in the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Percentage for such date

(or the occurrence of an event described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, without the lapse of a period of sixty (60) consecutive
days) with respect to one or more of the Demand Note Issuers, the Trustee shall not have delivered such Demand Notice to any Demand Note
Issuer on the second Business Day preceding the Series 2026-5 Final Distribution Date, then, in the case of (x) or (y) the Trustee shall
draw on the Multi-Series Letters of Credit by 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such Business Day an amount equal to the lesser of (a)

to demand for payment thereunder) and (b) the Series 2026-5 Allocated Multi-Series Letter of Credit Amount on such Business Day by presenting
to each Multi-Series Letter of Credit Provider a draft accompanied by a Certificate of Unpaid Demand Note Demand; provided, however,

39
the amount to be deposited in the Series
2026-5 Distribution Account with respect to the Series 2026-5 Final Distribution Date is or will be less than the Series 2026-5 Senior

Trustee shall not be required to deliver such Demand Notice to such Demand Note Issuer. The Trustee shall cause the proceeds of any demand
on the Series 2026-5 Demand Note to be deposited into the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account.
(ii)
Letter of Credit Draw. In the event that either (x) on or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior
to such Distribution Date, any Demand Note Issuer shall have failed to pay to the Trustee or deposit into the Series 2026-5 Distribution
Account the amount specified in such Demand Notice in whole or in part or (y) due to the occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy (or the

with respect to any Demand Note Issuer, the Trustee shall not have delivered such Demand Notice to any Demand Note Issuer on the second

Section 2.7.
Series 2026-5 Reserve Account.
(a) Establishment of Series 2026-5 Reserve Account.
ABRCF shall establish and maintain in the name of the Series 2026-5 Agent for the benefit of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders,
the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders, or cause to be established and maintained, an account (the “Series 2026-5
Reserve Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the
Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders. The Series 2026-5 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 2026-5 Reserve 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 either “Baa3” by Moody’s
or “A”, in the case of a long term rating, or “F1”, in the case of a short term rating, in each case by Fitch,
then ABRCF shall, within thirty (30) days of such reduction, establish a new Series 2026-5 Reserve Account with a new Qualified Institution.
If the Series 2026-5 Reserve Account is not maintained in accordance with the previous sentence, ABRCF shall establish a new Series 2026-5
Reserve Account, within ten (10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact, which complies with such sentence, and shall instruct
the Series 2026-5 Agent in writing to transfer all cash and investments from the non-qualifying Series 2026-5 Reserve Account into
the new Series 2026-5 Reserve Account. Initially, the Series 2026-5 Reserve Account will be established with The Bank of New York Mellon
Trust Company, N.A.
(b)
Administration of the Series 2026-5 Reserve Account. The Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the Series
2026-5 Reserve Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 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 2026-5 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; provided further, that in the case of Permitted Investments held in the Series 2026-5 Reserve Account and so long as any
Series 2026-5 Note is rated by Fitch (x) any Permitted Investment set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (vi) and (vii) of the definition thereof
will have a rating of “AA-” or “F1+” by Fitch and (y) any Permitted Investment set forth in clause (v) of the
definition thereof will either have a rating of “AAAmmf” by Fitch or, if such fund is not rated by Fitch, the then highest
rating from two nationally recognized investment rating agencies (other than Fitch). All such Permitted Investments will be credited to
the Series 2026-5 Reserve 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

as a securities intermediary is New York, (iii) that each item of property (whether investment property, financial asset, security, instrument
or cash) credited to the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account shall be treated as a financial asset (as defined in Section

Account.
If the Trustee does not receive
the notice from the Administrator described in the first paragraph of this Section 2.8(b) on or prior to the date that is two (2) Business

excess, if any, of the Series 2026-5 Required Enhancement Amount over the Series 2026-5 Enhancement Amount, excluding the amount allocated
to the Series 2026-5 Notes and available under such Multi-Series Letter of Credit issued by such Multi-Series Letter of Credit Provider,

is greater than zero, instruct the Trustee in writing to draw on the Multi-Series Letters of Credit. Upon receipt of any such notice by
the Trustee on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, the Trustee shall, by 12:00 noon (New York City time) on
such Business Day draw an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Series 2026-5 Demand Note Payment Amount and (ii) the Series

2026-5 Cash Collateral Percentage and (b) the lesser of the amounts referred to in clause (i) and (ii) on such Business Day on the Multi-Series
Letters of Credit as calculated by the Administrator and provided in writing to the Trustee.
(e)

47
the terms of this Supplement, the Administrator
shall instruct the Trustee, in writing, to draw on each Multi-Series Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Pro Rata Share of the
Multi-Series Letter of Credit Provider issuing such Multi-Series Letter of Credit of the amount of such draw on the Multi-Series Letters
of Credit.
(f)
Establishment of Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account. On or prior to the date of any drawing under a Multi-Series Letter
of Credit pursuant to Section 2.8(b), (c) or (d) above, ABRCF shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee for the benefit
of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders and the Class D Noteholders, or cause to be established and
maintained, an account (the “Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account”), bearing a designation clearly indicating that
the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Class A Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders, the Class C Noteholders and
the Class D Noteholders. The Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral 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 2026-5 Cash Collateral 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 depository
institution or trust company shall be reduced to below either “Baa3” by Moody’s or “A”, in the case of a
long term rating, or “F1”, in the case of a short term rating, in each case by Fitch, then ABRCF shall, within thirty (30)
days of such reduction, establish a new Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account with a new Qualified Institution or a new 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 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account. If a new Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account is established, ABRCF
shall instruct the Trustee in writing to transfer all cash and investments from the non-qualifying Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account
into the new Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account.
(g)
Administration of the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account. ABRCF may instruct (by standing instructions or otherwise)
the institution maintaining the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral
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 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account is held with the Paying Agent, in which case such investment may mature on such Distribution
Date so long as such funds shall be available for withdrawal on or prior to such Distribution Date; provided further, that in the
case of Permitted Investments held in the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account and so long as any Series 2026-5 Note is rated by Fitch
(x) any Permitted Investment set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (vi) and (vii) of the definition thereof will have a rating of “AA-”
or “F1+” by Fitch and (y) any Permitted Investment set forth in clause (v) of the definition thereof will either have a rating
of “AAAmmf” by Fitch or, if such fund is not rated by Fitch, the then highest rating from two nationally recognized investment
rating agencies (other than Fitch). All such Permitted Investments will be credited to the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral 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
48
the Trustee by causing the Trustee to become
the registered holder of such securities. The Trustee shall, at the expense of ABRCF, take such action as is required to maintain the
Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted Investments credited to the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account. ABRCF shall not
direct the Trustee to dispose of (or permit the disposal of) any Permitted Investment prior to the maturity thereof to the extent such
disposal would result in a loss of the purchase price of such Permitted Investment. In the absence of written investment instructions
hereunder, funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account shall remain uninvested.
(h)
Earnings from Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account. All interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid
on funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account shall be deemed to be on deposit therein and available for distribution.
(i)
Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account Surplus. In the event that the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account Surplus on any
Distribution Date (or, after the Multi-Series Letter of Credit Termination Date, on any date) is greater than zero, the Trustee, acting
in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrator, shall withdraw from the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account an amount
equal to the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account Surplus and shall pay such amount: first, to the Multi-Series Letter of Credit
Providers to the extent of any unreimbursed drawings under the related Series 2026-5 Reimbursement Agreement, for application in accordance
with the provisions of the related Series 2026-5 Reimbursement Agreement, and, second, to ABRCF any remaining amount.
(j)
Termination of Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account. Upon the termination of this Supplement in accordance with its terms,
the Trustee, acting in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrator, after the prior payment of all amounts owing to
the Series 2026-5 Noteholders and payable from the Series 2026-5 Cash Collateral Account as provided herein, shall withdraw from the Series
2026-5 Cash Collateral Account all amounts on deposit therein (to the extent not withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.8(i) above) and
shall pay such amounts: first, to the Multi-Series Letter of Credit Providers to the extent of any unreimbursed drawings under
the related Series 2026-5 Reimbursement Agreement, for application in accordance with the provisions of the related Series 2026-5 Reimbursement
Agreement, and, second, to ABRCF any remaining amount.
Section 2.9.
Series 2026-5 Distribution Account.
(a) Establishment of Series 2026-5 Distribution
Account. ABRCF shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2026-5 Noteholders, or cause
to be established and maintained, an account (the “Series 2026-5 Distribution Account”), bearing a designation clearly
indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Series 2026-5 Noteholders. The Series 2026-5 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 2026-5
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 either “Baa3” by
Moody’s or “A”, in the case of a long term rating, or “F1”, in the case of a short term rating, in each
case by Fitch, then ABRCF shall, within thirty (30) days of such reduction, establish a new
49
Series 2026-5 Distribution Account with a new Qualified Institution. If
the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account is not maintained in accordance with the previous sentence, ABRCF shall establish a new Series
2026-5 Distribution Account, within ten (10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact, which complies with such sentence,
and shall instruct the Series 2026-5 Agent in writing to transfer all cash and investments from the non-qualifying Series 2026-5 Distribution
Account into the new Series 2026-5 Distribution Account. Initially, the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account will be established with The
Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.
(b)
Administration of the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account. The Administrator may instruct the institution maintaining the
Series 2026-5 Distribution Account to invest funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 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 2026-5 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 2026-5 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 ABRCF, take such action as is required to maintain
the Trustee’s security interest in the Permitted Investments credited to the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account. ABRCF shall not
direct the Trustee to dispose of (or permit the disposal of) any Permitted Investment prior to the maturity thereof to the extent such
disposal would result in a loss of the purchase price of such Permitted Investment. In the absence of written investment instructions
hereunder, funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account shall remain uninvested.
(c)
Earnings from Series 2026-5 Distribution Account. All interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid
on funds on deposit in the Series 2026-5 Distribution Account shall be deemed to be on deposit and available for distribution.

Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Series 2026-5 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 2026-5
Distribution Account. The Series 2026-5 Distribution Account Collateral shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee for

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 2026-5 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

of Notes, which shall include, as applicable: (i) its name or designation, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Notes of such Series
to be issued or the method for determining the aggregate principal amount of Notes if such Series will have a variable principal amount,
(iii) the Note Rate (or the method for calculating such Note Rate) with respect to such Series, (iv) the interest payment date or dates
and the date or dates from which interest shall accrue, (v) the method of allocating Collections with respect to such Series and the

