(a)    If either (i) the introduction of or any change (including any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any Applicable Law or (ii) the compliance by a Lender or any of its Affiliates (each, an “Affected Party”) with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall (A) subject an Affected Party to any Tax (except for Excluded Taxes and any Taxes as to which an Additional Amount is payable pursuant to Section 2.12) with respect to a Loan hereunder, or on any payment made hereunder, (B) impose any cost pursuant to Section 2.11(e), (C) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including any reserve requirement imposed by the Federal Reserve Board, but excluding any reserve requirement, if any, included in the determination of Interest), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the amount of, or credit extended by, any Affected Party, (D) impose any other condition affecting a Loan or a Lender’s rights hereunder, the result of which is (1) a fee expense or other out-of-pocket cost allocable to any Affected Party, (2) any increased cost charged to any Affected Party or (3) to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement, then within 30 days after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a reasonably estimated calculation of such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.
(b)    If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request (including the Dodd-Frank Act, Basel II, Basel III or the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines) or (ii) compliance by any Affected Party with any law, 

31

guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other governmental authority or agency (whether or not having the force of law), including compliance by an Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, but in each case excluding Taxes (including the Dodd-Frank Act, Basel II, Basel III or the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines), that has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or arising in connection herewith to a level below that which any such Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then from time to time, within 30 days after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a reasonably estimated calculation of such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such reduction.
(c)    In determining any amount provided for in this Section, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(e)    If any Owner has, or anticipates having, any claim for compensation under the Risk-Based Capital Requirements against the Borrower, and such Owner believes that having the transactions contemplated by this Agreement publicly rated by a Rating Agency or qualifying under the supervisory formula approach under Basel II or Basel III would reduce the amount of such compensation by an amount deemed by such Owner to be material, such Owner shall provide a Rating Request to the Borrower and the Servicer.  The Borrower and the Servicer may elect, in their sole discretion, to obtain a credit rating and, upon making such election, shall cooperate with such Owner’s efforts to obtain a credit rating from the Rating Agency specified in the Rating Request at the level that reasonably reflects the economics and credit of the Loans at the time of the request, and shall provide directly or through distribution to the Administrative Agent or Owner any information such Rating Agency may require for purposes of providing and monitoring the credit rating.  The Servicer shall pay all of the initial, subsequent or ongoing fees payable to the Rating Agency in connection with a Rating Request.  

32

Section 2.12.  Taxes.
(a)    All payments made by the Obligor with respect to any Receivable and by the Borrower in respect of any Loan and all other payments made by the Borrower or the Servicer under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, unless such withholding or deduction is required by Applicable Law.  In such event, the Borrower shall pay to the appropriate taxing authority any such Taxes required to be deducted or withheld and if such Taxes are not Excluded Taxes the amount payable to each Lender will be increased (such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this Agreement after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes other than Excluded Taxes (including 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.  If a Lender pays any Taxes other than Excluded Taxes in respect of which the Borrower is obligated to pay Additional Amounts under this Section, on the Payment Date in the month following the month during which the Lender demands payment, the Borrower shall promptly reimburse such Lender in full.
(b)    The Borrower will indemnify each Lender for the full amount of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) in respect of which the Borrower is required to pay Additional Amounts (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on such Additional Amounts) paid by such Lender, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Lender making a demand for indemnity payment hereunder shall provide the Borrower with a certificate from the relevant taxing authority or from a Responsible Officer of such Lender stating or otherwise evidencing that such Lender has made payment of such Taxes and will provide a copy of or extract from documentation, if available, furnished by such taxing authority evidencing assertion or payment of such Taxes.  This indemnification shall be made on the Payment Date in the month following the month during which the Lender makes written demand therefor.
(c)    Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of any Taxes pursuant to this Section, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof, appropriate evidence of payment thereof.
(d)    Within 30 days of the written request of the Borrower therefor, the related Lender shall execute and deliver to the Borrower such certificates, forms or other documents which can be furnished consistent with the facts and which are reasonably necessary to assist the Borrower in applying for refunds of Taxes remitted hereunder; provided, however, that (i) no Lender shall be required to deliver such certificates, forms or other documents if in its sole discretion it is determined that the delivering of such certificate, form or other document would have a material adverse effect on such Lender or (ii) the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender for any reasonable expenses incurred in the delivery of any certificate, form or other document.
(e)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of Taxes with respect to payments made under any Basic Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Collateral Custodian, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Collateral Custodian, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Collateral Custodian as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested 

33

by the Borrower or the Collateral Custodian, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Collateral Custodian as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender or assignee is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A)    any Lender that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when required by Applicable Law or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding;
(B)    any Lender that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when required by Applicable Law or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower) whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)    two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;
(2)    two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);
(3)    in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for “portfolio interest” under Code Section 881(c) (x) a statement certifying that such Lender is not (I) a “bank” extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business within the meaning of Code Section 881(c)(3)(A), (II) a “10 percent shareholder” within the meaning of Code Section 881(c)(3)(B) or (III) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Code Section 881(c)(3)(C), and that no payments in connection with the Basic Documents are effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form); or
(4)    to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form) of the Lender, accompanied by an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN claiming benefits under a treaty, Form W-8BEN and U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9 (or other successor forms) or any other required information from each beneficial 

34

owner, as applicable.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.
(f)    If a payment made to a Lender under any Basic Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FACTA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FACTA, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under FACTA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FACTA or the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. 
(g)    If, in connection with the funding or maintenance of Loans hereunder, the Lenders are required to compensate a bank or other financial institution in respect of Taxes under circumstances similar to those described in this Section, then on the Payment Date in the month following the month during which the Lender demands payment, the Borrower shall promptly reimburse such Lender in full.
Section 2.13.  Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Notes owned by it any payment in excess of its Invested Percentage in such payment, such Lender shall immediately (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (ii) purchase from the other Lenders such participations made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata (based on the Lender Percentage of each Lender) with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender was the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.  The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section.

