Ladies and Gentlemen:

1. Introductory. American Honda Receivables Corp., a California corporation (the “Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to cause the Honda Auto Receivables 2011-1 Owner Trust (the “Trust”) to sell $299,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 0.3248% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1 (the “Class A-1 Notes”), $265,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 0.65% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-2 (the “Class A-2 Notes”), $281,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 1.13% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-3 (the “Class A-3 Notes) and $155,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 1.80% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-4 (the “Class A-4 Notes” and together with the Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes and the Class A-3, the “Notes”) to the several underwriters set forth on Schedule A (each, an “Underwriter”), for which Xxxxxxx Lynch, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC are each acting as a representative (in such capacity, each a “Representative” and collectively, the “Representatives”), pursuant to the terms of this underwriting agreement dated February 17, 2011 by and among the Company, American Honda Finance Corporation (“AHFC”) and Xxxxxxx Lynch, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, acting on behalf of themselves and as Representatives for the several Underwriters (this “Agreement”). The Notes will be issued pursuant to the Indenture, to be dated February 24, 2011 (the “Indenture”), between the Trust and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Indenture Trustee”).

Concurrently with the issuance and sale of the Notes as contemplated herein, the Trust will issue $25,646,787.94 aggregate principal amount of certificates of beneficial interest (the “Certificates”), each representing an interest in the Owner Trust Estate. The Company will retain the Certificates. The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, to be dated February 24, 2011 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Company, Citibank, National Association, as owner trustee (in such capacity, the “Owner Trustee”) and Citigroup Trust-Delaware, National Association, as Delaware trustee (in such capacity, the “Delaware Trustee”). The Certificates are subordinated to the Notes.

The assets of the Trust will include, among other things, a pool of retail installment sale and conditional sale contracts secured by new and used Honda and Acura motor vehicles (the “Receivables”) and certain monies due thereunder on or after February 1, 2011 (the “Cutoff Date”), such Receivables to be sold to the Trust by the Company and to be serviced for the Trust by AHFC (or, in its capacity as servicer, the “Servicer”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to be dated February 24, 2011 (the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), by and among the Trust, the Company and the Servicer or, if not defined therein, in the Indenture, the Trust Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreement, to be dated February 24, 2011 between AHFC and the Company (the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), as the case may be. As used herein, “Basic Documents” shall have the meaning specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

At or prior to the time when sales to investors of the Notes were first made to investors by the several Underwriters, which was approximately 12:50 p.m. on February 17, 2011 (the “Time of Sale”), the Company had prepared the following information (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”): (i) the preliminary prospectus supplement dated February 14, 2011, relating to the Notes and containing all information to be included in the Final Prospectus (as defined below) other than pricing related information and accompanied by the base prospectus dated February 14, 2011 (together, along with information referred to under the caption “Static Pools” therein regardless of whether it is deemed a part of the Registration Statement or Final Prospectus, the “Preliminary Prospectus”) and (ii) a free writing prospectus, dated February 14, 2011 (the “Ratings Free Writing Prospectus”). If, subsequent to the Time of Sale and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), the Company wishes to convey additional or changed information in order to make the Time of Sale Information, in light of the circumstances under which statements in the Time of Sale Information were made, not misleading, and as a result investors in the Notes elect to terminate their old “Contracts of Sale” (within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”)) for any Notes and enter into new Contracts of Sale with the Underwriters, then “Time of Sale Information” will refer to the information conveyed to investors at the time of entry into the first such new Contract of Sale, in an amended Preliminary Prospectus approved by the Company and the Representatives that corrects such material misstatements or omissions (a “Corrected Prospectus”) and “Time of Sale” will refer to the time and date on which such new Contracts of Sale were entered into.

