with respect to a Demand Note Issuer shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee shall not be required to deliver such Demand Notice to such Demand Note

Trustee shall withdraw from the Series 2005-1 Cash Collateral Account and
deposit in the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account an amount equal to the lesser
of (x) the Series 2005-1 Cash Collateral Percentage on such Business Day of the

(iv) Demand
on Surety Bond. If the
sum of the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount and the Series 2005-1 Available

deposit into the Collection Account required to be given by the Administrator,
at the time specified in the Administration Agreement or any other Related
Document (including applicable grace periods), the Trustee shall make such
payment or deposit into or from the Collection Account without such notice or
instruction from the Administrator, provided that the
Administrator, upon request of the Trustee, promptly provides the Trustee with
all information necessary to allow the Trustee to make such a payment or
deposit. When any payment or deposit hereunder or under

Section
2.7 Series-2005-1
Reserve Account.
(a) Establishment
of Series 2005-1 Reserve Account. CRCF
shall establish and maintain in the name of the Series 2005-1 Agent for the
benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap
Counterparty and the Surety Provider, or cause to be estab-lished and
maintained, an account (the “Series
2005-1 Reserve Account”),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty and the Surety Provider. The Series 2005-1
Reserve Account shall be maintained (i) with a Qualified Institution, or (ii) as
a segregated trust account with the corporate trust department of a depository
institution or trust company having corporate trust powers and acting as trustee
for funds deposited in the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account; provided that, if
at any time such Qualified Institution is no longer a Qualified Institution or
the credit rating of any securities issued by such depositary institution or
trust company shall be reduced to below “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s or
“Baa2” by Moody’s, then CRCF shall, within 30 days of such reduction, establish
a new Series 2005-1 Reserve Account with a new Qualified Institution. If the
Series 2005-1 Reserve Account is not maintained in accordance with the previous
sentence, CRCF shall establish a new Series 2005-1 Reserve Account, within ten
(10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact, which complies with
such sentence, and shall instruct the Series 2005-1 Agent in writing to transfer
all cash and investments from the non-qualifying Series 2005-1 Reserve Account
into the new Series 2005-1 Reserve Account. Initially, the Series 2005-1 Reserve
Account will be established with The Bank of New York.
(b) Administration
of the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account. The
Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the Series 2005-1 Reserve
Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account from
time to time in Permitted Investments; provided,
however, that
any such investment shall mature not later than the Business Day prior to the
Distribution Date following the date on which such funds were received, unless
any Permitted Investment held in the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account is held with
the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such Distribution Date and
such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such Distribution
Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series 2005-1
Reserve Account and any such Permitted Investments that const-itute
(i) physical property (and that is not either a United States security
entitlement or a security entitlement) shall be physically delivered to the
Trustee; (ii) United States security entitlements or security entitlements
shall be controlled (as defined in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) by
the Trustee pending maturity or disposition, and (iii) uncertificated
securities (and not United States security entitlements) shall be delivered to
the Trustee by causing the Trustee to become the registered holder of such
securities. The Trustee shall, at the expense of CRCF, take such action as is
required to maintain the Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted
Investments credited to the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account. CRCF shall not direct
the Trustee to dispose of (or permit the disposal of) any Permitted Investments
prior to the maturity thereof to the extent such disposal would result in a loss
of the purchase price of such Permitted Investments. In the absence of written
investment instructions hereunder, funds on deposit in the Series 2005-1 Reserve
Account shall remain uninvested.
-35-
(c) Earnings
from Series 2005-1 Reserve Ac-count. All
interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on
deposit in the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account shall be deemed to be on deposit
therein and available for distribution.
(d) Series
2005-1 Reserve Account Constitutes Additional Collateral for Series 2005-1
Notes. In
order to secure and provide for the repayment and payment of the CRCF
Obligations with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, CRCF hereby grants a
security interest in and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty and the Surety Provider, all of CRCF’s
right, title and interest in and to the following (whether now or hereafter
existing or acquired): (i) the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account, including any
security entitlement thereto; (ii) all funds on deposit therein from time to
time; (iii) all certificates and instruments, if any, representing or evidencing
any or all of the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account or the funds on deposit therein

other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed
in respect of or in exchange for the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account, the funds on
deposit therein from time to time or the investments made with such funds; and
(vi) all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing, including, without
limitation, cash (the items in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) are
referred to, collectively, as the “Series
2005-1 Reserve Account Collateral”). The
Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in and to all funds on
deposit from time to time in the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account and in all
proceeds thereof, and shall be the only person authorized to originate
entitlement orders in respect of the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account. The Series
2005-1 Reserve Account Collateral shall be under the sole dominion and control
of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty and the Surety Provider. The Series
2005-1 Agent hereby agrees (i) to act as the securities intermediary (as defined
in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the New York UCC) with respect to the Series
2005-1 Reserve Account; (ii) that its jurisdiction as securities intermediary is
New York; (iii) that each item of property (whether investment property,
financial asset, security, instrument or cash) credited to the Series 2005-1
Reserve Account shall be treated as a financial asset (as defined in Section
8-102(a)(9) of the New York UCC) and (iv) to comply with any entitlement
order (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the New York UCC) issued by the
Trustee.
(e) Series
2005-1 Reserve Account Surplus. In the
event that the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account Surplus on any Distribution Date,
after giving effect to all withdrawals from the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account,
is greater than zero, if no Series 2005-1 Enhancement Deficiency or AESOP I
Operating Lease Vehicle Deficiency would result therefrom or exist thereafter,
the Trustee, acting in accordance with the written instructions of the
Administrator (with a copy of such written instructions to be provided by the
Administrator to the Surety Provider) pursuant to the Administration Agreement,
shall withdraw from the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account an amount equal to the
Series 2005-1 Reserve Account Surplus and shall pay such amount to
CRCF.
(f) Termination
of Series 2005-1 Reserve Ac-count. Upon
the termination of the Indenture pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Base Indenture,
the Trustee, acting in accordance
-36-
with the
written instructions of the Administrator, after the prior payment of all
amounts owing to the Series 2005-1 Noteholders and to the Surety Provider and
payable from the Series 2005-1 Reserve Account as provided herein, shall

shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of
the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap
Counterparty and the Surety Provider. The Series 2005-1 Agent hereby agrees (i)
to act as the securities intermediary (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the
New York UCC) with respect to the Series 2005-1 Cash Collateral Account;

