         Section 1. INTRODUCTORY. Toyota Motor Credit Receivables Corporation, a
California corporation (the "Seller) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Toyota
Motor Credit Corporation, a California corporation ("TMCC"), proposes to sell to
each of the several underwriters named in Schedule I-A hereto (the "Class A
Underwriters" or the "Underwriters") $305,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
7.12% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-2 (the "Class A-2 Notes"), $523,000,000
aggregate principal amount of 7.18% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-3 (the "Class
A-3 Notes") and $277,079,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.21% Asset Backed
Notes, Class A-4 (the "Class A-4 Notes") and together, the Class A-2 Notes and

principal amount of 6.83375% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1 (the "Class A-1

The Trust will also issue a non-interest bearing subordinated seller's interest
(the "Subordinated Seller's Interest"). The Subordinated Seller's Interest will
represent an undivided interest in the Trust. Neither the Class A-1 Notes nor
the Subordinated Seller's Interest will be sold hereunder. Morgan Stanley & Co.
Incorporated and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated will act as
representatives for the Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class A-4, Underwriters, and in

thereunder (the "Financed Vehicles") and certain monies due or
to become due thereunder on or after June 1, 2000 (the "Cutoff Date") and the
other property and the proceeds thereof to be conveyed to the Trust pursuant to
the Sale and Servicing Agreement to be dated as of June 1, 2000 (the "Sale and
Servicing Agreement") among the Trust, the Seller and TMCC. TMCC purchased the
Receivables from certain Toyota and Lexus dealers. The Receivables and other
assets of the Trust will be sold by TMCC to the Seller pursuant to a Receivables
Purchase Agreement (the "Receivables Purchase Agreement") to be dated as of June
1, 2000 between TMCC and the Seller. Pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Seller will sell the Receivables to the Trust and TMCC will
service the Receivables on behalf of the Trust. In addition, pursuant to the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, TMCC will agree to perform certain administrative
tasks on behalf of the Trust imposed on the Trust under the Indenture. The Notes
will be issued pursuant to the Indenture to be dated as of June 1, 2000 (the
"Indenture"), between the Trust and U.S. Bank National Association (the
"Trustee"). TMCC will cause the Seller to form the Trust pursuant to a Trust
Agreement (the "Trust Agreement") to be dated as of June 1, 2000, between the
Seller, U.S. Bank National Association as owner trustee (the "Owner Trustee")
and First Union Trust Company, National Association, as Delaware trustee
("Delaware Trustee"). As used herein, the term "Basic Documents" refers to the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Indenture and the
Receivables Purchase Agreement.

         This Underwriting Agreement shall hereinafter be referred to as "this
Agreement". Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have
the meanings ascribed thereto in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

Section 2.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLER AND TMCC.

         (a) Each of the Seller and TMCC, jointly and severally, represents and
warrants to, and agrees with, each of the Underwriters that:

                  (i) A registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-76505),
         including a form of prospectus supplement, relating to the Offered
         Notes and a form of Base Prospectus relating to each class of
         securities to be registered under such registration statement (the
         "Registered Securities") has been filed with the Securities and
         Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and either (A) has been declared
         effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and
         is not proposed to be amended or (B) is proposed to be amended by
         amendment or post-effective amendment. If such registration statement
         (the "initial registration statement") has been declared effective,
         either (i) any additional registration statement (the "additional
         registration statement") relating to the Offered Notes has been filed
         with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) ("Rule 462(b)") under the
         Act and declared effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(b) and the
         Offered Notes have been duly registered under the Act pursuant to the
         initial registration statement and such

                                          -2-

<PAGE>

         additional registration statement or (ii) any such additional
         registration statement proposed to be filed with the Commission
         pursuant to Rule 462(b) will become effective upon filing pursuant
         to Rule 462(b) and upon such filing the Offered Notes will have
         been duly registered under the Act pursuant to the initial
         registration statement and such additional registration statement.
         If the Seller does not propose to amend the initial registration
         statement, any such additional registration statement or any
         post-effective amendment to either such registration statement
         filed with the Commission prior to the execution and delivery of this
         Agreement, then the most recent amendment (if any) to each such
         registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission or
         has become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) under the Act
         ("Rule 462(c)") or Rule 462(b).

                  For purposes of this Agreement, "Effective Time" with respect
         to the initial registration statement or, if filed prior to the
         execution and delivery of this Agreement, the additional registration
         statement means (A) if the Seller has advised the Representatives that
         it does not propose to amend such registration statement, the date and
         time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent
         post-effective amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution
         and delivery of this Agreement, was declared effective by the
         Commission or has become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c)
         or (B) if the Seller has advised the Representatives that it proposes
         to file an amendment or post-effective amendment to such registration
         statement, the date and time as of which such registration statement as
         amended by such amendment or post-effective amendment, as the case may
         be, is declared effective by the Commission. If the Seller has advised
         the Representatives that it proposes to file, but has not filed, an
         additional registration statement prior to the execution and delivery
         of this Agreement, "Effective Time" with respect to such additional
         registration statement means the date and time as of which such
         registration statement is filed and becomes effective pursuant to Rule
         462(b). "Effective Date" with respect to the initial registration
         statement or the additional registration statement (if any) means the
         date of the Effective Time thereof.

                  The initial registration statement, as amended at its
         Effective Time, including all information (A) contained in the
         additional registration statement (if any), (B) deemed to be a part of
         the initial registration statement as of the Effective Time of the
         additional registration statement (if any) pursuant to the General
         Instructions of the Form on which it is filed and (C) deemed to be a
         part of the initial registration statement as of its Effective Time
         pursuant to Rule 430A(b) under the Act ("Rule 430A(b)"), is hereinafter
         referred to as the "Initial Registration Statement". The additional
         registration statement, as amended at its Effective Time, including (A)
         the contents of the initial registration statement incorporated by
         reference therein and (B) deemed to be a part of the additional
         registration statement as of its Effective Time pursuant to Rule
         430A(b), is hereinafter referred to as the "Additional Registration
         Statement." The Initial Registration Statement and the Additional
         Registration Statement are hereinafter referred to collectively as the
         "Registration Statements" and individually as a "Registration
         Statement." The form of prospectus supplement relating to the Offered
         Notes (the "Prospectus Supplement") and the form of prospectus (the
         "Base Prospectus") relating to the Registered Securities (including the
         Offered Notes), as first filed with the Commission in connection with
         the offering and sale of the Offered Notes pursuant to and in
         accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Act ("Rule 424(b)") or, if no
         such filing is required, as included in a

                                       -3-
<PAGE>

         Registration Statement, including all material incorporated by
         reference in such prospectus, is hereinafter referred to as the
         "Prospectus". Any reference herein to "Registration Statement" or
         "Prospectus" shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents
         incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3
         which were filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
         amended, (the "Exchange Act") on or before the Effective Date of
         the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Prospectus,
         as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms "amend",
         "amendment" or "supplement" with respect to the Registration Statement
         or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of
         any document under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the
         Registration Statement, or the issue date of the Prospectus, as the
         case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference; any
         reference in this Agreement to documents, financial statements and
         schedules and other information which is "contained", "included",
         "stated", "described" or "referred to" in the Registration Statement or
         the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be
         deemed to mean and include all such documents, financial statements and
         schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be
         incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the
         Prospectus, as the case may be.

