Such financing statements may describe as the collateral covered thereby “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Agreement.

Such legend shall be in bold, in type face at least as large as 12 point and shall be entirely in capital letters.
(b)    The Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges its acceptance, on behalf of the Secured Parties, of the pledge by the Borrower of the Loans and all other Collateral.

The Collateral Agent agrees to take such measures as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Borrower to protect and maintain the security and confidentiality of such information.

-34-









(xii)    TWELFTH, to the Borrower any remaining amounts.
(b)    One Business Day per calendar month, the date of which is to be chosen by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall, upon two Business Days’ prior written request of the Borrower, withdraw from the Collection Account an amount not to exceed the amount on deposit therein on the date of such request. The Collateral Agent shall distribute such amount to the Deal Agent for the account of the Lender, to be distributed by the Deal Agent to the Lender as a payment in reduction of Capital. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.7(b) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to effect any such withdrawal or the Deal Agent make any such distribution until an Officer of the Servicer or a representative of the Servicer designated by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer has certified to the Collateral Agent and the Deal Agent in writing (which shall include electronic transmission) that it reasonably believes that at the end of the related Collection Period the sum of Available Funds and Excess Reserve Amount, after giving effect to such payment, will be greater than the amount needed to make the payments required pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(i) through (xi).  Any such prepayment of principal shall include all accrued and unpaid Interest and any applicable Breakage Costs relating thereto.
(c)    (i) If on any Payment Date the amount paid pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(iv) and (v) is insufficient to cover all amounts due thereunder on such Payment Date the Collateral Agent shall withdraw from the Reserve Account an amount equal to the lesser of such shortfall and the amount of funds on deposit in the Reserve Account (such withdrawal, a “Reserve Advance”) and deposit such amount to the Collection Account.  The Collateral Agent shall pay such amount to the Deal Agent for payment to the Lender.
(ii)    If on any Payment Date during the Amortization Period, the amount paid pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(vi) is insufficient to reduce Capital to zero, the Deal Agent, in its sole discretion, may direct the Collateral Agent to withdraw any or all of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, and pay such amount to the Deal Agent, for payment to the Lender in respect of interest and principal and all other Aggregate Unpaids payable to the Lender at such time.
Section 2.8.    Take-Out.
(a)    On any Business Day (the “Take-Out Date”), but subject to the limitations below (including those contained in clause (d) below), the Borrower shall have the right to effect a Take-Out and require the Collateral Agent to release its security interest and Lien on the related Contracts and Loans, subject to the following terms and conditions:
(i)    The Borrower shall have given the Deal Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Servicer at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intent to effect the Take-Out, which notice shall be irrevocable; provided, however, failure to effect such Take-Out on the Take-Out Date shall not result in a Termination Event, but the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any Breakage Costs and any other losses and Indemnified Amounts incurred by the Lender and the other Indemnified Parties in connection therewith.


-35-









(ii)    Unless the Take-Out is to be effected on a Payment Date (in which case the relevant calculations with respect to such Take-Out shall be reflected on the applicable Monthly Report), the Servicer shall deliver to the Deal Agent an Officer’s Certificate, together with evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Deal Agent (which evidence may consist solely of the Officer’s Certificate signed by an officer of the Servicer) that the Borrower shall have sufficient funds on the related Take-Out Date to effect the contemplated Take-Out in accordance with this Agreement.  In effecting the Take-Out, the Borrower may use the proceeds of sales of the Loans (which sales must be made in arm’s length transactions).
(iii)    After giving effect to the Take-Out and the release to the Borrower of the Loans and related Contracts on the Take-Out Date, (x) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.1 and 4.2 hereof shall continue to be correct in all material respects, except to the extent relating to an earlier date and (y) neither an Unmatured Termination Event nor a Termination Event shall have resulted.
(iv)    On the Take-Out Date, the Collateral Agent shall have received, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Hedge Counterparties, as applicable, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the sum of:  (A) the Capital being paid plus (B) an amount equal to the related unpaid Interest plus (C) an aggregate amount equal to the sum of all other amounts due and owing to the Deal Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lender, the Backup Servicer, the Successor Servicer, the Hedge Counterparties and the other Secured Parties, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent accrued to such date (including, without limitation, Breakage Costs and Hedge Costs) plus (D) all other Aggregate Unpaids.  No reduction of the Capital shall be given effect unless the Borrower has complied with the terms of any Hedging Agreement requiring that any derivative transaction related thereto be terminated in whole or in part as a result of any such reduction in the Capital and the Borrower has paid all Hedge Costs due to the relevant Hedge Counterparty for any such termination.
(v)    Upon receipt of the amount set forth in clause (iv) above, the Collateral Agent shall apply such amounts first to the pro rata reduction of the Capital, second to the payment of accrued Interest on the amount of the Capital to be repaid and to the payment of any Breakage Costs, by paying such amounts to the Lender, and third to pay any Hedge Costs related to such reduction of the Capital due to the relevant Hedge Counterparty, and fourth to pay all other Aggregate Unpaids related to such reduction of the Capital due to the relevant party.
(vi)    The Borrower shall certify in writing to the Collateral Agent and the Deal Agent that no adverse selection was employed in the selection of the Loans and Contracts to be released.
(vii)    On the Take-Out Date, the Servicer shall submit to the Deal Agent a report setting forth (A) the Forecasted Collections in respect of the Loans remaining as part of the Collateral after giving effect to such Take-Out, (B) a calculation of the Borrowing Base (and material components thereof) after giving effect to such Take-Out and (C) such 


-36-









other information regarding the Collateral remaining after the Take-Out as the Deal Agent may reasonably request.
(viii)    Any sale or other transfer of Loans and related Contracts by the Borrower in connection with any Take-Out shall be made in an arm’s length transaction, the terms of which shall state that such sale or other transfer is made without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Borrower; provided that the Borrower may represent and warrant that it is selling or transferring such Loans and Contracts free and clear of any Lien created by or through the Borrower.
Upon the occurrence of any Take-Out the Borrower and the Servicer shall be deemed to represent and warrant that each of the foregoing conditions has been satisfied with respect thereto.
(b)    The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Lender, the Deal Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with any Take-Out (including, but not limited to, expenses incurred in connection with the release of the Lien of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and any expenses of the Lender, the Deal Agent or any other party having such an interest in the Loans in connection with such Take-Out).
(c)    In connection with any Take-Out, on the related Take-Out Date, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Lender, the Deal Agent and the other Secured Parties, shall, at the expense of the Borrower: (i) execute such instruments of release with respect to the portion of the Loans to be released to the Borrower, in favor of the Borrower as the Borrower may reasonably request; (ii) deliver any portion of the Loans to be released to the Borrower in its possession to the Borrower; and (iii) at the Borrower’s reasonable request, otherwise take such actions, and permit the Borrower to take such actions, as are necessary and appropriate to release the Lien of the Collateral Agent on the Loans to be released to the Borrower and deliver to the Borrower such Loans.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower may not effect a Take-Out more frequently than one time during any three month period.
Section 2.9.    Collections and Allocations.

