repossessed;
(y) with respect to which the following is true:
The Lien Certificate for the related Financed Vehicle shows, or, if a
new or replacement Lien Certificate is being applied for with respect to such
Financed Vehicle, the Lien Certificate will be received within 180 days of the
related Purchase Date and will show, AFS named as the original secured party
under such Receivable and, accordingly, AFS , will be the holder of a first
priority security interest in such Financed Vehicle. With respect to each
Receivable for which the Lien Certificate has not yet been returned from the
Registrar of Titles, AFS has received written evidence from the related Dealer,
Third Party Lender or the Obligor that such
------------------
Lien Certificate showing such Seller as first lienholder has been applied for.
If the Receivable was originated in a state in which a filing or recording is
required of the secured party to perfect a security interest in motor vehicles,
such filings or recordings have been duly made to show AFS named as the original
secured party under the related Receivable;
(z) which is not a Defaulted Receivable;
(aa) which is not a Delinquent Receivable;
(bb) which is not secured by vehicles which are financed repossessions;
(cc) which, if a Consumer Direct Receivable or a TPL Receivable, the
---------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
principal balance) of Consumer Direct Receivables and TPL Receivables in the
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Receivable Pool exceeding 13% of the Total Receivables Pool; and
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(dd) which was originated in the United States of America and, at
--
the time of origination and, with respect to any Receivables purchased by AFS
-----------------------------------------------------
from a Dealer or a Third Party Lender, at the time of said purchase by AFS,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
materially conformed to all requirements of the Servicing Procedures and Credit
Manual applicable to such Receivable.
For purposes of this Agreement (including the computation from time to time
of the Borrowing Base), the eligibility of Receivables will be determined from
time to time, such that a Receivable that was an Eligible Receivable at one time
but that subsequently fails to meet
-5-
all applicable eligibility requirements will no longer be an Eligible Receivable
(unless and until it again meets all applicable eligibility requirements).
