(a) In consideration of the Issuer’s delivery to or upon the order of the Depositor on the Closing Date of authenticated Notes, in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Initial Note Balance, and authenticated Certificates, the Depositor hereby irrevocably sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to the Issuer, without recourse (subject to the obligations of the Depositor set forth herein), all right, title and interest of the Depositor, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, and wheresoever located, in, to and under the following:

(i) the Receivables and all amounts due and collected on or in respect of the Receivables (including proceeds of the repurchase of Receivables by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.05 of this Agreement or Section 3.04 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or the purchase of Receivables by the Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.03, 3.08 or 8.01 of this Agreement) after the Cutoff Date;

(ii) the security interests (including in the Financed Equipment) granted by the Obligors pursuant to the Receivables and any other interest of the Depositor in such Financed Equipment;

(iii) all proceeds from claims on any insurance policies relating to the Receivables, the related Financed Equipment or the related Obligors;

(iv) the Receivable Files that relate to the Receivables;

(v) the Collection Account, the Note Payment Account, the Reserve Fund and all amounts, securities, Financial Assets, investments and other property deposited in or credited to any of the foregoing and all proceeds thereof;

(vi) all rights of the Depositor, but none of the obligations, under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the First-Tier Assignment, including the right to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables from the Issuer;

(vii) the right to realize upon any property (including the right to receive future Net Liquidation Proceeds and Recoveries) that shall have secured a Receivable and have been repossessed by or on behalf of the Issuer; and

(viii) all present and future claims, demands, causes of action and choses in action in respect of any or all of the foregoing, and all payments on or under and all proceeds of every kind and nature whatsoever in respect of any or all of the foregoing, including all proceeds of the conversion thereof, voluntary or involuntary, into cash or other liquid property, all accounts, accounts receivable, general intangibles, chattel paper, documents, money, investment property, deposit accounts, letters of credit, letter of credit rights, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, notes, drafts, acceptances, rights to payment of any and every kind and other forms of obligations and receivables, instruments and other property which at any time constitutes all or part of, or is included in, the proceeds of any of the foregoing.

(b) The Depositor and the Issuer intend that the transfer of Trust Property contemplated by Section 2.01(a) constitute a sale of the Trust Property from the Depositor to the Issuer, conveying good title to the Trust Property free and clear of any Liens and, in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor under any Insolvency Law, that the Trust Property shall not be part of the Depositor’s estate. In the event, however, that any such transfer is deemed to be a pledge, the Depositor hereby grants to the Issuer a first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Trust Property, and all proceeds thereof, to secure the payment of the Notes and accrued interest thereon and all other amounts owing under the Basic Documents and in such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under Applicable Law.

(c) The sales, transfers, assignments and conveyances of Trust Property made under this Section shall not constitute, and is not intended to result in, an assumption by the Issuer of any obligation of the Depositor or the Seller to the Obligors or any other Person in connection with the Receivables and the other Trust Property or any obligation of the Depositor or the Seller under any agreement, document or instrument related thereto.

Section 2.02. Representations and Warranties of the Seller as to the Receivables. The Seller has made, in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, each of the representations and warranties as to the Receivables set forth in Exhibit A. The Issuer shall be deemed to have relied on such representations and warranties in accepting the Receivables. Such representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent otherwise provided, but shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Pursuant to Section 2.01(a), the Depositor has sold, transferred, assigned and otherwise conveyed to the Issuer, as part of the Trust Property, its rights under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including its right to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement upon a breach of such representations and warranties.

The Seller hereby agrees that the Issuer shall have the right to enforce any and all rights of the Depositor under the Receivables Purchase Agreement assigned to the Issuer under this Agreement, including the right to require the Seller to repurchase Receivables in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement upon a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Exhibit A, directly against the Seller as though the Issuer were a party to the Receivables Purchase Agreement and that the Issuer shall not be obligated to enforce any such right indirectly through the Depositor.

Section 2.03. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to the Receivables. The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which the Issuer shall be deemed to have relied in accepting the Receivables. The representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent otherwise provided, but shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

(a) Title. The Depositor has purchased the Receivables from the Seller. The Depositor intends that the transfer of the Receivables contemplated by Section 2.01 constitute a sale of the Receivables from the Depositor to the Issuer and that the beneficial interest in, and title to, the Receivables not be part of the Depositor’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Depositor under any Insolvency Law.

(b) Security Interest Matters. The Depositor has caused or will cause prior to the Closing Date the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing offices in the appropriate jurisdictions under Applicable Law necessary to perfect the security interest in the Receivables granted to the Issuer under this Agreement. The security interest of the Seller in each item of Financed Equipment has been validly assigned by the Depositor to the Issuer.

(c) Financing Statements. All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Depositor in favor of the Indenture Trustee (as assignee of the Issuer) contain a statement substantially to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee”.

(d) No Transfer Restrictions. The Depositor has not created, incurred or suffered to exist any restriction on transferability of the Receivables except for the restrictions on transferability imposed by this Agreement. The transfer of the Receivables and the Receivable Files by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement is not subject to the bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction.

Section 2.04. Representations and Warranties as to Security Interests. The Depositor makes the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which the Issuer shall be deemed to have relied in accepting the Receivables. The representations and warranties speak as of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent otherwise provided, but shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the pledge of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

(a) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing “security interest” (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Receivables in favor of the Issuer, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor.

(b) The Depositor has taken all steps necessary to perfect its security interest against the Obligor in the Financed Equipment.

(c) The Receivables constitute “tangible chattel paper” or, in the case of Receivables relating to Dealer Loans, “accounts”, instruments” or “payment intangibles” within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

(d) The Depositor owns and has good and marketable title to the Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

(e) All original executed copies of each loan agreement or installment sales contract that constitute or evidence those Receivables that constitute tangible chattel paper have been delivered to the Servicer, as custodian for the Issuer.

(f) The Depositor has received a written acknowledgment from the Servicer that the Servicer is holding the loan agreements and installment sales contracts that constitute or evidence the Receivables solely on behalf and for the benefit of the Issuer.

(g) Other than the security interest granted to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement and the Indenture, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables. The Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Issuer hereunder or that has been terminated. The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Depositor.

