(i) the CNHCA Purchased Contracts and the CNHCA Owned Contracts, including all documents constituting chattel paper included therewith, and all obligations of the Obligors thereunder, including all moneys paid thereunder on or after the Initial Cutoff Date;

(ii) the security interests in the Financed Equipment granted by Obligors pursuant to the CNHCA Purchased Contracts and the CNHCA Owned Contracts and any other interest of CNHCA in such Financed Equipment;

(iii) any proceeds with respect to the CNHCA Purchased Contracts and the CNHCA Owned Contracts from claims on insurance policies covering Financed Equipment or Obligors;

(iv) any proceeds from recourse to Dealers with respect to the CNHCA Purchased Contracts and the CNHCA Owned Contracts other than any interest in the Dealers’ reserve accounts maintained with CNHCA;

(v) any Financed Equipment that shall have secured the CNHCA Purchased Contracts and the CNHCA Owned Contracts and that shall have been acquired by or on behalf of CNHCR;

(vi) any True Lease Equipment that is subject to any CNHCA Purchased Contract or any CNHCA Owned Contract; and

(vii) the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.

Insofar as the grant above relates to CNHCA Owned Contracts and related property, it is made for administrative convenience and is not intended to derogate from the prior conveyance of the CNHCA Owned Contracts and related property pursuant to the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement.

SECTION 2.2. Conveyance of Subsequent CNHCA Receivables. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.1(b), in consideration of CNHCR’s delivery on the related Subsequent Transfer Date to or upon the order of CNHCA of the related Subsequent CNHCA Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.5, CNHCA does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to CNHCR, without recourse (subject to the obligations herein), all of its right, title, interest and, with respect to any Contracts that are Leases, obligations in, to and under (collectively, the “Subsequent CNHCA Assets”; and together with the Initial CNHCA Assets, the “CNHCA Assets”):

(i) the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables listed on Schedule A to the related CNHCA Subsequent Transfer Assignment, including all documents constituting chattel paper included therewith, and all obligations of the Obligors thereunder, including all moneys paid thereunder on or after the related Subsequent Cutoff Date;

(ii) the security interests in the Financed Equipment granted by Obligors pursuant to such Subsequent CNHCA Receivables and any other interest of CNHCA in such Financed Equipment;

(iii) any proceeds with respect to such Subsequent CNHCA Receivables from claims on insurance policies covering Financed Equipment or Obligors;

(iv) any proceeds with respect to such Subsequent CNHCA Receivables from recourse to Dealers other than any interest in the Dealers’ reserve accounts maintained with CNHCA;

(v) any Financed Equipment that shall have secured any such Subsequent CNHCA Receivable and that shall have been acquired by or on behalf of CNHCR;

(vi) any True Lease Equipment that is subject to any Subsequent CNHCA Receivable; and

(vii) the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.

SECTION 2.3. Intention of the Parties. The parties to this Agreement intend that the transactions contemplated hereby shall be, and shall be treated as, a purchase by CNHCR and a sale by CNHCA of the CNHCA Purchased Contracts and the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables and any True Lease Equipment related to such CNHCA Purchased Contracts or Subsequent CNHCA Receivables, as the case may be, and not as a lending transaction, such that in the event of a filing of a petition for relief by or against CNHCA under the Bankruptcy Code, such CNHCA Purchased Contracts, Subsequent CNHCA Receivables and True Lease Equipment would not be property of CNHCA’s bankruptcy estate under Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) the bankruptcy court would not compel the turnover of such CNHCA Purchased Contracts, Subsequent CNHCA Receivables and True Lease Equipment or collections thereon by CNHCR to CNHCA under Section 542 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) the bankruptcy court would determine that payments on such CNHCA Purchased Contracts, Subsequent CNHCA Receivables and True Lease Equipment not in the possession of CNHCA would not be subject to the automatic stay provisions of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code imposed upon the commencement of CNHCA’s bankruptcy case. The foregoing sale, assignment, transfer and conveyance does

not constitute, and is not intended to result in a creation or assumption by CNHCR of, any obligation or liability with respect to any CNHCA Purchased Contract or any Subsequent CNHCA Receivables, nor shall CNHCR be obligated to perform or otherwise be responsible for any obligation of CNHCA or any other Person in connection with the CNHCA Purchased Contracts or the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any contract or any other obligation to any Obligor, except that CNHCR accepts any Contracts that are Leases subject to (and assumes) the covenants benefiting the Obligors under such Leases.

