ORGANIZATION
Section 2.01. Name. The Trust created hereby shall be known as “Hyundai Auto Receivables Trust
200[___],” in which name the Owner Trustee may conduct the business of the Trust, make and execute
contracts and other instruments on behalf of the Trust and xxx and be sued.
Section 2.02. Office. The office of the Trust shall be in care of the Owner Trustee at the
Corporate Trust Office or at such other address in Delaware as the Owner Trustee may designate by
written notice to the Certificateholders and the Depositor.
Section 2.03. Purposes and Powers. The purpose of the Trust is to engage in the following
activities and the Trust shall have the power and authority:
(a) to issue the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Trust Certificates pursuant to this
Agreement and to sell, transfer and exchange the Notes and the Trust Certificates and to pay
interest on and principal on the Notes and distributions on the Trust Certificates, all in
accordance with the Basic Documents;
(b) with the proceeds of the sale of the Notes and the Trust Certificates, to purchase the
Receivables, to fund the Reserve Account, to pay the organizational, start-up and
4
transactional expenses of the Trust and to pay the balance of such proceeds to the Depositor
pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement;
(c) to assign, grant, transfer, pledge, mortgage and convey the Trust Estate pursuant to the
Indenture and to hold, manage and distribute to the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement any portion of the Trust Estate released from
the Lien of, and remitted to the Trust pursuant to, the Indenture;
(d) to enter into and perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which it is to be a
party;
(e) to engage in those activities, including entering into agreements, that are necessary,
suitable or convenient to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected
therewith; and
(f) subject to compliance with the Basic Documents, to engage in such other activities as may
be required in connection with conservation of the Trust Estate and the making of distributions to
the Certificateholders and the Noteholders.
The Trust is hereby authorized to engage in the foregoing activities. The Trust shall not
engage in any activity other than in connection with the foregoing or other than as required or
authorized by the terms of this Agreement or the Basic Documents.
Section 2.04. Appointment of Owner Trustee. The Depositor hereby appoints the Owner Trustee as
trustee of the Trust effective as of the date hereof, to have all the rights, powers and duties set
forth herein.
Section 2.05. Initial Capital Contribution of Trust Estate. The Depositor hereby sells,
assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the Owner Trustee, as of the date hereof, the sum of
$1.00. The Owner Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt in trust from the Depositor, as of the date
hereof, of the foregoing contribution, which shall constitute the initial Trust Estate and shall be
deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account. The Depositor shall pay organizational expenses
of the Trust as they may arise or shall, upon the request of the Owner Trustee, promptly reimburse
the Owner Trustee for any such expenses paid by the Owner Trustee.
Section 2.06. Declaration of Trust. The Owner Trustee hereby declares that it will hold the
Trust Estate in trust upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit
of the Certificateholders, subject to the obligations of the Trust under the Basic Documents. It is
the intention of the parties hereto that the Trust constitute a statutory trust under the Statutory
Trust Act and that this Agreement constitute the governing instrument of such statutory trust. It
is the intention of the parties hereto that, for income and franchise tax purposes, until the Trust
Certificates are held by more than one Person, the Trust will be a grantor trust or disregarded as
an entity separate from the Depositor (or another Person that beneficially owns all of the Trust
Certificates) and the Notes will be characterized as debt. At such time that the Trust Certificates
are held by more than one Person, it is the intention of the parties hereto that, for income and
franchise tax purposes, the Trust shall be treated as a partnership or a grantor trust, with the
assets of the partnership or grantor trust being the Receivables and other assets held by the
Trust,
5
the partners of the partnership, or the grantors of the grantor trust, as applicable, being the
Certificateholders, and the Notes being debt of the partnership or the grantor trust. The Depositor
and the Certificateholders by acceptance of a Trust Certificate agree to such treatment and agree
to take no action inconsistent with such treatment. The parties agree that, unless otherwise
required by appropriate tax authorities, until the Trust Certificates are held by more than one
Person the Trust will not file or cause to be filed annual or other necessary tax returns, reports
and other forms inconsistent with the characterization of the Trust as a grantor trust or as a
disregarded entity of its owner. Effective as of the date hereof, the Owner Trustee shall have all
rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Statutory Trust Act with respect to
accomplishing the purposes of the Trust.
Section 2.07. Title to Trust Property. Subject to the Indenture, legal title to all the Trust
Estate shall be vested at all times in the Trust as a separate legal entity except where applicable
law in any jurisdiction requires title to any part of the Trust Estate to be vested in a trustee or
trustees, in which case title shall be deemed to be vested in the Owner Trustee, a co-trustee or a
separate trustee, as the case may be.
Section 2.08. Situs of Trust. The Trust will be located and administered in the State of
Delaware. All bank accounts maintained by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall be located
in the State of Delaware or the State of New York. The Trust shall not have any employees;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict or prohibit the Owner Trustee from having
employees within or without the State of Delaware. Payments will be received by the Trust only in
Delaware or New York, and payments will be made by the Trust only from Delaware or New York. The
only office of the Trust will be at the Corporate Trust Office in the State of Delaware.
Section 2.09. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Depositor. The Depositor hereby
represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee that:
(a) The Depositor is duly organized and validly existing as a corporation in good standing
under the laws of the State of Delaware, with power and authority to own its properties and to
conduct its business as such properties are currently owned and such business is presently
conducted.
(b) The Depositor is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing
and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the ownership
or lease of its property or the conduct of its business shall require such qualifications.
(c) The Depositor has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
and to carry out its terms; the Depositor has full power and authority to sell and assign the
property to be sold and assigned to and deposited with the Trust and the Depositor has duly
authorized such sale and assignment and deposit to the Trust by all necessary corporate action; and
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized by the
Depositor by all necessary corporate action.
6
(d) The Depositor has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and this Agreement
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Depositor, enforceable against the
Depositor, in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’
rights generally or by general equitable principles.
(e) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the fulfillment of
the terms hereof do not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of,
or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the articles and bylaws of
the Depositor, or any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Depositor is a party or
by which it is bound; nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its
properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement or other instrument (other than
pursuant to the Basic Documents); nor violate any law or, to the best of the Depositor’s knowledge,
any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Depositor of any court or of any federal or state
regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction
over the Depositor or its properties.
(f) There are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the Depositor,
threatened before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental
instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its properties (i) asserting the
invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially
and adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under, or the validity or
enforceability of, this Agreement.
(g) The representations and warranties of the Depositor in Section 3.02 of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement are true and correct.
Section 2.10. Federal Income Tax Allocations. If the Trust Certificates are held by more than
one Person, for federal income tax purposes each item of income, gain, loss, credit and deduction
for a month shall be allocated to the Certificateholders as of the first Record Date following the
end of such month in proportion to their Certificate Percentage Interests on such Record Date. The
Trust (or the Administrator in accordance with the Administration Agreement and Section 5.04) is
authorized to modify the allocations in this paragraph if necessary or appropriate, in its sole
discretion, for the allocations to fairly reflect the economic income, gain or loss to the
Certificateholders or otherwise comply with the requirements of the Code.
ARTICLE 3.
TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS
TRUST CERTIFICATES AND TRANSFER OF INTERESTS
Section 3.01. Initial Ownership. Upon the formation of the Trust by the contribution by the
Depositor pursuant to Section 2.05 and until the issuance of the Trust Certificates, the Depositor
shall be the sole beneficiary of the Trust.
Section 3.02. The Trust Certificates. The Trust Certificates shall be executed on behalf of
the Trust by manual or facsimile signature of an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Trust
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time
7
when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be
validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement and shall be valid and binding
obligations of the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to
be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not
hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates.
If a transfer of the Trust Certificates is permitted pursuant to Section 3.11, a transferee of
a Trust Certificate shall become a Certificateholder and shall be entitled to the rights and
subject to the obligations of a Certificateholder hereunder upon such transferee’s acceptance of a
Trust Certificate duly registered in such transferee’s name pursuant to Section 3.04.
Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Trust Certificates. On the Closing
Date, the Owner Trustee shall cause the Trust Certificates in an aggregate Certificate Percentage
Interest equal to 100% to be executed on behalf of the Trust, authenticated and delivered to or
upon the written order of the Depositor, signed by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust,
without further action by the Depositor, in authorized denominations. No Trust Certificate shall
entitle its Holder to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there
shall appear on such Trust Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form
set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Owner Trustee or [______], as the Owner Trustee’s
Authenticating Agent, by manual signature; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence
that such Trust Certificate shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Trust
Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
Section 3.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Trust Certificates. The Certificate
Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section
3.08, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of Trust Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of Trust Certificates as herein provided. [______] shall be the initial
Certificate Registrar.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office or agency
maintained pursuant to Section 3.08, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or
shall cause its Authenticating Agent to authenticate and deliver), in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like
aggregate amount dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any Authenticating Agent.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Trust Certificates may be exchanged for other Trust
Certificates of authorized denominations of a like aggregate amount upon surrender of the Trust
Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.08.
Every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee
and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the related Certificateholder or such
Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Trust Certificate surrendered
8
for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the
Owner Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Trust
Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates.
The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner Trustee shall not make,
and the Certificate Registrar shall not register transfers or exchanges of, Trust Certificates for
a period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Trust Certificates.
The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all
other rights and remedies with respect to the transfer of the Trust Certificates.
Section 3.05. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates. If (a) any mutilated
Trust Certificate shall be surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate
Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust
Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee
such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the
absence of notice that such Trust Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Owner
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Owner Trustee or the Owner Trustee’s
Authenticating Agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate of like tenor and
denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate under this Section, the
Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust
Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in
the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate
shall be found at any time.
Section 3.06. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Trust Certificate for
registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent may
treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as
the owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section
5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar or any Paying Agent shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.
Section 3.07. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Owner Trustee
shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer, the Paying Agent and the Depositor, within
15 days after receipt by the Owner Trustee of a written request therefor from the Servicer, the
Paying Agent or the Depositor, a list, in such form as the Servicer or the Depositor may reasonably
require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date.
The Certificate Registrar shall also furnish to the Owner Trustee and the Paying Agent a copy of
such list at any time there is a change therein. If (i) three or more Certificateholders or (ii)
one or more Holders of Trust Certificates evidencing not less than 50%
9
of the Certificate Percentage Interests apply in writing to the Owner Trustee, and such application
states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to
their rights under this Agreement or under the Trust Certificates and such application is
accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Owner
Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such
applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Certificateholders. Each
Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Trust Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not
to hold any of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason
of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was
derived. The Certificate Registrar shall upon the request of the Owner Trustee provide such list,
or access to such list, of Certificateholders as contemplated by this Section.
Section 3.08. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Trust shall designate in the State of
Delaware an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Trust and Owner
Trustee in respect of the Trust Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Trust
initially designates [______] as its office for such purposes. The Trust shall give prompt
written notice to the Depositor and the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the
Certificate Register or any such office or agency.
Section 3.09. Appointment of Paying Agent. The Paying Agent shall make distributions to
Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section 5.02 and shall
report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee. Any Paying Agent shall have the
revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of
making the distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the
Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall
have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect; provided,
