and Servicing Agreement and confirm that it is in readable form. If the Backup Servicer determines

reconciliation shall be reflected in the Servicer’s Certificate for such next Distribution Date.
The Backup Servicer shall only review the information provided by the Servicer in the Servicer’s
Certificate and in the Servicer’s Data File and its obligation to report any inconsistencies shall
be limited to those determinable from such information.



(c) The Backup Servicer and the Servicer shall attempt to reconcile any such inconsistencies
and/or to furnish any omitted information and the Servicer shall amend the Servicer’s Certificate
to reflect the results of the reconciliation or to include any omitted information.



(d) On or before the end of the second Business Day prior to each Determination Date, the
Servicer shall provide to the Backup Servicer, or its agent, information on the Loans and related
Contracts sufficient to enable the Backup Servicer to assume the responsibilities as successor
servicer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and service and collect the Loans and related
Contracts.



(e) The Servicer shall provide the Backup Servicer with any and all updates to the master file
data layout and copy book information necessary due to system changes or modifications, which may
require changes to the Backup Servicer’s applications necessary to read the Servicer’s Data File.



SECTION 2.2. Review and Verification.



(a) Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.1 to the contrary, on or before the end of
the second Business Day prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer and the Trust Collateral

and to verify the mathematical accuracy of the Servicer’s Certificate on an Aggregate Basis related
thereto and determine the following:




(i) that such Servicer’s Certificate is complete on its face;




(ii) that the amounts credited to and withdrawn from the Collection Account and
the balance of such account, as set forth in the records of the Trust Collateral
Agent are the same as the amount set forth in the Servicer’s Certificate; and




(iii) that the amounts credited to and withdrawn from the Reserve Account and
the balance of such account, as set forth in the records of the Trust Collateral
Agent are the same as the amount set forth in the Servicer’s Certificate.



(b) The Backup Servicer shall, on or before the day prior to the Distribution Date with
respect to any Collection Period, verify the mathematical accuracy of the Servicer’s Certificate in
its entirety, which shall include but not be limited to the following:




(i) the amount of the related distribution allocable to principal;

related Collection Period and/or due but unpaid with respect to such Collection
Period or prior Collection Periods, as the case may be;




(vii) the Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall, if any, and the Class B
Interest Carryover Shortfall, if any;




(viii) the total amount of Collections for the related Collection Period; and




(ix) the aggregate Purchase Amount for the Ineligible Loans and Ineligible
Contracts, if any, that was paid in such period.



(c) The Backup Servicer shall provide written notice to the Trust Collateral Agent with
respect to whether there are any inconsistencies or deficiencies with respect to its review and
verification set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above and, if any, shall provide a description
thereof as set forth in Section 2.10 hereof. In the event of any discrepancy between the
information set forth in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, as calculated by the Servicer, from that
determined or calculated by the Backup Servicer, the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the
Servicer and, if within five (5) days of such notice being provided to the Servicer, the Backup
Servicer and the Servicer are unable to resolve such discrepancy, the Backup Servicer shall
promptly notify the Trust Collateral Agent of such discrepancy.




(i) Other than as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Backup Servicer shall have no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer
the performance of the Servicer and shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation,
or liability (collectively “Liability”) for any action taken or omitted by
the Servicer.




(ii) The Backup Servicer shall consult with the Servicer as may be necessary
from time to time to perform or carry out the Backup Servicer’s obligations
hereunder, including the obligation, if requested in writing by the Trust Collateral
Agent, to succeed within thirty (30) days to the duties and obligations of the
Servicer pursuant to Section 2.3.




(iii) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer may
accept and reasonably rely on all accounting, records and work of the Servicer
without audit, and the Backup Servicer shall have no Liability for the acts or
omissions of the Servicer or for the inaccuracy of any data provided, produced or
supplied by the Servicer. If any error, inaccuracy or omission (collectively,
“Errors”) exists in any information received from the Servicer, and such
Errors should cause or materially contribute to the Backup Servicer making or
continuing any Errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), the Backup
Servicer shall have no Liability for such Continued Errors; provided,
however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup Servicer against
any Liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in discovering or correcting any Error or in the
performance of its duties hereunder or under the Sale and Servicing Agreement. In
the event the Backup Servicer becomes aware of Errors and/or Continued Errors which,
in the opinion of the Backup Servicer impairs its ability to perform its services
hereunder, the Backup Servicer: (i) shall promptly notify the Servicer of such
Errors and/or Continued Errors; and (ii) may use its best efforts to reconstruct and
reconcile such data as it deems appropriate to correct such Errors and/or Continued
Errors and prevent future Continued Errors. The Backup Servicer shall be entitled
to recover its costs thereby expended from the Servicer.