(h) None of the loan agreements or installment sales contracts that constitute or evidence the Receivables has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned, or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Issuer.

Section 2.05. Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach.

(a) Investigation of Breach. If an Authorized Officer of the Seller (i) has knowledge of a breach of a representation or warranty made in Exhibit A of this Agreement, (ii) receives notice from the Issuer or either Trustee of a breach of any such representation or warranty, (iii) receives a Repurchase Request from a Note Owner, a Noteholder or either Trustee for a Receivable or (iv) receives a Review Report that indicates a Test Fail for a Receivable, the Seller will investigate the related Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach has a material adverse effect on the interests of the Issuer or Noteholders in such Receivable. None of the Servicer, the Issuer, either Trustee, the Administrator or the Asset Representations Reviewer will have an obligation to investigate whether a breach of any representation or warranty has occurred or whether any Receivable is required to be repurchased under this Section.

(b) Repurchase of Receivables; Payment of Purchase Price. If a breach of a representation or warranty made in Exhibit A of this Agreement has a material adverse effect on the interests of the Issuer or Noteholders in a Receivable, and if such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the 30th day after the date on which the Seller becomes aware of, or receives written notice from the Depositor, the Servicer, either Trustee, a Note Owner or a Noteholder of, such breach, the Seller shall repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer as of the close of business on the last day of such Collection Period by paying the Purchase Amount to the Issuer on the Deposit Date related to such Collection Period.

(c) Sale and Assignment of Repurchased Receivable. When the Purchase Amount is included in Available Collections for a Payment Date, the Issuer will, without further action, be deemed to have sold and assigned to the Seller, effective as of the last day of the Collection Period before the related Collection Period, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in the related Receivable repurchased by the Seller under this Section and all security and documents relating to such Receivable. The sale will not require any action by the Issuer and will be without recourse, representation or warranty by the Issuer except the representation that the Issuer owns such Receivable free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens. In connection with the sale, the Servicer may take any action necessary or advisable to evidence the sale of such Receivable, free from any Lien of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.

(d) Repurchase Sole Remedy. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.17, the sole remedy of the Issuer, the Trustees, the Note Owners and the Noteholders with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Exhibit A shall be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivable pursuant to this Section and Section 3.04 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. Neither Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section or the eligibility of any Receivable for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.06. Custody of Receivable Files.

(a) To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Issuer hereby revocably appoints the Servicer as its agent, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act as custodian, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, of the following documents or instruments which are hereby constructively delivered to the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Trust Property pursuant to the Indenture with respect to each Receivable (collectively, a “Receivable File”):

(i) the fully executed original of the Receivable;

(ii) the original certificate of title for the related Financed Equipment (or evidence that such certificate of title has been applied for) or such other documents that the Seller or the Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, evidencing the security interest of the Seller in such Financed Equipment;

(iii) documents evidencing the commitment of the related Obligor to maintain physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Equipment; and

(iv) any and all other documents (including any computer file or disc or microfiche) that the Seller or the Servicer shall keep on file, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, relating to the Receivable, the related Obligor or the related Financed Equipment.

(b) On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee confirming that the Servicer has received, on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, all the documents and instruments necessary for the Servicer to act as the agent of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the purposes set forth in this Section, including the documents referred to herein, and the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee are hereby authorized to rely on such Officer’s Certificate.

Section 2.07. Duties of Servicer as Custodian.

(a) Safekeeping. The Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, shall hold the Receivable Files for the benefit of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and maintain such accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems pertaining to each Receivable File as shall enable the Servicer and the Issuer to comply with this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee to comply with the Indenture. In performing its duties as custodian, the Servicer shall act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that it exercises with respect to the files of comparable trucking and transportation equipment installment sales contracts and loans that the Servicer services for itself or others. The Servicer shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, in accordance with its customary practices and procedures, periodic examinations of the files of all receivables owned or serviced by it, which shall include the Receivable Files held by it under this Agreement, and of the related accounts, records and computer systems, in such a manner as shall enable the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee to verify the accuracy of the Servicer’s record keeping as it relates to the Receivables. The Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustees any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and to maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require an initial review or any periodic review of the Receivable Files by the Issuer or the Trustees, and neither the Issuer nor the Trustees shall be liable or responsible for any action or failure to act by the Servicer in its capacity as custodian hereunder.

(b) Maintenance of and Access to Records. The Servicer shall maintain each Receivable File at one of the locations specified in Schedule A or at such other location as shall be specified to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee by the Servicer from time to time. The Servicer may temporarily move individual Receivable Files or any portion thereof without notice as necessary to conduct collection and other servicing activities in accordance with its customary practices and procedures. The Servicer shall make available to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee or its duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors a list of locations of the Receivables, the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems maintained by the Servicer at such times during normal business hours as the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably request.

(c) Release of Documents. As soon as practicable after receiving written instructions from the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall release any document in the Receivable Files to the Indenture Trustee or its agent or designee, as the case may be, at such place or places as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate. The Servicer shall not be responsible for any loss occasioned by the failure of the Indenture Trustee to return any document or any delay in so doing.

(d) Title to Receivables. The Servicer shall not at any time have, or in any way attempt to assert, any interest in any Receivable held by it as custodian hereunder or in the related Receivable File, other than for collecting or enforcing such Receivable for the benefit of the Issuer. The entire equitable interest in such Receivable and the related Receivable File shall at all times be vested in the Issuer.

Section 2.08. Instructions; Authority to Act. The Servicer shall be deemed to have received proper instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of written instructions signed by a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee. A certified copy of excerpts of authorizing resolutions of the board of directors of the Indenture Trustee shall constitute conclusive evidence of the authority of any such Responsible Officer to act and shall be considered in full force and effect until receipt by the Servicer of written notice to the contrary given by the Indenture Trustee.

Section 2.09. Indemnification by Custodian. The Servicer, in its capacity as custodian of the Receivable Files, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the Trustees and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all Expenses that may be imposed on, incurred or asserted against the Issuer, the Trustees and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents as the result of any improper act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody of the Receivable Files by the Servicer, as custodian, including any Expenses incurred by the relevant party in connection with the enforcement of the Servicer’s indemnification or other obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any portion of any such Expenses resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of either Trustee.

