ARTICLE IV.

COVENANTS OF SELLER


SECTION 4.1     Protection of Title of Purchaser.



	 	          (a)     At or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have filed or caused to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement, naming Seller as seller or debtor, naming Purchaser as purchaser or secured party and describing the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property being sold by it
 to Purchaser as collateral, with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and in such other locations as Purchaser shall have required. From time to time thereafter, Seller shall execute and file such financing statements and cause to be executed and filed such
 continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of Purchaser under this Agreement, of the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and of the Trust Collateral Agent under the
 Indenture in the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property and in the proceeds thereof. Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Purchaser, the Trust Collateral Agent and the Insurer



7







Back to Contents

	 	file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. In the event that Seller fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, Purchaser, Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent may do so, at the expense of
 such Seller. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser, the Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent to file a record or records (as defined in the applicable UCC), including, without limitation, financing statements, in all jurisdictions and with all filing
 offices as each may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.9 of this Agreement. Such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described herein or may
 contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as such party may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the collateral granted to the Purchaser herein. 



	 	 
	 	          (b)     Seller shall not change its name, identity, state of incorporation or corporate structure in any manner that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by Seller (or by Purchaser, Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of
 Seller) in accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously misleading within the meaning of §9-506 of the applicable UCC, unless they shall have given Purchaser, Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days’ prior written notice thereof, and shall promptly
 file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements.



	 	 
	 	          (c)     Seller shall give Purchaser, the Issuer, the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing) and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days’ prior written notice of any relocation that would result in a change of location of the debtor
 within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the applicable UCC. Seller shall at all times maintain each office from which it services Receivables and its principal executive office within the United States of America.



	 	 
	 	          (d)     Prior to the Closing Date, Seller has maintained accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit (i) the reader thereof to know at any time as of or prior to the Closing Date, the status of such Receivable, including payments and
 recoveries made and payments owing (and the nature of each) and (ii) reconciliation between payments or recoveries on (or with respect to) each Receivable and the Principal Balance as of the Closing Date. Seller shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the
 time of sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to Purchaser, and the conveyance of the Receivables by Purchaser to the Issuer, Seller’s master computer records (including archives) that shall refer to a Receivable indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold to
 Purchaser and has been conveyed by Purchaser to the Issuer. Indication of the Issuer’s ownership of a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on Seller’s computer systems when, and only when, the Receivable shall become a Purchased Receivable or shall have been paid
 in full.



	 	 
	 	          (e)     If at any time Seller shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle receivables to any prospective



8







Back to Contents

	 	purchaser, lender or other transferee, Seller shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender, or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored from archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable (other than a
 Purchased Receivable), shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold to Purchaser, sold by Purchaser to Issuer, and is owned by the Issuer.




SECTION 4.2     Other Liens or Interests.     Except for the conveyances hereunder, Seller will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on the Receivables or the Other Conveyed Property or any interest
 therein, and Seller shall defend the right, title, and interest of Purchaser and the Issuer in and to the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Seller.




SECTION 4.3     Costs
      and Expenses.     Seller shall pay all reasonable
      costs and disbursements in connection with the performance of its obligations
      hereunder and under its Related Documents.




SECTION 4.4     Indemnification.



	 	          (a)     Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, the Issuer, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims, and
 liabilities, arising out of or resulting from any breach of any of Seller’s representations and warranties contained herein.



	 	 
	 	          (b)     Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, the Issuer, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholder from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims, and

	ARTICLE V.

      

            REPURCHASES




SECTION 5.1     Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach of Warranty.     Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, Seller shall, unless the breach which is the subject of such Repurchase Event shall have been cured in all material respects, repurchase the Receivable relating
 thereto from the Issuer and, simultaneously with the repurchase of the Receivable, Seller shall deposit the Purchase Amount in full, without deduction or offset, to the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. It is understood and agreed that,
 except as set forth in Section 6.1 hereof, the obligation of Seller to repurchase any Receivable, as to which a breach occurred and is continuing, shall, if such obligation is fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against Seller for such breach available to Purchaser, the Issuer, the Insurer, the
 Backup Servicer, the Noteholders, the Certificateholder, the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of the Noteholders or the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholder. The provisions of this Section 5.1 are intended to grant the Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust Collateral Agent a direct
 right against Seller to demand performance hereunder, and in connection therewith, Seller waives any requirement of prior demand against Purchaser with respect to such repurchase obligation. Any such repurchase shall take place in the manner specified in Section 3.2 of the Sale and
 Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement to the contrary, the obligation of Seller under this Section shall not terminate upon a termination of Seller as Servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and shall be
 performed in accordance with the terms hereof notwithstanding the failure of the Servicer or Purchaser to perform any of their respective obligations with respect to such Receivable under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.




In addition to the foregoing and notwithstanding whether the related Receivable shall have been purchased by Seller, Seller shall indemnify the Issuer, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer, the Noteholders and the
 Certificateholder from and against all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, which may be asserted against or incurred by any of them as a result of third party claims arising out of the events or facts giving rise to such
 Repurchase Events.