(iv) The Backup Servicer and its officers, directors, employees and agents
shall be indemnified by the Servicer and the Issuer, jointly and severally, from and
against all claims, damages, losses or expenses reasonably incurred by the Backup
Servicer (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) arising out of claims
asserted against the Backup Servicer on any matter arising out of this Agreement to
the extent the act or omission giving rise to the claim accrues before the
Assumption Date, except for any claims, damages, losses or expenses arising from the
Backup Servicer’s own willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The
obligations of the Servicer and the Issuer under this Section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the earlier resignation or removal of the Backup
Servicer.




(v) To the extent the Backup Servicer requires any information supplementing
reports or data that is to be provided to it pursuant to the Basic Documents in
order to complete its verification duties, the Backup Servicer’s verification duties
are conditioned upon timely receipt by the Backup Servicer of such information.

Trust Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Majority Noteholders) of the

provision of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall be
controlling.



(b) In the event of an assumption by the Backup Servicer of the Servicer-Related Activities of
Credit Acceptance under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall not be
obligated to perform the obligations imposed in the following Sections of the Sale and Servicing

Responsible Officer has actual knowledge), 4.01(c), 4.01(d)(i), 4.01(d)(ii), 4.04, 4.06(a)(iii),

Agreement as to action taken by it as successor Servicer), 7.03, 7.06, 8.01(v), 9.05 or 10.01(b).



SECTION 2.4. Servicing and Retention of Servicer.



(a) Subject to early termination of the Backup Servicer due to the occurrence of a Backup
Servicer Event of Default, or pursuant to Article 4, or as otherwise provided in this Section
2.4, on and after the Assumption Date, the Backup Servicer shall be responsible for the
servicing, administering, managing and collection of the Loans and Contracts in accordance herewith
and the Sale and Servicing Agreement.



(b) In the event of a Backup Servicer Event of Default, the Trust Collateral Agent may, or, at
the direction of the Majority Noteholders, shall terminate the Backup Servicer as successor
Servicer and Backup Servicer hereunder. In addition, prior to the Assumption Date, the Trust
Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, or, at the direction of the Majority Noteholders, shall,
without cause, upon not less than 30 days’ advance written notice, terminate the Backup Servicer as
successor Servicer and Backup Servicer hereunder. Upon the termination or resignation of the
Backup Servicer hereunder, the Majority Noteholders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Backup Servicer (the “Successor Backup Servicer”) and enter into a backup servicing
agreement with such Successor Backup Servicer at such time and exercise all of its rights under
Section 4.15 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that if such
termination or resignation of the Backup Servicer occurs prior to the Assumption Date, the
appointment of the Successor Backup Servicer shall be mutually acceptable to Credit Acceptance and
the Majority Noteholders. Such backup servicing agreement shall specify the duties and obligations
of the Successor Backup Servicer, and all references herein and in the Sale and Servicing Agreement
to the Backup Servicer shall be deemed to refer to such Successor Backup Servicer.



(c) The Backup Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it by this
Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, as successor servicer or as Backup Servicer, as
applicable, except upon a determination that by reason of a change in legal requirements, the
performance of its duties hereunder or under the Sale and Servicing Agreement would cause it to be
in violation of such legal requirements in a manner which would have a material adverse effect on
the Backup Servicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Backup Servicer
pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) shall be evidenced by an opinion of counsel to such effect
delivered and acceptable to the Majority Noteholders. No resignation of the Backup Servicer shall
become effective until an entity reasonably acceptable to the Majority Noteholders shall have
assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Backup Servicer.



(d) Any Person: (i) into which the Backup Servicer may be merged or consolidated; (ii)
resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Backup Servicer shall be a party; (iii)

Servicer; or (iv) succeeding to the business of the Backup Servicer, in any of the foregoing cases
shall execute an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Backup Servicer under
this Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement, whether or not such assumption agreement is
executed, shall be the successor to the Backup Servicer under this Agreement and the Sale and
Servicing Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties to this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, anything herein or
therein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that nothing contained
herein or therein shall be deemed to release the Backup Servicer from any obligation hereunder or
under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.



