The guarantee referred to in clause (y) of the preceding sentence shall be subject to the Rating Agency Condition.

Funds deposited in a Trust Account on a day which immediately precedes a Distribution Date upon the maturity of any Eligible Investments are not required to be invested overnight.

Section 5.02 Collections. The Servicer shall remit within two Business Days of receipt thereof to the Collection Account all payments by or on behalf of the Obligors with respect to the Receivables (other than Purchased Receivables) and all Liquidation Proceeds, both as collected during the Collection Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as (i) remains the Servicer, (ii) no Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii)(x) maintains a short-term rating of at least A-1 by Standard & Poor’s and P-1 by Moody’s (and for five Business Days following a reduction in either such rating) or (y) prior to ceasing daily remittances, the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied (and any conditions or limitations imposed by the Rating Agencies in connection therewith are complied with), the Servicer may remit such collections with respect to the preceding calendar month to the Collection Account on a less frequent basis, but in no event later than the Payment Determination Date immediately preceding each Distribution Date. For purposes of this Article V the phrase “payments by or on behalf of Obligors” shall mean payments made with respect to the Receivables by Persons other than the Servicer.

Section 5.03 Application of Collections. All collections for the Collection Period shall be applied by the Servicer as follows:

With respect to each Receivable (other than a Purchased Receivable), payments by or on behalf of the Obligor shall be applied first, in the case of Precomputed Receivables, to reduce Outstanding Precomputed Advances as described in Section 5.04(a) and, in the case of Simple Interest Receivables, to reduce Outstanding Simple Interest Advances to the extent described in Section 5.04(b). Next, any excess shall be applied, in the case of Precomputed Receivables, to the Scheduled Payment and, in the case of Simple Interest Receivables, to interest and principal in accordance with the Simple Interest Method. With respect to Precomputed Receivables, any remaining excess shall be added to the Payahead Balance, and shall be applied to prepay the Precomputed Receivable, but only if the sum of such excess and the previous Payahead Balance shall be sufficient to prepay the

Receivable in full. Otherwise, any such remaining excess payments shall constitute a Payahead and shall increase the Payahead Balance.

If the Servicer is required to return a Payahead to the related Obligor, the amount to be returned shall be retained by the Servicer from collections on the Receivables allocable to principal and paid by the Servicer to such Obligor.

Section 5.04 Advances. (a) As of the close of business on the last day of each Collection Period, if the payments by or on behalf of the Obligor on a Precomputed Receivable (other than a Purchased Receivable) shall be less than the Scheduled Payment, the Payahead Balance shall be applied by the Servicer to the extent of the shortfall and such Payahead Balance shall be reduced accordingly. Next, the Servicer shall advance any remaining shortfall (such amount, a “Precomputed Advance”), to the extent that the Servicer, at its sole discretion, shall determine that the Precomputed Advance shall be recoverable from the Obligor, the Purchase Amount, Liquidation Proceeds or proceeds of any other Precomputed Receivables. With respect to each Precomputed Receivable, the Precomputed Advance shall increase Outstanding Precomputed Advances. Outstanding Precomputed Advances shall be reduced by subsequent payments by or on behalf of the Obligor, collections of Liquidation Proceeds in respect of such Precomputed Receivables or payments of the Purchase Amount with respect to such Precomputed Receivables.

If the Servicer shall determine that an Outstanding Precomputed Advance with respect to any Precomputed Receivable shall not be recoverable as aforesaid, the Servicer shall be reimbursed from any collections made on other Precomputed Receivables in the Trust and Outstanding Precomputed Advances with respect to such Precomputed Receivables shall be reduced accordingly.

