ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES
ARTICLE 1.1 DUTIES OF THE SERVICER . The Servicer is hereby appointed and
authorized to act as agent for the Owner of the Receivables and in such capacity
shall manage, service, administer and make collections on the Receivables with
reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer
exercises with respect to comparable automotive receivables that it services for
itself or others. The Servicer hereby accepts such appointment and authorization
and agrees to perform the duties of Servicer with respect to the Receivables set
forth herein and in the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements. The
Servicer's duties shall include collection and posting of all payments,
responding to inquiries of Obligors, investigating delinquencies, sending
payment coupons to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, policing the
collateral, accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual
statements to the Owner of any Receivables with respect to distributions,
generating federal income tax information and performing the other duties
specified herein. Subject to the provisions of SECTION 3.02, the Servicer shall
follow its customary standards, policies and procedures and shall have full
power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with
such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem
necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Owner of the Receivables,
pursuant to this SECTION 3.01, to execute and deliver, on behalf of all
Interested Parties, or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other
comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables and the Financed
Vehicles. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name or in
the name of the Owner of such Receivable a legal proceeding to enforce a
Liquidating Receivable as contemplated by SECTION 3.04, to enforce all
obligations of GMAC and XXXX under this Agreement and under the Further Transfer
and Servicing Agreements or to commence or participate in a legal proceeding
(including without limitation a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving
a Receivable or a Liquidating Receivable. If the Servicer commences or
participates in such a legal proceeding in its own name, the Owner of such
Receivable shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned such
Receivable to the Servicer for purposes of commencing or participating in any
such proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is hereby authorized
and empowered by the Owner of a Receivable to execute and deliver in the
Servicer's name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits
or other documents or instruments in connection with any such proceeding. Any
Owner of Receivables shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and
other documents and take any other steps which the Servicer may deem necessary
or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and
administrative duties under this Agreement and the Further Transfer and
Servicing Agreements. Except to the extent required by the preceding two
sentences, the authority and rights granted to the Servicer in this SECTION 3.01
shall be nonexclusive and shall not be construed to be in derogation of the
retention by the Owner of a Receivable of equivalent authority and rights.
ARTICLE 1.2
ARTICLE 1.3 COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLE PAYMENTS. The 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 practices, policies and procedures as it follows with
respect to comparable automotive receivables that it services for itself or
others. Except as provided in SUBSECTION 3.07(A)(III), the Servicer is hereby
authorized to grant extensions, rebates or adjustments on a Receivable without
the prior consent of the Owner of such Receivable. The Servicer is authorized in
its discretion to waive any prepayment charge, late payment charge or any other
fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing such Receivable.
ARTICLE 1.4
ARTICLE 1.5 REBATES ON FULL PREPAYMENTS ON SCHEDULED INTEREST RECEIVABLES . If
the amount of a full Prepayment by an Obligor under a Scheduled Interest
Receivable, after adjustment for the Rebate, is less than the amount that would
be payable under the actuarial method if a full Prepayment were made at the end
of the billing month under such Scheduled Interest Receivable, either because
the Rebate calculated under the terms of such Receivable is greater than the
amount calculable under the actuarial method or because the Servicer's customary
servicing procedure is to credit a greater Rebate, the Servicer, as part of its
servicing duties, shall remit such difference to the Owner of such Receivable.
ARTICLE 1.6
ARTICLE 1.7 REALIZATION UPON LIQUIDATING RECEIVABLES . The Servicer shall use
reasonable efforts, consistent with its customary servicing procedures, to
repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of any Financed Vehicle
that it has reasonably determined should be repossessed or otherwise converted
following a default under the Receivable secured by the Financed Vehicle. The
Servicer is authorized to follow such practices, policies and procedures as it
follows with respect to comparable automotive receivables that it services for
itself or others, which practices, policies and procedures may include
reasonable efforts to realize upon any recourse to Dealers, selling the related
Financed Vehicle at public or private sale and other actions by the Servicer in
order to realize upon such a Receivable. The foregoing is subject to the
provision that, in any case in which the Financed Vehicle shall have suffered
damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any repair or
towards the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in
its discretion that such repair and/or repossession shall increase the proceeds
of liquidation of the related Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of
such expenses. The Servicer shall be entitled to receive Liquidation Expenses
with respect to each Liquidating Receivable at such time as the Receivable
becomes a Liquidating Receivable (or as may otherwise be provided in the Further
Transfer and Servicing Agreements).
