     (c) Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, Exhibit A-3, Exhibit A-4, Exhibit B, Exhibit C and Exhibit D, are part of the terms of this Indenture and are incorporated herein by reference.

     (d) The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP,” “CINS” and “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and the Indenture Trustee shall use CUSIP, CINS and ISIN numbers, as the case may be, in notices as a convenience to Noteholders and no representation shall be made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in a notice to Noteholders.

     Section 2.2 Execution, Authentication and Delivery. (a) The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by any of its Authorized Officers. The signature of any such Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or by facsimile.

     (b) Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of individuals who were at any time Authorized Officers of the Issuer shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of such Notes.

     (c) The Indenture Trustee shall, upon Issuer Order, authenticate and deliver the Notes for original issue in the Classes and initial aggregate principal amounts as set in the table below.

Class		Initial Aggregate Principal Amount
Class A-1 Notes		$	306,000,000
Class A-2 Notes		$	372,061,000
Class A-3 Notes		$	396,354,000

     Each Note authenticated and delivered by the Note Registrar to or upon Issuer Order on the Closing Date shall be dated as of the Closing Date. All other Notes that are authenticated after the Closing Date for any other purpose under this Indenture shall be dated the date of their authentication.

     (d) The Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes shall be issuable as Book-Entry Notes in minimum denominations of $1,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, except that one Class C Note may be issued in multiples of $1.

     (e) No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication

substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

     Section 2.3 Temporary Notes. (a) Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes, the Issuer may execute, and upon receipt of an Issuer Order the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such variations not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture as the officers executing such temporary Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such temporary Notes.

     (b) If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer shall cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, without charge to the Noteholder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Notes.

     Section 2.4 Tax Treatment. The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Notes shall be issued, with the intention that, for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Notes shall qualify as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Indenture Trust Estate. The Issuer, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (and each Note Owner by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat the Notes for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

     Section 2.5 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers of Notes. The Indenture Trustee initially shall be the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. Upon any resignation of any Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor or, if it elects not to make such an appointment, assume the duties of Note Registrar. If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed by the Issuer as Note Registrar, (i) the Issuer shall give the Indenture Trustee prompt written notice of the appointment of such Note Registrar and of the location, and any change in the location, of the Note Register, (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at all reasonable times and to obtain copies thereof, and (iii) the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of the Note Registrar by an Executive Officer thereof as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders and the principal amounts and number of such Notes.

     (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 3.2, if the requirements of Section 8-401(a) of the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and the Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount.

     (c) Subject to clause (i) below, at the option of the Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Class in any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, if the requirements of Section 8-401(a) of the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate, and the Noteholder shall obtain from the Indenture Trustee, the Notes which the Noteholder making such exchange is entitled to receive.

     (d) All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

     (e) Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be (i) duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Noteholder thereof or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar and (ii) accompanied by such other documents or evidence as the Indenture Trustee may require.

     (f) No service charge shall be made to a Noteholder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.3 or 9.6 not involving any transfer.

     (g) The preceding provisions of this Section 2.5 notwithstanding, the Issuer shall not be required to make and the Note Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption or of any Note for a period of fifteen (15) days preceding the Payment Date for any payment with respect to such Note.

     (h) No sale, pledge or other transfer of a Class D Note shall be made unless such sale, pledge or other transfer is (I)(A) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (B) for so long as the Class D Notes are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A to a Person the transferor reasonably believes after due inquiry is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A that purchases for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer to whom notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, or (C) pursuant to another available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and (II) in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States and any other relevant jurisdiction. The Depositor and the Indenture Trustee may

require an opinion of counsel to be delivered to it in connection with any transfer of the Class D Notes pursuant to clauses (I) (A) or (C) above.

     (i) The Class D Notes shall bear legends stating that they have not been registered under the Securities Act and are subject to the restrictions on transfer described in this Section 2.04. Each transferee of a Class D Note that is a Book-Entry Note, by acceptance of such Note, shall be deemed to have accepted such Note subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph and in the typewritten Note representing such Book-Entry Note delivered to the Clearing Agency. A Class D Note in the form of a Definitive Note may not be transferred, directly or indirectly, to any Person, other than the Initial Purchaser, unless (A) the transferee of the Class D Note certifies in an investment letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto, to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee that such Person is a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A) or (B) the transferee of the Class D Note delivers to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee an opinion of counsel that such transfer is permitted pursuant to clause (I)(A) or (C) of the immediately preceding paragraph. Any opinions of counsel required in connection with a transfer shall be by counsel reasonably acceptable to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee.

     (j) Each Person that acquires a Note shall be required to represent to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee, or in the case of a Note in book-entry form, will be deemed to represent by its acceptance of the Note, that (i) it is not, and is not acquiring the Note on behalf of or with “plan assets” (as determined under Department of Labor Regulation §2510.3-101 or otherwise) of a Plan, or any employee benefit plan subject to Similar Law, or (ii) its acquisition, holding and disposition of a Class A Note, Class B Note or Class C Note will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law. Any attempted or purported transfer of a Note with respect to which neither of the foregoing representations is true shall be void ab initio.

     (k) In order to preserve the exemption for resales and transfers provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act, the Issuer shall provide to any Holder of a Class D Note and any prospective purchaser designated by such Holder, upon request of such Holder or such prospective purchaser, such information required by Rule 144A as will enable the resale of such Class D Note to be made pursuant to Rule 144A. The Servicer, the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall cooperate with the Issuer in providing the Issuer such information regarding the Class D Notes, the Trust Property and other matters regarding the Issuer as the Issuer shall reasonably request to meet its obligations under the preceding sentence.

