otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse
(except as provided in Sections 6.01 and 7.02), a
100% interest in (i) all right, title and interest of the
Seller in and to the Receivables listed on the
applicable Schedule of Receivables, all monies
constituting Excess Interest Collections with respect
thereto, and all other moneys received thereon on
and after the related Cutoff Date; (ii) the interest of

Seller acknowledges and expressly agrees that either
the Purchaser or the Trustee may enforce the
Seller's repurchase obligations or substitution
obligations pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof for any
breach of any of the following representations and
warranties.
(i) Characteristics of Receivables. Each
Receivable (A) has been originated in the United
States of America by Seller or a Dealer for the
retail sale of a Financed Vehicle in the ordinary
course of Seller's or such Dealer's business, has
been fully and properly executed by the parties
thereto and, if originated by a Dealer, has been
purchased by Seller in the ordinary course of
business from such Dealer or has been financed for
such Dealer under an existing agreement with
Seller, (B) has created a valid, subsisting and
enforceable first priority security interest in favor of
the Seller or the Dealer in the Financed Vehicle,
which security interest, if in favor of the Dealer,
has been assigned by the Dealer to Seller, and
which in either case has been duly assigned by
Seller to the Purchaser, (C) is covered by the VSI
Insurance Policy and (except as otherwise indicated
on the related Schedule of Receivables) by the Risk
Default Insurance Policy, (D) contains customary
and enforceable provisions such that the rights and
remedies of the holder thereof are adequate for
realization against the collateral of the benefits of
the security and (E) provides for level monthly
payments (provided that the payment in the first or
last month in the life of the Receivable may be
different from the level payment) that fully amortize
the Amount Financed over an original term of no
greater than 60 months and yield interest at the
Annual Percentage Rate.
(ii) Schedule of Receivables. The
information set forth on the Schedule of Receivables
is true, complete and correct in all material respects
as of the opening of business on the Cutoff Date
relating to such Sale Date and no selection
procedures adverse to the Purchaser or the Trustee
have been utilized in selecting the Receivables.
(iii) Compliance With Law. Each
Receivable and the sale of the related Financed
Vehicle (A) complied at the time it was originated
or made and at the Sale Date complies in all
material respects with all requirements of applicable
federal, State and local laws and regulations
thereunder, including, without limitation, usury
laws, the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal
Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting
Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the
Federal Trade Commission Act, the
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxx Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve
Board's Regulations B and Z, State adaptations of
the National Consumer Act and of the Uniform
Consumer Credit Code, and other consumer credit
laws and equal credit opportunity and disclosure
laws and (B) does not contravene any applicable
contracts to which Seller is a party and no party to
such contract is in violation of any applicable law,
rule or regulation which is material to the
Receivable or the sale of the Financed Vehicle.
(iv) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable
represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding
payment obligation in writing of the Obligor,
enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance
with its terms. Each Receivable is denominated and
payable solely in U.S. dollars.
(v) No Government Obligor or Affiliate.
None of the Receivables is due from the United
States of America or any State or local government
or from any agency, department or instrumentality
of the United States of America or any State or
local government or from any Affiliate of the
Seller.
(vi) Security Interest in Financed Vehicle.
Immediately prior to the sale, assignment and
transfer thereof, each Receivable is secured by a
validly perfected first priority security interest in
the Financed Vehicle in favor of the Seller as
secured party or all necessary and appropriate
actions have been commenced that would result in
the valid perfection of a first priority security
interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor of the
Seller as the secured party. The Seller has caused
each certificate of title (or copy of an application
for title) or such other document delivered by the
state title registration agency evidencing the security
interest in the Financed Vehicle, to be delivered to
the Custodian, together with powers of attorney,
duly executed by Seller in favor of the Trustee,
which powers of attorney are sufficient to change
the lien holder on the certificate of title with respect
to a Financed Vehicle.
(vii) Receivables in Force. No Receivable
has been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor
has any Financed Vehicle been released from the
lien granted by the related Receivable in whole or
in part.
(viii) No Waiver. No provision of a
Receivable has been waived, impaired, altered or
modified in any respect except in accordance with
the Servicing Agreement, the substance of which is
reflected in the Schedule of Receivables as it relates
to the information included thereon.