Section 2.10. Effective Period and Termination. The Servicer’s appointment as custodian shall become effective as of the Cutoff Date and shall continue in full force and effect until terminated pursuant to this Section. If the Servicer shall resign as Servicer under Section 6.05, or if all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer shall have been terminated under Section 7.01, the appointment of the Servicer as custodian hereunder may be terminated by (i) the Issuer, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, (ii) Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes] or, if the Notes have been paid in full, by Certificateholders evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests then outstanding or (iii) the Indenture Trustee, with the consent of Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes], in each case by notice then given in writing to the Depositor and the Servicer (with a copy to the Trustees if given by the Noteholders or the Certificateholders). As soon as practicable after any termination of such appointment, the Servicer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Receivable Files and the related accounts and records maintained by the Servicer to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee’s agent or the Indenture Trustee’s designee, as the case may be, at such place as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate or, if the Notes have been paid in full, at such place as the Owner Trustee may reasonably designate.

ARTICLE Three

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF THE TRUST PROPERTY

Section 3.01. Duties of Servicer. The Servicer, acting alone or through one or more subservicers to the extent permitted hereunder, for the benefit of the Issuer, shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with reasonable care but in no event less than the care that the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable commercial trucking and transportation equipment installment sales contracts and loans that it services for itself or others. The Servicer’s duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors or by Governmental Authorities with respect to the Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment statements to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors in accordance with its customary practices, policing the collateral, accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions, providing collection and repossession services in the event of an Obligor default, generating United States federal income tax information and performing the other duties specified herein. The Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary or desirable, it being understood, however, that the Servicer shall at all times remain responsible to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee for the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing and to Section 3.02, the Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures in performing its duties hereunder as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall be authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustees, the Securityholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables and the Financed Equipment.

The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of the Issuer, a Proceeding to enforce a Receivable pursuant to Section 3.04 or to commence or participate in a Proceeding (including a bankruptcy Proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, including a Defaulted Receivable. If the Servicer commences or participates in such a Proceeding in its own name, the Issuer shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection on behalf of the party retaining an interest in such Receivable, such Receivable and the other property conveyed to the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to such Receivable to the Servicer for purposes of commencing or participating in any such Proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Issuer to execute and deliver in the Servicer’s name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other documents or instruments in connection with any such Proceeding. If in any enforcement suit or Proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Receivable on the grounds that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Owner Trustee shall, at the Servicer’s expense and written direction, take steps to enforce such Receivable, including bringing suit in the Servicer’s or the Issuer’s name or the name of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any of them.

The Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents and take any other steps which the Servicer may deem necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer, at its expense, shall obtain on behalf of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee all licenses, if any, required by the laws of any jurisdiction to be held by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in connection with ownership of the Receivables and shall make all filings and pay all fees as may be required in connection therewith during the term of this Agreement. The Servicer shall, or shall cause the Administrator to, prepare, execute and deliver all certificates or other documents required to be delivered by the Issuer pursuant to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Section 3.02. Delegation of Duties; Subservicers.

(a) So long as MBFS USA, or the Indenture Trustee, as Successor Servicer, is the Servicer, the Servicer may without notice or consent delegate (i) any or all of its duties under this Agreement to any Affiliate of MBFS USA (or in the case of the Indenture Trustee as Successor Servicer, any Affiliate of the Indenture Trustee) or (ii) specific duties to sub-contractors who are in the business of performing such duties.

(b) The Servicer may enter into subservicing or sub-contracting agreements in accordance with Section 3.02(a) with one or more subservicers for the servicing and administration of any or all of the Receivables. References in this Agreement or any subservicing or sub-contracting agreement to actions taken, or to be taken, permitted to be taken or restrictions on actions permitted to be taken, by the Servicer in servicing the Receivables shall include actions taken, or to be taken, permitted to be taken or restrictions on actions permitted to be taken, by a subservicer on behalf of the Servicer. Each subservicing or sub-contracting agreement will be upon such terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with this Agreement and the standard of care set forth herein and as the Servicer and the related subservicer have agreed. All compensation payable to a subservicer under a subservicing or sub-contracting agreement shall be payable by the Servicer from its servicing compensation or otherwise from its own funds.

(c) Notwithstanding any subservicing or sub-contracting agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or any arrangements between the Servicer or a subservicer or any reference to actions taken through such entities or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable for the servicing and administering of the Receivables in accordance with this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing or sub-contracting agreements.

(d) Any subservicing or sub-contracting agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or servicing arrangements relating to or involving a subservicer shall be deemed to be between the subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the other parties hereto and the Administrator shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the subservicer.

Section 3.03. Collection of Receivable Payments; Modification of Receivables. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and otherwise act with respect to the Receivables and the other Trust Property in such manner as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the Issuer with respect thereto and in accordance with the standard of care required by Section 3.01. The Servicer shall allocate collections on or in respect of the Receivables between principal and interest in accordance with the Simple Interest Method and the customary servicing practices and procedures it follows with respect to all comparable trucking and transportation equipment installment sales contracts and loans that it services for itself or others. The Servicer may arrange and agree to modifications and extensions of the scheduled payments on any Receivable for credit-related reasons that would be acceptable to the Servicer with respect to comparable trucking and transportation equipment installment sales contracts and loans that it services for itself or others and in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures if the cumulative extensions with respect to any Receivable shall not cause the term of such Receivable to extend beyond the last day of the Collection Period immediately preceding the [Class A-4][Class B] Final Scheduled Payment Date. If the Servicer fails to comply with the provisions of the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall be required to purchase each Receivable affected thereby for the related Purchase Amount as of the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period that includes the 30^thday after the Servicer becomes aware of such failure, by making such deposit in the manner specified in Section 3.08 on the Deposit Date immediately following such Collection Period. The Servicer may, in its discretion (but only in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures), waive any late payment charge, prepayment fees or any other fee that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing a Receivable. In addition, in the event that any such extension of a Receivable modifies the terms of such Receivable in such a manner as to constitute a cancellation of such Receivable and the creation of a new receivable that results in a deemed exchange thereof within the meaning of Section 1001 of the Code, the Servicer shall purchase such Receivable pursuant to Section 3.08, and the Receivable created shall not be included in the Trust Property.

