Ladies and Gentlemen:

Harley-Davidson Customer Funding Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Trust Depositor”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harley-Davidson Credit Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Harley-Davidson”), proposes to cause Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Trust 2009-1 (the “Trust”) to issue and sell to you (the “Underwriters”) $111,000,000 principal amount of its 1.48890% Motorcycle Contract Backed Notes, Class A-1 (the “Class A-1 Notes”), $153,000,000 principal amount of its 2.52% Motorcycle Contract Backed Notes, Class A-2 (the “Class A-2 Notes”), $176,000,000 principal amount of its 3.19% Motorcycle Contract Backed Notes, Class A-3 (the “Class A-3 Notes”), and $60,000,000 principal amount of its 4.55% Motorcycle Contract Backed Notes, Class A-4 (the “Class A-4 Notes” and, together with the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and the Class A-3 Notes, the “Notes”).  The assets of the Trust will include a pool of motorcycle conditional sales contracts (the “Contracts”) relating to motorcycles manufactured by one or more subsidiaries of Harley-Davidson, Inc. (including Buell Motorcycle Company, LLC

1

(“Buell”) and MV Agusta (“MV”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harley-Davidson, Inc.), and certain other motorcycle manufacturers, certain monies received thereon after April 30, 2009 (the “Cutoff Date”), all insurance proceeds and liquidation proceeds with respect thereto, security interests in the motorcycles financed thereby, the related Contracts files, the Trust Accounts, proceeds of the foregoing, certain rights with respect to funds on deposit from time to time in the Reserve Fund and certain other property.  The Contracts will be serviced for the Trust by Harley-Davidson.  The Notes will be issued pursuant to the Indenture to be dated as of May 1, 2009 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”) between the Trust and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”).  The Notes will be secured by the assets of the Trust pursuant to the Indenture.  The Class A Notes are hereinafter referred to as the “Offered Securities”.

A certificate (the “Certificate”) will be issued pursuant to a Trust Agreement dated as of April 15, 2009 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), between the Trust Depositor and Wilmington Trust Company, as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”).  The Certificate will initially be retained by the Trust Depositor and will not be offered pursuant to the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined herein) or the Prospectus (as defined herein).

The Trust will acquire the Contracts from the Trust Depositor pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement to be dated as of May 1, 2009 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), among the Trust, the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson, as servicer, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Indenture Trustee.  Harley-Davidson will also agree to perform certain administrative functions on behalf of the Trust pursuant to an Administration Agreement to be dated as of May 1, 2009 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Administration Agreement”) among Harley-Davidson, as administrator, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee.  The Trust Depositor will acquire the Contracts from Harley-Davidson on the Closing Date (as defined herein) pursuant to a Transfer and Sale Agreement to be dated as of May 1, 2009 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Transfer and Sale Agreement”) among the Trust Depositor, as purchaser, and Harley-Davidson, as seller.  All of the assets conveyed to the Trust pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement are referred to herein as the “Trust Property”.  Capitalized terms that are used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

In connection with the sale of the Offered Securities, the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson will prepare a Prospectus Supplement to be dated May 5, 2009 which will supplement the Base Prospectus dated as of April 29, 2009.  The Prospectus sets forth certain information concerning the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson, the Trust and the Offered Securities.  The Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson hereby confirm that they have authorized the use of the Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto, in connection with the offer and sale of the Offered Securities by the Underwriters.  Unless stated to the contrary, all references herein to the Prospectus are to the Prospectus as defined herein and are not meant to include any amendment or supplement thereto.

