(x) 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.

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

(xii) No Defenses. No facts shall be known to the Seller which would give rise to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, nor shall the same have been asserted or threatened, with respect to any Receivable.

The representations and warranties set forth in this Section shall speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of the Receivables to the Purchaser and any subsequent assignment or transfer pursuant to Article Two of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The Purchaser, the Seller or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, shall inform the other parties promptly, in writing, upon discovery of any breach of the Seller's representations and warranties pursuant to this Section which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) in any Receivable.

This repurchase obligation shall obtain for all representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Section 2.03(a) of this Agreement whether or not the Seller has knowledge of the breach at the time of the breach or at the time the representations and warranties were made. In consideration of the purchase of any such Receivable, the Seller shall remit an amount equal to the Warranty Purchase Payment in respect of such Receivable to the Purchaser, and the Seller shall be entitled to receive the Released Warranty Amount from (or on behalf of) the Purchaser. Except as described below, the sole remedy of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) with respect to a breach of the Seller's representations and warranties pursuant to this Agreement shall be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivable pursuant to this Section. Upon any such repurchase, the Purchaser shall, without further action, be deemed to transfer, assign, set-over and otherwise convey to the Seller, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Purchaser in, to and under such repurchased Receivable, all monies due or to become due with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof. The Purchaser or the Owner Trustee, as applicable, shall execute such documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Seller to effect the conveyance of such Receivable pursuant to this Section. The Seller hereby indemnifies the Purchaser for any civil liabilities that arise under Texas Finance Code §349.003 if the forms of contracts used are not the forms that are assumed to have been used in Texas in the opinion of Xxxxxx Xxxx, LLP dated as of the Closing Date, and for any civil liabilities that arise for breach of the covenant set forth in Section 2.04(e).

SECTION 2.05 Covenants of the Seller. The Seller hereby covenants that:

that the interests of the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) in such Receivable are materially and adversely affected, such Receivable shall be repurchased from the Purchaser by the Seller in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 2.03(c), and the Seller shall defend the right, title and interest of the Purchaser in, to and under the Receivables, whether now existing or hereafter created, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under the Seller; provided, however, that nothing in this subsection shall prevent or be deemed to prohibit the Seller from suffering to exist upon any of the Receivables, Liens for municipal or other local taxes if such taxes shall not at the time be due and payable or if the Seller shall currently be contesting the validity of such taxes in good faith by appropriate proceedings and shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto.

(b) Delivery of Payments. The Seller agrees to deliver in kind upon receipt to the Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement (if other than the Seller) all payments received by the Seller in respect of the Receivables as soon as practicable after receipt thereof by the Seller from and after the appointment of the Servicer as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Toyota Auto Receivables 2001-C Owner Trust.

SECTION 5.13 Indemnification. The Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Securityholders from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages, injury and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, and was imposed upon such Person through the willful misconduct or negligence of the Seller in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Seller shall not indemnify any such Person if such acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions constitute negligence or willful misconduct by the Purchaser, the Owner Trustee or any Securityholders. In case any such action is brought against a party indemnified under this Section 5.13 and it notifies the Seller of the commencement thereof, the Seller will assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who may, unless there is, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel stating that there is an unwaivable conflict of interest, be counsel to the Seller), and the Seller 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.

SECTION 5.14 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, the Seller.