The Servicer shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, all Collections on deposit in the form of available funds in the Credit Acceptance Payment Account to the Collection Account by the close of business on the second Business Day such Collections are received therein.  The Servicer shall promptly (but in no event later than the second Business Day (or if the Backup Servicer has become the Successor Servicer hereunder, the third Business Day) after the receipt thereof) deposit all Collections received directly by it in the Collection Account.  The Servicer shall make such deposits or payments on the date indicated therein by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by automated clearing house (ACH) payment.
(b)    Initial Deposits.  On each Funding Date, the Servicer will deposit (in immediately available funds) into the Collection Account all Collections received on and after the applicable Cut-Off Date and through and including the day that is two days immediately preceding such Funding Date, in respect of the Loans.

(ii)    On the date on which Capital is reduced to zero and all Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, all Collateral is released from the Lien of this Agreement, and this Agreement is terminated, any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be released to the Borrower.
(d)    Allocation of Collections.  The Servicer will allocate Collections monthly in accordance with the actual amount of Collections received.  The Servicer (including any applicable Successor Servicer) shall determine each month the amount of Collections received during such month which constitutes amounts which, pursuant to the terms of any Dealer Agreement, are required to be remitted to the applicable Dealer (such collections, “Dealer Collections”) and shall so notify the Collateral Agent.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Collateral Agent, at the direction of the Servicer, shall distribute on each Payment Date: (i) to the Borrower, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Dealer Collections received during or with respect to the prior Collection Period and (ii) to the Backup Servicer, if it has become the Successor Servicer, an amount equal to any Repossession Expenses related to the prior Collection Period prior to the distribution of Available Funds pursuant to Section 2.7.

Any amounts received in the Agent’s Account after 10:00 a.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next subsequent Business Day and the Deal Agent shall distribute such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such next subsequent Business Day.  The Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Secured Parties interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder 3.0% per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand; provided, however, that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law.  All computations of interest and all computations of Interest and other fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.
(b)    Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of Interest, interest or any fee payable hereunder, as the case may be.


-38-









(c)    If the Advance requested by the Borrower for any Funding Date and approved by the Lender and the Deal Agent pursuant to Section 2.1 and Section 2.3, is not made or effectuated for any reason other than the Lender’s failure to honor its obligations hereunder, as the case may be, on the requested Funding Date, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender against Breakage Costs, any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by the Lender, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits, net of anticipated profits in the reemployment of such funds in the manner determined by the Lender), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Lender to fund or maintain the Funding.

Section 2.14.    Taxes.
(a)    All payments made by an Obligor in respect of each Loan and each Contract and all payments made by the Borrower, Originator or Credit Acceptance under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes.  If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Deal Agent or any Secured Party, then the amount payable to such Person will be increased (such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this Agreement after withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes on such increase) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been deducted or withheld.  The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts, however, will not apply with respect to net income or franchise taxes imposed on the Lender or the Deal Agent, respectively, with respect to payments required to be made by the Borrower or Credit Acceptance under this Agreement, by a taxing jurisdiction in which the Lender or Deal Agent is organized, conducts business or is paying taxes (in either case of conducting business or paying taxes, other than solely as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents) as of the Effective Date (as the case may be).

All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date a written invoice therefor is delivered to the Borrower.

(a)    (i) On any Payment Date after the last day of any Collection Period during the Amortization Period as of which the amount of Capital shall be less than or equal to 10% of the amount of Capital as of the beginning of the Amortization Period, Credit Acceptance shall have the option to purchase the Loans, subsequent Collections and Related Security for a price equal to the aggregate Release Price for the Loans.  To exercise such option, Credit Acceptance shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to such aggregate Release Price plus accrued Interest, Hedge Costs and Breakage Costs in immediately available funds.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Credit Acceptance shall not exercise such option unless the amount so deposited equals or exceeds the Retransfer Amount for the Loans.
(ii)  Credit Acceptance shall have the right to purchase from time to time Loans, subsequent Collections and Related Security (as selected by the Borrower without adverse selection) so long as in the aggregate such purchases do not exceed 1.0% of the Loans based upon the Aggregate Outstanding Eligible Loan Net Balance on the date of purchase, for an amount equal to the greater of:  (A) the Release Price plus any accrued Interest, Hedge Costs and Breakage Costs related to such Loans; and (B) the aggregate fair market value of such Loans.  Such amount shall be paid by depositing immediately available funds in the Collection Account.
(iii)  Credit Acceptance shall give at least 2 Business Days’ notice to the Collateral Agent and the Deal Agent of its intent to exercise either of the foregoing options.

The Borrower shall make a deposit to the Collection Account (for allocation pursuant to Section 2.7) in immediately available funds an amount (the “Release Price”) equal to the sum of (i): in the case of an Ineligible Loan, the product of (x) the Net Loan Balance related to such Loan as of the last day of the related Collection Period and (y) the Net Advance Rate in effect on the date of such payment; and in the case of an Ineligible Contract, the product of (x) the Outstanding Balance related to such Contract as of the last day of the related Collection Period and (y) a ratio the numerator of which is the outstanding Capital as of the date of such payment and the denominator of which is the Outstanding Balance of all Contracts as of the last day of the related Collection Period; (ii) accrued and unpaid Carrying Costs, Breakage Costs, Increased Costs, Indemnified Amounts and Additional Amounts related to such Loan or Contract through the date of such deposit; and (iii) all Hedge Costs due to the relevant Hedge Counterparties for any termination in whole or in part of one or more transactions related to the relevant Hedging Agreement, as required by the terms of any Hedging Agreement.

