(d) If a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have actual knowledge, or the Indenture Trustee shall receive written notice from the Majority Noteholders, that an Early Amortization Event has occurred, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly issue written notice of such Early Amortization Event to the Servicer (who shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to the Rating Agencies), the Backup Servicer, the Trust Collateral Agent, and the Noteholders, which notice shall advise them of the nature of the Early Amortization Event, to the extent actually known by the Indenture Trustee, and the date of the occurrence thereof.

SECTION 2.03. Title to Trust Property.
(a) Immediately upon the conveyance to the Trust by the Seller of any item of property pursuant to Section 2.01 or 2.02, all right, title and interest of the Seller in and to such item of property shall terminate, and all such right, title and interest shall vest in the Trust, in accordance with the Trust Agreement and Sections 3802 and 3805 of the Statutory Trust Act (as defined in the Trust Agreement).
(b) Immediately upon the vesting of the Trust Property in the Trust, the Trust shall have the sole right to pledge or otherwise encumber such Trust Property but only in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents.

(c) It is the intention of the Seller that the conveyance of the Seller Property by the Seller to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement be construed as an absolute sale and conveyance of all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to such Seller Property to the Trust and that the Seller relinquishes control over, and all rights, title and interest (legal or equitable) in, any Seller Property immediately upon the conveyance of each such Seller Property under this Agreement. Further, it is not the intention of the Seller and the Trust that such conveyance be
35

deemed a grant of a security interest in the Seller Property by the Seller to the Trust in the nature of a consensual lien securing an obligation.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and to the extent that the conveyance of any of the Seller Property is for any purpose characterized as a collateral transfer for security or the transaction is characterized as a financing transaction, then it is intended that:
(i) This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC;
(ii) The conveyances provided for in Section 2.01 and Section 2.02 shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller, and the Seller hereby grants, to the Trust a first priority, perfected security interest in all of its right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to all assets and personal property of the Seller, including but not limited to, all of the Seller’s accounts, chattel paper, goods, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles, instruments, investment property, letter of credit rights, money and supporting obligations and all proceeds of the foregoing (as each such term is defined in the UCC), to secure the obligation of the Seller to pay to the Trust an amount equal to the Issuer Secured Obligations;
(iii) The possession and/or control by the Trust, or the Servicer as the Trust’s agent, of the Dealer Agreements, Purchase Agreements, Loans and Contract Files and any other property which constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper, shall be deemed to be “possession and/or control by the secured party” or possession and/or control by the purchaser or a person designated by such purchaser, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC; and
(iv) Notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trust for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under the UCC.
(e) At such time as there are no Notes outstanding and all sums due to (i) the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Indenture, (ii) the Trust Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 hereof, and (iii) the Backup Servicer hereunder and under the Backup Servicing Agreement, have been paid, the Trust Collateral Agent shall, upon instructions from the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Indenture, release any remaining portion of the Trust Property from the lien of the Indenture for distribution in accordance with the Trust Agreement.
ARTICLE III
THE LOANS AND THE CONTRACTS
SECTION 3.01. Representations and Warranties of Seller with respect to the Seller Property.
36

The Seller makes the following representations and warranties as to the Dealer Agreements and Purchase Agreements, Loans and the Contracts on which each of the Trust Collateral Agent and the Backup Servicer relies in connection with performance of its obligations hereunder. Such representations and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement on the Closing Date and each Distribution Date on which the Trust purchases Seller Property, as the case may be, and only with respect to the Seller Property conveyed to the Trust at the time given or made (unless otherwise specified) but shall survive the sale, transfer, and assignment of the Seller Property to the Trust and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:
(i) Eligibility of Dealer Agreements. Each Dealer Agreement classified as an “Eligible Dealer Agreement” (or included in any aggregation of balances of “Eligible Dealer Agreements”) by the Seller or the Servicer in any document or report delivered hereunder satisfied the requirements contained in the definition of Eligible Dealer Agreement on the date each related Dealer Loan was conveyed or pledged to the Trust.
(ii) Eligibility of Loans. Each Loan classified as an “Eligible Loan” (or included in any aggregation of balances of “Eligible Loans”) by the Seller or the Servicer in any document or report delivered hereunder satisfied the requirements contained in the definition of Eligible Loan on the date each such Loan was conveyed or pledged to the Trust.
(iii) Eligibility of Contracts. Each Contract classified as an “Eligible Contract” (or included in any aggregation of balances of “Eligible Contracts”) by the Seller or the Servicer in any document or report delivered hereunder satisfied the requirements contained in the definition of Eligible Contract on the date each such Contract was conveyed or pledged to the Trust.
(iv) Accuracy of Information. All information with respect to the Loans, the Dealer Agreements, the Purchase Agreements, the Contracts and other Seller Property provided to the Trust Collateral Agent by the Seller or the Servicer was true and correct in all material respects as of the date such information was provided to the Trust Collateral Agent.
(v) No Liens. Each Loan and the other Seller Property has been pledged to the Trust Collateral Agent free and clear of any Lien of any Person, and in compliance, in all material respects, with all Applicable Laws.
(vi) No Consents. With respect to each Loan and the other Seller Property, all material consents, licenses, approvals or authorizations of or registrations or declarations with any Governmental Authority required to be obtained, effected or given by the Seller, in connection with the pledge of such Dealer Agreement, Purchase Agreement, Loan, Contract or other Collateral to the Trust Collateral Agent have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full force and effect.

(viii) Adverse Selection. No selection procedure believed by the Seller to be materially adverse to the interests of the Noteholders has been or will be used in selecting the Dealer Agreements, Purchase Agreements, Loans or Contracts; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, during the Revolving Period, the Seller in its sole discretion may elect to sell Dealer Loans secured by either Open Pools or Closed Pools.

