THE
FACILITY, ADVANCE PROCEDURES AND NOTE
SECTION
2.1. Facility.
On the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each
Noncommitted Lender may, in its sole discretion, make Advances (to the extent
of
its Available Commitment Amount) to the Borrower on a revolving basis from
time
to time during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the
Facility Termination Date, in each case in such amounts as may be requested
by
the Borrower pursuant to Section
2.2.
If on
any day there shall be more than one Noncommitted Lender, any Advance requested
by the Borrower on such day shall be allocated among the Noncommitted Lenders
pro rata
on the
basis of their respective Noncommitted Percentages and each Noncommitted Lender
may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine whether to make an Advance
in its allocated amount. If a Noncommitted
Lender elects not to make a requested Advance, each of the Committed Lenders
with respect to such Noncommitted Lender shall make Advances (in an aggregate
amount equal to the requested Advance) to the Borrower (to the extent of the
unutilized Commitment of each such Committed Lender and pro rata
among
such Committed Lenders in accordance with their respective Adjusted Commitment
Percentages) on a revolving basis from time to time during the period commencing
on the Effective Date and ending on the Facility Termination Date. The lending
arrangement made available to the Borrower pursuant to the preceding sentences
of this Section
2.1
is
herein called the “Facility”.
The
aggregate principal amount of all Advances from time to time outstanding
hereunder shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the Facility Limit and (b) the
Initial Borrowing Base. In addition, under no circumstances shall any Lender
make any Advance if after giving effect thereto the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of all Advances owing to such Lender would exceed (i) if
such
Lender is a Noncommitted Lender, its Maximum Loan Amount or (ii) if such Lender
is a Committed Lender, its applicable Commitment. Within the limits of the
Facility, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow under this Section
2.1.
No
additional Advances may be made if the Backup Servicer shall be acting as
Servicer.
-

[**CONFIDENTIAL

SECTION
2.2. Advance
Procedures.
The
Borrower may request an Advance hereunder by giving notice to the
Administrative/Collateral Agent of a proposed Advance not later than 1:00 P.M.,
New York time, three Business Days prior to the proposed date of such Advance.
Each such notice (herein called an “Advance
Request”)
shall
be in the form of Exhibit
A
and
shall include the date and amount of such proposed Advance and the Schedule
of
Contracts setting forth the information required therein with respect to the
Contracts, if any, to be acquired by the Borrower on the date such Advance
is
requested to be made. No more than two Advance Requests may be made in any
calendar week. Any Advance Request given by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section
2.2
shall be
irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. The Administrative/Collateral Agent
shall promptly forward a copy of each Advance Request received by it to each
Agent and each Lender. The Administrative/Collateral Agent shall have no
obligation to lend funds hereunder.
Each
Noncommitted Lender shall notify the Agent for its Lender Group by 10:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the applicable requested date of Advance whether it
has
elected to make the Advance requested of it pursuant to the preceding paragraph.
In the event that a Noncommitted Lender shall not have timely provided such
notice, such Noncommitted Lender shall be deemed to have elected not to make
such Advance. Such Agent shall notify each Committed Lender for such
Noncommitted Lender on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
applicable requested date of Advance if such Noncommitted Lender has not elected
to advance its entire Noncommitted Percentage of the Advance requested, which
notice shall specify (i) the identity of such Noncommitted Lender, (ii) the
portion of the Advance which such Noncommitted Lender has not elected to advance
as provided above, and (iii) the respective Adjusted Commitment Percentages
of
such Committed Lenders on such requested date of Advance (as determined by
such
Agent in good faith; for purposes of such determination, such Agent shall be
entitled to rely conclusively on the most recent information provided by such
Noncommitted Lender or its agent or by the agent for its Support Parties).
Subject to receiving such notice and to the satisfaction of the applicable
conditions set forth in Article VI hereof, each of
such
Noncommitted Lender’s Committed Lenders shall make a loan on the applicable
requested date of Advance in an amount equal to its Adjusted Commitment
Percentage of the portion of the Advance which such Noncommitted Lender has
not
elected to advance, in an amount equal to its share of the Advance so
loaned.

above
shall be made available to the Borrower by deposit to such account as may be
designated by the Borrower (in a written notice received by the
Administrative/Collateral Agent at least one Business Day prior to the date
of
such Advance) in same day funds no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on
the date of such Advance.
In
the
event that notwithstanding the fulfillment of the applicable conditions set
forth in Article VII hereof with respect to an Advance, a Noncommitted
Lender elected to make an Advance but failed to make its portion thereof
available to the Administrative/Collateral Agent when required pursuant to
the
preceding paragraph, such Noncommitted Lender shall be deemed to have rescinded
its election to make such advance, and neither the Borrower nor any other party
shall have any claim against such Noncommitted Lender by reason of its failure
to timely make such advance. In any such case, the Administrative/Collateral
Agent shall give notice of such failure not later than 2:30 p.m., New York
City time, on the requested date of Advance to each Committed Lender for
such Noncommitted Lender and to the Agent for its Lender Group, the Borrower
and
the Servicer, which notice shall specify (i) the identity of such Noncommitted
Lender, (ii) the amount of the advance which it had elected but failed to make
and (iii) the respective Adjusted Commitment Percentages of such Committed
Lenders on such date (as determined by the related Agent). Subject to receiving
such notice, each of such Noncommitted Lender’s Committed Lenders shall lend a
portion of the requested Advance in an amount equal to its Adjusted Commitment
Percentage of the amount described in clause (ii) above at or before
4:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date and otherwise in
accordance with this Section 2.3. Subject to the Administrative/Collateral
Agent’s receipt of such funds, the Administrative/Collateral Agent will not
later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date make such funds
available in accordance with the provisions of the preceding
paragraph.