ARTICLE VI 
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF CONTRACTS
Section 6.1.    Servicing.
(a)    The Borrower, the Deal Agent and the Collateral Agent hereby revocably appoint Credit Acceptance as servicer hereunder and Credit Acceptance hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to manage, collect and administer each of the Loans and Contracts as Servicer.  In the event of a Servicer Termination Event, the Deal Agent shall have the right to terminate Credit Acceptance as servicer hereunder.  Upon termination of Credit Acceptance as servicer of the Loans pursuant to Section 6.11 hereof, the Deal Agent shall have the right to appoint 


-70-









a Successor Servicer and enter into a servicing agreement with such Successor Servicer at such time and exercise all of its rights under Section 6.3 hereof.  Such servicing agreement shall specify the duties and obligations of such Successor Servicer, and all references herein to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to such Successor Servicer.
(b)    The Borrower shall cause the Servicer to deposit all Collections to the Collection Account no later than two Business Days after receipt (if SST is Successor Servicer, within one (1) Business Day with respect to cleared funds, and in all other cases within three (3) Business Days of receipt).  The Servicer agrees to deposit all Collections to the Collection Account no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt (if SST is Successor Servicer, within one (1) Business Day with respect to cleared funds, and in all other cases within three (3) Business Days of receipt).
(c)    On or before 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Credit Acceptance, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, Credit Acceptance shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent public accountants acceptable to the Deal Agent (who may also render other services to Credit Acceptance or the Borrower) to furnish a report to the Collateral Agent, the Deal Agent and the Secured Parties to the effect that they have (i) compared the information contained in the Monthly Reports delivered during such fiscal year, based on a sample size provided by the Collateral Agent, with the information contained in the Loans, the Contracts and Credit Acceptance’s records and computer systems for such period, and that, on the basis of such agreed upon procedures, such firm is of the opinion that the information contained in the Monthly Reports reconciles with the information contained in the Loans and the Contracts and Credit Acceptance’s records and computer system and that the servicing of the Loans and the Contracts has been conducted in compliance with this Agreement and (ii) verified the Aggregate Outstanding Eligible Loan Balance as of the end of each Collection Period during such fiscal year, except, in each case for (A) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial (which exceptions need not be enumerated) and (B) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement.
Section 6.2.    Duties of the Servicer and Custodian.
(a)    The 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 material accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in material accordance with the Collection Guidelines and Credit Guidelines, it being understood that there shall be no recourse to the Servicer (in its capacity as such) with regard to the Loans and Contracts except as otherwise provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents.  In performing its duties as Servicer, the Servicer shall use the same degree of care and attention it employs with respect to similar contracts and loans which it services for itself or others.  Each of the Borrower, the Deal Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereby appoints as its agent the Servicer, from time to time designated pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof, to enforce its respective rights and interests in and under the Collateral.  If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Loan or a Contract (for purposes of collection or otherwise), or if in any enforcement or other legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Loan or 


-71-









a Contract, on the grounds that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Loan or Contract or on similar grounds, the Collateral Agent shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned to the Servicer, solely for the purpose of enforcement, such a Loan or Contract.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent (and Lender, if applicable) shall furnish the Servicer with any reasonably necessary and appropriate affidavit prepared by the Servicer that the Servicer may use in any such legal proceedings confirming the Servicer’s power and authority to sue and otherwise enforce the Loans and Contracts in its own name, consistent with this Section 6.2, and any powers of attorney, declarations or other documents prepared by the Servicer reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.  The Servicer shall hold in trust for the Secured Parties all Records and any amounts it receives in respect of the Collateral.  In the event that a Successor Servicer is appointed, the outgoing Servicer shall deliver to the Successor Servicer and the Successor Servicer shall hold in trust for the Borrower and the Secured Parties all records which evidence or relate to all or any part of the Collateral.
(b)    The Servicer, if other than Credit Acceptance, shall as soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to the Borrower all records in its possession which evidence or relate to indebtedness of an Obligor which is not a Loan or a Contract.
(c)    (i)    The Borrower, Deal Agent and Collateral Agent hereby revocably appoint Credit Acceptance as custodian (or if there has been a Successor Servicer appointed hereunder then such Successor Servicer shall act as custodian), and Credit Acceptance (or the Successor Servicer, if applicable) hereby accepts such appointment, to hold and maintain physical possession of the Contract Files and all Records (or with respect to any Contract constituting electronic chattel paper, to maintain “control” (for UCC purposes) of the Authoritative Electronic Copy thereof) (in such capacity together with its successors in such capacity, the “Custodian”).  The Contract Files and Records are to be delivered to the Custodian or its designated bailee by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Deal Agent and Collateral Agent within two (2) Business Days preceding the Funding Date or within 2 Business Days after each Addition Date, as the case may be, with respect to each Loan acquired on the Funding Date or Addition Date.
(ii)    The Custodian shall within 180 days after the Closing Date or Funding Date, as applicable, review 100% of the Contract Files to verify the presence of the original retail installment contract and security agreement and/or installment loans with respect to each Contract, provided, however, that the Certificate of Title or other evidence of lien with respect to a Contract need not be verified.  If the number of Contracts for which any of the foregoing documents have not been delivered to the Custodian within 180 days of the Closing Date or relevant Funding Date, as the case may be, or corrected (each such Contract, a “Nonconforming Contract”), exceeds 2% of the aggregate number of Contract Files required to be reviewed pursuant to this Section 6.2(c)(ii), the Borrower shall make a deposit to the Reserve Account only with respect to the excess number of Nonconforming Contracts, in an amount equal to the related Nonconforming Contract Payment Amount.  Once per month, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account in respect of Nonconforming Contracts shall be adjusted to account for increases or decreases in the excess number of Nonconforming Contracts and for changes in the Outstanding Balance of such Nonconforming Contracts.  


-72-









The Borrower shall, in the case of an increase, promptly deposit to the Reserve Account the amount of any such increase.  In the case of a decrease, the amount of any such decrease shall be deemed to be part of the Excess Reserve Amount.  During the Revolving Period, payments required under this Section 6.2(c)(ii) shall not be required if the Capital is equal to or less than the Borrowing Base by the amount of the payment that would otherwise be required to be made by this clause.
(iii)    The Custodian agrees to maintain the Contract Files and Records which are delivered to it at the offices of the Custodian as shall from time to time be identified to the Deal Agent by written notice.  Subject to the foregoing, Credit Acceptance may temporarily (or permanently, solely in the case of a Contract that is repurchased, liquidated or paid in full) move or transfer to an agent of the Servicer individual Contract Files or Records, or any portion thereof without notice as necessary to allow the Servicer to conduct collection and other servicing activities in accordance with its customary practices and procedures.
(iv)    The Custodian shall have the following powers and perform the following duties:
(A)    hold the Contract Files and Records for the benefit of the Secured Parties and maintain a current inventory thereof; and
(B)    carry out such policies and procedures in accordance with its customary actions with respect to the handling and custody of the Contract Files and Records so that the integrity and physical possession of the Contract Files and Records (or with respect to any Contract constituting electronic chattel paper, the integrity and “control” (for UCC purposes) of the Authoritative Electronic Copy thereof) will be maintained.
In performing its duties as custodian, the Custodian agrees to act with reasonable care, using that degree of skill and care that it exercises with respect to similar Contracts or Loans owned or held by it for its own account or for any other Person.
(v)    Credit Acceptance shall have the obligation (i) to physically segregate the Contract Files (to the extent held in physical form) from the other custodial files it is holding for its own account or on behalf of any other Person, (ii) to physically mark the Contract folders (to the extent held in physical form) to demonstrate the transfer of Contract Files and the Collateral Agent’s security interest hereunder, (iii) mark its computer records indicating the transfer of any Contract Files relating to Contracts constituting electronic chattel paper and the Collateral Agent’s security interest hereunder and (iv) with respect to each Contract constituting electronic chattel paper, cause the single “authoritative copy” (within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the UCC) to be communicated to and maintained at all times by Credit Acceptance such that the “authoritative copy” constitutes an Authoritative Electronic Copy at all times.


