Security prior in right to all liens, claims, rights or interests other than

hereunder, the Seller pledges the Collateral to the Collateral Agent for the
benefit of Financial Security, subject to the provisions hereof.

obligations to be provided in respect of amounts paid by Financial Security

material adverse effect upon the Trust; the Trust holds all material licenses,
certificates and permits from all governmental authorities necessary for the
conduct of its business as presently conducted.

                  (b)      Power and Authority. The Trust has all necessary

Financial Security expressly for use therein.

                  (h)      Incorporation of Representations and Warranties. All

Collateral Agent, subject, to the extent set forth in Section 5.01(d) hereof, to
the interest of the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Indenture Property and
the Noteholders; at such time as it is received by the Master Servicer and until

warranties of WFS set forth in the Underwriting Agreement and by WFS as Master
Servicer set forth in Section 4.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement are (in
each case) true and correct as if set forth herein.

acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease substantially all the assets of WFS as
an entirety, can lawfully perform the obligations of WFS hereunder and executes
and delivers to the Owner Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and Financial Security, which contains an

full without any requirement on the part of Financial Security to seek
reimbursement from any other sources of indemnity therefor or to allocate
expenses to other transactions benefiting therefrom, and all such amounts shall
be payable in the priority and in the manner provided in the Sale and Servicing

obligations of WFSRC2 incurred in accordance with WFSRC2's certificate of
incorporation and all financing documents to which WFSRC2 is a party and (b) any

documents to which WFSRC2 is a party. In addition, no amount owing by WFSRC2
hereunder in excess of the liabilities that it is required to pay in accordance
with the preceding sentence shall constitute a "claim" (as defined in Section
101(5) of the

                                       38

                           (v)      the violation by Westcorp or any Affiliate
         thereof of any federal or state laws, rules or regulations relating to
         the maximum amount of interest permitted to be received on account of
         the loan of money or with respect to the Contracts;

                           (vi)     the negligence or willful misconduct of
         Westcorp or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or
         agents;

                           (vii)    the breach by Westcorp of its obligations
         under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements;

                           (viii)   the breach by Westcorp of any representation
         or warranty on the part of Westcorp contained in or incorporated by
         reference in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or in
         any certificate furnished or delivered to Financial Security hereunder
         and thereunder;

                           (ix)     the use, ownership or operation by Westcorp,

                                       41

<PAGE>

                           (x)      the violation by WFSRC2 or the Trust of any
         of the provisions of (a) above caused by or at the direction of WFS or
         Westcorp, as the case may be.

                  (c)      If any action or proceeding (including any
governmental investigation) shall be brought or asserted against Financial
Security or any person controlling Financial Security (hereinafter collectively
referred to as a Financial Security Indemnified Party) in respect of which
indemnity may be sought from WFSRC2 pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(i) or (ii) or
Westcorp pursuant to Section 3.06(b)(i), (ii) or (x) (such Western Entity or
Western Entities, as the case may be, herein referred to as the Indemnifying
Western Entity), then Financial Security or such controlling person shall give
the Indemnifying Western Entity written or telegraphic notice of such action or
claim reasonably promptly after receipt of written notice thereof. The
Indemnifying Western Entity shall be entitled to participate in the defense of
any such action or claim in reasonable cooperation with, and with the reasonable
cooperation of, the Financial Security Indemnified Party. The Financial Security
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such
action in addition to the counsel of the Indemnifying Western Entity, but fees
and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of the Financial Security
Indemnified Party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the Financial Security
Indemnified Party has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Western
Entity or (2) the Indemnifying Western Entity has not in fact employed counsel
to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving
notice of the commencement of the action or (3) the named parties to any such
action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the
Indemnifying Western Entity on the one hand and the Financial Security
Indemnified Party on the other hand, and the Financial Security Indemnified
Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal
defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those
available to the Indemnifying Western Entity (it being understood, however, that
the Indemnifying Western Entity shall not, in connection with any one such
action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or
proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations
or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than
one separate firm of attorneys at any time for the Financial Security
Indemnified Party, which firm shall be designated in writing by the Financial
Security Indemnified Party), in each of which cases the fees and expenses of
counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnifying Western Entity and all such
fees and expenses will be reimbursed promptly as they are incurred. No
settlement of any such claim or action shall be entered into without the consent
of Financial Security on the one hand and the Indemnifying Western Entity who is
subject to such claim or action on the other hand. Any failure by Financial
Security to comply with the provisions of this Section shall relieve the
Indemnifying Western Entity of liability only if substantially prejudicial to
the position of the Indemnifying Western Entity and then only to the extent of
such prejudice.

                  (d)      The rights to indemnification provided for in this
Section 3.06 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall survive
until the statute of limitations has run on any causes of action that arise from
these provisions and until all suits filed as a result thereof have been finally
concluded.

                  (e)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, the obligations of WFSRC2 under this Section 3.06 are solely the
corporate obligations of WFSRC2, and shall be payable by WFSRC2, solely as
provided in this Section 3.06. WFSRC2 shall only be required to pay (a) any
fees, expenses, indemnities or other liabilities that it may incur under this
Section 3.06 (i) from funds available pursuant to, and in accordance with, the
payment priorities set forth in Section 5.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement
and (ii) to the extent WFSRC2 has additional funds available (other than funds
described in the preceding clause (i)) that would be in excess of amounts that
would be necessary to pay the debt and other obligations of WFSRC2 incurred in
accordance with WFSRC2's certificate of incorporation and all financing
documents to which WFSRC2 is a party and (b) any expenses, indemnities or other
liabilities that it may incur under this Section 3.06 (i) from funds available
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the payment priorities set forth in Section
5.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and (ii) only to the extent it receives
additional funds designated for such purposes or to the extent it has additional
funds available (other than funds described in the preceding clause (i)) that
would be in excess of amounts that would be necessary to pay the debt and other
obligations of WFSRC2 incurred in accordance with WFSRC2's certificate of
incorporation and all financing documents to which WFSRC2 is a party. The
agreement set forth in the preceding sentence shall constitute a subordination
agreement for purposes of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, no
amount owing by WFSRC2 hereunder in excess of the liabilities that it is
required to pay in accordance with the preceding sentence shall constitute a
"claim" (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against it. No
recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing hereunder or for the
payment of any fee hereunder or any other obligation of, or claim against,
WFSRC2 arising out of or based upon this Section 3.06, against any stockholder,
employee, officer, agent, director or authorized person of WFSRC2 or Affiliate
thereof; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve any such person
or entity of any liability they might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent
actions or omissions taken by them.

