the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall release and shall execute and deliver
such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse or representation, as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the
Seller or its designee any Receivable repurchased pursuant hereto. It
is understood and agreed that the right to cause the Seller to purchase (or to
enforce the obligations of Seller under the Receivables Purchase Agreement to
purchase) any Receivable as described above shall constitute the sole remedy
respecting such breach available to the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Owner
Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee. Neither
the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee will have any duty to conduct an
affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the
repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section
3.03.

ADMINISTRATION
AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES
Section
4.01 Duties of
Servicer. The Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee, shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the
Receivables and perform the other actions required of the Servicer under this
Agreement. The Servicer shall service the Receivables in accordance
with its customary servicing practices, using the degree of skill and attention
that the Servicer exercises with respect to all other comparable motor vehicle
receivables that it services for itself and others. The Servicer’s
duties shall include the collection and posting of all payments, responding to
inquiries of Obligors, investigating delinquencies, sending payment statements
to Obligors, reporting any required tax information to Obligors, monitoring the
Collateral, accounting for collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements
to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions and
performing the other duties specified herein. The Servicer also shall
administer and enforce all rights of the holder of the Receivables under the
Receivables and the Dealer Agreements to the extent and in a manner consistent
with its customary practices. To the extent consistent with the
standards, policies and procedures otherwise required hereby and the Credit and
Collection Policy, 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 the managing, servicing, administration and
collection of the Receivables that it may deem necessary or
desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and
subject to Section 4.02, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to
execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Noteholders, or any of them,
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. The Servicer
is not required under the Basic Documents to make any disbursements via wire
transfer or otherwise on behalf of an Obligor. There are no
requirements under the Receivable or the Basic Documents for funds to be, and no
funds shall be, held in trust for an Obligor. No payments or
disbursements shall be made by the Servicer on behalf of an
Obligor. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own
name or in the name of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the
Certificateholders or the Noteholders, a legal proceeding to enforce a
Receivable pursuant to Section 4.03 or to commence or participate in any other
legal proceeding (including a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving a
Receivable, an Obligor or a Financed Vehicle. If the Servicer
commences or participates in any such legal proceeding in its own name, the
Indenture Trustee or the Issuer shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically
assigned the applicable Receivable to the Servicer solely for purposes of
commencing or participating in such proceeding as a party or claimant, and the
Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer to
execute and deliver in the Indenture Trustee’s or the Issuer’s name any notices,
demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other documents or
instruments in connection with any such proceeding. If in any
enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not
enforce a Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest
or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at the
Servicer’s expense and direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable,
including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Issuer, the Indenture
Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders. The Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee shall upon the written request of the Servicer furnish
the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably
necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and
administrative duties hereunder.