-73-









(d)    (i)    If (A) an Unsatisfactory Audit occurs or (B) a Termination Event, Unmatured Termination Event, Servicer Termination Event or a Potential Servicer Termination Event occurs, the Deal Agent shall have the right to terminate Credit Acceptance as the Custodian hereunder and the Deal Agent shall have the right to appoint a successor Custodian hereunder who shall assume all the rights and obligations of the “Custodian” hereunder.  On the effective date of the termination of Credit Acceptance as Servicer, Credit Acceptance shall be released of all of its obligations as Custodian arising on or after such date.  The Contract Files and Records shall be delivered by Credit Acceptance to the successor Custodian, on or before the date which is two (2) Business Days prior to such date.
(ii)    Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, Potential Servicer Termination Event, Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event, the Servicer and the Borrower shall, at the request of the Deal Agent, in the Deal Agent’s sole discretion, take all steps necessary to cause the Certificate of Title or other evidence of ownership of each Financed Vehicle to be revised to name the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties as lienholder.  Any costs associated with such revision of the Certificate of Title shall be paid by Credit Acceptance, and to the extent such costs are not paid by Credit Acceptance such unpaid costs shall be recovered as Servicer Expenses as described in Section 2.7 hereof.  In no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to expend funds in connection with this Section 6.2(d).
(iii)    The Custodian shall provide to the Deal Agent access to the Contract Files and Records and all other documentation regarding the Contracts, Dealer Agreement and the Loans and the related Financed Vehicles in such cases where the Collateral Agent is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights or interests of the Secured Parties, or by applicable statutes or regulations to review such documentation, such access being afforded without charge.
(e)    From time to time during normal business hours, at the expense of the Servicer (provided that the Deal Agent may review the Successor Servicer’s collection and administration of the Loans, Dealer Agreements and Contracts two times per calendar year, at the expense of  the party requesting such review, with prior written notice and without undue disruption of the Successor Servicer’s business before the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event at a time after the Assumption Date, and the Deal Agent and may conduct such review, with prior written notice but otherwise without limitation, at the Successor Servicer’s expense if the Servicer Termination Event is due to the actions of the current Successor Servicer and otherwise at the expense of the party requesting such review, after the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event at a time after the Assumption Date) (but at the Servicer’s expense not more than twice during any calendar year), the Deal Agent and may review the Servicer’s collection and administration of the Loans, Dealer Agreements and Contracts in order to assess compliance by the Servicer with the Servicer’s written policies and procedures, as well as with this Agreement and at the Servicer’s (provided that the Deal Agent and may review the Successor Servicer’s collection and administration of the Loans, Dealer Agreements and Contracts two times per calendar year, at the expense of  the party requesting such review, with prior written notice and without undue disruption of the Successor Servicer’s business before the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event at a time after the Assumption Date, 


-74-









and the Deal Agent may conduct such review, with prior written notice but otherwise without limitation, at the Successor Servicer’s expense if the Servicer Termination Event is due to the actions of the current Successor Servicer and otherwise at the expense of the party requesting such review, after the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event at a time after the Assumption Date) expense may conduct an audit (but not more than two such audits during any calendar year except as described in the next sentence) of the Loans, Dealer Agreements and Contracts and Contract Files in conjunction with such a review.  On and after the occurrence of a Termination Event or Servicer Termination Event, the Deal Agent may conduct such reviews and audits without limitation, at the Servicer’s expense.
Section 6.3.    Rights After Designation of Successor Servicer.  At any time following the designation of a Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 6.12(a):
(i)    The Collateral Agent may intercept payments made by or on behalf of Obligors and direct that payment of all amounts payable under any Loan or Contract be made directly to the Collateral Agent or its designee; provided, that the Collateral Agent shall pay to any Dealer, to the extent to which such Dealer is entitled, all related Dealer Collections.

Section 6.4.    Responsibilities of the Borrower.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall (i) perform all of its obligations under the Loans and Contracts to the same extent as if a security interest in such Loans and Contracts had not been granted hereunder and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights hereunder shall not relieve the Borrower from such obligations and (ii) pay when due any taxes, including without limitation, any sales taxes payable in connection with the Loans or Contracts and their creation and satisfaction.

Section 6.12.    Appointment of Successor Servicer.

The Deal Agent may at the time described in the immediately preceding sentence at the direction of the Lender appoint the Backup Servicer by written notice as the Servicer hereunder, and the Backup Servicer shall on such date (which date shall be no less than 30 days after receipt of such written notice) assume all obligations of the Servicer hereunder (except as specifically set forth herein or in the Backup Servicing Agreement), and all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer.

(b)    Upon its assumption as Successor Servicer, the Backup Servicer (except as specifically set forth herein or in the Backup Servicing Agreement and subject to Section 6.12(a)) or any other Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and 


-81-

In no event shall the Backup Servicer be liable for any actions or omissions of any predecessor Servicer.
(c)    Subject to Section 6.12(a) and (b) above, all authority and power granted to the Servicer under this Agreement shall automatically cease and terminate upon the later of the Collection Date and the termination of this Agreement and shall pass to and be vested in the Borrower and, without limitation, the Borrower is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments, and to do and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such transfer of servicing rights.  The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Borrower in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer to conduct servicing on the Loans and the Contracts.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall (i) perform all of its obligations under the Loans to the same extent as if a security interest in such Loans had not been granted hereunder and (ii) pay when due, from funds available to the Borrower under Section 2.7 hereto, any taxes.  Neither the Deal Agent, Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Loan, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower thereunder.

Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, a Potential Servicer Termination Event or an Unsatisfactory Audit, the Deal Agent shall have the right to require the Borrower and the Servicer (i) to establish a segregated payment trust account in the name of the Collateral Agent for Collections related to the Collateral and (ii) to direct all Obligors to make payments into such account.

