SALOMON SMITH BARNEY DaimlerChrysler Auto Trust 2002-C DaimlerChrysler Services North America LLC, Seller and Servicer Subject to Revision Term Sheet dated October 15, 2002 The trust will issue $2,069,366,000.00 of securities backed by automobile and light duty truck receivables purchased directly from DaimlerChrysler Services North America LLC.

2 TRANSACTION ILLUSTRATION on or about October 25, 2002 (approximate $ thousands) [GRAPH OMITTED] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Not being offered publicly or in this document. The certificates are subordinated. (2) As set forth on page 17 of this document. 3

Other points to consider include: o the outstanding principal of each class of notes is due by its maturity date (each a "Legal Final"), o the offered securities will be issued on or about October 25, 2002 in book-entry form through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company, Clearstream and the Euroclear System, and o by October 25, 2002, three nationally recognized rating agencies will rate the offered securities in the highest investment rating category. RECEIVABLES POOL On October 25, 2002, the trust will use the proceeds from the issuance of the securities to purchase a pool of automobile and light duty truck receivables from the seller. Collections on this pool of receivables will be the trust's principal source of funds for making payments on the securities. The following information about the receivables is as of October 9, 2002 (the "Cut-off Date"). 5 The receivables pool had the following characteristics: Composition of the Receivables Pool As of October 9, 2002 Aggregate Principal Balance $2,183,399,690.47 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Number of Receivables 125,308 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Average Principal Balance $17,424.26 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Weighted Average APR 5.93% ------------------------------------------------------------------ Weighted Average Original Term 60.27 months ------------------------------------------------------------------ Weighted Average Remaining Term 54.28 months ------------------------------------------------------------------ The receivables pool had the following new vehicle/used vehicle distribution:

6 The receivables pool had the following distribution by APR:

7 The following table lists the eleven states with the largest percentage concentration of the aggregate principal balance of the receivables pool based on the physical address of the dealer originating the receivable. No other state accounts for more than 3.0% of the aggregate principal balance of the receivables pool as of October 9, 2002.

8 Selection Criteria We used the following criteria to select the receivables pool: o Each receivable was originally purchased by the seller from dealers in the ordinary course of its business. o Interest on each receivable is computed using the simple interest method. o As of October 9, 2002: - no receivable was more than 30 days past due (an account is not considered past due if the amount past due is less than 10% of the scheduled monthly payment); - no receivable was the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding; - each receivable had a remaining principal balance of at least $1,000.00; and - each receivable had a scheduled maturity before October 1, 2008. The seller believes its selection procedures are not adverse to securityholders. NET CREDIT LOSS AND DELINQUENCY EXPERIENCE Net credit loss experience is dependent upon general economic conditions, the number of repossessions, the amount of principal and accrued interest outstanding on the receivable at the time of repossession, and the resale values of the repossessed vehicles. The following tables detail the net credit loss, repossession and delinquency experience of DCS's United States portfolio of new and used automobile and light duty truck retail receivables. The information includes: o an immaterial amount of retail receivables secured by vehicles other than automobiles and light duty trucks, and o previously sold contracts which DCS continues to service. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts and percentages are based on estimated gross collections, including principal and interest. We cannot assure you that the delinquency, repossession and net credit loss experience on the receivables sold to the trust will be comparable to the following historical experience. 9

PAYMENTS ON THE SECURITIES Payment Dates o Interest and principal will be payable on the 8th of each month. If the 8th is not a business day, then interest and principal will be payable on the next business day. o The first payment will be on December 9, 2002. o Payments will be payable to securityholders of record on the business day before the payment date. Interest Payments o The first interest payment will be calculated on the original principal amount of each class of notes at the applicable per annum interest rate. o Subsequent interest payments will be calculated on the outstanding principal balance of each note class as of the prior payment date (after giving effect to any payment of principal on that date) at the applicable per annum interest rate. o To calculate interest due on the A-1 notes on a payment date, the per annum interest rates will be converted from an annual rate as follows: 11

