Section 2.04 Appointment of Trustee.

The Trustee is hereby appointed as trustee of the Trust effective as of the date hereof, to have all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein, and the Trustee hereby accepts such appointment, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 2.05 Initial Sale and Capital Contribution of Trust Estate; Repurchase Obligation.

(a) The Trust Depositor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the Trust, as of the date hereof, the sum of $10.00. The Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt from the Trust Depositor, as of the date hereof, of the foregoing contribution, which shall constitute the initial Trust Estate (prior to giving effect to the conveyances described in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Payment Account. The Trust Depositor shall pay organizational expenses of the Trust as they may arise or shall, upon the request of the Trustee, promptly reimburse the Trustee for any such expenses paid by the Trustee; provided that the Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to pay any such expenses from its own funds. In addition, the Trust Depositor shall be responsible for the payment of certain other fees and expenses incurred by the Trust or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Trust from time to time (including, but not limited to, audit fees and tax preparation fees), as further described in the Fee Letter.

(b) In addition, on each Purchase Date, simultaneously with the transfer of Receivables from the Originator to the Trust Depositor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Trust Depositor hereby (i) sells, assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the Trust the Assets, in exchange for the Cash Purchase Price which is payable to the Originator in respect of such Assets by the Trust Depositor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and (ii) assigns to the Trust all of its right, title and interest in all of its other assets (excluding the Residual Interest Certificate, any Split Payments, or Term Certain Periodic Payments owned or receivable by the Trust Depositor). With respect to any Asset that is transferred by the Trust Depositor to the Trust hereunder, if any representation or warranty of the Originator under the Receivables Purchase Agreement that relates to such Asset shall have been incorrect when made (and the Trust Depositor and the Trustee (at the written direction of the Controlling Noteholder pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement) have not waived such incorrect representation or

warranty in accordance with this Agreement and Section 5.01(m) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, respectively), the Trust Depositor agrees to either (i) repurchase such Asset from the Trust (and the Trust agrees to return such Asset to the Trust Depositor) in exchange for the repurchase price to be paid by the Originator for such Asset, which amount shall be deposited into the Payment Account or paid in such other fashion as the Trustee shall reasonably request, or (ii) substitute an Eligible Receivable for such Asset, in either case as set forth in Section 5.01(m) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

(c) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each purchase of Assets made hereunder shall constitute a “sale” from the Trust Depositor to the Trust under Applicable Law and regulations, which sale is absolute and irrevocable and provides the Trust with all indicia and rights of ownership of the Assets and such Related Property. Neither the Trust Depositor nor the Trust intends the transactions contemplated hereunder to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from the Trust to the Trust Depositor secured by such property. Except for certain indemnities pursuant to Section 8.02, each sale of Assets and the associated Related Property by the Trust Depositor to the Trust is made without recourse to the Trust Depositor; provided, however, that (i) the Trust Depositor shall be liable to the Trust for all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Trust Depositor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) such sale or absolute transfer does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by the Trust or any assignee thereof of any obligation of the Trust Depositor or any other person to any Claimant, Obligor, or any other Person in connection with the Assets, or any other obligations of the Trust Depositor thereunder or in connection therewith, other than to return (or provide for the return of) any Scheduled Payments (or any portion thereof) not covered under the Settlement Purchase Agreement and not sold or transferred to the Trust hereunder back to such Claimant (it being understood and agreed that pursuant to the Servicing Agreement the Servicer shall remit or cause to be remitted all amounts in respect of Split Payments in accordance with Section 5.01(f) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement). In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the transfer of Assets made hereunder shall constitute sales or absolute transfers of such Assets by the Trust Depositor to the Trust rather than a loan by the Trust Depositor to the Trust secured by such Assets, the Trust Depositor agrees to note in its books and records (including, without limitation, computer files) that such Assets have been sold or transferred to the Trust and to respond to any inquiries made by third parties as to the ownership of such Assets so sold or transferred that such Assets have been sold or transferred by the Trust Depositor to the Trust.

(d) In addition, the parties hereby intend that (i) the Assets transferred hereunder shall no longer be deemed to be the property, assets, rights or liabilities of the Trust Depositor, (ii) none of the Trust Depositor, its creditors or, in any insolvency proceeding with respect to the Trust Depositor or the Trust Depositor’s property, a bankruptcy trustee, receiver, debtor, debtor in possession or similar person shall have any rights, legal or equitable, whatsoever to reacquire, reclaim, recover, repudiate, disaffirm, redeem or recharacterize as property of the Trust Depositor the Assets transferred hereunder and (iii) in the event of a bankruptcy, receivership or other insolvency proceeding with respect to the Trust Depositor, any of its Affiliates or the Trust Depositor’s property, the Assets transferred hereunder shall not be deemed to be part of the Trust Depositor’s property, assets, rights or estate.

