without recourse, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all of
the Eligible Receivables existing in the Accounts listed on the Schedule of
Accounts (which is kept at locations listed in EXHIBIT A) as of the close of
business on the Initial Cut-Off Date and all monies due or to become due thereon
after the Initial Cut-Off Date, all Collateral Security with respect thereto and
all amounts received with respect thereto (including all Interest Collections

or not received prior to the Initial Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof
(including "proceeds" as defined in SECTION 9-306 of the UCC and Recoveries).
(b) Subject to SECTION 6.02, as of each Receivables Purchase Date,
GMAC does hereby sell, transfer, assign and otherwise convey to the Purchaser,

Eligible Receivables created or deemed created in the Accounts in the Pool of

respect thereto and all proceeds thereof (including "proceeds" as defined in
SECTION 9-306 of the UCC and Recoveries).
(c) It is the intention of GMAC and the Purchaser that the transfers
and assignments contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute sales of the
property described in SECTIONS 2.01(A) AND (B) from GMAC to the Purchaser and
that the beneficial interest in and title to such property shall not be part of
GMAC's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against
GMAC under any Insolvency Law. The foregoing sales, transfers, assignments and
conveyances and any subsequent sales, transfers, assignments and conveyances
contemplated hereby do not constitute, and are not intended to result in, the
creation or an assumption by the Purchaser of any obligation of the Servicer,
GMAC (if GMAC is not the Servicer), General Motors or any other Person in
connection with the Receivables described above or under any agreement or
instrument relating thereto, including any obligation to any Dealers.

hereunder. Such Receivables, together with any Receivables repurchased by GMAC
or (so long as GMAC is the Servicer) the Servicer from the Purchaser or the
Trust pursuant to this Agreement or the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, all
monies due or to become due on such Receivables, all amounts received with
respect thereto and all proceeds thereof (including "proceeds" as defined in
SECTION 9-306 of the UCC and Recoveries) are collectively referred to herein as
the "RETAINED PROPERTY".

for the sale of the property described in SECTION 2.01(A) to the Purchaser, the
Purchaser shall pay to GMAC [$ ] (representing the aggregate principal balance
of the Receivables as of the close of business on the Initial Cut-Off Date so
sold on the Initial Closing Date) in immediately available
p&s.form.01.wpd - 2 -
funds, and GMAC shall deliver to the Purchaser an executed assignment
substantially in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto. The Purchaser shall pay, subject
to SECTION 6.02, for property described in SECTION 2.03 sold by GMAC to the
Purchaser on each Addition Date and property described in SECTION 2.01(B) sold

Such purchase price shall be payable by the Purchaser on each such date in
immediately available funds.
SECTION 2.03 ADDITION OF ACCOUNTS.
--------------------
(a) OFFERS TO DESIGNATE ADDITIONAL ACCOUNTS. From time to time, GMAC

specified in SECTION 2.03(B) below. If the Purchaser, at its option, elects to
accept any such offer by GMAC or if GMAC, at its option, agrees to any such
request of the Purchaser, GMAC shall sell and assign to the Purchaser, and the
Purchaser shall purchase from GMAC, all of GMAC's right, title and interest in,
to and under all of the Eligible Receivables in each such Additional Account as

behalf of GMAC, to the Purchaser (the "GMAC ADDITION NOTICE"). Effective as of

of Accounts and Eligible Receivables arising therein from and after the
Additional Cut-Off Date shall be subject to purchase under SECTION 2.01(B)

On and after the Removal Commencement Date with respect to a Selected Account,
GMAC shall not transfer Receivables with respect to such Selected Account to the

