Exhibit 10.11

AMENDED AND RESTATED INVENTORY FINANCING

AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

I. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT

This Amended and Restated Inventory Financing and Security Agreement (“Agreement”) is effective as of July 27, 2015, and is made by and among the following parties:

A.	Ally Bank (Ally Capital in Hawaii, Mississippi, Montana and New Jersey), a Utah chartered state bank (“Bank”), with its principal executive offices located at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000; and

B.	Ally Financial, a Delaware entity (“Ally”) with a local business office currently located at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx, XX 00000 (together with Bank, the “Ally Parties” and Bank and Ally each being, an “Ally Party”); and

X.	Xxxxxxx, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, with its principal executive office currently located at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000 (“Dealership”).

II. THE RECITALS

The essential facts relied on by Bank, Ally and Dealership as true and complete, and giving rise to this Agreement, are as follows:

From time to time, Dealership has and/or intends to acquire one or more Vehicles (defined below) from one or more manufacturer, distributor, dealers, auctioneer, merchant, customer, broker, seller, or other supplier (“Vehicle Seller(s)”), for the principal purpose of selling or leasing them to retail customers in the ordinary course of business.

To enable Dealership to acquire Vehicles and hold them in inventory, Dealership wants the Ally Parties to provide Dealership with wholesale inventory floorplan finance accommodations by i) advancing the purchase price of the Vehicles directly to the Vehicle Sellers; ii) advancing funds to other third parties who are not Vehicle Sellers; or iii) by loaning money directly to Dealership for Vehicles that were previously purchased from Vehicle Sellers by Dealership (“Inventory Financing”). (Vehicles acquired with or held as a result of Inventory Financing may be referred to as “Inventory Financed Vehicles.”)

C.	Bank is willing to provide Dealership with Inventory Financing in accordance with all of the provisions of this Agreement.

D.	Ally is willing to provide Dealership with Inventory Financing in accordance with all of the provisions of this Agreement.

The Inventory Financing will be governed by the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, this Agreement sets forth the rights and duties between Bank and Dealership and between Ally and Dealership concerning Inventory Financing, including establishment of a credit line by which inventory financing advances will be made by either or both of the Ally Parties, payment of principal, interest, and other charges, the grant of security interests in collateral, and other terms and conditions. Before execution, each party has carefully read this Agreement and each related document and has consulted with or had an opportunity to consult with an attorney.

III. THE AGREEMENT

In consideration of the premises and the mutual promises in this Agreement, which are acknowledged to be sufficient, Bank, Ally and Dealership agree to the following:

A.	Inventory Finance Accommodations.

Definition of “Vehicle”. As used in this Agreement, “Vehicle” means an automobile, van, or light duty truck that is not manufactured for a particular commercial purpose. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, Inventory Financing is available only for a Vehicle that can be registered for use on public highways, and is not a vehicle that is titled outside the United States or has been previously titled outside the United States, in each case:

(a)

of the then-current model year, or nine previous model years,

(b)

having fewer than 150,000 miles,

(c)

that Dealership has purchased for at least $1,500,

(d)

for which such Dealership has received the title and purchase documentation,

(e)

that has not been purchased by Dealership for the use of its employees,

(f)

that is not subject to a current arbitration proceeding between the purchaser and the Dealership with respect to the sale of such vehicle, and

(g)

that is not subject to an existing consumer lease from Dealership or an affiliate of Dealership.

Establishment of a 364-Day Committed Inventory Financing Credit Line. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,

(a)

Each of the Ally Parties commits to provide Inventory Financing to Dealership until the 364^th calendar day (inclusive) from the effective date of this Agreement (“Day 364”). At least 45 calendar days before Day 364, Dealership may request the Ally Parties to extend this commitment by an additional 364 calendar day period, and the Ally Parties, in their sole discretion, may extend this commitment by an additional 364 day period. If the Ally Parties extend this commitment by an additional 364 day period, then, at least 45 calendar days before the second anniversary of Day 364, Dealership may request the Ally Parties to extend this commitment by an additional 364-day period, and the Ally Parties may, in their sole discretion, extend this commitment by an additional 364-day period.