                  (ii) (A) On the Effective Date of any Registration Statement
         whose Effective Time is prior to the execution and delivery of this
         Agreement, each such Registration Statement conformed, (B) on the date
         of this Agreement each such Registration Statement conforms and (C) on
         any related Effective Date subsequent to the date of this Agreement,
         each such Registration Statement will conform, in all material respects
         with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the
         Commission promulgated under the Act (the "Rules and Regulations"), and
         at such times did not and will not include any untrue statement of a
         material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
         therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. At
         the time of the filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) or, if
         no such filing is required, at the Effective Date of the Additional
         Registration Statement that includes the Prospectus, on the date of
         this Agreement and at the Closing Date (as such term is defined in
         Section 3 hereof), the Prospectus will conform in all material respects
         to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, and does
         not include, or will not include, any untrue statement of a material
         fact nor does the Prospectus omit, nor will it omit, any material fact,
         necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
         circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The two
         immediately preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or
         omissions from a Registration Statement or the Prospectus based upon
         and in conformity with the Underwriters Information (as defined in
         Section 7(a) or to that part of the Registration Statement which shall
         constitute the Statement of Qualification under the Trust Indenture Act
         of 1939, as amended (the "1939 Act") on Form T-1 (the "Form T-1") of
         the Trustee). If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration
         Statement is subsequent to the date of this Agreement, no Additional
         Registration Statement has been or will be filed.

                                       -4-

                  (iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by
         this Agreement and the Basic Documents, and the fulfillment of the
         terms thereof, will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of
         the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in
         the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any of the
         property or assets of the Seller or TMCC pursuant to the terms of, any
         indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, guarantee, lease
         financing agreement or similar agreement or instrument under which the
         Seller or TMCC is a debtor or guarantor.

                  (iv) No consent, approval, or order of, or filing with, any
         court or governmental agency or body is required to be obtained or made
         by the Seller or TMCC for the consummation of the transactions in the
         manner contemplated by this Agreement except such as have been obtained
         and made under the Act or the Rules and Regulations, such as may be
         required under state securities laws and the filing of any financing
         statements required to perfect the transfer of the Receivables.

                  (v) Neither the Seller nor TMCC is in violation of its charter
         or by-laws or in default in the performance or observance of any
         obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any agreement
         or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or its properties
         are bound which could have a material adverse effect on the
         transactions contemplated herein or in the Basic Documents. The
         execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Basic
         Documents and the issuance of the Notes and sale of the Offered Notes
         and compliance with the terms and provisions of the Notes will not,
         subject to obtaining any consents or approvals as may be required under
         the securities laws of various jurisdictions in the United States and
         elsewhere), result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and
         provisions of, or constitute a default under, any statute, rule,
         regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court
         having jurisdiction over the Seller or TMCC or any of their respective
         properties or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller or TMCC
         is a party or by which the Seller or TMCC is bound or to which any of
         their respective properties is subject, or with the charter or by-laws
         of the Seller or TMCC, and each of the Seller and TMCC has full
         corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the
         Basic Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
         and thereby.

                  (vi) This Agreement and each of the Basic Documents to which
         it is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
         Seller and TMCC.

                  (vii) The Seller has caused to be filed with the Commission on
         June 15, 2000 the Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to the Term
         Sheet dated June 14, 2000 relating to the Offered Notes (the "Term
         Sheet").

                  (viii) The Offered Notes are "asset backed securities" within
         the meaning of, and satisfy the requirements for use of, Form S-3 under
         the Act.

                                          -5-

<PAGE>

                  (ix) The documents incorporated by reference in the
         Registration Statement and Prospectus, at the time they were or
         hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in
         all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the
         rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

                  (x) Neither TMCC or the Seller has entered into, nor will it
         enter into, any contractual arrangement with respect to the
         distribution of the Offered Notes except for this Underwriting
         Agreement.

                  (xi) The Trust is not an "investment company" and is not
         required to be registered as an "investment company," as such term is
         defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
         "Investment Company Act").

         (b) As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of the
Seller and of TMCC in each of the Basic Documents to which it is a party will be
true and correct in accordance with the terms of such Basic Document; provided,
however, that with respect to representations made with respect to any
Receivable, the sole remedy for any breach thereof is, as provided in the
related agreement, the repurchase by either TMCC or the Seller, as the case may
be, of such Receivable.

Section 3. PURCHASE, SALE AND DELIVERY OF THE OFFERED NOTES. On the basis of the
representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the
terms and conditions herein set forth, the Seller agrees to sell to the several

thereof plus accrued interest at the Class A-2 Note Rate from (and including)
June 27, 2000, to (but excluding) the Closing Date, (ii) in the case of the

to (but excluding) the Closing Date and (iii) in the case of the Class A-4

principal amount of Offered Notes registered in the name of Cede & Co., the

<PAGE>

thereof. Definitive notes evidencing the DTC Notes will be available only

         The Seller will deliver the DTC Notes to the Representatives for the

Seller of the purchase price for the Offered Notes by wire transfer in
immediately available funds, at 10:00 am., New York time, on June 21, 2000, or
at such other time not later than seven full business days thereafter as the
Seller, TMCC and the Representatives determine, such time being herein referred
to as the "Closing Date". The certificates evidencing the DTC Notes will be made
available for checking and packaging at the office of US Bank National

         Section 4. OFFERING BY THE UNDERWRITERS. It is understood that the
several Underwriters propose to offer the Offered Notes for sale to the public
as set forth in the Prospectus.

