(i) Receivables originated by such Originator from time to time prior to but not including the date on which an Early Originator Termination occurs pursuant to and as indicated in the respective Originator Daily Report and delivered or transmitted electronically or by telecopier to the Purchaser on the applicable date of sale;

(ii) the Related Property;

(iii) all Collections in respect of the Receivables;

(iv) all rights (including rescission, replevin or reclamation) of such Originator relating to any Receivable or arising therefrom; and

(v) all proceeds of or payments in respect of any and all of the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) (including Collections).

Such property described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (v) shall be referred to collectively herein as the "Receivable Assets" and shall be considered to be assets that have been sold, transferred, assigned, set over and otherwise conveyed by the applicable Originator to the Purchaser upon the delivery to the Purchaser and acceptance by the Purchaser of the applicable Originator Daily Report (which Originator Daily Report shall not be signed by or on behalf of the Purchaser or any of the Originators provided that such Originator Daily Report shall be deemed accepted unless expressly rejected by the Purchaser in writing on the date of the delivery of the applicable Originator Daily Report to the Purchaser) (such date of acceptance hereinafter referred to as the "Sale Date").

(b) Each of the Originators and the Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that it is their mutual intent that (a) every transfer of Receivable Assets to the Purchaser hereunder shall be an absolute, unconditional, "true" conveyance and not a mere granting of a security interest to secure a loan to or from the Purchaser, (b) the Originators shall not retain any interest in the Receivable Assets after the sale thereof hereunder, and (c) the Receivables originated by each Originator shall not be part of such Originator's insolvency or bankruptcy estate in the event an insolvency or delinquency proceeding or a bankruptcy or other action shall be commenced or filed by or against such Originator under any insolvency or bankruptcy law. In the event, however, that notwithstanding such intent and agreement, such transfers are deemed by any relevant Governmental Authority for any reason whatsoever, whether for limited purposes or otherwise, to be a security interest granted to secure indebtedness of such Originator, such Originator shall be deemed to have granted to the Purchaser a first priority perfected security interest under Article 9 of the UCC in the applicable jurisdiction in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under, in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located, the Receivables originated or purchased by such Originator and the other Receivable Assets related to such Receivables and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, securing the repayment of the amounts paid hereunder, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, together with such other obligations or interests as may arise hereunder in favor of the parties hereto.

(c) In connection with any transfer, assignment, conveyance and sale pursuant to subsection 2.01(a), each Originator hereby agrees to record and file, or cause to be recorded and filed, at its own expense, financing statements or other similar filings (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements or other similar filings when applicable), (i) with respect to the Receivables and (ii) with respect to any other Receivable Assets for which an assignment or the creation of a security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC or other similar applicable laws, legislation or statute) may be perfected under the applicable UCC or other applicable laws, legislation or statute by such filing, in each case meeting the requirements of applicable law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect and maintain the perfection of the transfer, assignment, conveyance and sale of such Receivables and any other Receivable Assets related to such Receivables to the Purchaser, and to deliver to the Purchaser (a) on or prior to the Effective Date a photocopy, certified by a Responsible Officer of such Originator to be a true and correct copy, of each such financing statement or other filing to be made on or prior to the Effective Date and (b) within ten (10) days after the Effective Date a file-stamped copy or certified statement of such financing statement (or the similar filing) or other evidence of such filing.

(d) In connection with the transfer, assignment, conveyance and sale pursuant to subsection 2.01(a), each Originator agrees at its own expense, with respect to the Receivables, that it will, as agent of the Purchaser, (A) (i) on the Effective Date and thereafter, identify on its extraction records relating to Receivables from its master database of receivables, that the Receivables and all other Receivable Assets related thereto have been transferred, assigned, conveyed and sold to the Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) acknowledge, deliver or transmit or cause to be delivered or transmitted to the Company and Master Servicer an Originator Daily Report containing at least the information specified in Schedule 1 hereto as to all such Receivables, as of the applicable date of sale and (B) to (i) on the Effective Date and thereafter, to identify on it extraction records relating to Receivables from its master database of receivables, that all such Receivables and all other Receivable Assets related thereto have been transferred, assigned, conveyed and sold to the Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) acknowledge, deliver or transmit or cause to be delivered or transmitted to the Purchaser and the Master Servicer an Originator Daily Report containing at least the information specified in Schedule 1 hereto as to all such Receivables, as of the applicable date of sale.