(e) If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(c), a court of competent jurisdiction were to hold that any transfer of Assets hereunder does not constitute a valid sale or transfer of the affected Assets as set forth above but instead constitutes a loan, the parties have entered into the Georgia Security Agreement, which provides, in relevant part, that if such transfer is recharacterized as a loan, the Trust Depositor grants a security interest (within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Georgia) in favor of the Trust in all of the Trust Depositor’s rights, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral, to secure (i) such loan effective upon each such purchase and (ii) the Trust Depositor’s payment and performance obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Trust Depositor is a party or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

(f) In connection with the security interest granted pursuant to the Georgia Security Agreement, the Trust Depositor intends the security interest granted pursuant to the Georgia Security Agreement in favor of the Trust to be prior to all other liens in respect of the Assets other than Permitted Liens. Similarly, in connection with the security interest granted pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Trust intends the security interest granted pursuant to the Security Agreement in favor of the Class A Noteholders to be prior to all other liens in respect of the Assets other than Permitted Liens. The Trust Depositor shall ensure that pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall take all actions necessary to obtain and maintain, for the benefit of the Trust and the Class A Noteholders, a first lien on and a first priority, perfected security interest in the Collateral (in the case of the Trust) and in the Assets and all of the Trust’s other assets (excluding any Split Payments, or Term Certain Periodic Payments owned or receivable by the Trust Depositor) (in the case of the Class A Noteholders), subject to any Permitted Liens with respect thereto. The Back-up Servicer shall serve as the initial custodian of all documents evidencing the Assets and all other portions of the Records. However, in connection with the security interests referenced above, at any time, at the request of the Controlling Noteholder, the Servicer or the Back-up Servicer shall cause to be delivered into the possession of the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and the Class A Noteholder as pledgees, indorsed in blank, any documents evidencing any Asset which transferred to the Trust hereunder, and all other portions of the Records. The Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, acknowledges and agrees that it holds the Assets delivered to the Trust under this Agreement for the benefit of the Holders. The Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, agrees to maintain continuous possession of all instruments and Records delivered to it (if any) by the Back-up Servicer pursuant to this Section 2.05(f) until this Agreement shall have terminated in accordance with its terms or until, pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party, the Trustee is otherwise authorized and directed to release such instrument from the Assets. The Servicer (or its duly authorized designee), from time to time pursuant to the Servicing Agreement (or the Back-up Servicer, acting pursuant to the Back-up Servicing Agreement, if such action is not specified among the “Services” listed in the Servicing Agreement), will prepare (or shall cause to be prepared), execute and deliver all such financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments (or any supplements or amendments thereto), and will take such other action necessary or advisable to:

(i) maintain or preserve the lien and security interests (and the priority thereof) created under the Georgia Security Agreement and the Security Agreement or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

(ii) perfect, publish notice of or protect the validity of any grants made or purported to be made by the Georgia Security Agreement and the Security Agreement;

(iii) enforce any of the Assets transferred to the Trust as and to the extent commercially reasonable and in accordance with this Agreement, the Georgia Security Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Servicing Agreement and the Back-up Servicing Agreement; or

(iv) preserve and defend title to the Assets and the rights of the Trust and the Class A Noteholder in such Assets against the claims of all persons and parties.

(g) The Trust hereby designates each of the Trustee, the Servicer and the Back-up Servicer as the Trust’s agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement, continuation statement, or other instrument required to be executed under the Georgia Security Agreement or the Security Agreement.

Section 2.06 Declaration of Trust.

The Trustee hereby declares that it will hold the Trust Estate in trust upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit of the Holders, subject to the obligations of the Trust under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Trust constitutes a statutory trust under the Statutory Trust Statute and that this Agreement constitutes the governing instrument of such statutory trust. It is the intention of the parties hereto that, solely for federal income tax purposes, the Trust shall be treated as set forth in Section 2.12 of this Agreement. The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Trust Depositor will file or cause to be filed on behalf of the Trust all annual or other necessary returns, reports and other forms consistent with the characterization of the Trust as set forth in Section 2.12 of this Agreement. Effective as of the date hereof, the Trustee shall have all rights, powers and authority set forth herein and under the laws of the State of Delaware with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Trust.

Section 2.07 Liability of the Holders.

No Holder shall have any personal liability for any liability or obligation of the Trust.

