convey to the Issuer by execution of an assignment substantially in the form

         material breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement
         to which the Depositor is a party or by which the Depositor or any of
         the Depositor's properties may be bound, or result in the creation or
         imposition of any security interest, lien, charge, pledge, preference,

         Transaction Documents to which the Depositor is a party, (2) which
         might adversely affect the federal income tax or other federal, state
         or local tax attributes of the Certificates or Notes, (3) asserting the
         invalidity of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, the Notes
         or the Certificates or (4) seeking to prevent the issuance of the
         Securities or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
         Transaction Documents.

         of business (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) is as set
         forth in SECTION 11.04. The Depositor has not changed its name, whether
         by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation, by reorganization or
         otherwise, and has not changed the location of its place of business,
         within the four months preceding the Closing Date.

                  (h) The Depositor, at the time of and after giving effect to
         the conveyance made hereunder, is Solvent.

Such representations speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement
and as of the Closing Date, but shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment
of the Contracts to the Issuer and the pledge thereof to the Indenture Trustee.

         jurisdiction to the extent required by the laws of such jurisdiction to
         service the Contracts in accordance with the terms hereof other than

         effect on the business, properties, assets, or condition (financial or
         otherwise) of the Servicer or on the ability of the Servicer to perform
         its obligations hereunder.

                  (b) AUTHORIZATION; BINDING OBLIGATIONS. The Servicer has the
         power and authority to make, execute, deliver and perform this
         Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is
         a party and all of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement
         and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is a party,
         and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the

         Servicer is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation
         of the Servicer enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as
         enforcement of such terms may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or
         similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally
         and by the availability of equitable remedies.

                  (c) NO CONSENT REQUIRED. The Servicer is not required to
         obtain the consent of any other party or any consent, license, approval
         or authorization from, or registration or declaration with, any
         governmental authority, bureau or agency in connection with the
         execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this
         Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Servicer is
         a party.

                  (d) NO VIOLATIONS. The execution, delivery and performance of
         this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the
         Servicer is a party by the Servicer will not violate any provisions of
         any existing law or regulation or any order or decree of any court or
         of any Federal or state regulatory body or administrative agency having
         jurisdiction over the Servicer or any of its properties or the Articles
         of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Servicer, or constitute a material
         breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement to which
         the Servicer is a party or by which the Servicer or any of the
         Servicer's properties may be bound, or result in the creation of or
         imposition of any security interest, lien, pledge, preference, equity
         or encumbrance of any kind upon any of its properties pursuant to the
         terms of any such mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement,
         other than this Agreement.

                  (e) LITIGATION. No litigation or administrative proceeding of
         or before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently
         pending, or to the knowledge of the Servicer threatened, against the
         Servicer or any of its properties or with respect to this Agreement,
         any other Transaction Document to which the Servicer is a party which,
         if adversely determined, would in the opinion of the Servicer have a
         material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets or
         condition (financial or otherwise) of the Servicer or the Issuer or the

                                  ARTICLE FOUR

           PERFECTION OF TRANSFER AND PROTECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS

         SECTION 4.01. CUSTODY OF CONTRACTS. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions of this SECTION 4.01, the contents of each Contract File shall be
held in the custody of the Servicer for the benefit of, and as agent for, the
Issuer as the owner thereof.

         (b) The Servicer agrees to maintain the related Contract Files at its
offices where they are currently maintained, or at such other offices of the
Servicer in the State of Illinois as shall from time to time be identified to
the Trustees by written notice. The Servicer may temporarily move individual
Contract Files or any portion thereof without notice as necessary to conduct
collection and other servicing activities in accordance with its customary
practices and procedures; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer will take all
action necessary to maintain the


                                       24
<PAGE>

perfection of the Issuer's interest in the Contracts and the proceeds thereof.
It is intended that by the Servicer's agreement pursuant to SECTION 4.01(a)
above and this SECTION 4.01(b) the Issuer shall be deemed to have possession of
the Contract Files for purposes of Section 9-305 of the Uniform Commercial Code
of the State in which the Contract Files are located.

         (c) As custodian, the Servicer shall have and perform the following
powers and duties:

                  (i) hold the Contract Files on behalf of the Issuer, maintain
         accurate records pertaining to each Contract to enable it to comply
         with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, maintain a current
         inventory thereof, conduct annual physical inspections of Contract
         Files held by it under this Agreement and certify to the Owner Trustee
         and the Indenture Trustee annually that it continues to maintain
         possession of such Contract Files;

                  (ii) implement policies and procedures in writing and signed
         by a Servicing Officer with respect to persons authorized to have
         access to the Contract Files on the Servicer's premises and the
         receipting for Contract Files taken from their storage area by an
         employee of the Servicer for purposes of servicing or any other
         purposes;

                  (iii) attend to all details in connection with maintaining
         custody of the Contract Files on behalf of the Issuer;

                  (iv) at all times maintain the original of the fully executed
         Contract;

                  (v) clearly identify the assignment of the Contract and the
         contemporaneous grant of a security interest therein to the Indenture
         Trustee; and

                  (vi) within 60 days of the Closing Date deliver an Officer's
         Certificate to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee certifying
         that as of a date no earlier than the Closing Date it has conducted an
         inventory of a random sample of the Contract Files and that there
         exists a Contract File for each Contract and stating all exceptions to
         such statement, if any.

         (d) The Servicer shall promptly report to the Owner Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee any failure by it to hold the Contract Files as herein
provided and shall promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such failure.
In acting as custodian of the Contract Files, the Servicer further agrees not to
assert any legal or beneficial ownership interest in the Contracts or the
Contract Files, except as provided in SECTION 5.06. The Servicer agrees to
indemnify the Issuer and the Trustees for any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, payments, costs, or expenses of any kind whatsoever which may
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Issuer or the Trustees as the
result of any act or omission by the Servicer relating to the maintenance and
custody of the Contract Files; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer will not be
liable for any portion of any such amount resulting from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Issuer or the Trustees. The Trustees shall have no
duty to monitor or otherwise oversee the Servicer's performance as custodian
hereunder.


                                       25
<PAGE>

         (e) The Servicer shall make available to the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee or their respective duly authorized representatives, attorneys
or auditors, the Contract Files and the related accounts, records and computer
systems maintained by the Servicer at such times during normal operating hours
as the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee shall reasonably instruct which does
not unreasonably interfere with the Servicer's normal operations or customer or
employee relations.

         (f) Upon instruction from the Indenture Trustee (or, if the Notes have
been paid in full, from the Owner Trustee), the Servicer shall release any
document in the Contract Files to the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee, or
their respective agents or designee, as the case may be, at such place or places
as such Person may reasonably designate as soon as reasonably practicable to the
extent it does not unreasonably interfere with the Servicer's normal operations
or customer or employee relations. The Servicer shall not be responsible for any
loss occasioned by the failure of the Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee, or
their respective agents or designees, to return any document or any delay in
doing so.

         (g) The Servicer's appointment as custodian shall become effective as
of the Cutoff Date and shall continue in full force and effect until terminated
pursuant to this SECTION 4.01(g) or until this Agreement shall be terminated. If
all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer shall have been terminated
under SECTION 8.03, the appointment of the Servicer as custodian will be
automatically terminated without any further action of the Indenture Trustee or
any Holder. As soon as practicable, and in any event within 10 Business Days
after any termination of such appointment, the Servicer shall, at its expense,
deliver the Contract Files to the Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding the
termination of the Servicer as custodian, the Owner Trustee agrees that upon any
such termination, the Issuer shall provide, or cause its agent to provide,
access to the Contract Files to the Servicer for the purpose of carrying out its
duties and responsibilities with respect to the servicing of the Contracts
hereunder.

         SECTION 4.02. FILING. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Servicer
shall cause the UCC financing statement(s) referred to in SECTION 2.02(g) hereof
to be filed and from time to time the Servicer shall take and cause to be taken
such actions and execute such documents as are necessary or desirable or as the
Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee may reasonably request to perfect and protect
the Issuer's first priority perfected interest in the Trust Corpus against all
other persons, including, without limitation, the filing of financing
statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements, the execution of
transfer instruments and the making of notations on or taking possession of all
records or documents of title.

         SECTION 4.03. NAME CHANGE OR RELOCATION. (a) During the term of this
Agreement, neither the Seller nor the Depositor shall change its name, identity
or structure or relocate its chief executive office without first giving at
least 30 days' prior written notice to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee.

         (b) If any change in either the Seller's or the Depositor's name,
identity or structure or other action would make any financing or continuation
statement or notice of lien filed under this Agreement seriously misleading
within the meaning of applicable provisions of the UCC or any title statute, the
Servicer, no later than five days after the effective date of such change, shall
file such amendments as may be required to preserve and protect the Issuer's
interests in the


                                       26
<PAGE>

Trust Corpus and the proceeds thereof. In addition, neither the Seller nor the
Depositor shall change its place of business (within the meaning of Article 9 of
the UCC) from the location specified in SECTION 11.04 unless it has first taken
such action as is advisable or necessary to preserve and protect the Issuer's
interest in the Trust Corpus. Promptly after taking any of the foregoing
actions, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Owner Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing
statements or amendments necessary to preserve and protect the interests of the
Issuer in the Trust Corpus have been filed, and reciting the details of such
filing.

         SECTION 4.04. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE. During the term of this
Agreement, the Depositor will maintain its chief executive office in one of the
States of the United States, except Louisiana, Tennessee, Colorado, Kansas, New
Mexico, Oklahoma, Utah or Wyoming.

         SECTION 4.05. COSTS AND EXPENSES. The Servicer agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and disbursements in connection with the perfection and the
maintenance of perfection, as against all third parties, of the Issuer's right,
title and interest in and to the Contracts (including, without limitation, the
security interest in the Financed Vehicles granted thereby).