(a)    In the ordinary course of its business in managing its serviced portfolio of dealer loans, Credit Acceptance may from time to time agree to enter into agreements (each, a “Dealer Collections Purchase Agreement”) with Dealers, pursuant to which the applicable Dealer agrees to sell and assign to Credit Acceptance all of its rights, interests and entitlement in and to one or more Pools of Dealer Loan Contracts securing one or more Dealer Loans, including such Dealer’s ownership interest in such Dealer Loan Contracts and rights to receive the related Dealer Collections (a “Dealer Collections Purchase”).
(b)    Credit Acceptance has assigned all of its rights under any Dealer Collections Purchase Agreements (including, without limitation, any right, title and interest in any Dealer Loan Contract acquired from a Dealer thereunder) to the Borrower pursuant to the Contribution 


-82-









Agreement.  Upon the payment by Credit Acceptance to the applicable Dealer under a Dealer Collections Purchase Agreement of the purchase price thereunder (the “Dealer Collections Purchase Price”), the related Dealer Loans shall be deemed to have been satisfied and, pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Dealer Loan Contracts securing such Dealer Loans shall be automatically and immediately transferred by Credit Acceptance to Borrower as Purchased Loan Contracts, and the loans thereunder shall be deemed Purchased Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, all Collections on such Purchased Loan Contracts shall be included in Available Funds, and the determination of whether any Purchase Loan so transferred to the Borrower on the date of a Dealer Collections Purchase is an Eligible Purchased Loan shall be made on the date of such Dealer Collections Purchase.
(c)    On the date of each Dealer Collections Purchase, Credit Acceptance shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a list identifying (A) all Dealer Loans satisfied as a result of such Dealer Collections Purchase, (B) each Dealer Loan Contract previously securing such Dealer Loans and (C) the Purchased Loans and Purchased Loan Contracts evidencing such Purchased Loans resulting from such Dealer Collections Purchase, in each case, identified by account number, dealer number and pool number, as applicable.

-29-









Sections 3.1 and 3.2), the Lender agrees to make the Advance from time to time as requested by the Borrower during the period from the date hereof to but not including the Termination Date.  Under no circumstances shall the Lender make an Advance if, after giving effect to such Advance, (A) the aggregate Capital outstanding hereunder would exceed the lesser of (i) the Facility Limit and (ii) the Borrowing Base.
(b)    [Reserved].
(c)    The Note.
(i)    The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of and interest on all amounts advanced by the Lender pursuant to the Fundings shall be evidenced by a variable funding note of the Borrower in favor of the Lender (the “Note”) which shall:  (1) be dated the Effective Date; (2) be in the stated principal amount equal to the Commitment amount for the Lender (as reflected from time to time on the grid attached thereto); (3) bear interest as provided therein; (4) be payable to the order of the Lender, and mature (whether or not there are funds available therefor at such time, pursuant to Section 2.7 or otherwise) on August 17, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”); and (5) be substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith.  The Lender may, and is hereby authorized to, make a notation on the schedule attached to the Note of the date and the amount of the Fundings and the date and amount of the payment of principal thereon, and prior to any transfer of the Note, the Lender shall endorse the outstanding principal amount of the Note on the schedule attached thereto; provided, however, that failure to make such notation shall not adversely affect the Lender’s rights with respect to the Note.
(ii)    Although the Note shall be dated the Effective Date, interest in respect thereof shall be payable only for the periods during which amounts are outstanding thereunder.  In addition, although the stated principal amount of the Note shall be equal to the Commitment amount of the Lender, such Note shall be enforceable with respect to the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal thereof only to the extent of the unpaid principal amount of the Capital and Interest and all other amounts outstanding hereunder and thereunder at the time such enforcement shall be sought.
Section 2.2.    Grant of Security Interest; Acceptance by Collateral Agent.
(a)    (i)    As security for the prompt and complete payment of the Note and the performance of all of the Borrower’s obligations under the Note, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and continuing Lien on all of the Borrower’s property (whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located) including, without limitation, all of its right, title and interest to:  (i) the Loans, and all monies due or to become due in payment thereupon on and after the related Cut-Off Date; (ii) all Related Security; (iii) all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Contribution Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the assignment to the Deal Agent of all UCC financing statements filed by the Borrower against the Originator under or in connection with the Contribution Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (iv) all income, Collections and Proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the 


-30-









“Collateral”).  The foregoing pledge does not constitute an assumption by the Collateral Agent of any obligations of the Borrower to Obligors or any other Person in connection with the Collateral or under any agreement or instrument relating to the Collateral, including, without limitation, any obligation to make future advances to or on behalf of such Obligors.
(ii)    In connection with such grant, the Borrower authorizes Credit Acceptance, and Credit Acceptance agrees to record and file, at Borrower’s expense, financing statements with respect to the Collateral now existing and hereafter created meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect the first priority security interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Collateral, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or other evidence of such filing to the Collateral Agent and the Deal Agent on or prior to each Funding Date.  Such financing statements may describe as the collateral covered thereby “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Agreement.  In addition, the Borrower and the Servicer agree to clearly and unambiguously mark their respective general ledgers and all accounting records and documents and all computer tapes and records to show that the Collateral, including that portion of the Collateral consisting of the Dealer Agreements listed on Schedule V hereto (and each addendum thereto), the Loans and the related Contracts and the rights to payment under the related Dealer Agreements, has been pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder.
(iii)    In connection with such pledge, the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) agrees to deliver to the Collateral Agent on the Closing Date or any Funding Date on which new Pools or Purchased Loans are pledged to the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, one or more computer files or microfiche lists containing true and complete lists of all applicable Dealer Agreements, Pools and Loans securing the payment of the Note and amounts due under the Transaction Documents and all of the Borrower’s obligations under the Note and the Transaction Documents as of the Closing Date or Funding Date, and all Contracts securing all such Loans, identified by, as applicable, account number, dealer number and pool number as of the end of the Collection Period immediately preceding such date.  Such file shall be marked as Schedule V hereto or as an addendum thereto, shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent as confidential and proprietary, and such Schedule V and each addendum thereto are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.  Such Schedule V shall be supplemented and updated on the date of each Incremental Funding in the Revolving Period to include all Loans and Contracts pledged on the date of each such date so that, on each such date, the Collateral Agent will have a Schedule V that describes all Loans pledged by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent hereunder on or prior to said date of Incremental Funding, any related Dealer Agreements, Purchase Agreements and all Contracts securing or evidencing such Loans (other than those that have been released from the Collateral and those Dealer Loans that have been deemed to be satisfied pursuant to Section 6.15(b) hereto).  Such updated Schedule V shall be deemed to replace any existing Schedule V as of the date such updated Schedule V is provided in accordance with this Section 2.2(a)(iii).  Furthermore, Schedule V hereto shall be deemed to be supplemented 