that do not (subject to Section 2.3(b) and Article 12 hereof) change the terms of any Outstanding Series of Notes or otherwise
materially conflict with the provisions of this Indenture and that do not prevent the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Confirmation
Condition with respect to the issuance of such new Series (all such terms, the “Principal Terms” of such Series);
(b)
(i) A Supplement may specify that the related Series of Notes (each, a “Segregated Series”) will, in addition
to the Enhancement, have Collateral that is to be solely for the benefit of the Noteholders of such Segregated Series of Notes (such Collateral
being referred to as “Series-Specific Collateral”); provided, however, that no such Segregated Series
of Notes will be issued unless (x) the Rating Agency Confirmation Condition is met, (y) ABRCF shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate to the effect that the issuance of such Segregated Series of Notes will not have a material adverse effect upon the Noteholders
of any Series of Notes outstanding at the time of the issuance of the Segregated Series of Notes, and (z) the applicable Supplement provides,
in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for the changes and modifications to the Indenture and the other Related Documents as are described
in clause (ii) below.
(ii) In
the event any Segregated Series of Notes is issued, the related Supplement will provide that (A) the Administrator will identify to the
Trustee the Collateral for such Segregated Series of Notes such that (x) the Series-Specific Collateral will secure only the Segregated
Series of Notes to which such Series-Specific Collateral is applicable and (y) the Noteholders with respect to any other Series of Notes
will not be entitled to the benefit of such Series-Specific Collateral, (B) the Trustee will adjust the allocations and distributions
to be made under the Indenture at the written direction of the Administrator so that the Noteholders with respect to the Segregated Series
of Notes will be entitled to allocations and distributions arising solely from the Series-Specific Collateral applicable to such Segregated
Series of Notes and the Noteholders with respect to the non-Segregated Series of Notes will be entitled to allocations and distributions
arising solely from the non-Series-Specific Collateral, (C) the Trustee will act as collateral agent under the Indenture (and in such
capacity the Trustee shall (x) establish and maintain a master collection account, and one or more segregated collection accounts, into
which Collections allocated to all Series of Notes will be deposited and, after such deposit, further allocated among one or more Segregated
Series of Notes and the non-Segregated Series of Notes and (y) hold its lien encumbering the non-Series-Specific Collateral for the benefit
of the non-
(7)
Segregated Series of Notes and hold its lien
encumbering the Series-Specific Collateral for the benefit of the Segregated Series of Notes), (D) the Administrator will designate on
its computer system the source of the funds for the financing of each Vehicle (as between one or more Segregated Series of Notes and the
non-segregated Series of Notes, the “Financing Provider” with respect to such Series of Notes), (E) the Noteholders
of any Segregated Series of Notes will, subject to the limitations contained in this Base Indenture and the applicable Supplement, be
entitled to direct the Trustee in writing to exercise the remedies under the Indenture solely on behalf of such Segregated Series of Notes,
(F) separate monthly reports and other information will be furnished under the Indenture for the Series-Specific Collateral, which monthly
reports and other information will contain substantially the same type of information as the monthly reports provided under the Indenture
prior to the issuance of such Segregated Series of Notes, (G) a separate segregated loan agreement and separate segregated leases pertaining
solely to the Series-Specific Collateral will be executed and delivered by ABRCF, as lender, AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II, as borrower,
the Lessees, as lessees, and, if applicable, ABCR, as guarantor, (H) to the extent specified in the Supplement for such Segregated Series
of Notes, ABRCF and AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II, as the case may be, will take such actions as are necessary to perfect the Trustee’s
interest on behalf of the Noteholders of such Series in the Series-Specific Collateral, (I) amendments will be made to this Indenture
and the other Related Documents, if necessary, to reflect the foregoing, which amendments will, among other things, provide for revisions
to the terms “Aggregate Asset Amount”, “Required Aggregate Asset Amount”, “Collateral”, “Collection
Account”, “ABRCF Agreements”, “ABRCF Obligations”, “Loan Agreements”, “Leases”,
“Related Documents”, “Aggregate Invested Amount” and “Requisite Investors” and such other terms as
may be appropriate to reflect the creation of the Segregated Series, provided that any such amendment shall not have a material adverse
effect (excluding any impact from the dilution of the percentage interests in the Collateral or voting percentage of the existing Noteholders
as a result of such issuance) on the Noteholders of any Series unless the Required Noteholders of such Series shall have given their prior
written consent thereto (and, with respect to each Series, the Trustee may conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate of AESOP
Leasing and AESOP Leasing II as sufficient evidence of such lack of a material adverse effect), (J) the relative rights and priorities
with respect to the Series-Specific Collateral with respect to such Segregated Series of Notes are adequately defined, and (K) references
herein to “all” Series of Notes (other than as specifically stated herein) shall be modified to refer to all Series of Notes
other than any Segregated Series of Notes which may hereafter be issued.
Section 2.4.
Execution and Authentication. (a) An Authorized Officer shall sign
the Notes for ABRCF by manual, facsimile or electronically scanned signature. If an Authorized Officer whose signature is on a Note no
longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.
(b)
At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, ABRCF may deliver Notes of any particular
Series executed by ABRCF to the Trustee for authentication, together with one or more Company Orders for the authentication and delivery
of such Notes, and the Trustee, in accordance with such Company Order and this Indenture, shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.
(c)
No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate
of authentication substantially in the
(8)
form provided for herein, duly executed by
the Trustee by the manual signature of a Trust Officer (and the Luxembourg agent (the “Luxembourg Agent”), if such
Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and if the Luxembourg Stock Exchange so requires). Such signatures on such certificate
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that the Note has been duly authenticated under this Indenture. The Trustee may appoint
an authenticating agent acceptable to ABRCF to authenticate Notes. Unless limited by the term of such appointment, an authenticating agent
may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication
by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with ABRCF or an Affiliate of ABRCF. The Trustee’s
certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:
This is one of the Notes
of a series issued under the within mentioned Indenture.
THE BANK OF NEW YORK,
as Trustee
By:
Authorized Signatory
(d)
Each Note shall be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Trustee.
(e)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by ABRCF,
and ABRCF shall deliver such Note to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.14 together with a written statement
(which need not comply with Section 13.3 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Note has never
been issued and sold by ABRCF, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
Section 2.5.
Form of Notes; Book Entry Provisions; Title.
(a) Restricted
Global Note. If provided for in an applicable Supplement, any Series of Notes (other than any Series of Variable Funding Notes or
Series of Registered Notes), or any class of such Series, to be issued in the United States will be in registered form and sold
initially to “institutional accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities
Act (each an “Institutional Accredited Investor”) in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act and thereafter (i) to “qualified institutional buyers” (each a “Qualified Institutional Buyer”)
within the meaning of, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”), (ii) outside the United
States to a non-U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act) in a transaction in compliance with Regulation
S of the Securities Act, (iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (iv) in reliance on another
exemption under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States,
and as provided in the applicable Supplement and prior to any such sale, each such purchaser shall be deemed to have represented and agreed
as follows:
(9)
(1) It
is an Institutional Accredited Investor and is acquiring the Notes for its own institutional account or for the account of an Institutional
Accredited Investor;
(2) It
understands that the Notes purchased by it will be offered, and may be transferred, only in a transaction not involving any public offering
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that, if in the future it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Notes, such
Notes may be resold, pledged or transferred only (a) to a person who the seller reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer
that purchases for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge
or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (b) outside the United States to a non-U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Regulation
S of the Securities Act) in a transaction in compliance with Regulation S of the Securities Act, (c) pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act or (d) in reliance on another exemption under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any state of the United States;
(3) It
understands that the Notes will bear a legend substantially as set forth in Section 2.10(a); and
(4) It
acknowledges that the Trustee, ABRCF, any underwriter, each Placement Agent for such Series of Notes and their affiliates, and others
will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgements, representations and agreements. If it is acquiring any Notes
for the account of one or more Institutional Accredited Investors, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to
each such account and that it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgements, representations and agreements on behalf of each
such account.
In addition, such purchaser
shall be responsible for providing additional information or certification, as shall be reasonably requested by the Trustee, ABRCF or
any Placement Agent for such Series of Notes, to support the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgements, representations and
agreements, it being understood that such additional information is not intended to create additional restrictions on the transfer of
the Notes. Such Series of Notes (other than any Series of Variable Funding Notes or
Series of Registered Notes) shall be issued in the form of and represented by one or more permanent global Notes in fully registered
form without interest coupons (each, a “Restricted Global Note”), substantially in the form set forth in the applicable
Supplement, with such legends as may be applicable thereto, which shall be deposited on behalf of the subscribers for the Notes represented
thereby with a custodian for DTC, and registered in the name of DTC or a nominee of DTC, duly executed by ABRCF and authenticated by the
Trustee as provided in Section 2.4 for credit to the accounts of the subscribers at DTC. The aggregate initial principal amount
of a Restricted Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the custodian for DTC,
DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as hereinafter provided.
(b) Temporary
Global Note; Permanent Global Note. Any Series of Notes (other than any Series of Variable Funding Notes or
Series of Registered Notes), or any class of such Series, offered and sold outside of the United States will be offered and sold
in reliance on Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the Securities Act and shall initially be issued in the form of
(10)
one or more temporary global Notes (each, a
“Temporary Global Note”) in fully registered form without interest coupons substantially in the form set forth in the
applicable Supplement with such legends as may be applicable thereto, registered in the name of DTC or a nominee of DTC, duly executed
by ABRCF and authenticated by the Trustee as provided in Section 2.4, for credit to the subscribers’ accounts at Euroclear
Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of Euroclear, or Clearstream. Interests in a Temporary Global Note will be exchangeable, in whole or in part,
for interests in a permanent global note (a “Permanent Global Note”) in fully registered form without interest coupons,
representing Notes of the same Series, substantially in the form set forth in the applicable Supplement, in accordance with the provisions
of the Temporary Global Note and this Indenture. Beneficial interests in a Temporary Global Note may only be held by the agent members
of Euroclear and Clearstream. The aggregate initial principal amount of the Temporary Global Note may from time to time be increased or
decreased by adjustments made on the records of the custodian for DTC, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as hereinafter provided.
(c) Variable
Funding Notes. Any Series of variable funding notes shall initially be sold to investors in reliance on an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. Any such Series of Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more variable funding notes (each,
a “Variable Funding Note”) in fully registered form without interest coupons substantially in the form set forth in
the applicable Supplement with such legends as may be applicable thereto, duly executed by ABRCF and authenticated by the Trustee as provided
in Section 2.4. The aggregate outstanding principal amount of a Series of Variable Funding Notes may from time to time be increased
or decreased in accordance with the applicable Supplement. The Distribution
Date for any Series of Variable Funding Notes shall be the same as the Payment Date.
(d) Registered
Notes. Any Series of Notes to be issued pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (such Notes, “Registered
Notes”) shall be in the form set forth in the applicable Supplement with such legends as may be applicable thereto.
Section 2.6.
Registrar and Paying Agent. (a) ABRCF shall (i) maintain an office
or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and (ii) appoint
a paying agent (which shall satisfy the eligibility criteria set forth in Section 10.8(a)) (“Paying Agent”)
at whose office or agency Notes may be presented for payment. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and
exchange (the “Note Register”). ABRCF may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents.
The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent and the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrars.
ABRCF may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Noteholder. ABRCF shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Registrar, Paying Agent
and agent for service of notices and demands in connection with the Notes.
(b)
ABRCF shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture. Such agency agreement shall
implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. ABRCF shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address
of any such Agent. If ABRCF fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent and a Trust Officer has actual knowledge of such failure, or
if ABRCF fails to give the foregoing notice, the
(11)
Trustee shall act as such, and shall be entitled
to appropriate compensation in accordance with this Indenture, until ABRCF shall appoint a replacement Registrar and Paying Agent.
Section 2.7.
Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. (a) ABRCF will cause each Paying
Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee
(and if the Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will:
(i)
hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled
thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as
herein provided;
(ii)
give the Trustee notice of any default by ABRCF (or any other obligor under the Notes) of which it (or, in the case of the Trustee,
a Trust Officer) has actual knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;
(iii)
at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all
sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent;
(iv)
immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes if
at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Trustee hereunder at the time of its appointment; and
(v)
comply with all requirements of the Code with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable
withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.
(b)
ABRCF may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose,
by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the
Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which the sums were held by such Paying Agent; and upon such payment by any Paying Agent to
the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.
(c)
Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent or a Clearing Agency
in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after such amount has become
due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to ABRCF on Company Request. The Holder of such Note shall thereafter,
as an unsecured general creditor, look only to ABRCF for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to ABRCF), and
all liability of the Trustee, such Paying Agent or such Clearing Agency with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided,
however, that the Trustee, such Paying Agent or such Clearing Agency, before being required to make any such repayment, may at
the expense of ABRCF cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business
Day and of general circulation in New York City, and London and Luxembourg (if the related Series of Notes has been listed on the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange),
(12)
if applicable, notice that such money remains
unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any
unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to ABRCF. The Trustee may also adopt and employ, at the expense of ABRCF,
any other reasonable means of notification of such repayment.
Section 2.8.
Noteholder List. The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available
to it of the names and addresses of Noteholders of each Series of Notes. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, ABRCF shall furnish to the
Trustee at least seven (7) Business Days before each Distribution Date (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Trustee) and at
such other time as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of
the names and addresses of Noteholders of each Series of Notes.
Section 2.9.
Transfer and Exchange. (a) When Notes of any particular Series are
presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of
Notes of other authorized denominations of the same Series, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange if its requirements
for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange (x) shall be duly endorsed
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to ABRCF and the Registrar, duly executed by the holder thereof
or its attorney, duly authorized in writing and (y) shall only be transferred or exchanged in compliance with this Section 2.9.
(b)
Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.18, the Trustee or the Registrar shall not register the exchange of interests
in a Note for a Definitive Note. In the event that a Restricted Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes pursuant to Section 2.18,
exchanges and transfers of such Definitive Notes shall be made only in accordance with this Section 2.9(b) or
Section 2.9(e).
(i)
(A) If a Definitive Note is being acquired for the account of a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note
without transfer, the Registrar shall receive a certification from such Holder to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit
A-1 hereto); or
(B) If
such Definitive Note is being transferred to a Qualified Institutional Buyer in accordance with Rule 144A, the Registrar shall receive
a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit A-l hereto); or
(C) If
such Definitive Note is being transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance with Regulation S, the Registrar shall
receive a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto); or
(D) If
such Definitive Note is being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, the
Registrar shall receive a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto) and an opinion of counsel
in form and substance acceptable to ABRCF and to the Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act.
(13)
(ii)
The Trustee shall not register the exchange of interests in a Note for a Definitive Note or the transfer of or exchange of a Definitive
Note during the period beginning on any Record Date and ending on the next following Distribution Date.
(c)
So long as a Book-Entry Note remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of a Clearing Agency, transfers of such Book-Entry
Note, in whole or in part, or interests therein, shall only be made in accordance with this Section 2.9(c).
(i)
Transfers of Book-Entry Notes. Subject to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 2.9(c), transfers
of a Book-Entry Note shall be limited to transfers of such Book-Entry Note in whole, but not in part, to nominees of the applicable Clearing
Agency or to a successor Clearing Agency or such successor Clearing Agency’s nominee.
(ii)
Transfers of Interests in Restricted Global Notes. If interests in a Restricted Global Note are being transferred to a Qualified
Institutional Buyer in accordance with Rule 144A, each such transferee shall be deemed to have represented and agreed as follows:
(A) It
is a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A and is acquiring the Notes for its own institutional account or for the account
of a qualified institutional buyer;
(B) It
understands that the Notes purchased by it will be offered, and may be transferred, only in a transaction not involving any public offering
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that, if in the future it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Notes, such
Notes may be resold, pledged or transferred only (a) to a person who the seller reasonably believes is a qualified institutional buyer
(as defined in Rule l44A under the Securities Act) that purchases for it own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer
to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (b) outside the United States to a
non-U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act) in a transaction in compliance with Regulation S of the
Securities Act, (c) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (d) in reliance on another exemption under
the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States;
(C) It
understands that the Notes will bear a legend substantially as set forth in Section 2.10(a); and
(D) It
acknowledges that the Trustee, ABRCF, each Placement Agent for such Series of Notes, and their affiliates, and others will rely upon the
truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgements, representations and agreements. If it is acquiring any Notes for the account of
one or more qualified institutional buyers, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and
that it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgements, representations and agreements on behalf of each such account.
(14)
In addition, such
transferee shall be responsible for providing additional information or certification, as shall be reasonably requested by the Trustee,
ABRCF or any Placement Agent for such Series of Notes, to support the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgements, representations
and agreements, it being understood that such additional information is not intended to create additional restrictions on the transfer
of the Notes.
(iii)
Temporary Global Note to Permanent Global Note. Interests in a Temporary Global Note as to which the Trustee has received
from Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B to the effect that Euroclear
or Clearstream, as applicable, has received a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C from the holder of a beneficial
interest in such Note, will be exchanged, on and after the 40th day after the completion of the distribution of the relevant Series (the
“Exchange Date”), for interests in a Permanent Global Note. To effect such exchange ABRCF shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, for credit to the respective accounts of the holders of Notes,
a duly executed and authenticated Permanent Global Note, representing the principal amount of interests in the Temporary Global Note initially
exchanged for interests in the Permanent Global Note. The delivery to the Trustee by Euroclear or Clearstream of the certificate or certificates
referred to above may be relied upon by ABRCF and the Trustee as conclusive evidence that the certificate or certificates referred to
therein has or have been delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Temporary Global Note.
Upon any exchange of interests in a Temporary Global Note for interests in a Permanent Global Note, the Trustee shall endorse the Temporary
Global Note to reflect the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby by the amount so exchanged and shall endorse the Permanent
Global Note to reflect the corresponding increase in the amount represented thereby. The Temporary Global Note or the Permanent Global
Note shall also be endorsed upon any cancellation of principal amounts upon surrender of Notes purchased by ABRCF or any of its respective
subsidiaries or affiliates or upon any repayment of the principal amount represented thereby or any payment of interest in respect of
such Notes.
(iv)
Restricted Global Note to Temporary Global Note Prior to the Exchange Date. If, prior to the Exchange Date, a holder of
a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee wishes at any time to exchange its interest
in such Restricted Global Note for an interest in the Temporary Global Note, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of DTC,
exchange or cause the exchange or transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Temporary Global Note. Upon receipt
by the Trustee as Transfer Agent (“Transfer Agent”) of (1) instructions given in accordance with DTC’s procedures
from an agent member directing the Trustee as Transfer Agent to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Temporary
Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, (2) a written
order given in accordance with DTC’s procedures containing information regarding the Euroclear or Clearstream account to be credited
with such increase and the name of such account, and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit A-3 attached hereto given by the
holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer
(15)
restrictions applicable to the Notes
and pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, the Transfer Agent shall instruct DTC to reduce the Restricted Global Note by the
aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred and the Transfer
Agent shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction, to increase the principal amount of the Temporary Global Note by the aggregate
principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to
be credited to the account of the person specified in such instructions (who shall be the agent member of Euroclear or Clearstream, or
both, as the case may be) a beneficial interest in the Temporary Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Restricted
Global Note.
(v)
Restricted Global Note to Permanent Global Note After the Exchange Date. If, after the Exchange Date, a holder of a beneficial
interest in the Restricted Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such
Restricted Global Note for an interest in the Permanent Global Note, or to transfer its interest in such Restricted Global Note to a Person
who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Permanent Global Note, such holder may, subject to the rules and
procedures of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange or transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Permanent
Global Note. Upon receipt by the Transfer Agent of (1) instructions given in accordance with DTC’s procedures from an agent member
directing the Trustee to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Permanent Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial
interest in the Restricted Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, (2) a written order given in accordance with DTC’s procedures
containing information regarding the participant account of DTC and, in the case of a transfer pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation
S, the Euroclear or Clearstream account to be credited with such increase and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit A-4 attached
hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest has been made in compliance
with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Notes (A) and pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S or (B) and that the Note
being exchanged or transferred is not a “restricted security” as defined in Rule 144, the Trustee shall instruct DTC to reduce
the Restricted Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note to be so exchanged
or transferred and the Transfer Agent shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction, to increase the principal amount of the Permanent
Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred,
and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Permanent
Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note.
(vi)
Temporary Global Note to Restricted Global Note. If a holder of a beneficial interest in the Temporary Global Note registered
in the name of DTC or its nominee wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Temporary Global Note for an interest in the Restricted
Global Note, or to transfer its interest in such Temporary Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of
an interest in the Restricted Global Note, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream and DTC, as
the case may be, exchange or cause the exchange or transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Restricted Global
Note. Upon
(16)
receipt by the Transfer Agent of (1)
instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream or DTC, as the case may be, directing the Trustee to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial
interest in the Restricted Global Note equal to the beneficial interest in the Temporary Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, such
instructions to contain information regarding the agent member’s account with DTC to be credited with such increase, and, with respect
to an exchange or transfer of an interest in the Temporary Global Note after the Exchange Date, information regarding the agent member’s
account with DTC to be debited with such decrease, and (2) with respect to an exchange or transfer of an interest in the Temporary Global
Note for an interest in the Restricted Global Note prior to the Exchange Date, a certificate in the form of Exhibit A-5 attached
hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating that the Person transferring such interest in the Temporary Global
Note reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest in the Restricted Global Note is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and
is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, Euroclear or Clearstream or the Trustee,
as the case may be, shall instruct DTC to reduce the Temporary Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest
in the Temporary Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, and the Transfer Agent shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction,
to increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Temporary
Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions
a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Temporary Global Note.
(vii)
Permanent Global Note to Restricted Global Note. If a holder of a beneficial interest in the Permanent Global Note wishes
at any time to exchange its interest in such Permanent Global Note for an interest in the Restricted Global Note, or to transfer its interest
in such Permanent Global Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Restricted Global Note,
such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream and DTC, as the case may be, exchange or cause the exchange
or transfer of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note. Upon receipt by the Transfer Agent of
instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream or DTC, as the case may be, directing the Trustee to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial
interest in the Restricted Global Note equal to the beneficial interest in the Permanent Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, such
instructions to contain information regarding the agent member’s account with DTC to be credited with such increase, and information
regarding the agent member’s account with DTC to be debited with such decrease, Euroclear or Clearstream or the Trustee, as the
case may be, shall instruct DTC to reduce the Permanent Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the
Permanent Global Note to be exchanged or transferred, and the Transfer Agent shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction, to
increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Permanent
Global Note to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions
a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Note equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Permanent Global Note.
(17)
(d)
Transfers of Variable Funding Notes. A Variable Funding Note shall not be transferable except in the limited circumstances,
if any, described in the applicable Supplement; provided, however, that a Variable Funding Note may be pledged as security
(and transferred) in accordance with the terms described in the applicable Supplement.
(e)
Transfers of Registered Notes. Any Series of Registered Notes shall be transferable
as described in the applicable Supplement.
(f)
(e) ABRCF or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes. No service
charge shall be made for any such transaction.
(g)
(f) If the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, the Trustee or
the Luxembourg Agent, as the case may be, shall send to ABRCF upon any transfer or exchange of any Note information reflected in the
copy of the register for the Notes maintained by the Registrar or the Luxembourg Agent, as the case may be.
(h)
(g) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, ABRCF shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate Notes, subject to such rules as the Trustee may reasonably require. No service charge to the Noteholder
shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar government charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such
transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Section 2.13 hereof in which event the Registrar
will be responsible for the payment of any such taxes).
(i)
(h) All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall
be the valid obligations of ABRCF, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered
upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
(j)
(i) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Trustee,
any Agent and ABRCF may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the absolute
owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever,
whether or not such Note is overdue, and neither the Trustee, any Agent nor ABRCF shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
(k)
(j) By its acceptance of a Note, each Noteholder and Note Owner shall be deemed
to have represented and warranted that its purchase and holding of the Note will not, throughout the term of its holding an interest
therein, constitute a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under Section 406(a) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.
Section 2.10.
Legending of Notes. (a) Unless otherwise provided for in a Supplement
and except as permitted by the last paragraph of this Section 2.10(a), each Note (other than any Variable Funding Note or
Registered Note) issued on or after the date hereof shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:
(18)
THIS NOTE HAS NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE
SKY” LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS NOTE, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF AVIS BUDGET RENTAL CAR FUNDING (AESOP) LLC (THE
“COMPANY”) THAT THIS NOTE IS BEING ACQUIRED FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION AND MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (1) TO THE COMPANY (UPON REDEMPTION THEREOF OR OTHERWISE), (2) TO A PERSON WHO THE TRANSFEROR REASONABLY

OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS

as required under the Original Indenture or the Prior Indenture, as the case may be), or if a request is made to remove such legend on
a Note, the Notes so issued shall bear such legend, or such legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered
to ABRCF and the Trustee or the Luxembourg Agent, if the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Exchange, such satisfactory evidence, which
may include an opinion of counsel, as may be reasonably required by ABRCF that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set

EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF
THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO HEREIN.
(c)
The legend for each Registered Note shall be in the form set forth in the applicable
Supplement.
Section 2.11.
Replacement Notes. (a) If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to
the Trustee, or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered
to the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold ABRCF, each Enhancement Provider and the Trustee harmless then,
in the absence of notice to ABRCF, the Registrar or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser, and provided
that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC (which generally permit ABRCF to impose reasonable requirements) are met, ABRCF shall
execute and upon its request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of like tenor and aggregate principal amount; provided, however, that if any such
destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven (7) days shall be due and payable or shall
have been called for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Note, ABRCF may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due
or payable without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant
to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a protected purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued
presents for payment such original Note, ABRCF and the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from
the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered
or any assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided
therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by ABRCF or the Trustee in connection therewith.
(b)
Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.11, ABRCF may require the payment by the Holder of such Note
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses
(including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.
(c)
Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.11 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note
shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.
(d)
The provisions of this Section 2.11 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies
with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.
Section 2.12.
Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Noteholders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction,
waiver or consent, Notes owned by ABRCF or any Affiliate of ABRCF shall be considered as though they are not Outstanding, except that
(i) for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only
Notes of which the Trustee has received written notice of such ownership shall be so disregarded and (ii) solely for the purpose
of
(20)
determining whether the Holders of the required
principal amount of Notes of any particular Series have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent required of the Holders of the Notes
of such Series, Notes owned by an Affiliate of ABRCF shall be deemed Outstanding if, and only if, all Notes of such Series are owned by
Affiliates of ABRCF. Absent written notice to the Trustee of such ownership, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the
identity of the individual beneficial owners of the Notes.
Section 2.13.
Temporary Notes. (a) Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes
issued under Section 2.18 hereof, ABRCF may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall authenticate and deliver
temporary Notes of such Series. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes of like Series but may have variations
that are not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture as the officers executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution
of such Notes.
(b)
If temporary Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.13(a) above, ABRCF will cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender
of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of ABRCF to be maintained as provided in Section 8.2, without charge to the Noteholder.
Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, ABRCF shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes
shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.
Section 2.14.
Cancellation. ABRCF may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered
hereunder which ABRCF may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee.
The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.
The Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation. ABRCF may
not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has redeemed or paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. All cancelled
Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the Trustee’s standard disposition procedures unless by a written
order, signed by two Authorized Officers and received by the Trustee in a timely fashion, ABRCF shall direct that cancelled Notes be returned
to it.
Section 2.15.
Principal and Interest. (a) The principal of each Series of Notes
shall be payable at the times and in the amount set forth in the related Supplement and in accordance with Section 6.1.
(b)
Each Series of Notes shall accrue interest as provided in the related Supplement and such interest shall be payable on each Distribution
Date for such Series in accordance with Section 6.1 and the related Supplement.
(c)
Except as provided in the following sentence, the Person in whose name any Note is registered at the close of business on any Record
Date with respect to a Distribution Date for such Note shall be entitled to receive the principal and interest payable on such
(21)
Distribution Date notwithstanding the cancellation
of such Note upon any registration of transfer, exchange or substitution of such Note subsequent to such Record Date. Any interest payable
at maturity shall be paid to the Person to whom the principal of such Note is payable.
(d)
If ABRCF defaults in the payment of interest on the Notes of any Series, such interest, to the extent paid on any date that is
more than five (5) Business Days after the applicable due date, shall, at the option of ABRCF, cease to be payable to the Persons who
were Noteholders of such Series at the applicable Record Date and ABRCF shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner, plus, to
the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Noteholders of such Series on a subsequent special
record date which date shall be at least five (5) Business Days prior to the payment date, at the rate provided in this Indenture and
in the Notes of such Series. ABRCF shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, and at least fifteen
(15) days before the special record date. ABRCF (or the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of ABRCF) shall mail to Noteholders
of such Series a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.
Section 2.16.
Book-Entry Notes. (a) For each Series of Notes to be issued in registered
form (other than any Series of Variable Funding Notes or Series of Registered
Notes), ABRCF shall duly execute the Notes, and the Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof, authenticate and
deliver initially one or more Global Notes that (a) shall be registered on the Note Register in the name of DTC or DTC’s nominee,
and (b) shall bear legends substantially to the following effect:
UNLESS THIS NOTE
IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), TO ABRCF OR
ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY NOTE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. (“CEDE”)
OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY
AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY
PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE, HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.
So long as DTC or its nominee
is the registered owner or holder of a Global Note, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder
of the Notes represented by such Global Note for purposes of this Indenture and such Notes. Members of, or participants in, DTC shall
have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by DTC, and DTC may be treated by ABRCF, the
Trustee, any Agent and any agent of such entities as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent ABRCF, the Trustee, any Agent and any agent of such entities from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or impair, as between DTC and its agent members, the operation of customary
practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note.
(22)
(b)
Subject to Section 2.9(ij),
the provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and the “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of
Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions” of Clearstream, respectively, shall be applicable to the Global Note
insofar as interests in a Global Note are held by the agent members of Euroclear or Clearstream (which shall only occur in the case of
the Temporary Global Note and the Permanent Global Note). Account holders or participants in Euroclear and Clearstream shall have no rights
under this Indenture with respect to such Global Note, and the registered holder may be treated by ABRCF, the Trustee and any agent of
ABRCF or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.
(c)
Title to the Notes shall pass only by registration in the Note Register maintained by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.6.
(d)
Any typewritten Note or Notes representing Book Entry Notes shall provide that they represent the aggregate or a specified amount
of Outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Notes represented
thereby may from time to time be reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry
Notes to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, or changes in the rights of Note Owners represented thereby, shall
be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 2.4. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.5, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any typewritten
Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein or in
the applicable Company Order. Any instructions by ABRCF with respect to endorsement or delivery or redelivery of a typewritten Note or
Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes shall be in writing but need not comply with Section 13.3 hereof and need not be accompanied
by an Opinion of Counsel.
(e)
Unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (“Definitive Notes”) have been issued to Note Owners pursuant
to Section 2.18:
(i)
the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall be in full force and effect:
(ii)
the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for all
purposes of this Indenture (including the making of payments on the Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the
authorized representatives of the Note Owners;
(iii)
to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.16 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions
of this Section 2.16 shall control;
(iv)
whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes evidencing
a specified percentage of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes, the applicable Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such
percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or their related Clearing Agency Participants
owning or
(23)
representing, respectively, such required
percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Trustee; and
(v)
the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through the applicable Clearing Agency and their related Clearing Agency Participants
and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and their related Clearing Agency and/or the
Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.18, the applicable Clearing Agencies
will make book-entry transfers among their related Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal and interest
on the Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants.
Section 2.17.
Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture,
unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.18, the Trustee and ABRCF shall give
all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Noteholders to the applicable Clearing Agency for distribution to
the Note Owners.
Section 2.18.
Definitive Notes. (a) Conditions for Issuance. Interests in
a Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note deposited with DTC pursuant to Section 2.5 shall be transferred to the beneficial
owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes only if such transfer complies with Section 2.9 and (x) DTC notifies ABRCF that
it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note or at any time ceases to
be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary so registered is not appointed by ABRCF
within ninety (90) days of such notice or (y) ABRCF determines that the Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note with respect to
the relevant Series of Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes, in which case Definitive Notes shall be issuable or exchangeable
only in respect of such Global Notes or the category of Definitive Notes represented thereby or (z) any Noteholder, purchaser or transferee
of a Restricted Global Note or a Permanent Global Note requests the same in the form of a Definitive Note and ABRCF, in its sole discretion,
consents to such request (in which case a Definitive Note shall be issuable or transferable only to such Noteholder, purchaser or transferee),
ABRCF will deliver Definitive Notes in exchange for the Restricted Global Notes or the Permanent Global Notes or, in the case of an exchange
or transfer described in clause (z) above, in exchange for the applicable beneficial interest in one or more Global Notes.
(b) Issuance.
If interests in any Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note, as the case may be, are to be transferred to the beneficial owners
thereof in the form of Definitive Notes pursuant to this Section 2.18, such Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note, as
the case may be, shall be surrendered by DTC to the office or agency of the Transfer Agent located in the Borough of Manhattan, the City
of New York, or if the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, to the applicable Luxembourg Agent in Luxembourg, to be so transferred,
without charge. If interests in any Permanent Global Note are to be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive
Notes pursuant to this Section 2.18, such Permanent Global Note shall be surrendered by the custodian for DTC to the Transfer Agent
or its agent located in London to be so transferred, without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of
interests in such Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note,
(24)
an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive
Notes of authorized denominations; provided, that in the case of an interest in a Restricted Global Note, no such interest will
be transferred except upon (i) delivery of a Transfer Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto and (ii) compliance
with the conditions set forth in Section 2.9. The Definitive Notes transferred pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be executed,
authenticated and delivered only in the denominations specified in the related Supplement, and Definitive Notes shall be registered in
such names as DTC shall direct in writing. The Transfer Agent shall have at least 30 days from the date of its receipt of Definitive Notes
and registration information to authenticate and deliver such Definitive Notes. Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest
in a Restricted Global Note or Permanent Global Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.10, bear, and be subject
to, the legend regarding transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.10. ABRCF will promptly make available to the Transfer Agent
a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes. ABRCF shall bear the costs and expenses of printing or preparing any Definitive Notes.
(c) Transfer
of Definitive Notes. Subject to the terms of this Indenture, the holder of any Definitive Note may transfer the same in whole or in
part, in an amount equivalent to an authorized denomination, by surrendering at the office maintained by the Transfer Agent for such purpose
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, such Note with the form of transfer endorsed on it duly completed and executed by,
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to ABRCF and the Transfer Agent by, the holder thereof and accompanied
by a Transfer Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto. In exchange for any Definitive Note properly presented
for transfer, ABRCF shall execute and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver or cause to be authenticated and delivered in
compliance with applicable law, to the transferee at such office, or send by mail (at the risk of the transferee) to such address as the
transferee may request, Definitive Notes for the same aggregate principal amount as was transferred. In the case of the transfer of any
Definitive Note in part, ABRCF shall execute and the Trustee shall also promptly authenticate and deliver or cause to be authenticated
and delivered to the transferor at such office, or send by mail (at the risk of the transferor) to such address as the transferor may
request, Definitive Notes for the aggregate principal amount that was not transferred. No transfer of any Definitive Note shall be made
unless the request for such transfer is made by the registered holder at such office.
(d) Transfers
of Registered Notes. The conditions for any Registered Note to be issued as a Definitive Note and the transfer of any such Definitive
Note shall be in accordance with the applicable Supplement, including any required form of transfer, endorsement or transfer certificate
as may be required therein.
(de) Neither
ABRCF nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected
in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes for such Series, the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the
Definitive Notes as Noteholders of such Series.
Section 2.19.
Tax Treatment. ABRCF has structured this Indenture and the Notes have been (or will be) issued with the intention that the
Notes will qualify under applicable tax law as indebtedness of ABRCF and any entity acquiring any direct or indirect interest in any Note
by acceptance of its Notes (or, in the case of a Note Owner, by virtue of such Note Owner’s acquisition of a beneficial interest
therein) agrees to treat the Notes (or beneficial interests therein)
(25)
for purposes of Federal, state and local and
income or franchise taxes and any other tax imposed on or measured by income, as indebtedness of ABRCF. Each Noteholder agrees that it
will cause any Note Owner acquiring an interest in a Note through it to comply with this Indenture as to treatment as indebtedness for
such tax purposes.
Section 2.20.
CUSIP Numbers. ABRCF may use “CUSIP” numbers in respect of any Series of Notes (if then generally in use), and,
if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption in respect of such Series of Notes as a convenience
to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either
as printed on the Notes of such Series or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other
identification numbers printed on the Notes of such Series, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission
of such numbers. ABRCF will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in any such “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 3.2.
Certain Rights and Obligations of ABRCF Unaffected. (a) Notwithstanding
the assignment and security interest so granted to the Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties, ABRCF shall nevertheless be permitted,
subject to the Trustee’s right to revoke such permission in the event of an Amortization Event and subject to the provisions of

