transfer to the Issuer, without recourse except as set forth herein: (i) the Initial
5
Receivables, and all moneys received thereon on or after the Initial Cutoff Date; and

Closing Date, receive an amount equal to the Receivables Purchase Price in immediately
available funds.

to the Issuer, without recourse except as set forth herein: (i) the related Subsequent
Receivables, and all moneys received thereon on or after the applicable Cutoff Date; and

(e) Transfer. It is the intention of the Depositor and the Issuer that each transfer
hereunder constitute an absolute transfer of the Receivables and the Deposited Assets from
the Depositor to the Issuer with the intention of removing them from the Depositor’s estate
pursuant to Xxxxxxx 000 xx xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Bankruptcy Code, as the same may be amended
from time to time, or any successor provision thereto. If, notwithstanding the express
intention of the parties, this Agreement is deemed not to constitute an absolute transfer of
the Receivables and the related Deposited Assets from the Depositor to the Issuer, this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Article 8 and
Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York, and the
conveyance provided for in this Section 2.01 shall be deemed to be a grant by the
Depositor to the Issuer of a valid first priority perfected security interest in all of the
Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Receivables and the Deposited Assets.
Section 2.02. The Closing. The transfer of the Initial Receivables shall take place at a
closing (the “Closing”), on the Closing Date, simultaneously with the grant by the Issuer of all of
its right, title and interest in and to the Initial Receivables and related Deposited Assets to the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, and the issuance of the Notes pursuant to the
Indenture.
Section 2.03. Funding Dates. The transfer of Subsequent Receivables on a Funding Date shall
take place at such location as the Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee may
6
reasonably agree. The transfer of Subsequent Receivables shall be made in accordance with
Sections 2.12 through 2.14 of the Indenture pursuant to which (a) the Depositor
will transfer all of its right, title and interest in and to the Subsequent Receivables and the
related Deposited Assets to the Issuer, and (b) the Issuer will confirm the grant of all of its
right, title and interest in and to such Subsequent Receivables and the related Deposited Assets to
the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, the Agent and the Financial Institutions.
Article III
Representations and Warranties
Section 3.01. Representations and Warranties of the Issuer. The Issuer hereby represents and
warrants to the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer as of the

(a) Organization, Etc. The Issuer is a statutory trust duly formed, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with full power and authority
to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform the terms and provisions hereof; the
Issuer is duly qualified to do business as a foreign business entity in good standing, and
has obtained all required licenses and approvals, if any, in all jurisdictions in which the
ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business (including, without
limitation, the purchase of the Receivables from the Depositor hereunder and under each
Depositor Assignment, the conveyance of the Receivables by the Issuer pursuant to the
Indenture, and the performance of its other obligations under this Agreement, each Depositor
Assignment and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party) requires such
qualifications except those jurisdictions in which failure to be so qualified would not have
a material adverse effect on the business or operations of the Issuer, on the ability of the
Issuer to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents, or on the Noteholders,
the Receivables or the Trust Estate.
(b) Due Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of this
Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action, do not require any approval or
consent of any Person, do not and will not conflict with any provision of the Issuer Trust
Agreement, and do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach which would
constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under any agreement,
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other instrument binding upon or applicable to it or
its property, or any law or governmental regulation or court decree applicable to it or its
property, do not and will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of
its properties pursuant to the terms of any indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust,
or other instrument (other than as expressly provided in the Transaction Documents), and
this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer enforceable in
accordance with its terms except as the same may be limited by insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights
or by general equity principles.
(c) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending, or to the
Issuer’s knowledge, threatened, before any court, regulatory body, administrative
7

properties: (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, any Depositor Assignment, the
Indenture, the Notes, or any other Transaction Document; (B) seeking to prevent the issuance
of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
any Depositor Assignment, the Indenture or any other Transaction Document to which it is a
party; (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect
the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability
of, this Agreement, any Depositor Assignment, the Indenture, the Notes or any other
Transaction Document to which it is a party; (D) which might adversely affect the federal or
State income, excise, franchise or similar tax attributes of the Notes; or (E) that could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Receivables.
(d) Business Purpose. The Issuer will acquire the Receivables for a bona fide business
purpose and has undertaken the transactions contemplated herein as principal rather than as
agent for the Depositor or any other person.
(e) Issuer’s Records. The books and records of the Issuer will disclose that the
Depositor transferred the Receivables to the Issuer; provided, however, the Issuer

Section 3.02. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor. The Depositor hereby
represents and warrants to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer
as of the Closing Date and each Funding Date (except as otherwise provided):
(a) On the Closing Date, with respect to the Initial Receivables, and on the related
Funding Date, with respect to the Subsequent Receivables:
(i) Characteristics of Receivables. Each Receivable (A) was originated by the
Contributor or a Dealer for the retail sale or refinancing of a Financed Vehicle in the
ordinary course of the Contributor’s or such Dealer’s business, and the Contributor or
8
such Dealer had all necessary licenses and permits to originate Receivables in the
State where the Contributor or such Dealer was located (except for any Ineligible
Receivable), was fully and properly executed by the parties thereto, and, in the case of
Receivables originated by a Dealer, was purchased by the Contributor from such Dealer under
an existing Dealer Agreement with the Contributor and was validly assigned by such Dealer to
the Contributor, (B) was purchased by the Depositor from the Contributor pursuant to the
Contribution Agreement and was validly assigned by the Contributor to the Depositor, (C)
contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of
the holder thereof adequate for realization against the collateral security, (D) is not a
Rule of 78s Receivable or a pre-computed interest Receivable, but is a fully amortizing
simple interest receivable which provides for level monthly payments (provided that the
payment or payments in the first Collection Period and the final Collection Period of the
life of the Receivable may be different from the level payment) which, if made when due,
shall fully amortize the Amount Financed over the original term, (E) provides that, in the
event such Receivable is prepaid, such prepayment fully pays the principal balance and all
accrued and unpaid interest through the date of such prepayment at an interest rate equal to
or greater than the APR, (F) has not been amended, rewritten, modified or deferred, nor any
provisions thereof waived, except in accordance with the Collection Policy and the
provisions of the Transaction Documents, (G) is payable in United States dollars and (H)
does not entitle the Contributor to reduce, nor has the Contributor reduced, the APR under
such Receivable to below 4%. No Subsequent Receivable will be a Chapter 13 Receivable, an
Ultra Receivable or a Lendco Receivable, as of its transfer date.
(ii) No Fraud or Misrepresentation. Each Receivable was originated by a Dealer and was
sold by the Dealer to the Contributor, or was originated by the Contributor, and was
transferred by the Contributor to the Depositor without any fraud or material
misrepresentation on the part of such Dealer or the Contributor or on the part of the
related Obligor.
(iii) Compliance with Law. 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 Billing Act, the
Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade
Commission Act, the Federal Trade Commission Credit Practices Rule, the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxx
Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulations “B” and “Z,” the Servicemembers’ Civil
Relief Act of 2003, Division 3 of the California Vehicle Code, State unfair and deceptive
trade practices laws and 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) in respect of all of the Receivables, each and every sale of Financed
Vehicles have been complied with in all material respects, and each Receivable and the sale
of the Financed Vehicle evidenced by each Receivable complied in all material respects at
the time such Receivable or sale was originated or made and now complies in all material
respects with all applicable legal requirements.
9
(iv) Origination. Each Receivable was originated in the United States, and each
Receivable (other than the Lendco Receivables and the Ultra Receivables), at the time of
origination, conformed to requirements of the Contributor’s then current “Underwriting
Guidelines” (the most recent copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C) and
credit policies applicable to such Receivable.
(v) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable represents the genuine, legal, valid and
binding payment obligation of the Obligor thereon, enforceable by the holder thereof in
accordance with its terms, except (A) as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights
generally and by equitable limitations on the availability of specific remedies, regardless
of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law and (B) as
such Receivable may be modified by the application after the related Cutoff Date of the
Servicemembers’ Civil Relief Act of 2003, as amended; and all parties to each Receivable had
full legal capacity to execute and deliver such Receivable and all other documents related
thereto and to grant the security interest purported to be granted thereby.
(vi) Obligors. Each Obligor is domiciled in the United States. None of the Obligors
is an Affiliate of Bay View Acceptance or is employed by Bay View Acceptance. None of the
Obligors is the United States of America or any State or any agency, department, subdivision
or instrumentality thereof. No Receivable has been included in a “fleet” sale (i.e., a sale
to any single Obligor of more than five (5) Financed Vehicles).
(vii) Obligor Bankruptcy. As of the related Cutoff Date, no Obligor has been
identified on the Depositor’s records as being the subject of a current bankruptcy
proceeding as a debtor, except for Obligors under Chapter 13 Receivables.
(viii) Schedule of Receivables. The information pertaining to each Receivable set
forth in the Schedule of Receivables was true and correct in all material respects as of the
close of business on the related Cutoff Date and at the Closing Date or the related Funding
Date, as applicable.
(ix) Marked Records. By the Closing Date or the related Funding Date, as applicable,
each of the Contributor and the Depositor will have caused the portions of its records
relating to the Receivables to be clearly and unambiguously marked to show that the
Receivables constitute part of the Trust Estate and are owned by the Issuer and pledged to
the Indenture Trustee.
(x) Computer Tape or Listing. The computer tape made available by the Contributor to
the Backup Servicer on the Closing Date or the related Funding Date was complete and
accurate as of the related Cutoff Date and includes a description of the same Receivables
that are described in the related Schedule of Receivables.
(xi) Chattel Paper. The Receivables constitute chattel paper within the meaning of the
UCC.
10
(xii) One Original. There is only one original executed copy of each Receivable.
(xiii) Custodian Files Complete. There exists a Custodian File pertaining to each
Receivable, and such Custodian File contains: (A) a fully executed original of the related
retail installment contract, and an acknowledgment of the Custodian that it holds such
Receivable for the benefit of the Noteholders, (B) evidence of either (1) a certificate of
insurance, (2) an application form for insurance signed by the Obligor, or (3) a signed
representation letter from the Obligor named in the Receivable pursuant to which the Obligor
has agreed to obtain physical damage insurance for the related Financed Vehicle, (C) the
original or electronic equivalent of the Certificate of Title or, with respect to a
Certificate of Title filed electronically, a report prepared by a third party service that
shows such service maintains perfection related to such Certificate of Title on behalf of
the Servicer; or, if the Certificate of Title has not yet been received, and in the case of
each electronic Certificate of Title, an application therefor, or a copy of such Certificate
of Title with a copy of the application filed to amend the Certificate of Title to indicate
the security interest of the Contributor in the related Financed Vehicle, (D) an electronic
or hard copy of an original credit application signed by the Obligor, (E) the originals of
all written assumption, consolidation, extension, modification or waiver agreements, if any,
relating to such Receivable except for any such item listed above which has been preserved
by electronic means, (F) any other documents that the Servicer shall keep on file, in
accordance with its customary procedures, or reasonably required by the Issuer, from time to
time to be kept on file, relating to a Receivable, the related Obligor or the related
Financed Vehicle, and (G) any additional original loan documents evidencing any assumption,
consolidation, extension, modification or waiver of a Receivable approved by the Servicer.
Each of such documents which is required to be signed by the Obligor has been signed by the
Obligor in the appropriate spaces. All blanks on any form have been properly filled in and
each form has otherwise been correctly prepared in all material respects. The complete
Custodian File for each Receivable is currently in the possession of the Custodian.
(xiv) Receivables in Force. No Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated or
rescinded, and the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable has not been released from
the Lien of the related Receivable in whole or in part. No provisions of any Receivable
have been waived, altered or modified in any respect since its origination, except by
instruments or documents identified in the Custodian File held by the Custodian and in
accordance with the Collection Policy in all material respects. Any modification to any
Receivable necessary to comply with the Servicemembers’ Civil Relief Act of 2003, as
amended, has been made in compliance with the Act and any laws related thereto.
(xv) Lawful Assignment. No Receivable was originated in, or is subject to the laws of
any jurisdiction, the laws of which would make unlawful, void or voidable the sale, transfer
and assignment of such Receivable under this Agreement, the Contribution Agreement or the
Indenture. The Depositor has not entered into any agreement with any account debtor that
prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of any portion of the Receivables. Each
Receivable, by its terms, is assignable.
11
(xvi) Good Title. No Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the
Depositor to any Person other than the Issuer. Immediately prior to the conveyance of the
Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, the Depositor was the sole owner
thereof and had good and indefeasible title thereto, free of any Lien and, upon execution
and delivery of this Agreement and the applicable Depositor Assignment by the Depositor, the
Issuer shall have good and indefeasible title to and will be the sole owner of such
Receivables, free of any Lien. No Dealer has a participation in, or other right to receive,
proceeds of any Receivable. The Depositor has not taken any action to convey any right to
any Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments received under the
related Insurance Policies or the related Dealer Agreements or to payments due under such
Receivables. Each Initial Receivable has been validly assigned by the Depositor to the
Issuer on the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement and each Subsequent Receivable will be
validly assigned to the Issuer on the related Funding Date pursuant to this Agreement and
the related Depositor Assignment.
(xvii) Security Interest in Financed Vehicle. Each Receivable from each respective
Obligor is secured by a valid, binding and enforceable first priority perfected security
interest in favor of the Contributor in the Financed Vehicle. The Certificate of Title for
each Financed Vehicle shows or, if a new or replacement Certificate of Title is being
applied for with respect to such Financed Vehicle, the Certificate of Title will be received
within one hundred eighty (180) days of the Closing Date or the related Funding Date, as
applicable, and will show, the Contributor named as the original secured party under each
Receivable as the holder of a first priority perfected security interest in such Financed
Vehicle. With respect to each Receivable for which the Certificate of Title has not yet
been returned from the applicable governmental authority, the Servicer has received written
evidence from the related Dealer that such Certificate of Title showing the Contributor as
first lienholder has been applied for. If the Receivable was originated in a State in which
the filing or recording of a financing statement under the UCC is required to perfect a
security interest in motor vehicles, such filings or recordings have been duly made and show
the Contributor named as the original secured party under the related Receivable. As of the
related Cutoff Date, there were no Liens or claims for taxes, work, labor, storage or
materials affecting a Financed Vehicle which are or may be Liens prior or equal to the lien
of the related Receivable. Each security interest in the Financed Vehicles has been or,
with respect to Subsequent Receivables, will be as of the related Funding Date, validly
assigned by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the related Depositor
Assignment. Immediately after the sale, assignment and transfer thereof to the Issuer,
although the related Certificates of Title will not indicate the Issuer as secured party,
each Receivable will be secured by an enforceable and perfected first priority security
interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor of the Indenture Trustee as secured party for the
benefit of the Noteholders, the Agent and the Financial Institutions which security interest
is prior to all other Liens in such Financed Vehicle.
(xviii) All Filings Made. On the Closing Date or the related Funding Date, as
applicable, all filings (including, without limitation, UCC filings) required to be made by
any Person and actions required to be taken or performed by any Person in any jurisdiction
(A) to give the Issuer a first priority perfected ownership interest in, and (B)
12
to give the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected Lien on, the Initial
Receivables and the Subsequent Receivables, respectively, and the proceeds thereof and the
rest of the Trust Estate (other than the Financed Vehicles) have been made, taken or
performed or will be made, taken or performed on or prior to the Closing Date or the related
Funding Date, as applicable, and as of the Closing Date or the related Funding Date, as
applicable, the Issuer has or will have, as applicable, such a first priority perfected
ownership interest and the Indenture Trustee has or will have, as applicable, such a first
priority perfected Lien.
(xix) No Impairment. The Depositor has not done anything to convey any right to any
Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments due under the Receivables
or otherwise to impair the rights of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Agent or the
Noteholders in any Receivable or the proceeds thereof.
(xx) Receivable Not Assumable. No Receivable is assumable by another Person in a
manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor’s obligations to the
Depositor with respect to such Receivable.
(xxi) No Defenses. No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff,
counterclaim or defense and no such right has been asserted or threatened with respect to
any Receivable. The operation of the terms of any Receivable or the exercise of any right
thereunder will not render such Receivable unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to
any such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense.
(xxii) No Default. There has been no uncured default, breach, violation or event
permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable (other than payment delinquencies
of not more than sixty (60) days as of the Initial Cutoff Date or the related Funding Date,
as applicable, or payment delinquencies of sixty (60) days or more that have been cured on
or prior to the Closing Date or related Funding Date, as applicable), and no condition
exists or event has occurred and is continuing that with notice, the lapse of time or both
would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the
terms of any Receivable, and there has been no waiver of any of the foregoing. As of the
related Cutoff Date, no Financed Vehicle had been repossessed from the related Obligor or
repossessed by the Servicer from any other Person.
(xxiii) Insurance. At the time of the origination of each Receivable with a Receivable
Balance of $50,000 or greater, the related Financed Vehicle was covered by a comprehensive
and collision Insurance Policy (A) in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (a) its
maximum insurable value or (b) the principal amount due from the Obligor under the related
Receivable, (B) naming the Contributor and its successors and assigns as loss payee and (C)
insuring against loss and damage due to fire, theft, transportation, collision and other
risks generally covered by comprehensive and collision coverage. Each Receivable that
finances the cost of premiums for gap, credit life and credit accident and health insurance
is covered by such an Insurance Policy. The Financed Vehicle relating to each Receivable
that finances the cost of an extended service contract is covered by such a service
contract. Each Receivable requires the Obligor to maintain physical loss and damage
insurance, naming the Contributor and its successors and
13
assigns as additional insured parties, and each Receivable permits the holder thereof
to obtain physical loss and damage insurance at the expense of the Obligor if the Obligor
fails to do so.
(xxiv) Receivables. (A) Each Receivable had an original maturity of not less than
eighteen (18) and not more than ninety-seven (97) months; (B) each Receivable has an Annual
Percentage Rate (exclusive of prepaid finance charges) of at least 4%; (C) no Receivable was
a Defaulted Receivable or a Delinquent Receivable as of the Cutoff Date; (D) no funds have
been advanced by the Depositor, the Contributor, the Servicer, the Issuer, any Dealer, or
anyone acting on behalf of any of them in order to cause any Receivable to qualify under
subclause (B) of this clause (xxiv); (E) none of the Receivables have been re-aged (except
for Receivables extended in compliance with Section 7.01(c)); (F) the Receivable
Balance of each Receivable set forth in the Schedule of Receivables is true and accurate in
all material respects as of the related Cutoff Date; (G) no more than five percent (5%) of
the Aggregate Receivable Balance may be Receivables with individual principal balances in
excess of $100,000.00 (after giving effect to acquisitions on such Funding Date); and (H)
the application with respect to the Certificate of Title for each Receivable has been
applied for.
(xxv) Subsequent Receivables. The addition of Subsequent Receivables on any Funding
Date shall not occur unless each of the funding conditions set forth in Section 2.12
of the Indenture have been satisfied and unless each of the following representations and
warranties are true and correct on the related Cutoff Date (with each Receivable Balance or
APR for any Receivable measured as of its related Cutoff Date):

