's Right to Amend this Agreement. The Servicer Guarantor authorizes the Company and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time without notice and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, without affecting the liability of the Servicer Guarantor hereunder, to: (a) alter the terms of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (b) waive, release, terminate, abandon, subordinate and enforce all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and any security or guaranties therefor, (c) release the Master Servicer, any guarantor or any other Person from any personal liability with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; and (d) assign its rights under this Guaranty in whole or in part.
Section 7.04. Waiver of Certain Rights by Guarantor. The Servicer Guarantor hereby waives each of the following to the fullest extent allowed by law:
(a) any defense based upon:
(i) any act or omission of the Company and the Trustee or any other Person that directly or indirectly results in the discharge or release of any of the Master Servicer or any other Person or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor; or
(ii) any disability or any other defense of the Master Servicer with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether consensual or arising by operation of law or any bankruptcy, insolvency or debtor-relief proceeding, or from any other cause;
(b) any right (whether now or hereafter existing) to require the Company and the Trustee, as a condition to the enforcement of this Guaranty, to proceed against the Master Servicer;
(c) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind, including without limitation notices of default and notice of acceptance of this Guaranty; and
22
(d) all other rights and defenses the assertion or exercise of which would in any way diminish the liability of the Servicer Guarantor hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Section 7.05. Master Servicer's Obligations to Guarantor and Guarantor's Obligations to Master Servicer Subordinated. Until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been performed, the Servicer Guarantor agrees that all existing and future obligations of the Master Servicer or Local Servicer to the Servicer Guarantor or the Servicer Guarantor to the Master Servicer or Local Servicer shall be and hereby are expressly subordinated to the full performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, on the terms set forth in clauses (a) through (d) below, and the performance thereof is expressly deferred in right to the full performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.
(a) The Servicer Guarantor authorizes and directs the Master Servicer and each Local Servicer and each of the Company and the Trustee authorizes and directs the Servicer Guarantor to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and maintain the subordination provided herein.
(b) No right of any holder of the Guaranteed Obligations to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Servicer Guarantor, the Company and the Trustee or any other Person or by any noncompliance by the Servicer Guarantor, the Trustee, the Company and the Trustee or any other Person with the terms, provisions and covenants hereof or of the Transaction Documents regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder of the Guaranteed Obligations may have or be otherwise charged with.
(c) Nothing express or implied herein shall give any Person other than the Master Servicer, the Company, the Trustee, and the Servicer Guarantor any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim hereunder.
(d) If the Servicer Guarantor shall institute or participate in any suit, action or proceeding against the Company or the Trustee or the Company or the Trustee shall institute or participate in any suit, action or proceeding against the Servicer Guarantor, in violation of the terms hereof, the Company or the Trustee or the Servicer Guarantor, as the case may be may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea this subordination, either the Company or the Trustee are irrevocably authorized to intervene and to interpose such defense or plea in their name or in the name of the Company or the Trustee, or the Servicer Guarantor, as the case may be.
Section 7.06. Guarantor to Pay the Company and the Trustee's Expenses. The Servicer Guarantor agrees to pay to the Company and the Trustee, on demand, all reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by the Company and the Trustee in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Guaranty, or in the enforcement of this Guaranty, whether or not any action is filed in connection therewith. Until paid to the Company and the Trustee, such amounts shall bear interest, commencing with the Company and the Trustee's demand therefor, for each Settlement Period during the period from the date of such demand until paid, at a rate equal to One-Month LIBOR plus 1.00% (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year).
Section 7.07. Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, and the rights of the Company and the Trustee shall continue, if at any time performance of the General Obligations is discontinued by the Servicer Guarantor upon an event of bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, the Trustee, the Servicer Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for the foregoing, or any substantial part of their respective property, or they become otherwise insolvent.

With respect to categories (ii) and (xi), we will obtain details of the collection entries comprising the Collections balance and we will randomly select three entries and compare the amounts per those entries to the bank reports held by the Originator.
- B.
- Aging schedule balances
- (i)

the invoices selected in 1.C., we will inquire of Originator's management whether they were aware of such receivables being due
from Debtors either in liquidation or receivership.
- (iii)
- Using the invoices selected in 1.C., we will inquire of Originator's management whether or not such receivables have been written-off on or prior to the Originator Daily Report date.

- Using the invoices selected in 1.C., we will compare the date on which each invoice was issued and the amount indicated on the face of each invoice to the corresponding entry date and amount contained within the Originators' books and records.
- D.
- Receivable outstanding balance
For each Originator Daily Report selected in 1.A., we will obtain an analysis from the originator's accounts receivable system that details the receivable balance by invoice. We will compare the total per the detail to the amount per the Originator Daily Report. We will randomly select one invoice per the detail analysis and perform the procedures described below.
- E.
- Aging category allocation
Using the invoices selected in 1.C., plus 7 more invoices per originator selected randomly from each calendar quarter, we will compare the outstanding balance of each receivable to the information contained within the Originators' books and records.
- 1.
- If the selected invoice due date is subsequent to the date of the Originator Daily Report, we will compare the selected invoice to the items within the "current /not yet due" Aging Category.
Using the invoices selected in 1.C. and the additional invoices selected in 1.D., we will perform the procedures described below:
Appendix-2
- 2.
- If the selected invoice due date is prior to the date of the Originator Daily Report, we will compute the age of such invoice by counting the number of days from such invoice due date to the date of the Originator Daily Report from which such invoice was selected. We will compare the age of the invoice as computed to the range of "days past due" Aging Category in which the selected invoice was included in the Originator Daily Report.
2. DAILY REPORT

non-US Dollar balances to US Dollars using the blended forward rate of exchange as indicated in the Daily Report.
- 2.
- For each Daily Report selected, we will obtain a detail analysis of the collection entries comprising the Initial Collections on the corresponding Originator Daily Reports detailed in 1 above and we will randomly select three entries from each detail analysis and compare the amounts per those entries to the bank statements held by the Huntsman Receivables Finance LLC.
- E.
- Currency breakdown
- 1.
- For each Daily Report selected, we will recalculate the currency percentages indicated in the Daily Report in relation to US Dollar, Pound Sterling and Euro receivables by dividing the aggregate US Dollar equivalent of the face amount of the receivables contributed on such day in various currencies by the total amount of receivables contributed on such day.
The Daily Reports selected in 2.A. above contain aging schedules with the following information:
Each of items (i) through (v) is hereafter referred to as an "Aging Category". We will compare the aging balance of each Aging Category per the aging schedules contained in the selected Daily Reports to the sum of each corresponding category from all the Originator Daily Reports produced on such day.