     Section 2.6 Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. (a) If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, as defined in Section 8-303 of the UCC, and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and upon Issuer Order the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Class; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen

Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven (7) days shall be due and payable, or shall have been called for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable or upon the Prepayment Date without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a protected purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

     (b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.6, the Issuer may require the payment by the Noteholder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee or Note Registrar and their counsel) connected therewith.

     (c) Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.6 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

     (d) The provisions of this Section 2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

     Section 2.7 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     Section 2.8 Payment of Principal and Interest; Defaulted Interest. (a) The Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes shall accrue interest at the Class A-1 Interest Rate, the Class A-2 Interest Rate, the Class A-3 Interest Rate, the Class A-4 Interest Rate, the Class B Interest Rate and the Class C Interest Rate, respectively, and such interest shall be payable on each Payment Date as specified therein, subject to Section 3.1 and Section 8.2. The Class D Notes shall not bear interest. Any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on

such Record Date; provided that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee at least ten Business Days prior to such Payment Date, and except for the final installment of principal payable with respect to such Note on a Payment Date, Prepayment Date or the applicable Final Scheduled Payment Date, which shall be payable as provided below.

No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Order that they be destroyed or returned to it and so long as such Issuer Order is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Indenture Trustee.

Subject to Section 11.1 and the terms of the Basic Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall release property from the lien of this Indenture only upon receipt of an Issuer Order accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and Independent Certificates in accordance with TIA Sections 314(c) and 314(d)(1) or an Opinion of Counsel in lieu of such Independent Certificates to the effect that the TIA does not require any such Independent Certificates. If the Commission shall issue an exemptive order under TIA

The Notes, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Book-Entry Notes shall be registered initially on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Note Owner thereof shall receive a Definitive Note (as defined below) representing such Note Owner’s interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 2.13. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (the “Definitive Notes”) have been issued to such Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13:

     (i) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall be in full force and effect;

     (ii) the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole Noteholder, and shall have no obligation to the Note Owners;

     (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.11 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall control;

     (iv) the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants pursuant to the Note Depositary Agreement. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13, the initial Clearing Agency shall make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants; and

     (v) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Noteholders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding (or any Class thereof) the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest of the Notes Outstanding (or Class thereof) and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.

     Section 2.12 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Noteholders of Book-Entry Notes is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to the Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.13, the Indenture Trustee

shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Noteholders of Book-Entry Notes to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligation to such Note Owners.

     Section 2.13 Definitive Notes. With respect to any Class or Classes of Book-Entry Notes, if (i) the Depositor advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to such Class of Book-Entry Notes and the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Depositor, at its sole option, advises the Indenture Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an Event of Servicing Termination, Note Owners of such Class of Book- Entry Notes evidencing beneficial interests aggregating not less than a majority of the principal amount of such Class advise the Indenture Trustee and the Clearing Agency in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of such Class of Note Owners, then the Clearing Agency shall notify all Note Owners of such Class and the Indenture Trustee of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to the Note Owners of the applicable Class requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Indenture Trustee of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency. None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes to Note Owners, the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the holders of such Definitive Notes as Noteholders.

     Section 2.14 Authenticating Agents. (a) The Indenture Trustee, at the request of the Issuer, may appoint one or more Persons (each, an “Authenticating Agent”) with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.2, 2.3, 2.5, 2.6 and 9.6, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by those Sections to authenticate such Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes “by the Indenture Trustee.” The Indenture Trustee shall be the Authenticating Agent in the absence of any appointment thereof.

     (b) Any corporation into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation.

     (c) Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a

termination, the Indenture Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of any such appointment to the Issuer.

     (d) The provisions of Sections 2.9 and 6.4 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.

     Section 3.4 Existence. The Issuer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuer hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other State or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the Collateral and each other instrument or agreement included in the Indenture Trust Estate.

REMEDIES

     Section 5.1 Events of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means the occurrence and continuation of any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

     (i) default in the payment of any interest on any Note of the Controlling Class when the same becomes due and payable on a Payment Date, and such default shall continue for a period of thirty-five (35) days or more; or

     (ii) default in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable; or

     (iii) default in the observance or performance in any material respect of any material covenant or agreement of the Issuer made in this Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement, a default in the observance or performance of which is elsewhere in this Section 5.1 specifically dealt with) that materially and adversely affects the Noteholders and such default shall continue for a period of ninety (90) days, after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Controlling Class, a written notice specifying such default and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

     (iv) any representation or warranty of the Issuer made in this Indenture proves to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall have been made, which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders and such default shall continue or not be cured, or the circumstance or condition in respect of which such misrepresentation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated or

otherwise cured, for a period of ninety (90) days, after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Controlling Class, a written notice specifying such default and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or

     (v) the filing of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of the Issuer or any substantial part of the Indenture Trust Estate in an involuntary case under any applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or for any substantial part of the Indenture Trust Estate, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the Issuer’s affairs, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; or

     (vi) the commencement by the Issuer of a voluntary case under any applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or the consent by the Issuer to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or the consent by the Issuer to the appointment or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Issuer or for any substantial part of the Indenture Trust Estate, or the making by the Issuer of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure by the Issuer generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of any action by the Issuer in furtherance of any of the foregoing;

provided, however, that a delay in or failure of performance referred to under clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above for a period of 150 days will not constitute an Event of Default if that delay or failure was caused by force majeure or other similar occurrence.

     Section 5.2 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case, the Indenture Trustee may, or the Indenture Trustee as directed in writing by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, shall, declare all the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Issuer, and upon any such declaration the Outstanding Amount of such Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2(a), if an Event of Default specified in clauses (v) or (vi) of Section 5.1, the Notes shall become automatically due and payable at par, together with accrued interest thereon.

