ARTICLE III

The Receivables

SECTION 3.01 Representations and Warranties of Seller. The Seller makes the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which the Issuer is deemed to have relied in acquiring the Receivables. Such representations and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

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

(b) All Filings Made. All filings (including UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Issuer a first perfected ownership interest in the Receivables, and to give the Indenture Trustee a first perfected security interest therein, shall have been made.

SECTION 3.02 Repurchase by Seller upon Breach. The Seller, the Servicer, the Sub-Servicer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties to the Agreement and the Indenture Trustee and JDCC promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any

breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.01 or JDCC’s representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.02(b) of the Purchase Agreement. Unless any such breach shall have been cured by the last day of the second month following the month of the discovery thereof by the Owner Trustee or receipt by the Owner Trustee of written notice from the Seller, the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer of such breach, the Seller shall be obligated, and, if necessary, the Seller or the Owner Trustee shall enforce the obligation of JDCC under the Purchase Agreement, to repurchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by any such breach as of such last day (or, at the Seller’s option, the last day of the first month following the month of the discovery). In consideration of the repurchase of the Receivable, the Seller shall remit the Purchase Amount, in the manner specified in Section 5.03; provided, however, that the obligation of the Seller to repurchase any Receivable arising solely as a result of a breach of JDCC’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.02 (b) of the Purchase Agreement is subject to the receipt by the Seller of the Purchase Amount from JDCC. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, the sole remedy of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders or the Certificateholder with respect to a breach of representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.01 and the agreement contained in this Section shall be to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables pursuant to this Section, subject to the conditions contained herein, or to enforce JDCC’s obligation to the Seller to repurchase such Receivables pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Owner Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section.

SECTION 3.03 Custody of Receivable Files. To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Issuer hereby appoints the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act as the agent of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee as custodian of the following documents or instruments which are hereby constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Issuer with respect to each Receivable:

(a) the original executed copy of the Receivable;

(b) the original or a copy of the credit application fully executed by the Obligor;

(c) the original certificate of title (or a secured party copy thereof), the file stamped copy of the UCC financing statement or such other documents that the Seller or JDCC shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary procedures, evidencing the security interest of Deere & Company or an affiliate of Deere & Company in the Financed Equipment; and

(d) any and all other documents that JDCC or the Seller shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary procedures, relating to a Receivable, an Obligor or Financed Equipment.

SECTION 3.04 Duties of Servicer as Custodian.

(a) Safekeeping. The Servicer shall hold the Receivable Files on behalf of the Issuer and maintain such accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems pertaining to each Receivable File as shall enable the Issuer to comply with this Agreement.

The Servicer shall promptly report to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require an initial review or any periodic review by the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee of the Receivable Files.

(b) Maintenance of and Access to Records. The Servicer shall maintain each Receivable File at its office specified in Schedule B to this Agreement or at such other office as shall be specified to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by written notice not later than 90 days after any change in location. The Servicer shall make available to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee or their respective duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors a list of locations of the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems maintained by the Servicer at such times as the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall instruct.

(c) Release of Documents. Upon instruction from the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall release any Receivable File to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee’s agent, or the Indenture Trustee’s designee, as the case may be, at such place or places as the Indenture Trustee may designate, as soon as practicable.

SECTION 3.05 Instructions; Authority to Act. The Servicer shall be deemed to have received proper instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of written instructions signed by a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 3.06 Custodian’s Indemnification. The Servicer as custodian shall indemnify the Trust, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and each of their officers, directors and agents for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Trust, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or any of their officers, directors and agents as the result of any improper act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody by the Servicer as custodian of the Receivable Files; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable to the Trust or the Owner Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Owner Trustee and the Servicer shall not be liable to the Trust or the Indenture Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Indenture Trustee.