(b)

The sum of all Inventory Financing by each Ally Party, plus any obligation of each Ally Party to make specific advances to a Vehicle Seller or other party, constitutes a single obligation of Dealership to such Ally Party. The sum of all Inventory Financing plus the sum of all obligations of both of the Ally Parties to make specific advances to Vehicle Sellers or other parties constitutes the Dealership’s “Wholesale Outstandings.”

Amount of the Credit Line. The aggregate amount of credit available pursuant to this Agreement (the “Credit Line”) is $60,000,000.00.

Advance. The advance rate for Inventory Financing, is as follows:

(a)

Auction and rental Vehicles: initially funded within 30 calendar days of purchase, [***] of:

(i)

the purchase price of such Vehicle, plus

(ii)

fees charged by an auction in connection with the purchase of such Vehicle, plus

(iii)

post-sale inspection fees in connection with the purchase of such Vehicle.

The Ally Parties have no obligation to advance any amount for costs related to transportation or labor with respect to a Vehicle.

(b)

Trade-in Vehicles and any amounts re-borrowed against a Vehicle after repayment of the initial advance for that Vehicle and any amounts initially funded for an Auction or rental Vehicle after 30 calendar days from the purchase date: [***] of clean wholesale value (as used in this Agreement, clean wholesale value means BlackBook “clean” wholesale value with no addition for options) of trade-in Vehicles; Vehicles purchased directly from customers; and amounts that are re-borrowed under the Credit Line.

Method of Providing Inventory Financing. The Credit Line must be used exclusively for Inventory Financing in any of the following ways:

(a)

Advances Directly to Vehicle Sellers. From time to time, upon notice from Dealership or Vehicle Sellers, either or both of the Ally Parties may advance money directly to Vehicle Sellers for Vehicles acquired or proposed to be acquired by Dealership as Inventory Financed Vehicles. The Ally Parties will make payment in accordance with and in reliance on any invoice, draft, debit, contract, advice or other communication received by the Ally Parties from the Vehicle Seller. The Ally Parties are not

[***]

required to verify the order or shipment of any Vehicle for which it pays a Vehicle Seller and are not responsible for any nonconformity of the Vehicle, delivery, or transaction between Dealership and a Vehicle Seller. If requested, Dealership will promptly provide invoices, bills of sale, title other transaction documents pertaining to such Vehicles.

(b)

Advances Directly to or on behalf of Dealership. From time to time, either or both of the Ally Parties may advance money directly to Dealership or to other third parties who are not Vehicle Sellers on behalf of Dealership to finance Vehicles then owned or proposed to be acquired by Dealership. The amount that will be advanced to or on behalf of Dealership for the Vehicles will be determined in accordance with Subsection III.A.4 above. Upon request by either or both of the Ally Parties, Dealership must provide the Ally Parties with satisfactory evidence of the value, ownership, and title status of the Vehicle(s), including the manufacturer’s certificate of origin or title certificate (original or valid copy), invoice or xxxx of sale, and the shipping receipt, xxxx of lading, and the like.

Evidence of Inventory Financing. The Ally Parties will maintain on their books and records in accordance with their usual practices, one or more accounts detailing the Inventory Financing, Wholesale Outstandings, and all Interest, Principal Reductions, net settlements (as described in Section III.C.4 below), Other Charges and any other related fees, costs, expenses, and payments owed by Dealership. From time to time, ordinarily monthly, the Ally Parties will furnish Dealership with statements of its account information (“Wholesale Billing Statement”). If only one Wholesale Billing Statement is provided by the Ally Parties, the Wholesale Billing Statement will indicate (by account number or otherwise) the Inventory Financing provided by each of the Ally Parties. Unless Dealership advises the Ally Parties in writing of any discrepancy on the Wholesale Billing Statement within ten (10) calendar days of receipt, and absent manifest error, the Wholesale Billing Statement will be deemed acknowledged and agreed to by Dealership and conclusive proof of Dealership’s actual obligation to each of the Ally Parties as of the date of the Wholesale Billing Statement last received by Dealership.