ARTICLE THREE
 SECURITY
Section 3.01.  Collateral.
(a)    The parties hereto intend that this Agreement constitute a security agreement and the transactions effected hereby constitute secured loans by the Lenders to the Borrower under Applicable Law.  As collateral security for the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations, the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, a lien on and security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following, whether now existing or owned or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower (collectively, the “Collateral”):
(i)    the Receivables and the related Contracts, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, and any accounts or obligations evidenced thereby, any guarantee thereof, all Collections and all monies due (including any payments made under any guarantee or similar credit enhancement with respect to the Receivables and Contracts) to become due or received by any Person in payment of any of the foregoing on or after the Cutoff Date;
(ii)    the Financed Vehicles (including Financed Vehicles that have been repossessed) or in any document or writing evidencing any security interest in any Financed Vehicle and each security interest in each Financed Vehicle, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, securing each such Receivable, including all proceeds from any sale or other disposition of such Financed Vehicles;
(iii)    the Purchase Agreement and remedies thereunder and the assignment to the Administrative Agent of all UCC financing statements filed by the Borrower against the Originator under or in connection with the Purchase Agreement;
(iv)    the Account Collateral;
(v)    all Receivable Files, all Servicer Files and the Schedule of Receivables, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, and all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the documents, agreements and instruments included in the Receivable Files and Servicer Files, including rights of recourse of the Borrower against the Originator and/or any Dealer;
(vi)    all Records, documents and writings evidencing or related to the Receivables or the Contracts;
(vii)    all rights to payment under all Insurance Policies with respect to a Financed Vehicle, including any monies collected from whatever source in connection with any default of an Obligor with respect to a Financed Vehicle and any proceeds from claims or refunds of premiums on any Insurance Policy, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, and all proceeds thereof;

36

(viii)    all guaranties, indemnities, warranties, insurance (and proceeds and premium refunds thereof) and other agreements or arrangements of whatever character from time to time supporting or securing payment of the Receivables, whether pursuant to the related Contracts or otherwise;
(ix)    all rights to payment under all service contracts and other contracts and agreements associated with the Receivables and all of the Borrower’s interest in all recourse rights against all related Dealers; 
(x)    the Performance Guaranty;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, once the Administrative Agent has released its security interest in a Receivable in accordance with this Agreement, such Receivable, the related Financed Vehicle and all other items of Collateral relating to such Receivable shall no longer be part of the Collateral hereunder; provided, that no Receivable shall be released without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent
(b)    The grant under this Section does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Administrative Agent or any of the Secured Parties of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Person in connection with any or all of the Collateral or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower shall remain liable under the Contracts to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral and (iii) none of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for 

37

payment assigned hereunder.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing grant of security interest, no account, instrument, chattel paper or other obligation or property of any kind due from, owned by or belonging to a Sanctioned Person shall be Collateral.
Section 3.02.  Release of Collateral; No Legal Title.
(a)    At the same time as any Contract (i) expires by its terms and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account or (ii) has been prepaid in full and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account, the Administrative Agent will, to the extent requested by the Servicer, release its interest in such Contract and the related Collateral.  In connection with any sale of a Financed Vehicle on or after the occurrence of an event described in clauses (i) or (ii) above or in connection with a Defaulted Receivable, after the deposit by the Servicer of the proceeds of such sale into the Collection Account within two Business Days of receipt, the Administrative Agent will at the sole expense of the Servicer, execute and deliver to the Servicer any assignments, bills of sale, termination statements and any other releases and instruments as the Servicer may reasonably request in order to effect the release and transfer of the related Financed Vehicle; provided, that the Administrative Agent will not make any representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to any such Financed Vehicle in connection with such sale or transfer and assignment.  Nothing in this Section shall diminish the Servicer’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.03(c) with respect to the proceeds of any such sale.
(b)    Upon the Facility Termination Date, the Administrative Agent, at the Borrower’s expense, upon payment in full of the Aggregate Unpaids, shall execute and file such partial or full releases or partial or full assignments of financing statements and other documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower to effectuate the release of the relevant portion of the Collateral.
(c)    The Administrative Agent will not, except as may result from the exercise of its remedies hereunder, have legal title to any part of the Collateral on the Facility Termination Date and will have no further interest in or rights with respect to the Collateral.
Section 3.03.  Protection of Security Interest; Administrative Agent, as Attorney-in-Fact.
(a)    The Borrower agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that may reasonably be necessary or desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent in the Receivables and the other Collateral, or to enable the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder.
(b)    If the Borrower fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder after three Business Days’ notice from the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may (but shall not be required to) perform, or cause performance of, such obligation; and the reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Borrower as provided in 

38

Article Ten.  The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and appoints the Administrative Agent, as its attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of the Borrower, (i) to execute or cause to be executed on behalf of the Borrower as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of the Secured Parties in the Receivables and the other Collateral and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Receivables and the other Collateral, as a financing statement in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interests of the Secured Parties in the Receivables and the other Collateral.  This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
Section 3.04.  Assignment of the Purchase Agreement.  The Borrower hereby represents, warrants and confirms to the Administrative Agent that the Borrower has assigned to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, all of the Borrower’s right and title to and interest in the Purchase Agreement.  The Borrower confirms that the Administrative Agent shall have the sole right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Purchase Agreement for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but without any obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under the Purchase Agreement.  The Borrower further confirms and agrees that such assignment to the Administrative Agent shall terminate upon the Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties pursuant to such assignment with respect to rights and remedies in connection with any indemnities and any breach of any representation, warranty or covenants made by DTAC pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, which rights and remedies survive the termination of the Purchase Agreement, shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of such assignment.
Section 3.05.  Waiver of Certain Laws.  Each of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any part of the Collateral may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclosure the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or in such parcels as the Administrative Agent or such court may determine.

The Borrower has been duly organized, and is validly existing as a limited liability company, in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with all requisite power and authority to own or lease its properties and conduct its business as such business is presently conducted, and the Borrower had at all relevant times, and now has all necessary power, authority and legal right to acquire, own, sell and pledge the Receivables and the other Collateral.
(b)    Due Qualification.  The Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a Delaware limited liability company and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualifications, licenses or approvals (including, as applicable, the origination, purchase, sale, pledge and servicing of the Receivables) except where the failure to qualify could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)    No Violation.  The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Borrower Basic Documents and the fulfillment of the terms hereof and thereof will not (i) conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, the Formation Documents or any Contractual Obligation of the Borrower, (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the Borrower’s properties pursuant to the terms of any such Contractual Obligation, other than this Agreement, or (iii) violate any Applicable Law.

(h)    Solvency.  The transactions contemplated by the Borrower Basic Documents do not and will not render the Borrower not Solvent.

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 Receivable 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.