each such Receivable contains provisions that give the obligee substantially the same
benefits as provided in one of the form contracts attached as Exhibit B hereto,
except for such immaterial modifications or deviations from such form contracts which appear
in certain Receivables or which may appear in the future form contracts of the Contributor
or which the Depositor acquires from the Contributor; any such modifications or deviations

advanced to or on behalf of each Obligor, and there are no requirements for future advances
thereunder. The Obligor with respect to each Receivable does not have any option under such
Receivable to borrow from the Depositor or any Affiliate additional funds secured by the
Financed Vehicle.
(xxxi) Prior Servicing. The servicing of each Receivable and the collection practices
relating thereto have been lawful and in accordance with the standards set forth in the
Collection Policy; other than the Servicer and any back up servicer arrangement that has

the Transaction Documents.

its respective property, at a fair valuation;
(B) be engaged in or about to engage in, business or a transaction for
which any property remaining with the Depositor will be an unreasonably
small capital or the remaining assets of the Depositor will be unreasonably
small in relation to its respective business or the transaction; and
(C) have intended to incur or believed it would incur, debts that would
be beyond its respective ability to pay as such debts mature or become due.
The Depositor’s assets and cash flow enable it to meet its present
obligations in the ordinary course of business as they become due.
(iv) Both immediately before and after the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents (a) the present fair salable value of the Depositor’s assets
was or will be in excess of the amount that will be required to pay its probable
liabilities as they then exist and as they become absolute and matured; and (b) the
sum of the Depositor’s assets was or will be greater than the sum of its debts,
valuing its assets at a fair salable value.
(v) There are no proceedings or investigations pending, or to the knowledge of
the Depositor, threatened, against or affecting the Depositor in or before any
court, governmental authority or agency or arbitration board or tribunal (including,
but not limited to any such proceeding or investigation with respect to any
environmental or other liability resulting from the ownership of the Receivables)
which, individually or in the aggregate, involve the possibility of materially and
adversely affecting the properties, business, prospects, profits or condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Depositor, or the ability of the Depositor to
perform its obligations under this Agreement. The Depositor is not in default with
respect to any order of any court, governmental authority or agency or arbitration
board or tribunal.
(k) Taxes. All tax returns or extensions required to be filed by the Depositor in any
jurisdiction (other than jurisdictions in which the failure to file would not have a
material adverse effect on the Depositor, the Depositor’s ability to perform its obligations
under the Transaction Documents, the Issuer, any Noteholder or any Receivable or any other
part of the Trust Estate) have in fact been filed, and all taxes, assessments, fees and
other governmental charges upon the Depositor, or upon any of the properties, income or
franchises shown to be due and payable on such returns have been, or will be, paid or are
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings with respect to which the Agent has
received written notice. To the knowledge of the Depositor, all such tax returns are true

19
assessment against it in any material amount nor of any basis therefor. The provisions
for taxes on the books of the Depositor are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

and the Deposited Assets are owned by the Issuer as of the Closing Date or the related

Receivables and the Deposited Assets are not part of the Depositor’s estate in the event of
the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor under any bankruptcy law.
(n) Notes as Debt. For federal, State and local income tax purposes, each of the
Contributor and the Depositor, its shareholders and stockholders and the Issuer shall treat
the Receivables and the Deposited Assets as owned by the Issuer, shall include in the
computation of the Depositor’s gross income for such purposes the income from the
Receivables and the Deposited Assets, shall treat the Notes as debt of the Depositor and its
consolidated subsidiaries for such purposes, and shall cause the Contributor and its
consolidated subsidiaries to deduct the interest paid or accrued with respect to the Notes
in accordance with its applicable method of accounting for such purposes.
(o) ERISA. The Depositor is in compliance with the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974, as amended.
(p) Certificates, Statements and Reports. The officers’ certificates, statements,
reports and other documents prepared by the Depositor and furnished by the Depositor to the
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document to which the Depositor is a party, and in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, when taken as a whole, do not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained herein or therein not misleading.
(q) Stock of Depositor. The Contributor is the registered owner of all of the shares
of common stock of the Depositor, all of which are fully paid and nonassessable and owned of
record, free and clear of all mortgages, assignments, pledges, security interests, warrants,

purposes of or in connection with any of the Transaction Documents or any transaction
contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by the
Depositor will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information
is stated or certified and does not and will not contain any material
20
misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the

of the Receivables.
(t) Compliance with Laws. The Depositor has complied in all respects with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or
awards to which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Issuer, any Noteholder, any
Receivable or other part of the Trust Estate.
Section 3.03. Repurchase of Receivables. (a) The Depositor hereby covenants and agrees to
deliver to the Issuer, the Contributor, the Servicer, the Agent and the Indenture Trustee prompt

Receivable transferred hereunder. Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, the Agent or the Servicer of (a) a Nonconforming Receivable, or (b) the failure to deliver
any document required to be included in any Custodian File or file any UCC Financing Statement
required to be filed pursuant to the Transaction Documents, the party discovering such breach or
failure to deliver shall give prompt written notice to each of the other foregoing parties. Except
as specifically provided in this Agreement or the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee has no
obligation to review or monitor the Receivables or the Deposited Assets for compliance with the
representations and warranties or delivery requirements set forth herein. If (i) the breach of
representations or warranties causing such Receivable to be a Nonconforming Receivable has a
material adverse effect on such Receivable or its collectibility or the Noteholders and shall not
have been (A) cured within thirty (30) days following notice thereof or (B) waived by the Majority
Holders following notice thereof or (ii) the failure to deliver to the Custodian such Custodian
File documents or UCC Financing Statements shall not have been cured within the time period
required herein (other than the Certificates of Titles, with respect to which the Contributor shall
have three (3) Business Days after the one hundred eighty (180) day period set forth in Section
3.02(a)(xvii)), the Depositor shall deposit or cause to be deposited the Repurchase Price with
respect to such Receivable in the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following the
applicable cure period, if any; provided, that a breach of a representation and warranty set forth
in paragraphs (ii), (iii), (v), (vii), (ix), (xiv), (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii), (xix), (xx),
(xxi), (xxii), (xxviii), (xxx) and (xxxii) of Section 3.02(a) automatically shall be deemed
to have a material adverse effect on the applicable Receivable or the Noteholders. The Issuer
shall transfer to the Depositor the Receivable (and the Deposited Assets relating solely to such
Receivable) affected by such breach or failure to deliver; provided, that such transfer and
assignment shall only be made upon receipt by the Issuer of notice from the Servicer that the
Repurchase Price has been remitted to the Servicer and deposited into the Collection Account. The
Issuer shall be entitled to enforce the obligations of the Depositor, the Contributor and each
applicable Dealer under this Agreement, the Contribution Agreement and the applicable Dealer
Agreement, respectively, to remit the Repurchase Price to the Servicer for
21
deposit into the Collection Account. The Indenture Trustee and the Agent are authorized to
take action on behalf of the Issuer (i) to enforce the obligations of the Depositor to repurchase
such Receivable under this Agreement, (ii) to enforce the obligations of the Contributor to
repurchase such Receivable under the Contribution Agreement and (iii) to enforce the obligation of
a Dealer to repurchase such Receivable under the applicable Dealer Agreement.