Other Financing Accommodations. Upon Dealership’s request, either or both of the Ally Parties may provide other forms of finance and / or credit accommodations which arise out of or relate to the business operations of Dealership and / or any of its owners, officers, or affiliates, including, without limitation, the discount purchase of retail installment sale and lease agreements, working capital, revolving credit, equipment, and realty loans (such accommodations from either of the Ally Parties being, the “Other Financing Accommodations”). The availability, amount, terms, conditions, provisions, continuation, documentation, and administration of Other Financing Accommodations are separate and distinct from the Inventory Financing under this Agreement and may be provided, if at all, only according to the terms and conditions of the written agreement between such Ally Party and Dealership. If

Dealership requests additional Inventory Financing beyond the aggregate amount of the Credit Line stated in Subsection III.A.3 above, and the Ally Parties decline the request, then Dealership and the Ally Parties will negotiate in good faith to restructure the credit and collateral arrangements this Agreement to facilitate Dealership’s efforts to obtain the additional financing from another financial institution.

B.	Interest, Principal Reductions, Late Charges, Costs, Expenses and Other Charges and Fees.

Interest Accrual. Rate, and Method of Calculation. Wholesale Outstandings owed to the Ally Parties will bear interest on and from the day after each advance or loan through the date of repayment in full. Interest will be at a per annum rate and will be determined using a 365/360 simple interest method of calculation, unless expressly prohibited by law (“Interest”). The Interest rate is 1-M LIBOR Index Rate* plus 380 basis points.

The 1-M LIBOR Index Rate in effect for a monthly billing period is defined as the arithmetic mean of the 1-Month LIBOR Rate for the calendar days from and including the 26th of the calendar month which is two months prior to the applicable monthly billing period and ending with the 25^th of the month immediately preceding the applicable monthly billing period (“Measurement Period”). The 1-Month LIBOR Rate applicable to any day on which no rate is published will be the rate last quoted prior to such day. The “1-Month LIBOR Rate” is defined as: The per annum rate of interest for one month deposits in U.S. Dollars for each day of the Measurement Period that appears on the Bloomberg screen US0001M Index (London Interbank Offered Rate administered by the British Bankers’ Association, New York Stock Exchange Euronext or other successor administrator for LIBOR) at approximately 11:00 a m. London time, or if such source becomes unavailable or there is no such successor, the per annum rate of interest for one month deposits in U.S. Dollars for each day of the Measurement Period obtained from such other commercially available source providing quotations of LIBOR as Ally Bank may designate.

Maximum Interest. In no event will Interest owed to either or both of the Ally Parties under this Agreement exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by law in effect at the time it is assessed. Each of the Ally Parties and Dealership intend to faithfully comply with applicable usury laws, and this Agreement is to be construed in accordance with this intent. If circumstances cause the actual or imputed interest contracted for, charged, or received by either or both of the Ally Parties to be in excess of the maximum rate of interest allowed by law, Dealership must promptly notify the affected Ally Party(ies) of the circumstance, and such Ally Party(ies) will either, at their sole discretion, refund to Dealership, or credit the Wholesale Outstandings owed by Dealership to such Ally Party(ies), with so much of the imputed interest as will reduce the effective rate of interest to an amount one-tenth of one per cent (0.10%) per annum less than the maximum rate of interest allowed by law for the applicable period.

Principal Reductions. Dealership must pay a monthly principal reduction of 10% of the original principal amount (each a “Principal Reduction”) for each Vehicle on Dealership’s floorplan for more than 180 days (regardless of repayment and re-borrowing) until the outstanding principal amount for that Vehicle is reduced to lesser of 50% of the original principal amount or 50% of the clean wholesale value. Principal Reductions may be billed to Dealership and will reduce the amount of the Wholesale Outstandings when paid by Dealership. Any change in the Principal Reductions required by either or both of the Ally Parties will not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.

Late Charge. Unless prohibited by law, each of the Ally Parties may assess a late charge of up to five percent (5%) of any amount owed to such Ally Party(ies) that is not paid when due and payable after giving effect to applicable grace periods (“Late Charge”). The Late Charge is in addition to Interest.