waivers subject to Section 8.9) to AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II by ABRCF and by AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II to the Manufacturers
by the specific terms of each of the Loan Agreements and each Manufacturer Program, respectively.
(b)
The grant of the security interest in the Collateral to the Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties shall not (i) relieve ABRCF
from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on ABRCF’s part to be performed or observed under or in connection
with
(28)
any of the ABRCF Agreements or from any liability
to AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or the Manufacturers, as the case may be, or (ii) impose any obligation on the Trustee or any of the
Secured Parties to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on ABRCF’s part to be so performed or observed
or impose any liability on the Trustee or any of the Secured Parties for any act or omission on the part of ABRCF or from any breach of
any representation or warranty on the part of ABRCF. ABRCF hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and each Noteholder
(including, in each case, their respective directors, officers, employees and agents) from and against any and all losses, liabilities
(including liabilities for penalties), claims, demands, actions, suits, judgments, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses arising
out of or resulting from the security interest granted hereby or by any Assignment Agreement, whether arising by virtue of any act or
omission on the part of ABRCF or otherwise, including, without limitation, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, and disbursements
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee and any of the Noteholders in enforcing this Indenture
or preserving any of their respective rights to, or realizing upon, any of the Collateral; provided, however, the foregoing
indemnification shall not extend to any action by the Trustee or a Noteholder which constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct
by the Trustee, such Noteholder or any other Indemnified Person hereunder. The indemnification provided for in this Section 3.2

or any Assignment Agreement.
Section 3.3.
Performance of Agreement. Upon the occurrence of a Limited Liquidation Event of Default or Liquidation Event of Default,
promptly following a request from the Trustee to do so and at ABRCF’s expense, ABRCF agrees to take all such lawful action as permitted

II or any other party to any of the ABRCF Agreements or any other Related Document of its obligations to ABRCF, (ii) the Administrator,
any Lessee, the Intermediary, the Escrow Agent or any other party to any Related Document of its obligations to AESOP Leasing and AESOP
Leasing II and (iii) a Manufacturer under a Manufacturer Program of its obligations to AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II and ABRCF, as assignee,
in each case in accordance with the applicable terms thereof, and to exercise any and all rights, remedies, powers and privileges lawfully
available to ABRCF to the extent and in the manner directed by the Trustee, including, without limitation, the transmission of notices
of default and the institution of legal or administrative actions or proceedings to compel or secure performance by AESOP Leasing and
AESOP Leasing II (or such other party to any ABRCF Agreement or any other Related Document), by the Administrator, the Intermediary, the
Escrow Agent or any Lessee (or such other party to any other Related Document) or by a Manufacturer under a Manufacturer Program, of their
respective obligations thereunder. If (i) ABRCF, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, the Administrator, the Intermediary, the Escrow Agent
or any Lessee shall have failed, within thirty (30) days of receiving the direction of the Trustee, to take commercially reasonable action
to accomplish such directions of the Trustee, (ii) ABRCF, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, the Administrator, the Intermediary, the Escrow
Agent, or any Lessee, as applicable, refuses to take any such action, or (iii) the Trustee reasonably determines that such action must
be taken immediately, the Trustee may take such previously directed action and any related action permitted under this Indenture which
the Trustee thereafter determines is appropriate (without the need under this provision or any other provision under the Indenture to
direct ABRCF to take such action), on behalf of ABRCF and the Secured Parties.
(29)
Section 3.4.
Release of Lien on Vehicles. The Lien of the Trustee on the Vehicles shall automatically be deemed to be released concurrently
with any release thereof as provided in Section 7.3 of each of the Loan Agreements.
Section 3.5.
Stamp, Other Similar Taxes and Filing Fees. ABRCF shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and each Noteholder from
any present or future claim for liability for any stamp or other similar tax and any penalties or interest with respect thereto, that
may be assessed, levied or collected by any jurisdiction in connection with this Indenture or any Collateral. ABRCF shall pay, or reimburse
the Trustee for, any and all amounts in respect of, all search, filing, recording and registration fees, taxes, excise taxes and other
similar imposts that may be payable or determined to be payable in respect of the execution, delivery, performance and/or enforcement
of this Indenture.
Section 3.6.
Vehicle Title Check. The Trustee shall, on an annual basis, request that the Borrowers cause a title check to be performed
by an independent, nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants acceptable to the Trustee and each Enhancement Provider
on a statistical sample of all Vehicles leased under the Leases designed to provide a ninety-five percent (95%) confidence level that
no more than five percent (5%) of the Certificates of Title for such Vehicles did not correctly reference the Trustee, as first lienholder,
and the Lessor of such Vehicle or its Permitted Nominee or, in the case of Financed Vehicles, ABCR, ARAC, BRAC or their respective Permitted
Nominees, as owner, and cause such party to deliver a report stating that, within the confidence level set forth above, no more than five
percent (5%) of the Certificates of Title did not correctly reference the lienholder or owner of the Vehicles described in the immediately
preceding clause.
Section 3.7.
Termination Services Reserve Account. (a) Pursuant to Section
3 of the Administration Agreement, there has been established and there shall be maintained the Termination Services Reserve Account
in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all moneys,
instruments, securities and other property on deposit from time to time in the Termination Services Reserve Account and the Proceeds thereof
for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Termination Services Reserve Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trustee
for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Termination Services 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 Termination Services 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 depository institution
or trust company shall be reduced to below BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody’s, then the Trustee shall, within thirty (30) days of
such reduction, establish a new Termination Services Reserve Account with a new Qualified Institution. If the Termination Services Reserve
Account is not maintained in accordance with the previous sentence, then within ten (10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such
fact, the Trustee shall establish a new Termination Services Reserve Account which complies with such sentence and transfer into the new
Termination Services Reserve Account all cash and investments from the non-qualifying Termination Services Reserve Account. The Termination
Services Reserve Account has been established at The Bank of New York, as successor to Harris Trust and Savings Bank. The Bank of New
York, as successor to Harris Trust and Savings Bank, is party to an agreement pursuant to
(30)
which it has agreed to comply with orders issued
by the Trustee directing the transfer or redemption of any security or other financial asset credited to the Termination Services Reserve
Account without consent of ABRCF.
(b)
Investment of Funds in the Termination Services Reserve Account. ABRCF shall instruct the institution maintaining the Termination
Services Reserve Account to invest funds on deposit in the Termination Services Reserve Account at all times in Permitted Investments
selected by ABRCF; 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 so invested. All such Permitted Investments shall be credited to the Termination
Services Account. Neither ABRCF nor the Trustee shall 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 principal of such Permitted Investment.
(c)
Earnings from Termination Services Reserve Account. Subject to the restrictions set forth above, ABRCF shall have the authority
to instruct the Trustee (which instructions shall be in writing) with respect to (i) the investment of funds on deposit in the Termination
Services Reserve Account and (ii) liquidation of such investments. On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw all interest
and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on deposit in the Termination Services Reserve Account during the related
Interest Period and distribute such amounts to the Administrator in payment of a portion of the Monthly Administration Fee.
(d)
Termination Services Reserve Draws and Reimbursements. On or prior to the date which is five (5) days prior to the date
on which any payment is due from ABCR to WizCom pursuant to Section 2 of the Termination Services Agreement, the Administrator
shall deliver written evidence to the Trustee that an amount at least equal to the amount of such payment has been deposited by ABCR in
a segregated account for the benefit of WizCom. In the event that ABCR fails to make such deposit, the Administrator shall deliver to
the Trustee on the following day a written statement of an Authorized Officer of ABCR describing such failure and the action that ABCR
proposes to take with respect thereto. If such failure has not been cured within four (4) days following the date on which such payment
is due from ABCR to WizCom pursuant to the Termination Services Agreement, the Trustee shall, upon the written direction (on which it
may conclusively rely) of ABRCF delivered by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the fifth day following the date on which such payment
was due, withdraw an amount equal to the Termination Services Reserve Draw Amount from the Termination Services Reserve Account and shall
pay such amount to WizCom on behalf of ABCR in payment of amounts then due under the Termination Services Agreement. Pursuant to the Administration
Agreement, the Administrator will be obligated to reimburse any such withdrawal within two Business Days thereof by deposit to the Termination
Services Reserve Account of an amount equal to such Termination Services Reserve Draw Amount plus interest thereon at the applicable Lender’s
Carrying Cost Interest Rate from and including the date of such withdrawal to but excluding the date of such deposit.
(e)
Termination of Termination Services Reserve Account. After the termination of this Indenture and the payment in full of
the ABRCF Obligations, the Trustee shall distribute any amounts remaining in the Termination Services Reserve Account to the Administrator.

