hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Company
(collectively, the "Conveyance"), without recourse except as provided
herein, all its right, title and interest in, to and under the following
(the "Purchased Assets"):
(i) the Receivables and all moneys due thereon
on or after the Cutoff Date, in the case of Precomputed
Receivables, or all moneys received thereon on and after the
Cutoff Date, in the case of Simple Interest Receivables;
(ii) the security interests in the Financed
Vehicles granted by Obligors pursuant to the Receivables and any
other interest of the Seller in such Financed Vehicles;
(iii) any proceeds with respect to the
Receivables from claims on any physical damage, theft, credit life
or disability insurance policies covering Financed Vehicles or
Obligors;
(iv) any Financed Vehicle that shall have
secured any such Initial Receivable and shall have been acquired
by or on behalf of the Seller, the Servicer or the Trust;
(v) all other assets comprising the estate of
the Trust; and
(vi) the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.
(b) In connection with such Conveyance, the Seller agrees
(i) to record and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and
continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when
applicable) with respect to the Receivables meeting the requirements of
applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are
necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the Conveyance of such
Purchased Assets from the Seller to the Company, (ii) that such financing
statements shall name the Seller, as seller, and the Company, as purchaser,
of the Receivables and (iii) to deliver a file-stamped copy of such
financing statements or other evidence of such filings (excluding such
continuation statements, which shall be delivered as filed) to the Company
as soon as is practicable after filing.
(c) In connection with such Conveyance, the Seller
further agrees that it will, at its own expense, (i) on or prior to the
Closing Date indicate in its computer files that the Receivables have been
conveyed to the Company in accordance with this Agreement and have been
conveyed by the Company to the Trustee pursuant to the [Pooling and
Servicing] [Trust] Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders [and
the Noteholders] and (ii) on or prior to the Closing Date deliver to the
Company a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete
list of the Receivables specifying for each Receivable, as of the Cutoff

alter the indication referenced in clause (i) of this paragraph with
respect to any Receivable during the term of this Agreement.

constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the
parties hereto that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement
under applicable law, and that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted
and does hereby grant to the Company a first priority perfected security
interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in all of the Seller's
right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables and other

(i) Characteristics of Receivables. Each
Receivable (1) was originated by the Seller or acquired from a
motor vehicle dealer or another financial institution by the

created a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority
security interest in favor of the Seller in the Financed Vehicle,
which security interest is assignable by the Seller and the
Company, (3) contains customary and enforceable provisions such
that the rights and remedies of the holder thereof shall be
adequate for realization against the collateral of the benefits of
the security, (4) provides for level monthly payments (provided
that the payment in the first or last month in the life of the
Receivable may be minimally different from the level payments)
that fully amortize the Amount Financed by maturity and yield
interest at the Annual Percentage Rate, and (5) in the case of a
Precomputed Receivable, in the event that such contract is
prepaid, provides for a prepayment that fully pays the Principal
Balance and includes accrued but unpaid interest through the date
of prepayment at the Annual Percentage Rate.
(ii) Schedule of Receivables. The information
set forth in Schedule I to this Agreement is true and correct in
all material respects as of the opening of business on the Cutoff
Date, and no selection procedures believed to be adverse to the
Certificateholders were utilized in selecting the Receivables. The
computer tape or other listing regarding the Receivables made
available to the Trustee is true and correct in all material
respects as of the Cutoff Date.
(iii) Compliance with Law. Each Receivable and
the sale of the Financed Vehicle complied in all material respects
at the time it was originated or made and at the execution of this
Agreement with 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 Reporting Act, the

consumer credit laws and equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws.
(iv) Binding Obligation. Each Receivable
represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment
obligation in writing of the Obligor, enforceable by the holder
thereof in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and similar laws now or
hereafter in effect relating to or affecting creditors' rights
generally and to general principles of equity (whether applied in
a proceeding at law or in equity).
(v) No Government Obligor. None of the
Receivables is due from the United States of America or any State
or from any agency, department or instrumentality of the United
States of America or any State.
(vi) Security Interest in Financed Vehicle.
Immediately prior to the sale, assignment and transfer thereof to
the Trustee, each Receivable shall be secured by a validly
perfected first security interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor
of the Seller as secured party or all necessary and appropriate
actions have been commenced that would result in the valid
perfection of a first security interest in the Financed Vehicle in
favor of the Seller as secured party.

been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor has any Financed
Vehicle been released from the lien granted by the related

has been waived in such a manner that the Receivable fails to meet
any other representation or warranty of the Seller with respect
thereto.

been amended such that the amount of the Obligor's Scheduled
Payments shall have been increased except for increases resulting
from the inclusion of any premiums for forced placed physical
damage insurance covering the Financed Vehicle.

Seller that would give rise to any right of rescission, setoff,
counterclaim or defense, nor shall the same have been asserted or
threatened, with respect to any Receivable.

knowledge, no liens or claims have been filed for work, labor or

equal or coordinate with, the security interest in the Financed
Vehicle granted by the Receivable.

that is more than 90 days overdue as of the related Cutoff Date
and, except as permitted in this paragraph, no default, breach,
violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any
Receivable has occurred; no continuing condition that with notice
or the lapse of time would constitute a default, breach, violation
or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable
has arisen; and the Seller has not waived and shall not waive any
of the foregoing.

its customary procedures, has determined that the Obligor has
obtained physical damage insurance covering the Financed Vehicle
and under the terms of the Receivable the Obligor is required to
maintain such insurance.

that the transfer and assignment herein contemplated constitute a
