Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Indenture or the Related Documents, but subject in all respects to the Surety Provider’s rights under Section 6.11, upon the Trustee’s receipt of notice from any Lessee, any Borrower or CRCF (i) to the effect that a Manufacturer Program is no longer an Eligible Manufacturer Program and that, as a result, the Series 2005-1 Maximum Non-Program Vehicle Amount is or will be exceeded or (ii) that the
Lessees, the Borrowers and CRCF have determined to in-crease any Series 2005-1 Maximum Amount, (such notice, a “Waiver Request”), each Series 2005-1 Note-holder may, at its option, waive the Series 2005-1 Maximum Non-Program Vehicle Amount or any other Series 2005-1 Maximum Amount (collectively, a “Waivable Amount”) if (i) no Amortization Event exists, (ii) the Requisite Noteholders and the Surety Provider consent to such waiver and (iii) 60 days’ prior written notice of such proposed waiver is provided to the Rating Agencies by the Trustee.
Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Waiver Request (a copy of which the Trustee shall promptly provide to the Rating Agencies), all amounts which would otherwise be allocated to the Series 2005-1 Excess Collection Account (collectively, the “Designated Amounts”) from the date the Trustee receives a Waiver Request through the Consent Period Expiration Date will be held by the Trustee in the Series 2005-1 Collection Account for ratable distribution as described below.
Within ten (10) Business Days after the Trustee receives a Waiver Request, the Trustee shall furnish notice thereof to the Series 2005-1 Noteholders and the Surety Provider, which notice shall be accompanied by a form of consent (each a “Consent”) in the form ofExhibit B hereto by which the Series 2005-1 Noteholders may, on or before the Consent Period Expiration Date, consent to waiver of the applicable Waivable Amount. If the Trustee receives the consent of the Surety Provider and Consents from the Requisite Noteholders agreeing to waiver of the applicable Waivable Amount within forty-five (45) days after the Trustee notifies the Series 2005-1 Noteholders of a Waiver Request (the day on which such forty-five (45) day period expires, the “Consent Period Expiration Date”), (i) the applicable Waivable Amount shall be deemed waived by the consenting Series 2005-1 Noteholders, (ii) the Trustee will distribute the Designated Amounts as set forth below and (iii) the Trustee shall promptly (but in any event within two days) provide the Rating Agency with notice of such waiver. Any Series 2005-1 Noteholder from whom the Trustee has not received a Consent on or before the Consent Period Expiration Date will be deemed not to have consented to such waiver.
If the Trustee receives Consents from the Requisite Noteholders on or before the Consent Period Expiration Date, then on the immediately following Dis-tribution Date, the Trustee will pay the Designated Amounts as follows:
(i) to the non-consenting Series 2005-1 Noteholders, if any,pro rata up to the amount required to pay all Series 2005-1 Notes held by such non-consenting Series 2005-1 Noteholders in full; and
(ii) any remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2005-1 Excess Collection Account.
If the amount paid pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph is not paid in full on the date specified therein, then on each day following such Dis-tribution Date, the Administrator will allocate to the Series 2005-1 Collection Account on a daily basis all Designated Amounts collected on such day. On each following Distribution Date, the Trustee will withdraw a portion of such Designated Amounts from the Series 2005-1 Collection Account and deposit the same in the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account for distribution as follows:
(a) to the non-consenting Series 2005-1 Noteholders, if any,pro rata an amount equal to the Designated Amounts in the Series 2005-1 Collection Account as of the applicable Determination Date up to the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Series 2005-1 Notes held by the non-consenting Series 2005-1 Noteholders; and
(b) any remaining Designated Amounts to the Series 2005-1 Excess Collection Account.
If the Requisite Noteholders or the Surety Provider do not timely consent to such waiver, the Designated Amounts will be re-allocated to the Series 2005-1 Excess Collection Account for allocation and distribution in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Related Documents.
In the event that the Series 2005-1 Rapid Amortization Period shall commence after receipt by the Trustee of a Waiver Request, all such Designated Amounts will thereafter be considered Principal Collections allocated to the Series 2005-1 Noteholders.

If, following the issue of a Permanent Global Note in exchange for some of the Class A-1 Notes represented by this Temporary Global Note, further Notes of this Series are to be exchanged pursuant to this paragraph, such exchange may be effected, without the issue of a new Permanent Global Note, by the Company or its agent
endorsing Part I of Schedule A of the Permanent Global Note previously issued to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of such Permanent Global Note by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the additional Notes of this Series to be ex-changed.

Each person who is shown in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream as entitled to a particular number of Class A-1 Notes by way of an interest in this Temporary Global Note will be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any paying agent as the holder of such number of Class A-1 Notes.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Temporary Global Note, the Company irrevocably agrees, for the benefit of such holder and its successors and assigns, that, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, each holder or its successors or assigns may file any claim, take any action or institute any proceeding to enforce, directly against the Company, the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any amount due in respect of each Class A-1 Note represented by this Temporary Global Note which is credited to such holder’s securities account with Euroclear or Clearstream without the production of this Temporary Global Note.

The Base Indenture and the Series 2005-1 Supplement are referred to herein as the “Indenture”. The Class A-1 Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Amortization Event, Liquidation Event of Default, Waiver Event or Series 2005-1 Limited Liquidation Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing then, in certain circumstances, principal on the Class A-1 Notes may be paid earlier, as described in the Indenture. All principal payments on the Class A-1 Notes shall be made pro rata to the Noteholders entitled thereto.

The Company shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the Class A-1 Note Rate to the extent lawful.
As provided in the Indenture, the Class A-1 Notes may be redeemed, in whole, but not in part, at the option of the Company on any Distribution Date if on such Distribution Date the Class A-1 Invested Amount is less than or equal to 10% of the Class A-1 Initial Invested Amount.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Temporary Global Note, the Company irrevocably agrees, for the benefit of such holder and its successors and assigns, that, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, each holder or its successors or assigns may file any claim, take any action or institute any proceeding to enforce, directly against the Company, the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any amount due in respect of each Class A-2 Note represented by this Temporary Global Note which is credited to such holder’s securities account with Euroclear or Clearstream without the production of this Temporary Global Note.

The Base Inden-ture and the Series 2005-1 Supplement are referred to herein as the “Indenture”. The Class A-3 Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture.
