ARTICLE IV.
COVENANTS OF SELLER

(a) At or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have filed or caused to be filed a
UCC-1 financing statement, naming Seller as seller or debtor, naming Purchaser as purchaser
or secured party and describing the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property being sold
by it to Purchaser as collateral, with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware and in such other locations as Purchaser shall have required. From time to time
thereafter, Seller shall execute and file such financing statements and cause to be executed
and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be
required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of Purchaser under this
Agreement, of the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and of the Trust Collateral
Agent under the Indenture in the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property and in the
proceeds thereof. Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Purchaser, the Trust
Collateral Agent and the Insurer file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any
document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. In the event
that Seller fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, Purchaser, Issuer or the
Trust Collateral Agent may do so, at the expense of such Seller. In furtherance of the
foregoing, the Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser, the Issuer or the Trust Collateral
Agent to file a record or records (as defined in the applicable UCC), including, without
limitation, financing statements, in all jurisdictions and with all filing offices as each
may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security
interest granted to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.9 of this Agreement. Such financing
statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain
an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner
as such party may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to
ensure the perfection of the security interest in the collateral granted to the Purchaser
herein.
(b) Seller shall not change its name, identity, state of incorporation or corporate
structure in any manner that would, could or might make any financing
8
statement or continuation statement filed by Seller (or by Purchaser, Issuer or the
Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of Seller) in accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously
misleading within the meaning of §9-506 of the applicable UCC, unless they shall have given
Purchaser, Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days’ prior
written notice thereof, and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously
filed financing statements and continuation statements.
(c) Seller shall give Purchaser, the Issuer, the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default
shall not have occurred and be continuing) and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days’
prior written notice of any relocation that would result in a change of the location of the
debtor within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the applicable UCC. Seller shall at all times
maintain (i) each office from which it services Receivables within the United States of
America or Canada and (ii) its principal executive office within the United States of
America.

Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit (i) the reader thereof to know at

payments and recoveries made and payments owing (and the nature of each) and (ii)
reconciliation between payments or recoveries on (or with respect to) each Receivable and
the Principal Balance as of the Cutoff Date. Seller shall maintain its computer systems so
that, from and after the time of sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to Purchaser,
and the conveyance of the Receivables by Purchaser to the Issuer, Seller’s master computer
records (including archives) that shall refer to a Receivable indicate clearly that such
Receivable has been sold to Purchaser and has been conveyed by Purchaser to the Issuer.
Indication of the Issuer’s ownership of a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on
Seller’s computer systems when, and only when, the Receivable shall become a Purchased
Receivable or a Sold Receivable or shall have been paid in full or sold pursuant to the
terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(e) If at any xxxx Xxxxxx shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or
otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle receivables to any prospective
purchaser, lender or other transferee, Seller shall give to such prospective purchaser,
lender, or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored
from archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable (other
than a Purchased Receivable or a Sold Receivable), shall indicate clearly that such
Receivable has been sold to Purchaser, sold by Purchaser to Issuer, and is owned by the
Issuer.
SECTION 4.2 Other Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances hereunder, Seller
will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or
suffer to exist any Lien on the Receivables or the Other Conveyed Property or any interest therein,