Section
4.02 Collection of Receivable
Payments; Modifications of Receivables.
(a) Consistent
with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement, the
Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to 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 motor vehicle receivables that it services for itself or
others. 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.
(2009-A
Sale and Servicing Agreement)
20
(b) Subject
to Section
4.06, the Servicer may grant extensions, rebates, deferrals, amendments,
modifications or adjustments on a Receivable in accordance with its customary
servicing practices; provided, however,
that if the Servicer (i) extends the date for final payment by the Obligor of
any Receivable beyond the last day of the Collection Period prior to the Class
A-4 Maturity Date or (ii) reduces the APR or unpaid principal balance with
respect to any Receivable other than as required by applicable law, it will
promptly purchase such Receivable in the manner provided in Section
4.07.
(c) The
Servicer may, but is not required to, make any advances of funds or guarantees
regarding collections, cash flows or distributions. Payments on the
Receivables, including payoffs made in accordance with the related documentation
for such Receivables, shall be posted to the Servicer’s Obligor records in
accordance with the principal, interest or other items in accordance with the
related documentation for such Receivables.
(d) Subject
to the provisions of Section 4.02(b), the Servicer and its Affiliates may engage
in any marketing practice or promotion or any sale of any products, goods or
services to Obligors with respect to the Receivables so long as such practices,
promotions or sales are offered to obligors of comparable motor vehicle
receivables serviced by the Servicer for itself and others, whether or not such
practices, promotions or sales might result in a decrease in the aggregate
amount of payments on the Receivables, prepayments or faster or slower timing of
the payment of the Receivables.
(e) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may refinance any
Receivable and deposit the full Principal Balance of such Receivable into the
Collection Account. The receivable created by such refinancing shall
not be property of the Issuer. The Servicer and its Affiliates may
also sell insurance or debt cancellation products, including products which
result in the cancellation of some or all of the amount of a Receivable upon the
death or disability of the Obligor or any casualty with respect to the Financed
Vehicle.
(f) Records
documenting collection efforts shall be maintained during the period a
Receivable is delinquent in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy. Such records shall be maintained on at least a periodic basis
that is not less frequent than as set forth in the Credit and Collection Policy,
and describe the entity’s activities in monitoring delinquent pool assets
including, for example, phone calls, letters and payment rescheduling plans in
cases where delinquency is deemed temporary (e.g., illness or unemployment) in
accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.
Section
4.03 Realization upon
Receivables. Consistent with the standards, policies and
procedures required by this Agreement and the Credit and Collection Policy, the
Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to repossess or otherwise convert the
ownership of and liquidate any Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable with
respect to which the Servicer shall have determined that eventual payment in
full is unlikely; provided, however, that the
Servicer may elect not to repossess a Financed Vehicle if in its good faith
judgment it determines that the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to
such Receivable would not be greater than the expense of such
repossession. In repossessing or otherwise converting the ownership
of a Financed Vehicle and liquidating a Receivable, 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 4.01, which
practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any
recourse to Dealers, the sale of 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 a Receivable; provided, however, 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 reasonable judgment
that such repair or repossession shall increase the related Liquidation Proceeds
by an amount materially greater than the expense for such repair or
repossession. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all
reasonable expenses incurred by it in the course of repossessing and liquidating
a Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds, but only out of the cash proceeds of the
sale of such Financed Vehicle, any deficiency obtained from the related Obligor
or any amounts received from recourse to the related Dealer.
(2009-A

Section
4.04 Target Overcollateralization
Amount and Reserve Account Required Amount. From time to time
after the date hereof, the Servicer may notify each Rating Agency that it wishes
to apply a formula for determining the Target Overcollateralization Amount or
the Reserve Account Required Amount that is different from the formula described
in the related definition, or change the manner by which the Reserve Account is
funded. If the Servicer provides such notice in writing to each Rating Agency
and the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to the application of
such formula or change and the Servicer delivers an Officer’s Certificate to the
Indenture Trustee to the effect that the Issuer has not received written notice
from any Rating Agency that the application of such formula or such change will
result in a reduction, withdrawal or down-grade of the then-current rating of
each class of Notes (upon receipt of which Officer’s Certificate the Indenture
Trustee shall have no obligation to verify the content thereof and no liability
as a result of its reliance thereon), then the Target Overcollateralization
Amount or the Reserve Account Required Amount, as applicable, will be determined
in accordance with the new formula or, if applicable, the manner in which the
Reserve Account is funded will change accordingly.
Section
4.05 Maintenance of Security
Interests in Financed Vehicles. The Servicer shall, in
accordance with its customary servicing procedures, take such steps as are
necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each
Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The provisions set forth
in this Section are the sole requirements under the Basic Documents with respect
to the maintenance of collateral or security on the Receivables. It
is understood that the Financed Vehicles are the collateral and security for the
Receivables, but that the certificate of title with respect to a Financed
Vehicle does not constitute collateral and merely evidences such security
interest. The Servicer is hereby authorized to take such steps as are
necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer and the
Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle, or for
any other reason. In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to
the Issuer 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 such Financed Vehicle is
located, to perfect a security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor
of the Issuer, the Servicer hereby agrees that the designation of HCA as the
secured party on the certificate of title is in its capacity as agent of the
Issuer.
(2009-A
Sale and Servicing Agreement)
22
Section
4.06 Covenants of
Servicer. By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Servicer hereby covenants as follows (upon which covenants the Issuer, the
Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee rely in accepting the Receivables and
delivering the applicable Securities):
(a) Liens in
Force. The Servicer will not release the Financed Vehicle
securing any Receivable from the security interest granted by such Receivable in
whole or in part except (i) in the event of payment in full by or on behalf of
the Obligor thereunder or payment in full less a deficiency which the Servicer
would not attempt to collect in accordance with its customary servicing
practices, (ii) in connection with repossession and sale of the Financed Vehicle
or (iii) as may be required by an insurer in order to receive proceeds from any
Insurance Policy covering such Financed Vehicle;
(b) No
Impairment. The Servicer shall do nothing to impair the rights
of the Trust in the property of the Trust;
(c) No
Amendments. The Servicer shall (i) not extend the date for
final payment by the Obligor of any Receivable beyond the last day of the
Collection Period prior to the Class A-4 Maturity Date; or (ii) reduce the APR
or unpaid principal balance with respect to any Receivable other than as
required by applicable law.
(d) Safekeeping. The
Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, shall hold, or cause its agent to hold,
the Receivable Files for the benefit of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in
accordance with its customary servicing practices.
Section
4.07 Purchase of Receivables Upon
Breach. Upon discovery by any party hereto of a breach of any
of the covenants set forth in Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.05 or 4.06 which materially
and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other
parties hereto; provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Servicer under this
Section 4.07. If the Servicer does not correct or cure such breach
prior to the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day (or, if
the Servicer elects, an earlier date) after the date that the Servicer became
aware or was notified of such breach, then the Servicer shall purchase any
Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach from the Issuer on
the Payment Date following the end of such Collection Period. Any
such purchase by the Servicer shall be at a price equal to the Purchased
Amount. In consideration for such repurchase, the Servicer shall make
(or shall cause to be made) a payment to the Issuer equal to the Purchased
Amount by depositing such amount into the Collection Account in accordance with
Section 5.04 on such Payment Date. Upon payment of such Purchased
Amount by the Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall release and
shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment,
in each case without recourse or representation, as shall be reasonably
necessary to vest in the Servicer or its designee any Receivable repurchased
pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of
the Servicer to purchase any Receivable as described above shall constitute the
sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee,
the Certificateholders, the Noteholders and the Indenture
Trustee.