Costs, Expenses, Fees. Unless prohibited by law, Dealership must pay all expenses and reimburse each of the Ally Parties for any cost, expense, or other expenditures, including reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses; amounts expended by the Ally Parties on behalf of Dealership; collection and bankruptcy costs, fees and expenses; and all other amounts incurred by each of the Ally Parties in the enforcement of any right or remedy, collection of any Obligation (as defined in Subsection III.D.2, below), or defense of any claim or action in respect of this Agreement.

Other Charges and Fees. The Ally Parties may assess and Dealership will pay charges in connection with Inventory Financing in the areas of audit, collateral monitoring, non- compliance, and returned item (“Other Charges”). Provided no Default has occurred, the Ally Parties will provide advance notice of at least 30 calendar days of new charges or changes to existing charges.

Acquisition Fee. Simultaneously with the signing of this Agreement, Dealership will pay to the Ally Parties an acquisition fee in the amount of [***]. No additional acquisition fee is required in connection with any commitment extension pursuant to Section III.A.2.a.

C.	Payments by Dealership.

Permissive Principal Payments. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, Dealership may pay to the Ally Parties some or all of the Wholesale Outstandings and any other payment obligations at any time before they are due and payable without premium or penalty.

Required Payments. Dealership must fully, promptly, and faithfully pay to the Ally Parties the Wholesale Outstandings, Interest, Principal Reductions, Late Charges, Other Charges, costs, expenses, fees and any other payment obligations due under this Agreement, as follows:

[***]

Indicates that text has been omitted which is the subject of a confidential treatment request. The text has been separately filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(a)

the principal amount of the advance or loan by the Ally Parties for each Inventory Financed Vehicle as and when such Vehicle is sold, leased, consigned, gifted, exchanged, transferred, otherwise disposed of, registered, placed into service, or no longer in the possession of the Dealership, or if it is otherwise lost, stolen, confiscated, missing, or otherwise not received, or if it is damaged or destroyed; and

(b)

the total amount specified in the Wholesale Billing Statement or other billing statements for Interest, Principal Reductions, Late Charges, Other Charges, costs, expenses, fees and any other payment obligations, immediately upon receipt from the Ally Parties.

Method of Payment. All payments must be made by Dealership to the Ally Parties by one or more of the following methods: (i) in good funds by draft, check, or other negotiable instrument, (ii) in good funds by wire transfer, electronic fund transfer, automated clearing house transfer, or other electronic means, or (iii) chattel paper assigned to one of the Ally Parties that is acceptable to such Ally Party in its sole discretion. Upon request by either or both of the Ally Parties, Dealership must make all payments to such Ally Party(ies) in immediately available funds, certified check, bank check, and the like. Dealership must remit all payments owed to Ally and Bank under this Agreement to Ally at the local business office set forth in Section I.A above, or any other place as each of the Ally Parties designates from time to time.

“Full” Payment Defined. The requirement for making payments “fully” as set forth in this Agreement means that the required payment amount must be either actually remitted to and received by the Ally Parties in whole, without setoff or recoupment, or credited by either of the Ally Parties or any affiliate of either of the Ally Parties in accordance with the SmartCash Agreement among the Ally Parties and Dealership. This does not include funds actually received by the Ally Parties from or on behalf of Dealership for specific application to a required payment by way of:

(a)

subvention, discount, subsidy, support, or supplementation from a Vehicle Seller; or

(b)

credit, rebate, bonus, debit, disbursement, or other payment from either of the Ally Parties or any other person for the purchase of chattel paper, distribution from finance reserve accounts, application of account balances, and the like.

Absent payment actually being remitted by Dealership to the Ally Parties or actually credited by either of the Ally Parties or any of their affiliates, payment is not “fully” made because either or both of the Ally Parties have:

(a)

a right of setoff, recoupment, and the like;

(b)

a Security Interest in or an assignment of Collateral (each as defined in Section III. D. below), or the proceeds thereof; or

(c)

a direct or indirect claim against a Vehicle Seller, surety, guarantor, or any other person.

Dealership’s obligation to pay each of the Ally Parties as set forth in this Agreement is independent of any other rights that Dealership or either of the Ally Parties may have to effect payment from other sources and persons, and neither of the Ally Parties has any duty to undertake the enforcement of any other rights.

