ARTICLE II

SALES

     Section 2.1 Sales.

     (a) By execution of this Agreement, each Seller does hereby transfer,
assign, set over and otherwise convey to Buyer, without recourse except as
provided herein, all its right, title and interest in, to and under, the
following (the “Transferred Assets”): (i) the Receivables existing at the
opening of business on the Closing Date, and thereafter created from time to
time until the Agreement Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller
Termination Date relating to such Seller), together with the Collateral
Security and Collections with respect thereto and related Recoveries, in each
case together with all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or
receivable with respect thereto and Insurance Proceeds relating thereto, (ii)
without limiting the generality of the foregoing or the following, all of such
Seller’s rights to receive payments from any Dealer in respect of such
Receivables and (iii) all proceeds of all of the foregoing. The foregoing does
not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by
Buyer of any obligation of any Seller or any other Person in connection with
the Accounts or the Transferred Receivables or under any agreement or
instrument relating thereto, including any obligation under the Financing
Agreements, the Floorplan Agreements or any Participation Agreement or any
obligation to any Dealer or any Manufacturer. The foregoing conveyance shall
be effective (x) on the Closing Date, as to all Transferred Assets then
existing (it being understood and agreed that, in the case of this clause (x),
the Collections transferred to Buyer shall include all Collections since July
31, 2004), and (y) on each Purchase Date, as to all Transferred Assets arising
since the prior Purchase Date.

     (b) Each Seller agrees, at its own expense, (i) on or prior to (x) the
Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, (y) the applicable Addition
Date, in the case of Additional

Receivables Sale Agreement

12

 

Accounts, and (z) the applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed
Accounts, to indicate, or cause to be indicated, in the appropriate computer
files that Receivables created (or reassigned, if applicable, in the case of
Removed Accounts) in connection with the Accounts have been conveyed to Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement (or conveyed to a Seller or its designee, if
applicable, in accordance with Section 2.7, in the case of Removed Accounts) by
including, or causing to be included, in such computer files a code so
identifying each such Account (or, in the case of Removed Accounts, deleting,
or causing to be deleted, such code thereafter) and (ii) on or prior to the
date referred to in clauses (i)(x), (y) or (z), as applicable, to deliver to
Buyer an Account Schedule. The initial such Account Schedule, as supplemented
from time to time to reflect Additional Accounts and Removed Accounts, shall be
marked as Schedule 1 to this Agreement and is hereby incorporated into and made
a part of this Agreement. Once the code referenced in clause (i) of this
paragraph has been included with respect to any Account, each Seller further
agrees not to permit such code to be altered during the remaining term of this
Agreement unless and until (x) such Account becomes a Removed Account, or (y)
such Seller shall have delivered to Buyer at least thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice of its intention to do so and has taken such action as is
necessary or advisable to cause the interest of Buyer in the Transferred
Receivables to continue to be perfected with the priority required by this
Agreement.

     Section 2.2 Acceptance by Buyer.

     (a) Buyer hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest to the property, now existing and hereafter created, conveyed to Buyer
pursuant to Section 2.1. Buyer shall maintain a copy of Schedule 1, as
delivered to it from time to time.

     (b) Buyer hereby agrees not to disclose to any Person any account numbers
or other information contained in the Account Schedule marked as Schedule 1 and
delivered to Buyer, from time to time, except (i) to Master Servicer, any
Sub-Servicer or as required by a Requirement of Law applicable to Buyer, (ii)
in connection with the performance of Buyer’s duties hereunder, (iii) to the
indenture trustee under the Indenture in connection with its duties or (iv) to
bona fide creditors or potential creditors of Master Servicer or a Seller for
the limited purpose of enabling any such creditor to identify Transferred
Receivables or Accounts subject to this Agreement. Buyer agrees to take such
measures as shall be reasonably requested by a Seller to protect and maintain
the security and confidentiality of such information and, in connection
therewith, shall allow each Seller or its duly authorized representatives to
inspect Buyer’s security and confidentiality arrangements from time to time
during normal business hours upon prior written notice. Buyer shall promptly
notify each Seller of any request received by Buyer to disclose information of
the type described in this Section 2.2(b), which notice shall in any event be
provided no later than five (5) Business Days prior to disclosure of any such
information unless Buyer is compelled pursuant to a Requirement of Law to
disclose such information prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days
after the giving of such notice.

     Section 2.3 Characterization of Transfers. The parties hereto intend that
each transfer of the Transferred Assets shall constitute a sale by each Seller
to Buyer and not a loan by Buyer to a Seller secured by the Transferred Assets.
If, contrary to the intent of the parties hereto, a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that any transaction provided for herein constitutes a
loan and not a sale of the Transferred Assets, then this Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law and each Seller shall be
deemed to have granted, and
each Seller

Receivables Sale Agreement

13

 

hereby grants, to Buyer a security interest in and to all of
such Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred
Assets.

     Section 2.4 Purchase Price.

     (a) The purchase price for the Transferred Receivables and the other
Transferred Assets related thereto shall equal the fair market value of such
Transferred Receivables and other Transferred Assets as agreed upon by Buyer
and the applicable Seller prior to such sale (such amount for any Transferred
Receivables and other Transferred Assets, the “Purchase Price”).

     (b) The Purchase Price for any Transferred Assets sold by a Seller shall
be payable in full in cash on each Purchase Date or less frequently if so
agreed between Buyer and Seller; provided, however, that Buyer may, with
respect to any sale, offset against such Purchase Price any amounts owed by the
applicable Seller to Buyer hereunder and which remain unpaid. On each such
Purchase Date or other date set by the parties for payment, Buyer shall, upon
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make
available to the applicable Seller the Purchase Price for the applicable
Transferred Assets in same day funds.

     Section 2.5 Adjustments. If on any day the outstanding amount of any
Principal Receivable is reduced because of a rebate, refund, unauthorized
charge or billing error by a Seller to a Dealer, or because such Principal
Receivable was created in respect of merchandise which was refused or returned
by a Dealer, or if the outstanding amount of any Principal Receivable is
otherwise reduced by a Seller other than on account of Collections thereof or
such amount being charged-off as uncollectible, then the applicable Seller
shall compensate Buyer for such reduction in the outstanding amount of such
Principal Receivable as provided below. Any adjustment required pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall be made not later than the second Business Day after
the Date of Processing for the event giving rise to such adjustment or less
frequently if so agreed between Buyer and the applicable Seller. The amount of
each such reduction shall be deducted from the amount of the Purchase Price
payable by Buyer to such Seller on the Purchase Date that coincides with or
next follows the date of the adjustment, and such Seller shall pay Buyer on
that Purchase Date any excess of the aggregate amount of such reductions over
the aggregate Purchase Price otherwise payable to such Seller on that Purchase
Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Purchase Date the aggregate amount
of such reductions shall be paid gross by the applicable Seller to Buyer,
without netting against the Purchase Price, to the extent that Buyer informs
such Seller that Buyer requires funds to make payments on account of such
reductions under any of the Related Documents.

     Section 2.6 Addition of Accounts.

     (a) Additional Accounts. From time to time, a Seller may designate
additional Eligible Accounts (“Additional Accounts”) to be included as
Accounts.

     (b) Designated Participation Interests. In lieu of, or in addition to,
designating Additional Accounts as contemplated by subsection (a) above, a
Seller may convey to Buyer participations or trust certificates representing
undivided or beneficial interests in a pool of assets primarily consisting of
receivables arising under dealer floorplan loan credit arrangements owned by
such Seller or any of its Affiliates and collections thereon (“Designated
Participation

Receivables Sale Agreement

14

 

Interests”). Each Seller and Buyer will enter into a supplement to this
Agreement relating to the conveyance of any Designated Participation Interest.

     (c) Conditions for Additions of Additional Accounts. Any sale of
Receivables from Additional Accounts shall occur only upon satisfaction of the
following conditions (to the extent provided below):

          (i) on or before the Addition Date, the applicable Seller shall have
delivered to Buyer, (x) a written assignment in substantially the form of
Exhibit A (the “Assignment”), and such Seller shall indicate in its
computer files that the Receivables created in connection with the
Additional Accounts have been transferred to Buyer, and (y) an Account
Schedule reflecting the addition of such Additional Accounts (which
Account Schedule shall be attached as a schedule to such Assignment); and

          (ii) such Seller shall deliver an Opinion of Counsel with respect to
the Receivables in the Additional Accounts to Buyer (in such numbers and
with such additional addressees as Buyer may reasonably request)
substantially in the form of Exhibit C (with appropriate modifications).

     Section 2.7 Removal of Accounts.

     (a) From time to time, but not more frequently than once during each
Monthly Period for any Dealer, a Seller may request (which request Buyer may
deny): (i) the removal of one or more Accounts from the Account Schedule, and
(ii) if any such Account was not an Eligible Account at the time such Account
was originally added to the Account Schedule, the reassignment to such Seller
or its designee of all Buyer’s right, title and interest in, to and under (A)
the Transferred Receivables then existing and thereafter created in such
Account, (B) the Collateral Security, Collections and Recoveries with respect
thereto, and (C) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or
receivable with respect thereto and Insurance Proceeds relating thereto. Any
such removal and reassignment shall be subject to the satisfaction of the
following conditions:

          (i) on or before the tenth Business Day immediately preceding the
Removal Date (the “Removal Notice Date”), the applicable Seller shall
have given Buyer written notice of such request and specifying the date
for removal of the proposed Removed Accounts (the “Removal Date”);

          (ii) Buyer shall have delivered its written consent for such removal
to such Seller;

          (iii) on or prior to the Removal Date, such Seller shall have
delivered to Buyer a schedule listing the proposed Removed Accounts and a
schedule listing the Accounts that are not proposed to be Removed
Accounts (which schedules shall be attached as schedules to such
Reassignment); and

          (iv) such Seller shall have delivered to Buyer an Officer’s
Certificate, dated as of the Removal Date, to the effect that (i) no
selection procedure believed by such Seller to be materially adverse to
the interest of Buyer or any of its creditors has been used in

 
Receivables Sale Agreement

15

 

removing Removed Accounts; and (ii) Accounts (or administratively
convenient groups of Accounts) were chosen for removal on a random basis
or another basis not involving adverse selection that such Seller
believes is consistent with achieving derecognition of the Transferred
Receivables under GAAP.

     Upon satisfaction of the above conditions (and subject to receipt by Buyer
of the reassignment price agreed upon between Buyer and the applicable Seller):
(i) Buyer shall execute and deliver to the applicable Seller or its designee a
written reassignment in substantially the form of Exhibit B (the
“Reassignment”); (ii) the Account Schedule shall be deemed to have been amended
to remove such Removed Accounts; and (iii) if such Removed Accounts were not
Eligible Accounts at the time such Accounts were originally designated as
Accounts, Buyer shall, without further action, be deemed to transfer, assign,
set over and otherwise convey to Seller or its designee, effective as of the
Removal Date, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right,
title and interest of Buyer in and to the Transferred Receivables arising in
such Removed Accounts, the Collateral Security and Collections and Recoveries
with respect thereto, and all monies due or to become due and all amounts
received or receivable with respect thereto and Insurance Proceeds relating
thereto and all proceeds of the foregoing). In addition, Buyer shall execute
such other documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such
other actions as shall reasonably be requested by Seller to effect the
conveyance of Transferred Receivables pursuant to clause (iii) of the previous
sentence.

