Issuer’s delivery to or upon the order of the Depositor of (i) the Notes, and (ii) the Certificates resulting in an increase in the residual value of the equity interest in the Issuer owned by the 







 
Depositor, the Depositor does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse, but subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, each
and all of the following (collectively, the “Depositor Conveyed Assets”): (x) all right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Conveyed Assets, (y) all of the Depositor’s rights under the Receivables Purchase
Agreement, including the representations of the Seller made therein and the Depositor’s right to enforce a breach of any such representation made with respect to any Conveyed Assets, and (z) all proceeds of each of the foregoing. 

(b)      As of the Closing Date, the Issuer acknowledges the conveyance to it of the Depositor
Conveyed Assets transferred on such date, including all right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Depositor Conveyed Assets, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by the Issuer. Concurrent with such delivery, as of the Closing Date
and pursuant to the Indenture the Issuer pledges and/or assigns the Depositor Conveyed Assets and the other Collateral to the Indenture Trustee as security for the Notes. 

    Section 2.02  Ownership and Possession of Receivable Files.   The

(b)      It is the intention of the parties hereto that, for non-tax purposes, the transfer and
assignment of the Depositor Conveyed Assets and the other Collateral on the Closing Date constitutes an absolute sale (and not a pledge to secure debt or other obligations of the Depositor) of the Depositor Conveyed Assets and the other Collateral
such that (i) the Depositor Conveyed Assets and the other Collateral shall not be included in the bankruptcy estate of the Depositor pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 541, (ii) the FDIC shall not, by exercise of its authority to
disaffirm or repudiate contracts under Section 13(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, reclaim, recover or recharacterize as property of the Seller any Depositor Conveyed Assets or any other Collateral transferred by the Seller to the

 2 








 
and proceeds thereof (including all Receivables and related property), the Seller and the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and do hereby grant to the Issuer as of the Closing Date, a
first priority security interest in the entire right, title and interest of such Person in and to such property and the proceeds thereof. In such event, with respect to the Conveyed Assets and the Depositor Conveyed Assets, respectively, the
Receivables Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, shall each constitute, and each hereby is deemed by the parties to be, a security agreement under the New York UCC. 

(d)      The parties hereto intend to treat the Notes as indebtedness secured by the Collateral
for federal, State and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes as provided for in Section 2.09(a) of the Indenture.

Assets from the Depositor to the Issuer and Indenture Trustee and hereby agrees that the Issuer and Indenture Trustee shall have the right to enforce any and all rights under the Receivables Purchase Agreement assigned to the Issuer herein,

Section 3.01(a), in each case without regard to any limitation set forth in such representation or warranty concerning the knowledge of any Person as to the facts stated therein or (ii) any breach of the Depositor’s representations

shall use its best efforts to promptly cure such breach and (ii) if such breach is not cured, the Depositor shall repurchase such Receivable which is the subject of such breach. Any repurchase of a Receivable pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 3.03, shall be accomplished by payment to the Issuer or its successors and assigns of the Repurchase Price on or before the Payment Date of the month immediately following the end of the Collection Period in which the
thirty (30) day cure period referred to above has ended. 
 (c)      The sole remedy of
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty referred to in Section 3.01(a) or with respect to a breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 3.02 of the
Receivables Purchase Agreement, provided neither such breach has been cured pursuant to Section 3.03(b), shall be to require the Seller to purchase such Receivable pursuant to this Section 3.03 (it being understood that the
indemnification covenants of the Seller hereunder and under the other Basic Documents shall still apply notwithstanding this clause (c)). 

  Section 3.04   Appointment of Custodian; Custody and Delivery of Receivable Files.
  To assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to reduce administrative costs, the Issuer hereby appoints the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act for the benefit of the Issuer and the Indenture
Trustee as Custodian of the Receivable Files which are constructively delivered by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee on the Closing Date. 

Section 3.05   Duties of Servicer as Custodian. 

(a)      The Servicer shall hold each Receivable File as Custodian for the benefit of and as
bailee of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, and shall maintain such accurate and complete accounts, records and computer systems pertaining to each Receivable File as shall enable the Issuer to comply with this Agreement and the Indenture
Trustee to comply with the Indenture. In performing its duties as Custodian, the Servicer shall act with reasonable care, and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Servicer shall conduct, or cause to be conducted, periodic audits of the
Receivable Files held by it as Custodian under this Agreement and of the related accounts, records and computer systems, in such a manner as shall enable the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee to verify the accuracy of the Servicer’s record
keeping, and the Issuer and 

  
 5 








 
the Indenture Trustee shall not be obligated to exercise any such rights, and shall have no liability for failing to exercise any such rights, to so verify the accuracy of the Servicer’s
record keeping. The Servicer shall promptly report to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee any failure on its part to hold the Receivable Files and maintain its accounts, records and computer systems as herein provided and shall promptly take
appropriate action to remedy any such failure. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require an initial review or any periodic review by the Issuer, the Backup Servicer or the Indenture Trustee of the Receivable Files. 