The Company hereby agrees with the several Underwriters as follows:

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company and AHFC. The Company and AHFC, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to, and agree with, the several Underwriters that:

(a) A registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-150095), including a prospectus, relating to the Notes has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and has become effective and is still effective as of the date hereof. A Preliminary Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Rules and Regulations”). A Ratings Free Writing Prospectus was filed pursuant to Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations within the time period required thereby. A final prospectus supplement dated the date hereof, containing the same information as the Preliminary Prospectus, but including the pricing related information and accompanied by the base prospectus dated February 17, 2011 (together, along with information referred to under the caption “Static Pools” therein regardless of whether it is deemed a part of the Registration Statement or Final Prospectus, the “Final Prospectus,” and together with the Preliminary Prospectus and any Corrected Prospectus, the “Prospectus”) will be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations (“Rule 424(b)”) within the time period required thereby. Such registration statement, as amended as of its effective date (including without limitation each deemed effective date with respect to the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the Rules and Regulations) is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” Except as described in this Section 2(a) and in Section 5A(b), no “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations relating to the Notes has been or will be used by or on behalf of the Company.

(b) On the effective date of the Registration Statement (including without limitation each deemed effective date with respect to the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the Rules and Regulations) relating to the Notes, such Registration Statement conformed and on the Closing Date will conform in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations and did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and as of each such date, such Registration Statement conforms in all respects to the requirements contained in the Act and the Rules and Regulations. With regard to the Preliminary Prospectus, as of the date of the Preliminary Prospectus and as of the Time of Sale, with regard to the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, as of the date of the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, as of the Time of Sale and as of the Closing Date, and with regard to the Final Prospectus, as of the date of the Final Prospectus and as of the Closing Date, each Prospectus will conform in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, and none of such documents includes or will include any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The two preceding sentences do not apply with respect to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined herein).

(c) The Time of Sale Information, at the Time of Sale, did not, and at the Closing Date will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that the Company makes no representation and warranty with respect to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined herein).

(d) The Notes are “asset backed securities” within the meaning of, and satisfy the requirements for use of, Form S-3 under the Act.

(e) In addition to the representations contained in subclause (b) hereto, the documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and will comply in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as applicable, and the rules and regulations thereunder; and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, when such documents are filed with the Commission, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the Rules and Regulations.

(f) The Company is not, and on the date on which the first bona fide offer of the Notes is made, will not be an “ineligible issuer” as defined in Rule 405.

(g) Each of the Company and AHFC has been duly incorporated and is a validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of California, with full power and authority (corporate and other) to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Prospectus; and each of the Company and AHFC is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing in all other jurisdictions in which its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification.

(h) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing with, any governmental agency or body or any court is required to be obtained or made by the Company, AHFC or the Trust for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Basic Documents in connection with the issuance of the Notes and the Certificates and the sale by the Company of the Notes, except such as have been obtained and made under the Act, such as may be required under state securities laws and the filing of any financing statements required to perfect the Company’s, the Trust’s and the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the Receivables, which financing statements will be filed in the appropriate offices prior to the Closing Date (as such term is defined in Section 3).

(i) Neither the Company nor AHFC is (i) in breach or violation of its Articles of Incorporation or By-laws, (ii) in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or its properties are bound, or (iii) in violation of any applicable law, statute, regulation or ordinance or any governmental body having jurisdiction over it, in each case, that could have a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated herein or in the Basic Documents. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Basic Documents by the Company and AHFC, the issuance of the Notes and the Certificates by the Trust, the Company’s causing the sale by the Trust of the Notes and the compliance by the Company and AHFC with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof will not, subject to obtaining any consents or approvals as may be required under the securities or “blue sky” laws of various jurisdictions, result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or AHFC or any of their respective properties, or any agreement or instrument to which the Company or AHFC is a party or by which the Company or AHFC is bound or to which any of the properties of the Company or AHFC is subject, or the Articles of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company and AHFC, and AHFC has full power and authority to cause the Trust to authorize and issue the Notes and the Company has full power and authority to cause the Trust to issue the Certificates and to sell the Notes as contemplated by this Agreement, the Indenture and the Trust Agreement, and each of the Company and AHFC has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the Basic Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(j) On the Closing Date, the Company will have directed the Owner Trustee to authenticate and execute the Certificates and, when delivered and paid for pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Certificates will have been duly issued and delivered and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Trust, entitled to the benefits provided in the Trust Agreement and enforceable in accordance with their terms.

(k) Except as disclosed in each Prospectus, there are no pending actions, suits or proceedings against or affecting the Company or AHFC or any of their respective properties that, if determined adversely to the Company or AHFC, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or other), business or results of operations of the Company or AHFC, respectively, or would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company or AHFC to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the other Basic Documents to which it is a party, or which are otherwise material in the context of the issuance and sale of the Notes or the issuance of the Certificates; and no such actions, suits or proceedings are threatened or, to the Company’s or AHFC’s knowledge, contemplated.

