shall be treated as Shared Principal Collections with respect to Principal
Sharing Group One and applied in accordance with Section 8.05 of the
Indenture.
(c) On each Distribution Date with respect to the Controlled
Accumulation Period or the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to the
Available Investor Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account for
the related Due Period shall be distributed or deposited in the following order
of priority:
21
(i) during the Controlled Accumulation Period and prior to the
payment in full of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes
and the O/C Amount an amount equal to the Monthly Principal for such
Distribution Date shall be first, deposited into the Principal Funding
Account in an amount not to exceed the Controlled Deposit Amount and
second, an amount not to exceed the Excess O/C Amount shall be distributed
to the O/C Holder for reduction of the O/C Amount;
(ii) during the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to the
Monthly Principal for such Distribution Date shall be distributed to the
Paying Agent for payment to the Class A Noteholders on such Distribution
Date and on each subsequent Distribution Date until the Class A Note
Principal Balance has been paid in full;
(iii) after giving effect to the distribution referred to in
clause (ii) above, during the Early Amortization Period, an amount equal to
the Monthly Principal remaining, if any, shall be distributed to the Paying
Agent for payment to the Class B Noteholders on such Distribution Date and
on each subsequent Distribution Date until the Class B Note Principal
Balance has been paid in full;
(iv) after giving effect to the distribution referred to in
clauses (ii) and (iii) above, during the Early Amortization Period, an
amount equal to the Monthly Principal remaining, if any, shall be
distributed to the Paying Agent for payment to the Class C Noteholders on
such Distribution Date and on each subsequent Distribution Date until the

reduction of the O/C Amount, on such Distribution Date and on each
subsequent Distribution Date until the O/C Amount has been paid in full;
and
(vi) the balance of such Available Investor Principal Collections

Date, the Indenture Trustee, acting in accordance with instructions from the
Servicer, shall withdraw from the Principal Funding Account and distribute to
the Paying Agent for payment first, to the Class A Noteholders up to the Class A
Note Principal Balance, second, to the Class B Noteholders up to the Class B
Note Principal Balance and third, to the Class C Noteholders up to the Class C
Note Principal Balance, the amounts deposited into the Principal Funding Account
pursuant to subsection 4.04(c)(i).
(e) The Controlled Accumulation Period is scheduled to commence on
November 1, 2004; provided, however, that, if the Accumulation Period Length
(determined as described below) is less than 12 Due Periods, the date on which
the Controlled Accumulation Period actually commences will be delayed to the
first Business Day of the Due Period that is the
22
number of whole Due Periods prior to the Expected Principal Payment Date at
least equal to the Accumulation Period Length and, as a result, the number of
Due Periods in the Controlled Accumulation Period will at least equal the
Accumulation Period Length. On the Determination Date beginning in October 2004,
and each Determination Date thereafter until the Controlled Accumulation Period
begins, the Servicer will determine the "ACCUMULATION PERIOD LENGTH" which will
equal the number of whole Due Periods such that the sum of the Accumulation
Period Factors for each Due Period during such period will be equal to or
greater than the Required Accumulation Factor Number; provided, however, that
the Accumulation Period Length will not be determined to be less than one Due
Period; provided further, however, that the determination of the Accumulation
Period Length may be changed at any time if an Officer's Certificate is
delivered indicating that such action will not result in an Adverse Effect.
Section 4.05 Investor Charge-offs. On each Determination Date, the Servicer
shall calculate the Investor Defaulted Amount, if any, for the related
Distribution Date. If, on any Distribution Date, the Investor Defaulted Amount
for such Distribution Date exceeds the amount available therefor pursuant to
Section 4.04(a)(v) with respect to such Due Period, the Invested Amount will be
reduced by the amount of such excess, but not by more than the Investor
Defaulted Amount for such Distribution Date (such reduction, an "INVESTOR
CHARGE-OFF").
Section 4.06 Subordinated Principal Collections. On each Distribution Date,
the Servicer shall apply, or shall cause the Indenture Trustee to withdraw from
the Collection Account and apply, Subordinated Principal Collections with
respect to such Distribution Date, in an amount equal to the lesser of the (a)
Investor Percentage of all Collections of Principal Receivables received during
the preceding Due Period and (b) the Monthly Subordination Amount for the
preceding Due Period in accordance with the priority set forth in clauses (i)
through (iv) of Section 4.04(a). On each Distribution Date, the Invested Amount
shall be reduced by the amount of Subordinated Principal Collections for such
Distribution Date.
Section 4.07 Excess Finance Charge and Administrative Collections. Subject
to Section 8.08C of the Indenture, Excess Finance Charge and Administrative
Collections with respect to the Excess Finance Charge Sharing Series in Excess
Finance Charge Sharing Group One for any Distribution Date will be allocated to
Series 2002-3 in an amount equal to the product of (a) the aggregate amount of
Excess Finance Charge and Administrative Collections with respect to all the
Excess Finance Charge Sharing Series in Excess Finance Charge Sharing Group One
for such Distribution Date and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
Finance Charge Shortfall for Series 2002-3 for such Distribution Date and the
denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Finance Charge Shortfalls for
all the Excess Finance Charge Sharing Series in Excess Finance Charge Sharing
Group One for such Distribution Date. The "FINANCE CHARGE SHORTFALL" for Series
2002-3 for any Distribution Date will be equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the
full amount required to be paid, without duplication, pursuant to subsections
4.04(a)(i) through (x) on such Distribution Date over (b) the Available Investor
Finance Charge and Administrative Collections with respect to the Due Period
related to such Distribution Date.
Section 4.08 Shared Principal Collections. Subject to Section 8.05 of the
Indenture, Shared Principal Collections with respect to the Series in Principal
Sharing Group One for any Distribution Date will be allocated to Series 2002-3
in an amount equal to the product of (a) the aggregate amount of Shared
Principal Collections with respect to all Principal Sharing Series in
23
Principal Sharing Group One for such Distribution Date and (b) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the Series 2002-3 Principal Shortfall for such
Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of
Principal Shortfalls for all the Series which are Principal Sharing Series in
Principal Sharing Group One for such Distribution Date. The "SERIES 2002-3
PRINCIPAL SHORTFALL" will be equal to (a) for any Distribution Date with respect
to the Revolving Period, zero, (b) for any Distribution Date with respect to the
Controlled Accumulation Period, the excess, if any, of the Controlled Deposit
Amount for such Distribution Date and the Excess O/C Amount with respect to the
Due Period related to such Distribution Date over the amount of Available
Investor Principal Collections for such Distribution Date (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections), and (c) for any
Distribution Date with respect to the Early Amortization Period, the excess, if
any, of the Adjusted Invested Amount over the amount of Available Investor
Principal Collections for the Due Period related to such Distribution Date
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to Shared Principal Collections).

