TEXTRON FINANCIAL FLOORPLAN MASTER NOTE TRUST, a Delaware statutory trust, (the “Issuer”) for
value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., New York Branch,
as the Managing Agent for the BTMU Ownership Group, or registered assigns, upon presentation and

principal sum equal to the Maximum Principal Amount (or such lesser amount as shall equal the
aggregate outstanding principal under this Note) on the Series 2008-CP-1 Stated Maturity Date
except as provided in the Indenture referred to herein.
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Class A Floating Rate Floorplan Receivables
Secured Note, Series 2008-CP-1 (the “Class A Notes”) issued and to be issued under the Amended and
Restated Indenture, dated as of May 26, 2005 (as supplemented by the Series 2008-CP-1 Supplement
dated as of March 20, 2008 (as such Series 2008-CP-1 Supplement may be amended, restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Supplement”) and as it may be amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its terms, the
“Indenture”) among the Issuer and The Bank of New York Mellon (f/k/a The Bank of New York), a New
York banking corporation, as Indenture Trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any
successor trustee as permitted under the Indenture). Reference is hereby made to the Indenture
for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder
of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Class A Notes and the terms upon which
the Class A Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. Capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture or the Supplement or
the Class A Note Purchase Agreement as the case may be.
The Issuer promises to pay interest, if any, at the Class A Interest Rate from time to time,
on the thirteenth calendar day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day, commencing April 14, 2008 (each, a “Payment Date”) in each case on the
outstanding principal balance hereunder until such outstanding principal balance is paid or until
the Termination Date as provided in the Supplement. To the extent lawful and enforceable, interest
on any Class A Interest Shortfall shall accrue hereon to the extent provided in the Supplement.
The interest and other amounts so payable, and punctually paid, on any Payment Date will, as
provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more
predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest,
which shall be the last day of the Collection Period preceding such Payment Date.
The principal of this Note shall be payable on each Payment Date on which funds are permitted
or required to be used for such purpose in accordance with the Supplement and the Indenture. The
principal of this Note shall be due and payable no later than the Series 2008-CP-1 Stated Maturity
Date, unless previously repaid prior thereto as described in the Indenture.
The obligations of the Issuer under this Note and the Indenture are limited recourse
obligations of the Issuer as provided in the Indenture. The payments of principal of, and interest
and other amounts with respect to, this Note are subject to the priority of payments as provided in
the Indenture and Supplement.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Indenture Trustee by
the manual signature of one of its Authorized Officers, this Note shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, this Note may become or be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
Title to Notes shall pass solely by registration in the Register kept by the Registrar, which
for the Class A Notes initially shall be the Indenture Trustee.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but
the Indenture Trustee or any Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses
(including all fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee) connected therewith.
The Issuer has structured the Indenture and the Class A Notes with the intention that the
Class A Notes will qualify under applicable tax law as indebtedness, and the Issuer, the Residual
Interestholder, the Servicer and each Holder of a Class A Note or holder of any interest in a Class
A Note by acceptance of its Class A Note (or interest therein), agrees to treat and to take no
action inconsistent with the treatment of the Class A Notes (or interest therein) for purposes of
federal, state, local and foreign income or franchise taxes and any other tax imposed on or measure
by income, as indebtedness. Each Holder of a Class A Note agrees that it will cause any holder of
an interest therein acquiring such interest through it to comply with the Indenture as to treatment
as indebtedness for certain tax purposes.
For the avoidance of doubt, this Note has been countersigned by U.S. Bank Trust National
Association not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Owner Trustee of the
Issuer, and in no event shall U.S. Bank Trust National Association in its individual capacity have
any liability with respect to the obligations hereunder as to all of which recourse shall be had
solely to the assets of the Issuer as provided in the Indenture.
AS PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE, THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL
OBLIGATION LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES).