(b) As of the close of business on the last day of each Collection Period, the Servicer shall advance an amount equal to the amount of interest due on the Simple Interest Receivables at their respective APR’s for the related Collection Period (assuming the Simple Interest Receivables pay on their respective due dates) minus the amount of interest actually received on the Simple Interest Receivables during the related Collection Period (such amount, a “Simple Interest Advance”). With respect to each Simple Interest Receivable, the Simple Interest Advance shall increase Outstanding Simple Interest Advances. If such calculation results in a negative number, an amount equal to such negative number shall be paid to the Servicer and the amount of Outstanding Simple Interest Advances shall be reduced by such amount. In addition, in the event that a Simple Interest Receivable becomes a Liquidated Receivable, Liquidation Proceeds with respect to such Simple Interest Receivable attributable to accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not including interest for the then current Collection Period) shall be paid to the Servicer to reduce Outstanding Simple Interest Advances, but only to the extent of any Outstanding Simple Interest Advances.

Section 5.05 Additional Deposits. The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account on the Payment Determination Date for the related Collection Period the aggregate Advances pursuant to Section 5.04. To the extent that the Servicer fails to make a Simple Interest Advance pursuant to Section 5.04(b) on the date required, the Servicer shall notify the Indenture Trustee to withdraw such amount (or, if determinable, such portion of such amount as does not represent advances for delinquent interest) from the Reserve Account and deposit such amount in the Collection Account. The Servicer and the Company shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account the aggregate Purchase Amount with respect to Purchased Receivables and the Servicer shall deposit therein all amounts to be paid under Section 9.01. The Servicer will deposit the aggregate Purchase Amount with respect to Purchased Receivables when such obligations are due, unless the Servicer shall not be required to make daily deposits pursuant to Section 5.02. All such other deposits shall be made on the Payment Determination Date for the related Collection Period.

Section 5.06 Distributions. (a) So long as (i) the long-term unsecured indebtedness of the Servicer is rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s or (ii) the Rating Agency Condition is otherwise satisfied, the Servicer will be entitled to receive the payment of the Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection Period (and all unpaid Servicing Fees from prior Collection Periods) at the beginning of each Collection Period from payments on the Receivables received during such Collection Period.

(G) to the Reserve Account, the portion, if any, of the Total Distribution Amount remaining after the application of Section 5.06(a) and clauses (A) through (F).

(ii) On each Distribution Date subsequent to any reduction or withdrawal by any Rating Agency of its rating of any Class of Notes, unless such rating has been restored, if the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account (taking into account any deposits therein pursuant to Section 5.06(b) and withdrawals therefrom on such date pursuant to Section 5.07(c), (d) or (e)) is greater than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date, then the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to include the amount of such excess in the Noteholders’ Monthly Principal Distribution Amount and to deposit the amount of such excess (up to the amount of cash or cash equivalents in the Reserve Account) to the Collection Account for deposit to the Note Distribution Account for distribution to Noteholders as an accelerated payment of principal on such Distribution Date; provided, that the amount of such deposit shall not exceed the outstanding principal balance of the Notes after giving effect to all other payments of principal to be made on such date.

(c) If the Servicer determines pursuant to Section 5.04 that it is required to make an Advance on a Payment Determination Date and does not do so from its own funds, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to withdraw funds from the Reserve Account and deposit them in the Collection Account to cover any shortfall. Such payment shall be deemed to have been made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.04 for purposes of making distributions pursuant to this Agreement, but shall not otherwise satisfy the Servicer’s obligation to deliver the amount of the Advances, and the Servicer shall within two Business Days replace any funds in the Reserve Account so used.

Default

Section 8.01 Servicer Default. If any one of the following events (a “Servicer Default”) shall occur and be continuing:

(a) any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or the Certificate Distribution Account any required payment or to direct the Indenture Trustee to make any required distributions therefrom, which failure continues unremedied for a period of three Business Days after written notice of such failure is received by the Servicer from the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or after discovery of such failure by an officer of the Servicer; or

(b) failure by the Servicer or the Company, as the case may be, duly to observe or to perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of the Servicer or the Company (as the case may be) set forth in this Agreement or any other Basic Document, which failure shall (i) materially and adversely affect the rights of Certificateholders or Noteholders and (ii) continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (A) to the Servicer or the Company (as the case may be) by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or (B) to the Servicer or the Company (as the case may be), and to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Notes or Certificates, as applicable, evidencing not less than 25% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes or 25% of the outstanding Certificate Balance; or

