to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.
(iv) The Administrator shall satisfy its
obligations with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) above by
retaining, at the expense of the Trust payable by the

perform the obligations of the Administrator thereunder.
(v) The Administrator shall perform the
duties of the Administrator specified in Sections 6.02, 9.01(d)

any other duties expressly required to be performed by the
Administrator under the Trust Agreement.
(vi) In carrying out the foregoing duties or
any of its other obligations under this Agreement, the
Administrator may enter into transactions or otherwise deal with
any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any
such transactions or dealings shall be in accordance with any
directions received from the Issuer and shall be, in the
Administrator's opinion, no less favorable to the Issuer than
would be available from unaffiliated parties.

(i) With respect to matters that in the
reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial,

preceding sentence, "non-ministerial matters" shall include,
without limitation:

any other Transaction Documents;
(D) the appointment of successor Note
Registrars, successor Paying Agents and successor Indenture

unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) shall be construed to
impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) shall be deemed to confer
on any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any
obligation or liability on behalf of the others.
SECTION 7. OTHER ACTIVITIES OF ADMINISTRATOR. Nothing herein
shall prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other
business or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an
administrator for any other Person or entity even though such person or entity
may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or
Certificateholders; provided that such amendment will not, in the Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect
the interest of any Noteholder or Certificateholder. This Agreement may also be
amended by the parties hereto with the written consent of the Owner Trustee and

Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, in
which such corporation or other organization agrees to be bound hereunder by the
terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Administrator is bound
hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind any successors or
assigns of the parties hereto.
SECTION 13. GOVERNING LAW, JURY WAIVER AND NO PETITION. (a) THIS

DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS;
(b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT
OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS AGREEMENT. Each party hereto (i) certifies that no representative,
agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise,
that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the
foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have
been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual
waivers and certifications in this Section 13(b); and
17
(c) Each of the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee
covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after
the payment in full of all amounts owing in respect of all outstanding Notes, it
will not institute against the Trust Depositor or the Trust, or join any other
Person in instituting against the Trust Depositor or the Trust, any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other
similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state of the
United States, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the
Indenture Trustee from filing proofs of claim or otherwise participating in any
such proceedings instituted by any other person. This Section 13(c) will survive
the termination of this Agreement.
SECTION 14. HEADINGS. The section and subsection headings hereof
have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be construed
to affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Agreement.