-31-









on each date of Dealer Collections Purchase by the related list delivered by Credit Acceptance pursuant to Section 6.15(c).
(iv)    In connection with such pledge, each of the Borrower, Credit Acceptance and the Servicer also agrees, within 180 days of the Closing Date or relevant Funding Date, as the case may be, to clearly mark at least 98% of the Contracts or Contract folders securing a Loan with the following legend: “THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL RELATED CONTRACTS AND LOANS HAVE BEEN PLEDGED TO FIFTH THIRD BANK AS COLLATERAL AGENT FOR THE BENEFIT OF CERTAIN SECURED PARTIES AND ANY PURCHASE, SALE OR COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT OF ANY SUCH ASSET WOULD VIOLATE THE RIGHTS OF SUCH SECURED PARTIES”.  Such legend shall be in bold, in type face at least as large as 12 point and shall be entirely in capital letters.
(b)    The Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges its acceptance, on behalf of the Secured Parties, of the pledge by the Borrower of the Loans and all other Collateral.  The Collateral Agent further acknowledges that, prior to or simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower delivered to the Collateral Agent the computer file or microfiche list represented by the Borrower to be the computer file or microfiche list described in Section 2.2(a)(iii).
(c)    The Collateral Agent hereby agrees not to disclose to any Person (other than to each Secured Party) any of the account numbers or other information contained in the computer files or microfiche lists delivered to the Collateral Agent by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(iii), except as is required in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder or in enforcing the rights of the Secured Parties or to a Successor Servicer; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent may reply to a request from any Person for a list of Loans, Dealer Agreements, Contracts or other information referred to in any financing statement.  The Collateral Agent agrees to take such measures as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Borrower to protect and maintain the security and confidentiality of such information.  The Collateral Agent shall provide the Borrower with written notice five Business Days prior to any disclosure pursuant to this subsection 2.2(c).
Section 2.3.    Procedures for Funding of Advances.
(a)    Each Advance hereunder shall be requested by the Borrower delivering to the Lender (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) a duly completed Funding Notice no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Funding Date.  Each Funding Notice shall:  (i) specify the desired amount of such Funding which amount must (x) in the case of the initial funding hereunder (the “Initial Funding”) be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, and (y) in the case of any Incremental Funding, be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $10,000 in excess thereof, (ii) specify the date of such Funding, and (iii) include a representation that all conditions precedent for a Funding described in Article III hereof have been met.

(c)    In no event shall the Lender be required on any date to make any Funding which would result in the Capital, determined after giving effect to such funding, exceeding the Commitment.
Section 2.4.    Determination of Interest and Other Amounts.  On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Lender shall determine and deliver to the Servicer the applicable LIBOR Rate with respect to the related Accrual Period.

Section 2.5.    Reduction of the Facility Limit; Repurchase.  The Borrower may, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Deal Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part the portion of the Facility Limit that exceeds the aggregate Capital; provided, however, that each partial reduction of the Facility Limit shall be in an aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof.  Each notice of reduction or termination pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be irrevocable.
Section 2.6.    [Reserved.]

The Collateral Agent shall distribute such amount to the Deal Agent for the account of the Lender, to be distributed by the Deal Agent to the Lender as a payment in reduction of Capital. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.7(b) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to effect any such withdrawal or the Deal Agent make any such distribution until an Officer of the Servicer or a representative of the Servicer designated by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer has certified to the Collateral Agent and the Deal Agent in writing (which shall include electronic transmission) that it reasonably believes that at the end of the related Collection Period the sum of Available Funds and Excess Reserve Amount, after giving effect to such payment, will be greater than the amount needed to make the payments required pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(i) through (xi).  Any such prepayment of principal shall include all accrued and unpaid Interest and any applicable Breakage Costs relating thereto.
(c)    (i) If on any Payment Date the amount paid pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(iv) and (v) is insufficient to cover all amounts due thereunder on such Payment Date the Collateral Agent shall withdraw from the Reserve Account an amount equal to the lesser of such shortfall and the amount of funds on deposit in the Reserve Account (such withdrawal, a “Reserve Advance”) and deposit such amount to the Collection Account.  The Collateral Agent shall pay such amount to the Deal Agent for payment to the Lender.
(ii)    If on any Payment Date during the Amortization Period, the amount paid pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(vi) is insufficient to reduce Capital to zero, the Deal Agent, in its sole discretion, may direct the Collateral Agent to withdraw any or all of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account, and pay such amount to the Deal Agent, for payment to the Lender in respect of interest and principal and all other Aggregate Unpaids payable to the Lender at such time.

-35-









(ii)    Unless the Take-Out is to be effected on a Payment Date (in which case the relevant calculations with respect to such Take-Out shall be reflected on the applicable Monthly Report), the Servicer shall deliver to the Deal Agent an Officer’s Certificate, together with evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Deal Agent (which evidence may consist solely of the Officer’s Certificate signed by an officer of the Servicer) that the Borrower shall have sufficient funds on the related Take-Out Date to effect the contemplated Take-Out in accordance with this Agreement.  In effecting the Take-Out, the Borrower may use the proceeds of sales of the Loans (which sales must be made in arm’s length transactions).
(iii)    After giving effect to the Take-Out and the release to the Borrower of the Loans and related Contracts on the Take-Out Date, (x) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.1 and 4.2 hereof shall continue to be correct in all material respects, except to the extent relating to an earlier date and (y) neither an Unmatured Termination Event nor a Termination Event shall have resulted.
(iv)    On the Take-Out Date, the Collateral Agent shall have received, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Hedge Counterparties, as applicable, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the sum of:  (A) the Capital being paid plus (B) an amount equal to the related unpaid Interest plus (C) an aggregate amount equal to the sum of all other amounts due and owing to the Deal Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lender, the Backup Servicer, the Successor Servicer, the Hedge Counterparties and the other Secured Parties, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent accrued to such date (including, without limitation, Breakage Costs and Hedge Costs) plus (D) all other Aggregate Unpaids.  No reduction of the Capital shall be given effect unless the Borrower has complied with the terms of any Hedging Agreement requiring that any derivative transaction related thereto be terminated in whole or in part as a result of any such reduction in the Capital and the Borrower has paid all Hedge Costs due to the relevant Hedge Counterparty for any such termination.
(v)    Upon receipt of the amount set forth in clause (iv) above, the Collateral Agent shall apply such amounts first to the pro rata reduction of the Capital, second to the payment of accrued Interest on the amount of the Capital to be repaid and to the payment of any Breakage Costs, by paying such amounts to the Lender, and third to pay any Hedge Costs related to such reduction of the Capital due to the relevant Hedge Counterparty, and fourth to pay all other Aggregate Unpaids related to such reduction of the Capital due to the relevant party.

Upon the occurrence of any Take-Out the Borrower and the Servicer shall be deemed to represent and warrant that each of the foregoing conditions has been satisfied with respect thereto.
(b)    The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Lender, the Deal Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with any Take-Out (including, but not limited to, expenses incurred in connection with the release of the Lien of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and any expenses of the Lender, the Deal Agent or any other party having such an interest in the Loans in connection with such Take-Out).
(c)    In connection with any Take-Out, on the related Take-Out Date, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Lender, the Deal Agent and the other Secured Parties, shall, at the expense of the Borrower: (i) execute such instruments of release with respect to the portion of the Loans to be released to the Borrower, in favor of the Borrower as the Borrower may reasonably request; (ii) deliver any portion of the Loans to be released to the Borrower in its possession to the Borrower; and (iii) at the Borrower’s reasonable request, otherwise take such actions, and permit the Borrower to take such actions, as are necessary and appropriate to release the Lien of the Collateral Agent on the Loans to be released to the Borrower and deliver to the Borrower such Loans.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower may not effect a Take-Out more frequently than one time during any three month period.
Section 2.9.    Collections and Allocations.