(33)
ARTICLE 5.
ALLOCATION AND APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS
Section 5.1.
Collection Account. (a) Establishment of Collection Account. The Trustee has established and shall maintain, or cause
to be maintained, in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an account (the “Collection Account”),
bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Trustee
shall possess all right, title and interest in all moneys, instruments, securities and other property on deposit from time to time in
the Collection Account and the Proceeds thereof for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collection Account shall be under the sole
dominion and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collection 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 Collection 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 depository institution
or trust company shall be reduced to below “BBB” by S&P or “Baa3” by Moody’s, then the Trustee shall
within thirty (30) days of such reduction, establish a new Collection Account with a new Qualified Institution. If the Collection Account
is not maintained in accordance with the previous sentence, then within ten (10) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of such fact,
the Trustee shall establish a new Collection Account which complies with such sentence and transfer into the new Collection Account all
cash and investments from the non-qualifying Collection Account. As of the date hereof, the Collection Account has been established with
The Bank of New York, as successor to Harris Trust and Savings Bank. The Bank of New York, as successor to Harris Trust and Savings Bank,
is party to an agreement pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with orders issued by the Trustee directing the transfer or redemption
of any security or other financial asset credited to the Collection Account without consent of ABRCF.
(b) Establishment
of Additional Accounts. To the extent specified in the Supplement with respect to any Series of Notes, the Trustee may establish and
maintain one or more additional accounts and/or administrative sub-accounts at the written direction of ABRCF to facilitate the proper
allocation of Collections in accordance with the terms of such Supplement. In addition, to the extent deemed necessary or appropriate
by ABRCF, ABRCF may establish one or more Approved Lockbox Accounts. For purposes of any provision of this Indenture or any other Related
Document requiring that payments be made into the Collection Account, payment to an Approved Lockbox Account shall constitute compliance
with such requirement; provided, however that in the case of any reference in this Indenture or in any other Related Document
to amounts “credited to” or “deposited in” the Collection Account (or any similar phrase), amounts shall not be
deemed so credited or deposited upon payment into an Approved Lockbox Account, but only upon receipt by the Trustee in the Collection
Account.
(c) Administration
of the Collection Account. ABRCF shall instruct the institution maintaining the Collection Account to invest funds on deposit in the
Collection Account at all times in Permitted Investments selected by ABRCF; 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 so invested, except
for any Permitted Investment held in the
(34)
Collection Account which is in an investment
made by the Paying Agent institution, in which event 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 Collection Account. Neither
ABRCF nor the Trustee shall 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 principal of such Permitted Investment.
(d) Earnings
from Collection Account. Subject to the restrictions set forth above, ABRCF shall have the authority to instruct the Trustee (which
instructions shall be in writing) with respect to (i) the investment of funds on deposit in the Collection Account and (ii) liquidation
of such investments. All interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) paid on funds on deposit in the Collection Account
shall be deemed to be available and on deposit for distribution.
(e) Establishment
of Joint Collection Accounts. To facilitate the collection of (i) disposition proceeds and related amounts payable to AESOP Leasing,
AESOP Leasing II or any Lessee by Manufacturers, related auction houses or third-party purchasers in respect of Vehicles that were not
Relinquished Vehicles at the time of disposition and (ii) disposition proceeds and related amounts payable to the Intermediary by Manufacturers,
related auction houses and third-party purchasers in respect of Vehicles that were Relinquished Vehicles at the time of disposition, the
Trustee shall establish and maintain with a Qualified Institution, in the joint name of the Trustee and the Intermediary, one or more
Joint Collection Accounts that shall be administered and operated as provided in this Indenture and the Master Exchange Agreement. If
at any time the Qualified Institution with which a Joint Collection Account is maintained is no longer a Qualified Institution or the
credit rating of any securities issued by such depository institution or trust company shall be reduced to below “BBB” by
S&P or “Baa3” by Moody’s, then the Trustee shall within thirty (30) days of such reduction, in conjunction with
the Intermediary, establish a new Joint Collection Account with a new Qualified Institution.
Section 5.2.
Collections and Allocations. (a) Collections in General. Until
this Indenture is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1, ABRCF shall, and the Trustee is authorized to, cause all Collections due
and to become due to ABRCF or the Trustee, as the case may be, (i) under or in connection with the Collateral (other than Vehicle Disposition
Proceeds) to be paid directly to the Trustee or its agent for deposit into the Collection Account, (ii) under or in connection with Collateral
constituting Vehicle Disposition Proceeds to be paid either (x) directly to the Trustee or its agent for deposit into the Collection Account
or (y) to a Joint Collection Account for application in accordance with Section 4.2 of the Master Exchange Agreement; (iii) under
the Loan Agreements to be paid directly to the Trustee for deposit into the Collection Account; and (iv) from any other source to be paid
either (a) directly into the Collection Account at such times as such amounts are due or (b) by AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or any
Lessee into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of its receipt thereof (and, in each case, ABRCF represents to the Secured
Parties that it has instructed AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, each Lessee, the Manufacturers, and any other source of Collections, as
applicable, to so remit such amounts). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization
Event, insurance proceeds and warranty payments will be deposited in the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of their receipt
by AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or any Lessee; provided, however, upon the delivery of an Officer’s Certificate
of
(35)
AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II, as the case
may be, to the Trustee (upon which it may conclusively rely) certifying (i) that a Vehicle for which insurance proceeds or warranty payments,
as the case may be, have been received in the Collection Account has been repaired and (ii) as to the dollar amount of such repairs, the
Trustee shall release to AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II, as applicable, insurance proceeds or warranty payments, as the case may be,
in such dollar amount (to the extent not previously applied hereunder). ABRCF agrees that if any such monies, instruments, cash or other
proceeds shall be received by ABRCF in an account other than the Collection Account or in any other manner, such monies, instruments,
cash and other proceeds will not be commingled by ABRCF with any of its other funds or property, if any, but will be held separate and
apart therefrom and shall be held in trust by ABRCF for, and immediately paid over to, but in any event within two (2) Business Days from
receipt, the Trustee, with any necessary endorsement. All monies, instruments, cash and other proceeds received by the Trustee pursuant
to this Indenture shall be immediately deposited in the Collection Account and shall be applied as provided in this Article 5.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that all amounts due and payable under the Loan Agreements as of any Payment Date have been paid
in full and so long as an Amortization Event shall not have occurred and be continuing and no Potential Loan Event of Default under Section
12.1.1 of any of the Loan Agreements shall result therefrom, to the extent that (i) the aggregate amount of proceeds received in the
Collection Account with respect to Vehicles during the Related Month exceeds the aggregate Termination Values of such Vehicles payable
under the Loan Agreements on the related Distribution Date, (ii) any amounts in respect of payments to AESOP Leasing pursuant to
Section 16.2 of the AESOP I Operating Lease or the Finance Lease remain on deposit in the Collection Account or (iii) any amounts
in respect of payments to AESOP Leasing II pursuant to Section 16.2 of the AESOP II Operating Lease remain on deposit in the Collection
Account, the Trustee shall, upon the written direction (on which it may conclusively rely) of ABRCF delivered by 12:00 noon (New York
City time) on the second Business Day prior to such Distribution Date (which direction ABRCF agrees to give), release (x) in the case
of clause (i) above, the portion of such excess (to the extent not previously applied hereunder) allocable to Vehicles financed
under the AESOP II Loan Agreement to AESOP Leasing II and the remaining portion of such excess to AESOP Leasing (in each case, in accordance
with such written direction of ABRCF), (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, such unreimbursed amounts to AESOP Leasing and (z)
in the case of clause (iii) above, such unreimbursed amounts to AESOP Leasing II. The Trustee shall release such excess or amounts
to AESOP Leasing or AESOP Leasing II, as the case may be, by deposit to, (i) in the case of AESOP Leasing, the AESOP I Segregated Account
and, (ii) in the case of AESOP Leasing II, the AESOP II Segregated Account, in each case on such Distribution Date, or, if such written
direction is received by the Trustee after 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such Distribution Date, on the next succeeding Business
Day.
(b) Disqualification
of Institution Maintaining Collection Account or Joint Collection Account. In the event the Qualified Institution maintaining the
Collection Account or any Joint Collection Account ceases to be such, then, upon the occurrence of such event and the establishment of
a new Collection Account or a new Joint Collection Account, as applicable, with a Qualified Institution or qualified corporate trust department
pursuant to Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(e) and thereafter, ABRCF shall deposit or cause to be deposited all Collections
as set forth in Section 5.2(a) into the new Collection Account or such new Joint Collection Account, as applicable, and in no such
event shall deposit or cause to be deposited any Collections thereafter into any account established, held or maintained with the institution
formerly maintaining the
(36)
Collection Account or such Joint Collection
Account, as applicable (unless it later becomes a Qualified Institution or qualified corporate trust department). ABRCF will instruct
AESOP Leasing and AESOP Leasing II as to the foregoing requirements of this subsection (b).
(c) Sharing
Collections. In the manner described in the related Supplement, to the extent that Principal Collections that are allocated to any
Series on a Distribution Date are not needed to make payments to Noteholders of such Series or required to be deposited in a reserve account
or a Distribution Account for such Series on such Distribution Date, such Principal Collections may, at the direction of ABRCF, be applied
to cover principal payments due to or for the benefit of Noteholders of another Series. Any such reallocation will not result in a reduction
in the Invested Amount of the Series to which such Principal Collections were initially allocated.
(d) Unallocated
Principal Collections. If, after giving effect to Section 5.2(c), Principal Collections allocated to any Series on any Distribution
Date are in excess of the amount required to be paid in respect of such Series on such Distribution Date or there are Principal Collections
that have not been allocated to any Series in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, then any such excess or unallocated Principal
Collections shall be allocated to ABRCF or such other party as may be entitled thereto as set forth in any Supplement.
Section 5.3.
Determination of Monthly Interest. Monthly interest with respect to each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated
and distributed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Supplement.
Section 5.4.
Determination of Monthly Principal. Monthly principal with respect to each Series of Notes shall be determined, allocated
and distributed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Supplement. However, all principal or interest with respect
to any Series of Notes shall be due and payable no later than the Series Termination Date with respect to such Series.
Section 5.5.
Paired Series. To the extent provided in a Supplement, any Series of Notes may be paired with one or more other Series (each,
a “Paired Series”). Each Paired Series may be prefunded with an initial deposit to a pre-funding account in an amount
up to the initial principal balance of such Paired Series, primarily from the proceeds of the sale of such Paired Series, or will have
a variable principal amount. Any such pre-funding account will be held for the benefit of such Paired Series and not for the benefit of
the Noteholders of the Series paired therewith. As funds are accumulated in a principal funding account or paid to Noteholders of the
Series paired to the Paired Series either (i) in the case of a pre-funded Paired Series, an equal amount of funds on deposit in any pre-funding
account for such pre-funded Paired Series will be released and paid to ABRCF or (ii) in the case of a Paired Series having a variable
principal amount, an interest in such variable Paired Series in an equal or lesser amount may be sold by ABRCF and, in either case, the
invested amount of such Paired Series will increase by up to a corresponding amount. Upon payment in full of the Series paired to the
Paired Series, the aggregate invested amount of such related Paired Series will have been increased by an amount up to an aggregate amount
equal to the Invested Amount of such Series paid to the Noteholders thereof. The issuance of a Paired Series may be subject to certain
conditions described in the related Supplement.
(37)
Section 5.6.
Joint Collection Account Disputes. If the Trustee receives notice pursuant to Section 4.2(c) of the Master Exchange Agreement
that the Intermediary has disapproved of any proposed transfer of funds from any Joint Collection Account to the Collection Account that
was to be used to repay Loans Outstanding under either AESOP I Loan Agreement, then the Trustee may, and upon written direction of the
Administrator or the Required Noteholders of any Series shall, deliver a certification to the Intermediary setting forth the amounts
due and owing in respect of the applicable Loan Agreement.
[THE REMAINDER OF ARTICLE 5 IS RESERVED AND
MAY BE SPECIFIED IN ANY SUPPLEMENT WITH RESPECT TO ANY SERIES.]
ARTICLE 6.
DISTRIBUTIONS AND REPORTS TO NOTEHOLDERS
Section 6.1.
Distributions in General. (a) Notwithstanding any provision hereof
or of any Supplement, prior to depositing any amounts on deposit in the Collection Account into any Distribution Account, all amounts
due and payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.5 and Section 10.11 and under the Vehicle Title and Lienholder Nominee
Agreements (including all costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee related to the disposition of any Collateral), to the extent not
already paid by ABRCF, shall be withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Trustee. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable
Supplement, on each Distribution Date with respect to each Outstanding Series, after payment of the amounts described in the preceding
sentence, (i) the Paying Agent shall deposit (in accordance with the Monthly Certificate delivered to the Trustee) in the Distribution
Account for each such Series the amounts on deposit in the Collection Account allocable to Noteholders of such Series as interest and,
if during an Amortization Period, principal, and (ii) to the extent provided for in the applicable Supplement, the Trustee shall deposit
in the Distribution Account for each such Series the amount of Enhancement for such Series drawn in connection with such Distribution
Date.
(b) Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable Supplement, on each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall distribute to the Noteholders of each
Series, to the extent amounts are on deposit in the Distribution Account for such Series, an amount sufficient to pay all principal and
interest due on such Series on such Distribution Date in accordance with the Monthly Certificate delivered to the Trustee. Such distribution
shall be to each Noteholder of record of such Series on the preceding Record Date based on such Noteholder’s pro rata share
of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such Series held by such Noteholder; provided, however, that, the final
principal payment due on a Note shall only be paid to the holder of a Note on due presentment of such Note for cancellation in accordance
with the provisions of the Note.
(c) Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable Supplement, amounts distributable to a Noteholder pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall be payable
by wire transfer of immediately available funds released by the Paying Agent from the Distribution Account no later than 12:00 noon (New
York City time) for credit to the account designated by such Noteholder.
(38)
(d) Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable Supplement, (i) all distributions to Noteholders of all classes within a Series of Notes will have
the same priority and (ii) in the event that on any date of determination the amount available to make payments to the Noteholders of
a Series is not sufficient to pay all sums required to be paid to such Noteholders on such date, then each class of Noteholders will receive
its ratable share (based upon the aggregate amount due to such class of Noteholders) of the aggregate amount available to be distributed
in respect of the Notes of such Series.
(e) All
distributions in respect of Notes represented by a Temporary Global Note will be made only with respect to that portion of the Temporary
Global Note in respect of which Euroclear or Clearstream shall have delivered to the Trustee a certificate or certificates substantially
in the form of Exhibit B. The delivery to the Trustee by Euroclear or Clearstream of the certificate or certificates referred to
above may be relied upon by ABRCF and the Trustee as conclusive evidence that the certificate or certificates referred to therein has
or have been delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Temporary Global Note. No payments
of interest will be made on a Temporary Global Note after the Exchange Date therefor.
Section 6.2.
Reserved.
Section 6.3.
Optional Repurchase of Notes. On any Distribution Date occurring on or after the date on which the Invested Amount of any
Series or class of such Series is equal to or less than the Repurchase Amount (if any) for such Series or class set forth in the Supplement
related to such Series, or at such other time otherwise provided for in the Supplement relating to such Series, ABRCF shall have the option
to purchase all Outstanding Notes of such Series, or class of such Series, at a purchase price (determined after giving effect to any