(b)      The Servicer shall maintain each Receivable File at one or more of the locations
specified in Exhibit A to this Agreement or at such other location as shall be specified to the Issuer, the Backup Servicer, if any, and the Indenture Trustee by written notice not later than thirty (30) days after any change in
location. Upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Issuer, the Backup Servicer, if any, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency, the Servicer may appoint an Affiliate to act as a sub-custodian to maintain up to all
Receivable Files at one or more locations identified in such notice, provided, however, if either Rating Agency shall object in writing to such appointment it shall not be made and no Receivable File shall be maintained by such Affiliate. Any such
Affiliate so appointed shall execute an agreement with the Servicer obligating the Affiliate to perform all functions otherwise required of the Servicer herein when acting as Custodian. The Servicer shall remain liable as Custodian notwithstanding
the appointment of an Affiliate as sub-custodian and the maintenance by such Affiliate of Receivable Files. Upon reasonable notice by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall make available to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee or
their duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors a list of locations of the Receivable Files and the related accounts, records and computer systems maintained by the Servicer during normal business hours and such review shall be
conducted in a reasonable manner. 
 (c)      Upon reasonable request from the Indenture
Trustee or, if the Notes have been Paid In Full, from the Owner Trustee, the Custodian shall release any Receivable File to the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, or to the agent or designee of the Indenture Trustee or the
Owner Trustee, as the case may be, at such place or places as the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, may reasonably designate as soon as practicable. Upon the release and delivery of any such document in accordance with the
instructions of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, the Custodian shall be released from any further liability and responsibility under this Section 3.05 with respect to such documents and any other provision of this
Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents if the fulfillment of the Custodian’s responsibilities is dependent upon possession of such documents, unless and until such time as such documents shall be returned to the Custodian. In no event
shall the Custodian be responsible for any loss occasioned by the Indenture Trustee’s or the Owner Trustee’s failure to return any Receivable File or any portion thereof in a timely manner. 

(d)      The Servicer shall not at any time have, or in any way attempt to assert, any interest
in any Receivable held by it as Custodian hereunder or in the related Receivable File, other than for collecting or enforcing such Receivable for the benefit of the Issuer. The entire equitable interest in such Receivable and the related Receivable
File shall at all times be vested in the Issuer. 

  
 6 








   Section 3.06   Instructions; Authority to
Act.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have received proper instructions with respect to the Receivable Files upon its receipt of written instructions signed by a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee, or, if the Notes have been Paid
In Full, by a Trust Officer of the Owner Trustee. A certified copy of excerpts of authorizing resolutions of the board of directors of the Indenture Trustee shall constitute conclusive evidence of the authority of any such Trust Officer to act and
shall be considered in full force and effect until receipt by the Servicer of written notice to the contrary given by the Indenture Trustee. 

  Section 3.07   Custodian’s Indemnification. 

(a)      The Custodian shall indemnify the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer and
the Indenture Trustee and each of their officers, directors, employees and agents for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, compensatory damages, payments, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Indenture Trustee or any of their officers, directors, employees or agents as the result of any improper act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody by
the Custodian of the Receivable Files; provided, however, that the Custodian shall not be liable to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer the Indenture Trustee or any such officer, director, employee or agent of the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer or the Indenture Trustee for any portion of any such amount resulting from (i) actions taken by the Custodian pursuant to instructions as provided in Section 3.06, or (ii) release and
delivery of documents by the Custodian as provided in Section 3.05(c) or (iii) the willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence of such Person listed above, or any such officer, director, employee or agent of such Person. 

(b)      Indemnification under this Section 3.07 shall survive the resignation or removal
of the Custodian or the termination of this Agreement with respect to acts or omissions of the Custodian preceding such resignation or removal or termination and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If
the Custodian shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section 3.07 and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts
to the Custodian. 
   Section 3.08   Effective Period and Termination.  The
Servicer’s appointment as Custodian shall become effective as of the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect unless and until terminated pursuant to this Section 3.08 or Section 8.02(a). If the Servicer or any
successor Servicer shall resign as Servicer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or if all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer or any successor Servicer are terminated under Section 8.02(a), the appointment of the
Servicer as Custodian shall be terminated. The Indenture Trustee or, with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee may terminate the Servicer’s appointment as Custodian, with cause, at any time upon written notification to the
Servicer. As soon as practicable after any termination of such appointment (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days after any such termination of appointment), the Custodian shall deliver the Receivable Files to the Indenture Trustee
or the Indenture Trustee’s agent at such place or places as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably designate. Notwithstanding the termination of the Servicer as Custodian, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer agree that, upon any such termination
and for so long as the Servicer may not be 

  
 7 








 
acting as Custodian hereunder, the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer, as the case may be, shall provide, or cause its agent to provide, access to the Receivable Files to the Servicer for the
purpose of enabling the Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the servicing of the Receivables. 

  Section 3.09   Risk Retention. The Seller, as sponsor, shall retain an economic interest in
a material portion of the credit risk of the Receivables, which interest retention obligation may be satisfied by retaining a representative sample of the Receivables having a principal balance equal to not less than 5% of the Cutoff Date Pool
Balance. This retained interest may not be sold, pledged or hedged, except for the hedging of interest rate or currency risk, during the term of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

ARTICLE IV 
 ADMINISTRATION AND
SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES 
   Section 4.01   Duties of Servicer. 

(a)      The Servicer, for the benefit of the Noteholders, shall manage, service, administer
and make collections on the Receivables and perform the other actions required by the Servicer under this Agreement. The Servicer shall be required to service the Receivables in accordance with reasonable care but in no event less than the care that
the Servicer exercises with respect to all comparable motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and installment loans that it services for itself or others or the procedures employed by banking institutions that service motor vehicle retail
installment sale contracts or installment loans for their own account or for the account of third parties (the “Servicing Standard”). CRB agrees that for so long as CRB is the Servicer, the Servicing Standard shall be consistent in
all material respects with the servicing standards with respect to motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and installment loans, for which CRB or any of its Affiliates is the owner or the appointed servicer from time to time. 

(b)      The Servicer’s duties shall include the collection and posting of all payments on
the Receivables, responding to inquiries of Obligors, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons to Obligors, reporting any required tax information to Obligors, accounting for collections, furnishing monthly and annual statements to the
Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions and performing the other duties specified herein. The Servicer also shall administer and enforce all rights of the Issuer as holder of the Receivables and the Indenture Trustee as
pledgee of the Receivables and shall enforce the provisions of the applicable Dealer Agreements and assignment forms. To the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Servicer shall follow its customary standards, policies and procedures
and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with the managing, servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables that it may reasonably in good faith in accordance with the Servicing
Standard deem necessary or desirable. 
 (c)      Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself and any one or more of the 

  
 8 








 
Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments with
respect to the Receivables and with respect to the Financed Vehicles; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not, except (i) pursuant to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction or a
directive from an arbitrator in an arbitration proceeding or (ii) in settlement of a legal proceeding in court or in arbitration in a manner consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard or (iii) otherwise in accordance with the
Servicing Standard, and except as provided in Section 4.02(c), execute documents that would release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid amount due under any Receivable, reduce the related APR on a Receivable, waive the right to collect the
unpaid balance of any Receivable from the related Obligor, release any Obligor from its obligations with respect to a Receivable, extend the final payment date under any Receivable beyond the Class C Final Scheduled Payment Date. 