SECTION
2.4. Notes.
All
Advances by the Lenders in a Lender Group shall be further evidenced by a Note,
executed by the Borrower, with appropriate insertions, payable to the order
of
the Agent for such Lender Group. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes
each
Agent to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached
to the Notes (or on any continuation of such grid, or at such Agent’s option, in
its records), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia,
the
date of the outstanding principal of the Advances evidenced thereby and each
payment of principal thereon. Such notations shall be rebuttably presumptive
evidence of the subject matter thereof absent manifest error; provided,
however,
that
the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect
any
of the Obligations or any payment thereon.
SECTION
2.5. Reductions
of Commitments.
(a) At
any
time the Borrower may, upon at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to
the Administrative/Collateral Agent, reduce the Total Commitment in whole or
in
part. Each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000
or
integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (or such other amount
requested by the Borrower to which the Administrative/Collateral Agent
consents). Reductions of the aggregate Commitments pursuant to this
subsection 2.5(a) of this Agreement shall be allocated (i) to the Maximum
Loan Amount of each Noncommitted Lender, pro rata
based on
the Noncommitted Percentage represented by such Maximum Loan Amount, and (ii)
to
the aggregate Commitments of Committed Lenders for each Noncommitted Lender
pro rata
based on
their respective Adjusted Commitment Percentages. The Administrative/Collateral
Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of any such notice to each Agent and each
Lender.
(b) On
the
Facility Termination Date, the Commitment of each Lender shall be automatically
reduced to zero.
SECTION
2.6. Repayments
and Prepayments.
The
Borrower shall repay in full the unpaid principal amount of each Advance on
the
Scheduled Facility Termination Date. Prior thereto, the Borrower:
-

(a) may,
from
time to time on any Business Day, make a prepayment, in whole or in part, of
the
outstanding principal amount of any Advance; provided,
however,
that
(i) all
such
voluntary prepayments shall require at least three Business Days’ prior written
notice to the Administrative/Collateral Agent; and
(ii) all
such
voluntary partial prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and
an
integral multiple of $1,000,000;
(b) shall,
on
each date when the outstanding amount of Advances exceeds the Initial Borrowing
Base, make a prepayment of the Advances in an amount equal to such
excess;
(c) shall,
immediately upon any acceleration of the maturity date of any Advance pursuant
to Section
14.2,
repay
all Advances, unless, pursuant to Section
14.2(a),
only a
portion of all Advances is so accelerated, in which event the Borrower shall
repay the accelerated portion of the Advances; and
(d) shall,
on
the date the Borrower receives any net proceeds from any Take-Out
Securitization, make a prepayment of the Advances in an amount substantially
equal to such net proceeds or, if less, the total outstanding amount of
Advances.
Each
such
prepayment shall be subject to the payment of any amounts required by
Section
6.2
resulting from a prepayment or payment of an Advance prior to the end of the
Fixed Period with respect thereto.
SECTION
2.7. Extension
of Facility.
On any
day in January, May and September of each year (a “Renewal Request Date”),
commencing January 2006, which is at least four months after the previous
Renewal Request Date, the Borrower may request (in a written notice delivered
to
the Administrative/Collateral Agent) that the Lenders extend the Scheduled
Facility Termination Date to the date set forth in that request to extend,
provided however, no extension shall be to a date that is later than 364 days
from the date of that request to extend. The Scheduled Facility Termination
Date
shall be extended accordingly if the Administrative/Collateral Agent (acting
pursuant to the written instructions of all the Lenders, which instructions
may
be given or withheld in their sole and absolute discretion) notifies the
Borrower (who shall notify the Backup Servicer) that the then-current Scheduled
Facility Termination Date shall be so extended. If any Lender instructs the
Administrative/Collateral Agent not to extend such date or fails to give the
Administrative/Collateral Agent any instruction with respect to any such request
within 10 Business Days after receipt of the related request, the
Administrative/Collateral Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Lenders
have
declined the request of the Borrower and the Scheduled Facility Termination
Date
shall not be so extended.

YIELD,
FEES, ETC.
SECTION
3.1. Yield.
The
Borrower hereby promises to pay Yield on the unpaid principal amount of each
Advance (or each portion thereof) for the period commencing on the date of
such
Advance until such Advance is paid in full. No provision of this Agreement
or
the Notes shall require the payment or permit the collection of Yield in excess
of the maximum permitted by applicable law.
SECTION
3.2. Yield
Payment Dates.
Yield
accrued on each Advance shall be payable, without duplication:
(a) on
the
Facility Termination Date;
(b) on
the
date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding

Yield relating to such Advance may also be payable, at the option of the
Borrower, on an Interim Distribution Date selected (upon not less than two
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative/Collateral Agent) by
the Borrower.
SECTION
3.3. Yield
Calculation.
(a)
Interest shall accrue on the Advances during each Accrual Period at the
following rates:
(i) Each
Noncommitted Lender’s portion of each Advance shall bear interest on each day
during each Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to such Noncommitted
Lender’s Commercial Paper Rate for such day, except as otherwise provided in
clause (ii) below.
(ii) If
and to
the extent that, and only for so long as, a Noncommitted Lender at any time
determines in good faith that it is unable to raise or is precluded or
prohibited from raising, or that it is not advisable to raise, funds through
the
issuance of commercial paper notes in the commercial paper market of the United
States to finance its making or maintenance of its portion of any Advance or
any
portion thereof (which determination may be based on any allocation method
employed in good faith by such Noncommitted Lender), including by reason of
market conditions or by reason of insufficient availability under any of its
Support Facilities or the downgrading of any of its Support Parties, upon notice
from such Noncommitted Lender to the Agent for its Lender Group and the
Administrative/Collateral Agent, such Noncommitted Lender’s portion of such
Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Rate,
rather than as otherwise determined pursuant to clause (i) above.
(iii) Each
Committed Lender’s portion of each Advance shall bear interest for each Accrual
Period at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Rate.
Notwithstanding
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, after the date any principal amount of any
Advance is due and payable (whether on the Facility Termination Date, upon
acceleration or otherwise) or after any other monetary obligation of the
Borrower or the Servicer (only
if
UACC is the Servicer) arising under this Agreement shall become due and payable,
the Borrower or the Servicer (only if UACC is the Servicer), as the case may
be,
shall pay (to the extent permitted by law, if in respect of any unpaid amounts
representing Yield) Yield (after as well as before judgment) on such amounts,
payable on demand, at a rate per annum
equal to
the Default Rate.

(b) If
(A)
the consolidation of the assets and liabilities of a Noncommitted Lender which
is a Structured Lender on the balance sheet of an administrator, manager, credit
or liquidity enhancer or similar party with respect to such Lender or any
Affiliate of such administrator, manager, credit or liquidity enhancer or
similar party (each, an “SL
Affected Party”)
shall
be required, or capital shall be required to be maintained with respect thereto
under any capital requirements as if such assets were owned by such SL Affected
Party, by the Securities and Exchange Commission, any banking regulatory
authority or any other domestic or foreign governmental authority having
jurisdiction over such SL Affected Party, or (B) the independent auditors for
a
SL Affected Party shall have advised such SL Affected Party in writing that
in
their opinion such consolidation is required under GAAP or applicable law,
rule
or regulations, then, upon notice by such Lender to the Borrower and the related
Agent, such Lender’s Advances shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to
the Alternative Rate, rather than as otherwise determined pursuant to clause
(a)
above.
SECTION
3.4. Fees.
The
Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative/Collateral Agent, on behalf of
itself, the Agents, the Support Parties and the Lenders, certain fees in the
amounts and on the dates set forth in the letter agreement among the
Administrative/Collateral Agent, the Borrower and UACC, dated as of the date
hereof (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the
“Fee
Letter”).
Fees
accrued on each Advance shall be payable, without duplication, on the date
of
any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding on
such
Advance. If UACC is not acting as Custodian, the Borrower agrees to pay to
the
Custodian certain fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the
Custodian Fee Letter.
SECTION
3.5. Computation
of Yield and Fees.
All
Yield and Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
(including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period
for which such Yield or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or,
in
the case of Yield on an Advance bearing Yield on the basis of the Alternate
Base
Rate, 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days). The Agent for each Purchaser
Group
shall notify the Administrative/Collateral Agent, the Borrower and the Servicer
of the Yield and Fees accrued one Business Day prior to each Distribution Date
and from time to time upon request of the Administrative/Collateral Agent,
the
Borrower or Servicer.

GUARANTY
SECTION
4.1. Guaranty
of Payment and Performance.
The
Guarantor hereby guarantees to the Administrative/Collateral Agent (on behalf
of
the Agents and the Lenders) the payment and performance, of all liabilities,
agreements and other obligations of each of UACC, the Sellers and the Servicer
to the Administrative/Collateral Agent, each Agent, and each of the Lenders
under the Transaction Documents, whether direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, due or to become due, secured or unsecured, now existing or
hereafter arising or acquired excluding, however, the payment of the Advances
and Fees and Yield thereon (such non-excluded obligations, collectively, the
“Guaranteed
Obligations”).
The
guaranty provided hereunder is an absolute, unconditional and irrevocable
guaranty of the full and punctual payment and performance of the Guaranteed
Obligations and not of their collectibility only and is in no way conditioned
upon any requirement that the Administrative/Collateral Agent, any Agent or
any
Lender first attempt to collect any of the Guaranteed Obligations from UACC,
the
Sellers or the Servicer or resort to any security or other means of obtaining
their payment. Should UACC, a Seller or the Servicer default in the payment
or
performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the obligations with respect
to the payment or performance in default of the Guarantor hereunder shall become
immediately due and payable to the Administrative/Collateral Agent (on behalf
of
the Agents and the Lenders), without demand or notice of any nature, all of
which are expressly waived by the Guarantor. Payments by the Guarantor hereunder
may be required by the Administrative/Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Agents
and the Lenders), acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, on any number
of occasions.
SECTION
4.2. Agreement
to Pay Expenses.
The
Guarantor agrees, as the principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to
pay
to the Administrative/Collateral Agent, on demand, all reasonable costs and
expenses (including court costs and reasonable legal expenses) incurred or
expended by the Administrative/Collateral Agent in connection with enforcement
of the obligations of any of the Guarantor under this Article IV from the time
such amounts become due until payment, at the rate per annum equal to 2% plus
the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time; provided
that, if
such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable
law, then such interest shall be reduced to such maximum permitted
amount.
SECTION
4.3. Unenforceability
of Guaranteed Obligations Against UACC, the Sellers or the
Servicer.
If for
any reason UACC, either Seller or the Servicer has no legal existence or is
under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or
if
any of the Guaranteed Obligations have become irrecoverable from UACC, either
Seller or the Servicer by operation of law or for any other reason, the guaranty
and the primary payment obligation provided under this Article
IV
shall
nevertheless be binding on the Guarantor to the same extent as if the Guarantor
at all times had been the principal obligor on all such Guaranteed Obligations.
In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of
UACC,
either Seller or the Servicer, or for any other reason, all such amounts
otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement evidencing,
securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Guaranteed Obligation
(including this Agreement) shall be immediately due and payable by the
Guarantor.
SECTION
4.4. Waiver
of Subrogation.
Until
the termination hereof and the payment and performance in full of all Guaranteed
Obligations and payment in full of the principal of, and interest on, the
Advances, the Guarantor shall not exercise any rights against UACC, the Sellers
or the Servicer arising as a result of payment by the Guarantor under this
Article
IV,
by way
of subrogation or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in competition with
the Administrative/Collateral
Agent, the Agents or the Lenders in respect of any payment hereunder in
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings of any nature; the Guarantor will not
claim
any set-off or counterclaim against UACC, the Sellers or the Servicer in respect
of any liability of the Guarantor to such Person; the Guarantor waives any
benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral which may be held
by
the Administrative/Collateral Agent, the Agents or the Lenders; and
notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary contained herein, the
Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have at any time
(whether arising directly or indirectly, by operation of law or by contract)
to
assert any claim against UACC, the Sellers or the Servicer on account of
payments made under Article
IV,
including, without limitation, any and all rights of or claim for subrogation,
contribution, reimbursement, exoneration and indemnity.