                  Section 3.07. Liability Absolute. The obligations of each of
WFSRC2, Westcorp, WFS and the Trust hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional
and irrevocable and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without
limitation, the following circumstances:

                  (a)      any lack of validity or enforceability of the Policy
or all or any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Transaction
Agreements;

                  (b)      any amendment or waiver of or any consent to
departure from all or any provision of this Agreement or of any other
Transaction Agreement;

                  (c)      the existence of any claim, setoff, defense,
reduction, abatement or other right which either Western Entity may have at any
time against Financial Security or any other Person;

                                       43

<PAGE>

                  (d)      any statement, instrument of assignment or any other
document presented to Financial Security in connection with the Policy proving
to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever;

                  (e)      payment by Financial Security under the Policy
against presentation of a certificate or other document which does not comply
with the terms of the Policy, provided that such payment shall not have been the
result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Financial Security;

                  (f)      any nonapplication or misapplication by the Indenture
Trustee, the Owner Trustee, or any paying agent of the proceeds of the demand
for payment under the Policy;

                  (g)      the failure of WFSRC2, or, indirectly, WFS, to
receive the proceeds of the sale of the Notes; or

                  (h)      any other circumstance or happening whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, provided that such circumstance
or happening shall not have been the result of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Financial Security.

                  Section 3.08. Liability of Financial Security. Neither
Financial Security nor any of its officers, directors or employees shall be
liable or responsible for (a) the unauthorized use which may be made of the
Policy by the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee or any unauthorized acts or
omissions of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in connection with the
Policy; or (b) the validity, sufficiency, accuracy or genuineness of documents,
or of any endorsement(s) thereto, even if such documents should in fact prove to
be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; or (c)
any acts or omissions to act of the Indenture Trustee in connection with the
Collateral other than such acts or omissions that are at the direction of
Financial Security. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing,
Financial Security (or its Fiscal Agent) may accept documents that appear on
their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation.
Each of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each Western Entity
acknowledges that it has not relied on any information or materials provided by
Financial Security in connection with the issuance of the Notes and the
Certificates except for the information furnished in writing by Financial
Security for inclusion in the Registration Statement. Each of them also
acknowledges that it has not relied on any investigation by Financial Security
of the Collateral or of the financial statements or other financial statistical
data used in connection with the issuance of the Notes and Certificates.

                  Section 3.09. Payment of Costs, Fees and Expenses.

                  (a)      WFSRC2 shall pay on demand any and all charges, fees,
costs and expenses which Financial Security may reasonably pay or incur,
including, but not limited to, attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, in
connection with (A) the enforcement, defense or preservation of any rights in
respect of any of this Agreement or

                                       44

<PAGE>

any other Transaction Agreements, including defending, monitoring or
participating in any litigation or proceeding (including any bankruptcy
proceeding in respect of any transaction participant or any Affiliate thereof)
relating to any of the Transaction Agreements and this Agreement, any party to
any of the Transaction Agreements and this Agreement, or the transaction, (B)
any amendment, waiver or other action with respect to, or related to, any
Transaction Agreements and this Agreement whether or not executed or completed
or (C) any review or approval by Financial Security in connection with the
delivery of any additional or substitute collateral under any of the Transaction
Agreements and this Agreement. In addition, WFSRC2 shall reimburse Financial
Security for its expenses, including, without limitation, legal fees and
disbursements, incurred in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and
the Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the initial transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, it being understood that WFSRC2's obligations
to reimburse Financial Security pursuant to this sentence shall be limited in
the aggregate to the dollar amount set forth in the letter agreement between the
Seller and Financial Security referred to in the definition of "Premium" set
forth herein, plus rating agency fees, to the extent paid by Financial Security.

                  (b)      Westcorp shall pay on demand any and all charges,
fees, costs and expenses not paid by WFSRC2 which Financial Security may
reasonably pay or incur, including, but not limited to, attorneys' and
accountants' fees and expenses, in connection with (A) the enforcement, defense
or preservation of any rights in respect of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Agreements, including defending, monitoring or participating in any
litigation or proceeding (including any bankruptcy proceeding in respect of any
transaction participant or any Affiliate thereof) relating to this Agreement or
any other Transaction Agreements, any party to any of the Transaction Agreements
and this Agreement, or the transaction, (B) any amendment, waiver or other
action with respect to, or related to, this Agreement or any other Transaction
Agreements, whether or not executed or completed or (C) any review or approval
by Financial Security in connection with the delivery of any additional or
substitute collateral under any of the Transaction Agreements and this
Agreement.

                  Section 3.10. Payment Procedure. All payments made pursuant to
this Agreement shall be made to Financial Security in lawful currency of the
United States of America and in one-day clearing-house funds at Financial
Security's Notice Address before 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date when
due.

                  Section 3.11. Business Days. In any case where the date of any
payment to Financial Security or the expiration of any time period hereunder
occurs on a day which is not a Business Day, then such payment may be made, or
such expiration shall occur, on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on the day of maturity or expiration of such period,
except that interest shall continue to accrue for the period after such date to
the next Business Day.