(e) All Receivables purchased by the Purchaser hereunder shall be without recourse to, or any representation or warranty of any kind (express or implied) by, the Originators except as otherwise specifically provided herein. The foregoing sale, assignment, transfer and conveyance does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by the Originators of any obligation of the Originators or any other person in connection with the Receivables or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any obligation any Obligor.

2.02. Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price payable by the Purchaser to an Originator (the "Originator Purchase Price") for Receivables and other Receivable Assets on any Seller Payment Date under this Agreement shall be equal to the product of (i) the aggregate outstanding Principal Amount of Eligible Receivables as set forth in the applicable Originator Daily Report and (ii) one (1) minus the Discounted Percentage.

2.03. Payment of Purchase Price. Purchaser shall pay the Originator Purchase Price for each Receivable and other Receivable Assets (net of the deductions referred to in Section 2.03(b)) on each date of sale related to such purchased Receivable (each such day, an "Originator Payment Date").

(a) The Originator Purchase Price (net of the deductions referred to in Section 2.03(b)) shall be paid by Purchaser to the applicable Originator or to such accounts or such Persons as the applicable Originator may direct in writing (which direction may consist of standing instructions provided by the applicable Originator that shall remain in effect until changed by the applicable Originator in writing), on each Originator Payment Date.

(b) The Purchaser shall deduct from the Originator Purchase Price otherwise payable to the Originator on any Originator Payment Date, any Originator Dilution Adjustment Payments, Originator Adjustment Payments or Originator Indemnification Payments pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.06(a) or 2.06(b), respectively.

(c) All cash payments under this Agreement shall be made not later than 3:30 p.m. London time on the date specified therefor in same day funds.

(d) Whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

2.04. No Repurchase. Subject to Section 2.06, the Originators shall not have any right or obligation under this Agreement, by implication or otherwise, to repurchase from the Purchaser any Receivables or other Receivable Assets related to such Receivables or to rescind or otherwise retroactively effect any purchase of any such Receivables or other Receivable Assets related to such Receivables after the date of sale relating thereto; provided that the foregoing shall not be interpreted

to limit the right of the Purchaser to receive an Originator Dilution Adjustment Payment, an Originator Adjustment Payment or an Originator Indemnification Payment.

2.05. Rebates, Adjustments, Returns, Reductions and Modifications. From time to time the Originators may make a Dilution Adjustment to a Receivable in accordance with this Section 2.05 and Section 6.02; provided that if an Originator cancels an invoice related to such Receivable, either (i) such invoice must be replaced, or caused to be replaced, by such Originator with an invoice relating to the same transaction of equal or greater Principal Amount on the same Business Day that such cancellation was made, (ii) such invoice must be replaced, or caused to be replaced, by such Originator with an invoice relating to the same transaction of a lesser Principal Amount on the same Business Day that such cancellation was made and such Originator must make an Originator Dilution Adjustment Payment, to the Purchaser, in an amount equal to the difference between such cancelled and replacement invoices or (iii) such Originator must make an Originator Dilution Adjustment Payment, to the Purchaser in an amount equal to the full value of such cancelled invoice pursuant to this Section 2.05. The Originators agree to pay to the Purchaser, on the Sale Date immediately succeeding the date any Dilution Adjustment is granted or made pursuant hereto, the amount of any such Dilution Adjustment (an "Originator Dilution Adjustment Payment"). The amount of any Dilution Adjustment shall be set forth in the first Originator Daily Report prepared after the date on which such Dilution Adjustment was granted or made.

2.06. Payments in Respect of Ineligible Receivables and Originator Indemnification Payments.

(a) Adjustment Payment Obligation. In the event of a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.02(a), 4.02(b), 4.02(c), 4.02(d) or 4.02(f) in respect of any Receivable sold hereunder or if the Purchaser's interest in any Receivable is not a full legal and beneficial ownership, the respective Originator shall, within 30 days of the earlier of its knowledge or receipt of written notice of such breach or defect from the Purchaser, remedy the matter giving rise to such breach of representation or warranty if such matter is capable of being remedied. If such matter is not capable of being remedied or is not so remedied within said period of 30 days, such Originator upon request of the Purchaser shall repurchase the relevant Receivable from the Purchaser at a repurchase price (without duplication of any Originator Dilution Adjustment Payments made pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof), equal to the original Principal Amount of such Receivable less Collections received by the Purchaser in respect of such Receivable (the "Originator Adjustment Payment"), which payment shall be in the same currency as such Receivable. Upon the payment of an Originator Adjustment Payment hereunder, the Purchaser shall automatically agree to pay to such Originator all Collections received subsequent to such repurchase with respect to such repurchased Receivable. The parties agree that if there is a breach of any of the representations and warranties of any Originator contained in Section 4.02(a), 4.02(b) or 4.02(c) in respect of or concerning any Receivable, the respective Originator's obligation to pay the Originator Adjustment Payment under this Section 2.06 is a reasonable pre-estimate of loss and not a penalty (and neither the Purchaser nor any other person or entity having an interest in this Agreement through the Purchaser shall be entitled to any other remedies as a consequence of any such breach).