Section 3.04. Realization Upon Receivables. The Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts on behalf of the Issuer, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section 3.01, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of Financed Equipment and other collateral securing a Defaulted Receivable. In taking such action, the Servicer shall follow such customary and usual practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable in its servicing of comparable installment sales contracts and loans secured by trucking and transportation equipment, and as are otherwise consistent with the standard of care required under Section 3.01. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all reasonable expenses incurred by it with respect to realizing on a Defaulted Receivable, including such expenses incurred in the course of repossessing and liquidating Financed Equipment into cash proceeds. The foregoing is subject to the proviso that, in any case in which the Financed Equipment shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any repair or towards the repossession of such Financed Equipment unless it shall determine in its discretion that such repair or repossession shall increase the Net Liquidation Proceeds or Recoveries of the related Receivable.

Section 3.05. Maintenance of Physical Damage Insurance Policies. The Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures to determine whether or not each Obligor shall have maintained physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Equipment. Each Receivable shall provide that the failure by the Obligor to obtain and maintain the required insurance is a default thereunder. The Servicer shall not obtain force-placed insurance in respect of the Receivables.

Section 3.06. Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Equipment. The Servicer shall take such steps, in accordance with the standard of care required under Section 3.01, as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Equipment and any other collateral pledged to secure the Receivable. The Issuer hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby agrees, to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the event the Servicer receives notice of, or otherwise has actual knowledge of, the fact that such security interest is not perfected as a result of the relocation of Financed Equipment or for any other reason. In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to the Issuer is insufficient, without a notation on the related Financed Equipment’s certificate of title (if applicable), to grant to the Issuer a first priority perfected security interest in the related Financed Equipment, the Servicer hereby agrees to serve as the agent of the Issuer for the purpose of perfecting the security interest of the Issuer in such Financed Equipment and agrees that the Servicer’s listing as the secured party on the certificate of title is solely in its capacity as agent of the Issuer. The Servicer shall not release, in whole or in part, any security interest in Financed Equipment created by the related Receivable except as permitted herein or in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures.

Section 3.07. Covenants of Servicer. The Servicer makes the following covenants:

(a) Liens in Force. Except upon the payment in full of a Receivable or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or Applicable Law, the Servicer shall not release in whole or in part any Financed Equipment from the security interest securing the related Receivable.

(b) No Impairment. The Servicer shall not impair in any material respect the rights of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustees or the Securityholders in the Receivables or, except as permitted under Section 3.03, otherwise amend or alter the terms of the Receivables if as a result of such amendment or modification or alteration, the interests of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustees or the Securityholders would be materially adversely affected.

(c) Schedule of Receivables to Indenture Trustee. The Servicer shall on or before the Closing Date (and, at any time thereafter, upon the request of the Indenture Trustee) deliver to the Indenture Trustee a copy of the Schedule of Receivables, which may be delivered in electronic format.

Section 3.08. Purchase of Receivables Upon Breach. The Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties to this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of Section 3.03, 3.06 or 3.07. If such breach shall not have been cured by the close of business on the last day of the Collection Period which includes the 30^th day after the date on which the Servicer becomes aware of, or receives written notice from the Depositor, the Seller or the Owner Trustee of, such breach, and such breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the Issuer in a Receivable, the Servicer shall purchase such Receivable from the Issuer, as of the close of business on the last day of the related Collection Period, by remitting the Purchase Amount of such Receivable to the Collection Account in the manner specified in Section 4.07 on the related Deposit Date. When the Purchase Amount is included in Available Collections for a Payment Date, the Issuer will, without further action, be deemed to have sold and assigned to the Servicer, effective as of the last day of the Collection Period before the related Collection Period, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in the Receivable purchased by the Servicer under this Section and all security and documents relating to such Receivable. The sale will not require any action by the Issuer and will be without recourse, representation or warranty by the Issuer except the representation that the Issuer owns such Receivable free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens. On the sale, the Servicer may take any action necessary or advisable to evidence the sale of such Receivable, free from any Lien of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee. The sole remedy of the Issuer, the Trustees and the Securityholders with respect to a breach of Section 3.03, 3.06 or 3.07 shall be to require the Servicer to purchase Receivables pursuant to this Section. Neither Trustee shall have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the purchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section.

Section 3.09. Servicing Compensation; Payment of Certain Expenses by Servicer. The Servicer shall receive the Monthly Servicing Fee for servicing the Receivables. As additional servicing compensation, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive or retain the Supplemental Servicing Fee. The Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with the activities under this Agreement (including the Independent accountants and any subservicer, taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to Securityholders and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under this Agreement to be for the account of the Securityholders), except expenses incurred in realizing upon Receivables under Section 3.04.

Section 3.10. Investor Report.

(a) On or before each Determination Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Seller and the Trustees, an Investor Report in respect of the related Collection Period and Payment Date and all information necessary for the Trustees, as applicable, to send (or provide access to via the internet) statements to Securityholders pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Indenture and Section 5.01(b) of the Trust Agreement. The Servicer shall also specify to the Trustees, no later than the Determination Date following the last day of a Collection Period as of which the Seller shall separately identify (by account number), in a written notice to the Depositor and the Trustees, the Receivables to be repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer, as the case may be, on the related Deposit Date.

(b) [In connection with any Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date or Benchmark Replacement the Issuer shall provide the Servicer with information for inclusion in the related Investor Report regarding the Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date or Benchmark Replacement (including information with respect to any Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment and Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes), and the Servicer will prepare and include the provided information in the related Investor Report.]

(a) The Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Trustees and the Rating Agencies, within 90 days of the end of each calendar year, an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer, stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding 12-month period ended December 31 (or, if applicable, such other period as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date in the case of the first such Officer’s Certificate) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such period, or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

(b) The Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustees, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than five Business Days thereafter, an Officer’s Certificate specifying any event which constitutes or, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become, a Servicer Termination Event.

Section 3.12. Annual Accountants’ Report.