New York UCC) by the Trustee pending maturity or disposition, and
(iii) uncertificated securities (and not United States security

the registered holder of such securities. The Trustee shall, at the expense of
CRCF, take such action as is required to maintain the Trustee’s security
interest in the Permitted Investments credited to the Series 2005-1 Cash
Collateral Account. CRCF shall not direct the Trustee to dispose of (or permit

Section
2.9 Series
2005-1 Distribution Account.
(a) Establishment
of Series 2005-1 Distribution Account. CRCF
shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty
and the Surety Provider, or cause to be established and maintained, an account
(the “Series
2005-1 Distribution Account”),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are
held for the benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty and the Surety Provider. The Series 2005-1
Distribution Account shall be maintained (i) with a Qualified Institution, or
(ii) as a segregated trust account with the corporate trust department of a
depository institution or trust company having corporate trust powers and acting
as trustee for funds deposited in the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account;
provided,
however, that if
at any time such Qualified Institution is no longer a Qualified Institution or
the credit rating of any securities issued by such depositary institution or
trust company shall be reduced to below “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s or
“Baa3” by Moody’s, then CRCF shall, within 30 days of such reduction, establish
a new Series 2005-1 Distribution Account with a new Qualified Institution. If
the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account is not maintained in accordance with the
previous sentence, CRCF shall establish a new Series 2005-1 Distribution
Account, within ten (10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact,
which complies with such sentence, and shall instruct the Series 2005-1
Agent in writing to transfer all cash and investments from the non-qualify-ing
Series 2005-1 Distribution Account
-41-
into the
new Series 2005-1 Distribution Account. Initially, the Series 2005-1
Distribution Account will be established with The Bank of
New York.
(b) Administration
of the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account. The
Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the Series 2005-1
Distribution Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2005-1
Distribution Account from time to time in Permitted Investments; provided,
however, that
any such investment shall mature not later than the Business Day prior to the
Distribution Date following the date on which such funds were received, unless
any Permitted Investment held in the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account is held
with the Paying Agent, then such investment may mature on such Distribution Date
and such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such
Distribution Date. All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series
2005-1 Distribution Account and any such Permitted Investments that constitute
(i) physical property (and that is not either a United States security
entitlement or a security entitlement) shall be physically delivered to the
Trustee; (ii) United States security entitlements or security entitlements
shall be controlled (as defined in Section 8-106 of the New York UCC) by
the Trustee pending maturity or disposition, and (iii) uncertificated
securities (and not United States security entitlements) shall be delivered to
the Trustee by causing the Trustee to become the registered holder of such
securities. The Trustee shall, at the expense of CRCF, take such action as is
required to maintain the Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted
Investments credited to the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account. CRCF shall not
direct the Trustee to dispose of (or permit the disposal of) any Permitted
Investments prior to the maturity thereof to the extent such disposal would
result in a loss of the purchase price of such Permitted Investments. In the
absence of written investment instructions hereunder, funds on deposit in the
Series 2005-1 Distribution Account shall remain uninvested.
(c) Earnings
from Series 2005-1 Distribution Account. All
interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on
deposit in the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account shall be deemed to be on
deposit and available for distribution.
(d) Series
2005-1 Distribution Account Constitutes Additional Collateral for Series 2005-1
Notes. In
order to secure and provide for the repayment and payment of the CRCF
Obligations with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, CRCF hereby grants a
security interest in and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets over to
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty and the Surety Provider, all of CRCF’s
right, title and interest in and to the following (whether now or hereafter
existing or acquired): (i) the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account, including any
security entitlement thereto; (ii) all funds on deposit therein from time to
time; (iii) all certificates and instruments, if any, representing or evidencing
any or all of the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account or the funds on deposit
therein from time to time; (iv) all investments made at any time and from time
to time with monies in the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account, whether
constituting securities, instruments, general intangibles, invest-ment property,
financial assets or other property; (v) all interest, dividends, cash,
instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or
otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for the Series 2005-1
Distribution Account, the funds on deposit therein from time to time or the
investments made with such funds; and (vi) all proceeds of any and all of the
foregoing, including, without limitation, cash (the items in the foregoing
clauses (i) through (vi) are referred to, collectively, as the “Series
2005-1 Distribution Account Collateral”). The
Trustee shall possess all right, title
-42-
and
interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Series 2005-1
Distribution Account and in and to all proceeds thereof, and shall be the only
person authorized to originate entitlement orders in respect of the Series
2005-1 Distribution Account. The Series 2005-1 Distribution Account Collateral
shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of
the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, each Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap
Counterparty and the Surety Provider. The Series 2005-1 Agent hereby agrees (i)
to act as the securities intermediary (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the
New York UCC) with respect to the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account;
(ii) that its jurisdiction as securities intermediary is New York, (iii)
that each item of property (whether investment property, financial asset,
security, instrument or cash) credited to the Series 2005-1 Distribution Account
shall be treated as a financial asset (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the
New York UCC) and (iv) to comply with any entitlement order (as defined in
Section 8-102(a)(8) of the New York UCC) issued by the
Trustee.
Section

