If such registration statement (the “initial registration statement”) has been declared effective, either (i) any additional registration statement (the “additional registration statement”) relating to the Notes has been filed with the Commission pursuant to rule 462(b) (“Rule 462(b)”) under the Act and declared effective upon filing, and the Notes have been registered under the Act pursuant to the initial registration statement and such additional registration statement or (ii) any such additional registration statement proposed to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b) will become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(b) and upon such filing the Notes will have been duly registered under the Act pursuant to the initial registration statement and such additional registration statement. If the Seller does not propose to amend the initial registration statement, any such additional registration statement or any post-effective amendment to either such registration statement filed with the Commission prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, then the most recent amendment (if any) to each such registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission or has become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) under the Act (“Rule 462(c)”) or Rule 462(b).
     For purposes of this Agreement, “Effective Time” with respect to the initial registration statement or, if filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the additional registration statement means (A) if the Seller has advised the Representative that it does not propose to amend such registration statement, the date and time as of which such registration statement, or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto (if any) filed prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, was declared effective by the Commission or has become effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(c) or (B) if the Seller has advised the Representative that it proposes to file an amendment or post-effective amendment to such registration statement, the date and time as of which such registration statement as amended by such amendment or post-effective amendment, as the case may be, is declared effective by the Commission. If the Seller has advised the Representative that it proposes to file, but has not filed, an additional registration statement, “Effective Time” with respect to such additional registration statement means the date and time as of which such registration statement is filed and becomes effective pursuant to Rule 462(b). “Effective Date” with respect to the initial registration statement or the additional registration statement (if any) means the date of the Effective Time thereof.
     The initial registration statement and all amendments and supplements thereto, as amended at its Effective Time, including all information (A) contained in the additional registration statement (if any), (B) deemed to be a part of the initial registration statement as of the Effective Time of the additional registration statement (if any) pursuant to the General Instructions of the Form on which it is filed and (C) deemed to be a part of the initial registration statement as of its Effective Time pursuant to Rule 430A(b) under the Act (“Rule 430A(b)”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Registration Statement.” The additional registration statement and all amendments and supplements thereto, as amended at its Effective Time, including the contents of the initial registration statement incorporated by reference therein and
         
    2   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

The preliminary prospectus supplement, dated September 7, 2005, relating to the Notes (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”) and the prospectus, dated September 7, 2005 (the “Preliminary Base Prospectus”) relating to the Registered Notes (including the Notes), as filed with the Commission on September 7, 2005 in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Act (Rule 424(b)”), including all material incorporated by reference therein, is hereinafter referred to as the “Preliminary Prospectus.” The prospectus supplement, dated September 8, 2005 (the “Prospectus Supplement”, relating to the Notes and the prospectus, dated September 7, 2005 (the “Base Prospectus”), relating to the Registered Notes (including the Notes), as filed with the Commission in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b), including all material incorporated by reference therein, is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus.”
     (b) (A) On the Effective Date of any Registration Statement whose Effective Time is prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each such Registration Statement conformed, (B) on the date of this Agreement, each such Registration Statement conforms and (C) on any related Effective Date subsequent to the date of this Agreement, each such Registration Statement will conform, in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission (the “Rules and Regulations”) and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939 Act”), and at such times each such Registration Statement, as amended, did not and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. At the time of filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) or, if no such filing is required, at the Effective Date of the Additional Registration Statement that includes the Prospectus, on the date of this Agreement and at the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3(c) hereof), the Prospectus will conform, in all respects to the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations, and does not include, and will not include, any untrue statement of a material fact, nor does the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented, omit, nor will it omit, to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The two preceding sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or Prospectus based upon written information furnished to the Seller by any Underwriter through the Representative specifically for use therein or to that part of the Registration Statement which constitutes the Statement of Qualification under the 1939 Act on Form T-1 (the “Form T-1”) of the Indenture Trustee (which will be represented and warranted to by the Indenture Trustee).