At or prior to the time when sales to purchasers of the Offered Securities were first made

2

to investors by the Underwriters, which was approximately 12:10 p.m. New York City time on May 5, 2009 (the “Time of Sale”), the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson had prepared the following information (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”): the preliminary prospectus supplement dated April 29, 2009 (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”) to the base prospectus dated April 29, 2009 (the “Preliminary Base Prospectus”) (together, along with information referred to under the caption “Appendix A—Static Pool Information” therein regardless of whether it is deemed a part of the Registration Statement or Prospectus, the “Preliminary Prospectus”).  If, subsequent to the Time of Sale and prior to the Closing Date, such information included an untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and as a result investors in the Offered Securities may terminate their prior “Contracts of Sale” (within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”)) for any Offered Securities and the Underwriters enter into new Contracts of Sale with investors in the Offered Securities, then “Time of Sale Information” will refer to the information conveyed to investors at the time of entry into the first such new Contract of Sale, in an amended Preliminary Prospectus approved by the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson and the Underwriters that corrects such material misstatements or omissions (a “Corrected Prospectus”) and “Time of Sale” will refer to the time and date on which such new Contracts of Sale were entered into.

1.             Representations and Warranties of Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor.  Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor jointly and severally represent and warrant to each Underwriter as set forth below in this Section 1:

(a)       A registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-157910) relating to asset backed notes, including the Offered Securities, has been filed by the Trust Depositor with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and has become effective within the three years prior to the Closing Date, has been amended by various pre-effective amendments, the last of which is Pre-Effective Amendment No. 2 that became effective on April 28, 2009, and is still effective as of the date hereof under the Act.

The Trust Depositor proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Act (the “Rules and Regulations”) a prospectus supplement dated May 5, 2009 (together with information referred to under the caption “Appendix A — Static Pool Information” therein regardless of whether it is deemed a part of the Registration Statement or Prospectus, the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the prospectus dated April 29, 2009 (the “Base Prospectus”), relating to the Offered Securities and the method of distribution thereof.  Such registration statement, including exhibits thereto, and such prospectus, as amended or supplemented to the date hereof, and as further supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, are hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement” and the “Prospectus,” respectively.  Any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement shall include, without limitation, any document filed

3

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein pursuant to the Act.

The conditions to the use of a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Act have been satisfied.  The Trust Depositor has filed the Preliminary Prospectus and it has done so within the applicable period of time required under the Act and the Rules and Regulations.

(b)       The Registration Statement, at the time it became effective, any post-effective amendment thereto, at the time it became effective, the Preliminary Prospectus, as of its date, and the Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, complied and on the Closing Date will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

The Registration Statement, as of the most recent effective date as to each part of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Act, did not include any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

The Preliminary Prospectus, as of its date and as of the Time of Sale, did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and as of the Closing Date, does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and did not and will not omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The representations and warranties in the three preceding paragraphs do not apply to (i) that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification (Form T-1) of the Indenture Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act or (ii) information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Trust Depositor by any Underwriter through J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. specifically for use in connection with preparation of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto), it being agreed that the only such information consists of the statements in the third and fourth paragraphs (concerning initial offering prices, concessions and reallowances) and in the fifth and sixth paragraphs (concerning overallotment, stabilizing transactions and syndicate covering

4

transactions) under the heading “Underwriting” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus Supplement (such information, the “Underwriter Information”).

The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, when they became effective under the Act or were filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, when such documents are filed with the Commission, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Preliminary Prospectus there has not been any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, earnings, business or operations of the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson, and their respective subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except as set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus.

The Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

(c)       The Time of Sale Information, at the Time of Sale, did not, and at the Closing Date will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that neither the Trust Depositor nor Harley-Davidson makes any representation and warranty with respect to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.  As of the Time of Sale, the Trust Depositor was not and as of the Closing Date is not, an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Act.

(d)       [Reserved].

(e)       [Reserved].

(f)        Neither the Trust Depositor nor the Trust is, and neither the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities nor the activities of the Trust pursuant to the Indenture or the Trust Agreement will cause the Trust Depositor or the Trust to be, an “investment company” or under the “control” of an “investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).

(g)       This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor.

5

(h)       None of Harley-Davidson, the Trust Depositor, any of their Affiliates or anyone acting on behalf of Harley-Davidson, the Trust Depositor or any of their Affiliates has taken any action that would require qualification of the Trust Agreement under the Trust Indenture Act or registration of the Trust Depositor under the Investment Company Act, nor will Harley-Davidson, the Trust Depositor or any of their Affiliates act, nor have they authorized or will they authorize any person to act, in such manner.