     Section 2.8 Additional Sellers. A Seller may designate additional or
substitute Persons to be included as Sellers by an amendment to this Agreement
upon Buyer’s consent (without the consent of any other party hereto), which
consent Buyer covenants to grant if Buyer is permitted to consent to such
designation under the Second Tier Agreement.

     Section 2.9 Additional Originators. A Seller may designate additional
Persons as Originators by an amendment to this Agreement upon Buyer’s consent
(without the consent of any other party hereto), which consent Buyer covenants

Tier Agreement.

organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization; (B) is duly qualified to conduct business
and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where its ownership or

of such Seller, and (B) do not violate any provision of any law or
regulation of any Governmental Authority, or contractual or restrictions
binding on such Seller, except where such violations, individually or in

Adverse Effect.

          (iv) Enforceability. On or prior to the Closing Date, each of the
Related Documents to which a Seller is a party shall have been duly

bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity.

          (v) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or, to the best

such Seller, before any Governmental Authority (i) asserting the
invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of
any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) seeking any
determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of such Seller,
would materially and adversely affect the performance by such Seller of
its obligations under this Agreement or (iv) seeking any determination or
ruling that would materially and adversely affect the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement.

Receivables Sale Agreement

19

 

          (vi) Accuracy of Certain Information. All written factual
information heretofore furnished by such Seller to Buyer with respect to
the Transferred Receivables for the purposes of, or in connection with,
this Agreement was true and correct in all material respects on the date
as of which such information was stated or certified.

          (vii) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds received by such Seller under
this Agreement will be used by it for any purpose that violates
Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board.

          (viii) Transferred Receivables. With respect to each Transferred
Receivable relating to such Seller, such Seller represents and warrants
that as of the Transfer Date for such Transferred Receivable:

               (A) such Transferred Receivable satisfies the criteria for an
Eligible Receivable as of such Transfer Date;

               (B) all authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of or
registrations or declarations with any Governmental Authority
required to be obtained, effected or given by such Seller in
connection with the conveyance by such Seller of such Transferred
Receivable to Buyer have been duly obtained, effected or given and
are in full force and effect; and

               (C) the additional representations and warranties set forth in
Schedule 6.1(a)(viii) are true and correct.

     The representations and warranties described in this Section 6.1(a) shall
survive the sale of the Transferred Assets to Buyer, any subsequent assignment
or sale of the Transferred Assets by Buyer, and the termination of this
Agreement and the other Related Documents and shall continue until the payment
in full of all Transferred Assets.

     (b) Upon discovery by a Seller or Buyer of a breach of any of the
representations and warranties by such Seller set forth in this Section 6.1,
the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the
other. Each Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer in attempting to cure any
such breach.

     (c) If any representation or warranty of a Seller contained in Section
6.1(a)(viii) is not true and correct in any material respect as of the date
specified therein with respect to any Transferred Receivable or any Account and
as a result of such breach Buyer’s interest in such Transferred Receivable or
Account is materially and adversely affected, including if Buyer’s rights in,
to or under such Transferred Receivables or the proceeds of such Transferred
Receivables are impaired or such proceeds are not available for any reason to
Buyer free and clear of any Lien other than Permitted Encumbrances, unless
cured within sixty (60) days (or such longer period, not in excess of one
hundred twenty (120) days, as may be agreed to by Buyer) after the earlier to
occur of the discovery thereof by such Seller or receipt by such Seller of
notice thereof given by Buyer, then such Transferred Receivable shall be
designated an “Ineligible Receivable;” provided, that such Transferred
Receivables will not be deemed to be Ineligible Receivables but will be deemed
Eligible Receivables if, on any day prior to the end of such sixty (60) day or
longer period, (i) the relevant representation and warranty shall be true and

Receivables Sale Agreement

correct in all material respects as if made on such day and (ii) such
Seller shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate describing the nature of
such breach and the manner in which the relevant representation and warranty
became true and correct.

     (d) On the first Purchase Date that coincides with or falls after the date
on which any Transferred Receivable is designated as an Ineligible Receivable,
the applicable Seller shall repurchase such Ineligible Receivable from Buyer as
provided below. The repurchase price for the Ineligible Receivables in any
Account shall equal the Purchase Price paid for such Ineligible Receivables,
less any Principal Collections received on that Receivable from the Closing
Date or relevant Transfer Date, as applicable. On any Purchase Date the
aggregate amount of such repurchase prices then payable may be netted against
the Purchase Price then payable, unless Buyer informs such Seller that Buyer
requires funds to make payments on account of the related Ineligible
Receivables under any of the Related Documents, in which case such amounts
shall be paid gross.

     (e) If any representation or warranty of a Seller contained in Section
6.1(a)(i), 6.1(a)(ii), 6.1(a)(iii) or 6.1(a)(iv) of this Agreement is not true
and correct in any material respect and such breach has a material adverse
effect on the Transferred Receivables transferred to Buyer by such Seller or
the availability of the proceeds thereof to Buyer, such Seller shall be
obligated to accept a reassignment of such Transferred Receivables, if such
breach and any material adverse effect caused by such breach is not cured
within sixty (60) days (or within such longer period, not in excess of one
hundred fifty (150) days, as may be agreed to by Buyer), after the earlier to
occur of the discovery thereof by such Seller or receipt by such Seller of
notice thereof given by Buyer, on the terms set forth below; provided, that
such Transferred Receivables will not be reassigned to such Seller if, on any
day prior to the end of such sixty (60) day or longer period (i) the relevant
representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects
as if made on such day and (ii) such Seller shall have delivered an Officer’s
Certificate describing the nature of such breach and the manner in which the
relevant representation and warranty became true and correct. In connection
with a reassignment pursuant to the preceding sentence, such Seller shall pay
to Buyer in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on the first Payment Date following the Monthly Period in which such
reassignment obligation arises, in payment for such reassignment, an amount
equal to the Aggregate Reassignment Amount. The payment of such deposit amount
in immediately available funds shall otherwise be considered payment in full of
all of such Transferred Receivables.

     (f) Upon the payment, if any, required to be made to Buyer as provided in
Section 6.1(d) or 6.1(e), Buyer shall automatically and without further action
be deemed to transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the applicable
Seller or its designee, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the
right, title and interest of Buyer in and to the applicable Transferred
Receivables, all moneys due or to become due and all amounts received with
respect thereto and all proceeds thereof. Buyer shall execute such documents
and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall
reasonably be requested by such Seller to effect the conveyance of such
Transferred Receivables pursuant to this Section.

Receivables Sale Agreement

21

 

     Section 6.2 Affirmative Covenants of Seller. Each Seller severally
covenants and agrees that, unless otherwise consented to by Buyer, from and
after the Closing Date (or the relevant Transfer Date, as applicable) and until
the date after the Agreement Termination Date or, if applicable, the Seller
Termination Date relating to such Seller, when the Outstanding Balance of all
Transferred Receivables relating to such Seller have been reduced to zero:

     (a) Account Allocations. If such Seller is unable for any reason to
transfer Transferred Receivables to Buyer in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement (including by reason of the application of the provisions of
Section 5.1 or an order by any Governmental Authority that such Seller not
transfer any additional Receivables to Buyer) then, in any such event, such
Seller agrees to allocate and pay to Buyer or Master Servicer on its behalf,
after the date of such inability, all Collections with respect to Transferred
Receivables previously sold by such Seller to Buyer.

     (b) Notice of Material Event. Each Seller shall promptly inform Buyer in
writing of the occurrence of any of the following with respect to such Seller,
in each case setting forth the details thereof and what action, if any, such
Seller proposes to take with respect thereto:

          (i) any Litigation commenced or threatened against such Seller or
with respect to or in connection with all or any substantial portion of
the Transferred Assets or developments in such Litigation, in each case,
that such Seller believes has a reasonable risk of being determined
adversely and having a Material Adverse Effect;

          (ii) the commencement of a proceeding against such Seller seeking a
decree or order in respect of Seller (A) under any Debtor Relief Laws,
(B) appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or
sequestrator (or similar official) for such Seller or for any substantial
part of such Seller’s assets, or (C) ordering the winding-up or
liquidation of the affairs of such Seller; or

          (iii) such Seller’s failure to comply with any of its obligations
under this Agreement.

     (c) Notice of Liens. Each Seller shall notify Buyer promptly after
becoming aware of any Lien on any Transferred Asset other than Permitted
Encumbrances.

     (d) Information for Reports. Each Seller shall promptly deliver any
material written information, documents, records or reports with respect to the
Transferred Receivables that Buyer shall reasonably request.

     (e) Deposit of Collections. Each Seller shall transfer to Buyer or Master
Servicer on its behalf, promptly, and in any event no later than the Business
Day after receipt thereof, all Collections it may receive in respect of
Transferred Assets.

     (f) Financing Agreements and Policies. Each Seller shall comply with and
perform its obligations under the Financing Agreements relating to the Accounts
and the Credit and Collection Policies except insofar as any failure to comply
or perform would not materially and adversely affect the rights of Buyer.

Receivables Sale Agreement

22

 

     Section 6.3 Negative Covenants of Seller. Each Seller severally covenants
and agrees that, without the prior written consent of Buyer, from and after the
Closing Date (or the relevant Transfer Date, as applicable) and until the date
after the Agreement Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller Termination
Date relating to such Seller) when the Outstanding Balances of all Transferred
Receivables transferred hereunder by such Seller prior to such Agreement
Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller Termination Date relating to
such Seller) have been reduced to zero:

     (a) Liens. Each Seller shall not create, incur, assume or permit to exist
any Lien, other than Permitted Encumbrances, on or with respect to the
Transferred Assets.

     (b) Amendments to Financing Agreements and Credit and Collection Policies.
Such Seller shall not amend the Financing Agreements; provided, that this
sentence shall not prevent a Seller from assigning its rights in a Financing
Agreement to another Seller. Such Seller shall not amend its Credit and
Collection Policies if such amendment would be adverse in any material respect
to Buyer.

     (c) UCC Matters. Such Seller shall not change its state of organization
or formation or its name such that any financing statement filed to perfect
Buyer’s interests under this Agreement would become seriously misleading,
unless such Seller shall have given Buyer not less than thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice of such change.

     (d) No Proceedings. From and after the Closing Date and until the date
one year plus one day following the date on which all amounts due with respect
to securities rated by a rating agency that were issued by any entity holding
Transferred Assets or an interest therein have been paid in full in cash, such
Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, institute or cause to be instituted
against Buyer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws;
provided, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit such Seller’s right to
pursue any other creditor rights or remedies that such Seller may have under
any applicable law.