(c) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Company, the Servicer or the Company; then, and in each and every case, so long as the Servicer Default shall not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, by notice then given in writing to the Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee if given by the Noteholders) may terminate all the rights and obligations (other than the obligations set forth in Section 7.02 hereof) of the Servicer under this Agreement. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificates or the Receivables or otherwise, shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee or such successor Servicer as may be appointed under Section 8.02; and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, for the benefit of the predecessor 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 related documents, or otherwise.

In the event of the Servicer’s termination hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a successor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in form acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. In the event that a successor Servicer has not been appointed at the time when the predecessor Servicer has ceased to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section, the Indenture Trustee without further action shall automatically be appointed the successor Servicer and shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture Trustee shall, if it shall be legally unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established institution, having a net worth of not less than $100,000,000 and whose regular business shall include the servicing of automotive receivables, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement.

Certificateholders, waive in writing any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from any of the Trust Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement.

(a) As of the last day of any Collection Period immediately preceding a Distribution Date as of which the then outstanding Pool Balance is 10% or less of the Original Pool Balance and the Class A-1 Notes have been paid in full, the Servicer shall have the option to purchase the Owner Trust Estate, other than the Trust Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account; provided, however, that, unless Moody’s agrees otherwise, the Servicer may not effect any such purchase if the rating of the Servicer’s long-term debt obligations is less than Baa3 by Moody’s, unless the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such purchase would not constitute a fraudulent conveyance. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall deposit pursuant to Section 5.05 in the Collection Account an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables (including defaulted Receivables), plus the appraised value of any such other property held by the Trust other than the Trust Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account, such value to be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, and shall succeed to all interests in and to the Trust.

(b) Upon any sale of the assets of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Trust Agreement, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to deposit the proceeds from such sale after all payments and reserves therefrom have been made (the “Insolvency Proceeds”) in the Collection Account. On the Distribution Date on which the Insolvency Proceeds are deposited in the Collection Account (or, if such proceeds are not so deposited on a Distribution Date, on the Distribution Date immediately following such deposit), the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to make the following deposits (after the application on such Distribution Date of the Total Distribution Amount and funds on deposit in the Reserve Account pursuant to Sections 5.06 and 5.07) from the Insolvency Proceeds and any funds remaining on deposit in the Reserve Account (including the proceeds of any sale of investments therein as described in the following sentence):

(i) to the Note Distribution Account, any portion of the Noteholders’ Interest Distributable Amount not otherwise deposited into the Note Distribution Account on such Distribution Date;

(ii) to the Note Distribution Account, the outstanding principal balance of the Notes (after giving effect to the reduction in the outstanding principal balance of the Notes to result from the deposits made in the Note Distribution Account on such Distribution Date and on prior Distribution Dates);

(iii) to the Certificate Distribution Account, any portion of the Certificateholders’ Interest Distributable Amount not otherwise deposited into the Certificate Distribution Account on such Distribution Date; and

(iv) to the Certificate Distribution Account, the Certificate Balance after giving effect to the reduction in

the Certificate Balance to result from the deposits made in the Certificate Distribution Account on such Distribution Date).

Any investments on deposit in the Reserve Account or Note Distribution Account which will not mature on or before such Distribution Date shall be sold by the Indenture Trustee at such time as will result in the Indenture Trustee receiving the proceeds from such sale not later than the Payment Determination Date preceding such Distribution Date. Any Insolvency Proceeds remaining after the deposits described above shall be paid to the Company.

(c) As described in Article IX of the Trust Agreement, notice of any termination of the Trust shall be given by the Servicer to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee as soon as practicable after the Servicer has received notice thereof.

(d) Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the Certificateholders will succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder other than Section 5.07(b) and the Owner Trustee will succeed to the rights of, and assume the obligations of, the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.
