Agreement, as if set out in full, and on the basis that a reference in
clause 1.2(e), (f), (g), (k) or (l) to "this Deed" is a reference to
this Agreement.
1.3 Limitation of Trustee's Liability
(a) General
Clause 30 of the Master Trust Deed applies to the obligations
and liabilities of the Trustee and the Manager under this
Agreement.
(b) Liability of Trustee limited to its right to indemnity
(i) The Trustee enters into this Agreement only in its
capacity as trustee of each Trust and in no other
capacity (except where the Transaction Documents
provide otherwise). Subject to paragraph (iii) below,
a liability arising under or in connection with this
Agreement or a Trust can be enforced against the
Trustee only to the extent to which it can be
satisfied out of the assets and property of the
relevant Trust which are available to satisfy the
right of the Trustee to be exonerated or indemnified
for the liability. This limitation of the Trustee's
liability applies despite any other provision of this
Agreement and extends to all liabilities and
obligations of the Trustee in any way connected with
any representation, warranty, conduct, omission,
agreement or transaction related to this Agreement or
a Trust.
(ii) Subject to paragraph (iii) below, no person (including
any Relevant Party) may take action against the
Trustee in any capacity other than as trustee of the
relevant Trust or seek the appointment of a receiver
(except under the Security Trust Deed), or a
liquidator, an administrator or any similar person to
the Trustee or prove in any liquidation,
administration or arrangements of or affecting the
Trustee.
(iii) The provisions of this clause 1.3 shall not apply to
any obligation or liability of the Trustee to the
extent that it is not satisfied because under a
Transaction Document or by operation of law there is a
reduction in the extent of the Trustee's
indemnification or exoneration out of the Assets of
the relevant Trust as a result of the Trustee's fraud,
negligence, or Default.
(iv) It is acknowledged that the Relevant Parties are
responsible under this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents for performing a variety of
obligations relating to each Trust. No act or omission
of the Trustee (including any related failure to
satisfy its obligations under this Agreement) will be
considered fraud, negligence or Default of the Trustee
for the purpose of paragraph (iii) above to the extent
to which the act or omission was caused or contributed
to by any failure by any Relevant Party or any person
who has been delegated or appointed by the Trustee in
accordance with the Transaction Documents to fulfil
its obligations relating to a Trust or by any other
act or omission of a Relevant Party or any such
person.
(v) In exercising their powers under the Transaction
Documents, each of the Trustee, the Security Trustee
and the Noteholders
Page 3
must ensure that no attorney, agent, delegate,
receiver or receiver and manager appointed by it in
accordance with this Agreement or any other
Transaction Documents has authority to act on behalf
of the Trustee in a way which exposes the Trustee to
any personal liability and no act or omission of any
such person will be considered fraud, negligence, or
Default of the Trustee for the purpose of paragraph
(iii) above.
(vi) In this clause, Relevant Parties means each of the
Manager, the Servicer, the Custodian, the Calculation
Agent, each Paying Agent, the Note Trustee and the
provider of any Support Facility.
(vii) Nothing in this clause limits the obligations
expressly imposed on the Trustee under the Transaction
Documents.
1.4 Supplementary Terms Notice
This Agreement is subject to the Supplementary Terms Notice for each
Relevant Trust. In case of any inconsistency, the relevant
Supplementary Terms Notice shall prevail.
1.5 Knowledge of Trustee
In relation to any Trust, the Trustee will be considered to have
knowledge or notice of or be aware of any matter or thing if the
Trustee has knowledge, notice or awareness of that matter or thing by
virtue of the actual notice or awareness of the officers or employees
of the Trustee who have day to day responsibility for the
administration of that Trust.
1.6 Knowledge of Servicer
For the purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer will only be
considered to have knowledge, notice of or to be aware of any thing if
the Servicer has knowledge, notice or awareness of that thing by virtue
of the actual knowledge, notice or awareness of the officers or
employees of the Servicer who have day to day responsibility for the
carrying its obligations under this Agreement.

2.1 Appointment
The Servicer is hereby appointed to perform the Services during the
Term for each Trust in relation to which the Servicer is specified as,
and agrees to act as, the Servicer in the relevant Supplementary Terms
Notice. By executing a Supplementary Terms Notice, the Servicer shall
be taken to have accepted that appointment, and agreed to perform the
Services in relation to that Trust in accordance with this Agreement.
2.2 General duties and standard of care
The Servicer shall service the Receivables:
(a) in accordance with this Agreement;
(b) to the extent not provided in this Agreement, in accordance

