     the BOMBARDIER RECEIVABLES MASTER TRUST I (the "Trust") created pursuant to

     and supplemented from time to time, among Bombardier Capital Inc., as
     Servicer, Bombardier Credit Receivables Corporation, as Depositor, and
     BANKERS TRUST COMPANY, as trustee (the "Trustee"), that are allocated to
     the interest represented by the Variable Funding Certificate (the
     "Certificate") pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the
     Variable Funding Supplement dated as of January 1, 1994, as amended and
     supplemented (the "Variable Funding Supplement"). The Pooling and Servicing
     Agreement dated as of January 1, 1994, as amended by Amendment Number 1 to
     Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of January 1, 1997 and as
     otherwise from time to time amended and supplemented and the Variable
     Funding Supplement are herein collectively referred to as the "Pooling and
     Servicing Agreement." The corpus of the Trust will include (a) certain
     Receivables existing under the Accounts at the close of business on January
     1, 1994 (the "Initial Cut-off Date"), certain Receivables generated under
     the Accounts from time to time thereafter, as well as certain Receivables

     interests granted to secure the Receivables. In addition to the Variable
     Funding Certificate, multiple Series of Investor Certificates and the BCRC
     Certificate have been issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
     Agreement. Additional Series of Investor Certificates and a Supplemental
     Certificate may be issued in the future. The Variable Funding Certificate,
     the BCRC Certificate and any Supplemental Certificates represent interests
     in the Trust Assets not represented by the Investor Certificates.

          The Receivables consist of advances made directly or indirectly by BCI
     or an Affiliate of BCI to consumer, recreational and commercial products
     dealers located in the United States and may in the future also consist of
     extensions of credit made by BCI or Affiliates of BCI to dealers,
     manufacturers and/or distributors to finance working capital needs or the
     manufacturing, production or inventory of consumer, recreational or
     commercial products. Such Receivables may also include financing
     arrangements otherwise meeting the description set forth in this paragraph,
     but originated by another lender and acquired by BCI or an Affiliate of BCI
     upon satisfying BCI's customary underwriting standards.