     (b) At any time after a declaration of acceleration of maturity has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the amount due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article V, the holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

     (i) the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all payments of principal of and interest on all Notes and all other amounts that would then be due hereunder or upon such Notes if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred; and

     (ii) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

     No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto.

     (c) If the Notes have been declared due and payable or have automatically become due and payable following an Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee may institute proceedings to collect amounts due, exercise remedies as a secured party (including foreclosure or sale of the Collateral) or elect to maintain the Collateral and continue to apply the proceeds from the Collateral as if there had been no declaration of acceleration. Any sale of the Collateral by the Indenture Trustee will be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5.4.

     Section 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee. (a) The Issuer covenants that if (i) there is an Event of Default relating to the nonpayment of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such Event of Default continues for a period of thirty-five (35) Business Days, or (ii) there is an Event of Default relating to the nonpayment in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable, the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent payment at such rate of interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest at the applicable Note Interest Rate borne by the Notes and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents, attorneys and counsel.

     (b) In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor upon such Notes, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

     (c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.4, in its discretion or shall at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders, by such appropriate Proceedings as the Indenture Trustee or the Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Holders of at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes shall reasonably deem most effective to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in

this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

     (c) In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Indenture Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

     (i) to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and liabilities incurred by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

     (ii) unless prohibited by applicable law or regulations, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings;

     (iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to pay all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf; and

     (iv) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property; and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith.

     (e) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Noteholder or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

     (f) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or Proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Noteholders.

     (g) In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

     Section 5.4 Remedies; Priorities. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee may do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.5 and 6.2(f)):

     (i) institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

     (ii) institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Indenture Trust Estate;

     (iii) exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders; and

     (iv) sell the Indenture Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law; provided, however, the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Indenture Trust Estate following an Event of Default unless:

     (A) the holders of Notes evidencing 100% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class consent thereto; or

     (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation are sufficient to pay in full the principal of and the accrued interest on the Outstanding Notes at the date of such sale; or

     (C) with respect to an Event of Default set forth in Section 5.1(i) or (ii), the Indenture Trustee determines that the Indenture Trust Estate will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of holders of Notes evidencing not less than two thirds of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Event of Default is pursuant to clause (iii) or (iv) of Section 5.1, the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Indenture Trust Estate unless the Holders of all Outstanding Notes consent to such sale or the proceeds of such sale are sufficient to pay in full the principal of and accrued interest on the Outstanding Notes.

     In determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clauses (B) and (C) above, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Indenture Trust Estate for such purpose.

     (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.2 of this Agreement or Section 4.5 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, if the Indenture Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to liquidations of the Indenture Trust Estate in accordance with this Article V, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order of priority:

     (i) first, to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Paying Agent and the Note Registrar for amounts due under Section 6.7, and then to the Servicer for the amounts due under Section 8.2(c)(i) (if Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company is not the Servicer);

     (ii) second, to the Owner Trustee for the amounts due under Section 8.2(c)(ii);

     (iii) third, to the Holders of the Class A Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class A Notes in respect of interest (including any premium), ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A Notes in respect of interest (including any premium);

     (iv) fourth, to Holders of the Class A-1 Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class A-1 Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A-1 Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class A-1 Notes is reduced to zero;

     (v) fifth, to the Holders of the Class A-2 Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class A-2 Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A-2 Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class A-2 Notes is reduced to zero;

     (vi) sixth, to the Holders of the Class A-3 Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class A-3 Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A-3 Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class A-3 Notes is reduced to zero;

     (vii) seventh, to the Holders of the Class A-4 Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class A-4 Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class A-4 Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class A-4 Notes is reduced to zero;

     (viii) eighth, to the Holders of the Class B Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class B Notes in respect of interest (including any premium), ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class B Notes in respect of interest (including any premium);

     (ix) ninth, to the Holders of the Class B Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class B Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class B Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class B Notes is reduced to zero;

     (x) tenth, to the Holders of the Class C Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class C Notes in respect of interest (including any premium), ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class C Notes in respect of interest (including any premium);

     (xi) eleventh, to the Holders of the Class C Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class C Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class C Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class C Notes is reduced to zero;

     (xii) twelfth, to Holders of the Class D Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Class D Notes in respect of principal, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Class D Notes in respect of principal, until the Outstanding Amount of the Class D Notes is reduced to zero;

     (xiii) thirteenth, to the Servicer (if Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company is the Servicer) the amounts due under Section 8.2(c)(x) or (xii), as the case may be;

     (xiv) fourteenth, any amounts remaining after making the payments described in clauses (i) through (xiii) above, to be applied pursuant to Section 8.2(c) to the extent that any amounts payable thereunder have not been previously paid pursuant to clauses (i) through (xiii) above.

     The Indenture Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.4. At least fifteen (15) days before such record date, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.

     Section 5.5 Optional Preservation of the Receivables. If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.2 following an Event of Default, and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Indenture Trust Estate and apply proceeds pursuant to Section 8.2(c) as if there had been no declaration of acceleration. It is the desire of the parties hereto and

the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to maintain possession of the Indenture Trust Estate. In determining whether to maintain possession of the Indenture Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Indenture Trust Estate for such purpose.

     Section 5.6 Limitation of Suits. (a) No Noteholder shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

     (i) such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

     (ii) the holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

     (iii) such Noteholder or Noteholders have offered to the Indenture Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

     (iv) the Indenture Trustee for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such Proceedings; and

     (v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such sixty-day period by the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class.

     No Noteholder or group of Noteholders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Noteholders or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.