         Section 5. CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF THE SELLER AND TMCC. Each of the
Seller and TMCC as the case may be, jointly and severally, covenants and agrees
with the several Underwriters that:

                  (a) If the Effective Time is prior to the execution and
         delivery of this Agreement, the Seller will file the Prospectus with
         the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) not later
         than the second business day following the execution and delivery of
         this Agreement. The Seller will advise the Representatives promptly of
         any such filing pursuant to Rule 424(b). If the Effective Time of the
         Initial Registration Statement is prior to the execution and delivery
         of this Agreement and an additional registration statement is necessary
         to register a portion of the Offered Notes under the Act but the
         Effective Time thereof has not occurred as of such execution and
         delivery, the Seller will file the Additional Registration Statement or
         a post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, with the
         Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) on or prior
         to 10:00 p.m., New York time, on the date of this Agreement or, if
         earlier, on or prior to the time the Prospectus is printed and
         distributed to any Underwriter, or will make such filing at such later
         date as shall have been consented to by the Underwriter.

                  (b) The Seller will advise the Representatives promptly of any
         proposal to amend or supplement the initial registration statement or
         any additional registration statement as filed or the related
         prospectus or any Registration Statement or the Prospectus and will not
         effect any such amendment or supplement without the consent of the
         Representatives; and the Seller will also advise the Representatives
         promptly of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement (if the
         related Effective Time is subsequent to the execution and delivery of
         this Agreement) and of any amendment or supplement of any Registration
         Statement or the Prospectus and of the institution by the Commission of

                                        -7-

<PAGE>

         any stop order proceedings in respect of any Registration Statement and
         will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop
         order and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting, if issued.

                  (c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered
         Notes is required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a
         result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would
         include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
         material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the
         light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
         or if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus
         to comply with the Act, the Seller will promptly notify the
         Representatives and will promptly prepare and file, or cause to be
         prepared and filed, with the Commission an amendment or supplement
         which will correct such statement, or omission, or an amendment or
         supplement which will effect such compliance. Neither the
         Representatives consent to, nor the delivery by the Representatives of,
         any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of
         the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof.

                  (d) As soon as practicable, but not later than the
         Availability Date (as defined below), the Seller will cause the Owner
         Trustee to make generally available to the Noteholders an earnings
         statement with respect to the Trust covering a period of at least 12
         months beginning after the Effective Date of the Initial Registration
         Statement (or of any Additional Registration Statement) that will
         satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act. For the purpose of
         the preceding sentence, "Availability Date" means the 45th day after
         the end of the Seller's fourth fiscal quarter following the Seller's
         fiscal quarter that includes such Effective Date, except that, if such
         fourth fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Seller's fiscal year,
         "Availability Date" means the 90th day after the end of such fourth
         fiscal quarter.

                  (e) The Seller will furnish to the Representatives copies of
         each Registration Statement as originally filed and each amendment
         thereto (in each case at least two of which will include all exhibits)
         and to the Underwriters, the Prospectus and all amendments and
         supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available and in
         such quantities as the Representatives may reasonably request. The
         Prospectus shall be so furnished no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City
         time, on the second business day following the later of the execution
         and delivery of this Agreement or the Effective Time of the Initial
         Registration Statement. All other documents shall be furnished as soon
         as available and in such quantities as the Representatives reasonably
         request. The Seller will pay the expenses of printing and distributing
         to the Underwriters all such documents.

                  (f) The Seller will arrange for the qualification of the
         Offered Notes for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions
         in the United States as the Representatives may reasonably designate
         and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for
         the distribution of the Offered Notes, provided that the Seller shall
         not be obligated to qualify to do business nor become subject to
         service of process generally, but

                                            -8-
<PAGE>
         only to the extent required for such qualification, in any jurisdiction
         in which it is not currently so qualified.

                  (g) So long as any of the Offered Notes are outstanding, the
         Seller or TMCC, as the case may be, will deliver or cause to be
         delivered to the Representatives (i) copies of each report regarding
         the Offered Notes mailed to Noteholders pursuant to the Basic
         Documents, (ii) the annual statement as to compliance and the annual
         statement of a firm of independent public accountants furnished to the
         Trustee pursuant to the Basic Documents (as amended), as soon as such
         statements are furnished to the Trustee, (iii) copies of all documents
         required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Securities
         Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or any order of
         the Commission thereunder and (iv) such other information concerning
         the Seller, TMCC (relating to the Receivables, the servicing thereof or
         the ability of TMCC to act as Servicer), the Notes or the Trust as the
         Representatives may reasonably request from time to time.

                  (h) On or before the Closing Date, the Seller and TMCC shall
         cause the computer records of the Seller and TMCC relating to the
         Receivables to show the absolute ownership by the Owner Trustee on
         behalf of the Trust of the Receivables, and from and after the Closing
         Date none of the Seller or TMCC shall take any action inconsistent with
         the ownership by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust of such
         Receivables, other than as permitted by the Sale and Servicing
         Agreement or as required by law.

                  (i) The Seller and TMCC will pay all expenses incident to the
         performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement,
         including without limitation, (i) expenses incident to the printing,
         reproduction and distribution of the Registration Statement as
         originally filed and each amendment thereto and the Prospectus
         (including any amendments and supplements thereto), (ii) the fees and
         disbursements of the Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Delaware
         Trustee and their counsel, (iii) the fees and disbursements of counsel
         to the Seller and TMCC and the independent public accountants of the
         Seller, (iv) the fees charged by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
         ("Moody's") and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of the
         McGraw Hill Companies ("Standard & Poor's", and together with Moody's,
         the "Rating Agencies") in connection with the rating of the Notes, (v)
         the fees of DTC in connection with the book-entry registration of the
         DTC Notes, (vi) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Offered
         Notes and (vii) expenses incurred in distributing the Prospectus
         (including any amendments and supplements thereto) to the Underwriters,
         and will reimburse the Underwriters for any expenses (including
         reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the
         Underwriters in connection with the qualification of the Offered Notes
         for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions in the United
         States as the Representatives may designate pursuant to Section 5(f)
         hereof and in connection with the preparation of any blue sky or legal
         investment survey, if any is required.

                  (j) For a period of 14 days from the date hereof, neither the
         Seller, TMCC nor any of their respective affiliates will, without the
         prior written consent of the Representatives, directly or indirectly,
         offer, sell or contract to sell or announce the offering of, in a
         public or private transaction, any other collateralized securities
         similar to the Offered Notes.

                  (k) So long as any Offered Notes are outstanding, the Seller
         and TMCC will cause to be delivered to the Representatives a reliance
         letter relating to each Opinion of Counsel delivered to any Rating
         Agency by counsel to the Seller or counsel to TMCC pursuant to the
         Basic Documents.