Upon the filing of UCC-1 financing statements naming the Indenture Trustee and Trust Collateral Agent as assignee secured party and the Seller as debtor, or upon the Trust Collateral Agent obtaining possession or control, in the case of that portion of the Seller Property which constitutes tangible or electronic chattel paper or instruments, the Trust Collateral Agent, as agent for the secured parties under the Indenture, shall have a first priority perfected security interest in the Seller Property. All filings (including such UCC filings) as are necessary in any jurisdiction to perfect the interest of the Indenture Trustee and Trust Collateral Agent, as agent for the Trust, in the Seller Property have been made.
(xi) Representations and Warranties in Sale and Contribution Agreement. The representations and warranties made by the Originator to the Seller in the Sale and Contribution Agreement are hereby remade by the Seller on each date to which they speak in the Sale and Contribution Agreement as if such representations and warranties were set forth herein. For purposes of this Section 3.01(xi), such representations and warranties are incorporated herein by reference as if made by the Seller to the Trust Collateral Agent under the terms hereof mutatis mutandis.
(xii) Survival. The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.01 shall survive the Seller’s sale and assignment of the Seller Property to the Trust and the termination of the rights and obligations of the Servicer.

(c) The sole remedy of the Trust Collateral Agent, the Trust, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders with respect to a breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof which materially and adversely affects either a Contract or a Loan and the interests of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders in the Contracts, Purchased Loans or Dealer Loans shall be to require the Seller to make payments in respect of the related Loans pursuant to this Section or to enforce any obligation of Credit Acceptance to repurchase such
39

Loans pursuant to the Sale and Contribution Agreement, and to require the Seller to make payments in respect of the related Contracts pursuant to this Section or to enforce the obligation of Credit Acceptance to make such payments pursuant to the Sale and Contribution Agreement.

The party providing such waiver shall give notice thereof to the Issuer and the Administrator.
(e) Any Contract which is subject to a payment in accordance with Section 3.02(b), Section 3.03(d) or Section 4.07 of this Agreement shall be an Ineligible Contract. Any Loan which is subject to a payment in accordance with Section 3.02(b), Section 3.03(d) or Section 4.07 of this Agreement shall be an Ineligible Loan. Each Dealer Loan, Purchased Loan or Contract which is subject to a payment in accordance with Section 3.02(b), Section 3.03(d) or Section 4.07 of this Agreement, shall, upon payment in full of the related Purchase Amount, be released from the lien created pursuant to the Indenture and shall no longer constitute Trust Property.

In no event shall the Trust Collateral Agent or the successor Servicer be required to expend funds in connection with this Section 3.03(h).
(iii) The Servicer shall provide to the Trust Collateral Agent access to the Dealer Agreements, the Purchase Agreements, Contract Files and other Records and all other documentation regarding the Dealer Agreements, Purchase Agreements, Contracts and the Loans and the related Financed Vehicles in such cases where the Trust Collateral Agent is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights or interests of the Trust, or by applicable statutes or regulations to review such documentation, such access being afforded without charge.

ARTICLE IV
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF LOANS AND CONTRACTS
SECTION 4.01. Appointment; Duties of Servicer.
(a) Servicing; Termination. The Seller and the Trust hereby appoint Credit Acceptance as Servicer hereunder and Credit Acceptance hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to manage, collect and administer each of the Loans as Servicer. Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Default, the Indenture Trustee shall have the rights set forth in Section 8.01 hereof.
(b) Standard of Care; Types of Duties. The Servicer shall manage, service, administer, and make collections on the Loans and the Contracts with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and attention that the servicers in the retail automobile financing industry exercise with respect to all comparable receivables that they service for themselves or others and the same degree of care that the Servicer exercises with respect to any comparable loan or automobile contracts that it holds for its own account. The Servicer’s duties shall include collection and posting of all payments, responding to inquiries of Dealers and of Obligors on such Contracts, investigating delinquencies, sending payment statements or coupons to Dealers and Obligors, reporting tax information to Dealers and Obligors, accounting for collections, and furnishing monthly and annual statements to the Trust Collateral Agent with respect to distributions. The Servicer shall follow prudent standards, policies, and procedures in performing its duties as Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer is hereby granted a limited power of attorney by the Trust Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Trust, the Noteholders, or the Trust Collateral Agent or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to such Loans and Contracts or to the Financed Vehicles securing such Contracts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Loan or a Contract, the Trust Collateral Agent (in the case of a Loan other than a Repurchased Loan) shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned, solely for the purpose of collection, such Loan or Contract to the Servicer. The Servicer shall not make the Seller, the Trust, the Trust Collateral Agent or the Indenture Trustee a party to any such legal proceeding without such party’s written consent. If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Loan or a Contract on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Loan or Contract, the Trust Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have automatically assigned such Loan or Contract to the Servicer, solely for the purpose of collection. The Trust Collateral Agent shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents prepared by the Servicer reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer, at its expense, shall obtain on behalf of the Trust all licenses, if any, required by the laws of any jurisdiction to be held by the Trust in connection with ownership of the Loans and the Purchased Loan Contracts and its security interest in the Dealer Loan Contracts, and shall make all filings and pay all fees as may be required in connection therewith during the term hereof. The Seller shall assist the Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, in connection with any reports related to distributions.
44

(c) Duties with Respect to the Basic Documents. The Seller and the Trust hereby appoint Credit Acceptance as Administrator of the Trust, and Credit Acceptance hereby accepts such appointment, and agrees to perform all its duties as Administrator and, unless otherwise specified, the administrative duties of the Issuer under the Basic Documents. In addition, Credit Acceptance shall consult with the Indenture Trustee, as Credit Acceptance deems appropriate regarding the duties of the Issuer under the Basic Documents. Credit Acceptance shall monitor the performance of the Trust and shall advise the Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee, when action is necessary to comply with the Trust’s duties under the Basic Documents. The Seller (to the extent the Servicer or the Administrator does not) shall execute and deliver all Issuer Orders and Officer’s Certificates required to be delivered by the Trust under the Indenture or any other Basic Document. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall not have an obligation to perform such duties set forth in this Section 4.01(c).
(d) Duties with Respect to the Trust.
(i) In addition to the duties of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents, Credit Acceptance, as Administrator, shall perform such calculations, shall execute and deliver all Issuer Orders and Officer’s Certificates required of the Issuer under the Basic Documents, and shall prepare for execution by the Trust or the Owner Trustee or shall cause the preparation by other appropriate Persons of all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates, opinions, financial statements and accounting books and records as it shall be the duty of the Trust or the Owner Trustee to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or under state and federal tax and securities laws or any state regulatory filings required to be made by the Trust and shall take all appropriate action that it is the duty of the Trust to take pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents, including pursuant to Section 5.1 (with respect to the preparation and filing of tax returns) and Section 11.11 of the Trust Agreement.
(ii) In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its other obligations under this Agreement, the Servicer may enter into transactions with or otherwise deal with any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that such delegation shall not relieve the Servicer of its obligations that the terms of any such transaction or dealings shall be in accordance with any directions received from the Trust and shall be, in the Servicer’s opinion, no less favorable to the Trust in any material respect.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, the Seller shall assist the Backup Servicer in performing the duties of the Administrator set forth in this Section 4.01(d).
(e) Records. The Servicer shall maintain appropriate books of account and records relating to its duties performed under Section 4.01(c) and (d) hereof, which books of account and records shall be accessible for inspection and copy by the Issuer, the Board of Trustees, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Trust Collateral Agent at any time during normal business hours at its offices and in a reasonable manner.
45

(f) Additional Information to be Furnished to the Trust. The Servicer shall furnish to the Issuer, the Board of Trustees, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent and the Backup Servicer from time to time such additional information regarding the Trust or the Basic Documents as the Issuer, the Board of Trustees, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent or the Backup Servicer shall reasonably request.
(g) Servicer as Independent Contractor. All services, duties and responsibilities of the Servicer under this Agreement shall be performed and carried out by the Servicer as an independent contractor for the benefit of the Trust, and none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to make, authorize or appoint the Servicer as agent or representative of the Seller, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Trust or any Noteholder except as provided in Section 3.03 hereof.
SECTION 4.02. Collection and Application of Payments on the Loans and Contracts; Extensions and Amendments.

In performing its duties as Servicer, the Servicer shall use the same degree of care and attention it employs with respect to similar contracts and loans which it services for itself or others. Each of the Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent hereby appoints as its agent the Servicer, from time to time designated pursuant to the terms hereof, to enforce its respective rights and interests in and under the Trust Property. The Servicer shall hold in trust for the Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent all Records and all Collections (other than Dealer Collections) and any other amounts it receives in respect of the Trust Property. In the event that a successor Servicer is appointed, the outgoing Servicer shall deliver to the successor Servicer and the successor Servicer shall hold in trust for the Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent all records which evidence or relate to all or any part of the Trust Property.
As part of its normal servicing and collection efforts, the Servicer may modify the terms of any Contract, including, without limitation, effecting extensions, modified payment plans, granting refunds, rebates or adjustments or making other changes as required by Applicable Law.
SECTION 4.03. Realization Upon Contracts.
On behalf of the Trust and the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall use reasonable efforts, in material accordance with the Collection Guidelines and prudent servicing procedures, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of the Financed Vehicle securing any Contract as to which the Servicer shall have determined eventual payment in full is unlikely, as soon as practicable after the Servicer makes such determination. The Servicer may also sell or otherwise assign defaulted
46

contracts for collection in an effort to realize upon such defaulted contracts. The Servicer shall follow such prudent practices and procedures as would be deemed prudent in the servicing of comparable receivables, consistent with the standard of care required by Section 4.01(b) which may include reasonable efforts to sell the Financed Vehicle at public or private sale.

The Servicer shall take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Contract in the related Financed Vehicle, including taking such steps as are reasonably necessary to maintain the Originator as noted lienholder on each Certificate of Title relating to a Financed Vehicle in all states where such notation is a means of perfection under Applicable Law. The Servicer shall take such reasonable steps as are necessary to reperfect such security interest on behalf of the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason. In the event that the assignment of a Contract to the Indenture Trustee is insufficient without a notation on related Financed Vehicle’s Certificate of Title, or without fulfilling any additional administrative requirements under the laws of the state in which the Financed Vehicle is located, to perfect a security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the Indenture Trustee, the parties hereto agree that the Originator’s designation as the secured party on the Certificate of Title is, with respect to each secured party, as applicable, in its capacity as agent of the Indenture Trustee.

Such duties generally relate to following the provisions herein and therein which would permit the Backup Servicer to assume some or all of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder (as modified or limited herein or in the Backup Servicing Agreement) with reasonable dispatch, following written notice.
The Backup Servicer, prior to assuming any of the Servicer’s duties hereunder, may not resign hereunder unless it arranges for a successor Backup Servicer reasonably acceptable to the Servicer and the Seller, with not less than thirty (30) days’ notice delivered to the Servicer and the Seller. The Backup Servicer shall have no obligations or duties under any agreement to which it is not a party, including but not limited to the various agreements named herein.
(b) The Backup Servicer shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur liability (financial or otherwise) in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the repayment of such funds or written indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it in writing prior to the expenditure or risk of such funds or incurrence of financial liability. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Backup Servicer, in its capacity as such, and not in its capacity as successor Servicer, shall not be liable for any obligation of the Servicer contained in this Agreement, and the parties shall look only to the Servicer to perform such obligations.
(c) The Servicer shall have no liability, direct or indirect, to any party, for the acts or omissions of the Backup Servicer, irrespective of when such acts or omissions may occur whenever such acts or omissions occur, except as set forth in Section 4.09(f). The successor Servicer shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any predecessor Servicer.

SECTION 5.01. Establishment of Accounts of the Trust.
(a) (i) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Trust Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, shall establish and maintain in its own name two Eligible Accounts (respectively, the “Collection Account” and the “Principal Collection Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Collection Account and the Principal Collection Account shall initially be established with the Trust Collateral Agent.
(ii) The Trust Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, shall establish and maintain in its own name an Eligible Account (the “Note Distribution Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Note Distribution Account shall initially be established with the Trust Collateral Agent.
(iii) The Trust Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in its own name an Eligible Account (the “Certificate Distribution Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Certificate Distribution Account shall initially be established with the Trust Collateral Agent.
(iv) The Trust Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Noteholders, shall establish and maintain in its own name an Eligible Account (the “Reserve Account”) bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Reserve Account shall initially be established with the Trust Collateral Agent.
(b) Funds on deposit in the Collection Account, the Principal Collection Account and the Reserve Account shall each be invested by the Trust Collateral Agent (or any custodian with respect to funds on deposit in any such account) in Eligible Investments selected in writing by the Servicer (pursuant to standing instructions or otherwise), bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next Distribution Date; provided, however, it is understood and agreed that the Trust Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any loss arising from such investment in Eligible Investments made at the written direction of the Servicer in conformity with this Agreement unless the Eligible Investment was a direct obligation of the Trust Collateral Agent in its commercial capacity. All such Eligible Investments shall be held by or on behalf of the Trust Collateral Agent for the benefit
60

of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders. Funds deposited in the Collection Account on the day immediately preceding a Distribution Date and funds arising from the maturity of any Eligible Investments on such preceding day are not required to be invested overnight. On each Distribution Date, all interest and investment income (net of investment losses and expenses) on funds on deposit in the Collection Account, as of the end of the Collection Period shall be included in Available Funds; and all interest and other investment income (net of investment losses and expenses) on funds on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be deposited into the Reserve Account.

(c) If (i) the Servicer shall have failed to give investment directions for any funds on deposit in the Collection Account, the Principal Collection Account or the Reserve Account to the Trust Collateral Agent by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Issuer and Trust Collateral Agent) on any Business Day pursuant to standing instructions or otherwise, such funds shall remain uninvested; or (ii) an Indenture Default or Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Notes but the Notes shall not have been declared due and payable, or, if such Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Indenture Event of Default, but amounts collected or receivable from the Trust Property are being applied as if there had not been such a declaration; then the Trust Collateral Agent shall, to the fullest extent practicable, continue to invest and reinvest funds in the Collection Account, the Principal Collection Account or the Reserve Account, as the case may be, in Eligible Investments pursuant to the last written investment direction of the Servicer.
(d) (i) Subject to the grant of the security interest pursuant to the Indenture in favor of the Indenture Trustee, the Trust shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Trust Accounts (other than Dealer Collections) and in all proceeds thereof and all such funds, investments, proceeds and income shall be part of the Trust Property. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trust Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Trust Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Noteholders.
(ii) With respect to any Eligible Investments held from time to time in any Trust Account, the Trust Collateral Agent agrees that:
(A) any Eligible Investment that is held in deposit accounts shall be, except as otherwise provided herein, subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Trust Collateral Agent, and the Trust Collateral Agent shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto;
(B) any Eligible Investment that constitutes Physical Property shall be delivered to the Trust Collateral Agent in accordance with paragraph (a) of the definition of “Delivery” and shall be held, pending maturity or disposition, solely by the Trust Collateral Agent or a securities intermediary (as such term is defined in Section 8-102(a)(14) of the UCC) acting solely for the Trust Collateral Agent;
61

(C) any Eligible Investment that is a book-entry security held through the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Federal book-entry regulations shall be delivered in accordance with paragraph (b) of the definition of “Delivery” and shall be maintained by the Trust Collateral Agent, pending maturity or disposition, through continued book-entry registration of such Eligible Investment as described in such paragraph;
(D) any Eligible Investment that is an “uncertificated security” under Article 8 of the UCC and that is not governed by clause (C) above shall be delivered to the Trust Collateral Agent in accordance with paragraph (c) of the definition of “Delivery” and shall be maintained by the Trust Collateral Agent, pending maturity or disposition, through continued registration of the Trust Collateral Agent’s (or its nominee’s) ownership of such security; and
(E) not less than eight (8) days prior to each Distribution Date, the Trust Collateral Agent shall give notice to each institution that holds Eligible Investments in money market deposit accounts that on such Distribution Date the Trust Collateral Agent may be withdrawing all funds from the applicable Trust Account.
(e) The Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Trust Collateral Agent, the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer, in the case of the Trust Collateral Agent or the Issuer, with the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, to instruct the Trust Collateral Agent to make withdrawals and payments from the Trust Accounts for the purpose of permitting the Servicer and the Trust Collateral Agent to carry out their respective duties hereunder.
(f) If ratings of the unsecured and uncollateralized long-term debt obligations of the Trust Collateral Agent or its parent are lower than BBB by S&P or lower than investment grade by Moody’s, then the Trust Collateral Agent shall notify the Servicer within five (5) Business Days of the rating downgrade and the Servicer shall, with the Trust Collateral Agent’s assistance as necessary, cause the Trust Accounts to be moved within five (5) Business Days of receiving such notification to another institution where such Trust Accounts will be Eligible Accounts.
(g) The Servicer acknowledges that upon its written request and at no additional cost, it has the right to receive notification after the completion of each purchase and sale of permitted investments or the Trust Collateral Agent’s receipt of a broker’s confirmation. The Servicer agrees that such notifications shall not be provided by the Trust Collateral Agent hereunder, and the Trust Collateral Agent shall make available, upon request and in lieu of notifications, periodic account statements that reflect such investment activity. No statement need be made available for any fund/account if no activity has occurred in such fund/account during such period.
SECTION 5.02. Collections; Allocation.
The Servicer shall remit to the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt all Collections collected during each Collection Period. On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account the foregoing amounts received with respect to the Loans and Contracts since the initial Cut-off Date.
62

The Servicer shall determine each month the amount of Collections received during each Collection Period which constitutes Dealer Collections and shall so notify the Trust Collateral Agent in writing (which can be included in the applicable Servicer’s Certificate). Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Trust Collateral Agent, at the written direction of the Servicer, shall distribute on each Distribution Date: (i) to the Issuer an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Dealer Collections received during or with respect to the prior Collection Period; and (ii) to the Backup Servicer, if it has become successor Servicer, an amount equal to Repossession Expenses related to the prior Collection Period prior to the distribution of Available Funds pursuant to Section 5.08(a) hereof. Upon receipt, the Issuer shall remit all Dealer Collections to Credit Acceptance. In the event the Backup Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, the Seller shall assist the Backup Servicer in the performance of its obligations under this Section 5.02.
SECTION 5.03. Certain Reimbursements to the Servicer.
The Servicer will be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to a Collection Period for amounts previously deposited in the Collection Account but later determined by the Servicer to have resulted from mistaken deposits or postings or checks returned for insufficient funds. The amount to be reimbursed hereunder shall be paid to the Servicer on the next succeeding Business Day(s) out of Collections on Loans and the related Contracts to be remitted to the Collection Account to the extent the net amount to the Collection Account is greater than zero.

63

Servicer is acting as successor Servicer, the Seller shall assist the Backup Servicer in the performance of its obligations under this Section 5.05(b)) shall instruct the Trust Collateral Agent (based on the information contained in the Servicer’s Certificate delivered to the Trust Collateral Agent in respect of the related Determination Date pursuant to Section 4.09), prior to the making of any transfers pursuant to Section 5.08 hereof, if required, to withdraw from the Reserve Account to the extent available therein with respect to amounts payable on such Distribution Date, the amounts specified below, and deposit such amounts in the Collection Account to be applied as follows:

SECTION 5.10. Certificate Distribution Account.
(a) On each Distribution Date, the Trust Collateral Agent shall (based on the information contained in the Servicer’s Certificate delivered on the related Determination Date) distribute all amounts on deposit in the Certificate Distribution Account to the Certificateholders.
(b) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to a Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Certificateholder in accordance with this Section. The Trust Collateral Agent is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Certificateholders sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally owed by the Trust as instructed in writing by the Servicer (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trust Collateral Agent from contesting, at the expense of the Seller, any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Certificateholder at the time it is withheld by the Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Trust Collateral Agent may withhold such amounts in accordance with this clause (b). In the event that a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Trust Collateral Agent shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Trust Collateral Agent for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. Upon request from the Trust Collateral Agent, the parties hereto will provide such additional information that they may have to assist the Trust Collateral Agent in making any such withholdings or information reports.
69

(c) Distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date and such Certificateholder’s Certificates in the aggregate evidence a denomination of not less than $500,000 or (ii) such Certificateholder is the Seller, or an Affiliate thereof, or, if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such holder appearing in the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final distribution in respect of any Certificate will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency maintained for that purpose by the Certificate Registrar pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Trust Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all transfers of funds between accounts may occur on the Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution Date related to such transfer; all distributions from accounts shall occur on the Distribution Date.

THE SELLER AND THE ISSUER
SECTION 6.01. Representations and Warranties of the Seller.
The Seller makes the following representations on which the Trust, the Indenture Trustee and the Trust Collateral Agent relied in accepting the Trust Property in trust and in connection with the performance by the Trust Collateral Agent and the Backup Servicer of their respective
71

obligations hereunder. The representations speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement on the Closing Date but shall survive the sale of the Contracts to the Trust:
(i) Organization and Good Standing. The Seller is duly organized and validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are currently owned and such business is presently conducted, and has and had at all relevant times, full power, authority, and legal right to acquire and own the Loans and the related Contracts.
(ii) Due Qualification. The Seller is duly qualified to do business as a foreign limited liability company in good standing, and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualifications.

The Seller has full 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 action; and the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by the Seller by all necessary action and do not require any additional approvals or consents or other action by or any notice to or any filing with, any Person.
(iv) Valid Sale; Binding Obligations. This Agreement evidences a valid sale, transfer, and assignment of the Trust Property enforceable against creditors of and purchasers from the Seller; and a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity.
(v) No Violation. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party and the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof does 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 certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement of the Seller, or any indenture, agreement, or other instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound; nor result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement, or other instrument; or violate any law or, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, any order, rule, or regulation applicable to the Seller of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Seller or its properties.
(vi) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending, or to the Seller’s best knowledge threatened, before any court, regulatory body,
72

administrative agency, or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Seller or its properties: (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, any other Basic Document to which it is a party or the Notes; (B) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Basic Document to which it is a party; (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect the performance by the Seller of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement, any other Basic Document to which it is a party or the Notes; or (D) relating to the Seller and which might adversely affect the federal income tax attributes of the Notes.
(vii) Principal Place of Business; Jurisdiction of Organization. The principal place of business of the Seller is located in Michigan. The Seller is organized under the laws of Delaware as a limited liability company, and is not organized under the laws of any other jurisdiction. “Credit Acceptance Funding LLC 2019-3” is the correct legal name of the Seller indicated on the public records of the Seller’s jurisdiction of organization which shows it to be organized.
(viii) [Reserved].
(ix) Certificates, Statements and Reports. The officers’ certificates, statements, reports and other documents prepared by the Seller and furnished by the Seller to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders pursuant to this Agreement or any other Basic Document to which the Seller is a party, and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained hereon or therein not misleading.
(x) Accuracy of Information. All information heretofore furnished by the Seller to the Trust or its successors and assigns or to the Noteholders pursuant to or in connection with any Basic Document or any transaction contemplated thereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by the Seller will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does not contain a material misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.

73

(xiii) Taxes. The Seller has filed on or before their respective due dates, all tax returns which are required to be filed in any jurisdiction or has obtained extensions for filing such tax returns and has paid all taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges against the Seller or any of its properties, income or franchises, to the extent that such taxes have become due, other than any taxes or assessments, the validity of which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which adequate provision has been made on the books of the Seller as may be required by GAAP. To the best of the knowledge of the Seller, all such tax returns were true and correct in all material respects and the Seller does not know of any proposed material additional tax assessment against it nor any basis therefor. Any material taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges payable by the Seller in connection with the execution and delivery of the Basic Documents and the issuance of the Notes have been paid or shall have been paid at or prior to Closing Date.

(xvii) Material Adverse Change. Since the date of its formation, no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on (i) the financial condition or operations of the Seller, (ii) the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations under the Basic Documents, or (iii) the collectability of the Loans generally or any material portion of the Loans.
(xviii) Special Purpose Entity.
(A) The capital of the Seller is adequate for the business and undertakings of the Seller.

(C) Other than in connection with the Basic Documents, the Seller has not incurred any indebtedness or assumed or guarantied any indebtedness of any other entity.
(D) At least two directors of the board of directors of the Seller shall be persons who (1) are not, and will not be, a director, officer, employee or holder of any equity securities of Credit Acceptance or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries; provided
74

that each such person may be an independent director or manager of another special purpose entity affiliated with the Servicer, and (2) have (x) prior experience as an “independent director” for a corporation or limited liability company whose charter documents required the unanimous consent of all independent directors thereof before such corporation or limited liability company could consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it or could file a petition seeking relief under any applicable federal or state law relating to bankruptcy and (y) at least three years of employment experience with one or more entities that provide, in the ordinary course of their respective businesses, advisory, management or placement services to issuers of securitization or structured finance instruments, agreements or securities.
(E) Once identified as Seller funds and assets by the Servicer and separated in accordance with the Servicer’s normal and customary business practices, the funds and assets of the Seller are not, and will not be, commingled with the funds of any other Person, except for Dealer Collections and erroneous deposits.
(F) The limited liability company agreement of the Seller requires it to maintain (A) correct and complete minute books and records of account, and (B) minutes of the meetings and other proceedings of its shareholders and board of directors.
(xix) Solvency; Fraudulent Conveyance. The Seller is solvent, is able to pay its debts as they become due and will not be rendered insolvent by the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents and, after giving effect thereto, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business. The Seller does not intend to incur, or believes that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. The Seller does not contemplate the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official for any of its assets. The amount of consideration being received by the Seller upon the sale of the Seller Property to the Trust constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the Seller Property. The Seller is not selling the Seller Property to the Trust, as provided in the Basic Documents, with any intent to hinder, deal or defraud any of Credit Acceptance’s creditors.
(xx) Payment to Originator. The Seller has given reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the Conveyed Property conveyed to the Seller under the Sale and Contribution Agreement and such conveyance was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No conveyance by the Originator of any originator property under the Sale and Contribution Agreement is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Code.
SECTION 6.02. Limitation on Liability of Seller and Others.
Neither the Seller nor any of the directors or officers or employees or agents of the Seller shall be under any liability to the Trust, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Noteholders or the Certificateholders, except as provided under this Agreement for any action taken or omitted to be taken pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Seller
75

against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of their respective duties under this Agreement. Each of the Seller and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Seller may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel, Opinion of Counsel, Officer’s Certificate, or on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute, or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Seller may undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement and the interests of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders under this Agreement. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs, and liabilities of the Seller.
SECTION 6.03. Seller May Own Notes.
The Seller and any Person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Seller may in their individual or any other capacities become the owner or pledgee of the Notes with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Seller or an affiliate thereof, except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Class A Noteholder,” “Class B Noteholder,” and “Class C Noteholder” specified in Section 1.01 and except as otherwise specifically provided herein. The Notes of any class so owned by or pledged to the Seller or such controlling, controlled or commonly controlled Person shall have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement, without preference, priority, or distinction as among all of the Notes of such class.
SECTION 6.04. Additional Covenants of the Seller.
The Seller shall not do any of the following, without the prior written consent of the Trust Collateral Agent, who shall, without any exercise of its own discretion, provide its written consent to the Seller upon receipt by it of a copy of the written consent of the Majority Noteholders:
(i) engage in any business or activity other than those set forth in the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Seller or amend the Seller’s certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement other than in accordance with its terms as in effect on the date hereof;
(ii) incur any indebtedness, or assume or guaranty any indebtedness of any other entity, other than (A) any indebtedness incurred in connection with the Notes, and (B) any indebtedness to Credit Acceptance incurred in connection with the acquisition of the Loans, which indebtedness shall be subordinated to all other obligations of the Seller and Credit Acceptance; or
(iii) dissolve or liquidate, in whole or in part; consolidate or merge with or into any other entity or convey or transfer its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any entity.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Backup Servicer is legally unable to so act, the Trust Collateral Agent shall appoint (after soliciting bids from potential servicers), or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a Servicer as the successor Servicer hereunder, in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the outgoing Servicer hereunder. In the event that Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Backup Servicer, is legally unable to act as Servicer under this Agreement and another entity is appointed as successor Servicer under this Section 8.02(a), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association shall have no further obligation to perform the obligations of Servicer or Backup Servicer under this Agreement. Pending appointment of a successor to the outgoing Servicer hereunder, if the Backup Servicer is prohibited by law from so acting (as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to the Trust Collateral Agent and the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders), the outgoing Servicer shall continue to act as Servicer hereunder until a successor Servicer is appointed and assumes the obligations as successor Servicer.

87

licensing or qualification, in order to perform its obligations as Servicer hereunder or, alternatively, shall retain an agent who is so licensed, qualified and in good standing.
(b) Upon appointment, the Backup Servicer or the successor Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the predecessor Servicer and shall be subject to the responsibilities, duties, and liabilities arising thereafter relating thereto placed on the predecessor Servicer (subject to the limitations and modifications thereto set forth herein or in the Backup Servicing Agreement) and shall be entitled to (to the extent arranged in accordance with the following paragraph) the Servicing Fee, Servicer Expenses, Repossession Expenses and all of the rights granted to the predecessor Servicer, by the terms and provisions of this Agreement, provided that neither the Backup Servicer nor the successor Servicer shall be liable for the acts or omissions of any predecessor Servicer. The Backup Servicer or any successor Servicer shall provide Credit Acceptance with copies of all documents and information reasonably necessary for Credit Acceptance to perform its obligations under Section 4.17 of this Agreement.
(c) In connection with such appointment, the Trust Collateral Agent may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor Servicer (including Transition Expenses) out of payments on Loans and related Contracts as it, the Majority Noteholders and such successor Servicer shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation (excluding Transition Expenses and Repossession Expenses) shall be in excess of the Servicing Fee. The Backup Servicer, the Trust Collateral Agent and any such successor Servicer shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
SECTION 8.03. Notification to Noteholders and Certificateholders.
Upon any termination of, or appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to this Article VIII, the Trust Collateral Agent shall promptly upon its receipt of notice thereof give prompt written notice thereof to the Noteholders and the Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Note Register and the Certificate Register, the Issuer, the Board of Trustees, the Owner Trustee and the Servicer (who shall promptly provide such notice to each of the Rating Agencies then rating the Notes).

The Majority Noteholders, may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any or all default(s) by the Servicer or the Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consequences thereof, except a default in making any required deposits to or payments from a Trust Account in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the Majority Noteholders, shall have the right to waive the payment of any Purchase Amount required hereunder except any Purchase Amount payable pursuant to Section 10.01(a).

96

(D) the Trust Collateral Agent fails to comply with any material covenant hereunder; or
(E) the Trust Collateral Agent otherwise becomes legally incapable of acting.
(ii) [Reserved].
(iii) If the Trust Collateral Agent resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trust Collateral Agent for any reason (the Trust Collateral Agent in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trust Collateral Agent), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trust Collateral Agent.
A successor Trust Collateral Agent shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trust Collateral Agent and to the Issuer. Thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trust Collateral Agent shall become effective, and the successor Trust Collateral Agent shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Trust Collateral Agent under this Agreement subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. The successor Trust Collateral Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies. The retiring Trust Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trust Collateral Agent to the successor Trust Collateral Agent.
If a successor Trust Collateral Agent does not take office within sixty (60) days after the retiring Trust Collateral Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Trust Collateral Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trust Collateral Agent that meets the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 9.06 hereof.
If the Trust Collateral Agent fails to comply with Section 9.12, any Noteholder with the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trust Collateral Agent and the appointment of a successor Trust Collateral Agent.
Any resignation or removal of the Trust Collateral Agent and appointment of a successor Trust Collateral Agent pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trust Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 9.10(c) and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Trust Collateral Agent by the Servicer and the Issuer.
Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trust Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section, the Issuer’s and the Servicer’s obligations under Section 9.05 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trust Collateral Agent.
(d) Acceptance by Successor. If the Trust Collateral Agent has resigned or has been removed pursuant to this Section 9.10, the Issuer (or the Owner Trustee, on its behalf (acting at the written direction of the Majority Certificateholder)) shall have the sole right to appoint each successor Trust Collateral Agent that meets the qualifications required hereunder. Every temporary or permanent successor Trust Collateral Agent appointed hereunder shall execute,
97

acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and to the Owner Trustee, each Noteholder, each Certificateholder, the Rating Agencies, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer an instrument in writing accepting such appointment hereunder and the relevant predecessor shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such other documents and instruments as will effectuate the delivery of all Collateral to the successor Trust Collateral Agent, whereupon such successor, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor. Such predecessor shall, nevertheless, on the written request of the Issuer, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and obligations of such predecessor hereunder. In the event that any instrument in writing from the Issuer is reasonably required by a successor Trust Collateral Agent to more fully and certainly vest in such successor the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and obligations vested or intended to be vested hereunder in the Trust Collateral Agent, any and all such written instruments shall, at the request of the temporary or permanent successor Trust Collateral Agent, be forthwith executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer (or the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, (acting at the written direction of the Majority Certificateholders)), as the case may be. The designation of any successor Trust Collateral Agent and the instrument or instruments removing any Trust Collateral Agent and appointing a successor hereunder, together with all other instruments provided for herein, shall be maintained with the records relating to the Trust Property and, to the extent required by applicable law, filed or recorded by the successor Trust Collateral Agent in each place where such filing or recording is necessary to effect the transfer of the Trust Property to the successor Trust Collateral Agent or to protect or continue the perfection of the security interests granted hereunder.
If no successor Trust Collateral Agent shall have been appointed and accepted the appointment within sixty (60) days after the giving of notice of resignation, the resigning Trust Collateral Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trust Collateral Agent that meets the qualifications required hereunder.
SECTION 9.11. Representations and Warranties of the Trust Collateral Agent.

100

of any of the Noteholders to: (i) cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement, or to add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement that shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; or (ii) reflect the succession of a successor Servicer or successor Backup Servicer; provided, however, that in connection with any amendment pursuant to clause (i), the action referred to therein shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder without such Noteholder’s consent; and provided, further, that in connection with any amendment pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Collateral Agent and the Indenture Trustee a letter from each Rating Agency, which then has a rating on the Notes, to the effect that such amendment will not cause the then current ratings on the Notes to be qualified, reduced or withdrawn, or, each Rating Agency shall have been given at least ten (10) days’ prior notice of such amendment and such Rating Agency shall not have issued any written notice to the Indenture Trustee that such amendment will itself cause such Rating Agency to downgrade or withdraw its rating assigned to any class of Notes.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Seller, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Backup Servicer (at the written direction of the Issuer) and the Trust Collateral Agent (at the written direction of the Issuer) with the consent of the Majority Noteholders (which consent of any Holder of a Note given pursuant to this Section 11.01 or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of such Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange thereof or in lieu thereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Note), for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the Class A Note Balance, Class B Note Balance, or Class C Note Balance, or change the Class A Stated Final Maturity Date, Class B Stated Final Maturity Date, Class C Stated Final Maturity Date, Class A Note Rate, Class B Note Rate, Class C Note Rate, Class A Principal Distributable Amount, Class B Principal Distributable Amount or Class C Principal Distributable Amount, or (b) reduce the percentage required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of each Holder of Notes then outstanding.

Prior to the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Servicer will provide and the Trust Collateral Agent shall distribute written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Rating Agency then rating the Notes.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, the Trust Collateral Agent shall furnish a copy of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Noteholder and each Certificateholder.
101

109

nominal value of the securitized exposures with respect to the Notes (the “Retained Interest”), in the form of a first loss tranche in accordance with the text of paragraph (d) of Article 6(3) of the EU Securitization Regulation, by holding, through the Seller (its wholly-owned subsidiary), the Certificate representing a beneficial interest in the Issuer equal to at least five percent of the aggregate nominal value of the Loans (the “Retention Option”);
(b) it will not (and will not permit the Seller or any of its Affiliates to) hedge or otherwise mitigate its credit risk under or associated with the Retained Interest or sell, transfer or otherwise surrender all or part of the rights, benefits or obligations arising from the Retained Interest, except to the extent permitted in accordance with the European Securitization Rules;

The Forecasted Collections Tables below indicate the percentages of the initial principal balance of each class of Notes that would be outstanding after each of the Distribution Dates shown at various percentages of monthly collections of the Base Case Forecasted Collections Schedule, and the corresponding weighted average lives of the Notes. Actual collections on the Contracts may differ materially from the assumptions used in constructing the Forecasted Collections Tables. The assumptions used are hypothetical and have been provided only to give a general sense of how the principal cash flows might behave under varying forecasted collection scenarios. It is unlikely that the Collections on the Contracts will occur at the expected level until maturity or that all of the Contracts will be collected upon at the same rate. Any difference between the assumptions and the actual performance of the Contracts, including collection experience or losses, will affect the percentages of the initial Note Balance of the Notes outstanding over time and the weighted average lives of the Notes.

SCHEDULE C
to Sale and
Servicing Agreement
Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants
In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreement, the Seller hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to the Trust and the Indenture Trustee as follows on the Closing Date and on each Distribution Date on which the Trust purchases Loans, in each case only with respect to the Seller Property conveyed to the Trust on the Closing Date or the relevant Distribution Date:
General
1. The Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in UCC Section 9-102) in the Seller Property in favor of the Trust, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from and assignees of the Seller.
2. Each Contract constitutes “tangible chattel paper,” “electronic chattel paper” or a “payment intangible” within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102. Each Dealer Loan constitutes a “payment intangible” or a “general intangible” within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102.
3. Each Dealer Agreement and Purchase Agreement constitutes either a “general intangible,” or “tangible chattel paper” within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102.
4. There is only one original executed copy of each “tangible record” constituting or forming a part of each Contract that is tangible chattel paper and a single “authoritative copy” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC) of each electronic record constituting or forming a part of each Contract that is electronic chattel paper.
5. The Seller has taken or will take all necessary actions with respect to the Loans to perfect its security interest in the Loans and in the property securing the Loans.
Creation
1. The Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the Initial Seller Property or Subsequent Seller Property, as applicable, free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person, excepting only liens for taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges or levies incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable or as to which any applicable grace period shall not have expired, or that are being contested in good faith by proper proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established, but only so long as foreclosure with respect to such a lien is not imminent and the use and value of the property to which the Lien attaches is not impaired during the pendency of such proceeding.

Perfection
1. The Seller has caused or will have caused, within ten (10) days after the effective date of the Indenture, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the conveyance and sale of the Conveyed Property from the Originator to the Seller, the transfer and sale of the Seller Property from the Seller to the Issuer, and the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.
2. With respect to Seller Property that constitutes tangible chattel paper, such tangible chattel paper is in the possession of the Servicer, in its capacity as custodian for the Trust and the Trust Collateral Agent, and the Trust Collateral Agent has received a written acknowledgment from the Servicer, in its capacity as custodian, that it is holding such tangible chattel paper solely on its behalf and for the benefit of the Trust Collateral Agent, the Seller, the Trust and the relevant Dealer(s). With respect to Seller Property that constitutes electronic chattel paper, the Trust Collateral Agent has received a written acknowledgment from the Servicer that it, maintains control over such “electronic chattel paper”, as defined in Section 9-105 of the UCC, for the benefit of the Trust Collateral Agent, the Seller, the Trust and the relevant Dealer(s). All financing statements filed or to be filed against the Seller in favor of the Issuer or its assignee in connection with this Agreement describing the Seller Property contain a statement to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Secured Party.”
Priority
1. Other than the security interest granted to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, the Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Seller Property. None of the Originator, the Servicer nor the Seller has authorized the filing of, or is aware of any financing statements against either the Seller, the Originator or the Trust that includes a description of the Seller Property and proceeds related thereto other than any financing statement: (i) relating to the sale of Conveyed Property by the Originator to the Seller under the Sale and Contribution Agreement, (ii) relating to the security interest granted to the Trust hereunder, (iii) relating to the security interest granted to the Trust Collateral Agent under the Indenture; or (iv) that has been terminated or amended to reflect a release of the Seller Property.
2. Neither the Seller, the Originator nor the Trust is aware of any judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against either the Seller, the Originator or the Trust.
3. None of the tangible chattel paper or electronic chattel paper that constitutes or evidences the Contracts, the Dealer Agreements or the Purchase Agreements has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Originator, the Servicer, the Seller, the Trust, a collection agent or the Trust Collateral Agent.
C-2

Survival of Perfection Representations
1. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, the Sale and Contribution Agreement, the Indenture or any other Basic Document, the Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants contained in this Schedule shall be continuing, and remain in full force and effect (notwithstanding any replacement of the Servicer or termination of Servicer’s rights to act as such) until such time as all obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, Sale and Contribution Agreement and the Indenture have been finally and fully paid and performed.
No Waiver
1. The parties hereto: (i) shall not, without obtaining a confirmation of the then-current ratings of the Notes, waive any of the Perfection Representations, Warranties or Covenants; (ii) shall provide the Rating Agencies with prompt written notice of any breach of the Perfection Representations, Warranties or Covenants, and shall not, without obtaining a confirmation of the then-current ratings of the Notes as determined after any adjustment or withdrawal of the ratings following notice of such breach, waive a breach of any of the Perfection Representations, Warranties or Covenants.
