ARTICLE II
AGREEMENT TO DEPOSIT CONTRACTS
Section 2.01. Deposit of Contracts. The Trust Depositor hereby
undertakes and agrees, not later than the end of the Funding Period, to acquire
from the Seller by purchase for cash pursuant to one or more Subsequent Purchase
Agreements, and thereupon transfer to the Trust pursuant to one or more
Subsequent Transfer Agreements, Subsequent Contracts in an aggregate Principal
Balance, as of the respective Subsequent Cutoff Dates, equal to $[____] which is
equal to the amount deposited with the Collateral Agent on the Closing Date in
respect of the Pre-Funded Amount. The Trust Depositor shall effect such
purchases from the Seller using the funds on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account
in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement.
Section 2.02. Remedy for Breach. If the Trust Depositor fails to
perform the obligation described in Section 2.01 in its entirety by the end of
the Funding Period, the Trustee shall take remedial action upon the expiration
of the Funding Period by giving written notice of non-performance to the Trust
Depositor, accompanied by written demand upon the Trust Depositor for the
payment of liquidated damages ("LIQUIDATED DAMAGES") hereunder in respect of
such non-performance. Such Liquidated Damages shall be payable immediately upon
demand. Liquidated Damages shall in all events equal the amount then on deposit
in the Pre-Funding Account, and such written demand shall concurrently be made
upon the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 3.03 of the Security Agreement.
The Trustee shall deposit all amounts received from the Collateral Agent in
respect of Liquidated Damages into the Special Distribution Subaccount
established under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The right to payment of
Liquidated Damages from the Pre-Funding Account shall be the sole remedy of the
Trustee for the Trust Depositor's failure to perform its obligations as
described above.
ARTICLE III
CARRYING CHARGES
Section 3.01. Payment of Carrying Charges. The Trust Depositor
hereby agrees to pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Trust, immediately
upon demand, Carrying Charges to the extent that the Trustee demands payment of
such Carrying Charges in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of,
Section 8.03(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. No such Carrying Charges
shall be payable on or after the second Payment Date succeeding the date on
which the Pre-Funded Amount shall be zero.
Section 3.02. Demand on Collateral Agent. The Trust Depositor
agrees that the Trustee may effect demand for payment of Carrying Charges by
making demand directly upon the Collateral Agent instead of the Trust Depositor,
and consents to the Collateral Agent's payment of such Carrying Charges from
amounts on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account.