Section 2.08 Title to Trust Property.

Legal title to all of the Trust Estate shall be vested at all times in the Trust as a separate legal entity except where Applicable Law in any jurisdiction requires title to any part of the Trust Estate to be vested in a trustee or trustees, in which case title shall be deemed to be vested in the Trustee, a co-trustee and/or a separate trustee, as the case may be. If any portion of the Trust Estate is deemed to be vested in the Trustee, a co-trustee and/or a separate trustee (a) the Trustee, upon having actual knowledge thereof, will promptly notify the Servicer and (b) the Servicer (or its duly authorized designee) will cause to be filed such UCC financing statements and related filings, documents or writings as are necessary (or as shall be reasonably requested by the Trustee on behalf of the Class A Noteholder) to maintain the Trust’s and the Class A Noteholders’ security interests in the Collateral and the Assets, respectively, under the Georgia Security Agreement and the Security Agreement, respectively.

Payments will be received by the Trust only in Delaware or such other state in which the Corporate Trust Office may be located, and payments will be made by the Trust only from Delaware or such other state in which the Corporate Trust Office may be located.

No Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate shall entitle its Holder to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless there shall appear on such instrument a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A (with respect to the Residual Interest Certificate) or Exhibit B (with respect to the Class A Note or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note), executed by the Trustee or the Registrar, by manual signature of a Responsible Officer; such authentication shall constitute conclusive evidence that such instrument has been duly and validly authorized, issued, authenticated and delivered hereunder and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, fully paid and non-assessable. The Class A Note (or each Class A Note, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate shall be dated the date of their authentication.

Section 3.05 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of the Class A Note or the Residual Interest Certificate.

(a) The Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, a Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Registrar shall provide for the registration of the Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate and, subject

to Sections 3.03 and 3.11 hereof, of transfers and exchanges thereof as herein provided. The Trustee shall be the initial Registrar. Promptly upon written request therefor from the Trustee, the Registrar shall provide to the Trustee in writing such information regarding or contained in the Register as the Trustee may reasonably request. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely (and shall be fully protected in relying) on such information.

(b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Class A Note or the Residual Interest Certificate (if the Controlling Noteholder has approved such transfer in accordance with Section 3.03(b)) at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09, the Registrar shall cause the Trustee to execute and the Trustee or the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note), or a new Residual Interest Certificate, as applicable, of a like aggregate amount dated the date of authentication by the Trustee or any authenticating agent. At the option of a Holder, the Class A Note (or each Class A Note, if there is more than one Class A Note) may be exchanged for one or more Class A Notes of a like aggregate percentage upon surrender of such Class A Note to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09. The Residual Interest Certificate may only be exchanged for a new Residual Interest Certificate upon surrender of the prior Residual Interest Certificate for exchange (if the Controlling Noteholder has approved such exchange in accordance with Section 3.03(b)) at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.09.

(c) Every Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (if approved by the Controlling Noteholder in accordance with Section 3.03(b), in the case of the Residual Interest Certificate) shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar duly executed by the registered Holder or such registered Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (if approved by the Controlling Noteholder in accordance with Section 3.03(b), in the case of the Residual Interest Certificate) shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practice.

(d) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of any Class A Note or the Residual Interest Certificate (if approved by the Controlling Noteholder in accordance with Section 3.03(b)), but the Trustee or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or charge by a Governmental Authority that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange thereof.

Section 3.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate.

If (a) any mutilated Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate shall be surrendered to the Registrar, or if the Registrar and the Trustee shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate, and (b) there shall be delivered to the Registrar and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to indemnify and save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice to the Trust that such Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Registrar shall cause the Trustee on behalf of the Trust to execute and the Trustee

or the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Class A Note or Residual Certificate, a new Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate of like tenor and denomination. The Holder of such Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate shall pay the reasonable expenses and charges of the Registrar and the Trustee in connection therewith. In connection with the issuance of any new Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate under this Section 3.06, the Trustee or the Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other charge by a Governmental Authority that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Residual Interest Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership of a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Residual Interest Certificate shall be found at any time. Any duplicate Class A Note issued pursuant to this Section 3.06 shall constitute conclusive evidence of its Holder’s right to the payment obligations of the Trust in respect of principal, Fixed Interest and Contingent Interest to be distributed on such Class A Note pursuant to Section 5.02, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Class A Note shall be found at any time.