In consideration of a release, the Borrower shall, on the date of release of such Ineligible Receivable, make a deposit of the Release Price to the Collection Account in immediately available funds.  Upon each release to the Borrower of such Ineligible Receivable, the Administrative Agent shall automatically and without further action be deemed to transfer, assign and set-over to the Borrower, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Administrative Agent in, to and under such Ineligible Receivable and all future monies due or to become due with respect thereto, all proceeds of such Ineligible Receivable and Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds relating thereto, all rights to security for any such Ineligible Receivable, and all proceeds and products of the foregoing.

(vii)    not be responsible to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or the Collateral Custodian for any (A) act or omission to act done in order to comply with the requirements or satisfy any provisions of the Insurance Policies or (B) act, absent willful misconduct or negligence, or omission to act done in compliance with this Agreement.
In the case of any inconsistency between the requirements of the Servicer under this Agreement or the Credit and Collection Policy and the requirements of any Insurance Policy relating to a Financed Vehicle applicable to the Borrower or the Servicer, the Servicer shall comply with the latter.
(g)    Obligation to Restore.  In the event of any physical loss or damage to a Financed Vehicle related to a Receivable from any cause, whether through accidental means or otherwise, the Servicer shall have no obligation to cause the affected Financed Vehicle to be restored or repaired.  However, the Servicer shall comply with the provisions of any Insurance Policy or Insurance Policies directly or indirectly related to any physical loss or damage to a Financed Vehicle as provided in this Agreement.

(h)    Fidelity Bond.  The initial Servicer shall obtain on or prior to the Closing Date and shall maintain, at its own expense, a fidelity bond in an amount consistent with industry standards, naming the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as Administrative Agent, as an additional loss payee or beneficiary of such fidelity bond, with responsible companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting on behalf of the Servicer in any capacity with regard to the Collateral to handle funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Collateral.  Any such fidelity bond shall protect and insure the initial Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud and errors and omissions and negligent acts of such persons and shall be maintained in a form and amount that would meet the requirements of prudent servicers engaged in the business of servicing prime, subprime and nonprime motor vehicle loan agreements similar to the Receivables.  No provision of this subsection requiring such fidelity bond shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.  The initial Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if one of its respective Affiliates has such fidelity bond and, by the terms of such fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer.  The initial Servicer shall cause each and every Subservicer to maintain a fidelity bond which would meet such requirements.  Annually and more frequently upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Backup Servicer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent a certification evidencing coverage (with respect to itself and any Subservicer) under such fidelity bond.  Any such fidelity bond shall not be cancelled or modified in a materially adverse manner without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian.
(i)    Security Interests.  The Borrower hereby directs the Servicer to (i) provide written notice to the Borrower promptly upon its discovery of the relocation of a Financed Vehicle related to a Receivable and (ii) take or cause to be taken such steps as are necessary, to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each such Receivable in the related Financed Vehicle.  The Servicer shall, at the direction of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, take any action necessary to preserve and protect the security interests of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties and the Collateral Custodian in the Receivables, including any action specified in any Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Servicer.
(j)    Realization on Financed Vehicles.  The Servicer warrants, represents and covenants that in the event that the Servicer realizes upon any Financed Vehicle, the methods utilized by the Servicer to realize upon the related Receivable or otherwise enforce any provisions of such Receivable, will not subject the Servicer, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer or the Collateral Custodian to liability under any federal, State or local law, and that such enforcement by the Servicer will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Credit and Collection Policy and Applicable Law.
(k)    Recordkeeping.  The Servicer shall:
(i)    maintain legible copies (in electronic or hard-copy form, in the discretion of the Servicer) or originals of all documents in the Servicer File with respect to each Receivable and the Financed Vehicle related thereto; and
(ii)    keep books and records, satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, pertaining to each Receivable and shall make periodic reports in accordance with this 

69

Agreement; such records may not be destroyed or otherwise disposed of except as provided herein and as allowed by Applicable Law, all documents, whether developed or originated by the Servicer or not, reasonably required to document or to properly administer any Receivable shall remain at all times the property of the Borrower and shall be held in trust by the Servicer; the Servicer shall not acquire any property rights with respect to such records, and shall not have the right to possession of them except as subject to the conditions stated in this Agreement; and the Servicer shall bear the entire cost of restoration in the event any Servicer File shall become damaged, lost or destroyed while in the Servicer’s possession or control.
(l)    Inspection.  The Servicer shall permit the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Lenders, upon five Business Days’ prior notice and during the Servicer’s regular business hours (provided that from and after the occurrence of any Termination Event or Servicer Termination Event, the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Lenders shall not be required to give the foregoing notice), to periodically, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent or the Backup Servicer, review the Servicer’s collection and administration of the Receivables in order to assess compliance by the Servicer with the Credit and Collection Policy and this Agreement and may conduct an audit of the Receivables and the related Receivable Files in conjunction with such a review.  Such review may include tours of the Servicer’s facilities and discussions with management of the Servicer.  Reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such inspection shall be at the Servicer’s expense; provided, that if no Termination Event or Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Lenders or their respective agents and representatives shall only be entitled to conduct two audits of the Servicer during any 12-month period beginning on the Closing Date and on each anniversary of the Closing Date and provided, further, that if a Termination Event or Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, there shall be no limit on the number of such audits the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Lenders or their respective agents and representatives shall be entitled to conduct.  It is anticipated that each audit will be a full operational, legal, compliance and collateral audit and will verify, among other things, the existence of the Collateral, cash application, aging and eligibility, will include a litigation and regulatory review and will confirm that internal ratings actually applied conform to underwriting standards.  Each audit will also include a sample review of no fewer than 100 Receivable Files to check the accuracy of the information provided by the Borrower or the Servicer.  
Section 7.04.  Collection of Payments.
(a)    Establishment of the Collection Account and Reserve Account.  The Servicer shall cause to be established, on or before the Closing Date, and maintain in the name of the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, with a Qualified Institution, which shall initially be the Collateral Custodian, (i) the Collection Account and (ii) the Reserve Account, in each case over which the Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control and from which neither DTCC nor the Borrower shall have any right of withdrawal.
(b)    Adjustments.  If the Servicer makes (i) a deposit into the Collection Account in respect of a collection of a Receivable and such collection was received by the Servicer in the form of a check that is not honored for any reason or (ii) a mistake with respect to the amount of any collection and deposits an amount that is less than or more than the actual amount of such 

