maintained (i) with a Qualified Institution, or (ii) as a segregated trust
account with the corporate trust department of a depository institution or trust
company having corporate trust powers and acting as trustee for funds deposited
in the Series 2003-3 Reserve Account; PROVIDED that, if at any time such
Qualified Institution is no longer a Qualified Institution or the credit rating
of any securities issued by such depositary institution or trust company shall
be reduced to below "BBB-" by Standard & Poor's or "Baa2" by Xxxxx'x, then
AFC-II shall, within 30 days of such reduction, establish a new Series 2003-3
Reserve Account with a new Qualified Institution. If the Series 2003-3 Reserve

any Permitted Investment held in the Series 2003-3 Reserve Account is held with
the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such Distribution Date and
such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such Distribution
Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series 2003-3
Reserve Account and any such Permitted Investments that constitute (i) physical
property (and that is not either a United States security entitlement or a
security
-34-
CONFORMED COPY

security entitlements or security entitlements shall be controlled (as defined

time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in
exchange for the Series 2003-3 Reserve Account, the funds on deposit therein

of any and all of the foregoing, including, without limitation, cash (the items

defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the New York UCC) and (iii) to comply with any
entitlement order (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the New York UCC) issued

CONFORMED COPY
account (the "SERIES 2003-3 CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT"), bearing a designation

as a segregated trust account with the corporate trust department of a
depository institution or trust company having corporate trust powers and acting
as trustee for funds deposited in the Series 2003-3 Cash Collateral Account;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if at any time such Qualified Institution is no longer a
Qualified Institution or the credit rating of any securities issued by such
depository institution or trust company shall be reduced to below "BBB-" by

AFC-II may instruct (by standing instructions or otherwise) the institution

in the Series 2003-3 Cash Collateral Account from time to time in Permitted
Investments; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such investment shall mature not later
than the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date following the date on which
such funds were received, unless any Permitted Investment held in the Series
2003-3 Cash Collateral Account is held with the Paying Agent, in which case such
investment may mature on such Distribution Date so long as such funds shall be
available for withdrawal on or prior to such Distribution Date. All such
Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series 2003-3 Cash Collateral
Account and any such Permitted Investments that constitute (i) physical property
(and that is not either a United States security entitlement or a security
entitlement) shall be physically delivered to the Trustee; (ii) United States
security entitlements or security entitlements shall be controlled (as defined
in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) by the Trustee pending maturity or
disposition, and (iii) uncertificated securities (and not United States security
entitlements) shall be delivered to the Trustee by causing the Trustee to become
the registered holder of such securities. The Trustee shall, at the expense of
AFC-II, take such action as is required to maintain the Trustee's security
interest in the Permitted Investments credited to the Series 2003-3 Cash
Collateral Account. AFC-II shall not direct the Trustee to dispose of (or permit
the disposal of) any Permitted Investments prior to the maturity thereof to the
extent such disposal would result in a loss of principal of such Permitted
Investment. In the absence of written investment instructions hereunder, funds
on deposit in the Series 2003-3 Cash Collateral Account shall remain uninvested.
(h) EARNINGS FROM SERIES 2003-3 CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT. All

greater than zero, the Trustee, acting in
-39-

Series 2003-3 Letter of Credit Providers to the extent of any unreimbursed

Account and pay to the Surety Provider an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
Series 2003-3 Available Cash Collateral Account Amount on such date and (ii)
such Preference Amount. Prior to any withdrawal from the Series 2003-3 Cash
Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.8(j), the Trustee shall have

prior payment of all amounts owing to the Series 2003-3 Noteholders and to the
Surety Provider and payable from the Series 2003-3 Cash Collateral Account as
provided herein, shall withdraw from the Series 2003-3 Cash Collateral Account

2.8(i) above) and shall pay such amounts: FIRST, to the Series 2003-3 Letter of
Credit Providers to the extent of any unreimbursed drawings under the related

the name of the Series 2003-3 Agent for the benefit of the Series 2003-3
Noteholders and the Surety Provider, or cause to be established and maintained,
an account (the "SERIES 2003-3 DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT"), bearing a designation
clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of
the Series 2003-3 Noteholders and the Surety Provider. The Series 2003-3
Distribution Account shall be maintained (i) with a Qualified Institution, or
(ii) as a segregated trust account with the corporate trust department of a
depository institution or trust company having corporate trust powers and acting
as trustee for funds deposited in the Series 2003-3 Distribution Account;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if at any time such Qualified Institution is no longer a
Qualified Institution or the credit rating of any securities issued by such
depositary institution or trust company shall be reduced to below "BBB-" by
Standard & Poor's or "Baa3" by Moody's, then AFC-II shall, within 30 days of
such reduction, establish a new Series 2003-3 Distribution Account with a new
Qualified Institution. If the Series 2003-3 Distribution Account is not
maintained in accordance with the previous sentence, AFC-II shall establish a
new Series 2003-3 Distribution Account, within ten (10) Business Days after
obtaining knowledge of such fact, which complies with such sentence, and shall