     (e) Sale Characterization. For accounting purposes, such Seller shall not
account for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any manner other
than, with respect to the sale of each Transferred Receivable, as a true sale
and absolute assignment of its full right, title and ownership interest in the
related Transferred Assets to Buyer. Such Seller shall also maintain its
records and books of account in a manner which clearly reflects each such sale
of the Transferred Receivables to Buyer.

     Section 7.2 No Waiver; Remedies.

     (a) The failure of any party hereto, at any time or times, to require
strict performance by any other party hereto of any provision of this Agreement
shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of such party thereafter to
demand strict compliance and performance with this Agreement. Any suspension
or waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect
any other breach or default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and
whether of the same or a different type. None of the undertakings, agreements,
warranties, covenants and representations of any party contained in this
Agreement, and no breach or default by any party under this Agreement, shall be
deemed to have been suspended or waived or amended by any other party hereto
unless such waiver or suspension or amendment is by an instrument in writing
signed by an officer of or other duly authorized signatory of such party and,
in the case of a suspension or waiver, directed to the defaulting party
specifying such suspension or waiver.

     (b) Each party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be
cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies that such party
may have under any other agreement, including the other Related Documents, by
operation of law or otherwise.

     Section 7.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of each Seller and Buyer and their respective
successors and permitted assigns, except as otherwise provided herein. Except
as provided below and in Sections 2.8 or 4.1 of this Agreement, a Seller may
not assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits,
obligations or duties hereunder without having obtained the prior express
written consent of Buyer and having met the S&P Condition. Any such purported
assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by such Seller without
the prior express written consent of Buyer shall be void. Each Seller
acknowledges that under the Second Tier Agreement, Buyer will assign its rights
granted hereunder to the Issuer, and upon such assignment the Issuer shall
have, to the extent of such assignment, all rights of Buyer hereunder and such
transferee may in turn transfer such rights. The terms and provisions of this
Agreement are for the purpose of
defining the relative rights and obligations of each Seller and Buyer with
respect to the

Receivables Sale Agreement

25

 

transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a
third-party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 7.4 Termination. This Agreement shall create and constitute the
continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and
shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of the Issuer (such
date, the “Agreement Termination Date”). A Seller may cease to be a party to
this Agreement on a date selected by such Seller upon prior notice thereof to
Buyer and to S&P (such date, with respect to such Seller, being the “Seller
Termination Date”).

     Section 7.5 Survival. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
any other Related Document, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause
or procedure) of any agreement made by a Seller under this Agreement shall in
any way affect or impair the obligations, duties and liabilities of such Seller
or the rights of such Seller relating to any unpaid portion of any and all
obligations of such Seller to Buyer, due or not due, liquidated, contingent or
unliquidated or any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination,
or any transaction or event, the performance of which is required after the
Agreement Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller Termination Date
relating to such Seller). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
any other Related Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties
and representations of or binding upon a Seller, and all rights of such Seller
hereunder shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such
termination or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until
the date after the Agreement Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller
Termination Date relating to such Seller) when the Outstanding Balances of all
Transferred Receivables transferred hereunder by such Seller prior to such
Agreement Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller Termination Date
relating to such Seller) have been reduced to zero; provided, that the rights
and remedies pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.5, 6.3(d), 7.3, 7.11 and
7.12 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

     Section 7.6 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This Agreement
constitutes the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and may not be modified,
altered or amended except by written agreement of the parties hereto; provided,
that if an amendment, modification or alteration affects one or more Sellers
but not all of the Sellers, only the affected Seller or affected Sellers shall
be required to sign such amendment, modification or alteration. The S&P
Condition shall be satisfied in the case of any amendment, modification or
alteration of this Agreement.

     Section 7.7 GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

     (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL
RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 
5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL
OBLIGATIONS LAW BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICT OF

Receivables Sale Agreement

26

 

LAW PROVISIONS
THEREOF) AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

     (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL
COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY SHALL HAVE
EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN
THEM PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY
APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF
THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY; PROVIDED FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE BUYER FROM BRINGING SUIT
OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE
RECEIVABLES OR ANY SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OF A SELLER ARISING HEREUNDER
OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF BUYER. EACH PARTY
HERETO SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR
SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION,
IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF
SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH
PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER
PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH
SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED
MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
SECTION 7.1 AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER
OF SUCH PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE
UNITED STATES MAIL, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL
AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PERMITTED BY LAW.

     (c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE
PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT
OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR
INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN

Receivables Sale Agreement

27

 

CONNECTION WITH
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     Section 7.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately
constitute one agreement.

     Section 7.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of
this Agreement.

     Section 7.10 Section Titles. The section titles and table of contents
contained in this Agreement are provided for ease of reference only and shall
be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a
part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

     Section 7.11 No Setoff. A Seller’s obligations under this Agreement shall
not be affected by any right of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right such Seller might have against Buyer, all of which rights are
hereby expressly waived by such Seller.

     Section 7.12 Further Assurances.

     (a) Each Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, upon request of
Buyer, promptly and duly authorize, execute and/or deliver, as applicable, any
and all further instruments and documents and take such further actions that
Buyer may reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and
purposes of this Agreement or to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and
of the rights and powers herein granted, including authorizing and filing any
financing or continuation statements under the UCC with respect to the
ownership interest of Buyer created by this Agreement. Each Seller hereby
authorizes Buyer to file any such financing or continuation statements without
the signature of such Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law. A
carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of any notice
or financing statement covering the Transferred Assets or any part thereof
shall be sufficient as a notice or financing statement where permitted by law.
If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Transferred Assets
is or shall become evidenced by any instrument, such instrument, other than
checks and notes received in the ordinary course of business, shall be duly
endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Buyer immediately upon such Seller’s
receipt thereof and promptly delivered to or at the direction of Buyer.

     (b) If a Seller fails to perform any agreement or obligation under this
Section 7.12, Buyer may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the reasonable expenses of
Buyer incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Seller upon
demand of Buyer.

     Section 7.13 Accounting Changes. If any Accounting Changes occur and such
changes result in a change in the standards or terms used herein, then the
parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such
provisions so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired
result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition
of such Persons and their Subsidiaries shall be the same after such
Accounting Changes as if such

Receivables Sale Agreement

28

 

Accounting Changes had not been made. If the
parties hereto agree upon the required amendments to this Agreement, then after
appropriate amendments have been executed and the underlying Accounting Change
with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to GAAP contained
herein shall, only to the extent of such Accounting Change, refer to GAAP
consistently applied after giving effect to the implementation of such
Accounting Change. If such parties cannot agree upon the required amendments
within thirty (30) days following the date of implementation of any Accounting
Change, then all financial statements delivered and all standards and terms
used herein shall be prepared, delivered and used without regard to the
underlying Accounting Change.

     Section 7.14 No Indirect or Consequential Damages. NO PARTY TO THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT,
ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER
PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT,
PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF
ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER.

     Section 7.15 TCFC and BAC. TCFC hereby releases and terminates any Lien
in favor of TCFC on any Transferred Assets relating to BAC (the “BAC
Transferred Assets”), including any Lien on the BAC Transferred Assets arising
under the Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of October 24, 2002, between
BAC and TCFC. TCFC hereby authorizes the filing of one or more UCC financing
statement amendments with respect to BAC reflecting such release and
termination. The BAC Transferred Assets shall not be subject to any servicing
agreement between TCFC and BAC, including the TCFC Services Agreement, dated as
of October 24, 2002, between BAC and TCFC.

interest in Buyer with respect to all of such Seller’s right, title and
interest in, to and under the Transferred Assets which (a) is enforceable
against creditors of and purchasers from such Seller, as such enforceability
may be limited by applicable law, now or hereafter in effect, and by general
principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity), and
(b) will be prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances) in
such property.

     2. Characterization. The Receivables constitute “accounts”, “general
intangibles” or “chattel paper” within the meaning of
UCC Section 
9-102.

     3. Creation. Immediately prior to its conveyance of the Transferred
Assets pursuant to this Agreement, such Seller owns and has good and marketable
title to such Transferred Assets free and clear of any Lien, claim or
encumbrance of any Person (other than Permitted Encumbrances).

     4. Perfection. Such Seller has caused, or will have caused within ten
(10) days after the Closing Date or any applicable Addition Date, the filing of
all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the
appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect Buyer’s
ownership of such Transferred Assets. Except as contemplated by clause (l) of
the definition of “Eligible Receivable,” such Seller has taken all steps
necessary to perfect its security interest against the related Dealer in the
property securing the related Receivables.

     5. Priority. Other than the ownership interests transferred to Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement, such Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold,
granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Transferred
Assets except as permitted by this Agreement. Such Seller has not authorized
the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against such Seller
that include a description of collateral covering the Transferred Assets other
than any financing statement (i) in favor of Buyer and its assignees, (ii) that
has been terminated (or, in the case of the BAC Transferred Assets referred to
in Section 7.15, that will be amended within ten (10) days after the Closing
Date in order to reflect the release of security interest described in Section
7.15), or (iii) that has been granted pursuant to the terms of the Related
Documents. None of the chattel paper that constitutes or evidences the
Receivables has any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged,
assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than Buyer. Such Seller is
not aware of any judgment lien, ERISA lien or tax lien filings against it.

     6. Survival of Perfection Representations. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document, the representations
contained in this Schedule 6.1(a)(viii) shall be continuing and remain in full
force and effect.

     7. No Waiver. The parties to this Agreement: (i) shall not, without the
consent of the other parties, waive any of the representations and warranties
in this Schedule 6.1(a)(viii) (the “Perfection Representations”); (ii) shall
provide the other parties with prompt written notice

Receivables Sale Agreement

Sch. 6.1(a)(viii)-1

 

of any breach of the Perfection Representations; and (iii) shall not,
without the consent of S&P (if S&P is then rating any outstanding Series) waive
a breach of any of the Perfection Representations.

     8. Seller to Maintain Perfection and Priority. Each Seller covenants
that, in order to evidence the interests of such Seller and Buyer under this
Agreement, such Seller shall take such action, or execute and deliver such
instruments (other than effecting a Filing (as defined below), unless such
Filing is effected in accordance with this paragraph) as may be necessary or
advisable (including such actions as are requested by Buyer) to maintain and
perfect, as a first priority interest, Buyer’s ownership of the Transferred
Assets. Such Seller shall, from time to time and within the time limits
established by law, prepare and present to Buyer for Buyer to authorize (based
in reliance on the Opinion of Counsel hereinafter provided for in this
paragraph) such Seller to file, all financing statements, amendments,
continuations, financing statements in lieu of a continuation statement,
terminations, partial terminations, releases or partial releases, or any other
filings necessary or advisable to continue, maintain and perfect Buyer’s
ownership of the Transferred Assets as a first-priority interest (each a
“Filing”). Such Seller shall present each such Filing to Buyer together with
(x) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Filing (i) satisfies all
requirements and conditions to such Filing in this Agreement and (ii) satisfies
the requirements for a Filing of such type under the UCC in the applicable
jurisdiction, and (y) a form of authorization for Buyer’s signature. Upon
receipt of such Opinion of Counsel and form of authorization, Buyer shall
promptly authorize in writing such Seller to, and such Seller shall, effect
such Filing under the UCC. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to
the contrary, such Seller shall not have any authority to effect a Filing
without obtaining written authorization from Buyer in accordance with this
paragraph.