(b) Special Indemnification. In addition to its obligations under Section 8.02 hereunder, each Originator agrees to pay, indemnify and hold harmless (without duplication of any Originator Dilution Adjustment Payments made pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof) the Purchaser from any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Purchaser in any way relating to or arising out of (i) any Receivable becoming subject to any defense, dispute, offset or counterclaim of any kind (other than as expressly permitted by this Agreement or the Pooling Agreement or any Supplement) or (ii) such Originator breaching any covenant contained herein with respect to any Receivable (each of the foregoing events or circumstances being an "Originator Indemnification Event", and such Receivable (or a portion

thereof) ceasing to be an Eligible Receivable on the date on which such Originator Indemnification Event occurs. The amount of such indemnification shall be equal to the original Principal Amount of such Receivable less Collections received by the Purchaser in respect of such Receivable (the "Originator Indemnification Payment"). Such payment shall be made on or prior to the 10th Business Day after the day the Purchaser requests such payment or such Originator obtains knowledge thereof unless such Originator Indemnification Event shall have been cured on or before such 10th Business Day; provided, however, that in the event that (x) an Originator Termination Event with respect to an Originator has occurred and is continuing or (y) the Purchaser shall be required to make a payment with respect to such Receivable pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Pooling Agreement and the Purchaser has insufficient funds to make such a payment, such Originator shall make such payment immediately. The Purchaser shall have no further remedy against such Originator in respect of such an Originator Indemnification Event unless such Originator fails to make an Originator Indemnification Payment on or prior to such 10th Business Day or on such earlier day in accordance with the proviso set forth in this subsection 2.06(b). Upon an Originator Indemnification Payment, the Purchaser shall automatically agree to pay to such Originator all Collections received subsequent to such payment with respect to the Receivable in respect of which an Originator Indemnification Payment is made.

(c) The Originators shall from time to time on demand pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to the amount (if any) of funds required to be paid or deposited by the Purchaser in respect of Stamp Duty pursuant to Sections 2.07(q) through 2.07(t) of the Pooling Agreement.

2.07. Certain Charges. Each Originator and the Purchaser hereby agree that late charge revenue, reversals of discounts, other fees and charges and other similar items, whenever created, accrued in respect of Receivables shall be the property of the Purchaser notwithstanding the occurrence of an Early Originator Termination and all Collections with respect thereto shall continue to be allocated and treated as Collections in respect of the Receivables transferred, conveyed, assigned and sold to the Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.01(a) hereof.

2.08. Certain Allocations. Each Originator, as Local Servicer, hereby agrees that if such Originator can attribute a Collection to a specific Obligor and a specific Receivable, then such Collection shall be applied to pay such Receivable of such Obligor; provided, however, that if such Originator cannot attribute a Collection to a specific Receivable, then such Collection shall be applied to pay the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of maturity of such Receivables, beginning with the Receivable that has been outstanding the longest and ending with the Receivable that has been outstanding the shortest.

7. TERMINATION EVENTS

7.01. Originator Termination Events. If any of the following events (herein called "Originator Termination Events") shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any Existing Originator or, on or after the New Originator Effective Date, with respect to the New Originator:

(a) an Originator shall fail to pay any amount due hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of two (2) Business Days from the earlier to occur of (i) the date upon which a Responsible Officer of such Originator obtains actual knowledge of such failure or (ii) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to such Originator by the Company, the Purchaser or the Trustee or (B) to the Purchaser, to the Company, to the Trustee and to such Originator by holders of Investor Certificates evidencing 25% or more of the Aggregate Invested Amount; or

(b) an Originator shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant or agreement applicable to it contained herein (other than as specified in paragraph (a) of this Section 7.01) that has a Material Adverse Effect with respect to it and that continues unremedied until ten (10) Local Business Days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied shall have been given (A) to such Originator by the Purchaser, the Company or the Trustee or (B) to the Purchaser, to the Company, to the Trustee and to such Originator by holders of Investor Certificates evidencing 25% or more of the Aggregate Invested Amount, provided that if such failure may be cured and such Originator is diligently pursing such cure, such event shall not constitute an Originator Termination Event for an additional thirty (30) days; or