Section 9.2.
Rights of the Trustee upon Amortization Event or Certain Other Events of Default(a)General. (a) If and whenever an
Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may and, at the written direction of the Requisite Investors shall,
exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it under applicable law or any Related Document; provided, however,
that if such Amortization Event is based solely on an event described in clause (a), (b), (c), (i) or (n)
of Section 9.1, then the Trustee’s rights and remedies pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.2 shall, to the
extent not detrimental to the rights of the holders of the applicable Series of Notes, be limited to rights and remedies pertaining only
to those Series of Notes with respect to which such Amortization Event has occurred. Any amounts obtained by the Trustee on account of
or as a result of the exercise by the Trustee of any right shall be held by the Trustee as additional collateral for the repayment of
ABRCF Obligations and shall be applied as provided in Article 5 hereof. If so specified in the applicable Supplement, the Trustee
may agree not to exercise any rights or remedies available to it as a result of the occurrence of an Amortization Event with respect to
a Series of Notes only after giving prior written notice thereof to the Enhancement Provider, if any, with respect to such Series and
obtaining the direction of the Required Noteholders of such Series.
(b)
Loan Agreements. If a Liquidation Event of Default or a Limited Liquidation Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and a Trust Officer shall have notice thereof, the Trustee, at the written direction of the Requisite Investors (in the case
of a Liquidation Event of Default) or the Required Noteholders (in the case of a Limited Liquidation Event of Default), shall direct ABRCF
to exercise (and ABRCF agrees to exercise), to the extent necessary, all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of ABRCF against
AESOP Leasing and AESOP Leasing II under or in connection with the Loan Agreements and any of the Related Documents and against any party
to any Related Document, including the right or power to take any action to compel performance or observance by AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing
II or any such party of its obligations to ABRCF, the right to take possession of any of the Vehicles, and to give any consent, request,
notice, direction, approval, extension or waiver in respect of any of the Loan Agreements, and any right of ABRCF to take such action
independent of such direction shall be suspended; provided, however, nothing in this Section 9.2(b) shall in any
way limit, condition or delay the duties of the Trustee set forth in Section 9.2(c)(i) or (iii) hereof.
(55)
(c)
Manufacturer Programs and Vehicles.
(i)
Upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event of Default of which a Trust Officer has knowledge (and so long as a Manufacturer Event
of Default has not occurred with respect to the related Manufacturer), the Trustee shall promptly return or instruct ABRCF to return or
cause AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or the Lessees to return, the Program Vehicles to the related Manufacturers (after the minimum holding
period specified in the Manufacturer’s Manufacturer Program) and then, to the extent any Manufacturer fails to accept any such Program
Vehicles under the terms of the applicable Manufacturer Program (or if a Manufacturer Event of Default has occurred with respect to any
Manufacturer), to liquidate or direct ABRCF to liquidate, or cause AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or the Lessees to liquidate the Program
Vehicles in accordance with the rights of ABRCF under the Loan Agreements and to otherwise sell or cause to be sold to third parties all
Non-Program Vehicles. Upon the occurrence of a Limited Liquidation Event of Default with respect to any Series of Notes of which the Trust
Officer has knowledge, the Trustee shall promptly return or instruct ABRCF to return or cause AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or the Lessees
to return Program Vehicles to the related Manufacturers and to sell Non-Program Vehicles or cause Non-Program Vehicles to be sold to third
parties in an amount sufficient to pay all interest and principal on such Series of Notes, and to the extent that any Manufacturer fails
to accept any such Program Vehicles under the terms of the applicable Manufacturer Program, to return or direct ABRCF to return or cause
AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or the Lessees to liquidate such Program Vehicles in accordance with the rights of ABRCF under the Loan
Agreements; provided, however, that the Trustee and ABRCF shall select the Program Vehicles to be returned to the related
Manufacturers and the Non-Program Vehicles to be sold to third parties in a manner that does not adversely affect in any material respect
the interests of the Noteholders of any Series of Notes or any Enhancement Provider.
(ii)
In addition to, and not in limitation of, the remedies and duties of the Trustee set forth in subsection (i) above or (iii)
below, if a Liquidation Event of Default or a Limited Liquidation Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee
may, and at the written direction of the Requisite Investors (in the case of a Liquidation Event of Default) or at the direction of the
Required Noteholders (in the case of a Limited Liquidation Event of Default) shall exercise, or cause ABRCF or AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing
II or the Lessees to exercise, to the extent necessary, all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims of ABRCF, AESOP Leasing, AESOP
Leasing II or the Lessees, as the case may be, or the Trustee against the Manufacturers under or in connection with the Manufacturer Programs.
(iii)
In the event that either (i) an Event of Bankruptcy with respect to any Manufacturer of Program Vehicles shall have occurred and
such Manufacturer shall fail to repurchase any Eligible Vehicles in accordance with the terms of the related Manufacturer Program or (ii)
if there has occurred a Manufacturer Event of Default of which the Trust Officer has knowledge, the Trustee shall cause AESOP Leasing,
AESOP Leasing II or the Lessees to sell any and all Program Vehicles covered by the related Manufacturer Program of such Manufacturer
for the highest purchase price offered and, promptly upon receipt, to
(56)
deposit the proceeds of such sale into
the Collection Account or a Joint Collection Account for allocation hereunder.
(d)
Failure of ABRCF, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or any Lessee to Take Action. If (i) ABRCF, AESOP Leasing, AESOP Leasing
II or any Lessee shall have failed, within fifteen (15) Business Days of receiving the direction of the Trustee, to take commercially
reasonable action to accomplish directions of the Trustee given pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) above, (ii) ABRCF, AESOP
Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or such Lessee refuses to take such action, or (iii) the Trustee reasonably determines that such action must
be taken immediately, the Trustee may (and at the written direction of the Required Noteholders of the affected Series of Notes (with
respect to any Limited Liquidation Event of Default) or the Requisite Investors (with respect to any Amortization Event or any Liquidation
Event of Default) shall), take such previously directed action (and any related action as permitted under this Indenture thereafter determined
by the Trustee to be appropriate without the need under this provision or any other provision under this Indenture to direct ABRCF, AESOP
Leasing, AESOP Leasing II or such Lessee to take such action) on behalf of ABRCF and the Secured Parties. The Trustee may institute legal
proceedings for the appointment of a receiver or receivers (to which the Trustee shall be entitled as a matter of right) to take possession
of the Vehicles pending the sale thereof pursuant either to the powers of sale granted by this Indenture or to a judgment, order or decree
made in any judicial proceeding for the foreclosure or involving the enforcement of this indenture.
(e)
Sale of Collateral. Upon any sale of any of the Collateral directly by the Trustee, whether made under the power of sale
given under this Section 9.2 or under judgment, order or decree in any judicial proceeding for the foreclosure or involving the
enforcement of this Indenture:
(i)
the Trustee, any Noteholder and/or any Enhancement Provider may bid for and purchase the property being sold, and upon compliance
with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in its own absolute right without further accountability;
(ii)
the Trustee may make and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient deed, bill of sale and instrument of assignment
and transfer of the property sold;
(iii)
all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity or otherwise, of ABRCF of, in and to the property
so sold shall be divested; and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against ABRCF, its successors and assigns,
and against any and all Persons claiming or who may claim the property sold or any part thereof from, through or under ABRCF, its successors
or assigns;
(iv)
the receipt of the Trustee or of the officer thereof making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers
at such sale for his or their purchase money, and such purchaser or purchasers, and his or their assigns or personal representatives,
shall not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of the Trustee or of such officer therefor, be obliged to see to
the application of such purchase money or be in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof; and
(57)
(v)
to the extent that it may lawfully do so, ABRCF agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever
claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws, or any law permitting it to direct
the order in which the Vehicles shall be sold, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the
performance or enforcement of this Indenture.
(f)
Additional Remedies. In addition to any rights and remedies now or hereafter granted hereunder or under applicable law with
respect to the Collateral, the Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties shall (subject to the foregoing provisions in respect of the Vehicles)
have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as enacted in any applicable jurisdiction.
(g)
Non-Segregated Series. Upon the occurrence of an Amortization Event relating to one or more, but not all, Outstanding Series
of Notes (not including any Segregated Series of Notes), the Trustee shall exercise all remedies hereunder to the extent necessary to
pay all interest on and principal of the related Series of Notes up to the Invested Amount of each Series.
(h)
Certain Other Non-Segregated Series. Certain Series of Notes (not including any Segregated Series of Notes) may provide
for allocations of Collections to such Series of Notes only in respect of specified items of Collateral upon the occurrence of certain
Amortization Events. Upon the occurrence of such an Amortization Event relating to such a Series of Notes, the Trustee shall, to the extent
specified in the applicable Supplement, limit any recourse hereunder to the related specified items of Collateral to satisfy the payment
of all interest and principal on such Series of Notes up to the Invested Amount of such Series.
(i)
Segregated Series. Upon the occurrence of an Amortization Event relating to any Outstanding Segregated Series of Notes,
the Trustee shall limit any recourse hereunder to the related Series-Specific Collateral in satisfying the payment of interest and principal
due on such Segregated Series of Notes.
Section 9.3.
[RESERVED].
Section 9.4.
Other Remedies. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture, if an Amortization Event occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee may pursue any remedy available under applicable law or in equity to collect the payment of principal or interest on the Notes
(or each affected Series of Notes, in the case of an Amortization Event that affects less than all Outstanding Series of Notes) or to
enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes, this Indenture or any Supplement. If an Amortization Event has occurred in accordance
with Section 9.1, the Trustee shall instruct ABRCF to cease issuing Notes and the right of ABRCF to issue Notes shall automatically
terminate. Upon the occurrence of a Loan Event of Default, the Trustee shall have the right to (and upon direction of the Requisite Investors,
shall) direct ABRCF to declare that the relevant Loan Commitment is terminated and the relevant Loan Note immediately due and payable.
In addition, the Trustee may, or shall at the direction of the Requisite Investors (or the Required Noteholders, in the case of an Amortization
Event that affects only one Series of Notes), direct ABRCF to exercise any rights or remedies available under any Related Document
(58)
or under applicable law or in equity. Each
of ABRCF and the Trustee acknowledge that the Trustee has direct rights to pursue remedies under the Sublease.
The Trustee may maintain
a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding, and any such proceeding instituted
by the Trustee shall be in its own name as trustee. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
Section 9.5.
Waiver of Past Events. Subject to Section 12.2 hereof, the Noteholders of any Series owning an aggregate principal
amount of Notes in excess of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of
such Series, by notice to the Trustee, may waive any existing Potential Amortization Event or Amortization Event related to clause
(a), (b), (c), (i) or (n) of Section 9.1 (with respect to clause (n), only to the extent
subject to waiver as provided in the applicable Supplement) which relate to such Series and its consequences except a continuing Potential
Amortization Event or Amortization Event in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note. Upon any such waiver, such Potential
Amortization Event shall cease to exist with respect to such Series, and any Amortization Event with respect to such Series arising therefrom
shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Potential
Amortization Event or impair any right consequent thereon. A Potential Amortization Event or an Amortization Event related to clause
(d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (j), (k), (l), (m) or (n) of Section 9.1
(with respect to clause (n), only to the extent not subject to waiver as set forth in the applicable Supplement) shall not be subject
to waiver without the approval of 100% of the Noteholders (or, in the case of clause (n), 100% of the Noteholders of the applicable
Series).
Section 9.6.
Control by Requisite Investors. The Requisite Investors may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, subject to Section 10.1,
the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial
to the rights of other Noteholders, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability.
Section 9.7.
Limitation on Suits. Any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, a Noteholder may pursue a remedy
with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if:
(a) The
Noteholder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Amortization Event;
(b) The
Noteholders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in principal amount of all then Outstanding Notes of such Series make a written request
to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;
(c) Such
Noteholder or Noteholders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability
or expense;
(d) The
Trustee does not comply with the request within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the
provision of indemnity; and
(59)
(e) During
such 45-day period the Required Noteholders do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.
A Noteholder may not use this Indenture to
prejudice the rights of another Noteholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Noteholder.
Section 9.8.
Unconditional Rights of Holders to Receive Payment; Withholding Taxes. (a)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, except for clause (b) below, the right of any Noteholder of a Note to receive
payment of principal of and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected
without the consent of the Noteholder.
(b)
The Paying Agent agrees, to the extent required by applicable law, to withhold from each payment due hereunder or under any Note,
United States withholding taxes at the appropriate rate and, on a timely basis, to deposit such amounts with an authorized depository
and make such reports, filings and other reports in connection therewith, and in the manner, required under applicable law. The Paying
Agent shall promptly furnish each Noteholder (but in no event later than the date 30 days after the due date thereof) a U.S. Treasury
Form 1042-S and Form 8109-B (or similar forms as at any relevant time in effect), if applicable, indicating payment in full of any taxes
withheld from any payments by the Paying Agent to such Persons together with all such other information and documents reasonably requested
by such Noteholder and necessary or appropriate to enable such Noteholder to substantiate a claim for credit or deduction with respect
thereto for income tax purposes of any jurisdiction with respect to which such Noteholder is required to file a tax return. In the event
that a Noteholder which is not a United States Person (as defined in Code Section 7701(a)(30)) has furnished to the Agent a properly completed
and currently effective U.S. Treasury Form W-8BEN or W8BEN-E (with
respect to a complete or partial exemption under an income tax treaty (including a taxpayer identification number)) (or such successor
Form or Forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department) and has not notified the Agent of the withdrawal or inaccuracy
of such Form prior to the date of each interest payment, only the amount, if any, required by applicable law shall be withheld from payments
under the Notes held by such Noteholder in respect of United States federal income tax. In the event that a Noteholder (x) which is not
a United States Person has furnished to the Paying Agent a properly completed and currently effective U.S. Treasury Form W-8ECI (or such
successor certificate or Form or Forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department as necessary in order to avoid withholding
of United States federal income tax), during the calendar year in which the payment is made, or in either of the two preceding calendar
years, and has not notified the Paying Agent of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such certificate or Form prior to the date of each interest
payment or (y) which is not a United States Person has furnished to the Paying Agent a properly completed and currently effective U.S.
Treasury Form W-8BEN or W8BEN-E (with respect to the portfolio interest
exemption) during the calendar year in which the payment is made, or in either of the two preceding calendar years, no amount shall be
withheld from payments under the Notes held by such Noteholder in respect of United States federal income tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any Noteholder has notified the Paying Agent that any of the foregoing Forms or certificates is withdrawn or inaccurate, or if the
Code or the regulations thereunder or the administrative interpretation thereof are at any time after the date hereof amended to require
such withholding of United States federal income taxes from payments under the Notes
(60)
held by such Noteholder, or if such withholding
is otherwise required under applicable law, the Paying Agent agrees to withhold from each payment due to the relevant Noteholder withholding
taxes at the appropriate rate under applicable law, and will, as more fully provided above, on a timely basis, deposit such amounts with
an authorized depository and make such reports, filings and other reports in connection therewith, and in the manner required under applicable
law. The Trustee hereby agrees to use its best efforts (without incurring liability for a failure to do so) to inform the Paying Agent
and the affected Noteholder or Noteholders if the Trustee has failed to receive Form W-8BEN,
W8BEN-E or W-8ECI from a Noteholder prior to the date of an interest payment to such Noteholder.
Section 9.9.
Collection Suit by the Trustee. If any Amortization Event specified in clauses (a) or (b) of Section 9.1
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against ABRCF
for the whole amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.
Section 9.10.
The Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents
as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to
ABRCF (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and
distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Noteholder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the Noteholders, to pay the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 10.5 hereof. To the extent
that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other
amounts due the Trustee under Section 10.5 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment
of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, Notes and other properties
which the Noteholders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization
or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights
of any Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.
Section 9.11.
Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, the Trustee shall pay out the money in accordance
with the provisions of Article 5 of this Indenture.
Section 9.12.
Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted
(61)
by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion
may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of any undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion
may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee,
a suit by a Noteholder pursuant to Section 9.7, or a suit by Noteholders of more than ten percent (10%) in principal amount of
all then outstanding Notes.
Section 9.13.
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the holders of
Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right or remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Indenture or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.
The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment
of any other appropriate right or remedy.
Section 9.14.
Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any Note to exercise any right or
remedy accruing upon any Amortization Event shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Amortization Event
or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 9 or by law to the Trustee or to the holders of Notes
may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the holders of Notes, as the case may
be.
Section 9.15.
Reassignment of Surplus. After termination of this Indenture and the payment in full of the ABRCF Obligations, any Proceeds
of all the Collateral received or held by the Trustee shall be turned over to ABRCF and the Collateral shall be reassigned to ABRCF by
the Trustee without recourse to the Trustee and without any representations, warranties or agreements of any kind.
ARTICLE 10.
THE TRUSTEE
Section 10.1.
Duties of the Trustee. (a) If an Amortization Event has occurred
and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of
care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs; provided,
however, that the Trustee shall have no liability in connection with any action or inaction taken, or not taken, by it upon the deemed
occurrence of an Amortization Event of which a Trust Officer has not received written notice; and provided, further, that
the preceding sentence shall not have the effect of insulating the Trustee from liability arising out of the Trustee’s negligence
or willful misconduct.
(b)
Except during the occurrence and continuance of an Amortization Event:
(i)
The Trustee undertakes to perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and
(62)
(ii)
In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture.
However, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this
Indenture.
(c)
The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:
(i)
This clause does not limit the effect of clause (b) of this Section 10.1.
(ii)
The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee
was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
(iii)
The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction
received by it pursuant to Section 9.4.
(iv)
The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default by any Lessee in the performance of its obligations under any Related
Document, unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee receives written notice of such failure from such Lessee or any Holders of Notes evidencing
not less than ten percent (10%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any Series adversely affected thereby.
(d)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture or any of the Related Documents, no provision of this Indenture
shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability if there is reasonable ground (as determined by the Trustee
in its sole discretion) for believing that the repayment of such funds is not reasonably assured to it by the security afforded to it
by the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity
satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.
(e)
In the event that the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall fail to perform any obligation, duty or agreement
in the manner or on the day required to be performed by the Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent and Registrar, as the case may be, under
this Indenture, the Trustee shall be obligated as soon as practicable upon actual knowledge of a Trust Officer thereof and receipt of
appropriate records and information, if any, to perform such obligation, duty or agreement in the manner so required.
(f)
Subject to Section 10.3, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in
trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law
or the Related Documents. The Trustee may allow and credit to ABRCF interest agreed upon by ABRCF and the Trustee from time to time as
may be permitted by law.
Section 10.2.
Rights of the Trustee. Except as otherwise provided by Section 10.1:
(63)
(a) The
Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting based upon any document believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed by or presented by the proper person.
(b) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall
be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon.
(c) The Trustee may act through agents, custodians and nominees and shall not be liable for any misconduct or negligence on the part
of, or for the supervision of, any such agent, custodian or nominee so long as such agent, custodian or nominee is appointed with due
care. The Trustee shall provide written notice to Moody’s of any such appointment and, if practicable, shall provide prior written
notice to Moody’s of any such appointment.
(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or
within its rights or powers conferred upon it by the Indenture.
(e) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture or any Supplement,
or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders,
pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or any Supplement, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security
or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing
contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligations, upon the occurrence of a default by any Lessee, AESOP Leasing,
AESOP Leasing II, Original AESOP, PVHC, Quartx or ABRCF (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture or any Supplement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.
(f) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts of matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so
to do by the Required Noteholders of any Series which could be adversely affected if the Trustee does not perform such acts.
(g) The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses or liquidation penalties in connection with Permitted Investments, unless such
losses or liquidation penalties were incurred through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith.
(h) The Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor to the Trustee so long as such acts or omissions were
not the result of the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such predecessor Trustee.
(64)
Section 10.3.
Individual Rights of the Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of
Notes and may otherwise deal with ABRCF or an Affiliate of ABRCF with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent
may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Section 10.8.
Section 10.4.
Notice of Amortization Events and Potential Amortization Events. If an Amortization Event or a Potential Amortization Event
occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer of the Trustee receives written notice thereof, the Trustee shall promptly provide the
Noteholders and each Rating Agency with notice of such Amortization Event or the Potential Amortization Event, if such Notes are represented
by a Global Note, by telephone and facsimile, and, if such Notes are represented by Definitive Notes, by first class mail.
Section 10.5.
Compensation. (a) ABRCF shall promptly pay to the Trustee from time
to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as ABRCF and the Trustee may agree from time to time.
The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. ABRCF shall reimburse
the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation
for its services. Such expenses shall include (i) the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents
and counsel and (ii) the reasonable expenses of the Trustee’s agents in administering the Collateral.
(b)
ABRCF shall not be required to reimburse any expense or indemnify the Trustee against any loss, liability, or expense incurred
by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith.
(c)
When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Amortization Event occurs, the expenses and the compensation for
the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code.
(d)
The provisions of this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation and removal of the
Trustee.
Section 10.6.
Replacement of the Trustee. (a) A resignation or removal of the Trustee
and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided
in this Section 10.6 and the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Consent Condition and the CP Rating Agency Condition.
(b)
The Trustee may, after giving sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to ABRCF, each Noteholder and each Rating Agency, resign
at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying ABRCF and ABCR; provided, however, that no such
resignation of the Trustee shall be effective until a successor trustee has assumed the obligations of the Trustee hereunder. The Requisite
Investors may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee, ABCR, ABRCF and each Rating Agency. ABRCF may remove the Trustee upon notice
to each Rating Agency if:
(i)
the Trustee fails to comply with Section 10.8;
(65)
(ii)
the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under the Bankruptcy
Code;
(iii)
a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or
(iv)
the Trustee becomes incapable of acting.
If the Trustee resigns or
is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Trustee for any reason, ABRCF shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within
one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Requisite Investors may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee
appointed by ABRCF.
(c)
If a successor Trustee does not take office within thirty (30) days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Trustee, ABRCF or any Secured Party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
(d)
If the Trustee after written request by any Noteholder who has been a Noteholder for at least six (6) months fails to comply with
Section 10.8, such Noteholder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment
of a successor Trustee.
(e)
A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring or removed Trustee, ABCR and to ABRCF.
Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture and any Supplement. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession
to Noteholders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided,
however, that all sums owing to the retiring Trustee hereunder have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant
to this Section 10.6, ABRCF’s obligations under Section 10.5 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring
Trustee.
Section 10.7.
Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. Subject to Section 10.8, if the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into,
or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further
act shall be the successor Trustee.
Section 10.8.
Eligibility Disqualification. (a) There shall at all times be a Trustee
hereunder which shall (i) be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state
thereof authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, (ii) be subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state
authority and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report
of condition and (iii) if such Trustee is other than The Bank of New York, as the original Trustee hereunder, or its Affiliate, be acceptable
to the Requisite Investors.
(b)
At any time the Trustee shall cease to satisfy the eligibility requirements of clauses (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above,
the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.6.
(66)
Section 10.9.
Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture or any
Supplement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may
at the time be located, the Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more persons to
act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Collateral, and to vest in such
Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, such title to the Collateral, or any part thereof, and,
subject to the other provisions of this Section 10.9, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider
necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor
trustee under Section 10.8 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required
under Section 10.6. No co-trustee shall be appointed without the consent of ABCR unless such appointment is required as a matter
of state law or to enable the Trustee to perform its functions hereunder.
(b)
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions
and conditions:
(i)
The Notes of each Series shall be authenticated and delivered solely by the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the
Trustee;
(ii)
All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised
or performed by the 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 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 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 Assets 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
Trustee;
(iii)
No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder;
(iv)
The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee; and
(v)
The Trustee shall remain primarily liable for the actions of any co-trustee.
(c)
Any notice, request or other writing given to the 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 Indenture and the conditions of this Article 10. 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 Trustee or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture and any Supplement, specifically including
(67)
every provision of this Indenture or any Supplement
relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed
with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to ABCR.
(d)
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Trustee, 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 to this Indenture or any Supplement 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 Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of
a new or successor trustee.
(e)
In connection with the appointment of a co-trustee, the Trustee may, at any time, at the Trustee’s sole cost and expense,
without notice to the Noteholders, delegate its duties under this Base Indenture and any Supplement to any Person who agrees to conduct
such duties in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that no such delegation shall relieve the Trustee of
its obligations and responsibilities hereunder with respect to any such delegated duties.
Section 10.10.
Representations and Warranties of Trustee. The Trustee represents and warrants to ABRCF and the Secured Parties that:
(i)
The Trustee is a banking corporation organized, existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of New York;
(ii)
The Trustee has full power, authority and right to execute, deliver and perform this Indenture and any Supplement issued concurrently
with this Indenture and to authenticate the Notes, and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance
by it of this Indenture and any Supplement issued concurrently with this Indenture and to authenticate the Notes;
(iii)
This Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Trustee; and
(iv)
The Trustee meets the requirements of eligibility as a trustee hereunder set forth in Section 10.8 hereof.