been amended such that either the original
Scheduled Payment has been decreased or the
number of originally scheduled due dates has been
increased except as permitted under the terms of the
Risk Default Policy covering such Receivable.
(x) No Defenses. No right of rescission,
setoff, recoupment, counterclaim or defense has
been asserted or threatened with respect to any
Receivable.
(xi) No Liens. No Liens or claims have
been filed for work, labor or materials relating to a
Financed Vehicle that are Liens prior to, or equal
or coordinate with, the security interest in the
Financed Vehicle granted by the Obligor pursuant
to the Receivable.
(xii) No Default. Except for payment
delinquencies continuing for a period of not more
than fifty-nine (59) days as of the applicable Cutoff
Date, no default, breach, violation or event
permitting acceleration under the terms of any
Receivable has occurred; and no continuing
condition that with notice or the lapse of time would
constitute a default, breach, violation or event
permitting acceleration under the terms of any
Receivable has arisen; and the Seller has not waived
any of the foregoing. As of each Sale Date, the
Seller has no knowledge of any facts regarding any
particular Receivable transferred on such date
indicating that such Receivable would not be paid in
full.
(xiii) Insurance. Each Receivable is
covered under the VSI Insurance Policy and (except
as indicated on the related Schedule of Receivables)
the Risk Default Insurance Policy, and each such
insurance policy is valid and remains in full force
and effect. No more than one fifth of one percent
of the Receivables are not covered by a Risk
Default Insurance Policy. The Seller, in accordance
with its customary procedures, has required that
each Obligor obtain, and has determined that each
Obligor has obtained, physical damage insurance
covering the Financed Vehicle as of the date of
execution of the Receivable insuring repair or
replacement of such Financed Vehicle subject to a
deductibility not in excess of $500.
(xiv) Title. It is the intention of the Seller
that the transfer and assignment of the Receivables
from the Seller to the Purchaser herein
contemplated be treated as an absolute sale for
financial accounting purposes, and that the
beneficial interest in and title to the Receivables not
be part of the property of the Seller for any purpose
under state or federal law. No Receivable has been
sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Seller
to any Person other than the Purchaser, except the
pledge to and liens for the benefit of certain of
Seller's creditors which will be released
concurrently with or prior to conveyance to the
Purchaser hereunder. Immediately prior to or
concurrently with the transfer and assignment herein
contemplated, the Seller had good and marketable
title to each Receivable free and clear of all Liens
and rights of others; and, immediately upon the
transfer thereof, the Purchaser will have good and
marketable title to each Receivable, free and clear
of all Liens and rights of others; and the transfer
has been validly perfected under the UCC.
(xv) Lawful Assignment. No Receivable
has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of,
any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer and
assignment of such Receivable under this
Agreement or pursuant to transfers of the related
pass-through certificates is or shall be unlawful,
void or voidable.
(xvi) All Filings Made. All filings
(including, without limitation, UCC filings)
necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Purchaser
a first perfected security interest in the Receivables
have been made.
(xvii) One Original. There is only one
original executed copy of each Receivable.
(xviii) Maturity of Receivables. Each
Receivable had an original maturity of not more
than 60 months. The remaining maturity of each
Receivable was 60 months or less as of the Cutoff
Date.
(xix) Monthly Payments. Each Receivable
provides for level monthly payments (provided that
the payment in the first or last month in the life of
the Receivable may be minimally different from
such level payment) which fully amortize the
amount financed over the original term; provided,
however, that the Risk Default Policies provide that
loan extensions will be allowed, subject to a total
number of extensions of no more than one extension
for each 12 month period or fraction thereof in the
Receivable's term. No Receivables had a payment
that was more than 59 days overdue as of the
applicable Cutoff Date; and each Receivable has a
final scheduled payment due no later than the
applicable Final Scheduled Distribution Date.
(xx) Financing. Each Receivable
represents a Simple Interest Receivable.
(xxi) Bankruptcy Proceeding. Except with
respect to the 1997-1 Trust, no Obligor as of the
respective Cutoff Date is noted in the Seller's
records as the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.
With respect to the 1997-1 Trust, no Receivable as
of the Cutoff Date is noted in the Seller's records as
a discharged debt under a bankruptcy proceeding.
(xxii) Chattel Paper, Valid and Binding.
Each Receivable constitutes "chattel paper" under
the UCC, and is the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Obligor thereunder in accordance
with the terms thereof.
(xxiii) No Future Advances. The full
principal amount of each Receivable has been
advanced to each Obligor or advanced in
accordance with the directions of each such
Obligor, and there is no requirement for future
advances thereunder. The Obligor with respect to
the Receivable does not have any options under
such Receivable to borrow from any person
additional funds secured by the Financed Vehicle.
Each Receivable is secured by the related Financed
Vehicle.
(xxiv) Underwriting Guidelines. Except for
Uninsured Receivables constituting no more than
one-fifth of one percent of the aggregate Principal
Balance of all Receivables being conveyed to any
single Trust, and Nonconforming Insured
Receivables constituting no more than 1% of the
aggregate Principal Balance of all Receivables being
conveyed to any single Trust, each Receivable has
been originated in accordance with the Underwriting
Guidelines and in accordance with the underwriting
guidelines acceptable to the Risk Default Insurer.
(xxv) Financed Vehicle in Good Repair.
To the best of the Seller's knowledge, each
Financed Vehicle is in good repair and working
order.
(xxvi) Principal Balance. No Receivable
has a Principal Balance which includes capitalized
interest, physical damage insurance or late charges.
The maximum principal balance of any Receivable
does not exceed $40,000 or such lesser maximum
amount as is permitted under the Underwriting
Guidelines.
(xxvii) Servicing. At the Cutoff Date, each
Receivable was being serviced by the Servicer.
(xxviii) Eligible Loan. Each Receivable
constitutes an "Instrument" or "Insured Security
Agreement" and each Financed Vehicle constitutes
"Eligible Collateral" as defined in and for purposes
of the Risk Default Insurance Policy. Neither the
insured under the Risk Default Insurance Policy nor
any Person acting on behalf of such insured has
concealed or misrepresented any material facts or
circumstances regarding any matter that would
serve as a basis for the Risk Default Insurer to void
the Risk Default Insurance Policy.
(xxix) Original Principal Amount. The
original principal amount of each Receivable with
respect to which a credit application was received
by Aegis Finance prior to January 15, 1997 and
which was (A) originated under the original "Zero

