(a) The Seller will use its best efforts to cause the Registration
Statement, and any amendment thereto, if not effective at the Execution Time, to
become effective. Prior to the termination of the offering of the Notes, the
Seller will not file any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement
to the Prospectus unless the Seller has furnished the Representative a copy for
its review prior to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or
supplement to which the Representative reasonably objects. Subject to the

the issuance of any such stop order and to obtain as soon as possible the
lifting of any issued stop order.
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Notes is required to
be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus
as then amended or supplemented would contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Registration
Statement or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange
Act, the Seller promptly will prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and
filed, with the Commission an amendment or supplement which will correct such
statement or omission, or an amendment or supplement which will effect such
compliance. Neither the consent of the Representative to, nor the delivery by
the several Underwriters of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a
waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof.
(d) As soon as practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as
defined below), the Seller will cause the Trust to make generally available to
Noteholders an earnings statement of the Trust covering a period of at least 12

under the laws of such states as the several Underwriters may require and will
continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution.
(g) For a period from the date of this Agreement until the retirement of
the Notes, or until such time as the several Underwriters shall cease to
maintain a secondary market in the Notes, whichever occurs first, the Seller
will deliver to the Representative the annual statements of compliance and the
annual independent certified public accountants' reports furnished to the
Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee pursuant to the Trust and Servicing
Agreement as soon as such statements and reports are furnished to the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee.

classes of the Notes by the rating agency or agencies that initially rate the
classes of the Notes are conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the
taking of any other actions by the Seller agreed upon on or prior to the Closing
Date, the Seller shall furnish or shall cause to be furnished such documents and
take any such other actions.

Agreement is executed, neither the Seller nor any affiliate of the Seller will,
without the Representative's prior written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), enter into any agreement to offer or sell notes
collateralized by, or certificates evidencing an ownership interest in,
automobile loan receivables except as otherwise provided in this Agreement;
provided, however, that this shall not be construed to prevent the sale of
automobile loans by the Seller.

the Notes that it receives in the manner set forth in the Prospectus under the
caption "Use of Proceeds."