     (f) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing with, any court or governmental agency or body is required to be obtained or made by the Seller or the Servicer for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except such as have been obtained and made under the Act, such as may be required under state securities laws and the filing of any financing statements required to perfect the Trust’s interest in the Receivables.
     (g) Neither the Seller nor the Servicer is in violation of its certificate of incorporation or articles of incorporation, as applicable, or by-laws or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or its properties are bound which would have a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated herein or on the Seller’s or the Servicer’s respective ability to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents. The execution, delivery and performance of the Basic Documents and the issuance and sale of the Notes and compliance with the terms and provisions thereof will not, subject to obtaining any consents or approvals as may be required under the securities or “blue sky” laws of various jurisdictions: (i) result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction over the Seller or the Servicer or their respective properties or any agreement or instrument to which either is a party or by which either is bound or to which any of their respective properties are subject, except where such breach, violation, or default would not

     (k) Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges that have been assessed and are known to the Seller to be due in connection with the execution, delivery and issuance of the Basic Documents shall have been paid by the Seller or the Servicer at or prior to the Closing Date.
     (l) Each of the Seller and the Servicer possesses all material licenses, certificates, authorizations or permits issued by the appropriate state, federal or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies, the absence of which would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Seller or the Servicer to perform its duties under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, and neither of the Seller or Servicer has received notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such license, certificate, authorization or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller or the Servicer to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents.

     (i) The Seller is a corporation validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware with corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as contemplated in the Prospectus, as then amended and supplemented, and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership of its property requires such qualification, except where the failure to be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect on the Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents.
     (ii) The Servicer is a corporation validly existing under the laws of the State of California with corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as contemplated in the Prospectus, as then amended and supplemented, and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership of its property requires such qualification, except where the failure to be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect on the Servicer’s ability to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents.
     (iii) Each of the Seller and the Servicer has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Basic Documents to which it is a party.
     (iv) The execution and delivery by the Servicer and the Seller of each of the Basic Documents to which the Servicer or the Seller is a party and the performance of their respective obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Servicer and the Seller, as applicable, and each of the Basic Documents to which each is a party has been duly executed and delivered by it.
     (v) The execution and delivery by the Seller and the Servicer of the Basic Documents and performance by each of them of their respective obligations thereunder will not violate, result in any breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Seller or the Servicer (other than as contemplated by the Basic Documents) pursuant to the terms of (1) the Servicer’s Articles of Incorporation or the Seller’s Certificate of
         
    11   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

Incorporation, (2) the Servicer’s or the Seller’s By-Laws, (3) any material agreement or instrument to which the Servicer or the Seller is a party or by which either the Servicer, the Seller or any of their respective properties is bound, (4) the Delaware General Corporation Law or any statute, rule, regulation or order of any California or federal governmental agency or body or any court having jurisdiction over the Seller or the Servicer or their respective properties that the undersigned has, in the exercise of customary professional diligence, recognized as applicable to the Servicer or the Seller or to transactions of the type contemplated by the Basic Documents or (5) the Notes.
     (vi) No authorization, approval, consent, order or permit of any California or federal governmental authority is required on the part of the Servicer or the Seller for the execution and delivery of the Basic Documents to which it is a party and the performance of their respective obligations thereunder, except such as may be required under the Act or the Rules and Regulations and state securities laws, and except for such authorizations, approvals or consents (specified in such opinion) as are in full force and effect as of the Effective Date and the Closing Date.
     (vii) Nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would cause her to believe that as of the Effective Date and at the Closing Date the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as then amended and supplemented (other than the financial statements and the other accounting information contained therein or omitted therefrom, as to which such counsel need express no belief) contained or contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or that the descriptions therein of statutes and governmental proceedings and contracts and other documents are inaccurate and do not fairly present the information required to be shown therein.
     (viii) Such counsel does not know of any contract or other document of a character required to be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as then amended and supplemented, which is not filed or described as required.
     (ix) There are no legal or governmental proceedings known by such counsel to be (i) pending for which the Servicer or the Seller has been served official notice, to which the Seller or the Servicer is a party or to which any property of the Seller or the Servicer is subject, and (ii) threatened or contemplated by any governmental authority or threatened by others, which proceedings in either clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph (A) (whether individually or in the aggregate) are required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement or (B)(1) assert the invalidity or unenforceability of all or part of any Basic Document, (2) seek to prevent the issuance of the Notes, (3) (whether individually or in the aggregate) would materially and adversely affect the Seller’s or the Servicer’s obligations under any Basic Document to which it is a party, or (4) (whether individually or in the aggregate) seek to affect adversely the federal or state income tax attributes of the Notes.
         
    12   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

     (x) The Servicer has all necessary corporate power and authority to sell and assign the property to be sold and assigned to the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and has duly authorized such sale and assignment to the Seller by all necessary corporate action.
     (xi) The Seller has all necessary corporate power and authority to sell and assign the property to be sold and assigned to and deposited with the Trust and has duly authorized such sale and assignment to the Trust by all necessary corporate action.
     (xii) The Seller has duly authorized and executed the written order to the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver the issuer order to the Indenture Trustee to authenticate the Notes.

Assuming that the Servicer’s standard procedures are followed with respect to the perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles (and such counsel has no reason to believe that the Servicer has not or will not continue to follow its standard procedures in connection with the perfection of security interests in the Financed Vehicles), the Servicer has acquired or will acquire a perfected first priority security interest in the Financed Vehicles.
     (xiv) Each of the Seller and the Servicer has obtained all necessary governmental licenses and governmental approvals under the federal law of the United States and the laws of the State of California to conduct their respective businesses where the failure to obtain such licenses and approvals would render any material part of the corpus of the Trust to be unenforceable or would materially and adversely affect the ability of either the Seller or the Servicer to perform any of their respective obligations under, or the enforceability of, any of the Basic Documents.
     (g) Xxxxx, Xxxxx, Xxxx & Maw LLP, special counsel to the Seller and the Servicer, shall have furnished to the Representative their written opinion, dated as of the Closing Date, in substantially the form set forth below, with such changes therein as counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably agree:

     (ii) Each of the Basic Documents to which the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, is a party has been duly executed and delivered by and on behalf of the Seller or the Servicer, respectively.
         
    13   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

     (iii) Each of the Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the Assignment, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Yield Supplement Agreement, the Securities Account Control Agreement and the Administration Agreement to which the Seller, the Trust or the Servicer, as applicable, is a party constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms.
     (iv) The execution and delivery by each of the Seller and the Servicer of each Basic Document to which the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, is a party does not, and the consummation by the Seller and the Servicer, respectively, of the transactions contemplated thereby to occur on the date of the opinion will not, require any consent, authorization or approval of, the giving of notice to or registration with any governmental entity, except such as may have been made and such as may be required under the federal securities laws, the blue sky laws of any jurisdiction or the Uniform Commercial Code of any state; provided that such counsel expresses no opinion with respect to any orders, consents, permits, approvals, filings or licenses related to the authority to sell motor vehicles, originate retail installment sale contracts or service retail installment sale contracts or as may be required by any regional or local governmental authority or under any foreign or state securities laws.
     (v) Each of the Notes is in due and proper form, and when executed, authenticated and delivered as specified in the Indenture, and delivered against payment of the consideration specified in this Agreement, each of the Notes will be validly issued and outstanding, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Trust, enforceable against the Trust in accordance with its terms, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.
     (vi) The Indenture has been duly qualified under the 1939 Act, and complies as to form with the 1939 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

     (viii) The Registration Statement has become effective under the Act, and the Prospectus has been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b). To the best of such counsel’s knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened by the Commission.
         
    14   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

     (ix) The statements in the Base Prospectus under “Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences,” “Material Legal Aspects of the Receivables” and “ERISA Considerations” and the statements in the Prospectus Supplement under “Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences” and “ERISA Considerations” to the extent they constitute matters of law or legal conclusions with respect thereto, have been reviewed by such counsel and are correct in all material respects.
     (x) Each of the Basic Documents and the Notes conform in all material respects to the respective descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as then amended and supplemented.
     (xi) Neither the Seller nor the Trust is an investment company required to register under the 1940 Act.
     (xii) Neither the Trust Agreement nor the Sale and Servicing Agreement is required to be qualified under the 1939 Act.
     (xiii) Each Class A-1 Note, when issued, will constitute an “Eligible Security” under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act.
     (xiv) To the knowledge of such counsel, there are no actions, proceedings or investigations, pending or threatened, to which the Seller or the Servicer is a party or of which any property of the Seller or the Servicer is the subject, required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, other than those disclosed therein, (i) asserting the invalidity of any Basic Document or the Notes, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by any Basic Document, or (iii) seeking adversely to affect the federal income tax attributes of the Notes as described in the Prospectus Supplement under the heading “Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences” or the Base Prospectus under the heading “Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences.”
     (xv) At the time of the execution and delivery of (i) the Purchase Agreement, the Servicer had the corporate power and corporate authority to transfer the Receivables and such other property being transferred to the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Seller had the corporate power and corporate authority to transfer the Receivables and such other property being transferred to the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and to cause the transfer of the Notes to the Underwriters.

     (xvii) No filing or other action (other than the filing of the financing statements with respect to the assignments and collateral assignments of the Receivables) is necessary to perfect the Trust’s pledge to the Indenture Trustee and the grant in favor of the Indenture Trustee of any security interest in favor of NMAC arising under the California Vehicle Code in Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables.