Section
4.08 Servicing
Fee. The Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Servicer on

non-sufficient funds charges and any and all other administrative fees and
expenses or similar charges allowed by applicable law with respect to any
Receivable. The Servicer also will be entitled to receive investment

be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities
under this Agreement (including taxes imposed on the Servicer and expenses
incurred in connection with distributions and reports made by the Servicer to
the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee). The Servicer shall be
required to pay all of the Indenture Trustee’s fees, expenses, reimbursements
and indemnifications.

Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, and the Depositor, with a copy to each
Rating Agency, on or before the second Business Day prior to each Payment Date a
Servicer’s Certificate containing all information necessary to make the
distributions to be made on the related Payment Date pursuant to
Section 5.05 for the related Collection Period and such Servicer’s
Certificate shall be certified by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer to the
effect that the information provided is complete and no Servicer Termination
Events have occurred. If any defaults have occurred, such Servicer’s
Certificate will provide an explanation of such Servicer Termination
Events. Receivables to be purchased by the Servicer or to be
repurchased by the Seller and each Receivable that became a Liquidated
Receivable shall be identified by the Servicer by account number with respect to
such Receivable (as specified in the applicable Schedule of
Receivables). At the sole option of the Servicer, each Servicer’s
Certificate may be delivered in electronic or hard copy format.

Compliance, Notice of Servicer Termination Event.
(a) The
Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, and each

Officer’s Certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer, stating
that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding
12-month period (or such shorter period in the case of the first such Officer’s

based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this

Rating Agency, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, written notice
in an Officer’s Certificate of any event that with the giving of notice or lapse
of time or both would become a Servicer Termination Event under Section

Sections 4.09 and 8.04 of this Agreement and Sections 3.07, 3.19 and 5.01 of the
Indenture, the Basic Documents do not require any policies or procedures to

Section
4.12 Access to Certain
Documentation and Information Regarding Receivables. The
Servicer shall provide to representatives of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture

Servicer shall be required by applicable statutes or regulations to permit a
Noteholder to review such documentation. In each case, access shall
be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during the
normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer. Nothing in this
Section shall affect 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 to information as a result of such obligation
shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

of Sections 7.03 and 7.06.