SECTION 3.07 Effective Period and Termination. The Servicer’s appointment as custodian shall become effective as of the Cut-off Date and shall continue in full force and effect until terminated pursuant to this Section. If JDCC shall resign as Servicer in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement or if all of the rights and obligations of any Servicer shall have been terminated under Section 8.01, the appointment of such Servicer as custodian shall be terminated by the Indenture Trustee or by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or, with the consent of Holders of the Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, by the Owner Trustee or by the Certificateholder, in the same manner as the Indenture Trustee or such Holders may terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under Section 8.01. The Indenture Trustee or, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee may terminate the Servicer’s appointment as custodian, with cause, at any time upon written notification to the Servicer, and without cause upon 30 days’ prior written notification to the Servicer. As soon as practicable after any termination of such appointment, the Servicer shall deliver the Receivable Files to the Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Trustee’s agent at such place or places as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate. The Servicer shall pay the fees of any other Person acting as custodian of the Receivables Files.

ARTICLE IV

Administration and Servicing of Receivables

SECTION 4.01 Duties of Servicer. The Servicer, as agent for the Issuer (to the extent provided herein), shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables (other than Purchased Receivables) with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable equipment receivables that it services for itself or others. The Servicer’s duties shall include calculating, billing, collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on such Receivables, investigating delinquencies, reporting tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections,

and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.02, the Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies and procedures in performing its duties as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder and the Noteholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or to the Financed Equipment securing such Receivables. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Issuer (in the case of a Receivable other than a Purchased Receivable) shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Servicer. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at the Servicer’s expense and direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder or the Noteholders. The Owner Trustee shall upon the written request of the Servicer furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.

SECTION 4.02 Collection of Receivable Payments. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to all comparable equipment receivables that it services for itself or others. In connection therewith, the Servicer may grant extensions, rebates or adjustments on a Receivable in accordance with its customary collection procedures with respect to all comparable equipment receivables that it services for itself or others; provided, however, that if the Servicer extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of any Receivable beyond March 27, 2010, it shall promptly purchase the Receivable from the Issuer in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07; provided, further, that the Servicer shall not extend the final Scheduled Payment for the sole purpose of purchasing the Receivables from the Issuer. The Servicer may in its discretion waive any additional interest above the related APR due on late Scheduled Payments or any other fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. The Servicer shall not agree to any alteration of the interest rate on any Receivable and shall not agree to waive the repayment of the Amount Financed, or any portion thereof, on a Receivable. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Recoveries shall be paid to the Seller and the related Liquidated Receivable shall be assigned by the Trust to the Seller.

SECTION 4.03 Realization upon Receivables. On behalf of the Issuer, the Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with its customary servicing procedures, to repossess or otherwise realize upon the Financed Equipment securing any Receivable as to which the Servicer shall have determined pursuant to customary servicing procedures that eventual payment in full is unlikely. The Servicer shall follow such customary and usual practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of comparable equipment receivables, which may include selling the Financed Equipment at public or private sale. The foregoing shall be subject to the provision that, in any case in which the Financed Equipment shall have suffered damage, consistent with its customary servicing procedures the Servicer may

but shall not be required to expend funds in connection with the repair or the repossession of such Financed Equipment.

SECTION 4.04 Physical Damage Insurance. The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, require that each Obligor shall have obtained physical damage insurance covering the Financed Equipment as of the execution of the Receivable.

SECTION 4.05 Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Equipment. The Servicer shall, in accordance with its customary servicing procedures, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Equipment. The Servicer is hereby authorized to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of the Financed Equipment or for any other reason.

SECTION 4.06 Covenants of Servicer. The Servicer shall not release the Financed Equipment securing any Receivable from the security interest granted by such Receivable in whole or in part except in accordance with Section 4.03 above or in the event of payment in full by the Obligor thereunder, nor shall the Servicer impair the rights of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder or the Noteholders in such Receivables, nor shall the Servicer increase the number of scheduled payments due under a Receivable except in accordance with the terms thereof or the terms of Section 4.02.