If (but only to the extent that) the transfer of the CNHCA Assets hereunder is characterized by a court or other governmental authority as a loan rather than a sale, CNHCA shall be deemed hereunder to have granted to CNHCR a security interest in all of CNHCA’s right, title and interest in and to the CNHCA Assets. Such security interest shall secure all of CNHCA’s obligations (monetary or otherwise) under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party, whether now or hereafter existing or arising, due or to become due, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent. CNHCR shall have, with respect to the property described in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2, and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to CNHCR under this Agreement and applicable law, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC, and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

SECTION 2.4. The Closing. The sale and purchase of the CNHCA Purchased Contracts shall take place at a closing at the offices of Mayer, Brown, Xxxx & Maw LLP, 000 Xxxxx XxXxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 on the Closing Date, simultaneously with the closings under: (a) the NH Purchase Agreement, (b) the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (c) the Trust Agreement, (d) the Administration Agreement and (e) the Indenture.

SECTION 2.5. Payment of the Purchase Price.

(a) CNHCA Purchased Contracts. The Initial CNHCA Purchase Price is payable as follows: (i) partially in cash on the Closing Date, and (ii) the remainder shall be deemed to have been paid by CNHCR to CNHCA and returned by CNHCA to CNHCR as a contribution to capital.

(b) Subsequent CNHCA Receivables. As consideration for the conveyance of Subsequent CNHCA Receivables pursuant to Section 2.2, CNHCR shall pay or cause to be paid to CNHCA on each Subsequent Transfer Date an amount (a “Subsequent CNHCA Purchase Price”) equal to the aggregate Contract Value of the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables as of the related Subsequent Cutoff Date, plus any premium or minus any discount agreed upon by CNHCA and CNHCR. Any Subsequent CNHCA Purchase Price shall be payable as follows: (i) cash in the amount released to CNHCR in respect of the Subsequent CNHCA

Receivables from the Pre-Funding Account pursuant to Section 5.8(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall be paid to CNHCA on the related Subsequent Transfer Date; and (ii) the balance shall be paid in cash as and when amounts are released to, or otherwise realized by, CNHCR from the Spread Account, the Negative Carry Account, and the Principal Supplement Account in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or otherwise are available for such purpose.

SECTION 2.6. Cross-Collateralization. To the extent CNHCA retains any interest in any item of Financed Equipment securing the repayment of any CNHCA Receivable, as a result of the related Obligor agreeing to cross-collateralize all obligations owed by such Obligor to CNHCA or otherwise, CNHCA acknowledges and agrees that its interest in the Financed Equipment shall be expressly subordinate and junior in priority to the repayment of all amounts outstanding under such CNHCA Receivable prior to becoming available to pay any amount outstanding under any other obligation owed by such Obligor to CNHCA.

(b) CNHCA makes the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which CNHCR relies in accepting the Initial Receivables and the Subsequent Receivables and in transferring the Receivables to the Trust. Such representations and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Receivables, and as of the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, in the case of the Subsequent Receivables, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to CNHCR and the subsequent assignment and transfer of such Receivables to the Trust pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and pursuant to the Indenture:

(i) Characteristics of CNHCA Receivables. Each CNHCA Receivable: (A) (1) (i) was originated in the United States of America by a Dealer in connection with the retail sale or lease of Financed Equipment in the ordinary course of such Dealer’s business, and (ii) was purchased by CNHCA from a