                  (l) To the extent if any, that the rating at the Closing Date
         provided with respect to the Offered Notes by any Rating Agency is
         conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other
         actions by the Seller or TMCC, the Seller or TMCC, as the case may be,
         shall furnish such documents and take any such other actions as may be
         required. A copy of any such document shall be sent to the
         Representatives at the time it is sent to either Rating Agency.

          Section 6. CONDITIONS OF THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE UNDERWRITERS. The
obligations of the several Underwriters to purchase and pay for the Offered
Notes will be subject to the accuracy of the respective representations and
warranties on the part of the Seller and TMCC herein, to the accuracy of the

         thereof (which, if the Effective Time of the Initial Registration
         Statement is prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
         shall be on or prior to the date of this Agreement or, if such
         Effective Time is subsequent to the execution and delivery of this
         Agreement, shall be prior to the filing of the amendment or

         (i) above, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives

<PAGE>

         Representatives and counsel for the Representatives (which letter
         may be included as part of the letter referred to in clause (x)). As
         used in this subsection, (i) "Registration Statements" shall mean
         (A) the Initial Registration Statement as proposed to be amended by
         the amendment or post-effective amendment to be filed shortly prior
         to its Effective Time, if the Effective Time of the Initial
         Registration Statement is subsequent to the date of this Agreement,
         or (B) the Initial Registration Statement and the additional
         registration statement as proposed to be filed or as proposed to be
         amended by the post-effective amendment to be filed shortly prior to
         its Effective Time, if the Effective Time is prior to the execution
         and delivery of this Agreement but the Effective Time of the
         Additional Registration Statement is subsequent to such execution
         and delivery, and (ii) "Prospectus" shall mean the prospectus, with
         respect to the Offered Notes, together with any supplement thereto.

                  (b) If the Effective Time of the Initial Registration
         Statement is not prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
         such Effective Time shall have occurred not later than 10:00 p.m., New
         York time, on the date of this Agreement or such later date as shall
         have been consented to by the Representatives. If the Effective Time of
         the Initial Registration Statement is prior to the execution and
         delivery of this Agreement, the Prospectus shall have been filed with
         the Commission in accordance with the Rules and Regulations and Section
         5(a) hereof. If the Effective Time of the Additional Registration
         Statement (if any) is not prior to the execution and delivery of this
         Agreement, such Effective Time shall have occurred not later than 10:00
         p.m., New York time, on the date of this Agreement or, if earlier, the
         time the Prospectus is printed and distributed to any Underwriter, or
         shall have occurred at such later date as shall have been consented to
         by the Underwriter. Prior to the Closing Date, no stop order suspending
         the effectiveness of any Registration Statement shall have been issued
         and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to
         the knowledge of the Seller or the Representatives, shall be
         contemplated by the Commission.

                  (c) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this
         Agreement, there shall not have occurred (i) any material adverse
         change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the business
         affairs or business prospects of the Seller, TMCC or the Trust which,
         in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives (after consultation
         with the Underwriters), materially impairs the investment quality of
         the Offered Notes, or makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed
         with completion of the sale of and payment for the Offered Notes; (ii)
         any downgrading in the rating of any debt securities of TMCC or Toyota
         Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. or any of their direct or indirect
         subsidiaries by any "nationally recognized statistical rating
         organization" (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Act),
         or any public announcement that any such organization has under
         surveillance or review its rating of any such debt securities (other
         than an announcement with positive implications of a possible
         upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such
         rating); (iii) any suspension or limitation of trading in securities
         generally on the New York Stock Exchange or setting of minimum prices
         for trading on such exchange; (iv) any suspension of trading of any
         securities of TMCC on any

                                          -11-
<PAGE>

         exchange or in the over-the-counter market, (v) any banking moratorium
         declared by federal, California or New York authorities; or (vi) any
         outbreak or escalation of major hostilities in which the United States
         is involved, any declaration of war by the United States Congress or
         any other substantial national or international calamity or emergency
         if, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives (after
         consultation with the Underwriters), the effect of any such outbreak,
         escalation, declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impractical or
         inadvisable to proceed with completion of the sale of and payment for
         the Offered Notes.

                  (d) The Representatives shall have received:

         (1) The favorable opinion, dated the Closing Date, of O'Melveny & Myers
LLP, special counsel for the Seller and TMCC, in form and scope satisfactory to
the Representatives, to the effect that:

                  (i) Each Basic Document has been duly authorized by all
         necessary corporate action on the part of each of the Seller and TMCC
         and has been executed and delivered by each of the Seller and TMCC.

                  (ii) Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery
         thereof by the Owner Trustee and Trustee, each of the Sale and
         Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the Receivables Purchase
         Agreement constitute a legally valid and binding obligation of each of
         the Seller and TMCC enforceable in accordance with its respective
         terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect,
         relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and by the
         application of general principles of equity, including without
         limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair
         dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance,
         injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy (regardless of whether
         enforcement is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

                  (iii) Assuming the Notes have been duly and validly authorized
         and, when executed and authenticated by the Owner Trustee as specified
         in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the consideration
         specified in this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement the
         Notes will be legally valid and binding obligations of the Trust, and
         entitled to the benefits of the Indenture enforceable in accordance
         with their terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect,
         relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and by the
         application of general principles of equity, including, without
         limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair
         dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance,
         injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy (regardless of whether
         enforcement is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

                                        -12-

<PAGE>

                  (iv) Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery
         thereof by the Owner Trustee and Trustee, each of the Sale and
         Servicing Agreement and the Indenture constitute the valid and binding
         obligation of the Trust enforceable against the Trust in accordance
         with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy,
         insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter
         in effect, relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and by
         the application of general principles of equity, including without
         limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair
         dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance,
         injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy (regardless of whether
         enforcement is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

                  (v) Neither the Seller nor the Trust is required to be
         registered under the Investment Company Act.

                  (vi) With respect to Financed Vehicles in the State of
         California, no filing or other action other than (A) the filing of a
         UCC financing statement naming TMCC as transferor and the Seller as the
         transferee, and (B) the filing of a UCC financing statement naming the
         Seller as the transferor and the Owner Trustee as transferee, which
         filings have been completed, is necessary to perfect the transfer and
         assignment of TMCC's security interest in such Financed Vehicles to the
         Seller, and the Seller's security interest in such Financed Vehicles to
         the Owner Trustee, respectively, and as a result of such transfer and
         assignment and filing of such financing statements, the Trustee has a
         first perfected security interest in such Financed Vehicles, except
         that so long as TMCC is named as the legal owner and lien holder on a
         certificate of title, TMCC has the ability to release the security
         interest in the Financed Vehicle or to assign it to another party.