                  Section 3.12. Waivers and Consents by Seller, Westcorp and
WFS. WFSRC2, WFS, Westcorp and any and all others who are now or may become
liable for all or part of the obligations of WFSRC2, Westcorp and WFS under this
Agreement (all

                                       45

<PAGE>

of the foregoing being referred to collectively in this Section as the
"Obligors") agree to be bound by this Agreement and (a) waive and renounce any
and all redemption and exemption rights and the benefit of all valuation and

extension or renewal hereof; (b) waive presentment and demand for payment,
notices of nonpayment and of dishonor, protest of dishonor and notice of
protest; (c) waive all notices in connection with the delivery and acceptance
hereof and all other notices in connection with the performance, default or
enforcement of the payment hereof except as required by this Agreement; (d)
waive any and all lack of diligence and delays in the enforcement of the payment
hereof; (e) agree that the liability of each of the Obligors shall be
unconditional and without regard to the liability of any other person or entity
for the payment hereof and shall not in any manner be affected by any indulgence
or forbearance granted or consented to by Financial Security with respect
hereto; (f) consent to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers or
modifications that may be granted by Financial Security with respect to the
payment or other provisions hereof, and to the release of any security at any
time given for the payment hereof, or any part thereof, with or without
substitution, and to the release of any person or entity liable for the payment
hereof; and (g) consent to the addition of any and all other makers, endorsers,
guarantors and other obligors for the payment hereof, and to the acceptance of
any and all other security for the payment hereof or thereof, and agree that the
addition of any such obligors or security shall not affect the liability of any
of the Obligors for the payment hereof.

                  Section 3.13. Purchase of Replacement Swap Agreement. Upon the
occurrence of (i) an Event of Default or Termination Event under the Swap
Agreement and (ii) the failure of the Swap Counterparty to pay when due any
amounts payable by the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement or
otherwise to perform under the Swap Agreement, Financial Security shall have the
right, but no obligation, to purchase, in Financial Security's sole and absolute
discretion, a replacement swap agreement or agreements (collectively, the
"Replacement Swap Agreement") with a replacement swap provider or providers in
form and substance satisfactory to Financial Security, and the parties hereto
agree that they shall direct the Collateral Agent in writing to cause the Trust
to enter into such Replacement Swap Agreement; provided, however, that under the
Replacement Swap Agreement (a) the Swap Interest Rate shall not be lower than
the Swap Interest Rate under the Swap Agreement and (b) the aggregate Fixed
Amount shall not be greater than the Fixed Amount under the Swap Agreement,
provided further, however, that in connection with the purchase of each
replacement swap agreement that shall collectively constitute the Replacement
Swap Agreement, Financial Security shall, prior to such purchase, obtain quotes
from at least two potential replacement swap providers (each a "Potential
Replacement Swap Provider") and the parties hereto shall direct the Collateral
Agent in writing to cause the Trust to enter into such Replacement Swap
Agreement with the Potential Replacement Provider that quoted a less expensive
purchase price than the other Potential Replacement Swap Provider or, if
Financial Security shall obtain quotes from more than two Potential Replacement
Swap Providers, the least expensive purchase price of all the Potential
Replacement Swap Providers. For the purposes of this Section 3.13 the terms
"Event of Default", "Termination Event", "Swap Interest Rate" and "Fixed Amount"
shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Swap Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                              PLEDGE OF COLLATERAL

                  Section 4.01. Obligations Secured Hereby. The agreements
contained in this Article IV are made to provide for and secure repayment of the
following indebtedness and liabilities of WFSRC2 (such indebtedness and
liabilities being herein called the "Obligations") in the order of priority
indicated:

                           First, (i) the repayment of all amounts, if any,
         advanced or expended by the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as
         Collateral Agent, for the account of WFSRC2 hereunder, (ii) the payment
         of all reasonable costs and expenses at any time and from time to time
         incurred by the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as Collateral Agent,
         in connection with the administration or enforcement of this Agreement
         or any related document (including, without limitation, the fees and
         out-of-pocket expenses of counsel employed by the Collateral Agent in
         connection therewith) and (iii) the payment of all indemnities at any
         time and from time to time payable hereunder to the Collateral Agent,
         by WFSRC2, and

                           Second, (i) the repayment of all amounts advanced or
         paid by Financial Security under the Policy pursuant to this Agreement
         and (ii) the payment of any accrued but unpaid installments of the
         Premium and all costs and expenses at any time and from time to time
         incurred by Financial Security in connection with the administration or
         enforcement of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or any
         related document (including, without limitation, the fees and
         out-of-pocket expenses of counsel employed by Financial Security in
         connection therewith) and under or in connection with this Agreement
         and the Policy.

                  Section 4.02. Granting Clause. In order to secure and to
provide for the repayment of the Obligations, WFSRC2 hereby assigns, conveys,
transfers, delivers and sets over unto the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent
for Financial Security, and hereby grants the Collateral Agent, as collateral
agent for Financial Security, a security interest in all of its right, title and
interest in the Collateral owned by it, to have and to hold said Collateral unto
the Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, forever in pledge and trust
for the benefit and security of Financial Security, subject to the terms and
provisions set forth in Article V of this Agreement. The assignment and security
interest so granted to the Collateral Agent shall not relieve WFSRC2 from the
performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on WFSRC2's part to be
performed or observed under or in connection with this Agreement or any other
Transaction Agreement, or impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or
Financial Security to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or
agreement on WFSRC2's part to be so performed or observed or impose any
liability on the Collateral Agent or Financial Security for any act or omission
on the part of WFSRC2 relative thereto or for any breach of any representation
or warranty on the part of WFSRC2 contained therein, or made in connection
therewith, and WFSRC2 hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the

                                       47

<PAGE>

Collateral Agent and Financial Security from and against any and all losses,
liabilities (including liabilities for penalties), claims, demands, actions,
suits, judgments, costs and expenses arising out of or resulting from the
assignment and security interest granted hereby by virtue of any act or omission
on the part of WFSRC2 (other than an act or omission on the part of such party
pursuant to or in accordance with an express direction from the Collateral Agent
or Financial Security), including, without limitation, the reasonable costs,
expenses and disbursements (including attorneys' fees) incurred by the
Collateral Agent or Financial Security in enforcing this Agreement or any other
Transaction Agreement. The assignment and security interest granted to the
Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section shall become effective prior to the
effectiveness of the Seller Assignments, and the assignment by WFSRC2 to the
Trust under Section 2.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the assignment
by the Trust to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture and, upon the
effectiveness of such assignments and security interest, such assignment and
security interest shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.01(d) hereof.