70

collection, the Servicer shall appropriately adjust the amount subsequently deposited into the Collection Account to reflect such dishonored check or mistake.  Any Scheduled Payment in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not to have been paid. 
Section 7.05.  Payment of Certain Expenses by the Initial Servicer.  The initial Servicer will be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement, including the fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants, Taxes imposed on the Servicer, expenses incurred in connection with payments and reports pursuant to this Agreement, fees and expenses of Subservicers and agents of the Servicer and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under this Agreement for the account of the Borrower.  The initial Servicer will be required to pay all reasonable fees and expenses owing to any bank or trust company in connection with the maintenance of the Collection Account.  The initial Servicer shall be required to pay such expenses for its own account and shall not be entitled to any payment therefor other than the Servicing Fee.
Section 7.06.  Reports.
(a)    Monthly Reports; Monthly Compliance Statements; Data Tapes.  On each Reporting Date, the Servicer will provide to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian (i) a Monthly Report and (ii) an Officer’s Certificate, dated as of the last day of the related Collection Period, stating that (A) a review of the activities of the Servicer during such Collection Period (or since the Closing Date in the case of the first such Officer’s Certificate) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision and (B) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such Collection Period (or such longer period in the case of the first such Officer’s Certificate), or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.  Following receipt of a request therefor from the Administrative Agent, the Servicer will provide to the Administrative Agent a data tape regarding the Receivables and other Collateral.
(b)    Financial Statements.  The initial Servicer will submit, or cause to be submitted, to the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and each Lender:
(i)    Within 105 days after the end of each of its fiscal years, audited consolidated or combined, as applicable, balance sheet and related statements of earnings, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Reporting Group as of the end of and for such year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all reported on by independent public accountants of recognized national standing (without a “going concern” or like qualification or exception or exception as to the scope of such audit) to the effect that such consolidated or combined, as applicable, financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations of the Reporting Group on a consolidated or combined basis, as applicable, in accordance with GAAP.
(ii)    Within 60 days after the end of the first three fiscal quarters of each of its fiscal year, the consolidated or combined, as applicable, balance sheet of the Reporting Group as at the close of each such fiscal quarter and related statements of earnings and 

71

cash flows as of the end of and for such fiscal quarter and the then elapsed portion of the fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the corresponding period or periods of (or, in the case of the balance sheet, as of the end of) the previous fiscal year, all certified by its chief financial officer, treasurer or controller as presenting fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations of the Reporting Group on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, subject to the normal year-end audit adjustments.
Section 7.07.  Annual Statement as to Compliance.  The Servicer shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or before March 31st of each year, beginning in 2014, an Officer’s Certificate, dated as of the preceding December 31st, stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding 12-month period (or since the Closing Date in the case of the first such Officer’s Certificate) and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement and the other Servicer Basic Documents throughout such year (or such shorter period in the case of the first such Officer’s Certificate), or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that in connection with public offerings, Regulation AB requires the delivery by servicers of an annual report on an assessment of servicing compliance on the basis of detailed servicing criteria or other report, the delivery of a copy of such report by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to satisfy the provisions of this subsection.
Section 7.08.  Annual Independent Public Accountant’s Reports.  The Servicer will deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or before March 31st of each year beginning in 2014, a copy of a report prepared by a firm of independent certified public accountants, who may also render other services to the Servicer or any of its Affiliates, addressed to the Board of Directors of the Servicer or any of its Affiliates, and the Administrative Agent and dated during the current year, to the effect that such firm has examined the Servicer’s policies and procedures and issued its report thereon and expressing a summary of findings (based on certain procedures performed on the documents, records and accounting records that such accountants considered appropriate under the circumstances) relating to the servicing of the Receivables and the administration of the Receivables (including the preparation of the Monthly Reports) during the preceding calendar year (or such longer period in the case of the first sale report) and that such servicing and administration was conducted in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, except for (i) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial and (ii) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such report and that such examination (a) was performed in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and (b) included tests relating to auto loans serviced for others in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, to the extent the procedures in such program are applicable to the servicing obligations set forth in this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that in connection with public offerings, Regulation AB requires the delivery of an annual attestation of a firm of independent public accountants with respect to the assessment of servicing compliance with specified servicing criteria of the Servicer stating, among other things, 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, the delivery of a copy of such an attestation to the Administrative Agent shall be 

72

deemed to satisfy the provisions of this Section.
In the event such independent certified public accountants require the Collateral Custodian or the Backup Servicer to agree to the procedures to be performed by such firm in any of the reports required to be prepared pursuant to this Section, the Servicer shall direct the Collateral Custodian or the Backup Servicer in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Collateral Custodian and the Backup Servicer will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer, and neither the Collateral Custodian nor the Backup Servicer has made any independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.
Such report shall also indicate that the firm is “Independent” of the Servicer and its Affiliates within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Section 7.09.  Rights Prior to Assumption of Duties by the Backup Servicer or Designation of Successor Servicer.
(a)    On or before each Reporting Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Backup Servicer an electronic file containing all information necessary to allow the Backup Servicer to review the Monthly Report related thereto and determine the following:  (i) that such Monthly Report is complete on its face, (ii) that the amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account and the balance of such account, as set forth in the records of the Servicer are the same as the amounts withdrawn from the Collection Account as set forth in the Monthly Report and (iii) the Reserve Account Amount.  The Backup Servicer shall, on the second Business Days after receipt of the electronic file referred to in the preceding sentence, load such electronic file, confirm such computer tape or diskette is in readable form and verify the following:  (i) the Pool Balance as of the most recent Determination Date and (ii) the Cumulative Net Loss Ratio as of the related Determination Date, each as set forth in the related Monthly Report.  In the event of any discrepancy between the information set forth in the Monthly Report and the information described in the two preceding sentences, as determined or calculated by the Servicer, from that determined or calculated by the Backup Servicer, the Backup Servicer shall notify the Servicer of such discrepancy by the third Business Day following receipt by the Backup Servicer of the related electronic file and, if by the Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such notice, the Backup Servicer and the Servicer are unable to resolve such discrepancy, the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such discrepancy.  The Backup Servicer shall provide a Monthly Backup Servicer Certificate to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer, on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding each Payment Date. The Backup Servicer, in its capacity as such, shall not be responsible for delays attributable to the Servicer’s failure to deliver information, defects in the information supplied by the Servicer or other circumstances beyond the control of the Backup Servicer.
(b)    At such time as may be requested in writing by the Administrative Agent, the Servicer shall deliver the Test Data File to the Backup Servicer, in a format acceptable to the Backup Servicer.  The Backup Servicer and the Servicer will agree upon the file layout and electronic medium to transfer such data to the Backup Servicer.  The Backup Servicer shall confirm to the Servicer and the Administrative Agent in writing that the Test Data File is in the 