SECTION 5.2     Reassignment of Purchased Receivables.     Upon deposit in the Collection Account of the Purchase Amount of any Receivable repurchased by Seller under Section 5.1 hereof, Purchaser and the Issuer shall take such steps as may be reasonably requested by Seller
 in order to assign to Seller all of Purchaser’s and the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivable and all security and documents and all Other Conveyed Property conveyed to Purchaser and the Issuer directly relating thereto, without recourse, representation or warranty,
 except as to the absence of Liens created by or arising as a result of actions of Purchaser or the Issuer. Such assignment shall be a sale and assignment outright, and not for security. If, following the reassignment of a Purchased Receivable, in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding, it is
 held that Seller may not enforce any such Receivable on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Receivable, Purchaser and the Issuer shall, at the expense of Seller, take such steps as Seller deems reasonably necessary to enforce the
 Receivable, including bringing suit in Purchaser’s or in the Issuer’s name.




SECTION 5.3     Waivers.     No failure or delay on the part of Purchaser, or the Issuer as assignee of Purchaser, or the Trust Collateral Agent as assignee of the Issuer, in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
 single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.



	ARTICLE VI.

            MISCELLANEOUS




SECTION 6.1     Liability of Seller.     Seller shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations in this Agreement specifically undertaken by Seller and the representations and warranties of Seller.




SECTION 6.2     Merger or Consolidation of Seller or Purchaser.     Any corporation or other entity (i) into which Seller or Purchaser may be merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger or consolidation to which Seller or Purchaser is a party or (iii) succeeding to the
 business of Seller or Purchaser, in the case of Purchaser, which corporation has a certificate of incorporation containing provisions relating to limitations on business and other matters substantively identical to those contained in Purchaser’s trust agreement, provided that in any of the
 foregoing cases such corporation shall execute an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, under this Agreement and, whether or not such assumption agreement is executed, shall be the successor to Seller or Purchaser, as the case
 may be, hereunder (without relieving Seller or Purchaser of their responsibilities hereunder, if it survives such merger or consolidation) without the execution or filing of any document or any further action by any of the parties to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as
 an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, Purchaser shall not merge or consolidate with any other Person or permit any other Person to become the successor to Purchaser’s business without the prior written consent of the Insurer. Seller or Purchaser shall promptly
 inform the other party, the Issuer, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee and, so long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the



12

Insurer of such merger, consolidation or purchase and assumption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a condition to the consummation of the transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, (x) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no representation or warranty
 made pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.2 of this Agreement shall have been breached (for purposes hereof, such representations and warranties shall speak as of the date of the consummation of such transaction) and no event that, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an event
 of default under the Insurance Agreement, shall have occurred and be continuing, (y) Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall have delivered written notice of such consolidation, merger or purchase and assumption to the Rating Agencies prior to the consummation of such transaction
 and shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller or a certificate signed by or on behalf of the Purchaser, as applicable, and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that such consolidation, merger or succession and such
 agreement of assumption comply with this Section 6.2 and that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, and (z) Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Insurer and the Trust
 Collateral Agent an Opinion of Counsel, stating, in the opinion of such counsel, either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary to preserve and protect the interest of the Issuer and the Trust
 Collateral Agent in the Receivables and reciting the details of the filings or (B) no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interest.


SECTION 6.3     Limitation on Liability of Seller and Others.     Seller and any director, officer, employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any
 matters arising under this Agreement. Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its obligations under this Agreement or its Related Documents and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.




SECTION 6.4     Seller May Own Notes or the Certificate.     Subject to the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, Seller and any Affiliate of Seller may in their individual or any other capacity become the owner or pledgee of Notes or the Certificate with the same rights

SECTION 6.5     Amendment.



	 	          (a)     This Agreement may be amended by Seller and Purchaser with the prior written consent of the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default shall not have occurred and be continuing) but without the consent of the Trust Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee, the
 Certificateholder or any of the Noteholders (i) to cure any ambiguity or (ii) to correct any provisions in this Agreement; provided, however, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer and the Trust
 Collateral Agent, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Noteholder or, if an Insurer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Insurer.



	 	 
	 	          (b)     This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by Seller and Purchaser, with the prior written consent of the Insurer (so long as an Insurer Default



13







Back to Contents

	 	shall not have occurred and be continuing) and with the consent of the Trust Collateral Agent and, if required, the Certificateholder and the Noteholders, in accordance with the Sale and Servicing Agreement, 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 Certificateholder or Noteholders; provided, however, the Seller provides the Trust Collateral Agent with an Opinion of Counsel, (which may be provided by the Seller’s
 internal counsel) that no such amendment shall increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on Receivables or distributions that shall be required to be made on any Note or Certificate; provided further that if an
 Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, such amendment shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Insurer.



	 	 
	 	          (c)     Prior to the execution of any such amendment or consent, Seller shall have furnished written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Rating Agency.