(l) As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of the Company and AHFC contained in the Basic Documents will be true and correct.

(m) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Company and AHFC.

(n) The Company has authorized the conveyance of the Receivables to the Trust, and, as of the Closing Date, the Company has directed the Trust to execute and issue the Notes and the Certificates and to sell the Notes.

(o) The Company’s assignment and delivery of the Receivables to the Trust as of the Closing Date will vest in the Trust all of the Company’s right, title and interest therein, subject to no prior lien, mortgage, security interest, pledge, adverse claim, charge or other encumbrance.

(p) The Trust’s assignment of the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture will vest in the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, a first priority perfected security interest therein, subject to no prior lien, mortgage, security interest, pledge, adverse claim, charge or other encumbrance.

(q) The computer tape of the Receivables created as of February 1, 2011, and made available to each Representative by the Servicer was complete and accurate as of the date thereof and includes an identifying description of the Receivables that are listed on Schedule A to the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

(r) Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Basic Documents, the Notes and the Certificates and any other agreements contemplated herein or therein shall have been paid or will be paid by the Company at or prior to the Closing Date to the extent then due.

(s) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Basic Documents, and the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof, will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Company or AHFC pursuant to the terms of, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, guarantee, lease financing agreement or similar agreement or instrument under which the Company or AHFC is a debtor or guarantor.

3. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of the Notes. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to cause the Trust to sell to the Underwriters, and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Trust, at a purchase price of, in the case of (i) the Class A-1 Notes, 99.85000% of the principal amount thereof, (ii) the Class A-2 Notes, 99.74675% of the principal amount thereof, (iii) the Class A-3 Notes, 99.69553% of the principal amount thereof and (iv) the Class A-4 Notes, 99.62337% of the principal amount thereof, the respective principal amounts of each Class of the Notes set forth opposite the names of the Underwriters in Schedule A hereto.

4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters propose to offer the Notes for sale to the public as set forth in the Prospectus, and each Underwriter represents, warrants and covenants, severally and not jointly, to the Company and AHFC that: (i) it has not offered or sold and, prior to the expiry of the period of six months from the Closing Date, will not offer or sell any Notes to persons in the United Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or who it is reasonable to expect will acquire, hold, manage or dispose of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses, or otherwise in circumstances that have not resulted and will not result in an offer to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, as amended, (ii) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom, (iii) it is a person of a kind described in Articles 19 or 49 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2001, as amended (the “Financial Promotion Order”) and (iv) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated, and will only communicate or cause to be communicated, in the United Kingdom any document received by it in connection with the issue of the Notes to a person who is of a kind described in Articles 19 or 49 of the Financial Promotion Order or who is a person to whom such document may otherwise lawfully be communicated.

5A. Certain Agreements of the Company and AHFC. The Company (and AHFC solely with respect to clause (m) below) agrees with the several Underwriters:

(a) The Company will file the Final Prospectus, properly completed, with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with subparagraph (2) (or, if applicable and if consented to by each Representative, subparagraph (5)) of Rule 424(b) no later than the second business day following the date it is first used. The Company will advise the Representatives promptly of any such filing pursuant to Rule 424(b).

(b) The Company shall file the final pricing information, which may be posted on a Bloomberg screen or distributed via Bloomberg, as a free writing prospectus.

(c) The Company will advise the Representatives promptly, in writing, of any proposal to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and will not effect such amendment or supplementation without each Representative’s reasonable consent; and the Company will also advise the Representatives promptly of any amendment or supplementation of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and of the institution by the Commission of any stop order proceedings in respect of the Registration Statement and will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting, if issued.

(d) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Notes is required to be delivered under the Act in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Prospectus to comply with the Act, the Company will promptly notify the Representatives of such event and will promptly prepare and file with the Commission (subject to the Representatives’ prior review pursuant to Section 5A(c)), at its own expense, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission, or an amendment which will effect such compliance. Neither the Representatives’ consent to, nor the Underwriters’ delivery of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.

(e) [Reserved].