however, the Owner Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or oversee the compliance by the Paying
Agent of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Basic Document. The Paying Agent
initially shall be [______], and any co-paying agent chosen by the Trust.
[______] shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written
notice to the Owner Trustee. In the event that [______] shall no longer be the Paying
Agent, the Depositor, with the consent of the Owner Trustee, shall appoint a successor to act as
Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Trust shall cause such successor Paying
Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed hereunder to execute and deliver to the Trust an
instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trust that, as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all
sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The
Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying
Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee. The
provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 8.01 shall apply to the Owner Trustee also in its role
as Paying Agent, for so long as the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent
applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the
Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 3.10. Form of Trust Certificates. The Trust Certificates, upon original issuance, will
be issued in the form of a typewritten Trust Certificate or Trust Certificates representing
definitive, fully registered Trust Certificates (the “Definitive Trust Certificates”) and shall be
registered in the name of the Depositor or upon order of the Depositor as the initial registered
owner thereof. The Owner Trustee shall execute and authenticate, or cause to be authenticated, the
Definitive Trust Certificates in accordance with the instructions of the Depositor. The Depositor
hereby orders the Owner Trustee to execute and authenticate, or cause to be authenticated, the
Definitive Trust Certificates. Neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Owner Trustee shall be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of the Trust Certificates, the Owner
Trustee and each Paying Agent shall recognize the Holders of the Trust Certificates as
Certificateholders. The Trust Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved, or may be
produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Owner Trustee, as evidenced by its
execution thereof.
Section 3.11. Transfer Restrictions. (a) No Trust Certificate may be resold, assigned or
transferred (including by pledge or hypothecation) unless such resale, assignment or transfer is
(i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, (ii) pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities
Act (“Rule 144A”) or (iii) pursuant to another exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and subject to the receipt by the Owner Trustee and the Depositor of (A) a
certification by the prospective transferee of the facts surrounding such transfer, which
certification shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor
and (B) if requested by the Owner Trustee, an opinion of counsel (which will not be at the expense
of the Owner Trustee), satisfactory to the Depositor and the Owner Trustee, to the effect that the
transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, and, in each case, in compliance with any
applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any state of the United States. In addition, each
transferee shall provide to the Owner Trustee its tax identification number, address, nominee name
(if applicable) and wire transfer instructions. Prior to any resale, assignment or transfer of the
Trust Certificates described in clause (ii) above, each prospective purchaser of the Trust
Certificates shall have acknowledged, represented and agreed as follows:
(1) It is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule
144A (“QIB”) and is acquiring the Trust Certificates for its own
institutional account (and not for the account of others) or as a fiduciary
or agent for others (which others also are QIBs).
(2) It acknowledges that the Trust Certificates have not been and
will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of
any jurisdiction.
(3) It is familiar with Rule 144A and is aware that the sale is
being made in reliance on Rule 144A and it is not acquiring the Trust
Certificates with a view to, or for resale in connection with, a
distribution that would constitute a public offering within the meaning of
the Securities Act or a violation of the Securities Act, and that, if in
the future it decides to resell, assign, pledge or otherwise transfer any
Trust Certificates, such Trust Certificates may be resold, assigned,
pledged or transferred only (i) to the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof,
(ii) so long as such Trust Certificate is
11
eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, to a person whom it reasonably
believes after due inquiry is a QIB acting for its own account (and not for
the account of others) or as a fiduciary or agent for others (which others
also are QIBs) to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge, assignment
or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (iii) pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (iv) in a
sale, pledge or other transfer made in a transaction otherwise exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act, in which case (A) the
Owner Trustee shall require that both the prospective transferor and the
prospective transferee certify to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor in
writing the facts surrounding such transfer, which certification shall be
in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor
and (B) the Owner Trustee shall require a written opinion of counsel (which
will not be at the expense of the Depositor or the Owner Trustee)
satisfactory to the Depositor and the Owner Trustee to the effect that such
transfer will not violate the Securities Act, in each case in accordance
with any applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any state of the
United States.
(4) It is aware that it (or any account for which it is
purchasing) may be required to bear the economic risk of an investment in
the Trust Certificates for an indefinite period, and it (or such account)
is able to bear such risk for an indefinite period.
(5) It understands that the Trust Certificates will bear legends
substantially as set forth in Section 3.12.
(6) If it is acquiring any Trust Certificates for the account of
one or more qualified institutional buyers, it represents that it has sole
investment discretion with respect to each such account and that it has
full power to make the foregoing acknowledgements, representations and
agreements on behalf of each such account.
(7) It (and any Person for which it holds Trust Certificates) has
neither acquired nor will it transfer any Trust Certificate it purchases
(or any interest therein) or cause any such Trust Certificate (or any
interest therein) to be marketed on or through an “established securities
market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Code, including,
without limitation, an over-the-counter-market or an interdealer quotation
system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations.
(8) It (and any Person for which it holds Trust Certificates,
collectively for purposes of this paragraph (8), a “transferee”) either (A)
is not, and will not become, a partnership, S corporation or grantor trust
for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) is such an entity, but none of
the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such
transferee have allowed or caused, or will allow or cause, 50% or more (or
such other percentage as the Owner Trustee may establish prior to the time
of such proposed transfer) of the value of such interests in the transferee
to be attributable to such transferee’s ownership of Trust Certificates.
(9) It understands that if it is acquiring any Trust Certificate
for the account of one or more Persons, (A) it shall provide to the Owner
Trustee and the Depositor information as to the number of such Persons and
any changes in the number
12
of such Persons and (B) any such change in the number of Persons for whose
account a Trust Certificate is held shall require the written consent of
the Owner Trustee, which consent shall be granted unless the Owner Trustee
determines that such proposed change in number of Persons would create a
risk that the Trust would be classified for federal or any applicable state
tax purposes as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable
as a corporation.
(10) It understands that no subsequent transfer of the Trust
Certificates (or any interest therein) is permitted unless (A) such
transfer is of a Trust Certificate with a Certificate Percentage Interest
of at least 5%, (B) it causes its proposed transferee to provide to the
Owner Trustee and the Depositor a letter substantially in the form of