“Prompt” Payment Defined. The requirement for making payments “promptly” as set forth in this Agreement means that the required payment amount must be tendered to the Ally Parties within [***] business days.

In their sole discretion, either or both of the Ally Parties may permit more time between the event and payment due date to take into account factors such as delays in the administration, processing, and delivery of the payments (“Release Period”). The Release Period is available only for payments required under Subsection III.C.2.(a) above. The existence, duration, terms, and continuation of the Release Period are subject to change from time to time by each of the Ally Parties. Changes in the Release Period by the Ally Parties do not constitute amendments of this Agreement.

“Sold” Defined. “Sold” as set forth in this Agreement means the delivery or transfer of ownership, title or interest in the property by Dealership to a third party (whether an affiliate or non-affiliate of Dealership).

Source and Application of Payment. The source of all payments due under this Agreement is presumptively deemed to be Collateral (as defined in III.D.1. below). Absent Default (as defined in Section III.H. below), the Ally Parties will apply payments pursuant to Dealership’s instructions. Absent instruction from Dealership or in the event of Default, the Ally Parties will apply payments against any obligation due and owing by Dealership under this Agreement or other Financing Accommodations. A payment is not final to the extent of any defeasance of it by application of law. Payment made by check, draft, or other instrument will be deemed made by Dealership not later than one (1) business day after the instrument is accepted by the payor bank. Except as otherwise provided in any SmartCash Agreement between Dealership and either or both of the Ally Parties, payments made by wire transfer, electronic fund transfer, automated clearing house transfer, and other electronic means will be deemed made by Dealership upon posting of such payment by the Ally Parties.

D.	The Ally Parties’ Security Interests.

Grant of Security Interest. Dealership hereby grants to each of Bank and Ally a continuing security interest in and a collateral assignment of (“Security Interest”) all of the following described property in which Dealership has or may have any rights, wherever located, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired and any and all accessions, additions, attachments, replacements, substitutions, returns, profits, and proceeds in whatever form or type, of any of the property (“Collateral”):

all Vehicles, including but not limited to those for which either of the Ally Parties provides Inventory Financing; other inventory; equipment; accounts, including factory open accounts of Dealership; deposit and other accounts with banks and other financial institutions; cash and cash equivalents; general intangibles; all documents; instruments; investment property; and chattel paper.

The Obligations Secured. The Collateral secures payment and performance of all debts, obligations, and duties of Dealership to Bank and Ally of every kind and description, now existing or hereafter arising under this Agreement, whether primary or secondary, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, direct or indirect, presently contemplated or not contemplated by Bank, Ally or Dealership, or otherwise designated by the parties as secured or unsecured (“Obligations”).

Status of Collateral. The Collateral is held by Dealership in trust for each of the Ally Parties. The Collateral must be and remain free from all confiscations, assessments, forfeitures, loss, destruction, impairment, tax liens and other liens, security interests, pledges, claims, and encumbrances except for:

(a)

the Security Interest arising under this Agreement, or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement;

(b)

non-consensual statutory liens resulting from deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with workers compensation, unemployment insurance, social security, and other similar laws;

(c)

other security interests to which each of the Ally Parties specifically consents in writing.

The grant of the Security Interest and the execution of any document, instrument, promissory note, or the like, in connection with it or the Obligations do not constitute payment or performance of any of the Obligations, except to the extent of actual, indefeasible payment of the Obligations from the realization by Dealership or the Ally Parties of the Collateral or otherwise. The Security Interest continues to the full extent provided in this Agreement until all Obligations are fully and indefeasibly paid and performed, even if the Credit Line is from time to time modified, suspended, or terminated and reestablished.

Perfection of Security Interest. The Ally Parties may each file financing statements, note their liens on titles, and take any other steps in order to establish, confirm, and maintain a perfected Security Interest in the Collateral. Dealership will execute and deliver any documents necessary and appropriate for these purposes and otherwise irrevocably appoints each of the Ally Parties to do so. Each of the Ally Parties may require Dealership to pay any fee, cost, tax, or assessment required by any government entity to perfect and / or maintain each of the Ally Parties’ Security Interest in the Collateral. All financing statements previously filed by either or both of the Ally Parties are hereby ratified and authorized by Dealership as of the date of filing.