                  (vii) The Trust will not be classified as an association
         taxable as a corporation or as a publicly traded partnership for
         federal or California income and franchise tax purposes and for federal
         income tax purposes the Offered Notes will be characterized as debt.

                  (viii) The statements in the Prospectus Supplement under
         "Summary of Terms--Tax Status" and "--ERISA Considerations", and "ERISA
         Considerations", and in the Base Prospectus under the "Summary of
         Terms--Tax Status" and "--ERISA Considerations", "Certain Federal
         Income Tax Consequences", "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables",
         and "ERISA Considerations", to the extent that they constitute matters
         of law or legal conclusions relating to the federal laws of the United
         States or the laws of the State of California with respect thereto,
         have been reviewed by such counsel and are correct in all material
         respects.

                  (ix) This Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary
         corporate action on the part of each of the Seller and TMCC, and has
         been duly executed and delivered by each of the Seller and TMCC.

                                           -13-
<PAGE>

                  (x) No order, consent, permit or approval of any California,
         New York or federal governmental authority that such counsel has, in
         the exercise of customary professional diligence, recognized as
         applicable to TMCC or the Seller, or to the transactions of the type
         contemplated by this Agreement or any Basic Document, including the
         issuance of the Notes, is required on the part of TMCC or the Seller
         for the execution and delivery of, and the performance of its
         obligations under this Agreement and any Basic Document, except for
         such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect as
         of the Closing Date; provided that such counsel need express no opinion
         with respect to any orders, consents, permits, approvals, filings or
         licenses related to the authority to sell motor vehicles, originate
         retail installment sales contracts or service retail installment sales
         contracts or as may be required by any regional or local governmental
         authority or under any foreign or state securities laws.

                  (xi) To such counsel's knowledge, there are no actions,
         proceedings or investigations pending or threatened, to which the
         Seller or TMCC is a party or of which any property of the Seller or
         TMCC is the subject required to be disclosed in the Registration
         Statements, other than those disclosed therein, (A) asserting the
         invalidity of this Agreement, any Basic Document or the Notes, (B)
         seeking to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any
         of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Basic
         Documents, (C) that would, if determined adversely to TMCC or the
         Seller, materially and adversely affect the performance by the Seller
         or TMCC of its respective obligations under, or the validity or
         enforceability of, this Agreement, either Basic Document or the Notes
         or (D) seeking adversely to affect the federal income tax attributes of
         the Notes as described in the Base Prospectus under the heading
         "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" or the California income tax
         attributes of the Notes.

                  (xii) At the time of execution and delivery of (A) the
         Receivables Purchase Agreement, TMCC had the corporate power and
         corporate authority to transfer the Receivables and such other property
         being transferred to the Seller pursuant to the Receivables Purchase
         Agreement, and (B) the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Seller had the
         corporate power and corporate authority to transfer the Receivables and
         such other property being transferred to the Owner Trustee pursuant to
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement and to cause the transfer of the
         Offered Notes to the Underwriters.

                  (xiii) The Notes and the Basic Documents each conform in all
         material respects with the respective descriptions thereof contained in
         the Registration Statements and the Prospectus.

                  (xiv) Neither the Trust Agreement nor the Sale and Servicing
         Agreement need to be qualified under the 1939 Act.

                  (xv) The Receivables constitute "chattel paper" as such term
         is defined in the California Uniform Commercial Code.

                  (xvi) The Initial Registration Statement and any Additional
         Registration Statement filed with the Commission has been declared
         effective under the Act, and, to such counsel's knowledge upon due
         inquiry, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
         Statement has been issued under the Act or proceedings therefor
         initiated or threatened by the Commission, and each Registration
         Statement and the Prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto,
         as of its respective effective or issue date, appeared on its face to
         be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable
         requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, except that such
         counsel need not assume any responsibility for the accuracy,
         completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the
         Registration Statement or the Prospectus except as contemplated by
         paragraph (viii) of this Section to the extent set forth therein; such
         counsel need not opine as to any financial statements or other
         financial, numerical or statistical data contained or incorporated by
         reference therein; and such counsel need not opine as to the Trustee's
         Statement of Qualification on Form T-1.

                  (xvii)  The form of the Indenture has been qualified under the
                          1939 Act.

                  (xviii) The Seller has duly authorized and executed the
         written order to the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver the issuer
         order to the Trustee to authenticate the Notes.

          In addition, such counsel shall state that such counsel has
participated in conferences with the officers and other representatives of TMCC
and the Seller, representatives of the independent public accountants therefor
and the Underwriters, at which the contents of the Registration Statement and
the Prospectus and related matters were discussed and, although such counsel is
not passing upon, and does not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy,
completeness or fairness of the statements contained therein and has not made
any independent check or verification thereof, during the course of such
participation, such counsel does not believe that any Registration Statement, at
the related Effective Time, or any such amendment or supplement, as of its
effective date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or that the Prospectus, at the date of the
Prospectus Supplement (or any such amendment or supplement, as of its respective
date) or at the Closing Date included or includes an untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading; it being understood that such counsel need express no
opinion or belief as to any financial statements or other financial, numerical
or statistical data contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration
Statement or the Prospectus or the Trustee's Statement of Qualification on Form
T-1.

         Such counsel's opinions as to enforceability shall be subject to the
unenforceability under certain circumstances: (1) of waivers of rights
granted by law where the waivers are against public policy or prohibited by
law; (2) of waivers of vaguely or broadly stated rights or future rights; (3)
of any indemnification provisions; (4) of any provisions that rights or
remedies are not

                                   -15-
<PAGE>

exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in
addition to or with any other right or remedy or that the election of some
particular remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to one or more other
remedies; (5) the unenforceability under certain circumstances of choice of law
provisions; and (6) the unenforceability under certain circumstances of
severability provisions, provided that such enforceability will not, subject to
the other exceptions, qualifications and limitations contained in such opinion,
render the relevant agreements invalid as a whole or substantially interfere
with the substantial realization of the principal benefits that such agreements
purport to provide (except for the economic consequences of procedural or other
delay).

                  (2) The favorable opinion, dated the Closing Date, of Alan F.
         Cohen, Esq., General Counsel of TMCC and counsel to the Seller, in form
         and scope to the Representatives and their counsel, to the effect that:

                           (i) Each of the Seller and TMCC is a corporation duly
                  organized, existing and in good standing under the laws of the
                  State of California.

                           (ii) Each of the Seller and TMCC is duly incorporated
                  or qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and
                  is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which their
                  respective ownership or lease of substantial properties or the
                  conduct of their respective businesses requires such
                  qualification and in which the failure to so qualify and be in
                  good standing would materially adversely affect their
                  respective businesses or financial condition.