SECTION
4.5. Subordination.
The
payment of any amounts due with respect to any Indebtedness of UACC, either
Seller or the Servicer now or hereafter held by the Guarantor is hereby
subordinated to the prior payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations,
provided
that
so long
as no default in the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations has
occurred and is continuing and no Facility Termination Event or Unmatured
Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, and no demand for
payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations has been made that remains
unsatisfied, UACC, each Seller and the Servicer may make, and the Guarantor
may
demand and accept, any payments of principal of and interest on such
subordinated Indebtedness in the amounts, at the rates and on the dates agreed
by such Person and the Guarantor, and, if applicable, as specified in such
instruments, securities or other writings as shall evidence such subordinated
Indebtedness. The Guarantor agrees that after the occurrence of any default
in
the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or a Facility
Termination Event or Unmatured Facility Termination Event with respect to
payment of the principal of, and interest on, the Advances, the Guarantor will
not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any such Indebtedness of
UACC, either Seller or the Servicer to the Guarantor until the Guaranteed
Obligations shall have been paid in full. If, notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect
of such Indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received
by
the Guarantor as trustee for the Lenders and be paid over to the
Administrative/Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) on account
of
the Guaranteed Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of
the
Guarantor under this Article
IV.
SECTION
4.6. Waivers
by Guarantor.
The
Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid and performed
strictly in accordance with their respective terms regardless of any law,
regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting
any
of such terms or the rights of the Administrative/Collateral Agent, the Agents
or the Lenders with respect thereto. The Guarantor waives presentment, demand,
protest, notice of acceptance, notice of Guaranteed Obligations incurred and
all
other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of
any
valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,
any right to require the marshaling of assets of UACC, either Seller or the
Servicer, and all suretyship defenses generally. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Guarantor agrees to the provisions of any instrument
evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the
Guaranteed Obligations and agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations
shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected
by (i) the failure of the Administrative/Collateral Agent, any Agent or any
of
the Lenders to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy
against UACC, either Seller or the Servicer; (ii) any extensions or renewals
of
any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any rescissions, waivers, amendments
or
modifications of any of the terms or provisions of any agreement evidencing,
securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations,
including, without limitation, the Transaction Documents; (iv) the substitution
or release of any entity primarily or secondarily liable for any obligation
of
UACC, either Seller or the Servicer under this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents; (v) the adequacy of any rights the Agents, the Lenders
or
the Administrative/Collateral Agent may have against any collateral or other
means of obtaining repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) the impairment
of any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations, including without
limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights the
Administrative/Collateral Agent, the Agents or the Lenders might have in such
collateral or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or
destruction of any such collateral; or (vii) any other act or omission which
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise
operate as a release or discharge of the Guarantor, all of which may be done
without notice to the Guarantor.

when
due in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available

Agent’s Account”).
Payments received by the Administrative/Collateral Agent after 2:00 p.m., New
York time, on any day will be deemed to have been received by the
Administrative/Collateral Agent on its next following Business Day. The
Administrative/Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt of such payments, promptly
remit such payments (in the same type of funds received by the
Administrative/Collateral Agent) to the Agent for each Lender Group and
pro rata
among
the Lender Groups on the basis of the respective amounts owing to such Lender
Groups of the Obligations to which such payments relate. Each Agent shall
allocate to the Lenders in its Lender Group each payment in respect of the
Advances received by such Agent as provided herein. Payments in reduction of
the
principal amount of the Advances shall be allocated and applied to Lenders
pro
rata based on their respective portions of such Advances, or in any such case
in
such other proportions as each affected Lender may agree upon in writing from
time to time with such Agent and the Borrower. Payments of Yield shall be
allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based upon the respective amounts

based
upon their respective principal interests in the Advances for the applicable

the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders in such Lender Group. Each Lender
in a
Lender Group shall be entitled to receive the share of the Program Fee allocated
to such Lender Group as may be agreed upon from time to time between such Lender
and the Agent for such Lender Group.