(ii) The Trust has been duly formed and is validly existing as a
business trust under the Business Trust Act of the State of Delaware (the
"Business Trust Act"). The Trust and Servicing Agreement authorizes the
Trust to execute and deliver the Trust and Servicing Agreement, the
Indenture, and the Administration Agreement, to issue the Senior Notes and
the Subordinate Notes and to grant the Trust Estate to the Indenture
Trustee as security for the Notes.
(iii) Except for the timely filing in the future of continuation
statements with respect to the financing statements, no other filing is
required in the State of Delaware in order to make effective the lien of
the Indenture. Insofar as Article 9 of the Delaware Uniform Commercial
Code, 6 Del. C. Section 9-101 et seq. (the "UCC"), applies (without regard
11
to conflict of laws principles) and assuming that the security interest in
that portion of the Collateral that consists of general intangibles and
accounts, as defined under the UCC, has been duly created and has attached,
the Indenture Trustee has a perfected security interest in such general
intangibles and accounts and the proceeds thereof and, assuming that the
UCC search accurately lists all of the financing statements filed naming
the Trust as debtor and describing any portion of the Collateral consisting
of such general intangibles and accounts and the proceeds thereof, such
security interest of the Indenture Trustee will be prior to the security
interest of all other creditors of the Trust whose security interests are
perfected solely by filing UCC financing statements in the State of
Delaware, excluding purchase money security interests under Section 9-312
of the UCC and temporarily perfected security interests in proceeds under
Section 9-306 of the UCC.
(iv) Under Section 3805(b) of the Business Trust Act, no creditor of
the Company shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise
exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the property of the
Trust except in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
(v) Under Section 3805(c) of the Business Trust Act, and assuming that
the sale of the Receivables to the Trust, pursuant to the Trust and
Servicing Agreement conveys good title to the Receivables to the Trust as a
true sale and not as a security arrangement, the Trust rather than the
Seller is the owner of the Receivables.
(vi) The Delaware Trustee is not required to hold legal title to the
Trust Estate in order for the Trust to qualify as a business trust under
the Business Trust Act.
(vii) The execution and delivery by Trustee of the Trust and Servicing
Agreement and, on behalf of the Trust, of the Indenture and the
Administration Agreement, do not require any consent, approval or
authorization of, or any registration of filing with, any governmental
authority of the State of Delaware, except for the filing of the
Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State.
(viii) Neither the consummation by the Trustee of the transactions
contemplated in the Trust and Servicing Agreement or, on behalf of the
Trust, the transactions contemplated in the Indenture and the
Administration Agreement, nor the fulfillment of the terms thereof by the
Trustee will conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any law of
the State of Delaware.
(l) The Representative shall have received an opinion of counsel to the
Trustee, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to the
Representative and its counsel, to the effect that:
(i) The Trustee is a national banking association duly organized and
validly existing under the laws of the United States.
(ii) The Trustee has the full corporate trust power to accept the
office of eligible lender trustee under the Trust and Servicing Agreement
and to enter into and
12
perform its obligations under the Trust and Servicing Agreement and, on
behalf of the Trust, under the Indenture, the Administration Agreement and,
any Insurance Agreement.
(iii) The execution and delivery of the Trust and Servicing Agreement,
by the Trustee and the Indenture, the Administration Agreement and any
Insurance Agreement, by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, and the
performance by the Trustee of its obligations under the Trust and Servicing
Agreement, as well as the performance by the Eligible Lender Trustee of its
obligations on behalf of the Trust under the Indenture, the Administration
Agreement and any Insurance Agreement have been duly authorized by all
necessary action of the Trustee and each has been duly executed and
delivered by the Trustee.
(iv) The Trust and Servicing Agreement constitute valid and binding
obligations of the Eligible Lender Trustee enforceable against the Trustee
in accordance with its respective terms, and the Indenture, the
Administration Agreement and any Insurance Agreement constitute the valid
and binding obligations of the Trust enforceable against the Trust in
accordance with their respective terms, except in each case as the
enforceability thereof may be (a) limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the
rights of creditors generally, and (b) subject to general principals of
equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law).
(v) The execution and delivery by the Trustee of the Trust and
Servicing Agreement, the Administration Agreement and any Insurance
Agreement do not require any consent, approval or authorization of, or any
registration or filing with, any applicable governmental authority which
has not been obtained or done.
(vi) Each of the Notes has been duly executed and delivered by the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust.
(vii) None of (x) the consummation by the Trustee of the transactions
contemplated in the Trust and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture, the
Administration Agreement and any Insurance Agreement or (z) the fulfillment
of the terms thereof by the Trustee or the Trust, as the case may be, will
conflict with, result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default
under any law or the Articles of Association, Bylaws or other
organizational documents of the Trustee or the terms of any indenture or
other agreement or instrument known to such counsel and to which the
Trustee or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them
is bound or any judgment, order or decree known to such counsel to be
applicable to the Trustee or any of its subsidiaries, of any court,
regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body or arbitrator
having jurisdiction over the Trustee or any of its subsidiaries.
(viii) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
best of such counsel's knowledge after due inquiry, threatened against the
Trustee (as trustee under the Trust and Servicing Agreement or in its
individual capacity) before or by any governmental authority that might
materially and adversely affect the performance by the
13
Trustee of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, the
Trust and Servicing Agreement.
(ix) The execution, delivery and performance by the Trustee of the
Trust Agreement and Servicing Agreement, and on behalf of the Trust, of the
Indenture, the Administration Agreement and any Insurance Agreement will
not subject any of the property or assets of the Trust, or any portion
thereof, to any liens created by or arising under the Trustee that are
unrelated to the transactions contemplated in such agreements.
(n) The Representative shall have received an opinion of , counsel to the
Indenture Trustee, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance
to the Representative and its counsel, to the effect that:
(i) The Indenture Trustee is a national banking association duly
organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States.
(ii) The Indenture Trustee has the requisite power and authority to
execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Indenture and the
Administration Agreement and has taken all necessary action to authorize
the execution, delivery and performance by it of the Indenture and the
Administration Agreement.
(iii) Each of the Indenture and the Administration Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and constitutes a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Indenture Trustee, enforceable
against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its respective terms,
except that such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, or other similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and by general principles
of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality,
reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(iv) The Notes have been duly authenticated by the Indenture Trustee
in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.
(o) The Representative shall have received an opinion of counsel as to such
other related matters as the Representative shall reasonably require and the
Seller shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to such counsel such
documents as they may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to
pass upon such matters.
(p) The Representative shall have received certificates dated the Closing
Date of any two of the Chairman of the Board, the President, any Executive Vice
President, Senior Vice President or Vice President, the Treasurer, any Assistant
Treasurer, the Secretary, the Assistant Secretary, the principal financial
officer or the principal accounting officer of each of the Seller and the
Servicer in which such officers shall state that, to the best of their knowledge
after reasonable investigation, (i) the representations and warranties of the
Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be,

