(19) Year 2000 Compliance.
(1) It has (a) initiated a review and assessment of all
areas within its and each of its Subsidiaries' business and operations
(including those affected by suppliers, vendors and customers) that
could be adversely affected by the "Year 2000 Problem" (that is, the
risk that computer applications used by it or any of its Subsidiaries
(or suppliers, vendors and customers) may be unable to recognize and
perform properly date-sensitive functions involving certain dates prior
to and any date after December 31, 1999), (b) developed a plan and
timeline for addressing the Year 2000 Problem on a timely basis, and (c)
to date, implemented that plan in accordance with that timetable. Based
on the foregoing, it believes that all computer applications (including
those of its suppliers, vendors and customers) that are material to its
or any of its Subsidiaries' business and operations are reasonably
expected on a timely basis to be able to perform properly date-sensitive
functions for all dates before and after January 1, 2000 (that is, be
"Year 2000 Compliant"), except to the extent that a failure to do so
could not be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on it
or on the Program, or result in a Event of Default.
(2) It (a) has completed a review and assessment of all
computer applications (including, but not limited to those of its
suppliers, vendors, customers, and any third party servicers), which are
related to or involved in the origination, collection, management or
servicing of the Purchased Contracts (the "Receivables Systems") and
(ii) has determined that such Receivable Systems are Year 2000 Compliant
or will be Year 2000 Compliant on or before December 31, 1999 and
thereafter.
(3) The costs of all assessment, remediation, testing and
integration related to its plan for becoming Year 2000 Compliant will
not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or
operations.
SECTION 1.9. Representations and Warranties of the Seller Concerning
Contracts. On each Purchase Date the Seller represents and warrants to Recco,
the Surety Provider and the Funding Agent as follows:
(1) Eligible Contract. Each Contract to be sold by it on such day is
an Eligible Contract.
10
15
(2) Liens. Each Contract to be sold by it on such day is owned by it
free and clear of any Lien or claim of any kind or any offset and, upon transfer
to Recco pursuant to this Agreement, Recco will acquire a valid ownership
interest in each Purchased Contract free and clear of any Lien or claim of any
kind or any offset and no effective financing statement or other instrument
similar in effect covering any such Purchased Contract shall at any time be on
file in any recording office except those relating to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby.
(3) Compliance with Laws. Each Contract to be sold by it on such day
complies with all laws and regulations applicable thereto, including, without
limitation, all consumer credit laws.
(4) Enforceable Obligations. Each Contract to be sold by it on such
day is in full force and effect and represents a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Obligor enforceable against the Obligor in accordance with its
terms (except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the
enforceability of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable
principles whether considered in proceedings in equity or at law) and
constitutes "chattel paper" under the UCC in effect in the state in which the
principal place of business of the Seller is located.
(5) Valid Sale. The sale pursuant to this Agreement by the Seller
and the purchase by Recco of the Purchased Contracts on such Purchase Date
constitutes and will constitute a valid sale of such Purchased Contracts and the
other Collateral and the proceeds thereof, which sale is and will be enforceable
against the Seller and all existing and future creditors of the Seller and all
subsequent purchasers from the Seller or Recco of any of the Purchased
Contracts. Upon the filing of the financing statements described in Section
4.1(o) with the Secretary of State of the State of California evidencing the
sale of the Purchased Contracts to Recco and, in the case of Purchased Contracts
hereafter created and the proceeds thereof, upon the sale, transfer and
assignment thereof to Recco, Recco shall have a first priority perfected
ownership interest in the Purchased Contracts and the other Collateral.
(6) Credit and Collection Policy. The Credit and Collection Policy
has been complied with in all respects with respect to each Contract to be sold
by it on such day and no change has been made in the character of its business
or (except to the extent required by law and of which the Surety Provider and
the Funding Agent have received written notice prior to the applicable Purchase
Date) in the Credit and Collection Policy, which change could, in either case,
impair the collectibility of any Purchased Contract.
11
16
(7) Contract Information. The Contract Information delivered by the
Seller to Recco (if the Seller is the Servicer) or by the Seller to the Servicer
(if the Seller is not the Servicer) with respect to each Purchased Contract on
such Purchase Date is true and correct.
(8) Inspections. Each Contract that is not originated by a Vehicle
Dealer has been inspected by CSI Escrow Document Services, Inc., the Servicer or
any other inspection company reasonably acceptable to the Funding Agent and the
Surety Provider ("Inspector"), and the Inspector has issued a written inspection
report (the "Vehicle Condition Report") describing the Vehicle and the equipment
in the Vehicle, confirming the vehicle identification number and certifying that
the Vehicle is in good repair.
