WHEREAS, Santander Drive Auto Receivables Trust 2013-2, as issuer (the “Issuer”), the Seller, the Servicer, and U.S. Bank National Association, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”) are parties to that certain Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 13, 2013 (as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time, the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer is required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities as servicer other than expenses in connection with the sale of a repossessed vehicle, which may be netted from liquidation proceeds from such sale;
WHEREAS, the Servicer has paid, and has agreed to continue to pay, external costs associated with repossession expenses attributable to Financed Vehicles sold after the related Receivables have become Defaulted Receivables;
WHEREAS, the Seller and the Servicer desire to amend the Sale and Servicing Agreement to memorialize the agreement of the Servicer to pay such external costs rather than netting such amounts from sale proceeds from the disposition of a repossessed Financed Vehicle;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, as amended hereby.

(a) The definition of “Liquidation Proceeds” in Appendix A of the Sale and Servicing Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the phrase “net of any expenses (including, without limitation, any auction, painting, repair or refurbishment expenses in respect of the related Financed Vehicle)” where it appears therein and replacing it with the phrase “net of auction, painting, repair, refurbishment and similar expenses (but excluding any external costs associated with repossession expenses, which shall be an expense of the Servicer)”.
