Section 3.5Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

(a) If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee and the Trust such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Owner Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Owner Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (or shall cause Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as its authenticating agent to authenticate and deliver), in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a replacement Certificate of a like percentage interest in the Trust, as shown on the Certificate;provided,however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, but not a mutilated Certificate, shall have become or within seven (7) days shall be payable, then instead of issuing a replacement Certificate the Owner Trustee may make distributions on such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate when so payable.

(b) If, after the delivery of a replacement Certificate or payment in respect of a destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate pursuant toSection 3.5(a), a protected purchaser of the original Certificate in lieu of which such replacement Certificate was issued presents for payment or distribution such original Certificate, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Certificate (and any distributions or payments made with respect thereto) or such payment or distribution from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Certificate from such Person to whom such replacement Certificate was

delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Owner Trustee in connection therewith.

(c) In connection with the issuance of any replacement Certificate under thisSection 3.5, the Owner Trustee may require the payment by the Holder of such Certificate of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith.

(d) Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to thisSection 3.5 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall constitute an original additional beneficial interest in the Trust, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall be found at any time or be enforced by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Certificates duly issued hereunder.

(e) The provisions of thisSection 3.5 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificates.

Section 3.6Persons Deemed Certificateholders. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate shall be registered in the Certificate Register as the Certificateholder of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant toArticle V and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Owner Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 3.7Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. The Owner Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the Depositor, within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Owner Trustee of a request therefor from the Servicer or the Depositor in writing, a list of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold any of the Servicer, the Depositor or the Owner Trustee accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

Section 3.8Maintenance of Corporate Trust Office. The Owner Trustee shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Owner Trustee in respect of the Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served.

Except as otherwise provided inSection 5.2, the Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant toSection 5.2 and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee and the Servicer;provided,however, that no such reports shall be required so long as the Depositor is the sole Certificateholder. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above. The Owner Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent shall have failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Paying Agent shall initially be Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, and any co-paying agent chosen by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, and acceptable to the Owner Trustee. Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Owner Trustee.

The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee. The provisions ofSections 6.3,6.6,6.7 and6.9 shall apply to the Owner Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent for so long as the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent, certificate registrar or authenticating agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

ARTICLE V
APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

Section 5.1Establishment of Certificate Distribution Account.

(a) Except as otherwise provided inSection 5.2, the Servicer, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain in the name of the Trust an Eligible Deposit Account known as the Capital Auto Receivables Asset Trust 2007-3 Certificate Distribution Account (the “Certificate Distribution Account”), bearing an additional designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

(b) The Trust shall possess all right, title and interest in and to all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Indenture or in the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If, at any time, the Certificate Distribution Account ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Owner Trustee (or the Servicer on behalf of the Owner Trustee, if the Certificate Distribution Account is not then held by the Owner Trustee or an Affiliate thereof) shall within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed thirty (30) calendar days, as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new Certificate Distribution Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Certificate Distribution Account.

Section 5.2Application of Trust Funds.

(a) On each Distribution Date, the Owner Trustee shall distribute to the Certificateholders, on a pro rata basis, amounts equal to the amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant toSection 4.06 andSection 4.07 of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement on or prior to such Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Basic Documents, if and for so long as Certificates representing in the aggregate a 100% beneficial interest in the Trust are held by the Depositor, (i) no Certificate Distribution Account shall be required to be established or maintained and (ii) all distributions and payments on the Certificates (including the final distribution as contemplated bySection 7.1(c) hereof) required hereunder or under the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement

shall be made directly to the Depositor by the Indenture Trustee (whether or not the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement otherwise contemplates deposit into the Certificate Distribution Account) and the Owner Trustee shall have no duty or liability to see to such distribution.

(b) On each Distribution Date, the Owner Trustee shall send to each Certificateholder the statement provided to the Owner Trustee by the Servicer pursuant toSection 4.09(a) of the Trust Sale and Servicing Agreement on such Distribution Date; provided that no such statement shall be required to be sent by the Owner Trustee if and for so long as the Depositor is the sole Certificateholder.

(c) If 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 thisSection 5.2; provided that the Owner Trustee shall not have an obligation to withhold any such amount if and for so long as the Depositor is the sole Certificateholder. The Owner Trustee 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 (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting 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 (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Certificateholder), the Owner Trustee may in its sole discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with thisSection 5.2(c). If a Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with such Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

(d) If the Indenture Trustee holds escheated funds for payment to the Trust pursuant toSection 3.3(e) of the Indenture, the Owner Trustee shall, upon notice from the Indenture Trustee that such funds exist, submit on behalf of the Trust an Issuer Order to the Indenture Trustee pursuant toSection 3.3(e) of the Indenture instructing the Indenture Trustee to pay such funds to or at the order of the Depositor.

Section 5.3Method of Payment. Subject toSection 7.1(c), distributions required to be made to Certificateholders on any Distribution Date shall be made to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account of such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefore, if such Certificateholder shall have provided to the Certificate Registrar appropriate written instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Record Date or if not, by check mailed to such Certificateholder at the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register.

Section 5.4Accounting and Reports to the Certificateholders, the Internal Revenue Service and Others. The Owner Trustee shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Trust on a calendar year basis on the accrual method of accounting, deliver to each Certificateholder, as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations or otherwise, such information as may be required to enable each Certificateholder to prepare its

federal income tax return, file such tax returns relating to the Trust and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable state or federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder so as to maintain the Trust’s characterization as an entity described in clause (a) ofSection 2.11 for federal income tax purposes, cause such tax returns to be signed in the manner required by law and collect or cause to be collected any withholding tax as described in and in accordance withSection 5.2(c) with respect to income or distributions to Certificateholders. In the event that the Internal Revenue Service were to contend successfully that the Trust is not a disregarded entity but is rather a partnership for federal income tax purposes, the Trust shall allocate items of income, gain, deduction and loss to the partners of the Trust in accordance with their economic interests in the Trust. With respect to interest expense of the Trust, the Trust shall allocate to the Certificateholders their share of the entire amount of such interest expense.

Section 5.5Signature on Returns; Other Tax Matters. The Owner Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust any and all tax returns of the Trust, unless applicable law requires a Certificateholder to sign such documents, in which case such documents shall be signed by the Depositor. To the extent one may be required, the Depositor shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Trust pursuant to the Code.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any other Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms hereof or of any other Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

(ii) no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Owner Trustee.

The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not (x) operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, (y) entitle such

Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the Trust or the Owner Trust Estate or (z) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.

(b) Neither the Depositor nor any Certificateholder shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Trust or this Agreement.

The Owner Trustee shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Distribution Date pursuant toSection 5.2.

(d) If all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the written notice referred to inSection 7.1(c), the Owner Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto.

(This Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of Capital Auto Receivables LLC or GMAC LLC or any of their respective affiliates, except to the extent described in the Basic Documents.)

THIS CERTIFIES THAT is the registered owner of a nonassessable, fully-paid fractional undivided interest in Capital Auto Receivables Asset Trust 2007-3 (the “Trust”) formed by Capital Auto Receivables LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

The Trust was created pursuant to a Trust Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2007 (as amended and supplemented as of September 18, 2007, the “Trust Agreement”), between the Depositor and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth below. To the extent not otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Trust Agreement.

This Certificate is one of the duly authorized Certificates designated as Asset Backed Certificates (the “Certificates”). This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof, to which Trust Agreement the holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such holder is bound.

Under the Trust Agreement there shall be distributed on the 15^th day of each month, or if such 15^th day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day, commencing on October 15, 2007 (each, a “Distribution Date”), to the person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the related Record Date, such amount as is provided in the Basic Documents.

Except as otherwise required by appropriate taxing authorities, the Depositor and the other Certificateholders by acceptance of a Certificate agree to treat, and to take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, the Certificates for such tax purposes as interests in such a disregarded entity or partnership as described in the previous sentence.

The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, New York, New York.

The Certificate is issuable only as a registered Certificate. As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificate is exchangeable for a new Certificate.

The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as