Dealer and validly assigned by such Dealer to CNHCA in accordance with its terms, or (2) was originated in the United States of America by CNHCA in connection with the financing or lease of Financed Equipment in the ordinary course of CNHCA’s business and, in either case, was fully and properly executed by the parties thereto, (B) has created a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority security interest in the Financed Equipment in favor of CNHCA (except to the extent that such security interest has been assigned by CNHCA to CNHCR, by CNHCR to the Issuer and by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee), except that (x) no security interest against the Obligor is created in True Lease Equipment, and (y) CNHCA makes no representation or warranty as to any such security interest granted by any Dealer to secure the Dealer’s obligations to make payments in respect of Termination Values, (C) contains customary and enforceable provisions such that the rights and remedies of the holder thereof are adequate for realization against the collateral of the benefits of the security, and (D) (i) in the case of Retail Installment Contracts, provides for fixed payments on a periodic basis that fully amortize the Amount Financed by maturity and yield interest at the Annual Percentage Rate, and (ii) in the case of any Contracts sold, or to be sold, hereunder that are Leases, provides for fixed payments on a periodic basis that fully amortize the Amount Financed by maturity and yield interest at the Annual Percentage Rate, except that any Contracts sold, or to be sold, hereunder that are Leases also provide for payments of the related Termination Values.

(ii) Schedule of CNHCA Receivables. The information set forth on Schedule A to the CNHCA Assignment delivered on the Closing Date is true and correct in all material respects as of the opening of business on the Initial Cutoff Date and the information set forth on Schedule A to the related CNHCA Subsequent Transfer Assignment will be true and correct on each Subsequent Transfer Date related to such CNHCA Subsequent Transfer Assignment and no selection procedures believed by CNHCA to be adverse to the interests of the Trust, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders were or will be utilized in selecting the CNHCA Receivables. The computer tape regarding the CNHCA Receivables made available to CNHCR and its assigns is true and correct in all respects.

(iii) Compliance with Law. Each CNHCA Receivable and the sale or lease of the related Financed Equipment complied in all material respects at the time it was originated or made and at the execution of this Agreement and each CNHCA Subsequent Transfer Assignment complies in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations thereunder, including usury law, the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxx Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulations B and Z, the Wisconsin Consumer Act and state adaptations of the National Consumer Act and of the Uniform

Consumer Credit Code, and other consumer credit laws and equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws.

(iv) Binding Obligation. Each CNHCA Receivable represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the Obligor, enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its terms.

(v) No Government Obligor. None of the CNHCA Receivables is due from the United States of America or any state or from any agency, department or instrumentality of the United States of America or any state.

(vi) Security Interest in Financed Equipment. Immediately prior to the sale, assignment and transfer thereof, each CNHCA Receivable shall be secured by a validly perfected first priority security interest in the Financed Equipment in favor of CNHCA as secured party or all necessary and appropriate actions have been commenced that would result in the valid perfection of a first priority security interest in the Financed Equipment in favor of CNHCA as secured party, except that (A) no security interest against the Obligor is created in True Lease Equipment and (B) CNHCA makes no representation or warranty as to any security interest granted by any Dealer to secure the Dealer’s obligations to make payments in respect of Termination Values.

(vii) CNHCA Receivables in Force. No CNHCA Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor has any Financed Equipment been released from the Lien granted by the related CNHCA Receivable in whole or in part.

(viii) No Amendment or Waiver. No provision of a CNHCA Receivable has been waived, altered or modified in any respect, except pursuant to a document, instrument or writing included in the Receivable Files and no such amendment, waiver, alteration or modification causes such CNHCA Receivable not to conform to the other warranties contained in this Section.

(ix) No Defenses. No right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted or threatened or exists with respect to any CNHCA Receivable.