                                  ARTICLE FIVE

                             SERVICING OF CONTRACTS

         SECTION 5.01. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION. The Servicer
will have the sole obligation to manage, administer, service and make
collections on the Contracts and perform or cause to be performed all
contractual and customary undertakings of the holder of the Contracts to the
Obligor. The Owner Trustee, at the written request of a Servicing Officer, shall
furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or
appropriate in the opinion of the Owner Trustee to enable the Servicer to carry
out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. The Servicer is hereby
appointed the servicer hereunder until such time as any Service Transfer may be
effected under ARTICLE VIII.

         SECTION 5.02. STANDARD OF CARE. In managing, administering, servicing
and making collections on the Contracts pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer
will exercise that degree of skill and care consistent with the skill and care
that the Servicer exercises with respect to similar contracts serviced by the
Servicer for itself and others and, in any event, no less degree of skill and
care than would be exercised by a prudent servicer of motor vehicle retail
installment sale contracts; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer shall not release or waive the right to collect the
unpaid balance of any Contract except that with respect to a Contract that has
become a Defaulted Contract, the Servicer, consistent with its collection
policies, may release or waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of such
Defaulted Contract in an effort to maximize collections thereon.

         SECTION 5.03. RECORDS. The Servicer shall, during the period it is
servicer hereunder, maintain such books of account and other records as will
enable the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee to determine the status of
each Contract.


                                       27
<PAGE>

         SECTION 5.04. INSPECTION. (a) At all times during the term hereof, the
Servicer shall afford the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and their
respective authorized agents reasonable access during normal business hours to
the Servicer's records relating to the Contracts and will cause its personnel to
assist in any examination of such records by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture
Trustee, or such authorized agents and allow copies of the same to be made. The
examination referred to in this Section will be conducted in a manner which does
not unreasonably interfere with the Servicer's normal operations or customer or
employee relations. Without otherwise limiting the scope of the examination the
Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee may, using generally accepted audit
procedures, verify the status of each Contract and review the Computer Disk and
records relating thereto for conformity to Monthly Reports prepared pursuant to
ARTICLE IX and compliance with the standards represented to exist as to each
Contract in this Agreement.

         (b) At all times during the term hereof, the Servicer shall keep
available a copy of the List of Contracts at its principal executive office for
inspection by the Trustees.

         SECTION 5.05. TRUST ACCOUNTS. (a) On or before the Closing Date, the
Indenture Trustee shall establish the Collection Account, Note Distribution
Account and Reserve Fund, each in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the
benefit of the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, respectively. The
Indenture Trustee is hereby required to ensure that each of the Trust Accounts
is established and maintained as an Eligible Account.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee shall deposit (or the Servicer shall deposit,
with respect to payments by or on behalf of the Obligors and Net Liquidation
Proceeds received by the Servicer) into the Collection Account as promptly as
practical (but in any case not later than the second Business Day following the
receipt thereof):

                  (i) All payments on the Contracts (as well as Late Payment
         Penalty Fees and extension fees) received by the Servicer on or after
         the Cutoff Date (which for the purpose of this paragraph (b)(i) shall
         include those monies deposited in the Lockbox Account allocable to
         principal and interest on the Contracts);

                  (ii) All Net Liquidation Proceeds related to the Contracts;

                  (iii) The aggregate of the Repurchase Prices for Contracts
         repurchased by the Depositor as described in SECTION 7.05 which amounts
         shall be funded with amounts coming from the Seller pursuant to SECTION
         5.01 of the Transfer and Sale Agreement or from the Performance
         Guarantor pursuant to the Performance Guarantee;

                  (iv) The aggregate of the Repurchase Prices for Contracts
         repurchased by the Servicer as described in SECTION 5.06(f);

                  (v) All Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to SECTION
         7.02;

                  (vi) All amounts paid by the Seller in connection with an
         optional repurchase of the Contracts described in SECTION 7.07; and


                                       28
<PAGE>

                  (vii) All amounts received in respect of interest, dividends,
         gains, income and earnings on investments of funds in the Trust
         Accounts (except the Reserve Fund) as contemplated herein.

         (c) If the Servicer so directs, in writing, the Indenture Trustee shall
invest the amounts in the Trust Accounts in Qualified Eligible Investments that
mature not later than one Business Day prior to the next succeeding Distribution
Date. All funds to be distributed pursuant to SECTION 7.03 will be available and
for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee at least one Business Day prior to the
related Distribution Date. Once such funds are invested, the Indenture Trustee
shall not change the investment of such funds. Any loss on such investments
shall be deposited in the applicable Trust Account by the Servicer out of its
own funds immediately as realized. In the absence of written investment
instructions from the Servicer all amounts in the Trust Accounts shall be
invested in investments identified in paragraph (a) of the definition of
Eligible Investments. Funds in the Trust Accounts not so invested must be
insured to the extent permitted by law by the Bank Insurance Fund or the Savings
Association Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Subject
to the restrictions herein, the Indenture Trustee may purchase a Qualified
Eligible Investment from itself or an Affiliate. Subject to the other provisions
hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall have sole control over each such investment
and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any
such investment, if any, shall be delivered directly to the Indenture Trustee or
its agent, together with each document of transfer, if any, necessary to
transfer title to such investment to the Indenture Trustee in a manner which
complies with this SECTION 5.05(c). All interest, dividends, gains upon sale and
other income from, or earnings on, investments of funds in the Trust Accounts
(other than the Reserve Fund) shall be deposited in the Collection Account
pursuant to SECTION 5.05(b) and distributed on the next Distribution Date
pursuant to SECTION 7.03. The Depositor and the Issuer agree and acknowledge
that the Indenture Trustee is to have "CONTROL" (within the meaning of Section
8-102 of the UCC as enacted in Illinois) of collateral comprised of "INVESTMENT
PROPERTY" (within the meaning of Section 9-115 of the UCC as enacted in
Illinois) for all purposes of this Agreement.

         (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Servicer may
remit payments on the Contracts and Net Liquidation Proceeds to the Collection
Account in next-day funds or immediately available funds no later than 10:00
a.m., Central time, on the Business Day prior to the next succeeding
Distribution Date, but only for so long as (a)(i) the short-term certificate of
deposit ratings of the Servicer are at least P-1 by Moody's and "A-1" by
Standard & Poor's or (ii) the Rating Agency shall have notified the Servicer,
the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, in writing, that monthly
remittances of collections will not result in reduction or withdrawal of any
then outstanding rating of any outstanding Note or Certificate and (b) the
Servicer is Premier Auto Finance, Inc.

         (e) The Servicer shall apply collections received in respect of a
Contract as follows:

                  (i) First, to reimburse any outstanding Advances made by the
Servicer with respect to such Contract;

                  (ii) Second, (x) to interest accrued on such Contract as of
such date and (y) to principal to the extent due and owing under such Contract;
and


                                       29
<PAGE>

                  (iii) Third, to pay any unpaid late charges or extension fees
(if any) due and owing under such Contract.

         (f) Any collections on a Contract remaining after application by the
Servicer in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 5.05(e) shall constitute
an excess payment (an "EXCESS PAYMENT"). Excess Payments shall be applied as a
prepayment of the Principal Balance of such Contract.

         (g) The Servicer will, from time to time as provided herein, be
permitted to withdraw from the Collection Account any amount deposited therein
that, based on the Servicer's good-faith determination, was deposited in error
or required to be repaid to the related Obligor.

         SECTION 5.06. ENFORCEMENT. (a) The Servicer will, consistent with
SECTION 5.02, act with respect to the Contracts in such manner as will maximize
the receipt of all payments called for under the terms of the Contracts. The
Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause Obligors to make all payments on
the Contracts directly to the Lockbox Account. The Servicer will act in a
commercially reasonable manner with respect to the repossession and disposition
of a Financed Vehicle following a default under the related Contract with a view
to realizing proceeds at least equal to the Financed Vehicle's fair market
value. If the Servicer determines that eventual payment in full of a Contract is
unlikely, the Servicer will follow its normal practices and procedures to
recover all amounts due upon that Contract, including repossessing and disposing
of the related Financed Vehicle at a public or private sale or taking other
action permitted by applicable law. The Servicer will be entitled to recover all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in liquidating a Contract and
disposing of the related Financed Vehicle.

         (b) The Servicer may sue to enforce or collect upon Contracts, in its
own name, if possible, or as agent for the Trustees. If the Servicer elects to
commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Contract, the act of commencement shall
be deemed to be an automatic assignment of the Contract to the Servicer for
purposes of collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal
proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not enforce a Contract on the ground
that it is not a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the
Contract, the Owner Trustee (or the Indenture Trustee) on behalf of the Issuer
shall, at the Servicer's expense, take such steps as the Servicer deems
reasonably necessary to enforce the Contract, including bringing suit in its
name.

         (c) The Servicer shall exercise any rights of recourse against third
persons that exist with respect to any Contract in accordance with the
Servicer's usual practice. In exercising recourse rights, the Servicer is
authorized on the Issuer's behalf to reassign the Defaulted Contract or the
related Financed Vehicle to the Person against whom recourse exists at the price
set forth in the document creating the recourse; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Servicer
in exercising recourse against any third persons as described in the immediately
preceding sentence shall do so in such manner as to maximize the aggregate
recovery with respect to the Contract; and PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that
notwithstanding the foregoing the Servicer in its capacity as such may exercise
such recourse only if such Contract (i) was not required to be repurchased by
the Seller pursuant to the Transfer and Sale Agreement or (ii) was required to
be repurchased by the Seller and the Seller has defaulted on such repurchase
obligation and the Performance Guarantor has defaulted on its obligation to
repurchase such Contract pursuant to the Performance Guarantee.