Protection of Security Interest. Unless expressly prohibited by law, in the event of Default and unless and until the Default is cured to the satisfaction of the Ally Parties or in the event of material jeopardy to 10% or more of the Collateral pledged hereunder (based on clean wholesale value), upon either of the Ally Parties’ request, Dealership must immediately:

(a)

turn over to Ally or some other party designated by the Ally Parties custody or control of all manufacturer’s certificates of origin, certificates of title, documents of title, bills of sale, invoices, and other records or instruments of ownership by Dealership pertaining to the Vehicles;

(b)

establish and maintain an account, separate from other Dealership accounts, at a federally insured financial institution with which Dealership and/or its affiliates have had no business or lending relationship for a minimum of six (6) months before setting up the account, into which cash, instruments, and other proceeds of Collateral are to be deposited and segregated from other funds of Dealership;

(c)

protect and defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all other persons, including, but not limited to obtaining waivers from landlords, depository institutions and other parties which have access to or control over the Ally Parties’ Collateral or proceeds of the Ally Parties’ Collateral; and

(d)

permit representative(s) of each of the Ally Parties to monitor Collateral by taking one or more of the following actions:

(i)

to enter any locations where Dealership conducts business or maintains Collateral, and to remain on the premises for such time as such Ally Party(ies) may deem desirable;

(ii)

to take possession and control over certificates of origin, title, and keys with respect to each Vehicle comprising Dealership’s inventory or equipment;

(iii)

to take constructive or actual possession and control over all documents, books, records, papers, accounts, chattel paper, electronic chattel paper, instruments, promissory notes, general intangibles, payment intangibles, supporting obligations, contract rights, software, or any similar types of tangible or intangible property relating to or comprising the Collateral;

(iv)

to receive payment of all Collateral proceeds; and

(v)

to take whatever additional actions as either or both of the Ally Parties may deem necessary or desirable to protect and preserve the Collateral, and to carry out, and to protect and preserve each of the Ally Parties’ security rights and remedies.

Offset. In addition to the Security Interest, each of the Ally Parties retains any and all rights of offset, recoupment, netting-out, and any other legal or equitable rights, in each case provided to it under applicable law, to credit those assets of Dealership in the possession or control of Ally Bank or Ally Financial, as applicable, against any Obligations of Dealership to Ally Bank or Ally Financial under this Agreement or any other auto finance related agreement (e.g., inventory financing; SmartAuction; purchase of retail installment sale contracts and leases), whether then matured, liquidated, or due. For clarity, the term “Obligations of Dealership” in the preceding sentence does not include the obligations of any affiliate of Dealership.

Authorization Regarding Proceeds of Collateral. Dealership hereby authorizes and empowers each of Bank and Ally to demand, collect and receive from auctions and others, and give such parties binding receipts for, all proceeds of Collateral and, in Dealership’s name or otherwise, to prosecute suits therefor. With or without a default, each of the Ally Parties may, at any time notify auctions and others to make payment directly to the Ally Parties of proceeds of Collateral. Dealership unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes and instructs auctions and others to make payment of proceeds of Collateral directly to the Ally Parties as instructed, and authorizes auctions and others to rely on a copy of this Agreement as evidence of the authorization and instruction. The Ally Parties will account to Dealership for all sums received pursuant to this Section III.D.7 and applied in the manner described in Subsection III.C.7 above. This authorization is irrevocable without the prior written consent of each of the Ally Parties and is provided as additional security for and not as payment of obligations now or hereafter arising to the Ally Parties. Dealership hereby appoints each Bank and Ally as its agent and attorney-in-fact for the sole purpose of executing or endorsing, on Dealership’s behalf, any document, check or other instrument necessary to cause payment of proceeds of Collateral, or to perfect Bank’s and/or Ally’s security interest in the proceeds of Collateral.