Lenders or to any other Affected Person under this Agreement and any other
Transaction Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction
or
withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other
taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings,
now
or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Official
Body (excluding
(i)
taxes imposed on the net income of the Administrative/Collateral Agent or such
other Affected Person, however denominated, and (ii) franchise taxes imposed
on
the net income of the Administrative/Collateral Agent or such other Affected
Person in each case imposed: (1) by the United States or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein; (2) by any jurisdiction
under the laws of which the Administrative/Collateral Agent or such Affected
Person or its applicable lending office is organized or located, managed or
controlled or in which its principal office is located or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein; or (3) by reason of any
connection between the jurisdiction imposing such tax and the
Administrative/Collateral Agent, such Affected Person or such lending office
other than a connection arising solely from this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document or any transaction hereunder or thereunder) (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or
withholdings, collectively or individually, “Taxes”).
If
any such Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the
Administrative/Collateral Agent or any other Affected Person hereunder or under
any other Transaction Document, the amounts so payable to the
Administrative/Collateral Agent or such Affected Person shall be increased
to
the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative/Collateral Agent or such
Affected Person (after payment of all Taxes) all amounts payable hereunder
or
thereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents. The Borrower (or the party required to “gross-up”
the applicable payment) and UPFC, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the
Administrative/Collateral Agent or any such Affected Person for the full amount
of any such Taxes on the Settlement Date occurring after the date of written
demand therefor by the Administrative/Collateral Agent; provided
that no
Person shall be indemnified pursuant to this Section
5.1(b)

extent the reason for such indemnification relates to, or arises from, the
failure by such Person to comply with the provisions of Section 5.1(c).

Document), deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative/Collateral Agent
(A) two duly completed copies of Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN, or successor
applicable form, as the case may be, and (B) an IRS Form W-9, or successor

requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the
Borrower and the Administrative/Collateral Agent;
unless,
in any
such case, an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law
or
regulation) has occurred after the Effective Date and prior to the date on
which
any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms
inapplicable or which would prevent such Affected Person from duly completing
and delivering any such form with respect to it, and such Affected Person so
advises the Borrower and the Administrative/Collateral Agent. Each such Affected
Person so organized shall certify (i) in the case of a Form W-8ECI or Form
W-8BEN, that it is entitled to receive payments under the this Agreement and
the
other Transaction Documents without deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes and (ii) in the case of an IRS Form W-9, that it
is
entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Person
that desires to become an additional party to a Noncommitted Lender Liquidity
Arrangement, shall, prior to the effectiveness of such addition, be required
to
provide all of the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section 5.1(c)
unless
such Person has previously delivered such forms in its capacity as a party
to a
Transaction Document.
SECTION
5.2. Application
of Certain Payments.
Each
payment of principal of the Advances shall be applied to such Advances as the
Borrower shall direct or, in the absence of such direction or during the
existence of a Facility Termination Event or after the Facility Termination
Date, as the Required Lenders shall determine, in their discretion.

INCREASED
COSTS, ETC.
SECTION
6.1. Increased
Costs.
If due
to the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law
or
regulation occurring or issued after the date hereof, any Agent, any Lender
or
other Investor, any Support Party, or any of their respective Affiliates (each
an “Affected
Person”)
determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or
request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having
the
force of law) affects
or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained
by
such Affected Person and such Affected Person determines that the amount of
such
capital is increased by or based upon the existence of its obligations or
commitments hereunder or with respect hereto or to the funding thereof and
other
obligations or commitments of the same type (other than any increase in cost
resulting solely from a consolidation event described in Section
3.3(b)
but only
if the Borrower is liable for the payment of the increased rate of interest
under such Section 3.3(b)),
then,
upon
demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the Administrative/Collateral
Agent) (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the
basis
for the calculations of the amount being claimed), the Borrower agrees to pay
to
the Administrative/Collateral Agent, for the account of such Affected Person
(as
a third-party beneficiary), on the Distribution Date following the date on
which
such Affected Person provides notice of such event to the Borrower and the
Servicer (provided that such notice is delivered on or prior to the third
Business Day prior to such Distribution Date and otherwise on the Distribution
Date following such Distribution Date), subject to and in accordance with the
priorities set forth in Section 9.5(a),
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person in the light
of
such circumstances, to the extent that such Affected Person reasonably
determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of any
of
such obligations, commitments or fundings. Such written statement shall, in
the
absence of manifest error, be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject
matter thereof. Any Affected Person claiming any additional amounts payable
pursuant to this Section
6.1
agrees
to use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions)
to
designate a different office or branch of such Affected Person as its lending
office or take such other actions if the making of such a designation or taking
of such other actions would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any
such additional amounts and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such
Affected Person, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Affected
Person.
SECTION
6.2. Funding
Losses.
The
Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Affected Person (which demand
shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the calculations
of the amount being claimed) it will indemnify such Affected Person against
any
net loss or expense which such Affected Person may sustain or incur (including,
without limitation, any net loss or expense incurred by reason of or resulting
from interest to accrue on the related commercial paper after the date of any
failed borrowing, payment or prepayment of an Advance or from the liquidation
or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Affected Person to
fund
or maintain any Advance to the Borrower), as reasonably determined by such
Affected Person, as a result of any failure by the Borrower to borrow an Advance
on the date specified therefor in an Advance Request (other than due to a
default by a Lender) or as a result of any payment or prepayment (including
any
mandatory prepayment) of any Advance on a date other than the last day of the
Fixed Period for such Advance. Such written statement shall, in the absence
of
manifest error, be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter
thereof.