(9) Repossessed Vehicles. As of the last day of any month, the
aggregate Outstanding Balance of Purchased Contracts secured by Vehicles
previously repossessed by the Seller (each, a "Repossessed Vehicle") shall not
exceed 1% of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Purchased Contracts then
financed by the Lenders.
(10) Documentation. (A) All documents used by the Seller in
connection with the purchase or origination of Contracts (including, without
limitation, any security agreement, loan contract or promissory note), and all
certificates of title and entries in the Paperless Title System for Vehicles
securing Contracts use the following words to identify the lender, secured party
or obligee: (i) "Onyx Acceptance Corporation" or some abbreviation thereof which
unmistakably identifies the Seller as secured party or (ii) "ABNI, Inc." or
"C.U. Acceptance Corporation"; provided, however, that the name "ABNI, Inc." or
"C.U. Acceptance Corporation" may only be used in such documents with respect to
Contracts in a given state to the extent that an opinion of counsel, addressed
to the Surety Provider and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Surety Provider, shall be delivered to the Surety Provider with respect to any
state where the Outstanding Balance of all Contracts, in all facilities for
which the Surety Provider has issued an insurance policy and which have Obligors
with mailing addresses in such state and for which the related certificates of
title and/or entries in the related Paperless Title System have the secured
party, lender or obligee named as "ABNI, Inc." or "C.U. Acceptance Corporation,"
exceeds $350,000 in the aggregate for such state.
(11) Contract Files. It has delivered to Recco the Files relating to
each Contract sold to Recco on such Purchase Date; provided, however, that as to
any Purchased Contract, if (a) as evidenced by an opinion of counsel delivered
to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Funding Agent and the Surety
Provider, (x) an optical image or other representation of the Files is
enforceable in the relevant
12
17
jurisdictions to the same extent as the original of such document and (y) such
optical image or other representation does not impair the ability of an owner of
such Contract to transfer its interest in such Contract, and (b) the retention
of such documents in such format will not result in a reduction of the then
current rating of the transaction and PARCO, without regard to the Note Policy,
such optical image or other representation may be held by the Servicer, as
custodian for PARCO in lieu of the Files.
SECTION 1.10. Covenants of Seller. The Seller covenants and agrees with
Recco that so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect:
(1) Corporate Existence. It will preserve and maintain its corporate
existence, rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its
incorporation, and qualify and remain qualified and in good standing as a
foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the failure to maintain such
existence, rights, franchises, privileges and qualifications could affect (i)
the rights or interests of Recco hereunder, (ii) the collectibility of any

the Subordinated Interest on such day; provided, however, that the principal
amount of the Subordinated Note shall be fixed on and not be recalculated after
the Termination Date; provided, further, that in no event shall the principal
amount of the Subordinated Note calculated pursuant to the Daily Report at any
time exceed the Required Overcollateralization Amount.
(1) Interest on the principal amount of the Subordinated Note shall
accrue at a rate set forth in the Subordinated Note. Principal and interest
payments on the Subordinated Note may be made to the extent permitted by the
Security Agreement. Principal amounts outstanding on the Subordinated Note shall
increase concurrently with the payment of the Purchase Price pursuant to the
terms of Section 2.3(a)(ii) hereof. Principal payments on the Subordinated Note
shall become payable only upon the release of Collateral by the Funding Agent
pursuant to Section 21(b) of the Security Agreement. Except to the extent
permitted by the Security Agreement, the Seller agrees not to ask, demand, xxx
for or take or receive from Recco in cash or other property, by set-off or in
any other manner, (including, without limitation, from or by way of the
Collateral), payment of all or any part of the Subordinated Note.
24
29
(2) The Seller agrees upon any distribution of all or any of the
assets of Recco to creditors of Recco upon the dissolution, winding up, total or
partial liquidation, arrangement, reorganization, adjustment, protection,
relief, or composition of Recco or its debts, any payment or distribution of any
kind (including, without limitation, cash, property, securities and any payment
or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of
any other Debt of Recco being subordinated to the payment of the Subordinated
Note) in respect of the Subordinated Note that otherwise would be payable or
deliverable upon or with respect to the Subordinated Note, directly or
indirectly, by set-off or in any other manner, including, without limitation,
from or by way of the Collateral, shall be paid or delivered directly to the
Funding Agent for application (in the case of cash) to or as Collateral (in the
case of non-cash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment in full
of, the Obligations (other than the Subordinated Note) until the Obligations
shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Funding Agent is
irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of the
Seller or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, xxx for, collect
and receive every payment or distribution referred to in the preceding sentence
and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take
such other action (including, without limitation, voting the Subordinated Note
and enforcing any security interest or other lien securing payment of the
Subordinated Note) as the Funding Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the
exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interest of the Secured Parties.