73

correct format or if any changes or modifications are necessary.  The Backup Servicer shall convert the Test Data File to its internal servicing system, and confirm in writing to the Servicer and the Administrative Agent that it has received and verified the completeness of the Test Data File within 90 days of receipt of such Test Data File; provided, however, that such confirmation shall not be deemed to apply to the accuracy of the Test Data File data as provided by the  Servicer, but shall be deemed only to apply to the accuracy of the conversion of the Test Data Files to the Backup Servicer’s internal systems.  Any cost associated with the obligations of the Backup Servicer described in this subsection shall be at the expense of the Servicer, and, to the extent that the Servicer does not pay such amounts, the Backup Servicer shall be entitled to recover such amounts in priority (iii) of Section 2.06.
(c)    Other than as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and shall have no Liability for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer.
(d)    The Backup Servicer shall consult with the Servicer as may be necessary from time to time to perform or carry out the Backup Servicer’s obligations hereunder, including the obligation, if requested in writing by the Administrative Agent, to succeed to the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant hereto.
(e)    Except as provided in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer may accept and rely on all accounting, records and work of the Servicer without audit, and the Backup Servicer shall have no Liability for the acts or omissions of the Servicer.  If any error, inaccuracy or omission (collectively, “Errors”) exists in any information received from the Servicer, and such Errors should cause or materially contribute to the Backup Servicer making or continuing any Errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), the Backup Servicer shall have no Liability for such Continued Errors; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Backup Servicer against any Liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in discovering or correcting any Error or in the performance of its duties under this Agreement.  In the event the Backup Servicer becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the Servicer of such Errors or Continued Errors and, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, shall use its best efforts to reconstruct and reconcile such data as is commercially reasonable to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and prevent future Continued Errors.  The Backup Servicer shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended from the Servicer (or, to the extent not paid by the Servicer, in accordance with Section 2.06).
(f)    The Backup Servicer shall be indemnified by the Servicer and the Borrower from and against all claims, damages, losses or expenses reasonably incurred by the Backup Servicer (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of claims asserted against the Backup Servicer by third parties on any matter arising out of this Agreement to the extent the act or omission giving rise to the claim accrues before the date on which the Backup Servicer assumes the duties of Servicer hereunder, except for any claims, damages, losses or expenses arising from the Backup Servicer’s own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

74

Section 7.10.  Rights After Assumption of Duties by Successor Servicer; Liability.  At any time following the assumption of the duties of the Servicer by the Backup Servicer or a Successor Servicer pursuant to Section 7.13 as a result of the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event:

(b)    The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take or cause to be taken any and all steps in the Borrower’s name and on behalf of the Borrower necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Administrative Agent, to collect all amounts due under the Collateral, including endorsing the Borrower’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing the Receivables.
(c)    The Backup Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of its obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligations assumed by the Backup Servicer from the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.14.  Such liability is limited to only those actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Backup Servicer and caused through its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  No implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Backup Servicer and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Backup Servicer, the Backup Servicer may conclusively rely on the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed in any certificates or opinions furnished to the Backup Servicer and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement.
(d)    The Backup Servicer shall not be charged with knowledge of any Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event unless a Responsible Officer of the Backup Servicer obtains actual knowledge of such event or the Backup Servicer receives written notice of such event from the Borrower, the Servicer or the Administrative Agent.
(e)    The Backup Servicer shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it reasonably determines that the repayment of such funds or adequate written indemnity against such risks or liability is not available prior to the expenditure of such funds or the incurrence of financial liability.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Backup Servicer, so long as it is not the Successor Servicer, shall not be liable for any obligation of the Servicer contained in this Agreement, and the parties shall look only to the Servicer to perform such obligations.

75

Section 7.11.  Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.  Except as provided herein, neither the Servicer nor any of its directors or officers or employees or agents shall be under any liability to the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or any other Person for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such Person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of its willful misconduct hereunder.
Section 7.12.  Servicer Not to Resign.  The Servicer shall resign only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders or if the Servicer provides an Opinion of Counsel to the Administrative Agent to the effect that such Servicer is no longer permitted by law to act as Servicer hereunder.  No termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder shall be effective until a Successor Servicer, acceptable to the Administrative Agent has accepted its appointment as Successor Servicer hereunder and has agreed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Credit and Collection Policy.
Section 7.13.  Servicer Termination Events.  The occurrence and continuance of any one of the following events shall constitute a “Servicer Termination Event” hereunder:  
(a)    any failure by the Servicer to (i) deliver any Collections or (ii) make any payment, transfer or deposit, in each case as required by this Agreement or any other Servicer Basic Document;
(b)    any failure by the Servicer to deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Backup Servicer a Monthly Report when required that shall continue unremedied for a period of one Business Day after (A) written notice of such failure having been received by the Servicer from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Backup Servicer or (B) discovery of such failure by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer;
(c)    any failure by the Servicer duly to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement of the Servicer contained in this Agreement or any other Servicer Basic Document and such failure remains unremedied for 30 calendar days after discovery by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer or receipt of written notice of such failure from the Administrative Agent or any Lender;
(d)    any representation, warranty or certification made or deemed to be made by the Servicer under this Agreement or any other Servicer Basic Document, or any other certificate, information or report delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any other Servicer Basic Document, shall prove to have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made or delivered, and which remains unremedied for 30 calendar days after discovery by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer or receipt of written notice of such failure from the Administrative Agent or any Lender;
(e)    an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Servicer;
(f)    a Termination Event has occurred that has not been waived;

76

recent fiscal quarter, DTAC’s Tangible Net Worth is less than $100.0 million;

(i)    prior to the occurrence of a Decoupling Event, Available Cash on the last Business Day of any Collection Period is less than $15.0 million;
(j)    prior to the occurrence of a Decoupling Event, Available Liquidity on any day is less than $20.0 million;