ABRCF Indemnification of the Trustee. ABRCF shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its directors, officers, agents
and employees from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by reason of any acts, omissions or
alleged acts or omissions arising out of the activities of the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture or any Supplement, including but not
limited to any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the
defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that ABRCF shall not indemnify the Trustee
or its directors, officers, employees or agents if such acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions constitute bad faith, negligence
or willful misconduct by the Trustee. The indemnity provided herein shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation
and removal of the Trustee.

DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

cease to be of further effect (except that ABRCF’s obligations under Section 10.5 and Section 10.11 and the Trustee’s

expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay, when due, principal and interest on the Notes to maturity

of the irrevocable trust shall have been irrevocably instructed to pay such money or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations
to the Trustee and (2) the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such U.S. Government
Obligations to the payment of said principal and interest with respect to the Notes;

Business Day before such payment date in such
amounts as will provide the necessary money. U.S. Government Obligations shall not be callable at the issuer’s option.
Section 11.2.
Application of Trust Money. The Trustee or a trustee satisfactory to the Trustee and ABRCF shall hold in trust money or
U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 11.1. The Trustee shall apply the deposited money and the money

on the Notes.
The provisions of this Section
11.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Indenture.
Section 11.3.

The provisions of this Section
11.3 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Indenture.

(a) to
create a new Series of Notes (including, without limitation, making such modifications to this Base Indenture and the other Related Documents
as may be required to issue a Segregated Series of Notes; provided, however, that the creation of any Segregated Series
of Notes shall not result in a material adverse effect on the Noteholders of any Outstanding Series unless the Required Noteholders of
such Series shall have given their prior written consent to the creation thereof);

Section 12.2.
With Consent of the Noteholders. Except as provided in Section 12.1, the provisions of this Base Indenture and any
Supplement (unless otherwise provided in such Supplement) and each other Related Document to which ABRCF
is a party may from time to time be amended, modified or waived, if such amendment, modification or waiver is in writing
and consented to in writing by ABRCF, the Trustee, any applicable Enhancement Provider, and the Requisite Investors (or the Required Noteholders
of a Series of Notes, in respect of any amendment to this Base Indenture, or
the Supplement with respect to such Series of Notes or any Related Document which affects
only the Noteholders of such Series of Notes and does not affect the Noteholders of any other Series of Notes, as substantiated by an
Opinion of Counsel to such effect, which Opinion of Counsel may, to the extent same is based on any factual matter, rely upon an Officer’s
Certificate as to the truth of such factual matter) and provided that the Rating Agency Consent Condition is satisfied. Notwithstanding
the foregoing:

or the exercise of any other power or right.
(72)

initial effectiveness of each Supplement shall be subject to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Consent Condition. In addition to

Section 12.4.
Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Noteholder of a
Note is a continuing consent by the Noteholder and every subsequent Noteholder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same
debt as the consenting Noteholder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Noteholder
or subsequent Noteholder may revoke the consent as to his Note or portion of a Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation
before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter
binds every Noteholder. ABRCF may fix a record date for determining which Noteholders must consent to such amendment or waiver.
Section 12.5.
Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Note
thereafter authenticated. ABRCF in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment
or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment or
waiver.
Section 12.6.
The Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any Supplement authorized pursuant to this Article 12
if the Supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may,
but need not, sign it. In signing such Supplement, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, if requested, an indemnity reasonably satisfactory
to it and to receive and, subject to Section 10.1, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that such Supplement is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that it will be valid
and binding upon ABRCF in accordance with its terms. ABRCF may not sign a Supplement until a majority of its Managers approves it.