ARTICLE V.
REPURCHASES
SECTION 5.1 Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach of Warranty. Upon the occurrence of
a Repurchase Event, Seller shall, unless the breach which is the subject of such Repurchase Event
shall have been cured in all material respects, repurchase the Receivable relating thereto from the
Issuer and, simultaneously with the repurchase of the Receivable, Seller shall deposit the Purchase
Amount in full, without deduction or offset, to the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.2 of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement. It is understood and agreed that, except as set forth in Section
6.1 hereof, the obligation of Seller to repurchase any Receivable, as to which a breach occurred
and is continuing, shall, if such obligation is fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against
Seller for such breach available to Purchaser, the Issuer, the Insurer, the Backup Servicer, the
Noteholders, the Certificateholder, the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of the Noteholders or the
Owner Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholder. The provisions of this Section 5.1 are intended
to grant the Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust Collateral Agent a direct right against Seller to
demand performance hereunder, and in connection therewith, Seller waives any requirement of prior
demand against Purchaser with respect to such repurchase obligation. Any such repurchase shall
take place in the manner specified in Section 3.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the
contrary, the obligation of Seller under this Section shall not terminate upon a termination of
Seller as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and shall be performed in accordance with
the terms hereof notwithstanding the failure of the Servicer or Purchaser to perform any of their
respective obligations with respect to such Receivable under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
In addition to the foregoing and notwithstanding whether the related Receivable shall have
been purchased by Seller, Seller shall indemnify the Issuer, the Trust Collateral Agent, the
Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer, the Noteholders and the
Certificateholder from and against all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities,
including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by
any of them as a result of third party claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to
such Repurchase Events.
SECTION 5.2 Reassignment of Purchased Receivables. Upon deposit in the Collection
Account of the Purchase Amount of any Receivable repurchased by Seller under Section 5.1 hereof,
Purchaser and the Issuer shall take such steps as may be reasonably requested by Seller in order to
assign to Seller all of Purchaser’s and the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to such
Receivable and all security and documents and all Other Conveyed Property conveyed to Purchaser and
the Issuer directly relating thereto, without recourse, representation or warranty, except as to
the absence of Liens created by or arising as a result of actions of Purchaser or the Issuer. Such
assignment shall be a sale and assignment outright, and not for
12
security. If, following the reassignment of a Purchased Receivable, in any enforcement suit
or legal proceeding, it is held that Seller may not enforce any such Receivable on the ground that
it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, Purchaser
and the Issuer shall, at the expense of Seller, take such steps as Seller deems reasonably
necessary to enforce the Receivable, including bringing suit in Purchaser’s or in the Issuer’s
name.
SECTION 5.3 Waivers. No failure or delay on the part of Purchaser, or the Issuer as
assignee of Purchaser, or the Trust Collateral Agent as assignee of the Issuer, in exercising any
power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single
or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other or future exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.
ARTICLE VI.
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 6.1 Liability of Seller. Seller shall be liable in accordance herewith only
to the extent of the obligations in this Agreement specifically undertaken by Seller and the
representations and warranties of Seller.
SECTION 6.2 Merger or Consolidation of Seller or Purchaser. Any corporation or other
entity (i) into which Seller or Purchaser may be merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any
merger or consolidation to which Seller or Purchaser is a party or (iii) succeeding to the business
of Seller or Purchaser, in the case of Purchaser, which corporation has a certificate of
incorporation containing provisions relating to limitations on business and other matters
substantively identical to those contained in Purchaser’s certificate of incorporation, provided
that in any of the foregoing cases such corporation shall execute an agreement of assumption to
perform every obligation of Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, under this Agreement and,
whether or not such assumption agreement is executed, shall be the successor to Seller or
Purchaser, as the case may be, hereunder (without relieving Seller or Purchaser of their
responsibilities hereunder, if it survives such merger or consolidation) without the execution or
filing of any document or any further action by any of the parties to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be
continuing, Purchaser shall not merge or consolidate with any other Person or permit any other
Person to become the successor to Purchaser’s business without the prior written consent of the
Insurer. Seller or Purchaser shall promptly inform the other party, the Issuer, the Trust
Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee and, so long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and
be continuing, the Insurer of such merger, consolidation or purchase and assumption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a condition to the consummation of the transactions referred to
in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, (x) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no
representation or warranty made pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.2 of this Agreement shall have been
breached (for purposes hereof, such representations and warranties shall speak as of the date of
the consummation of such transaction) and no event that, after notice or lapse of time, or both,
would become an event of default under the Insurance Agreement, shall have occurred and be
continuing, (y) Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall have delivered written notice of such
consolidation, merger or purchase and assumption to the Rating Agencies prior to the consummation
of such transaction and shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Insurer and the
13
Trust Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller or a certificate signed by or on
behalf of the Purchaser, as applicable, and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such
consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 6.2
and that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement relating to such
transaction have been complied with, and (z) Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall have
delivered to the Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust Collateral Agent an Opinion of Counsel, stating,
in the opinion of such counsel, either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements and
amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary to preserve and protect the
interest of the Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent in the Receivables and reciting the details
of the filings or (B) no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest.
SECTION 6.3 Limitation on Liability of Seller and Others. Seller and any director,
officer, employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any
document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any
matters arising under this Agreement. Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in,
prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its obligations under this Agreement
or its Related Documents and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.
SECTION 6.4 Seller May Own Notes or the Certificate. Subject to the provisions of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, Seller and any Affiliate of Seller may in their individual or any
other capacity become the owner or pledgee of Notes or the Certificate with the same rights as they
would have if they were not Seller or an Affiliate thereof.
SECTION 6.5 Amendment.
(a) This Agreement may be amended by Seller and Purchaser with the prior written
consent of the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be
continuing) but without the consent of the Trust Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee, the
Certificateholder or any of the Noteholders (i) to cure any ambiguity or (ii) to correct any
provisions in this Agreement; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer and the Trust
Collateral Agent, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder or Noteholder or, if an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Insurer.
(b) This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by Seller and Purchaser, with
the prior written consent of the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default shall not have
occurred and be continuing) and with the consent of the Trust Collateral Agent and, if
required, the Certificateholder and the Noteholders, in accordance with the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner
or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the
rights of the Certificateholder or Noteholders; provided, however, the
Seller provides the Trust Collateral Agent with an Opinion of Counsel, (which may be
provided by the Seller’s internal counsel) that no such amendment shall increase or reduce
in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments
on Receivables or distributions that shall be required to be made on any Note
14
or Certificate; provided further that if an Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, such amendment shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the
Insurer.
(c) Prior to the execution of any such amendment or consent, Seller shall have
furnished written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Rating
Agency.
(d) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholder or Noteholders
pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or
consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.
The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution
thereof by Certificateholder or Noteholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements
as the Trust Collateral Agent may prescribe, including the establishment of record dates.
The consent of a Holder of a Certificate or a Note given pursuant to this Section or
pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on such
Holder and on all future Holders of such Certificate or Note and of any Certificate or Note
issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange thereof or in lieu thereof whether or not
notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate or Note.