(a) The Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or to the Depositor or their respective Affiliates) to deliver to the Depositor and, if required or requested, to the Trustees within 90 days of the end of each calendar year, a report with respect to the preceding 12-month period ended December 31 (or, if applicable, such other period as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date in the case of the first such report) or other report to the effect that such accountants have examined, on a test basis, evidence of the Servicer’s compliance with the covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

DISTRIBUTIONS; RESERVE FUND;
STATEMENTS TO SECURITYHOLDERS

Section 4.01. Establishment of Accounts.

(a) MBFS USA (as Servicer hereunder) shall establish the following Accounts, on or before the Closing Date, and maintain each as an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of the Indenture Trustee [(except that the Reserve Account shall be in the name of the Issuer)], at an Eligible Institution (which shall initially be the Securities Intermediary, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee) for the benefit of:

(i) the Securityholders, designated as the “Daimler Trucks Retail Trust 20[__]-[_] Collection Account, [●], Indenture Trustee” (the “Collection Account”);”) held in the name Indenture Trustee;

(ii) the Noteholders, designated as the “Daimler Trucks Retail Trust 20[__]-[_] Note Payment Account, [●], Indenture Trustee” (the “Note Payment Account”); and

(iii) the [Issuer, which has been pledged by the Issuer to the] Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, designated as the “Daimler Trucks Retail Trust 20[__]-[_] Reserve Fund, [●], Indenture Trustee” (the “Reserve Fund”);

in each case bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the related Persons. The Accounts shall be under the control of the Securities Intermediary on behalf of the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that the Servicer may direct the Indenture Trustee in writing to make (or cause to be made) deposits to and withdrawals from the applicable Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and the other Basic Documents. All monies deposited from time to time in the Accounts shall be held by, or in the name of, the Indenture Trustee as part of the Trust Property, and all deposits to and withdrawals therefrom shall be made only upon the terms and conditions of the Basic Documents. Amounts on deposit in each Account shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be invested, as directed in writing by the Servicer, by the Eligible Institution then maintaining such Account in Eligible Investments[; provided, however, that funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be invested only in Eligible Investments meeting the requirements of Part 246.4(b)(2) of Regulation RR, as determined solely by the Servicer].

(b) The Issuer and the Servicer agree that each Eligible Institution, with which an Account is established, will agree substantially as follows:

(i) it will comply with Entitlement Orders related to such account issued by the Indenture Trustee, without further consent by the Servicer;

(ii) until termination of this Agreement, it will not enter into any other agreement related to such Account pursuant to which it agrees to comply with Entitlement Orders of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee;

(iii) all Account Collateral delivered or credited to it in connection with such account and all proceeds thereof will be promptly credited to such Account;

(iv) it will treat all Account Collateral as Financial Assets; and

(v) all Account Collateral will be physically delivered (accompanied by any required endorsements) to, or credited to an account in the name of, the Eligible Institution maintaining the related Account in accordance with such Eligible Institution’s customary procedures such that such Eligible Institution establishes a Security Entitlement in favor of the Indenture Trustee with respect thereto over which the Indenture Trustee has Control.

(c) If on any Payment Date the sum of the amounts on deposit in the Collection Account for the related Collection Period and the Reserve Fund on such Payment Date equals or exceeds the Note Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all amounts due to the Servicer and the Trustees, all such amounts on deposit will be applied up to the amounts necessary to retire the Notes and pay such amounts due.

Section 4.02. Reserve Fund.

(a) On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit the Reserve Fund Deposit into the Reserve Fund from the net proceeds of the sale of the [Class A] Notes. The Reserve Fund Property has been conveyed by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.01(a). Pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer will pledge all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Reserve Fund and the Reserve Fund Property to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders to secure its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture.

(b) If the Reserve Fund is no longer to be maintained at the Securities Intermediary or the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall, with MBFS USA’s and the Indenture Trustee’s prior approval (not to be unreasonably withheld) and assistance as necessary, promptly (and in any case within ten Business Days) cause the Reserve Fund to be moved to another Eligible Institution. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies and the Trustees in writing of any change in the account number or location of the Reserve Fund.

(c) On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee will deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the Reserve Fund, from amounts collected on or in respect of the Receivables during the related Collection Period and not used on that Payment Date to pay the Required Payment Amount, the amount, if any, by which the Reserve Fund Required Amount for that Payment Date exceeds the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund on that Payment Date, after giving effect to all required withdrawals from the Reserve Fund on that Payment Date.

(d) On each Determination Date, the Servicer will determine the Reserve Fund Draw Amount, if any, for the related Payment Date. If the Reserve Fund Draw Amount for any Payment Date is greater than zero, the Indenture Trustee will withdraw, or cause to be withdrawn, from the Reserve Fund, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund and the Reserve Fund Draw Amount, and transfer the amount withdrawn to the Collection Account on the Deposit Date[; provided, however, that amounts released from the Reserve Account shall only be used in the manner permitted under §246.4(b)(3)(i) of Regulation RR, as determined solely by the Servicer].

(e) If the Reserve Fund Amount for any Payment Date (after giving effect to the withdrawal of the Reserve Fund Draw Amount for such Payment Date and the distribution described in the preceding sentence) exceeds the Reserve Fund Required Amount for such Payment Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee in writing to distribute or cause to be distributed on the related Deposit Date, the amount of such excess to the Collection Account for payment to the Depositor on such Payment Date. Any amount paid to the Depositor will no longer constitute a portion of the Trust Property and the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer hereby release, on each Payment Date, their security interest in, to and under the Reserve Fund Property distributed to the Depositor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, investment income for each Collection Period (net of losses and expenses) on amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall constitute Available Collections.

(f) If the Note Balance and all other amounts owing or to be distributed hereunder or under the Indenture to the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, the Trustees and the Servicer have been paid in full and the Issuer has been terminated, any remaining Reserve Fund Property shall be distributed to the Depositor.

Section 4.03. Monthly Remittance Condition.

(a) For so long as the Monthly Remittance Condition is (i) not met, the Servicer shall remit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables during any Collection Period to the Collection Account in immediately available funds no later than two Business Days after receipt and identification or (ii) met, the Servicer may remit all amounts received on or in respect of the Receivables during any Collection Period to the Collection Account in immediately available funds on or prior to the related Deposit Date.