The Servicer shall make such deposits or payments on the date indicated therein by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by automated clearing house (ACH) payment.

Each of the Borrower and the Originator is aware that in light of the circumstances described in the preceding sentence and other relevant facts, the filing of a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code for the purpose of making any Loan or any other assets of the Borrower available to satisfy claims of the creditors of the Originator would not result in making such assets available to satisfy such creditors under the Bankruptcy Code.

-53-









by the Borrower of such Loan or Contract being an Ineligible Loan or Ineligible Contract and (ii) receipt by the Borrower from the Deal Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Servicer (provided that, if SST is Successor Servicer, SST shall only be obligated to inform the other parties to the Agreement of breaches detailed in Section 4.2 of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge) of written notice thereof the Borrower shall, by no later than the first Payment Date occurring after the Collection Period during which such discovery or notice thereof occurred, make a payment to the Collection Account in respect of each such Loan or Contract in an amount equal to the related Release Price.  On and after the date of such payment, any such Loan or Contract shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to be an Ineligible Loan or Ineligible Contract.  The Borrower shall make a deposit to the Collection Account (for allocation pursuant to Section 2.7) in immediately available funds an amount (the “Release Price”) equal to the sum of (i): in the case of an Ineligible Loan, the product of (x) the Net LoanOutstanding Balance related to such Loan as of the last day of the related Collection Period and (y) the Net Advance Rate in effect on the date of such payment; and in the case of an Ineligible Contract, the product of (x) the Outstanding Balance related to such Contract as of the last day of the related Collection Period and (y) a ratio the numerator of which is the outstanding Capital as of the date of such payment and the denominator of which is the Outstanding Balance of all Contracts as of the last day of the related Collection Period; (ii) accrued and unpaid Carrying Costs, Breakage Costs, Increased Costs, Indemnified Amounts and Additional Amounts related to such Loan or Contract through the date of such deposit; and (iii) all Hedge Costs due to the relevant Hedge Counterparties for any termination in whole or in part of one or more transactions related to the relevant Hedging Agreement, as required by the terms of any Hedging Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Ineligible Contracts, the Borrower may repurchase the Loans related thereto in lieu of such Ineligible Contracts and deposit into the Collection Account the Release Price of such Loans (as if such Loans were Ineligible Loans).  Each Loan or Contract which is subject to a payment in accordance with this Section 4.5(a) shall, upon payment in full of the related Release Price, be released from the lien created pursuant to this Agreement and shall no longer constitute Collateral.  The Collateral Agent as agent for the Secured Parties shall, at the sole expense of the Servicer, execute and deliver such instruments of transfer, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be prepared and reasonably requested by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower to vest in the Borrower, or its designee or assignee, all right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent as agent for the Secured Parties in, to and under the Loans or Contract subject to a payment in accordance with this Section 4.5(a).
(b)    Retransfer of All of the Loans.  In the event of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4.2 hereof which breach could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, by notice then given in writing to the Borrower, the Deal Agent may direct the Borrower to accept the release by the Collateral Agent of all of the Loans, in which case the Borrower shall be obligated to accept the release of such Loans on a Payment Date specified by the Deal Agent (such date, the “Release Date”); provided, however, that no such release shall be given effect unless Borrower has complied with the terms of any Hedging Agreement requiring that any derivative transaction related thereto be terminated in whole or in part and the Borrower has paid all Hedge Costs due with respect to such termination.  The Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account on the Release Date an amount equal to: (A) the Aggregate Unpaids minus (B) the amount, if any, available in the Collection Account and Reserve Account on such Payment Date (the “Retransfer Amount”) for allocation and distribution in accordance with Section 2.7 in respect of 


-54-









such Aggregate Unpaids.  On the Release Date, provided that the full Retransfer Amount has been deposited into the Collection Account, the Loans and Related Security related thereto shall be transferred to the Borrower; and the Collateral Agent as agent for the Secured Parties shall, at the sole expense of Credit Acceptance, execute and deliver such instruments of transfer, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be prepared and reasonably requested by Credit Acceptance on behalf of the Borrower to vest in the Borrower, or its designee or assignee, all right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent as agent for the Secured Parties in, to and under the Loans.
(c)    Remedy for Breach.  The parties hereto agree that the sole remedy for the breach by the Borrower of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.2 hereof with respect to the eligibility of a Loan or Contract shall be set forth in this Section 4.5 and Section 6.2(c)(ii).
(d)    Application.  Amounts paid in accordance with Section 4.5(a) and (b) shall be distributed on the next succeeding Payment Date in accordance with Section 2.7.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the Revolving Period, payments required under Section 4.5(a) and (b) shall not be required if the Capital is equal to or less than the Borrowing Base.

ARTICLE VI 
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF CONTRACTS
Section 6.1.    Servicing.
(a)    The Borrower, the Deal Agent and the Collateral Agent hereby revocably appoint Credit Acceptance as servicer hereunder and Credit Acceptance hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to manage, collect and administer each of the Loans and Contracts as Servicer.  In the event of a Servicer Termination Event, the Deal Agent shall have the right to terminate Credit Acceptance as servicer hereunder.  Upon termination of Credit Acceptance as servicer of the Loans pursuant to Section 6.11 hereof, the Deal Agent shall have the right to appoint 