such case, if any such amount is higher than that

replaced Receivable and the outstanding Principal
Balance of the Substitute Receivable shall be paid in
cash to Purchaser for deposit into the Collection
Account pursuant to the related Pooling and
Servicing Agreement; (ii) the remaining term to
maturity of the Substitute Receivable shall not be
greater than that of the replaced Receivable; (iii) the
Cutoff Date with respect to the Substitute
Receivable shall be deemed to be the first day of
the month of the substitution; (iv) the Substitute
Receivable otherwise satisfies the conditions of
Section 3.01(b) hereof and the applicable
Supplemental Conveyance (the Seller shall be
deemed to make all representations and warranties
contained in Section 3.01(b) and (c) hereof and the

documents specified in Section 4.01(c) hereof with
respect to the Substitute Receivable on or before the
date of substitution.

above, the repurchase obligation of the Seller shall
constitute the sole remedy of the Certificateholders,
the Trustee or the Purchaser against the Seller for
its breach hereunder; provided, that the Seller
hereby acknowledges that any of the Purchaser, the
Certificateholders or the Trustee may enforce the
Seller's obligation to repurchase or substitute for
nonconforming Receivables pursuant to this Section
7.02.

Nonconforming Receivables. With respect to all
Receivables repurchased or substituted for by the

warranty, to the Seller all the Purchaser's right,
title and interest in and to such Receivables, and all
security and documents relating thereto.