The Seller shall duly and promptly take such action as the Funding Agent or the
Surety Provider may request to (i) collect the Subordinated Note for the account
of the Secured Parties and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in
respect of the Subordinated Note, (ii) execute and deliver to the Funding Agent
such powers of attorney, assignments or other instruments as the Funding Agent
may request in order to enable the Funding Agent to enforce any and all claims
with respect to, and any security interests and other liens securing payment of,
the Subordinated Note, (iii) collect and receive any and all payments or
distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the
Subordinated Note.
(3) All payments or distributions upon or with respect to the
Subordinated Note that are received by the Seller contrary to the provisions of
the Operative Documents shall be received in trust for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by the
Seller and shall be forthwith paid over to the Funding Agent in the same form as
so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash)
to, or held as Collateral (in the case of non-cash property or securities) for
the payment or prepayment in full of, the Obligations (other than the
Subordinated Note) until the Obligations shall have
25
30
been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Seller agrees that no payment or
distribution to the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the
Subordinated Note shall entitle the Seller to exercise any rights of subrogation
in respect thereof against Recco until the Obligations (other than the
Subordinated Note) and all principal and interest under the Seller Note shall
have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The Seller and Recco hereby waive
promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to
any of the Obligations and any requirement that the Funding Agent protect,
secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien on any property subject
thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against Recco or any other
Person or any Collateral.
(4) The Subordinated Note is secured by the Collateral pursuant to
the Subordinated Security Agreement, subject to the prior lien of the Funding
Agent under the Security Agreement. No payments may be received, directly or
indirectly, by the Seller (and if received, the Seller agrees to return such
payments to Recco) on the Subordinated Note unless Recco has paid all amounts
required pursuant to the Security Agreement to be paid prior to any payments in
respect of the Subordinated Note.
(5) The Seller agrees and confirms that the Funding Agent shall not
have any duty whatsoever to the Seller as holder of the Subordinated Note and
that the Funding Agent shall not be liable to the Seller for any action taken or
omitted to be taken with respect to the Subordinated Note.
(6) Prior to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the other
Obligations, the Seller will not seek to collect any amounts owing under the
Subordinated Note in any manner or exercise or enforce any of its rights under
the Subordinated Security Agreement.
(7) The Seller and Recco further agree that at no time hereafter
will any part of the indebtedness represented by the Subordinated Note be
represented by any negotiable instruments or other writings except the
Subordinated Note.
(8) The Seller and Recco waive notice of and consent to the creation
of the Loans and any of the other Obligations, any extensions granted or other
action taken by the Lenders, the Surety Provider and the Funding Agent with
respect thereto, the taking or releasing of Collateral or any obligors or
guarantors for the payment thereof, and the releasing of the Seller or any other
subordinated creditors. No failure or delay by the Lenders, the Surety Provider
or the Funding
26
31
Agent to exercise any right granted herein, or in any other agreement or by law
shall constitute a waiver of such right or of any other right.
(9) Recco and the Seller agree to execute and deliver to the
Lenders, the Surety Provider and the Funding Agent such additional documents and
to take such further actions as the Lenders, the Surety Provider or the Funding
Agent may hereafter require.