(i)        Neither the Trust Depositor nor Harley-Davidson is in violation of any provision of any existing law or regulation or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its property is subject, which violations or defaults separately or in the aggregate would have a material adverse effect on the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson or the Trust.

(j)        Neither the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities, nor the execution and delivery by the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson of this Agreement, the Offered Securities, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Administration Agreement, the Lockbox Agreement or the Indenture, nor the incurrence by the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson of the obligations herein and therein set forth, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, nor the fulfillment of the terms hereof or thereof does or will (i) violate any existing law or regulation, applicable to it or its properties or by which it or its properties are or may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with, or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any material indenture, contract, agreement, deed, lease, mortgage or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or its properties are bound or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any of its property or assets, except for those encumbrances created under the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement or the Indenture.

(k)       All consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, filings, registrations or qualifications of or with any court or any other governmental agency, board, commission, authority, official or body required in connection with the execution and delivery by the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson of this Agreement, the Offered Securities, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Administration Agreement, the Indenture, or the Lockbox Agreement, or to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, or to the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof, have been or will have been obtained on or before the Closing Date.

(l)        All actions required to be taken by the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson as a condition to the offer and sale of the Offered Securities as

6

described herein or the consummation of any of the transactions described in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus have been or, prior to the Closing Date, will be taken.

(m)      The representations and warranties of each of the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson in (or incorporated in) the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Transfer and Sale Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Indenture, the Administration Agreement and the Lockbox Agreement and made in any Officer’s Certificate of the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson delivered pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture or the Transfer and Sale Agreement will be true and correct at the time made and on and as of the Closing Date as if set forth herein.

(n)       The Contracts conveyed to the Trust had an aggregate outstanding balance as of the Cutoff Date of not less than $641,025,641.01.

(o)       Each of the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson agrees it shall not grant, assign, pledge or transfer to any Person a security interest in, or any other right, title or interest in, the Contracts, except as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Indenture and the Transfer and Sale Agreement and each agrees to take all action necessary in order to maintain the security interest in the Contracts granted pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Indenture and the Transfer and Sale Agreement.

(p)       There are no actions, proceedings or investigations pending, or to the best knowledge of either the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson, threatened against the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson before any court or before any governmental authority of arbitration board or tribunal which, if adversely determined, could materially and adversely affect, either individually or in the aggregate, the financial position, business, operations or prospects of the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson.

(q)       For Illinois income, franchise and excise tax purposes, under the provisions of Illinois law as of the Closing Date, the Trust will not be classified as an association taxable as a corporation.

(r)        Under generally accepted accounting principles, Harley-Davidson will report its transfer of the Contracts to the Trust Depositor pursuant to the Transfer and Sale Agreement as a sale of the Contracts.

(a)       Prior to the termination of the offering of the Offered Securities, the Trust Depositor will not file any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment, supplement or revision to either the Preliminary Prospectus or to the Prospectus, unless the Trust Depositor has furnished you a copy for your review prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which you shall reasonably object.  Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Trust Depositor will effect the filings required under Rule 424(b) under the Act in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and will provide evidence satisfactory to you of such timely filing.

(b)       During the period when a prospectus is required by the Act or the Exchange Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Offered Securities (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), Harley-Davidson will notify you promptly, and confirm the notice in writing, of (i) the effectiveness of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or the filing of any supplement or amendment to the Prospectus, (ii) the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any document incorporated by reference therein or otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or for additional information, (iv) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Offered Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes and (v) the happening of any event which makes the Registration Statement or the Prospectus contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading.  Harley-Davidson will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain as soon as possible the lifting thereof.

