the one with the largest absolute value); or 

  

	 	(c)	if, on such Early Termination Date, no Market Quotation for the relevant Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions is accepted by Party B so as to become legally binding and no Market Quotation from an

Quotation” in Part 1(k)(i)) apply, (1) Party B shall pay to Party A an amount equal to the absolute value of the Settlement Amount in respect of the Terminated Transactions, (2) Party B shall pay to Party A the Termination

 13 









	 	
exercising any of Party B’s rights under this Agreement, Party A shall have the option of treating that notice as void unless that notice is signed by the Trustee acknowledging its consent

	 	(iv)	Except as expressly provided in this Agreement for any transfer (as provided in Part 6 hereof), Event of Default, Termination Event, Additional Termination Event, Party A and Party B may not enter into any agreement to

nothing herein shall be construed to waive or otherwise limit the netting provisions contained in Sections 2(c) and 6 of this Agreement or the setoff rights contained in the Credit Support Annex. Section 6(e) shall be amended by the deletion of
the following sentence: “The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date and determined pursuant to this Section will be subject to any Setoff”. 


 

	(i)	Indenture. 

  

	 	(i)	Party B hereby acknowledges that Party A is a secured party under the Indenture with respect to this Agreement and a third-party beneficiary under the Indenture and Party B agrees for the benefit of Party A that neither
it nor any other Person will take any action (whether in the form of an amendment, a modification, supplement, waiver, approval, consent or otherwise) which may have a material adverse effect with respect to the rights, interest or benefits granted
to Party A under the Indenture with respect to this Agreement, whether or not this Agreement is specifically referred to or identified therein without the prior written consent of Party A (to the extent such consent is required under the Indenture).

addition, on each date on which a Transaction is entered into, Party B hereby represents and warrants to Party A: that the Transaction meets all of the requirements under the Transaction Documents applicable to it and does not violate or conflict
with any of the provisions of the Transaction Documents applicable to it or any other documents executed in connection therewith; and that under the terms of the Transaction Documents applicable to it, neither the consent of the Owner Trustee, the
Trustee nor of any of the Noteholders under the Transaction Documents is required for Party B to enter into that Transaction or for Party A to be entitled for that Transaction to the rights, interests and benefits granted to Party A under the
Transaction Documents. 

  

	 	(iii)	Party B will provide at least ten days’ prior written notice to Party A of any proposed amendment or modification to the Transaction Documents. 


 

	(j)	Consent to Notice & Communications. Party B hereby consents to the giving to the Trustee of notice by Party A of Party A’s address and telecopy and telephone numbers for all purposes of the
Transaction Documents, and in addition, Party A shall also be entitled at any time to provide the Trustee with copies of this Agreement, including all Confirmations. In addition, Party A shall not be precluded from communicating with the Trustee or
any party to, or any third party beneficiary under, the Transaction Documents for the purpose of exercising, enforcing or protecting any of Party A’s rights or remedies under this Agreement or any rights, interests or benefits granted to Party

	(k)	No Bankruptcy Petition. Without impairing any right afforded to it under the Transaction Documents as a third party beneficiary, Party A shall not institute against or cause any other person to institute against,
or join any other person in instituting against the Trust any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy, dissolution or similar law, for a period of one

	(l)	Limitation of Liability. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (i) this Agreement is executed and delivered by the Trustee not individually or personally but solely as trustee of
the Trust, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (ii) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Trust is made and intended not as a personal representation,
undertaking or agreement by the Trustee but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust, (iii) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on the part of the Trustee, individually or personally, to
perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under the parties hereto and (iv) under no circumstances shall
the Trustee be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Trust or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Trust under this Agreement.

Party B to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, Party A shall not be precluded from declaring an Event
of Default or from exercising any other right or remedy as set forth in this Agreement or the Indenture. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive termination of this Agreement. 


 

	(n)	Change of Account. Section 2(b) of this Agreement is hereby amended by the addition of the words “to another account in the same legal and tax jurisdiction as the original account” following the
word “delivery” in the first line thereof. 