(x) No Liens. To the best of CNHCA’s knowledge, no Liens or claims, including claims for work, labor or materials, relating to any of the Financed Equipment have been filed that are Liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in the Financed Equipment granted by any CNHCA Receivable, except those pursuant to the Basic Documents.

(xi) No Default. No CNHCA Receivable is a non-performing Receivable or has a payment that is more than 90 days overdue as of the Initial Cutoff Date or Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable, and, except for a payment

default continuing for a period of not more than 90 days, no default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any CNHCA Receivable has occurred and is continuing; and no continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time would constitute such a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any CNHCA Receivable has arisen; and CNHCA has not waived and shall not waive any of the foregoing.

(xii) Title. It is the intention of CNHCA that the transfers and assignments contemplated herein and in the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement constitute a sale of the CNHCA Receivables from CNHCA to CNHCR and that the beneficial interest in and title to the CNHCA Receivables and any True Lease Equipment related to such CNHCA Receivables not be part of the debtor’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against CNHCA under any bankruptcy or similar law. No CNHCA Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by CNHCA to any Person other than CNHCR. Immediately prior to the transfers and assignments contemplated herein and in the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement, CNHCA had good title to each CNHCA Receivable and any True Lease Equipment related to such CNHCA Receivable, free and clear of all Liens and, immediately upon the transfer thereof, CNHCR shall have good title to each CNHCA Receivable and any True Lease Equipment, free and clear of all Liens; and the transfer and assignment of the CNHCA Receivables to CNHCR has been perfected under the UCC.

(xiii) Lawful Assignment. No CNHCA Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer and assignment of such CNHCA Receivable or any CNHCA Receivable under this Agreement, the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable.

(xiv) All Filings Made. All filings (including UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give CNHCR a first priority perfected ownership interest in the CNHCA Receivables will be made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(xv) One Original. There is only one original executed copy of each CNHCA Receivable.

(xvi) Maturity of Receivables. Each Receivable has a remaining term to maturity of not more than 72 months, in the case of the Initial Receivables, and 72 months, in the case of the Subsequent Receivables; the weighted average remaining term of the Initial Receivables is approximately 43.45 months as of the Initial Cutoff Date; the weighted average original term of the Receivables, including as of each Subsequent Transfer Date all Subsequent Receivables previously transferred to CNHCR, will not be greater than 55 months.

(xvii) Scheduled Payments. No Receivable has a final scheduled payment date later than six months preceding the Final Scheduled Maturity Date; each Receivable provides for payments that fully amortize the Amount Financed over the original term of the Receivable, and is either a Precomputed Receivable or a Simple Interest Receivable.

(xviii) Insurance. The Obligor on each CNHCA Receivable is required to maintain physical damage insurance covering the Financed Equipment and, in the case of any Lease, public liability insurance relating to the use of such Financed Equipment, in each case in accordance with CNHCA’s normal requirements.

(xix) Concentrations. (A) No Receivable has a Statistical Contract Value (when combined with the Statistical Contract Value of any other Receivable with the same or an Affiliated Obligor) that exceeds 1% of the Initial Aggregate Statistical Contract Value.

(xx) Financing. Approximately 61.17% of the aggregate Statistical Contract Value of the Initial Receivables, were secured by or constitute Receivables of equipment that was new at the time the related Initial Receivable was originated; the remainder of the Initial Receivables represent financing or leases of used equipment; approximately 70.17% of the aggregate Statistical Contract Value of the Initial Receivables, represent financing or leases of agricultural equipment; the remainder of the Initial Receivables represent financing or leases of construction equipment. The aggregate Statistical Contract Value of the Receivables for the purposes of the above calculations as of the Initial Cutoff Date is $929,984,960.12. Additionally, not more than 35% of the aggregate Contract Value of the Receivables, including, as of each Subsequent Transfer Date, all Subsequent Receivables previously transferred to CNHCR, will represent Contracts for the financing or lease of construction equipment. No Subsequent Receivable will represent the financing of truck equipment.