6.3. Replacement
of Affected Person.
Upon
the receipt by the Borrower of a claim for reimbursement or compensation under
Section
6.1
hereof
by an Affected Person, if payment thereof shall not be waived by such Affected
Person, the Borrower may (a) request such Affected Person or the Lender that
has
assigned an interest in its Advances to such Affected Person
to
use reasonable efforts to assist the Borrower in its attempt to obtain a
replacement bank, financial institution or Structured Lender, as applicable,
satisfactory to the Borrower (in the case of a replacement Lender), to acquire
and assume all or a ratable part of such Affected Person’s commitment to make
Advances, Advances, or interests therein, or (b) request one or more of the
other Lenders or Investors to acquire and assume all or a part of such Affected
Person’s commitment to make Advances, Advances or interests therein. Upon notice
from the Borrower, such Affected Person shall, or the Lender that has assigned
an interest in its Advances to such Affected Person shall cause such Affected
Person to, assign, without recourse, its commitment to make Advances, Advances
or interests therein and its other rights and obligations (if any) hereunder,
or
a ratable share thereof, to the replacement bank, financial institution or
Structured Lender designated by the Borrower and consented to by the
Administrative/Collateral Agent for a purchase price equal to the sum of the
principal amount of the Advances or interests therein so assigned, all accrued
and unpaid Yield thereon and any other amounts (including Fees and any amounts
owing under this Article VI)
to
which such Affected Person is entitled hereunder; provided,
that
the Borrower shall provide such Affected Person with an Officer’s Certificate of
UACC stating that such replacement bank, financial institution or Structured
Lender has advised the Borrower that it is not subject to, or has agreed not
to
seek, such increased amount.

each
of the Agents and each of the Lenders are entering into the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement in reliance upon the Borrower’s identity as a
separate legal entity from UACC and each such Affiliate. Since its formation,
the Borrower has been (and will be) operated in such a manner as to comply

for
the benefit of, the Administrative/Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties as if the same were set forth in full herein.
SECTION
10.24. Transaction
Documents.
The
Sale and Servicing Agreement is the only agreement pursuant to which the
Borrower purchases and receives contributions of Contracts, and the Transaction
Documents delivered to the Administrative/Collateral Agent represent all
material agreements between the Sellers, on the one hand, and the Borrower,
on
the other. It has furnished to the Administrative/Collateral Agent and each
Agent true, correct and complete copies of each Transaction Document to which
it
is a party, each of which is in full force and effect. Neither the Borrower,
either Seller nor any Affiliate party thereto is in default of any of its
obligations thereunder in any material respect. Upon the purchase and/or
contribution of each Transferred Contract pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Borrower shall be the lawful owner of, and have good title to,
such Transferred Contract and all assets relating thereto, free and clear of
any
Liens. All such assets are transferred to the Borrower without recourse to
the
related Seller except as described in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The
purchases of such assets by the Borrower constitute valid and true sales for
consideration (and not merely a pledge of such assets for security purposes)
and
the contributions of such assets received by the Borrower constitute valid
and
true transfers for consideration, each enforceable against creditors of the
related Seller, and no such assets shall constitute property of that
Seller.

of the Borrower.
One
hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding capital stock of the Borrower is

is and will be validly issued, and there are no options, warrants or other
rights to acquire shares or other equity rights in the Borrower.

Administrative/Collateral Agent at least 30 days prior written notice thereof,
and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing
statements and continuation statements.
(c) The
Borrower shall maintain its computer systems, if any, so that, from and after
the time of the first Advance under this Agreement, the Borrower’s master
computer records (including archives) that shall refer to the Borrower
Collateral indicate clearly that such Borrower Collateral is subject to first
priority security interest in favor of the Administrative/Collateral Agent,
for
the benefit of the Secured Parties. Indication of the Administrative/Collateral
Agent’s (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) security interest shall be
deleted from or modified on the Borrower’s computer systems when, and only when,
the Borrower Collateral in question shall have been paid in full, the security
interest under this Agreement has been released in accordance with its terms,
with respect to any Transferred Contract, upon such Transferred Contract
becoming a Repurchased Contract or otherwise as expressly permitted by the
Sale
and Servicing Agreement or by this Agreement.
(d) Without
limiting any of the other provisions hereof, if at any time the Borrower shall
propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any
interest in motor vehicle receivables to any prospective lender or other
transferee, the Borrower shall give to such prospective lender or other
transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored from

Collateral shall indicate clearly that such Borrower Collateral is subject

Borrower shall conduct its business solely in its own name through its duly
authorized officers or agents so as not to mislead others as to the identity

deposit in the Cap Funding Reserve Account shall be released to the Borrower
on
the third such Servicer Report Date; provided

the Cap Funding Reserve Account Requirement shall increase on any applicable
Servicer Report Date as a result of an increase in the estimated cost of

be required to deposit an amount equal to such additional cost into the Cap
Funding Reserve Account on such Servicer Report Date; provided
further,
that if
the Cap Funding Reserve Account Requirement shall decrease on any applicable
Servicer Report Date as a result of a decrease in the estimated cost of
purchasing Interest Rate Caps from qualified Cap Providers, the excess of the