(d)      The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name or in the name of the
Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, a legal proceeding to enforce the rights of the Issuer under any Contract pursuant to Section 4.03 or to commence or participate in any other legal proceeding (including a bankruptcy
proceeding) relating to or involving a Receivable, an Obligor or a Financed Vehicle. If the Servicer commences or participates in any such legal proceeding in its own name, the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer shall thereupon be deemed to have
automatically assigned the applicable Receivable to the Servicer, solely for purposes of commencing or participating in such proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer to
execute and deliver in the Indenture Trustee’s or the Issuer’s name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other documents or instruments in connection with any such proceeding. If in any enforcement suit or
legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce the rights of the Issuer under the Contract on the ground that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce such rights, the Owner Trustee shall, subject
to the terms of the Trust Agreement, at the Servicer’s expense and direction, take steps to enforce such rights, including bringing suit in its name or the name of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders. The Owner Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee shall upon the written request of the Servicer furnish the Servicer as soon as practicable with any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and
administrative duties hereunder. 
 (e)      For all purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer
shall be an independent contractor and shall not be subject to the supervision of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee with respect to the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations hereunder. Unless
expressly set forth herein or otherwise authorized by the Issuer, the Servicer shall have no authority to act for or represent the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder in any way and shall not otherwise be deemed an
agent of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder. 

  Section 4.02   Collection of Payments on Receivables; Extensions. 

(a)      The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under
the terms and provisions of the Contracts as and when the same shall become due, in accordance with the Servicing Standard. 

  
 9 








 (b)      (i)  The Servicer may grant
payment extensions and holidays on the Receivables in accordance with the Servicing Standard and as required by law; provided, however, that no such extension shall extend the final payment date on any Receivable beyond the last day of
the Collection Period immediately preceding the Class C Final Scheduled Payment Date, and (ii) upon any extension of a Receivable not in accordance with Section 4.02(b)(i) or upon the reduction of the APR or Principal Balance of any
Receivable other than as required by Applicable Law (including by the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, the California Military Families Financial Relief Act or similar State law), the Servicer shall be required to purchase the related Receivable in
accordance with Section 4.07. 
 (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer is
authorized in its discretion to grant a Small Balance Waiver with respect to any Receivable, and to waive any prepayment charge, late payment charge or any other similar fees that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing any Receivable.

   Section 4.03   Realization upon Receivables. 

(a)      Consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of and liquidate any Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable with respect to which the Servicer shall have determined that eventual payment in full is unlikely. The Servicer shall begin such
repossession and conversion procedures as soon as practicable after default on such Receivable in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that the Servicer will not repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of a
Financed Vehicle within such time period if it calculates that the proceeds ultimately recoverable with respect to the related Receivable would be increased by forbearance. In repossessing or otherwise converting the ownership of a Financed Vehicle
and liquidating the related Receivable, the Servicer is authorized to follow such customary practices and procedures as it shall reasonably deem necessary or advisable, consistent with the Servicing Standard, which practices and procedures may
include the sale of the Financed Vehicle at public or private sale, the submission of claims under an insurance policy and other actions by the Servicer in order to realize upon such Receivable; provided, however, that in any case in
which the Financed Vehicle shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any repair or towards the repossession of such Financed Vehicle unless it shall determine in its reasonable judgment that such repair or
repossession shall increase the related Liquidation Proceeds by an amount materially greater than the expense for such repair or repossession. The Servicer shall be entitled to recover all expenses incurred by it that are reasonably allocated to
repossessing and liquidating a Financed Vehicle into cash proceeds (other than overhead), but only out of the cash proceeds of the sale of such Financed Vehicle or any deficiency obtained from the related Obligor. 

(b)      If the Servicer elects to commence a Proceeding to enforce a Dealer Agreement, the act
of commencement shall be deemed to be an automatic assignment from the Issuer to the Servicer of the rights of recourse under such Dealer Agreement. If, however, in any Proceeding, it is held that the Servicer may not enforce a Dealer Agreement on
the grounds that it is not a real party in interest or a Person entitled to enforce the Dealer Agreement, the Issuer, at the Servicer’s expense and direction, shall take such steps as the Servicer deems necessary to enforce the Dealer
Agreement, including bringing suit in its name or the names of the Indenture 

  
 10 








 
Trustee, not in its individual capacity, but solely as Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer, or the Holders of the Notes. 

  Section 4.04  Physical Damage Insurance.  The Servicer shall, in accordance with
the Servicing Standard, require that each Obligor shall have obtained physical loss damage insurance covering the related Financed Vehicle as of the execution of the related Contract. 

  Section 4.05   Maintenance of Security Interests in Financed Vehicles; Other Amounts. 