(xxi) No Bankruptcies. No Obligor on any CNHCA Receivable as of the Initial Cutoff Date or the Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable, was noted in the related Receivable File as being the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.

(xxii) No Repossessions. None of the Financed Equipment securing any CNHCA Receivable is in repossession status.

(xxiii) Chattel Paper. Each CNHCA Receivable constitutes “chattel paper” as defined in the UCC of each State the law of which governs the perfection of the interest granted in it and/or the priority of such perfected interest.

(xxiv) U.S. Obligors. None of the CNHCA Receivables is denominated and payable in any currency other than United States Dollars or is due from any Person that does not have a mailing address in the United States of America.

(xxv) Payment Frequency. As of the Initial Cutoff Date and as shown on the books of CNHCA: (A) Initial Receivables having an aggregate Statistical Contract Value equal to 46.17% of the Initial Aggregate Statistical Contract Value had annual scheduled payments, (B) Initial Receivables having an aggregate Statistical Contract Value equal to 3.04% of the Initial Aggregate Statistical Contract Value had semi-annual scheduled payments, (C) Initial Receivables having an aggregate Statistical Contract Value equal to 0.82% of the Initial Aggregate Statistical Contract Value had quarterly scheduled payments, (D) Initial Receivables having an aggregate Statistical Contract Value equal to 44.45% of the Initial Aggregate Statistical Contract Value had monthly scheduled payments, and (E) Initial Receivables having an aggregate Statistical Contract Value equal to 5.51% of the Initial Aggregate Statistical Contract Value had irregularly scheduled payments.

(xxvi) Interest Accruing. Each CNHCA Receivable, other than those CNHCA Receivables consisting of Contracts that contain interest waivers for a specified period of time, is, as of the Closing Date or a Subsequent Transfer Date, as applicable, accruing interest; no CNHCA Receivable contains an interest waiver extending more than 12 months after the Initial Cutoff Date.

(xxvii) Leases. Each Lease included in the Initial CNHCA Receivables or the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables has a Termination Value less than or equal to 10% of the purchase price of the equipment subject to such Lease and is a “lease intended as security” (rather than a true lease) within the meaning of Section 1-201(37) of the UCC.

(xxviii) CNHCA’s Representations. The representations and warranties of CNHCA contained in Section 3.2(a) are true and correct.

(xxix) CNHCA’s Obligations. CNHCA has no obligations under any Contract, other than the covenant of quiet enjoyment benefiting the Obligors under any Contracts that are Leases.

(xxx) No Either/or Leases. No Lease included in the Initial CNHCA Receivables or the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables is an Either/or Lease, and no Financed Equipment transferred to CNHCR on the Closing Date or any Subsequent Transfer Date, as the case may be, constitutes True Lease Equipment.

(xxxi) No Leases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Basic Documents, none of the Initial CNHCA Receivables or the Subsequent CNHCA Receivables shall be Leases.

(xxxii) Perfection Representations. CNHCA further makes all the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Schedule P.

ARTICLE V
Covenants of CNHCA

CNHCA agrees with CNHCR as follows; provided, however, that to the extent that any provision of this Article conflicts with any provision of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall govern:

SECTION 5.1. Protection of Right, Title and Interest. (a) Filings. CNHCA shall cause all financing statements and continuation statements and any other necessary documents covering the right, title and interest of CNHCR in and to the CNHCA Receivables and the other property included in the Trust Estate to be promptly filed, and at all times to be kept recorded, registered and filed, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve and protect the right, title and interest of CNHCR hereunder to the CNHCA Receivables and the other property sold hereunder. It is understood and agreed, however, that no filings will be made to perfect any security interest of CNHCR in CNHCA’s interests in Financed Equipment. CNHCA shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to CNHCR file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document recorded, registered or filed as provided above as soon as available following such recordation, registration or filing. CNHCR shall cooperate fully with CNHCA in connection with the obligations set forth above and will execute any and all documents reasonably required to fulfill the intent of this paragraph.