9

(c)       If during the Prospectus Delivery Period any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus in order that the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it shall be necessary during the Prospectus Delivery Period to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to comply with the requirements of the Act or the Rules and Regulations, Harley-Davidson will promptly notify you and will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the review and approval provisions afforded to you described in Section 6(a), such amendment or supplement as may be necessary to correct such statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus comply with such requirements.  Harley-Davidson will use its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable, and Harley-Davidson will furnish to the Underwriters, without charge, such number of copies of such amendment or supplement as the Underwriters may reasonably request.  Any such filing shall not operate as a waiver or limitation of any right of any Underwriter hereunder.

(d)       Upon request, Harley-Davidson will deliver to the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, photocopies of the signed Registration Statement at the time it originally became effective (the “Original Registration Statement”) and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith) prior to the Closing Date.  The copies of the Original Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“EDGAR”), except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T under the Act.

(e)       Prior to the availability of the Prospectus, Harley-Davidson will deliver to the Underwriters, without charge, as many copies of the Preliminary Prospectus as the Underwriters may reasonably request, and Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor hereby consent to the use of such copies for purposes permitted by the Act.  Harley-Davidson will furnish to the Underwriters, without charge, during the Prospectus Delivery Period, such number of copies of the Prospectus as the Underwriters may reasonably request.  The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to any electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T under the Act.  Harley-Davidson will pay the expenses of printing or other production of all documents relating to the offering.

10

(g)       The Trust Depositor will arrange for the qualification of the Offered Securities for sale by the Underwriters under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriters may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the sale of the Offered Securities.  The Trust Depositor will promptly advise the Underwriters of the receipt by the Trust Depositor of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Offered Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

(h)       The Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson will cooperate with the Underwriters and use their best efforts to permit the Offered Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through DTC.

(i)        For a period from the date of this Agreement until the retirement of the Offered Securities, the Servicer will deliver to you the monthly servicing reports, the annual statements of compliance, annual assessments of compliance with servicing criteria and accountants’ attestations in respect of such assessments furnished to the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture, the Trust Agreement or the Administration Agreement, as soon as such statements and reports are furnished to the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee.

(k)       To the extent, if any, that the rating provided with respect to the Offered Securities by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of the McGraw-Hill Companies, (“S&P” and together with Moody’s, the “Rating Agencies”) is conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any actions by the Trust Depositor, the Trust Depositor shall furnish such documents and take such actions.

(l)        Until 30 days following the Closing Date, neither the Trust Depositor nor any trust or other entity originated, directly or indirectly, by the Trust Depositor

11

(m)      The Trust Depositor will enter into the Trust Agreement, Harley-Davidson will enter into the Administration Agreement, the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson, the Indenture Trustee and the Trust will enter into the Sale and Servicing Agreement and Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor will enter into the Transfer and Sale Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date.

(o)       Each of the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson will take all actions, and cause the Issuing Entity to take all actions, necessary to ensure that, on the Closing Date, the TALF-Eligible Notes qualify as Eligible Collateral under TALF and shall fully and timely perform all actions required of them (and cause the Issuing Entity to fully and timely perform all actions required of it) pursuant to the “Certification as to TALF Eligibility” contained in the Prospectus (the “TALF Eligibility Certification”).  Harley-Davidson shall provide each Underwriter with copies of all notices or press releases relating to the TALF-Eligible Notes that are delivered by Harley-Davidson or the Issuing Entity (or on their behalf) to the FRBNY pursuant to Section 5 of the TALF Eligibility Certification.

7.             Payment of Expenses, Etc.  If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 13, the Trust Depositor will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the printing and filing of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, (ii) the printing of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus and each amendment thereto, (iii) the fees of the Trustee and its counsel, (iv) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Offered Securities to the Underwriters, (v) the fees and disbursements of the Trust Depositor’s accountants, (vi) the qualification of the Offered Securities under securities laws in accordance with the provisions of Section 6(g), including filing fees in connection therewith, (vii) the printing and delivery to the Underwriters of copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, (viii) the printing and delivery to the Underwriters of copies of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus and of each amendment thereto, (ix) the printing and delivery to the Underwriters of copies of any blue sky or legal investment survey prepared in connection with the Offered Securities, (x) any fees charged by Rating Agencies for the rating of the Offered Securities, (xi) the costs and expenses (including any damages or other amounts payable in connection with legal and contractual liability) associated with reforming any Contracts for Sale of the Offered Securities made by the Underwriters caused by a Defective Prospectus or a breach of any representation in Section 1(b)