Provider (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) in respect of the Class
A-3 Notes satisfying the requirements of clause (ii) below, in each case with a
Qualified Interest Rate Swap Counterparty (each a “Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swap”):
(i)
The
Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps in respect of the Class A-2 Notes shall have
an aggregate initial notional amount equal to the Class A-2 Initial Invested
Amount. The aggregate notional amount of such Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps
shall be reduced pursuant to the terms of such Series 2005-1 Interest Rate
Swaps but shall not at any time be less than the Class A-2 Invested Amount. The
fixed rate payable by CRCF under such Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps and any
replacement thereof shall not be greater than 5.5%.
(ii) The
Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps in respect of the Class A-3 Notes shall have
an aggregate initial notional amount equal to the Class A-3 Initial Invested
Amount. The aggregate notional amount of such Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps
shall be reduced pursuant to the terms of such Series 2005-1 Interest Rate
Swaps but shall not at any time be less than the Class A-3 Invested Amount. The
fixed rate payable by CRCF under such Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps and any
replacement thereof shall not be greater than 5.5%.
(b) Replacement
of Any Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap. If, at
any time, a Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty does not have (i) a
long-term senior, unsecured debt, deposit, claims paying or credit (as the case
may be) rating above “A-” from Standard & Poor’s and above “A3” from
Moody’s, (ii) a short-term senior, unsecured debt, deposit, claims paying or
credit (as the case may be) rating of at least “A-1”, or if such Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty does not have a short-term senior, unsecured
debt rating, then a long-term senior, unsecured debt, deposit, claims paying or
credit (as the case may be) rating of at least “A+”, in each case, from Standard
& Poor’s and (iii) a short-term senior, unsecured debt, deposit, claims
paying or credit (as the case may be) rating of “P-1”, or if such Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty does not have a short-term senior, unsecured
debt rating, then a long-term senior, unsecured debt, deposit, claims paying or
credit (as the case may be) rating of
-43-
at least
“A1”, in each case, from Moody’s, then CRCF shall cause the Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty within 30 days following such occurrence, at the
Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty’s expense, to do one of the
following (the choice of such action to be determined by the Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty) (i) obtain a replacement interest rate swap on
substantially the same terms as the replaced Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap
from a Qualified Interest Rate Swap Provider and terminate the applicable Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swap, (ii) collateralize its obligations under the Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swap in a manner acceptable to the Rating Agencies and the
Surety Provider (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) in an amount and
with collateral which is sufficient to maintain or restore the immediately prior
ratings (without giving effect to the Policy) of the Series 2005-1 Notes or
(iii) enter into any other arrangement satisfactory to Standard & Poor’s,
Moody’s and the Surety Provider (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment),
which is sufficient to maintain or restore the immediately prior ratings
(without giving effect to the Surety Bond) of the Series 2005-1
Notes;
provided that no
termination of any Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap shall occur until CRCF has
entered into a replacement interest rate swap or shall have entered any other
arrangement satisfactory to Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and the Surety
Provider (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment).
(c) To secure
payment of all CRCF Obligations with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, CRCF
grants a security interest in, and assigns, pledges, grants, transfers and sets
over to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders and the

2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Collateral”). CRCF
shall require all Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Proceeds to be paid to,
and the Trustee shall allocate all Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Proceeds to,
the Series 2005-1 Accrued Interest Account of the Series 2005-1
Collection Account.
(d) The
failure of CRCF to comply with its covenants contained in this Section 2.10

Notes.

ARTICLE
IV
RIGHT
TO WAIVE PURCHASE RESTRICTIONS
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
-46-
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 of Exhibit 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:
-47-
(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.

would exceed 25.0%.
Section
6.14 Third
Party Beneficiary. The

Notice by Trustee to Surety Provider. Subject
to Section 10.1 of the Base Indenture, the Trustee agrees that, so long as no
Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any
Series of Notes other than the Series 2005-1 Notes, it shall not exercise any
rights or remedies available to it as a result of the occurrence of an
Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes (except those set
forth in clauses (f) and (g) of Article III) or a Series 2005-1 Limited
Liquidation Event of Default until after the Trustee has given prior written
notice thereof to the Surety Provider and each Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap
Counterparty and obtained the direction of the Required Noteholders with respect
to the Series 2005-1 Notes. The Trustee agrees to notify the Surety Provider