(b) Name Change. Within 15 days after CNHCA makes any change in its name, identity or organizational structure that would or could reasonably be expected to make any financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with paragraph (a) seriously misleading within the applicable provisions of the UCC or any title statute, CNHCA shall give CNHCR notice of any such change, and no later than five days after the effective date thereof, shall file such financing statements or amendments as may be necessary to continue the perfection of CNHCR’s interest in the property included in the Trust Estate.

(c) Location Change. Within 15 days after CNHCA makes any change to its “location” as defined in Section 9-307 of the UCC, CNHCA shall give CNHCR notice of any such change, and no later than five days after the effective date thereof, shall file such financing statements or amendments as may be necessary to continue the perfection of CNHCR’s interest in the property included in the Trust Estate

SECTION 5.2. Other Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances hereunder and pursuant to the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the other Basic Documents, CNHCA: (a) will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on, any interest in, to and under the CNHCA Receivables, and (b) shall defend the right, title and interest of

CNHCR in, to and under the CNHCA Receivables against all claims of third parties claiming through or under CNHCA; provided, however, that CNHCA’s obligations under this Section shall terminate upon the termination of the Trust pursuant to the Trust Agreement.

SECTION 5.3. Jurisdiction of Organization. During the term of the CNHCA Receivables, CNHCA will maintain its “location” (as defined in Section 9-307 of the UCC) in one of the States.

SECTION 5.4. Costs and Expenses. CNHCA agrees to pay all reasonable costs and disbursements in connection with the perfection, as against all third parties, of CNHCR’s right, title and interest in, to and under the CNHCA Receivables.

SECTION 5.5. Indemnification. CNHCA shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CNHCR for any liability as a result of the failure of a CNHCA Receivable to be originated in compliance with all requirements of law and for any breach of any of its representations and warranties contained herein. These indemnity obligations shall be in addition to any obligation that CNHCA may otherwise have. CNHCA shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CNHCR, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Indenture Trustee (and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) from and against any taxes that may at any time be asserted against such Person with respect to the sale of the CNHCA Receivables to CNHCR hereunder or the sale of the CNHCA Receivables to the Issuer by CNHCR or the issuance and original sale of the Certificates and the Notes, including any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible personal property, privilege or license taxes (but, in the case of CNHCR and the Issuer, not including any taxes asserted with respect to ownership of the CNHCA Receivables on federal or other income taxes arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and costs and expenses in defending against the same.

SECTION 5.6. Transfer of Subsequent CNHCA Receivables. CNHCA covenants to transfer to CNHCR, pursuant to Section 2.2, Subsequent CNHCA Receivables with an aggregate Contract Value approximately equal to $501,963,786.66 minus the aggregate Contract Value of any Receivables sold to CNHCR by NH Credit pursuant to Section 5.6 of the NH Purchase Agreement, subject only to the availability of such Subsequent CNHCA Receivables.

SECTION 5.7. Cross-Collateralization. To the extent that CNHCA transfers, sells, assigns or otherwise pledges any contract to a third party and retains any interest in any item of Financed Equipment securing the repayment of any CNHCA Receivable, as a result of the related Obligor agreeing to cross-collateralize all obligations owed by such Obligor to CNHCA and its assigns or otherwise, CNHCA acknowledges and agrees that it shall obtain from such third party an agreement that such third party’s interest in the Financed Equipment

shall be expressly subordinate and junior in priority to the repayment of all amounts outstanding under such CNHCA Receivable prior to becoming available to pay any amount outstanding under any other obligation owed by such Obligor to such third party.

SECTION 6.2. Repurchase Events.

SECTION 6.3. CNHCR Assignment of Repurchased Receivables. With respect to all Receivables repurchased by CNHCA pursuant to this Agreement, CNHCR shall sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to CNHCA, without recourse, representation or warranty, all of CNHCR’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Receivables, and all security and documents relating thereto.