(and the Deposited Assets relating solely to such Receivable) and to remit the Repurchase Price
with respect to a Nonconforming Receivable which has a material adverse affect on the Noteholders
or on such Receivable or its collectibility or as to which a failure to deliver has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy, except for the indemnification provisions expressly
set forth in the Indenture, this Agreement and the Contribution Agreement, against the Depositor,
the Contributor and the Issuer for such breach or failure to deliver, available to the Indenture
Trustee or the Noteholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositor shall indemnify the Owner Trustee (as such and in
its individual capacity), the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Agent, the
Noteholders and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents against all costs,
expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by any of them, as a result of third-party
claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to a repurchase event set forth in
Section 3.03(a).
Section 3.04. Issuer’s Assignment of Repurchased Receivables. With respect to any Receivable
reacquired by the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement, the Issuer shall assign, without recourse,
representation or warranty, to the Depositor all the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to
such Receivable, and all security and documents relating thereto.
Section 3.05. Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement are made as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall
survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the related Receivables and the other related
Deposited Assets hereunder and under the related Depositor Assignment, as applicable, to the
Issuer, and the pledge thereof by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. The
Depositor and the Issuer agree that the Issuer will assign to the Indenture Trustee all of the
Issuer’s rights under this Agreement and each Depositor Assignment and that the Indenture Trustee
shall thereafter be entitled to enforce this Agreement and each Depositor Assignment directly
against the Depositor in the Indenture Trustee’s own name on behalf of the Noteholders;
provided, however, that the representations and warranties of the Depositor in this
Agreement shall not be construed as a warranty or guaranty by the Depositor as to the future
payments by any Obligor.

and any other necessary documents covering the right, title and interest of the Issuer in and to
the Receivables and the related Deposited Assets to be promptly filed, and at all times to be kept
recorded, registered and filed, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law to
fully preserve and protect the right, title and interest of the Issuer hereunder and the Indenture
Trustee under the Indenture to the Receivables and the other property of the Trust Estate. The
Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to or at the direction of the Issuer (with copies
to the Agent), file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document recorded, registered or
filed as provided above, as soon as available following such recordation, registration or filing.
The Issuer shall cooperate fully with the Depositor in connection with the obligations set forth

Section 5.01(a). In the event the Depositor fails to perform its obligations under this
subsection, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may do so at the expense of the Depositor.
(b) Name and Other Changes. At least thirty (30) days prior to the Depositor making any
change in its name, identity, jurisdiction of organization or structure which would make any
financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with paragraph (a) above
25
seriously misleading within the applicable provisions of the UCC or any title statute, the
Depositor shall give the Issuer, the Agent and the Indenture Trustee written notice of any such
change, and, no later than five (5) days after the effective date thereof, the Depositor shall file
such financing statements or amendments as may be necessary to continue the perfection of the

more than one jurisdiction. The Depositor at all times shall be and remain a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Bay View Acceptance.
(c) Accounts and Records. The Depositor shall maintain accounts and records as to each
Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit the reader thereof to know at any time the
status of such Receivable, including payments and recoveries made and payments owing (and the
nature of each).
(d) Sale of Other Receivables. If at any time the Depositor shall propose to sell, grant a
security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in any automobile, van, sport utility
vehicle or light duty truck installment sale contracts (other than the Receivables) to any
prospective purchaser, lender, or other transferee, the Depositor shall give to such prospective
purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any
restored from backup archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable
or Financed Vehicle, shall indicate clearly that such Receivable or Financed Vehicle has been
transferred to the Issuer and pledged to the Indenture Trustee unless such Receivable has been paid
in full or repurchased.
(e) Access to Records. The Depositor shall, upon reasonable notice, permit the Issuer, the
Agent, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and their respective agents at any time during normal
business hours to inspect, audit, and make copies of and abstracts from the Depositor’s records
regarding any Receivable.
(f) Other Actions. The Depositor shall from time to time, at its expense, promptly execute
and deliver all further instruments and documents (including, without limitation, powers of
attorney for the benefit of the Servicer) and take all further action that may be necessary or
desirable to permit the Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, including,
without limitation the Servicer’s obligation to preserve and maintain the perfected security
interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables, the Financed Vehicles and the other Deposited
Assets.

not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer
to exist any Lien on, any interest, and the Depositor shall defend the right, title, and interest
of the Issuer in, to and under the Initial Receivables and Subsequent Receivables and
26
other Deposited Assets against all claims of third parties claiming through or under the

shall terminate upon the termination of the Indenture in accordance with its terms.

Section 5.04. Costs and Expenses. The Depositor agrees to pay all reasonable costs and
disbursements in connection with the perfection, as against all third parties, of the transfer to
the Issuer of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Receivables and the Deposited
Assets and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee.
Section 5.05. No Waiver. The Depositor shall not waive any default, breach, violation or
event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable; provided, however, nothing in this
Section 5.05 shall affect the rights of and the restrictions on the Servicer with respect
to such matters as set forth in this Agreement.
Section 5.06. Depositor’s Records. The books and records of the Depositor will disclose that
the Depositor transferred the Receivables to the Issuer; provided, however, the Depositor may show
the Receivables as assets of the consolidated companies that include the Contributor, the Depositor
and the Issuer as long as such financial statements indicate the transfers consummated hereunder,
under the Contribution Agreement, under each Contributor Assignment and Depositor Assignment and
under the Indenture and indicate that such assets will not be available to satisfy the claims of
any creditor of the Contributor or the Depositor. In the event that the Issuer shall be deemed a
separate taxable entity for federal income tax purposes, the Contributor will file or will cause to
be filed all tax returns and reports in a manner consistent with the transfer to the Issuer of the
Receivables for federal income tax purposes.
Section 5.07. Cooperation by Depositor. (a) The Depositor will cooperate fully and in a
timely manner with the Issuer, the Servicer, the Agent and the Indenture Trustee in connection with
(i) the filing of any claims with an insurer or any agent of any insurer under any Insurance Policy
affecting an Obligor or any of the Financed Vehicles; (ii) supplying any additional information as
may be requested by the Issuer, the Agent, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or any such agent or
insurer in connection with the processing of any such claim; and (iii) the execution or endorsement
of any check or draft made payable to the Depositor representing proceeds from any such claim. The
Depositor shall take all such actions as may be requested by the Issuer, the Servicer, the Agent or
the Indenture Trustee to protect the rights of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the
Noteholders in and to any proceeds under any and all of the foregoing insurance policies. The
Depositor shall not take or cause to be taken any action which would impair the rights of the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders in and to any proceeds under any of
the foregoing insurance policies.
(b) The Depositor shall, within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof, endorse any check or
draft payable to the Depositor representing insurance proceeds and in the event there are no other
payees on such check or draft, forward, via hand delivery, such endorsed check or
27
draft to the Servicer for deposit into the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is
acting as successor Servicer, for deposit into the Backup Servicer Account). The Depositor will
hold in trust and remit to the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as
successor Servicer, for deposit into the Backup Servicer Account), within one (1) Business Day of
receipt thereof, any funds received with respect to the Receivables after the related Cutoff Date.
Section 5.08. Notice of Breach. The Depositor shall notify in writing the Indenture Trustee,
the Noteholders, the Agent, and the Issuer promptly upon becoming aware of any breach of the
representations and warranties or covenants of the Depositor or the Issuer contained herein or in
any other Transaction Documents.
Section 5.09. Liability of Depositor; Indemnities. The Depositor shall be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Depositor
under this Agreement.
(i) The Depositor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee, the
Agent, the Noteholders, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee (as such and in
its individual capacity) and the Issuer from and against any taxes (other than income or
capital gains taxes related to the sale of the Notes) that may at any time be asserted
against the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer with respect to, as of the Closing Date (with
respect to the Initial Receivables) and as of the related Funding Date (with respect to the
Subsequent Receivables), the sale of the related Receivables to the Issuer or the issuance
and original sale of the Notes or asserted with respect to ownership of the Receivables,
including any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible personal property,
privilege, or license taxes and costs and expenses in defending against the same.
(ii) The Depositor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee,
the Agent, the Noteholders, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee (as such
and in its individual capacity) and the Issuer and their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents, from and against any loss, liability, or expense incurred by reason of
the Depositor’s bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of its duties
under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, or by reason
of reckless disregard of the Depositor’s obligations and duties under this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document to which it is a party, or the Depositor’s violation of federal
or State securities laws in connection with the initial sale of the Notes.
(iii) The Depositor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indenture Trustee,
the Agent, the Noteholders, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee (as such
and in its individual capacity) and the Issuer and their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents, from and against any loss, liability, or expense incurred as a result
of third party claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to a breach of the
covenants or representations and warranties of the Depositor set forth in Article V
hereof and Section 3.02 hereof.
28
Indemnification under this Section 5.09 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement (or, in the case of indemnification of the Indenture Trustee or the Backup Servicer,
shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee or Backup Servicer, respectively)
and shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of
litigation. If the Depositor shall have made any indemnity payment to the Indenture Trustee, the
Agent, the Noteholders, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee (as such or in its
individual capacity) or the Issuer pursuant to this Section and any such Person thereafter shall
collect any of such amounts from others, then such Person shall repay such amounts to the
Depositor, without interest. If the Depositor fails to indemnify any applicable Person pursuant to
this Section 5.09, then such Person shall notify the Contributor of such failure and the
Contributor shall pay the amount of such indemnification to the applicable Person within two (2)
Business Days of receipt of such notice.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the obligations of the
Depositor under this Section 5.09 are solely the corporate obligations of the Depositor,
and shall be payable by the Depositor, as provided in this Section 5.09. The Depositor
shall only be required to pay (a) any fees, expenses, indemnities or other liabilities that it may
incur under this Section 5.09 to the extent the Depositor has funds available that would be
in excess of amounts that would be necessary to pay the debt and other obligations of the Depositor
incurred in accordance with the Depositor’s certificate of incorporation and all financing
documents to which the Depositor is a party and (b) any expenses, indemnities or other liabilities
that it may incur under this Section 5.09 only to the extent it receives funds designated
for such purposes or to the extent it has funds available that would be in excess of amounts that
would be necessary to pay the debt and other obligations of the Depositor incurred in accordance
with the Depositor’s certificate of incorporation and all financing documents to which the
Depositor is a party. In addition, no amount owing by the Depositor hereunder in excess of the
liabilities that it is required to pay in accordance with the preceding sentence shall constitute a
“claim” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against it. No recourse shall be had
for the payment of any amount owing hereunder or for the payment of any fee hereunder or any other
obligation of, or claim against, the Depositor arising out of or based upon this Section
5.09, against any stockholder, employee, officer, agent, director or authorized person of the
Depositor or of any Affiliate thereof (other than with respect to any obligation of the Contributor
as set forth in the last sentence of the foregoing paragraph); provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not relieve any such Person or entity of any liability they might otherwise have as
a result of fraudulent actions or willful misconduct or omissions taken by them.
Section 5.10. Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Depositor.
Subject to Section 5.13 hereof, any Person (i) into which the Depositor may be merged or
consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger, conversion, or consolidation to which the Depositor

directly or indirectly of the Depositor, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an
agreement of assumption acceptable, in their respective absolute discretion, to each of the Agent
and the Indenture Trustee, to perform every obligation of the Depositor under this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents to which the Depositor is a party, will be the successor to the
Depositor under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any document or any further act
on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (a) immediately after
giving effect to such transaction, (1) no representation or warranty made
29
pursuant to Section 3.02(a) would have been breached (for purposes hereof, such
representations and warranties shall speak as of the date of the consummation of such transaction)
and (2) no event that, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Event of
Default, an Event of Default or a Termination Event, shall have occurred and be continuing, (b) the
Depositor shall have delivered to the Agent and the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, conversion, merger, or succession and

conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been
complied with, (c) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Agent and the Indenture Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel either (1) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing
statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are
necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest of the Issuer and the Noteholders in the
Receivables, and reciting the details of such filings, or (2) stating that, in the opinion of such
counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest, and (d) the
organizational documents of the Person surviving or resulting from such transaction shall contain
provisions the same in substantive effect as those of the Depositor’s articles of incorporation in
respect of the issuance of debt, the independent director and bankruptcy remoteness. The Depositor
shall provide written notice of any merger, consolidation, conversion, or succession pursuant to
this Section and Section 5.13(iii) to the Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the execution of the foregoing agreement of assumption and compliance with clauses (a)
through (e) above shall be conditions to the consummation of the transactions referred to in
clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above.
Section 5.11. Limitation on Liability of Contributor, Depositor and Others. Each of the
Contributor and the Depositor and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Depositor or
the Contributor may rely in good faith on the written advice of counsel, Opinion of Counsel,
Officer’s Certificate, or on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted
by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. Neither the Contributor nor the Depositor
shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute, or defend any legal action that shall not be
incidental to its obligations under this Agreement and that in its opinion may involve it in any
expense or liability; provided, however, that the Contributor or the Depositor, as the case may be,
may undertake any reasonable action that it may in good xxxxx xxxx necessary or desirable in
respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement and the
interests of the Noteholders under this Agreement. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs, and liabilities of the
Contributor or the Depositor, as the case may be.
Section 5.12. Contributor and Depositor May Own Notes. The Contributor or the Depositor and
any Person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Contributor or the
Depositor may in their individual or any other capacities become the owner or pledgee of Notes with
the same rights as it would have if it were not the Contributor or the Depositor or an Affiliate
thereof, except as otherwise specifically provided herein. Notes so owned by or pledged to the
Contributor and the Depositor or such controlling, controlled or commonly controlled Person shall
have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement, without preference,
priority or distinction as among all of the Notes, as the case may be.
30
Section 5.13. Additional Covenants of the Depositor. The Depositor shall not do any of the
following, without (a) the prior written consent of the Majority Holders, and (b) the prior written
consent of the Indenture Trustee, who shall, without any exercise of its own discretion, also
provide its written consent to the Depositor upon receipt by it of a copy of the written consent of
the Majority Holders:

Article VI
Administration and Servicing of Receivables
Section 6.01. Appointment and Duties of the Servicer.
(a) The Issuer hereby appoints Bay View Acceptance as the Servicer for an initial term
commencing on the Closing Date, which term shall be automatically extended for successive 364-day
terms, until the Notes are paid in full, unless the Agent, in its sole discretion, delivers a
Servicer Termination Notice as set forth below. The Servicer hereby agrees that, as of the date
hereof, the Servicer shall become bound, for the initial term beginning on the Closing Date and for
the duration of each successive term to continue as the Servicer subject to and in accordance with
the other provisions of this Agreement. At any time during the initial term or any subsequent
term, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, deliver to the Servicer a written notice (a
“Servicer Termination Notice”) providing that the then current Servicer’s duties as
Servicer shall terminate at the end of the then current term.
(b) The Backup Servicer, if not then acting as successor Servicer, may be terminated as Backup
Servicer at any time, with or without cause and without payment of the Backup Servicer Termination
Fee. If the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, (i) the Backup
31
Servicer may be terminated pursuant to the terms of Section 10.02, or (ii) the Agent
may terminate the term of the Backup Servicer at any time for any reason, subject to the payment of
the Backup Servicer Termination Fee, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Backup Servicer.
The Agent may terminate the term of the Backup Servicer upon five (5) days’ written notice, and the
Backup Servicer shall not be entitled to the Backup Servicer Termination Fee, if the Agent has
determined in its reasonable credit judgment that the Backup Servicer has engaged in willful
misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder.
(c) The Servicer shall service, administer and make collections on the Receivables, and
perform the other actions required of the Servicer under this Agreement. The Servicer agrees that
its servicing of the Receivables shall be carried out in accordance with its customary and usual
collection procedures. The Servicer’s duties shall include, without limitation, collection and
posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on the Receivables, investigating
delinquencies, sending monthly statements to Obligors, reporting any required tax information to
Obligors, policing and foreclosing on the collateral (including the Financed Vehicles), accounting
for collections and furnishing the Weekly Servicer Report, the Monthly Servicer Report, the
Pre-Funding Servicer Report and annual statements to the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and
the Agent with respect to distributions, and performing the other duties specified herein (it being
understood that if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, it shall not be required to
issue Weekly Servicer Reports). The Servicer shall also administer and enforce all rights and
responsibilities of the holder of the Receivables provided for in the Dealer Agreements and the
Insurance Policies, to the extent that such Dealer Agreements and Insurance Policies relate to the
Receivables, the Financed Vehicles or the Obligors (it being understood that if the Backup Servicer
is acting as successor Servicer, it shall have no duty to enforce such Dealer Agreements). To the
extent consistent with the standards, policies and procedures otherwise required hereby, the
Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, and procedures and shall have full power
and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing,
administration and collection that it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Indenture
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Noteholders and the
Indenture Trustee, 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
with respect to the Financed Vehicles; provided however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Servicer shall not, except pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, release an
Obligor from payment of any unpaid amount under any Receivable or waive the right to collect the
unpaid balance of any Receivable from the Obligor, except that the Servicer may forego collection
efforts if the amount subject to collection is Supplemental Servicing Fees or any other fees that
are property of the Servicer or are otherwise de minimis (i.e., less than twenty dollars ($20)) or
if it would forego collection in accordance with its customary procedures. The Servicer is hereby
authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the
Trust, a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable pursuant to Section 6.02 or to commence
or participate in any other legal proceeding (including, without limitation, a bankruptcy
proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, an Obligor or a Financed Vehicle. If the
Servicer commences or participates in such a legal proceeding in its own name, the Indenture
Trustee shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned such Receivable to the Servicer
solely for purposes of commencing or participating in any such proceeding as a party or claimant,
and the Servicer is authorized and
32
empowered by the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, 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. The Indenture
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall furnish, at the Servicer’s expense, the Servicer with any
powers of attorney and other documents which the Servicer may reasonably request in writing and
which the Servicer deems necessary or appropriate and take any other steps which the Servicer may
deem necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative
duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that if the Backup Servicer is the successor
Servicer, it shall be reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement of the Receivables and shall not be responsible for expenses incurred in connection
with such powers of attorney necessary to satisfy its administrative and servicing duties
hereunder. The Servicer shall furnish to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, and the Agent
from time to time such additional information regarding the Backup Servicer, the Issuer or the
Transaction Documents as the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Agent
shall reasonably request.
Section 6.02. Realization upon Receivables. (a) On behalf of the Noteholders and the Issuer
and consistent in all material respects with the standards, policies and procedures required by the
Collection Policy, the Servicer shall repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of)
and liquidate any Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable with respect to which the Servicer has
determined that payments thereunder are not likely to be resumed, as soon as is practicable after
default on such Receivable but in no event later than the date on which ten percent (10%) or more
of a Scheduled Obligor Payment remains unpaid for one hundred eighty (180) or more days from the
date on which it is due and payable. The Servicer is authorized to follow such customary practices
and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable, consistent with the standard of care
required by Section 6.01, which practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to
realize upon any recourse to the Dealers (it being understood that if the Backup Servicer is acting
as successor Servicer, it shall have no duty to enforce such remedy), selling the related Financed
Vehicle at public or private sale, the submission of claims under an Insurance Policy and other
actions by the Servicer in order to realize upon such a Receivable. The foregoing is subject to
the provision that, in any case in which the Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the
Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any repair or towards the repossession of such
Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its discretion that there is a reasonable likelihood
that such repair and/or repossession shall increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related
Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. All amounts received upon
liquidation of a Financed Vehicle shall be remitted directly by the Servicer to the Local Bank
Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, for deposit into the Backup
Servicer Account) as soon as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after
receipt thereof. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all reasonable expenses incurred by it
in the course of repossessing and liquidating a Financed Vehicle, but only out of the cash proceeds
of such Financed Vehicle, any deficiency obtained from the Obligor or any amounts received from the
related Dealer, which amounts may be retained by the Servicer (and shall not be required to be
deposited into the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer,
into the Backup Servicer Account)) to the extent of such expenses. The Servicer shall recover such
reasonable expenses based on the information contained in the Monthly Servicer Report delivered on
the related Determination Date. The Servicer shall pay on behalf of the Issuer any personal
property taxes
33
assessed on repossessed Financed Vehicles; the Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement of any such tax from Recoveries with respect to such Receivable.
(b) If the Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Dealer Agreement, the
act of commencement shall be deemed to be an automatic assignment from the Indenture Trustee to the
Servicer of the rights under such Dealer Agreement for purposes of collection only. If, however,
in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding, it is held that the Servicer may not enforce a Dealer
Agreement on the grounds that it is not a real party in interest or a Person entitled to enforce
the Dealer Agreement, the Indenture Trustee, at the Servicer’s expense, or the Issuer, at the
Issuer’s expense, shall take such steps as the Servicer deems reasonably necessary to enforce the
Dealer Agreement, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Issuer, the Depositor, the
Contributor or the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. All amounts recovered
(less the expenses of such enforcement) shall be remitted directly by the Servicer to the Local
Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, to the Backup Servicer
Account) as soon as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt
thereof.
Section 6.03. Insurance. (a) The Servicer shall monitor the status of each Insurance Policy
in accordance with its customary servicing procedures (it being understood that if the Backup
Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, it shall have no duty to monitor the status of any
Insurance Policy). If the Servicer shall determine that an Obligor has failed to obtain or
maintain a physical loss and damage Insurance Policy covering the related Financed Vehicle which
satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 3.02(a) of the Contribution Agreement and
Section 3.02(a) of this Agreement (including during the repossession of such Financed
Vehicle), the Servicer may, but shall not be required to, in accordance with its customary
practice, enforce the rights of the holder of the Receivable thereunder to require the Obligor to
obtain such physical loss and damage insurance.
(b) To the extent applicable, the Servicer shall not take any action which would result in
noncoverage under any of the Insurance Policies referred to in Section 6.03(a) which, but
for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Servicer, on behalf of
the Indenture Trustee, shall take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery
under any of the foregoing Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any of
the foregoing Insurance Policies shall be deposited into the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup
Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, to the Backup Servicer Account) within two (2) Business
Days of receipt.
(c) The Servicer may xxx to enforce or collect upon the Insurance Policies, in its own name,
if possible, or as agent of the Issuer and Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Trust. If the
Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding to enforce an Insurance Policy, the act of
commencement shall be deemed to be an automatic assignment of the rights of the Issuer and
Indenture Trustee under such Insurance Policy to the Servicer for purposes of collection only. If,
however, in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce
an Insurance Policy on the grounds that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to
enforce the Insurance Policy, the Indenture Trustee, at the Servicer’s expense, or the Contributor,
at the Contributor’s expense, shall take such steps as the Servicer deems reasonably necessary to
34
enforce such Insurance Policy, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Indenture
Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders.
Section 6.04. Maintenance of Security Interests in Vehicles. (a) Consistent with the policies
and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall take such steps as are necessary to
maintain perfection of the security interest created in the name of the Contributor by each
Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, including but not
limited to obtaining the execution by the Obligors and the recording, registering, filing,
re-recording, re-filing, and re-registering of all security agreements, financing statements and
continuation statements as are necessary to maintain the security interest granted by the Obligors
under the respective Receivables. The Indenture Trustee hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the
Servicer agrees, to take any and all steps necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf
of the Indenture Trustee as necessary because of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any
other reason. In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to the Indenture Trustee is
insufficient without a notation on the related Financed Vehicle’s Certificate of Title, or without
fulfilling any additional administrative requirements under the laws of the State in which the
Financed Vehicle is located, to perfect a security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in
favor of the Indenture Trustee, the parties hereto agree that the Contributor’s designation as the
secured party on the Certificate of Title is, with respect to each secured party, as applicable, in
its capacity as agent of the Indenture Trustee. The Servicer shall provide copies of all such
filings to the Indenture Trustee, the Agent and the Custodian. If the Backup Servicer is acting as
successor Servicer, it shall be reimbursed pursuant to Section 5.03(b) of the Indenture for
any costs incurred by it in performing its duties pursuant to this Section 6.04.
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, Servicer Event of Default or Event of Default,
the Servicer (if the Servicer is Bay View Acceptance or a successor to the business of Bay View
Acceptance) (the “Original Servicer”), at the written direction of the Majority Holders, shall take
or cause to be taken such action as may, in the judgment of the Majority Holders, be necessary or
desirable to perfect or re-perfect the security interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the
Receivables in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer and the Noteholders by
amending the title documents of such Financed Vehicles or by such other reasonable means as may be
necessary or prudent, and shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee any Custodian File or portion
thereof that has been released by the Indenture Trustee to the Servicer and is then in the
possession of the Servicer, including any original Certificates of Title. The Servicer shall, and
if the Servicer has been removed or otherwise fails to, the Contributor shall pay or reimburse all
costs and expenses related to such perfection or re-perfection (the “Reliening Expenses”) on
demand. If the Servicer is the Backup Servicer or any other Person acting in the capacity of
successor Servicer, upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, Servicer Event of Default or Event
of Default, such successor Servicer at the written direction of the Majority Holders shall take or
cause to be taken such action as may, in the opinion of counsel to the Agent, which opinion shall
be an expense of the Majority Holders (but shall be reimbursable to the Majority Holders in
accordance with the Indenture), be necessary or desirable to perfect or re-perfect the security
interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables in the name of the Indenture Trustee on
behalf of the Issuer and the Noteholders by amending the title documents of such Financed Vehicles
or by such other reasonable means as may, as set forth in such opinion of counsel to the Agent, be
necessary or prudent and shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee any Custodian File or portion
thereof that has been released by
35
the Indenture Trustee to the Servicer and is then in the
possession of the Servicer, including any original Certificates of Title. The Original Servicer
shall pay or reimburse all Reliening Expenses on demand. If such successor Servicer is the Backup
Servicer, such successor Servicer may, if it so chooses, attempt to employ a third party to perform
the perfection and re-perfection duties under this Section 6.04(b) either prior to, or
after the occurrence of, a Termination Event, Servicer Event of Default or Event of Default and, if
after making reasonable efforts to employ such a third party such successor Servicer is unable to
enter into an agreement with such a third party to perform such duties, the Agent shall identify
and employ a third party to perform the perfection and re-perfection duties under this Section
6.04(b) and such successor Servicer shall only be required to provide such reasonable
cooperation and assistance to such third party as may be necessary in connection with the
perfection and re-perfection duties under this Section 6.04(b). In any case, such
successor Servicer shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
financial liability in the performance, or cooperating and assisting in the performance, of any of
the duties under this Section 6.04(b) if the repayment of such funds or adequate written
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it prior to the expenditure
or risk of such funds or incurrence of financial liability. In addition, prior to the occurrence
of a Termination Event, Servicer Event of Default or Event of Default, the Agent may instruct the
Servicer to take or cause to be taken such action, and instruct the Indenture Trustee to use its
best efforts to cooperate and assist the Servicer with any such action, as may, in the judgment of
the Majority Holders or the Agent, be reasonably necessary to perfect or re-perfect the security
interest in the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables in the name of the Indenture Trustee on
behalf of the Issuer and the Noteholders, including by amending the Certificates of Title related
to such Financed Vehicles to reflect the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in the related
Financed Vehicle or by such other reasonable means as may be necessary or prudent.
The Servicer hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Indenture Trustee acting through its
duly appointed officers or any of them, its true and lawful attorney, for it and in its name and on
its behalf, for the sole and exclusive purpose of authorizing said attorney to execute and deliver
as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or
accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to show the Indenture Trustee as
lienholder or secured party on the Certificate of Title relating to a Financed Vehicle.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation
to file or prepare financing statements or continuation statements, or to take any action or to
execute any further documents or instruments in order to create, preserve or perfect the security
interest granter hereunder, such obligations being solely the obligations of the Servicer.
Section 6.05. Servicing Fee; Payment of Certain Expenses by Servicer. On each Payment Date,
the Servicer shall be entitled to receive out of the Collection Account the Servicing Fee and any
late fees, prepayment charges, including any administration fees or similar charges owed by an
Obligor under a Receivable, for the related Collection Period pursuant to Section 5.03(b)
of the Indenture. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection
with its activities under this Agreement (including taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses
incurred in connection with distributions and reports to Noteholders). The Servicer shall be
liable for the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants.
36