Indenture Trustee, and each Rating Agency, within 120 days after the end of each
fiscal year (or, in the case of the first such report, not later than April

standards and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such

(v) Funds
on deposit in the Reserve Account, shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee in
Eligible Investments selected in writing by the Servicer; provided, however, that if the
Servicer fails to select any Eligible Investment, such funds shall remain
uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and/or the
Certificateholders, as applicable. Unless the Rating Agency Condition
is satisfied with respect to different investments, funds on deposit in the
Reserve Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments that will mature so
that such funds will be available on the next Payment Date. Funds
deposited in the Reserve Account, upon the maturity of any Eligible Investments
on a day which immediately precedes a Payment Date, are not required to be
invested overnight.
(vi) Funds
on deposit in the Collection Account shall be invested by the Indenture Trustee
in Eligible Investments selected in writing by the Servicer; provided, however, that if the
Servicer fails to select any Eligible Investments, such funds shall remain
uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by the

time in the Trust Accounts and in all proceeds thereof. The Trust
Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee
for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, as the case may
be. If, at any time, a Trust Account ceases to be an Eligible
Account, the Indenture Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall within
ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 15 calendar days,
as to which the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied) establish a new Trust
Account as an Eligible Account and shall transfer any cash or any investments
from the account that is no longer an Eligible Account to the Trust
Account. Neither the Servicer nor the Indenture Trustee shall in any
way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in any Trust Account resulting
from any investment loss in any Eligible Investment.

Owner Trustee with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, to instruct the

amounts deposited in error into such accounts.
(c) Except
for the Collection Account, the Note Distribution Account, the Interest

Account, there are no accounts required to be maintained under the
Basic Documents. No checks shall be issued, printed or honored with respect to
the Collection Account, the Note Distribution Account, the Interest Distribution
Account, the Principal Distribution Account or the Reserve Account.
Section
5.02 Application of
Collections. All payments received from or on behalf of an
Obligor during each Collection Period with respect to each Receivable (other
than a Purchased Receivable) shall be applied to interest and principal in
accordance with the Simple Interest Method. The Servicer shall make
all deposits of Collections and other Available Amounts received into the
Collection Account on the second Business Day following receipt
thereof. However, so long as the Monthly Remittance Condition is
satisfied, the Servicer may retain such amounts received during a Collection
Period until one Business Day prior to the related Payment Date. The
“Monthly Remittance
Condition” shall be deemed to be satisfied if (i) HCA or one of its
Affiliates is the Servicer, (ii) no Servicer Termination Event has occurred and
is continuing and (iii) HCA has a short-term debt rating of at least “F1+” from
Fitch and “A-1” from Standard &
Poor’s. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may remit
Collections to the Collection Account on any other alternate remittance schedule
(but not later than the Business Day prior to the related Payment Date) if the Rating Agency Condition
is satisfied with respect to such alternate remittance schedule. Pending deposit
into the Collection Account, Collections may be commingled and used by the
Servicer at its own risk and are not required to be segregated from its own
funds.

4.09) to make the following deposits and distributions from Available Amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account, and to the extent of any Reserve Account

following order and priority:
(i) to
the Servicer, the Servicing Fee, including any unpaid Servicing Fees with
respect to one or more prior Collection Periods, and Advances not previously
reimbursed to the Servicer;
(ii) to
the Interest Distribution Account, (a) the aggregate amount of interest accrued
for the related Interest Period on each of the Notes at their respective

after giving effect to all payments of principal to the Noteholders on the
preceding Payment Date; and (b) the excess, if any, of the amount of interest
payable to the Noteholders on those prior Payment Dates over the amounts
actually paid to the Noteholders on those prior Payment Dates, plus interest on

8.02 Consequences of a Servicer
Termination Event. If a Servicer Termination Event shall

voting interests of the Notes may, by notice given in writing to the Servicer
(and to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Depositor if given by

under this Agreement. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such
written notice, all authority, power, obligations and responsibilities of the

become obligations and responsibilities of the successor Servicer; provided, however, that the
successor Servicer shall have no liability with respect to any obligation that
was required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that
the successor Servicer becomes the Servicer or any claim of a third party based
on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer. The
successor Servicer is authorized and empowered by this Agreement to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the terminated 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