SECTION 4.07 Purchase by Servicer of Receivables upon Breach. The Servicer (or the Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Servicer) or the Owner Trustee shall inform the other party and the Indenture Trustee, the Seller and JDCC promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of Section 4.02, 4.05 or 4.06. Unless the breach shall have been cured by the last day of the second month following such discovery (or, at the Servicer’s election, the last day of the first following month), the Servicer shall purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach. If the Servicer takes any action pursuant to Section 4.02 that impairs the rights of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder or the Noteholders in any Receivable or as otherwise provided in Section 4.02, the Servicer shall purchase such Receivable. In consideration of the purchase of any such Receivable pursuant to either of the two preceding sentences, the Servicer shall remit the Purchase Amount in the manner specified in Section 5.03. Subject to Section 7.02, the sole remedy of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholder or the Noteholders with respect to a breach pursuant to Section 4.02, 4.05 or 4.06 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Receivables pursuant to this Section.

SECTION 4.08 Servicing Fee. On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee in respect of the immediately preceding Collection Period equal to the product of (a) one twelfth of the Servicing Fee Rate and (b) the Pool Balance as of the first day of such preceding Collection Period subject to the order and priority set forth in Section 5.04. The Servicer shall also be entitled to that portion of interest due on a Receivable that is in excess of interest at the related APR and that is due because of a late Scheduled Payment, and other administrative fees or similar charges allowed by applicable law or the Receivable with respect to Receivables, collected (from whatever source) on the Receivables.

SECTION 4.09 Servicer’s Certificate. On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Seller, with a copy to the Rating Agencies, a Servicer’s Certificate containing all information necessary to make the distributions pursuant to Sections 5.04 and 5.06 for the Collection Period preceding the date of such Servicer’s Certificate. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee shall be required to determine, confirm or recalculate the information contained in the Servicer’s Certificate. Receivables to be purchased by the Servicer or to be repurchased by the Seller shall be identified by the Servicer by account number with respect to such Receivable (as specified in Schedule A).

SECTION 4.10 Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Default.

(a) The Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, on or before February 28 of each year beginning February 28, 2005, an Officers’ Certificate stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the 12-month period ending on October 31 of the preceding year (or, in the case of October 31, 2004, the period from the Closing Date to October 31, 2004) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled in all material respects all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such period or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such default known to such officers and the nature and status thereof. The Indenture Trustee shall send a copy of such certificate and the report referred to in Section 4.11 to the Rating Agencies. A copy of such certificate and the report referred to in Section 4.11 may be obtained by the Certificateholder by a request in writing to the Owner Trustee at its address in Section 10.03.

(b) The Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, written notice in an Officers’ Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default under Section 8.01(a) or (b).

SECTION 4.11 Annual Independent Certified Public Accountants’ Report. The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants, which may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller or JDCC, to deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee on or before February 28 (or, if the Trust is required to file a Form 10-K with the Commission with respect to the prior fiscal year, by such earlier date as will permit the timely filing of the Trust’s Form 10-K) of each year beginning in 2005, a report addressed to the Board of Directors of the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, to the effect that (a) such firm has examined management’s assertion that with respect to the Receivables the Servicer has complied for the most recent fiscal year of the Servicer, with the Servicer’s minimum servicing standards that are based on the Mortgage Banker’s Association of America’s Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, modified to address the unique characteristics of servicing agricultural and construction equipment loans; (b) such examination was conducted in accordance with the attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the

Access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during the normal business hours at the respective offices of the Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall affect the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

SECTION 4.13 Servicer Expenses. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder, including fees and disbursements of independent accountants, fees and disbursements incurred in connection with collection and enforcement of Receivables (other than amounts incurred in connection with the liquidation of a Receivable which amounts shall be netted against the Liquidation Proceeds, if any), taxes imposed on the Servicer and expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to the Certificateholder and the Noteholders.

(g) The Servicer shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Indenture, reimburse the Indenture Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with any provision of the Indenture (including, but not limited to, the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its agents and either in-house counsel or outside counsel, but not both) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith.