the written request of GMAC, the Purchaser shall assign to GMAC, without
recourse, representation or warranty, effective as of the Removal Date, all of
the Purchaser's right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables
arising in such Account and related Collateral Security.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES
SECTION 3.01 APPOINTMENT OF SERVICER AND ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT. The
Purchaser and GMAC hereby appoint the Servicer to act as Servicer with respect
to the Eligible Receivables and the Receivables included in the Retained
Property, existing in or arising under the Accounts included in the Pool of
Accounts from time to time and authorize the Servicer to perform the duties of
Servicer under this Agreement and under the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement.
The Servicer by execution of this Agreement and by execution of the Trust Sale
and Servicing Agreement hereby accepts such appointment and the terms hereof and
thereof.
SECTION 3.02RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE SERVICER.
(a) The Servicer shall manage, service and administer the
Receivables described in SECTION 3.01, including, without limitation, collecting
payments due under the Receivables and providing for charge-offs of
uncollectible Receivables, with reasonable care and all in accordance with the
Servicer's customary and usual servicing procedures for servicing wholesale
receivables comparable to the Receivables which the Servicer services for its
own account, including the Floor Plan Financing Guidelines, except insofar as
any failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the interests
of Securityholders. The Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting
alone or through any party properly designated by it hereunder or under the
Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with
such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable,
including monitoring the insurance maintained by Dealers. The Servicer is hereby
authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of any Interested Party,
a Proceeding to enforce any Receivable subject hereto, to enforce all
obligations of GMAC and the Purchaser under this Agreement and under the Trust
Sale and Servicing Agreement or to commence or participate in a Proceeding
(including without limitation a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving
any such Receivable. If in any Proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not
enforce a Receivable arising under an Account in the Pool of Accounts on the
ground that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce
such Receivable, the Purchaser, GMAC and each other Interested Party shall, at
the Servicer's expense, take such steps as the Servicer reasonably deems
necessary or appropriate to enforce the Receivable, including bringing suit in
the name of such
p&s.form.01.wpd - 5 -
Person. If the Servicer commences or participates in such a Proceeding in its
own name, each Interested Party shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically
assigned such Receivable to the Servicer for purposes of commencing or
participating in any such Proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is
hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver in the Servicer's name
any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other
documents or instruments in connection with any such Proceeding. Each Interested
Party shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents
and take any other steps which the Servicer may reasonably deem necessary or
appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative
duties under this Agreement and the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement. Except
to the extent required by the preceding two sentences, the authority and rights
granted to the Servicer in this SECTION 3.02 shall be nonexclusive and shall not
be construed to be in derogation of the retention by any Interested Party (to
the extent of its rights in a Receivable) of equivalent authority and rights.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to any Servicing
Default, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered, unless such power and
authority is revoked by any Interested Party on account of the occurrence of
such a Servicing Default, to:
(i) instruct the Issuer to make allocations, withdrawals and
payments to or from the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the
Reserve Fund, the Cash Accumulation Reserve Fund and any other related
bank accounts or funds as set forth in the Trust Sale and Servicing
Agreement;
(ii) instruct the Issuer or any Interested Party to take
any action required or permitted under any Specified Support Arrangement;
(iii) execute and deliver, on behalf of the Issuer for the
benefit of any related Securityholders, any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge,
and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables and,
after the delinquency of any Receivable and to the extent permitted under
and in compliance with applicable requirements of law, to commence
enforcement proceedings with respect to any such Receivable; and
(iv) make any filings, reports, notices, applications,
registrations with, and seek any consents or authorizations from, the
Securities and Exchange Commission and any State securities authority on
behalf of the Issuer as may be necessary or advisable to comply with any
federal or State securities law or reporting requirement.
(b) The Servicer shall not be obligated to use separate servicing
procedures, offices, employees or accounts for servicing the Receivables in the
Accounts in the Pool of Accounts from the procedures, offices, employees and
accounts used by the Servicer in connection with servicing other receivables.
The Servicer shall, at its own expense, on or prior to the Initial Closing Date,
in the case of the Initial Accounts, and on or prior to the applicable Addition
Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, indicate in its computer files that
the Eligible Receivables in the Accounts in the Pool of Accounts have been sold
and transferred by GMAC to the Purchaser hereunder and by the Purchaser to the
Trust under the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement.
p&s.form.01.wpd - 6 -
(c) Except as otherwise required to comply with all Requirements of
Law, the Servicer may change the terms and provisions of the Floor Plan
Financing Agreements or the Floor Plan Financing Guidelines in any respect
(including the calculation of the amount or the timing of charge-offs and the
rate of the finance charge assessed thereon), only if:
(i) in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, no Early
Amortization Event shall occur as a result of such change;
(ii) such change is made applicable to the comparable segment
of any similar portfolio of accounts serviced by the Servicer and not only
to the Accounts in the Pool of Accounts; and
(iii) in the case of a reduction in the rate of such finance
charges, the Servicer (and, if GMAC is not then the Servicer, GMAC) does
not reasonably expect any such reduction, after considering amounts due
and amounts payable under any Specified Support Agreements and Investment
Proceeds for the related period, to result in the Net Receivables Rate for
any Collection Period being less than the sum of (A) the weighted average
of the rates of interest payable to all holders of Securities and (B) the
Monthly Servicing Fee for the related period;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing herein shall prevent the Servicer from modifying
the terms of the Floor Plan Financing Agreement with any dealer on a
case-by-case basis in a manner consistent with the Floor Plan Financing
Guidelines.
