The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation to start an Asset Review until a Review Notice is received.

Section 3.2. Identification of Subject Receivables. Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Review Notice, the Servicer will deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee, a list of the Subject Receivables.

Section 3.3. Review Materials.

(a) Access to Review Materials. The Servicer will render reasonable assistance to the Asset Representations Reviewer to facilitate the Asset Review. The Servicer will give the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Review Materials for all of the Subject Receivables within 10 (ten) days after receipt of the Review Notice in one or more of the following ways in the Servicer’s reasonable discretion: (i) by providing access to the Servicer’s receivables systems, either remotely or at one of the properties of the Servicer, (ii) by electronic posting of Review Materials to a password-protected website to which the Asset Representations Reviewer has access, (iii) by providing originals or photocopies at one of the properties of the Servicer where the Receivable Files are located or (iv) in another manner agreed by the Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Servicer may redact or remove PII from the Review Materials so long as all information in the Review Materials necessary for the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete the Asset Review remains intact and unchanged.

(b) Missing or Insufficient Review Materials. If any of the Review Materials are missing or insufficient for the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform any Test, the Asset Representations Reviewer will notify the Servicer promptly, and in any event no less than 20 days before completing the Review, and the Servicer will have 15 days to provide the Asset Representations Reviewer access to such missing Review Materials or other documents or information to correct the insufficiency. If the missing or insufficient Review Materials have not been provided by the Servicer within 15 days, the parties agree that the Subject Receivable will have a Test Fail for the related Test(s) and the Test(s) will be considered a Test Complete and the Review Report will indicate the reason for the Test Fail.

Section 3.4. Performance of Reviews.

(a) Test Procedures. For an Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will perform for each Subject Receivable the procedures listed under “Tests” in Schedule A for each representation and warranty (each, a “Test”), using the Review Materials listed for each such Test in Schedule A. For each Test and Subject Receivable, the Asset Representations Reviewer will determine if the Test has been satisfied (a “Test Pass”) or if the Test has not been satisfied (a “Test Fail”).

(b) Review Period. The Asset Representations Reviewer will complete the Review of all of the Subject Receivables within sixty (60) days after receiving access to the Review Materials under Section 3.3(a). However, if additional Review Materials are provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer under Section 3.3(b), the Review period will be extended for an additional thirty (30) days.

(c) Completion of Review for Certain Subject Receivables. Following the delivery of the list of the Subject Receivables and before the delivery of the Review Report by the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Servicer may notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if a Subject Receivable is paid in full by the Obligor or purchased from the Issuer by the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Servicer according to the Basic Documents. On receipt of notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will immediately terminate all Tests of such Receivables and the Review of such Receivables will be considered complete (a “Test Complete”). In this case, the Review Report will indicate a Test Complete for the Receivables and the related reason.

(d) Previously Reviewed Receivable. If any Subject Receivable was included in a prior Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not perform any Tests on it, but will include the results of the previous Tests in the Review Report for the current Asset Review.

(e) Termination of Review. If an Asset Review is in process and the Notes will be paid in full on the next Distribution Date, the Servicer will notify the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Indenture Trustee no less than ten (10) days before that Distribution Date. On receipt of notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer will terminate the Asset Review immediately and will have no obligation to deliver a Review Report.

Section 3.5. Review Reports.

(a) Within five (5) days after the end of the Asset Review period under Section 3.4(b), the Asset Representations Reviewer will deliver to the Issuer, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee a Review Report indicating for each Subject Receivable whether there was a Test Pass or a Test Fail for each Test, or whether the Subject Receivable was a Test Complete and the related reason. The Review Report will contain a summary of the findings and conclusions of the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the Asset Review to be included in the Issuer’s Form 10-D report for the Collection Period in which the Review Report is received. The Asset Representations Reviewer will ensure that the Review Report does not contain any Issuer PII.

(b) Questions About Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer will make appropriate personnel available to respond in writing to written questions or requests for clarification of any Review Report from the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer until the earlier of (i) payment in full of the Notes and (ii) one (1) year after the delivery of the Review Report. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation to respond to questions or requests for clarification from Noteholders or any Person other than the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer and will direct such Persons to submit written questions or requests to the Servicer.