HOWEVER, that any such investment shall mature not later than the Business Day
prior to the Distribution Date following the date on which such funds were
received, unless any Permitted Investment held in the Series 2003-3 Distribution
Account is held with the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such
Distribution Date and such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior

the Series 2003-3 Distribution Account and any such Permitted Investments that
constitute (i) physical property (and that is not either a United States
security entitlement or a security entitlement) shall be physically delivered to
the Trustee; (ii) United States security entitlements or security entitlements
shall be controlled (as defined in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) by the

Each Series 2003-3 Interest Rate Swap must provide that if the
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty is required to take any of the actions described

ARTICLE IV
RIGHT TO WAIVE PURCHASE RESTRICTIONS
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Indenture or the
Related Documents, upon the Trustee's receipt of notice from any Lessee, any
Borrower or AFC-II (i) to the effect that a Manufacturer Program is no longer an
Eligible Manufacturer Program and that, as a result, the Series 2003-3 Maximum
Non-Program Vehicle Amount is or will be exceeded or (ii) that the Lessees, the
Borrowers and AFC-II have determined to increase any Series 2003-3 Maximum
Amount, (such notice, a "WAIVER REQUEST"), each Series 2003-3 Noteholder may, at
its option, waive the Series 2003-3 Maximum Non-Program Vehicle Amount or any
other Series 2003-3 Maximum Amount (collectively, a "WAIVABLE AMOUNT") if (i) no
Amortization Event exists, (ii) the Requisite Noteholders and the Surety
Provider consent to such waiver and (iii) 60 days' prior written notice of such
proposed waiver is provided to the Rating Agencies by the Trustee.
Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Waiver Request (a copy of which the
Trustee shall promptly provide to the Rating Agencies), all amounts which would
otherwise be allocated to the Series 2003-3 Excess Collection Account
(collectively, the "DESIGNATED AMOUNTS") from the date the Trustee receives a
Waiver Request through the Consent Period Expiration Date will be held by the
Trustee in the Series 2003-3 Collection Account for ratable distribution as
described below.
Within ten (10) Business Days after the Trustee receives a Waiver
Request, the Trustee shall furnish notice thereof to the Series 2003-3
Noteholders and the Surety Provider, which notice shall be accompanied by a form
of consent (each a "CONSENT") in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto by which the
Series 2003-3 Noteholders may, on or before the Consent Period Expiration Date,
consent to waiver of the applicable Waivable Amount. If the Trustee receives the
consent of the Surety Provider and Consents from the Requisite Noteholders
agreeing to waiver of the applicable Waivable Amount within forty-five (45) days
after the Trustee notifies the Series 2003-3 Noteholders of a Waiver Request
(the day on which such forty-five (45) day period expires, the "CONSENT PERIOD
EXPIRATION DATE"), (i) the applicable Waivable Amount shall be deemed waived by
the consenting Series 2003-3 Noteholders, (ii) the Trustee will distribute the
Designated Amounts as set forth below and (iii) the Trustee shall promptly (but
in any event within two days) provide the Rating Agency with notice of such
waiver. Any Series 2003-3 Noteholder from whom the Trustee has not received a
Consent on or before the Consent Period Expiration Date will be deemed not to
have consented to such waiver.
-45-
CONFORMED COPY
If the Trustee receives Consents from the Requisite Noteholders on or
before the Consent Period Expiration Date, then on the immediately following
Distribution Date, the Trustee will pay the Designated Amounts as follows:
(i) to the non-consenting Series 2003-3 Noteholders, if any, PRO
RATA up to the amount required to pay all Series 2003-3 Notes held by such
non-consenting Series 2003-3 Noteholders in full; and
(ii) any remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2003-3 Excess
Collection Account.
If the amount paid pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph
is not paid in full on the date specified therein, then on each day following
such Distribution Date, the Administrator will allocate to the Series 2003-3
Collection Account on a daily basis all Designated Amounts collected on such
day. On each following Distribution Date, the Trustee will withdraw a portion of
such Designated Amounts from the Series 2003-3 Collection Account and deposit
the same in the Series 2003-3 Distribution Account for distribution as follows:
(a) to the non-consenting Series 2003-3 Noteholders, if any, PRO
RATA an amount equal to the Designated Amounts in the Series 2003-3
Collection Account as of the applicable Determination Date up to the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Series 2003-3 Notes held by
the non-consenting Series 2003-3 Noteholders; and
(b) any remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2003-3 Excess
Collection Account.
If the Requisite Noteholders or the Surety Provider do not timely
consent to such waiver, the Designated Amounts will be re-allocated to the
Series 2003-3 Excess Collection Account for allocation and distribution in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Related Documents.
In the event that the Series 2003-3 Rapid Amortization Period shall
commence after receipt by the Trustee of a Waiver Request, all such Designated
Amounts will thereafter be considered Principal Collections allocated to the
Series 2003-3 Noteholders.