ARTICLE 1.8
ARTICLE 1.9 MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE POLICIES . The Servicer shall, in
accordance with its customary servicing procedures, require that each Obligor
shall have obtained physical damage insurance covering the Financed Vehicle as
of the execution of the related Receivable. The Servicer shall, in accordance
with its customary servicing procedures, monitor such physical damage insurance
with respect to each Receivable.
ARTICLE 1.10
ARTICLE 1.11 MAINTENANCE OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN VEHICLES . The Servicer shall,
in accordance with its customary servicing procedures and at its own expense,
take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest
created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Owner of each
Receivable hereby authorizes the Servicer to re-perfect such security interest
on behalf of such Owner, as necessary because of the relocation of a Financed
Vehicle, or for any other reason.
ARTICLE 1.12
ARTICLE 1.13 COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SERVICER . As of
the closing hereunder, the Servicer hereby makes the following representations,
warranties and covenants on which XXXX relies in accepting the Receivables
hereunder and on which the Issuer shall rely in accepting the Receivables and
executing and delivering the Securities under the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements.
ARTICLE 1.14
(a) The Servicer covenants that from and after the closing hereunder:

Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, the Servicer shall not
release in whole or in part any Financed Vehicle from the
security interest securing the related Receivable;
(i) NO IMPAIRMENT. The Servicer shall do nothing to impair the rights
of XXXX or any Interested Party in and to the Receivables; and
(i) NO MODIFICATIONS. The Servicer shall not amend or otherwise
modify any Receivable such that the Amount Financed, the Annual
Percentage Rate, the total number of Scheduled Payments (in the
case of a Scheduled Interest Receivable) or the number of
originally scheduled due dates (in the case of a Simple Interest
Receivable), is altered or such that the last Scheduled Payment
(in the case of a Scheduled Interest Receivable) or the last
scheduled due date (in the case of a Simple Interest Receivable)
occurs after the final scheduled payment date that is specified
in SECTION 4.01(R).
(a) Upon the execution of the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements,
the Servicer represents and warrants to the Issuer and XXXX that in
addition to the representations and warranties in SECTIONS 4.01 AND

(i) ORGANIZATION AND GOOD STANDING. The Servicer had at all relevant
times, and now has, power, authority and legal right to service
the Receivables as provided herein and in the Further Transfer
and Servicing Agreements;
(i) POWER AND AUTHORITY. The Servicer has the power and authority to
execute and deliver the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements
and to carry out the terms of such agreements; and the Servicer's
execution, delivery and performance of the Further Transfer and
Servicing Agreements have been duly authorized by the Servicer by
all necessary corporate action;
(i) BINDING OBLIGATION. The Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements, when duly executed and delivered, shall constitute
the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Servicer
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement
of creditors' rights in general and by general principles of
equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(i) NO VIOLATION. The consummation by the Servicer of the
transactions contemplated by the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements, and the fulfillment by the Servicer of the terms of
the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, shall not conflict
with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of,
or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default
under, the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Servicer,
or any indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other
instrument to which the Servicer is a party or by which it is
bound, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon
any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such
indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other
instrument, other than the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements, or violate any law or, to the best of the Servicer's
knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the
Servicer of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality
having jurisdiction over the Servicer or any of its properties;
(i) NO PROCEEDINGS. To the Servicer's knowledge, there are no
proceedings or investigations pending, or threatened, before any
court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal
or governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the
Servicer or its properties (A) asserting the invalidity of the
Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements or any Securities
issued thereunder, (B) seeking to prevent the issuance of such
Securities or the consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated by the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, or
(C) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and
adversely affect the performance by the Servicer of its
obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, the
Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements; and
(i) REASONABLE LIQUIDATION EXPENSES. The amounts defined as
"LIQUIDATION EXPENSES" are a reasonable estimate of such
expenses, reasonably related to the Servicer's experience for
such expenses in servicing comparable automotive receivables.
