(i) Characteristics of Receivables. Each Receivable (A) was originated in the United States of America by Deere & Company or John Deere Construction & Forestry Company (each, an “Originating Party” and collectively the “Originating Parties”) in the ordinary course of business or was originated by a Dealer and assigned to the Originating Parties in the ordinary course of business, in each case in connection with the retail sale by a Dealer of Financed Equipment in the ordinary course of such Dealer’s business, was fully and properly executed by the parties thereto, was purchased by the Seller from such Originating Parties under an existing agreement with the Originating Parties and was validly assigned by such Originating Parties to the Seller in accordance with its terms, (B) is secured by a validly perfected enforceable first priority purchase money security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in favor of the applicable Originating Party in the Financed Equipment, which security interest is assignable by the Seller to the Purchaser, by the Purchaser to the Issuing Entity and by the Issuing Entity to the Indenture Trustee and which security interest has priority over any security interest in the Financed Equipment granted in favor of the Seller or any of its affiliates, (C) contains customary and enforceable provisions such that the rights and remedies of the holder thereof are adequate for realization against the collateral of the benefits of the security and (D) provides for fixed payments on a periodic basis, yields interest at a fixed rate or is non-interest bearing and is prepayable without premium or penalty at any time.

Each Receivable represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the Obligor, enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Such enforceability has not been and is not adversely affected by whether or not the Seller was or is qualified to do business in the State in which the Obligor was or is located.

(v) Security Interest in Financed Equipment. Immediately prior to the sale, assignment and transfer thereof, each Receivable shall be secured by a validly perfected first priority purchase money security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Financed Equipment in favor of the Seller as secured party or, in accordance with its customary standards, policies and servicing procedures, the Seller has taken all steps as are necessary to result in a validly perfected first priority purchase money security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Financed Equipment in favor of the Seller as secured party.

(vi) Receivables in Force. No Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor has any Financed Equipment been released from the lien granted by the related Receivable in whole or in part. No Receivable is rescindable on the basis of whether or not the Seller is qualified to do business in the State in which the Obligor is located.

(ix) No Defenses. No right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted or threatened with respect to any Receivable.

(x) No Liens. No liens or claims have been filed for work, labor or materials relating to any Financed Equipment that are liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in the Financed Equipment granted by the Receivable.

(xi) No Default. No Receivable has a payment that is more than [89] days overdue as of the Cut-off Date and, except as permitted in this paragraph, no default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has occurred and is continuing; and (except for payment defaults continuing for a period of not more than [89] days) no continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has arisen; and the Seller has not waived and shall not waive any of the foregoing.

(xii) Insurance. The Seller, in accordance with its customary procedures, has determined that the Obligor has obtained physical damage insurance covering the Financed Equipment and under the terms of the Receivable, the Obligor is required to maintain such insurance.