the certificate from the Seller only, that no stop order suspending the

documents as the Representative reasonably requests.
7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Seller will indemnify and hold
each Underwriter harmless against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to
which such Underwriter may become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the preliminary
Base Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement (if any), the Base
Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise
out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as
such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Seller will not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Seller
by any Underwriter specifically for use therein.
(b) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and
hold harmless the Seller against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to
which the Seller may become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out
of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the preliminary Base
15
Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement (if any), the Base Prospectus
or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or arise out of or are
based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to such
Underwriter furnished to the Seller by such Underwriter through the
Representative specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by the Seller in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as
such expenses are incurred.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of
notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than
under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against
any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to
the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such
indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified
party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof and approval by the indemnified party of the counsel appointed
by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In no event shall the
indemnifying party be liable for fees and expenses for more than one counsel
separate from its own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any
one action or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same
general allegations or circumstances unless any such indemnified party shall
have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses
available to it which are different from or additional to or in conflict with
those available to the other indemnified parties and in the reasonable judgment
of such cor such indemnified party to employ separate counsel. An indemnifying
party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party,
settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any
pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which
indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the
indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action)
unless such settlement, compromise or consent (1) includes an unconditional
release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim,
action, suit or proceeding and (2) does not include a statement as to or
admission of, fault, exculpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an
indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b)
above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Seller on the
one
16
hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if
the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law,
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Seller on the
one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received
by the Seller on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed
to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before
deducting expenses) of the Notes received by the Seller bear to the total
underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the Notes received by the
Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Seller or by the Underwriters and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by an
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities
referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to
include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is
the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this
subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the underwriting discount or commission applicable
to the Notes underwritten by it exceeds the amount of any damages which such
Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untru statement
or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The obligations of each of the Underwriters to contribute are
several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and are not
joint.
(e) The obligations of the Seller under this Section shall be in addition
to any liability which the Seller may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the
same terms and conditions, to each Person, if any, who controls any Underwriter
within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the
Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the
respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms
and conditions, to each director of the Seller, to each officer of the Seller
who has signed the Registration Statement and to each Person, if any, who
controls the Seller within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act.
8. Default of Underwriters. If any Underwriter participating in the
offering of the Notes defaults in its obligation hereunder to purchase the
aggregate principal amounts of the classes of the Notes set forth in Schedule I
hereto and the aggregate principal amount of such Notes which such defaulting
Underwriter agreed, but failed, to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total
principal amount of the Notes, the Representative may make arrangements
satisfactory to the Seller for the purchase of such Notes by other Persons, but
if no such arrangements are made within a period of 36 hours after the Closing
Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, in proportion to their
respective total commitment hereunder, to purchase the Notes which such
defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase. If any Underwriter so
defaults and the aggregate principal amount of Notes with respect to which such
default occurs is more than
17
10% of the total principal amount of the Notes and arrangements satisfactory to
the Representative and the Seller for the purchase of such Notes by other
Persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will
terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters or
the Seller, except as provided in Section 9. As used in this Agreement, the term
"Underwriter" includes any Person substituted for any Underwriter under this
Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for
its default.
9. Survival of Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities,
agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Seller or
its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to
this Agreement or contained in certificates of officers of the Seller submitted
pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless
of any investigation or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on
behalf of any Underwriter, the Seller or any of their respective
representatives, officers or directors or any controlling Person, and will
survive delivery of and payment for the Notes. If for any reason the purchase of
the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Seller shall remain
responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by the Seller pursuant to
Section 5 hereof and the respective obligations of the Seller and the
Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 hereof shall remain in effect. If for any
reason the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated (other
than because of a failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in items (iii),
(v) and (vi) of Section 6(d) hereof), the Seller will reimburse the Underwriters
for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel)
reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Notes.
10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent
to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telecopied and confirmed to
the Representative at _________________________, Indianapolis, Indiana ________,
Attention: _______________; if sent to the Seller, will be mailed, delivered or
telecopied, and confirmed to the Seller at _________________________,
_________________________, _______________, ________, Attention:
_______________; provided, however, that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant
to ________ _______ Section 7 hereof will be mailed, delivered or telecopied and
confirmed to such Underwriter. Any such notice will take effect at the time of
receipt.
11. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and
directors and controlling Persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and no other
Person will have any right or obligations hereunder.
12. Representation of Underwriters. The Representative shall act for the
several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action taken by
the Representative will be binding upon all the Underwriters.
13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.
18
14. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Indiana without regard to the
conflicts of law principles thereof.
If the foregoing is in accordance with the Representative's understanding
of our agreement, kindly sign and return to us one of the counterparts hereof,
whereupon it will become a binding Underwriting Agreement between the Seller and
the several Underwriters in accordance with its terms.
Very truly yours,