                           (iii) To such counsel's knowledge (A) there are no
                  legal or governmental proceedings pending or threatened
                  against TMCC or in connection with the origination and
                  servicing of the Receivables by TMCC which are required to be
                  disclosed in the Registration Statements, other than those
                  disclosed therein, (B) there are no legal or governmental
                  proceedings to which TMCC is a party or to which any of its
                  property is subject which are not described in TMCC's Annual
                  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1999, or
                  its Quarterly Report for the quarter ended March 31, 2000,
                  which are required to be disclosed therein other than those
                  disclosed therein and (C) there are no pending legal or
                  governmental proceedings to which the Seller is a party or to
                  which any of its property is subject.

                           (iv) To such counsel's knowledge (A) no default
                  exists in the due performance or observance by TMCC of any
                  obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any
                  contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement note, lease or
                  other instrument to which it is a party or by which it may be
                  bound, which default would have a material adverse effect on
                  the financial condition, earnings, business affairs, business
                  prospects, properties or results of operations of TMCC and its
                  subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, and (B) other than
                  this Agreement, and the Basic Documents and the corresponding
                  agreements in

                                      -16-

                  Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein and
                  therein contemplated will not (A) conflict with or constitute
                  a breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or
                  imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of TMCC or
                  any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, any material contract,
                  indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other
                  instrument known to such counsel to which TMCC or any of its
                  subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may be
                  bound, or to which any of the property or assets of TMCC or
                  any of its subsidiaries is subject, (B) result in any
                  violation of the provisions of the charter or bylaws of TMCC
                  or (C) to such counsel's knowledge, result in any violation of
                  any applicable law, administrative regulation or
                  administrative or court decree.

                           (vi) The transfer of the Receivables to the Owner

                  the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Basic
                  Documents and the Notes, and the consummation of the
                  transactions contemplated herein and therein will not (A)
                  conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default under, or
                  result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any
                  property or assets of the Seller pursuant to, any contract,
                  indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other
                  instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it may
                  be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of the
                  Seller is subject, (B) result in any violation of the
                  provisions of the charter or bylaws of the Seller or (C) to
                  such counsel's knowledge, result in any violation of any
                  applicable law, administrative regulation or administrative or
                  court decree.

                           (vii) Each of the Seller and TMCC has obtained all
                  necessary licenses and approvals under the federal law of the
                  United States and the laws of the State of California to
                  conduct their respective businesses in which the failure to
                  obtain such licenses and approvals would render any Receivable
                  or any other material part of the corpus of the Trust
                  unenforceable or would materially and adversely affect the
                  ability of either the Seller or TMCC to perform any of their
                  respective obligations under, or the enforceability of, any of
                  the Basic Documents.

                           (viii) Such counsel is familiar with the standard
                  operating procedures of TMCC relating to the acquisition by
                  TMCC of a first perfected security interest in

                                     -17-

<PAGE>

                  the automobiles and/or light duty trucks financed by the
                  retail installment sale contracts purchased by TMCC in the
                  ordinary course of its business and relating to the sale to
                  TMCC of such contracts and such security interests in the
                  automobiles or light duty trucks financed thereby in the
                  ordinary course of its business. Assuming that such standard
                  procedures are followed with respect to the perfection of
                  security interests in the Financed Vehicles (and such counsel
                  has no reason to believe that TMCC has not or will not
                  continue to follow its standard procedures in connection with
                  the perfection of first perfected security interests in the
                  Financed Vehicles), TMCC has acquired a first perfected
                  security interest in the Financed Vehicles.

                  (3) The favorable opinion, dated the Closing Date, of
         Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton, special California counsel to the
         Seller and TMCC, in form and scope satisfactory to the Representatives
         and their counsel, to the effect that, assuming the due authorization,
         execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, each of the
         Receivables in the form attached to such opinion constitutes the valid,
         binding and enforceable agreement of the parties thereto; and such
         Receivables comply as to content and form with all applicable state
         laws and federal disclosure laws relating to consumer credit, including
         without limitation, consumer protection laws.

                  (4) Reliance letters relating to each opinion rendered to
         either Rating Agency by any counsel for the Seller, TMCC, the Trust or
         any other party to any of the Basic Documents.

                  (5) The favorable opinions, dated the Closing Date, of Dorsey

                  validly existing as a national banking association, in good
                  standing under the laws of United States with full power and
                  authority (corporate and other) to own its properties and
                  conduct its business, as presently conducted by it, and to
                  enter into and perform its obligations as Owner Trustee and
                  Trustee under each Basic Document to which U.S. Bank is a
                  party.

                           (ii) Each Basic Document to which U.S. Bank is a
                  party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by U.S.
                  Bank and, assuming the due authorization, execution and
                  delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, will constitute
                  a legal, valid and binding obligation of U.S. Bank enforceable
                  in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability
                  thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
                  reorganization or other similar laws affecting enforcement of
                  creditors rights generally and by general principals of equity
                  (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
                  proceeding in equity and or at law).

<PAGE>

                           (iii) Neither the execution nor delivery by U.S. Bank
                  of each Basic Document to which it is a party nor the
                  consummation of any of the transactions by U.S. Bank
                  contemplated thereby require the consent or approval of, the
                  giving of notice to, the registration with or the taking of
                  any other action with respect to, any governmental authority
                  or agency under any existing federal or state law governing
                  the banking or trust powers of U.S. Bank.

                           (iv) The execution and delivery of each Basic
                  Document to which U.S. Bank is a party and the performance by
                  U.S. Bank of its terms do not conflict with or result in a
                  violation of (A) any federal or state law or regulation
                  governing the banking or trust powers of U.S. Bank, (B) the
                  Articles of Association or By-Laws of U.S. Bank, or (C) to the
                  best knowledge of such counsel, any indenture, lease, or
                  material agreement to which U.S. Bank is a party or to which
                  its assets are subject.

                           (v) Each of the Notes has been duly executed and
                  delivered by the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and has
                  been authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the terms
                  of the Indenture.

                  (6) The favorable opinion of Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP,
         counsel for the Underwriters, dated the Closing Date, with respect to
         the validity of the Notes and such other related matters as the
         Representatives shall request and the Seller and TMCC shall have
         furnished or caused to be furnished to such counsel such documents as
         they may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass
         upon such matters.