     9 Miscellaneous. All financing statements filed against such Seller in
favor of Buyer in connection herewith describing the Transferred Assets contain
a statement to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in
any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of
the secured party.”

FORM OF ASSIGNMENT

(As required by Section 2.6(c) of the Agreement)

     ASSIGNMENT
No. ___ OF RECEIVABLES IN ADDITIONAL ACCOUNTS (this
“Assignment”) dated as of ____________, by and between [GE COMMERCIAL
DISTRIBUTION FINANCE CORPORATION] [TRANSAMERICA COMMERCIAL FINANCE CORPORATION]
[BRUNSWICK ACCEPTANCE COMPANY, LLC], as seller (“Seller”) and CDF FUNDING,
INC., as buyer (“Buyer”), pursuant to the Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H :

     WHEREAS, Seller and Buyer are parties to the Receivables Sale Agreement,
dated as of August 12, 2004 (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time, the “Agreement”); and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement, Seller wishes to designate Additional
Accounts to be included as Accounts and to convey the Transferred Receivables
in such Additional Accounts that have been designated “Additional Accounts”
pursuant to the Agreement, whether now existing or hereafter created, to Buyer
(as each such term is defined in the Agreement); and

     WHEREAS, Buyer is willing to accept such designation and conveyance
subject to the terms and conditions hereof;

     NOW, THEREFORE, Seller and Buyer hereby agree as follows:

     1. Defined Terms. All terms defined in the Agreement and used herein
shall have such defined meanings when used herein, unless otherwise defined
herein.

          “Addition Date” means, with respect to the Additional Accounts
designated hereby, [________], 20[__].

          “Addition Cut-Off Date” means, with respect to Additional Accounts
designated hereby,
[________],
20[__].

          “Transferred Property” is defined in Section 3(a).

     2. Designation of Additional Accounts. The Accounts listed on Schedule 1
to this Assignment have been designated “Additional Accounts” pursuant to the
Agreement. Schedule 1 to this Assignment, as of the Addition Date, shall
supplement Schedule 1 to the Agreement as required by Section 2.1(b) of the
Agreement.

     3. Conveyance of Receivables.

          (a) Seller does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey,
without recourse except as set forth in this Assignment and the Agreement, to
Buyer, all its right, title

Receivables Sale Agreement

Exh. A-1

 

and interest in, to and under the following (the “Transferred Property”):
the Receivables in such Additional Accounts existing at the close of business
on the Addition Date and thereafter created from time to time until the
Agreement Termination Date (or, if applicable, the Seller Termination Date with
respect to such Seller), the Collateral Security and Collections with respect
thereto and related Recoveries, together with all monies due or to become due
and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto and Insurance
Proceeds relating thereto and all proceeds of the foregoing. The foregoing
does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption
by Buyer of any obligation of any Seller or any other Person in connection with
the Accounts or the Transferred Receivables or under any agreement or
instrument relating thereto, including any obligation under any Financing
Agreement, any Floorplan Agreement, or any Participation Agreement, or any
obligation to any Dealer or any Manufacturer.

          (b) Seller agrees to record and file, at its own expense, financing
statements (and continuation statements when applicable) with respect to the
Receivables in Additional Accounts existing on the Addition Date and thereafter
created meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in
such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of,
Buyer’s ownership of such Receivables, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of
each such financing statement or other evidence of such filing to Buyer within
ten (10) days of the Addition Date. Buyer shall be under no obligation
whatsoever to file such financing or continuation statements or to make any
other filing under the UCC in connection with such sale and assignment.

          (c) In connection with such assignment, Seller further agrees, at its own
expense, on or prior to the date of this Assignment, to indicate and cause
Master Servicer to indicate in the appropriate computer files that Receivables
created in connection with the Additional Accounts and designated hereby have
been conveyed to Buyer pursuant to the Agreement and this Assignment.

          (d) The parties hereto intend that the transfer of the Transferred
Property by Seller to Buyer shall constitute a sale by Seller to Buyer and not
a loan by Buyer to Seller secured by the Transferred Property. If, contrary to
the intent of the parties hereto, a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that any transaction provided for herein constitutes a loan and not a sale of
the Transferred Property, then this Assignment shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law and Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and
Seller hereby grants, to Buyer a security interest in and to all of Seller’s
right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Property.

     4. Acceptance by Buyer. Buyer hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all
right, title and interest to the property, existing on the Addition Date and
thereafter created, conveyed to Buyer pursuant to Section 3(a) of this
Assignment. Buyer further acknowledges that, prior to or simultaneously with
the execution and delivery of this Assignment, Seller delivered to it the
Account Schedule described in Section 2 of this Assignment.

warrants to Buyer as of the Addition Date:

Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,

enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether
considered in a suit at law or in equity);

          (b) each of the Transferred Receivables satisfies the criteria for an

the Additional Accounts from the available Eligible Accounts;

          (e) as of the Addition Date, Seller is solvent;

          (f) the Account Schedule delivered pursuant to this Assignment is an
accurate and complete listing in all material respects of all the Accounts as

with respect to the identity of such Accounts and the Transferred Receivables
existing in such Accounts, is true and correct in all material respects as of
the Addition Cut-Off Date;

          (g) the Agreement and this Assignment transfer ownership to Buyer of the

          (h) the Transferred Receivables constitute “accounts”, “chattel paper” or
“general intangibles” within the meaning of UCC

this Agreement, Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the

assignment to Buyer pursuant to this Assignment, Seller had not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of
the Transferred Receivables. Seller has not authorized the filing of and is
not aware of any UCC financing statements against Seller that included a
description of collateral covering the Transferred Receivables.

     6. Amendment of the Agreement. The Agreement is hereby amended to provide
that all references therein to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed
from and after the Addition Date to be a dual reference to the Agreement as

conditions of the Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to
be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

     7. Counterparts. This Assignment may be executed in two or more
counterparts (and by different parties on separate counterparts), each of which
shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the
same instrument.

     8. GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

          (a) THIS ASSIGNMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL
RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL
OBLIGATIONS LAW, BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS
THEREOF) AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

          (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL
COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY SHALL HAVE

TO THIS ASSIGNMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY
APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF
THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY. EACH PARTY HERETO SUBMITS AND
CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY
SUCH COURT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY
MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON
CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE
RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH
ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER
PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT

SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH PARTY’S

PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

          (c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE
PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT

set over and otherwise convey to Buyer, without recourse except as provided
herein, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under, the
following (the “Transferred Assets”): (i) the Receivables existing at the
opening of business on the Closing Date, and thereafter created from time to
time until the Agreement Termination Date, together with the Collateral
Security and Collections with respect thereto and related Recoveries, in each
case together with all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or
receivable with respect thereto and Insurance Proceeds relating thereto, (ii)
without limiting the generality of the foregoing or the following, all of
Seller’s rights to receive payments from any Dealer in respect of such
Receivables and (iii) all proceeds of all of the foregoing. The foregoing does
not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by
Buyer of any obligation of Seller or any other Person in connection with the
Accounts or the Transferred Receivables or under any agreement or instrument
relating thereto, including any obligation under the Financing Agreements, the
Floorplan Agreements or any Participation Agreement or any obligation to any
Dealer or any Manufacturer. The foregoing conveyance shall be effective (x) on
the Closing Date, as to all Transferred Assets then existing (it being
understood and agreed that, in the case of this clause (x), the Collections
transferred to Buyer shall include all Collections since July 31, 2004), and
(y) on each Purchase Date, as to all Transferred Assets arising since the prior
Purchase Date.

     (b) Seller agrees, at its own expense, (i) on or prior to (x) the Closing
Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, (y) the applicable Addition Date, in
the case of Additional Accounts, and (z) the applicable Removal Date, in the
case of Removed Accounts, to indicate, or cause to be indicated, in the
appropriate computer files that Receivables created (or reassigned, if
applicable, in the case of Removed Accounts) in connection with the Accounts
have been

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

11

 

conveyed to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (or conveyed to Seller or its
designee, if applicable, in accordance with Section 2.7, in the case of Removed
Accounts) by including, or causing to be included, in such computer files a
code so identifying each such Account (or, in the case of Removed Accounts,
deleting, or causing to be deleted, such code thereafter) and (ii) on or prior
to the date referred to in clauses (i)(x), (y) or (z), as applicable, to
deliver to Buyer an Account Schedule. The initial such Account Schedule, as
supplemented from time to time to reflect Additional Accounts and Removed
Accounts, shall be marked as Schedule 1 to this Agreement and is hereby
incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. Once the code referenced
in clause (i) of this paragraph has been included with respect to any Account,
Seller further agrees not to permit such code to be altered during the
remaining term of this Agreement unless and until (x) such Account becomes a
Removed Account, or (y) Seller shall have delivered to Buyer at least thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice of its intention to do so and has taken such
action as is necessary or advisable to cause the interest of Buyer in the
Transferred Receivables to continue to be perfected with the priority required
by this Agreement.

     (c) By execution of this Agreement, Seller does hereby transfer, assign,
set over and otherwise convey to Buyer, as a capital contribution, all of
Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under (i) the Note Trust
Certificate, (ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing or the
following, all of Seller’s rights to receive payments from the DFS Financing
Trust in respect of the Note Trust Certificate, and (iii) all proceeds of the
foregoing. On the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an instrument of
assignment in respect of the Note Trust Certificate, substantially in the form
of the assignment attached to the Note Trust Certificate, and shall deliver, or
cause to be delivered, to Buyer a registered certificate representing the Note
Trust Certificate. The foregoing does not constitute and is not intended to
result in the creation or assumption by Buyer of any obligation of Seller or
any other Person in connection with the Note Trust Certificate.

     Section 2.2 Acceptance by Buyer.

     (a) Buyer hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest to the property, now existing and hereafter created, conveyed to Buyer
pursuant to Section 2.1. Buyer shall maintain a copy of Schedule 1, as
delivered to it from time to time.