(b) The Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account on or prior to the Closing Date all amounts received and identified by the Servicer on or in respect of the Receivables (including Net Liquidation Proceeds and all amounts received by the Servicer in connection with the repossession and sale of Financed Equipment (whether or not the related Receivable has been classified as a Defaulted Receivable)) during the period from but excluding the Cutoff Date to and including the second Business Day preceding the Closing Date.

(c) The Depositor and the Servicer may make any remittances pursuant to this Article with respect to a Collection Period net of distributions or reimbursements to be made to or by the Depositor or the Servicer with respect to such Collection Period; provided, however, that such obligations shall remain separate obligations, no party shall have a right of offset, and each such party shall account for all of the above described remittances and distributions as if the amounts were deposited or transferred separately.

Section 4.04. Collections. Subject to Sections 4.03, 4.06 and 4.07(a), the Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account all amounts received by the Servicer on or in respect of the Receivables (including Net Liquidation Proceeds and all amounts received by the Servicer in connection with the repossession and sale of Financed Equipment (whether or not the related Receivable has been classified as a Defaulted Receivable) but excluding payments with respect to Purchased Receivables) as soon as practicable and in no event after the close of business on the second Business Day after such amounts have been received and identified.

If such a calculation in respect of a Receivable results in a negative number, an amount equal to such negative amount shall be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of any outstanding Advances. In addition, in the event that a Receivable becomes a Defaulted Receivable, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not including interest for the current Collection Period) shall, up to the amount of outstanding Advances, be withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of such outstanding Advances. No Advances will be made with respect to the Principal Balance of Receivables. The Servicer shall not be required to make an Advance to the extent that the Servicer, in its sole discretion, shall determine that such Advance is likely to become a Nonrecoverable Advance.

On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall calculate the Reserve Fund Amount, the Reserve Fund Required Amount, the Reserve Fund Draw Amount and the amount, if any, by which the Reserve Fund Required Amount exceeds the Reserve Fund Amount (after giving effect to any deposits to the Reserve Fund and the withdrawal of the Reserve Fund Draw Amount for such Payment Date).

(b) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to apply (or cause to be applied) on the related Payment Date, the Available Funds for such Payment Date to make the related payments and deposits set forth in Section 2.08 of the Indenture.

(a) any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee the Investor Report for any Collection Period, which failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of two Business Days following the date such Investor Report was required to be delivered and the related Payment Date, or any failure by the Servicer to make any required payment or deposit under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied beyond the earlier of five Business Days following the date such payment or deposit was due or, in the case of a payment or deposit to be made no later than a Payment Date or the related Deposit Date, such Payment Date or Deposit Date, as applicable;

(b) any failure by the Servicer to duly observe or to perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement, which failure shall materially and adversely affect the rights of the Depositor or the Noteholders and shall continue unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given (i) to the Servicer by the Depositor or either Trustee or (ii) to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustees by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes] (or, after the Notes have been paid in full, the holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests then outstanding);

(c) any representation or warranty of the Servicer made in this Agreement, or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, other than any representation or warranty relating to a Receivable that has been purchased by the Servicer, proving to have been incorrect in any material respect as of the time when the same shall have been made, and the circumstance or condition in respect of which such representation or warranty was incorrect shall not have been eliminated or otherwise cured for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such circumstance or condition, requiring the same to be eliminated or cured, shall have been given (i) to the Servicer by the Depositor or either Trustee or (ii) to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustees by the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 25% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes]; or

(d) an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Servicer.

If a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes] (or holders of Certificates representing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests outstanding if the Notes are no longer Outstanding), in each case by providing a Servicer Termination Notice to the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by the Noteholders) may terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, that the indemnification obligations of the Servicer under Section 6.02 shall survive such termination.

On or after the receipt by the Servicer of a Servicer Termination Notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the Certificates, the Trust Property or otherwise, shall, without further action, pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer as may be appointed under Section 7.02; and, without limitation, the Trustees are hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the outgoing Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of the Receivable Files or the certificates of title to the Financed Equipment, or otherwise. The outgoing Servicer shall cooperate with the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and such Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the outgoing Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the outgoing Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the outgoing Servicer, in the Accounts or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables, all Receivable Files and all information or documents that the Indenture Trustee or such Successor Servicer may require, and the Successor Servicer shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or expenses to the extent that it cannot perform its obligations hereunder due to the failure of the predecessor Servicer to so deliver. In addition, the Servicer shall transfer its electronic records relating to the Receivables to the Successor Servicer in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request. All Transition Costs shall be paid by the outgoing Servicer (or by the initial Servicer if the outgoing Servicer is the Indenture Trustee acting on an interim basis) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses.

The Trustees shall have no obligation to notify the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or any other Person of the occurrence of any event specified in this Section prior to the continuance of such event through the end of any cure period specified in this Section.

Section 7.02. Appointment of Successor Servicer. Upon the resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05 or the termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01, the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the obligations and duties placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and shall provide such information in writing as reasonably requested by the Depositor to allow the Depositor to comply with its Exchange Act reporting obligations with respect to the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as Successor Servicer; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, as Successor Servicer, shall not, in any event, be required to make any Advances pursuant to Section 4.06 and shall have no obligations pursuant to Section 3.09 with respect to the fees and expenses of the Trustees, the fees and expenses of the attorneys for the Trustees, the fees and expenses of any custodian appointed by the Trustees, the fees and expenses of Independent accountants or expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports to the Securityholders. As compensation therefor, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation (whether payable out of the Collection Account or otherwise) as the Servicer would have been entitled to under this Agreement if no such resignation or termination had occurred, except that all collections on or in respect of the Receivables shall be deposited in the Collection Account within two Business Days of receipt and shall not be retained by the Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an Eligible Servicer as the successor to the terminated Servicer under this Agreement. In connection with such appointment, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such Successor Servicer out of Available Collections for each Payment Date as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that such compensation shall not be greater than that payable to MBFS USA as initial Servicer hereunder without the prior consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes] (or Holders of Certificates representing not less than 51% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interests then outstanding if the Notes are no longer Outstanding). The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession, including providing such information in writing as reasonably requested by the Depositor to allow the Depositor to comply with its Exchange Act reporting obligations with respect to such Successor Servicer. The Indenture Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties as Successor Servicer under this Section until a newly appointed Servicer shall have assumed the obligations and duties of the terminated Servicer under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer to act as Successor Servicer hereunder or the responsibilities of the Servicer set forth in Section 3.08 and 3.16.

