Financed Vehicles not financed by NFC);
(k) No Default. There has been no default, breach, violation or event

-------
cause to be executed and filed such continuation and other statements, all in

title and interest of NFRRC in, to and under the Receivables and Related

- 11 -
SECTION 5.04. Repurchase Events. By its execution of the Further Transfer
-----------------
and Servicing Agreements to which it is a party, NFC shall be deemed to
acknowledge the assignment by NFRRC of such of its right, title and interest in,
to and under this Agreement to the Issuer as shall be provided in the Further
Transfer and Servicing Agreements. NFC hereby covenants and agrees with NFRRC
for the benefit of NFRRC and the Interested Parties, that in the event of a
breach of any of NFC's representations and warranties contained in Section 3.01
hereof with respect to any Receivable (a "REPURCHASE EVENT") as of the second
Accounting Date following NFC's discovery or its receipt of notice of breach
(or, at NFC's election, the first Accounting Date following such discovery),
unless such breach shall have been cured in all material respects, NFC will
repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer (if the Issuer is then the Owner of
such Receivable) on the related Distribution Date for an amount equal to the
Warranty Payment, without further notice from NFRRC hereunder. Upon the
occurrence of a Repurchase Event with respect to a Receivable for which NFRRC is
the Owner, NFC agrees to repurchase such Receivable from NFRRC for an amount and
upon the same terms as NFC would be obligated to repurchase such Receivable from
the Issuer if the Issuer was then the Owner thereof, and upon payment of such
amount, NFC shall have such rights with respect to such Receivable as if NFC had
purchased such Receivable from the Issuer as the Owner thereof. It is understood
and agreed that the obligation of NFC to repurchase any Receivable as to which a
breach has occurred and is continuing shall, if such obligation is fulfilled,
constitute the sole remedy against NFC for such breach available to NFRRC or any
Interested Party.
SECTION 5.05. Indemnification. NFC shall indemnify NFRRC for any
---------------
liability as a result of the failure of a Receivable to be originated in
compliance with all requirements of law and for any breach of any of its
representations and warranties contained herein. This indemnity obligation
shall be in addition to any obligation that NFC may otherwise have.
SECTION 5.06. Further Assignments. NFC acknowledges that NFRRC may,
-------------------
pursuant to the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, sell Receivables to
the Issuer and assign its rights hereunder to the Issuer, subject to the terms
and conditions of the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, and that the
Issuer may in turn further pledge, assign or transfer its rights in Receivables
and this Agreement. NFC further acknowledges that NFRRC may assign its rights
under the Custodian Agreement to the Issuer.
SECTION 5.07. Pre-Closing Collections. Within two Business Days after
-----------------------
each Closing, NFC shall transfer to the account or accounts designated by NFRRC
(or by the Issuer under the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements) all

Receivables and the Related Security conveyed by NFC to NFRRC at the time of
such Closing pursuant to Section 2.01.
SECTION 5.08. Limitation on Transfer of NITC Purchase Obligations. NFRRC
---------------------------------------------------
acknowledges and agrees that the rights pursuant to the NITC Purchase
Obligations are personal to NFC, and only the proceeds of such rights have been
assigned to NFRRC. NFRRC is not and is not intended to be a third-party
beneficiary of such rights and, accordingly, such rights will not be exercisable
by, enforceable by or for the benefit of, or preserved for the benefit of,
NFRRC.