     (b) Buyer hereby agrees not to disclose to any Person any account numbers
or other information contained in the Account Schedule marked as Schedule 1 and
delivered to Buyer, from time to time, except (i) to Master Servicer, any
Sub-Servicer or as required by a Requirement of Law applicable to Buyer, (ii)
in connection with the performance of Buyer’s duties hereunder, (iii) to the
Indenture Trustee in connection with its duties or (iv) to bona fide creditors
or potential creditors of Master Servicer or Seller for the limited purpose of
enabling any such creditor to identify Transferred Receivables or Accounts
subject to this Agreement. Buyer agrees to take such measures as shall be
reasonably requested by Seller to protect and maintain the security and
confidentiality of such information and, in connection therewith, shall allow
Seller or its duly authorized representatives to inspect Buyer’s security and
confidentiality arrangements from time to time during normal business hours
upon prior written notice. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of any request
received by Buyer to disclose information of the type described in this Section
2.2(b), which notice shall in any event be provided no later than five (5)
Business Days prior to disclosure of any such information unless Buyer is
compelled pursuant to

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

12

 

a Requirement of Law to disclose such information prior to the date that
is five (5) Business Days after the giving of such notice.

     Section 2.3 Characterization of Transfers.

     (a) The parties hereto intend that each transfer of the Transferred Assets
by Seller to Buyer shall constitute a sale by Seller to Buyer and not a loan by
Buyer to Seller secured by the Transferred Assets. If, contrary to the intent
of the parties hereto, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any
transfer of Transferred Assets by Seller to Buyer constitutes a loan and not a
sale of the Transferred Assets, then this Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law with respect to the Transferred Assets and
Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and Seller hereby grants, to Buyer a
security interest in and to all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to
and under the Transferred Assets.

     (b) The parties hereto intend that the transfer of the Note Trust
Certificate by Seller to Buyer shall constitute a capital contribution by
Seller to Buyer and not a loan by Buyer to Seller secured by the Note Trust
Certificate. If, contrary to the interest of the parties hereto, a court of
competent jurisdiction determines that the transfer of the Note Trust
Certificate by Seller to Buyer constitutes a loan and not a capital
contribution, then this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law with respect to the Note Trust Certificate and Seller shall be
deemed to have granted, and Seller hereby grants, to Buyer a security interest
in all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Note Trust
Certificate.

     Section 2.4 Purchase Price.

     (a) The purchase price for the Transferred Receivables and the other
Transferred Assets related thereto shall equal the fair market value of such
Transferred Receivables and other Transferred Assets as agreed upon by Buyer
and Seller prior to such sale (such amount for any Transferred Assets, the
“Purchase Price”).

     (b) The Purchase Price for any Transferred Assets sold by Seller shall be
payable in full in cash on each Purchase Date; provided, however, that Buyer
may, with respect to any sale, offset against such Purchase Price any amounts
owed by Seller to Buyer hereunder and which remain unpaid. On each such
Purchase Date or other date set by the parties for payment, Buyer shall, upon
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make
available to Seller the Purchase Price for the applicable Transferred Assets in
same day funds.

     Section 2.5 Adjustments. If on any day the outstanding amount of any
Principal Receivable is reduced because of a rebate, refund, unauthorized
charge or billing error to a Dealer, or because such Principal Receivable was
created in respect of merchandise which was refused or returned by a Dealer, or
if the outstanding amount of any Principal Receivable is otherwise reduced
other than on account of Collections thereof or such amount being charged-off
as uncollectible, then Seller shall compensate Buyer for such reduction in the
outstanding amount of such Principal Receivable as provided below. Any
adjustment required pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made not later
than the second Business Day after the Date of Processing for the event giving
rise to such adjustment or less frequently if so agreed between Buyer and
Seller. The amount of each such reduction shall be deducted from the amount of
the

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

13

 

Purchase Price payable by Buyer to Seller on the Purchase Date that
coincides with or next follows the date of the adjustment, and Seller shall pay
Buyer on that Purchase Date any excess of the aggregate amount of such
reductions over the aggregate Purchase Price otherwise payable to Seller on
that Purchase Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Purchase Date the
aggregate amount of such reductions shall be paid gross by Seller to Buyer,
without netting against the Purchase Price, to the extent that Buyer informs
Seller that Buyer requires funds to make payments on account of such reductions
under any of the Related Documents.

     Section 2.6 Addition of Accounts.

     (a) Additional Accounts. (i) From time to time, Seller may designate
additional Eligible Accounts (“Additional Accounts”) to be included as
Accounts, so long as the following limits are not exceeded:

	 	(A)	 	during the calendar quarter in which such
Eligible Accounts are added as Accounts, the number of new
Accounts for Dealers that are financing Products of the type
already being financed by an Originator and that are
purchasing such Products from Manufacturers with which an
Originator has an existing business arrangement, does not
exceed ten percent (10%) of the number of all Accounts as of
the end of the preceding calendar quarter,
	 
	 	(B)	 	during the twelve (12) months ending at the
beginning of such calendar quarter, the number of new Accounts
designated pursuant to this sentence does not exceed twenty
percent (20%) of the number of all Accounts as of the
beginning of such twelve (12) month period,
	 
	 	(C)	 	during the calendar quarter in which such
Eligible Accounts are added as Accounts, the outstanding
balance of the Principal Receivables in new Accounts
designated pursuant to this sentence, measured in the case of
a new Account as of the effective date of such designation,
does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Combined Outstanding
Principal Balances (as such term is defined in the Indenture)
as of the end of the preceding calendar quarter, and
	 
	 	(D)	 	during the twelve (12) months ending at the
beginning of such calendar quarter, the outstanding balance of
the Principal Receivables in new Accounts designated pursuant
to this sentence, measured in the case of a new Account as of
the effective date of such designation, does not exceed twenty
percent (20%) of the Combined Outstanding Principal Balances
(as such term is defined in the Indenture) as of the beginning
of such twelve (12) month period.

     (ii) An Account that is removed pursuant to Section 2.7 for the
purpose of permitting an Originator to convey a participation interest in
Receivables arising in such Account and that, after such participation
interest is created, is designated as an

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

14

 

Additional Account with an Addition Date that is no more than
forty-five (45) days after its Removal Date, will not need to satisfy the
limits described above.

     (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may designate Additional
Accounts without regard to the limitations in clause (i) above, or
designate Accounts as Additional Accounts if such Accounts are acquired
by an Originator from another Person, if the Rating Agency Condition is
satisfied.

     (iv) If at the end of any Monthly Period, the Free Equity Amount is
less than the Minimum Free Equity Amount or the Note Trust Principal
Balance is less than the Required Principal Balance, Seller shall
designate Additional Accounts on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day
following that Monthly Period. The amount of the required addition is
the amount necessary so that the Free Equity Amount and the Note Trust
Principal Balance, in each case computed on a pro forma basis as if the
Additional Accounts have been designated prior to the end of the Monthly
Period, would at least equal the Minimum Free Equity Amount and Required
Principal Balance, respectively.

     (b) Designated Participation Interests. In lieu of, or in addition to,
designating Additional Accounts as contemplated by subsection (a) above and in
addition to the Note Trust Certificate, Seller may convey to Buyer
participations or additional trust certificates representing undivided or
beneficial interests in a pool of assets primarily consisting of receivables
arising under dealer floorplan loan credit arrangements owned by Seller or any
of its Affiliates and collections thereon (“Designated Participation
Interests”). Seller and Buyer will enter into an amendment to this Agreement
relating to the conveyance of any Designated Participation Interest. The
Rating Agency Condition shall be satisfied in connection with any conveyance of
a Designated Participation Interest under this subsection (b).

     (c) Conditions for Additions of Additional Accounts. Any sale of
Receivables from Additional Accounts shall occur only upon satisfaction of the
following conditions on or before the Addition Date (to the extent provided
below):

     (i) Seller shall have delivered to Buyer (A) prior notice of such
Addition Date, (B) a written assignment in substantially the form of
Exhibit A (the “Assignment”), and Seller shall indicate in its computer
files that the Receivables created in connection with the Additional
Accounts have been transferred to Buyer, and (C) an Account Schedule
reflecting the addition of such Additional Accounts (which Account
Schedule shall be attached as a schedule to such Assignment); and

     (ii) Seller shall deliver an Opinion of Counsel with respect to the
Receivables in the Additional Accounts to Buyer (in such numbers and with
such additional addressees as Buyer may reasonably request) substantially
in the form of Exhibit C (with appropriate modifications).

     Section 2.7 Removal of Accounts.

     From time to time, but not more frequently than once during each Monthly
Period for any Dealer, Seller may request (which request Buyer may deny): (i)
the removal of one or more

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

15

 

Accounts from the Account Schedule, and (ii) if any such Account was not
an Eligible Account at the time such Account was originally added to the
Account Schedule, the reassignment to Seller or its designee of all Buyer’s
right, title and interest in, to and under (A) the Transferred Receivables then
existing and thereafter created in such Account, (B) the Collateral Security,
Collections and Recoveries with respect thereto, and (C) all monies due or to
become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto and
Insurance Proceeds relating thereto. Any such removal and reassignment shall
be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

     (i) on or before the third Business Day immediately preceding the
Removal Date (the “Removal Notice Date”), Seller shall have given Buyer
written notice of such request and specifying the date for removal of the
proposed Removed Accounts (the “Removal Date”);

     (ii) Buyer shall have delivered its written consent for such removal
to Seller;

     (iii) on or prior to the Removal Date, Seller shall have delivered
to Buyer a schedule listing the proposed Removed Accounts and a schedule
listing the Accounts that are not proposed to be Removed Accounts (which
schedules shall be attached as schedules to such Reassignment);

     (iv) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been met;

     (v) Seller shall have delivered to Buyer an Officer’s Certificate,
dated as of the Removal Date, to the effect that Seller reasonably
believes that: (i) individual Accounts or administratively convenient
groups of Accounts were chosen for removal on a random basis; (ii) no
selection procedure believed by Seller to be materially adverse to the
interest of Buyer or any of its creditors has been used in selecting the
Removed Accounts; and (iii) the removal shall not cause an Early
Amortization Event; and

     (vi) the Outstanding Balance of the Principal Receivables in such
Removed Accounts will not exceed ten billion dollars ($10,000,000,000) or
such higher dollar amount as to which the Rating Agency Condition may be
satisfied (such Rating Agency Condition shall be deemed to have been
satisfied upon the satisfaction of clause (iv) above).

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conditions specified in clauses (ii),
(iv), (v) and (vi) shall not apply to the removal of Ineligible Accounts.

     Upon satisfaction of the above conditions (and subject to receipt by Buyer
of the reassignment price agreed upon between Buyer and Seller): (i) Buyer
shall execute and deliver to Seller or its designee a written reassignment in
substantially the form of Exhibit B (the “Reassignment”); (ii) the Account
Schedule shall be deemed to have been amended to remove such Removed Accounts;
and (iii) if such Removed Accounts were not Eligible Accounts at the time such
Accounts were originally designated as Accounts, Buyer shall, without further
action, be deemed to transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to Seller
or its designee, effective as of the Removal Date, without recourse,
representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

16

 

of Buyer in and to the Transferred Receivables arising in such Removed
Accounts, the Collateral Security and Collections and Recoveries with respect
thereto, and all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or
receivable with respect thereto and Insurance Proceeds relating thereto and all
proceeds of the foregoing). In addition, Buyer shall execute such other
documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and take such other actions
as shall reasonably be requested by Seller to effect the conveyance of
Transferred Receivables pursuant to clause (iii) of the previous sentence.