                  Section 4.03. Release of Collateral. Financial Security hereby
instructs the Collateral Agent that, at such time as a Contract is reconveyed by
the Trust pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the
Collateral Agent shall release such Contract from the lien of the security
interest created hereby upon receipt by Financial Security and the Collateral
Agent of a Certificate of the Seller that the conditions set forth in Section
9.01 with respect to the Optional Purchase under that Section 9.01 of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement have been satisfied.

                            INTERCREDITOR PROVISIONS

                  Section 5.01. Financial Security's Direction Upon Servicer
Default.

                  (a)      So long as no Insurer Insolvency has occurred and no
Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing, if there exists any Servicer
Default pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, Financial
Security shall, notwithstanding the provisions of Article VIII of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, have the sole right to direct the Indenture Trustee as to
any and all actions to be taken under the Indenture or the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, as applicable, including, without limitation, all actions with
respect to (i) the giving of directions to the Master Servicer and any
Subservicer with respect to the servicing of the Contracts and any of the
respective obligations of WFSRC2 under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (ii)
the exercise of all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims against any
obligor under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and (iii) the giving or
withholding of all consents, requests, notices, directions, approvals,
extensions or waivers under or with respect to the Indenture or the Sale and
Servicing Agreement, as applicable, in each case to the same extent as the
Noteholders or the Certificateholders might do but for the collateral assignment
and security interests granted to Financial Security hereunder, provided,
however, that the Indenture Trustee, without obtaining the consent or direction
of Financial Security, may at all times take any action permitted or required to
be taken by it

                                       48

<PAGE>

under the terms of the Indenture or as a fiduciary in order to protect the
Indenture Trustee's, the Noteholders' and the Certificateholders' interest in
the Trust Estate or to preserve any available claims against WFSRC2 on behalf of
the Noteholders and the Certificateholders. Financial Security shall indemnify
the Indenture Trustee in full for any costs and expenses incurred (including the
reasonable fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee's counsel) in connection
with the Indenture Trustee's due performance of directions pursuant to this
subsection (a) or in connection with any inaction of the Indenture Trustee as a
result of a direction from Financial Security at any time when Financial
Security holds the right to direct the Indenture Trustee as provided for in this
paragraph (a).

                  (b)      Financial Security shall not unreasonably withhold
any consent required of it under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the
Indenture, as applicable, and shall promptly respond when any approval or
consent is required of it under the Sale or Servicing Agreement and the
Indenture, as applicable.

                  (c)      Notwithstanding any provision of the Sale and
Servicing Agreement or the Indenture, as applicable, to the contrary, so long as
no Insurer Insolvency has occurred and no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing,

                           (i)      without the prior written consent of
         Financial Security, the Owner Trustee shall not (A) terminate the
         rights and powers of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 8.01 of
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement or (B) waive any Servicer Default
         thereunder;

                           (ii)     without the prior written consent of
         Financial Security, (A) neither WFSRC2 nor the Trust shall cause to be
         appointed any successor Indenture Trustee, and, (B) neither the
         Indenture Trustee nor the Administrator shall cause to be appointed any
         Co-Trustee under the Indenture;

                           (iii)    without the prior written consent of
         Financial Security, none of WFSRC2, Westcorp, WFS, the Owner Trustee or
         the Indenture Trustee shall appoint new Independent Accountants;

                           (iv)     without the prior written consent of
         Financial Security, none of WFSRC2, Westcorp, WFS, the Owner Trustee or
         the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the amendment of or supplement
         to any of the Transaction Agreements; and

                           (v)      Financial Security shall have the power to
         direct the actions to be taken by WFSRC2 pursuant to Section 3.02 of
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

                  (d)      Financial Security agrees that, until such time that
all required payments shall have been made with respect to the Notes, the
security interest in the Collateral granted to Financial Security under this
Agreement shall be junior and subordinate to the interest of the Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders. Financial Security further agrees that, until such
time that all required payments shall have been

                                       49

<PAGE>

made with respect to the Notes, neither Financial Security nor any Person acting
on its behalf may take any action to foreclose or otherwise pursue remedies with
respect to the Collateral other than in accordance with the Sale and Servicing
Agreement and the Indenture.

                  Section 5.02. Financial Security's Direction of Insolvency
Proceedings. Financial Security shall have the rights provided for in Section
8.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                         THE COLLATERAL AGENT; REMEDIES

                  Section 6.01. Appointment and Powers of Collateral Agent.
Financial Security hereby appoints Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as the
Collateral Agent, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas accepts such
appointment hereunder, and Financial Security hereby authorizes the Collateral
Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such rights, remedies,
powers and privileges hereunder as Financial Security may direct and as are
specifically authorized to be exercised by the Collateral Agent by the terms
hereof, together with such rights, remedies, powers and privileges as are
reasonably incidental thereto. The Collateral Agent may execute any of its
duties as agent hereunder by or through agents or employees and shall be
entitled to retain counsel and to act in reliance upon the advice of such
counsel concerning all matters pertaining to the agencies hereby created and its
duties hereunder, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of counsel selected by
it. The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those
expressly set forth in this Agreement. The duties of the Collateral Agent shall
be mechanical and administrative in nature. The Collateral Agent shall not have
by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship. Nothing in this Agreement,
express or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon
the Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as
expressly set forth herein. Neither the Collateral Agent nor Financial Security,
nor any of its or their respective directors, officers or employees, shall be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder, or
in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct; nor shall the Collateral Agent or Financial Security be responsible
for the validity, effectiveness, value, sufficiency or enforceability against
WFSRC2 of this Agreement or any other document furnished pursuant hereto or in
connection herewith, or of the Collateral (or any part thereof). The Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument, paper or other
document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or
sent by the proper Person or Persons.