(a)      The Servicer shall, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, take such steps as are
necessary to maintain the perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle. The Servicer is hereby authorized to take such steps as are necessary to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the event of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle or for any other reason. In the event that the assignment of a Receivable to the Issuer is insufficient, without a notation on the related Financed Vehicle’s
certificate of title or without fulfilling any additional administrative requirements under the laws of the State in which such Financed Vehicle is located, to perfect a security interest in the related Financed Vehicle in favor of the Issuer and
the Indenture Trustee, each of the Servicer and CRB hereby agree that the designation of CRB as the secured party on such certificate of title shall only be in its capacity as agent of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee. The Servicer shall not
release, in whole or in part, any security interest in a Financed Vehicle created by the related Receivable except as permitted herein or in accordance with its customary standards, policies, practices and procedures, including the payment in full
by the Obligor of all amounts payable pursuant to that Receivable. 
 (b)      The Seller,
the Depositor, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer hereby agree that, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, the Noteholders representing a majority of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of the Controlling Class
may take or cause to be taken such actions as may in the Opinion of Counsel to such Noteholders, be necessary to perfect or re-perfect the security interests in the Financed Vehicles in the name of the Issuer, including by amending the title
documents of the Financed Vehicles. The Servicer hereby agrees to pay all expenses related to such perfection or re-perfection and to take all action necessary therefor. If such expenses are not paid within fifteen (15) days after delivery of
any invoice therefor, such expenses shall be paid from the amounts otherwise payable to the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.04(a)(i). 

  Section 4.06  Covenants of Servicer.  By its execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the Servicer hereby covenants as follows (upon which covenants the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee rely in accepting the Collateral and delivering the Notes): 

(a)      Liens in Force. No Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable shall be released in
whole or in part from the security interest granted by the Obligor, except upon payment in full of such Receivable (subject to any Small Balance Waiver) or as otherwise contemplated herein or in accordance with the Servicing Standard. 

  
 11 








 (b)       No Impairment. The Servicer shall
do nothing to impair the rights of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in the property of the Issuer. 

(c)       No Amendments. The Servicer shall not extend or otherwise amend the terms of
any Receivable, except in accordance with the Servicing Standard, Section 4.01(c) and Section 4.02. 

(d)       Notice of Material Litigation. The Servicer shall provide notice of material
litigation, actions or judgments involving CRB or the Depositor to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee; provided that, except with respect to any such material litigation, actions or judgments involving the Issuer or the Depositor, the
Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with the foregoing covenant with respect to any material litigation or judgments relating to the Servicer, to the extent that it or its parent company (California Republic Bancorp) properly complied with its
disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act. 
 (e)       Compliance with Agreement,
Basic Documents and Applicable Law. The Servicer shall comply with its obligations under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party. The Servicer shall comply with all Applicable Law where the failure to do so could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (f)       Arm’s
Length. With respect to its obligations in connection with the Conveyed Assets, the Servicer shall transact and deal with its Affiliates on an arm’s length basis. 

(g)       Licenses and Approvals. The Servicer shall ensure that it has and maintains
all licenses and approvals necessary for the conduct of its business in the jurisdictions where the Financed Vehicles are located. 

(h)       Restrictions on Liens. The Servicer shall not (i) create, incur or suffer
to exist, or agree to create, incur or suffer to exist, or consent to or permit in the future (upon the occurrence of a contingency or otherwise) the creation, incurrence or existence of any Lien (other than suffering to exist any tax liens,
mechanics’ liens and any other liens that attach to property by operation of law (including statutory purchase liens) to the extent the applicable obligations are not past due) on or restriction on transferability of any Receivable except for
the Lien of the Indenture and the restrictions on transferability imposed by this Agreement or (ii) other than as contemplated herein or in the Indenture, file or authorize the filing in any jurisdiction of any UCC financing statement that
names CRB, the Depositor or any other Person as a debtor, and any Person other than the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer as a secured party, or sign any security agreement authorizing any secured party thereunder to file any such
financing statement, in each case with respect to the Receivables. 
   Section 4.07  Purchase
of Receivables by Servicer upon Breach of Covenant.  Upon discovery by any of the Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor, the Issuer or a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee of a breach of any of the covenants set forth in Sections
4.02(b), 4.05(a) or 4.06, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties hereto; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not affect any obligation of the
Servicer under this Section 4.07. Within thirty (30) days of the discovery or notice of such breach, the Servicer shall use its best efforts to cure such breach. On or before the Payment Date 

  
 12 








 
immediately following the end of the Collection Period in which the 30-day cure period referred to above has ended, the Servicer shall, unless such breach shall have been cured by such date,
purchase from the Issuer the Receivable(s) affected by such breach. In consideration of the purchase of such Receivable(s), the Servicer shall remit the related Repurchase Price into the Collection Account, with written notice to the Indenture
Trustee of such deposit, in the manner specified in Section 5.05. Subject to Section 7.03, it is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Servicer to purchase any Receivable with respect to which such a breach has occurred and is
continuing shall, if such obligation is fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against the Servicer for such breach available to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders. 

  Section 4.08  Servicing Fee.  The Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Servicer
on each Payment Date. That part of the Servicing Fee that is based on the Servicing Fee Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses (apart from
expenses incurred in accordance with the Servicing Standard in connection with liquidating a Financed Vehicle related to a Liquidated Receivable, such as auction, painting, repair or refurbishment in respect of that Financed Vehicle) incurred by it
in connection with its activities under this Agreement (including taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred in connection with distributions and reports made by the Servicer to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee and any fees and
expenses of sub-servicers to whom it has delegated servicing responsibilities). 

  Section 4.09  Servicer’s Monthly Certificate.  Not later than
10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Determination Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee, with a copy to each Rating Agency, a Servicer’s Monthly Certificate, in substantially the form of
Exhibit B-1, containing all information necessary to make the payments to be made on the related Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.04 for the related Collection Period and any other information the Indenture Trustee may reasonably
request. Such Servicer’s Monthly Certificate shall be certified by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer that the information provided is complete, accurate and no event has occurred that, with notice or passage of time, would be an Event of
Default or a Servicer Termination Event. The Servicer shall also specify to the Trustees, no later than the Determination Date following the last day of a Collection Period as of which the Seller shall separately identify (by account number), in a
written notice to the Depositor and the Trustees, the Receivables to be repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer, as the case may be, for the related Collection Period. 

  Section 4.10  Annual Statement as to Compliance; Notice of Servicer Termination Event. 