ARTICLE 1.1 PURCHASE OF RECEIVABLES UPON BREACH OF COVENANT . Upon discovery by
any of the Servicer, XXXX or any party under the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements of a breach of any of the covenants set forth in SECTIONS 3.06 AND
3.07(A), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice
thereof to the others. As of the last day of the second Monthly Period following
its discovering or receiving notice of such breach (or, at the Servicer's
election, the last day of the first Monthly Period so following), the Servicer
shall, unless it shall have cured such breach in all material respects, purchase
from the Owner thereof any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such
breach as determined by such Owner and, on the related Distribution Date, the
Servicer shall pay the Administrative Purchase Payment, and shall be entitled to
receive the Released Administrative Amount, if any. It is understood and agreed
that the obligation of the Servicer to purchase any Receivable with respect to
which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall, if such obligation is
fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against the Servicer for such breach
available to XXXX or any Interested Party.
ARTICLE 1.2
ARTICLE 1.3 TOTAL SERVICING FEE; PAYMENT OF CERTAIN EXPENSES BY SERVICER . The
Servicer is entitled to receive the Total Servicing Fee and Supplemental
Servicing Fees out of collections in respect of the Receivables. The Servicer
shall also be entitled to Investment Earnings as set forth in the Further
Transfer and Servicing Agreements. Subject to any limitations on the Servicer's
liability under the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, the Servicer
shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its
activities under this Agreement and under the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements (including fees and disbursements of the Issuer, any trustees and
independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred in
connection with distributions and reports to holders of Securities and all other
fees and expenses not expressly stated under this Agreement or the Further
Transfer and Servicing Agreements to be for the account of the holders of
Securities).
ARTICLE 1.4
ARTICLE 1.5 SERVICER'S ACCOUNTING . On each Determination Date under a Further
Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver to each of the
trustees and other applicable parties under the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements and to XXXX and the Rating Agencies a Servicer's Accounting with
respect to the immediately preceding Monthly Period executed by the President or
any Vice President of the Servicer containing all information necessary to each
such party for making any distributions required by the Further Transfer and
Servicing Agreements, and all information necessary to each such party for
sending any statements required under the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements. Receivables to be purchased by the Servicer under SECTIONS 3.08 OR
5.04 or to be repurchased by XXXX or GMAC under the Further Transfer and
Servicing Agreements as of the last day of any Monthly Period shall be
identified by Receivable number (as set forth in the Schedule of Receivables).
With respect to any Receivables for which XXXX is the Owner, the Servicer shall
deliver to XXXX such accountings relating to such Receivables and the actions of
the Servicer with respect thereto as XXXX may reasonably request.
ARTICLE 1.6
ARTICLE 1.7 APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS . For the purposes of this Agreement and
the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, no later than each Distribution
Date all collections for the related Monthly Period shall be applied by the
Servicer as follows:
ARTICLE 1.8
(a) With respect to each Scheduled Interest Receivable (other than an
Administrative Receivable or a Warranty Receivable), payments by or on
behalf of the Obligor which are not Supplemental Servicing Fees shall
be applied first to reduce outstanding advances of shortfalls in
collections, if any, made pursuant to the Further Transfer and
Servicing Agreements with respect to such Receivable. Next, the amount
of any such payments in excess of Supplemental Servicing Fees and any
such advances with respect to such Receivable shall be applied to the
Scheduled Payment with respect to such Receivable. Any amount of such
payments remaining after the applications described in the preceding
two sentences constitutes an Excess Payment with respect to such
Receivable, and such Excess Payment (to the extent it does not
constitute a Payment Ahead) shall be applied to prepay such
Receivable. If the amounts applied under the first two sentences of
this SUBSECTION 3.11(A) shall be less than the Scheduled Payment,
whether as a result of any extension granted to the Obligor or
otherwise, then the Deferred Prepayment, if any, with respect to such
Receivable shall be applied by the Servicer to the extent of the
shortfall, and such Deferred Prepayment shall be reduced accordingly.
(b)
(c) With respect to all Simple Interest Receivables (other than
Administrative Receivables and Warranty Receivables), payments by or
on behalf of the Obligors which are not Supplemental Servicing Fees
shall be applied first to the payment to the Servicer of Excess Simple
Interest Collections, if any, and next to principal and interest on
all such Simple Interest Receivables.
