SECTION 3.

Resale of Offered Certificates.  Each Purchaser understands that the Offered Certificates have not been registered under the Act in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(2) of the Act, and it agrees that it will not sell or otherwise transfer any of the Offered Certificates except upon compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Each Purchaser represents and warrants that it will make sales of the Offered Certificates (i) in the United States to institutional purchasers that such Purchaser reasonably believes are “qualified institutional buyers” as provided by Rule 144A of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Act and otherwise in compliance with Rule 144A or (ii) in offshore transactions to persons who are not “U.S. Persons” as defined in Regulation S promulgated under the Act (“Regulation S”).

Each Purchaser represents and agrees that (i) it has not offered or sold and will not offer or sell any Offered Certificates to persons in the United Kingdom prior to the expiry of the period of six months from the issue date of the Offered Certificates, except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances which have not resulted and will not result in an offer to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995 or the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”); (ii) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositor will not be required to prepare any amendments or supplements to the Final Memorandum, to reflect any reductions in the Certificate Principal Balances of the Offered Certificates occurring subsequent to the date of the Final Memorandum  (or any information based on such reduced principal balances, including any hypothetical payment scenarios), nor will the Depositor be required to reflect any such reductions or information in any amendment or supplement to the Final Memorandum.

SECTION 4.

(a)

Such Purchaser is duly authorized to enter into and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.

(c)

Such Purchaser is acquiring the Offered Certificates for its own account and not with a view to the public offering thereof in violation of the Act (subject, nevertheless, to the understanding that disposition of such Purchaser’s property shall at all times be and remain within such Purchaser’s control).

The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any of the Offered Certificates, except in compliance with the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. 

SECTION 5.

Agreements.  The Depositor agrees with each Purchaser that:

(a)

The Depositor will furnish the Purchasers with electronic copies of the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum for a particular offering of Offered Certificates as the Purchasers may from time to time reasonably request (such period not to exceed 90 days from the Closing Date, except as otherwise provided herein).

(b)

The Depositor will furnish such information, execute such instruments and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Purchasers to qualify the Offered Certificates for sale pursuant to an exemption under the state securities or Blue Sky Laws of any state as any Purchaser may reasonably designate and to determine the legality of such Offered Certificates for purchase by institutional investors; provided, however, that the Depositor shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not qualified on the date hereof or to take any action which would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction in which it is not now subject to such service of process.

(c)

So long as the Offered Certificates are outstanding, the Depositor will cause the Securities Administrator to furnish to the Purchasers (and any subsequent beneficial owner of an Offered Certificate) (i) copies of the annual independent public accountants’ servicing report furnished to the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (ii) any Rule 144A Information and (iii) within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar year, such information as is reasonably necessary to assist such Certificateholder in preparing federal income tax returns.

3.1.

Indemnification by the Depositor.

(a)

The Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each of its respective directors, officers and each Person, if any, that controls each Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures or liabilities to which such party or any such director, officer or controlling Person may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum together with any term sheet or any other marketing material used in connection with the offering of the Offered Certificates (the “Marketing Materials”) (in each case excluding any pricing information omitted therefrom and any information derived from such pricing information) or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, relating to the offering of the Offered Certificates or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Memorandum together with the Marketing Materials (in each case excluding any pricing information omitted therefrom and any information derived from such pricing information) or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, relating to the offering of the Offered Certificates, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, to the extent, and only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission does not relate to the Initial Purchaser Information, and the Depositor shall reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer or controlling Person, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, penalty, fine, forfeiture or action. The Depositor’s liability under this Section 3.1 shall be in addition to any other liability that the Depositor may otherwise have.

(b)

Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, its directors and officers, and each Person, if any, that controls the Depositor within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures or liabilities to which such party or any such director, officer or controlling Person may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum or Marketing Materials (in each case excluding any pricing information omitted therefrom and any information derived from such pricing information) or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, relating to the offering of the Offered Certificates or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the foregoing a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission relates to the Initial Purchaser Information, and the Initial 









 

4






Purchaser shall reimburse the Depositor and each such director, officer or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Depositor and each such director, officer or controlling Person, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, penalty, fine, forfeiture or action. The Initial Purchasers’ liability under this Section 3.1 shall be in addition to any other liability that any Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c)

AGFC shall indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each of its respective directors, officers and each Person, if any, that controls each Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the 1933 Act or the Exchange Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures or liabilities to which such party or any such director, officer or controlling Person may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum together with the Marketing Materials (in each case excluding any pricing information omitted therefrom and any information derived from such pricing information) or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, relating to the offering of the Offered Certificates or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Memorandum together with the Marketing Materials (in each case excluding any pricing information omitted therefrom and any information derived from such pricing information) or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, relating to the offering of the Offered Certificates, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, to the extent, and only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission does not relate to the Initial Purchaser Information, and AGFC shall reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer or controlling Person, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, penalty, fine, forfeiture or action. AGFC ’s liability under this Section 3.1 shall be in addition to any other liability that AGFC may otherwise have.

(d)

If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.1 shall for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party under this Section 3.1, then the party which would otherwise be obligated to indemnify with respect thereto, on the one hand, and the parties which would otherwise be entitled to be indemnified, on the other hand, shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures and expenses of the nature contemplated herein and incurred by the parties hereto in such proportions that are appropriate to reflect the relative benefit to the Depositor or AGFC, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the issuance and sale of the Certificates or, if such allocation is not permitted by a court of competent jurisdiction, then on a basis appropriate to also recognize the relative fault of the Depositor or AGFC and the Initial Purchasers in connection with the applicable misstatements or omissions as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, which may include the Depositor’s, AGFC’s and the Initial Purchasers’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances; provided, however, that the total 









 

5






contribution of any Initial Purchaser shall not exceed its net proceeds from the sale of the Offered Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person that was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 3.1, each officer and director of a party to this Agreement and each Person, if any, that controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such party.

3.2.

Notification; Procedural Matters.

Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 3.1 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party (or if a claim for contribution is to be made against another party) under Section 3.1 hereof, notify the indemnifying party (or other contributing party) in writing of the claim or the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (or other contributing party) shall not relieve it from any liability it may have to any indemnified party (or to the party requesting contribution) otherwise than under Section 3.1 hereof, except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that, by written notice delivered to each indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from an indemnified party, the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense thereof, it may participate (jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified) with counsel satisfactory to each indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both an indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party or parties shall reasonably have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or them and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this paragraph for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) such indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel (plus any local counsel) in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party to represent such indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) such indemnifying party shall have authorized the employment of counsel for such indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  In no event shall any indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from its own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any 









 

6






indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought thereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) does not include a statement as to or admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any such indemnified party, and (ii) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