     In the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders, each evidencing less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, the Indenture Trustee shall act at the direction of the group of Noteholders representing the greater percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class. If the Indenture Trustee receives conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Noteholders representing an equal percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class, the Indenture Trustee in its sole discretion may determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

     (b) No Noteholder shall have any right to vote except as provided pursuant to this Indenture and the other Basic Documents, nor any right in any manner to otherwise control the operation and management of the Issuer. However, in connection with any action as to which Noteholders are entitled to vote or consent under this Indenture and the Notes, the Issuer may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Noteholders entitled to vote or consent in accordance with TIA Section 316(c).

     Section 5.7 Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, any Noteholder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on its Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture (or, in the case of prepayment pursuant to Article X, on or after the Prepayment Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder.

     Section 5.8 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

     Section 5.9 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

     Section 5.10 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

     Section 5.11 Control by Controlling Class. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Indenture, for so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

     (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

     (b) the Indenture Trustee shall not sell or liquidate the Indenture Trust Estate except pursuant to the express terms of Section 5.4(a); and

     (c) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.

     Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section 5.11, subject to Section 6.1, the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines might expose it to personal liability or might materially adversely affect the rights of any Noteholders not consenting to such action.

     Section 5.12 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.2, the holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class may waive any past Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default and its consequences except an Unmatured Event of Default (a) in the payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that cannot be amended, supplemented or modified without the consent of each Noteholder. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Unmatured Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

     Upon any such waiver, such Unmatured Event of Default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

     Section 5.13 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Noteholder by such Noteholder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes (or in the case of a right or remedy under this Indenture which is instituted by the Controlling Class, more than 10% of the Controlling Class) or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture (or, in the case of a prepayment, on or after the Prepayment Date).

     Section 5.14 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture, and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

     Section 5.15 Action on Notes. The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Indenture Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee shall be applied in accordance with this Indenture.

     Section 5.16 Performance and Enforcement of Certain Obligations. (a) Promptly following a request from the Indenture Trustee to do so, the Issuer shall take all such lawful action as the Indenture Trustee may request to compel or secure the performance and observance by each of the Seller, the Servicer and the Receivables Servicers, as applicable, of its obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with any Basic Document and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully available to the Issuer under or in connection with the Basic Documents to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indenture Trustee, including the transmission of notices of default on the part of the Seller or the Servicer thereunder and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by each of the Seller, the Servicer and the Receivables Servicers of its obligations to the Issuer under or in connection with any Basic Document.

     (b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall, exercise all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of the Issuer against the Seller, the Servicer or the Receivables Servicers under or in connection with any Basic Document, including the right or power to take any action to compel or secure performance or observance by each of the Seller, the Servicer or the Receivables Servicers, as the case may be, of its obligations to the Issuer thereunder and to give any consent, request, notice, direction, approval, extension, or waiver under the Basic Documents and any right of the Issuer to take such action shall be suspended.

ARTICLE VI

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

     Section 6.1 Duties of Indenture Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this

     Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs.

     (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

     (i) the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and

     (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

     (c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

     (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 6.1;

     (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trustee Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

     (e) Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     (f) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

     (g) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1 and to the provisions of the TIA.

     (h) The Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless either (1) a Trustee Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have actual knowledge

of such Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Event of Default shall have been given to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

     Section 6.2 Rights of Indenture Trustee. (a) The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Indenture Trustee need not investigate any fact or matters stated in any such document.

     (b) Before the Indenture Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel from the appropriate party. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel from the appropriate party.

     (c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed by the Indenture Trustee with due care.

     (d) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that such action or omission by the Indenture Trustee does not constitute willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

     (e) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

     (f) The Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto or to honor the request or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements, advances and liabilities which might be incurred by it, its agents and its counsel in compliance with such request or direction.

     (g) The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the powers granted hereunder.

     Section 6.3 Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee. Subject to compliance with the requirements of subsection (a)(4)(i) of Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act, the Indenture

Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee. Any Note Paying Agent, Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent hereunder may do the same with like rights.

     Section 6.4 Indenture Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Indenture Trustee (i) shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation as to, the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes and (ii) shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, or responsible for any statement of the Issuer in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication.

     Section 6.5 Notice of Defaults. If an Unmatured Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is actually known to a Trustee Officer of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall mail to each Noteholder notice of such Unmatured Event of Default within ninety (90) days after it occurs. Except in the case of an Unmatured Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note (including payments pursuant to the mandatory redemption provisions of such Note), the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trustee Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Noteholders.

     Section 6.6 Reports by Indenture Trustee to Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall deliver to each Noteholder, not later than the latest date permitted by law, such information as may be required to enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

     Section 6.7 Compensation and Indemnity. (a) The Issuer shall cause the payment to be made to the Indenture Trustee from time to time compensation for its services to the extent of and in the priority set forth in Section 8.2(c) and as described in the Indenture Trustee Fee Letter. The Indenture Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer shall cause reimbursement to be made to the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services, out of the Issuer to the extent of and in accordance with the priority in Section 8.2(c). Such expenses shall include the reasonable out-of-pocket compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Issuer shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee and its officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all loss, claim, suit, damage, judgment, action, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder in accordance with the priority in Section 8.2. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder if no material prejudice to the Issuer shall have resulted from such failure and, in such event, only to the extent of such prejudice. The Issuer shall not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.

     (b) The Issuer’s payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. When the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Unmatured Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(iv) or (v) with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

     Section 6.8 Replacement of Indenture Trustee. (a) No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee, and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee, shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8 and payment in full of all sums due to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7. The holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority in principal amount of the Controlling Class may remove the Indenture Trustee without cause by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee if:

     (i) the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11;

     (ii) an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Indenture Trustee;

     (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or its property;

     (iv) the Indenture Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting; or

     (v) the Indenture Trustee breaches any representation, warranty or covenant made by it under any Basic Document.