Section 3.07 Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentation of a Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate for registration of transfer, the Trustee, the Registrar or any other agent thereof may treat the Person in whose name any Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate is registered in the Register as the owner of such Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate, as applicable, for the purpose of receiving distributions from the Trustee on behalf of the Trust pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trustee, the Registrar or any other agent thereof shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

Section 3.08 Access to List of Holders’ Names and Addresses.

The Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, the Servicer and the Trust Depositor, within ten (10) days after receipt by the Registrar of a written request therefor from the Trustee, the Servicer or the Trust Depositor, a list, in such form as the Trustee, the Servicer or the Trust Depositor may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders as of the most recent Record Date. If (i) at any time, three or more Holders of Class A Notes or (ii) at any time, one or more Holders of Class A Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Percentage Interests or (iii) at any time after the Class A Target Condition is satisfied, the Holder of the Residual Interest Certificate, apply in writing to the Registrar, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Class A Note (or each Class A Note, if there is more than one Class A Note) and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit to such other Holders, then the Registrar shall, within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Holders. Upon receipt of any such application, the Registrar will promptly notify the Trust Depositor by providing a copy of such application and a copy of the list of Holders produced in response thereto. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Trust Depositor, the Registrar and the Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

Section 3.09 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Registrar shall maintain an office or offices or agency or agencies where the Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) or the Residual Interest Certificate may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (in the case of the Residual Interest Certificate, if approved by the Class A Noteholder in accordance with Section 3.03(b)) and where notices and demands to or upon the Registrar in respect of the Class A Note (or each Class A Note, if there is more than one Class A Notes) or the Residual Interest Certificate and the Transaction Documents may be served. The Registrar initially designates the office of the Registrar at the Corporate Trust Office as its office for such purposes. The Registrar shall give prompt notice to the Trust Depositor, the Trustee and the Holders of any change in the location of the Register or any such office or agency.

Section 3.10 Payments from the Payment Account; Money for Payments To Be Held in Trust.

The Trustee shall make distributions to Holders from the Payment Account pursuant to Sections 5.02 and 6.04(c) and no amounts withdrawn by the Trustee from the Payment Account shall be distributed by the Trustee except as may be provided in Sections 5.02 and 6.04(c).

The Trustee shall hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided.

The Trustee shall also comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code”) with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) or the Residual Interest Certificate of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

Section 3.11 Transfer Restrictions.

The Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate may not be offered, transferred or sold except to (i) the Trust Depositor or an Affiliate thereof, (ii) to Qualified Institutional Buyers (“QIBs”) for purposes of Rule 144A under the Securities Act who are Qualified Purchasers for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) under the 1940 Act, and who are United States persons (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, or (iii) to any Person who qualifies for a similar exemption from (or an exception to) the requirements of the Securities Act and any other Applicable Law. The Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate may also be offered, transferred or sold to institutional “Accredited Investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 (a)(1)-(3) or (7) under the Securities Act who are Qualified Purchasers under Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act.

(a) The Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate have not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act, or any state securities law. No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or qualification. No transfer of any Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) or the Residual Interest Certificate shall be made if such transfer would require the Trust to register as an “investment company” under the 1940 Act. In the event that a transfer of a Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate is to be made, the transferee shall execute and deliver to the Trustee and Registrar a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto. In the event that such transfer is to be made in reliance on the availability of an exemption under the Securities Act, the Trustee may require the prospective transferee to provide an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or of the Trust.

(b) The Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Residual Interest Certificate may not be acquired or held by or with plan assets of any employee benefit plans, retirement arrangements, individual retirement accounts or ▇▇▇▇▇ plans subject to either Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or Section 4975 of the Code (a “Benefit Plan”) and any such purported transfer shall be null, void and not effective. Each transferee of a Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate shall be required to represent to the Trustee (a) that such transferee is not a Benefit Plan and is not acquiring such Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate with the plan assets of a Benefit Plan and (b) that if such Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate is subsequently deemed to be a plan asset of such a Benefit Plan, it will promptly dispose of such Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate.

(c) Each Class A Note and Residual Interest Certificate will bear the legends set forth in paragraph 6 of Exhibit C hereto.

(d) In accordance with Section 3.03, no transfer or exchange of a Residual Interest Certificate shall occur without the advance written consent of the Controlling Noteholder.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, other than to determine that any certification delivered to the Trustee or Registrar, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 3.11(a) hereof is substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, and the Trustee and Registrar shall have no personal liability to any Person in connection with any transfer or exchange or proposed or purported transfer or exchange (and/or registration thereof) of any Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate.

ARTICLE V

APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

Section 5.01 Establishment of Accounts.

(a) The Transaction Accounts. For the benefit of the Holders, the Trust Depositor shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trust two (2) deposit accounts with the Trustee (the “Payment Account” and the “Cash Reserve Account”, respectively), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Holders.