     In addition, at the request of Seller, which request shall specify certain
Delinquent Receivables, Buyer shall sell such Delinquent Receivables to Seller,
whether or not in connection with a removal of the related Account, pursuant to
documents in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer and Seller. Seller will
repurchase such Delinquent Receivables pursuant to this paragraph by paying to
Buyer a repurchase price equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Delinquent
Receivables plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Seller may transfer such
Delinquent Receivables to one of its shareholders or to another Affiliate of
Seller; provided that neither Seller nor any transferee from Seller shall
transfer such Delinquent Receivables to an Originator. On any date, the
aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Receivables with respect to which Buyer
will be permitted to transfer to Seller pursuant to this paragraph shall not
exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the
Receivables held by Buyer on such date. If not exercised sooner, the
provisions of this paragraph with respect to any Receivables will automatically
terminate upon (i) the related Dealer’s cure of any defaults on such
Receivable, (ii) the acquisition by, or on behalf of, Buyer of the related
assets through repossession or (iii) a repurchase of such Receivable due to
Seller’s breach of a representation with respect to such Receivable.

     Section 2.8 Additional Sellers. Seller may consent to the designation of
additional or substitute Persons to be included as “Sellers” under the First
Tier Agreement by an amendment to the First Tier Agreement only if the Rating
Agency Condition has been satisfied in connection therewith.

     Section 2.9 Additional Originators. Seller may consent to the designation
of additional Persons as “Originators” under the First Tier Agreement by an
amendment to the First Tier Agreement only if the Rating Agency Condition has
been satisfied in connection therewith.

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

     Section 6.1 Representations and Warranties of Seller.

     (a) To induce Buyer to accept the Transferred Assets and the Note Trust
Certificate, Seller makes the following representations and warranties to
Buyer, as of the Closing Date (in the case of Seller) and, to the extent
applicable, on each subsequent Transfer Date following the date on which Seller
became Seller.

     (i) Valid Existence; Power and Authority. Seller (A) is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization; (B) is duly qualified to conduct business
and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where its ownership or
lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such
qualification and where the failure to be so qualified or in good
standing would have a Material Adverse Effect; (C) has all requisite
power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under
this Agreement; and (D) is able to perform its obligations under this
Agreement and the First Tier Agreement.

     (ii) UCC Information. The true legal name of Seller as registered
in the jurisdiction of its organization and the current location of
Seller’s jurisdiction of organization are set forth in Schedule
6.1(a)(ii) and such name and location have not changed within the past
twelve (12) months. In addition, Schedule 6.1(a)(ii) lists Seller’s (A)
federal employer identification number and (B) organizational
identification number as designated by the jurisdiction of its
organization.

     (iii) Authorization of Transaction; No Violation. The execution,
delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement and the other
Related Documents to which Seller is a party and, without limiting the
foregoing, the creation of all ownership interests provided for herein:
(A) have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of
Seller, and (B) do not violate any provision of any law or regulation of
any Governmental Authority, or contractual or restrictions binding on
Seller, except where such violations, individually or in the aggregate,
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (iv) Enforceability. On or prior to the Closing Date, each of the
Related Documents to which Seller is a party shall have been duly
executed and delivered by Seller and each such Related Document shall
then constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to
bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity.

     (v) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or, to the best
knowledge of the Seller, investigations, pending or threatened against
the Seller, before any Governmental Authority (i) asserting the
invalidity of this Agreement, (ii) seeking to

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

20

 

prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that, in the
reasonable judgment of the Seller, would materially and adversely affect
the performance by the Seller of its obligations under this Agreement or
(iv) seeking any determination or ruling that would materially and
adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

     (vi) Accuracy of Certain Information. All written factual
information heretofore furnished by Seller to Buyer with respect to the
Transferred Receivables or the Note Trust Certificate for the purposes
of, or in connection with, this Agreement was true and correct in all
material respects on the date as of which such information was stated or
certified.

     (vii) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds received by Seller under this
Agreement will be used by it for any purpose that violates Regulation U
of the Federal Reserve Board.

     (viii) Transferred Receivables and Note Trust Certificate. With
respect to each Transferred Receivable transferred by Seller to Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement, Seller represents and warrants that as of the
Transfer Date for such Transferred Receivable (and as of the Closing Date
with respect to the Note Trust Certificate):

     (A) such Transferred Receivable satisfies the criteria for an
Eligible Receivable as of such Transfer Date;

     (B) all authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of or
registrations or declarations with any Governmental Authority
required to be obtained, effected or given by Seller in connection
with the conveyance by Seller of such Transferred Receivable and
the Note Trust Certificate to Buyer have been duly obtained,
effected or given and are in full force and effect; and

     (C) the additional representations and warranties set forth in
Schedule 6.1(a)(viii) are true and correct.

     The representations and warranties described in this Section 6.1(a) shall
survive the sale of the Transferred Assets and the Note Trust Certificate to
Buyer, any subsequent assignment or sale of the Transferred Assets by Buyer,
and the termination of this Agreement, the Series 2004-NTC Supplement and the
other Related Documents and shall continue until the payment in full of all
Transferred Assets and the Note Trust Certificate.

     (b) Upon discovery by Seller or Buyer of a breach of any of the
representations and warranties by Seller set forth in this Section 6.1, the
party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other.
Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer in attempting to cure any such breach.

     (c) If any representation or warranty of Seller contained in Section
6.1(a)(viii) is not true and correct in any material respect as of the date
specified therein with respect to any Transferred Receivable or any Account and
as a result of such breach Buyer’s interest in such Transferred Receivable or
Account is materially and adversely affected, including if Buyer’s

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

21

 

rights in, to or under such Transferred Receivables or the proceeds of
such Transferred Receivables are impaired or such proceeds are not available
for any reason to Buyer free and clear of any Lien other than Permitted
Encumbrances, unless cured within sixty (60) days (or such longer period, not
in excess of one hundred twenty (120) days, as may be agreed to by Buyer) after
the earlier to occur of the discovery thereof by Seller or receipt by Seller of
notice thereof given by Buyer, then such Transferred Receivable shall be
designated an “Ineligible Receivable;” provided, that such Transferred
Receivables will not be deemed to be Ineligible Receivables but will be deemed
Eligible Receivables if, on any day prior to the end of such sixty (60) day or
longer period, (i) the relevant representation and warranty shall be true and
correct in all material respects as if made on such day and (ii) Seller shall
have delivered an Officer’s Certificate describing the nature of such breach
and the manner in which the relevant representation and warranty became true
and correct. A Transferred Receivable shall be deemed to become an Ineligible
Receivable if the Dealer relating to such Receivable exercises a Dealer
Repurchase Option with respect thereto.

     (d) Not later than the next Deposit Date falling after the date on which
any Transferred Receivable is designated as an Ineligible Receivable, Seller
shall repurchase such Ineligible Receivable from Buyer as provided below.
“Deposit Date” means the date on which the Issuer is obligated to deposit, or
cause to be deposited, Collections in the Collection Account (as defined in the
Indenture) pursuant to Section 8.4 of the Indenture. The repurchase price for
the Ineligible Receivables in any Account shall equal the outstanding principal
amount of such Receivable, plus accrued and unpaid finance charges thereon as
of the end of the preceding Monthly Period. On any Purchase Date the aggregate
amount of such repurchase prices then payable may be netted against the
Purchase Price then payable, unless Buyer informs Seller that Buyer requires
funds to make payments on account of the related Ineligible Receivables under
any of the Related Documents, in which case such amounts shall be paid gross.

     (e) If any representation or warranty of Seller contained in Section
6.1(a)(i), 6.1(a)(ii), 6.1(a)(iii) or 6.1(a)(iv) of this Agreement is not true
and correct in any material respect and such breach has a material adverse
effect on the Transferred Receivables transferred to Buyer by Seller or the
availability of the proceeds thereof to Buyer, Seller shall be obligated to
accept a reassignment of the Transferred Receivables if such breach and any
material adverse effect caused by such breach is not cured within sixty (60)
days (or within such longer period, not in excess of one hundred fifty (150)
days, as may be agreed to by Buyer), after the earlier to occur of the
discovery thereof by Seller or receipt by Seller of notice thereof given by
Buyer, on the terms set forth below; provided, that such Transferred
Receivables will not be reassigned to Seller if, on any day prior to the end of
such sixty (60) day or longer period (i) the relevant representation and
warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on such
day and (ii) Seller shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate describing
the nature of such breach and the manner in which the relevant representation
and warranty became true and correct. In connection with a reassignment
pursuant to the preceding sentence, Seller shall pay to Buyer in immediately
available funds not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the first
Payment Date following the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation
arises, in payment for such reassignment, an amount equal to the Aggregate
Reassignment Amount. The payment of such deposit amount in immediately
available funds shall otherwise be considered payment in full of all of the
Transferred Receivables.

     (f) Upon the payment, if any, required to be made to Buyer as provided in
Section 6.1(d) or 6.1(e), Buyer shall automatically and without further action
be deemed to transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to Seller or its
designee, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title
and interest of Buyer in and to the applicable Transferred Receivables, all
moneys due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and
all proceeds thereof. Buyer shall execute such documents and instruments of
transfer or assignment and take such other actions as shall reasonably be
requested by Seller to effect the conveyance of such Transferred Receivables
pursuant to this Section.

     Section 6.2 Affirmative Covenants of Seller. Seller severally covenants
and agrees that, unless otherwise consented to by Buyer, from and after the
Closing Date (or the relevant Transfer Date, as applicable) and until the date
after the Agreement Termination Date when the Outstanding Balance of all
Transferred Receivables have been reduced to zero:

     (a) Account Allocations. If Seller is unable for any reason to transfer
Transferred Receivables to Buyer in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement (including by reason of the application of the provisions of Section
5.1 or an order by any Governmental Authority that Seller not transfer any
additional Receivables to Buyer) then, in any such event, Seller agrees to
allocate and pay to Buyer or Master Servicer on its behalf, after the date of
such inability, all Collections with respect to Transferred Receivables
previously sold by Seller to Buyer.

     (b) Notice of Material Event. Seller shall promptly inform Buyer in
writing of the occurrence of any of the following with respect to Seller, in
each case setting forth the details thereof and what action, if any, Seller
proposes to take with respect thereto:

     (i) any Litigation commenced or threatened against Seller or with
respect to or in connection with all or any substantial portion of the
Transferred Assets or with respect to the Note Trust Certificate or
developments in such Litigation, in each case, that Seller believes has a
reasonable risk of being determined adversely and having a Material
Adverse Effect;

     (ii) the commencement of a proceeding against Seller seeking a
decree or order in respect of Seller (A) under any Debtor Relief Laws,
(B) appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or
sequestrator (or similar official) for Seller or for any substantial part
of Seller’s assets, or (C) ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the
affairs of Seller; or

     (iii) Seller’s failure to comply with any of its obligations under
this Agreement.