Trustee, the Insurer or the Trust Collateral Agent, as applicable.

this Agreement and Related Documents set forth the entire understanding of the parties relating to
the subject matter hereof, and all prior understandings, written or oral, are superseded by this
Agreement and the Related Documents. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, waived or
supplemented except as provided herein.
SECTION 6.8 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants,
provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such
covenants, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, provisions
or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other
provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 6.9 Intention of the Parties. The execution and delivery of this Agreement
shall constitute an acknowledgment by Seller and Purchaser that they intend that the assignment and
transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale and assignment outright, and not for security, of
the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any
Liens, from Seller to Purchaser, and that the Receivables and the Other
15
Conveyed Property shall not be a part of Seller’s estate in the event of the bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding under any
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, or the occurrence of another similar event, of, or with
respect to Seller. In the event that such conveyance is determined to be made as security for a
loan made by Purchaser, the Issuer, the Noteholders or the Certificateholder to Seller, the Seller
hereby grants to Purchaser a security interest in all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and
to the following property, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, and this
Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law (collectively, the “Purchase
Agreement Collateral”):

Agreement or a Third-Party Lender pursuant to an Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement as a
result of a breach of representation or warranty in the related Dealer Agreement or Auto
Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement;
(5) all rights under any Service Contracts on the related Financed Vehicles;
(6) the related Receivable Files;
(7) all of the Seller’s (i) Accounts, (ii) Chattel Paper, (iii) Documents, (iv)
Instruments and (v) General Intangibles (as such terms are defined in the UCC) relating to
the property described in (1) through (6); and
(8) all proceeds and investments with respect to items (1) through (7).
SECTION 6.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and
this Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement shall be
governed by, the law of the State of New York, without giving effect to its conflict of law
provisions (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law).
SECTION 6.11 Counterparts. For the purpose of facilitating the execution of this
Agreement and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of
counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which
counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
16
SECTION 6.12 Conveyance of the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property to the
Issuer. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser intends, pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, to convey the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property, together with its rights
under this Agreement, to the Issuer on the Closing Date. Seller acknowledges and consents to such
conveyance and pledge and waives any further notice thereof and covenants and agrees that the
representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement and the rights of Purchaser
hereunder are intended to benefit the Insurer, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Trust Collateral
Agent, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder. In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller
covenants and agrees to perform its duties and obligations hereunder, in accordance with the terms
hereof for the benefit of the Insurer, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent,
the Noteholders and the Certificateholder and that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, Seller shall be directly liable to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Trust
Collateral Agent, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder (notwithstanding any failure by the
Servicer, the Backup Servicer or the Purchaser to perform its respective duties and obligations
hereunder or under Related Documents) and that the Trust Collateral Agent may enforce the duties
and obligations of Seller under this Agreement against Seller for the benefit of the Insurer, the
Owner Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder.
SECTION 6.13 Nonpetition Covenant. Neither Purchaser nor Seller shall petition or
otherwise invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or
sustaining a case against the Purchaser or the Issuer under any federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian,
sequestrator or other similar official of the Purchaser or the Issuer or any substantial part of
their respective property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the
Purchaser or the Issuer.
SECTION 6.14 Benefits of Purchase Agreement. The Insurer and its successors and
assigns shall be a third-party beneficiary to the provisions of this Purchase Agreement and shall
be entitled to rely upon and directly enforce the provisions of this Purchase Agreement so long as
no Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Insurer were utilized in selecting the Receivables from those receivables owned by AmeriCredit