(b) The Trust shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Payment Account and the Cash Reserve Account and in all proceeds thereof. Except as provided in Section 3.10 or as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Payment Account and the Cash Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders. Upon notice to the Trustee from the Controlling Noteholder, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall be required to establish a new Payment Account or Cash Reserve Account (as applicable) acceptable to the Controlling Noteholder and, promptly after notifying each Holder of such new account, shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Payment Account or Cash Reserve Account, as the case may be.

(c) On or before the initial Purchase Date, the Trust Depositor will deposit an amount equal to the Required Cash Reserve Amount into the Cash Reserve Account. Prior to the Purchase Commitment Termination Date, if amounts held in the Cash Reserve Account are insufficient to pay all the expenses listed in Sections 5.02(a)(ii)-(iv) for two (2) consecutive Distribution Dates, then the Required Cash Reserve Amount shall be increased by the Controlling Noteholder so that such unpaid expenses may be paid on the following Distribution Date (with the consent of the Trust Depositor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and the Trust Depositor shall deposit into the Cash Reserve Account in immediately available funds the amount of any such increase. To the extent that funds are not available in the Payment Account to make the payments described in Sections 5.02(a)(ii)-(iv), the Trustee will draw funds from the Cash Reserve Account to make such distributions, provided that on the next Distribution Date the Cash Reserve Account shall be replenished from the Payment Account in accordance with Section 5.02(a)(i) prior to any other distribution from the Payment Account or the Cash Reserve Account.

(d) All moneys deposited from time to time in the Payment Account and the Cash Reserve Account pursuant to this Agreement are for the benefit of the Holders and any investments made with such moneys, including, without limitation, all income or other gains from such investments, are for the benefit of the Holders as provided hereunder. Funds on deposit in the Payment Account and Cash Reserve Account shall only be invested in Permitted Investments by the Trustee at the direction of the Controlling Noteholder. Income received on Permitted Investments purchased with funds from the Cash Reserve Account may be reinvested

(so long as the available funds in the Cash Reserve Account equal or exceed the Required Cash Reserve Amount) or deposited into the Cash Reserve Account. Income received on Permitted Investments purchased with funds from the Payment Account shall be distributed in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

(e) The Lockbox Account. For the benefit of the Holders, the Trust Depositor has established the Lockbox Account, bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Holders. Any Lockbox Bank must be approved by the Controlling Noteholder, and in maintaining the Lockbox Account, the Lockbox Bank shall agree in writing to comply with all instructions concerning the Lockbox Account originated by (i) prior to an Event of Default, the Trust Depositor, or (ii) after an Event of Default, the Controlling Noteholder (or the Trustee at the direction of the Controlling Noteholder), directing the disposition of funds in the Lockbox Account without the further consent of the Trust Depositor. Pursuant to this Agreement, the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, the Trust Depositor, the Originator and the Servicer, respectively, will ensure that all Scheduled Payments on the Assets (and/or other collections thereon) will be directed to the Lockbox Account. Pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, the funds in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily by the Lockbox Bank into the Payment Account.

Section 5.02 Priority of Payments.

(a) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the funds in the Payment Account (except to the extent representing Split Payments or Term Certain Periodic Payments) to the parties indicated below, in the following order of priority:

(i) to the Cash Reserve Account until the amount on deposit in such account is equal to the Required Cash Reserve Amount on such Distribution Date;

(ii) to the Trustee, the Trustee Fee due and owing on such Distribution Date, and any accrued and previously unpaid Trustee Fees;

(iii) to the Servicer, the Servicing Fee due and owing on such Distribution Date, and any accrued and previously unpaid Servicing Fees;

(iv) to the Back-up Servicer, the Back-up Servicing Fee due and owing on such Distribution Date, and any accrued and previously unpaid Back-up Servicing Fees;

(v) to the Class A Noteholder (or, if there is more than one Holder of Class A Notes, pro rata to such Holders based on their respective Percentage Interests), in the following order of priority: (a) accrued but unpaid Fixed Interest on the Class A Note held by such Holder, (b) principal on the Class A Note held by such Holder until (x) the Principal Amount for such Class A Note has been paid in full and (y) the Class A Target Condition is satisfied in respect of the Class A Note (or all Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note), then (c) any unpaid Contingent Interest on the Class A Note held by such Holder; and

(vi) to the Residual Interest Holder, all remaining amounts on deposit.

The Trustee shall make all such payments in the amounts set forth in the Monthly Report for such Distribution Date.