Section 7.03. Effect of Servicing Transfer.

(a) After a transfer of servicing hereunder, the Indenture Trustee or Successor Servicer shall notify the Obligors to make directly to the Successor Servicer payments that are due under the Receivables after the effective date of such transfer.

(b) Except as provided in Section 7.02, after a transfer of servicing hereunder, the outgoing Servicer shall have no further obligations with respect to the administration, servicing, custody or collection of the Receivables and the Successor Servicer shall have all of such obligations, except that the outgoing Servicer will transmit or cause to be transmitted directly to the Successor Servicer for its own account, promptly on receipt and in the same form in which received, any amounts or items held by the outgoing Servicer (properly endorsed where required for the Successor Servicer to collect any such items) received as payments upon or otherwise in connection with the Receivables.

(c) Any Successor Servicer shall provide the Depositor with access to the Receivable Files and to the Successor Servicer’s records (whether written or automated) with respect to the Receivable Files. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Successor Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall affect the obligation of a Successor Servicer to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

(d) Any transfer of servicing hereunder shall not constitute an assumption by the related Successor Servicer of any liability of the related outgoing Servicer arising out of any breach by such outgoing Servicer of such outgoing Servicer’s duties hereunder prior to such transfer of servicing.

Section 7.04. Notification to Noteholders and Rating Agencies. Upon any notice of a Servicer Termination Event or upon any termination of, or any appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Noteholders, the Rating Agencies and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

Section 7.05. Waiver of Past Servicer Termination Events. The Noteholders evidencing not less than 51% of the Note Balance of the [Controlling Class][Notes] may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any Servicer Termination Event and its consequences, except an event resulting from the failure to make any required deposits to or payments from the Accounts in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event, such event shall cease to exist, and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right arising therefrom, except to the extent expressly so waived.

Section 7.06. Repayment of Advances. If the identity of the Servicer shall change, the outgoing Servicer shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for outstanding and unreimbursed Advances made pursuant to Section 4.06 by the outgoing Servicer.

(a) If on any Payment Date the Note Balance of the Notes shall be less than or equal to [__]% of the Initial Note Balance, after giving effect to all principal payments made on such Payment Date, the Servicer shall have the option to purchase on the following Payment Date the Trust Estate, other than the Accounts. To exercise such option, the Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Trustees and the Rating Agencies, not fewer than ten nor more than 30 days prior to the Payment Date on which such repurchase is to be effected and shall deposit into the Collection Account on the related Deposit Date an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Receivables (including Receivables that became Defaulted Receivables during the related Collection Period), less the Reserve Fund Amount, which funds shall be transferred from the Reserve Fund into the Collection Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not be permitted to exercise such option unless the amount to be deposited in the Collection Account (together with amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund and the Collection Account) pursuant to this Section is at least equal to the sum of all amounts due to the Servicer under this Agreement plus the Note Balance plus all accrued but unpaid interest (including any overdue interest) on the Notes plus all amounts due to the Servicer for any outstanding and unreimbursed Advances and Nonrecoverable Advances plus all accrued but unpaid Total Trustee Fees and Asset Representations Reviewer Fees. Upon such payment, the Seller shall succeed to and own all interests in and to the Issuer. The aggregate amount so deposited in respect of such Payment Date, plus, to the extent necessary, all amounts in the Reserve Fund, if any, shall be used to make payments in full to the Noteholders in the manner set forth in Article Four.

(b) Following the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture and the payment in full of the principal of and interest on the Notes, the Certificateholders shall succeed to the rights of the Noteholders hereunder and the Indenture Trustee shall continue to carry out its obligations hereunder with respect to the Certificateholders, including making distributions from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.08(c) and making withdrawals from the Reserve Fund in accordance with Sections 4.02 and 4.07.

Section 8.02. Termination. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the maturity or liquidation of the latest maturing Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received thereon in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Indenture, (ii) the payment to the Securityholders of all amounts required to be paid to them under the Basic Documents and (iii) the exercise by the Servicer of its rights under Section 8.01, the deposit into the Collection Account by the Servicer of the amount required to be deposited therein in accordance with Section 8.01 and the application of such amounts in accordance with Section 2.08 of the Indenture.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AS TO THE RECEIVABLES

The following representations and warranties shall be made in respect of the Receivables being transferred to the Issuer on the Closing Date as of the Cutoff Date.

(i) Characteristics of Receivables. Each Receivable (a) was originated in the United States by the Seller or a Dealer located in the United States in the ordinary course of the Seller’s or the applicable Dealer’s business in connection with the sale (or, in the case of certain Dealer Loans, lease) related Financed Equipment in accordance with the Seller’s credit policies as of the date of origination or acquisition of the related Receivable, (b) is payable in United States dollars, (c) has been fully and properly executed by the parties therefor and, if not originated by the Seller, has been validly assigned to the Seller, (d) has created a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority security interest in favor of the Seller in such Financed Equipment, which security interest shall be perfected and prior to any other interest in such Financed Equipment, and which security interest is assignable by the Seller and reassignable by the assignee, (e) contains customary and enforceable provisions such that the rights and remedies of the holder thereof are adequate for realization against the collateral of the benefits of the security, (f) shall, except as otherwise provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, provide for level Monthly Payments (provided that the payment in the first or last month in the life of the Receivable may be minimally different from the level payment) that fully amortize the Amount Financed over its original term and shall provide for a finance charge or shall yield interest at its stated interest rate with the exception of Receivables for which the final scheduled payment is a balloon payment, (g) shall provide for, in the event that such Receivable is prepaid, a payoff amount that fully pays the Principal Balance and includes accrued but unpaid interest at least through the date prior to the date of prepayment in an amount calculated by using an interest rate at least equal to its stated interest rate, (h) is a Simple Interest Receivable, (i) is due from an Obligor with a primary business address within the United States or its territories, and (j) to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, is not assumable by another Person in a manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor’s obligations to the Seller with respect to such Receivable.