result of the occurrence of any Amortization Event or a Series 2005-1 Limited
Liquidation Event of Default.
Section
6.16 Effect
of Payments by the Surety Provider.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any distribution of principal
of or interest on the Series 2005-1 Notes that is made with moneys received
pursuant to the terms of the Surety Bond shall not (except for the purpose of
calculating the Principal Deficit Amount) be considered payment of the
Series 2005-1 Notes by CRCF. The Trustee acknowledges that, without the
need for any further action on the part of the Surety Provider, (i) to the
extent the Surety Provider makes payments, directly or indirectly, on account of
principal of or interest on the Series 2005-1 Notes to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders or to the Series 2005-1
Noteholders
-52-
(including
any Preference Amounts as defined in the Surety Bond), the Surety Provider will
be fully subrogated to the rights of such Series 2005-1 Noteholders to
receive such principal and interest and will be deemed to the extent of the
payments so made to be a Series 2005-1 Noteholder and (ii) the Surety
Provider shall be paid principal and interest in its capacity as a
Series 2005-1 Noteholder until all such payments by the Surety Provider
have been fully reimbursed, but only from the sources and in the manner provided
herein for the distribution of such principal and interest and in each case only
after the Series 2005-1 Noteholders have received all payments of principal
and interest due to them hereunder on the related Distribution
Date.
Section
6.17 Series
2005-1 Demand Notes. Other
than pursuant to a demand thereon pursuant to Section 2.5, CRCF shall not
reduce the amount of the Series 2005-1 Demand Notes or forgive amounts payable
thereunder so that the outstanding principal amount of the Series 2005-1 Demand
Notes after such reduction or forgiveness is less than the Series 2005-1 Letter
of Credit Liquidity Amount. CRCF shall not agree to any amendment of the Series
2005-1 Demand Notes without first satisfying the Rating Agency Confirmation
Condition and the Rating Agency Consent Condition.
Section
6.18 Subrogation. In
furtherance of and not in limitation of the Surety Provider’s equitable right of
subrogation, each of the Trustee and CRCF acknowledge that, to the extent of any
payment made by the Surety Provider under the Surety Bond with respect to
interest on or principal of the Series 2005-1 Notes, including any Preference
Amount, as defined in the Surety Bond, the Surety Provider is to be fully
subrogated to the extent of such payment and any additional interest due on any
late payment, to the rights of the Series 2005-1 Noteholders under the
Indenture. Each of CRCF and the Trustee agree to such subrogation and, further,
agree to take such actions as the Surety Provider may reasonably request in
writing to evidence such subrogation.
Section
6.19 Termination
of Supplement. This
Supplement shall cease to be of further effect when all outstanding Series
2005-1 Notes theretofore authenticated and issued have been delivered (other
than destroyed, lost, or stolen Series 2005-1 Notes which have been replaced or
paid) to the Trustee for cancellation, CRCF has paid all sums payable hereunder,
the Surety Provider has been paid all Surety Provider Fees and all other Surety
Provider Reimbursement Amounts due under the Insurance Agreement, the Series
2005-1 Interest Rate Swaps have been terminated and there are no amounts due and
owing thereunder and, if the Series 2005-1 Demand Note Payment Amount on the
Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Termination Date was greater than zero, all
amounts have been withdrawn from the Series 2005-1 Cash Collateral Account in
accordance with Section 2.8(i).
Section
6.20 Condition
to Termination of CRCF’s Obligations.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1 of the Base Indenture,
so long as this Supplement is in effect, CRCF may not terminate its obligations
under the Indenture unless CRCF shall have delivered to the Surety Provider and
each Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty an Opinion of Counsel, in
form and substance acceptable to the Surety Provider and each Series 2005-1
Interest Rate Swap Counterparty, to the effect that, in the event of a
bankruptcy proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of CRCF, the Lessor
or any Lessee, the bankruptcy court would not avoid any amounts distributed to
the Series 2005-1 Noteholders, the
-53-
Surety
Provider or any Series 2005-1 Interest Rate Swap Counterparty in connection with
such termination.

This
Class A-1 Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Class A-1 Notes of the
Company, designated as its Series 2005-1 3.95% Rental
Car Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1 (herein called the “Class
A-1 Notes”), all
issued under (i) a Second Amended and Restated Base Indenture, dated as of
June 3, 2004 (such Base Indenture, as amended, supplemented or modified in
accordance with its terms exclusive of any Supplements thereto creating a new
Series of Notes, is herein called the “Base
Indenture”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Base Indenture), and (ii) a Series
2005-1 Supplement dated as of February 25, 2005 (such supplement, as may be
amended or modified, is herein called the “Series
2005-1 Supplement”) among
the Company, the Trustee and The Bank of New York, as Series 2005-1 Agent. 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. All terms used in
this Class A-1 Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings
assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture.
The Class
A-1 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by the Series 2005-1
Collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.
Principal
of the Class A-1 Notes will be pay-able on each Distribution Date specified in
and in the amounts described in the Indenture. “Distribution
Date” means
the 20th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day, commencing March 21, 2005.
Commencing
on the Distribution Date following the second Determination Date during the
Class A-1 Controlled Amortization Period or the first Determination Date after
the commencement of the Series 2005-1 Rapid Amortization Period, payments with
respect to principal will be made on the Class A-1 Notes. As described above,
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Class A-1 Note shall be due and
payable on the Class A-1 Final Distribution Date. 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.
Payments
of interest on this Class A-1 Note due and payable on each Distribution Date,
together with the installment of principal then due, if any, to the extent not
in full payment of this Class A-1 Note, shall be made by wire transfer for
credit to the account designated by the Holder of record of this Class A-l Note
(or one or more predecessor Class A-1 Notes) on the Note Register as of the
close of business on each Record Date, except that with respect to Class A-1
Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Class A-1 Note (or any
one or more predecessor Class A-1 Notes) effected by any payments made on any
Distribution Date shall be binding upon all future

transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
thereon.
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. The purchase price for such repurchase of
the Class A-1 Notes shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of
such Class A-1 Notes (determined after giving effect to any payment of principal
and interest on such Distribution Date), plus accrued and unpaid interest on
such outstanding Class A-1 Invested Amount.
As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein,
the transfer of this Class A-1 Note may be registered on the Note Regis-ter upon
surrender of this Class A-1 Note for registration of transfer at the office or
agency designated by the Company pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “Eligible
Guarantor Institution” (as
defined in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Ex-change Act), and such other documents as
the Trustee may reasonably require, and thereupon one or more new Class A-1
Notes of authorized denominations in the same aggregate principal amount will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be
charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Class A-1 Note, but
the transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
govern-mental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such
registration of transfer or exchange.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner by acceptance of a Class A-1 Note or, in the case of a
Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Class A-1 Note, covenants and agrees that
no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Company, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II,
ARAC, BRAC, CCRG or the Trustee on the Class A-1 Notes or under the Indenture or
any certificate or other writing delivered in connection therewith, against (i)
the Trustee, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC, BRAC or
CCRG, in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the
Company or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or
employee of the Trustee, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC,

partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by
applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital
contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity;
provided,
however, that
nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement
against, the assets of the Company

and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in the Indenture or
in this Class A-1 Note, subject to Section 13.18 of the Base

Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note

Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the

this Note is a non-U.S. person and providing the Noteholder’s name and address.
If the information provided in the statement changes, the Noteholder shall so
inform the Trustee within 30 days of such change.

the rights of the Holders of the Series 2005-1 Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Company with the consent of the Holders of Series 2005-1 Notes

been presented to the Trustee by Euroclear or Clearstream a certificate,
substantially in the form set out in Exhibit

exchange of the whole of this Temporary Global Note, this Temporary Global Note
shall be surrendered to the Trustee at its office in London. On an exchange of
part only of this Temporary Global Note, details of such exchange shall be
entered by or on behalf of the Company in Schedule A hereto and the relevant
space in Schedule A hereto recording such exchange shall be signed by or on
behalf of the Company. If, following the issue of a Permanent Global Note in
exchange for some of the Class A-2 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
exchanged.
Interests

and procedures for the time being of Euroclear or Clearstream. Each person who
is shown in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream as entitled to a particular
number of Class A-2 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-2 Notes. For purposes of this Temporary Global Note,
the securities account records of Euroclear or Clearstream shall, in the absence
of manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the identity of the holders of
Class A-2 Notes and of the principal amount of Class A-2 Notes represented by
this Temporary Global Note credited to the securities accounts of such holders
of Class A-2 Notes. Any state-ment issued by Euroclear or Clearstream to any
holder relating to a specified Class A-2 Note or Class A-2 Notes credited to the
securities account of such holder and stating the principal amount of such Class
A-2 Note or Class A-2 Notes and certified by Euroclear or Clearstream to be a
true record of such securities account shall, in the absence of manifest error,
be conclusive evidence of the records of Euroclear or Clearstream for the
purposes of the next preceding sentence (but without prejudice to any other
means of producing such records in evidence). 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.

Company, designated as its Series 2005-1 Floating Rate Rental Car Asset Backed
Notes, Class A-2 (herein called the “Class
A-2 Notes”), all
issued under (i) a Second Amended and Restated Base Indenture, dated as of June
3, 2004 (such Base Indenture, as amended, supplemented or modified in accordance
with its terms exclusive of any Supplements thereto creating a new Series of
Notes, is herein called the “Base
Indenture”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Base Indenture), and (ii) a Series
2005-1 Supplement dated as of February 25, 2005 (such supplement, as may be
amended or modified, is herein called the “Series
2005-1 Supplement”) among
the Company, the Trustee and The Bank of New York, as Series 2005-1 Agent. The
Base Indenture and the Series 2005-1 Supplement are referred to herein as the
“Indenture”. The
Class A-2 Notes are subject to all terms of the Indenture. All terms used in
this Class A-2 Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings
assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture.
The Class
A-2 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by the Series 2005-1
Collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.
Principal
of the Class A-2 Notes will be payable on each Distribution Date specified in
and in the amounts described in the Indenture. “Distribution
Date” means
the 20th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day, commencing March 21, 2005.
Commencing
on the Distribution Date following the second Determination Date during the
Class A-2 Controlled Amortization Period or the first Determination Date after
the commencement of the Series 2005-1 Rapid Amortization Period, payments with
respect to principal will be made on the Class A-2 Notes. As described above,

payable on the Class A-2 Final Distribution Date. 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-2 Notes may
be paid earlier, as described in the Indenture. All principal payments on the
Class A-2 Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders entitled thereto.
Payments
of interest on this Class A-2 Note due and payable on each Distribution Date,
together with the installment of principal then due, if any, to the extent not

credit to the account designated by the Holder of record of this Class A-2 Note
(or one or more predecessor Class A-2 Notes) on the Note Register as of the
close of business on each Record Date, except that with respect to Class A-2
Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Class A-2 Note (or any
one or more predecessor Class A-2 Notes) effected by any

The
Company shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the Class A-2
Note Rate to the extent lawful.
As

not in part, at the option of the Company on any Distribution Date if on such
Distribution Date the Class A-2 Invested Amount is less than or equal to 10% of
the Class A-2 Initial Invested Amount. The purchase price for such repurchase of
the Class A-2 Notes shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of
such Class A-2 Notes (determined after giving effect to any payment of principal
and interest on such Distribution Date), plus accrued
and unpaid interest on such outstanding Class A-2 Invested Amount.
As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein,
the transfer of this Class A-2 Note may be registered on the Note Register upon
surrender of this Class A-2 Note for registration of transfer at the office or
agency designated by the Company pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or

governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.