-70-









a Successor Servicer and enter into a servicing agreement with such Successor Servicer at such time and exercise all of its rights under Section 6.3 hereof.  Such servicing agreement shall specify the duties and obligations of such Successor Servicer, and all references herein to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to such Successor Servicer.
(b)    The Borrower shall cause the Servicer to deposit all Collections to the Collection Account no later than two Business Days after receipt (if SST is Successor Servicer, within one (1) Business Day with respect to cleared funds, and in all other cases within three (3) Business Days of receipt).  The Servicer agrees to deposit all Collections to the Collection Account no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt (if SST is Successor Servicer, within one (1) Business Day with respect to cleared funds, and in all other cases within three (3) Business Days of receipt).
(c)    On or before 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Credit Acceptance, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, Credit Acceptance shall cause a firm of nationally recognized independent public accountants acceptable to the Deal Agent (who may also render other services to Credit Acceptance or the Borrower) to furnish a report to the Collateral Agent, the Deal Agent and the Secured Parties to the effect that they have (i) compared the information contained in the Monthly Reports delivered during such fiscal year, based on a sample size provided by the Collateral Agent, with the information contained in the Loans, the Contracts and Credit Acceptance’s records and computer systems for such period, and that, on the basis of such agreed upon procedures, such firm is of the opinion that the information contained in the Monthly Reports reconciles with the information contained in the Loans and the Contracts and Credit Acceptance’s records and computer system and that the servicing of the Loans and the Contracts has been conducted in compliance with this Agreement and (ii) verified the Aggregate Outstanding Eligible Loan Balance as of the end of each Collection Period during such fiscal year, except, in each case for (A) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial (which exceptions need not be enumerated) and (B) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement.
Section 6.2.    Duties of the Servicer and Custodian.
(a)    The 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 material accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in material accordance with the Collection Guidelines and Credit Guidelines, it being understood that there shall be no recourse to the Servicer (in its capacity as such) with regard to the Loans and Contracts except as otherwise provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents.  In performing its duties as Servicer, the Servicer shall use the same degree of care and attention it employs with respect to similar contracts and loans which it services for itself or others.  Each of the Borrower, the Deal Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereby appoints as its agent the Servicer, from time to time designated pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof, to enforce its respective rights and interests in and under the Collateral.  If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce a Loan or a Contract (for purposes of collection or otherwise), or if in any enforcement or other legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a Loan or 


-71-









a Contract, on the grounds that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Loan or Contract or on similar grounds, the Collateral Agent shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned to the Servicer, solely for the purpose of enforcement, such a Loan or Contract.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent (and Lender, if applicable) shall furnish the Servicer with any reasonably necessary and appropriate affidavit prepared by the Servicer that the Servicer may use in any such legal proceedings confirming the Servicer’s power and authority to sue and otherwise enforce the Loans and Contracts in its own name, consistent with this Section 6.2, and any powers of attorney, declarations or other documents prepared by the Servicer reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder.  The Servicer shall hold in trust for the Secured Parties all Records and any amounts it receives in respect of the Collateral.  In the event that a Successor Servicer is appointed, the outgoing Servicer shall deliver to the Successor Servicer and the Successor Servicer shall hold in trust for the Borrower and the Secured Parties all records which evidence or relate to all or any part of the Collateral.
(b)    The Servicer, if other than Credit Acceptance, shall as soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to the Borrower all records in its possession which evidence or relate to indebtedness of an Obligor which is not a Loan or a Contract.
(c)    (i)    The Borrower, Deal Agent and Collateral Agent hereby revocably appoint Credit Acceptance as custodian (or if there has been a Successor Servicer appointed hereunder then such Successor Servicer shall act as custodian), and Credit Acceptance (or the Successor Servicer, if applicable) hereby accepts such appointment, to hold and maintain physical possession of the Contract Files and all Records (or with respect to any Contract constituting electronic chattel paper, to maintain “control” (for UCC purposes) of the Authoritative Electronic Copy thereof) (in such capacity together with its successors in such capacity, the “Custodian”).  The Contract Files and Records are to be delivered to the Custodian or its designated bailee by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Deal Agent and Collateral Agent within two (2) Business Days preceding the Funding Date or within 2 Business Days after each Addition Date, as the case may be, with respect to each Loan acquired on the Funding Date or Addition Date.
(ii)    The Custodian shall within 180 days after the Closing Date or Funding Date, as applicable, review 100% of the Contract Files to verify the presence of the original retail installment contract and security agreement and/or installment loans with respect to each Contract, provided, however, that the Certificate of Title or other evidence of lien with respect to a Contract need not be verified.  If the number of Contracts for which any of the foregoing documents have not been delivered to the Custodian within 180 days of the Closing Date or relevant Funding Date, as the case may be, or corrected (each such Contract, a “Nonconforming Contract”), exceeds 2% of the aggregate number of Contract Files required to be reviewed pursuant to this Section 6.2(c)(ii), the Borrower shall make a deposit to the Reserve Account only with respect to the excess number of Nonconforming Contracts, in an amount equal to the related Nonconforming Contract Payment Amount.  Once per month, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account in respect of Nonconforming Contracts shall be adjusted to account for increases or decreases in the excess number of Nonconforming Contracts and for changes in the Outstanding Balance of such Nonconforming Contracts.  


-72-









The Borrower shall, in the case of an increase, promptly deposit to the Reserve Account the amount of any such increase.  In the case of a decrease, the amount of any such decrease shall be deemed to be part of the Excess Reserve Amount.

The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Borrower in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer to conduct servicing on the Loans and the Contracts.

(a)    In the ordinary course of its business in managing its serviced portfolio of dealer loans, Credit Acceptance may from time to time agree to enter into agreements (each, a “Dealer Collections Purchase Agreement”) with Dealers, pursuant to which the applicable Dealer agrees to sell and assign to Credit Acceptance all of its rights, interests and entitlement in and to one or more Pools of Dealer Loan Contracts securing one or more Dealer Loans, including such Dealer’s ownership interest in such Dealer Loan Contracts and rights to receive the related Dealer Collections (a “Dealer Collections Purchase”).
(b)    Credit Acceptance has assigned all of its rights under any Dealer Collections Purchase Agreements (including, without limitation, any right, title and interest in any Dealer Loan Contract acquired from a Dealer thereunder) to the Borrower pursuant to the Contribution Agreement.

(b)    By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:  (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of itself or the performance or observance by it of any of its obligations under the Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of such financial statements and other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Deal Agent or the Collateral Agent, the assigning Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) the assigning Lender and such assignee confirm that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each of the Deal Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to such agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as the Lender.
(c)    The Deal Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to herein a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the name and address of the Lender and the Commitment of, and the Capital of the Funding (the “Register”).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each participant shall have the rights of the Lender (including any right to receive payment) under Sections 2.13 and 2.14; provided, however, that no participant shall be entitled to receive payment under either such Section in excess of the amount that would have been payable under such Section by the Borrower to the Lender granting its participation had such participation not been granted, and no Lender granting a participation shall be entitled to receive payment under either such Section in an amount that exceeds the sum of (i) the amount to which the Lender is entitled under such Section with respect to any portion of the Capital that is not subject to any participation plus (ii) the aggregate amount to which its participants are entitled under such Sections with respect to the amounts of their respective participations.  With respect to any participation described in this Section 13.1, the participant’s rights as set forth in the agreement between such participant and the Lender to agree to or to restrict the Lender’s ability to agree to any modification, waiver or release of any of the terms of this Agreement or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights that the Lender may have under or in respect of this Agreement shall be limited to the right to consent to any of the matters set forth in Section 14.1 of this Agreement.

-96-









of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee, then the Lender agrees that it will make reasonable efforts to assign such increased costs, expenses or taxes to such Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