(10) The terms of the Subordinated Note and the subordination
effected hereby, and the rights of the Lenders, the Surety Provider and the
Funding Agent and the obligations of the Seller and Recco arising hereunder,
shall not be affected, modified or impaired in any manner or to any extent by

pursuant hereto, which shall have been false or incorrect in any
material respect when made or deemed made;
28
33
(3) the failure by the Seller to comply with any applicable
law, rule or regulation with respect to any Purchased Contract or the
nonconformity of any Purchased Contract with any such applicable law,
rule or regulation;
(4) the failure to vest and maintain vested in Recco or to
transfer to Recco, legal and equitable title to and ownership of, an

Purchase of such Contract or at any time thereafter;
(5) the failure to file, in a timely manner, financing
statements or other similar instruments or documents required under the
UCC in effect in the state in which the Seller's principal place of
business is located or the location of the Collateral as required under
such law or other applicable laws with respect to any Contracts sold to
Recco, whether at the time of any Purchase or at any subsequent time;
(6) any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or
reduction of liability whatsoever under any Purchased Contract, arising
out of a breach by the Seller of any obligation under such Purchased
Contract or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or
liability at any time owing to or in favor of any other Person from the
Seller (it being understood that all such obligations of the Seller
shall be and remain enforceable against and only against the Seller and
shall not be enforceable against Recco);
(7) any failure of the Seller to perform its duties or
obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement;
(8) any products liability claim or personal injury or
property damage suit or other similar or related claim or action of

Servicer is the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller) to be duly
qualified to do business, to be in good standing or to have filed
appropriate fictitious or assumed name registration documents in any
jurisdiction;
(11) the commingling of Collections at any time with other
funds;
(12) the failure of any Lock-Box Bank or the Clearing Account
Bank to remit any amounts held in its Lock-Box or in the Clearing
Account as the case may be, whether by reason of the exercise of setoff
rights or otherwise; and
(13) any failure by the Seller to be Year 2000 Compliant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Recco hereby agrees that under no circumstances
shall the Seller be liable for, or required to pay any Indemnified Amount, other
than as set forth in Section 4.5, resulting from, (i) the credit risk of an
Obligor, or for which payment therefor would otherwise constitute recourse to
the Seller for an uncollectible Contract or Contracts or (ii) gross negligence
or willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Party to which such
Indemnified Amount would otherwise be due.
(2) Any Indemnified Amount due hereunder shall be payable on demand.
SECTION 1.19. Rights of Inspection. Recco and its representatives and
assigns, including without limitation the Funding Agent and the Surety Provider,
shall at all times have full and free access during normal business hours (a) to
the Seller's officers and independent accountants in order to discuss the
affairs, finances and accounts of the Seller insofar as they relate to the
Purchased Contracts, the related Files and/or the Vehicles and the transactions
contemplated hereby and (b) to all the books, correspondence and records of the
Seller insofar as they relate to the Purchased Contracts, the related Files
and/or the Vehicles and the transactions contemplated hereby, and Recco and its
representatives and assigns, including without limitation the Funding Agent and
the Surety Provider may examine the same, take extracts therefrom and make
photocopies thereof, and the Seller agrees to render to Recco, and its

with regard thereto. All such reasonable expenses of the Funding Agent and the
Surety Provider shall be for the account of the Seller and shall be provided for
or reimbursed upon presentment of an invoice requesting same.
ARTICLE VIII
THE SERVICER
SECTION 1.20. Appointment of Servicer. Recco hereby appoints the Seller
to act as servicer of the Purchased Contracts in the name of and on behalf of
Recco in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Seller hereby accepts
such appointment. The Servicer shall use reasonable care in performing its
duties as servicer hereunder and, without limiting the foregoing, shall service
the Purchased Contracts in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.
SECTION 1.21. Collections.
(1) On each Business Day, all Collections received in any Lock-Box
shall be transferred to the Clearing Account on the next Business Day. All
Collections received by the Servicer in any other manner shall be transferred to
the Clearing Account on the next Business Day following receipt and until so
transferred, the Servicer shall hold such cash and other items in trust for the
benefit of Recco. All Collections in the Clearing Account shall be transferred
to the Collection Account on the next Business Day after such Collections are
transferred into the Clearing Account.
(2) The Servicer will, at the Servicer's cost and expense and as
agent in the name of and on behalf of Recco, but subject at any time to the
right of Recco to direct and control, endeavor to collect, as and when the same
becomes due, all amounts owing on each Purchased Contract. In the event of
default by an Obligor under any Purchased Contract, the Servicer shall have the
power and authority, on behalf of Recco, to take such action in respect of such
Purchased Contract and the Vehicle related thereto as the Servicer, in the
absence of contrary instructions from Recco, may deem advisable, including the
power to sell such Purchased Contract. In the enforcement or collection of any
Purchased Contract, the Servicer shall be entitled to xxx thereon in its own
name or as agent for Recco, in either case, for the account of Recco.
