Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust, shall be validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement and shall be valid and binding obligations of the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates.

The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions from the proceeds of the Trust in respect of their Trust Certificates, and all ownership interests of the Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this Agreement. When executed, issued and duly authorized, the Trust Certificates will be fully paid, validly issued, nonassessable and entitled to all benefits of this Agreement.

(b) The Trust Certificates shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A; provided, however, that any of the Trust Certificates may be issued with appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and variations, and may have imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon such legend or legends, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, as may be required to comply with any law or with rules or regulations pursuant thereto, or with the rules of any securities market in which the Trust Certificates are admitted to trading, or to conform to general usage. The Trust Certificates shall be issuable in registered form only.

Section 3.4 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Trust Certificates.

(a) The Certificate Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept, at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.9, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Owner Trustee shall provide for the registration of

(c) Neither the Trust nor the Trust Estate has been registered as an “investment company” under the 1940 Act, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any transfer of Trust Certificates if such registration of transfer would cause the Trust Certificates to be “beneficially owned” by more than five (5) persons (in each case within the meaning of section 3(c)(1) of the 1940 Act). Any transfer of Trust Certificates that would cause the Trust Certificates to be so owned shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by law, void ab initio and of no force and effect whatsoever.

(d) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Trust Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 3.9, the Owner Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver (or shall cause to be authenticated and delivered), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Percentage Interest dated the date of authentication by the Owner Trustee or any authenticating agent.

(e) Every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the related Certificateholder or such Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Trust Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with its customary practice.

(f) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates.

(g) The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner Trustee shall not make, and the Certificate Registrar shall not register transfers or exchanges of,

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement

Trust Certificates for a period of fifteen (15) days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Trust Certificates.

(i) (x) it is acquiring the Trust Certificates for its own account and is the sole beneficial owner of such Trust Certificates and it will not become a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes while it holds Trust Certificates or (y) it is or may become a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes and at all times the aggregate value of any Trust Certificates that it holds or beneficially owns will represent less than 50% of the value of all of its assets and at no time will any Trust Certificates that it holds or beneficially owns be disproportionately represented (in relation to its other assets) in the value of any of its ownership interests; and

(ii) the transfer is not being effected on or through (x) an “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Code, including without limitation, an over-the-counter market or an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations or (y) a “secondary market” or “substantial equivalent thereof” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(2) of the Code and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury Regulations thereunder;

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no transfer (or purported transfer) of any Trust Certificate (or any economic interest therein) shall be effective, and any such transfer (or purported transfer) shall be void to the extent that (i) such transfer would cause the number of direct or indirect holders of an interest in Trust Certificates to exceed,

In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate under this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 3.7 Persons Deemed Owners.

Any such Holder agrees by its acceptance of a Trust Certificate, on an ongoing basis, to provide like certification for each taxable year and to notify the Owner Trustee and the Paying Agent should subsequent circumstances arise affecting the information provided the Owner Trustee or the Paying Agent in clauses (a) and (b) above. The Owner Trustee and the Paying Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon, and each Holder by its acceptance of a Trust Certificate hereunder agrees to indemnify and hold the Owner Trustee and the Paying Agent harmless against all claims or liability of any kind arising in connection with or related to the Owner

Section 5.5 Signature on Returns, Tax Matters Partner. The Owner Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust any and all tax returns of the Trust that are prepared and delivered to it for execution by the Administrator, unless applicable law requires a Certificateholder to sign such documents, in which case such documents shall be signed by the Initial Beneficiary if the Initial Beneficiary is a Certificateholder at the applicable time. To the extent that the Trust is treated as a partnership, the Initial Beneficiary shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Trust pursuant to the Code if the Initial Beneficiary is a Certificateholder at the applicable time. If the Initial Beneficiary is not a Certificateholder at the applicable time, the “tax matters partner” of the Trust shall be the partner with the largest percentage interest in the Certificates. Under no circumstances shall the Owner Trustee be the “tax matters partner” of the Trust.

Section 5.6 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall not be required to execute, deliver or certify in accordance with the provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act on behalf of the Trust or any other Person, any periodic reports filed pursuant to the 1934 Securities Exchange Act, or any other documents pursuant to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, as amended.