                                       30
<PAGE>

         (d) The Servicer will not permit any rescission or cancellation of any
Contract due to the acts or omissions of the Depositor.

         (e) The Servicer may grant to the Obligor on any Contract an extension
of payments due under such Contract; PROVIDED that (i) the Servicer believes in
good faith that such extension is necessary to avoid liquidation of the Contract
and will maximize the amount received under the Contract, (ii) such extension is
consistent with the Servicer's customary servicing procedures and is consistent
with SECTION 5.02, (iii) such extension does not extend the maturity date of the
Contract beyond six (6) months preceding the Certificate Final Scheduled
Distribution Date and (iv) such extension does not modify the terms of the
Contract in a manner which constitutes a cancellation of the Contract and the
creation of a new contract for federal income tax purposes.

         (f) The Servicer may agree to modify or amend any Contract if such
modification or amendment is consistent with the Servicer's customary servicing
procedures and is consistent with SECTION 5.02; provided that the Servicer
hereby covenants that it will not (i) release the Lien on a Financed Vehicle
granted in such Contract, (ii) undertake any action which would materially and
adversely impact the rights of the Issuer in such Contract, (iii) modify, alter
or change the Contract Rate of such Contract, (iv) modify, alter or change the
number of installment payments the related Obligor is obligated to make under
such Contract or (v) increase the Principal Balance of such Contract. The
Servicer hereby agrees that it shall purchase a Contract (together with all
related Contract Assets) as of the last day of the immediately preceding Due
Period, at its Repurchase Price, not later than the second Distribution Date
after the Servicer becomes aware, or should have become aware, or receives
written notice from the Depositor or either of the Trustees of any breach of a
covenant of the Servicer set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above or in
SECTION 5.06(e) that materially adversely affects the interest of the Issuer or
the interest of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders in such Contract or
the collectibility of the Contract (without regard to the benefits of the
Reserve Fund) and which breach has not been cured.

         (g) The Servicer will not add to the outstanding Principal Balance of
any Contract the premium of any physical damage or other individual insurance on
a Financed Vehicle securing such Contract it obtains on behalf of the Obligor
under the terms of such Contract, but may create a separate Obligor obligation
with respect to such premium if and as provided by the Contract; provided, that,
the payment of any such premium shall be subordinate to any and all payments on
the Contracts.

         (h) If the Servicer shall have repossessed a Financed Vehicle on behalf
of the Issuer, the Servicer shall either (i) maintain at its expense physical
damage insurance with respect to such Financed Vehicle, or (ii) indemnify the
Issuer against any damage to such Financed Vehicle prior to resale or other
disposition. The Servicer shall not allow such repossessed Financed Vehicles to
be used in an active trade or business, but rather shall dispose of the Financed
Vehicle in a reasonable time in accordance with the Servicer's normal business
practices.

         SECTION 5.07. TRUSTEES TO COOPERATE. Upon payment in full on any
Contract, the Servicer will notify the Trustees and the Depositor on the next
succeeding Distribution Date by certification of a Servicing Officer (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
in connection with such Contract which are required to be deposited in the


                                       31
<PAGE>

Collection Account pursuant to SECTION 5.05 have been so deposited) and shall
(if the Servicer is not then in possession of the Contracts and Contract Files)
request delivery of the Contract and Contract File to the Servicer. Upon receipt
of such delivery and request, the Trustees shall promptly release or cause to be
released such Contract and Contract File to the Servicer. Upon receipt of such
Contract and Contract File, each of the Depositor and the Servicer is authorized
to execute an instrument in satisfaction of such Contract and to do such other
acts and execute such other documents as the Servicer deems necessary to
discharge the Obligor thereunder and eliminate the security interest in the
Financed Vehicle related thereto. The Servicer shall determine when a Contract
has been paid in full; to the extent that insufficient payments are received on
a Contract credited by the Servicer as prepaid or paid in full and satisfied,
the shortfall shall be paid by the Servicer out of its own funds. From time to
time as appropriate for servicing and repossession in connection with any
Contract, if the Indenture Trustee, and not the Servicer is then in possession
of the Contracts and Contract Files, the Indenture Trustee shall, upon written
request of a Servicing Officer and delivery to the Indenture Trustee of a
receipt signed by such Servicing Officer, cause the original Contract and the
related Contract File to be released to the Servicer and shall execute such
documents as the Servicer shall deem reasonably necessary to the prosecution of
any such proceedings. Such receipt shall obligate the Servicer to return the
original Contract and the related Contract File to the Indenture Trustee when
the need by the Servicer has ceased unless the Contract shall be repurchased as
described in SECTION 7.07. Upon request of a Servicing Officer, the Indenture
Trustee shall perform such other acts as reasonably requested by the Servicer
and otherwise cooperate with the Servicer in the enforcement of the
Securityholders' rights and remedies with respect to the Contracts.

         SECTION 5.08. COSTS AND EXPENSES. All costs and expenses incurred by
the Servicer in carrying out its duties hereunder, fees and expenses of
accountants and payments of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with
the enforcement of Contracts (including enforcement of Defaulted Contracts and
repossessions of Financed Vehicles securing such Contracts) and all other fees
and expenses not expressly stated hereunder to be for the account of the Issuer
shall be paid by the Servicer and the Servicer shall not be entitled to
reimbursement hereunder except as otherwise provided in SECTION 5.06(a).

         SECTION 5.09. MAINTENANCE OF SECURITY INTERESTS IN FINANCED VEHICLES.
The Servicer shall take such steps as are necessary to maintain continuous
perfection and the first priority of the security interest created by each
Contract in the related Financed Vehicles. The Owner Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee hereby authorize the Servicer to take such steps as are necessary to
perfect such security interest and to maintain the first priority thereof in the
event of a relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason.

         SECTION 5.10. MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE. The Servicer shall, at its own
cost and expense, during the term of its service as Servicer maintain in force
an insurance policy or financial guarantee bond to protect against losses due to
errors and omissions by the Servicer in the performance of its duties hereunder.
Such insurance policy or financial guarantee bond shall be in form and in an
amount as is generally customary among Persons which service a portfolio of
automobile retail installment sale contracts and which are generally regarded as
servicers acceptable to institutional investors.

         SECTION 5.11. SEPARATE ENTITY EXISTENCE. The Servicer agrees to take or
refrain from taking or engaging in with respect to the Depositor, as applicable,
each of the actions or activities specified in the "nonsubstantive
consolidation" opinion of Winston & Strawn (or in any related Certificate of the
Servicer) delivered on the Closing Date, upon which the conclusions expressed
therein are based.


                                   ARTICLE SIX

                                  THE DEPOSITOR

         SECTION 6.01. COVENANTS OF THE DEPOSITOR.

                  (a) CORPORATE EXISTENCE. During the term of this Agreement,
the Depositor will keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and
franchises as a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in
each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to

Documents and each other instrument or agreement necessary or appropriate to the
proper administration of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby.

                  (b) ARM'S LENGTH TRANSACTIONS. During the term of this
Agreement, all transactions and dealings between the Depositor and its
Affiliates will be conducted on an arm's-length basis.

                  (c) NO OTHER BUSINESS. The Depositor shall not engage in any
business other than financing, purchasing, owning, selling and managing the
Contracts in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents and activities incidental thereto; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Depositor may purchase and sell (or grant Liens in respect of) contracts and/or
other related assets similar to the Contracts to other Persons in securitization
or other non-recourse financing transactions involving the Seller, the Servicer
or any of their Affiliates (or with respect to the Contract Assets themselves,
following a release and reconveyance thereof from the Trust), on terms and
conditions (with respect to the liabilities imposed upon the Depositor by virtue
of such transactions, as well as in respect of agreements or restrictions
concerning activities of the Depositor and its relations or interactions with
the Seller or the Servicer or other applicable Affiliate relevant to "bankruptcy
remoteness" or "substantive consolidation" analysis), in each case substantially
similar to such terms and conditions applicable to the Depositor hereunder and
under the other Transaction Documents; PROVIDED, FURTHER, the Depositor provide
3 days written notice of such purchase and sale to each Rating Agency.

                  (d) NO BORROWING. The Depositor shall not issue, incur,
assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable, directly or indirectly, for (i)
any Indebtedness except for any Indebtedness permitted by or arising under the
Transaction Documents or (ii) obligations in connection with transactions
described in the proviso of SECTION 6.01(c), as limited thereby. The proceeds of
the Notes and the Certificates shall be used exclusively to fund the Depositor's


                                       33
<PAGE>

purchase of the Contracts and the other assets specified in this Agreement and
to pay the transactional expenses of the Depositor.

                  (e) GUARANTEES, LOANS ADVANCES AND OTHER LIABILITIES. Except
as otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents or in connection with
transactions described in SECTION 6.01(c), as limited thereby, the Depositor
shall not make any loan or advance or credit to, or guarantee (directly or
indirectly or by an instrument having the effect of assuming another's payment
or performance on any obligation or capability of so doing or otherwise),
endorse or otherwise become contingently liable, directly or indirectly, in
connection with the obligations, stocks or dividends of, or own, purchase,
repurchase or acquire (or agree contingently to do so) any stock, obligations,
assets or securities of, any other interest in, or make any capital contribution
to, any other Person.

                  (f) CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. The Depositor shall not make any
expenditure (by long-term or operating lease or otherwise) for capital assets
(either realty or personalty).

                  (g) RESTRICTED PAYMENTS. Except as permitted by the
Transaction Documents, the Depositor shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) pay
any dividend or make any distribution (by reduction of capital or otherwise),
whether in cash, property, securities or a combination thereof, to any owner of
an equity interest in the Depositor, (ii) redeem, purchase, retire or otherwise
acquire for value any such equity interest or (iii) set aside or otherwise
segregate any amounts for any such purpose.