For purposes of this Section 7.02, in the event of the termination of the rights and obligations of JDCC (or any successor thereto pursuant to Section 7.03) as Servicer pursuant to Section 8.01, or a resignation by such Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, such Servicer shall be deemed to be the Servicer pending appointment of a successor Servicer (other than the Indenture Trustee) pursuant to Section 8.02.

Indemnification under this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or the termination of this Agreement and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer, without interest.

action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) above.

SECTION 7.04 Limitation on Liability of Servicer and Others. Neither the Servicer nor the Sub-Servicer nor any of the directors or officers or employees or agents of the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, shall be under any liability to the Issuer, the Noteholders or the Certificateholder, except as provided under this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer, the Sub-Servicer or any such person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Servicer, the Sub-Servicer and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement.

Except as provided in this Agreement, neither the Servicer nor the Sub-Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its duties to service the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer may undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the Basic Documents and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement and the Basic Documents and the interests of the Certificateholder under this Agreement and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

SECTION 7.05 JDCC Not to Resign as Servicer. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.03, JDCC shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it as Servicer under this Agreement except upon determination that the performance of its duties under this Agreement shall no longer be permissible under applicable law.

No such resignation shall become effective until the Indenture Trustee or a successor Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of JDCC in accordance with Section 8.02.

SECTION 7.06 Servicer to Act as Administrator. In the event of the resignation or removal of the Administrator and the failure of a successor Administrator to have been appointed and to have accepted such appointment as successor Administrator, the Servicer shall become the successor Administrator and shall be bound by the terms of the Administration Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

Default

SECTION 8.01 Servicer Default. If any one of the following events (a “Servicer Default”) shall occur and be continuing:

(a) any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or the Certificate Distribution Account any required payment or to direct the Indenture Trustee to make any required distributions therefrom that shall continue unremedied for a period of three Business Days after written notice of such failure is received by the Servicer from the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or after discovery of such failure by an officer of the Servicer; or

(b) failure on the part of the Servicer or the Seller, as the case may be, duly to observe or to perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of the Servicer or the Seller (as the case may be) set forth in this Agreement or any other Basic Document, which failure shall (i) materially and adversely affect the rights of Certificateholder or Noteholders and (ii) continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to the Servicer or the Seller (as the case may be) by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or (B) to the Servicer or the Seller (as the case may be), and to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or the Certificateholder (as defined in the Trust Agreement); or

(c) an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Servicer;

then, and in each and every case, so long as the Servicer Default shall not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee, or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, by notice then given in writing to the Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee if given by the Noteholders) may terminate all the rights and obligations (other than the obligations set forth in Section 7.02 hereof) of the Servicer under this Agreement. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificate or the Receivables or otherwise, shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee or such successor Servicer as may be appointed under Section 8.02; and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the predecessor Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivables and related documents, or otherwise. The predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for deposit, or shall thereafter be received by it with respect to a Receivable. All reasonable

costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Receivable Files to the successor Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. Upon receipt of notice of the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Owner Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Rating Agencies.

SECTION 8.02 Appointment of Successor.

(a) Upon the Servicer’s receipt of notice of termination, pursuant to Section 8.01 or the Servicer’s resignation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the predecessor Servicer shall continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement, in the case of termination, only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in a notice of termination, until receipt of such notice and, in the case of resignation, until the earlier of (x) the date 45 days from the delivery to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee of written notice of such resignation (or written confirmation of such notice) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (y) the date upon which the predecessor Servicer shall become unable to act as Servicer, as specified in the notice of resignation and accompanying Opinion of Counsel. In the event of the Servicer’s termination hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a successor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in form acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. In the event that a successor Servicer has not been appointed at the time when the predecessor Servicer has ceased to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section, pending the appointment of and acceptance by a successor Servicer, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed and serve as the successor Servicer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee; provided, however, the provisions of Section 7.01 shall not apply and the provisions of Section 4.07 shall not apply in the case of a breach by a predecessor Servicer. The Indenture Trustee may delegate any of its servicing obligations to an Affiliate or agent in accordance with Section 4.14. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action or failure to act on the part of the predecessor Servicer. Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture Trustee shall, if it shall be legally unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established institution, having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of equipment receivables, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement.