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement

(c) The execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement (i) shall not violate any provision of any law or regulation governing the banking and trust powers of the Owner Trustee or any order, writ, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority applicable to the Owner Trustee or any of its assets, (ii) shall not violate any provision of the corporate charter or by-laws of the Owner Trustee and (iii) shall not violate any provision of, or constitute, with or without notice or lapse of time, a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any properties included in the Trust pursuant to the provisions of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement or other undertaking to which it is a party, which violation, default or lien could reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on the Owner Trustee’s performance or ability to perform its duties as Owner Trustee under this Agreement or on the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

(d) The execution, delivery and performance by the Owner Trustee of this Agreement shall not require the authorization, consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the filing or registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any Governmental Authority regulating the banking and corporate trust activities of banks or trust companies in the jurisdiction in which the Trust was formed.

(e) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee and constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Owner Trustee, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(f) There are no pending or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened actions or proceedings against the Owner Trustee before any court, administrative agency or tribunal which, if determined adversely to it, would materially and adversely affect its ability, either in its individual capacity or as Owner Trustee, as the case may be, to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Basic Documents.

Section 6.7 Reliance, Advice of Counsel.

(a) The Owner Trustee shall incur no liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties and need not investigate any fact or matter in any such document. The Owner Trustee may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any corporate party as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the method of the determination of which is not specifically prescribed herein, the Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer or other authorized officers of the relevant party, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Owner Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement

(b) In the exercise or administration of the trusts hereunder and in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement or the other Basic Documents, the Owner Trustee: (i) may act directly or through its agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees if such agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees shall have been selected by the Owner Trustee with reasonable care; and (ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled professionals to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it.

Section 6.8 Owner Trustee May Own the Residual Interest and Notes. The Owner Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of the Residual Interest or Notes and may deal with the Initial Beneficiary, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer in transactions in the same manner as it would have if it were not the Owner Trustee.

Section 6.9 Compensation and Indemnity. The Owner Trustee shall receive as compensation for its services hereunder such fees as have been separately agreed upon before the date hereof between the Initial Beneficiary and the Owner Trustee, and the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Servicer for its other expenses hereunder, including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, custodians, nominees, representatives, experts and counsel as the Owner Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and its duties hereunder.

The Administrator may appoint a successor Owner Trustee by delivering written instrument, in duplicate, to the resigning Owner Trustee and the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice, the resigning Owner Trustee giving such notice may petition at the expense of the Servicer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. The Depositor or the Administrator shall remove the Owner Trustee if:

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement

(i) the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.13 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Administrator;

(ii) the Owner Trustee shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent;

(iii) a receiver or other public officer shall be appointed or take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; or

(iv) the Owner Trustee shall otherwise be legally incapable of acting.

(b) If the Owner Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Owner Trustee for any reason the Administrator shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate (one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee) and shall pay all fees owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.

(c) Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall not become effective, and no such resignation shall be deemed to have occurred, until a written acceptance of appointment is delivered by the successor Owner Trustee to the outgoing Owner Trustee and the Administrator, and all fees and expenses due to the outgoing Owner Trustee are paid. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 6.10 shall be eligible to act in such capacity in accordance with Section 6.13 and, following compliance with the preceding sentence, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The Administrator shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee to each of the Rating Agencies.

(d) The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents, computer files and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement.

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement

Section 6.12 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate or any of the Dealers may at the time be located, the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or as separate trustee or trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.12, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Administrator and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Administrator shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee pursuant to Section 6.13 and no notice of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 6.10.

(b) Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

(i) all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;

(ii) no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

(iii) the Administrator and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement

protection to, the Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

(d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

If such corporation shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section 6.13, the aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits of such corporation shall be deemed to be its aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.13, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 6.10. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall comply at all times with subsection (a)(4)(i) of Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act. At all times, at least one trustee of the Trust shall satisfy the requirements of Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Act.

(c) Except as provided in Section 6.3(a), none of the Initial Beneficiary or the Certificateholders shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Trust.

Section 8.2 Amendments With Consent of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders.