12. Chattel Paper. The Receivables constitute “tangible chattel paper” or “electronic
chattel paper” within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the States of Texas, New York, Nevada
and Delaware.
13. One Original. There is only one original executed copy (or with respect to
“electronic chattel paper”, one authoritative copy) of each Contract. With respect to Contracts
that
Sch. B-2
are “electronic chattel paper”, each authoritative copy (a) is unique, identifiable and
unalterable (other than with the participation of the Trust Collateral Agent in the case of an
addition or amendment of an identified assignee and other than a revision that is readily
identifiable as an authorized or unauthorized revision), (b) has been marked with a legend to the
following effect: “Authoritative Copy” and (c) has been communicated to and is maintained by or on
behalf of the Custodian.
14. Not an Authoritative Copy. With respect to Contracts that are “electronic chattel
paper”, the Seller has marked all copies of each such Contract other than an authoritative copy
with a legend to the following effect: “This is not an authoritative copy.”
15. Revisions. With respect to Contracts that are “electronic chattel paper”, the
related Receivables have been established in a manner such that (a) all copies or revisions that
add or change an identified assignee of the authoritative copy of each such Contract must be made
with the participation of the Trust Collateral Agent and (b) all revisions of the authoritative
copy of each such Contract must be readily identifiable as an authorized or unauthorized revision.
16. Pledge or Assignment. With respect to Contracts that are “electronic chattel
paper”, the authoritative copy of each Contract communicated to the Custodian has no marks or
notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other
than the Trust Collateral Agent.
17. Receivable Files Complete. There exists a Receivable File pertaining to each
Receivable and such Receivable File contains a fully executed original of the Contract and the
original Lien Certificate or a copy of the application therefor. Related documentation concerning
the Receivable, including any documentation regarding modifications of the Contract, will be
maintained electronically by the Servicer in accordance with customary policies and procedures.
Each of such documents which is required to be signed by the Obligor has been signed by the Obligor
in the appropriate spaces. All blanks on any form have been properly filled in and each form has
otherwise been correctly prepared. With respect to Receivables that are tangible chattel paper,
the complete Receivable File for each Receivable, including a fully executed original of the
Contract, currently is in the possession of the Custodian.
18. Receivables in Force. No Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated or
rescinded, and the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable has not been released from the
lien of the related Receivable in whole or in part. No terms of any Receivable have been waived,
altered or modified in any respect since its origination, except by instruments or documents
identified in the Receivable File or the Servicer’s electronic records.
19. Lawful Assignment. No Receivable was originated in, or is subject to the laws of,
any jurisdiction the laws of which would make unlawful, void or voidable the sale, transfer and
assignment of such Receivable under this Agreement or pursuant to transfers of the Notes.
20. Good Title. Immediately prior to the conveyance of the Receivables to AFS SenSub
Corp. pursuant to this Agreement, AmeriCredit was the sole owner thereof and had good and
indefeasible title thereto, free of any Lien and, upon execution and delivery of this Agreement by
AmeriCredit, AFS SenSub Corp. shall have good and indefeasible title to and will be the sole
Sch. B-3
owner of such Receivables, free of any Lien. No Dealer or Third-Party Lender has a
participation in, or other right to receive, proceeds of any Receivable. AmeriCredit has not taken
any action to convey any right to any Person that would result in such Person having a right to
payments received under the related Insurance Policies or the related Dealer Agreements, Auto Loan
Purchase and Sale Agreements, Dealer Assignments, or Third-Party Lender Assignments or to payments
due under such Receivables.
21. Security Interest in Financed Vehicle. Each Receivable created or shall create a
valid, binding and enforceable first priority security interest in favor of AmeriCredit (or an
Originating Affiliate or a Titled Third-Party Lender which first priority security interest has
been assigned to AmeriCredit) in the Financed Vehicle. The Lien Certificate for each 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 Closing Date and
will show, AmeriCredit (or an Originating Affiliate or a Titled Third-Party Lender) named as the
original secured party under each Receivable as 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, AmeriCredit or the related Originating Affiliate has
applied for or received written evidence from the related Dealer or Third-Party Lender that such
Lien Certificate showing AmeriCredit, an Originating Affiliate, the Issuer or a Titled Third-Party
Lender, as applicable, as first lienholder has been applied for and the Originating Affiliate’s or
Titled Third-Party Lender’s security interest has been validly assigned by the Originating
Affiliate or Titled Third-Party Lender, as applicable, to AmeriCredit and AmeriCredit’s security
interest has been validly assigned by AmeriCredit to AFS SenSub Corp. pursuant to this Agreement.
This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the UCC) in the
Receivables in favor of the Purchaser, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is
enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Seller. Immediately after the
sale, transfer and assignment thereof by AmeriCredit to AFS SenSub Corp., each Receivable will be
secured by an enforceable and perfected first priority security interest in the Financed Vehicle in
favor of AFS SenSub Corp. as secured party, which security interest is prior to all other Liens
upon and security interests in such Financed Vehicle which now exist or may hereafter arise or be
created (except, as to priority, for any lien for taxes, labor or materials affecting a Financed
Vehicle). As of the Cutoff Date, there were no Liens or claims for taxes, work, labor or materials
affecting a Financed Vehicle which are or may be Liens prior or equal to the Liens of the related
Receivable.
22. All Filings Made. All filings (including, without limitation, UCC filings
(including, without limitation, the filing by the Seller of all appropriate financing statements in
the proper filing office in the State of Delaware under applicable law in order to perfect the
security interest in the Receivables granted to the Purchaser hereunder)) required to be made by
any Person and actions required to be taken or performed by any Person in any jurisdiction to give
the Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent a first priority perfected lien on, or ownership interest
in, the Receivables and the proceeds thereof and the Other Conveyed Property have been made, taken
or performed.
23. No Impairment. AmeriCredit has not done anything to convey any right to any