In addition, as special counsel to the Seller and the Servicer, such counsel has reviewed the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Seller and the Servicer, representatives of their independent public accountants, representatives of the Underwriters and their counsel, at which the contents of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed. The purpose of such counsel’s professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and such counsel has not undertaken any obligation to verify independently any of the factual matters set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. Moreover, many of the determinations required to be made in the preparation of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus involve matters of a non-legal nature. Subject to the foregoing, such counsel confirms to the Underwriters that, on the basis of the information such counsel gained in the course of performing the services referred to above, nothing came to such counsel’s attention that caused such counsel to believe that the Registration Statement, on the effective date thereof, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that the Prospectus, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, and as of the Closing Date, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that such counsel does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (except, to the extent set forth in paragraphs II.I and II.J of its opinion, to be delivered on the Closing Date, with respect to certain corporate matters). In addition, such counsel does not express any belief with respect to (i) the financial statements or notes thereto, or the other financial, statistical or accounting data contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or (ii) the Indenture Trustee’s Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1.
Such counsel’s opinions as to the legal, valid and binding nature and enforceability of any agreement or instrument are subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) to general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including concepts of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief. In addition, such counsel expresses no opinion regarding: (i) any severability provision in the Basic Documents; or (ii) any provision of any Basic Documents that purports to (a) appoint any person as the attorney-in-fact of any other person, (b) provide that all rights
         
    16   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

or remedies of any party are cumulative and may be enforced in addition to any other right or remedy and that the election of a particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more remedies, (c) permit set-off in the absence of mutuality between the parties, (d) confer subject matter jurisdiction on a federal court to adjudicate any controversy in any situation in which such court would not have subject matter jurisdiction, or (e) waive the right to jury trial or any right to object to the laying of venue or any claim that an action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The opinions of such counsel with respect to any agreement of the Seller or the Servicer to indemnify any person (including by way of contribution) are subject to the qualifications that any indemnity obligation may be limited by public policy considerations and may be subject to defenses available to sureties arising from actions of the indemnified party.
     (h) Mayer, Brown, Xxxx & Maw LLP or such counsel as may be acceptable to the Underwriters, shall have furnished their written opinion, dated the Closing Date, with respect to the characterization of the transfer of the Receivables by the Servicer to the Seller and with respect to other bankruptcy and perfection of security interest matters, and such opinion shall be in substantially the form previously discussed with the Representative and its counsel and in any event satisfactory in form and in substance to the Representative and its counsel.
     (i) You shall have received an opinion of Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx LLP, counsel to the Underwriters, dated the Closing Date, with respect to the validity of the Notes and such other related matters as the Representative shall require, and the Seller shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to such counsel such documents as they may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
     (j) You shall have received an opinion addressed to you, the Seller and the Servicer of Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Finger, counsel to the Trust and the Owner Trustee, dated the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to the Representative and its counsel, to the effect that:
     (i) The Owner Trustee is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing as a banking corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware.
     (ii) The Owner Trustee has power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Trust Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.
     (iii) The Trust Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Owner Trustee and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Owner Trustee, except as the enforceability thereof may be (a) limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally and (b) subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in proceedings in equity or at law) as well as concepts of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.
     (iv) Neither the execution or delivery by the Owner Trustee of the Trust Agreement nor the consummation by the Owner Trustee of any of the transactions
         
    17   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

contemplated thereby nor compliance by the Owner Trustee with the terms or provisions of the Trust Agreement will violate any Delaware or United States federal law, rule or regulation governing the trust powers of the Owner Trustee or the Owner Trustee’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or require the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking of any other action with respect to, any governmental authority or agency under the laws of the State of Delaware or the United States governing the trust powers of the Owner Trustee other than the filing of the Trust’s certificate of trust (the “Certificate of Trust”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Secretary of State”).
     (v) The Certificate of Trust has been duly filed with the Secretary of State. The Trust has been duly formed and is validly existing as a statutory trust and is in good standing under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, 12 Del. C. § 3801, et seq. (the “Trust Act”), and has the power and authority under the Trust Agreement and the Trust Act to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each Basic Document to which the Trust is a party (collectively, the “Trust Documents”), to issue the Notes and to pledge the trust estate to the Indenture Trustee as security for the Notes under the Indenture.
     (vi) The Notes and the Trust Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trust.
     (vii) The Trust Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller and the Owner Trustee, enforceable against the Seller and the Owner Trustee, in accordance with its terms.
     (viii) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Trust of the Trust Documents, nor the consummation by the Trust of any of the transactions contemplated thereby, requires the consent or approval of, the withholding of objection on the part of, the giving of notice to, the filing, registration or qualification with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any governmental authority or agency of the State of Delaware, other than the filing of the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State.
     (ix) Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Trust of the Trust Documents, nor the consummation by the Trust of the transactions contemplated thereby, is in violation of the Trust Agreement or of any law, rule or regulation of the State of Delaware applicable to the Trust.
     (x) Under § 3805(b) of the Trust Act, no creditor of any Certificateholder shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the property of the Trust except in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
     (xi) Under the Trust Act, the Trust is a separate legal entity and, assuming that the Sale and Servicing Agreement conveys good title to the Trust property to the Trust as a true sale and not as a security arrangement, the Trust rather than the Certificateholders will hold whatever title to the Trust property as may be conveyed to it from time to time pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, except to the extent that the Trust has
         