                  (h) SEPARATE ENTITY EXISTENCE.  The Depositor shall:

                           (i) Maintain its own deposit account or accounts,
         separate from those of any Affiliate, with commercial banking
         institutions. The funds of the Depositor will not be diverted to any
         other Person or for other than authorized uses of the Depositor.

                           (ii) Ensure that, to the extent that it shares the
         same officers or other employees as any of its members or Affiliates,
         the salaries of and the expenses related to providing benefits to such
         officers and other employees shall be fairly allocated among such
         entities, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of the salary
         and benefit costs associated with all such common officers and
         employees.

                           (iii) Ensure that, to the extent that it jointly
         contracts with any of its members or Affiliates to do business with
         vendors or service providers or to share overhead expenses, the costs
         incurred in so doing shall be allocated fairly among such entities, and
         each such entity shall bear its fair share of such costs. To the extent
         that the Depositor contracts or does business with vendors or service
         providers when the goods and services provided are partially for the
         benefit of any other Person, the costs incurred in so doing shall be
         fairly allocated to or among such entities for whose benefit the goods
         and services are provided, and each such entity shall bear its fair
         share of such costs. All material transactions between Depositor and
         any of its Affiliates shall be only on an arm's length basis.

                           (iv) To the extent that the Depositor and any of its
         members or Affiliates have offices in the same location, there shall be
         a fair and appropriate


                                       34
<PAGE>

         allocation of overhead costs among them, and each such entity shall
         bear its fair share of such expenses.

                           (v) Conduct its affairs strictly in accordance with
         its By-laws and Certificate of Incorporation, and observe all
         necessary, appropriate and customary limited liability company
         formalities, including, but not limited to, holding all regular and
         special members' and directors' meetings appropriate to authorize all
         entity action, keeping separate and accurate records of such meetings
         and its actions, passing all resolutions or consents necessary to
         authorize actions taken or to be taken, and maintaining accurate and
         separate books, records and accounts, including, but not limited to,
         payroll and intercompany transaction accounts.

                           (vi) Take or refrain from taking or engaging in, as
         applicable, each of the actions or activities specified in the "true
         sale" and "nonsubstantive consolidation" opinions of Winston & Strawn
         delivered on the Closing Date (or in any related certificate delivered
         in connection therewith), upon which the conclusions expressed therein
         are based.

         SECTION 6.02. LIABILITY OF DEPOSITOR; INDEMNITIES. The Depositor shall
be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations
specifically undertaken by the Depositor under this Agreement.

         The Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer from and against any taxes
that may at any time be asserted against any such Person with respect to the
transactions contemplated herein and in the other Transaction Documents,
including any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible personal
property, Illinois personal property replacement privilege or license taxes
(but, in the case of the Issuer, not including any taxes asserted with respect
to, and as of the date of, the sale of the Contracts to the Issuer or the
issuance and original sale of the Securities, ownership of the Contracts, or
federal or other income taxes arising out of distributions on the Certificates
or the Notes) and costs and expenses in defending against the same.

         The Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders from and against
any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the Depositor's willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties under this
Agreement, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties
under this Agreement.

         The Depositor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee from and against all costs, expenses,
losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or incurred in connection
with the acceptance or performance of the trusts and duties herein and, in the
case of the Owner Trustee, in the Trust Agreement and, in the case of the
Indenture Trustee, in the Indenture, except to the extent that such cost,
expense, loss, claim, damage or liability in the case of (i) the Owner Trustee
shall be due to the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Owner
Trustee or shall arise from the breach by the Owner Trustee of any of its
representations or warranties set forth in SECTION 7.03 of the Trust


                                       35
<PAGE>

Agreement, or (ii) the Indenture Trustee, shall be due to the willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Indenture Trustee.

         Indemnification under this Section shall include, without limitation,
reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the
Depositor shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and
the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter shall
collect any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such
amounts to the Depositor, without interest.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of the
Depositor under this Section are solely the corporate obligations of the
Depositor and shall be payable by it solely as provided in this Section. The
Depositor shall only be required to make such contributions required under this
Section, (y) from funds available to it pursuant to, and in accordance with the
payment priorities set forth in SECTION 7.03(b) and (z) only to the extent that
it receives additional funds designated for such purposes or to the extent that
it has additional funds available (other than funds described in the preceding
clause (y)) that would be in excess of amounts that would be necessary to pay
the debt and other obligations of such entity incurred in accordance with its
certificate of incorporation and all financing documents to which it is a party
as they come due. In addition , no amount owing by the Depositor 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 any other obligation of, or claim against the
Depositor arising out of or based up on this Section against any stockholder,
employee, officer, agent, director or authorized person of the Depositor 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 6.03. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF, OR ASSUMPTION OF THE
OBLIGATIONS OF, DEPOSITOR; CERTAIN LIMITATIONS.

         Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section and any provision
of law, the Depositor shall not do any of the following:

                  (i) engage in any business or activity other than as set forth
         in its Articles of Incorporation;

                  (ii) without the affirmative vote of a majority of the members
         of the Board of Directors of the Depositor (which must include the
         affirmative vote of at least one duly appointed Independent director)
         (A) dissolve or liquidate, in whole or in part, or institute
         proceedings to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, (B) consent to the
         institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, (C)
         file a petition seeking or consent to reorganization or relief under
         any applicable federal or state law relating to bankruptcy, (D) consent
         to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
         sequestrator (or other similar official) of the corporation or a
         substantial part of its property, (E) make a general assignment for the
         benefit of creditors, (F) admit in writing its inability to pay its
         debts generally as they become due, or (G) take any corporate action in
         furtherance of the actions set forth in clauses (A) through (F) above;
         PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no director


                                       36
<PAGE>

         may be required by any shareholder of the Depositor to consent to the
         institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the
         Depositor so long as it is solvent; or

                  (iii) merge or consolidate with any other corporation, company
         or entity or sell all or substantially all of its assets or acquire all
         or substantially all of the assets or capital stock or other ownership
         interest of any other corporation, company or entity.

         SECTION 6.04. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF DEPOSITOR AND OTHERS. The
Depositor and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Depositor may
rely in good faith on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed
and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The
Depositor and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Depositor
shall be reimbursed by the Owner Trustee for any contractual damages, liability
or expense incurred by reason of the Owner Trustee's willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence (except errors in judgment) in the performance of
their respective duties hereunder, or by reason of reckless disregard of their
respective obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor shall not be under
any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not
be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion
may involve it in any expense or liability.

         SECTION 6.05. DEPOSITOR NOT TO RESIGN. Subject to the provisions of
SECTION 6.03, the Depositor shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it as Depositor hereunder.

         SECTION 6.06. DEPOSITOR MAY OWN NOTES OR CERTIFICATES. The Depositor
and any Affiliate thereof may in its individual or any other capacity become the
owner or pledgee of Notes or Certificates with the same rights as it would have
if it were not the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof, except as expressly
provided herein or in any Transaction Document. Notes or Certificates so owned
by or pledged to the Depositor or such Affiliate shall have an equal and
proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement, without
preference, priority or distinction as among all of the Notes or Certificates,
as the case may be.

         SECTION 6.07. BANKRUPTCY LIMITATIONS. The Depositor shall not, without
the affirmative vote of each of the directors of the Depositor (which must
include the affirmative vote of at least one duly appointed Independent Director
as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Depositor) (A) dissolve or
liquidate, in whole or in part, or institute proceedings to be adjudicated
bankrupt or insolvent, (B) consent to the institution of bankruptcy or
insolvency proceedings against it, (C) file a petition seeking or consent to
reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state law relating to
bankruptcy, (D) consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Depositor or a
substantial part of its property, (E) make a general assignment for the benefit
of creditors, (F) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, or (G) take any entity action in furtherance of the actions set
forth in clauses (A) through (F) above; provided, however, that no director may
be required by any shareholder of the Depositor to consent to the institution of
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Depositor so long as it is
Solvent.

                           DISTRIBUTIONS; RESERVE FUND

         SECTION 7.01. FEES. The Indenture Trustee shall be paid the Indenture
Trustee Fee, the Owner Trustee shall be paid the Owner Trustee Fee and the
Servicer shall be paid the Monthly Servicing Fee, each of which shall be paid
solely from the monies and in accordance with the priorities described in
SECTION 7.03. No recourse may be had to the Seller, Depositor, Trustees,
Servicer, or any of their respective Affiliates in the event that amounts
available under SECTION 7.03 are insufficient for payment of the Indenture
Trustee Fee, the Owner Trustee Fee and the Monthly Servicing Fee.

         SECTION 7.02. ADVANCES. On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
compute the amount of Delinquent Interest for the immediately preceding Due
Period. Not later than each Determination Date, the Servicer shall advance
(each, an "ADVANCE") an amount equal to the Delinquent Interest for such
Determination Date by depositing such amount in the Collection Account;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer shall be obligated to advance in respect of
a Contract only to the extent that the Servicer, in its sole discretion, expects
that such advance would not be an Uncollectible Advance. The Servicer shall
indicate on each Monthly Report (i) the amount of Delinquent Interest, if any,
for the related Due Period, and (ii) the amount of the Advance, if any, made by
the Servicer in respect of the Delinquent Interest pursuant to this SECTION
7.02. If the amount of such Advance is less than the amount of the Delinquent
Interest, the relevant Monthly Report shall be accompanied by a certificate of a
Servicing Officer setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the
determination by the Servicer that the portion of the Delinquent Interest not
advanced would be an Uncollectible Advance. By each Determination Date, the
Servicer shall determine the amount of prior unreimbursed Advances for which it
shall be entitled to be reimbursed (such amount, the "REIMBURSEMENT AMOUNT").
The Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for an Advance made in respect
of a delinquent payment under a Contract on the earlier of (i) the Distribution
Date following the Due Period in which that delinquent payment was paid and (ii)
the Distribution Date following the Due Period in which that Contract became a
Defaulted Contract.