     (c) Notice of Liens. Seller shall notify Buyer promptly after becoming
aware of any Lien on any Transferred Asset or on the Note Trust Certificate
other than Permitted Encumbrances.

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

23

 

     (d) Information for Reports. Seller shall promptly deliver any material
written information, documents, records or reports with respect to the
Transferred Receivables or the Note Trust Certificate that Buyer shall
reasonably request.

     (e) Deposit of Collections. Seller shall transfer to Buyer or Master
Servicer on its behalf, promptly, and in any event no later than the Business
Day after receipt thereof, all Collections it may receive in respect of
Transferred Assets.

     (f) Financing Agreements and Policies. Seller shall comply with the
Financing Agreements relating to the Accounts and the Credit and Collection
Policies except insofar as any failure to comply or perform would not
materially and adversely affect the rights of Buyer.

     Section 6.3 Negative Covenants of Seller. Seller severally covenants and
agrees that, without the prior written consent of Buyer, from and after the
Closing Date (or the relevant Transfer Date, as applicable) and until the date
after the Agreement Termination Date when the Outstanding Balances of all
Transferred Receivables transferred hereunder prior to such Agreement
Termination Date have been reduced to zero:

     (a) Liens. Seller shall not create, incur, assume or permit to exist any
Lien, other than Permitted Encumbrances, on or with respect to the Transferred
Assets or the Note Trust Certificate.

     (b) Amendments to Financing Agreements and Credit and Collection Policies.
Seller shall not amend the Financing Agreements; provided, that this sentence
shall not prevent Seller from assigning its rights in a Financing Agreement to
another Seller. Seller shall not amend its Credit and Collection Policies if
such amendment would be adverse in any material respect to Buyer.

     (c) UCC Matters. Seller shall not change its state of organization or
formation or its name such that any financing statement filed to perfect
Buyer’s interests under this Agreement would become seriously misleading,
unless Seller shall have given Buyer not less than thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice of such change.

     (d) No Proceedings. From and after the Closing Date and until the date
one (1) year plus one (1) day following the date on which all amounts due with
respect to securities rated by a rating agency that were issued by any entity
holding Transferred Assets or an interest therein have been paid in full in
cash, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, institute or cause to be
instituted against Buyer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under any Debtor
Relief Laws; provided, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit Seller’s
right to pursue any other creditor rights or remedies that Seller may have
under any applicable law.

     (e) Characterization of Sales and Contributions. For accounting purposes,
Seller shall not account for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in
any manner other than, with respect to the sale of each Transferred Receivable,
as a true sale and absolute assignment of its full right, title and ownership
interest in the related Transferred Assets to Buyer For accounting purposes,
Seller shall not account for its transfer of the Note Trust Certificate to

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

24

 

Buyer in any manner other than a capital contribution and absolute
assignment of its full right, title and ownership interest in the Note Trust
Certificate to Buyer. Seller shall also maintain its records and books of
account in a manner which clearly reflects each such sale of the Transferred
Receivables to Buyer and its capital contribution of the Note Trust Certificate
to Buyer.

     Section 7.2 No Waiver; Remedies.

     (a) The failure of any party hereto, at any time or times, to require
strict performance by any other party hereto of any provision of this Agreement
shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of such party thereafter to
demand strict compliance and performance with this Agreement. Any suspension
or waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect
any other breach or default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and
whether of the same or a different type. None of the undertakings, agreements,
warranties, covenants and representations of any party contained in this
Agreement, and no breach or default by any party under this Agreement, shall be
deemed to have been suspended or waived or amended by any other party hereto
unless such waiver or suspension or amendment is by an instrument in writing
signed by an officer of or other duly authorized signatory of such party and,
in the case of a suspension or waiver, directed to the defaulting party
specifying such suspension or waiver.

     (b) Each party’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be
cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies that such party
may have under any other agreement, including the other Related Documents, by
operation of law or otherwise.

     Section 7.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of Seller and Buyer and their respective
successors and permitted assigns, except as otherwise provided herein. Except
as provided below and in Sections 2.8 or
4.1 of this Agreement, Seller may not assign, transfer, hypothecate or
otherwise convey its rights, benefits,

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

26

 

obligations or duties hereunder without
having obtained the prior express written consent of Buyer and having satisfied
the S&P Condition. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or
other conveyance by Seller without the prior express written consent of Buyer
shall be void. Seller acknowledges that under the Indenture, Buyer will grant
security interests in its rights granted hereunder to the Indenture Trustee, on
behalf of the Noteholders, and upon the exercise of remedies with respect to
such security interests, the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders,
shall have, to the extent of such grant, all rights of Buyer hereunder and the
Indenture Trustee may in turn transfer such rights. The terms and provisions
of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and
obligations of Seller and Buyer with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby and no Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of any of the terms and
provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 7.4 Termination. This Agreement shall create and constitute the
continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and
shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier of (a) the termination
of Buyer and (b) the date selected by Seller upon prior notice thereof to Buyer
(such date, the “Agreement Termination Date”).

     Section 7.5 Survival. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
any other Related Document, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause
or procedure) of any agreement made by Seller under this Agreement shall in any
way affect or impair the obligations, duties and liabilities of Seller or the
rights of Seller relating to any unpaid portion of any and all obligations of
Seller to Buyer, due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated or any
transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or
event, the performance of which is required after the Agreement Termination
Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Related
Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and
representations of or binding upon Seller, and all rights of Seller hereunder
shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination or
cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the date after
the Agreement Termination Date when the Outstanding Balances of all Transferred
Receivables transferred hereunder prior to such Agreement Termination Date have
been reduced to zero; provided, that the rights and remedies pursuant to the
provisions of Sections 2.5, 6.3(d), 7.3, 7.11 and 7.12 shall be continuing and
shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

     Section 7.6 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This Agreement
constitutes the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and may not be modified,
altered or amended except by written agreement of the parties hereto.

     Section 7.7 GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

     (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL
RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS
OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

27

 

OBLIGATIONS
LAW BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF) AND ANY
APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

     (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL
COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY SHALL HAVE
EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN
THEM PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY
APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF
THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY; PROVIDED, FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE BUYER FROM BRINGING SUIT
OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE
RECEIVABLES OR ANY SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OF SELLER ARISING HEREUNDER OR
TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF BUYER. EACH PARTY
HERETO SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR
SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION,
IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF
SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH
PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER
PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH
SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED
MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
SECTION 7.1 AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER
OF SUCH PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE
UNITED STATES MAIL, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL
AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PERMITTED BY LAW.

     (c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE
PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT
OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR

INCIDENTAL TO
THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     Section 7.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately
constitute one agreement.

     Section 7.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of
this Agreement.

     Section 7.10 Section Titles. The section titles and table of contents
contained in this Agreement are provided for ease of reference only and shall
be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a
part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

     Section 7.11 No Setoff. Seller’s obligations under this Agreement shall
not be affected by any right of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right Seller might have against Buyer, all of which rights are hereby
expressly waived by Seller.

     Section 7.12 Further Assurances.

     (a) Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, upon request of Buyer,
promptly and duly authorize, execute and/or deliver, as applicable, any and all
further instruments and documents and take such further actions that Buyer may
reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of
this Agreement or to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the
rights and powers herein granted, including authorizing and filing any
financing or continuation statements under the UCC with respect to the
ownership interest of Buyer created by this Agreement. Seller hereby
authorizes Buyer to file any such financing or continuation statements without
the signature of Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law. A carbon,
photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of any notice or
financing statement covering the Transferred Assets or any part thereof shall
be sufficient as a notice or financing statement where permitted by law. If any
amount payable under or in connection with any of the Transferred Assets is or
shall become evidenced by any instrument, such instrument, other than checks
and notes received in the ordinary course of business, shall be duly endorsed
in a manner satisfactory to Buyer immediately upon Seller’s receipt thereof and
promptly delivered to or at the direction of Buyer.

     (b) If Seller fails to perform any agreement or obligation under this
Section 7.12, Buyer may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the reasonable expenses of
Buyer incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller upon demand
of Buyer.

     (c) Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file one or more UCC financing
statements, naming Seller as debtor, Buyer as secured party, and the Indenture
Trustee as total assignee of
assignor/secured party, and covering all of the following property of
Seller, whether now owned

instruments, investment property, letter-of-credit rights, letters of credit,
money, and oil, gas or other minerals before extraction, (ii) all supporting

accessions to, substitutions for or replacements of any of the property
described in clause (i), clause (ii) or clause (iii); and (v) all products or
proceeds of each or any of the foregoing.

     Section 7.13 Accounting Changes. If any Accounting Changes occur and such
changes result in a change in the standards or terms used herein, then the
parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such
provisions so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired
result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of such Persons
and their Subsidiaries shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if
such Accounting Changes had not been made. If the parties hereto agree upon
the required amendments to this Agreement, then after appropriate amendments
have been executed and the underlying Accounting Change with respect thereto
has been implemented, any reference to GAAP contained herein shall, only to the
extent of such Accounting Change, refer to GAAP consistently applied after
giving effect to the implementation of such Accounting Change. If such parties
cannot agree upon the required amendments within thirty (30) days following the
date of implementation of any Accounting Change, then all financial statements
delivered and all standards and terms used herein shall be prepared, delivered
and used without regard to the underlying Accounting Change.

     Section 7.14 No Indirect or Consequential Damages. NO PARTY TO THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT,
ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER
PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT,
PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF
ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER.

     Section 7.15 No Proceedings. From and after the Closing Date and until
the date one year plus one day following the date on which all amounts due with
respect to securities rated by a rating agency that were issued by any entity
holding Transferred Assets or an interest therein have been paid in full in
cash, Buyer shall not, directly or indirectly, institute or cause to be
instituted against Seller any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceeding under any federal or
state bankruptcy or similar law; provided that the foregoing shall not in any
way limit Buyer’s right to pursue any other creditor rights or remedies that
Buyer may have under any applicable law.

     Section 7.16 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision
herein or elsewhere, this Agreement has been executed and delivered by The Bank
of New York (Delaware), not in its individual capacity, but solely in its
capacity as Trustee of Buyer, in no event shall The Bank of New York (Delaware)

SCHEDULE 6.1(a)(viii)

PERFECTION REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     1. General. This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security
interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in favor of Buyer with respect to
all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred
Assets and the Note Trust Certificate which (a) is enforceable against
creditors of and purchasers from Seller, as such enforceability may be limited
by applicable law, now or hereafter in effect, and by general principles of
equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity), and (b) will be
prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Encumbrances) in such property
(in the case of the Note Trust Certificate, upon Buyer obtaining and
maintaining possession of the Note Trust Certificate).

     2. Characterization. The Receivables constitute “accounts”, “general
intangibles” or “chattel paper” within the meaning of the UCC. The Note Trust
Certificate constitutes a “general intangible” or a “payment intangible” or an
“instrument” or a “certificated security” within the meaning of the UCC.