(d)
(e) With respect to each Administrative Receivable and Warranty
Receivable, payments by or on behalf of the Obligor shall be applied
in the same manner, except that any Released Administrative Amount or
Released Warranty Amount shall be remitted to the Servicer or XXXX, as
applicable. In the case of a Scheduled Interest Receivable, a Warranty
Payment shall be applied to reduce any advances described in SECTION
3.11(A) and such Warranty Payment or an Administrative Purchase
Payment, as applicable, shall be applied to the Scheduled Payment, in
each case to the extent that the payments by or on behalf of the
Obligor shall be insufficient, and then to prepay such Receivable in
full. In the case of a Simple Interest Receivable, a Warranty Payment
or an Administrative Payment, as applicable, shall be applied to
principal and interest on such Receivable.

ARTICLE IV
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
ARTICLE 1.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES AS TO THE RECEIVABLES . GMAC makes
the following representations and warranties as to the Receivables on which XXXX
relies in accepting the Receivables. Such representations and warranties speak
as of the date hereof, as of the closing hereunder and as of the closing under
the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements, and shall survive the sale,
transfer and assignment of the Receivables to XXXX and the subsequent assignment
and transfer pursuant to the Further Transfer and Servicing Agreements:
(a) CHARACTERISTICS OF RECEIVABLES. Each Receivable (i) was originated by
a Dealer for the retail sale of a Financed Vehicle in the ordinary
course of such Dealer's business, was fully and properly executed by
the parties thereto, was purchased by GMAC from such Dealer under an
existing Dealer Agreement, and was validly assigned by such Dealer to
GMAC in accordance with its terms, (ii) has created or shall create a
valid, binding and enforceable first priority security interest in
favor of GMAC in the Financed Vehicle, which security interest is
assignable by GMAC to XXXX, (iii) contains customary and enforceable
provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof adequate for realization against the collateral of the
benefits of the security, (iv) provides for level monthly payments
(provided that the payment in the first month and the final month of
the life of the Receivable may be different from the level payment)
that shall amortize the Amount Financed by maturity and shall yield
interest at the Annual Percentage Rate and (v) is a Simple Interest
Receivable;
(b)
(c) SCHEDULE OF RECEIVABLES. The information set forth in the Schedule of
Receivables is true and correct in all material respects, and no
selection procedures believed to be adverse to XXXX or to holders of
the Securities issued under the Further Transfer and Servicing
Agreements were utilized in selecting the Receivables from those
receivables of GMAC which meet the selection criteria under this
Agreement;
(d)
(e) COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. All requirements of applicable federal, state and
local laws, and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation,
usury laws, the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit
Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Billing Act, the Fair Credit
Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal
Trade Commission Act, the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxx Warranty Act, the Federal
Reserve Board's Regulations "B" and "Z", the Soldiers' and Sailors'
Civil Relief Act of 1940, the Texas Consumer Credit Code, and state
adaptations of the National Consumer Act and of the Uniform Consumer
Credit Code and other consumer credit laws and equal credit
opportunity and disclosure laws, in respect of any of the Receivables,
have been complied with in all material respects, and each Receivable
and the sale of the Financed Vehicle evidenced thereby complied at the
time it was originated or made and now complies in all material
respects with all legal requirements of the jurisdiction in which it
was originated or made;
(f)
(g) BINDING OBLIGATION. Each Receivable represents the genuine, legal,
valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the Obligor
thereon, enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting the enforcement
of creditors' rights in general and by equity, regardless of whether
such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(h)
(i) SECURITY INTEREST IN FINANCED VEHICLE. Immediately prior to the sale,
transfer and assignment thereof pursuant hereto, each Receivable was
secured by a validly perfected first priority security interest in the
Financed Vehicle in favor of GMAC as secured party or all necessary
and appropriate action had been commenced that would result in the
valid perfection of a first priority security interest in the Financed
Vehicle in favor of GMAC as secured party;
(j)
(k) RECEIVABLES IN FORCE. No Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated
or rescinded, and the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable
has not been released from the lien of the related Receivable in whole
or in part;
(l)
(m) NO WAIVER. Since the Cutoff Date, no provision of a Receivable has
been waived, altered or modified in any respect;
(n)
(o) NO DEFENSES. No right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense
has been asserted or threatened with respect to any Receivable;
(p)
(q) NO LIENS. There are, to the best of GMAC's knowledge, no liens or