A-3-Notes”), all
issued under (i) a Second Amended and Restated Base Indenture, dated as of June
3, 2004 (such Base Indenture, as amended, supplemented or modified in accordance
with its terms exclusive of any Supplements thereto creating a new Series of
Notes, is herein called the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank
of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Base Indenture), and (ii) a Series
2005-1 Supplement dated as of February 25, 2005 (such supplement, as may be
amended or modified, is herein called the “Series
2005-1 Supplement”) among
the Company, the Trustee and The Bank of New York, as Series 2005-1 Agent. The
Base Indenture 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. All terms used in
this Class A-3 Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings
assigned to them in or pursuant to the Indenture.
The Class
A-3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by the Series 2005-1
Collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Indenture.
Principal
of the Class A-3 Notes will be payable on each Distribution Date specified in
and in the amounts described in the Indenture. “Distribution
Date” means
the 20th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day, commencing March 21, 2005.
Commencing
on the Distribution Date following the second Determination Date during the
Class A-3 Controlled Amortization Period or the first Determination Date after
the commencement of the Series 2005-1 Rapid Amortization Period, payments with
respect to principal will be made on the Class A-3 Notes. As described above,
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Class A-3 Note shall be due and
payable on the Class A-3 Final Distribution Date. 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-3 Notes may
be paid earlier, as described in the Indenture. All principal payments on the
Class A-3 Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders entitled thereto.
Payments
of interest on this Class A-3 Note due and payable on each Distribution Date,
together with the installment of principal then due, if any, to the extent not
in full payment of this Class A-3 Note, shall be made by wire transfer for
credit to the account designated by the Holder of record of this Class A-3 Note
(or one or more predecessor Class A-3 Notes) on the Note Register as of the
close of business on each Record Date, except that with respect to Class A-3
Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Class A-3 Note (or any
one or more predecessor Class A-3 Notes) effected by any

Note Rate to the extent lawful.
As
provided in the Indenture, the Class A-3 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-3 Invested Amount is less than or equal to 10% of
the Class A-3 Initial Invested Amount. The purchase price for such repurchase of
the Class A-3 Notes shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of
such Class A-3 Notes (determined after giving effect to any payment of principal
and interest on such Distribution Date), plus accrued and unpaid interest on
such outstanding Class A-3 Invested Amount.
As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein,
the transfer of this Class A-3 Note may be registered on the Note Register upon
surrender of this Class A-3 Note for registration of transfer at the office or

authorized denominations in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued

transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.

succeeding Business Day, commencing March 21, 2005.
Commencing
on the Distribution Date following the second Determination Date during the
Class A-3 Controlled Amortization Period or the first Determination Date after
the commencement of the Series 2005-1 Rapid Amortization Period, payments with
respect to prin-ci-pal will be made on the Class A-3 Notes. As described above,
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Class A-3 Note shall be due and
payable on the Class A-3 Final Distribution Date. 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
continu-ing then, in certain circumstances, principal on the Class A-3 Notes may
be paid earlier, as described in the Indenture. All principal payments on the
Class A-3 Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders entitled thereto.
Payments
of interest on this Class A-3 Note due and payable on each Distribu-tion Date,
together with the installment of principal then due, if any, to the extent not
in full pay-ment of this Class A-3 Note, shall be made by wire transfer for
credit to the account desig-nated by the Holder of record of this Class A-3 Note
(or one or more predecessor Class A-3 Notes) on the Note Register as of the
close of business on each Record Date, except that with respect to Class A-3
Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by
wire transfer in immedi-ately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Class A-3 Note (or any
one or more predeces-sor Class A-3 Notes) effected by any
Exhibit
A-3-2

payments
made on any Distribution Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of this
Class A-3 Note and of any Class A-3 Note issued upon the registration of
transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
thereon.
The
Company shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the Class A-3
Note Rate to the extent lawful.
As
provided in the Indenture, the Class A-3 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-3 Invested Amount is less than or equal to 10% of
the Class A-3 Initial Invested Amount. The purchase price for such repurchase of
the Class A-3 Notes shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of
such Class A-3 Notes (determined after giving effect to any payment of
princi-pal and interest on such Distribution Date), plus accrued
and unpaid interest on such outstanding Class A-3 Invested Amount.
As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein,
the transfer of this Class A-3 Note may be registered on the Note Register upon
surrender of this Class A-3 Note for registration of transfer at the office or
agency desig-nated by the Company pursuant to the Indenture, duly en-dorsed by,
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly exe-cuted by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “Eligible
Guarantor Institution” (as
defined in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act), and such other documents as the
Trustee may reasonably require, and thereupon one or more new Class A-3 Notes of
authorized denomina-tions in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued
to the designated transferee or trans-ferees. No service charge will be charged
for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Class A-3 Note, but the
transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner by acceptance of a Class A-3 Note or, in the case of a
Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Class A-3 Note, covenants and agrees that
no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Company, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II,
ARAC, BRAC, CCRG or the Trustee on the Class A-3 Notes or under the Indenture or
any certificate or other writing delivered in connec-tion therewith, against (i)
the Trustee, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC, BRAC or
CCRG, in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the
Company or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director or
employee of the Trustee, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC,
BRAC or CCRG, in its individ-ual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest
in the Company, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC, BRAC,
CCRG or the Trustee or of any successor or assign of Original AESOP, AESOP
Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC, BRAC, CCRG or the Trustee, in its individual
capacity, except (a) as any such Person may have expressly agreed and (b) any
such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided
by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital
contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity;
provided,
however, that
nothing contained
Exhibit
A-3-2