(f) The Company will furnish to the Underwriters copies of each Prospectus, the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as each Representative reasonably requests. The Final Prospectus shall be furnished on or prior to 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the business day following the execution and delivery of this Agreement. All other such documents shall be so furnished as soon as available. The Company will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Underwriters all such documents.

(g) The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Notes for offering and sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions as each Representative may reasonably designate and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Notes; provided that in connection therewith the Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

(h) For a period from the date of this Agreement until the retirement of the Notes, the Company will furnish, to the extent such documents are required to be delivered pursuant to the relevant sections described within this section, (i) upon request, to each Underwriter copies of each certificate and the annual statements of compliance delivered to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture and Sections 3.10 and 3.11 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the annual independent certified public accountant’s servicing reports furnished to the Trust pursuant to Section 3.12 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, via electronic mail or by first-class mail as soon as practicable, and in due course, after such statements and reports are furnished to the Indenture Trustee or the Trust, as the case may be, and (ii) to each Representative and, upon request, to each of the other Underwriters, such other forms of periodic certificates or reports as may be delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Noteholders under the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the other Basic Documents.

(i) So long as any Note is outstanding, the Company will furnish to each Representative by electronic mail or first-class mail as soon as practicable, except as otherwise provided to each Representative pursuant to Section 5A(h) above, (i) all documents distributed, or caused to be distributed, by the Company to the Noteholders, (ii) all documents filed or caused to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act or any order of the Commission thereunder and (iii) such other information in the possession of the Company concerning the Trust as each Representative from time to time may reasonably request.

(k) To the extent, if any, that the rating provided with respect to the Notes by any hired NRSRO is conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other action by the Company, the Company shall furnish such documents and take any such other action.

(l) On or before the Closing Date, the Company shall annotate and indicate unambiguously in the computer records of the Company relating to the Receivables to show the Trust’s absolute ownership of the Receivables, and from and after the Closing Date the Company shall not take any action inconsistent with the Trust’s ownership of such Receivables, other than as permitted by the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

(m) AHFC will comply, and will cause the Company, to comply with the representations or certifications made in any 17g-5 Certification delivered to a hired NRSRO; provided, however, that failure to comply with any representations or certifications in a 17g-5 Certification that would not have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders will not be considered a breach of this Section 5A(m).

5B. Certain Agreements of the Underwriters. Each of the several Underwriters, for itself only, represents, warrants and agrees with the Company as follows:

(a) Other than the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, each Underwriter has not conveyed and will not convey, without the Company’s prior written approval, to any potential investor in the Notes any other written material of any kind relating to any “issuer information” as defined in Rule 433(h)(2) of the Act, or the Notes that would constitute a “prospectus” or a “free writing prospectus,” each as defined in the Act (“Prohibited Materials”), including, but not limited to the materials constituting a “road show” presentation to Potential Investors (other than use of such materials as part of the road show itself) and any “ABS informational and computational materials” within the meaning of Item 1101(a) of Regulation AB promulgated by the Commission under the Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; provided, however, that each Underwriter may convey to one or more of its Potential Investors (the following, collectively, “Permitted Information”): (i) information permitted in Rule 134 under the Act or previously included in the Preliminary Prospectus, (ii) the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, and (iii) a free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule 405 under the Act, containing only: (a) syndicate structure and a column or other entry showing the status of the subscriptions for each class of the Notes (both for the issuance as a whole and for each Underwriters’ specific retention) and confirmation information, (b) expected settlement date and expected and actual pricing parameters of the Notes, (c) information relating to the class, size, rating, price, CUSIP, coupon, yield, spread, benchmark, status of the Notes, the expected final payment date, the trade date and payment window of one or more classes of Notes, the weighted average life of any class of Notes, pricing prepayment speeds and clean up call information, and any credit enhancement expected to be provided or any derivatives entered into in connection with the Notes, (d) expected maturities of any class of Notes, (e) the eligibility of the Notes to be purchased by XXXXX plans and (f) Intex.cdi files containing data derived from information available in the Prospectus; provided further, that, in the case of the Permitted Information contained in clauses (i) and (ii), such Permitted Information is posted on a Bloomberg screen or distributed via Bloomberg and, in the case of clause (ii), other than the final pricing terms, which will be posted on a Bloomberg screen or distributed via Bloomberg, such free writing prospectus shall not contain information that would require the issuer to file such free writing prospectus pursuant to Rule 433 under the Act.