     3. Creation. Immediately prior to its conveyance of the Transferred
Assets and the Note Trust Certificate, as the case may be, pursuant to this
Agreement, Seller owns and has good and marketable title to such Transferred
Assets and the Note Trust Certificate, as the case may be, free and clear of
any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person (other than Permitted
Encumbrances).

     4. Perfection. Seller has caused, or will have caused within (10) days
after the Closing Date or any applicable Addition Date, the filing of all
appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the proper
filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to
perfect the security interest in the Transferred Assets granted to Buyer
hereunder.

     5. Priority. Other than the security interests granted to Buyer pursuant
to this Agreement, Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security
interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Transferred Assets or the Note
Trust Certificate except as permitted by this Agreement. Seller has not
authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against
Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Transferred Assets
or the Note Trust Certificate other than any financing statement (i) in favor
of Buyer and its assignees, (ii) that has been terminated, or (iii) that has
been granted pursuant to the terms of the Related Documents. None of the
chattel paper that constitutes or evidences the Receivables, nor the Note Trust
Certificate, has any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged,
assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than Buyer. Seller is not
aware of any judgment lien, ERISA lien or tax lien filings against it.

     6. Survival of Perfection Representations. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document, the representations
contained in this Schedule 6.1(a)(viii) shall be continuing and remain in full
force and effect in the case of the Transferred Assets, until the Transferred
Receivables have been paid in full, and in the case of the Note Trust
Certificate, until the Note Trust Certificate has been retired.

     7. No Waiver. The parties to this Agreement: (i) shall not, without the
consent of the other parties, waive any of the representations and warranties
in this Schedule 6.1(a)(viii) (the “Perfection Representations”); (ii) shall
provide the other parties with prompt written notice of any breach of the
Perfection Representations; and (iii) shall not, without the consent of S&P (if
S&P is then rating any outstanding Series) waive any of the Perfection
Representations or a breach of any of the Perfection Representations.

     8. Seller to Maintain Perfection and Priority. Seller covenants that, in
order to evidence the interests of Seller and Buyer under this Agreement,
Seller shall take such action, or execute and deliver such instruments (other
than effecting a Filing (as defined below), unless such Filing is effected in
accordance with this paragraph) as may be necessary or advisable (including
such actions as are requested by Buyer) to maintain and perfect, as a first
priority interest, Buyer’s ownership of the Transferred Assets and the Note
Trust Certificate. Seller shall, from time to time and within the time limits
established by law, prepare and present to Buyer for Buyer to authorize (based
in reliance on the Opinion of Counsel hereinafter provided for in this
paragraph) Seller to file, all financing statements, amendments, continuations,
financing statements in lieu of a continuation statement, terminations, partial
terminations, releases or partial releases, or any other filings necessary or
advisable to continue, maintain and perfect Buyer’s ownership of the
Transferred Assets and the Note Trust Certificate as a first-priority interest
(each a “Filing”). Seller shall present each such Filing to Buyer together
with (x) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Filing (i) satisfies all
requirements and conditions to such Filing in this Agreement and (ii) satisfies
the requirements for a Filing of such type under the UCC in the applicable
jurisdiction, and (y) a form of authorization for Buyer’s signature. Upon
receipt of such Opinion of Counsel and form of authorization, Buyer shall
promptly authorize in writing Seller to, and Seller shall, effect such Filing
under the UCC. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the
contrary, Seller shall not have any authority to effect a Filing without
obtaining written authorization from Buyer in accordance with this paragraph.

     9. Miscellaneous. All financing statements filed against Seller in favor
of Buyer in connection herewith describing the Transferred Assets contain a
statement to the following effect: “A purchase of or security interest in any
collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the
secured party.”

FORM OF ASSIGNMENT

(As required by Section 2.6(c) of the Agreement)

ASSIGNMENT No. ____ OF RECEIVABLES IN ADDITIONAL ACCOUNTS (this
“Assignment”) dated as of ___________, by and between CDF FUNDING,
INC., a Delaware corporation, as Seller (“Seller”) and GE DEALER FLOORPLAN
MASTER NOTE TRUST (“Buyer”), pursuant to the Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H :

     WHEREAS, Seller and Buyer are parties to the Receivables Purchase and
Contribution Agreement, dated as of August 12, 2004 (as it may be amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Agreement”); and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement, Seller wishes to designate Additional
Accounts to be included as Accounts and to convey the Transferred Receivables
in such Additional Accounts that have been designated “Additional Accounts”
pursuant to the Agreement, whether now existing or hereafter created, to Buyer
(as each such term is defined in the Agreement); and

     WHEREAS, Buyer is willing to accept such designation and conveyance
subject to the terms and conditions hereof;

     NOW, THEREFORE, Seller and Buyer hereby agree as follows:

     1. Defined Terms. All terms defined in the Agreement and used herein
shall have such defined meanings when used herein, unless otherwise defined
herein.

     “Addition Date” means, with respect to the Additional Accounts
designated hereby, [ _________ ], 20[ ___ ].

     “Addition Cut-Off Date” means, with respect to Additional Accounts
designated hereby, [ _____ ], 20[ __ ].

     “Transferred Property” is defined in Section 3(a).

     2. Designation of Additional Accounts. The Accounts listed on Schedule 1
to this Assignment have been designated “Additional Accounts” pursuant to the
Agreement. Schedule 1 to this Assignment, as of the Addition Date, shall
supplement Schedule 1 to the Agreement as required by Section 2.1(b) of the
Agreement.

     3. Conveyance of Receivables.

          (a) Seller does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey,
without recourse except as set forth in this Assignment and the Agreement, to
Buyer, all its right, title and interest in, to and under the following (the
“Transferred Property”): the Receivables in such

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

Exh. A-1

 

 

Additional Accounts existing at the close of business on the Addition Date
and thereafter created from time to time until the Agreement Termination Date,
the Collateral Security and Collections with respect thereto and related
Recoveries, together with all monies due or to become due and all amounts
received or receivable with respect thereto and Insurance Proceeds relating
thereto and all proceeds of the foregoing. The foregoing does not constitute
and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by Buyer of any
obligation of Seller or any other Person in connection with the Accounts or the
Transferred Receivables or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto,
including any obligation under any Financing Agreement, any Floorplan
Agreement, or any Participation Agreement, or any obligation to any Dealer or
any Manufacturer.

          (b) Seller agrees to record and file, at its own expense, financing
statements (and continuation statements when applicable) with respect to the
Receivables in Additional Accounts existing on the Addition Date and thereafter
created meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in
such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of,
Buyer’s ownership of such Receivables, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of
each such financing statement or other evidence of such filing to Buyer within
ten (10) days of the Addition Date. Buyer shall be under no obligation
whatsoever to file such financing or continuation statements or to make any
other filing under the UCC in connection with such sale and assignment.

          (c) In connection with such assignment, Seller further agrees, at its own
expense, on or prior to the date of this Assignment, to indicate and cause
Master Servicer to indicate in the appropriate computer files that Receivables
created in connection with the Additional Accounts and designated hereby have
been conveyed to Buyer pursuant to the Agreement and this Assignment.

          (d) The parties hereto intend that the transfer of the Transferred
Property by Seller to Buyer shall constitute a sale by Seller to Buyer and not
a loan by Buyer to Seller secured by the Transferred Property. If, contrary to
the intent of the parties hereto, a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that any transaction provided for herein constitutes a loan and not a sale of
the Transferred Property, then this Assignment shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law and Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and
Seller hereby grants, to Buyer a security interest in and to all of Seller’s
right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Property.

     4. Acceptance by Buyer. Buyer hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all
right, title and interest to the property, existing on the Addition Date and
thereafter created, conveyed to Buyer pursuant to Section 3(a) of this
Assignment. Buyer further acknowledges that, prior to or simultaneously with
the execution and delivery of this Assignment, Seller delivered to it the
Account Schedule described in Section 2 of this Assignment.

     5. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller hereby represents and
warrants to Buyer as of the Addition Date:

          (a) This Assignment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of
Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be

Receivables Purchase and

Contribution Agreement

Exh. A-2

 

 

limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights in general and except as such enforceability may be limited
by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in
equity);

          (b) each of the Transferred Receivables satisfies the criteria for an
Eligible Receivable as of the Addition Cut-Off Date;

          (c) each Additional Account is, as of the Addition Cut-Off Date, an
Eligible Account;

          (d) no selection procedures believed by Seller to be materially adverse
to the interests of Buyer or any of its creditors were utilized in selecting
the Additional Accounts from the available Eligible Accounts;

          (e) as of the Addition Date, Seller is solvent;

          (f) the Account Schedule delivered pursuant to this Assignment is an
accurate and complete listing in all material respects of all the Accounts as
of the related Addition Cut-Off Date, and the information contained therein
with respect to the identity of such Accounts and the Transferred Receivables
existing in such Accounts, is true and correct in all material respects as of
the Addition Cut-Off Date;

          (g) the Agreement and this Assignment transfer ownership to Buyer of the
Transferred Property, and upon filing of the financing statements described
herein and, in the case of Transferred Receivables thereafter created, upon the
creation thereof, such ownership will be perfected and prior to all Liens
(other than Permitted Encumbrances) in the Transferred Property;

          (h) the Transferred Receivables constitute “accounts”, “chattel paper” or
“general intangibles” within the meaning of UCC Section 9-102;

          (i) immediately prior to the conveyance of the Receivables pursuant to
this Agreement, Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the
Receivables free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person
(other than Permitted Encumbrances); and

          (j) subject to Permitted Encumbrances, other than the transfer and
assignment to Buyer pursuant to this Assignment, Seller had not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of
the Transferred Receivables. Seller has not authorized the filing of and is
not aware of any UCC financing statements against Seller that included a
description of collateral covering the Transferred Receivables.

     6. Amendment of the Agreement. The Agreement is hereby amended to provide
that all references therein to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed
from and after the Addition Date to be a dual reference to the Agreement as
supplemented by this Assignment. Except as expressly amended hereby, all of
the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions of the
Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in
full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

     7. Counterparts. This Assignment may be executed in two or more
counterparts (and by different parties on separate counterparts), each of which
shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the
same instrument.

     8. GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

          (a) THIS ASSIGNMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL
RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL
OBLIGATIONS LAW, BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS
THEREOF) AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

          (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL
COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY SHALL HAVE
EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN
THEM PERTAINING TO THIS ASSIGNMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS ASSIGNMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY
APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF
THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY. EACH PARTY HERETO SUBMITS AND
CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY
SUCH COURT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY
MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON
CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE
RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH
ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER
PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT
ITS ADDRESS DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 7.1 OF THE AGREEMENT AND THAT
SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH PARTY’S
ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAIL,
PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY
PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

          (c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL
TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND
EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY

Receivables Purchase and

Exh. A-4

 

 

(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE
RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE
BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE
PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT
OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE
