SECTION 4.08 Unconditional Right of Series 1999-1 Noteholders to
Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in the
Master Agreement, this Series 1999-1 Supplement or the Series 1999-1 Notes other
than the provisions hereof limiting the right to recover amounts due on the
Series 1999-1 Notes to recoveries from the property of the Series 1999-1 Trust
Estate, the holder of any Series 1999-1 Note shall have the absolute and
unconditional right to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such
Series 1999-1 Note on the related stated maturity date thereof, and to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Series 1999-1 Noteholder.
SECTION 4.09 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any
Series 1999-1 Noteholder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under the Master Agreement, this Series 1999-1 Supplement or the Series
1999-1 Notes and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Series 1999-1
Noteholder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such
proceeding, the Obligors, the Trustee and the Series 1999-1 Noteholders shall be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Series 1999-1
Noteholders continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
SECTION 4.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise
provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost, or stolen Series 1999-1 Notes, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to the Series 1999-1 Noteholders is intended to be
exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the
extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
appropriate right or remedy.
SECTION 4.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the
Trustee or of any holder of any Series 1999-1 Note to exercise any right or
remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy

Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee
32
38
or to the Series 1999-1 Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Series 1999-1
Noteholders, as the case may be.

majority] of the then Outstanding Note Principal Balance shall have the right to
direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee with respect to the Series 1999-1 Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(i) no such direction shall be in conflict with any rule of
law or with the Master Agreement, this Series 1999-1 Supplement or the
Series 1999-1 Notes;
(ii) (ii) the Trustee shall not be required to follow any such
direction which the Trustee reasonably believes might result in any
personal liability on the part of the Trustee for which the Trustee is
not adequately indemnified; and
(iii) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by
the Trustee which is not inconsistent with any such direction; provided
that the Trustee shall give notice of any such action to each
Noteholder.
SECTION 4.13 Waiver of Events of Default.
(a) The Holders of [a majority] of the then Outstanding Note Principal
Balance may, by one or more instruments in writing, waive any Event of Default
hereunder and its consequences, except a continuing Event of Default:
(i) in respect of the payment of the principal of or premium
or interest on any Series 1999-1 Note (which may only be waived by the
holder of such Note); or
(ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot
be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each
Outstanding Series 1999-1 Note affected (which only may be waived by
the holders of all Outstanding Series 1999-1 Notes affected).
(b) A copy of each waiver pursuant to subsection 4.13(a) shall be
furnished by the Obligors to the Trustee. Upon any such waiver, such Event of
Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been cured, for every
purpose of the Master Agreement, this Series 1999-1 Supplement or the Series
1999-1 Notes; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event
of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
SECTION 4.14 Undertaking for Costs. All parties hereto agree (and each
Series 1999-1 Noteholder by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have
agreed) that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under the Master Agreement, this Series
1999-1 Supplement or the Series 1999-1 Notes, or in any suit against the Trustee
for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any
party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and
that such court may in its discretion
33
39
assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this
Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit
instituted by any Series 1999-1 Noteholder, or group of Series 1999-1
Noteholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the then Outstanding Note
Principal Balance of the Series 1999-1 Notes, or to any suit instituted by any
Series 1999-1 Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of
or interest on any Series 1999-1 Note on or after the maturity date for such
payments.

(to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they will not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of the
Master Agreement, this Series 1999-1 Supplement or the Series 1999-1 Notes; and
the Originator (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted.
SECTION 4.16 Sale of Series 1999-1 Trust Estate.
(a) The power to effect any sale of any portion of the Series 1999-1
Trust Estate pursuant to Section 4.03 shall not be exhausted by any one or more

shall continue unimpaired until the entire Series 1999-1 Trust Estate shall have
been sold or all amounts payable on the Series 1999-1 Notes shall have been

Section 4.12, postpone any public sale by public announcement made at the time

such sale at least two weeks in advance of such sale which notice shall specify
the date, time and location of such sale.

any private sale sell to a third party the Series 1999-1 Trust Estate, or any
portion thereof unless,

Principal Balance consent to or direct the Trustee in writing to make

of all amounts due to the Trustee hereunder and the entire Outstanding

to purchase all or any portion of the Series 1999-1 Trust Estate at a private

thereon for credit in the amount that shall, upon distribution of the
net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, and the Series 1999-1

sale; and
(iv) no purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound
to ascertain the Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of
any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.
(d) The method, manner, time, place and terms of any sale of all or any
portion of the Series 1999-1 Trust Estate shall be commercially reasonable.