(l)    prior to the occurrence of a Decoupling Event, the Leverage Ratio on the last day of any Collection Period exceeds 5.0:1.0.
Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as any such Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied within any applicable cure period or waived in writing by the Administrative Agent (at the direction, and with the consent of, the Required Lenders), the Administrative Agent, by written notice to the Servicer (with a copy to the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian) (each, a “Servicer Termination Notice”), may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as Servicer under this Agreement.
Section 7.14.  Appointment of Successor Servicer.
(a)    On and after the receipt by the Servicer of a Servicer Termination Notice, the Servicer shall continue to perform all servicing functions under this Agreement until the date specified in the Servicer Termination Notice or otherwise specified by the Administrative Agent in writing or, if no such date is specified in such Servicer Termination Notice or otherwise specified by the Administrative Agent, until a date mutually agreed upon by the Servicer, the Backup Servicer (if the Backup Servicer becomes the Successor Servicer) and the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, at the time described in the immediately preceding sentence, appoint the Backup Servicer as the Successor Servicer hereunder, and the Backup Servicer shall on such date assume all duties, liabilities and obligations of the Servicer hereunder from and after such date, and all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer.
(b)    In the event that the Administrative Agent does not so appoint the Backup Servicer, there is no Backup Servicer or the Backup Servicer is unable to assume such obligations on such date, the Administrative Agent shall as promptly as possible appoint a successor servicer (the “Successor Servicer”), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent.  In the event that a Successor Servicer has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Administrative Agent shall petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established financial institution having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of subprime automobile receivables as the Successor Servicer hereunder.

77

(c)    Upon the termination and removal of the Servicer, the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the rights and responsibilities of the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement, including the transfer to the Successor Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for deposit, or shall thereafter be received, with respect to a Receivable, and the related accounts, Receivable Files and records maintained by the Servicer.  In the case that the Backup Servicer or any other Successor Servicer shall not agree to perform any duties or obligations of the Servicer hereunder, such duties or obligations may be performed or delegated by the Administrative Agent.
(d)    The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights of removal and termination for cause with respect to any Successor Servicer as with respect to DTCC as the Servicer.
(e)    All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Backup Servicer and Successor Servicer in connection with the transferring of Receivables to the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, converting the Servicer’s data to the Successor Servicer’s computer system and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable transition expenses not exceeding $150,000 (the “Transition Expenses”).  In no event shall the Successor Servicer be responsible for any Transition Expenses.  If the predecessor Servicer fails to pay the Transition Expenses, the Transition Expenses shall be payable pursuant to Section 2.06.
(f)    Upon its appointment, the Successor Servicer 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 provisions hereof, and all references in this Agreement to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to the Successor Servicer; provided, however, that any Successor Servicer shall have (i) no liability with respect to any obligation which was required to be performed by the predecessor Servicer prior to the date that the successor becomes the Successor Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the predecessor Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the Servicer, (iii) no obligation to pay any Taxes required to be paid by the Servicer, (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party to this Agreement and (v) no liability or obligation with respect to any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, including DTCC.  The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer, upon becoming a successor Servicer are expressly limited to those instances of gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Backup Servicer in its role as Successor Servicer.
(g)    All authority and power granted to the Servicer under this Agreement shall automatically cease and terminate upon termination of this Agreement and shall pass to and be vested in the Borrower and 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 Receivables.

78

(h)    The Administrative Agent may, solely for purposes of establishing the fee to be paid to the Backup Servicer or any other Successor Servicer after a notice of removal of the Servicer pursuant to this Article, solicit written bids (such bids to include a proposed servicer fee and servicing transfer costs) from not less than three entities experienced in the servicing of subprime automobile receivables similar to the Receivables and that are not Affiliates of the Servicer or the Borrower and are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

(e)    At any sale under Section 10.02(c), DTCC, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor.

(f)    The Administrative Agent may direct the Servicer to direct Collections to an account other than the Collection Account.
(g)    The Administrative Agent may exercise at the Borrower’s sole expense any and all rights and remedies of the Borrower under or in connection with the Collateral.
Section 10.03.  Exercise of Remedies.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between the Borrower, the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies expressly provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties would otherwise have pursuant to law or equity.  No notice to or demand on any party in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of the other party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 10.04.  Waiver of Certain Laws.  The Borrower agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and the Borrower, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or such parcels as the Administrative Agent or such court may determine.

Each of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian severally and with respect to itself only, covenants and agrees to hold in confidence, and not disclose to any Person, the terms of this Agreement (including any fees payable in connection with this Agreement or the identity of a Lender under this Agreement), except as the Administrative Agent or any such Lender may have consented to in writing prior to any proposed disclosure and except it may disclose such information (i) to its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, accountants, subservicers, auditors, advisors or representatives, (ii) to the extent such information has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through the Borrower, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer or the Collateral Custodian, (iii) to Wells Fargo Bank or its Affiliates or (iv) to the extent it should be (a) required by Applicable Law (including filing a copy of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents (other than the Fee Letter and excluding from any such copy the identity of each Lender)) as exhibits to filings required to be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding or (b) requested by any Governmental Authority to disclose such information; provided, that, in the case of clause (iv)(a), the Borrower, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian, as applicable, will use all reasonable efforts to maintain confidentiality and will (unless otherwise prohibited by law) notify the Administrative Agent or Lender of its intention to make any such disclosure prior to making such disclosure.  
Section 14.02.  Covenants of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
(a)    Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender covenants and agrees that it will not disclose any of the Confidential Information now or hereafter received or obtained by it without the Borrower’s prior written consent; provided, however, that it may disclose any such Confidential Information to those of its employees or Affiliates directly involved in the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents or to the Rating Agencies.
(b)    Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender may also disclose any such Confidential Information to its Advisors who need to know such information for the purpose of assisting it in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents.  Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its Affiliates and Advisors, and it agrees that its Affiliates and Advisors will be advised by it of the confidential nature of such information and that it shall cause its Affiliates to be bound by this Agreement.
(c)    None of the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any of their respective Affiliates, employees, agents or Advisors, without the prior written consent of the Borrower, will disclose to any person the fact that Confidential Information has been provided to it or them, that discussions or negotiations have taken place with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents, or the existence, terms, conditions or other facts of the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents, including the status thereof.