    18   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

taken action to dispose of or otherwise transfer or encumber any part of the Trust property.
     (xii) Under § 3805(c) of the Trust Act, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement, a Certificateholder (including the Seller in its capacity as depositor) has no interest in specific Trust property.
     (xiii) The Trust will not be subject to tax by the State of Delaware, and purchasers not otherwise subject to taxation in Delaware will not be subject to taxation in Delaware solely because of the purchase or ownership of the Notes.
     (xiv) (A) The financing statement on form UCC-1, naming the Seller as debtor and the Trust as secured party, to be filed with the Secretary of State (Uniform Commercial Code Section) (the “Division”) is in an appropriate form for filing in the State of Delaware. (B) Insofar as Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware (the “Delaware UCC”) is applicable (without regard to conflict of laws principles), upon the filing of such financing statement with the Division, the Trust will have a perfected security interest in the Seller’s rights in that portion of the Receivables that may be perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement with the Division (the “Filing Collateral”) and the proceeds thereof (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC). (C) The certified copy of the Certificate of Request (the “Search Report”) obtained from the Division, reflecting the results of a Uniform Commercial Code search in the office of the Secretary of State against the Seller, listing all currently effective financing statements filed against the Seller as of the date and time set forth therein (the “Effective Time”), sets forth the proper filing office and the proper debtor necessary to identify those Persons who under the Delaware UCC have on file financing statements against the Seller covering the Filing Collateral, as of the Effective Time. The Search Report identifies each secured party who has filed with the Division a financing statement naming the Seller as debtor prior to the Effective Time.
     (xv) (A) The financing statement on form UCC-1, naming the Trust as debtor and the Indenture Trustee, as secured party, to be filed with the Division is in an appropriate form for filing in the State of Delaware.

therein), whichever is most recent, if the Seller or the Servicer has previously furnished copies thereof to such Underwriter within a reasonable time period.
     (b) Each Underwriter shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and the Servicer against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Seller or the Servicer may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Seller or the Servicer by such Underwriter through the Representative specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Seller or the Servicer in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. The Seller and the Servicer acknowledge and agree that the only such information furnished to the Seller or the Servicer by any Underwriter through the Representative consists of the following: the statements in the second and fourth paragraphs (concerning initial offering prices, concessions and reallowances) and in the seventh and eighth paragraphs (concerning stabilizing and other activities) under the heading “Underwriting” in the Prospectus Supplement.
     (c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under such preceding paragraphs, and with respect to such preceding paragraphs, any such omission shall not relieve it from any liability except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Party and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (who may be counsel to the Indemnifying Party) and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and after acceptance of counsel by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to the Indemnified Party) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, (iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based upon
         
    22   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

advice of counsel to the Indemnified Party) between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case the Indemnifying Party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party) or (iv) the Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of such proceeding but has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, with respect to any action brought against any Indemnified Party, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties, and all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed within a reasonable period of time as they are incurred. Any separate firm appointed for the Underwriters and any Control Person in accordance with this subsection (c) shall be designated in writing by the Representative, and any such separate firm appointed for the Seller or the Servicer, its respective directors, officers who sign the Registration Statement and Control Persons in accordance with this subsection (c) shall be designated in writing by the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, with respect to an action of which the Indemnifying Party was notified and had the opportunity to participate in (whether or not it chose to so participate), the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Party shall have requested an Indemnifying Party to reimburse the Indemnified Party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the fourth sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such Indemnifying Party of the aforesaid request, and during such 60 day period the Indemnifying Party has not responded thereto, and (ii) such Indemnifying Party shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
     (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Seller and the Servicer on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Notes. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Seller and the Servicer on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Seller and the Servicer on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion that the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Seller and the Servicer bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference
         