herein
shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of
the Company for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained
in the Indenture or in this Class A-3 Note, subject to Section 13.18 of the Base
Indenture.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner, by acceptance of a Note or, in the case of a Note
Owner, a beneficial interest in a Note, covenants and agrees that by accept-ing
the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner, as the case
may be, will not for a period of one year and one day following payment in full
of all Notes institute against the Company, or join in any institution against
the Company of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings under any United States Federal or state bankruptcy or
similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, the
Indenture or the Related Documents.
Prior to
the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Class A-3 Note, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name this Class A-3 Note (as of the day of determination or as
of such other date as may be specified in the Indenture) is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Class A-3 Note be overdue,
and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
It is the
intent of the Company, each Noteholder and each Note Owner that, for Federal,
state and local income and franchise tax purposes only, the Class A-3 Notes will
evi-dence indebtedness of the Company secured by the Series 2005-1 Collateral.
Each Noteholder and each Note Owner, by the acceptance of this Class A-3 Note,
agrees to treat this Class A-3 Note for Federal, state and local income and
franchise tax purposes as indebtedness of the Company.
Each
Holder of this Note shall provide to the Trustee at least annually an
appro-priate statement (on Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or suitable
substitute) with respect to United States federal income tax and withholding
tax, signed under penalties of perjury, certify-ing that the beneficial owner of
this Note is a non-U.S. person and providing the Noteholder’s name and address.
If the information provided in the statement changes, the Noteholder shall so
inform the Trustee within 30 days of such change.
The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amend-ment
thereof and the modi-fication of the rights and obligations of the Company and
the rights of the Holders of the Series 2005-1 Notes under the Indenture at any
time by the Company with the consent of the Holders of Series 2005-1 Notes
represent-ing more than 50% in principal amount of the aggregate outstanding
amount of the Series 2005-1 Notes which are affected by such amendment or
modification. The Inden-ture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of
Series 2005-1 Notes representing specified percentages of the aggregate
outstanding amount of the Series 2005-1 Notes, on behalf of the Holders of all
the Series 2005-1 Notes, to waive com-pliance by the Company with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Class A-3
Note (or any one or more predecessor Class A-3 Notes) shall be conclusive and
bind-ing upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Class A-3 Note and
of any Class A-3 Note issued
Exhibit
A-3-2

upon the
registration of trans-fer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Class A-3 Note. The
Indenture also permits the Trustee to amend or waive certain terms and
condi-tions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of Holders of the
Series 2005-1 Notes issued thereunder.
The term
“Company” as used in this Class A-3 Note includes any successor to the Company
under the Indenture.
The Class
A-3 Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations as provided in
the Indenture, subject to certain limitations set forth therein.
This
Class A-3 Note and the Indenture shall be construed in accordance with the law
of the State of New York and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties
hereunder and thereunder shall be determined in accordance with such
law.
No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Class A-3 Note or of
the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Class
A-3 Note at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency herein
prescribed.
Prior to
the Exchange Date (as defined below), payments (if any) on this Tempo-rary
Global Note will only be paid to the extent that there is presented by
Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”), or
Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as opera-tor of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) to the
Trustee at its office in London a certificate, sub-stantially in the form set
out in Exhibit
B to the
Base Indenture, to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a
person entitled to a Note (as shown by its records) a certifi-cate from such
person in or substantially in the form of Exhibit
C to the
Base Indenture. After the Exchange Date the holder of this Temporary Global Note
will not be entitled to receive any payment hereon, until this Tempo-rary Global
Note is exchanged in full for a Permanent Global Note. This Tem-porary Global
Note shall in all other respects be entitled to the same benefits as the
Permanent Global Notes under the Indenture.
On or
after the date (the “Exchange
Date”) which
is the date that is the 40th day after the completion of the distribution of the
relevant Series, inter-ests in this Temporary Global Note may be exchanged (free
of charge) for interests in a Permanent Global Note in the form of Exhibit
A-3-3 to the
Series 2005-1 Supplement upon presentation of this Temporary Global Note at the
office in London of the Trustee (or at such other place outside the United
States of America, its territories and possessions as the Trustee may agree).
The Permanent Global Note shall be so issued and delivered in exchange for only
that portion of this Temporary Global Note in respect of which there shall have
been presented to the Trustee by Euroclear or Clearstream a certificate,
substan-tially in the form set out in Exhibit
B to the
Base Inden-ture, to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a
person entitled to a Note (as shown by its records) a certificate from such
per-son in or substan-tially in the form of Exhibit
C to the
Base Indenture.

On an
exchange of the whole of this Temporary Global Note, this Temporary Global Note
shall be surren-dered to the Trustee at its office in London. On an exchange of
part only of this Temporary Global Note, details of such exchange shall be
entered by or on behalf of the Company in Schedule A hereto and the relevant
space in Schedule A hereto recording such exchange shall be signed by or on
behalf of the Company. If, following the issue of a Permanent Global Note in
exchange for some of the Class A-3 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 endors-ing Part I of Schedule A of the
Perma-nent 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.
Interests
in this Temporary Global Note will be transferable in accordance with the rules
and procedures for the time being of Euroclear or Clearstream. Each person who
is shown in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream as entitled to a particular
number of Class A-3 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-3 Notes. For purposes of this Temporary Global Note,
the securities account records of Euroclear or Clearstream shall, in the absence
of manifest error, be conclusive evi-dence of the identity of the holders of
Class A-3 Notes and of the principal amount of Class A-3 Notes represented by
this Temporary Global Note credited to the securities accounts of such holders
of Class A-3 Notes. Any state-ment issued by Euroclear or Clearstream to any
holder relat-ing to a specified Class A-3 Note or Class A-3 Notes credited to
the securities account of such holder and stating the principal amount of such
Class A-3 Note or Class A-3 Notes and certified by Euroclear or Clearstream to
be a true record of such securities account shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive evidence of the records of Euroclear or Clearstream for the
purposes of the next preceding sentence (but without prejudice to any other
means of producing such records in evidence). Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary contained in this Tem-porary Global Note, the Company irrevocably
agrees, for the benefit of such holder and its suc-cessors and assigns, that,
subject to the provi-sions of the Indenture, each holder or its successors or
assigns may file any claim, take any action or institute any proceed-ing to
enforce, directly against the Company, the obliga-tion of the Company hereunder
to pay any amount due in respect of each Class A-3 Note represented by this
Temporary Global Note which is credited to such holder’s secu-rities ac-count
with Euroclear or Clearstream without the production of this Temporary Global
Note.