SECTION 6.5. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time, with prior written notice to the Rating Agencies, by a written amendment duly

executed and delivered by CNHCA and CNHCR, without the consent of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement or 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 the Certificateholders; provided, however, that such amendment will not in the Opinion of Counsel, materially and adversely affect the interest of any Noteholder or Certificateholder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any term or provision of this Agreement may be amended by CNHCA and CNHCR without the consent of the Certificateholders, the Noteholders or any other Person to add, modify or eliminate any provisions as may be necessary or advisable in order to comply with or obtain more favorable treatment under or with respect to any law or regulation or any accounting rule or principle (whether now or in the future in effect); it being a condition to any such amendment that the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders or Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

SECTION 6.6. Accountants’ Letters. (a) A firm of independent certified public accountants will review the characteristics of the Receivables described in the Schedule of Receivables and will compare those characteristics to the information with respect to the Receivables contained in the Prospectus, (b) CNHCA will cooperate with CNHCR and such accounting firm in making available all information and taking all steps reasonably necessary to permit such accounting firm to complete the review set forth in clause (a) and to deliver the letters required of them under the Underwriting Agreement, (c) such accounting firm will deliver to CNHCR a letter, dated the date of the Prospectus, in the form

previously agreed to by CNHCA, NH Credit and CNHCR, with respect to the financial and statistical information contained in the Prospectus and with respect to such other information as may be agreed in the form of the letter.

SECTION 6.7. Waivers. No failure or delay on the part of CNHCR in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement, the CNHCA Assignment or any CNHCA Subsequent Transfer Assignment shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.

Schedule P

1. General. The CNHCA Purchase Agreement creates, or with respect to CNHCA Receivables that are Subsequent Receivables upon the transfer of such Subsequent Receivables pursuant to the Subsequent Transfer Assignment will create, a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the UCC) in the CNHCA Receivables in favor of CNHCR, which, (a) is enforceable upon execution of the CNHCA Purchase Agreement against creditors of and purchasers from CNHCA, as such enforceability may be limited by applicable debtor relief laws, now or hereafter in effect, and by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity), and (b) upon filing of the financing statements described in clause 4 below will be prior to all other Liens (other than Liens permitted pursuant to clause 3 below).

2. General. The CNHCA Receivables constitute “tangible chattel paper” within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102. CNHCA has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security interest against the Obligor in the Financed Equipment securing the CNHCA Receivables.

3. Creation. Immediately prior to the conveyance of the CNHCA Receivables pursuant to the CNHCA Purchase Agreement, CNHCA owns and has good and marketable title to, or has a valid security interest in, the CNHCA Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

4. Perfection. CNHCA has caused or will have caused, within ten days of the Closing Date, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest granted to CNHCR under the CNHCA Purchase Agreement in the CNHCA Receivables. With respect to the CNHCA Receivables that constitute tangible chattel paper, CNHCA has in its possession the original copies of such tangible chattel paper that constitute or evidence the CNHCA Receivables, and CNHCA has caused, or will have caused within ten days of the effective date of the CNHCA Purchase Agreement, the filing of financing statements against CNHCA and such originator in favor of CNHCR in connection herewith describing such CNHCA Receivables and containing a statement that: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Secured Party/Buyer.”

5. Priority. Other than the security interests granted to CNHCR pursuant to the CNHCA Purchase Agreement and the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement, CNHCA has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the CNHCA Receivables. CNHCA has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against CNHCA that include a description of collateral covering the CNHCA Receivables

other than any financing statement (i) relating to the security interests granted to CNHCR under the CNHCA Purchase Agreement and the CNHCA Liquidity Receivables Purchase Agreement (ii) that has been terminated, or (iii) that has been granted pursuant to the terms of the Basic Documents. None of the tangible chattel paper that constitutes or evidences the CNHCA Receivables has any marks or notations indicating that they have pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than Indenture Trustee.