(c) any representation or warranty made by such Originator in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made, and which continues unremedied until ten (10) Local Business Days after the date on which written notice thereof, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to such Originator by the Purchaser, the Company or the Trustee or (B) to the Purchaser, to the Company, to the Trustee and to such Originator by holders of Investor Certificates evidencing 25% or more of the Aggregate Invested Amount, provided that if such incorrectness may be cured and such Originator is diligently pursuing such cure, such event shall not constitute an Originator Termination Event for an additional thirty (30) days and provided further that an Originator Termination Event shall not be deemed to have occurred under this paragraph (c) based upon a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4.02 if such Originator shall have complied with the provisions of Section 2.06 in respect thereof; or

(d) an Originator has been terminated as Local Servicer with respect to the Receivables originated by it, and not replaced as a Local Servicer by an affiliate of Huntsman International, following a Master Servicer Default under the Servicing Agreement,

then, in the case of any Originator Termination Event, so long as such Originator Termination Event shall be continuing, the Purchaser shall terminate its obligation to accept a sale of Receivables from such Originator and such Originator shall be terminated as an Originator upon 10 days written notice (the date on which such notice becomes effective, the "Originator Termination Date") to such Originator (any such termination, an "Early Originator Termination"); provided that such removal or termination shall be in accordance with Section 2.10 of the Pooling Agreement.

7.02. Program Termination Events. If any of the following events (herein called "Program Termination Events") shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to an Originator:

(a) an Insolvency Event shall have occurred with respect to an Originator; or

(b) there shall have occurred and be continuing (i) an Early Amortization Event set forth in Section 7.01 of the Pooling Agreement or (ii) the Amortization Period with respect to all Outstanding Series; or

(c) a notice of Lien shall have been filed by the PBGC against an Originator under Section 412(n) of the Code or Section 302(f) of ERISA for a failure to make a required installment or other payment to a plan to which Section 412(n) of the Code or Section 302(f) of ERISA applies unless there shall have been delivered to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies proof of release of such Lien; or

(d) a Federal (or equivalent) tax notice of Lien, in an amount equal to or greater than $500,000, shall have been filed against an Originator unless there shall have been delivered to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies proof of release of such Lien; or

(e) any Originator Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to an Originator that, as of the last Monthly Settlement Report, had originated more than 10% of the Aggregate Receivables Amount reflected on such report; or

(f) an Originator Termination Event shall have occurred but such Originator has not been terminated within 10 calendar days in accordance with Section 2.10 of the Pooling Agreement.

then, after the expiration of any applicable cure period, the obligation of the Purchaser to accept sales shall terminate without notice (such date of termination, the "Program Termination Date"), and there shall be an Early Amortization Event pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Pooling Agreement.

7.03. Remedies.

(a) If an Originator Termination Event or Program Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Purchaser (and its assignees) shall have all of the rights and remedies provided to an owner of accounts under applicable law in respect thereto.

(b) Each Originator agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of Program Termination Event as described in subsection 7.02(a) or (b)(i):

(i) the Purchaser (and its assignees) shall have the right at any time to notify, or require that such Originator, at its expense, notify, the respective Obligors of the Company's ownership of the Receivables and other Receivable Assets and may direct that payment of all amounts due or to become due under the Receivables be made directly to the relevant current Concentration Accounts;

(ii) the Purchaser (and its assignees) shall have the right to (A) xxx for collection on any Receivables or (B) sell any Receivables to any Person for a price that is acceptable to the Purchaser. If required by the applicable UCC (or analogous provisions of any other similar law, statute or legislation applicable to the Receivables), the Purchaser (and its assignees) may offer to sell any Receivable to any Person, together, at its option, with all other Receivables created by the same Obligor. Any Receivable sold hereunder (other than pursuant to the Pooling Agreement) shall cease to be a Receivable for all purposes under this Agreement as of the effective date of such sale;