Funding Reserve Account Requirement shall be withdrawn from the Cap Funding
Reserve Account and released to the Borrower on such Servicer Report Date.
As
specified in Section 11.6(a) above, in the event the LIBOR Rate is greater

on
its obligations under Section 11.6(a), the Administrative/Collateral Agent,
at
the direction of the Required Lenders, may use the funds in the Cap Funding
Reserve Account to purchase the Interest Rate Caps; provided,
however,

such action by the Administrative/Collateral Agent shall not release the
Borrower from its obligations under this Section 11.6; provided
further,
that
the Servicer shall provide the Administrative/Collateral Agent with all
information necessary to purchase such Interest Rate Caps; provided
further,

the amount on deposit in the Cap Funding Reserve Account is insufficient to

for
any such shortfall; provided
further,
that if
the Borrower defaults on its obligation with respect to such Cap Funding Reserve
Account shortfall, the Administrative/Collateral Agent shall follow the
instructions provided by the Required Lenders with respect to the satisfaction
of any such shortfall or the purchase of any Interest Rate Caps. Funds retained
in the Cap Funding Reserve Account following application as set forth above
shall be invested at the direction of the Servicer in Permitted Investments
with
maturities not later than the next succeeding Business Day. Any earnings on
such
invested funds shall be deposited and held in the Cap Funding Reserve Account
and applied in the same manner and priority as payments pursuant to the Interest
Rate Caps.
(c) In
the
event that any Cap Provider defaults in its obligation to make a payment to
the
Administrative/Collateral Agent under one or more Cap Agreements on any date
on
which payments are due pursuant to a Cap Agreement, the
Administrative/Collateral Agent shall make a demand on such Cap Provider, or
any
guarantor, if applicable, demanding payment by 12:30 p.m., New York City time,
on such date. The Administrative/Collateral Agent shall give notice to the
Lenders and the Rating Agencies upon the continuing failure by any Cap Provider
to perform its obligations during the two Business Days following a demand
made
by the Administrative/Collateral Agent on such Cap Provider, and shall take
such
action with respect to such continuing failure as may be directed by the
Required Lenders.

(d) In
the
event that any Cap Provider no longer maintains the ratings specified in the
definition of “Cap Provider,” then within 30 days after receiving notice of such
decline in the creditworthiness of such Cap Provider as determined by any Rating
Agency, either (x) such Cap Provider, upon the receipt of the consent of
the Required Lenders and with the prior written confirmation of each Rating
Agency that such arrangement will not result in the reduction or withdrawal
of
the rating of the Notes, will enter into an arrangement the purpose of which
shall be to assure performance by the Cap Provider of its obligations under
the
Interest Rate Cap; or (y) the Borrower shall at its option either (i) upon
the receipt of the consent of the Required Lenders, and with the prior written
confirmation of each Rating Agency that such arrangement will not result in
the
reduction or withdrawal of the rating of the Notes, cause such Cap Provider
to
pledge securities in the manner provided by applicable law which shall be held
by the Administrative/Collateral Agent free and clear of the Lien of any third
party, in a manner conferring on the Administrative/Collateral Agent a perfected
first Lien in such securities securing such Cap Provider’s performance of its
obligations under the applicable Interest Rate Cap, (ii) provided that a

Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action
pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not
protect the Backup Servicer or any such Person against any liability that would
otherwise be imposed by reason of a breach of this Agreement or willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties. The
Backup Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Backup
Servicer may rely in good faith on the written advice of counsel or on any
document of any kind prima

executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising under this

(b) Unless
acting as Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any
obligation of the Servicer contained in this Agreement, and the Administrative/Collateral
Agent, the Borrower and the Investors shall look only to the Servicer to perform
such obligations.
(c) The
Backup Servicer shall have no responsibility and shall not be in default
hereunder nor incur any liability for any failure, error, malfunction or any
delay in carrying out any of its duties under this Agreement if any such failure
or delay results from the Backup Servicer acting in accordance with information
prepared or supplied by a Person other than the Backup Servicer or the failure
of any such Person to prepare or provide such information. The Backup Servicer
shall have no responsibility, shall not be in default and shall incur no
liability (i) for any act or failure to act by any third party, including the
Servicer or the Administrative/Collateral Agent or for any inaccuracy or
omission in a notice or communication received by the Backup Servicer from
any
third party or (ii) that is due to or results from the invalidity,
unenforceability of any Transferred Contract under applicable law or the breach
or the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to any
Transferred Contract.
(d) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a delay in or a failure to perform
by the Backup Servicer, including in its capacity as successor Servicer, under
this Agreement for a period of no more than 60 days shall not constitute a
breach under this Agreement or a Servicer Default if such delay or failure
could
not be prevented by the exercise of reasonable diligence by the Servicer and
such delay or failure was caused by an act of God or the public enemy, acts
of
declared or undeclared war, public disorder, rebellion or sabotage, epidemics,
landslides, lightning, fire, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods or similar causes;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Servicer from using
reasonable efforts to perform its obligations in a timely manner in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.

12.4. Backup
Servicer Not to Resign.
Subject
to the provisions of Section
12.2,
the
Backup Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties imposed on
it
by this Agreement as Backup Servicer except upon a determination that by reason
of a change in legal requirements the performance of its duties under this
Agreement would cause it to be in violation of such legal requirements and
the
Administrative/Collateral Agent does not elect to waive the obligations of
the
Backup Servicer to perform the duties which render it legally unable to act
or
to delegate those duties to another Person. Any such determination permitting
the resignation of Backup Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel
to such effect delivered and acceptable to the Required Lenders. No resignation
of the Backup Servicer shall become effective until an entity acceptable to
the
Required Lenders shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of
the
Backup Servicer; provided,
however,
that in
the event a successor Backup Servicer is not appointed within 60 days after
the
Backup Servicer has given notice of its resignation as permitted by this
Section 12.4,
the
resignation of the Backup Servicer shall become effective. Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, the Backup Servicer may resign for any reason, provided an entity
acceptable to the Required Lenders shall have assumed the responsibilities
and
obligations of the Backup Servicer prior to the effectiveness of any such
resignation.