                  Section 6.02. Successor Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent
acting hereunder at any time may resign by an instrument in writing addressed
and delivered to WFSRC2 and Financial Security. If the Collateral Agent is also
the Indenture Trustee and, as such, determines that it has a conflicting
interest on account of its acting as Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent
shall eliminate such conflicting interest by

                                       50

<PAGE>

resigning as Collateral Agent hereunder rather than resigning as Indenture
Trustee. Financial Security shall appoint a successor to the Collateral Agent
upon any such resignation by an instrument of substitution complying with the
requirements of applicable law, or, in the absence of any such requirements,
without formality other than appointment and designation in writing, a copy of
which instrument or writing shall be sent to WFSRC2; provided, however, that the
validity of any such appointment shall not be impaired or affected by any
failure to give any such notice to WFSRC2 or by any defect therein. Upon the
making and acceptance of such appointment, the execution and delivery by such
successor Collateral Agent of a ratifying instrument pursuant to which such
successor Collateral Agent agrees to assume the duties and obligations imposed
on the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement, and the delivery to such
successor Collateral Agent of the Collateral and related documents then held by
the retiring Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the estate, rights, powers, remedies,
privileges, immunities, indemnities, duties and obligations hereby granted to or
conferred or imposed upon the Collateral Agent named herein, and one such
appointment and designation shall not exhaust the right to appoint and designate
further successor Collateral Agents hereunder. No Collateral Agent shall be
discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder until the Collateral and
related documents then held by such Collateral Agent shall have been transferred
and delivered to the successor Collateral Agent and such retiring Collateral
Agent shall have executed and delivered to the successor Collateral Agent
appropriate instruments establishing the successor Collateral Agent as the
record holder of all liens and security interests in favor of Financial Security
in the Collateral and transferring to such successor Collateral Agent all power
given to it by the Indenture Trustee to act as attorney-in-fact of the Indenture
Trustee for purposes of this Agreement. Each such successor Collateral Agent
shall provide WFSRC2 and Financial Security with its address (which shall
thereupon become such successor Collateral Agent's Notice Address for purposes
of this Agreement), and its telephone, Telex, TWX and telecopier numbers, to be
used for purposes of Section 7.02 hereof, in a notice complying with the terms
of said Section.

                  Section 6.03. Remedies Available to Collateral Agent.

                  (a)      To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and
subject to Article V hereof, if the Master Servicer shall have been terminated
upon the occurrence of any Servicer Default pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement, then in every such case, the Collateral Agent may, to
the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Article V hereof, exercise
the following rights, privileges and remedies:

                           (i)      Collection of the Collateral. The Collateral
         Agent shall have the right to collect all proceeds of the Collateral,
         to pay all expenses of such collection, including the reasonable
         expenses and compensation of the Collateral Agent, its agents and
         attorneys, and to apply the remainder of the moneys so received as
         provided herein.

                                       51

<PAGE>

                           (ii)     Sale of Collateral. The Collateral Agent may
         sell, or cause to be sold, the Collateral or any part thereof or
         interest therein, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash or
         at private sale or auction with or without demand, advertisement or
         notice of the date, time or place of sale or any adjournment thereof,
         upon such terms as Financial Security may approve, and upon such sale
         the Collateral Agent shall make and deliver to the purchaser or
         purchasers an appropriate instrument or instruments of transfer. The
         Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful
         attorney of the Indenture Trustee, in its name and stead, to make all
         necessary transfers of property thus sold; and for that purpose it may
         execute all necessary instruments of transfer, and may substitute one
         or more Persons with like power, the Indenture Trustee hereby ratifying
         and confirming all that its said attorney, or such substitute or
         substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, if so
         requested by the Collateral Agent or any purchaser of the Collateral or
         any part thereof, the Indenture Trustee shall ratify and confirm any
         such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to the Collateral
         Agent or such purchaser all proper instruments of transfer and releases
         as may be designated in any such request. The Collateral Agent may
         proceed at law or in equity to foreclose the lien of this Agreement
         against all or any part of the Collateral and to have the same sold
         under the judgment or decree of a court having jurisdiction or as
         otherwise may be required or permitted by law. Upon any such sale,
         whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of
         judicial proceedings, any Noteholder, Certificateholder or Financial
         Security may bid for and purchase the Collateral or any part thereof
         and, upon compliance with the terms of such sale, may hold, retain,
         possess or dispose of such property in its or their own absolute right
         without accountability; and any purchaser at any such sale may, in
         paying the purchase money, turn in any of the Notes or Certificates, as
         applicable, in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall, upon
         distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon. Said
         Notes or Certificates, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be
         less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Holders
         thereof after being properly stamped to show partial payment. Upon any
         sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of
         judicial proceedings, a receipt of the Collateral Agent, or of the
         officer making such sale under judicial proceedings, shall be a
         sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale for
         its or their purchase money, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not
         be obliged to see to the application thereof. Any such sale, whether
         under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial
         proceedings, shall bind the Collateral Agent, WFSRC2, the Indenture
         Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, shall operate to
         divest all right, title and interest whatsoever, either at law or in
         equity, of each of them in and to the property sold, and shall be a
         perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against each of them and
         their successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming
         through or under them.

