Form of
Asset Representations Review Agreement
ARR Agreement, dated [ ], by and among [Asset Representations Reviewer] (“[Reviewer]”), Ally Bank, as Sponsor (the “Sponsor” or the “Client”) and [Trust] (the “Trust”) (this “Agreement”).
1. | Description of Services. |
Client has retained [Reviewer] to serve as an Asset Representations Reviewer to perform a review (the “Asset Representations Review” or “the Services”) on certain downgraded accounts and related receivables (each, an “Account” or a “Receivable”) owned by the Trust. The Services are designed to determine whether, for each Account and related Receivables and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Tests (as defined in Section 2.1) are satisfied or not satisfied with respect to the representations and warranties made about such Account and related Receivables in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of February 12, 2010, as amended, pursuant to which such Account and Receivables were sold to Ally Wholesale Enterprises LLC (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”).
Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Appendix A to the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of February 12, 2010, as amended (the “Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement”).
The provision of the Asset Representations Review is contingent upon [Reviewer]’s ability to be provided with the Required Documents (as defined in Section 2.1), as well as upon [Reviewer] having direct contact with Client (and/or the Sponsor, where directed by Client) regarding questions and documents necessary to complete its review of the Accounts and Receivables.
Client expressly acknowledges and agrees that [Reviewer] is performing the Services as an independent contractor, and [Reviewer] will operate independently and without undue influence from any beneficial owner or holder of the securities issued by the Trust or the parties hereto, including the Client. In furtherance of the foregoing, Client acknowledges and agrees that [Reviewer]’s Test findings are solely based on [Reviewer]’s independent assessment of the Tests (as defined below), and are independent of the Client’s or any investors’ analysis. For avoidance of doubt, Client agrees that [Reviewer] is not responsible for determining whether noncompliance with any representation is a breach of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
2. | Scope of Services. |
2.1 Data Required to Perform Services.
Upon receipt of an Asset Representations Review start notice as described in the Series 201[ ] – [ ] Indenture Supplement, Client will provide the list of Accounts and Receivables subject to the Asset Representations Review. [Reviewer] is not required to verify that the triggers needed to initiate an Asset Representations Review were met, to determine which Accounts and Receivables are subject to an Asset Representations Review, to verify the accuracy or completeness of the list of Accounts and Receivables subject to the Asset Representations Review, or whether the required percentage of Noteholders of the Series 201[ ] – [ ] has voted to direct an Asset Representations Review under the Series 201[ ] – [ ] Indenture Supplement, and is entitled to conclusively rely on the information in any review start notice delivered by the Client to [Reviewer]. [Reviewer] will not start an Asset Representations Review until an Asset Representations Review start notice is received, and will not take any action or cause any other party to take any action under any of the Basic Documents to enforce any remedies for breaches of representations or warranties about the Accounts and Receivables.
For all Accounts and Receivables subject to the Asset Representations Review, Client will provide [Reviewer] with or access to the documents or information (the “Required Documents”) identified in the Agreed Upon Procedures for the Trust as set forth on Attachment 1 (the “AUPs”) for each representation test (collectively, the “Tests”).
Within [sixty (60)] days of the delivery of an Asset Representations Review start notice, Client will provide, or cause to be provided, [Reviewer] with or access to the Required Documents for all of the Accounts and Receivables.
[Reviewer] shall be entitled to rely in good faith, without independent investigation or verification, that the Required Documents are accurate and complete in all material respects, and not misleading in any material respect. Client acknowledges that belatedly delivered, incomplete, inaccurate or misleading information could materially affect the value, timing, completeness and outcome of the Asset Representations Review provided by [Reviewer] under this Agreement.
Client and [Reviewer] agree and understand that Client may redact from the Required Documents any PII (as defined in Section 6.10.1); provided that any such removed or redacted data will not change the meaning or usefulness of the files and information necessary to complete the Services. Client acknowledges that (i) [Reviewer] may, in its sole discretion, determine that certain Dealer files were incorrectly redacted (i.e, the redaction obscures information necessary to complete any Test) and may request additional information in order to complete the related review; and (ii) that [Reviewer] is not and will not be responsible if PII is published on the Form 10-D if the Form 10-D Summary Report provided by [Reviewer] did not include PII.
Unless otherwise specified in an amendment to this Agreement, the Services to be provided by [Reviewer] are described as follows:
2.2 Set-up Activities.
Upon execution of this Agreement, [Reviewer] will build the AUPs into its system. To manage the Tests, [Reviewer] will leverage a business process management (“BPM”) system which provides systematic control over each step in the review process and ensures consistency and repeatability among the reviews. The BPM system allows for each individual Account and Receivable review to be tracked and stored within a database.