(e) Following the Assumption Date, beginning with the calendar year ending December 31, 2010,
the Backup Servicer shall be required to deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Trust Collateral
Agent on or before one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of the Backup Servicer’s fiscal

report in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit I and certified by the chief
financial officer of the Backup Servicer, certifying that no Backup Servicer Event of Default and
no event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, would become a Backup Servicer
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, if any such Backup Servicer Event of Default or
other event has occurred and is continuing, such a Backup Servicer Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, the action which the Backup Servicer has taken or proposes to take with respect
thereto, shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Trust Collateral Agent.



SECTION 2.5. Servicing Duties of the Backup Servicer. On and after the Assumption
Date:



(a) The Backup Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary or
advisable to collect all amounts due under the Loans and Contracts from time to time, all in

systems, and no later than five (5) Business Days after the receipt thereof, shall confirm in
writing to Credit Acceptance the accuracy and completeness of the conversion; provided,
however, that such confirmation shall not be deemed to apply to the accuracy of the Live

any changes in format with respect to either Credit Acceptance or the Backup Servicer, Credit
Acceptance and the Backup Servicer shall coordinate with each other for the replacement of the data

any and all of the Loans, including, without limitation, endorsing Credit Acceptance’s name on
checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing the Loans and Contracts;
provided, however, that the Trust Collateral Agent shall not have an affirmative
obligation to carry out such duties.



SECTION 2.9. Liability of the Backup Servicer; Standard of Care.



(a) The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for its actions or omissions hereunder except for
its negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement not caused by another party to this
Agreement, or for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made expressly by the
Backup Servicer.



(b) The Backup Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Servicer and its
respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses,
losses, claims, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage
or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Servicer through the Backup Servicer’s breach of
this Agreement, the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Backup Servicer in the
performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its
obligations and duties under this Agreement.



(c) The Servicer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Backup Servicer and its
respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all costs, expenses,

this Agreement, the willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Servicer in the performance
of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties
under this Agreement.



(d) The Backup Servicer may accept and reasonably rely on all accounting and servicing records

The Servicer agrees to indemnify (subject to the limitation provided in subsection (e) below) and
hold harmless the Backup Servicer, its respective officers, employees and agents against any and
all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any
other costs, fees and expenses that the Backup Servicer may sustain in any way related to the
negligence or misconduct of any Third Party with respect to the Loans or Contracts. The Backup
Servicer shall have no Liability for the acts or omissions of any such Third Party or for the
inaccuracy of any data provided, produced or supplied by such Third Party. If any Error exists in
any information provided to the Backup Servicer and such Errors cause or materially contribute to
the Backup Servicer making a Continuing Error, the Backup Servicer shall have no liability for such
Continued Errors; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the
Backup Servicer against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in discovering or correcting any error or in the
performance of its duties contemplated herein.



(e) Indemnification under this Article shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the indemnifying party has made any indemnity
payments pursuant to this Article and the recipient thereafter collects any of such amounts from
others, the recipient shall promptly repay such amounts collected to the indemnifying party,
together with any interest earned thereon.



(f) In performing the Service-Related Activities contemplated by this Agreement, the Backup
Servicer agrees to comply in all respects with the applicable state and federal laws and will carry
out such activities with the same degree of care as that provided for the Servicer under the Sale
and Servicing Agreement. The Backup Servicer shall maintain all state and federal licenses and
franchises necessary for it to perform Service-Related Activities. The Backup Servicer shall not
have any Liability for any Error or Continued Error by the Servicer, or for any error, inaccuracy
or omission of the Servicer before the Backup Servicer assumes the Service-Related Activities.



(g) Neither the Backup Servicer nor any of the directors or officers or employees or agents of
the Backup Servicer shall be under any liability to the Servicer or any party to this Agreement or
the Sale and Servicing Agreement except as provided in this Agreement, for any action taken or for
refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup Servicer or any
such person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of a breach of this
Agreement or willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence (excluding errors in judgment) in
the performance of duties, by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this
Agreement or any violation of law by the Backup Servicer or such person, as the case may be. The
Backup Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Backup Servicer may
conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
document, certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, statement, consent, resolution, entitlement
order, approval or conversation believed by it to be genuine and made by the proper person and upon
the advice or opinion of counsel or other experts selected by it. The Backup Servicer shall not be
liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Backup Servicer,
unless it shall be proven that the Backup Servicer was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent
facts.



(h) The Backup Servicer shall maintain its existence and rights as a national banking
association under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and will obtain and preserve
its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have
an adverse effect on the validity or enforceability of any Contract, Dealer Agreement, Purchase
Agreement, this Agreement or on the ability of the Backup Servicer to perform its duties under this
Agreement.



(i) The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.



(j) The Backup Servicer shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters
stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,

expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable Federal or State
