Report of Assessment of Compliance with Servicing Criteria As defined in Section 4.02(a) of the Servicing Agreement.
Annual Report of Assessment of Compliance with Servicing Criteria (a) The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants, who may also render other services to the Servicer, the Depositor or their Affiliates, to deliver to the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee on or before March 15 of each year, beginning March 15, 2016 (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), a report (the “Report of Assessment of Compliance with Servicing Criteria”) delivered to the Board of Directors of the Servicer and to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee that satisfies the requirements of Rule 13a-18 or Rule 15d-18 under the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as applicable, on the assessment of compliance with Servicing Criteria with respect to the prior calendar year. The certificates and reports referred to in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(b) and this Section 4.02(a) shall be delivered within 120 days after the end of each calendar year if the Issuing Entity is not required to file periodic reports under the Exchange Act or any other law, beginning April 30, 2017.
Replacement of Servicer (a) If a Servicer Replacement Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the direction of Holders of at least 66 2/3% of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Outstanding Notes, by notice given to the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Issuer, the Administrator and the Noteholders, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the Receivables. In the event the Servicer is removed or resigns as Servicer with respect to servicing the Receivables, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a successor Servicer. Upon the Servicer’s receipt of notice of termination the predecessor Servicer will continue to perform its functions as Servicer under this Agreement only until the date specified in such termination notice or, if no such date is specified in such termination notice, until receipt of such notice. If a successor Servicer has not been appointed at the time when the predecessor Servicer ceases to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section, the Indenture Trustee without further action will automatically be appointed the successor Servicer. Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture Trustee, if it is legally unable or is unwilling to so act, will appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Servicer. Any successor Servicer shall be an established institution having a net worth of not less than $100,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of comparable motor vehicle receivables having an aggregate outstanding principal balance of not less than $50,000,000.
Servicer Compliance Statement On or before March 1 of each calendar year, commencing in 2007, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner and any Depositor a statement of compliance addressed to the Owner and such Depositor and signed by an authorized officer of the Servicer, to the effect that (i) a review of the Servicer’s activities during the immediately preceding calendar year (or applicable portion thereof) and of its performance under this Agreement and any applicable Reconstitution Agreement during such period has been made under such officer’s supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement and any applicable Reconstitution Agreement in all material respects throughout such calendar year (or applicable portion thereof) or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifically identifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and the status thereof.