(a)       The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, and
each Rating Agency, prior to March 31 of each calendar year, beginning with March 31, 2015, an officer’s certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer (the “Servicer’s Annual Certification”) in
substantially the form of Exhibit B-2. 

(b)       The Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, each Rating Agency
and the Depositor, promptly after having obtained knowledge thereof, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, written notice in an officer’s certificate from a 

  
 13 








 
Responsible Officer thereof of any event that is, or with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both would become, a Servicer Termination Event. 

(c)       Prior to March 31 of each calendar year, beginning with March 31, 2015, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Administrator and any other Person that will be responsible for signing the certification required by Rules 13a-14(d) and 15d-14(d) under the Exchange Act (pursuant to Section 302

Compliance. 
 (a)       Prior to March 31 of each calendar year, beginning with
March 31, 2015, the Servicer shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants that is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and is independent of the Seller, the Depositor, and the Servicer within the
meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, to furnish a report to the Owner Trustee, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency to the effect that such firm has examined the
documents or records of the Servicer relating to the Receivables and that such examination (i) was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and (ii) included tests relating to motor vehicle retail installment sale
contracts and installment loans serviced for others and that such firm is of the opinion that the provisions of this Agreement have been complied with during the preceding calendar year (or, with respect to the first report, the period from the
Closing Date to December 31 of such year), and that, on the basis of such examination, nothing has come to their attention that would indicate that such servicing has not been conducted in compliance therewith during such calendar year or
other period, except for (x) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial and (y) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement; provided, however, that the Servicer shall direct the Indenture
Trustee in writing to enter into any agreed upon procedure letter that may be executed in connection with any accountant’s report issued hereunder and the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in connection with any such accountant’s
report or the content of any such agreed upon procedure letter; and provided, further, that, if CSC is at any time acting as Servicer, it may satisfy the obligations set forth in this Section 4.11, by delivering on an annual basis
a report prepared with respect to it in accordance with SSAE 16, such report to be provided by CSC under this Section 4.11 within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such report.

Section 4.11(b), the Servicer will deliver to the Depositor and the Trustees a report regarding the Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year (or, if applicable, such
shorter period as shall have elapsed since the Closing Date in the case of the first such report), in accordance with paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-18 and Rule 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 

  
 14

non-compliance, as required by Rule 13a-18 or Rule 15d-18 under the Servicing Criteria covered in such report during the preceding fiscal year, including disclosure of any material instance of non-compliance, as required by Rule 13a-18 or Rule

that the Servicer’s assertion of compliance with the specified Servicing Criteria is fairly stated in all material respects, or the reason why such an opinion cannot be expressed. Such report must be available for general use and not contain
restricted use language. 
 Section 4.12  Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding
Receivables.  The Servicer shall provide to representatives of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders reasonable access to the documentation regarding the Receivables Files. Access shall be afforded without
charge, but only upon reasonable request and conducted in a reasonable manner, during the normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall affect the obligation of the Servicer to observe any Applicable Law
prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors and the failure of the Servicer to provide access to information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section. 

Section 4.13  Term of Servicer.  The Servicer hereby covenants and agrees to act as Servicer
under, and for the term of, this Agreement, and during such time perform its obligations hereunder. 

Section 4.14   Access to Information Regarding Issuer and Basic Documents.  CRB, as initial
Servicer (and if CRB is no longer acting as Servicer, CRB, as Seller), shall furnish to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee from time to time such information regarding the Issuer or the Basic Documents as the Owner Trustee and Indenture

to the Owner Trustee annually a copy of the Register; provided, however, the Indenture Trustee shall not be obligated to furnish a copy of the Register more than once each calendar year. The Servicer shall furnish to the Owner Trustee
copies of all documents and reports required to be provided by the Servicer pursuant to this Article IV. 

Section 4.15  Agreement on Compliance.  The Servicer agrees that, should any Governmental
Authority with bank regulatory powers find that the terms of this Agreement, or any agreement relating to the servicing of the Receivables constitute an unsafe and unsound condition with respect to the Servicer and such Governmental Authority
notifies the Servicer of such finding, then the Servicer shall negotiate in good faith with the Issuer to correct any such deficiencies and to bring this Agreement into compliance with Applicable Law. 

  
 15 








   Section 4.16   Compliance with the FDIC Rule.

 (a)      CRB, in its capacity as Servicer, Administrator and Seller agrees to perform the
covenants and agreements set forth in Article XII of the Indenture applicable to it and to otherwise comply with the terms of Article XII of the Indenture.

of the Indenture applicable to it and to otherwise comply with the terms of Article XII of the Indenture.

that it shall become the successor Servicer hereunder; provided, that notwithstanding that the Backup Servicer becomes successor Servicer hereunder, it shall have no obligation at any time to make Advances as set forth in Section 5.07. Any
provision in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, CSC (acting in any capacity hereunder) shall have no liability for any acts, omissions, negligence, fraud or malfeasance by any Servicer (other than CSC should it become Servicer
hereunder) or any other party to this Agreement with respect to the performance by the Servicer or other party to this Agreement of its duties hereunder, or for any errors made by the Servicer or other party to this Agreement in the performance of
such duties which cause any losses to Noteholders, Certificateholders or any other third parties, including should CSC become successor Servicer, any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by a predecessor Servicer and any obligation to
repurchase or purchase any Receivable resulting from any such breach or other act or omission by a predecessor Servicer. 