In addition, Dealership will notify each of the Ally Parties if more than 10% (based on clean wholesale value) of the Vehicles at, or attributable to, any Dealership retail location are damaged. Dealership must use reasonable means to diligently repair and restore such Vehicle to its original condition, replace, or locate any of these Vehicles, and keep the Ally Parties apprised of these efforts.

Risks. Neither of the Ally Parties has any risk or responsibility concerning the ownership, location, condition, usage, inspection, or disposition of any Vehicle or other Collateral whether or not permitted by this Agreement, including fire, theft, vandalism, mischief, collision, acts of terrorism, acts of God, property damage, personal injury, public liability, and the like (“Risks”). Dealership bears and assumes the Risks, unless imposed by law on another person and except to the extent of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Ally Parties. Dealership will indemnify and hold harmless Bank and Ally against all Risks, including injury and damage to persons, property, or Collateral caused by any of these Risks.

Insurance. Except to the extent that both of the Ally Parties obtain insurance for themselves on one or more of the Risks, Dealership must acquire and maintain one or more policies of insurance on losses which may arise as a consequence of the Risks on any of the Vehicles or, as requested by either or both of the Ally Parties, on other Collateral. The amounts, deductibles, provider, term, cancellation rights, types of insurance, and required ratings of insurer are attached to this Agreement as Exhibit 1. Each of the Ally Parties must be named as a loss payee, as each of their interests may appear. Dealership must provide each of the Ally Parties with one or more certificates of insurance evidencing compliance with this Subsection III.E.9.

Representations and Warranties of Dealership. Dealership represents and warrants to each of the Ally Parties the accuracy and completeness of each of the following statements as of the effective date of this Agreement. Dealership will immediately notify each of the Ally Parties of any known or expected material change to any of these statements. Otherwise, they are deemed as continuing and reaffirmed each time either of the Ally Parties provides Inventory Financing to Dealership.

Dealership Existence. Dealership is duly formed, constituted, and is in good standing in the jurisdiction in which it is located, as “location” is determined under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as amended from time to time. Dealership has all government and other permits, licenses, authorizations, and approvals necessary to do business lawfully in the jurisdiction in which any of its business operations are located.

Dealership Authorization. Dealership is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver this Agreement and to do all things necessary and appropriate to fulfill and implement the terms and conditions of it.

Legal Compliance. Dealership is in compliance with all federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and ordinances.

Financial Condition. Information on the financial condition of Dealership which has or may be submitted to either or both of the Ally Parties, either directly or indirectly (e.g., through a Vehicle Seller), by Dealership or an agent of Dealership (e.g., accountant), fairly presents the financial condition of Dealership in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

Relationship of Ally Parties and Dealership. The relationship between each of the Ally Parties and Dealership is one of creditor and debtor, respectively, based upon this Agreement and/or Other Financing Accommodations. There is no fiduciary, trust, representative, confidential, partnership, or other special relationship between either of the Ally Parties and Dealership. The Ally Parties do not have and will not have any investment in Dealership, whether equity or otherwise. Dealership is not a counselor, advisor, agent or legal or other representative of Bank or Ally. Neither Bank nor Ally is a counselor, advisor, agent, or legal or other representative of the Dealership, except for the limited power of attorney expressly described in Subsections III.D.4. and 7. above and Subsections III.J.10. and III.K.18. below, and each of them recognizes the ability, importance, and freedom to consult with any accountants, attorneys, agents, advisors, and business consultants of their choice in connection with the review, execution, and administration of this Agreement. Neither of the Ally Parties controls, supervises, or manages Dealership.

Relationship with Vehicle Sellers. The Ally Parties do not represent the interests of any Vehicle Seller. The relationships of each of the Ally Parties and Dealership to any Vehicle Seller are separate and distinct from one another. Neither of the Ally Parties is under the control of any Vehicle Seller, despite any business, consultative, investment, ownership, legal, or other relationship either of the Ally Parties may have with one or more Vehicle Seller. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Dealership to obtain Inventory Financing from the Ally Parties based on any relationship that either of the Ally Parties may have with one or more Vehicle Sellers.

Notification of information to Others. Bank and Ally each have the right, but not the obligation, to notify guarantors, sureties, Vehicle Sellers, Account Debtors and other third parties (e.g., owners, officers, etc.) of the terms, administration, or performance of this Agreement.