                           (iii)    Other Actions. The Collateral Agent shall
         have the right to cause any other action permitted at law or in equity
         to be initiated and prosecuted to enforce this Agreement and any rights
         granted by virtue of the pledge of the Collateral hereunder and to
         collect or enforce the Notes and the Certificates.

                  Section 6.04. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws; Marshalling of
Assets. Each of WFSRC2, the Owner Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee (in each
case to the extent permitted by applicable law) covenants that it will not at
any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the
benefit or advantage of, any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or
redemption law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in order
to prevent or hinder the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of
the Collateral or any part thereof, or the possession thereof by any purchaser
at any sale under this Article; and each of WFSRC2 and the Indenture Trustee (in
each case to the extent permitted by applicable law), for itself and all who may
claim under it, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws, and covenants that
none of them will hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein
granted to the Collateral Agent, but will suffer and permit the execution of
every such power as though no such law had been enacted. Each of WFSRC2, the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, for itself and all who may claim under
it, waives (in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law) all right to
have the Collateral marshalled upon any foreclosure hereof, and agrees that any
court having jurisdiction to foreclose this Agreement may order the sale of the
Collateral as an entirety without the marshalling thereof.

                  Section 6.05. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the
Collateral Agent has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy
under this Agreement, and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and
in every such case WFSRC2, the Collateral Agent and the Indenture Trustee shall,
subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and
respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and
remedies of the Collateral Agent shall continue as though no such proceeding had
been instituted.

                  Section 6.06. Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Collateral Agent is intended to be exclusive
of any other right or remedy, and every right shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or otherwise, and each
and every right, power and remedy, whether specifically herein given or
otherwise existing, may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such
order as may be deemed expedient by the Collateral Agent, and the exercise or
the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to
be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other
right, power or remedy.

                  Section 6.07. Control by Financial Security. So long as no
Insurer Insolvency has occurred and no Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, Financial Security shall, upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of any of the Servicer Defaults described in Section 8.01 of the
Sale and Servicing Agreement, subject to Article V hereof, have the right to
direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Collateral Agent hereunder or otherwise or exercising any trust
or power conferred upon the Collateral Agent hereunder provided that:

                                       53

<PAGE>

                           (1)      such direction shall not be in conflict with
         any rule of law or with this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing
         Agreement; and

                           (2)      such Collateral Agent may take any other
         action deemed proper by such Collateral Agent that is not inconsistent
         with such direction.

                  Section 6.08. Proceeds Agent as Custodian and Bailee of
Collateral Agent. In order to facilitate the making of payments under the
Contracts, such payments shall be deposited by the Master Servicer in the
Collection Account, and certain amounts in the Collection Account shall be
deposited in the Spread Account, in accordance with the Sale and Servicing
Agreement. The Proceeds Agent shall retain all proceeds deposited in the
Collection Account and the Spread Account as custodian and bailee of the
Collateral Agent for Financial Security. Financial Security hereby acknowledges
that the Proceeds Agent will also hold all such proceeds for the benefit of the
Noteholders and the Certificateholders. Solely for purposes of perfection under
Section 9-313(c) of the UCC, Financial Security and the Proceeds Agent hereby
acknowledge that the Proceeds Agent is acting as agent and bailee of the
Collateral Agent for Financial Security in holding such property in the
Collection Account and the Spread Account, and any other items constituting a
part of the Collateral which from time to time come into the possession of the
Proceeds Agent. It is intended that, by the Proceeds Agent's acceptance of such
custodianship and bailment pursuant to this Agreement, the Collateral Agent for
Financial Security, as secured party, will be deemed to have possession of such
Collateral, items, moneys and such other items for purposes of Section 9-313(c)
of the UCC.

                  Section 6.09. Indemnification of Collateral Agent. Financial
Security hereby indemnifies and holds the Collateral Agent harmless from and
against any and all judgments, claims, defenses, charges, losses, liabilities,
costs or expenses that the Collateral Agent may incur or that may be claimed
against the Collateral Agent by any Person by reason of any action taken, or any
failure to act, in connection with the duties and responsibilities of the
Collateral Agent under the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that
Financial Security shall not be required to indemnify the Collateral Agent
pursuant to this Section for any judgments, claims, defenses, charges, losses,
liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent caused by such Collateral Agent's
willful misconduct or gross negligence in any action taken, or any failure to
act, in connection with the duties and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent
under the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to
retain counsel in any action for which indemnification from Financial Security
is provided herein, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall
constitute costs and expenses of such Collateral Agent for which indemnification
from Financial Security is provided herein. The Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to submit a written request, with supporting documentation, for any
amounts expended by it for which indemnification is provided herein, as such
amounts are expended or on a periodic basis, as the Collateral Agent shall
choose, and Financial Security shall reimburse to the Collateral Agent the
amount specified in each such written request promptly. The indemnity agreements
contained in this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of the termination of this Agreement.

                  Section 6.10. Compensation Payable to Collateral Agent. In
consideration of the Collateral Agent's services to be rendered hereunder, the
Master Servicer agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of Financial
Security, the compensation set forth in a separate letter agreement dated as of
the date hereof between the Master Servicer and the Collateral Agent
incorporated herein by this reference. The Collateral Agent acknowledges,
notwithstanding the fact that, in the event that payments from the Collection
Account are insufficient, it shall look solely to the Master Servicer for
payment of its compensation hereunder, that the Collateral Agent is acting
solely as the agent for Financial Security for purposes of this Agreement.
Failure by the Master Servicer to pay the Collateral Agent's compensation
hereunder shall not cause this Agreement to be cancelled, void or voidable or
otherwise terminated or otherwise affect the Collateral Agent's obligations
hereunder.

                  Section 6.11. Protection of Financial Security's Security
Interest.