         SECTION 7.03. DISTRIBUTIONS.

         (a) On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee at the Servicer's
direction will make the following distributions in the following order of
priority:

                  (i) to the Servicer from Available Amounts, the Reimbursement
         Amount for Advances previously made;

                  (ii) to the Indenture Trustee from Available Amounts, any
         accrued and unpaid Indenture Trustee Fee with respect to one or more
         prior Due Periods;

                  (iii) to the Owner Trustee from Available Amounts, any accrued
         and unpaid Owner Trustee Fee with respect to one or more prior Due
         Periods;

                  (iv) to the Servicer from Available Amounts, the Servicing
         Fee, including any unpaid Servicing Fee with respect to one or more
         prior Due Periods;


                                       38
<PAGE>

                  (v) to the Note Distribution Account from Available Amounts,
         together with any amounts deposited therein pursuant to SECTION 7.04,
         the Note Interest Distributable Amount with respect to such
         Distribution Date for each Class of Notes;

                  (vi) except during any Lockout Period, to the Certificate
         Distribution Account from Available Amounts, together with any amounts
         deposited therein pursuant to SECTION 7.04, the Certificate Interest
         Distributable Amount with respect to such Distribution Date;

                  (vii) to the Note Distribution Account from Available Amounts,
         together with any amounts deposited therein pursuant to SECTION 7.04,
         the Note Principal Distributable Amount with respect to such
         Distribution Date; and

                  (viii) to the Certificate Distribution Account from Available
         Amounts, together with any amounts deposited therein pursuant to
         SECTION 7.04, the Certificate Principal Distributable Amount with
         respect to such Distribution Date.

         (b) In the event that the distributions described in clauses (i)
through (viii) above have been funded exclusively from Available Amounts, the
Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Servicer will deposit any
remaining Available Amounts ("EXCESS AMOUNTS") into the Reserve Fund in
accordance with SECTION 7.04(d), until the amount on deposit therein equals the
Specified Reserve Fund Balance with respect to such Distribution Date and the
Indenture Trustee will remit any excess over such Specified Reserve Fund Balance
to the Depositor.

         SECTION 7.04. RESERVE FUND.

         (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the
Trust shall deposit the Reserve Fund Initial Deposit into the Reserve Fund and
the Indenture Trustee shall acknowledge and confirm the receipt therefor. The
Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain the Reserve Account as an
Eligible Account at The Bank of New York in the name of the Indenture Trustee
for the benefit of the Securityholders.

         (b) The Indenture Trustee shall at the written direction of the
Servicer invest the funds in the Reserve Fund in Qualified Eligible Investments.
Funds in the Reserve Fund shall be invested in investments that mature on or
before the Business Day prior to each Distribution Date. Once such funds are
invested, the Indenture Trustee shall not change the investment of such funds
prior to maturity. Upon any such investment, the Indenture Trustee shall,
consistent with the definition of Qualified Eligible Investment herein, make an
appropriate notation of security interest in such Qualified Eligible Investment
on the Indenture Trustee's records, by book entry or otherwise. In the absence
of written investment instructions from the Servicer all amounts in the Reserve
Fund shall be invested in investments identified in paragraph (a) of the
definition of Eligible Investments. All income and gain realized from any such
investments as well as any interest earned on Reserve Fund Deposits shall be
deposited and retained in the Reserve Fund (subject to SECTION 7.04(d)). Losses,
if any, realized on amounts in the Reserve Fund invested pursuant to this
paragraph shall first be credited against undistributed investment earnings on
amounts in the Reserve Fund invested pursuant to this paragraph, and shall
thereafter


                                       39
<PAGE>

be deemed to reduce the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund. The Depositor and
the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in
respect of any investment, or lack of investment, of funds held in the Reserve
Fund.

         (c) On the Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date,
the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee in writing (based on the
information contained in the Monthly Report delivered on the related
Determination Date pursuant to SECTION 9.01) on such Distribution Date to
withdraw from the Reserve Account an amount equal to the Shortfall with respect
to such Distribution Date and apply such funds in the following order of
priority: first, to the Note Distribution Account; the amount of such Shortfall
relating to the Note Interest Distributable Amount, second, to the Certificate
Distribution Account, the amount of such Shortfall relating to the Certificate
Interest Distributable Amount; third, to the Note Distribution Account, the
amount of such Shortfall relating to the Note Principal Distributable Amount;
and fourth, to the Certificate Distribution Account, the amount of such
Shortfall relating to the Certificate Principal Distributable Amount. On each
Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Reserve
Fund and apply them in accordance with the Servicer's instructions.

         (d) On each Distribution Date on which the amount on deposit in the
Reserve Fund (after giving effect to all deposits thereto and withdrawals
therefrom on such Distribution Date) is greater than the Specified Reserve Fund
Balance with respect to such Distribution Date the Indenture Trustee upon
written direction from the Servicer shall withdraw such excess funds and pay
them to the Depositor.

         (e) On the Distribution Date on which all of the Notes have been paid
in full and the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund on such Distribution Date
(after giving effect to all deposits thereto and withdrawals therefrom on such
Distribution Date) is equal to or greater than the Certificate Balance (after
giving effect to any reductions thereof to be made on such Distribution Date),
the Indenture Trustee upon written direction from the Servicer shall withdraw
from the Reserve Fund and deposit in the Certificate Distribution Account an
amount equal to such Certificate Balance.

         SECTION 7.05. REPURCHASES OF CONTRACTS FOR BREACH OF REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES.

         Upon a discovery by the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustees of a
breach of a representation or warranty of the Depositor as set forth in SECTION
3.01(a) or of the Seller as set forth in EXHIBIT J hereto that materially
adversely affects the Issuer's interest in or collectibility of such Contract
(without regard to the benefits of the Reserve Fund), the party discovering the
breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties; PROVIDED, that the
Trustees shall have no duty or obligation to inquire or to investigate the
breach by the Depositor or the Seller of any of such representations or
warranties. Unless the breach shall have been cured by the last day of the Due
Period following the Due Period in which the Depositor becomes aware, or should
have become aware, or receives written notice from a Trustee or the Servicer of
such breach, the Depositor in accordance with this SECTION 7.05, shall
repurchase such Contract as of the last day of such Due Period at its Repurchase
Price, by depositing such Repurchase Price in the Collection Account on the
related Distribution Date. The repurchase obligation described in this SECTION
7.05 is in no way to be satisfied with monies in the Reserve Fund.

         SECTION 7.06. REASSIGNMENT OF REPURCHASED CONTRACTS. Upon receipt by
the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account of the Repurchase
Price as described in SECTION 7.05 or SECTION 7.07, and upon receipt of a
certificate of a Servicing Officer in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT G, the

Balance as of the Cutoff Date, the Seller, through the Depositor, may (but is
not required to) repurchase on that Distribution Date pursuant to the Transfer
and Sale Agreement all outstanding Contracts (and related Contract Assets) at a
price equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the
Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes
and the Class B Notes and (ii) the Certificate Balance as of that Distribution
Date plus the aggregate of the Note Interest Distributable Amount and the
Certificate Interest Distributable Amount for the current Distribution Date, the
Reimbursement Amount (if any) as well as accrued and unpaid Monthly Servicing
Fees, the Owner Trustee Fees and the Indenture Trustee Fees to the date of such
repurchase. Such price will be deposited in the Collection Account not later
than one (1) Business Day before such Distribution Date, against the Trustees'
release of the Contracts and the Contract Files to the Seller.

         (b) Upon receipt of the notice required by SECTION 8.03(a) (or, if
later, on a date designated therein), all rights, benefits, fees, indemnities,
authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect

in the Indenture Trustee (the "SUCCESSOR SERVICER") pursuant to and under this
SECTION 8.03; and, without limitation, the Successor Servicer is authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do any and all
acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Successor Servicer in
effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Successor Servicer
for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be held by
the Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the Servicer, in the

as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for
herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and
the terminated Servicer shall be relieved of such responsibilities, duties and
liabilities arising after such Service Transfer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the
Successor Servicer will not assume any obligations of the Servicer described in
SECTION 8.08; (ii) the Successor Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or
omissions of the Servicer occurring prior to such Service Transfer or for any
breach by the Servicer of any of its representations and warranties contained
herein or in any related document or agreement; and (iii) the Successor Servicer
shall be entitled to terminate all subservicing agreements, if any, at the sole
cost and expense of the predecessor servicer. Notwithstanding the above, if the
Successor Servicer is legally unable or unwilling to act as Servicer, it may
appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established
financial institution (x) having a net worth of not less than $100,000,000 as of
the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for such institution and (y)
whose regular business shall include the servicing of automobile receivables, to
act as Servicer. As compensation therefor, the Successor Servicer


                                       43
<PAGE>

shall be entitled to receive reasonable compensation equal to the Monthly
Servicing Fee. The Trustees and such Successor Servicer shall take such action,
consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession. To the extent the terminated Servicer has made Advances, it shall be
entitled to reimbursement of the same notwithstanding its termination hereunder,
to the same extent as if it had continued to service the Contracts hereunder. In
the event that the Indenture Trustee acts as Successor Servicer it cannot be
removed for any reason (other than cause) unless all servicing transactions
expenses have been paid by the predecessor servicer.

         SECTION 8.05. NOTIFICATION TO CERTIFICATEHOLDERS. (a) Promptly
following the occurrence of any Servicer Default, the Servicer shall give
written notice thereof to the Trustees, the Depositor and each Rating Agency at
the addresses described in SECTION 11.04. The Indenture Trustee shall give
written notice thereof to the Noteholders and the Owner Trustee shall give
written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing on the Note Register and the Certificate Register, respectively.