  Section 4.18  Exchange Act Reporting.  The Indenture Trustee and the Servicer
shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the Depositor’s reporting requirements under the Exchange Act with respect to the Issuer. So long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports
with respect to the Issuer, each of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor, and, in the case of an event reportable on the Form 8-K, not later than two (2) Business Days after its occurrence, of any event
reportable on the Exchange Act Reports of which such Person (or in the case of the Indenture Trustee, a Trust Officer of such Person) has knowledge. In addition, if so requested by the Depositor for the purpose of satisfying its reporting obligation
under the Exchange Act, the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer shall provide the Depositor with (i) such information which is available to such Person without unreasonable effort or expense and within such timeframe as may be reasonably
requested by the Depositor to comply with the Depositor’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act and (ii) to the extent such Person is a party (and the Depositor is not a party) to any agreement or amendment required to be filed,
copies of such agreement or amendment in EDGAR-compatible form. Each of the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided
by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or 

  
 16 








 
otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation AB and
related rules and regulations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports:

delivered to the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (provided that such certification may be revised after the date of this Agreement as agreed by the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee to reflect any guidance with respect
to such criteria from the Commission). To the extent any of the Servicing Criteria are not applicable to the Indenture Trustee, with respect to asset-backed securities transactions taken as a whole involving the Indenture Trustee and that are backed
by the same asset type backing the Notes, such report shall include such a statement to that effect. The Indenture Trustee acknowledges and agrees that the Depositor and the Servicer with respect to its duties as the Certifying Person, and each of

expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must be available for general use and not contain restricted use language. 

(iii)     In the event the Indenture Trustee is terminated or resigns during the term
of this Agreement, such Person shall provide the documents and information pursuant to this Section with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or provided services with respect to the Issuer or the Receivables. 

(e)      The Indenture Trustee represents that: 

(i)      there are no affiliations relating to the Indenture Trustee with
respect to any Item 1119 Party; 
 (ii)      there are no relationships
or transactions with respect to any Item 1119 Party and the Indenture Trustee that are outside the ordinary course of business or on terms other than would be obtained in an arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated third party, apart
from the transactions contemplated under the Basic Documents, and that are material to the investors’ understanding of the Notes; and 

(iii)    no litigation is pending or, to the best of the Indenture Trustee’s
knowledge, threatened against the Indenture Trustee that, if determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee, in the Indenture Trustee’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Indenture
Trustee to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

Accounts (including amounts, if any, which the Servicer is required to remit to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.02) shall be invested first in Federated Prime Obligations Fund #143 for so long as Federated Prime Obligations Fund
#143 is a Permitted Investment. If Federated Prime Obligations Fund #143 ceases to be a Permitted Investment, the funds deposited in each of the Trust Accounts shall second be held in Goldman Sachs Prime Obligations Fund #1235 for so long as Goldman
Sachs Prime Obligations Fund #1235 is a Permitted Investment. If Goldman Sachs Prime Obligations Fund #1235 ceases to be a Permitted Investment, the funds deposited in each of the Trust Accounts shall third be held in JPM Prime Money Fund #349 for

market mutual fund (provided such fund is a Permitted Investment) that has a principal investment strategy and an investment objective that are each substantially identical to Federated Prime Obligations Fund #143. Such investments shall mature, in
the case of the Reserve Account, prior to the Business Day prior to the next Payment Date, and, in the case of the Collection Account, on the Payment Date in the Collection Period following the Collection Period during which the investment was made;

Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and no Permitted Investments may be purchased at a premium. Amounts invested in Permitted Investments may not be converted into cash, sold or otherwise disposed of other than (i) upon
maturity of the related investment, (ii) upon the date the related investment no longer meets the investment criteria of a Permitted Investment, or (iii) on any Payment Date, in order to allow the amount invested to be distributed to the
Noteholders or Certificateholders in accordance with Section 5.04. 
 (c)      For so
long as CRB is acting as Servicer hereunder, in the event that there are Net Investment Losses in Permitted Investments chosen by the Servicer, the Servicer shall deposit the amount of such Net Investment Losses into the Collection Account no later
than one Business Day prior to the Payment Date. The Indenture Trustee shall not be held liable in any way for any Net Investment Losses, except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Permitted
Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as Indenture Trustee, in accordance with their terms.

be part of the assets of the Issuer, except as otherwise set forth herein. The Trust Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. The Servicer shall have no power or right to

transfer any cash and/or any investments from the account that is no longer an Eligible Account to the new Trust Account.

agrees, by its acceptance hereof, that:

Property that is held in deposit accounts shall be held solely in the Eligible Accounts, subject to the last sentence of Section 5.01(d)(i); and each such Eligible Account shall be subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Indenture
Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto;

Indenture Trustee; 
 (C)      any Trust Account Property that is a
book-entry security held through the Federal Reserve System pursuant to federal book-entry regulations shall be delivered in accordance with paragraph (b) of the definition of “Delivery” and shall be maintained by the Indenture

(including servicing, underwriting or realization issues (including with respect to violations of consumer protection laws)) arising out of or resulting from the use, ownership or operation by the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof of a Financed
Vehicle, excluding any losses incurred solely in connection with the sale of any repossessed Financed Vehicles in a commercially reasonable manner and in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(c)      The Servicer shall indemnify the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Backup Servicer and any of the officers, directors, employees and agents of each such Person, from and against any taxes that may at any time be asserted against any of such parties with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement,

not indemnify any Person for any costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities due to the credit risk of any Obligor and for which reimbursement would constitute recourse for uncollectible Receivables. 

(d)      The Servicer shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee, the Backup
Servicer and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) directly or indirectly related to, arising out of or incurred in

negligence of the Person seeking to be indemnified; (B) to the extent otherwise payable to the Indenture Trustee, arises from the Indenture Trustee’s breach of any of its representations or warranties under the Indenture; (C) to the
extent otherwise payable to the Owner Trustee, arises from the Owner Trustee’s breach of any of its representations or warranties set forth under the Trust Agreement; (D) to the extent otherwise payable to the Backup Servicer, arises from

the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) to the
extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon any such Person (i) through any breach of the Servicer’s obligations hereunder and under the other Basic Documents, (ii) the
negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Servicer (except errors in judgment) in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, (iii) by reason of breach of its representations, warranties, obligations or duties under this
Agreement, or (iv) for any violation of law by the Servicer.

to Section 8.03 and in the case of the Backup Servicer or the Indenture Trustee becoming successor 

  
 31 








 
Servicer, CRB shall continue to be deemed the Servicer for purposes of the indemnities in this Section 7.03. If the Servicer shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this
Section 7.03 and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Servicer, without interest. 