     The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ written notice to the Issuer. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Indenture Trustee for any reason (the Indenture Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee.

     (b) Any successor Indenture Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee and to the Issuer. Thereupon, if all sums due the retiring Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 have been paid in full, the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective, the successor Indenture Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture and the resigning Indenture Trustee shall be relieved of all of its obligations hereunder. The successor Indenture Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders. If all sums due the retiring Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 have been paid in full, the retiring Indenture Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee to the successor Indenture Trustee.

     (c) If a successor Indenture Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) days after the retiring Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority in the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a

successor Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with Section 6.11, any Noteholder who has been a bona fide Noteholder for at least six (6) months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

     (d) Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.8, the obligations of the Issuer under Section 6.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee.

     Section 6.9 Successor Indenture Trustee by Merger. (a) If the Indenture Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee; provided that such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.11.

     (b) In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is provided anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

     Section 6.10 Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Indenture Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver an instrument to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Issuer, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Indenture Secured Parties, such title to the Indenture Trust Estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.11 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 6.8.

     (b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

     (i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee shall not be authorized to act separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any

jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Indenture Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;

     (ii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

     (iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

     (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article VI. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

     (d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

     Section 6.11 Eligibility; Disqualification. (a) The Indenture Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of subsection (a)(4)(i) of Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act and TIA Section 310(a). The Indenture Trustee or its parent shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition and shall have a long-term debt rating of investment grade by each of the Rating Agencies or shall otherwise be acceptable to each of the Rating Agencies. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b).

     (b) Within ninety (90) days after ascertaining the occurrence of an Event of Default which shall not have been cured or waived, unless authorized by the Commission, the Indenture Trustee shall resign with respect to the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and/or the Class D Notes in accordance with Section 6.8 of this Indenture, and the Issuer shall appoint a successor Indenture Trustee for each of such Classes, as applicable, so that there will be separate Indenture Trustees for the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and the Class D Notes. In the event the Indenture Trustee fails to comply with the terms of the

preceding sentence, the Indenture Trustee shall comply with clauses (ii) and (iii) of TIA Section 310(b).

     (c) In the case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Indenture Trustee with respect to any Class of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.11, the Issuer, the retiring Indenture Trustee and the successor Indenture Trustee with respect to such Class of Notes shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Indenture Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, the successor Indenture Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes of the Class to which the appointment of such successor Indenture Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Indenture Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Classes of Notes, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes of each Class as to which the retiring Indenture Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the Indenture Trustee and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Indenture Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Indenture Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Indenture Trustee shall be a trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Indenture Trustee; and upon the removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided herein.

     Section 6.12 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Issuer. The Indenture Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). An Indenture Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated.

     Section 6.13 Waiver of Setoffs. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives any and all rights of setoff that the Indenture Trustee may otherwise at any time have under applicable law with respect to any Trust Account and agrees that amounts in the Trust Accounts shall at all times be held and applied solely in accordance with the provisions hereof and of the other Basic Documents.

     Section 6.14 Representations and Warranties. The Indenture Trustee hereby makes the following representations and warranties on which the Issuer and the Noteholders shall rely:

     (b) Subject to Section 6.1(c), the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in any of the Trust Accounts resulting from any loss on any Permitted Investment included therein, except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Permitted Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in accordance with their terms.

     (c) If (i) the Servicer shall have failed to give investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Collection Account to the Indenture Trustee or (ii) to the actual knowledge of a Trustee Officer of the Indenture Trustee, a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been declared due and

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note, or in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, acknowledges that the Ford Credit Servicing Agreement will terminate on January 28, 2012. After January 28, 2012 with respect to the Ford Credit Receivables, the Noteholders will not have any right, title and interest in, to and under, any future claims, demands, causes of action and chooses in action in respect of such Receivables.

     (c) Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, acknowledges that from time to time the Indenture Trustee shall release the lien of this Indenture on any Receivable to be repurchased or purchased pursuant to Section 2.3 or Section 3.6, respectively, of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

The Indenture Trustee shall receive at least seven (7) days’ notice when requested by the Issuer to take any action pursuant to Section 8.4(a), accompanied by copies of any instruments involved, and the Indenture Trustee shall also require, except in connection with any action contemplated by Section 8.4(c), as a condition to such action, an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, stating the legal effect of any such action, outlining the steps required to complete the same, and concluding that all conditions precedent to the taking of such action have been complied with and such action will not materially and adversely impair the security for the Notes or the rights

of the Noteholders in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that such Opinion of Counsel shall not be required to express an opinion as to the fair value of the Indenture Trust Estate. Counsel rendering any such opinion may rely, without independent investigation, on the accuracy and validity of any certificate or other instrument delivered to the Indenture Trustee in connection with any such action.

     (d) Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuer’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of

the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI.

     Section 11.3 Acts of Noteholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.3.

     (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.

     (c) The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register.

     (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the Noteholder of any Notes shall bind the Noteholder of every Note issued upon the registration thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

     Section 11.4 Notices, etc., to Indenture Trustee, Issuer and Rating Agencies. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

     (i) the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder, the Servicer or the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office; or

     (ii) the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: GS Auto Loan Trust 2005-1, in care of Wilmington Trust Company, as Owner Trustee, Rodney Square North, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware ###-###-####, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, with a copy to the Servicer at 85 Broad Street, New York, New York 10004, Attention: Jonathan Coblentz, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the

Indenture Trustee by the Issuer. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

     Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, personally delivered, telecopied or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, to (i) in the case of Moody’s, at the following address: Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., ABS Monitoring Department, 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007, (ii) in the case of Fitch, at the following address: Fitch, Inc., One State Street Plaza, New York, New York 10004, Attention: Structured Finance, and (iii) in the case of Dominion, at the following address: Dominion Bond Rating Service, Inc., 55 Broadway, New York, New York 10006, Attention: Structured Finance.