Information From and To Third Persons. Dealership irrevocably and continuously consents to the disclosure of all types and kinds of information in any format concerning the Dealership by third persons to each of the Ally Parties and by each of the Ally Parties to third persons, including regulators of either Ally Party, and the obtaining of information by each of the Ally Parties from third persons, including, by way of example, credit, financial, and business information, whether of direct actual experience or obtained from other sources.

These provisional rights and remedies are cumulative and not alternative, are non-exclusive, and may be enforced successively or concurrently. The single or partial exercise of any right or remedy does not waive or exhaust any other rights or remedies or waive any present or future Default of any kind. Unless and until a Default is completely remedied to the Ally Parties’ satisfaction:

Demand. Either or both of the Ally Parties may demand immediate payment in full of all Obligations owed by Dealership to such Ally Party(ies).

Repossession of Collateral. Either or both of the Ally Parties may take immediate possession of the Collateral, without demand, further notice to or consent of Dealership, and with or without legal process. Upon request by either or both of the Ally Parties, Dealership must assemble the Collateral and make it available to such Ally Party(ies) at a reasonably convenient place designated by such Ally Party(ies), including the Dealership premises. Dealership irrevocably authorizes and empowers each of the Ally Parties and their agents to enter upon the premises where the Collateral is located and remove it or render portions of it unusable (“Collateral Recovery”). Dealership irrevocably waives any bonds, surety, or security which may be required by any rule, law, or procedure in connection with Collateral Recovery.

Direct Collection of Collateral. Either or both of the Ally Parties may make direct collection of any Collateral in the possession or control of any third party, including, but not limited to, chattel paper, accounts, accounts with Vehicle Sellers, instruments, and proceeds.

Disposition of Collateral. Following total or partial Collateral Recovery, either or both of the Ally Parties may sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Collateral not less than ten (10) calendar days after giving Dealership written notice of the public or private sale or as permitted by law which it proposes for the account of Dealership. The sale of Vehicles at an auction at which only other dealers or Vehicle Sellers are generally invited to attend is deemed to be a “private sale.”

“Commercially Reasonable” Defined. Any of the following, nonexclusive, methods of Collateral disposition is deemed “commercially reasonable” in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code:

(a)

repurchase of any Vehicle, parts, or accessories manufactured by the original Vehicle Seller pursuant to the terms of a repurchase agreement between such Ally Party and Vehicle Seller;

(b)

sale to the highest cash bid from dealers in the type of property repossessed, whether in bulk or parcels; and

(d)

sale at any physical or virtual auction, including SmartAuction, at which only dealers of multiple or single Vehicle manufacturer are generally invited to attend.

Deficiency. Dealership must fully and promptly pay to each of the Ally Parties any deficiency remaining after disposition of the Collateral, except to the extent expressly modified by each of the Ally Parties in writing.

10.

Limited Power of Attorney. Dealership hereby irrevocably appoints each Bank and Ally, acting through any of their respective officers and employees, its true and lawful attorney for and in its name, stead, and behalf as if fully done by Dealership, to sign, endorse, execute, negotiate, compromise, settle, complete, and deliver:

(a)

any invoice, xxxx of sale, certificate of title, manufacturer’s certificate of origin, application, and any other instrument or document pertaining to title or ownership or the transference thereof of any Collateral;

(b)

any financing statement, notice, filing, or document pertaining to the enforcement of the Security Interest in Collateral; and

(c)

any check, draft, certificate of deposit, credit voucher, or any other medium of payment, insurance claims, proof of loss, instrument, or document pertaining to or proceeds of any Collateral;

This limited power of attorney is coupled with an interest and may be relied upon by any third party without any duty to inquire as to its continued effectiveness. Neither Bank nor Ally will be liable for any acts or omissions, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of law or fact in the exercise of any authorization under this limited power of attorney.

Bank is not responsible for the performance or conduct of Ally and Ally is not responsible for the performance or conduct of Bank. Dealership shall not assert against Bank any claim, defense or set-off relating to Ally and Dealership will not assert against Ally any claim, defense or set-off relating to Bank.