         (b) Within 10 days following any termination or appointment of a
Successor Servicer pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, the Indenture Trustee shall
give written notice thereof to each Rating Agency and the Depositor at the
addresses described in SECTION 11.04 and to the Noteholders at their addresses
appearing on the Note Register and the Owner Trustee shall give written notice
to the Certificateholders at their addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register.

         SECTION 8.06. EFFECT OF TRANSFER. (a) After a Service Transfer, the
terminated Servicer shall have no further obligations with respect to the
management, administration, servicing, custody or collection of the Contracts
and the Successor Servicer appointed pursuant to SECTION 8.04 shall have all of
such obligations, except that the terminated Servicer will transmit or cause to
be transmitted directly to the Successor Servicer for its own account, promptly
on receipt and in the same form in which received, any amounts (properly
endorsed where required for the Successor Servicer to collect them) received as
payments upon or otherwise in connection with the Contracts.

         (b) A Service Transfer shall not affect the rights and duties of the
parties hereunder (including but not limited to the indemnities of the Servicer)
other than those relating to the management, administration, servicing, custody
or collection of the Contracts.

         SECTION 8.07. DATABASE FILE. The Servicer will provide the Successor
Servicer with a magnetic tape containing the database file for each Contract (i)

Period on each Determination Date prior to a Servicer Default and (iii) on and
as of the Business Day before the actual commencement of servicing functions by
the Successor Servicer following the occurrence of a Servicer Default.

         SECTION 8.08. SUCCESSOR SERVICER INDEMNIFICATION. The Servicer shall
defend, indemnify and hold the Successor Servicer and any officers, directors,
employees or agents of the Successor Servicer harmless against any and all
claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs,
judgments and any other costs, fees, and expenses that the Successor Servicer
may sustain in connection with the claims asserted at any time by third parties
against the Successor Servicer which result from (i) any willful or grossly
negligent act taken or omission by the


                                       44
<PAGE>

Servicer or (ii) a breach of any representations of the Servicer in SECTION
3.02. The indemnification provided by this SECTION 8.08 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

         SECTION 8.09. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SUCCESSOR SERVICER. The Successor
Servicer will not be responsible for delays attributable to the Servicer's
failure to deliver information, defects in the information supplied by the
Servicer or other circumstances beyond the control of the Successor Servicer.

         The Successor Servicer will make arrangements with the Servicer for the

         The Successor Servicer shall have no responsibility and shall not be in
default hereunder nor incur any liability for any failure, error, malfunction or
any delay in carrying out any of its duties under this Agreement if any such
failure or delay results from the Successor Servicer acting in accordance with
information prepared or supplied by a Person other than the Successor Servicer
or the failure of any such Person to prepare or provide such information. The
Successor Servicer shall have no responsibility, shall not be in default and
shall incur no liability (i) for any act or failure to act by any third party,
including the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustees or for any inaccuracy or
omission in a notice or communication received by the Successor Servicer from
any third party or (ii) which is due to or results from the invalidity,
unenforceability of any Contract with applicable law or the breach or the
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to any Contract.

         SECTION 8.10. LIABILITY OF SERVICER; INDEMNITIES. (a) The Servicer
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the
Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders from and against any loss, liability
or expense incurred by reason of the Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad faith
or gross negligence (other than errors in judgment) in the performance of its
duties under this Agreement, or by reason of reckless disregard of its
obligations and duties under this Agreement or as a result of any breach of the
Servicer's covenants set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of SECTION 5.06(f) or
in SECTION 5.06(e).

         (b) The Servicer shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Issuer,

         (c) The Servicer shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Issuer,
the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee from and against any taxes that may
at any time be asserted against the Issuer with respect to the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement, including, without limitation, any sales, gross
receipts, general corporation, tangible or intangible personal property,
privilege, or license taxes (but not including any taxes asserted with respect
to, and as of the date of, the sale of the Contracts to the Issuer or the
issuance and original sale of the Notes or the Certificates, or asserted with
respect to ownership of the Contracts or federal, state or other


                                       45
<PAGE>

distributions on the Notes or the Certificates and costs and expenses in
defending against the same.

         (d) The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Indenture Trustee and the
Owner Trustee for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or
expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Indenture
Trustee or the Owner Trustee, arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance or administration of this Trust and their duties hereunder, including
the costs and expenses of defending against any claim or liability in connection
with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder. The
Servicer agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustees, upon their written request,
for all reasonable expenses, disbursements or advances incurred or made by the
Trustees in connection with the administration of this Trust (including the
reasonable compensatory expenses and disbursements of counsel and of all persons
not regularly in the employ of the Trustees).

Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Noteholders,
except as provided under this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining
from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement or for errors in
judgment; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer
or any such person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of
duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this
Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Servicer 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.

         (b) Except as provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be

with this Agreement, and that in its opinion may cause it to incur any expense
or liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Servicer may undertake any reasonable
action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of the Transaction
Documents and the rights and duties of the parties to the Transaction Documents
and the interests of the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement and the
Noteholders under the Indenture. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Servicer and the Servicer will not be entitled to be
reimbursed therefor.

         SECTION 8.12. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF SERVICER. Any Person into
which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation, or other

<PAGE>

conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any
Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the business of the Servicer
(which Person assumes the obligations of the Servicer), shall be the successor
of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer shall give prior written notice of any
such merger or consolidation to which it is a party to the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Rating Agencies.

         SECTION 8.13. SERVICER NOT TO RESIGN. Subject to the provisions of
SECTION 8.03, Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it as Servicer under this Agreement except upon determination that
the performance of its duties under this Agreement shall no longer be
permissible under applicable law. Notice of any such determination permitting
the resignation of Servicer shall be communicated to the Owner Trustee and the

time) and any such determination shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to
such effect delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee

responsibilities and rights of the predecessor Servicer in accordance with
SECTION 8.04.

Finance, Inc. acts as the Servicer, the Servicer may at any time without notice
or consent (a) subcontract substantially all its duties under this Agreement to
any corporation more than 50% of the voting stock of which is owned, directly or
indirectly, by Aon Corporation or (b) perform specific duties as servicer under
this Agreement through other subcontractors; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, in each
case, no such delegation or subcontracting shall relieve the Servicer of its
responsibilities with respect to such duties as to which the Servicer shall
remain primarily responsible with respect thereto.

                          DEALER AUTO RECEIVABLES CORP.


                             PRESIDENT'S CERTIFICATE

         the Articles of Incorporation of the Depositor, together with all
         amendments thereto as in effect on the date hereof.

                  (2) There has been no other amendment or other document filed
         affecting the Articles of Incorporation of the Depositor since _____,

                  (3) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT II is a Certificate of the
         Secretary of State of the State of Delaware dated August __, 2000
         stating that the Depositor is duly incorporated under the laws of the
         State of Delaware and is in good standing.

                  (4) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT III is a true and correct copy
         of the By-laws of the Depositor, as amended, which were in full force
         and effect on August 1, 2000, and at all times subsequent thereto.

                  (5) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT IV is a true and correct copy
         of resolutions adopted pursuant to the unanimous written consent of the
         Board of Directors of the Depositor relating to the execution, delivery
         and performance of the Agreement; the Transfer and Sale Agreement dated
         as of the Effective Date between the Depositor and Premier Auto
         Finance, L.P.; the Trust Agreement dated as of the Effective Date
         between the Depositor and the Chase Manhattan Bank USA, National
         Association (the "OWNER TRUSTEE"), as Owner Trustee; the Administration
         Agreement dated as of the Effective Date among the Depositor, the
         Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and Premier, as Administrator; the
         Underwriting Agreement dated August 17, 2000 among the Depositor,
         Premier, Virginia Surety Company and Chase Securities Inc. as
         representative of the underwriters (collectively, the "PROGRAM
         AGREEMENTS"). Said resolutions have not been amended, modified,
         annulled or revoked, and are on the date hereof in full force and


                                      B-1

<PAGE>

         effect and are the only resolutions relating to these matters which
         have been adopted by the Board of Directors.

                  (6) To the best of my knowledge after reasonable
         investigation, there has been no material adverse change in the
         condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or
         business prospects of the Depositor, whether or not arising in the
         ordinary course of business since August 17, 2000.

                  (7) To the best of my knowledge after reasonable
         investigation, all federal, state and local taxes of the Depositor due
         and owing as of the date hereof have been paid.

                  (8) All representations and warranties of the Depositor
         contained in the Program Agreements or any other related documents, or
         in any document, certificate or financial or other statement delivered
         in connection therewith are true and correct as of the date hereof.

                  (9) There is no action, investigation or proceeding pending
         or, to our knowledge, threatened against the Depositor before any
         court, administrative agency or other tribunal (a) asserting the
         invalidity of the Program Agreements; (b) seeking to prevent the
         consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Program
         Agreements; or (c) which is likely materially and adversely to affect
         the Depositor's performance of its obligations under, or the validity
         or enforceability of, the Program Agreements.

                  (10) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, and no
         notice to or filing with, any governmental agency or body or state or
         federal court is required to be obtained by the Depositor for the
         Depositor's consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
         Program Agreements, except such as have been obtained or made and such
         as may be required under the blue sky laws of any jurisdiction in
         connection with the issuance and sale of the Certificates.