(a) No later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day prior to any proposed Funding

Issuer a Weekly Servicer Report for the preceding week executed by a Responsible Officer of the
Servicer containing, among other things, (i) all information necessary whether the conditions for a
Subsequent Transfer on the next Funding Date will be satisfied, and (ii) a certification that all
Receivables are Eligible Receivables, that the Collateral Test Amount is not less than zero (0),
that the Issuer is in compliance with Section 3.15 of the Indenture, and whether any

(b) No later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Agent and the Issuer a Monthly Servicer
Report for the related Collection Period executed by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer
containing, among other things, (i) all information necessary (including whether a Termination
Event has occurred) to enable the Indenture Trustee to make any withdrawal and deposit required by
Section 5.03(a) of the Indenture, to give any notice required by Section 7.02 of
the Indenture and make the distributions required by Section 5.03(b) of the Indenture, (ii)
all information necessary to enable the Indenture Trustee to send the statements to Noteholders
required by Section 5.05 of the Indenture, (iii) a listing of each Receivable which became
a Defaulted Receivable during the related Collection Period, identified by account number, and (iv)
a certification that all Receivables are Eligible Receivables, that the Collateral Test has been
met, and that the Issuer is in compliance with Section 3.15 of the Indenture (it being
understood that if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, this clause (iv) shall
require only a certification that the Collateral Test has been met). In addition to the
information set forth in the preceding sentence, the Monthly Servicer Report shall also contain the
following information: (i) the Aggregate Receivables Balance, the Average Delinquency Ratio, the
Average Default Ratio and the Excess Spread for such Determination Date; (ii) whether any
Termination Event has occurred as of such Determination Date; and (iii) whether any Termination
Event that may have occurred as of a prior Determination Date is deemed cured as of such
Determination Date.
(c) No later than 1:00 p.m. New York time, the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture

certificate) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s
supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer

such officer and the nature and status thereof.
(b) Each party hereto shall deliver to the other parties hereto and the Agent promptly (and in
no event later than two (2) Business Days) after a Responsible Officer of such Person has obtained
knowledge or notice thereof, written notice of any event which with the giving of notice or lapse
of time, or both, would become a Servicer Event of Default under Section 10.01.
(c) Bay View Acceptance will deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the

and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as
such firm considered necessary in the circumstances; (ii) included tests relating to the servicing
of automobile installment sales contracts serviced for others in accordance with the requirements
of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (the “Program”), to the extent the
procedures in the Program are applicable to the servicing obligations set forth in this Agreement;
(iii) included an examination of the delinquency and loss statistics relating to the Servicer’s
portfolio of automobile installment sales contracts; and (iv) except as described in the statement,
disclosed no exceptions or errors in the records relating to automobile, van, sport utility vehicle
and light truck loans serviced for others that, in the firm’s opinion, generally
38
accepted auditing
standards requires such firm to report. The Accountants’ Report shall further state that: (1) a
review in accordance with agreed upon procedures was made of three randomly selected Monthly
Servicer Reports; (2) except as disclosed in the Accountants’ Report, no exceptions or errors in
the Monthly Servicer Reports so examined were found; and (3) the delinquency and loss information
relating to the Receivables contained in the Monthly Servicer Reports were found to be accurate.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, it
shall only be required to deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Agent and the Noteholders, on or
before April 15th of each year, with respect to the most recently ended fiscal year of
the Backup Servicer, a copy of its annual SAS-70 and its audited financial statements for such
fiscal year.
Section 6.09. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding Receivables. The
Servicer shall provide to representatives of the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Agent
and the Noteholders reasonable access to the documentation regarding the Receivables. Each of the
Depositor, the Issuer and the Servicer will permit any authorized representative or agent
designated by the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Agent or any Noteholder to visit and
inspect any of the properties of the Depositor, the Issuer or Servicer, as the case may be, to
examine the corporate books and financial records of the Depositor, the Issuer or Servicer, as the
case may be, its records relating to the Receivables, and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom
and to discuss the affairs, finances, and accounts of the Depositor, the Issuer or the Servicer, as
the case may be, with its principal officers, as applicable, and its independent accountants. In
each case, such access shall be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and during
normal business hours. Nothing in this Section 6.09 shall derogate from the obligation of
the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the
Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section
6.09 as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 6.09.
Any Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Note (or by acquisition of its beneficial interest
therein), shall be deemed to have agreed to keep confidential and not to use for its own benefit
any information obtained by it pursuant to this Section 6.09, except as may be required by
applicable law.
Section 6.10. Recalculation of Monthly Servicer Report. (a) On or before each Determination
Date, the Servicer will deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Agent and the Backup Servicer the
Monthly Servicer Report, and to the Backup Servicer a computer diskette (or other electronic
transmission) in a format acceptable to the Backup Servicer containing such information with
respect to the Receivables as of the close of business on the last day of the preceding Collection
Period as is necessary for preparation of the Monthly Servicer Report. The Backup Servicer shall
use such computer diskette (or other electronic transmission) to compare against the information
specified in Section 6.10(b)(iii) contained in the Monthly Servicer Report delivered by the
Servicer, and the Backup Servicer shall certify to the Agent that it has recalculated the Monthly
Servicer Report in accordance with this Section 6.10 and shall notify the Servicer, the
Agent and the Indenture Trustee of any discrepancies, in each case, on or before the related
Payment Date. In the event that the Backup Servicer reports any discrepancies, the Servicer and
the Backup Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancies prior to the related Payment
Date, but in the absence of a reconciliation, the Monthly Servicer Report shall
39
control for the
purpose of calculations and payments with respect to the related Payment Date. In the event that
the Backup Servicer and the Servicer are unable to reconcile discrepancies with respect to a
Monthly Servicer Report by the related Payment Date, (i) the Backup Servicer will notify the
Indenture Trustee, and (ii) the Servicer shall cause a firm of Independent Public Accountants, at
the Servicer’s expense, to audit the Monthly Servicer Report and, prior to the fifth calendar day
of the following month, reconcile the discrepancies. The effect, if any, of such reconciliation
shall be reflected in the Monthly Servicer Report for such next succeeding Determination Date. In
addition, the Servicer shall, if so requested by the Majority Holders, deliver to the Backup
Servicer (i) within five (5) Business Days of demand therefor a computer tape containing as of the
close of business on the date of demand all of the data maintained by the Servicer in computer
format in connection with servicing the Receivables and (ii) within fifteen (15) Business Days of
demand therefor a copy of such other information as is reasonably requested by the Majority Holders
for the purpose of reconciling such discrepancies. Other than the duties specifically set forth in
this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no obligations hereunder, including, without
limitation, to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer. The
Backup Servicer shall have no liability for any actions taken or omitted by the Servicer. The
duties and obligations of the Backup Servicer shall be determined solely by the express provisions
of this Agreement and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against
the Backup Servicer.
(b) The Backup Servicer shall review each Monthly Servicer Report delivered pursuant to
Section 6.10(a) and shall, based upon the information provided from the Servicer under
Section 6.10(a):
(i) confirm that such Monthly Servicer Report is complete on its face;
(ii) load or open the computer diskette or other electronic file (which shall be in a
format acceptable to the Backup Servicer) received from the Servicer pursuant to Section
6.10(a) hereof, confirm that such computer diskette is in a readable form and compare
the Receivable Balance of the Receivables on an aggregate basis to that set forth in such
Monthly Servicer Report and give notice of any discrepancy to the Agent; and
(iii) recalculate the Monthly Available Funds, the Principal Payment Amount, the Note
Interest, the Backup Servicer Fee, the Servicing Fee, the Indenture Trustee Fee, and the
amount on deposit in the Spread Account in the Monthly Servicer Report based solely on the
balances and calculations specifically set forth in the Monthly Servicer Report, and compare
such calculations to those set forth in the Monthly Servicer Report. To the extent of any
discrepancy, the Backup Servicer shall give notice thereof to the Agent. The Backup
Servicer’s obligation shall be limited to the mathematical recalculation of the amounts set
forth in this Section 6.10(b)(iii) based on the Monthly Servicer Report.
In addition, the Servicer shall, if so requested by the Backup Servicer, deliver to the Backup
Servicer its Collection Records and its monthly records promptly after demand thereof, and a
computer tape containing as of the close of business on the date of demand all of the data
maintained by the Servicer in computer format in connection with servicing the Receivables.
40
Section 6.11. Fidelity Bond. The Servicer hereby represents and warrants that it has obtained
and shall continue to maintain in full force and effect a fidelity bond in such form and amount as
is customary for prudent servicers acting as custodian of funds and documents in respect of
consumer contracts similar to the Receivables on behalf of institutional investors.
Section 6.12. No Offset. Prior to the termination of this Agreement, the obligations of the
Servicer under this Agreement shall not be subject to any defense, counterclaim or right of offset
which the Servicer has or may have against the Issuer, whether in respect of this Agreement, any
Receivable, or otherwise; provided, however, that no other claim, defense or right of the Servicer
shall be limited by this Section 6.12.
Section 6.13. Delivery of Backup Tapes to Backup Servicer. (a) In addition to the information
to be delivered by the Servicer to the Backup Servicer on or before each Determination Date
pursuant to Section 6.10(a), the Servicer shall deliver to the Backup Servicer, or its
designated agent, a computer diskette (or other electronic transmission), in a format acceptable to
the Backup Servicer or its designated agent, as the case may be, with the loan master file and
history information in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F on or prior to the Closing
Date in the case of the Initial Receivables, and on or prior to the related Funding Date in the
case of Subsequent Receivables (or, if there are less than two Funding Dates during any calendar
month, on each Determination Date and on the last calendar day of such month, or, if such day is
not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), which loan master file and history
information shall be sufficiently detailed to enable the Backup Servicer to maintain records
sufficient to assume the role of successor Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) In addition to the information required to be delivered by the Servicer to the Backup
Servicer or its designated agent on or before each Determination Date pursuant to Section
6.10(a) and on or prior to the Closing Date and each Funding Date pursuant to Section
6.13(a), the Servicer shall deliver the loan master file and history information to the Backup
Servicer or its designated agent on the Determination Date occurring in July, 2005 (with respect to
the period from and including the Initial Cutoff Date to the last day of the related Collection
Period) and on the Determination Date occurring every six months thereafter in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit F in writing and on a computer diskette (or other electronic
transmission) in a format acceptable to the Backup Servicer or its designated agent, as the case
may be, and as at such other times as may be requested by the Agent or the Backup Servicer upon
prior written notice to the Servicer, provided that the Backup Servicer or the Agent, as
applicable, shall deliver a copy of any such notice by the Backup Servicer or the Agent to the
Backup Servicer or the Agent simultaneously with its delivery of such notice to the Servicer. The
Backup Servicer shall have no obligation to verify the information delivered to it pursuant to this
Section 6.13(b); the Backup Servicer shall be responsible only for loading each computer
diskette and confirming that each such computer diskette is in readable form.
Section 6.14. Covenants of Servicer. The Servicer hereby makes the following covenants to the
other parties hereto on which the Indenture Trustee shall rely in accepting the Receivables in
trust. Except for a release to an insurer in exchange for insurance proceeds paid by such insurer
resulting from a claim for the total insured value of a vehicle, the Servicer shall not (i) release
the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable from the security interest granted by such
Receivable in whole or in part except in the event of payment in full by or on
41
behalf of the
Obligor thereunder or repossession, (ii) impair the rights of the Noteholders in the Receivables,
(iii) change the Annual Percentage Rate with respect to any Receivable, except as may be required
by applicable law or as permitted by Section 7.01(b) or (iv) otherwise modify any
Receivable except as permitted by this Agreement. In addition, the Servicer shall service the
Receivables as required by the terms of this Agreement and in material compliance with its current
servicing procedures for servicing all of its comparable motor vehicle contracts.
Section 6.15. Purchase of Receivables upon Breach. The Servicer, the Depositor, the Issuer or
the Indenture Trustee shall inform the other parties to this Agreement and the Agent promptly, in
writing, upon the discovery of any breach of Section 6.01, 6.02, 6.03,
6.04, 6.11, 6.14 or 7.01 hereof; provided, however, that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Servicer hereunder. Unless the
breach shall have been cured by the last day of the first full Collection Period following such
actual knowledge or receipt of notice by an Authorized Officer of the Servicer, the Servicer shall
purchase as of the Business Day preceding the Determination Date relating to the respective
Collection Period any Receivable that is materially and adversely affected by such breach or which
materially and adversely affects the interests of any Noteholder (which shall include any
Receivable as to which a breach of Section 6.02 has occurred). In consideration of the
purchase of such Receivable, the Servicer shall remit the Repurchase Price in the manner specified
in Section 3.03(a) hereof. The Indenture Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any
affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any
Receivable pursuant to this Section. The purchase obligation set forth in this Section shall,
except as provided below, be the sole remedy of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the
Noteholders with respect to any of the aforementioned breaches by the applicable Servicer;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall indemnify the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Noteholders and each of their respective officers, employees,
directors, agents and representatives against all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and
liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or
incurred by any of them as a result of third party claims arising out of the events or facts giving
rise to such breach. No predecessor or successor Servicer shall be responsible for the acts or
omissions of such predecessor or successor Servicer. Upon receipt of the Repurchase Price and any
related indemnity payments, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of
transfer or assignment, without recourse, as are prepared by the Servicer and delivered to the
Indenture Trustee and are necessary to vest in the Servicer or such designee the Issuer’s right,
title and interest in the Receivable. Indemnification by the Servicer under this Section
6.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement (or, in the case of indemnification of the
Indenture Trustee or the Backup Servicer, shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture
Trustee or Backup Servicer, respectively).
If the Servicer fails to repurchase any Receivable or make any indemnity payment which it is
so required to acquire or make pursuant to this Section by the date specified, the Indenture
Trustee shall be obligated promptly to notify the Contributor and the Agent of such failure, and
the Contributor shall be obligated to purchase the Receivable or make such payment within five (5)
Business Days following such notification and to deposit the Repurchase Price into the Collection
Account or make such payment.
Section 6.16. Custodian Files. The Servicer hereby agrees to hold each Custodian File and
each document part thereof in the Servicer’s possession at any time and for any reason in
42
trust for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders. The Servicer agrees to
promptly deliver to the Custodian each Custodian File and each and every document part thereof when
the Servicer’s need therefor in connection with its duties hereunder no longer exists, unless the
associated Receivable has been liquidated and the Servicer has certified the same to the Custodian
in accordance with the provisions of the Custodian Agreement. The Servicer agrees to hold the
Custodian Files and documents contained therein that are in its possession in accordance with the
same standards required of the Custodian under the Custodian Agreement. The Servicer agrees that
all Custodian Files in its possession shall be held at its chief executive office as specified in
Section 8.01(b)(x) hereof or at such other location identified from time to time to the
Indenture Trustee and the Agent; provided, however, that the Servicer may
temporarily move a Custodian File without such identification as necessary to conduct its servicing
activities for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days. If the Backup Servicer is acting as the
successor Servicer and performs any duties pursuant to this Section 6.16, it shall be
reimbursed pursuant to Section 5.03(b) of the Indenture for any costs incurred by it in
performing such duties.
Article VII
Collections
Section 7.01. Collection of Receivable Payments; Modification and Amendment of Receivables.
(a) Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer
shall collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when
the same shall become due, and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect
to all comparable automobile receivables that it services for itself or others and otherwise act
with respect to the Receivables, the Dealer Agreements, the Insurance Policies and the rest of the
Trust Estate in such manner as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the
amount to be received by the Indenture Trustee with respect thereto (it being understood that if
the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, it shall have no duty to enforce any Dealer
Agreements). The Servicer is authorized in its discretion to waive any prepayment charge, late
payment charge or any other similar fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing
any Receivable.
(b) The Servicer may at any time agree to a modification or amendment of a Receivable in order
to (i) change the Obligor’s regular due date to a date within thirty (30) days in which such due
date occurs or (ii) re-amortize the scheduled payments on the Receivable following a partial
prepayment of principal, but not to extend the final maturity of the Receivable. In no event shall
the Servicer reduce the APR on any Receivable below 4%.
(c) The Servicer may grant payment extensions on a Receivable (excluding those modifications
permitted by Section 7.01(b)) in accordance with its customary procedures if the Servicer
believes in good faith that such extension is necessary to avoid a default on such Receivable, will
maximize the amount to be received with respect to such Receivable, and is otherwise in the best
interests of the Noteholders; provided that in no event shall a Receivable be extended such
that any payment thereon would be due after the month immediately following the month in which the
Maturity Date occurs; provided, further, that no extensions may be granted by the
Servicer until at least three consecutive Scheduled Obligor Payments have been received
43
by Servicer under the related Receivables; provided, further, that no more
than one extension per year shall be permitted on any Receivable and no more than 3 extensions
total shall be permitted on any Receivable; provided, further, that no extension
may be granted on any Receivable within 6 months following the date of origination thereof; and
provided, further, that as of the last day of any Collection Period, the aggregate
Receivable Balance of Receivables the term of which has been extended during the twelve month
period ending on the last day of such Collection Period shall not exceed 3.0% of the Aggregate
Receivable Balance (excluding any Holiday Pay Receivables extended under the Holiday Pay
Receivables Program) measured as of the last day of such Collection Period.
(d) The Servicer shall direct Obligors to make all payments on the Receivables to be made
directly to one or more post office boxes established and maintained in the name of the Indenture
Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders designated by the Servicer prior to the Closing Date and set
forth on Exhibit G hereto (the “Post Office Boxes”) (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting
as successor Servicer, to the Backup Servicer Lockbox); provided, however, that with respect to
Obligors who have amounts debited from a bank account, payments shall be directed to a bank account
set forth on Exhibit G hereto at the Local Bank (the “Local Bank Account”) (or, if the
Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, to the Backup Servicer Account). Until the
occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, or until a Termination Event shall have occurred and be
continuing and the Majority Lenders elect to direct the Indenture Trustee that the Servicer shall
no longer have access to the Post Office Boxes, the Indenture Trustee agrees that the Servicer
shall have access to the Post Office Boxes at all times. The Servicer shall remove all payments on
the Receivables from the Post Office Boxes on each Business Day and shall deposit such amounts in
the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, for deposit
into the Backup Servicer Account) by the end of each such Business Day; provided, that if
the Servicer is unable to remove any such payments from the Post Office Boxes by 2:00 p.m. (Pacific
time) on any Business Day because such payments have not been delivered by such time or the Post
Office Boxes are inaccessible as a result of circumstance beyond the control of the Servicer, then
the Servicer shall remove such payments and deposit them into the Local Bank Account (or the Backup
Servicer Account, as applicable) prior to 2:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the first Business Day upon
which such payments were available for removal from the Post Office Boxes. The Servicer shall
remit to the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, to the
Backup Servicer Account) by the end of each Business Day on which the Servicer receives any other
payments made by or on behalf of the Obligors with respect to a Receivable, including all Actual
Payments, Insurance Proceeds, Recoveries, Principal Reduction Amounts, Repurchase Prices and all
proceeds relating to the repossession or disposition of the Financed Vehicles (including recourse
payments received from Dealers with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty of such
Dealers under the Dealer’s Agreements and any State tax refunds), to the extent such payments are
received by the Servicer by 2:00 p.m. (Pacific time), or by the end of the following Business Day,
with respect to any such payments received after such time.
(e) The Servicer shall cause to be deposited into the Collection Account all Collections in
the Local Bank Account (or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, in the Backup
Servicer Account) that are cleared funds within two (2) Business Days of deposit therein.
44
(f) With respect to each Receivable (other than a Repurchased Receivable), payments actually
received from or on behalf of the Obligor shall be applied hereunder: first, to interest and
principal in accordance with the simple interest method to the extent necessary to bring such
Receivable current; second, in connection with the redemption of a defaulted Receivable, to
reimburse the Servicer for reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Servicer
in connection with such Receivable; third, to Supplemental Servicing Fees; and fourth, to principal
in accordance with the simple interest method.
(g) On each Transfer Date, to the extent that Monthly Available Funds would not otherwise be
sufficient to satisfy amounts through clause Thirteenth of Section 5.03(b) of the Indenture
on the related Payment Date, the Servicer may, but will not be required to, advance and remit to
the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account, in such manner as will ensure that the
Indenture Trustee will have immediately available funds on account thereof by 11:00 a.m. New York
City time on the next succeeding Payment Date, an amount (a “Servicer Advance”) equal to
any payment due under any Receivable during the prior Collection Period but unpaid during such
Collection Period. In consideration of each Servicer Advance the Servicer will be entitled to
retain any late payment fees recovered from the Obligor with respect to any Receivables payment
covered by a Servicer Advance. In addition, the Servicer will be reimbursed for Servicer Advances
from funds in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 5.03 of the Indenture.