o To calculate the interest due on the A-2, A-3 and A-4 notes on a payment date, the per annum interest rates will be converted from an annual rate as follows:

o Interest payments on all classes of notes will have the same priority. If the available amount for interest payments, including the balance in the reserve fund, is less than the amount due, each class of notes will receive their pro rata share. Refer to the "Flow of Funds" section for information on how the amount available for interest payments is determined. Also refer to the "Credit Enhancement - Reserve Fund" section for information on how the reserve fund may be used to make interest payments. Principal Payments o The amount of principal payments on the securities on each payment date will generally equal the amount of principal that was collected on the receivables during the prior calendar month plus Excess Interest Collections minus the overcollateralization distribution amount. o Principal of each class of notes will generally be repaid over a span of several consecutive months. o The trust will pay principal sequentially to the earliest maturing class of notes then outstanding until such class is paid in full. o The certificates will not receive any principal payments until all notes are paid in full. o The trust is required to pay the outstanding principal of each class of notes by the applicable Legal Final. o The final principal payment on any class of notes could occur significantly earlier than its Legal Final. o The rate of principal payment on the notes will increase to the extent Excess Interest Collections are applied to pay note principal. 12 Refer to the "Flow of Funds" section for information on how the amount available for principal payments is determined. Refer to the "Credit Enhancement" section for information on Excess Interest Collections. Optional Redemption The servicer will have the option to purchase all of the remaining receivables from the trust when their aggregate principal balance declines to an amount that is less than or equal to 10% of the initial aggregate principal balance of the receivables, or $218,339,969.05 or less. If the servicer decides to exercise this option, then the outstanding principal amounts of the A-4 notes and the certificates, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, will be repaid in a lump sum payment. The lump sum payment under this optional redemption will shorten the maturity of the A-4 notes and certificates. FLOW OF FUNDS Sources of Funds Available for Distribution Funds from the following sources may be available to make payments on the securities on each payment date: o collections received on the receivables during the prior calendar month, o net recoveries received during the prior calendar month on receivables that were charged off as losses in prior months, o investment earnings on the reserve fund received during the prior calendar month, o administrative and/or warranty repurchases, and o the reserve fund. 13 Application of Available Funds On each monthly payment date the total funds available (except for the reserve fund) will be distributed in the following order of priority: Monthly Flow of Funds ---------------------------------------------------- pay servicing fee ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay accrued interest on the notes ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- replenish reserve fund, if necessary, up to the initial amount ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay up to the outstanding principal amount of the A-1 notes ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay the overcollateralization distribution amount, if any, to DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay up to the outstanding principal amount of the A-2 notes ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay up to the outstanding principal amount of the A-3 notes ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay up to the outstanding principal amount of the A-4 notes ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- pay up to the outstanding principal amount of the certificates ---------------------------------------------------- | | ---------------------------------------------------- distribute remaining balance, if any, to DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC ---------------------------------------------------- 14 CREDIT ENHANCEMENT The following forms of credit enhancement are intended to enhance the likelihood of full payment of principal and interest due to the noteholders and to decrease the likelihood that the noteholders will experience losses of principal or interest on their notes. Overcollateralization Overcollateralization is represented by the amount by which (i) the principal balance of receivables minus the yield supplement overcollateralization amount exceeds (ii) the principal balance of the securities. The initial overcollateralization amount of $62,081,325.39 is equal to the initial receivables balance of $2,183,399,690.47 minus the initial yield supplement overcollateralization amount of $51,952,365.08 minus the initial principal amount of the securities of $2,069,366,000.00. This excess collateral is intended to protect noteholders from losses on the receivables. The Trust will attempt to maintain an overcollateralization amount (i.e., the amount by which (i) the principal balance of the receivables minus the yield supplement overcollateralization amount exceeds (ii) the principal balance of the securities) at least equal to 3.75% of the amount equal to (x) the principal balance of the receivables as of the prior calendar month end minus (y) the yield supplement overcollateralization amount for that payment date. Once the Class A-1 Notes are paid in full, total funds available (except funds in the reserve fund) after paying the servicing fee, accrued and unpaid interest on the notes and any reserve fund deposit will be applied (i) to the payment of principal of the securities and (ii) to pay the overcollateralization distribution amount to DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC. As illustrated in the "Application of Available Funds" section, the trust may begin making payments of the overcollateralization distribution amount to DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC on the same payment date on which the A-1 notes are paid in full. No overcollateralization distribution will be made in any month in which the balance of the reserve fund is below $5,173,415.00. The overcollateralization distribution amount to be distributed on each payment date will be the greater of:

15 Excess Interest Collections "Excess Interest Collections" are generally equal to (A) the sum of (i) interest collections received on the receivables during the prior calendar month, (ii) principal collections attributable to the reduction in the yield supplement overcollateralization amount from the prior payment date and (iii) investment earnings on the reserve fund received during the prior calendar month minus (B) the sum of (i) the servicing fee for the prior calendar month, (ii) accrued interest on the notes, and (iii) the amount, if any, required to replenish the reserve fund to $5,173,415.00. Excess Interest Collections provide an additional form of credit enhancement since they will be applied to the payment of principal of the securities to the extent described above under the "Flow of Funds - Application of Available Funds" section. If credit losses on receivables and delinquent receivables decrease the amount of interest collections received on the receivables in a month, Excess Interest Collections will be reduced or eliminated for such month. Reserve Fund o On October 25, 2002, the seller will provide funds from the proceeds of its sale of receivables to establish a $5,173,415.00 reserve fund. o The indenture trustee will hold the reserve fund for the benefit of the noteholders. o The reserve fund will be invested in high quality, short term investments which mature on or prior to each monthly payment date. o If the total funds available for distribution minus the servicing fee is less than accrued interest on the notes, the reserve fund will be available to make interest payments. o If a class of notes has not been paid in full on its Legal Final, the reserve fund will be applied to the payment of principal for that class of notes. o If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the notes exceeds the outstanding principal balance of the receivables as of the prior calendar month end, the reserve fund will be applied to the payment of principal of the notes. o As illustrated in the "Flow of Funds" section above, on each payment date the reserve fund will be reinstated up to the initial balance to the extent funds are available. o After full payment of all accrued interest on the notes and the outstanding principal balance of the securities, the reserve fund will be distributed to DaimlerChrysler Retail Receivables LLC. Subordinated Certificates As additional credit enhancement, the certificates do not bear interest and will not receive any principal payments until the notes are paid in full. The payments on the certificates are subordinated to payments on the notes to decrease the likelihood that the trust will default in making payments due on the notes. 16 YIELD SUPPLEMENT OVERCOLLATERALIZATION AMOUNT For a portion of the Receivables, the weighted average APR less the servicing fee rate will be less than the weighted average interest rate of the notes. The yield supplement overcollateralization amount is intended to mitigate such negative differential. "Yield Supplement Overcollateralization Amount" means, with respect to any payment date, the amount specified below with respect to such payment date:

17 The yield supplement overcollateralization amount has been calculated for each payment date as the sum of the amount for each Receivable equal to the excess, if any, of o the scheduled payment due on such Receivable for each future collection period discounted to present value as of the end of the preceding collection period at the APR of such Receivable, over o the scheduled payments due on the Receivable for each future collection period discounted to present value as of the end of the preceding collection period at 4.0%. For purposes of such calculation, future scheduled payments on the Receivables are assumed to be made on their scheduled due dates without any delays, defaults or prepayments. SERVICING Compensation o The servicer will be compensated on a monthly basis. o The first servicing fee will be calculated on the original principal amount of the receivables at 1/12th of 1% per month. o For the first servicing fee calculation, the per annum servicing fee rate will be converted from an annual rate using the number of days from October 9, 2002 to and including November 30, 2002 on a 30/360 basis, or 51 days. o Subsequent servicing fees will be calculated on the principal balance of the receivables as of the first day of the prior calendar month at 1/12th of 1%. o As illustrated in the "Flow of Funds" section above, the servicing fee will be paid out of the total funds available for distribution each month. 18