Test criteria for each representation and [Reviewer]’s review processes are loaded into the BPM system and are accessible by [Reviewer]’s file review, quality control specialist and management staff. Test criteria are consistently applied against each Account and Receivable, as applicable to the Test, to assess that all requirements are tested. Inputs from the review at the Test level are stored and tracked allowing for process transparency, quality control and results reporting.
2.3 Asset Representations Review.
For reviews of each Account and Receivable, [Reviewer] will perform the Tests, as outlined in the AUPs and described in Attachment 1. [Reviewer] will complete the Asset Representations Review of each Account and Receivable within [sixty (60)] days of receiving the Required Documents.
The Asset Representations Review period may be extended by up to an additional [thirty (30)] days if the Asset Representations Reviewer requests missing documents, information, or clarifications as described in Sections 2.3.3 and 2.3.4.
The Asset Representations Review is not designed to determine any of the following:
• | Reason for downgrade; |
• | Creditworthiness of the dealer, either at the time of the Asset Representations Review or at the origination date; |
• | Overall quality of any Account or Receivable; |
• | Whether the Servicer has serviced any Account or Receivable in compliance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement; |
• | Whether noncompliance with the representations or warranties constitutes a breach of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; or |
• | To establish cause, materiality or recourse for any Test. |
The parties confirm that the Asset Representations Reviewer is not responsible for any obligations not set forth herein, including without limitation (a) reviewing the Accounts and Receivables for compliance with the representations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except as described in this Agreement, or (b) determining whether noncompliance with the representations constitutes a breach of the provisions of any of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

2.3.1 | Tests. Based on the AUPs, [Reviewer] will review the Required Documents to determine whether, for each Account and Receivable, there was (a) evidence that the applicable Test for such Account or Receivable was satisfied, (b) evidence that the applicable Test for such Account or Receivable was not satisfied, or (c) if the Test could not be completed as a result of missing or insufficient Required Documents for an Account or a Receivable. Each Test will be performed individually. |
[Reviewer] may, at its sole discretion, review additional information that is not required for the Asset Representations Review as defined by the AUPs, but it is not required to do so.
2.3.2 | Missing Documents. [Reviewer] will complete the Asset Representations Review of each Account and Receivable only using documentation or information that is made available by or on behalf of Client. Upon receipt of the Required Documents, [Reviewer] will complete an initial document inventory to verify there are no systemic documentation errors, including but not limited to consistently missing or incomplete information in each Dealer file even though there may still be instances where certain pieces of information for an individual Account or Receivable are missing or incomplete. Once [Reviewer] has confirmed that a sufficient number of the Required Documents is available to conduct its review, it will commence the Services. In instances where a Required Document is not accessible, clearly unidentifiable or illegible, [Reviewer] will request that Client or Sponsor provide an updated copy of such Required Document. Client must provide, or cause to be provided, missing documents to [Reviewer] within [fifteen (15)] days of notification by [Reviewer]. In the event a missing document is not provided within such timeframe, [Reviewer] file review staff will categorize the results of the Testing as ‘Unsatisfied Test – Missing Required Documents” and note that such documentation is missing. |
2.3.3 | Clarifications. Following [Reviewer]’s delivery of the Preliminary Reports (as defined below) to Client as outlined in Section 3, Client or Sponsor may, in their discretion, submit additional information and clarifications to [Reviewer] which [Reviewer] will analyze and consider in preparing its Final Report (as defined below). Client must provide, or cause to be provided, additional information and clarifications to [Reviewer] within [fifteen (15)] days of notification by [Reviewer]. In the event additional information or clarifications are not provided within this timeframe, [Reviewer] will consider the Preliminary Reports final. |
2.3.4 | Completion of Review for Certain Review Accounts or Receivables. Following the delivery of the list of Account and Receivables to be reviewed and before the delivery of a Preliminary Report or the Final Report by [Reviewer], the Servicer, the Sponsor or the Client may notify [Reviewer] if an Account or Receivable is paid in full or repurchased by the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01(c) or 4.02(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,Section 3.1(c) of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, or otherwise. On receipt of notice, [Reviewer] will terminate all Tests of such Receivable and the review of such Receivable will be categorized as a Satisfied Test. |
2.3.5 | Termination of Review. If an Asset Representations Review is in process and the publicly registered Notes will be paid in full on the next Distribution Date pursuant to Section 7.01of the Series 201[ ] – [ ] Indenture Supplement, the Client will notify [Reviewer] no less than ten days before the applicable Distribution Date on which such Notes will be paid in full and [Reviewer] will terminate the Asset Representations Review immediately and have no obligation to deliver any related Preliminary Reports or Final Reports. |