9.             Reimbursement of Expenses.  If the sale of the Offered Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligation of the Underwriters set forth in Section 8 hereof is not satisfied, because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of Harley-Davidson or the Trust Depositor to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by the Underwriters in payment for the Offered Securities on the Closing Date, Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor will reimburse the Underwriters upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Offered Securities.

10.           Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)        The Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls each Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Trust Free Writing Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information, the Issuer Information or any information provided by the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson to any Underwriter or any holder or prospective purchaser of Offered Securities or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made (x) 

27

in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, any Trust Free Writing Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information or (y) in any Derived Information (as defined in Section 11 below) unless such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Derived Information results from an error or omission in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any Issuer Information.  The Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter (including in its capacity as an Applicable Primary Dealer (as defined in the MLSA) under the MLSA) from and against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Harley-Davidson in the TALF Eligibility Certification or in any other document provided by the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson to the FRBNY in connection with the TALF-Eligible Notes.

The Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter (including in its capacity as an Applicable Primary Dealer (as defined in the MLSA) under the MLSA) from and against any loss, claim or damages arising out of the performance or the breach of the Trust Depositor’s or Harley-Davidson’s obligations under Section 6(o) herein.

(b)        Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson, their directors, their officers and each person who controls the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson to each Underwriter, but only with reference to untrue statements or omissions or alleged untrue statements or omissions made in (x) the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information or (y) any Derived Information; provided, however, that the indemnity with respect to clause (y) above shall not apply to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Derived Information that results from an error or omission in (i) the Preliminary Prospectus, (ii) the Prospectus, (iii) the Time of Sale Information or (iv) any Issuer Information.  This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that an Underwriter may otherwise have.

(c)        Upon receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in

28

respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 10, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above.  The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party.  Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified parties and the indemnifying party and the indemnified parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to them and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party.  An indemnifying party shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) does not include a statement as to, or admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any such indemnified party, and (y) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(d)        In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson and each Underwriter agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson and the several Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the

29

Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson on the one hand and by the several Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to the Offered Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder.  If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson and each Underwriter shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson on the one hand and of the several Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  Benefits received by the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses), and benefits received by any Underwriter shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter from the Trust Depositor in connection with the purchase of the Offered Securities hereunder.  Relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether any alleged untrue statement or omission relates to information provided by the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson on the one hand or the several Underwriters on the other.  The Trust Depositor, Harley-Davidson and the several Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  For purposes of this Section 10, each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of such Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each officer and director of the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson shall have the same rights to contribution as the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

(c)       The Trust Depositor shall not disseminate to any potential investor any information relating to the Offered Securities that constitutes a “written communication” within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Act, other than the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, unless the Trust Depositor has obtained the prior consent of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc..

(d)       Each Underwriter represents, warrants, covenants and agrees with the Trust Depositor that, other than the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, it has not made, used, prepared, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve or refer to any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Offered Securities, including but not limited to any “ABS informational and computational materials” as defined in Item 1101(a) of Regulation AB under the Act; provided, however, that (i) each Underwriter may prepare and convey one or more “written communications” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) containing no more than the following: (1) information included in the previously filed Preliminary Prospectus (including a cdi file based on such information), (2) information relating to the class, size, rating, price, CUSIP numbers, coupon, yield, spread, benchmark, pricing prepayment speed and clean up call information, status and/or legal

(e)       Harley-Davidson agrees to file with the Commission when required under the Rules and Regulations the following:

(i)  any Free Writing Prospectus that includes Issuer Information (any such Free Writing Prospectus, a “Trust Free Writing Prospectus”);

(ii)       subject to the Underwriters’ compliance with Section 11(d), any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus at the time required to be filed; and

(iii)  any Free Writing Prospectus for which the Trust Depositor or any person acting on its behalf, including, without limitation, Harley-Davidson, provided, authorized or approved information that is prepared and published or disseminated by a person unaffiliated with the Trust Depositor or any other offering participant that is in the business of publishing, radio or television broadcasting or otherwise disseminating communications.

