ARTICLE III
THE BACKUP SERVICER

SECTION 3.1 Liability of Backup Servicer; Indemnities.

(a) The Backup Servicer shall be liable hereunder only to the extent of the obligations in this Agreement specifically undertaken by the Backup Servicer and the representations made by the Backup Servicer. Other than as specifically set forth in this Backup

Servicing Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and shall have no liability for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer.

(b) The Backup Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Servicer, the Issuer and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Servicer or the Issuer through the Backup Servicer’s breach of this Agreement, the negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Backup Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

(c) The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Backup Servicer and its respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Backup Servicer through the Servicer’s breach of this Agreement, the negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

(d) The Issuer shall (solely from Available Funds (as defined below)) indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Backup Servicer and its respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Backup Servicer through the Issuer’s breach of this Agreement, the negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Issuer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement. For purposes of the foregoing, “Available Funds” means (i) if the Existing Indenture Supplements have been amended as provided in Schedule II hereto, funds available for distribution pursuant to Section 3.01(h) and/or Section 3.05(f) of the Series 2003-1 Indenture Supplement and/or the Series 2003-2 Indenture Supplement, and/or pursuant Section 3.01(i) and/or Section 3.05(e) of the Series 0000-0 Xxxxxxxxx Supplement, (ii) prior to the effectiveness of any such amendment referred to in clause (i), funds that would otherwise be available for distribution to the Transferor as Shared Excess Available Interest Amounts or Shared Excess Available Principal Amounts pursuant to each of the Existing Indenture Supplements and (iii) with respect to all Future Indenture Supplements, funds available for distribution pursuant to comparable sections to those in clause (i). The Transferor irrevocably consents to the application of funds contemplated by clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.

(e) The Backup Servicer may accept and reasonably rely on all accounting and servicing records and other documentation provided to the Backup Servicer by or at the direction of the Servicer, including documents prepared or maintained by any Originator, or Servicer, or any party providing services related to the Receivables (collectively “Third Party”). The Servicer agrees to indemnify (subject to the limitation provided in Section 3.2 below) and hold harmless the Backup Servicer, its respective officers, employees and agents against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Backup Servicer may sustain in any way related to the

negligence or misconduct of any Third Party with respect to the Receivables. The Backup Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability (collectively “Liability”) for the acts or omissions of any such Third Party. If any error, inaccuracy or omission (collectively “Error”) exists in any information provided to the Backup Servicer and such Errors cause or materially contribute to the Backup Servicer making or continuing any Error (collectively “Continuing Errors”), the Backup Servicer shall have no liability for such Continuing Errors; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup Servicer against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in discovering or correcting any Error or in the performance of its duties contemplated herein.

In the event the Backup Servicer becomes aware of Errors and/or Continuing Errors which, in the opinion of the Backup Servicer, impair its ability to perform its services hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee of such Errors and/or Continuing Errors. The Backup Servicer shall discuss such Errors with the Servicer, and the Servicer and the Backup Servicer shall use their reasonable efforts to correct such Errors. If after such discussion such Errors are not promptly corrected, with the prior consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer may undertake to reconstruct any data or records appropriate to correct such Errors and/or Continuing Errors and to prevent future Continuing Errors. The Backup Servicer shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended as Backup Servicer Fees and Expenses in accordance with the Master Indenture and the Indenture Supplements.

(f) Indemnification under this Article shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (including but not limited to counsel who may be employees of the Backup Servicer) and expenses of litigation. If the indemnifying party has made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Article and the recipient thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the recipient shall promptly repay such amounts collected to the indemnifying party. When the Backup Servicer incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

(g) The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.2 Limitation on Liability. Neither the Backup Servicer, the Servicer, the Issuer nor any of their respective directors or officers or employees or agents shall be under any liability to the other, or any party to the Transaction Documents except as provided in this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup Servicer, the Servicer, the Issuer or any such Person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of a breach of this Agreement, the inaccuracy of any of their respective representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement or willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of their respective duties, by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or any violation of law by the Backup Servicer, the Servicer, the Issuer or such Person, as the case may be. The Backup Servicer, the Servicer, the Issuer and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents may rely in good faith

on the advice of counsel (including but not limited to counsel who may be employees of the Backup Servicer or the Servicer, as the case may be) or on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement.

SECTION 3.3 Corporate Existence. The Backup Servicer shall maintain its existence and rights as a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have an adverse effect on the validity or enforceability of any Receivable or this Agreement or on the ability of the Backup Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement.

SECTION 3.4 Insurance. The Backup Servicer shall maintain adequate insurance in amounts and with terms customarily subscribed by companies in the same industry performing similar functions to those of the Backup Servicer in its role as Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable.

SECTION 3.5 Compliance with Laws. The Backup Servicer covenants with the parties hereto that, upon the expiration of the Transfer Period, the practices used or to be used by the Backup Servicer to monitor collections with respect to the Receivables and repossess and dispose of the Equipment related to the Receivables will be, in all material respects, legal, proper and in conformity with the requirements of all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations. Upon the expiration of the Transfer Period, the Backup Servicer will be in possession of all state and local licenses (including all debt collection licenses) required for it to perform its services hereunder, and none of such licenses shall have been suspended, revoked or terminated.

SECTION 3.6 Future Series. (a) The Backup Servicer will continue to perform in its capacity as Backup Servicer hereunder and under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement notwithstanding the fact that the Issuer issues one or more additional Series of Notes from time to time as permitted under the Transaction Documents; provided however, that the Backup Servicer will only be obligated to continue to perform in its capacity as Backup Servicer hereunder and under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement if (A)(i) the applicable Series does not have any Enhancement Providers and (ii) the related Future Indenture Supplement contains provisions comparable to those required to be added to the Existing Indenture Supplements as set forth in Schedule II or (B) if so required pursuant to Section 3.6(b).

(b) Prior to issuing a Series of Notes for which there will be an Enhancement Provider or for which the related Future Indenture Supplement does not contain provisions comparable to those required to be added to the Existing Indenture Supplements as set forth in Schedule II, the Transferor will confirm with SST that it agrees (such agreement by SST not to be unreasonably withheld) to continue in its capacity as Backup Servicer following such issuance of Notes.