                  (7) The favorable opinion of O'Melveny & Myers LLP, special
         counsel to the Trust, dated the Closing Date, in form and scope
         satisfactory to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters,

         security interest in the Receivables and the property held in the
         Reserve Account in favor of the Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders.
         Such opinion may contain such assumptions, qualifications and
         limitations as are customary in opinions of this type and are
         reasonably acceptable to counsel to the Underwriters. In rendering such
         opinion, such counsel may state that they express no opinion as to the
         laws of any jurisdiction other than the federal law of the United
         States of America and the laws of the State of New York and the State
         of California. To the extent any portion of such opinion is governed by
         the laws of the State of Delaware, such opinion will be given by
         Richards, Layton & Finger. To the extent any portion of such opinion is
         governed by the laws of the State of New York or California, such
         opinion will be given by O'Melveny & Myers LLP.

                  (8) The favorable opinion of O'Melveny & Myers LLP, dated the
         Closing Date, in form and scope satisfactory to the Representatives and
         counsel to the Underwriters with respect to (i) the consolidation of

         Receivables to the Trust, a valid and binding security interest in the
         Receivables and (iii) such other related matters as the Representatives
         shall reasonably require and the Seller shall have furnished or caused
         to be furnished to such counsel such documents as they may reasonably
         request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
         Such opinions shall be limited to the laws of the State of New York and
         United States federal law.

                  (9) The favorable opinion of counsel to the Delaware Trustee,
         dated the Closing Date in form and scope satisfactory to the
         Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that:

                           (i) The Delaware Trustee has been duly organized as a
                  national banking association and is validly existing as a
                  national banking association in good standing under the laws
                  of the United States of America.

                           (ii) The Delaware Trustee has the requisite power and

                  under the Indenture and has taken all necessary action to
                  authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of the
                  Indenture.

                           (iii) The Trust Agreement has been duly executed and
                  delivered by the Delaware Trustee and constitutes a legal,
                  valid and binding obligation of the Delaware Trustee,
                  enforceable against the Delaware Trustee in accordance with
                  its respective terms, except that such enforcement may be
                  limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
                  or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'
                  rights generally, and by general principles of equity
                  (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
                  proceeding in equity or at law).

         special Delaware counsel for the Trust, dated the Closing Date, in form
         and scope satisfactory to the Representatives and counsel for the
         Representatives, to the effect that:

                  enforceable against the Owner Trustee and the Seller in
                  accordance with its terms subject to (i) applicable
                  bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership,
                  reorganization, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws
                  relating to and affecting the rights and remedies of creditors
                  generally, and (ii) principles of equity (regardless of
                  whether considered and applied in a proceeding in equity or at
                  law).

                           (ii) The Certificate of Trust has been duly filed
                  with the Secretary of State. The Trust has been duly formed
                  and is validly existing as a business trust under the Delaware
                  Business Trust Act. The Trust has the power and authority
                  under the Trust Agreement and the Delaware Business Trust Act
                  to execute and deliver the Indenture and the Sale and
                  Servicing Agreement, to issue the Notes and to pledge the
                  Trust Estate to the Trustee as security for the Notes.

                           (iii) To the extent that Article 9 of the Uniform
                  Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware (the
                  "Delaware UCC") is applicable (without regard to conflicts of
                  laws principles), and assuming that the security interest
                  created by the Indenture in the Receivables has been duly
                  created and has attached, upon the filing of a UCC-1 financing
                  statement with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
                  the Trustee will have a perfected security interest in such
                  Receivables and the proceeds thereof, and such security
                  interest will be prior to any other security interest that is
                  perfected solely by the filing of financing statements under
                  the Delaware UCC, excluding purchase money security interests
                  under Section 9-312(4) of the UCC and temporarily perfected
                  security interests in proceeds under Section 9-306(3) of the
                  Delaware UCC.

                           (iv) No re-filing or other action is necessary under
                  the Delaware UCC in order to maintain the perfection of such
                  security interest except for the filing of continuation
                  statements at five year intervals.

                           (v) Under Section 3805(b) of the Business Trust Act,
                  no creditor of any Certificateholder or Noteholder shall have
                  any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal
                  or equitable remedies with respect to, the property of the
                  Trust except in accordance with the terms of the Trust
                  Agreement.

                           (vi) Under Section 3805(c) of the Business Trust Act,
                  and assuming that the Sale and Servicing Agreement conveys
                  good title to the Receivables to the Trust as a true sale and
                  not as a security arrangement, the Trust rather than the
                  Certificateholders or Noteholders is the owner of the
                  Receivables.

                           (vii) The execution and delivery by the Owner Trustee
                  and Delaware Trustee of the Trust Agreement and, on behalf of
                  the Trust, the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing Agreement
                  do not require any consent, approval or authorization of, or
                  any registration or filing with, any governmental authority of
                  the State of Delaware, except for the filing of the
                  Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State.

                           (viii) Neither the consummation by the Owner Trustee
                  or Delaware Trustee of the transactions contemplated in the
                  Trust Agreement or, on behalf of the Trust, the transactions
                  contemplated in the Indenture and the Sale and Servicing
                  Agreement nor the fulfillment of the terms thereof by the
                  Owner

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

                  Trustee will conflict with or result in a breach or violation
                  of any law of the State of Delaware applicable to
                  the Trust.

                  Such opinion may contain such assumptions, qualifications and
limitations as are customary in opinions of this type and are reasonably
acceptable to counsel to the Representatives. In rendering such opinion, such
counsel may state that they express no opinion as to the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the federal law of the United States of America and the
laws of the State of Delaware.

                  (e) The Representatives shall have received a certificate,
         dated the Closing Date, signed by the President or any Vice President
         and a principal financial or accounting officer of (i) the Seller in
         which such officers shall state that, to the best of their knowledge
         after reasonable investigation, (A) the representations and warranties
         of the Seller in this Agreement are true and correct, (B) the Seller
         has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its
         part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing
         Date, (C) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of any
         Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that
         purpose have been instituted or, to the best of their knowledge, are
         contemplated by the Commission, (D) the Additional Registration
         Statement, if any, satisfying the requirements of Rule 462(b)(1) and
         Rule 462(b)(3) was filed in accordance with Rule 462(b) (including
         payment of the applicable filing fee in accordance with Rule 111(a) or
         Rule 111(b) under the Act) prior to the time the Prospectus was printed
         or distributed to the Underwriter and (E) subsequent to the date of
         this Agreement, there has been no material adverse change in the
         condition, financial or otherwise, or in the business affairs or
         business prospects of the Seller except as set forth or contemplated in
         the Prospectus and (ii) TMCC in which such officers shall state that,
         to the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, (A) the
         representations and warranties of TMCC in this Agreement are true and
         correct, (B) TMCC has complied with all agreements and satisfied all
         conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder and (C)
         subsequent to the date of this Agreement there has been no material
         adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the
         business affairs or business prospects of TMCC which would materially
         and adversely affect the performance by TMCC of its obligations under
         this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents.