(f)        Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11(e), Harley-Davidson will not be required to file any Free Writing Prospectus that does not contain substantive changes from or additions to a Free Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission.

(g)       The Trust Depositor and the Underwriters each agree that any Free

32

Writing Prospectuses prepared by it will contain a legend substantially similar to the following legend:

The issuer has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates.  Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering.  You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.  Alternatively, the issuer, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling toll-free 1-8[xx-xxx-xxxx].

(h)       In the event the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson becomes aware that, as of the Time of Sale, any Time of Sale Information contains or contained any untrue statement of material fact or omits or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein (when read in conjunction with all Time of Sale Information) in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (a “Defective Prospectus”), Harley-Davidson shall promptly notify the Underwriters of such untrue statement or omission no later than one business day after discovery and Harley-Davidson shall, if requested by the Underwriters, prepare and deliver to the Underwriters a Corrected Prospectus.

(i)        In disseminating information to prospective investors, each Underwriter has complied and will continue to comply fully with all applicable Rules and Regulations, including but not limited to Rules 164 and 433 under the Act and the requirements thereunder for filing and retention of Free Writing Prospectuses, including retaining any Free Writing Prospectuses it has used but which are not required to be filed for the required period.

(j)        Prior to entering into any Contract of Sale, each Underwriter shall convey the Time of Sale Information to the prospective investor.  Each Underwriter shall maintain sufficient records to document its conveyance of the Time of Sale Information to the potential investor prior to the formation of the related Contract of Sale and shall maintain such records as required by the Rules and Regulations.

(k)       If a Defective Prospectus has been corrected with a Corrected Prospectus, each Underwriter shall (A) deliver the Corrected Prospectus to each investor with whom it entered into a Contract of Sale and that received the Defective Prospectus from it prior to entering into a new Contract of Sale with such investor, (B) notify such investor that the prior Contract of Sale with the investor, if any, has been terminated and of the investor’s rights as a result of such agreement and (C) provide such investor with an opportunity to agree to purchase the Offered Securities on the terms described in the Corrected

33

Prospectus, in each case as consistent with the Underwriter’s good faith interpretation of the requirements of Commission Release No. 33-8591.

12.           Defaults of the Underwriters.  If any Underwriter defaults in its obligation to purchase the Offered Securities hereunder on the Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the nondefaulting Underwriters and the Trust Depositor for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of the nondefaulting Underwriters, Harley-Davidson or the Trust Depositor, except as provided in Section 15.  Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.  The term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section.

In the event of any such default that does not result in a termination of this Agreement, any of the nondefaulting Underwriters or the Trust Depositor shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required change in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

13.           Termination.  This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Underwriters, by notice given to the Trust Depositor prior to delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities, if prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market’s National Market shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on either such exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New York State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Underwriters, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Offered Securities as contemplated by the Prospectus.

14.           No Bankruptcy Petition.  Each Underwriter covenants and agrees that, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of all securities issued by the Trust Depositor or by a trust for which the Trust Depositor was the depositor, which securities were rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Trust Depositor any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

15.           Representations and Indemnities to Survive.  The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Trust Depositor and Harley-Davidson and their respective officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Trust Depositor or Harley-Davidson or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 13 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities.  The provisions of Sections 9, 10 and 16 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

16.           Relationship Among Parties.  Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor acknowledge and agree that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length

34

contractual counterparty to Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor with respect to the offering of the Offered Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, Harley-Davidson, the Trust Depositor or any other person.  Additionally, none of the Underwriters are advising Harley-Davidson, the Trust Depositor or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction.  Harley-Davidson and the Trust Depositor shall consult with their own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to Harley-Davidson or the Trust Depositor with respect to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters. Any review by the Underwriters of Harley-Davidson, the Trust Depositor, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of Harley-Davidson or the Trust Depositor.