  

	(o)	Notice of Certain Events or Circumstances. Each party agrees, upon learning of the occurrence or existence of any event or condition that constitutes (or that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both
would constitute) an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to such party, promptly to give the other party notice of such event or condition (or, in lieu of giving notice of such event or condition in the case of an event or condition
that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to the party, to cause such event or condition to cease to exist before becoming an Event of Default or Termination
Event); provided that failure to provide notice of such event or condition pursuant to this provision shall not constitute an Event of Default or a Termination Event. Each party agrees to provide to the other party any other notice reasonably
expected to be provided to facilitate compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Credit Support Document. 


  
 16

	(q)	Compliance with Regulation AB. 

  

	 	(i)	Party A has been advised by Party B that Santander Consumer USA Inc. (the “Sponsor”), and Party B are required under Regulation AB under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act

	 	(ii)	If required, upon written request, Party A shall provide to Party B or the Sponsor the applicable financial information described under Item 1115(b) of Regulation AB (the “Reg AB Financial

reasonably determined, in good faith, that such information is required under Regulation AB. In the event that Party A does not provide any such Reg AB Financial Information by the end of the related Response Period, Party A promptly, but in no
event later than ten (10) Local Business Days following the end of such Response Period shall either, at Party A’s own expense (1) find a replacement counterparty that (A) has the ability to provide its applicable Reg AB

and cause such affiliate to provide Swap Financial Disclosure and any future Swap Financial Disclosure and other information pursuant to clause (1), such that disclosure provided in respect of such affiliate will satisfy any disclosure requirements
applicable to the Swap Provider, or (3) transfer Eligible Collateral to Party B’s Custodian in an amount (taking into account any amount posted pursuant to the Credit Support Annex, if any) which is sufficient, as reasonably determined in
good faith by the Sponsor, to reduce the aggregate significance percentage below 10% (or, so long as Party A is able to provide the Swap Financial Disclosure required pursuant to Item 1115(b)(1) of Regulation AB, below 20%, in the event Party A
is requested to provide the Swap Financial Disclosure required pursuant to Item 1115(b)(2) of Regulation AB). 


  
 17 









	 	(iii)	If Party B or the Sponsor request (in writing) the Reg AB Financial Information from Party A, then the Sponsor or Party B will promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day of the date of the request for
the Reg AB Financial Information) provide Party A with a written explanation of how the significance percentage was calculated. 

  

	 	(iv)	Party A represents and warrants that the statements appearing in the Prospectus Supplement dated [        ], as supplemented by the Supplement dated
[        ], or in the Prospectus, dated [        ], each relating to Santander Drive Auto Receivables Trust [        ] under the
headings “The Swap Counterparty” (the “Prospectus Information”) are true and correct in all material respects and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 

  

	 	(v)    (A)	Party A shall indemnify and hold harmless Party B, the Sponsor, their respective directors or officers and any person controlling Party B or the Sponsor, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus Information or in any Reg AB Financial Information that Party A provides to Party B or the Sponsor pursuant to this Part 5(r) (the
“Party A Information”) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state in the Party A Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.


  

	 	(B)	The Sponsor shall indemnify and hold harmless Party A, its respective directors or officers and any person controlling Party A, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement referred to in clause (iv) above (together with the accompanying base Prospectus), the Prospectus Supplement referred to in clause
(iv) above (together with the accompanying base Prospectus) (collectively, the “Prospectus Disclosure”) or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state in the Prospectus Disclosure a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Sponsor shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission made in any such Prospectus Disclosure in the Party A Information.

	 	(vi)	Promptly after the indemnified party under Part 5(r)(v) receives notice of the commencement of any such action, the indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made pursuant to Part 5(r)(v), promptly
notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof. In case any such action is brought against the indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to
appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be
responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding
the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the
reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) such indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel, (ii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the
indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable
time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party will not, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such
claim, action, suit or proceeding. No indemnified party will settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution
may be sought hereunder without the consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