Exhibit C hereto, or such other written statement as the Owner Trustee
shall prescribe and (C) the Trust consents in writing to the proposed
transfer, which consent shall be granted unless the Owner Trustee
determines that such transfer would either create a risk that the Trust
would be classified for federal or any applicable state tax purposes as an
association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation;
provided, however, that any attempted transfer that would cause the number
of beneficial owners of Trust Certificates in the aggregate to exceed 100
or otherwise cause the Trust to become a publicly traded partnership for
income tax purposes shall be a void transfer.
(11) It understands that the Opinion of Counsel to the Trust that
the Trust is not a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation is
dependent in part on the accuracy of the representations in paragraphs (7),
(8), (9) and (10) above.
(12) It is a United States Person within the meaning of Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code.
(13) It acknowledges that the Owner Trustee, the Depositor, and
their Affiliates, and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the
foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements.
Each transferee of the Trust Certificates shall be required to execute or to have executed a
representation letter substantially in the form of Exhibit C, or may deliver such other
representations (or an opinion of counsel) as may be approved by the Owner Trustee and the
Depositor, to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from registration
under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws.
In addition, such prospective purchaser shall be responsible for providing additional
information or certification, as shall be reasonably requested by the Owner Trustee or the
Depositor, to support the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and
agreements, it being understood that such additional information is not intended to create
additional restrictions on the transfer of the Trust Certificates. Neither the Depositor, the Trust
nor the Owner Trustee shall be obligated to register or monitor compliance with the Trust
Certificates under the Securities Act or any state securities or “Blue Sky” laws.
In determining compliance with the transfer restrictions contained in this Section, the Owner
Trustee may rely upon a written opinion of counsel (which may include in-house
13
counsel of the transferor), the cost of obtaining which shall be an expense of the Holder of the
Certificate to be transferred.
(b) The Trust Certificates may not be acquired by or for the account of (i) an “employee
benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of
ERISA, (ii) a “plan” described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (iii) any entity whose
underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in the entity (each, a
“Benefit Plan”). By accepting and holding a Trust Certificate, the Holder thereof shall be deemed
to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.
Section 3.12. Legending of Trust Certificates. Each Trust Certificate shall bear a legend in
substantially the following form, unless the Depositor determines otherwise in accordance with
applicable law:
THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER
APPLICABLE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE RESOLD,
ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS, PURSUANT TO AN
EXEMPTION THEREFROM OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT THERETO. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS
TRUST CERTIFICATE, AGREES THAT THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE RESOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR
TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) SO LONG AS THE TRUST CERTIFICATE IS ELIGIBLE FOR RESALE PURSUANT TO RULE 144A
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, TO THE PERSON WHOM THE TRANSFEROR REASONABLY BELIEVES AFTER DUE INQUIRY
IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER ACTING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT (AND NOT FOR THE ACCOUNT OF OTHERS)
OR AS A FIDUCIARY OR AGENT FOR OTHERS (WHICH OTHERS ALSO ARE QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYERS) TO
WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE RESALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE OR TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON
RULE 144A, (B) TO A UNITED STATES PERSON WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 7701(a)(30) OF THE CODE, (C)
PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION
EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND OTHER SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY”
LAWS. IN SUCH CASE THE OWNER TRUSTEE SHALL REQUIRE (I) THAT THE PROSPECTIVE TRANSFEREE CERTIFY TO
THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE DEPOSITOR IN WRITING THE FACTS SURROUNDING SUCH TRANSFER, WHICH
CERTIFICATION SHALL BE IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND (II) IF
REQUESTED BY THE OWNER TRUSTEE, A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH SHALL NOT BE AT THE EXPENSE OF
THE OWNER TRUSTEE OR THE DEPOSITOR) SATISFACTORY TO THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE DEPOSITOR, TO THE
EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSFER WILL NOT VIOLATE THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY
APPLICABLE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS OF ANY STATE OR JURISDICTION. ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER IN
CONTRAVENTION OF THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING RESTRICTIONS WILL BE VOID AB INITIO AND
14
THE PURPORTED TRANSFEROR WILL CONTINUE TO BE TREATED AS THE OWNER OF THE TRUST CERTIFICATE FOR ALL
PURPOSES.
NO TRUST CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE ACQUIRED BY OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF (I) AN
“EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN” (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3(3) OF ERISA) THAT IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF
TITLE I OF ERISA, (II) A “PLAN” DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4975(E)(1) OF THE CODE OR (III) ANY ENTITY
WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE PLAN ASSETS BY REASON OF A PLAN’S INVESTMENT IN THE ENTITY (EACH, A
“BENEFIT PLAN”). BY ACCEPTING AND HOLDING A TRUST CERTIFICATE, THE HOLDER THEREOF SHALL BE DEEMED
TO HAVE REPRESENTED AND WARRANTED THAT IT IS NOT A BENEFIT PLAN.
Section 3.13. Authenticating Agent.
(a) The Owner Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents (each, an “Authenticating
Agent”) with respect to the Certificates which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Owner
Trustee in authenticating the Certificates in connection with the issuance, delivery, registration
of transfer, exchange or repayment of the Certificates. The Owner Trustee hereby appoints
[______] as Authenticating Agent for the authentication of Certificates upon
any registration of transfer or exchange of such Certificates. Whenever reference is made in this
Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Owner Trustee or the Owner Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication on behalf
of the Owner Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on
behalf of the Owner Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent (other than
[______]) shall be subject to acceptance by the Depositor.
(b) Any institution succeeding to the corporate agency business of an Authenticating Agent
shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of the Owner Trustee or such Authenticating Agent.
(c) An Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to
the Owner Trustee and the Depositor. The Owner Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an
Authenticating Agent by giving notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the
Depositor. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at
any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be acceptable to the Owner Trustee or the
Depositor, the Owner Trustee promptly may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent with the consent
of the Depositor. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder
shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent.
(d) The Depositor shall pay the Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation
for its services under this Section 3.13. The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04, 7.06, 8.01
and 8.02 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.
15
(e) Pursuant to an appointment made under this Section 3.13, the Certificates may have
endorsed thereon, in lieu of the Owner Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate
certificate of authentication in substantially the following form:
This is one of the Certificates referred to in the within mentioned Agreement.
as Owner Trustee | ||||
By: | ||||
Authorized Officer | ||||
or | ||||
as Authenticating Agent for the Owner Trustee, | ||||

provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by the Certificateholders may be embodied in and
evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such
Certificateholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are
delivered to the Owner Trustee and, when required, to the Depositor or the Servicer. Proof of
execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for
any purpose of this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Owner Trustee, the Depositor and the
Servicer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 3.14.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Certificateholder of any such instrument or
writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Owner Trustee deems sufficient. Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act by a
Certificateholder shall bind every Holder of every Certificate issued upon the registration of
transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, or
omitted to be done, by the Owner Trustee, the Depositor or the Servicer in reliance thereon,
regardless of whether notation of such action is made upon such Certificate.
16
(c) The Owner Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this
Section 3.14 as it shall deem necessary.

Estate; provided that the Owner Trustee may rely on advice of counsel with respect to such
obligation.
Section 6.03. Action upon Instruction.
(a) Subject to Article IV and in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the
Servicer may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the management of the Trust. Such
direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction of the Servicer pursuant to Article
IV.
(b) The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any Basic
Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by
counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner
21
Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to
law.
(c) Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action
permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or under any Basic Document, the Owner Trustee
shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the
Servicer of record as of the preceding Record Date requesting instruction as to the course of
action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with any
written instruction of such Servicer received, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of
such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction
within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified
in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to,
take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic
Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have
no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.
(d) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of
this Agreement or any Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or
is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this
Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the
course of action that the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of
facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the
circumstances) to the Servicer requesting instruction and, to the extent that the Owner Trustee
acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, the
Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the
Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or
within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be
necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from
taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents, as it shall deem to
be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for
such action or inaction.
Section 6.04. No Duties Except as Specified in this Agreement or in Instructions. The Owner
Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to,
register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take
or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to
which the Owner Trustee or the Trust is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this
Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to
Section 6.03, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any Basic
Document against the Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any
financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or
maintain the perfection of any security interest or Lien granted to it hereunder or to prepare or
file any SEC filing or tax filing for the Trust or to record this Agreement or any Basic Document.
The Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all
action as may be necessary to discharge any Liens on any part of the Trust Estate that result from
actions by, or claims against, the Owner Trustee in
22
its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust
Estate.
Section 6.05. No Action Except Under Specified Documents or Instructions. The Owner Trustee
shall not manage, control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust
Estate except (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the
Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the Basic Documents or (iii) in
accordance with any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section
6.03.
Section 6.06. Restrictions. The Owner Trustee shall not take any action that, to its actual
knowledge, (a) is inconsistent with the purposes of the Trust set forth in Section 2.03 or (b)
would result in the Trust becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes or for
state or local income or franchise tax purposes. The Certificateholders and Servicer shall not
direct the Owner Trustee to take any action that would violate the provisions of this Section.