of Proceeds; No Duty.
Neither
the Administrative/Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall be under any

financing thereof with a third party.
(e) Representation
in Connection with Releases, Sales and Transfers.
The
Borrower represents and warrants that each request for any release or transfer
in connection with any Take-Out Securitizations pursuant to Section
13.4(a)
shall
automatically constitute a representation and warranty to the Secured Parties
and the Administrative/Collateral Agent to the effect that immediately before
and after giving effect to such release or Transfer Request, there is no
Facility Termination Event or Unmatured Facility Termination Event under Section
14.1 and each of the other conditions set forth in Section 13.4 have been
satisfied.
(f) Release
of Security Interest.
Upon
receipt of a Transfer Request or, in connection with the purchase by the
Servicer, UACC or a Seller of a Transferred Contract pursuant to the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, upon the Servicer’s written request, and, in each case upon
receipt in the Collection Account of proceeds from the sale or transfer
(including, without limitation, in connection with the purchase by the Servicer,
UACC or a Seller of a Transferred Contract pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the related Repurchase Amount), the Administrative/Collateral Agent
at the written direction of the Required Lenders shall promptly release, at
the
Borrower’s expense, such part of the Contract Collateral covered in connection
with the Transfer Request or such Servicer’s request and shall deliver, at the
Borrower’s expense, and without recourse, representation or warranty of any
kind, the Contracts Files on the released portion of Contract Collateral to
the
trustee or such similar entity in connection with the applicable Take-Out
Securitization or, in connection with the purchase by the Servicer, UACC or
a
Seller of a Transferred Contract pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement,
the Servicer; provided
that the
trustee or such similar entity in connection with the third party securitization
(including any Take-Out Securitization) or the Servicer or the Borrower, as
the
case may be, acknowledges and agrees (i) that all proceeds thereof that it
receives from such sale are held in trust for the Secured Parties and (ii)
that
it shall transfer such funds to the Administrative/Collateral Agent for deposit
in the Collection Account. The foregoing notwithstanding, upon the deposit
into
the Collection Account of all amounts required to effect a full payment or
prepayment by an Obligor of a Transferred Contract, the security interest of
the
Administrative/Collateral Agent in that Receivable shall be automatically deemed
released.

warranty by such Note Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Note
Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed

the

creditworthiness of the Borrower, each Seller, UACC, the Guarantor, UPFC, the
Servicer, the Backup Servicer, and the Contracts. Except as expressly provided
herein, no Note Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Borrower Collateral

SECTION
15.8. Successor
Agent.
The
Administrative/Collateral Agent may, upon five (5) days’ notice to the Lenders
(with a copy to the Borrower), resign as Administrative/Collateral Agent;
provided,
in
either case, that an Agent or a Lender agrees to become the successor
Administrative/Collateral Agent hereunder in accordance with the next sentence.
If the Administrative/Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative/Collateral
Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Lenders during such period shall
appoint from among the Agents and the Committed Lenders a successor agent,
whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties
of
the Administrative/Collateral Agent, and the term “Administrative/Collateral
Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its acceptance of such
appointment, and the former Administrative/Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and
duties as Administrative/Collateral Agent shall be terminated, without any
other
or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties
to
this Agreement. In
the
event of any such resignation of the Administrative/Collateral Agent, the
Administrative/Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer (upon its receipt of
any
outstanding fees, expenses and indemnities due and owing to it) to the successor
Administrative/Collateral Agent, as directed in writing by the Required Lenders,
all accounts, funds and investments being administered under this Agreement
and
shall cooperate with the Required Lenders, UACC and the successor
administrative/collateral agent to facilitate the continued perfection and
priority of the Lien granted for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the
Borrower Collateral. Any
Agent
may resign as Agent upon ten days’ notice to the Lenders in its Lender Group,
the Administrative/Collateral Agent and each other Agent, the
Administrative/Collateral Agent, the Sellers and the Servicer with such
resignation becoming effective upon a successor agent succeeding to the rights,
powers and duties of the Agent pursuant to this Section 15.8. If an Agent
shall resign as Agent under this Agreement, then Lenders in its Lender Group
holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group
shall appoint from among the Committed Lenders in such Lender Group a successor
agent for such Lender Group. After any retiring Note Agent’s resignation
hereunder as Note Agent, the provisions of this Article
XV
shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Note Agent under this Agreement. No resignation of any Note Agent shall
become effective until a successor Note Agent shall have assumed the
responsibilities and obligations of such Note Agent; provided,
however,
that in
the event a successor note Agent is not appointed within 60 days after such
Note
Agent has given notice of its resignation as permitted by this Section 15.8,
such
Note Agent may petition a court for its removal.
SECTION
15.9. Agents
in their Individual Capacity.
Each
Note Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, either Seller,
UACC,
the Guarantor, UPFC, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer or the
Administrative/Collateral Agent as though such Note Agent were not an agent
hereunder. In addition, the Lenders acknowledges that one or more Persons which
are Note Agents may act (i) as administrator, sponsor or agent for one or more
Noncommitted Lenders and in such capacity acts and may continue to act on behalf
of each such Noncommitted Lender in connection with its business, and (ii)
as
the agent for certain financial institutions under the liquidity and credit
enhancement agreements relating to this Agreement to which any one or more
Noncommitted Lenders is party and in various other capacities relating to the
business of any such Noncommitted Lender under various agreements. Any such
Person, in its capacity as Note Agent, shall not, by virtue of its acting in
any
such other capacities, be deemed to have duties or responsibilities hereunder
or
be held to a standard of care in connection with the performance of its duties
as a Note Agent other than as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any Person
which is a Note Agent may act as a Note Agent without regard to and without
additional duties or liabilities arising from its role as such administrator
or
agent or arising from its acting in any such other capacity.

paragraph of Section 17.1)
the
indemnification provided above in Section

such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability
in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
received by such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and UPFC, UACC, the