31
36
(3) In the event the Servicer accepts in payment of any Purchased
Contract the taking of repossession of the Vehicle, the Servicer agrees to use
its reasonable efforts to resell such Vehicle for the account of Recco and shall
remit to Recco the gross sale proceeds thereof, net of any costs incurred by any
Person with respect to any such repossession and resale. Recco shall have no
obligation to take any action or commence any proceedings to realize upon any
Purchased Contract or to enforce any of its rights or remedies with respect
thereto. Any moneys collected by the Servicer pursuant to this subsection shall
be segregated by the Servicer, held in trust by the Servicer for Recco and shall
be remitted to the Collection Account on the Business Day of receipt thereof by
the Servicer.
SECTION 1.22. Maintenance of Records; Quarterly and Annual Reports.
(1) The books of account and other records pertaining to the
Purchased Contracts are the property of Recco. Recco agrees that the Servicer
shall hold such records as Recco's agent. The Servicer shall maintain all books
of account and other records pertaining to the Purchased Contracts in such form
as will enable Recco or the Funding Agent or their designees to determine at any
time the status of the Purchased Contracts. The Servicer will permit Recco, the
Surety Provider or the Funding Agent and any Person designated by Recco, the
Surety Provider or the Funding Agent, during regular business hours, to inspect,
audit, check and make abstracts from all books, accounts, records, or other
papers pertaining to such Purchased Contracts. From time to time, at the request
of Recco, the Surety Provider or the Funding Agent, the Servicer, at its own
expense, will deliver to Recco, the Surety Provider and the Funding Agent and
any Person designated by Recco, the Surety Provider or the Funding Agent any
records and invoices pertaining to the Purchased Contracts and evidence thereof
as Recco, the Surety Provider or the Funding Agent or such designee may deem
necessary to enable it to enforce its rights thereunder. In addition, at the
request of Recco, the Surety Provider or the Funding Agent after delivery of a
Servicer Termination Notice, the Servicer will deliver all such records and
invoices pertaining thereto (including bills of lading) and other evidence
thereof to any Person selected by the Funding Agent (acting at the direction of
the Controlling Party). Whether or not any such item is the property of Recco,
each computer record, invoice, ledger card, account record or other evidence of,
or record relating to, the Purchased Contracts maintained at the office of the
Servicer or the office of Seller, if requested by Recco, the Surety Provider or
the Funding Agent, will be marked as the Funding Agent or the Surety Provider
may direct. Upon request of the Funding Agent (acting at the direction of the
Controlling Party), the Servicer will segregate from all other Contracts then
owned or being serviced by the Servicer all documents relating to the Purchased
Contracts and will hold in trust (if
32
37
such document is not owned by Recco) and safely keep such documents in separate
filing cabinets or other suitable containers marked to show Recco's interest
with such legend as shall be specified by the Funding Agent (acting at the
direction of the Controlling Party) and maintained in such place or places as
shall be designated by the Funding Agent (acting at the direction of the
Controlling Party).
(2) The Servicer will deliver to Recco, the Surety Provider and the
Funding Agent and any Person designated by the Funding Agent and the Surety
Provider, within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Servicer, a
certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Servicer stating that (a) a review
of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding fiscal quarter and of its
performance under this Agreement was made under the supervision of the officer
signing such certificate and (b) based on such review, the Servicer has fully
performed all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such period
(including its obligations to prepare and deliver each Daily Report and Monthly
Report) in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, or, if there has been a
default in the performance of any such obligation, specifying each such default
known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.
(3) The Servicer, at its expense, will cause a firm of independent
public accountants satisfactory to the Funding Agent and the Surety Provider to
furnish a report (the "Annual Report") to Recco, the Surety Provider and the
Funding Agent and any Person designated by the Funding Agent, on or before March
31st of each year, beginning on March 31, 2000, stating that such firm has
examined certain documents and records relating to the servicing of the
Contracts during the preceding fiscal year and that such examination, which has
been conducted substantially in accordance with audit guides or audit programs
generally recognized to be applicable to audits of receivables similar to the
Contracts, has disclosed no items of noncompliance with the provisions of this
Agreement throughout such period which, in the opinion of such firm, are
material, except for such items of non-compliance as shall be set forth in such
report.
SECTION 1.23. Servicing Fee. On each Business Day, to the extent
provided for in the Security Agreement, as full compensation for its servicing
activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing
Fee.
SECTION 1.24. Resignation; Sub-Contracting.
(1) The obligation of the Servicer to service the Purchased
Contracts is personal to the Servicer and the parties recognize that another
Person
33
38
may not be qualified to perform such obligations. Accordingly, the Servicer's
obligation to service the Purchased Contracts hereunder shall be specifically
enforceable and shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances,
including, without limitation, after the occurrence and during the continuation
of any Servicer Termination Event hereunder; provided, however, that a Successor
Servicer may be appointed pursuant to Section 8.12 hereof.