(xii) No Injunctions. There are no existing injunctions, writs, restraining orders or
other similar orders which might adversely affect the performance by the Servicer or its
obligations under, or the validity and enforceability of, this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document to which it is a party.
(xiii) Practices. The practices used or to be used by the Servicer, to monitor
collections with respect to the Receivables and repossess and dispose of the Financed
Vehicles related to the Receivables will be, in all material respects, in conformity with
the requirements of all applicable federal and State laws, rules and regulations, and this
Agreement. The Servicer is in possession of all State and local licenses (including all
debt collection licenses) required for it to perform its services hereunder, and none of

Section 8.02. Purchase of Receivables upon Breach of Representation and Warranty. (a) The
Contributor, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Issuer, the Agent or the
Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform all such other Persons and other parties to
48
this Agreement promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the
Servicer’s covenants or representations and warranties pursuant to Section 8.01;
provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not derogate from
any obligation of the Servicer hereunder to repurchase any Receivable; further,
provided, that the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Agent and the Backup Servicer shall
have no duty to inquire or to investigate the breach of any of such covenants or representations
and warranties. Unless the breach shall have been cured by the last day of the first full calendar
month following the discovery by or notice to the Servicer of the breach, the Servicer shall have
an obligation, and the Indenture Trustee shall (provided that a Responsible Officer either
has actual knowledge or has received written notice thereof) make demand upon the Servicer, to
repurchase as of the Business Day preceding the Determination Date relating to the respective
Collection Period any Receivable materially and adversely affected by the breach. In consideration
of the purchase of the Receivable, the Servicer shall remit the Repurchase Price in the manner
specified in Section 3.03(a) of the Contribution Agreement and Section 3.03(a) of
this Agreement. The sole remedy (except as set forth in Section 8.02(b)) of the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders with respect to a breach of the Servicer’s covenants or representations
and warranties pursuant to Section 8.01 shall be the right to require the Servicer to
repurchase Receivables pursuant to this Section 8.02 and to offset the purchase price
against amounts owed to the Servicer hereunder.
(b) In addition to the foregoing and notwithstanding whether the related Receivable shall have
been purchased by the Servicer, the Servicer shall indemnify the Contributor, the Depositor, the
Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee (as such and in its
individual capacity), the Agent, the Custodian and the Noteholders against all costs, expenses,
losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, which
may be asserted against or incurred by any of them as a result of third party claims arising out of
the events or facts giving rise to a breach of the covenants or representations and warranties set
forth in Section 8.01. Indemnification by the Servicer under this Section 8.02(b)
shall survive the termination of this Agreement (or, in the case of indemnification of the
Indenture Trustee or the Backup Servicer, shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture
Trustee or Backup Servicer, respectively).
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer
shall have no duty to repurchase any Receivable pursuant to Section 8.02(a) or to make any
indemnification provided for in Section 8.02(b) with respect to the covenant set forth in
Section 8.01(a)(v) and the representation set forth in Section 8.01(b)(x).
Section 8.03. Representations of Backup Servicer. The Backup Servicer makes the following
representations and warranties to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Agent, on which the Issuer
relies in accepting the Receivables in trust, and the Servicer relies in connection with the
performance of its obligations hereunder. The representations and warranties speak as of the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, and as of each Funding Date, but
shall survive each sale of the Receivables to the Issuer and the subsequent pledge thereof to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:
(a) The Backup Servicer has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with power and authority to

Agreement and to carry out its terms; and the execution, delivery, and performance of this
Agreement shall have been duly authorized by the Backup Servicer by all necessary corporate
action.
(c) This Agreement shall constitute a legal, valid, and binding obligation of the
Backup Servicer enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity, regardless
of whether such enforceability shall be considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(d) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
fulfillment of the terms thereof shall not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the
terms and provisions of, nor constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default
under, the articles of association or by-laws of the Backup Servicer, or any material
indenture, agreement, or other instrument to which the Backup Servicer is a party or by
which it shall be bound; nor result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any of
its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement, or other instrument;
nor violate any law or any order, rule, or regulation applicable to the Backup Servicer of
any court or of any federal or State regulatory body, administrative agency, or other
governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Backup Servicer or its properties.
(e) There are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the Backup Servicer’s
best knowledge, threatened before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, or
other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Backup Servicer or its
properties (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) seeking any

provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable to the Owner Trustee

and obligations of the Servicer (or any successor thereto pursuant to Section 9.02) as
Servicer pursuant to Section 10.01, a non-extension of the servicing term referred to in