(b) Prior to entering into any Contract of Sale with a prospective investor, the applicable Underwriter shall convey the Time of Sale Information to the prospective investor. The Underwriter shall maintain sufficient records to document its conveyance of the Time of Sale Information to the potential investor prior to the formation of the related Contract of Sale and shall maintain such records as required by the Rules and Regulations.

(c) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, covenants with the Company and AHFC that on or prior to the Closing Date, it will not provide to any hired NRSRO or any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (within the meaning of the Exchange Act), any information, written or oral, relating to the Trust, the Notes, the Receivables, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the other Basic Documents or any other information, that could be reasonably determined to be relevant to determining an initial credit rating for the Notes (as contemplated by Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(C)), without the participation of a representative of AHFC.

(d) Each Representative shall have received an opinion of Xxxx, Forward, Xxxxxxxx & Scripps LLP, special California counsel to the Company and AHFC, or of such other California counsel satisfactory to the Representatives, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and in form and scope to counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that:

(i) Each of AHFC and the Company has the corporate power and corporate authority to execute and deliver the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and to incur its obligations set forth therein.

(ii) Each of AHFC and the Company has the corporate power and corporate authority to execute and deliver the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and to incur its obligations set forth therein.

(iii) Each of AHFC and the Company has the corporate power and corporate authority to carry on its business as described in the Prospectus.

The execution and delivery by the Company of each of the Basic Documents to which the Company is a party, and the incurring by the Company of the obligations of the Company thereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and each of the Basic Documents to which the Company is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

(v) The direction by AHFC to the Indenture Trustee to authenticate the Notes, as set forth in a letter dated as of the Closing Date, and the direction by AHFC to the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee for authentication the Notes, as set forth in a letter dated as of the Closing Date, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of AHFC.

(vi) The direction by the Company to the Owner Trustee to authenticate and deliver the Certificates, as set forth in a letter dated as of the Closing Date, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.

(vii) The execution and delivery by AHFC of each of the Basic Documents to which AHFC is a party, and the incurring by AHFC of the obligations of AHFC thereunder, do not violate any federal or California statute, rule or regulation applicable to AHFC. The execution and delivery by the Company of each of the Basic Documents to which the Company is a party, and the incurring by the Company of the obligations of the Company thereunder, do not violate any federal or California statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company.

(viii) Assuming that AHFC follows its standard operating procedures for creating and perfecting security interests in California Financed Vehicles, as described in an Officers’ Certificate executed by AHFC and attached hereto, and relying solely on such Officers’ Certificate with respect to such facts (and AHFC has not informed us that it has not followed, or that it will not continue to follow, its standard operating procedures in connection with the creation and perfection of security interests in the California Financed Vehicles), AHFC has acquired or will acquire a perfected security interest in each California Financed Vehicle that will be prior to any other security interest therein created under Division 9 of the California Uniform Commercial Code.

(ix) No filing or other action is necessary to maintain the perfection of the security interest in the California Financed Vehicles created by the California Receivables and acquired by the Company, the Trust or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable. Such counsel may note that unless and until the obligors under the California Receivables receive effective notice of the transfer to the Company, the Trust or the Indenture Trustee (as the case may be) and of the assignment of the rights to payment, such obligors are entitled to make payments to and accept releases and discharges from AHFC, and, for so long as AHFC is named as the legal owner and lienholder on any certificate of title with respect to any California Financed Vehicle, AHFC has the power to release the security interest in such California Financed Vehicle or to make another assignment of such security interest to an assignee that becomes the lienholder named on the related certificate of title, which power may be improperly exercised either through fraud or inadvertence;

(x) No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any federal or California governmental authority, or any order or decree, or any modification of any order or decree, from any California court, is required for the execution and delivery by each of AHFC and the Company of each of the Basic Documents to which it is a party or the incurring of its obligations thereunder, or if required, the requisite consent, approval, or authorization has been obtained, the requisite filing has been accomplished, or the requisite action has been taken.