103

(d)    Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender acknowledges and agrees that any Confidential Information provided to it, in whatever form, is the sole property of the Borrower and the Servicer.  Neither such Person nor its Affiliates or Advisors shall use any of the Confidential Information now or hereafter received or obtained from or through the Borrower, the Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates for any purpose other than for purposes of engaging in, or as otherwise contemplated by, the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender agree that if the Borrower and/or the Servicer should request that it destroy or return the Confidential Information, it shall return or destroy such Confidential Information as so directed; provided that it shall be permitted to retain only that portion of the Confidential Information, in accordance with the confidentiality obligations specified in this Agreement, that is necessary for purposes of documenting any due diligence review performed by it in connection with the Transaction.
(e)    Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender acknowledges that all Confidential Information is considered to be proprietary and of competitive value, and in many instances trade secrets.  Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that because of the unique nature of the Confidential Information any breach of this Agreement would cause the Borrower, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates irreparable harm and money damages and other remedies available at law in the event of a breach would not be adequate to compensate the Borrower, the Servicer and their Affiliates for any such breach.  Accordingly, each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach.  Such relief shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other remedies available to the Borrower, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates whether at law or in equity.
(f)    If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any of their respective Affiliates or Advisors are legally compelled (whether by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigation, demand or similar process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information (including the fact that discussions or negotiations took place with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents), the related entity shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Servicer in writing (unless it has been advised by an Opinion of Counsel that such notification is prohibited by law or regulation) of such requirement so that the Borrower and/or the Servicer, at their sole cost and expense, may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions hereof.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to use its reasonable efforts, upon the written request of the Borrower or the Servicer, to obtain or assist the Borrower or the Servicer in obtaining any such protective order.  Failing the reasonably timely entry of a protective order or the reasonably timely receipt of a waiver hereunder, it may disclose, without liability hereunder, that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information that it have been advised by an Opinion of Counsel that it is legally compelled to disclose; provided that it agrees to use reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information by the person or persons to whom it was disclosed.

(i)    Assignment.  No Receivable has been originated in, or is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction under which the sale, transfer, assignment, setting over, conveyance or pledge of such Receivable would be unlawful, void, or voidable.  The Originator has not entered into any agreement with any Obligor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of the related Receivable.
(j)    Good Title.  It is the intention of the Originator that the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance herein contemplated constitute an absolute sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Receivables and that the Receivables not be part of the Originator’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Originator under any bankruptcy law.

All filings (including, without limitation, UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Borrower a first priority, validly perfected ownership interest in the Receivables, and to give the Administrative Agent a first priority perfected security interest therein, will be made on the Closing Date.
(l)    Priority.  The Receivable is not pledged, assigned, sold, subject to a security interest, or otherwise conveyed other than pursuant to the Basic Documents.  The Originator has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Originator or DTAC that include a description of collateral covering any Receivable other than any financing statement relating to security interests granted under the Basic Documents or that have been or, prior to the assignment of such Receivable hereunder, will be terminated, amended or released.  The Purchase Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest in the favor of the Borrower which security interest is prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and is enforceable as such against all other creditors of and purchasers and assignees from DTAC.  The Loan and Security Agreement creates a valid and continuing perfected security interest in the favor of the Administrative Agent which security interest is prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and is enforceable as such against all other creditors and purchasers and assignees from the Borrower.
(m)    Characterization of Receivables.  Each Receivable constitutes “tangible chattel paper”, as defined in the UCC.

SA-4
 

(n)    One Original.  There is only one executed original copy of the Contract (in each case within the meaning of the UCC) related to each Receivable.  The Contract has not been stamped or otherwise marked to show any interest of any other Person or any such stamp or other mark has been cancelled.
(o)    No Defenses.  Neither DTAC nor the Borrower has any knowledge either of any facts which would give rise to any right of rescission, offset, claim, counterclaim or defense, or of the same being asserted or threatened, with respect to any Receivable.

(i)    the fair value of the property owned by the Borrower is greater than the amount of the Borrower’s liabilities (including disputed, contingent and unliquidated liabilities) as such value is established and liabilities evaluated for purposes of Section 101(32) of the Bankruptcy Code;

D-1
 

transfer shall not have been made with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any Person and (C) the assets of the Borrower shall not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted.

FORM OF MONTHLY REPORT
[Electronic version on file with the Administrative Agent]

E-1DTA-2012.12.31-EX10.3.3

Exhibit 10.3.3

SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
In order to settle as fully as possible all known all unknown claims I might have against DriveTime Automotive Group and all related parties (including DT Credit Corporation, DriveTime Car Sales, Inc., GO Financial and DT Acceptance Corporation) (together, “Company”), Company and myself agree as follows:
(a)Special Payments and Benefits:  I have forty five days from November 30, 2012, to review and sign this agreement to receive severance. I have seven days after signing to cancel this agreement. For more information on signing, please see the last page of this agreement.). The Company will pay me the amount of my current regular pay through June 30, 2013, an amount to which I am not otherwise entitled.  The Company will pay the severance in a lump sum covering the period from the Termination Date to June 30, 2013, such payment to be made after January 1, 2013 but no later than the end of the first full week in January of 2013.  In addition, bonuses and other compensation for which I am not otherwise eligible, including the 2012 BLM bonus (to be paid no later than the date such bonus is paid to all other Company employees), Long Term Incentive Plan, payments for 2009, 2010 and 2011, and the distribution of the final amounts under the Executive Bonus Agreement, will be paid to me in a lump sum (or direction given to the trustee under the Executive Bonus Agreement) at or before the later of December 14, 2012 or seven days after Company’s receipt of a signed Agreement.  I will not be eligible for any additional 2012 or other bonuses. Amounts paid under this Section (a) will not be taken into account in determining my rights or benefits under any other program.  The Company will withhold taxes and report amounts to tax authorities as it determines it is required to do.
(b)Release: I release (i.e., give up) all known and unknown claims that I presently have against Company and all of their current and former patents, subsidiaries, related companies, partnerships, joint ventures, or other affiliates, and, with respect to each of them, their predecessors and successors; and, with respect to each such entity, all of its past, present, and future employees, officers, directors, stockholders, owners, representatives, assigns, attorneys, agents, insurers, employee benefit programs (and the trustees, administrators, fiduciaries, and insurers of such programs), and any other persons acting by, through, under or in concert with any of the persons or entities listed in this section, and their successors (Released Parties), except claims that the law does not permit me to waive by signing this Settlement Agreement. For example, I am releasing all common law contract, tort, or other claims I might have, as well as all claims I might have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the WARN Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Sections 1981 and 1983 of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), and similar applicable state or local laws, such as the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California Labor Code Section 200 et seq., and any applicable California Industrial Welfare Commission Order. If I am a California employee, I expressly waive the protection of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which states that:

LEGAL_US_E # 77636924.1

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.
(c)Compensation and Benefit Plans: Effective upon the Termination Date (as defined herein), I have ceased to be eligible to participate under any stock option, bonus, incentive compensation, commission, medical, dental, life insurance, retirement, and other compensation or benefit plans of the Company or any affiliate, and have no rights under any of those plans, except as follows:
(i)Group Insurance: I will have my legally-mandated rights, if any, to COBRA continuation coverage as to any Company-provided medical, dental, or vision plan in which I participate and if I timely elect COBRA continuation coverage.
(ii)Qualified Plan Retirement Benefits: I will retain my vested benefits under all qualified retirement plans of the Company (for example, 401k), and all rights associated with such benefits, as determined under the official terms of those plans.
Payments made under this Settlement Agreement will not be included in my compensation for purposes of calculating the benefits to which I am entitled under any employee benefit program, notwithstanding anything in it to the contrary.
(d)Representations and Promised: I acknowledge and agree that:
(i)This Settlement Agreement is the entire agreement relating to my service with the Company and any claims or future rights that I might have with respect to the Company and the Released Parties. This Settlement Agreement only may be amended by a written agreement that the Company and I sign. This Settlement Agreement is a legally admissible, enforceable agreement governed by Federal law and the laws of the state where I have most recently worked with the Company.
(ii)When I decided to sign this Settlement Agreement, I was not relying on any representations that arc not in this Settlement Agreement.
(iii)I agree not to criticize, denigrate, or otherwise disparage the Company or any other Released Party, or any their products, processes, experiments, policies, practices, standards of business conduct, or areas or techniques of research. I also agree not to take any actions which could harm or damage the Company, including but not limited to soliciting, either directly or indirectly, employees of Company (for a twelve month period following the date of this Settlement Agreement), or doing anything affecting the Company’s website(s), computer systems, technology, media, marketing or similar areas. However, nothing in this subsection shall prohibit me from complying with any lawful subpoena or court order or taking any other actions affirmatively required by law.

LEGAL_US_E # 77636924.1

(iv)I agree to maintain the confidentiality of all confidential information regarding the Company and any other Released Party (including confidential information of their customers) and I promise not to disclose any such information to any person at any time for any purpose; provided, however, that nothing shall preclude disclosure (a) as necessary to obtain legal or financial advice; (b) pursuant to court order; or (c) as otherwise permitted by law.
(v)I understand that the Company in the future may improve employee benefits or pay. I understand that my job may be refilled.
(vi)I have not been told that the Company or any Released Party will employ me in the future.
(vii)I have not suffered any job-related wrongs or injuries, such as any type of discrimination, for which I might still be entitled to compensation or relief in the future. I have properly reported all hours that I have worked and I have been paid all wages, overtime, commissions, compensation, benefits, and other amounts that the Company or any Released Party should have paid me in the past.
(viii)This Settlement Agreement is not an admission of wrongdoing by the Company or any other Released Party.
(ix)I am intentionally releasing claims that I do not know that I might have and that, with hindsight, I might regret having released. I have not assigned or given away any of the claims I am releasing.
(x)I have returned to the Company all files, memoranda, documents, records, copies of the foregoing, Company- or Released Party-provided credit cards, keys, building passes, security passes, access or identification cards, uniforms, and any other property of the Company or any Released Party that was in my possession or control, except for my phone and IP AD which I am allowed to retain. I have cleared all expense accounts, repaid everything I owe to the Company or any Released Party, paid all amounts I owe on Company-provided credit cards or accounts (such as cell phone accounts), and canceled or personally assumed any such credit cards or accounts, or I agree that the Company may deduct any such amounts from my severance payment.
(xi)I have not disclosed and will never disclose the underlying facts that led up to the settlement evidenced by this Settlement Agreement, or the terms, amount, or existence of that settlement or this Settlement Agreement, to anyone other than a member of my immediate family or my attorney or other professional advisor and, even as to such a person, only if the person agrees to honor this confidentiality requirement. Such a person’s violation of this confidentiality requirement shall be treated as a violation by me. This subsection does not prohibit disclosures to the extent necessary legally to enforce this Settlement Agreement or to the extent prohibited by law, nor does it prohibit disclosures to the extent otherwise legally required (but only if I notify the Company of a disclosure obligation or request within one day after I learn of it and permit the Company 

LEGAL_US_E # 77636924.1

to take all steps it deems to be appropriate to prevent or limit the required disclosure).
(xii)If the Company or I successfully assert that any provision in this Settlement Agreement is void, the rest of the Settlement Agreement shall remain valid and enforceable unless the other party to this Settlement Agreement elects to cancel it. If this Settlement Agreement is cancelled, I will repay the special payment and benefits I received for signing it.
(xiii)I agree to cause the withdrawal or dismissal with prejudice of any pending lawsuit, complaint, charge, action, compliance review, investigation, or proceeding asserting any claim that I have released five days after this Settlement Agreement becomes effective, unless prohibited by law. Until that withdrawal or dismissal is accepted or ordered, I will not be entitled to receive any special payments or benefits under this Settlement Agreement.
(xiv)If I initially did not think any representation I am making in this Settlement Agreement was true or if I initially was uncomfortable making it, I resolved all my doubts and concerns before signing this Settlement Agreement. I have carefully read this Settlement Agreement, I fully understand what it means, I am entering into it knowingly and voluntarily, and all my representations in it are true. The Company would not have given me the special payments or benefits I am getting in exchange for this Settlement Agreement but for my representations and promises 1 am making by signing it.
(xv)If Company has advanced any funds to me or I have any outstanding amounts (other than a Company vehicle loan) due and owing to Company (including missing uniforms or amounts under an Amex card payable by me under Company policies), the benefits otherwise payable under this Agreement will be reduced by such amount.
(e)Employment Termination: The last day of my Company employment will be November 30, 2012 (Termination Date). My last day at work will be at my discretion but no later than the Termination Date. I waive future coverage and benefits under all Company disability programs, but this Settlement Agreement does not affect my COBRA eligibility for other Company medical, dental, life insurance, retirement, and benefit plans. Whether I sign this Settlement Agreement or not, I understand that my rights and continued participation in those plans will be governed by their terms, and that I generally will become ineligible for them shortly after my Termination Date, after which I may be able to purchase continued coverage under certain of such plans.
Existing Obligations Continue: I agree to remain bound by any Company or Company affiliate agreement or policy relating to confidential information, invention, non-solicitation, or similar matters to which I am now subject, if any.