(iii) such Originator in such capacity or in its capacity as Local Servicer, shall, upon the Purchaser's (or its assignees') written request and at such Originator's expense, (A) assemble all of its documents, instruments and other records (including credit files and computer tapes or disks) that (1) evidence or will evidence or record Receivables and (2) are otherwise necessary or desirable to effect Collections of such Receivables including (i) Receivable specific information including, when applicable, invoice number, invoice due date, invoice value, purchase order reference, shipping date, shipping address, shipping terms, copies of

delivery notes, bills of lading, insurance documents, copies of letters of credit, bills of exchange or promissory notes, other security documents, and (ii) Obligor specific information, including copy of the Contract, correspondence file and details of any security held (collectively, the "Originator Documents") and (B) deliver such Originator Documents to the Purchaser or its designee at a place designated by the Purchaser. In recognition of each Originator's need to have access to any Originator Documents which may be transferred to the Purchaser hereunder, whether as a result of its continuing business relationship with any Obligor for Receivables or as a result of its responsibilities as Local Servicer, the Purchaser hereby grants to each Originator a license to access the Originator Documents transferred by such Originator to the Purchaser and to access any such transferred computer software in connection with any activity arising in the ordinary course of such Originator's business or in performance of such Originator's duties as Local Servicer; provided that such Originator shall not disrupt or otherwise interfere with the Purchaser's use of and access to such Originator Documents and its computer software during such license period; and

(iv) upon written request of the Purchaser, each Originator will (A) deliver to the Purchaser all licenses, rights, computer programs, related material, computer tapes, disks, cassettes and data necessary for the immediate collection of the Receivables by the Purchaser, with or without the participation of such Originator (excluding software licenses which by their terms are not permitted to be so delivered; provided that each Originator shall use reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the relevant licensor to such delivery but shall not be required, to the extent it has an ownership interest in any electronic records, computer software or licenses, to transfer, assign, set-over or otherwise convey such ownership interests to the Purchaser) and (B) make such arrangements with respect to the collection of the Receivables as may be reasonably required by the Purchaser.

8. MISCELLANEOUS

8.01. Payments. All payments to be made by a party ("payor") hereunder shall be made in Dollars on the applicable due date and in immediately available funds to the recipient's ("payee") account set forth in Schedule 6 of this Agreement or to such other account as may be specified by such payee from time to time in a notice to such payor. Wherever any payment to be made under this Agreement shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

8.02. Costs and Expenses. Each Originator agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Purchaser for all of its out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith and therewith, the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, (b) to pay or reimburse the Purchaser for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Purchaser, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold the Purchaser harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay caused by such Originator in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of, any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold the Purchaser harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (i) which may at any time be

imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Purchaser in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or in connection herewith or any action taken or omitted by the Purchaser under or in connection with any of the foregoing (all such other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements being herein called "Originator Indemnified Liabilities") or (ii) which would not have been imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Purchaser but for its having acquired the Receivables hereunder; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not be available to the extent that such Originator Indemnified Liabilities are finally judicially determined to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Purchaser. The agreements of each Originator in this Section 8.02 shall survive the collection of all Receivables, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder.

8.03. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Originators and the Purchaser and their respective successors (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) and permitted assigns. Each Originator agrees that it will not assign or transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. Each Originator acknowledges that the Purchaser shall grant a Participation and a security interest in all of its rights hereunder to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling Agreement. Each Originator further agrees that, in respect of its obligations hereunder, it will act at the direction of and in accordance with all requests and instructions from the Trustee until all amounts due to the Investor Certificateholders are paid in full.

8.04. Additional Originators. Huntsman International may admit as an Originator under this Agreement any member of the Huntsman Group, provided such member is formed or organized in a State of the United States of America (such party or parties shall be referred to as an "Additional Originator") and such member is a wholly-owned Subsidiary (directly or indirectly) of Huntsman International. The admission of such Additional Originator shall be subject to the following conditions:

(a) the Company shall receive the documents and information specified in Section 3.01 in respect of the Additional Originator, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Company where reference to the "Effective Date" shall be the date of admission as an Additional Originator;

(b) the Additional Contributor shall execute and deliver to the Company a duly completed agreement as set out in Schedule 7 (the "Admission of Additional Originator");

(d) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied;

(e) receipt by the Trustee and the Funding Agent and any agent for the Certificateholders of a certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that after giving effect to the addition of such Additional Originator, the Aggregate Allocated Receivables Amount shall equal the Aggregate Target Receivables Amount on the date of such admission; and

(f) the Trustee shall have established on or more Collection Accounts and executed a Collection Account Agreement with respect to the Collections received on the Receivables to be sold by such Additional Originator and contributed by the Company to the Trust;

provided, that satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition shall not be a condition precedent to admission as an Additional Originator if:

(i) Huntsman International provides the Trustee with an Officer's certificate certifying that such Additional Originator is in the same line of business as the existing Originators; and

(ii) immediately prior to giving effect to such addition, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (I) the aggregate Principal Amount of what would constitute all Eligible Receivables of such requesting Additional Originator at the end of the immediately preceding Business Day if it were an Additional Originator plus the aggregate Principal Amount of Eligible Receivables of all Additional Originators admitted during the then current calendar year, minus the amount that would constitute the Overconcentration Amount applicable to all such Receivables on such date if such requesting Additional Originator were an Additional Originator to (II) the Aggregate Receivables Amount on such date (before giving effect to such addition), is less than 10%.

Upon satisfaction of the above conditions, the Additional Originator shall be deemed to be a party to this Agreement, and for all purposes of the Transaction Documents shall be deemed to be a "U.S. Originator" and "Originator". The Additional Originator shall be under the same obligations towards each of the other parties to this Agreement as if it had been an original party hereto as an "Originator".

A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Purchaser.

8.13. Submission to Jurisdiction; Service of Process.

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court, any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and any claim based on its immunity from suit. Nothing in this Section 8.12(a) shall affect the right of any party hereto to bring any action or proceeding against another or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

(b) EACH PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION 8.12(b) AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISIONS HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT.

8.14. No Bankruptcy Petition.

(a) Each Originator, by entering into this Agreement, covenants and agrees, to the extent permissible under applicable law, that it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Purchaser any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings (including, but not limited to, petitioning for the declaration of the Purchaser's assets en désastre) under any Applicable Insolvency Laws.

(b) Notwithstanding anything elsewhere herein contained, the sole remedy of the Originators or any other Person in respect of any obligation, covenant, representation, warranty or agreement of the Purchaser under or related to this Agreement shall be against the assets of the Purchaser. None of the Originators nor any other Person shall have any claim against the Purchaser to the extent that such assets are insufficient to meet such obligation, covenant, representation, warranty or agreement (the difference being referred to herein as a "shortfall") and all claims in respect of the shortfall shall be extinguished.

8.15. Termination. This Agreement will terminate at such time as (a) the commitment of the Purchaser to accept a sale of Receivables from the Originators hereunder shall have terminated and (b) all Receivables have been collected, and the proceeds thereof turned over to the Purchaser and all other amounts owing to the Purchaser hereunder shall have been paid in full or, if Receivables have not been collected, such Receivables have become Defaulted Receivables and the Purchaser shall have completed its collection efforts in respect thereto; provided, however, that the indemnities of the Originators to the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall survive such termination and provided further that, to the extent any amounts remain due and owing to the Purchaser hereunder, the Purchaser shall remain entitled to receive any Collections on Receivables which have become Defaulted Receivables after it shall have completed its collection efforts in respect thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time, any payment made by any Originator is rescinded or must be restored or returned by the Purchaser as a result of any Insolvency Event with respect to such Originator then such Originator's obligations with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had never been made.

8.16. Responsible Officer Certificates; No Recourse. Any certificate executed and delivered by a Responsible Officer of the Originators or the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents shall be executed by such Responsible Officer not in an individual capacity but solely in his or her capacity as an officer of the Originators or the Purchaser, as applicable, and such Responsible Officer will not be subject to personal liability as to the matters contained in the certificate. A director, officer, manager, employee, or member, as such, of the Originators or Purchaser shall not have liability for any obligation of the Originators or the Purchaser hereunder or under any Transaction Document

or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, any Transaction Document, unless such claim results from the gross negligence, fraudulent acts or willful misconduct of such director, officer, employee, manager or member.

I, , a duly elected director/manager of [Tioxide Americas Inc.], [Huntsman Propylene Oxide Ltd.], [Huntsman International Fuels L.P.], [Huntsman Ethyleneamines Ltd.] (the "Originator") hereby certify (in my capacity as a director/manager of the Originator) in connection with the sale of certain Receivables on the date hereof to the Purchaser (as defined herein) pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of October 21, 2002 (the "Receivables Purchase Agreement"), between the Originator, and Huntsman International LLC, as purchaser (the "Purchaser") as follows:

The fair value of the assets of the Originator at a fair valuation exceeds the debts and liabilities (whether subordinated, contingent or otherwise) of the Originator. The assets of the Originator do not constitute unreasonably small capital to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted. The present fair saleable value of the property of the Originator will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Originator on its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured. The Originator does not intend to, or believe that it will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the timing of and amounts of cash to be received by the Originator and the timing of the amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its Indebtedness. The Originator does not contemplate the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of the Originator or any of its assets or revenue.

Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Annex X to the Pooling Agreement.