	 	 
	 	          (d)     It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholder or Noteholders pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of
 obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholder or Noteholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Trust Collateral Agent may prescribe, including the establishment of record dates. The consent of a
 Holder of a Certificate or a Note given pursuant to this Section or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and on all future Holders of such Certificate or Note and of any Certificate or Note issued upon the transfer thereof
 or in exchange thereof or in lieu thereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate or Note.

 by AmeriCredit, AFS Funding Trust shall have good and indefeasible title to and will be the sole owner of such Receivables, free of any Lien. No Dealer or Third-Party Lender has a participation in, or other right to receive, proceeds of any Receivable. AmeriCredit has not taken any
 action to convey any right to any Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments received under the related Insurance Policies or the related Dealer Agreements, Auto Loan Purchase and Sale Agreements, Dealer Assignments, or Third-Party Lender Assignments or to
 payments due under such Receivables.




18.     Security Interest in Financed Vehicle.     Each Receivable created or shall create a valid, binding and enforceable first priority security interest in favor of AmeriCredit in the Financed Vehicle. The Lien Certificate for each Financed Vehicle shows, or if a new or replacement
 Lien Certificate is being applied for with respect to such Financed Vehicle the Lien Certificate will be received within 180 days of the Closing Date and will show, AmeriCredit named as the original secured party under each Receivable as the holder of a first priority security interest in
 such Financed Vehicle. With respect to each Receivable for which the Lien Certificate has not yet been returned from the Registrar of Titles, AmeriCredit has applied for or received written evidence from the related Dealer or Third-Party Lender that such Lien Certificate showing
 AmeriCredit as first lienholder has been applied for and AmeriCredit’s security interest has been validly assigned by AmeriCredit to AFS Funding Trust pursuant to this Agreement. This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the UCC) in the
 Receivables in favor of the Purchaser, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Seller. Immediately after the sale, transfer and assignment thereof by AmeriCredit to AFS Funding Trust, each Receivable
 will be secured by an enforceable and perfected first priority security interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor of AFS Funding Trust as secured party, which security interest is 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 lien for taxes, labor or materials affecting a Financed Vehicle). As of the Cutoff Date there were no Liens or claims

for taxes, work, labor or materials affecting a Financed Vehicle which are or may be Liens prior or equal to the Liens of the related Receivable.


19.     All Filings Made.     All filings (including, without limitation, UCC filings (including, without limitation, the filing by the Seller of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the State of Delaware under applicable law in order to perfect the security
 interest in the Receivables granted to the Purchaser hereunder)) required to be made by any Person and actions required to be taken or performed by any Person in any jurisdiction to give the Trust and the Trust Collateral Agent a first priority perfected lien on, or ownership interest in, the
 Receivables and the proceeds thereof and the Other Conveyed Property have been made, taken or performed.




20.     No Impairment.     AmeriCredit has not done anything to convey any right to any Person that would result in such Person having a right to payments due under the Receivable or otherwise to impair the rights of the Trust, the Insurer, the Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent and
 the Noteholders in any Receivable or the proceeds thereof. Other than the security interest granted to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and except any other security interests that have been fully released and discharged as of the Closing Date, the Seller has not pledged, assigned,
 sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Receivables. The Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Receivables other than any financing statement
 relating to the security interest granted to the Purchaser hereunder or that has been terminated. The Seller is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against it.




21.     Receivable Not Assumable.     No Receivable is assumable by another Person in a manner which would release the Obligor thereof from such Obligor’s obligations to AmeriCredit with respect to such Receivable.




22.     No Defenses.     No Receivable is subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense and no such right has been asserted or threatened with respect to any Receivable.




23.     No Default.     There has been no default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable (other than payment delinquencies of not more than 30 days) and no condition exists or event has occurred and is continuing that with notice, the
 lapse of time or both would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under the terms of any Receivable, and there has been no waiver of any of the foregoing. As of the Cutoff Date no Financed Vehicle had been repossessed.




24.     Insurance.     At the time of origination of a Receivable by AmeriCredit or a purchase of a Receivable by AmeriCredit from a Dealer or Third-Party Lender, each Financed Vehicle is required to be covered by a comprehensive and collision insurance policy (i) in an amount at
 least equal to the lesser of (a) its maximum insurable value or (b) the principal amount due from the Obligor under the related Receivable, (ii) naming AmeriCredit as loss payee and (iii) insuring against loss and damage due to fire, theft, transportation, collision and other risks generally
 covered by comprehensive and collision coverage. Each Receivable requires the Obligor to maintain physical loss and damage insurance, naming AmeriCredit and its successors

and assigns as additional insured parties, and each Receivable permits the holder thereof to obtain physical loss and damage insurance at the expense of the Obligor if the Obligor fails to do so. No Financed Vehicle is insured under a policy of Force-Placed Insurance on the Cutoff Date.


25.     Past Due.     At the Cutoff Date no Receivable was more than 30 days past due.




26.     Remaining Principal Balance.     At the Cutoff Date the Principal Balance of each Receivable set forth in the Schedules of Receivables is true and accurate in all material respect.

 Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle.