In the case by reason of
the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such
notification as shall be made that is satisfactory to the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings, under any Federal or state bankruptcy

precluded therefrom and such other defenses, if any, as its counsel advises that it may assert. The provisions of this Section 13.17
shall survive the termination of this Indenture, and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Nothing contained herein shall preclude
participation by any Secured Party or the Trustee in the assertion or defense of its claims in any such proceeding involving ABRCF, AESOP
Leasing, AESOP Leasing II, Original AESOP, the Intermediary, PVHC or Quartx.
Section 13.18.
No Recourse. The obligations of ABRCF under this Indenture are solely the obligations of ABRCF. No recourse shall be had
for the payment of any amount owing in respect of any fee hereunder or any other obligation or claim arising out of or based upon this
Indenture against any Manager, member, stockholder, employee, officer, director or incorporator

NOW THEREFORE, for and in
consideration of the premises, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, it is
mutually covenanted and agreed, that the Finance Lease be amended and supplemented as follows:
1.
The fifth clause of the preamble of the Finance Lease is hereby amended by deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same manner
as the following example: stricken text) as set forth below.
WHEREAS, the Lessor desires to lease
to the Lessees and the Lessees desire to lease from the Lessor both Program Vehicles and Non-Program Vehicles (excluding
vehicles titled in the States of Ohio, Oklahoma and Nebraska) financed by the Lessor with the proceeds of Loans and other
available funds for use in the daily rental car business of a Lessee or a Permitted Sublessee;
2.
Section 2.1 of the Finance Lease is hereby amended by deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same manner as the following
example: stricken text) as set forth below.
From time to time, subject to the terms
and provisions hereof, the Lessor agrees to lease to the Lessees and each Lessee agrees to lease from the Lessor, subject to the terms
hereof, (i) the new or used vehicles identified in vehicle orders (each such vehicle order, a “Vehicle Order”) placed
by such Lessee (which Vehicles may not be titled in the States of Ohio, Oklahoma or Nebraska) pursuant
to the terms of the Manufacturer Programs with respect to Program Vehicles and Non-Program Vehicles (to the extent such Non-Program Vehicles
are subject to a Manufacturer Program) and as otherwise agreed by the Lessor, such Lessee and a dealer with respect to other Non-Program
Vehicles, (ii) the Vehicles identified in the computer file delivered to the Trustee on the date hereof which were leased to such Lessee
pursuant to the Prior AESOP Finance Lease immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement and (iii) the Franchisee Vehicles identified
in an Officer’s Certificate from such Lessee delivered to the Lessor, the Lender and the Trustee (with a copy to each Rating Agency)
at the time such Lessee desires to lease such Franchisee Vehicles hereunder (which Vehicles may not be titled in the States of Ohio, Oklahoma
or Nebraska), which Officer’s Certificate shall contain information concerning the Franchisee Vehicles to be leased by such Lessee
under this Agreement of a scope agreed upon by such Lessee and the Lessor (including, at a minimum, the Net Book Value (as of the first

Page 3
such Franchisee Vehicle. If requested
by the Lessor, each Lessee shall make each Vehicle Order with respect to each Vehicle leased by such Lessee hereunder available to the
Lessor, together with a schedule containing the information with respect to such Vehicle included within such Vehicle Order as is set
forth in Attachment A hereto (each, a “Vehicle Acquisition Schedule”), or in such form as is otherwise requested
by the Lessor. In addition, each Lessee agrees to provide such other information regarding such Vehicles as the Lessor may require from
time to time, and on the related Vehicle Finance Lease Commencement Date, in the case of any Franchisee Vehicle leased hereunder, such
information as may be required to determine the monthly Depreciation Charges applicable to such Vehicle. This Agreement, together with
the Manufacturer Programs and any other related documents attached to this Agreement or submitted with a Vehicle Order (collectively,
the “Supplemental Documents”), will constitute the entire agreement regarding the leasing of Vehicles by the Lessor
to the Lessees.
3.
Section 2.6(a)(ii) of the Finance Lease is hereby amended by (i) deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same manner
as the following example: stricken text) and (ii) adding the inserted text (indicated
in the same manner as the following example: inserted text) as
set forth below.
with respect to Non-Program Vehicles
leased hereunder and subject to the exercise of each Lessee’s rights under Section 2.5, each Lessee shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to arrange for the sale of each Non-Program Vehicle leased by such Lessee hereunder to a third party for the Vehicle
Purchase Price with respect to such Vehicle on or prior to the date that is the last Business Day of the month that is forty-eight
(48) months after the month in which the Vehicle Finance Lease Commencement Date occurs with respect to sucheighty-four
(84) months (or ninety-six (96) months for trucks) after the date of the original manufacturer’s invoice for such Vehicle.
In no event may any Vehicle be sold pursuant to this Section 2.6(a)(ii) unless the funds to be paid to the Lessor with respect
to such Vehicle (net of any disposition expenses but including any Non-Program Vehicle Special Default Payments) equal or exceed the Termination
Value of such Vehicle. Each Lessee may return or cause to be returned a Non-Program Vehicle subject to a Manufacturer Program to the applicable
Manufacturer under such Manufacturer Program; provided that (i) the Repurchase Price of such Vehicle, together with any Special
Default Payments payable by such Lessee with respect to such Vehicle, is at least equal to the Termination Value with respect to such
Vehicle, (ii) no Manufacturer Event of Default shall have occurred with respect to such Manufacturer and (iii) by the date on which such
Vehicle is returned to the Manufacturer, the Trustee and the Lender shall have received a copy of an Assignment Agreement with respect
to such Manufacturer Program. Notwithstanding the disposition of a Non-Program Vehicle by such Lessee prior to the applicable Vehicle
Finance Lease Expiration Date, such Lessee shall pay to the Lessor all accrued and unpaid Monthly Base Rent and any Supplemental Rent
then due and payable with respect to such Non-Program Vehicle through the Payment Date with respect to the Related Month during which

3.
The AESOP I Operating Lease is hereby amended by adding Section 2.10, which will include the following text:
2.10. Indivisible Lease
This Lease constitutes one indivisible
lease of the Vehicles and not separate leases governed by similar terms. The Vehicles leased under this Lease constitute one economic
unit, and all other provisions have been negotiated and agreed to based on a lease of all of the Vehicles leased under this Lease to the
respective Lessees as a single, composite, inseparable transaction and would have been substantially different had separate leases or
a divisible lease been intended. Except as expressly provided in this Lease for specific, isolated purposes (and then only to the extent
expressly otherwise stated), all provisions of
this Lease will apply equally and uniformly
to all of the Vehicles leased under this Lease as one unit. An Event of Default under this Lease will be treated as an Event of Default
with respect to all of the Vehicles leased under this Lease. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default,
the Lessor will be entitled to exercise any applicable remedies provided under the Lease with respect to all of the Vehicles leased under
this Lease. The parties intend that the provisions of this Lease will at all times be construed, interpreted and applied so as to carry
out the mutual objective to create an indivisible lease of all of the Vehicles and, in particular but without limitation, that, for purposes
of any assumption, rejection or assignment of this Lease under 11 U.S.C. Section 365, or any successor or replacement thereof or any analogous
state law, this Lease is one indivisible and non-severable lease and executory contract dealing with one legal and economic unit and that
this Lease must be assumed, rejected or assigned as a whole with respect to all (and only as to all) of the Vehicles. Each party agrees
that it will not assert that this Lease is not, and shall not challenge the characterization of this Lease as, a single indivisible lease
of all of the Vehicles. Each party hereby waives any claim or defense based on a recharacterization of this Lease as any agreement other
than a single indivisible lease of all of the Vehicles.
4.
Section 3.1(a) of the AESOP I Operating Lease is hereby amended by (i) deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same
manner as the following example: stricken text) and (ii) adding the inserted text (indicated
in the same manner as the following example: inserted text) as
set forth below.
The “Vehicle Operating Lease
Commencement Date” for each Vehicle shall mean the day as referenced in the Vehicle Acquisition Schedule (including any Vehicle
Acquisition Schedule delivered under the Prior AESOP I Operating Lease) with respect to such Vehicle, but in no event shall such date
be a date later than the date that funds are expended or allocated by the Lessor or the Intermediary to acquire such Vehicle. The “Vehicle
Term” with respect to each Vehicle shall extend from the Vehicle Operating Lease Commencement Date through the earliest of (i)
if such Vehicle is a Program Vehicle or a Non-Program Vehicle returned to a Manufacturer under a Manufacturer Program, the Turnback Date
for such Vehicle, (ii) if such Vehicle is sold to a third party (other than through an auction conducted by or through or arranged by
the Manufacturer pursuant to its Manufacturer Program), the date on which funds in respect of such sale are first deposited in either
the Collection Account or a Joint Collection Account (by such third party or by the Lessee on behalf of such third party) and such funds
equal or exceed the Termination Value of such Vehicle, (iii) if such Vehicle becomes a Standard Casualty or an Ineligible Vehicle, the
date funds in the amount of the Termination Value thereof are deposited in the Collection Account by the Lessee, (iv) the date that such
Vehicle is purchased by the Lessee pursuant to Section 2.5 hereof and the Vehicle Purchase Price with respect to such purchase
(and any unpaid Monthly Base Rent and Supplemental Rent with respect to such Vehicle) is deposited in the Collection Account by the Lessee

(4884) months
(or ninety-six (96) months for trucks) after (x)
with respect to any new Vehicle acquired by the Lessor, the month in which the Vehicle Operating Lease Commencement Date occurs with respect
to such Vehicle or (y) with respect to any used Vehicle acquired by the Lessor, the date of the original manufacturer’s
invoice for such Vehicle, as set forth
in an Officer’s Certificate delivered
to the Lessor on or prior to the Vehicle Operating Lease Commencement Date with respect to such Vehicle (the
earliest of such five dates described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (v) being referred to as the “Vehicle Operating Lease
Expiration Date”).
5.
Section 3.1(b) of the AESOP I Operating Lease is hereby amended by (i) deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same
manner as the following example: stricken text) and (ii) adding the inserted text (indicated
in the same manner as the following example: inserted text) as
set forth below.
Subject to the provisions of Sections
2.5 and 2.6, the Lessee shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to return or cause to be returned each Program Vehicle
leased hereunder to the related Manufacturer (or such Manufacturer’s agent or as otherwise directed by such Manufacturer in accordance
with such Manufacturer Program) (a) not prior to the end of the minimum holding period specified in the related Manufacturer Program (prior
to which the Lessor may not return such Program Vehicle without penalty (the “Minimum Term”)) and (b) not later than
the end of the maximum holding period (after which the Lessor may not return such Program Vehicle without penalty (the “Maximum
Term”)); provided, however, that the Lessee shall in any case return or cause to be returned each Program Vehicle
leased hereunder to the related Manufacturer (or such Manufacturer’s agent or as otherwise directed by such Manufacturer in accordance
with such Manufacturer Program) pursuant to Section 13.2 on or before the date that is the last Business Day of the month that
is forty-eight (48) months after the month in which the Vehicle Operating Lease Commencement Date occurs
with respect toeighty-four (84) months (or ninety-six

Lessor the equivalent of the Monthly Base Rent for the Minimum Term with respect to any Program Vehicles returned before the Minimum Term
plus any early turn back surcharges payable by the Lessor or deductible from the Repurchase Price of such Vehicle regardless of
actual usage, unless such Vehicle is a Standard Casualty or becomes an Ineligible Vehicle, in which case, the disposition of such Vehicle
will be handled in accordance with Section 6 hereof.
6.
Section 7 of the AESOP I Operating Lease is hereby amended by (i) deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same manner
as the following example: stricken text) and (ii) adding the inserted text (indicated
in the same manner as the following example: inserted text) as
set forth below.
So long as no AESOP I Operating Lease
Event of Default, Liquidation Event of Default or Limited Liquidation Event of Default has occurred (subject, however, to Section 2.6
hereof), the Lessee may use each Vehicle leased hereunder in its regular course of business and may sublease such Vehicle to Permitted
Sublessees from time to time pursuant to subleases (each such agreement, a “Sublease”), substantially in the form of
the agreement attached hereto as Attachment C, for use in the rental car businesses of such Permitted Sublessees;
provided, however, that the Lessee may not sublease any Vehicle to any Person that is a Third-Party Permitted Sublessee if the aggregate
Net Book Value of all Vehicles being subleased to all Third-Party Permitted Sublessees pursuant to this Agreement, the AESOP II Operating
Lease and the Finance Lease is equal to or greater than 10% of the
aggregate Net Book Value of all Vehicles
being leased under this Agreement, the AESOP II Operating Lease and the Finance Lease; provided, further, that each Sublease entered into
with a Third-Party Permitted Sublessee shall provide that such Sublease shall immediately terminate upon the occurrence of an Event of
Bankruptcy of the Third-Party Permitted Sublessee. Such use shall be confined primarily to the United States; provided, however,
that the principal place of business or rental office of the Lessee and each Permitted Sublessee with respect to the Vehicles is located
in the United States. The Administrator shall promptly and duly execute, deliver, file and record all such documents, statements, filings
and registrations and take such further actions as the Lessor, the Lender or the Trustee shall from time to time reasonably request in
order to establish, perfect and maintain the Lessor’s title to and interest in the Vehicles and the Certificates of Title as against
the Lessee, each Permitted Sublessee or any third party in any applicable jurisdiction and to establish, perfect and maintain the Trustee’s
Lien on the Vehicles and the Certificates of Title (other than noting the Lien of the Trustee on the Certificates of Title with respect
to certain Vehicles titled in
the states of Ohio, Oklahoma and Nebraskato the extent
set forth in a Supplement) as a perfected first lien in any applicable jurisdiction. The Lessee and each Permitted Sublessee may,
at its sole expense, change the place of principal location of any Vehicles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change of location shall
be undertaken unless and until (x) all actions necessary to maintain the Lien of the Trustee on such Vehicles and the Certificates of
Title (other than noting the Lien of the Trustee on the Certificates of Title with respect to certain
Vehicles titled in the states of Ohio, Oklahoma and Nebraskato
the extent set forth in a Supplement) with respect to such Vehicles shall have been taken and (y) all legal requirements applicable
to such Vehicles shall have been met or obtained. Following the occurrence of an AESOP I Operating Lease Event of Default, a Limited Liquidation
Event of Default, a Liquidation Event of Default or a Manufacturer Event of Default, and upon the Lender’s request, the Lessee shall
advise the Lender in writing where all Vehicles leased hereunder as of such date are principally located. The Lessee shall not knowingly
use any Vehicles or knowingly permit the same to be used for any unlawful purpose. The Lessee shall use reasonable precautions to prevent
loss or damage to Vehicles. The Lessee shall comply with all applicable statutes, decrees, ordinances and regulations regarding acquiring,
titling, registering, leasing, insuring and disposing of Vehicles and shall take reasonable steps to ensure that operators are licensed.
The Lessee and the Lessor agree that the Lessee shall perform, at the Lessee’s own expense, such vehicle preparation and conditioning
services with respect to Vehicles leased hereunder as are customary. The Lessor, the Lender or the Trustee or any authorized representative
of the Lessor, the Lender or the Trustee may during reasonable business hours from time to time, without disruption of the Lessee’s
or any Permitted Sublessee’s business, subject to applicable law, inspect Vehicles and registration certificates, Certificates of
Title and related documents covering Vehicles wherever the same be located. The Lessee shall not sublease any Vehicles to any Person other
than a Permitted Sublessee pursuant to a Sublease and, except for a sublease to a Permitted Sublessee pursuant to a Sublease, the Lessee
shall not assign any right or interest herein or in any Vehicles; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be deemed to
prohibit the Lessee or any Permitted Sublessee from renting Vehicles to third-party customers in the ordinary course of its respective
car rental business. If the Lessee subleases any Vehicle to any
Permitted Sublessee from time to time,
the Lessee shall nevertheless remain responsible for all obligations arising hereunder with respect to such Vehicle.
7.
Section 10 of the AESOP I Operating Lease is hereby amended by (i) deleting the stricken text (indicated in the same manner
as the following example: stricken text) and (ii) adding the inserted text (indicated
in the same manner as the following example: inserted text) as
set forth below.
The Lessee, at its expense, shall be
responsible for proper registration and licensing of the Vehicles leased hereunder, and titling of such Vehicles in the name of the Lessor
or its Permitted Nominee (with the Lien of the Trustee noted thereon (except with respect to thecertain
Vehicles titled in the States of Oklahoma, Nebraska and Ohioto
the extent set forth in a Supplement)), and, where required, shall have such Vehicles inspected by any appropriate Governmental
Authority; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, possession of all Certificates of Title shall at all times