the registration with, or the taking of any other action required by, any state or other
governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (ii) result

the event that said counsel advises the Owner Trustee that such action will result in such
consequences, the Trust will appoint an additional trustee pursuant to Section 10.05 hereof to

surrendered for cancellation, the Owner Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent
to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of
their Trust Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that
shall remain subject to this Agreement. Any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such

laws.

authorized to exercise corporate trust powers; having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities; and having

set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Owner
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02.
Section 10.02. Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee. The Owner Trustee may at any time
resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the
Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies. Upon receiving such notice of
resignation, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner
Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been
so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.
If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of Section 10.01 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator, or
if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or
insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Administrator may remove the Owner
Trustee. If the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee under the authority of the immediately
preceding sentence, the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner
Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee, and shall pay all fees owed to the
outgoing Owner Trustee.
Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of
appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 and payment of all fees and
expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of such
resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to each Rating Agency.
Section 10.03. Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to
Section 10.01 or 10.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its
predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective, and
such successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully
vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement,
with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall, upon
payment of its fees and expenses, deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and
statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Administrator and the predecessor
Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments
29
and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and
confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the
time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section, the
Administrator shall mail notice thereof to all Certificateholders, the Servicer, the Indenture
Trustee, the Noteholders and the Rating Agencies. If the Administrator shall fail to mail such
notice within 10 days after acceptance of such appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the
successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Administrator.
Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 10.03 shall promptly file an
amendment to the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State identifying the name and
principal place of business of such successor Owner Trustee in the State of Delaware.
Section 10.04. Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Any Person into which the Owner
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any
Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Owner Trustee,
shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any
instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding; provided, that such Person shall be eligible pursuant to Section 10.01;
and provided further, that the Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or consolidation to
each Rating Agency; and provided further, that such successor Owner Trustee shall file an amendment
to the Certificate of Trust as described in Section 10.03.
Section 10.05. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any
jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate or any Financed Vehicle may at the time be
located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall
execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Administrator
and Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee or
separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such
capacity, such title to the Trust Estate or any part thereof and, subject to the other provisions
of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the
Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in
such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee
alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this
Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Owner Trustee pursuant
to Section 10.01 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be
required pursuant to Section 10.03.
Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and
act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
30
(a) All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee
shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee
or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not
authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent
that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the
Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate
trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;
(b) No trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or
omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and
(c) The Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the
resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been
given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of
them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement
and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of
appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein,
subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this
Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the
Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given
to the Administrator.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or
attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any
lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate
trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its
estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor co-trustee
or separate trustee.

amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the
timing of, collections of payments on Receivables or distributions that shall be required to be
made for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes and the Certificate Percentage Interest required
to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all then-outstanding Notes
and Trust Certificates.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Owner Trustee shall furnish
written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Certificateholder, the
Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders or Noteholders pursuant to
this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be
sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such
consents (and any other consents of Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any
other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by
Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may
prescribe.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee
shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State.
Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or the Certificate of Trust, the
Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the
execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Owner Trustee may,
but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Owner Trustee’s own
rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.
In connection with the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or any amendment of any
other agreement to which the Trust is a party, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and
conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment is authorized or
permitted by the Basic Documents and that all conditions precedent in the Basic Documents for the
execution and delivery thereof by the Trust or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, have been
satisfied.

notice.

unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any

unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, each of the Depositor and its permitted

Certificateholder.
Section 11.08. Covenants of the Depositor. The Depositor will not at any time institute
against the Trust any bankruptcy proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or

Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents.
Section 11.09. No Petition. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Owner
Trustee, by entering into this Agreement, each Certificateholder, by accepting a Trust Certificate,
and the Indenture Trustee and each Noteholder, by accepting the benefits of this Agreement, hereby
covenant and agree that they will not at any time institute against the Depositor or the Trust or
join in any institution against the Depositor or the Trust of, any bankruptcy proceedings under any
United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations
relating to the Trust Certificates, the Notes, this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.
Section 11.10. No Recourse.
(a) Each Certificateholder by accepting a Trust Certificate acknowledges that such Trust
Certificate represents a beneficial interest in the Trust only and does not represent an interest
in or an obligation of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse may be had against such parties or their
assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated in this Agreement, the Trust
Certificates or the Basic Documents.
(b) In furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, to the extent the Depositor
enters into other securitization transactions, each Certificateholder, by accepting a Trust
Certificate, acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right, title or interest in or to any
assets or interests therein of the Depositor (other than the Trust Estate and Reserve Account
relating to this transaction) conveyed or purported to be conveyed by the Depositor to another
securitization trust or other Person or Persons in connection therewith (whether by way of a sale,
capital contribution or by virtue of the granting of a lien) (“Other Assets”). To the extent that,
notwithstanding the agreements and provisions contained herein, a Certificateholder either (i)
asserts an interest or claim to, or benefit from, Other Assets, whether asserted against or through
the Depositor or any other Person owned by the Depositor, or (ii) is deemed to have any such
interest, claim or benefit in or from Other Assets, whether by operation of law, legal process,
pursuant to applicable provisions of insolvency laws or otherwise (including by virtue of Section
1111(b) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor provision having similar effect under the

owned by the Depositor, then each Certificateholder, by accepting a Trust Certificate, further
acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim or benefit in or from Other Assets is and
shall be expressly subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full of all obligations and
liabilities of the Depositor which, under the terms of the relevant documents relating to the
securitization of such Other Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the
34
benefits of, or otherwise secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or
security interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to priority of distribution or
application under applicable law, including insolvency laws, and whether asserted against Depositor

such other obligations and liabilities. This subordination agreement shall be deemed a
subordination agreement within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each
Certificateholder, by acceptance of a Trust Certificate, further acknowledges and agrees that no
adequate remedy at law exists for a breach of this paragraph and the terms of this paragraph may be
enforced by an action for specific performance. The provisions of this paragraph shall be for the
third party benefit of those entitled to rely thereon and shall survive the termination of this

ASSET BACKED TRUST CERTIFICATE
(This Trust Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of Hyundai ABS Funding
Corporation or any of its Affiliates, except to the extent described below.) (This Trust
Certificate is subordinate to the Notes, as set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement)
THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER
APPLICABLE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE RESOLD,
ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS, PURSUANT TO AN
EXEMPTION THEREFROM OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT THERETO. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS
TRUST CERTIFICATE, AGREES THAT THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE RESOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR
TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) SO LONG AS THE CERTIFICATE IS ELIGIBLE FOR RESALE PURSUANT TO RULE 144A UNDER

PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION

THE OWNER TRUSTEE) SATISFACTORY TO THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE DEPOSITOR, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH
TRANSFER WILL NOT VIOLATE THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE
SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS OF ANY STATE OR JURISDICTION. ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER IN CONTRAVENTION
OF THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING RESTRICTIONS WILL BE VOID AB INITIO AND THE PURPORTED TRANSFEROR WILL
CONTINUE TO BE TREATED AS THE OWNER OF THE TRUST CERTIFICATE FOR ALL PURPOSES.
A-1
NO TRUST CERTIFICATE OR INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE ACQUIRED BY OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF (I) AN
“EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN” (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3(3) OF ERISA) THAT IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF
TITLE I OF ERISA, (II) A “PLAN” DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4975(E)(1) OF THE CODE OR (III) ANY ENTITY
WHOSE UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE PLAN ASSETS BY REASON OF A PLAN’S INVESTMENT IN THE ENTITY (EACH, A
“BENEFIT PLAN”). BY ACCEPTING AND HOLDING A TRUST CERTIFICATE, THE HOLDER THEREOF SHALL BE DEEMED
TO HAVE REPRESENTED AND WARRANTED THAT IT IS NOT A BENEFIT PLAN.
THIS CERTIFIES THAT [______] is the registered owner of a 100% Certificate Percentage
Interest that is nonassessable, fully-paid, beneficial ownership interest in the assets of Hyundai
Auto Receivables Trust 200[___](the “Trust”) formed by Hyundai ABS Funding Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the “Depositor”).
The Trust is governed by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement dated as of [______],
200[___] (the “Trust Agreement”),
between the Depositor, Administrator and
[______], as
owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is
set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have
the meanings assigned to them in the Sale and Servicing Agreement among the Trust, the Depositor,
Hyundai Motor Finance Company, as Seller and Servicer (the
“Servicer”) and [______], as
Indenture Trustee (“Indenture Trustee”), dated as of
[______], 200[___], as the same may be
amended or supplemented from time to time.
This Certificate is one of the duly authorized Trust Certificates designated as Hyundai Auto
Receivables Trust 200[___] Asset Backed Trust Certificates (herein called the “Trust Certificates”).
Also issued under the Indenture dated as of
[______], 200[___], between the Trust and the
Indenture Trustee, are seven classes of Notes, designated as [___]% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1,
[___]% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-2, [___]% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-3, [___]% Asset Backed
Notes, Class A-4 (collectively, the “Class A Notes”), [___]% Asset Backed Notes, Class B (the
“Class B Notes”), [___]% Asset Backed Notes, Class C (the “Class C Notes”), and [___]% Asset Backed
Notes, Class D (the “Class D Notes” and, together with the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, and
the Class C Notes, the “Notes”). This Trust Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the holder of
this Trust Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such holder is
bound. Under the Trust Agreement, there will be distributed on the [___] day of each month (or, if
such [___] day is not a Business Day, the next
Business Day), commencing on[______], 200[___], to
the Person in whose name this Trust Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last
day of the preceding month, such Certificateholder’s Certificate Percentage Interest of any amounts
available to be distributed to Certificateholders on such date.
The holder of this Trust Certificate acknowledges and agrees that its rights to receive
distributions in respect of this Trust Certificate are subordinated to the rights of the
Noteholders as described in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the Trust
Agreement, as applicable.
A-2
It is the intent of the Depositor and the Certificateholders that, for purposes of federal
income, state and local income and franchise tax, until the Trust Certificates are beneficially
owned by more than one Person, the Trust will be either a grantor trust or disregarded as an entity
separate from its owner. At such time that the Trust Certificates are beneficially owned by more
than one Person, it is the intent of the Depositor and the Certificateholders that, for purposes of
federal income, state and local income and franchise tax, the Trust will be treated as a
partnership or grantor trust, the assets of which are the assets held by the Trust, and the
Certificateholders will be treated as partners in that partnership or grantors in that grantor
trust, as applicable. The Depositor and the Certificateholders, by acceptance of a Trust
Certificate, agree to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the Trust as
such for tax purposes.
Each Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Trust Certificate, covenants and agrees that
such Certificateholder will not at any time institute against the Depositor, or join in or
encourage any institution against the Depositor of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Trust
Certificates, the Notes, the Trust Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.
Each Certificateholder by accepting a Trust Certificate acknowledges that such
Certificateholder’s Trust Certificates represent beneficial interests in the Trust only and do not
represent interests in or obligations of Depositor, the Servicer, Administrator, Seller, Owner
Trustee, Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse may be had against such parties
or their assets, except as expressly set forth or contemplated in the Trust Agreement, the Trust
Certificates or the Basic Documents. In furtherance of and not in derogation of the foregoing, each
Certificateholder, by accepting a Trust Certificate, acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no
right, title or interest in or to any assets or interests therein of the Depositor (other than the
Trust Estate and Reserve Account relating to this transaction) conveyed or purported to be conveyed
by the Depositor to another securitization trust or other Person or Persons in connection therewith
(whether by way of a sale, capital contribution or by virtue of the granting of a lien) (“Other
Assets”). To the extent that, notwithstanding the agreements and provisions contained herein, a
Certificateholder either (i) asserts an interest or claim to, or benefit from, Other Assets,
whether asserted against or through the Depositor or any other Person owned by the Depositor, or
(ii) is deemed to have any such interest, claim or benefit in or from Other Assets, whether by
operation of law, legal process, pursuant to applicable provisions of insolvency laws or otherwise
(including by virtue of Section 1111(b) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor provision
having similar effect under the Bankruptcy Code), and whether deemed asserted against or through
the Depositor or any other Person owned by the Depositor, then each Certificateholder, by accepting
a Trust Certificate, further acknowledges and agrees that any such interest, claim or benefit in or
from Other Assets is and shall be expressly subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full of all
obligations and liabilities of the Depositor which, under the terms of the relevant documents
relating to the securitization of such Other Assets, are entitled to be paid from, entitled to the
benefits of, or otherwise secured by such Other Assets (whether or not any such entitlement or
security interest is legally perfected or otherwise entitled to priority of distribution or
application under applicable law, including insolvency laws, and whether asserted against Depositor
or any other Person owned by the Depositor), including the payment of post-petition interest on
such other obligations and
A-3
liabilities. This subordination agreement shall be deemed a subordination agreement within the
meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Certificateholder, by acceptance of a Trust
Certificate, further acknowledges and agrees that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach of
this paragraph and the terms of this paragraph may be enforced by an action for specific
performance. The provisions of this paragraph shall be for the third party benefit of those
entitled to rely thereon and shall survive the termination of the Trust Agreement.
The Trust Certificates may not be acquired by or for the account of (i) an “employee benefit
plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA,
(ii) a “plan” described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (iii) any entity whose underlying
assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in the entity (each, a “Benefit Plan”).
By accepting and holding a Trust Certificate, the Holder thereof shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by an authorized
officer of Owner Trustee, by manual signature, this Trust Certificate shall not entitle the holder
hereof to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or be valid for
any purpose.
THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Ladies and Gentlemen: |
In connection with our proposed purchase of the [___]% Certificate Percentage Interest Asset
Backed Trust Certificates (the “Trust Certificates”) of Hyundai Auto Receivables Trust 200[___] (the
“Issuer”), a trust formed by Hyundai ABS Funding Corporation (the “Depositor”), we confirm that:
a. We are a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A (“QIB”) and are acquiring
the Trust Certificate for our own institutional account (and not for the account of others) or as a
fiduciary or agent for others (which others also are QIBs);
b. We acknowledge that the Trust Certificates have not been and will not be registered under
the Securities Act or the securities laws of any jurisdiction;
c. We are familiar with Rule 144A and are aware that the sale is being made in reliance on
Rule 144A and we are not acquiring the Trust Certificates with a view to, or for resale in
connection with, a distribution that would constitute a public offering within the meaning of the
Securities Act or a violation of the Securities Act, and that, if in the future we decide to
resell, assign, pledge or otherwise transfer any Trust Certificates, such Trust Certificates may be
resold, assigned, pledged or transferred only (i) to the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof, (ii)
so long as such Trust Certificate is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, to a person whom we
reasonably believe after due inquiry is a QIB acting for its own account (and not for the account
of others) or as a fiduciary or agent for others (which others also are QIBs) to whom notice is
given that the resale, pledge, assignment or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (iii)
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (iv) in a sale, pledge
or other transfer made in a transaction otherwise exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, in which case (A) the Owner Trustee will require that both the prospective
transferor and the prospective transferee certify to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor in writing
the facts surrounding such transfer, which certification shall be in form and substance
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor and (B) the Owner Trustee will require a
written opinion of counsel (which will not be at the expense of the Depositor or the Owner Trustee)
satisfactory to the Depositor and the Owner Trustee to the
C-1
effect that such transfer will not violate the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any
applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any state of the United States;
d. We have neither acquired nor will we transfer any Trust Certificate we purchase (or any
interest therein) or cause any such Trust Certificate (or any interest therein) to be marketed on
or through an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Code,
including, without limitation, an over-the-counter-market or an interdealer quotation system that
regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations.
e. We either (A) are not, and will not become, a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or
grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) are such an entity, but none of the
direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in us have allowed or caused, or will
allow or cause, 50% or more (or such other percentage as the Owner Trustee may establish prior to
the time of such proposed transfer) of the value of such interests in us to be attributable to our
ownership of Trust Certificates.
f. We (A) are acquiring the Trust Certificate for the account of [___] Persons and we will
notify the Owner Trustee of any changes in the number of such Persons and (B) understand that any
such change in the number of Persons for whose account a Trust Certificate is held shall require
the written consent of the Owner Trustee, which consent shall be granted unless the Owner Trustee
determines that such proposed change in number of Persons would create a risk that the Trust would
be classified for federal or any applicable state tax purposes as an association (or a publicly
traded partnership) taxable as a corporation.
g. We understand that no subsequent transfer of the Trust Certificates is permitted unless (A)
such transfer is of a Trust Certificate with a Certificate Percentage Interest of at least 5%, (B)
we cause the proposed transferee to provide to the Owner Trustee and the Depositor a letter
substantially in the form of this Exhibit C to the Trust Agreement or such other written statement
as the Owner Trustee shall prescribe and (C) the Trust consents in writing to the proposed
transfer, which consent shall be granted unless the Owner Trustee determines that such transfer
would create a risk that the Trust would be classified for federal or any applicable state tax
purposes as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation; provided,
however, that any attempted transfer that would either cause the number of registered holders of
Trust Certificates in the aggregate to exceed 100 or otherwise cause the Trust to become a publicly
traded partnership for income tax purposes shall be a void transfer.
h. We understand that the Opinion of Counsel to the Trust that the Trust is not a publicly
traded partnership taxable as a corporation is dependent in part on the accuracy of the
representations in paragraphs (d), (e), (f) and (g) above.
i. We are a United States Person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code.
j. No Trust Certificate will be acquired or held by or for the account of (i) an employee
benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title I of
ERISA, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (iii) any entity whose underlying
assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in the entity. Each Person
C-2
who acquires any Trust Certificate or interest therein will certify that the foregoing conditions
are satisfied.
k. We are aware that we (or any account for which we are purchasing) may be required to bear
the economic risk of an investment in the Trust Certificates for an indefinite period, and we (or
such account) are able to bear such risk for an indefinite period.
l. We understand that the Trust Certificates will bear legends substantially as set forth in
Section 3.12 of the Trust Agreement;
m. If we are acquiring any Trust Certificates for the account of one or more QIB, we represent
that we have sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and that we have full
power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements on behalf of each such
account; and
n. We acknowledge that the Owner Trustee, the Depositor, and their Affiliates, and others will
rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements.
You are entitled to rely upon this letter and are irrevocably authorized to produce this
letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceedings or
official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.