    23   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Seller or the Servicer or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Seller, the Servicer and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.
     (e) The obligations of the Seller and the Servicer under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Seller or the Servicer may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Seller or the Servicer, to each officer of the Seller or Servicer who has signed the Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Seller or the Servicer within the meaning of the Act.
     8. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Seller, the Servicer or their respective officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation or statement as to the results thereof made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Seller or the Servicer or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any Control Person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Notes. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 or if for any reason the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Seller shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5, and the respective obligations of the Seller and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9, the Seller will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Notes.
     9. Failure to Purchase the Notes. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default on their obligations to purchase Notes hereunder and the aggregate principal amount of Notes that such
         
    24   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of such Notes, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Seller for the purchase of such Notes by other persons, including the nondefaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the nondefaulting Underwriter or Underwriters shall be obligated, in proportion to their commitments hereunder, to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate principal amount of Notes with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Notes, as applicable, and arrangements satisfactory to the nondefaulting Underwriter or Underwriters and the Seller for the purchase of such Notes by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Seller, except as provided in Section 8.
     As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters from liability for its default.
     10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Representative or the Underwriters will be mailed, delivered or sent by facsimile transmission and confirmed to Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: Xxx Xxxxxxx (facsimile number (000) 000-0000); and if sent to the Seller, will be mailed, delivered or sent by facsimile transmission and confirmed to it at Nissan Auto Receivables Corporation II, 000 Xxxx 000xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000-00x0, attention of the Treasurer (facsimile number (000) 000-0000).
     11. No Bankruptcy Petition. Each Underwriter agrees that, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of all securities issued by the Seller or by a trust for which the Seller was the depositor which securities were rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, the Seller any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.
     12. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters and the Seller and their respective successors and the officers and directors and Control Persons referred to in Section 7, and no other person will have any right or obligations hereunder.
     13. Representation of Underwriters. The Representative will act for the several Underwriters in connection with the transactions described in this Agreement, and any action taken by the Representative under this Agreement will be binding upon all the Underwriters.
     14. Representation and Warranties of Underwriters. With respect to any offers or sales of the Notes outside the United States (and solely with respect to any such offers and sales) each Underwriter severally and not jointly makes the following representations and warranties:
         
    25   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

     (a) Each Underwriter represents and agrees that it will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers or sells the Notes or possesses or distributes the Prospectus or any other offering material and will obtain any consent, approval or permission required by it for the purchase, offer or sale by it of Notes under the laws and regulations in force in any jurisdiction to which it is subject or in which it makes such purchases, offers or sales and neither the Seller or the Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor;
     (b) No action has been or will be taken by such Underwriter that would permit public offering of the Notes or possession or distribution of any offering material in relation to the Notes in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required unless the Seller or the Servicer has agreed to such actions and such actions have been taken;
     (c) Each Underwriter represents and agrees that it will not offer, sell or deliver any of the Notes or distribute any such offering material in or from any jurisdiction except under circumstances that will result in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and that will not impose any obligation on the Seller or the Servicer or the Underwriters;
     (d) Such Underwriter acknowledges that it is not authorized to give any information or make any representation in relation to the Notes other than (i) oral communications that are consistent with the Prospectus and would not cause the Trust, the Seller or the Servicer to incur liability, (ii) those contained or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus for the Notes and (iii) such additional information, if any, as the Seller or the Servicer shall, in writing, provide to and authorize such Underwriter so to use and distribute to actual and potential purchasers of the Notes;
     (e) Each Underwriter represents and agrees that it has not offered or sold and will not offer or sell, prior to the date six months after their date of issuance, any of the Notes to person in the United Kingdom, except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances that have not resulted in and will not result in an offer to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995 (as amended);
     (f) Each Underwriter has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (“FSMA”) with respect to anything done by such Underwriter in relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; and
     (g) Each Underwriter will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any securities in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Seller.
     15. Acknowledgment. Each of the Seller and the Servicer hereby acknowledges that pursuant to this Agreement (a) the Underwriters are acting as principals and not as agents or fiduciaries of the Seller or the Servicer and (b) the engagement by the Seller and the Servicer of the Underwriters is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, each
         
    26   (Nissan 2005-C Underwriting Agreement)

 

 

of the Seller and the Servicer agrees that it is solely responsible for independently making its own judgments with respect to the matters covered by this Agreement (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Seller or the Servicer on other matters).
     16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of law provisions (other than Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York).
     17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by each of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, and by each of the parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