                  (f) The Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class A-4 Notes shall be
         rated "Aaa" by Moody's and "AAA" by Standard & Poor's.

                  (g) The Representatives shall have received evidence
         satisfactory to counsel for the Representatives that the Owner Trustee
         and Trust have received all necessary licenses in the State of
         Pennsylvania and the State of Maryland to own the Receivables.

                  (h) On the Closing Date, the Representatives and counsel for
         the Underwriters shall have been furnished with such documents and
         opinions as they reasonably may require for the purpose of enabling
         them to pass upon the issuance and sale of the Notes

                                     -22-
<PAGE>

         as herein contemplated and related proceedings or in order to evidence
         the accuracy and completeness of any of the representations and
         warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein
         contained; and all proceedings taken by the Seller and TMCC in
         connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes as herein
         contemplated shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the
         Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters.

Section 7.    INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

          (a) The Seller and TMCC will, jointly and severally, indemnify and
hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several as incurred, to which such Underwriter may become
subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any Registration Statement, the Term Sheet, the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each
Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that neither the Seller nor TMCC will be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission
from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Seller or TMCC by any Underwriter through the
Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed
that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the
information in the Prospectus appearing in the first textual paragraph under the
first table on page S-41, the second table on page S-41 insofar as it describes
the Selling Concessions and the Reallowances, the three paragraphs on page S-41
after the second table and the second sentence of the second full paragraph on
page S-42 under the caption "Underwriting" (the "Underwriters' Information");
provided that neither TMCC nor the Seller shall be liable under this subsection
(a) to any Underwriter to the extent that such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities arose out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made
in any Term Sheet that is corrected in the Prospectus (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) that has been previously made available to such Underwriter
if the person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability was not sent or
given the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) on or prior to the
confirmation of the sale of the Offered Notes.

          (b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and
hold harmless each of the Seller and TMCC, against any losses, claims, damages
or liabilities, joint or several as incurred, to which the Seller or TMCC, may
become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in any Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to

                                    -23-
<PAGE>

the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Seller or TMCC by
such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it
being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by such
Underwriter consists of such Underwriter's Underwriters' Information and will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Seller and
TMCC in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.

          (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than
under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to
the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the
indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from
the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume
the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which
indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 7 (whether or
not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless
such settlement, compromise or consent does not contain a statement as to or an
admission of fault, culpability, or a failure to act by or on behalf of any
indemnified party (unless such statement is agreed to by the indemnified party
in writing); provided, however, that in the event such settlement, compromise or
consent by the indemnifying party does not include an unconditional release of
each indemnified party from all liability arising out of any litigation,
investigation, proceeding or claim, the provisions of this Section with respect
to indemnification shall continue and survive.

          (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable
or insufficient TO hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or
(b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Seller and TMCC
on the one hand and the Class A Underwriters, on the other hand, from the
offering of the Offered Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i)
above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i)

                                    -24-
<PAGE>

above but also the relative fault of the Seller and TMCC on the one hand and
the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by
the Seller and TMCC on the one hand and the Class A Underwriters on the other
shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from
the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Seller and TMCC bear
to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Class A
Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Seller or TMCC or the Underwriters and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities
referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to
include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which
is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this
subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Notes
underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public
exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in this
subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting obligations and not joint.

          (e) The obligations of the Seller and TMCC under this Section shall be
in addition to any liability that the Seller or TMCC may otherwise have and
shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who
controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of
the Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability that
the respective Underwriters my otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same
terms and conditions, to each director of the Seller or TMCC, to each officer of
the Seller or TMCC who has signed any Registration Statement and to each person,
if any, who controls the Seller or TMCC within the meaning of the Act.

Section 8. DEFAULT OF UNDERWRITERS. If any Class A Underwriter or Underwriters
default in their obligations to purchase Notes hereunder and (i) the aggregate
principal amount of Class A-2 Notes (in the case of the Class A-2 Underwriters)
that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase
does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes, (ii)
the aggregate principal amount of Class A-3 Notes (in the case of the Class A-3
Underwriters) that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed
to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of the Class A-3
Notes and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of Class A-4 Notes (in the case
of the Class A-4 Underwriters) that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters
agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount
of Class A-4 Notes, the Representatives may make arrangements

                                      -25-
<PAGE>

satisfactory to the Seller and TMCC for the purchase of such Class A-2 Notes,
Class A-3 Notes or Class A-4 Notes, as the case may be, by other persons,
including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by
the Closing Date the non-defaulting Class A-2 Underwriters shall be obligated
severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to
purchase the Class A-2 Notes, the non-defaulting Class A-3 Underwriters shall
be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments
hereunder, to purchase the Class A-3 Notes and the non-defaulting Class A-4
Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective
commitments hereunder, to purchase the Class A-4 Notes, in each case that
such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase. If any such
default or defaults occur and such default or defaults exceed 10% of the
total principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes or the
Class A-4 Notes, as the case may be, and arrangements satisfactory to the
Seller and TMCC for the purchase of such Offered Notes by other persons are
not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate
without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Seller
or TMCC, except as provided in Section 9 hereof. As used in this Agreement,
the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for an Underwriter
under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from
liability for its default.

         Section 9. SURVIVAL OF CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AND OBLIGATIONS. The
respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other
statements of the Seller and TMCC or their respective officers and of the
several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain
in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation or statement as to the
results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Seller, TMCC or
any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any
controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered
Notes. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8 hereof or if for
any reason the purchase of the Offered Notes by the Underwriters is not
consummated, the Seller and TMCC shall remain responsible for the expenses to be
paid or reimbursed by the Seller and TMCC pursuant to Section 5(i) hereof and
the respective obligations of the Seller, TMCC and the Underwriters pursuant to
Section 7 hereof shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Notes by
the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of
the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8 hereof or the occurrence
of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 6(c) hereof, the
Seller and TMCC will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses
(including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by it in
connection with the offering of the Offered Notes.

          Section 10. NOTICES. All communications hereunder will be in writing

         (d) Such Underwriter acknowledges that it is not authorized to give any
information or make any representations in relation to the Offered Notes other
than those contained or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus for the
Offered Notes and such additional information, if any, as the Seller or TMCC
shall, in writing, provide to and authorize such Underwriter so to use and
distribute to actual and potential purchasers of Offered Notes; and