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, indemnification by the Servicer under
Sections 9.01(d), (e) and (f) shall not apply to the Backup Servicer in its
capacity as successor Servicer. Indemnification under this Article shall survive the termination

If the Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Article and the recipient
thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the recipient shall promptly repay such
amounts collected to the Servicer, without interest.
(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of the Servicer
described in this Section shall not terminate or be deemed released upon the resignation or
termination of the Servicer and shall survive any termination of this Agreement to the extent that
such obligations arise from the Servicer’s actions hereunder while acting as Servicer.
Section 9.02. Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, the Servicer
and Backup Servicer. (a) The Servicer shall not merge or consolidate with any other Person or
permit any other Person to become the successor to the Servicer’s business without the written
consent of the Majority Holders. The Servicer shall not merge or consolidate with any other
Person, convey or transfer substantially all its assets as an entirety to another Person, or permit
any other Person to become the successor to the Servicer’s business unless, after the merger,
consolidation, conveyance, transfer or succession, the successor or surviving entity shall be an
Eligible Servicer and shall be capable of fulfilling the duties of the Servicer contained in this
Agreement. Any Person (i) into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting
from any merger or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, (iii) which acquires by
conveyance or transfer substantially all of the assets of the Servicer, or (iv) succeeding to the
business of the Servicer, in any of the foregoing cases shall execute an agreement of assumption
acceptable to the Majority Holders to perform every obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement
and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and, whether or not such assumption
agreement is executed, shall be the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents to which it is a party without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement, anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer shall provide written notice of any merger, consolidation
or succession pursuant to this Section 9.02(a) to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the
Depositor, the Noteholders, the Agent and the Indenture
52
Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a condition to the consummation of the
transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, (w) immediately after giving
effect to such transaction, no representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 8.01
shall have been breached (for purposes hereof, such representations and warranties shall speak as
of the date of the consummation of such transaction), no Servicer Event of Default and no event
which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become a Servicer Event of Default, shall have
occurred and be continuing, (x) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the
Agent an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation,
merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 9.02(a) and
that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which it is a party relating to such transaction have been complied with, and (y) the
Servicer shall have delivered to the Agent and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either
(A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements and continuation
statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed (or listing which such documents
will need to be executed and filed) that are necessary fully to preserve and protect the interest
of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the Receivables, and reciting the details of such
filings, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to
preserve and protect such interest. The Opinion of Counsel required by this Section shall be an
expense of the Servicer.
(b) Any Person (i) into which the Backup Servicer may be merged or consolidated, (ii) which
may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Backup Servicer shall be a party, or (iii)
which may succeed to the properties and assets of the Backup Servicer substantially as a whole,
which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every
obligation of the Backup Servicer hereunder, shall be the successor to the Backup Servicer under
this Agreement without further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided,
however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to release the Backup Servicer from any obligation
hereunder. In the event that the resulting entity does not meet the eligibility requirements for
the Indenture Trustee set forth in the Indenture, the Backup Servicer, upon the written request of
the Majority Holders, shall resign from its obligations and duties under this Agreement.
Section 9.03. Limitation on Liability of Servicer, the Backup Servicer and Others. (a)
Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors or officers or employees or agents of the Servicer
shall be under any liability to the Contributor, the Depositor, the Issuer, the Noteholders or the
Agent, except as provided in this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking
of any action pursuant to this Agreement in the good faith business judgment of the Servicer;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer against any liability that
would otherwise be imposed by reason of bad faith, willful misconduct in the performance of duties,
or by reason of negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard of
its obligations and duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a
party. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good
faith on the written advice of counsel or on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed
and submitted by the Agent, the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee and the Backup Servicer
respecting any matters arising under this Agreement and any such written advice of counsel shall be
full and complete authorization for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer in reliance in good
faith and in accordance with such advice.
53
(b) The Backup Servicer (i) shall not be liable for its actions or omissions hereunder except
for its negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) shall not be responsible for any recitals,
statements, representations, or warranties made herein, except those expressly made by it as Backup
Servicer and (iii) may conclusively rely upon, and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining
from acting in reliance upon, any document, certificate, instrument, opinion, certificate, report,
notice, statement, consent, resolution, entitlement order, approval or conversation believed by it
to be genuine and made by the proper person and upon opinions of counsel or other experts
reasonably selected by it. The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for an error of judgment made
in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Backup Servicer, unless it shall be proven that the
Backup Servicer was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts with respect to such error of
judgment.
(c) The Backup Servicer shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of
any of its rights or powers, if the repayment of such funds or adequate written indemnity
satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it prior to the
expenditure or risk of such funds or incurring of financial liability.
(d) The Backup Servicer shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters
stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document.
(e) The Backup Servicer may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any
duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees
appointed with due care, and shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence on
the part of any agent, attorney, custodian or nominee so appointed.
(f) To the extent that the Backup Servicer is required to be indemnified by the Depositor
pursuant to Sections 5.09 hereof, such amounts shall be reimbursable from the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 5.03(b) of the Indenture. To the extent that the Backup
Servicer is required to be indemnified by the Servicer pursuant to 9.01 hereof and does not
receive payment for the applicable indemnified amount from the Servicer, such amounts shall be
reimbursable from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.03(b) of the Indenture.
Section 9.04. Delegation of Duties. The Servicer may delegate duties under this Agreement
with the prior written consent of the Majority Holders. The Servicer may at any time perform the
specific duty of repossession of Financed Vehicles through sub-contractors who are in the business
of servicing automotive receivables and may perform other specific duties through such
sub-contractors; provided however, that no such delegation or subcontracting duties by the Servicer
shall relieve the Servicer of its responsibility with respect to such duties.
Section 9.05. Servicer and Backup Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of
Section 9.02, neither the Servicer nor the Backup Servicer shall resign from the
obligations and duties imposed on it by this Agreement as Servicer or Backup Servicer except upon a
determination that by reason of a change in legal requirements, the performance of its duties under
this Agreement would cause it to be in violation of such legal requirements in a manner which would
result in a material adverse effect on the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the
54
case may be, and the Majority Holders do not elect to waive the obligations of the Servicer or
the Backup Servicer, as the case may be, to perform the duties which render it legally unable to
act or to delegate those duties to another Person. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Servicer or Backup Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such
effect delivered and acceptable to the Majority Holders. No resignation of the Servicer shall
become effective until the Backup Servicer or a successor Servicer acceptable to the Majority
Holders that is an Eligible Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the
Servicer. No resignation of the Backup Servicer shall become effective until a Person acceptable
to the Majority Holders that is an Eligible Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and
obligations of the Backup Servicer; provided, however, that in the event a successor Backup
Servicer is not appointed within sixty (60) days after the Backup Servicer has given notice of its
resignation as permitted by this Section 9.05, the Backup Servicer may petition a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. Notwithstanding anything else herein to
the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any transition expenses,
servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicer fee paid hereunder and the
amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer under this Sale and
Servicing Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein or be liable for or be
required to make any servicer advances, nor shall the Indenture Trustee be required to act as
successor Servicer or perform any duties of the successor Servicer hereunder.
Section 9.06. Backup Servicer’s Reliance; Liability; Errors. (a) The Backup Servicer may
reasonably rely on any records and documentation provided, produced or supplied by the Servicer.
The Backup Servicer shall have no liability in connection with the malfeasance or nonfeasance of
the Servicer or the inaccuracy of any data provided, produced or supplied by the Servicer. The
Backup Servicer shall have no liability for any errors perpetuated by it in the performance of its
duties hereunder or under the Transaction Documents as a result of a latent defect in any
underlying records or data provided to it by the Servicer except for such latent defects that
remain undiscovered or uncorrected as a result of the willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence
of the Backup Servicer in the performance of its duties hereunder or under the Transaction
Documents.
(b) The Backup Servicer may accept and reasonably rely on all accounting and servicing records
and other documentation provided to the Backup Servicer, including documents prepared or maintained
by the Servicer, or any party providing services related to the Receivables (each, a “third
party”). The Backup Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability
(collectively “liability”) for the acts or omissions of any third party. If any error, inaccuracy
or omission (collectively “error”) exists in any information provided to the Backup Servicer and
such error causes or materially contributes to the Backup Servicer making or continuing any error
(a “continuing error”), the Backup Servicer shall have no liability for such continuing error;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup Servicer against any liability
arising from its willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in discovering or correcting or
failing to discover or correct any error or in the performance of its duties contemplated herein.
(c) If the Backup Servicer becomes aware of any error or continuing error which in the opinion
of the Backup Servicer impairs its ability to perform its services hereunder the Backup Servicer
may undertake such data or records reconstruction as it deems appropriate to
55
correct any such error or continuing error and to prevent future continuing error. To the
extent it is not otherwise reimbursed under this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall be entitled
to recover its costs incurred in correcting any such error or continuing error from the Servicer;
provided, however, that the Backup Servicer shall not be entitled to recover any such costs unless
it shall have received the written consent of the Indenture Trustee prior to taking any such
corrective action pertaining to the error.