To the extent that funds are not available to make the payments indicated in clauses (ii)-(iv) above, the Trustee shall withdraw any available funds from the Cash Reserve Account to make such distributions, provided that on the next Distribution Date the Cash Reserve Account shall be replenished (up to the Required Cash Reserve Amount) from the Payment Account prior to any other distribution, as indicated in clause (i) above.

(b) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall promptly provide to the Controlling Noteholder (or, if there is more than one Holder of Class A Notes, to each such Holder) copies of the statement or statements provided to the Trustee by the Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement with respect to such Distribution Date, as well as any other reports or other information received by the Trustee from the Servicer.

(c) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to a Holder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable by the Trustee to such Holder in accordance with this Section 5.02. The Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable by the Trustee to the Holders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is required to be withheld by the Trust under Applicable Law (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by Applicable Law, pending the outcome of such proceedings); provided that the Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether any such tax is owed and may rely for such purposes on the written direction of the Trust Depositor or Servicer. The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Holder shall be treated as cash distributed by the Trust to such Holder at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Holder), the Trustee may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 5.02(c). In the event that a Holder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax or portion thereof, the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Holder in making such claim so long as such Holder agrees to reimburse the Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection therewith. The Holders shall supply the Trustee with Internal Revenue Service forms, with appropriate supporting documentation, and such other certificates, information or forms that the Trustee may request from time to time in connection with any withholding tax or the application for a refund thereof.

(d) After an Event of Default (of which the Controlling Noteholder gives notice to the Trustee or with respect to which the Controlling Noteholder directs the Trustee to act, as applicable, in accordance with the requirements of the definition of “Event of Default” in Article I hereof and Section 6.04), in the absence of any direction to the Trustee to the contrary by the Controlling Noteholder pursuant to Section 6.04, the Trustee shall continue making scheduled distributions pursuant to Section 5.02(a). In the event that the Controlling Noteholder has ordered the Trustee to liquidate the Collateral in accordance with Section 6.04, after such liquidation the Controlling Noteholder may direct the Trustee, at any time, to pay, in the following order of priority: (i) from the Cash Reserve Account, any and all expenses due under

Sections 5.02(a)(ii)-(iv), (ii) from the Payment Account (except to the extent representing Split Payments or Term Certain Periodic Payments), to the extent the distribution pursuant to the preceding clause (i) is insufficient to pay in full the expenses due under Sections 5.02(a)(ii)-(iv), any and all remaining expenses due under Sections 5.02(a)(ii)-(iv), as well as any other outstanding Trust expenses due and owing through the date of such liquidating distribution and (iii) from the Payment Account (except to the extent representing Split Payments or Term Certain Periodic Payments), to the Class A Noteholder (or, if there is more than one Class A Note, to the Holders of the Class A Notes, pro rata, based on the Percentage Interest of the Class A Notes held by such Holder) and the Residual Interest Holder, pro rata, based on the Liquidation Value of the Class A Note (or the Liquidation Value of the Percentage Interest of such Class A Note, if there is more than one Class A Note) and/or Residual Interest Certificate held by each such Holder; provided, however, if the distributions set forth above in this clause (iii) will not result in the Class A Target Condition being satisfied, then the amount distributable to the Class A Noteholder (or, if there is more than one Class A Note, the Holders of the Class A Notes, pro rata, based on the Percentage Interest of the Class A Notes held by such Holder), shall be increased and the amount distributable to the Residual Interest Holder shall be decreased accordingly until the Class A Target Condition is satisfied. Any amounts remaining in the Cash Reserve Account after the distribution contemplated by Section 5.02(d)(i) shall be distributed by the Trustee to the Residual Interest Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, any funds in any of the Accounts in respect of Split Payments or Term Certain Periodic Payments shall only be distributable in accordance with Section 5.02(e).

(e) The Servicer, pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, shall direct the Trustee to promptly remit (i) to the Originator, any funds in the Payment Account or that come into the Trustee’s possession in respect of Term Certain Periodic Payments and (ii) to the Split Payment Account, any funds in the Payment Account or that come into the Trustee’s possession in respect of Split Payments (it being understood and agreed that pursuant to the Servicing Agreement the Servicer, or the Back-up Servicer as its duly authorized designee, shall remit or cause to be remitted all amounts in respect of Split Payments in accordance with Section 5.01(f) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement).

(f) On the Class A Payoff Date, the Trustee shall distribute all funds remaining in the Cash Reserve Account (after any required payments from such account on such Distribution Date to pay the expenses listed in Sections 5.02(a)(ii)-(iv), to the extent not previously paid) to the Residual Interest Holder.