SECTION 3.03 SERVICING COMPENSATION; PAYMENT OF CERTAIN EXPENSES BY THE
SERVICER. The Servicer is entitled to receive the Monthly Servicing Fee as
described in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Monthly Servicing Fee
shall be payable to the Servicer solely to the extent amounts are available for
payment in accordance with the terms of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement.
Subject to any limitations on the Servicer's liability under the Trust Sale and
Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred
by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement and the Trust Sale
and Servicing Agreement (including disbursements of the Issuer, fees and
disbursements of any trustees, accountants and outside auditors, taxes imposed
on the Servicer, expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports
to Securityholders and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under
this Agreement or the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement to be for the account
of the Securityholders, but in no event including federal, state and local
income and franchise taxes, if any, of the Issuer or any holder of the
Securities).
SECTION 3.04REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE
SERVICER.
(a) The Servicer hereby makes, and any successor Servicer by its
appointment under this Agreement and under the Trust Sale and Servicing
Agreement shall make, on each Closing Date (and on the date of any such
appointment) the following representations, warranties
p&s.form.01.wpd - 7 -
and covenants on which the Purchaser relies in accepting and holding the
Receivables and the related Collateral Security hereunder and the Issuer shall
rely in acquiring and holding such Receivables and the related Collateral
Security under the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement and in issuing the
Securities:
(i) ORGANIZATION AND GOOD STANDING. The Servicer has been duly
organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under
the laws of the State of Delaware (or, in the case of a Servicer other
than GMAC, other applicable law of its jurisdiction of incorporation),
with power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its
businesses as such properties are presently owned and such businesses are
presently conducted.
(ii) DUE QUALIFICATION. The Servicer is duly qualified to do
business and, where necessary, is in good standing as a foreign
corporation (or is exempt from such requirement) and has obtained all
necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction in which the conduct
of its businesses requires such qualification, except where the failure to
so qualify or obtain licenses or approvals would not have material adverse
effect on its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(iii) POWER AND AUTHORITY. The Servicer has the power and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Trust Sale and
Servicing Agreement, to carry out the terms of each such agreement and to
service the Accounts in the Pool of Accounts and the Receivables arising
therein as provided herein and in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement,
and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement have been duly authorized by the
Servicer by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Servicer.
(iv) BINDING OBLIGATION. This Agreement constitutes, and the
Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, when duly executed and delivered by
the Servicer, shall constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Servicer enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except
as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereinafter in
effect, affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights in general and by
general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(v) NO VIOLATION. The execution of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement by the Servicer and the fulfillment of
the terms of this Agreement and the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement by
the Servicer, shall not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the
terms and provisions of or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of
time) a default under, the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the
Servicer, or any indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other
instrument to which the Servicer is a party or by which it is bound, or
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its
properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement,
mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument (other than pursuant to the
Basic Documents), or violate any law or, to the best of the Servicer's
knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Servicer
p&s.form.01.wpd - 8 -
of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer or any
of its properties, except where any such conflict or violation would not
have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations
under this Agreement or the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(vi) NO PROCEEDINGS. To the Servicer's knowledge, there are no
Proceedings or investigations pending, or threatened, against the Servicer
before any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer or
its properties (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or the Trust
Sale and Servicing Agreement or any Securities issued thereunder, (B)
seeking to prevent the issuance of the such Securities, the execution of
this Agreement or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement or (C) seeking
any determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect the
performance by the Servicer of its obligations under, or the validity and
enforceability of, this Agreement or the Trust Sale and Servicing
Agreement.
(vii) COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. The Servicer shall
duly satisfy all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in
connection with the Receivables and the Accounts to be serviced under this
Agreement and the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, shall maintain in
effect all qualifications required under Requirements of Law in order to
service properly such Receivables and such Accounts and shall comply in
all material respects with all Requirements of Law in connection with
servicing such Receivables and such Accounts, except, in each case, where
a failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the
interests of the Securityholders.
(viii)NO RESCISSION OR CANCELLATION. Except pursuant to the
Floor Plan Financing Guidelines, the Servicer shall not permit any
rescission or cancellation of any Receivable sold and assigned to the
Purchaser hereunder that the Servicer services under this Agreement and
the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, except as ordered by a court of
competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority.
(ix) PROTECTION OF INTERESTED PARTY RIGHTS. The Servicer shall
take no action, nor omit to take any action, which would impair the rights
or interests of Interested Parties in the Receivables sold and assigned to
the Purchaser hereunder that the Servicer services under this Agreement
and the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement or in the related Vehicle
Collateral Security nor shall it reschedule, revise or defer payments due
on any such Receivable except, in each case, in a manner consistent with
the Floor Plan Financing Guidelines or as otherwise contemplated herein or
in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Servicer shall not permit
any such Receivable to become subject to any right of set-off or any
offsetting balance.
(x) NEGATIVE PLEDGE. Except for the conveyances hereunder to