17.           Notices.  All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to them c/o J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., 270 Park Avenue, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10017, Attention: John Cho; or if sent to the Trust Depositor, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to it at Harley-Davidson Customer Funding Corp., 3850 Arrowhead Drive, Carson City, Nevada 89706, Attention:  President; or if sent to Harley-Davidson, will be mailed, delivered, telegraphed and confirmed to it at Harley-Davidson Credit Corp., 3850 Arrowhead Drive, Carson City, Nevada 89706, Attention: President.

18.           Successors.  This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 10 hereof, and, except as expressly set forth herein, no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder, including any person for which an Underwriter, in its capacity as an Applicable Primary Dealer (as defined in the MLSA) under the MLSA, acts as agent.

20.           Business Day.  For purposes of this Agreement, “business day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday that is not a day on which national banking associations in the cities of Chicago, Illinois or New York, New York are authorized or obligated by law, executive order or regulation to close.

21.           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts will together constitute one and the same agreement.

In any such proceeding, any Dealer Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Dealer Indemnified Party unless (i) the Issuer Parties and the Dealer Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the Dealer Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to the Dealer Indemnified Party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Dealer Indemnified Parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the Issuer Parties, (iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon advice of counsel to the Dealer Indemnified Party) between the Dealer Indemnified Party and the Issuer Parties (in which case the Issuer Parties will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Dealer Indemnified Party) or (iv) an Issuer Party has elected to assume the defense of such proceeding but has failed within a reasonable

39

time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Dealer Indemnified Party. The Issuer Parties shall not, with respect to any action brought against any Dealer Indemnified Party, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Dealer Indemnified Parties, and all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed within a reasonable period of time as they are incurred. Any separate firm appointed for any Dealer Indemnified Party in accordance with this subsection (b) shall be designated in writing by such Dealer Indemnified Party. An Issuer Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, with respect to an action of which an Issuer Party was notified and had the opportunity to participate in (whether or not it chose to so participate), an Issuer Party agrees to indemnify any Dealer Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time a Dealer Indemnified Party shall have requested an Issuer Party to reimburse the Dealer Indemnified Party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the fourth sentence of this paragraph, an Issuer Party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such Indemnifying Party of the aforesaid request, and during such 60 day period such Issuer Party has not responded thereto, and (ii) such Issuer Party shall not have reimbursed the Dealer Indemnified Party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Issuer Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Dealer Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Dealer Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Dealer Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Dealer Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(c)           This indemnity remains an obligation of each Issuer Party notwithstanding termination of the Master Agreement or the TALF Program or payment in full of the Relevant Loans, and is binding upon each Issuer Party’s successors and assigns. Each Dealer Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder shall be enforceable against each Issuer Party directly, without any obligation to first proceed against any third party for whom such Dealer Indemnified Party may act, and irrespective of any rights or recourse that such Issuer Party may have against any such third party.

SECTION 4.           The Issuer Parties hereby acknowledge (a) the existence of the Master Agreement and the terms thereof and (b) that the Relevant Dealers are obtaining the Relevant Loans, pledging the Specified Securities as collateral therefor and undertaking obligations, in each case as agents on behalf of the Borrowers with respect thereto in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities of the Issuer Parties set forth in this Undertaking. This Undertaking is for the sole benefit of the Dealer Indemnified Parties in connection with the performance by a Related Dealer of its obligations with respect to the TALF Program and not in its capacity as an underwriter of the Specified Securities, and may not be relied upon by (i) the Dealer Indemnified Parties for any other purpose or (ii) any direct or indirect purchaser or owner of the Specified Securities, or any other Person claiming by or through any such purchaser or owner or any third party beneficiary, for any purpose or in any circumstance, whether on the theory that the Primary Dealers act as their agents or otherwise.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer Parties have duly executed this Undertaking as of the day and year first written above.