Affiliates is designated as servicer, subservicer, master servicer or any similar capacity
(irrespective of whether it is then acting in such capacity) unless such “Servicer Event of
Default” has been permanently waived and (i) none of the Contributor or any of its
applicable Affiliates has been terminated as servicer, subservicer, master servicer or other
similar capacity under such Similar Servicing Agreement as a result of such Servicer Event
of Default and (ii) the Contributor or any applicable Affiliate of the Contributor that acts
as servicer, subservicer, master servicer or any similar capacity under such Similar
Servicing Agreement retains its right (if any) thereunder to access each collections of
receivables thereunder without the prior written consent of third parties, unless such
rights are terminated by the Servicer independent of such Servicer Event of Default; or
(q) If the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, the failure of the Backup
Servicer to be controlled by or under the common control of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
Section 10.02. Consequences of a Servicer Event of Default. If a Servicer Event of Default
shall occur and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the written direction of the
Majority Holders or the Agent, by notice given in writing to the Servicer and Backup Servicer,
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement; provided,
58
however, that the Backup Servicer, acting as successor Servicer, may not be terminated
pursuant to this Section 10.02 for a Servicer Event of Default set forth in Xxxxxxx
00.00(x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (o) or
(p); provided, further, however, that the Backup Servicer, acting as
successor Servicer, may be terminated pursuant to clause (p) above if it is also the servicer under
the agreements referenced therein with respect to which Bay View Acceptance is the contributor. On
or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice (unless otherwise directed by the
Majority Holders or the Agent and subject to Section 10.03(a)), unless otherwise excluded
or modified herein all authority, power, obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer under
this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes or the Trust Estate or otherwise, automatically
shall pass to, be vested in and become obligations and responsibilities of the Backup Servicer;
provided, however, that the Backup Servicer shall have no liability with respect to any obligation
which was required to be performed by the prior Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer
becomes the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the
prior Servicer; and provided further, that the Backup Servicer shall have no
obligation to assume the responsibilities of Servicer with fewer than 30 days prior written notice.
The Backup Servicer is authorized and empowered by this Agreement to execute and deliver, on
behalf of the prior Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other
instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the
Receivables and the rest of the Trust Estate and related documents or otherwise. The prior
Servicer agrees, if so directed by the Majority Holders or by the Agent, to continue to act as
Servicer until the successor Servicer assumes the responsibilities of Servicer, and agrees to
cooperate with the Backup Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights
of the prior Servicer under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the execution of one or
more specific powers of attorney pursuant to Section 10.03(g) at the request of the
successor Servicer and the transfer to the Backup Servicer for administration by it of all cash
amounts that shall at the time be held by the prior Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by
the prior Servicer, in the Collection Account or thereafter received with respect to the
Receivables and the delivery to the Backup Servicer or the Custodian, as applicable, of all
Custodian Files and Collection Records and a computer tape in readable form containing all
information necessary to enable the Backup Servicer or another successor Servicer to service the
Receivables and the rest of the Trust Estate. The Servicer agrees that the Indenture Trustee and
the Backup Servicer shall eliminate the Servicer’s access to all Post Office Boxes in accordance
with certain instructions to be executed by the Servicer giving the Indenture Trustee and Backup
Servicer access to the Post Office Boxes, provided that the Indenture Trustee shall not be
liable for any access gained by the Servicer to the Post Office Boxes after the Indenture Trustee
has used its best efforts to prohibit such access. All reasonable costs and expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Custodian Files to the successor
Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this
Section 10.02 shall be paid by the prior Servicer upon presentation of reasonable
documentation of such costs and expense
s. In addition, any successor Servicer shall be entitled to
payment from the immediate predecessor Servicer for reasonable transition expenses incurred in
connection with acting as successor Servicer. The prior Servicer shall grant the Depositor, the
Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Agent reasonable access to the prior Servicer’s
premises, computer files, personnel, records and equipment at the prior Servicer’s expense. If
requested by the Majority Holders, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer shall
terminate any arrangements
59
relating to the Local Bank Account with the Local Bank or the Post Office Boxes, and direct
the Obligors to make all payments under the Receivables directly to the successor Servicer at the
prior Servicer’s expense (in which event the successor Servicer shall process such payments
directly or through a lock-box account established in accordance with the instructions of the Agent
or the Majority Holders or, if the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, through the
Backup Servicer Lockbox). The Indenture Trustee shall send copies of all notices given pursuant to
this Section 10.02 to the Noteholders and the Agent. The Indenture Trustee and the Backup
Servicer may set off and deduct any amounts owed by the terminated Servicer from any amounts
payable to the terminated Servicer. When the Trustee or the Backup Servicer incurs expenses after
the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default specified in Section 10.01, the expenses are intended
to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other
applicable federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.
Section 10.03. Appointment of Successor. (a) Upon the Servicer’s receipt of a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 10.02, or upon the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to
Section 9.05, unless the Majority Holders direct otherwise, the Backup Servicer shall be
the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and
the transactions set forth or provided for in this Agreement, and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, restrictions, duties, liabilities and termination provisions relating thereto
placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided,
however that the Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any acts, omissions or obligations
of the Servicer prior to such succession or for any breach by the Servicer of any of its
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any related document or agreement.
The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action reasonably requested by the
parties hereto, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession.
(b) Notwithstanding the above, if the Backup Servicer shall be legally unable to act as
Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Majority Holders, shall appoint
any Eligible Servicer as the successor to, the Servicer. Pending such appointment, the outgoing
Servicer shall continue to act as Servicer until a successor has been appointed and accepted such
appointment. Subject to Section 9.05, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed as
relieving the Backup Servicer of its obligation to succeed as successor Servicer upon the
termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 10.02, or the resignation of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 9.05.
(c) Any successor Servicer other than the Backup Servicer shall be entitled to such
compensation (whether payable out of the Collection Account or otherwise) as the Servicer would
have been entitled to under the Agreement if the Servicer had not resigned or been terminated
hereunder. The Backup Servicer shall be entitled to the applicable Backup Servicing Fees owing to
it in accordance with Schedule II hereto.
(d) Any successor Servicer may accept and reasonably rely on all accounting and servicing
records and other documentation provided to such successor Servicer in connection with succession
to Servicer duties, including documents prepared or maintained by the Contributor, the Depositor or
the prior Servicer, or any party providing services related to the Receivables (each, a “Third
Party”). The Contributor, in its capacity as Servicer, shall indemnify and hold harmless the
successor Servicer and its officers, directors, employees and
60
agents, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual
capacity), the Noteholders and the Agent against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that
the successor Servicer, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee (as such and in its
individual capacity), the Noteholders and the Agent may sustain in any way (i) solely related to
the negligence or misconduct of the Servicer or any such Third Party based upon any matter related
to or arising out of this Agreement except for any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees, and related costs and judgments arising from such successor Servicer’s own negligence
or willful misconduct; or (ii) solely related to the conduct of such successor Servicer undertaken
at the direction of any party hereto or which result from the transfer of servicing to the
successor Servicer. The successor Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or
liability (collectively “liability”) for the acts or omissions of any Third Party. If any error,
inaccuracy or omission (collectively “error”) exists in any information provided to a successor
Servicer and such error causes or materially contributes to such successor Servicer making or
continuing any error (a “continuing error”), such successor Servicer shall have no liability for
such continuing error; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect
such successor Servicer against any liability arising from its willful misconduct, bad faith or
gross negligence in discovering or correcting or failing to discover or correct any error or in the
performance of its duties contemplated herein.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, any successor
Servicer shall not inherit any of the indemnification obligations of any prior servicer including
the original servicer.
(f) Any successor Servicer shall have (1) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing
obligations, if any, of the prior Servicer, (2) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid
by the prior Servicer, (3) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party in
this transaction and (4) no obligation to pay any fees, expenses or indemnities under Sections
8.02(b) or Section 9.01(d), (e) or (f).
(g) In order to permit the successor Servicer to more effectively perform its duties and
obligations under Section 6.04(b) of this Agreement, the Servicer hereby makes, constitutes
and appoints the successor Servicer, acting by or through any one or more of its officers or
employees, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for the Servicer and in the name place and stead
of the Servicer, and for the use and benefit of the Servicer, to take any actions necessary to
fulfill the successor Servicer’s obligations under Section 6.04(b), including without
limitation, the preparation, execution and/or delivery to the relevant governmental authorities of
any filings, notations of release or discharge, termination statements, Certificates of Title,
affidavits, releases, satisfactions of lien, certificates and other documents, instruments or
showings as may be required to cause the Certificate of Title relating to such Financed Vehicles to
be issued to reflect the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in such Financed Vehicles.
Section 10.04. Notification. Upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to, the
Servicer pursuant to this Article, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof
to the Noteholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Note Register, and to the Agent.
61
Section 10.05. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Supermajority Holders may waive any default by
the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except an event
resulting from the failure to make any required deposits to, or payments from, the Collection
Account in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default
shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.
Article XI
Administration of Trust Duties
Section 11.01. Administrative Duties.
(a) Administrative Duties with Respect to the Transaction Documents. The Contributor shall
perform all its duties and, unless otherwise specified, the administrative duties of the Issuer
under the Transaction Documents. In addition, the Contributor shall consult with the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Agent, as the Contributor deems appropriate regarding the
duties of the Issuer under the Transaction Documents. The Contributor shall monitor the
performance of the Issuer and shall advise the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Agent,
when action is necessary to comply with the Issuer’s duties under the Transaction Documents.
(b) Duties with Respect to the Issuer. (i) In addition to the duties of the Servicer set
forth in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the Contributor shall perform
such calculations and shall prepare for execution by the Issuer, or shall cause the preparation by
other appropriate Persons of all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and
opinions as it shall be the duty of the Issuer to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to this
Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or under State or federal tax or securities
laws and shall take all appropriate action that it is the duty of the Issuer to take pursuant to
this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, pursuant to
Section 5.1 (with respect to the preparation and filing of tax returns) of the Issuer Trust
Agreement.
(ii) In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other obligations under this
Agreement, the Contributor may enter into transactions with or otherwise deal with any of its
Affiliates; provided, however, that the terms of any such transaction or dealings
shall be in accordance with any directions received from the Issuer and shall be, in the
Contributor’s good faith business judgment, no less favorable to the Issuer in any material
respect.
(c) Records. The Contributor shall maintain appropriate books of account and records relating
to its duties performed under Section 11.01(a) and (b) hereof, which books of
account and records shall be accessible for inspection by the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee
and the Agent at any time during normal business hours.

Indenture for any costs incurred by it in performing its duties pursuant to this Section
12.02.

Miscellaneous Provisions
Section 13.01. Amendment. This Agreement may only be amended by mutual written consent of the
parties hereto and with the prior written consent of the Majority Holders; provided,
however, that, no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of,
or accelerate or delay the timing of, or change the allocation or priority of, collections of
payments on the Receivables or payments that shall be required to be made on any Note without the
consent of each Noteholder affected thereby, or (b) reduce the percentage of Noteholders, if any,
required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holder of all Notes then
outstanding or eliminate the right of the Noteholders to consent to any change described in clause
(a) affecting the Noteholders without the consent of the Noteholders; provided,
further, that no such amendment shall amend or modify any provision of Section 3.02(a)
hereof without the consent of the Supermajority Holders. No amendment made to the Transaction
Documents to which the Servicer has duties thereunder without the Servicer’s written consent, shall
be effective as to the Servicer, to the extent such amendment is disadvantageous in any respect to
the Servicer.
Section 13.02. Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may only be waived by written
consent of the Majority Holders and the Issuer, the Depositor, the Contributor and/or the Servicer,
if any such party is adversely affected thereby. The failure of any party hereto at any time to
require performance by any other party hereto of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way
affect that party’s right to enforce such provision, nor shall the waiver by any party of any
breach of any provision of this Agreement be taken or held to be a waiver of any further breach of
the same provision or any other provision.

Section 13.04. Severability of Provisions. If one or more of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be held invalid for any reason, such provisions shall be deemed severable from the remaining
provisions of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of such
remaining provisions. To the extent permitted by law, the parties hereto hereby waive any law
which renders any provision of this Agreement prohibited or unenforceable.
Section 13.05. Rights Cumulative. All rights and remedies under this Agreement are
cumulative, and none is intended to be exclusive of another. No delay or omission in insisting
upon the strict observance or performance of any provision of this Agreement, or in exercising any
right or remedy, shall be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of such provision, nor shall it
impair such right or remedy. Every right and remedy may be exercised from time to time and as
often as deemed expedient.
Section 13.06. No Offset. Prior to the termination of this Agreement, the obligations of the
Depositor and the Servicer under this Agreement shall not be subject to any defense, counterclaim
or right of offset which such Person may have against the Issuer, the Contributor, the Depositor,
the Servicer, any Noteholder, the Agent or the Indenture Trustee, whether in respect of this
Agreement, any Receivable or otherwise.
Section 13.07. Powers of Attorney. The Issuer shall, from time to time, provide to the

of attorney or other such written authorizations as may be appropriate to enable the Servicer, the

required
66
to provide such powers with respect to any matter for which the Issuer does not have authority
to perform itself.
Section 13.08. Assignment and Binding Effect. Except with respect to the grant of this
Agreement by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture and as expressly provided
herein, this Agreement may be assigned only with the written consent of the parties hereto and the
Majority Holders; however, in the event of an assignment, all provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties
hereto.
Section 13.09. Captions. The article, paragraph and other headings contained in this
Agreement are for reference purposes only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning
hereof.
Section 13.10. Legal Holidays. In the case where the date on which any action required to be
taken, document required to be delivered or payment required to be made is not a Business Day, such
action, delivery or payment need not be made on that date, but may be made on the next succeeding

Section 13.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of
counterparts including by facsimile or other electronic means, each of which counterparts shall be
deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (including New
York General Obligations Law Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 but otherwise without regard to the
conflict of laws principles thereof).
Section 13.13. Consent to Jurisdiction. (a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York and any court in the State of New York located in the
City and County of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action, suit or
proceeding brought against it and to or in connection with any of the Transaction Documents or the
transaction or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agree that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding
may be heard or determined in such New York State Court or in such federal court. The parties
hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto hereby waive and agree not to
assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise in any such suit, action or proceeding, any
claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that the suit, action
or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit,
67
action or proceeding
is improper or that the related documents or the subject matter thereof may not be litigated in or by such courts.
(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto shall not seek and hereby
waive the right to any review of the judgment of any such court by any court of any other nation or
jurisdiction which may be called upon to grant an enforcement of such judgment.
(c) Each of the Issuer, the Contributor, the Servicer, and the Depositor agrees that until
such time as the Notes have been paid in full, each of the Issuer, the Contributor, the Servicer,
and the Depositor shall have appointed, with prior written notice to the Agent, an agent registered
with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, with an office in the County of New York in
the State of New York, as its true and lawful attorney and duly authorized agent for acceptance of
service of legal process (which as of the date of this Agreement is Registered Agent Solutions
located at 0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 12203). Each of the Issuer, the Contributor, the
Servicer, and the Depositor agrees that service of such process upon such Person shall constitute
personal service of such process upon it. The Backup Servicer has appointed an agent registered
with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, with an office in the County of New York in
the State of New York, as its true and lawful attorney and duly authorized agent for acceptance of
service of legal process (which as of the date of this Agreement is National Corporate Research,
Ltd. located at 000 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 10122). The Backup Servicer agrees
that service of such process upon such Person shall constitute personal service of such process
upon it.
Section 13.14. Trial by Jury Waived. Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any right to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation arising directly
or indirectly out of, under or in connection with any of the Transaction Documents or the
transaction. Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any
party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, that it would not, in the event of
litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it has been induced to
enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party by, among other things, this
waiver.
Section 13.15. Parties. Except as set forth in Section 13.18 hereof, this Agreement
shall inure solely to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the parties hereto, and their
respective successors, legal representatives and assigns, and no other person shall have or be
construed to have any equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of or by virtue of this
Agreement or any provision contained herein.
Section 13.16. Relationship of the Parties. The relationship of the parties to this Agreement
is that of independent contractors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the activities contemplated
hereby shall be deemed to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or employer/employee
relationship among the Servicer and the Issuer.
Section 13.17. No Bankruptcy Petition Against the Issuer or the Depositor. The parties hereto
agree that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all
Outstanding Notes, none of them will institute against the Issuer, the Depositor or any
68
Noteholder or join any other Person in instituting against the Issuer, the Depositor or any
Noteholder any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or
other proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State of the United States. This
Section 13.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 13.18. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the
Agent and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders, the Agent and the Financial
Institutions and their respective successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, all covenants and agreements in this Agreement which expressly confer rights upon the
Issuer, any Noteholder, the Agent or the Indenture Trustee shall be for the benefit of and run
directly to such Noteholder, the Agent and the Indenture Trustee, and such Noteholder, the Agent
and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to rely on and enforce such covenants to the same
extent as if it or they were a party hereto. Except as expressly stated otherwise herein or in the
other Transaction Documents, any right of the Agent or the Majority Holders to direct, appoint,
consent to, approve of, or take any action under this Agreement, shall be a right exercised by the
Agent or the Majority Holders in its or their sole and absolute discretion.
Section 13.19. Reports to Holders. Any report, notice or financial statement delivered
pursuant to this Agreement by the Servicer to the Noteholders shall be provided by such Persons to
each Noteholder at the address last provided to the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee or such
Noteholder.
Section 13.20. Obligations of Depositor. The obligations of the Depositor under this
Agreement shall not be affected by reason of any invalidity, illegality or irregularity of any
Receivable.
