(b) The Backup Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Servicer, the Issuing Entity and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Servicer or the Issuing Entity through the Backup Servicer’s breach of this Agreement, the negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Backup Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

(c) The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Backup Servicer and its respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Backup Servicer through the

SCHEDULE I

DESCRIPTION OF VERIFICATION AND CONFIRMATION DUTIES
(BACKUP SERVICING)

The Backup Servicer shall provide the following services related to backup servicing in connection with the Contracts.

(i) The Backup Servicer will work with the Servicer’s personnel to obtain the necessary systems and data information from the servicing systems in use by the Servicer (the “Initial Data File Data Layouts and Definitions” as set forth in Appendix A). Using this information, the Backup Servicer will create a set of conversion routines and database mapping programs, as necessary, that will enable the Backup Servicer to receive data from the Servicer on a monthly basis (at the time and in the manner specified in Section 2.1(a) of the Backup Servicing Agreement) and to ensure that the data is readable.

(ii) On a monthly basis, commencing with the Initial Collection Period, the Backup Servicer shall (x) verify receipt of the Monthly Data Files, as set forth in Appendix B, required to be delivered by the Servicer (at the time and in the manner specified in Section 2.1(a) of the Backup Servicing Agreement) and (y) verify that the records and data contained in the monthly data files are in a readable format.

(iii) On the 10th Business Day after receipt of the Monthly Data Files and the Servicer’s Certificate from the Servicer, the Backup Servicer shall notify the Servicer that (i) the Backup Servicer has reviewed the Monthly Data Files for the related Collection Period, (ii) a review of the information concerning delinquency aging, defaults and ending Contract Value reflected on the Servicer’s Certificate has been made and (iii) to the best of SST’s knowledge using its best reasonable efforts, the data in such Monthly Data Files ties to such items on the Servicer’s Certificate, resulting in no discrepancies between them. If the preceding statement cannot be made in the affirmative, SST shall notify the Servicer of the nature of any and all discrepancies. The Backup Servicer and the Servicer shall attempt to reconcile all discrepancies with respect to such Servicer’s Certificate. The effect, if any, of such reconciliation shall be reflected in the next succeeding Servicer’s Certificate.
