ARTICLE III
Administration and Servicing of Receivables
SECTION 3.1 Duties of Sub-Servicer.
(a) On and after the first calendar day after the applicable Closing Date, the Sub-Servicer, as agent for the Purchaser, shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables in accordance with all applicable regulations and requirements of law, the applicable Contract and the Credit and Collection Policy and with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention customary and usual for institutions which service motor vehicle retail installment contracts similar to the Receivables and, to the extent more exacting, that the Sub-Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable automotive receivables that it services for any other Person. The Sub-Servicer’s duties shall include collection and prompt posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors or of federal, state or local governmental authorities with respect to such Receivables, providing reasonable assistance to Purchaser in responding to inquiries of Obligors or of federal, state or local governmental authorities with respect to such Receivables, sending all notices required by law with respect to the Receivables, processing all advances, checks, chargebacks and other transactions in a commercially reasonable manner and consistent with that level of skill and attention exercised by Sub-Servicer with respect to all automotive receivables that it services for any other Person, investigating delinquencies, reporting tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Purchases, and, as directed by the Purchaser, with respect to distributions, repossessions and maximizing collections of Receivables, in each case consistent with the requirements, standards and procedures set forth herein. In addition, the Sub-Servicer agrees to provide reports and data files on the Receivables as mutually agreed to by the Purchaser, Sub-Servicer and Seller, including, without limitation, daily data files and monthly servicing reports. These reports will be provided as reasonably required by Purchaser and shall include, without limitation, term, contract amount, interest rate and payment amount for each Receivable. Sub-Servicer further agrees to maintain records necessary to verify compliance with this Agreement and to verify amounts and substantiate information set forth in any reports for such period of time as required by law. Purchaser may also conduct reasonable due diligence of the Seller and Servicer’s operations, including the origination and servicing of the Receivables, once per year at the Purchaser’s discretion with reasonable notice to the Sub-Servicer (provided, however, that the Purchaser is responsible for the costs associated with such review, unless an event of default has occurred) and, at Purchaser’s request with reasonable notice to Sub-Servicer, monthly telephonic or on-site meetings to discuss currents results and ongoing strategies and observe Sub-Servicer loan servicing practices. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject to the servicing standards set forth in this Agreement, the Sub-Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Purchaser to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Purchaser, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Receivables or to the Financed Vehicles securing such Receivables and/or the Certificates of Title with respect to such Financed Vehicles. If the Sub-Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Receivable, the Purchaser shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Receivable to the Sub-Servicer subject to the continuing security interest of the Purchaser. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Sub-Servicer may not enforce a Receivable
10
on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such Receivable, the Purchaser may, at its election, take steps to enforce such Receivable. The Sub-Servicer shall prepare and furnish and the Purchaser and Custodian, as authorized and directed by the Purchaser, shall execute, any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Sub-Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.
(b) The Sub-Servicer may not delegate duties under this Agreement to third parties, provided, however, that the Sub-Servicer may delegate duties to receive collections from Obligors to the Affiliates of Sub-Servicer, provided, however, that such Affiliates are approved by Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sub-Servicer may also at any time perform through agents or subcontractors the specific duties of (i) repossession and subsequent sale of Financed Vehicles and (ii) pursuing collection of deficiency balances on Defaulted Receivables, in each case in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy. The Sub-Servicer may also perform other specific duties (including, without limitation, collection activities) through, with the prior written consent of the Purchaser, agents or sub-contractors (including, without limitation, a Third Party Xxxx Payment Service). No such delegation or sub-contracting of duties by the Sub-Servicer shall relieve the Sub-Servicer of its responsibilities with respect to such duties.
(c) Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement and the Credit and Collection Policy, the Sub-Servicer may use its best efforts to locate third-party purchasers that are not affiliated with the Sub-Servicer or the Seller to purchase, from time to time, any Charge-Off Receivables, and shall have the right to sell any such Charge-Off Receivables to the third-party purchaser. The Sub-Servicer may elect to not sell a Charge-Off Receivable if, in its good faith judgment, the Sub-Servicer determines that the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to such Charge-Off Receivable would be increased by forbearance. In selecting Charge-Off Receivables to be sold to a third-party purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.1(c), the Sub-Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to locate purchasers for the most delinquent Charge-Off Receivables first. In any event, the Servicer shall not use any procedure in selecting Charge-Off Receivables to be sold to third-party purchasers which is materially adverse to the interest of the Purchaser. The Sub-Servicer shall sell each Sold Charge-Off Receivable for the greatest market price possible, although for these purposes the parties agree that any sale for the Bid Percentage satisfies this requirement. The Sub-Servicer shall remit or cause the third-party purchaser to remit all sale proceeds from the sale of Charge-Off Balances directly to the Collection Account without deposit into any intervening account as soon as practicable, but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each forward commitment or similar agreement under which a third-party purchaser will purchase Charge-Off Receivables from the Sub-Servicer on a recurring basis shall explicitly state that Sub-Servicer shall not sell Charge-Off Receivables to third-party purchasers more frequently than monthly.