Company, desig-nated as its Series 2005-1 Floating Rate Rental Car Asset Backed
Notes, Class A-3 (herein called the “Class
A-3 Notes”), all
issued under (i) a Second Amended and Restated Base Indenture, dated as of June
3, 2004 (such Base Indenture, as amended, supplemented or modified in accordance
with its terms exclusive of any Supplements thereto creating a new Series of
Notes, is herein called the “Base
Inden-ture”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”, which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Base Indenture), and (ii) a Series
2005-1 Supplement dated as of February 25, 2005 (such supplement, as may be
amended or modified, is herein called the “Series
2005-1 Supplement”) among
the Com-pany, the Trustee and The Bank of New York, as Series 2005-1 Agent. 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. All terms used in
this Class A-3 Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings
assigned to them in or pursuant to the Inden-ture.
The Class
A-3 Notes are and will be equally and ratably secured by the Series 2005-1
Collateral pledged as security therefor as provided in the
Inden-ture.
Principal
of the Class A-3 Notes will be payable on each Distribution Date specified in
and in the amounts described in the Indenture. “Distribution
Date” means
the 20th day of each month, or, if any such date is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day, commencing March 21, 2005.
Commencing
on the Distribution Date following the second Determination Date during the
Class A-3 Controlled Amortization Period or the first Determination Date after
the commencement of the Series 2005-1 Rapid Amortization Period, payments with
respect to princi-pal will be made on the Class A-3 Notes. As described above,
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Class A-3 Note shall be due and
payable on the Class A-3 Final Distribu-tion Date. 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-3 Notes may
be paid earlier, as described in the Indenture. All principal payments on the
Class A-3 Notes shall be made pro rata to the
Noteholders entitled thereto.
Payments
of interest on this Class A-3 Note due and payable on each Distribu-tion Date,
together with the installment of principal then due, if any, to the extent not
in full pay-ment of this Class A-3 Note, shall be made by wire transfer for
credit to the account desig-nated by the Holder of record of this Class A-3 Note
(or one or more predecessor Class A-3 Notes) on the Note Register as of the
close of business on each Record Date, except that with respect to Class A-3
Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of the Clearing
Agency (initially, such nominee to be Cede & Co.), payments will be made by
wire transfer in immedi-ately available funds to the account designated by such
nominee. Any reduction in the principal amount of this Class A-3 Note (or any
one or more predeces-sor Class A-3 Notes) effected by any
Exhibit
A-3-3

payments
made on any Distribution Date shall be binding upon all future Holders of this
Class A-3 Note and of any Class A-3 Note issued upon the registration of
transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not noted
thereon.
The
Company shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the Class A-3
Note Rate to the extent lawful.
As
provided in the Indenture, the Class A-3 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-3 Invested Amount is less than or equal to 10% of
the Class A-3 Initial Invested Amount. The purchase price for such repurchase of
the Class A-3 Notes shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of
such Class A-3 Notes (determined after giving effect to any payment of
princi-pal and interest on such Distribution Date), plus accrued
and unpaid interest on such outstanding Class A-3 Invested Amount.
As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein,
the transfer of this Class A-3 Note may be registered on the Note Register upon
surrender of this Class A-3 Note for registration of transfer at the office or
agency desig-nated by the Company pursuant to the Indenture, duly en-dorsed by,
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee duly exe-cuted by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly autho-rized in
writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “Eligible
Guarantor Institution” (as
defined in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act), and such other documents as the
Trustee may reasonably require, and thereupon one or more new Class A-3 Notes of
authorized denomina-tions in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued
to the designated transferee or trans-ferees. No service charge will be charged
for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Class A-3 Note, but the
transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration
of transfer or exchange.
Each
Noteholder or Note Owner by acceptance of a Class A-3 Note or, in the case of a
Note Owner, a beneficial interest in a Class A-3 Note, covenants and agrees that
no recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the
obligations of the Company, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II,
ARAC, BRAC, CCRG or the Trustee on the Class A-3 Notes or under the Indenture or
any certificate or other writing delivered in connec-tion therewith, against (i)
the Trustee, Original AESOP, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, ARAC, BRAC or
CCRG, in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the

contribution or failure to pay any installment or call owing to such entity;
provided,
however, that
nothing contained

shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of
the Company for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained

the benefits of the Indenture that such Noteholder or Note Owner, as the case
may be, will not for a period of one year and one day following payment in full

evidenced hereby shall be due, whether by mandatory prepayment, acceleration or
otherwise (the “Maturity

rights and remedies hereunder. Such costs of collection shall bear interest at
the Default Rate until paid.

the Demand Note Issuer shall fail to pay any principal, interest or other
amounts on the date of written demand for payment; provided that
such demand is made prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day,

of protest, demand and dishonor, and nonpayment of this Demand Note, and agrees
that Holder shall have the right, without notice, to grant any extension or

No
Waiver. No
delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising its rights under this
Demand Note, or delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising its rights
hereunder, or course of conduct relating thereto, shall operate as a waiver of
such rights or any other right of Holder, nor shall any waiver by Holder of any
such right or rights on any one occasion be deemed a bar to, or waiver of, the
same right or rights on any future occasion. Acceptance by Holder of any payment
after its due date shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to require prompt
payment when due of all other sums, and acceptance of any payment after Holder
has declared the indebtedness evidenced by this Demand Note due and payable

Holder.