                  (a)      The Seller shall execute and file (or cause to be
executed and filed) such financing statements and execute and file (or cause to
be executed and filed) such continuation statements, against the Seller, all in
such manner and in such places as may be required by law (whether in the event
of a change of the Seller's name, identity or corporate structure, or otherwise)
fully to preserve, maintain, and protect the interest of Financial Security in
the Collateral. The Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Financial
Security file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as
provided above, as soon as available following such filing. Furthermore, to
effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, including for the
purpose of perfecting the security interest granted hereunder, the Trust, WFS
and the Seller, respectively, hereby authorize the filing by Financial Security,
on or prior to the Closing Date and any subsequent Closing Dates, an appropriate
Uniform Commercial Code financing statement in California or Nevada, as
appropriate, in form sufficient to assure that the Collateral Agent, as agent
for Financial Security, has a first priority perfected security interest in all
Collateral which can be perfected by the filing of a financing statement.

                  (b)      The Seller shall not change its name, identity, or
corporate structure in any manner that would, could, or might make any financing
statement or continuation statement filed by the Seller, in accordance with
paragraph (a) above, seriously misleading within the meaning of Section 9-507(c)
of the UCC, unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent and Financial
Security at least 60 days' prior written notice thereof.

                  (c)      The Seller shall give Financial Security at least 60
days' prior written notice of any relocation of the Seller's place of
incorporation if, as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of
the UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed
financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement. WFS shall
at all times maintain each office from which it shall service the Contracts, and
its principal executive office, within the United States of America.

                                       55

<PAGE>

                  (d)      The Seller agrees that, upon request by Financial
Security, such Seller shall furnish to Financial Security, within seven Business
Days, a list of the Contracts then held as part of the Trust, together with a
reconciliation of such list to the Schedule of Contracts and to each of the
Master Servicer's certificates furnished pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement before such request; provided, however, that Financial Security shall
not make such request more than four times in any calendar year. None of WFSRC2
or the Master Servicer shall grant a security interest in, or lien upon, or in
any manner encumber the Collateral, or release or waive the security interest
granted hereunder, except as contemplated herein.

                  (e)      In the event that either the Master Servicer or
WFSRC2 relocates its principal executive office, such party shall provide an
Opinion of Counsel to Financial Security, in form and substance satisfactory to
Financial Security, to the effect that upon the filing of any necessary
amendment to any previously filed financing or continuation statement or a new
financing statement, the Collateral Agent's security interest in the Collateral
granted hereunder shall remain valid and effective.

                  (f)      WFSRC2 shall be obligated to pay all reasonable costs
and disbursements in connection with the perfection and the maintenance of
perfection, as against all third parties, of Financial Security's right, and
security interest in and to the Collateral.

                  Section 6.12. Representations and Warranties of Indenture
Trustee. The representations and warranties of the Indenture Trustee, made as
Indenture Trustee, in Section 6.13 of the Indenture are incorporated by
reference herein as if set forth in full herein and Financial Security may rely
upon such representations and warranties.

                  Section 6.13. Certain Guaranties. Each of the Indenture
Trustee and the Master Servicer agrees that it (i) shall not treat any ledger
account or deposit account as an "Eligible Account" by reason of a guaranty of
the type described in clause (ii)(a) of the definition of "Eligible Account" in
the Sale and Servicing Agreement unless Financial Security shall have previously
approved in writing the form of such guaranty and (ii) shall not treat any
investment as an "Eligible Investment" by reason of a guaranty of the type
described in clause (iii)(b) or clause (vii) of the definition of "Eligible
Investments" in the Sale and Servicing Agreement unless Financial Security shall
have previously approved in writing the form of such guaranty.

                                EVENTS OF DEFAULT

                  Section 7.01. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the
following events shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder:

                  (a)      any demand for payment shall be made under the
Policy;

                  (b)      any representation or warranty made by the Trust,
WFSRC2, Westcorp or WFS under any of the Transaction Agreements, or in any
certificate or

                                       56

<PAGE>

report furnished under any of the Transaction Agreements, shall prove to be
untrue or incorrect in any material respect, provided however, a violation of
Section 3.01(b) or 4.06 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement as to which the
Seller or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, shall have in a timely manner
cured or repurchased the Contract as to each such Financed Vehicle pursuant to
Section 3.02 or 4.07, as the case may be, of the Sale and Servicing Agreement
shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder;

                  (c)      (i) the Trust, WFSRC2, Westcorp or WFS shall fail to
pay when due any amount payable by it under any of the Transaction Agreements

WFSRC2, Westcorp or WFS shall have asserted that any of the Transaction
Agreements to which it is a party is not valid and binding on the parties
thereto; or (iii) any court, governmental authority or agency having
jurisdiction over any of the parties to any of the Transaction Agreements or
property thereof shall find or rule that any material provision of any of the
Transaction Agreements is not valid and binding on the parties thereto; provided
that as a result of such finding or ruling the rights or remedies of Financial
Security under this Agreement shall have been directly or indirectly impaired in
any material respect;

                  (d)      the Trust, WFSRC2, Westcorp or WFS shall fail to
perform or observe any other covenant or agreement by it contained in any of the
Transaction Agreements (except for the obligations described under clause (b) or
(c) above) and such failure shall continue for a period of 30 days after written
notice given to the Trust and WFSRC2; provided that, if such failure shall be of
a nature that it cannot be cured within 30 days, such failure shall not
constitute an Event of Default hereunder if within such 30-day period such party
shall have given notice to Financial Security of corrective action it proposes
to take, which corrective action is agreed in writing by Financial Security to
be satisfactory and such party shall thereafter pursue such corrective action
diligently until such default is cured, and provided further as a result of such
failure the rights or remedies of Financial Security under this Agreement shall
have been directly or indirectly impaired in any material respect;

                  (e)      there shall have occurred an "Event of Default" as
specified in Section 5.01 of the Indenture;