(e) Each Representative shall have received an opinion of Xxxxxx & Bird LLP, special counsel to the Company and AHFC, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and in form and scope to counsel for the Underwriters, to the effect that:

(ii) when the Notes have been validly executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Trust enforceable in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture, except that enforceability thereof may be subject to (a) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity;

(iii) the execution, delivery and performance by each of the Company and AHFC of the Basic Documents to which it is a party will not violate or result in a material breach of any of the terms of or constitute a material default under or (except as contemplated in the Basic Documents) result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance on any property or assets of the Company or AHFC, pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement described in an Officer’s Certificate or Certificates and schedules attached to such opinion (collectively, the “Material Agreements”). As to those Material Agreements which by their terms are or may be governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than New York, such counsel may assume that such Material Agreements are governed by the laws of the State of New York for purposes of such opinion. In addition, and in reliance upon a certificate of AHFC’s Chief Financial Officer or other accounting officer as to compliance with financial covenants, such counsel may exclude from the scope of such opinion any potential violation of financial covenants contained in such Material Agreements;

(iv) no consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing with, any New York or federal governmental entity is required for the execution and delivery by either of the Company or AHFC of the Basic Documents to which it is a party or the performance by either of the Company or AHFC of the transactions contemplated thereby where the failure to make or obtain such consent or approval of, notice to, filing with, or other action by, or take such action would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such entity to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents, except for (i) the filing of UCC financing statements, (ii) filings and other actions that may be required pursuant to state securities or blue sky laws, and (iii) those that have already been obtained, made or taken;

(vi) such counsel has no reason to believe that the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, as of the date of the Final Prospectus or as of the Closing Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that the Time of Sale Information, together with the pricing information, as of its date, as of the Time of Sale and as of the Closing Date, or the Final Prospectus as of its date or as of the Closing Date, contains or contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; it being understood that such counsel need make no statement or express any opinion as to the financial statements or other financial, numerical, statistical and quantitative information contained in the Registration Statement or a Prospectus, and that for purposes of determining the date of the Preliminary or Final Prospectus, it shall be the date stated on the respective prospectus supplements thereto;

(vii) the Registration Statement and each Prospectus complies in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; and such counsel does not know of any contracts or documents of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or each Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement that are not described and filed as required; it being understood that such counsel need express no opinion as to the financial statements or other financial, numerical, statistical and quantitative information contained in the Registration Statement or a Prospectus; and

(viii) each Basic Document (other than the Trust Agreement) to which it is a party is, when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of each of the Company and AHFC, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be limited by (x) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally, (y) general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, and (z) in the case of this Agreement and with respect to rights of indemnity thereunder, limitations of public policy under applicable securities laws;

(ix) assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust, the Indenture constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Trust, enforceable against the Trust in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) except, as applicable, that such counsel need not express an opinion with respect to indemnification or contribution provisions which may be deemed to be in violation of the public policy underlying any law or regulation; and

(x) neither the Trust nor the Company is an “investment company” or under the “control” of an “investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) and neither the Trust nor the Company is required to register under the Investment Company Act.

(ii) the Trust has the power and authority under the Delaware Act and the Trust Agreement to execute and deliver the Basic Documents to which the Trust is a party, to issue the Notes and the Certificates, to grant the Collateral (as such term is defined in the Indenture) to the Indenture Trustee as security for the Notes and to perform its obligations under each of said documents;

(iv) to the extent that Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware (the “Delaware UCC”) is applicable (without regard to conflicts of laws principles), and assuming that the security interest created by the Indenture in the Collateral has been duly created and has attached, upon the filing of the financing statements set forth in such opinion (the “Delaware Financing Statements”) with the Office of the Secretary of State (Uniform Commercial Code Division) (the “Division”), the Indenture Trustee will have a perfected security interest in the Trust’s rights in that portion of the Collateral described in the Delaware Financing Statements that may be perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement with the Division (the “Filing Collateral”) and the proceeds thereof (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC);

(ix) under 3805(b) of the Delaware Act, no creditor of any Certificateholder (as defined in the Trust Agreement) shall have any right to obtain possession of, otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the property of the Trust except in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement;

(xi) under 3808(a) and (b) of the Delaware Act, the Trust may not be terminated or revoked by any Certificateholder, and the dissolution, termination or bankruptcy of any Certificateholder shall not result in the termination or dissolution of the Trust, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement.