that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 2002-3
Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest
in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Reserve Account and in all

provided, that no Eligible Investment shall be disposed of prior to its maturity
date. Terms used in clause (i) above that are defined in the New York UCC and

On each Distribution Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses
and investment expenses) accrued since the preceding Distribution Date on funds
on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be retained in the Reserve Account to
the extent that the Available Reserve Account Amount is less than the Required
Reserve Account Amount, and the balance, if any, shall be deposited into the
Collection Account and included in Available Investor Finance Charge and
Administrative Collections for such Distribution Date. For purposes of
determining the availability of funds or the balance in the Reserve Account for
any reason under this
26
Indenture Supplement, except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence,
investment earnings on such funds shall be deemed not to be available or on
deposit.

Amount is greater than zero, the Reserve Draw Amount, up to the Available

amounts owed to such Series 2002-3 Noteholders.
Section 4.12 Determination of LIBOR.
(a) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall
determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States dollars
for a one-month period which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m.,
London time, on such date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750,
the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of
the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered
27
by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to
prime banks in the London interbank market for a one-month period. The Indenture
Trustee shall request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks
to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are
provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be the arithmetic
mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested,
the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the
rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Servicer, at
approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United
States dollars to leading European banks for a one-month period.
(b) The Class A Note Interest Rate, the Class B Note Interest Rate and
the Class C Note Interest Rate applicable to the then current and the
immediately preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the
Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office or such other address and
telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such
purpose by prior written notice by the Indenture Trustee to each Series 2002-3
Noteholder from time to time.
(c) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall send
to the Servicer and the Administrator by facsimile transmission, notification of
LIBOR for the following Interest Period. On the November 21, 2002 LIBOR
Determination Date, such notification set LIBOR as 1.38000%.
Section 4.13 Investment Instructions. Any investment instructions required
to be given to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof must be given
to the Indenture Trustee no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
date such investment is to be made. In the event the Indenture Trustee receives
such investment instruction later than such time, the Indenture Trustee may, but
shall have no obligation to, make such investment. In the event the Indenture
Trustee is unable to make an investment required in an investment instruction
received by the Indenture Trustee after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such
day, such investment shall be made by the Indenture Trustee on the next
succeeding Business Day. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for
any investment not made pursuant to investment instructions received after 12:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the day such investment is requested to be made.
Section 4.14 Exchange of Notes for Transferor Amount. If the Transferor
purchases Series 2002-3 Notes from Series 2002-3 Noteholders, the Transferor
may, on any Distribution Date (after giving effect to all required allocations
and payments on such Distribution Date), cancel such purchased Series 2002-3
Notes by delivering a written request to the Indenture Trustee to do so;
provided, however, that the Transferor may only cancel Class A, Class B and
Class C Notes it has purchased if the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied
and a credit enhancement deficiency will not result. The Transferor may in
connection with such cancellation reduce a portion of the O/C Amount and may
(but shall not be required to) cancel such portion of the O/C Amount, provided
that the reduction in the O/C Amount resulting from such cancellation may not
result in the O/C Amount being less than the Required O/C Amount. As a result of
any cancellation of Series 2002-3 Notes pursuant to this Section, (a) the
Invested Amount shall be reduced by (i) the aggregate principal amount of such
purchased Series 2002-3
28
Notes and (ii) the reduction in the O/C Amount and (b) the Transferor Amount
shall be increased in an amount equal to such reduction in the Invested Amount.