(b) Upon appointment, the successor Servicer (including the Indenture Trustee acting as successor Servicer) shall be the successor in all respects to the predecessor Servicer and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities arising thereafter relating thereto placed on the predecessor Servicer and shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all the rights granted to the predecessor Servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Subject to the Indenture Trustee’s right to appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to Section 8.02(a) after the Indenture Trustee has become the Servicer, the Servicer may not resign unless it is prohibited from serving as such by law.

SECTION 8.03 Notification to Noteholders and the Certificateholder. Upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to the Servicer pursuant to this Article VIII, the

Owner Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholder and the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Noteholders and the Rating Agencies.

SECTION 8.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, on behalf of all Noteholders (or the Holder (as defined in the Trust Agreement) of the Certificate, in the case of any default which does not adversely affect the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders) may, waive in writing any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from any of the Trust Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto.

ARTICLE IX

Termination

SECTION 9.01 Optional Purchase of All Receivables and Termination.

(a) On the last day of any Collection Period immediately preceding a Payment Date as of which the then outstanding Pool Balance is 10% or less of the Initial Pool Balance, the Servicer shall have the option to purchase the Owner Trust Estate, other than the Trust Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account; provided, however, that the Servicer may not effect any such purchase so long as the rating on Deere’s long-term debt obligations is less than Baa3 by Moody’s, unless the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such purchase would not constitute a fraudulent conveyance; provided further that each Rating Agency shall receive a copy of such Opinion of Counsel and shall have confirmed that the rating assigned to the Notes by such Rating Agency shall not be withdrawn or downgraded as a result of such purchase. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall deposit pursuant to Section 5.03 in the Collection Account an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables (including defaulted Receivables) and shall succeed to all interests in and to the Trust.

(b) Upon any sale of the assets of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Trust Agreement, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to deposit the proceeds from such sale after all payments and reserves therefrom have been made (the “Insolvency Proceeds”) in the Collection Account. On the Payment Date on which the Insolvency Proceeds are deposited in the Collection Account (or, if such proceeds are not so deposited on a Payment Date, on the Payment Date immediately following such deposit), the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to make the following deposits (after the application on such Payment Date of the Total Distribution Amount and funds on deposit in the Reserve Account pursuant to Sections 5.04 and 5.05) from the Insolvency Proceeds and any funds remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account (including the proceeds of any sale of investments therein as described in the following sentence):

(i) to the Note Distribution Account, any portion of the accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes not otherwise deposited into the Note Distribution Account on such Payment Date;

(ii) to the Note Distribution Account, the outstanding principal balance of the Notes (after giving effect to the reduction in the outstanding principal balance of the Notes to result from the deposits made in the Note Distribution Account on such Payment Date and on prior Payment Dates); and

(iii) to the Certificate Distribution Account, the Certificate Balance (after giving effect to the reduction in the Certificate Balance to result from the deposits made in the Certificate Distribution Account on such Payment Date).

Any investments on deposit in the Reserve Account and Note Distribution Account which will not mature on or before such Payment Date shall be sold by the Indenture Trustee at such time as will result in the Indenture Trustee receiving the proceeds from such sale not later than the Transfer Date preceding such Payment Date. Any Insolvency Proceeds remaining after the deposits described above shall be paid to the Seller.

(c) Notice of any termination of the Trust shall be given by the Servicer to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee as soon as practicable after the Servicer has received notice thereof.

(d) Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on, and the cancellation of all of, the Notes, the Certificateholder will succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder other than Section 5.06(b) and the Owner Trustee will succeed to the rights of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) This Agreement shall terminate upon the termination of the Trust.

ARTICLE X