(2) The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it as Servicer except upon determination that (i) the
performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under any
applicable law and (ii) there is no reasonable action which the Servicer could
take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under any such
applicable law. Any determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer
shall be evidenced as to clause (i) above by an opinion of counsel to such
effect delivered to Recco, the Surety Provider and the Funding Agent. Except to
the extent inconsistent with any such applicable law, no such resignation shall
become effective until a Successor Servicer shall have assumed the
responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer in accordance with Section 8.12
hereof.
(3) If the performance of its duties hereunder is no longer
permissible under applicable law or the cost of such performance is such that
its continuation as Servicer is not warranted as a financial matter, the
Servicer may, with the prior written consent of the Funding Agent and the Surety
Provider subcontract with any other Person to service, administer or collect the
Purchased Contracts, provided that the Person with whom the Servicer so
subcontracts shall not become the Servicer hereunder and the Servicer shall
remain liable for the performance of the duties and obligations of the Servicer
pursuant to the terms hereof.
SECTION 1.25. Termination. The Servicer's obligations under this
Agreement shall terminate upon the termination of the Funding Agreement;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall continue to be obligated to do all
things necessary to apply Collections on the Purchased Contracts that it
receives after such termination in the manner provided in this Agreement and to
perform its obligations hereunder with respect thereto. Upon termination of this
Agreement all authority and power granted to the Servicer under this Agreement
shall pass to and be vested in Recco. The Servicer shall transfer (i) its
electronic records relating to the Purchased Contracts to Recco in such
electronic form as Recco may reasonably request, (ii) all other records,
correspondence and documents to Recco in the manner and at such times as Recco
may reasonably request, (iii) at Recco's expense, upon the request of Recco,
notify all Obligors that the Servicer is no longer the Servicer, (iv) at Recco's
34
39
expense, take all such further action as Recco shall reasonably request to
effect the termination of the rights of the Servicer to conduct servicing
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to Recco of all authority
of the Servicer to (A) service Purchased Contracts as provided hereunder, and
(B) receive Collections which shall on the date of such termination be held by
the Servicer for deposit or which shall thereafter be received with respect to
any Purchased Contract.
SECTION 1.26. Delivery of Monthly Report. On each Determination Date,
the Servicer shall deliver to Recco, the Surety Provider and the Funding Agent,
no later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such Determination Date, a
report, substantially in the form of Exhibit I (the "Monthly Report"), together
with a certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit G (the "Servicer's
Certificate"), covering the Determination Period immediately preceding such
Determination Date.
SECTION 1.27. Daily Report. No later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time)
on each Purchase Date, the Servicer shall deliver a report, substantially in the
form of Exhibit H (the "Daily Report"), to Recco, the Surety Provider and the
Funding Agent, together with a Servicer's Certificate.
SECTION 1.28. [RESERVED]
SECTION 1.29. Servicer Termination Events. If any of the following
events (each a "Servicer Termination Event") shall have occurred and be
continuing:
(1) the Servicer shall fail to make any payment, transfer or deposit
required to be made hereunder within two Business Days of the date on which such
payment, transfer or deposit is due to be made;
(2) the Servicer shall fail to give any notice within three Business
Days after the same is required to be given hereunder;
(3) the Servicer shall fail to submit (i) a Monthly Report within
three Business Days of the day on which such report shall have been required to
be submitted, (ii) a Daily Report within one Business Day of the day on which
such report is required to be submitted or (iii) an Annual Report within 10 days
of the day on which such Annual Report shall have been required to be submitted;
(4) the Servicer shall fail to observe or perform any other covenant
or agreement applicable to it contained herein and such failure shall remain
unremedied for a period of 10 days;
35
40
(5) the Servicer shall enter a corporate transaction in breach of
the covenant at Section 4.4(f) hereof;
(6) any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by
the Servicer in this Agreement or in any certificate, financial statement or
other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall prove to have been
incorrect in any material respect when made;
(7) a Bankruptcy Event shall have occurred with respect to the
Servicer;
(8) an Event of Default shall have occurred;
then, the Controlling Party may, in its discretion, terminate the Servicer by
giving five Business Days notice thereof in writing to the Servicer and Seller
which notice shall state the effective date of such termination (a "Servicer
Termination Notice"). On and after the effective date stated in a Servicer
Termination Notice, the Controlling Party may, in its discretion, implement a
Complete Servicing Transfer.
