Out Securitization has not occurred within 90 days of such day or (b)
LIBOR for any Interest Period with respect to any outstanding Advance
exceeds LIBOR for the prior Interest Period with respect to such
Advance by .80% or more and the Borrower has not given the Agent an
Advance Request with respect to an Advance to be made on or after such
date, the Borrower shall, within five Business Days of the occurrence
of such event, obtain and keep in effect at all times until the
termination of this Agreement an interest rate cap agreement
acceptable to the Agent with a notional amount at least equal to the
outstanding principal balance of all Advances and which provides that
the counterparty thereunder shall make payments to the Collection
Account no less frequently than monthly at a rate equal to the amount

which the Portfolio Net Loss Rate is greater than 4.0%, the
Average Excess Spread Percentage is less than (x) 5.5% plus (y)
for every increase of .25% in the Portfolio Net Loss Rate over
4.0%, .25%;"

to the effectiveness of this Amendment that:

the Agent in connection with this Amendment and the administration of the
Agreement incurred to date (including rating agency fees, if any, incurred in
connection with DLJ's refinancing of its commitment under the Agreement).
(b) The following representation and warranty shall be true and
correct: Arcadia or an Affiliate thereof shall be a party to a warehouse
credit facility pursuant to which Arcadia or such Affiliate can borrow funds
to and including November 10, 1998 to finance the purchase or origination of
retail automobile installment sales contracts of the same type as the
Receivables permitted to be financed under the Agreement.
SECTION 4. OTHER AGREEMENTS. Arcadia, DLJ and the Borrower
further agree that:

all accrued and unpaid Yield thereon) on or prior to July 24, 1998.
(b) From and after July 24, 1998, the Borrower shall not request
an Advance pursuant to the Agreement unless (x) the Borrower or any Affiliate
thereof is at such time a party to one or more other credit facilities
pursuant to which the Borrower or such Affiliate can borrow funds for the
purpose of financing the purchase or origination of retail automobile
installment contracts of the same type as the Receivables permitted to be
financed under the Agreement and (y) the Borrower or such Affiliate is unable
to borrow under any such credit facility and such inability is due solely (i)
to the fact that any applicable limits on borrowings (including any limits
applicable to certain designated types of such contracts) has been reached or
exceeded; (ii) the
4
lenders or purchasers under such facilities are unable to provide funding
because of events unrelated to Arcadia or any of its subsidiaries (other than

purchaser under such facility.

confirmed.

hereto represents and warrants that all of their representations and
warranties contained in the Transaction Documents are true and correct in all
material respects on the date hereof and with the same force and effect as

same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to
this Amendment by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually
