(i) TITLE. It is the intention of each Contributor that the
transfer and assignment herein contemplated constitute a
contribution of the Receivables conveyed by such Contributor to
the Company pursuant to Section 2.1 and that the beneficial
interest in and title to such Receivables not be part of the

procedures in effect at the time such Receivable was originated
or purchased, (B) is being conveyed by the related Contributor to
the Company, (C) has created or shall create a valid, subsisting
and enforceable first priority security interest in favor of the
related Contributor in the related Financed Vehicle, which
security interest has been assigned by such Contributor to the
Company and which is assignable by the Company to the Trust and
by the Trust to the Trustee, (D) contains customary and
enforceable provisions under the laws of the State governing such
Receivable such that the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof are adequate for realization against the collateral of
the benefits of the security; and (E) provides for level monthly
payments that fully amortizes the Amount Financed by maturity
(except for the last payment, which may be different from the
level payment and except, with respect to a Balloon Loan, to the
extent of the Balloon Payment).
(iv) COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Each Receivable, the sale of the
Financed Vehicle and the sale of any physical damage and credit
life and credit accident and health insurance and any extended
service contracts complied in all material respects at the time
it was originated or made and at the Closing Date (after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents)

Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade
Commission Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal
Reserve Board's Regulations B and Z, the Soldier's and Sailor's
Civil Relief Act of 1940, state adaptations of the National
Consumer Act and the Uniform Consumer Credit Code (if
applicable), and other consumer credit laws and equal credit
opportunity and disclosure laws.
(v) BINDING OBLIGATION. Each Receivable represents the
legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the
Obligor thereunder, enforceable by the holder thereof in
accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and similar laws now or
hereafter in effect related to or affecting creditors' rights
generally and subject to general principles of equity (whether
applied in a proceeding at law or in equity) and all parties to
such Receivable had full legal capacity to execute and deliver
such Receivable and all other documents related thereto and to
grant the security interest purported to be granted thereby.
(vi) NO GOVERNMENT OBLIGOR. None of the Receivables is due
from the United States of America or any State or from any
agency, department or instrumentality of the United States of
America or any State.
(vii) SECURITY INTEREST IN FINANCED VEHICLE. Immediately
prior to the contribution, assignment, and transfer thereof under
the Agreement, (i) each Receivable shall be secured by a validly
perfected first priority security interest in the Financed
Vehicle in favor of such Contributor as secured party, or (ii)
application has been made with the appropriate governmental
authority for a valid perfected first priority security interest
in the Financed Vehicle in favor of such Contributor, and such
security interest is or shall be prior to all other Liens upon
and security interests in such Financed Vehicle which now exist
or may hereafter arise or be created (except, as to priority, for
any tax liens or mechanics' liens which may arise after the
Closing Date).
(viii) RECEIVABLES IN FORCE. No Receivable has been
satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, nor has any Financed
Vehicle been released from the Lien granted by the related
Receivable in whole or in part unless another vehicle has been

other modification to such Receivable.

modified or waived except as reflected in the Receivable File

Servicing Agreement if such Receivable had been owned by the
Trust.
(xi) NO DEFENSES. No right of rescission, setoff,
counterclaim or defense has been asserted or threatened with
respect to any Receivable. The operation of the terms of any
Receivable or the exercise of any right thereunder will not
render such Receivable unenforceable in whole or in part or
subject to any such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim, or
defense.
(xii) NO LIENS. As of the Cutoff Date, there are no Liens or
claims, including Liens for work, labor, materials or unpaid
state or federal taxes relating to any Financed Vehicle securing
the related Receivable, that are or may be prior to or equal to
the Lien granted by such Receivable.
(xiii) NO DEFAULT. Except for payment delinquencies
continuing for a period of not more than thirty days as of the
Cutoff Date and, except as permitted in this paragraph, no
default, breach, violation or event (in any such case) permitting
acceleration under the terms of any Receivable has occurred; and
no continuing condition that with notice or the lapse of time
would constitute a default, breach, violation or event (in any
such case) permitting acceleration under the terms of any
Receivable has arisen; and such Contributor has not waived and
shall not waive any of the foregoing.
(xiv) NO BANKRUPTCIES. No Obligor on any Receivable was
noted in the related Receivable File as having filed for

that each Receivable requires the Obligor to maintain such
insurance naming the applicable Contributor and its successors
and assigns as a loss payee, (B) each Receivable that finances
the cost of premiums for credit life and credit accident and
health insurance is covered by an insurance policy or certificate
of insurance naming the applicable Contributor as loss payee
(lienholder) under each such insurance policy and certificate of
insurance and (C) as to each Receivable that finances the cost of
an extended service contract, the respective Financed Vehicle
which secures the Receivable is covered by an extended service
contract.
(xviii) LAWFUL ASSIGNMENT. No Receivable has been originated
in, or as of the Closing Date is subject to the laws of, any
jurisdiction under which the contribution, transfer and
assignment of such Receivable or this Agreement or the pledge of
such Receivable to the Trustee under the Indenture (i) is
unlawful, void, voidable or unenforceable in accordance with its
terms or (ii) would render such Receivable void, voidable or
unenforceable in accordance with its terms. No Contributor has
entered into any agreement with any account debtor that
prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of all or any
portion of the Receivable.