     Section 11.5 Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.

     (a) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at his address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.

     (b) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

     (c) In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

     (d) Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Unmatured Default or Event of Default.

     Section 11.6 Alternate Payment and Notice Provisions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Indenture or any of the Notes to the contrary, the Issuer may enter into any agreement, subject to the Indenture Trustee’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), with any Noteholder providing for a method of payment, or notice by the Indenture Trustee or any Note Paying Agent to such Noteholder, that is different from the methods provided for in this Indenture for such payments or notices. The Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee a

copy of each such agreement and the Indenture Trustee shall cause payments to be made and notices to be given in accordance with such agreements.

     Section 11.7 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required or deemed provision shall control.

     The provisions of TIA Sections 310 through 317 that impose duties on any Person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture, whether or not physically contained herein.

     Section 11.8 Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

     Section 11.9 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

     Section 11.10 Separability. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

     Section 11.11 Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder, and the Indenture Secured Parties, and any other party secured hereunder, and any other Person with an ownership interest in any part of the Indenture Trust Estate, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

     Section 11.12 Legal Holidays. In any case where the date on which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

     Section 11.13 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THAT WOULD APPLY THE LAW OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

     (b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally.

     (i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Indenture or any documents executed and delivered in connection herewith, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the nonexclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York and appellate courts from any thereof;

     (ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

     (iii) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Person at its address determined in accordance with Section 9.4; and

     (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction.

     (c) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE OTHER BASIC DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY.

     Section 11.14 Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

     Section 11.15 Recording of Indenture. If this Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

     Section 11.16 Trust Obligation. No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in their individual capacities, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, (iii) the Servicer, the Depositor or the Seller or (iv) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of any Person described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations in their individual capacities), and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be, in the case of the Issuer, Servicer, Depositor or the Seller fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the

performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Article VI and VII of the Trust Agreement.

     Section 11.17 No Petition. The Indenture Trustee, by entering into this Indenture, and each Noteholder or Note Owner, by accepting a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, hereby covenant and agree that prior to the end of the period that is one year and one day after there has been paid in full all debt issued by any securitization vehicle in respect of which the Depositor holds any interest, they will not institute against the Issuer, or join in, or assist or encourage others to institute any institution against the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any of the other Basic Documents.

     Section 11.18 Subordination Agreement. Each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that, to the extent it is deemed to have any interest in any assets of the Depositor, or a securitization vehicle (other than the Issuer) related to the Depositor, dedicated to other debt obligations of the Depositor or debt obligations of any other securitization vehicle (other than the Issuer) related to the Depositor, its interest in those assets is subordinate to claims or rights of such other debtholders to those other assets. Furthermore, each Noteholder, by accepting a Note, hereby covenants and agrees that such agreement constitutes a subordination agreement for purposes of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

     Section 11.19 No Recourse. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, all of the obligations of the Issuer under or in connection with the Notes and this Indenture are nonrecourse obligations of the Issuer payable solely from the Collateral and following realization of the Collateral and its reduction to zero, any claims of the Noteholders and the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.19 shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Collateral for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by this Indenture (to the extent it relates to the obligation to make payments on the Notes) until such Collateral has been realized and reduced to zero, whereupon any outstanding indebtedness or obligation in respect of the Notes shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.19 shall not limit the right of any Person to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any Proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Person or entity.

     Section 11.20 Limitation of Liability of Owner Trustee. It is expressly understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that (i) this Indenture is executed and delivered by Wilmington Trust Company, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee of the Issuer in the exercise of the power and authority conferred and vested in it as such Owner Trustee, (ii) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements made herein by the Issuer are not personal representations, undertakings and agreements of Wilmington Trust Company, but are binding only on the Issuer, (iii) nothing contained herein shall be construed as creating

any liability on Wilmington Trust Company, individually or personally, to perform any covenant of the Issuer, either expressed or implied, contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any person claiming by, through or under any such party, and (iv) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expense of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under this Indenture.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its Class A-1 3.8484 Asset Backed Notes (the “Class A-1 Notes”) which, together with the Issuer’s other Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and Class D Notes (collectively, the “Notes”), are issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

     Subject to the subordination provisions of the Indenture, the Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes, are and will be equally and ratably secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.

     Principal of the Class A-1 Notes will be payable on each Payment Date in an amount described on the face hereof. “Payment Date” means the 15^th day of each month, or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, commencing September 15, 2005.

     As described on the face hereof, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the Class A-1 Final Scheduled Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Controlling Class have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.2 of the Indenture. All principal payments on the Class A-1 Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders entitled thereto.

     Payments of interest on this Note on each Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full payment of this Note, shall be made to the Person whose name appears as the Registered Noteholder of the Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date either by wire transfer in immediately available funds, to the account of such Noteholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Noteholder shall have provided to the Note Registrar appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to such Payment Date and such Noteholder’s Notes in the aggregate evidence a denomination of not less than $1,000,000, or, if not, by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date; provided that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued to Note Owners, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. Such payments will be made without requiring that this Note be submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee, in the name of and on behalf

of the Issuer, will notify the Person who was the Registered Noteholder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at the Indenture Trustee’s principal Corporate Trust Office or at the office of the Indenture Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes located in The City of New York.

     As provided in the Indenture, the Notes may be prepaid, in whole but not in part, in the manner and to the extent described in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, and thereupon one or more new Notes of the same Class in authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner will not at any time institute against the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.