SECTION 1.30. Servicer Termination. (a) After the Controlling Party
gives the Servicer a Servicer Termination Notice, (i) prior to the appointment
of a Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 8.12, the Controlling Party may
administer the administrative, servicing and collection functions of the
Servicer in any manner it deems fit, (ii) the Controlling Party shall, at any
time thereafter, be entitled to notify the Obligors on any Purchased Contracts
to make payment of amounts due thereunder directly to Recco or the Controlling
Party or as the Controlling Party may direct and (iii) the Servicer shall, at
its own expense, (A) if so requested by the Controlling Party, endorse each
instrument that is payable to the Servicer, if any, evidencing any Purchased
Contract to the Funding Agent in such manner as the Controlling Party shall
direct and (B) perform any and all acts and execute any and all documents as may
be reasonably requested by the Controlling Party in order to effect the purposes
of this Agreement. After receipt by the Servicer of a Servicer Termination
Notice, if the Controlling Party does not elect to replace the Servicer with a
Successor Servicer, the Controlling Party shall have the right to appoint a firm
of public accountants or any other Person the Controlling Party may choose, to
monitor the servicing of the Purchased Contracts by the Servicer and to furnish
to Recco, at the expense of the Servicer, such letters, certificates or reports
thereon as the Controlling Party shall reasonably request. The Servicer shall
cooperate with such firm in the subsequent monitoring of its servicing of the
36
41
Purchased Contracts pursuant to this Agreement and any fees and expenses in
connection therewith shall be paid by the Servicer.
(1) After receipt by the Servicer of a Servicer Termination Notice,
if the Controlling Party elects to appoint a Successor Servicer, then:
(1) On the date that a Successor Servicer shall have been
appointed by the Controlling Party pursuant to Section 8.12, all
authority and power of the then Servicer under this Agreement shall pass
to and be vested in such Successor Servicer, and, without limitation,
the Controlling Party is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and
deliver on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all
documents and other instruments upon the failure of the Servicer to
execute or deliver such documents or instruments, and (upon the failure
of the Servicer to cooperate) to do and accomplish all other acts or
things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such transfer
of servicing rights.
(2) The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Controlling
Party and the Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the
responsibilities and rights of the Servicer to conduct servicing
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to such Successor
Servicer of all authority of the Servicer to service the Purchased
Contracts provided for under this Agreement, including, without
limitation, all authority to receive Collections which shall on the date
of transfer be held by the Servicer for deposit, or which shall
thereafter be received with respect to the Purchased Contracts.
(3) The Servicer shall promptly transfer duplicate, back-up,
or original tapes, and all other electronic media constituting all of
its electronic records relating to the Purchased Contracts and records
relating to the Commercial Paper to the Successor Servicer in such
electronic form as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request and
shall promptly transfer to the Successor Servicer all other records,
correspondence and documents necessary for the continued servicing of
the Purchased Contracts in the manner and at such times as the Successor
Servicer shall reasonably request.
(4) At any time following the appointment of a Successor
Servicer, such Successor Servicer shall be authorized to take any and
all steps in the name of the previous Servicer and on behalf of the
37
42
previous Servicer necessary or desirable, in the determination of such
Successor Servicer, to collect all amounts due under any and all
Purchased Contracts, including, without limitation endorsing the name of
the previous Servicer on checks and other instruments representing
Collections, and enforcing the Purchased Contracts.
SECTION 1.31. Appointment of Successor Servicer. (a) On and after the
receipt by the Servicer of a Servicer Termination Notice, the Servicer shall
continue to perform all servicing functions under this Agreement until the later
of (i) the appointment of a Successor Servicer or (ii) the date specified in the
Servicer Termination Notice or otherwise specified by the Controlling Party in
writing or, if no such date is specified in the Servicer Termination Notice,
until a date mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and the Controlling Party. The
Controlling Party shall (as promptly as possible after the giving of a Servicer
Termination Notice) appoint a successor servicer (the "Successor Servicer") and
such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in
a form acceptable to the Controlling Party.
(1) Upon its appointment, the Successor Servicer shall be the
successor in all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions
under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and
provisions hereof, and all references in this Agreement to the Servicer shall be
deemed to refer to the Successor Servicer. Any Successor Servicer shall make all
representations and warranties that the Servicer makes hereunder.
