Ladies and Gentlemen:

sell $485,787,000 principal amount of Floating Rate Class A Asset Backed Notes
(the "A Notes") and $35,825,000 principal amount of Floating Rate Class B Asset
Backed Notes (the "B Notes" and, together with the A Notes, the "Notes"), to the
several underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (collectively, the
"Underwriters"), for whom you are acting as representatives (the
"Representatives").
The assets of the Trust include, among other things, wholesale
receivables generated by Case Credit Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Case
Credit"), and New Holland Credit Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("New Holland"), from time to time in certain revolving floorplan
financing arrangements with selected agricultural and construction equipment
and/or parts dealers (the "Receivables", or in the case of the Receivables sold
by Case Credit to the Transferor, the "Case Receivables", and in the case of the
Receivables sold by New Holland to the Transferor, the "NH Receivables") and
collections on the Receivables. Certain Receivables existing at the opening of
business on August 31, 2003 (the "Cut-Off Date") have been, and substantially
all Receivables arising thereafter have been and will continue to be, sold,
assigned, transferred and conveyed by either Case Credit to the Transferor
pursuant to a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "Case Purchase Agreement"),
dated as of September 1, 2003, between the Transferor and Case Credit or by New
Holland to the Transferor pursuant to a Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "NH
Purchase Agreement" and, together with the Case Purchase Agreement, the
"Receivables Purchase Agreements"), dated as of September 1, 2003, between the
Transferor and New Holland. The Transferor has sold, assigned, transferred and
conveyed such property to the Issuer pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing
Agreement (the "Transfer and Servicing") dated as of September 1, 2003 among the
Transferor, Case Credit, as servicer (in such capacity, the "Servicer") and the
Issuer. The Issuer in turn has pledged such property to the Indenture Trustee
under the Indenture. The Receivables are serviced for the Trust by Case Credit.
The Notes will be issued pursuant to the Indenture to be dated as of September
1, 2003 (the "Indenture"), between the Trust and JPMorgan Chase Bank (the
"Indenture Trustee"), as supplemented by the Series 2003-1 Supplement to be
dated as of September 1, 2003 (the "Series Supplement"), between the Trust and
the Indenture Trustee.
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, or, if not
defined therein, in the Indenture or the Trust Agreement dated as of September
1, 2003 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the "Trust Agreement"),
between the Transferor and The Bank of New York, as owner trustee (the "Owner

(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Notes is
required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a result of which
the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were

with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of paragraph (a) of this

retirement of the Notes, or until such time as the Underwriters shall cease to
maintain a secondary market in the Notes, whichever occurs first, the Transferor
will deliver to you the annual statements of compliance and the annual
independent certified public accountants' reports furnished to the Owner Trustee
or the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, as
soon as such statements and reports are furnished to the Owner Trustee or the
Indenture Trustee.
(h) So long as any of the Notes is outstanding, the Transferor will
furnish to you (i) as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year all
documents required to be distributed to Noteholders or filed with the Commission
pursuant to the Exchange Act or any order of the Commission thereunder and (ii)

by the Transferor, the Transferor shall furnish such documents and take any such
other actions.

8. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) The Transferor and Case
Credit will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter
and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:
(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any
amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary
Basic Prospectus, Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, Basic Prospectus or
the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or
alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency
or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any
such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or
omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the
Transferor or Case Credit; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever (including, subject to
Section 8(c) hereof, the fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body,
commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue
statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to
the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above.
(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Transferor, its directors, each of its officers who signed the
Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Transferor
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the
indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section but only with respect to
untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made
in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary
prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Transferor by
such Underwriter through you expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or
any amendment thereto) or such preliminary Basic Prospectus, Preliminary
Prospectus Supplement, Basic Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto.
(c) Each indemnified party shall give prompt notice to each
indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which
indemnity may be sought hereunder and the indemnifying party, upon request of
the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the
indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, but failure to so notify an
indemnifying party shall not
13
relieve such indemnifying party from any liability that it may have otherwise
than on account of this indemnity agreement. In any proceeding hereunder any
indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party
unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually
agreed to the contrary, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a
reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party or (iii) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded
parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the
indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related
proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified
parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are
incurred. Any such separate firm for the Underwriters and such control persons
of Underwriters shall be designated in writing by the Representatives and any
such separate firm for Case Credit and the Transferor, the directors of Case
Credit and the Transferor, the officers of Case Credit and the Transferor who
sign the Registration Statement and such control persons of Case Credit and the
Transferor or authorized representatives shall be designated in writing by Case
Credit and the Transferor. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if
settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify any indemnified party from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying
party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect
any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in this Section 8 is
for any reason held to be unavailable other than in accordance with its terms,
the Transferor, Case Credit and the Underwriters shall contribute to the
aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature
contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Transferor and one or
more of the Underwriters, (i) in such proportions as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Underwriters and the Transferor and Case
Credit from the sale of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause
(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i)
above but also the relative fault of the Transferor and Case Credit on the one
hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or
omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received
by the Transferor and Case Credit on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion
as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes purchased under this
Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Transferor bear to the
total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters with
respect to the Notes purchased under this Agreement, in each case as set forth
in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus; provided, however, that no
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things,
14
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Transferor and Case Credit on the one hand or the Underwriters
on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or
omission. For purposes of this Section, each person, if any, who controls an
Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same
rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Transferor,
each officer of the Transferor who signed the Registration Statement, and each
person, if any, who controls the Transferor within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Transferor.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or
commission applicable to the Notes purchased by it hereunder.
9. DEFAULTS OF UNDERWRITERS. If any Underwriter or Underwriters
default in their obligations to purchase Notes hereunder on the Closing Date and
arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Transferor for the
purchase of such Notes by other persons are not made within 24 hours after such
default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any
nondefaulting Underwriter or the Transferor, except as provided in Section 11
(excluding any indemnity obligations of the Transferor to such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters) and except that, if the aggregate principal amount
of Notes which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriting agreed but failed to
purchase shall be 10% or less of the aggregate principal amount of all the Notes
set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated
severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the
aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth opposite their names in Schedule I
hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth opposite the
names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Notes which the defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase. As used in this
Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for an
Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting
Underwriter from liability for its default.
10. NO BANKRUPTCY PETITION. Each Underwriter covenants and agrees
that, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full
of all securities issued by the Transferor or by a trust for which the
Transferor was the depositor, which securities were rated by any nationally
recognized statistical rating organization, it will not institute against, or
join any other Person in instituting against, the Transferor any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other
proceedings under any Federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.
11. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND OBLIGATIONS. The respective
indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the
Transferor and Case Credit or any of their officers and each of the Underwriters
set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement or contained in certificates of
officers of the Transferor submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and
in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement,
(ii) any investigation or statement as to the results thereof made by or on
behalf of any Underwriter or of the Transferor or any of their respective
representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and (iii)
delivery of and payment for the Notes. If for any reason the purchase of the
Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Transferor shall remain
responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by the Transferor pursuant
to Section 6 and the respective
15
obligations of the Transferor and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 8 shall
remain in effect. If for any reason the purchase of the Notes by the
Underwriters is not consummated (other than because of a failure to satisfy the
conditions set forth in items (ii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of Section 7(d)), the
Transferor will reimburse any Underwriter, upon demand, for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably
incurred by it in connection with the offering of the Notes. Nothing contained
in this Section 11 shall limit the recourse of the Transferor against the
Underwriters.
12. NOTICES. All communications hereunder will be in writing and,
if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and

13. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers
and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 8, and no other
person will have any right or obligations hereunder. No purchaser of Notes from

because of such purchase.

connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and any action
under this Agreement taken by you will be binding upon all the Underwriters.