Section 5.03 Method of Payment.

To the extent that provisions of this Agreement restrict or eliminate the duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities of the Trustee or any other Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, such provisions are agreed by the parties hereto and any Holder by its acceptance of any Class A Note or Residual Interest Certificate, as applicable, to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustee and such other persons.

(b) The Trustee shall not be required to take any action or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any Transaction Document if the Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in any personal liability on the part of the Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any Transaction Document or is otherwise contrary to Applicable Law.

(c) Whenever the Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or under any Transaction Document to which the Trust is a party, the Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Controlling Noteholder requesting instruction from the Controlling Noteholder as to the course of action to be adopted and stating that if the Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction from the Controlling Noteholder within ten (10) Business Days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) the Trustee may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Holders and shall have no personal liability to any Person for such action or inaction. To the extent the Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any written instruction received by the Trustee from the Controlling Noteholder, the Trustee shall not be personally liable on account of such action or inaction to any Person.

specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) the Trustee may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party as the Trustee shall deem to be in the best interests of the Holders and shall have no personal liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

To the extent that the Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received from the Controlling Noteholder, the Trustee shall not be personally liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If the Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction from the Controlling Noteholder within ten (10) Business Days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party as the Trustee shall deem to be in the best interests of the Holders, and shall have no personal liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

The Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party or any document contemplated hereby or thereby, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Trust is a party against the Trustee.

No Holder shall direct the Trustee to take any action that would cause the Trustee to violate the provisions of this Section 6.05.

(c) Notice of any termination of the Trust, specifying the Distribution Date upon which each Holder entitled under Section 5.02 to receive funds from the Trust on such

Distribution Date shall surrender its Class A Note and/or the Residual Interest Certificate to the Trustee for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given by the Trustee by letter to Holders mailed within five (5) Business Days of receipt by the Trustee of notice of such termination from the Servicer stating, as set forth in such notice from the Servicer, (i) the Distribution Date upon or with respect to which final payment of such Class A Note and/or the Residual Interest Certificate shall be made upon presentation and surrender to the Trustee of such Class A Note and/or the Residual Interest Certificate at the office of the Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender to the Trustee of such Class A Note and/or the Residual Interest Certificate at the office of the Trustee therein specified. The Trustee shall give such notice to the Registrar (if other than the Trustee) at the time such notice is given by the Trustee to Holders. Upon presentation and surrender to the Trustee of the Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and/or the Residual Interest Certificate, the Trustee shall cause to be distributed to the surrendering Holder or Holders all amounts distributable to such Holder or Holders (if any) on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.02.

In the event that all of the Holders entitled to receive a distribution on the final Distribution Date shall not surrender to the Trustee the Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and/or the Residual Interest Certificate for cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the above mentioned notice, the Trustee shall give a second notice to the remaining Holders to surrender the Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and/or the Residual Interest Certificate for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one (1) year after such second notice the Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and/or the Residual Interest Certificate held by Holders entitled to receive a distribution on the final Distribution Date shall not have been surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact such remaining Holders concerning surrender of the Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and/or the Residual Interest Certificate, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement. Any funds remaining in the Trust after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by the Trustee to the Trust Depositor. Holders shall thereafter look solely to the Trust Depositor as general unsecured creditors.

(d) Upon the winding up of the Trust and payment of all liabilities in accordance with Section 3808 of the Statutory Trust Statute, the Servicer or the Controlling Noteholder shall direct the Trustee to cause the Certificate of Trust to be cancelled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust Statute. Thereupon, the Trust and this Agreement (other than the rights, benefits, protections, privileges and immunities of the Trustee and the Trustee) shall terminate.

Structured Settlement Trust 2011-A

RESIDUAL INTEREST CERTIFICATE

Evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust, as defined below, the property of which includes primarily the Assets transferred to the Trust by Contingent Settlements I, LLC.

(This Residual Interest Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of the Trust Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee (each as defined below) (as such or in its individual capacity) or any of their respective affiliates, except to the extent described below.)

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CONTINGENT SETTLEMENTS I, LLC is the registered owner of the nonassessable, fully paid, 100% beneficial ownership interest in STRUCTURED SETTLEMENT TRUST 2011-A (the “Trust”) formed by Contingent Settlements I, LLC.

The Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2011 (and as it may be further amended, modified, restated, waived, substituted or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Trust Agreement”), between Contingent Settlements I, LLC, as trust depositor (the “Trust Depositor”) and Wilmington Trust Company, as Trustee of the Trust (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth below and a Certificate of Trust filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 12, 2011. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement.