(g)      Indemnification under this Section 7.03 shall survive the resignation or removal

Servicer or Backup Servicer.   Any Person (i) into which the Servicer or the Backup Servicer may be merged or consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Servicer or the Backup Servicer shall be
a party, (iii) that acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease substantially all of the assets of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer or (iv) succeeding to the business of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, which Person shall execute an
agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement and any other Basic Document to which such entity is a party, shall be the successor to the Servicer or the Backup
Servicer, respectively, under this Agreement or any such Basic Document without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement. The Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as applicable, shall
provide notice of any merger, consolidation or succession pursuant to this Section 7.04 to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not merge or consolidate with any
other Person where it shall not be the survivor thereof or permit any other Person to become a successor to its automobile finance or leasing business unless (i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no representation or warranty
made pursuant to Section 7.01 shall have been breached (for purposes hereof, such representations and warranties shall speak as of the date of the consummation of such transaction) and no event that, after notice or lapse of time or both, would
become a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred, (ii) the Servicer shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an officer’s certificate from a Responsible Officer and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such
consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 7.04 and that all conditions precedent provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, (iii) the Servicer
shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that either (A) all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary to

(iv) such other Person is an Eligible Servicer and (v) such other Person shall have validly assumed the obligations of the Servicer under the Basic Documents. 

    Section 7.05   Limitation on Liability of Servicer, Backup Servicer and Others.

 (a)      Neither the Servicer nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees or
agents shall be under any liability to the Issuer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, or the Noteholders, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any 

  
 32 








 
action pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer against any liability by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of its duties nor otherwise alter the indemnification obligations under Section 7.03. The Servicer, the Backup Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer may
conclusively rely in good faith on the written advice of counsel on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement or any other Basic Document. 

(b)      Should the Indenture Trustee at any time agree to become successor Servicer hereunder,
the parties expressly acknowledge and consent to the Indenture Trustee’s simultaneously acting in the capacity of successor Servicer and Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may, in such capacities, discharge its separate functions fully,
without hindrance or regard to conflict of interest principles, duty of loyalty principles or other breach of fiduciary duties to the extent that any such conflict or breach arises from the performance by the Indenture Trustee of express duties set
forth in this Agreement in any of such capacities. 
 (c)      CSC undertakes to perform only
such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being expressly understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of CSC hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, CSC,
except as expressly set forth herein, shall have no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer. CSC may act through its agents, nominees, attorneys and custodians in performing any of its duties and
obligations under this Agreement but any such appointment shall not release CSC from its obligations and responsibilities hereunder. 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall CSC be liable for any consequential, incidental
or special damages, including, but not limited to damages for loss of currency, funds, data, profits or goodwill. CSC’s maximum liability for any breach of this Agreement by it in its capacity as Backup Servicer shall not exceed the fees
actually paid to CSC hereunder for the services as Backup Servicer for the 12 month period immediately preceding such breach, provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 7.05 shall not apply to or in any way limit
CSC’s liability arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of CSC. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that CSC is not guaranteeing or insuring the performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other
parties hereto or any of the Receivables. 
 CSC makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility as to
the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Receivables, will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value of any of the
Receivables, shall not be responsible for the eligibility of any Receivable, or, except as is otherwise provided hereunder in the event CSC is then acting as successor Servicer, for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the liens
in any of the Receivables, for insuring the Receivables or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Receivables or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Receivables. 

  
 33 








 Section 7.06  Appointment of Subservicer. 

(a)       Subject to clause (b) below, the Servicer may at any time reasonably appoint a
subservicer in good faith to perform all or any portion of its obligations as Servicer hereunder. 
 (b)
      The appointment of a subservicer pursuant to clause (a) above is subject to the condition that the Servicer remains obligated and liable to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders for the
servicing and administering of the Receivables in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation and liability by virtue of the appointment of such subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and
conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Conveyed Assets. 
 (c)
      The fees and expenses of any subservicer shall be as agreed between the Servicer and such subservicer from time to time, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the
Noteholders shall have any responsibility therefor. 
 (d)       Any such subservicing
agreement shall provide that a successor to the Servicer may at its discretion, upon becoming successor Servicer, either continue or terminate without fee such arrangement. 

Section 7.07  Servicer and Backup Servicer Not to Resign. 

(a)       Subject to the provisions of Section 7.04, neither the Servicer nor the Backup
Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it by this Agreement, except upon a determination that the performance of its duties under this Agreement shall no longer be permissible under Applicable Law. 

(b)       Notice of any determination that the performance by the Servicer or the Backup
Servicer of its duties contemplated hereunder is no longer permitted under Applicable Law shall be communicated to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at the earliest practicable time (and, if such communication is not in writing, shall be
confirmed in writing at the earliest practicable time) and any such determination shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered by the Servicer or the Backup Servicer to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee concurrently
with or promptly after such notice. Except as may otherwise be required by Applicable Law, no resignation of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer shall become effective until a successor acceptable to the Noteholders representing a majority of the
Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of the Controlling Class shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of such Person in accordance with Section 8.03. If no successor has been appointed within thirty (30) days of
resignation or removal, the Noteholders representing a majority of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of the Controlling Class may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for such appointment. 