appropriately qualified Servicer of the relevant financial
products.
2.3 Powers
Subject to clauses 2.2, 3.1(i) and 3.3, the Servicer has the express
power to the extent such action will not cause a Material Adverse
Effect (that is, an event which will materially and adversely affect
the amount of any payment to be made
Page 4
to any Noteholder, or will materially and adversely affect the timing
of such payment):
(a) to waive any fees and break costs which may be collected in
the ordinary course of servicing the Receivables or arrange
the rescheduling of interest due and unpaid following a
default under any Receivables;
(b) in its discretion, to waive any right in respect of any
Receivables and Receivable Securities in the ordinary course
of servicing the Receivables and Receivable Securities
(including in accordance with its normal collection
procedures); and
(c) to grant an extension of maturity beyond 30 years from the
date any Receivable that relates to a mortgage loan was made,
when required to do so by Law or a Government Agency. The
restriction on granting extensions that will not have a
Material Adverse Effect shall not apply where the extension is
required by Law or a Government Agency.
2.4 Records
(a) The Servicer will maintain the Data Base used by it as a
master record of Receivables and Receivable Rights in relation
to each Relevant Trust.
(b) Each Receivable will be electronically tagged so that all
related Collections and performance statistics (the nature of
which shall be as mutually agreed from time to time by the
Servicer, the Manager and the Trustee) for that Receivable
will be readily identified.
2.5 Servicer's power to delegate
Without in any way affecting the generality of the above, the Servicer
may in carrying out and performing its duties and obligations contained
in this Agreement:
(a) (delegate to employees) delegate to any of its officers and
employees all Services (whether or not requiring or involving
the Servicer's judgment or discretion);
(b) (appoint attorneys or subcontract) appoint any person to be
its attorney or agent or delegate to or subcontract with any
person for such purposes and with such powers, authorities and
discretions (not exceeding those vested in the Servicer) as
the Servicer thinks fit with:
(i) power for the attorney or agent to sub-delegate any
such powers, authorities or discretions;
(ii) power to authorise the issue in the name of the
Servicer of documents bearing facsimile signatures of
the Servicer or of the attorney, agent or delegate
(either with or without proper manuscript signatures
of their officers); and
(iii) provisions for the protection and convenience of those
dealing with any such attorney, agent or delegate as
they may think fit; and
(c) (suspend agents and sub-agents) supersede or suspend any such
attorney, agent or delegate for such cause or reason as the
Servicer may in its sole discretion think sufficient with or
without assigning any cause or reason and either absolutely
or for such time as it may think proper,
but despite any delegation or appointment under the above paragraphs
of this clause, the Servicer shall remain liable for the performance
of the Services in accordance with this Agreement and for the acts or
omissions of any officer, employee, attorney, agent, delegate,
sub-delegate or sub-agent and shall be solely responsible for the
fees and expenses of such officer, employee, attorney, agent,
delegate, sub-delegate or sub-agent.

2.6 Servicer's power to appoint advisers
In accordance with its ordinary course of business, the Servicer may
appoint and engage and act upon the opinion, advice or information
obtained from any valuers, solicitors, barristers, accountants,
surveyors, property managers, real estate agents, contractors,
qualified advisers and such other persons as may be necessary, usual or
desirable for the purpose of enabling the Servicer properly to exercise
and perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
2.7 Legal title
The Servicer agrees that upon being directed to do so by the Trustee
following a Title Perfection Event for a Relevant Trust, it will
promptly take all action to perfect the Trustee's legal title to the
relevant Receivables and Receivable Rights by:
(a) giving written notice of the Trustee's interest to any Obligor
or Mortgagor;
(b) preparing, lodging and registering any Transfer of Receivable
Security;
(c) taking any other action required or permitted by law to
perfect such legal title;
(d) delivering all Relevant Documents which it has in its
possession and procuring the Custodian to deliver all other
Relevant Documents for that Trust to or to the order of the
Trustee. If the Servicer or the Custodian (as the case may be)
has not done so within 10 Business Days (or such longer period
as the Trustee permits in its reasonable discretion), pursuant
to the Custodian Agreement, the Trustee must enter any
premises where those Relevant Documents are kept, take
possession of and remove those Relevant Documents. The
Servicer shall assist the Trustee in doing so; and
(e) taking any other action which the Trustee requires it to do.
2.8 Transfer of custody of Relevant Documents
If a Servicer Transfer Event occurs and is subsisting, the Servicer
immediately must deliver all Relevant Documents which it has in its
possession to the Trustee, or as it directs. If the Servicer has not
done so within 10 Business Days (or such longer period as the Trustee
in its reasonable discretion permits) the Trustee must enter any
premises where the Relevant Documents are kept, take possession of and
remove the Relevant Documents. The Servicer shall assist in doing so
and will take or perform any acts which the Trustee reasonably directs
it to do in relation to the Trustee taking possession of and removing
the Relevant Documents. If the Trustee does not have possession of all
of the Relevant Documents within that period it may, to the extent that
it has information available to it to do so, lodge caveats in relation
to the Receivables and Receivable Rights for which it does not hold the
Relevant Documents.
2.9 License to enter Servicer's premises
The Servicer irrevocably licenses the Trustee to enter onto its
premises for the purpose of taking possession of, and removing, any
Relevant Documents which the Servicer has in its possession in
accordance with this Agreement.
3. Undertakings

respect of a Mortgage Insurance Policy to the extent
those rights relate to a Receivable and the
Receivable Rights;

Policy when it is required to do so in accordance