(a) This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Initial Beneficiary and the Owner Trustee with the consent of the Noteholders representing a majority of the outstanding Note Balance of the Controlling Class (unless, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, such amendment shall not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders), and the consent of the Certificateholders (unless, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, such amendment shall not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders) (which consent, whether given pursuant to this Section 8.2 or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, shall be conclusive and binding on such Persons and on all future Noteholders and Certificateholders, whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Notes or the Trust Certificates for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders and Certificateholders); provided, however, that no amendment may increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collection on payments on the Trust Estate or payments that are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders without the consent of each Noteholder.

The Owner Trustee may request an officer’s certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Initial Beneficiary certifying that any amendment does not have an adverse effect on the Holders of the Notes or that the consent of the Holders representing a majority of the Note Balance has been obtained, which officer’s certificate may be conclusively relied upon by the Owner Trustee.

The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Noteholders and the Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Noteholders and the Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

The Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2012 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), between the Initial Beneficiary and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2012 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), among the Trust, Huntington Funding, LLC, The Huntington National Bank, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Indenture Trustee.

This certifies that Huntington Funding, LLC is the registered owner of 100% nonassessable, fully paid, validly issued undivided percentage interest in Huntington Auto Trust 2012-1 and is entitled to all benefits of the Trust Agreement.

This Trust Certificate is subordinate to the Notes and subject to Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Trust Certificate represents a right to amounts in the Certificate Distribution Account and the Residual Interest. This Trust 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 Trust Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

The Holder of this Trust Certificate acknowledges and agrees that its rights to receive distributions in respect of this Trust Certificate are subordinate to the rights of the Notes and subject to the obligations of the Trust set forth in Section 5.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

It is the intent of the Initial Beneficiary, the Trust and the Certificateholders that solely for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, (a) the Notes shall be treated as debt and (b) the Trust shall not be treated as an association (or publicly-traded partnership) taxable as a corporation.

A Certificateholder, by its acceptance of a Trust Certificate, covenants and agrees that such Certificateholder shall not at any time institute against or join in any institution against the Initial Beneficiary or the Trust of any involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Trust 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.

[REVERSE OF TRUST CERTIFICATE]

The Trust Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, Initial Beneficiary, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee or any affiliates of any of them and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust Agreement or the Basic Documents. In addition, this Trust 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 Loans (and certain other amounts), all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement. A copy of each of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement may be examined by any Certificateholder upon written request during normal business hours at the principal office of the Initial Beneficiary and at such other places, if any, designated by Initial Beneficiary.

The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Initial Beneficiary and the rights of Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement at any time by the Initial Beneficiary and the Owner Trustee with the consent of the consent of the Noteholders representing a majority of the outstanding Note Balance of the Controlling Class and the Holders of the Trust Certificates evidencing not less than a majority of the Percentage Interest. Any such consent by the Holder of this Trust Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of this Trust Certificate and of any Trust 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 Trust Certificate. The Trust Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Trust Certificates.

As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Trust Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Trust Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar designated by the Owner Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Trust Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Trust shall be issued to the designated transferee. The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas.

Except as provided in the Trust Agreement, the Trust Certificates are issuable only as registered Trust Certificates without coupons the percentage interests reflected thereon; provided, however, that a single Trust Certificate may be issued in such denomination as required to include any residual amount. As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Trust Certificates are exchangeable for new Trust Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate denomination, as requested by the Certificateholder surrendering the same. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate

Amended and Restated Trust Agreement (Exhibit A)

Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

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

The obligations and responsibilities to the Certificateholders created by the Trust Agreement and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Trust Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the disposition of all property held as part of the Trust Estate. The Servicer of the Loans may at its option purchase the Trust Estate at a price specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and such purchase of the Loans and other property of the Trust shall effect early retirement of the Trust Certificates; provided, however, that such right of purchase is exercisable only as of the last day of any Collection Period of which the then outstanding Net Pool Balance is less than or equal to 10% of the Initial Net Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date.

The Trust Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in section 3(3) of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), (b) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (c) an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” of any of the foregoing by reason of investment by an employee benefit plan or plan in such entity (each, a “Benefit Plan”). By accepting and holding this Trust Certificate, the Holder hereof shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan.