                  (f)      the Trust shall adopt a voluntary plan of liquidation

assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall institute any proceeding
seeking to adjudicate the Trust insolvent or seeking a liquidation, or shall
take advantage of any insolvency act, or shall commence a case or other
proceeding naming the Trust as debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code or
similar law, domestic or foreign, or a case or other proceeding shall be
commenced against the Trust under the United States Bankruptcy Code or similar
law, domestic or foreign, or any proceeding shall be instituted against the
Trust seeking liquidation of its assets and the Trust shall fail to take
appropriate action resulting in the withdrawal or dismissal of such proceeding
within 30 days or there shall be appointed or the Trust consent to, or acquiesce
in, the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar
official in respect of the Trust or the whole or any substantial part of its

                                       57

<PAGE>

properties or assets, or the Trust shall take any corporate action in
furtherance of any of the foregoing or the Trust terminates pursuant to Section
9.02 of the Trust Agreement;

                  (g)      the Trust becomes taxable as an association (or
publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal or state
income tax purposes;

                  (h)      on any Distribution Date, the sum of Net Collections
with respect to such Distribution Date and the amounts available in the Spread

pursuant to clauses (i) through (v) of Section 5.05(a) of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement;

                  (i)      the Trust, WFSRC2 or WFS shall fail to deliver to
Financial Security within 30 days of the Closing Date an "agreed upon
procedures" letter in a form acceptable to Financial Security from a firm of
nationally-recognized independent certified public accountants with respect to

                  (a)      Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Financial
Security may exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies set forth
below:

                           (i)      declare all indebtedness of every type or
         description owed by the Trust, WFSRC2, Westcorp or WFS to Financial
         Security, including, without limitation, the entire outstanding balance
         of further installments of the Premium, to be immediately due and
         payable, and shall there upon be immediately due and payable; and

                           (ii)     the Collateral Agent, subject to Article V
         hereof, shall have the right to take any action or initiate any
         proceeding at law or equity available to it to enforce the terms of
         this Agreement.

                  (b)      Financial Security shall have the right, to be
exercised in its complete discretion, to waive any Event of Default hereunder,
by a writing setting forth terms, conditions, and extent of such waiver signed
by Financial Security and delivered to an Authorized Officer of WFSRC2. Unless
such writing expressly provides to the contrary, any waiver so granted shall
extend only to the specific event or occurrence that gave rise to the Event of
Default so waived and not to any other similar event or occurrence that occurs
subsequent to the date of such waiver.

                  (c)      Unless otherwise expressly provided, no remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved is intended to be exclusive of any other available
remedy, but each remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to other
remedies given under the

                                       58

<PAGE>

Transaction Agreements or existing at law or in equity. No delay or failure to
exercise any right or power accruing under any Transaction Agreements upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default or otherwise shall impair any such right or
power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power
may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In
order to entitle Financial Security to exercise any remedy reserved to Financial
Security in this Article, it shall not be necessary to give any notice.

and on behalf of Financial Security, the Trust, the Indenture Trustee and

in effect until the later of (a) the date on which Financial Security has no
further liability under the Policy or (b) the date on which each Western Entity
shall have paid or caused to be paid to Financial Security all amounts to be
paid by such Western Entity hereunder.

                  Section 8.06. Assignments; Third-Party Rights; Reinsurance.

                  (a)      This Agreement shall be a continuing obligation of
the parties hereto and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither
WFSRC2, Westcorp, WFS, nor the Collateral Agent may assign its rights or
obligations under this Agreement, or delegate any of its duties hereunder,
without the prior written consent of Financial Security. Any assignment made in
violation of this Agreement shall be null and void.

                  (b)      Financial Security shall have the right to give
participations in its rights under this Agreement and to enter into contracts of
reinsurance with respect to the Policy upon such terms and conditions as
Financial Security may in its discretion determine; provided, however, that no
such participation or reinsurance agreement or arrangement shall relieve
Financial Security of any of its obligations hereunder or under the Policy and
provided further that Financial Security shall reimburse WFSRC2, Westcorp or
WFS, as the case may be, for any expense incurred by such Western Entity in
connection with the giving by Financial Security of participations or the
entering into such contracts of reinsurance.

                  (c)      In addition, Financial Security shall be entitled to
assign or pledge to any bank or other lender providing liquidity or credit with
respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements or this
Agreement or the obligations of Financial Security in connection therewith any
rights of Financial Security under the Transaction Agreements or this Agreement
or with respect to any real or personal property or other interests pledged to
Financial Security, or in which Financial Security has a security interest, in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements or
this Agreement; provided that Financial Security shall reimburse WFSRC2,
Westcorp or WFS, as the case may be, for any expense incurred by such Western
Entity in connection with the making by Financial Security of any such
assignment or pledge.

                  (d)      Except as provided herein with respect to
participants and reinsurers, nothing in this Agreement shall confer any right,
remedy or claim, express or

Certificateholder, other than Financial Security, against WFSRC2, Westcorp or
WFS, and all the terms, covenants, conditions, promises and agreements contained

paid by WFSRC2, Westcorp or WFS pursuant to Section 3.03 or 3.04 hereof.

Agreement, the determination whether to grant or withhold such consent shall be
made solely by Financial Security in its absolute discretion.

                  Section 8.10. Severability. In the event that any provision of
this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent
jurisdiction, the parties hereto agree that such holding shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable any other provision hereof. The parties hereto further
agree that the holding by any court of competent jurisdiction that any remedy
pursued by Financial Security hereunder is unavailable or unenforceable shall
not affect in any way the ability of Financial Security to pursue any other
remedy available to it.

                  Section 8.11. Reports. Any report, certificate, statement or
notice which WFSRC2, WFS as the Master Servicer, and any successor Master

shall also be provided to Financial Security within the same time period
specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

party hereto, as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or
equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise in respect of any of
the Transaction Agreements, the Notes, the Certificates or the Policy, it being
expressly agreed and understood that each Transaction Agreement is solely a