This Residual Interest Certificate is a duly authorized issue of Structured Settlement Trust 2011-A (herein called the “Residual Interest Certificate”). This Residual Interest Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the holder of this Residual Interest Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such holder is bound.

Under the Trust Agreement, there will be distributed on the seventeenth (17^th) day of each month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) (each, a “Distribution Date”), commencing in June 2011, to the Person in whose name this Residual Interest Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the applicable Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), such distributions as are specified in Section 5.02 of the Trust Agreement. Such distributions will be made as provided in the Trust Agreement by the Trustee by wire transfer or check mailed to the Holder of record in the Register without the presentation or surrender of this Residual Interest Certificate or the making of any notation hereon. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Residual Interest Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender by the Holder of this Residual Interest Certificate at the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Trustee.

It is intended that the Class A Note (or the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) be treated as indebtedness and that this Residual Interest Certificate be treated as the sole beneficial interest in the Trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For so long as this

A-1-3

Residual Interest Certificate is beneficially owned by one Holder, it is intended that the Trust be treated either as a grantor trust under subpart E of part I of subchapter J of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or as an entity disregarded as separate from such Holder, and that this Residual Interest Certificate be treated as representing an undivided ownership interest in the Trust Estate for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event that this Residual Interest Certificate is beneficially owned by more than one Holder, it is intended that the Trust be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Holder of this Residual Interest Certificate covenants and agrees that such Holder will not, prior to the date which is one year and one day (or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) after the payment in full of each Class A Note and this Residual Interest Certificate, institute against the Trust or the Trust Estate, or join in any institution against the Trust 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 Class A Note (or Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note), this Residual Interest Certificate, the Trust Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Residual Interest Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee or the Registrar, by manual signature, this Residual Interest Certificate shall not entitle the Holder hereof to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

THIS RESIDUAL INTEREST CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

[REVERSE OF RESIDUAL INTEREST CERTIFICATE]

This Residual Interest Certificate does not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the Trust Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee or any affiliates of any of them and no recourse may be had by the Holder against such parties or their assets, except as expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust Agreement or the Transaction Documents. In addition, this Residual Interest Certificate is not guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality and is limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries with respect to the Assets (and certain other amounts), all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Transaction Documents. A copy of each of the Transaction Documents may be examined by any Holder upon written request during normal business hours at the principal office of the Trust Depositor and at such other places, if any, designated by the Trust Depositor.

The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions provided therein, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Trust Depositor and the rights of the Holders under the Trust Agreement at any time, by the Trust Depositor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holder of the Class A Note (or the Holders of the Class A Notes, if there is more than one Class A Note) and the Holder of this Residual Interest Certificate. Any such consent by the Holder of this Residual Interest Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such holder and on all future holders of this Residual Interest Certificate (provided that the transfer to such future Holder is approved by the Controlling Noteholder as provided in the Trust Agreement) and of any Residual Interest Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Residual Interest Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holder of this Residual Interest Certificate.

As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Residual Interest Certificate (provided that any transfer to a new Holder is approved by the Controlling Noteholder as provided in the Trust Agreement) is registerable in the Register upon surrender by the Holder of this Residual Interest Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Registrar, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Registrar duly executed by the holder hereof or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Residual Interest Certificate evidencing the same interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee. The initial Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is Wilmington Trust Company.

This Residual Interest Certificate is issuable only as a registered Residual Interest Certificate, without a coupon. As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Residual Interest Certificate is exchangeable for a new Residual Interest Certificate, if requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange (provided that any transfer to a new Holder is approved by the Controlling Noteholder as provided in the Trust Agreement), but the Trustee or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

A-1-6

The Trustee, the Registrar and any agent of the Trustee or the Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Residual Interest Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Trustee, the Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

This Residual Interest Certificate may not be acquired directly or indirectly by, or held by or with plan assets of any employee benefit plans, retirement arrangements, individual retirement accounts or ▇▇▇▇▇ plans subject to either Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. By accepting and holding this Residual Interest Certificate, the Holder hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not any of the foregoing entities.

This Residual Interest Certificate may not be transferred to any person who is not a U.S. Person, as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended.

Each purchaser of this Residual Interest Certificate shall be required, prior to purchasing such Residual Interest Certificate (and provided that such purchase has been approved by the Controlling Noteholder as provided in the Trust Agreement), to execute the Purchaser’s Representation and Warranty Letter in the form attached to the Trust Agreement as Exhibit C.

The obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon (i) the payment to Holders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Trust Agreement and the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust and (ii) the written consent of the remaining Holders.