                  (11) The Depositor is not a party to any agreements or
         instruments evidencing or governing indebtedness for money borrowed or
         by which the Depositor or its property is bound (other than the Program
         Agreements). Neither Premier Auto Finance L.P.'s transfer and
         assignment of the Contract Assets to the Depositor, the Depositor's
         concurrent transfer and assignment of the Trust Corpus to the Trust,
         nor the concurrent pledge of the Collateral by the Trust to the
         Indenture Trustee nor the issuance and sale of the Certificates and the
         Notes, nor the execution and delivery of the Program Agreements, nor
         the consummation of any other of the transactions contemplated therein,
         will violate or conflict with any agreement or instrument to which the
         Depositor is a party or by which it is otherwise bound.

                  (12) In connection with the transfer of Contracts and related
         collateral contemplated in the Agreement, (a) the Depositor has not
         made such transfer with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any
         creditor of the Depositor, and (b) the Depositor has not received less
         than a reasonably equivalent value in exchange for such transfer, is
         not on the date thereof insolvent (nor will become insolvent as a
         result thereof), is not


                                      B-2

<PAGE>

         engaged (or about to engage) in a business or transaction for which it
         has unreasonably small capital, and does not intend to incur or believe
         it will incur debts beyond its ability to pay when matured.

                  (13) Each of the agreements and conditions of the Depositor to
         be performed on or before the Closing Date pursuant to the Program
         Agreements have been performed in all material respects.


                  (14) The undersigned holds the position set forth under
         his/her name below. The undersigned has diligently investigated and has
         taken all steps reasonably necessary to verify the information set
         forth in this Certificate. The undersigned has examined such corporate
         records, and has made such inquiries of officers, directors, executives
         and financial advisers of DARC as the undersigned has deemed reasonable
         or necessary to ensure the accuracy of the representations set forth
         herein.


         It is understood and acknowledged that the undersigned is executing
this Certificate not in an individual capacity but solely in his/her capacity
as an officer and is without any personal liability as to the matters
contained in this Certificate.

                           PREMIER AUTO FINANCE, INC.


                             PRESIDENT'S CERTIFICATE

         The undersigned certifies that he is President of Premier Auto
Finance, Inc. ("PREMIER"), and that as such is duly authorized to execute and
deliver this certificate on behalf of Premier, as Servicer, in connection
with the Sale and Servicing Agreement (the "SALE AND SERVICING AGREEMENT")
dated as of August 24, 2000 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") by and among Premier, as
Servicer, Dealer Auto Receivables Corp. ("DARC"), The Bank of New York, as
Indenture Trustee and Dealer Auto Receivables Owner Trust 2000-1 ("ISSUER"),
(all capitalized terms used herein without definition having the respective
meanings set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement), and further
certifies as follows:

                  (1) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT I is a true and correct copy of
         the Articles of Incorporation of Premier, together with all amendments
         thereto as in effect on the date hereof.

                  (2) There has been no other amendment or other document filed
         affecting the Articles of Incorporation of Premier since ____________,
         and no such amendment has been authorized by the Board of Directors or
         shareholders of Premier.

                  (3) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT II is a Certificate of the
         Secretary of State of the State of Delaware dated August __, 2000
         stating that Premier is duly incorporated under the laws of the State

                  (4) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT III is a true and correct copy

         1, 2000 and at all times subsequent thereto.

                  (5) Attached hereto as EXHIBIT IV is a true and correct copy
         of resolutions adopted pursuant to a unanimous written consent of the
         Board of Directors of Premier and relating to the authorization,
         execution, delivery and performance of the Sale and Servicing
         Agreement; the Underwriting Agreement dated August 17, 2000 among
         Premier, DARC, Virginia Surety Company, Inc. and Chase Securities Inc.

<PAGE>

                  (6) No event with respect to Premier has occurred and is
         continuing which would constitute a Servicer Default or an event that,
         with notice or the passage of time, would constitute a Servicer Default
         under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. To the best of my knowledge
         after reasonable investigation, there has been no material adverse
         change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings,
         business affairs or business prospects of Premier, whether or not
         arising in the ordinary course of business, since August 17, 2000.

                  (7) To the best of my knowledge after reasonable
         investigation, all federal, state and local taxes of Premier due and
         owing as of the date hereof have been paid.

                  (8) All representations and warranties of Premier contained in
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Underwriting Agreement and the
         Administration Agreement (collectively, the "PROGRAM AGREEMENTS") or in
         any document, certificate or financial or other statement delivered in
         connection therewith are true and correct as of the date hereof.

                  (9) There is no action, investigation or proceeding pending
         or, to my knowledge, threatened against Premier before any court,
         administrative agency or other tribunal (a) asserting the invalidity of
         any Program Agreement to which Premier is a party; or (b) which is
         likely materially and adversely to affect Premier's performance of its
         obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, the Program
         Agreements.

                  (10) No consent, approval, authorization or order of, and no
         notice to or filing with, any governmental agency or body or state or
         federal court is required to be obtained by Premier for Premier's
         consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Program
         Agreements, except such as have been obtained or made and such as may
         be required under the blue sky laws of any jurisdiction in connection
         with the issuance and sale of the Notes or Certificates.

                  (11) SCHEDULE A hereto contains a complete list of all
         material agreements or instruments evidencing or governing indebtedness
         for money borrowed to which Premier is a party or by which Premier or
         its property is bound. Neither the Seller's transfer and assignment of
         the Contract Assets to DARC, DARC's concurrent assignment of the Trust
         Corpus to the Trust, nor the concurrent assignment by the Trust of the
         Collateral to the Indenture Trustee, nor the issuance and sale of the
         Notes or Certificates or the entering into of the Program Agreements,
         nor the consummation of any other of the transactions contemplated
         therein, will violate or conflict with any agreement or instrument to
         which Premier or the Seller is a party or by which it is otherwise
         bound.

                  (12) The sole shareholder of Premier is Aon Credit Services
         Corporation, a Delaware corporation, which has its chief executive
         office and only office in Chicago, Illinois, and has no other offices

         the date hereof.

                  (10) There is no action, investigation or proceeding pending

         administrative agency or other tribunal (a) asserting the invalidity of
         any Program Agreement to which Premier is a party; or (b) which is
         likely materially and adversely to affect Premier's performance of its

         Agreements.

                  (12) SCHEDULE A hereto contains a complete list of all
         material agreements or instruments evidencing or governing indebtedness
         for money borrowed to which Premier is a party or by which Premier or
         its property is bound. Neither the Premier's transfer and assignment of
         the Contract Assets to DARC, DARC's concurrent transfer and assignment
         of the Trust Corpus to the Trust, nor the concurrent pledge by the
         Trust of the Collateral to the Indenture Trustee, nor the issuance and
         sale of the Notes or Certificates or the entering into of the Program
         Agreements, nor the consummation of any other of the transactions
         contemplated therein, will violate or conflict with any agreement or
         instrument to which Premier is a party or by which it is otherwise
         bound.

                  (13) In connection with the transfers of Contracts and related
         assets contemplated in the Transfer and Sale Agreement, (a) Premier has
         not made such transfer with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud
         any creditor of Premier and (b) Premier has not received less than a
         reasonably equivalent value in exchange for such transfer, is not on
         the date hereof insolvent (nor will Premier become insolvent as a
         result thereof), is not engaged (or about to engage) in a business or
         transaction for which it has unreasonably small capital, and does not
         intend to incur or believe it will incur debts beyond its ability to
         pay when matured.

                  (14) Each of the agreements and conditions of Premier to be
         performed or satisfied on or before the Closing Date under the Program
         Agreements has been performed or satisfied in all material respects.

                  (15) Each Contract being transferred pursuant to the Transfer
         and Sale Agreement is evidenced by a written agreement providing for a
         repayment obligation as well as a security interest in the related
         Financed Vehicle securing such obligation, and conforms as to these
         matters in all material respects with the form of written Contract
         provided as EXHIBIT A hereto (with such minor variations as to specific
         terms as may be required or deemed desirable in respect of the laws or
         requirements of particular states).

                  (16) Premier has not executed for filing any UCC financing
         statements listing the Contract Assets as collateral other than
         financing statements relating to the transactions contemplated in the
         Transfer and Sale Agreement and in the agreements listed on SCHEDULE A
         hereto.

                  (17) The undersigned holds the position set forth under

                    [Seller's Representations and Warranties]

         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING EACH CONTRACT. The Seller
represents and warrants as to each Contract as of the Closing Date that:

                  (a) LIST OF CONTRACTS. The information set forth in the List
         of Contracts is true, complete and correct in all material respects as
         of the Cutoff Date.

                  (b) PAYMENTS. As of the Cutoff Date, the most recent scheduled
         payment with respect to any Contract either had been made or was not
         delinquent for more than 30 days. To the best of the Seller's
         knowledge, all payments made on each Contract were made by or on behalf
         of the respective Obligor.

                  (c) NO WAIVERS. As of the Closing Date, the terms of the
         Contracts have not been waived, altered or modified in any respect,
         except by instruments or documents included in the related Contract
         File.

                  (d) BINDING OBLIGATION. Each Contract is a valid and binding
         payment obligation of the Obligor thereunder and is enforceable in
         accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited
         by insolvency, bankruptcy, moratorium, reorganization, or other similar
         laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally.

                  (e) NO DEFENSES. No Contract is subject to any right of
         rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of
         usury, and the operation of any of the terms of such Contract or the
         exercise of any right thereunder will not render the Contract
         unenforceable in whole or in part or subject to any right of
         rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of
         usury, and no such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense
         has been asserted or threatened with respect thereto.

                  (f) INSURANCE. Each Contract requires the related Obligor to
         maintain physical damage insurance (i) in an amount not less than the
         value of the Financed Vehicle at the time of origination of the
         Contract, (ii) naming the Seller as a loss payee and (iii) insuring
         against loss and damage due to fire, theft, transportation, collision
         and other risks covered by comprehensive coverage, and all premiums due
         on such insurance have been paid in full from the date of the
         Contract's origination.