(ii) Compliance with Law. Each Receivable complied at the time it was originated or made, and at the Cutoff Date complies, in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, State and, to the best knowledge of the Seller, local laws, rulings and regulations thereunder (including usury laws).

(iii) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the related Obligor, enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by equitable limitations on the availability of specific remedies, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a Proceeding in equity or at law.

A-1

(iv) No Government Obligor. No Receivable is due from the United States or any State or any agency, department, subdivision or instrumentality thereof.

(v) Obligor Bankruptcy. To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, at the Cutoff Date, no Obligor is the subject of a bankruptcy Proceeding.

(vi) Security Interest in Financed Equipment. Immediately prior to the transfer of the Receivables by the Seller to the Depositor, each Receivable was secured by a valid, binding and enforceable first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Seller in the related Financed Equipment or all necessary action with respect to such Receivable has been taken to perfect a first priority security interest in the related Financed Equipment in favor of the Seller, which security interest has been validly assigned by the Seller to the Depositor. The Servicer has received, or will receive within 180 days after the Closing Date, the original certificate of title for each item of Financed Equipment or notice from the applicable State entity issuing such certificate of title, that such certificate of title is being processed (other than any Financed Equipment not subject to a certificate of title statute or vehicle registration law or is subject to a certificate of title statute or vehicle registration law that does not require that the original certificate of title for such Financed Equipment be delivered to the Seller).

(vii) Receivables in Force. No Receivable shall have been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor shall any Financed Equipment have been released in whole or in part from the Lien granted by the related Receivable.

(viii) No Waivers. No provision of a Receivable shall have been waived in such a manner that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto.

(ix) No Amendments. No Receivable shall have been amended or modified in such a manner that the total number of Monthly Payments has been increased or decreased or that the related Amount Financed has been increased or decreased or that such Receivable fails to meet all of the other representations and warranties made by the Seller herein with respect thereto.

(x) No Defenses. No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the operation of any of the terms of any Receivable, or the exercise of any right thereunder, will not render such Receivable unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and the Seller has not received written notice of the assertion with respect to any Receivable of any such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense.

(xi) No Liens. No Liens or claims have been filed, including Liens for work, labor or materials or for unpaid local, State or United States federal taxes relating to any Financed Equipment that shall be prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in such Financed Equipment granted by the related Receivable.

(xii) No Defaults; Repossessions. Except for payment defaults that, as of the Cutoff Date, have been continuing for a period of not more than 30 days, no default, breach or violation under the terms of any Receivable, permitting acceleration, shall have occurred as of the Cutoff Date and no continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach or violation under the terms of any Receivable, permitting acceleration, shall have arisen; and the Seller shall not have waived any of the foregoing except as otherwise permitted hereunder. On or prior to the Cutoff Date, no Financed Equipment has been repossessed.

(xiii) Insurance. Each Receivable requires the related Obligor to obtain physical damage insurance covering the related Financed Equipment and to maintain such insurance.

(xiv) Title. It is the intention of the Seller that the transfers and assignments contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement constitute a sale of the Receivables by the Seller to the Purchaser and that the beneficial interest in and title to the Receivables not be part of the debtor’s estate in the event of the appointment of a receiver or conservator for the Seller under any Insolvency Law; no Receivable has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Seller to any Person other than the Purchaser; immediately prior to the transfer and assignment contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Seller had good and marketable title to each Receivable free and clear of all Liens and rights of others, except for Permitted Liens and Liens that shall be released on or before the Closing Date; immediately upon the transfer and assignment thereof, the Purchaser shall have good and marketable title to each Receivable, free and clear of all Liens and rights of others other than Permitted Liens; and the transfer and assignment herein contemplated has been perfected under the UCC.

(xv) Lawful Assignment. No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of such Receivable under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the pledge of such Receivables hereunder, thereunder or under the Indenture is unlawful, void or voidable or under which such Receivable would be rendered void or voidable as a result of any such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or pledge. The Seller has not entered into any agreement with any account debtor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the Receivables.

(xvi) One Original. There shall be only one original executed copy of each Receivable that constitutes “tangible chattel paper”.

(xvii) Principal Balance. As of the Cutoff Date, each Receivable had a remaining Principal Balance of not less than $[●].

(xviii) Original Term to Maturity. Each Receivable had an original term to maturity of not more than [●] months and not less than [●] months and, based on the number of remaining Monthly Payments, a remaining term to maturity as of the Cutoff Date, of not more than [●] months and not less than [●] months.

(xix) Contract Rate. Each Receivable has a stated interest rate of at least [●]%.

A-3

(xx) Marking Records. As of the Closing Date, the Seller will have caused its computer and accounting records relating to each Receivable to be marked to show that the Receivables have been sold to the Purchaser by the Seller and transferred and assigned by the Purchaser to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and pledged by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

(xxi) UCC. Each Receivable constitutes “tangible chattel paper” or, in the case of Receivables relating to Dealer Loans, an “account”, instrument” or “payment intangible” within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of origination.

(xxii) Final Scheduled Payment Date. No Receivable has a final scheduled payment date later than six months prior to the Class [A-4][B] Final Scheduled Payment Date.

(xxiii) No Fraud or Misrepresentation. Each Receivable that was originated by a Dealer and was sold by the Dealer to the Seller, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, was so originated and sold without fraud or misrepresentation on the part of such Dealer in either case.

(xxiv) No Impairment. The Seller has not done anything to convey any right to any Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments due under a Receivable or otherwise to impair the rights of the Depositor in any Receivable or the proceeds thereof.

(xxv) Servicing. Each Receivable has been serviced in conformity with all Applicable Laws, rules and regulation and in conformity with the Seller’s policies and procedures which are consistent with customary, prudent industry standards.

(xxvi) No Consent. To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, no notice to or consent from any Obligor is necessary to effect the acquisition of the Receivables by the Purchaser or the Issuer or the pledge of the Receivables by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee.