SECTION 3.2 Collection and Allocation of Receivable Payments. Consistent with the standards, policies and procedures required by this Agreement, the Sub-Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Receivables as and when the same shall become due and shall follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to all comparable automotive receivables that it services for others and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit and Collection Policy. To the extent not already so notified, the Sub-Servicer shall notify each Obligor and each other Person
11
other than Obligors who make payments relating to Receivables to make (A) when paying in person, all payments with respect to the Receivables at any location of the Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate of the Sub-Servicer which has duly acknowledged the Purchaser’s interest in the Receivables and (B) when paying by mail, all payments with respect to the Receivables to one of the Post-Office Boxes; provided, however, that, unless the Purchaser directs otherwise, the Sub-Servicer, to the extent legally required, shall notify an Obligor that, when paying in person, payments with respect to the Receivables may be made at any Third Party Xxxx Payment Service (which is not in default under a contract regarding any of the Receivables and which has not been terminated upon the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise). When the Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate of the Sub-Servicer receives any payments (including payments mailed to one of the Post-Office Boxes or payments received from a Third Party Xxxx Payment Service), the Sub-Servicer or Affiliate, as applicable, shall hold such payments in trust for the benefit of the Purchaser, segregated from the assets of the Sub-Servicer or Affiliate, as applicable, and shall, as soon as possible but no later than one (1) Business Day following receipt/identification deposit such payments in the Depository Accounts. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Sub-Servicer shall remain primarily responsible for all collections received with respect to the Receivables. The Sub-Servicer shall allocate collections between principal and interest in accordance with the customary servicing procedures it follows with respect to all comparable automotive receivables that it services for others and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Except as provided below, the Sub-Servicer, for so long as the Sub-Servicer is the Sub-Servicer, may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, grant extensions on a Receivable.
12
determine in its good faith and reasonable discretion that such repair and/or repossession will increase the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to such Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. All amounts received upon liquidation of a Financed Vehicle shall be remitted directly by the Sub-Servicer as provided in Section 4.3.
SECTION 3.4 Physical Damage Insurance; Other Insurance.
(a) The Sub-Servicer shall have no obligation to track the maintenance of liability, physical damage, theft or loss insurance by any Obligor with respect to a Financed Vehicle.
(b) To the extent applicable, the Sub-Servicer shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under any insurance policies that may be maintained by any Obligor and referred to in Section 3.4(a) which, but for the actions of the Sub-Servicer, would have been covered thereunder.
(c) The Sub-Servicer shall take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any of the foregoing insurance policies. Any amounts collected by the Sub-Servicer under any physical damage, theft or loss insurance policies described above, shall be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 4.3.
SECTION 3.6 Additional Covenants of Sub-Servicer.
(a) The Sub-Servicer shall not release the Financed Vehicle securing each Receivable from the security interest granted by such Receivable in whole or in part except in the event of payment in full by the Obligor thereunder or repossession, nor shall the Sub-Servicer impair the rights of the Purchaser in such Receivables, nor shall the Sub-Servicer amend a Receivable, except that extensions may be granted in accordance with Section 3.2.
13
Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Custodian be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Sub-Servicer to act as successor Sub-Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.
14
ARTICLE IV
In the event the Sub-Servicer shall for any reason no longer be acting as such, the outgoing Sub-Servicer shall, at the expense of the outgoing Sub-Servicer, deliver to the successor Sub-Servicer all documents and records relating to the Depository Accounts and an accounting of amounts collected and held by the Depository Banks and shall otherwise, in a manner not inconsistent with the Master Agency Agreement, if applicable, use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of any funds in the Depository Accounts to the successor Sub-Servicer. The Servicer, at its expense in a manner not inconsistent with the Master Agency Agreement, if applicable, shall cause the Depository Banks to deliver, at the direction of the Purchaser or the successor Depository Banks, all documents and records relating to the Receivables and all amounts held (or thereafter received) by the Depository Banks with respect to the Receivables (together with an accounting of such amounts) and shall otherwise, in a manner not inconsistent with the Master Agency Agreement, if applicable, use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the depository arrangements, and the Sub-Servicer shall cooperate to facilitate such change.