Section 3.6. Dispute Resolution. If a Receivable that was reviewed by the Asset Representations Reviewer is the subject of a dispute resolution proceeding under Section 10.13 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Asset Representations Reviewer will participate in the dispute resolution proceeding on request of a party to the proceeding. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer together with reasonable compensation for the time it incurs in connection with its participation in any dispute resolution proceeding will be considered expenses of the Requesting Party for the dispute resolution and will be paid by a party to the dispute resolution as determined by the mediator or arbitrator for the dispute resolution according to Section 10.13 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. If not paid by a party to the dispute resolution, the expenses will be reimbursed by the Issuer according to Section 4.3(a).

Section 3.7. Limitations on Review Obligations.

(a) Review Process Limitations. The Asset Representations Reviewer will have no obligation:

(ii) to determine which Receivables are subject to an Asset Review, and may rely on the lists of Subject Receivables provided by the Servicer;

(vi) to establish cause, materiality or recourse for any failed Test.

(b) Testing Procedure Limitations. The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the testing procedures listed under “Tests” in Schedule A, and will have no obligation to perform additional procedures on any Subject Receivable or to provide any information other than a Review Report indicating for each Subject Receivable whether there was a Test Pass or a Test Fail for each Test, or whether the Subject Receivable was a Test Complete and the related reason. However, the Asset Representations Reviewer may provide additional information about any Subject Receivable that it determines in good faith to be material to the Review.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will maintain all relevant books, records, reports and other documents and materials for a period of at least two years after the termination of its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 4.7. Delegation of Obligations. The Asset Representations Reviewer may not delegate or subcontract its obligations under this Agreement to any Person without the consent of the Issuer, the Sponsor and the Servicer.

Section 4.8. Confidential Information.

(a) Treatment. The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to hold and treat Confidential Information given to it under this Agreement in confidence and under the terms and conditions of this Section 4.8, and will implement and maintain safeguards to further assure the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. The Confidential Information will not, without the prior consent of the Issuer, the Sponsor and the Servicer, be disclosed or used by the Asset Representations Reviewer, or its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or affiliates, including legal counsel (collectively, the “Information Recipients”) other than for the purposes of performing Asset Reviews of Subject Receivables or performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates to not (i) purchase or sell securities issued by NMAC or its Affiliates or special purpose entities on the basis of Confidential Information or (ii) use the Confidential Information for the preparation of research reports, newsletters or other publications or similar communications.

(d) Disclosure. If the Asset Representations Reviewer is required by applicable law, regulation, rule or order issued by an administrative, governmental, regulatory or judicial authority to disclose part of the Confidential Information, it may disclose the Confidential Information. However, before a required disclosure, the Asset Representations Reviewer, if permitted by law, regulation, rule or order, will use its reasonable efforts to provide the Issuer, the Sponsor and the Servicer with notice of the requirement and will cooperate, at the Sponsor’s expense, in the Issuer’s and the Sponsor’s pursuit of a proper protective order or other relief for the disclosure of the Confidential Information. If the Issuer or the Sponsor is unable to obtain a protective order or other proper remedy by the date that the information is required to be disclosed, the Asset Representations Reviewer will disclose only that part of the Confidential Information that it is advised by its legal counsel it is legally required to disclose.

(e) Responsibility for Information Recipients. The Asset Representations Reviewer will be responsible for a breach of this Section 4.8 by its Information Recipients.

(ii) The Asset Representations Reviewer will not sell, disclose, provide or exchange Issuer PII with or to any third party without the prior consent of the Issuer.

(d) Notice of Breach.

(e) Return or Disposal of Issuer PII. Except where return or disposal is prohibited by applicable law, promptly on the earlier of the completion of the Review or the request of the Issuer, all Issuer PII in any medium in the Asset Representations Reviewer’s possession or under its control will be (i) destroyed in a manner that prevents its recovery or restoration or (ii) if so directed by the Issuer, returned to the Issuer without the Asset Representations Reviewer retaining any actual or recoverable copies, in both cases, without charge to the Issuer.