(2) In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Controlling Party may, subject to the provisions of the Security Agreement, make
arrangements for the payment of the Servicing Fee to the Successor Servicer.

RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER.
THIS SUBORDINATED NOTE IS THE SUBORDINATED NOTE REFERRED TO IN THE SALE AND

BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE V OF THE SALE AND SERVICING AGREEMENT.
New York, New York
August 9, 1999
ONYX ACCEPTANCE RECEIVABLES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
("Recco"), hereby promises to pay to the order of ONYX ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation (the "Seller"), the principal amount of this Subordinated
Note, determined as described below, together with interest thereon at a rate
per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate + 6% in lawful money of the United States of
America. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the
meanings assigned to such terms in the Definitions List attached to the Sale and
Servicing Agreement dated as of August 9, 1999, between Recco and the Seller
(such agreement, as it may from time to time be amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified in accordance with its terms, the "Sale Agreement").
The principal amount of this Subordinated Note at any time shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3 of the Sale
Agreement. All principal of and interest on this Subordinated Note shall be due
and payable at
B-1
51
the times provided in the Sale Agreement, it being understood and agreed that,
except as provided in Section 5.3 of the Sale Agreement, no payments may be
made, directly or indirectly, on this Subordinated Note until all the
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. This Subordinated Note
is secured by the Collateral pursuant to the Subordinated Security Agreement
subject to the prior lien of the Funding Agent under the Security Agreement. No
payments may be received, directly or indirectly, by the Seller (and if
received, the Seller agrees to return such payments to Recco) on this
Subordinated Note unless Recco has paid all amounts required pursuant to the
Security Agreement to be paid prior to any payment in respect of this
Subordinated Note.
Payments of principal on this Subordinated Note shall be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to such account of the Seller as the
Seller may designate in writing.
This Subordinated Note is the Subordinated Note referred to in the Sale
Agreement, and is subordinate and junior in right of payment to all the
Obligations to the extent and in the manner provided in Section 5.3 of the Sale
Agreement and the holder by acceptance hereof agrees to be bound by all the
provisions of Section 5.3 of the Sale Agreement.
Recco hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice
of any kind whatsoever. The nonexercise by the holder of any of its rights
hereunder in any particular instance shall not constitute a waiver thereof in
that or any subsequent instance.
All amounts evidenced by this Subordinated Note and all payments and
prepayments of the principal hereof and the respective dates and maturity dates
thereof shall be endorsed by the holder hereof on Schedule 1 attached hereto and
made a part hereof or on a continuation thereof which shall be attached hereto
and made a part hereof, or otherwise recorded by such holder in its internal
records; provided, however, that the failure of the holder hereof to make such a
notation or any error in such a notation shall not affect the obligations of
Recco under this Subordinated Note.
It is the intention of Recco and the Seller to conform strictly to
applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby
would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the State of New
York and the laws of the United States of America), then, in that event,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any agreement entered into in
connection with this Subordinated Note, it is agreed as follows: (i) the
aggregate of all consideration that
B-2
52
constitutes interest, if any, under applicable law that is taken, reserved,
contracted for, charged or received under this Subordinated Note or any other
agreement or document executed in connection with this Subordinated Note shall
under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by
applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to other amounts due under this
Subordinated Note by the holder hereof (or if this Subordinated Note shall have
been paid in full, refunded to Recco); and (ii) in the event that maturity of
this Subordinated Note is accelerated for any reason, or in the event of any
required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes
interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable
law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Subordinated Note or
otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration
or prepayment and, if theretofore prepaid, shall be credited to other amounts
due under this Subordinated Note (or if this Subordinated Note shall have been
paid in full, refunded to Recco). In the event that applicable law provides for
a ceiling on the rate of interest, if any, chargeable hereunder, that ceiling
shall be the indicated rate ceiling.
The Seller agrees that it shall have no right to cause, by way of
acceleration or otherwise, any payment of principal hereunder to become due or
payable, prior to the times provided in the Security Agreement.
Each holder of this Note agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of
the Operative Documents, including, without limitation, the covenant that prior
to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of all
Commercial Paper issued, and all Loans made, by the Lenders and all other
Obligations under the Operative Documents, it will not institute against, or
join any other Person in instituting against, Recco any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other
similar proceeding under the law of the United States or any state of the United
States.
This Subordinated Note shall not be assigned, transferred, exchanged,
pledged, hypothecated, participated or otherwise conveyed, except with the prior
written consent of the Funding Agent and the Surety Provider.
