7

the Assignees without any further actions by any party hereto as of the date of the relevant Assignment Deed.

Each Assignee will benefit from any Assignment in the proportion which its Commitments bear to the Total Commitments as at the date of such Assignment.

This Master Agreement shall apply automatically to all Assignment Deeds delivered by the Assignor to the Security Agent, on each date of Assignment, provided that said Assignment Deeds make specific reference to this Master Agreement.

3.2 Date of Assignment

(a) So long as and to the extent that no Advance is made to the Assignor under the Senior Bridge Facilities Agreement, the Assignor shall not be obligated to assign any of its Eligible Receivables or Vehicle Guarantee Receivables by way of security hereunder.

(b) On the date of the first Advance made available to the Assignor and thereafter, to the extent that any amount remains outstanding under any Advance made available to the Assignor, on the last Business Day of each month, the Assignor shall assign to the Assignees, represented by the Security Agent, by way of security, all its Eligible Receivables (with the exception of VAT Receivables) and its Vehicle Guarantee Receivables (whether present or future) originated by it during the preceding calendar month (and, in particular, those Eligible Receivables arising from any new Vehicle Dealer Buy-Back Agreements and Vehicle Manufacturer Buy-Back Agreements entered into by the Assignor and/or any new insurance policies subscribed by the Assignor during the relevant calendar month) and to which it then holds title.

(c) On the date of the first Advance made available to the Assignor and thereafter, to the extent that any amount remains outstanding under any Advance made available to the Assignor, on the Business Day following each day upon which the Assignor shall have filed a request of refund of its VAT credit with the competent tax authority and to the extent any amount remains outstanding under any Advance made available to the Assignor, the Assignor shall assign to the Assignees, represented by the Security Agent, its VAT Receivables.

3.3 Method of Assignment

(a) Each Assignment made or to be made pursuant to this Master Agreement shall be made by the Assignor to the Assignees, represented by the Security Agent, by remittance of an Assignment Deed to the Security Agent on each date of Assignment in accordance with Clause 3.2.

(c) Each Assignment Deed shall be delivered by the Assignor to the Security Agent who shall hold such Assignment Deed on behalf of the Assignees and shall ascertain the date thereof. Each Assignee hereby appoints the Security Agent, which hereby accepts, to (i) be the addressee of each Assignment Deed remitted by the Assignor pursuant to this Master Agreement, (ii) ascertain the date of each Assignment Deed as the date on which the Assignment Deed is remitted by the Assignor, and (iii) hold each such Assignment Deed on its behalf.

4. EFFECTS OF EACH ASSIGNMENT

9

(b) In accordance with Article L. 313-24 of the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code monétaire et financier), it is expressly agreed between the Assignees and the Assignor that the latter shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of its Assigned Receivables by its Assigned Debtors.

5. COLLECTION BY THE ASSIGNOR

Until and unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unremedied and unwaived, the Assignor is hereby appointed by each Assignee, and shall be entitled to:

(i) collect on its current account(s) and use all payments made from time to time by its Assigned Debtors under the Assigned Receivables; and

(ii) at its own cost, file any claim and take any action or proceedings it thinks fit or advisable against any Assigned Debtor to recover any amount owed to it in case of default by any Assigned Debtor to pay any amount payable by such Assigned Debtor under any underlying contract or agreement.

6. COLLECTION BY THE SECURITY AGENT

(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default remains unremedied or unwaived, all the discretions, powers and authorizations granted to the Assignor pursuant to Clause 5 shall cease to have effect immediately.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default remains unremedied or unwaived, the Assignor undertakes to the extent not credited on a collection account otherwise pledged in favour of the Assignees (i) to transfer to the Security Agent all cash, moneys, checks, bills and other instruments of payment received from its Assigned Debtors in payment of its Assigned Receivables together with all information relating thereto as the Security Agent may reasonably require, and (ii) to direct to the Security Agent, on the account as specified by the Security Agent to the Assignor for the purposes of this Clause, all further payments to be made by its Assigned Debtors under its Assigned Receivables.

7. NOTICE OF ASSIGNMENT - ACCEPTANCE

At any time following the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, the Security Agent shall be entitled to give notice of any Assignment made pursuant to this Master Agreement to any Assigned Debtor in accordance with the provisions of Article L.313-28 of the French Monetary and Financial Code. Each such notice shall take the form of a Notice of Assignment. In any such case, any relevant Assigned Debtor shall then pay the sums payable by it under each Assigned

10

Receivable directly to the Security Agent on behalf and for the account of the Assignees. Any payment made by any Assigned Debtor to the Assignor as from the date of receipt of a Notice of Assignment will not discharge such Assigned Debtor of its obligations under this Clause 8.1.

Each such request shall take the form of a Letter of Acceptance. Upon countersigning such letter, the Assigned Debtor shall cease to be entitled to raise any defenses based on the underlying contracts entered into between such Assigned Debtor and the Assignor.

8. PRESERVATION OF SECURITY

8.1 Continuing security

The security (cession de créances professionnelles à titre de garantie) constituted by each Assignment Deed shall extend to the ultimate balance of the Secured Liabilities, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in part.

8.2 Additional security

Each Assignment is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other security now or hereafter held by the Assignees in respect of the Secured Liabilities.

8.3 Security transfer

In the event of any assignment, transfer, novation or disposal of a part or all of its rights and obligations by any Assignee under the Senior Bridge Facilities Agreement to which such Assignee is a party, such Assignee hereby expressly maintains, which the Assignor accepts, all its rights and privileges hereunder for the benefit of its successor, in accordance with the terms of Article 1278 of the (French) Civil Code (Code Civil) so that each Assignment will secure the Secured Liabilities to the rateable benefit of such successor, without further formalities.