otherwise to impair the rights of the Trust, the Insurer, the Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent
and

the Noteholders in any Receivable or the proceeds thereof. Other than the security interest
granted to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and except any other security interests that
have been fully released and discharged as of the Closing Date, the Seller has not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables. The

statement relating to the security interest granted to the Purchaser hereunder or that has been
terminated. The Seller is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against it.

manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor’s obligations to AmeriCredit with

counterclaim or defense and no such right has been asserted or threatened with respect to any

acceleration under the terms of any Receivable (other than payment delinquencies of not more than
30 days) and no condition exists or event has occurred and is continuing that with notice, the
lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting
acceleration under the terms of any Receivable, and there has been no waiver of any of the
foregoing. As of the Cutoff Date, no Financed Vehicle had been repossessed.
27. Insurance. At the time of an origination of a Receivable by AmeriCredit, an
Originating Affiliate, a Dealer or Third-Party Lender, each Financed Vehicle is required to be
covered by a comprehensive and collision insurance policy (i) in an amount at least equal to the
lesser of (a) its maximum insurable value or (b) the principal amount due from the Obligor under
the related Receivable, (ii) naming AmeriCredit (or an Originating Affiliate or a Titled
Third-Party Lender) as loss payee and (iii) insuring against loss and damage due to fire, theft,
transportation, collision and other risks generally covered by comprehensive and collision
coverage. Each Receivable requires the Obligor to maintain physical loss and damage insurance,
naming AmeriCredit, an Originating Affiliate or a Titled Third-Party Lender and its successors and
assigns as additional insured parties, and each Receivable permits the holder thereof to obtain
physical loss and damage insurance at the expense of the Obligor if the Obligor fails to do so. No
Financed Vehicle is insured under a policy of Force-Placed Insurance on the Cutoff Date.