     The Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Note is issued with the intention that, for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify as

indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Indenture Trust Estate. Each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (and each Note Owner by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), will be deemed to agree to treat the Notes for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of this Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in this Note, shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not (and throughout the period it holds such Note will not be) and is not acting on behalf of (and throughout the period it holds such Note will not be acting on behalf of) (i) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) an entity deemed to hold the plan assets of any of the foregoing or (iv) another employee benefit plan subject to a law that is similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) the acquisition, holding and disposition of this Note (or beneficial interest herein) will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any similar applicable law.

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes thereunder at any time by the Issuer with the consent of the Holders of the Notes representing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of all Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Noteholders of Notes evidencing specified percentages of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding or of the Controlling Class, as applicable, on behalf of all Noteholders, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

     The term “Issuer,” as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

     The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

     The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

No service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner will not at any time institute against the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or State bankruptcy or

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

     The term “Issuer,” as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

     The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

     This Note and the Indenture shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflicts of law provisions.

     No reference herein to the Indenture, and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity, Owner Trustee, in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal or of interest on this Note or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note, by such holder’s acceptance hereof, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Noteholder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of this Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in this Note, shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not (and throughout the period it holds such Note will not be) and is not acting on behalf of (and throughout the period it holds such Note will not be acting on behalf of) (i) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) an entity deemed to hold the plan assets of any of the foregoing or (iv) another employee benefit plan subject to a law that is similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) the acquisition, holding and disposition of this Note (or beneficial interest herein) will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any similar applicable law.

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Noteholders of Notes evidencing specified percentages of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding or of the Controlling Class, as applicable, on behalf of all Noteholders, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

     The term “Issuer,” as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

     The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

     No reference herein to the Indenture, and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity, Owner Trustee, in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal or of interest on this Note or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note, by such holder’s acceptance hereof, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Noteholder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its Class A-4 4.56% Asset Backed Notes (the “Class A-4 Notes”) which, together with the Issuer’s other Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes and Class D Notes (collectively, the “Notes”), are issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

     Subject to the subordination provisions of the Indenture, the Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes, are and will be equally and ratably secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.

     Principal of the Class A-4 Notes will be payable on each Payment Date in an amount described on the face hereof. “Payment Date” means the 15^th day of each month, or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, commencing September 15, 2005.

     As described on the face hereof, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the Class A-4 Final Scheduled Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Controlling Class have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.2 of the Indenture. All principal payments on the Class A-4 Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders entitled thereto.

     Payments of interest on this Note on each Payment Date, together with the installment of principal, if any, to the extent not in full payment of this Note, shall be made to the Person whose name appears as the Registered Noteholder of the Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date either by wire transfer in immediately available funds, to the account of such Noteholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Noteholder shall have provided to the Note Registrar appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to such Payment Date and such Noteholder’s Notes in the aggregate evidence a denomination of not less than $1,000,000, or, if not, by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date; provided that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued to Note Owners, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. Such payments will be made without requiring that this Note be submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee, in the name of and on behalf

of the Issuer, will notify the Person who was the Registered Noteholder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at the Indenture Trustee’s principal Corporate Trust Office or at the office of the Indenture Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes located in The City of New York.

     The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the Class A-4 Interest Rate to the extent lawful.

     As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, and thereupon one or more new Notes of the same Class in authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity.

Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

Each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (and each Note Owner by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), will be deemed to agree to treat the Notes for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of this Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in this Note, shall be deemed to represent and warrant that either (a) it is not (and throughout the period it holds such Note will not be) and is not acting on behalf of (and throughout the period it holds such Note will not be acting on behalf of) (i) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Code, (iii) an entity deemed to hold the plan assets of any of the foregoing or (iv) another employee benefit plan subject to a law that is similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (b) the acquisition, holding and disposition of this Note (or beneficial interest herein) will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any similar applicable law.

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes thereunder at any time by the Issuer with the consent of the Holders of the Notes representing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of all Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Noteholders of Notes evidencing specified percentages of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding or of the Controlling Class, as applicable, on behalf of all Noteholders, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

     The term “Issuer,” as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

     The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity, Owner Trustee, in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal or of interest on this Note or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note, by such holder’s acceptance hereof, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Noteholder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

Such payments will be made without requiring that this Note be submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its Class D Zero Coupon Asset Backed Notes (the “Class D Notes”) which, together with the Issuer’s Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes (collectively, the “Notes”), are issued under the Indenture, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights and obligations thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders. The Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

     Subject to the subordination provisions of the Indenture, the Class A Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes, are and will be equally and ratably secured by the collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the Indenture.

     Principal of the Class D Notes will be payable on each Payment Date in an amount described on the face hereof. “Payment Date” means the 15^th day of each month, or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, commencing September 15, 2005.

     As described on the face hereof, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the earlier of the Class D Final Scheduled Payment Date and the Prepayment Date, if any, pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall be due and payable on the date on which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of the Controlling Class have declared the Notes to be immediately due and payable in the manner provided in Section 5.2 of the Indenture. All principal payments on the Class D Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders entitled thereto.

     This Note shall not bear interest. Payments of each installment of principal on this Note on each Payment Date, if any, to the extent not in full payment of this Note, shall be made to the Person whose name appears as the Registered Noteholder of the Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) on the Note Register as of the close of business on each Record Date either by wire transfer in immediately available funds, to the account of such Noteholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Noteholder shall have provided to the Note Registrar appropriate written instructions at least five Business Days prior to such Payment Date and such Noteholder’s Notes in the aggregate evidence a denomination of not less than $1,000,000, or, if not, by check mailed first-class postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date; provided that, unless Definitive Notes have been issued to Note Owners, with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. Such payments will be made without requiring that this Note be submitted for notation of payment. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) effected by any payments made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted hereon. If funds are expected to be available, as provided in the Indenture, for payment in full of the then remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note on a Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee, in the name of and on behalf

of the Issuer, will notify the Person who was the Registered Noteholder hereof as of the Record Date preceding such Payment Date by notice mailed or transmitted by facsimile prior to such Payment Date, and the amount then due and payable shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of this Note at the Indenture Trustee’s principal Corporate Trust Office or at the office of the Indenture Trustee’s agent appointed for such purposes located in The City of New York.

