the CAC Credit Facility Documents ("Comerica"), and each other creditor who

becomes a party hereto after the date hereof.

 

      Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the

meaning set forth in Appendix A attached hereto and made part of this Agreement.

 

                                   BACKGROUND

 

      A. Pursuant to the terms of the various Dealer Agreements between CAC and

the Dealers, Collections from a particular Pool are first used to pay certain

collection costs, CAC's servicing fee and to pay back the Pool's Advance

balance. After the Advance balance under such Pool has been reduced to zero, the

Dealer to whom the Pool relates has a contractual right under the related Dealer

Agreement to receive a portion of any further Collections with respect to the

Pool (such portion of further Collections otherwise payable to the Dealer is

referred to herein as "Back-end Dealer Payments"), subject to CAC's right of

offset as described in paragraph G below.

 

      B. CAC has granted a security interest in CAC's rights with respect to its

Pools (to the extent not released) and related assets generally under the CAC

Credit Facility Documents to Comerica, as collateral agent for the banks which

are parties thereto.

 

      C. CAC and the Trustee entered into a transaction as set forth in the

2003-1 Securitization Documents (the "2003-1 Securitization") pursuant to which

the security interest with respect to certain specifically identified Pools and

related assets was released by Comerica, CAC sold and contributed such Pools and

related assets to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Funding 2003-1, which

subsequently sold such Pools and related assets to the 2003-1 Trust, a trust the

depositor of which is Funding 2003-1, and the 2003-1 Trust granted the Trustee a

security interest in its right, title and interest in and to such Pools and

related assets (such Pools and related assets are referred to herein as the

"2003-1 Pools").

 

       D. CAC, Wachovia and certain other parties entered into a transaction as

set forth in the Wachovia Securitization Documents (the "Wachovia

Securitization") pursuant to which the security interest with respect to certain

specifically identified Pools and related assets was (and during the revolving

period under the Wachovia Securitization Documents will be) released by

Comerica, CAC contributed (and will contribute) such Pools and related assets to

its wholly-

owned subsidiary, Warehouse Funding, and Warehouse Funding granted Wachovia, in

its capacity as collateral agent, a security interest in Warehouse Funding's

rights to such Pools and related assets (such Pools and related assets are

referred to herein as the "Wachovia Pools").

 

      E. CAC and the Trustee are entering into a transaction as set forth in the

2004-1 Securitization Documents (the "2004-1 Securitization") pursuant to which

the security interest with respect to certain specifically identified Pools and

related assets is being (and during the revolving period under the 2004-1

Securitization Documents will be) released by Comerica, CAC is (and will be)

selling and contributing such Pools and related assets to its wholly-owned

subsidiary, Funding 2004-1, which is subsequently selling (and will sell) such

Pools and related assets to the 2004-1 Trust, a trust the depositor of which is

Funding 2004-1, and the 2004-1 Trust is granting the Trustee a security interest

in its right, title and interest in and to such Pools and related assets (such

Pools and related assets are referred to herein as the "2004-1 Pools").

 

      F. Comerica retains a security interest in Pools and related assets which

(i) have not been released, and a security interest encumbering such Pools and

related assets has not been granted to the Trustee, pursuant to the 2003-1

Securitization, (ii) have not been (and will not be) released, and a security

interest encumbering such Pools and related assets has not been and will not be

granted to Wachovia pursuant to the Wachovia Securitization, and (iii) are not

being (and will not be) released, and a security interest encumbering such Pools

and related assets is not being granted to the Trustee, pursuant to the 2004-1

Securitization (such unreleased Pools and related assets are referred to herein

as the "Comerica Pools").

 

      G. The Dealer Agreements permit CAC and its assignees, under certain

circumstances, to set off any Collections received with respect to any Pool of a

Dealer against Advances under other Pools of that Dealer and such set off rights

are authorized and permitted under the CAC Credit Facility Documents, the 2003-1

Securitization Documents, the Wachovia Securitization Documents and the 2004-1

Securitization Documents.

 

      H. The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of CAC or its assigns,

pursuant to the Dealer Agreements, to set off Collections received with respect

to a Pool against the outstanding balance under any other Pool are not intended,

and should not be permitted, to be used to prejudice the collateral position of

any of the parties hereto, and therefore the exercise of such rights should be

limited to Back-end Dealer Payments.

 

      In consideration of the mutual premises and promises set forth herein and

other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is

hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

                                   AGREEMENTS

2003-1 Securitization Documents to which it is a party does not and shall not

Collections) or to any Back-end Dealer Payments and shall not assert any claim

thereto. The 2004-1 Trust agrees that the lien and security interest granted to

the Trustee pursuant to the 2004-1 Securitization Documents to which it is a

party does not and shall not attach to any Comerica Pools, Wachovia Pools or

collected under any Pools which are Back-end Dealer Payments that have been set

amounts owing under the Wachovia Pools, and (ii) relinquishes all rights it has

or may have to require CAC, individually or as servicer, any successor servicer

or Warehouse Funding to use Collections on its behalf contrary to clause (b)(i).

Wachovia, as collateral agent, agrees that the lien and security interest

granted to it pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement does not and shall not

attach to any Comerica Pools, 2003-1 Pools or 2004-1 Pools (or related

Collections) or to any Back-end Dealer Payments and shall not assert any claim

thereto.

 

      (c) RELEASE BY COMERICA. Comerica (i) releases any and all rights in and

to any Collections with respect to the Wachovia Pools, the 2003-1 Pools and the

2004-1 Pools, other than amounts collected under the Wachovia Pools, the 2003-1

Pools or the 2004-1 Pools which are owed to Dealers as Back-end Dealer Payments

and which are subject to set off by CAC pursuant to the related Dealer Agreement

and which have not been set off by CAC or by Comerica pursuant to the CAC Credit

Facility Documents against amounts owing under the Wachovia Pools, the 2003-1

Pools or the 2004-1 Pools, and (ii) relinquishes all rights it has