                  (g) ORIGINATION. Each Contract was originated by a retailer of
         new or used automobiles or other third party that finances the sale of
         new or used motor vehicles in the ordinary course of its business which
         dealer or third party had all necessary licenses and permits to
         originate the Contracts in the state where such dealer or third party
         was located, was fully and properly executed by the parties thereto,
         and has been purchased by the Seller in the regular course of its
         business or directly originated by the Seller in the ordinary course of
         its business. To the best of the Seller's knowledge, each Contract was
         sold by such dealer or other third party to the Seller without any
         fraud on the part of such dealer or third party.


                                      J-1
<PAGE>

                  (h) LAWFUL ASSIGNMENT. No Contract was originated in or is
         subject to the laws of any jurisdiction whose laws would make the sale,
         transfer and assignment of the Contract under this Agreement or under
         the Sale and Servicing Agreement or the pledge of the Contract under
         the Indenture unlawful, void or voidable.

                  (i) COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. None of the Contracts, the
         origination of the Contracts by the dealers or other third parties, the
         purchase of the Contracts by the Seller, the sale of the Contracts by
         the Seller to the Depositor or by the Depositor to the Issuer, or any
         combination of the foregoing, violated at the time of origination or as
         of the Closing Date any requirement of any federal, state or local law
         and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, usury, truth
         in lending, motor vehicle installment loan and equal credit opportunity
         laws, applicable to the Contracts and the sale of the Financed
         Vehicles. The Seller shall, for at least the period of this Agreement,
         maintain in its possession, available for the Depositor's and the
         Trustees' inspection, and shall deliver to the Depositor or the Trustee
         upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such requirements.

                  (j) CONTRACT IN FORCE. As of the Closing Date, no Contract has
         been satisfied or subordinated in whole or in part or rescinded, and
         the related Financed Vehicle securing any Contract has not been
         released from the lien of the Contract in whole or in part.

                  (k) VALID SECURITY INTEREST. Each Contract creates a valid,
         subsisting and enforceable first priority perfected security interest
         in favor of the Seller in the Financed Vehicle covered thereby, and
         such security interest has been assigned by the Seller to the
         Depositor. The original certificate of title, certificate of lien or
         other notification (the "LIEN CERTIFICATE") issued by the body
         responsible for the registration of, and the issuance of certificates
         of title relating to, motor vehicles and liens thereon (the "REGISTRAR
         OF TITLES") of the applicable state to a secured party which indicates
         the lien of the secured party on the Financed Vehicle is recorded on
         the original certificate of title, and the original certificate of
         title for each Financed Vehicle, show, 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, the Seller as original secured party under each
         Contract as the holder of a first priority security interest in such
         Financed Vehicle. With respect to each Contract for which the Lien
         Certificate has not yet been returned from the Registrar of Titles, the
         Seller has received written evidence from the related dealer or other
         third party that such Lien Certificate showing the Seller as lienholder
         has been applied for.

                  (l) CAPACITY OF PARTIES. All parties to any Contract had
         capacity to execute such Contract and all other documents related
         thereto and to grant the security interest purported to be granted
         thereby.

                  (m) GOOD TITLE. Each Contract was originated by the Seller or
         purchased by the Seller for value and taken into possession prior to
         the Cutoff Date in the ordinary course of its business, without
         knowledge that the Contract was subject to a security interest. No
         Contract has been sold, assigned or pledged to any person other than
         the


                                      J-2
<PAGE>

         Depositor and the Issuer as the transferee of the Depositor, and prior
         to the transfer of the Contract to the Depositor, the Seller had good
         and marketable title to each Contract free and clear of any
         encumbrance, equity, loan, pledge, charge, claim or security interest
         and was the sole owner thereof and had full right to transfer the
         Contract to the Depositor and to permit the Depositor to transfer the
         same to the Issuer, and, as of the Closing Date, the Issuer will have a
         first priority perfected security interest therein.

                  (n) NO DEFAULTS. As of the Cutoff Date, no default, breach,
         violation or event permitting acceleration existed with respect to any
         Contract and no event had occurred which, with notice and the
         expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute such a
         default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration under such
         Contract. The Seller has not waived any such default, breach, violation
         or event permitting acceleration. As of the Cutoff Date, no Financed
         Vehicle had been repossessed.

                  (o) NO LIENS. As of the Closing Date there are no liens or
         claims which have been filed for work, labor, materials or unpaid taxes
         affecting the Financed Vehicle securing any Contract which are or may
         be liens prior to, or equal with, the lien of such Contract.

                  (p) ENFORCEABILITY. Each Contract contains customary and
         enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the
         holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Financed
         Vehicle of the benefits of the security.

                  (q) ONE ORIGINAL. Each Contract is evidenced by only one
         original executed Contract, which original is being held by the
         Servicer as custodian.

                  (r) NO GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS. No Obligor is the United States
         or any State government or an agency, authority, instrumentality or
         other political subdivision of the United States government or any
         state government or municipality.

                  (s) OBLIGOR BANKRUPTCY. At the Cutoff Date, no Obligor was
         subject to a bankruptcy proceeding or other insolvency proceeding.

                  (t) CHATTEL PAPER. The Contracts constitute chattel paper
         within the meaning of the UCC as in effect in the State of Illinois.

                  (u) NO IMPAIRMENT. Neither the Seller nor the Depositor has
         done anything to convey any right to any Person that would result in
         such Person having a right to payments due under the Contract or
         otherwise to impair the rights of the Issuer in any Contract or the
         proceeds thereof.

                  (v) CONTRACT NOT ASSUMABLE. No Contract is assumable by
         another Person in a manner which would release the Obligor thereof from
         such Obligor's obligations to the Depositor with respect to such
         Contract.

                  (w) OBLIGOR LOCATION. Each Contract is a U.S.
         dollar-denominated obligation and each Obligor's billing address is
         located in one of the states of the United States, the District of
         Columbia or Puerto Rico.

                  (x) LOCKBOX BANK. The Lockbox Bank is the only institution
         holding any Lockbox Account for receipt of payments from Obligors, and
         all Obligors, and only such Obligors, have been instructed to make
         payments to the Lockbox Account, and no person claiming through or
         under Seller has any claim or interest in the Lockbox or the Lockbox
         Account other than the Lockbox Bank; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, The Chase
         Manhattan Bank, N.A., shall have an interest in certain other
         collections therein not related to the Contracts.

                  (y) CONCENTRATION ACCOUNT. No person claiming through or under
         Seller has any claim or interest in the Concentration Account;
         provided, however, The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. shall have an
         interest in certain other collections therein not related to the
         Contracts.

         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING THE CONTRACTS IN THE
AGGREGATE. The Seller represents and warrants as of the Closing Date that:

                  (a) AMOUNTS. The sum of the aggregate Principal Balances
         payable by Obligors under the Contracts as of the Cutoff Date equals
         the sum of the principal balance of the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2
         Notes, the Class A-3 Notes, the Class A-4 Notes, the Class B Notes and
         the Certificates on the Closing Date.

                  (b) CHARACTERISTICS. The Contracts have the following
         characteristics: (i) all the Contracts are secured by Financed
         Vehicles; (ii) no Contract has a remaining maturity of less than 7

         final scheduled payment on the Contract with the latest maturity is due

         fixed rate Simple Interest Contract; and (vi) each Contract had a
         remaining Principal Balance of no less than $598.11 and no more than
         $60,181.84. Approximately 42.00% of the Principal Balance of the
         Contracts as of the Cutoff Date is attributable to loans for purchases
         of new Financed Vehicles and approximately 58.00% is attributable to
         loans for purchases of used Financed Vehicles. No Contract has a
         Contract Rate of less than 1.900%. No Contract was originated after the
         Cutoff Date. The first scheduled Distribution Date of the Contracts is
         due no later than September 15, 2000.

                  (c) MARKING RECORDS. As of the Closing Date, the Seller has
         caused the Computer Disk relating to the Contracts sold under the
         Transfer and Sale Agreement and concurrently reconveyed by the
         Depositor to the Issuer and pledged by the Issuer to the Indenture
         Trustee to be clearly and unambiguously marked to indicate that such
         Contracts constitute part of the Trust Corpus, are owned by the Issuer
         and constitute security for the Notes.

                  (d) NO ADVERSE SELECTION. No selection procedures adverse to
         Noteholders and Certificateholders have been employed in selecting the
         Contracts.

                  (e) TRUE SALE. The transaction contemplated by this Agreement
         constitutes a valid sale, transfer and assignment from the Seller to
         the Depositor and from the


                                      J-4
<PAGE>

         Depositor to the Issuer of all of the Seller's right, title and
         interest in the Contract Assets as of the Closing Date or creates a
         first priority security interest in the Contract Assets for the benefit
         of the Issuer as of the Closing Date.

                  (f) ALL FILINGS MADE. All filings (including, without
         limitation, UCC filings) required to be made by any Person and actions
         required to be taken or performed by any Person in any jurisdiction to

         taken or performed.

represents and warrants as of the Closing Date that:

                  (a) POSSESSION. Immediately prior to the Closing Date, the
         Servicer will have possession of each original Contract and the related
         complete Contract File, and there are and there will be no custodial
         agreements relating to the same in effect. Each of such documents which
         is required to be signed by the Obligor has been signed by the Obligor
         in the appropriate spaces. All blanks on any form have been properly
         filled in and each form has otherwise been correctly prepared. The
         complete Contract File for each Contract currently is in the possession
         of the Servicer.

                  (b) BULK TRANSFER LAWS. The transfer, assignment and
         conveyance of the Contracts and the Contract Files by the Seller
         pursuant to the Transfer and Sale Agreement and by the Depositor
         pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement is not subject to the bulk
         transfer or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any
         applicable jurisdiction.