     As provided in the Indenture, the Notes may be prepaid, in whole but not in part, in the manner and to the extent described in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     The transfer of this Note is subject to the restrictions on transfer specified on the face hereof and to the other limitations set forth in the Indenture. Subject to the satisfaction of such restrictions and limitations, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Noteholder hereof or such Noteholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, and thereupon one or more new Notes of the same Class in authorized denominations and in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by its acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee on the Notes or under the Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or employee of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, each in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity.

     Each Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner will not at any time institute against the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any United States federal or State bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the Indenture or the other Basic Documents.

     The Issuer has entered into the Indenture and this Note is issued with the intention that, for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Notes will qualify as indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Indenture Trust Estate. Each Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (and each Note Owner by its acceptance of a beneficial interest in a Note), will be deemed to agree to treat the Notes for federal, State and local income and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Issuer.

     Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note (as of the day of determination or as of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes thereunder at any time by the Issuer with the consent of the Holders of the Notes representing a majority of the Outstanding Amount of all Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Noteholders of Notes evidencing specified percentages of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding or of the Controlling Class, as applicable, on behalf of all Noteholders, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Noteholder of this Note (or any one or more Predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Indenture Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

     The term “Issuer,” as used in this Note, includes any successor to the Issuer under the Indenture.

     The Issuer is permitted by the Indenture, under certain circumstances, to merge or consolidate, subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders under the Indenture.

     The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as provided in the Indenture, subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

     This Note and the Indenture shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflicts of law provisions.

     No reference herein to the Indenture, and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, none of Indenture Trustee, in its individual capacity, Owner Trustee, in its individual capacity, any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, or any of their respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees or successors or assigns shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal or of interest on this Note or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in the Indenture. The holder of this Note, by such holder’s acceptance hereof, agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, in the case of an Event of Default under the Indenture, the Noteholder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Issuer for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or in this Note.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     In connection with our proposed purchase of $______aggregate principal amount of Class D Notes (the “Securities”) of GS Auto Loan Trust 2005-1 (the “Issuer”), we confirm that:

     1. We understand that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We, understand and agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, (x) that such, Securities are being offered only in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and (y) that such Securities may be resold, pledged or transferred only (i) to Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “Seller”) or (ii) to a person or entity that the transferor of the Securities reasonably believes, after due inquiry is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”), as such term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”), acting for its own account (and not for the account of others) or as a fiduciary or agent for others (which others also are QIBs) and in reliance on, and to whom notice is given that the sale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on, Rule 144A. We will notify any purchaser of the Securities from us of the above resale restrictions if then applicable. We further understand that in connection with any transfer of the Securities by us that the Seller and the Indenture Trustee may request, and if so requested we will furnish, such certificates and other information as they may reasonably require to confirm that any such transfer complies with the foregoing restrictions. We understand that no sale, pledge or other transfer may be made to any one person or entity of Securities with a face amount of less than $1,000 and, in the case of any person or entity acting on behalf of one or more third parties (other than a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) acting in its fiduciary capacity), of Securities with a face amount of less than $1,000 for each such third party.

     2. We are a QIB and are acquiring the Securities for our own account (and not for the account of others) or as a fiduciary or agent for others (which others also are QIBs). We are familiar with Rule 144A and are aware that the seller of the Securities and other parties intend to rely on the statements made herein and the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A. In this regard, we have received (a) a copy of the Prospectus, dated August 9, 2005, the Prospectus Supplement, dated August 12, 2005 and the Private Placement Memorandum, dated August 19, 2005, relating to the Securities and (b) such

other written information, if any, as we have requested concerning the Indenture, the Securities, the Issuer and the trustees. We have reviewed and understand the material to which reference is made in this paragraph 2, and understand that risks are involved in an investment in the Securities. We represent that in making our investment decision to acquire the Securities, we have not relied on representations, warranties, opinions, projections, financial or other information or analyses, if any, supplied to us by any person, including the Issuer, the Seller, the trustees or any of their respective affiliates except as expressly contained in the Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and the Private Placement Memorandum and in the other written information, if any, provided pursuant to our request.

     3. We (a) are not (i) an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) whether or not subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, (ii) a “plan” (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) or (iii) an entity deemed to hold the plan assets of any of the foregoing (each a “Benefit Plan”) and (b) are not investing on behalf of or with plan assets of a Benefit Plan.

     4. We understand that the Seller, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements, and we agree that if any of the acknowledgments, representations and agreements deemed to have been made by us by our purchase of the Securities, for our own account or for one or more accounts as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion, are no longer accurate, we shall promptly notify the Seller, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee.

     5. You are entitled to rely upon this letter and you are irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.

Very truly yours,

PERFECTION REPRESENTATION

     1. General. The Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the UCC) in all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to the Receivables in favor of the Trustee which, (a) is enforceable upon execution of the Indenture against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer 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. Characterization. The Receivables constitute “tangible chattel paper” within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102. The Issuer has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security interest against the Obligor in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables.

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

     4. Perfection. The Issuer has caused or will have caused, within ten (10) 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 the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture in the Receivables.

     5. Priority. Other than the security interests granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables, the Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that includes a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement (i) relating to the security interests granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture (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 Receivables has any marks or notations indicating that they are pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than Indenture Trustee or the Seller.