Section 7.08  CRB May Own Notes.  CRB and any Affiliate thereof may in its individual or any
other capacity become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Servicer, except as expressly provided herein or in any Basic Document.

or, at the written direction of Noteholders holding a majority of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of the Controlling Class, shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement by notice in writing to the
Servicer, each Rating Agency and the Noteholders. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority, power, obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer under this Agreement automatically shall pass to, be vested in
and become obligations and responsibilities of, either the Backup Servicer (if the Backup Servicer becomes the successor Servicer pursuant to Section 8.03) or the successor Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 8.03; provided,
however, that such successor Servicer shall have no liability with respect to any obligation that was required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that such successor Servicer becomes the Servicer or any claim of a
third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer. As soon as practicable after the declaration of a Servicer Termination Event, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the Backup Servicer thereof and in any event shall
notify the Backup Servicer of any notice by the Indenture Trustee to, or direction to the Indenture Trustee from, Noteholders regarding a Servicer Termination Event. 

(b)       The successor Servicer is authorized and empowered by this Agreement to execute and

Servicer, as the case may be, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the rights, responsibilities,

succession. If such a successor is acting as Servicer, it shall be subject to termination under Section 8.01(a) upon the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event after its appointment as successor Servicer.

as the successor to the Servicer, and shall have no liability to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, the Depositor, any Noteholders or any other Person if it does so. Notwithstanding the above, if the Holders of a majority of the
Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of the Controlling Class does not act, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or Noteholders evidencing at least 25% of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes may petition a court of competent

 MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 10.01  Amendment. 

(a)       It shall be a condition to the execution and delivery of any amendment to be entered
into under this Section 10.01 that the Rating Agency Condition be satisfied with respect to such amendment. In no event may this Agreement be amended in any way that would (i) materially and adversely affect the Owner Trustee’s
or the Indenture Trustee’s, as applicable, own rights, privileges, indemnities, duties or obligations under this Agreement, the other Basic Documents or otherwise without the prior written consent of such Person; or (ii) significantly
change the permitted activities or powers of the Issuer even if such amendment would not have an adverse effect on the Holders of the Notes, without the consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of
the Controlling Class. 
 (b)       This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the
parties hereto with the consent of Noteholders holding a majority of the Note Balance of the Outstanding Notes of the Controlling Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that this Agreement may be amended without the consent of the Noteholders to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
hereof that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision of this Agreement, to add or supplement any credit enhancement arrangement or to add any covenants, restrictions or obligations of the parties to this Agreement, or to make other
changes that, pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel, do not have a material and adverse effect on the interests of the Noteholders nor increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of collections on the Receivables or
payments that are to be made hereunder for the benefit of the Noteholders. 
 (c)
      Promptly after the execution of any amendment or consent, the Administrator shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment or consent to each Noteholder, the Indenture Trustee and each
Rating Agency. 
 (d)       Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the
Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Owner Trustee, on
behalf of the Issuer, and the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Owner Trustee’s or the Indenture Trustee’s, as applicable, own rights, duties or immunities under this
Agreement or otherwise. 
 (e)       No amendment may increase or reduce in any manner the
amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of, collections on payments on the Receivables or payments that 

  
 39 








 
are required to be made for the benefit of the Noteholders without the consent of each Noteholder. 

Section 10.02  Protection of Title to Trust. 

(a)       CRB, as initial Servicer, shall execute and file such financing statements and cause
to be executed and filed such continuation statements, or take such other actions all in such a manner and in such places as may be required by Applicable Law or as shall be necessary to fully preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the
Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in the Collateral and the proceeds thereof. The Issuer hereby authorizes the filing of financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby “all assets of the debtor, including all personal property
of the debtor” or words to that effect, and any limitations on such collateral description, notwithstanding that such collateral description may be broader in scope than the Conveyed Assets described in this Agreement. All financing statements
filed or to be filed against in connection with this Agreement describing the Collateral shall contain a statement to the following effect: “A purchase of, or grant of a security interest in, any of the collateral covered by this financing
statement will violate the rights of the secured party.” The Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above as
soon as available following such filing. 
 (b)       Neither the Depositor, Seller, nor the
Servicer shall change its name, identity or limited liability company or corporate structure, as applicable, in any manner that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed in accordance with paragraph (a)
above seriously misleading under Section 9-506 or 9-507 of the UCC, unless it shall have given the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have promptly filed
appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements or continuation statements. 
 (c)
      Each of the Depositor, the Issuer and CRB shall give the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior written notice of any relocation of its principal executive
office if, as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement, and shall promptly file any such
amendment or new financing statement. The Servicer shall at all times maintain each office from which it shall service Receivables, and its principal executive office, within the United States (other than the State of Louisiana). 

(d)       The Servicer shall maintain accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and
in sufficient detail to permit (i) the reader thereof to know at any time the status of each such Receivable, including payments and recoveries made and payments owing (and the nature of each) and (ii) reconciliation between payments or
recoveries on or with respect to each such Receivable and the amounts from time to time deposited in the Collection Account in respect of each such Receivable. 

(e)       Each of the Servicer and the Depositor shall maintain its computer systems so that,
from and after the time of sale of the Receivables under this Agreement, its 

  
 40 








 
master computer records (including any backup archives) that refer to a Receivable shall be coded to reflect that such Receivable is part of the portfolio of Receivables that is the subject of
this Agreement and is held by the Indenture Trustee for the Issuer. Indication of such inclusion of a Receivable in the portfolio shall be deleted from or modified on its computer systems when, and only when, the related Receivable shall have been
paid in full or repurchased or reallocated, as the case may be. 
 (f)       If at any time
the Depositor or CRB shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle retail installment sale contract or installment loan to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, and
provides such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, if any, any computer tapes, records or printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, such computer tapes, records or
printouts (including any restored from backup archives) shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by the Issuer and has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee. 

(g)       The Servicer shall permit the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and their agents
and accountants upon reasonable notice and in a reasonable manner at any time during normal business hours, to inspect, audit and make copies of and abstracts from the Servicer’s records regarding any Receivable. 

(h)       Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Owner Trustee or the Indenture
Trustee, within five (5) Business Days, a list of all Receivables (by Contract number and name of Obligor) then held as part of the Issuer, together with a reconciliation of such list to the Schedule of Receivables furnished prior to such
request indicating removal of Conveyed Assets from the Trust.
