(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 Initial Receivables and the Initial 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. At or prior to any Subsequent Transfer Date, Seller shall file or
cause to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement naming Seller as seller or debtor, naming the
Purchaser as purchaser or secured party and describing the Subsequent Receivables and the
Subsequent Other Conveyed Property being sold by it to the Purchaser as collateral, with the
office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and in such other locations as
Purchaser shall require. 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
9
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 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.
(d) Prior to the Closing Date and with respect to Subsequent Receivables, the

at any time as of or prior to the Closing Date and with respect to Subsequent Receivables,
the Subsequent Transfer Date, the status of such Receivable, including 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
with respect to the Initial Receivables as of the Initial Cutoff Date and with respect to
Subsequent Receivables, the Subsequent 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
10
Receivable shall become a Purchased
Receivable or a Sold Receivable or shall have been paid in full or 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, and
Seller shall defend the right, title, and interest of Purchaser and the Issuer in and to the
Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property against all claims of third parties claiming through or
under Seller.
SECTION 4.3 Costs and Expenses. Seller shall pay all reasonable costs and disbursements in
connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder and under its Related Documents.
SECTION 4.4 Indemnification.
(a) Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, the Issuer, the Trust
Collateral Agent, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer, the
Noteholders and the Certificateholder from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses,

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
13
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 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
14
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 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
15
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 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 and the Insurer.
(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.

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

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

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

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

Noteholders, the Insurer 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.

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 or a Subsequent Purchase Agreement, as applicable, AmeriCredit was
the sole owner thereof and had good and indefeasible title thereto, free of any
B-3
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 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 or
Subsequent Transfer Date, as applicable, 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 as 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 Initial Cutoff
Date or the Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable, 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 Trust 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.
B-4
23. No Impairment. AmeriCredit has not done anything to convey any right to any
Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments due under the Receivables or
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
Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the
Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing
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.
24. Receivable Not Assumable. No Receivable is assumable by another Person in a
manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor’s obligations to AmeriCredit with
respect to such Receivable.
25. No Defenses. No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff,
counterclaim or defense and no such right has been asserted or threatened with respect to any
Receivable.
26. No Default. There has been no default, breach, violation or event permitting
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 Initial Cutoff Date or the Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable, 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 Initial Cutoff Date or
the Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable.
28. Past Due. At the Initial Cutoff Date or the Subsequent Cutoff Date, as applicable,
no Receivable was more than 30 days past due.

sales, use, property, excise and other similar taxes imposed on or with respect to the Financed
B-7
Vehicle and making the Obligor liable for all payments required to be made thereunder, without
any setoff, counterclaim or defense for any reason whatsoever, subject only to the Obligor’s right
of quiet enjoyment.

type similar to the Obligor’s related Financed Vehicle.