(r) Each Representative shall have received an opinion of Xxxxxx & Bird LLP, special counsel to the Company, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and in form and scope to counsel for the Underwriters to the effect that upon execution and delivery of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture and the Control Agreement, the provisions of the Indenture and the Control Agreement will be effective to create a valid security interest in favor of the Indenture Trustee, to secure payment of the Notes, in the Trust’s rights in all “security entitlements” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) with respect to “financial assets” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC) now or hereafter credited to each Securities Account and in all “security entitlements” (within the meaning of the Federal Book-Entry Regulations) with respect to Federal Book-Entry Securities now or hereafter credited to each Securities Account (such security entitlements, collectively, the “Security Entitlements”); the provisions of the Indenture and the Control Agreement will be effective to perfect the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Security Entitlements; and no security interest of any other creditor of the Trust will be prior to the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Security Entitlements.

(s) Each Class of the Notes shall have been rated in the highest rating category by each hired NRSRO.

(t) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Certificates shall have been issued to the Company.

(w) As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of the Company and AHFC contained in the Basic Documents will be true and correct.

The Company will furnish each Representative with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representatives reasonably request.

The Representatives may, in their sole discretion, waive on behalf of the Underwriters compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Representatives hereunder.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company and AHFC will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and its respective directors, officers, employees and controlling persons against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated in the Registration Statement, each Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any information contained in any underwriter free writing prospectus which information (i) is Permitted Information, (ii) is also included in the Preliminary Prospectus (other than Underwriter Information) and to which AHFC has consented in writing to be included in such underwriter free writing prospectus, or (iii) has been provided by the Company or AHFC to each Representative specifically for inclusion in any such underwriter free writing prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that neither the Company nor AHFC will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined in subsection (b) below).

(b) Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company and AHFC against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or AHFC may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated in the Registration Statement, each Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or AHFC in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: in the Final Prospectus, the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the third paragraph under the caption “Underwriting” and in each Prospectus, the information contained in the third paragraph, the second sentence of the fifth paragraph, and the seventh paragraph under the caption “Underwriting” (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”).

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and after acceptance by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, an indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel for the indemnified party will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party). No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party if indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes (i) an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) The obligations of the Company or AHFC under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Company or AHFC may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company or AHFC, to each officer of the Company and AHFC who has signed the Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company or AHFC within the meaning of the Act.

8. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) The Underwriters have agreed solely to act as Underwriters in connection with the sale of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company and the Representatives or any of the Underwriters has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether any Underwriter has advised or is advising the Company on other matters;

(b) the price of the Notes set forth in this Agreement was established by the Company following discussions and arms-length negotiations with the Representatives and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c) it has been advised that the Underwriters and their affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that the Underwriters have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and

(d) it waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against any Underwriter for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty arising out of this Agreement and agrees that the Underwriters shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, employees or creditors of the Company.

9. Default of Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in their obligations to purchase Notes hereunder on the Closing Date and the aggregate principal amount of Notes that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of Notes that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, the Representatives may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Notes by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the nondefaulting Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate principal amount of Notes with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Notes that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Notes by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except as provided in Section 10. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or AHFC or their respective officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or AHFC or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Notes. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 or if for any reason the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Company shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5A and the respective obligations of the Company, AHFC and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 6(c), the Company and AHFC, jointly and severally, will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Notes.

11. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered by hand or overnight delivery service (FedEx or United Parcel Service), sent by electronic mail where specified in this Agreement or sent by facsimile and confirmed to the Representatives, (i) in the case of Xxxxxxx Lynch, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, at Hearst Tower, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000, Attention: Xxxxxxx X.

12. No Bankruptcy Petition. Each Underwriter agrees that, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of all securities issued by the Company or by a trust for which the Company was the depositor, which securities were rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, the Company any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under any Federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 10, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

14. Representation of Underwriters. Each Representative will act for the several Underwriters in connection with this financing, and any action under this Agreement taken by the Representatives will be binding upon all the Underwriters.

15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

16. Applicable Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in New York City for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties hereto hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such courts lack jurisdiction over such party, and agrees not to plead or claim, in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement in any of the aforesaid courts, that any such court lacks jurisdiction over such party. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
